In this episode, we welcome Senator Ron Johnson, who shares insights from his recent op-ed in the Wall Street Journal. We discuss the dysfunction in Washington regarding government funding and the need for automatic rolling two-week continuing resolutions to reduce uncertainty. Senator Johnson also addresses the potential link between acetaminophen and autism, emphasizing the importance of informed consent in healthcare decisions. Furthermore, we explore the evolving landscape of public health transparency and the impact of recent events on public trust in government.

Here they come again! Another far-right-wing mob, spurred on by Trump, is storming our US Capitol!Only, these are not uncouth MAGA marauders wearing buffalo horns, breaking in, and attacking Capital police. No, this is a very couth, richly-attired, well-mannered political mob laying siege on Congress. And look: Instead of fighting or fleeing, Republican lawmakers are holding the Capitol's doors wide open for this incursion! That's because this is a swarm of always-welcome corporate lobbyists and campaign funders. In particular, they're an army of global pesticide giants.Led by Bayer, the multibillion-dollar German biochemical conglomerate, they're demanding that Congress keep us commoners from interfering with their poisonous profiteering. Bayer reaps billions of dollars selling a killer pesticide named Roundup, which scientists increasingly consider a cause of cancer, especially in children. Thousands of afflicted families have filed major lawsuits holding Bayer responsible.Of course, Bayer honchos did the honorable thing. Ha! Just kidding. Instead, its lobbyists rushed to Trump and GOP congressional leaders, who – shhhh – quietly tucked a corporate “gotcha” into this month's must-pass budget bill. It would effectively hand retroactive immunity to chemical manufacturers, quashing all those lawsuits filed by families of Roundup victims. Sneaky, huh? Infuriated, grassroots leaders of MAHA (The “Make America Healthy Again” movement) say the Republican Party is being corrupted by false information from the pesticide companies.This is Jim Hightower saying… Actually, what's corrupting the Party's lawmakers is the gusher of campaign money they take from the poison pushers.

It was a dark and stormy night. So begins the long and increasingly convoluted prose of Edwards Bulwer-Lytton's best-known novel. Today the annual Bulwer-Lytton Contest asks contestants for fanciful first sentences that are similarly convoluted and over-the-top -- often with hilarious results. Plus: George Orwell's prescient novel 1984 gave us the terrifying image of Big Brother and helped popularize words like doublespeak and Orwellian. And is there a word for fallen snow while leaves still remain on the trees? Also: motor vs. engine, Capitol vs. capital, wannabe vs. wannabee, scrape acquaintance, a quiz about words that link other words, Tutivillis, skell gel, complementary alternation discourse constructions, and words for "eye boogers" in Hungarian, French, German, Portuguese, Turkish, Scots, and English.

Former State Senators Jeff Hayden and Amy Koch talked with Vineeta on The "Capitol Clash" on The WCCO Morning News

Jill Underly, Wisconsin's Superintendent of Public Instruction, didn't sugarcoat the current environment in her annual “State of Education” address Thursday at the Capitol — saying that this year, “the biggest schoolyard bully in our public schools is our own federal government.” Since Underly was recently reelected to a second four-year term, expect her to only become more outspoken about protecting children from bullies in our federal and state governments who seek to undermine public education.

In this episode of Bionic Planet, we delve into the pressing issue of climate change and its profound impact on coastal ecosystems, particularly focusing on blue carbon. We kick off the discussion by highlighting Indonesia's monumental decision to relocate its capital from Jakarta to Borneo due to the city sinking under the dual pressures of climate change and land subsidence. This serves as a stark reminder of the urgent need to address climate change, which is reshaping our world in ways that often go unnoticed. Our guest today is Dr. Steve Crooks, a leading expert in coastal ecosystems and blue carbon. He shares insights into the critical role that mangroves, salt marshes, and seagrasses play in mitigating climate change by sequestering carbon and acting as natural buffers against rising sea levels. We explore the unique characteristics of mangrove forests, which can sequester up to four times more carbon per hectare than traditional forests, and discuss the importance of preserving these ecosystems to combat climate change. Dr. Crooks also provides an overview of the blue carbon system, a term that has gained traction over the past decade. He explains how coastal ecosystems have historically been overlooked in climate discussions, with a predominant focus on terrestrial forests. However, recent developments, including the recognition of blue carbon in international climate agreements like the Paris Agreement, have opened new avenues for conservation and management. Throughout our conversation, we touch on various projects aimed at restoring and managing coastal ecosystems, including the Indus Delta Red Plus mangrove project in Pakistan, which aims to restore 350,000 hectares of degraded mangrove forest. Dr. Crooks emphasizes the importance of using verified methodologies to ensure the success of such initiatives, contrasting them with less rigorous tree-planting efforts that may not yield lasting benefits. As we navigate through the complexities of blue carbon, we also discuss the challenges and opportunities presented by marine protected areas and the potential for mariculture to contribute to carbon sequestration. Dr. Crooks highlights the need for integrated management strategies that consider both adaptation and mitigation in the face of climate change. In the second half of the episode, we take a virtual flyover of the Indus Delta project, where Dr. Crooks shares insights from his experiences and observations. We discuss the delicate balance between local livelihoods and environmental conservation, as well as the importance of community involvement in these initiatives. This episode serves as a call to action, urging listeners to recognize the significance of coastal ecosystems in the fight against climate change and to support efforts aimed at their preservation and restoration. Join us as we explore the interconnectedness of our planet's ecosystems and the vital role they play in creating a sustainable future.

Today's Headlines: The manhunt in Utah is over — 22-year-old Tyler Robinson confessed to killing Charlie Kirk after admitting it to his father and minister, who turned him in. Investigators haven't nailed down a motive, though his transgender roommate (and alleged former partner) told police Robinson thought Kirk's anti-trans rhetoric was hateful. That roommate has been cooperating, handing over texts that led police to the hidden rifle. Formal charges are expected tomorrow. Meanwhile, Congress is debating everything from Kirk lying in state at the Capitol to criminalizing jokes about his death, while FBI Director Kash Patel made headlines for tweeting bad info about the case… from a prime table at Rao's. Elsewhere: Maryland and Michigan officials got bomb threats (one credible, since cleared), Trump backed off sending the National Guard to Chicago but is pushing troops into Memphis, and Fox host Brian Kilmeade apologized for suggesting homeless people be killed by lethal injection. In Brazil, lawmakers are floating amnesty for ex-president Bolsonaro after his coup conviction — a move drawing sharp rebukes from Brazil and open threats from Trump and Marco Rubio. Trump also tried tying new Russia sanctions to NATO-wide tariffs on China. Across the pond, over 100,000 people joined a far-right rally in London, complete with Elon Musk ranting about wokeness, while Nepal's revolutionaries literally elected a new prime minister on Discord. Not to be left out, Albania's Prime MInister just appointed an AI “minister” named Diella to fight corruption as part of its EU membership bid.

Please note that Human Restoration Project is a 501(c)3 nonprofit organization and that this interview is not an endorsement of Morales as a candidate for office.Before Howie Morales became Lieutenant Governor of New Mexico, before he was ever a state senator, he was a teacher and a state-championship winning baseball coach in rural New Mexico. He also holds a Master's in bilingual education and a doctorate in curriculum and instruction. So it'd be difficult, it seems, to understand what he's accomplished in those elected positions except through the lens of his experience in the classroom. And he joins me to talk about that experience, how it informs his work and achievements in office, and the challenges New Mexico public school students, families, and teachers still face.

Today's Headlines: The FBI is in Utah chasing down leads in the Charlie Kirk assassination, releasing video of the suspected gunman's escape and offering $100K for tips. Meanwhile, Trump plans to award Kirk the Medal of Freedom, VP JD Vance escorted his casket, and MAGA lawmakers are pushing for a Capitol statue. Security scares piled on, too—Capitol Police cleared a bomb threat at DNC HQ and multiple HBCUs went into lockdown after threats, all later deemed not credible. Bloomberg dropped 18,000 Epstein emails showing his tight post-conviction ties with Ghislaine Maxwell, plus a spreadsheet of $1.8M in gifts and payments. Across the pond, Britain's ambassador to the U.S. got fired after Epstein's “birthday book” and emails revealed his buddy-buddy relationship with the disgraced financier. On the economy, grocery inflation hit the highest since 2022—coffee up 20%, beef up 16%, even bananas pricier—thanks in part to tariffs. And abroad, Brazil's ex-president Jair Bolsonaro was convicted of plotting a coup, including assassinations of Lula da Silva and others, and sentenced to 27 years. Unsurprisingly, he's crying “witch hunt” as his supporters riot.

Today's episode features two books that dissect very different case studies in politics: Kamala Harris' presidential campaign and the anti-abortion movement. First, in July 2024, Harris' presidential campaign launched like a rocket – but it seemed to stall shortly after. 2024 goes behind the scenes of the Harris team as they leapt into the race months before the election. In today's episode, NPR's Scott Detrow speaks with two of the book's authors, Tyler Pager and Isaac Arnsdorf, about how Harris' inner circle saw crucial campaign moments. Then, Carol Mason's new book From the Clinics to the Capitol breaks down the political strategy of the anti-abortion movement. In today's episode, she speaks with NPR's Sarah McCammon about ties between the movement and white nationalism.To listen to Book of the Day sponsor-free and support NPR's book coverage, sign up for Book of the Day+ at plus.npr.org/bookofthedayLearn more about sponsor message choices: podcastchoices.com/adchoicesNPR Privacy Policy

Send us a textEver wonder why some hearing healthcare professionals seem so passionate about advocacy while others shy away? Our conversation dives into the heart of building an advocacy culture that transforms not just legislation, but patient care itself.We explore the critical importance of starting advocacy education during AuD and SLP programs. As our guest, Dr. Megan Adams insightfully notes, "Informed students become informed professionals" who can make better clinical decisions and effectively advocate for patients throughout their careers. The good news? Universities don't need complete curriculum overhauls, even a few targeted class sessions can equip future professionals with the advocacy tools they'll need.Many clinicians and private practice owners hesitate to engage in advocacy because they don't see themselves as "political" or "persuasive" enough. We dispel this myth by revealing that most advocacy involves simply educating lawmakers about what audiologists do and why quality hearing care matters. Your expertise is your most powerful advocacy tool—no special personality required.The consequences of disengagement can be severe. We discuss alarming attempts in several states to replace professional licensure with simple registration systems, which threatens accountability and patient safety. Our guest shares a compelling case from Indiana where hearing aid sales were nearly completely deregulated until professionals rallied to educate legislators about the potential harm to patients.Perhaps most inspiring is the call to shift from defensive to offensive advocacy. Rather than constantly reacting to problematic legislation, proactive education of policymakers creates an environment where harmful bills are less likely to advance in the first place. When legislators understand hearing healthcare, they make better decisions.Whether you're a seasoned advocate or have never contacted a legislator, this conversation offers practical wisdom for making a difference. Listen now to discover how your voice—regardless of how loud you choose to be—can help shape the future of hearing healthcare.Connect with the Hearing Matters Podcast TeamEmail: hearingmatterspodcast@gmail.com Instagram: @hearing_matters_podcast Twitter: @hearing_mattasFacebook: Hearing Matters Podcast

Hour 3 of the Marc Cox Morning Show begins with Capitol Beat. Jim Carafano from the Heritage Foundation discusses the arrest of the suspect in the Charlie Kirk assassination, the quick law enforcement response that involved a pastor and the suspect's family, and what the case shows about deterring political violence. He also breaks down Qatar's complex diplomatic role and reports of an Israeli strike in Qatar in the broader context of regional conflicts. Congressman Dr. Bob Onder joins the conversation to reflect on Charlie Kirk's influence with young conservatives and students, calling him a martyr, and to discuss the dangers of heated political rhetoric. He also weighs in on Missouri's upcoming redistricting plan that could change the shape of his district and shares his thoughts on commemorating 9/11, while criticizing County Executive Sam Page's response. To close the hour, Scott on the Spot looks at the troubling trend of young men committing violent acts. Scott highlights factors that may be contributing, including the influence of social media, the spread of misinformation, mental health challenges, parental responsibility and the role of pharmaceuticals.

In this Capitol Beat segment, Congressman Bob Onder joins Marc Cox to discuss the latest political headlines. They talk about the tragic assassination of Charlie Kirk, with Onder describing Kirk as a martyr and reflecting on his influence with young people and on college campuses. The Congressman also addresses the impact of political rhetoric, noting how comparisons to Nazis and other inflammatory language can fuel violence. Later, he weighs in on Missouri's upcoming redistricting plan, which could reshape his own district, and shares thoughts on remembering 9/11 along with criticism of County Executive Sam Page's response.

Trump has declared a state of emergency in DC in his dictatorial zeal to militarize the streets of our nation's capital. However, the truth is that there IS NO EMERGENCY warranting Trump's declaration. In this podcast, Glenn speaks with someone who knows the streets of DC from policing there for 20 years. Former Metropolitan Police Officer Mike Fanone is not only one of the heroes who protected the U.S. Capitol on January 6th, 2021, but he also spent 20 years as an MPD officer serving the people of the District of Columbia. Mike and Glenn worked murder cases decades ago when he was a homicide prosecutor handling murder homicide cases in the courts of DC. Mike brings to the discussion an important perspective, as he was a DC cop when there was a LEGITIMATE crime emergency declaration in the 1990s. Mike explains how that situation was dramatically different from Trump's bogus emergency declaration.For nightly live Law Talks, please join Glenn on Substack: glennkirschner.substack.comIf you're interested in supporting our all-volunteer efforts, you can become a Team Justice patron at: / glennkirschner If you'd like to support Glenn and buy Team Justice and Justice Matters merchandise visit:https://shop.spreadshirt.com/glennkir...Check out Glenn's website at https://glennkirschner.com/Follow Glenn on:Threads: https://www.threads.net/glennkirschner2Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/glennkirschner2Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/glennkirsch...Bluesky: https://bsky.app/profile/glennkirschn...TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/glennkirschner2See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

It's Thursday, September 11th, A.D. 2025. This is The Worldview in 5 Minutes heard on 140 radio stations and at www.TheWorldview.com. I'm Adam McManus. (Adam@TheWorldview.com) By Jonathan Clark and Adam McManus Papua New Guinea held National Repentance Day Papua New Guinea held its National Repentance Day last month with prayer and worship gatherings across the country. The event began in 2007 to remember the nation's Christian heritage.  The island country in Oceania is home to over 10 million people, most of whom identify as Christian. Papua New Guinea amended its constitution in March to declare itself a Christian nation. Rev. Jack Urame leads the Lutheran Evangelical Church in the country. He spoke at the recent event, calling for genuine repentance. He said, “Repentance is a way of life, acknowledging God as the source of our life, our country, and our very existence.” Matthew 3:8 says, “Bear fruit in keeping with repentance.” Nearly half of Evangelicals are in Africa Researchers shared data on global evangelicalism at an event hosted by the World Evangelical Alliance last week. Dr. Gina Zurlo, editor of the World Christian Database, estimates that there are up to 937 million Evangelicals worldwide. Also, the center of evangelicalism has shifted. Nearly half of Evangelicals are in Africa, 26% are in Asia, and only 11% are in North America. The country with the largest Evangelical population is now China, not the United States.  Poland shot down suspected Russian drones Reuters reports that Poland shot down suspected Russian drones that entered its airspace yesterday.   Polish Prime Minister Donald Tusk said it was “the closest we have been to open conflict since World War II.” But he also said he had “no reason to believe we're on the brink of war.” Russia denied responsibility for the incident. This marks the first time a NATO member has fired shots since Russia invaded Ukraine in 2022. Conservative activist Charlie Kirk assassinated on college campus Charlie Kirk, the 31-year-old Christian founder of Turning Point USA, a massive conservative student organization on 3,500 college campuses, was fatally shot and killed on Wednesday, September 10th by an assassin at a Utah Valley University event in Orem, Utah, reports The Blaze.com. Justin Hickens was a witness, reports NBC News. HICKENS: “I was about 20 yards away on Charlie's left. There were thousands of people there. Unfortunately, there was no metal detectors. There was security by Charlie. But, you know, anybody could have shown up with whatever unfortunately. And I, I happen to kind of maneuver my way down close on the side. “The first interaction probably took about 10 minutes, it was a religious-related exchange. And then there was someone who stepped up, ironically, coincidentally, who asked the question about mass shootings. And about 60 to 90 seconds in, we just saw, we heard a big, loud shot. I saw a bunch of blood come out of Charlie. I saw his body kind of kick back and go limp, and everybody dropped to the ground. “Luckily, there were no other bullets sprayed into the crowd, because nobody was really able to go anywhere. It was just like a big open pavilion.” Kirk had 5.3 million followers on his X account and drew an audience of more than 500,000 monthly listeners to podcasts of his radio program, "The Charlie Kirk Show." He also authored or contributed to several books, including Time for a Turning Point: Setting a Course Toward Free Markets and Limited Government for Future Generations as well as The College Scam: How America's Universities Are Bankrupting and Brainwashing Away the Future of America's Youth, reports Reuters. Utah Republican Governor Spencer Cox characterized the shooting this way. COX: “I want to be very clear that this is a political assassination. We are endowed by our Creator with certain unalienable rights. First one of those is life. And today, a life was taken. “Charlie Kirk was, first and foremost, a husband and a dad to two young children. He was also very much politically involved, and that's why he was here on campus. Charlie believed in the power of free speech and debate to shape ideas and to persuade people.” While police initially arrested an older man as a suspect, he was subsequently released, reports The Daily Mail. Then, after FBI Director Kash Patel had a subject in custody, he was also released. The manhunt continues. Blaze Media CEO Tyler Cardon said, "Charlie Kirk was one of one. He was a gifted communicator, loving husband and father, visionary builder, and a faithful Christian. He was the most effective representative of conservative Christian values of his generation. A force of nature. I will miss him dearly." Conservative CNN commentator Scott Jennings said this. JENNINGS: “I'll be honest with you, I am in utter disbelief at this. I sat in this room last summer, the night they shot the president. And now they shot Charlie. I'm not sure it's safe to be an outspoken conservative walking around in America right now. “This nation is in desperate need of prayer and some kind of an intervention. What was Charlie doing? Making a speech, engaging in rhetoric, having a debate. That's the bedrock of our nation.” Kirk's appearance at Utah Valley University was the kick-off event for The American Comeback Tour in which students, who disagreed with him, were invited to come to the microphone at the “Prove Me Wrong” table and ask Kirk a question. Blaze TV host Sara Gonzales was incredulous. GONZALES: “Charlie is doing this tour. Why? Because he wants to have a respectful dialogue with people who don't agree with him. That's the entire intention. That's why he sits there and he invites people up to the mic. He doesn't have to have a mic there. He doesn't have to invite people with opposing opinions up there. “The literal intention behind all of this is to have a civil debate, regardless of your opinion. And apparently, in this country, you can't have a differing opinion from the woke radical ideology without someone attempting to kill you.” Turning Point USA, whose revenue exceeded $81 million in 2022, has not only influenced multiple American elections, but has also sparked difficult conversations, changed perspectives, and helped build new connections on college campuses. President Trump addressed the nation last night on September 10th. TRUMP:  “I am filled with grief and anger at the heinous assassination of Charlie Kirk on a college campus in Utah. Charlie inspired millions, and tonight, all who knew him and loved him are united in shock and horror. “Charlie was a patriot who devoted his life to the cause of open debate and the country that he loved so much, the United States of America. He's a martyr for truth and freedom, and there has never been anyone who was so respected by youth. “Charlie was also a man of deep, deep faith. And we take comfort in the knowledge that he is now at peace with God in Heaven. “This is a dark moment for America. Charlie Kirk traveled the nation, joyfully engaging with everyone interested in good faith debate. His mission was to bring young people into the political process, which he did better than anybody – ever -- to share his love of country and to spread the simple words of common sense. On campuses nationwide, he championed his ideas with courage, logic, humor and grace.” President Trump objected to how the Left and the media have demonized conservatives like Charlie Kirk. TRUMP: “It's long past time for all Americans and the media to confront the fact that violence and murder are the tragic consequence of demonizing those with whom you disagree day after day, year after year, in the most hateful and despicable way possible. For years, those on the radical Left have compared wonderful Americans, like Charlie, to Nazis and the world's worst mass murderers and criminals. This kind of rhetoric is directly responsible for the terrorism that we're seeing in our country today, and it must stop right now.” And Pastor Greg Laurie of Harvest Christian Fellowship shared this emotional reaction. LAURIE: “I'm sure many of you have heard the heartbreaking news. Charlie Kirk has died. This is an incredible loss. Charlie was such a courageous young man. “He was not only a bold and unwavering voice for Biblical truth in our culture, but also a devoted follower of Jesus Christ, a husband and a family man. He will be deeply missed. “As shocking as this news is, we can take comfort in knowing that Charlie is now in Heaven. The moment he took his last breath here on Earth, he took his first breath in the presence of the Lord. That is the hope we hold on to as believers: eternal life through faith in Jesus Christ.” Charlie Kirk is survived by his wife Erika, a former Miss Arizona USA beauty pageant winner, and their two children. Phillip Brown, a Christian businessman in Belton, Texas, said, “I pray that more young men will take his place and not be silenced.”   Hero of 9/11 remembered And finally, today marks 24 years since the tragic 9/11 attacks. In the early morning of September 11, 2001, 19 al-Qaeda terrorists hijacked four commercial airliners. The terrorists crashed two of the planes into the Twin Towers of the World Trade Center in New York City. The third plane crashed into the Pentagon in Arlington, Virginia. And the fourth plane crashed in a field in Pennsylvania as passengers fought back against the hijackers.  One of those passengers was a Christian man named Todd Beamer. A call from the plane's phone records how he recited the Lord's prayer and Psalm 23 before confronting the terrorists. The plane crashed, killing everyone on board but saving the hijackers intended target, perhaps the U.S. Capitol or the White House.  Beamer's last recorded words were “Are you guys ready? Let's roll.” It became a rallying cry in the wake of the attacks which left nearly 3,000 people dead. Psalm 23:4 says, “Even though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil, for You are with me; Your rod and Your staff, they comfort me.” Close And that's The Worldview on this Thursday, September 11th, in the year of our Lord 2025. Follow us on X or subscribe for free by Spotify, Amazon Music, or by iTunes or email to our unique Christian newscast at www.TheWorldview.com.  I'm Adam McManus (Adam@TheWorldview.com).

Last week most American media companies broadcast live coverage of a humble press conference organized by adult survivors of Jeffrey Epstein's sex trafficking criminal enterprise in front of the Capitol building.Fox News completely ignored it. The network spent most of its focus on Trump's threats to send National Guard troops into Chicago, RFK Jr.'s Senate hearing and what one Fox contributor described as the Democrat Party's death spiral.Women sharing their stories about suffering abuse at the hands of Jeffrey Epstein, a high-rolling billionaire with powerful friends and allies including the president was not a story that Fox News wanted to elevate. Fox producers did include a few short segments about Sydney Sweeney's jeans commercial - no really, they did that. This is a public episode.

Picture this: 3,800 tombstones stretched out near the U.S. Capitol. Each one represents a life lost to substances— not a number, not a statistic — but a son, a daughter, a sibling, a friend.In this episode of Grieving Out Loud, I sit down with Kimberly Douglas and Alexis Pleus, the women behind the Trail of Truth. For them, this mission is deeply personal. They're turning their grief into action, demanding that lawmakers pay attention while hundreds of thousands of Americans die every year from alcohol and drugs. And now, even as the crisis grows, treatment and prevention programs are on the chopping block. Most importantly, you'll hear what they believe needs to change to save lives.You can listen to Alexis's previous episode on Grieving Out Loud here. Send us a textBehind every number is a story of a life cut short, a family shattered, and a community devastated.They were...daughterssonsmothersfathersfriendswiveshusbandscousinsboyfriendsgirlfriends.They were More Than Just A Number.
