Over-regulation is not the solution to what ails the American banking system. Rigorous, responsible supervision is. The initial report on the 2023 debacle by former Vice Chairman for Supervision, Michael Barr, was an exercise in obfuscation and sophistry. The American people deserve supervisors who are not asleep at the wheel, and the incoming Chairman of the Federal Reserve should undertake a thorough investigation of the systemic and oversight failures that led to that disaster.

FBI was warned that Jeffrey Epstein was into child porn — but ignored it for 10 years, docs show   A former employee of late sex predator Jeffrey Epstein alerted the FBI that he was interested in “child pornography” and that he threatened to “burn her house down” decades before Epstein became an international fixation — but feds apparently did nothing. Source: nypost.com   If there was every anything about Trump, it would have been released before he reached the bottom of the escalator in 2015, the Comey FBI would have leaked it, and the Dems would have brought it up at some point while Biden was in office. But none of that happened. Why? Because Epstein leads to the Dems, and people like myself have been trying to warn the world about it for 10+ years.  https://twitter.com/WarClandestine/status/2002408563193368834?s=20  and it worked brilliantly. Could you imagine if in Trump's first term he released all this stuff about Epstein? The public would not have believed it, and the Dems/MSM would have claimed it was all politically motivated and fabricated by Trump. The only way this Epstein disclosure was going to work, was to get the public to beg for it. So that's what Trump did. https://twitter.com/MikeBenzCyber/status/2002450017647301084?s=20 https://twitter.com/WarClandestine/status/2002530633394934144?s=20   partner with Wolfe via the TerraMar project, which is also connected to the Clintons and the Clinton Foundation. What is Nathan Wolfe known for? Searching for bat coronaviruses in Ukraine via USAID Project PREDICT, via his biolab company, Metabiota, which was funded via Rosemont Seneca, which is partially owned by Hunter Biden. Russia accused Wolfe and his biolab company of creating genome-specific biological weapons in Ukraine. This situation has been addressed by RFK Jr. and Tulsi multiple times, and has been a major topic at the UN for over 3 years now. So Epstein had an interest in eugenics and he had financial/social connections to virologists who were making genome-specific biological weapons via USAID grants in Ukraine. Nathan Wolfe even directly thanked Epstein in his 2011 book “The Viral Storm: The Dawn of the New Pandemic Age” where Wolfe predicted the COVID pandemic 8 years before it happened… So what am I getting at? I think Epstein had plans to engage in ethnic cleansing/population control/genocide via biological weapon, and I think he had something to do with Covid. Epstein is at the epicenter of the Deep State empire. He was essentially a real life James Bond villain. The timing could not be worse. He and Hillary are in the middle of trying to fight subpoenas to testify in person to the House Oversight Committee on the Epstein matter and what they might know. They want to submit sworn statements. Republican Committee Chair James Comer (KY-1) wants to be able to question and cross-examine them in person.  DOGE Geopolitical U.S. Snatches Venezuela Oil Tanker in Dark‑Hour Strike on Narco‑Terror Funding In a stealth operation carried out before dawn on Dec. 20, the U.S. Coast Guard—working alongside the Department of War—seized an oil tanker last seen in the terrorist state of Venezuela.

This creates a rather bizarre official hypocrisy within the Zelenskyy regime.  The official position of Zelenskyy is that Eastern Ukraine will never be accepted as a part of the Russian federation. Zelenskyy has recently noted, with EU leadership support, that his government will never recognize Eastern Ukraine as part of the Russian federation.  However, this same region, approximately 20% of Ukraine, will not be permitted to participate in his controlled election. Essentially, any Ukraine resident who does not support Zelenskyy will not be permitted to vote in any election, if any election is ever permitted.  Additionally, Zelenskyy notes that “there is the practice of voting abroad,” however, any region not controlled by Zelenskyy cannot submit votes.

Kennedy and now additionally honors President Donald J. Trump, who has brought America back and saved the Trump-Kennedy Center. The Board's action is permissible under the statute and no legislation is necessary. The Board’s action does nothing to change the statutory title. Instead, the Board has–in line with longstanding Executive Branch practice–designated a new name. For example, The Office of the Federal Chief Information Officer, within the Office of Management & Budget, is designated by statute as the “Office of Electronic Government.” But it's long gone by the name “Office of the Federal Chief Information Officer” in official, public, and internal communications. Similarly, the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau is designated by statute as the “Bureau of Consumer Financial Protection.” But since the beginning, the agency has long gone by the name Consumer Financial Protection Bureau or CFPB in all official communications, correspondence with the Hill, titles and signage on its buildings. The “United States Institute of Peace” was established by statute but was renamed by the Department of State as the “Donald J. Trump United States Institute of Peace.” The Department of War was established as the “Department of Defense” by statute in 1947. Earlier this year, President Trump authorized the use of the name “Department of War” and the name is now etched on the Pentagon's building and in official correspondence and public communications. It is entirely fitting for the Board of Trustees to vote to add President Trump to the title so that this Center is now named The Donald J. Trump And The John F. Kennedy Memorial Center for the Performing Arts. President Trump has provided superb leadership at every level to save the Kennedy Center from financial ruin and wokeness, and to bring our national treasure to new heights!

In this episode of FreightWaves Daily, we analyze why the freight market has shifted into panic mode with rejection rates doubling and spot rates climbing significantly. We break down the perfect storm of weather, holiday demand, and regulatory crackdowns that are rapidly removing carrier capacity from the road. We then turn to the escalating constitutional showdown in California, where the state plans to reissue 17,000 non-domiciled CDLs despite federal warnings. The FMCSA has threatened to withhold highway funding or even decertify the state's entire commercial licensing program if officials proceed with the plan. In rail news, Union Pacific and Norfolk Southern have filed a historic application to create America's first transcontinental railroad, uniting western and eastern networks. This massive merger aims to convert interline lanes to single-line service, potentially shifting millions of truckloads off the highway and onto the tracks. The U.S. Postal Service is making a desperate pivot by opening its last-mile network to retailers and logistics companies in a bid to stave off insolvency. This strategy allows shippers to bid on volume and pricing for same-day or next-day delivery using the USPS infrastructure. Facing a 1,500% surge in organized crime, industry leaders are pressuring lawmakers to pass legislation that federalizes the fight against cargo theft. The proposed bill would lower the threshold for federal intervention and create a coordination center to track transnational criminal rings. Finally, we cover Maersk's recent test transit through the Red Sea and RPM Freight's strategic acquisition to enter the luxury vehicle transport market. Volatility is baked into the 2026 landscape, so tune in to understand how these shifts impact your supply chain planning. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

The trucking world is divided right now — not just over freight, diesel, or regulations, but over who gets to operate on American roads and under what conditions. HR5688, the Domiciled CDL Integrity Act, has set off a firestorm inside the industry. Some support it. Some believe it doesn't go far enough. Others think it goes too far. In this episode of The Long Haul, Adam sits down with Lewie Pugh, Executive Vice President of OOIDA, to dig into what the bill actually says, why OOIDA supports it, and how misinformation and social media outrage have reshaped the conversation around non-domiciled CDLs, immigration status, and public safety. We talk about the difference between protecting American drivers and weaponizing fear, the impact of public perception on policy, and why organizations like OOIDA are now facing more pressure than ever to communicate clearly, transparently, and directly with the people they represent. If you've been confused, frustrated, or fired up by this debate, this episode gives clarity — straight from the source. ⁠Follow The Long Haul Podcast⁠ ⁠Other FreightWaves Shows⁠ Learn more about your ad choices.

Washington state's Department of Licensing says it mistakenly issued nearly 700 commercial driver's licenses over seven years to noncitizens who did not qualify under federal rules. The problem drew national attention after truck driver Harjinder Singh, who wrongly received a standard CDL from Washington, allegedly made an illegal U‑turn in Florida and killed three people. U.S. Transportation Secretary Sean Duffy is now threatening to pull highway funding from states with similar errors and is pushing tighter visa limits on who can drive trucks and buses, prompting legal challenges from King County and others. Washington has halted processing non‑domiciled CDLs while it reviews the 685 active licenses in question and prepares a response to a Florida lawsuit at the U.S. Supreme Court. https://www.clarkcountytoday.com/news/wa-erred-in-granting-hundreds-of-commercial-drivers-licenses-to-noncitizens/#UnitedStates #WashingtonState #CDL #Trucking #Immigration #USDOT #HighwaySafety #LicensingErrors #WashingtonStateStandard #FederalFunding

10 Roads Express will shut down operations and end its USPS contracts. This wind-down represents the largest trucking failure since Yellow, removing thousands of trucks from the road following severe revenue losses. We also examine the stark divergence in global shipping, where Asia-US container rates fell 32% in a single week due to overcapacity. Conversely, Asia-Europe rates have surged effectively by 40% as carriers navigate complex security issues in the Red Sea. On the regulatory front, the DOT is cracking down on safety standards by kicking 3,000 truck driver trainers off its registry for failing to meet new federal requirements. Additionally, the FMCSA has introduced a new ELD approval overhaul to combat the "ghost driver" fraud that contributed to fatal crashes. Finally, we discuss the confusion surrounding commercial licensing after a federal court intervened in the legal battle regarding non-domiciled CDLs. While the court stayed the FMCSA's emergency rule, uncertainty remains as many states are reluctant to issue credentials to the 200,000 affected drivers. Learn more about your ad choices.

Today, we'll break down the real story behind short-term load surges, tightening capacity, and why the usual holiday bump isn't showing up this year.  With truck posts down 26% and long-term demand still soft, we're heading into 2026 with stable pricing, flat margins, and a freight market that rewards consistency and data-driven strategy. Let's also discuss how falling truckload rates are reshaping the RFP process, why keeping 2026 pricing level with 2025 is the smartest move, how tech-driven automation is going to transform bid cycles sooner than most people think, the regulatory shake-ups around foreign CDLs and the potential impact on both trucking capacity and U.S. agriculture, and the need federalized CDL standards to protect safety without crippling the workforce!   Resources / References https://www.joc.com/article/low-truckload-rates-putting-pressure-on-traditional-rfp-process-6120771 https://www.freightwaves.com/news/crackdown-on-foreign-truckers-threatens-us-farm-labor

The current intersection of federal regulation and enforcement is creating significant market risk, forcing carriers to exit and fundamentally tightening liability for both carriers and the shippers who hire them. The immediate shockwave comes from California, where the cancellation of 17,000 non-domiciled CDLs—over 9% of the state's for-hire carrier base—is expected to cause substantial capacity constraints and firm up outbound freight rates, signaling national enforcement scrutiny. This episode unpacks the crucial precedent set by California's AB5 enforcement action, which resulted in an $868,000 penalty against three companies, including shipper Costco and 3PL Ryder Last Mile. Ryder and Costco were found jointly liable with the carrier for exercising "direct or indirect control" over drivers, demonstrating that managing drivers like employees results in liability like an employer. We debate whether the current market slump is purely demand-driven or if regulatory fear is driving non-compliant carriers out, causing spot rates to slowly "melt up" despite weak volumes. Further regulatory focus is evident as the FMCSA launches a major study with 60 carriers to analyze the link between driver work schedules, hours-of-service, and crash risk, aiming to inform future HOS restrictions. Shifting focus to logistics investment, the USPS reported a massive $9 billion loss but is executing an urgent, long-term modernization push, including investing nearly $20 billion in automated sorters and new vehicles to attract parcel volume. Finally, we examine the unanimous industry consensus that autonomous trucking is inevitable, with the rapid "J-curve of adoption" expected to hit between 2035 and 2040 as labor and regulatory risks accelerate investment in driverless technology.

Three major companies—Mega Nice Trucking, Ryder Last Mile, and Costco Wholesale Corp—are facing what is likely the first significant enforcement action of California's AB5 regulation in the trucking industry, resulting in an $868,000 fine. The California Labor Commission cited the trio for contractor misclassification and resulting wage theft, finding that Ryder and Costco exercised both direct and indirect control over delivery drivers, thereby establishing a joint employer relationship with the carrier.  The trucking industry continues to monitor the fight over the Department of Transportation's non-domiciled Commercial Driver's License rules following the cancellation of 17,000 CDLs in California. Although California Governor Gavin Newsom and Transportation Secretary Sean Duffy are engaged in a heated public dispute over the cause, industry experts warn that the evolving enforcement signals new restrictions that will significantly impact carrier liability and freight capacity across the country, with analysts expecting more CDL cancellations in the near future.  A group of Attorneys General from nine states is urging the Surface Transportation Board to conduct a "thorough and exacting" review of the proposed merger between Union Pacific and Norfolk Southern. These AGs, representing GOP states, argue that the consolidation of rail services will compromise national security and stifle competition, leading to exacerbated existing problems such as higher costs and lower reliability for key strategic American industries.

What's really driving sustainable freight pricing right now? And how are data, regulation, and carrier relationships reshaping the industry heading into 2026? Let's start this week by discussing why sticking to a disciplined, data-backed pricing strategy is the true path to long-term lane ownership and stronger carrier partnerships, why volume is the profit driver, and how brokers can win by removing emotion from their pricing decisions. Also hear some insights about the back solicitation clauses and how overreaching contracts destroy trust instead of building it,  the 17,000 potentially invalid CDLs coming out of California, and the need for uniform national standards to protect road safety and supply chain security!   Resources / References https://www.overdriveonline.com/business/article/15771476/broker-threatens-to-sue-trucking-company-over-back-solicitation https://www.freightwaves.com/news/california-cdl-fight-signals-national-enforcement-scrutiny

While the Port of Long Beach saw container volumes drop significantly—imports declined 17.6% and total TEUs fell 14.9% in October 2025 compared to the previous year's record-setting month—the hub remains ahead of its 2024 all-time annual cargo record pace through the first 10 months of 2025. Port officials are anticipating that American consumers will likely see ⁠price escalation⁠ on goods in the coming months as shippers are expected to pass along the costs of ongoing tariffs and trade policies. In trucking, a major regulatory shift has been halted as the U.S. Court of Appeals for the D.C. Circuit ⁠temporarily stayed the FMCSA's interim final rule⁠ heavily restricting non-domiciled commercial driver's licenses. This administrative stay, ordered pending a review of a lawsuit filed by an affected driver, means state agencies can presumably resume issuing and renewing these non-domiciled CDLs. Truckload carrier Werner Enterprises stated at an investor conference that it has hit a baseline capacity and sees "no retreat" from its current dedicated fleet size, despite calling the current downcycle the worst he has seen in 35 years in the industry. Werner's CEO asserted that the duration of the downturn and rising trucking accident rates across the industry may be linked to ⁠lower standards on CDL issuance and driver schools⁠, which have contributed to excess capacity.

The Great Freight Recession continues its relentless purge in the carrier sector, claiming Illinois-based VIB Trans, a 29-truck carrier, as the ⁠latest casualty to file for Chapter 11 amid deeply depressed spot rates and relentlessly high operating costs⁠. This pain is accelerating due to an 18% drop in freight volumes coupled with immense overcapacity, driven by 310,000 new trucks and 200,000 new CDLs added to the system since 2019. Strategic experts are anticipating the ⁠Largest capacity purge in history coming⁠ as new regulations tighten enforcement around non-domiciled CDLs and ELP requirements. This regulatory squeeze could eliminate up to 600,000 active drivers from the system, potentially leading to sharp volatility spikes and market rationalization that ultimately benefits surviving carriers with higher pay and increased freight rates. While carriers fight for survival, the brokerage world is thriving, ⁠C.H. Robinson again is strong, and Wall Street throws roses⁠ after the company posted extremely strong third-quarter performance, including a 22.6% increase in income from operations. C.H. Robinson's core North American Surface Transport segment successfully grew combined truckload and LTL volume by 3%, demonstrating significant market share growth against a declining industry benchmark. In strategic updates, ⁠UPS is reversing its costly insourcing strategy for low-budget shipments⁠, tentatively agreeing to UPS, Postal Service to reunite for delivery of low-budget shipments via the USPS last-mile network. This reversal acknowledges that UPS's internal cost structure struggled to compete, especially after Ground Saver volume plummeted nearly 33% year-over-year. Internationally, the U.S. and China suspended ⁠punitive reciprocal fees on docking ships for one year amid trade talks⁠, which were originally imposed to revive U.S. shipbuilding. Plus, we cover immediate executive changes at CSX as CEO Steve Angel switches up leadership, ⁠naming Kevin Boone CFO and promoting Mary Clare Kenny to Chief Commercial Officer⁠.

The freight market is at a "pivotal moment" as shifting industry narratives meet long-overdue regulatory action and the harsh realities of a capacity glut. Hear how the ATA executed a stunning tactical retreat on their decades-long "truck driver shortage" claim, now admitting the problem is a "shortage of quality drivers" rather than quantity. This retreat coincides with federal regulators moving to fix a self-created crisis: the DOT issued an emergency rule restricting non-domiciled CDLs that were improperly granted to at least 200,000 non-U.S. residents since March 2019. This massive influx of drivers fueled the "Great Freight Recession," yet real inflation-adjusted truck driver wages have only increased minimally since 2010. We examine the brutal financial impact of overcapacity, including Pamt Corp.'s fourth consecutive quarterly net loss and its unsustainable 106.7% adjusted operating ratio for its truckload unit. Conversely, Landstar System's mixed results showed strong flatbed trends and the first sequential increase in its exclusive carrier base since 2022, potentially signaling a slow market turn as regulatory changes threaten to remove 200,000 owner-operators from the pool.

A deadly semi-truck crash puts a spotlight on California's controversial policies — and this episode peels back the chain of decisions that may have helped create it. The host walks listeners through the horrifying dashcam footage of a rig plowing into stopped cars, the criminal charges against the driver, and a federal audit that reportedly found 62,000 commercial driver's licenses issued to people without permanent legal status. We investigate claims that state policies are skipping federally required Level 1 inspections, allowing non-English speakers to pass through safety checks, and how work-permit and sanctuary rules may be enabling dangerous drivers to get behind the wheel. Interviews, audio clips, and a conversation about accountability, liability, and public safety round out this urgent episode.

From deadly semi-truck crashes caused by illegal immigrant drivers with improperly issued CDLs in California to the horrifying cartel crimes of La Diablo, Tara dives into the shocking consequences of federal and state policies under Biden and Newsom. The episode also examines the rise of extremist figures within the Democratic Party, including candidates openly embracing violent or Nazi-linked imagery, and what this signals about political radicalization. With hidden-camera insights, federal audits, and national security intelligence, Tara unpacks how lawlessness — both on American highways and within political circles — is escalating with deadly results.

On this episode of ABL Live, we're talking the NBA gambling scandal which could rock all of sports and the sports betting industry down to the core, President Trump's $250 million ballroom concept images revealed, Kamala Harris hinting at running for President again in 2028, a federal audit that says California has issued 62,000 CDLs to illegal aliens, and much more!
