Published report: _President Trump attacked global immigration and efforts to fight climate change during an address to the United Nations, claiming they were among the world's top threats to Western civilization.

Both immigration and their suicidal energy ideas will be the death of Western Europe.” “I'm telling you that if you don't get away from the ‘green energy' scam, your country is going to fail. If you don't stop people that you've never seen before that you have nothing in common with, your country is going to fail.” _ President Donald Trump, speech delivered at the United Nations, September 23, 2025 America's eyes are focused on state-wide elections in New Jersey and Virginia, with governors' races and the legislatures which will determine key policies including economic and social issues.

Join America's Roundtable (https://americasrt.com/) radio co-hosts Natasha Srdoc and Joel Anand Samy with the Honorable Benjamin S. Carson, Sr. M.D., one of America's most principled leaders, a brilliant mind, and a champion of freedom. Dr. Ben Carson is the founder and chairman of the American Cornerstone Institute, the 17th U.S. Secretary of the Department of Housing and Development, and former director of pediatric neurosurgery at Johns Hopkins Hospital. The conversation focuses on: * Domestic and foreign policy initiatives with a review on the successes of the second Trump Administration. * The importance of faith, family and patriotism in protecting our freedoms in America. * The ills of marxism and socialism and their manifestation in America. * Expanding homeownership and reigniting the American Dream. * Affirming Israel's sovereignty and protecting Jewish communities in the West. Our conversation also highlights Dr. Ben Carson's must-read book "The Perilous Fight: Overcoming Our Culture's War on the American Family." Quote from Dr. Ben Carson's book, "The Perilous Fight": "The perilous fight" was penned by Francis Scott Key in the midst of a most difficult and pivotal moment in our nation's history when twenty British ships bombarded Fort McHenry from the Baltimore Harbor. It was on the morning of September 14, 1814 that Francis Scott Key wrote about the ramparts, and the land of the free and the home of the brave which inspired a nation and became a rallying victory call. “The perilous fight—those words arrest my attention whenever I place my right hand over my heart and face the flag at the playing of our national anthem. They are a reminder that America was born in a crucible of fire. Freedom was not given freely but had to be fought for and defended.” ~ Dr. Ben Carson Biography | Dr. Ben Carson In 1973, Ben Carson graduated from Yale University. He went on to receive his M.D. from the University of Michigan Medical School. At the age of 33, Dr. Carson became the chief of pediatric neurosurgery at Johns Hopkins Hospital, making him the youngest major division director in the hospital's history. This would be among an extensive list of outstanding firsts for Dr. Carson. Dr. Carson's accomplishments have earned him a place in medical history. He performed the first and only successful separation of craniopagus (Siamese) twins joined at the back of the head in 1987. He also performed the first fully successful separation of type-2 vertical craniopagus twins in 1997 in South Africa. In his career, Dr. Carson became a professor of neurosurgery, oncology, plastic surgery, and pediatrics at the Johns Hopkins School of Medicine, and directed pediatric neurosurgery at the Johns Hopkins Children's Center for over 29 years. In 2016, Dr. Carson accepted the position of Secretary of Housing and Urban Development under the Trump administration. After completing his tenure as the 17th Secretary of the Department of Housing and Urban Development in 2021, Dr. Carson founded the American Cornerstone Institute. This organization is focused on fighting for the principles that have guided him through life and that make this country great: faith, liberty, community and life. Dr. Carson and his wife, Candy Carson, co-founded the Carson Scholars Fund, which recognizes young people of all backgrounds for exceptional academic and humanitarian accomplishments. The organization has awarded more than 11,000 scholarships and paid out more than $8.9 million in scholarships. The Carson Scholars Fund is currently operating in 50 states and the District of Columbia, and since its founding, has installed more than 270 Ben Carson Reading Rooms around the country. In 2021, Dr. Carson founded the American Cornerstone Institute (ACI), a conservative think tank centered around advancing policies that promote “faith, liberty, community, and life.” Dr. and Mrs. Carson reside in Florida. They are the proud parents of three sons and three daughters-in-law, and blessed grandparents of eight grandchildren.

Mike and Franklin discuss their recent trip to central Virginia. Stops include Charlottesville, the Blue Ridge Tunnel, and the greatest of all... Buc-ee's.

On March 2, 1996, 25-year-old Alicia Showalter Reynolds set out before breakfast, pointing her white Mercury south from Baltimore toward Charlottesville for a shopping day with her mom. Somewhere along U.S. Route 29 in Central Virginia—near Culpeper—that ordinary drive met an extraordinary danger, the kind that hides in plain sight on the shoulder of a busy highway.By nightfall, Alicia hadn't arrived. Her car was found on the roadside; witnesses remembered a clean-cut man in a dark pickup offering “help.” In this episode, we walk the Route 29 corridor minute by minute, piecing together what Alicia saw, what bystanders noticed, and how a roadside “good Samaritan” ruse may have masked a predator.Anyone with information is asked to call the Virginia State Police Culpeper Division toll-free at 1-800-572-2260, the Bureau of Criminal Investigation toll-free at 1-888-300-0156, or you can also email them at bci-culpeper@vsp.virginia.gov.If you are interested in bonus content for our show or in getting some Coffee and Cases swag, please consider joining Patreon.

When your partner's body changes — whether from weight gain, shifting eating habits, or perimenopause — it can bring up some of the trickiest conversations in long-term relationships. In this episode of The Partnership Podcast, Lauren and Trey share a vulnerable look at how they navigate these sensitive moments with honesty, compassion, and growth.Trey tells the story of skipping Lauren's favorite Hazy IPAs on a Sam's Club run after a recent conversation about her body changes. Was this a supportive choice, or a potential “land mine”? Together, they unpack how unrequested service can backfire, drawing from Dr. Betty Martin's Wheel of Consent and Alison Armstrong's Celebrating Partnership.Lauren shares her desire to resist cultural obsession with “skinny” while entering her 40s with self-love, compassion, and education — not self-judgment. Trey reflects on breaking old patterns and celebrating small outward shifts that actually mean big relational change. They also dive into Lauren's latest work on the roles of Liars & Lie Invitees in partnership, showing how truth-telling and conscious communication can transform long-term dynamics.This episode is both tender and practical, offering couples real insight into what not to do — and better ways to support each other through body changes, health goals, and the realities of aging together.Want more tools for navigating tricky conversations in partnership?

On this episode of The Partnership Podcast, Trey asks Lauren about the career-focused women she works with—are they struggling to find partners, and why? Lauren's answer may surprise you (and you'll have to listen to see if she chose the unfiltered or the compassionate version).Together, Trey and Lauren explore the dating challenges ambitious women face, why many men resist accountability, and how women and men often enter coaching from very different motivations. Lauren shares a tearful reflection on what Trey provides her—calling him her “soft place to land”—and why deep support, joy, and emotional presence matter just as much as great sex.She also celebrates the men she does get to work with—those hungry for tools to love women better—and why this feels deeply restorative and healing. To close, Lauren offers a trauma-informed perspective: that many men's avoidant behaviors are safety-seeking strategies learned in childhood.This conversation reframes what some call “high-value women” and clarifies what truly matters in creating the kind of partnership career-focused women are longing for.If you're a man ready to step into the kind of relationship women deeply desire, request a free consult today: www.sexedforyou.com/freeconsultAbout Us: Lauren and Trey are partners living in Central Virginia where Lauren owns and operates, SEX ED FOR YOU.
