Elon Musk, until very recently one of the strongest backers of President Donald J. Trump, has announced his intention to form a “third-party” opposition to what he refers to as the GOP/Democrat “uni-party”—and, indeed, just today Musk filed with the Federal Election Commission to form the newly created “American Party.” Might it be more difficult to get a third-party off the ground than Trump envisions? What would the American Party stand for that is not already largely captured by the MAGA wing of the Republican party?  To the extent the American Party pursues particular political strategies, is it one likely to be embraced by the American people?Also, what are the likely political implications of an aggressive third-party in American politics? Is it likely to lead to an America more in line with the desires and aspirations of MAGA, or the desires and aspirations of the Democrats?  What has happened in the past when aggressive third-parties have entered the American political process?Finally, and most important, of the various political options on the table, is the launch of this American Party the choice most aligned with America's national interests, especially when we already have on the table the option of aggressively advancing MAGA in the displacement of RINO elements of the Republican party? The #1 guide for understanding when using force to protect yourself is legal.

The county is back in the hands of Democrats. Imperial Beach Mayor Paloma Aguirre is set to fill the vacant seat on the San Diego County Board of Supervisors. The county has so much going on – there are big questions around the sewage crisis, homelessness, housing, budget, immigration. The list goes on and on – and South County reporter Jim Hinch joins us today to dish on what Aguirre’s victory means for the direction of the county.

Getting fit takes willpower. Earning a degree takes determination. Reaching your career goals takes hard work. In short, success takes commitment.And the same is true when it comes to your finances. Today, we'll explore what changes when you commit to managing money God's way.You've heard the saying, “Things worth doing are worth doing well.” And when it comes to your finances, there are certainly some things worth doing—like saving for the future, creating a spending plan, paying down debt, giving generously, and living with honesty and integrity.If you want to see real results in any area of life, it's going to take effort—sometimes a lot of it. And that's true for your financial life, too. Following biblical financial principles takes determination, planning, patience, and even sacrifice. So, why is it worth the effort?Because while commitment requires something of us, it also gives something to us. When we live with faith and integrity in our finances, we experience peace, contentment, and even joy. It's not just about doing the right thing—it's about being transformed more and more into who God wants us to be.Joining God in His WorkWhen you honor Him with your finances, you join in His work, bringing mercy and blessing to others. And as you experience His provision personally, your faith deepens, and your story becomes a testimony to encourage others.The Bible is filled with examples of faithful commitment. Hebrews chapter 11 is sometimes called the “Hall of Faith” because it highlights men and women who trusted God, even when they couldn't see the outcome. Abraham, Moses, Rahab—they placed their hope in God's promises before Christ ever came.But the ultimate example of commitment is Jesus Himself. Hebrews 12:2 says:“For the joy set before him, he endured the cross, scorning its shame, and sat down at the right hand of the throne of God.”A Savior who gave everything to redeem us is more than worthy of our full devotion in return.Faith lies at the heart of such a commitment, especially when it comes to finances. Hebrews 11:1 defines faith as:“Confidence in what we hope for and assurance about what we do not see.”That means trusting God's promises, even when circumstances feel uncertain.Who's Really in Charge?So, committing to manage money God's way starts with faith, but it also requires surrender. That means asking: who's really in charge—me, or the Lord?In Matthew 6:24, Jesus says:“No one can serve two masters. Either you will hate the one and love the other, or you will be devoted to the one and despise the other. You cannot serve both God and money.”That's a heavy reminder for all of us. We can't be fully committed to both God and money. One will always take priority, and when it's not the Lord, we will feel that tension.Here are a few honest questions to consider:Do financial worries consume your thoughts?Do you find yourself chasing more and more money, more stuff, more status?Is your sense of security tied to your job or investments?If you answered yes to any of those, you're not alone. Many of us wrestle with divided hearts. It's easy to lean on what we can see, especially when life feels uncertain. But money, career, or comfort can never offer the lasting peace only God provides.Choosing to follow God's financial principles takes daily trust and perseverance. Galatians 6:9 offers this encouragement:“Let us not grow weary of doing good, for in due season we will reap, if we do not give up.”Another gift of commitment is the encouragement we receive from God's people. You weren't meant to follow Jesus—or manage your finances—on your own.Colossians 3:12–15 paints a powerful picture of Christian community:“As God's chosen people, holy and dearly loved, clothe yourselves with compassion, kindness, humility, gentleness and patience… Let the peace of Christ rule in your hearts, since as members of one body you were called to peace.”If you've ever felt like giving up on your budget or putting off your giving goals, you're not alone—we all face struggles.

I've received conflicting information—can I delay Medicare enrollment and still have both my employer and I contribute to my HSA?I'm a 73-year-old widow and have been retired since 2017.

This begins the new series: Loosening Your Grip.What if the very thing you're trying to control is what's actually keeping you stuck? In this episode, I'm sharing a really personal story. Years of chronic pain, self-reliance, and striving brought me face-to-face with a hard truth: I'm not in charge. And that's a good thing. We'll talk about why control feels so tempting, what happens when we hit our limit, and how real power begins when we stop white-knuckling life and start clinging to God. This is about loosening your grip, not giving up. You'll walk away with a new perspective on what it means to trust and why the limp you're walking with might just be the very evidence that God is blessing you.Relationship Reinvention is a self-paced experience for couples who want to reset patterns, reconnect emotionally, and grow together with intention.Walk through 12 meaningful sessions at your own pace—with guided conversations, practical tools, and lifetime access.⚡️Join by June 30 and get 3 bonus live coaching calls with Jill.⚡️

Summary When you're promoted into management, the shift can feel like you're suddenly in charge, but with very little guidance. In this episode, Andy chats with executive coach and author James Turk about his insightful book The Giving Game: A Manager's Playbook for the First Year of Leadership. James brings decades of experience helping leaders navigate that tricky transition from individual contributor to team leader. They explore why being a subject-matter expert doesn't automatically make you an effective leader, and why the first 45 days in a new role are so critical. James shares practical advice for building a strong team climate, coaching instead of controlling, and why clarity is one of the greatest gifts you can offer as a manager. Plus, they discuss what new managers often miss about feedback and delegation (and how to avoid those traps). Whether you're newly promoted or preparing to step into a leadership role, this conversation is filled with actionable insights. If you're looking for real-world advice on how to lead when you're suddenly in charge, this episode is for you! Sound Bites “The number one reason employees don't do what they're supposed to do is that they don't know what it is.” “Leadership isn't about being the smartest person in the room. It's about creating the conditions for others to succeed.” “Climate is how it feels to work for you, and as a leader, that's something you have the power to shape every day.” “Coaching isn't fixing the past. It's investing in someone's future performance.” “Most people, when they're promoted, don't have the skills, and they're afraid to admit it.” “If I want people to do the work, they need to know what's expected of them.” Chapters 00:00 Introduction 01:57 Start of Interview 02:06 What early experiences shaped how you think about leadership? 05:30 Why call it 'The Giving Game'? 08:39 What would you coach me to do differently in my first 45 days as a new manager? 11:01 Why focus on climate instead of culture? 15:57 How do we shift teams from renter mode to ownership? 20:18 Why do so many managers think we're being clear? 21:42 How can leaders delegate in a way that builds ownership? 22:47 When did you make a delegation mistake because of lack of clarity? 25:25 What's an example of feedback that changed your career? 27:59 What do you think about the 'feedback sandwich' technique? 29:44 How can these ideas help parents at home? 32:10 End of Interview 32:31 Andy Comments After the Interview 36:15 Outtakes Learn More You can learn more about James Turk and his work at TheTurkGroup.com/TheGivingGameBook.

Sean “Diddy” Combs has been acquitted of the most serious sex trafficking and racketeering charges he was facing, but has been convicted of transporting individuals for prostitution across state lines. Despite avoiding life sentences, Combs faces up to 10 years in jail, though legal experts predict a shorter term given time served and prison conditions.

Discover why there may be an interest rate cut in September, or possibly, July. Are you investing well for financial freedom...or not? Financial freedom is a combination of money, compounding and time (my McT Formula). How well you invest, makes a huge difference to your financial future and lifestyle. If you only knew where to invest for the long-term, what a difference it would make, because the difference between investing $100k and earning 5 percent or 10 percent on your money over 30 years, is the difference between it growing to $432,194 or $1,744,940, an increase of over $1.3 million dollars. Your compounding rate, and how well you invest, matters!  INTERESTED IN THE BE WEALTHY & SMART VIP EXPERIENCE? - Invest in stock ETFs, private equity and digital assets for potential high compounding rates - Asset allocation model with ticker symbols and % to invest -Monthly LIVE investment webinars with Linda, with Q & A -Private VIP Facebook group with daily interaction -Weekly investment commentary from Linda -Optional 1-on-1 tech team support for digital assets -Join, pay once, have lifetime access!

A question I'm often asked is, “Why do physicians charge so much?” There's no easy answer, as there isn't a fixed price list for medical services. Due to the healthcare system's complexity and the absence of set prices, providers are largely free to charge what the market will bear. However, can there be consequences for […] The post Can physicians charge whatever they want to Insurance Payers? appeared first on Terry Fletcher Consulting, Inc..

Sean “Diddy” Combs faces significant difficulty overcoming the Mann Act charges due to the sheer volume and consistency of evidence presented at trial showing he orchestrated interstate travel for the purpose of prostitution. Witness after witness testified that Combs regularly flew in male escorts—referred to in court as dancers or “entertainers”—to participate in so-called “freak-offs,” often involving his partners Cassie Ventura and “Jane.” Multiple former employees confirmed that they were tasked with arranging these flights, booking hotels, and managing logistics, all under Combs's direct instruction. One dancer testified that he was flown in on 8 to 12 separate occasions to have sex with Cassie, and that Combs would often watch or record the encounters. These admissions, paired with digital evidence such as text messages and payment records, established a clear pattern of interstate travel tied to commercial sex acts—meeting the statutory criteria for Mann Act violations.What makes the Mann Act charges particularly dangerous for Combs is that they do not require proof of coercion—only that someone was transported across state lines for the purpose of prostitution. The prosecution's evidence showed that Combs not only arranged these movements but paid for them and facilitated the sexual encounters once travel was complete. Unlike the more nuanced sex trafficking charges, which hinge on consent and coercion, the Mann Act offenses are legally simpler and were supported by hard logistics—flight itineraries, financial transactions, and testimony from both staff and participants. Even if the jury wavers on whether Combs's partners were coerced, they may still find him guilty under the Mann Act based solely on the undeniable fact that he used his resources to transport people for sex. As a result, these may be the hardest charges for the defense to defeat—and they carry serious prison time even without convictions on the other counts.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:Experts say where Sean 'Diddy' Combs 'might be cooked' in sex trafficking trial | Fox News

Sean “Diddy” Combs faces significant difficulty overcoming the Mann Act charges due to the sheer volume and consistency of evidence presented at trial showing he orchestrated interstate travel for the purpose of prostitution. Witness after witness testified that Combs regularly flew in male escorts—referred to in court as dancers or “entertainers”—to participate in so-called “freak-offs,” often involving his partners Cassie Ventura and “Jane.” Multiple former employees confirmed that they were tasked with arranging these flights, booking hotels, and managing logistics, all under Combs's direct instruction. One dancer testified that he was flown in on 8 to 12 separate occasions to have sex with Cassie, and that Combs would often watch or record the encounters. These admissions, paired with digital evidence such as text messages and payment records, established a clear pattern of interstate travel tied to commercial sex acts—meeting the statutory criteria for Mann Act violations.What makes the Mann Act charges particularly dangerous for Combs is that they do not require proof of coercion—only that someone was transported across state lines for the purpose of prostitution. The prosecution's evidence showed that Combs not only arranged these movements but paid for them and facilitated the sexual encounters once travel was complete. Unlike the more nuanced sex trafficking charges, which hinge on consent and coercion, the Mann Act offenses are legally simpler and were supported by hard logistics—flight itineraries, financial transactions, and testimony from both staff and participants. Even if the jury wavers on whether Combs's partners were coerced, they may still find him guilty under the Mann Act based solely on the undeniable fact that he used his resources to transport people for sex. As a result, these may be the hardest charges for the defense to defeat—and they carry serious prison time even without convictions on the other counts.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:Experts say where Sean 'Diddy' Combs 'might be cooked' in sex trafficking trial | Fox NewsBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-epstein-chronicles--5003294/support.

The Charge of the Light Brigade was a military action undertaken by British light cavalry against Russian forces during the Battle of Balaclava in the Crimean War, resulting in many casualties to the cavalry. On 25 October 1854, the Light Brigade, led by Lord Cardigan, mounted a frontal assault against a Russian artillery battery which was well-prepared with excellent fields of defensive fire. The charge was the result of a misunderstood order from the commander-in-chief, Lord Raglan, who had intended the Light Brigade to attack a different objective for which light cavalry was better suited, to prevent the Russians from removing captured guns from overrun Turkish positions. The Light Brigade made its charge under withering direct fire and reached its target, scattering some of the gunners, but was forced to retreat immediately.
