Richard Epstein analyzes the Wong Kim Ark decision, arguing that Justice Horace Gray erroneously applied birthright citizenship to the children of ineligible aliens. He further critiques the expansion of the Equal Protection Clause in the 20th century, claiming it was originally intended for criminal matters rather than civil benefits.1890 SCOTUS

Richard Epstein discusses the legal complexities of a proposed executive order to end birthright citizenship for children of illegal aliens. He highlights the rise of "manufactured citizenship" through birth tourism and predicts the Supreme Court may eventually distinguish between transient visitors and those seeking permanent residency.1905 SCOTUS

In this episode of John Solomon Reports, Alabama GOP Congressman Barry Moore joins to discuss his Senate primary runoff campaign and the key issues driving his platform. Moore also breaks down his new legislation requiring a disclaimer warning at the start of children's programming containing transgender content. In addition, he rails against the "weaponization" of the judicial system in state redistricting processes and highlights the Americans First Immigration Act, which aims to codify President Trump's executive orders. Finally, Moore stresses the critical importance of FISA reform to limit government surveillance overreach and explains the House Freedom Caucus's strong opposition to Central Bank Digital Currencies. In the second segment, Wyoming GOP Congresswoman Harriet Hageman shares updates from her own Senate campaign trail and her focus on curbing the overreach of unelected federal bureaucrats. Hageman details the SAFE Act, a bill she introduced to crack down on “chameleon carriers" – trucking companies that evade safety regulations through such means as rotating through names, ownership structures, and registration numbers to authorities, which puts unsafe drivers on the road. In the third segment, media executive, author and producer Chris Fenton dives into the shifting dynamics of Hollywood and the growing momentum toward bringing film production back to the United States. Fenton highlights his new family-friendly comedy, Bad Counselors, which was 100% American-made and employed 1,200 workers.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Listen and subscribe to Money Making Conversations on iHeartRadio, Apple Podcasts, Spotify, www.moneymakingconversations.com/subscribe/ or wherever you listen to podcasts. New Money Making Conversations episodes drop daily. I want to alert you, so you don’t miss out on expert analysis and insider perspectives from my guests who provide tips that can help you uplift the community, improve your financial planning, motivation, or advice on how to be a successful entrepreneur. Keep winning! Two-time Emmy and Three-time NAACP Image Award-winning, television Executive Producer Rushion McDonald interviewed Dr. Lynn Richardson. Renowned financial literacy expert, educator, and entrepreneur—joins Rushion McDonald for a wide-ranging, practical conversation about money mindset, financial mistakes, entrepreneurship, tax strategy, multiple streams of income, and estate planning. Blending personal storytelling with direct instruction, Dr. Lynn breaks down why many people struggle financially despite earning good money, and why education, planning, and conversation—not income alone—are the keys to wealth-building, particularly within the Black community. Her tone is candid, no‑nonsense, and empowering—earning her self-described reputation as the “Madea of money.” Purpose of the Interview The interview is designed to: Normalize “money-making conversations” in households, businesses, and communities Challenge myths about income, success, and financial security Educate listeners on practical, legal strategies for budgeting, taxes, business structure, and generational wealth Encourage financial transparency, planning, and action, especially among entrepreneurs and families Shift mindset from survival and spending to strategy and stewardship At its core, the interview reinforces that financial empowerment starts with education and honest dialogue—not luck, prayer alone, or higher income. Key Takeaways 1. More Money Does Not Fix Money Problems Dr. Lynn explains that earning more without changing behavior and mindset only magnifies financial issues. She shares her own journey of making tens of thousands per month while still living paycheck-to-Monday. Core lesson: Income is not the problem—money management is. 2. Silence and Shame Keep People Financially Stuck Many people avoid addressing financial trouble due to pride, fear, or cultural conditioning (“don’t air dirty laundry”). Dr. Lynn emphasizes that the first step to financial recovery is speaking up and facing reality. Core lesson:Financial healing begins with honesty—not hiding. 3. Money Is Predictable Math, Not Mystery Dr. Lynn demystifies money as a simple equation: if expenses exceed income, the outcome is guaranteed. Emotional avoidance turns math into bondage. Core lesson: “Money is more predictable than anything—one plus one always equals two.” 4. Children Are Financial Assets When Taught Properly She explains a powerful tax strategy: hiring children (or relatives) in a home-based business and paying them up to the IRS threshold tax-free, while teaching them skills and entrepreneurship. Core lesson:Children shouldn’t just consume money—they can learn how it works. 5. Most Entrepreneurs Are Undereducated About Business Dr. Lynn criticizes the rise of “janky businesses”—LLCs without proper structure, records, or protections—leaving owners exposed legally and financially. Core lesson:Talent without business education leads to unnecessary risk. 6. One Stream of Income Is Dangerous She strongly reinforces that relying on a single income source is no longer viable for financial security. Wealth requires multiple, independent income streams. Core lesson:Job security is not wealth security. 7. Estate Planning Is a Responsibility, Not a Luxury Dr. Lynn reframes estate planning as a life and legacy plan, not something only for the wealthy. Without a plan, the government decides what happens to your assets. Core lesson:Everyone has an estate—the question is who controls it. Notable Quotes “Money making conversations isn’t just a title—it’s a movement and a lifestyle.” “Rich people stay rich because they act poor. Poor people stay poor because they act rich.” “The first adjustment anybody needs to make is to open their mouth and talk to someone.” “One stream of income is hazardous to your wealth.” “If you don’t have an estate plan, the government has one for you.” “You spend the money and it’s gone. I spend the money and I get it back—legally.” Conclusion This interview positions Dr. Lynn Richardson as both a financial truth-teller and a practical strategist. Her message is clear: Wealth is built through education, planning, structure, and conversation Financial mistakes are common—but avoidable Generational wealth requires intentional action, not silence or hope The episode reinforces Money Making Conversations Masterclass as a platform not just for inspiration—but for execution and accountability. #SHMS #BEST #STRAWSupport the show: https://www.steveharveyfm.com/See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

We are back in the hospital. I had an emotional moment as the chemo was getting started last night, and I share it here on this episode. I also talk about: -- Styling your hair in soft water vs. hard water cities -- Perpetual stew!! -- My husband stepped on a rattlesnake   Watch this episode on Youtube, and follow my channel while you're there!   

One of the hardest things I face as a father is watching my kids deflect responsibility and blame everyone else for their mistakes. A door slams in the car, and suddenly it's the wind's fault. A bad grade lands on the homework sheet, but somehow it's the teacher's fault. I know I'm not alone in this—it's one of the most common questions I get from our Dad Edge community. So I brought my brother Joe back to the Q&A to tackle it head-on, and I'm honestly still thinking about what he said. Joe has five kids of his own, including three daughters, so he's lived this battle in real-time. He's learned that what looks like defiance or dishonesty is often just a 12-year-old girl—or a 10-year-old boy—drowning in internal noise. There's social media, body image stuff, the need to be accepted, the pressure to be popular. As fathers, we can barely fathom the tornado of things swirling around in their heads. But when we understand that first, everything changes about how we respond. What struck me most was Joe's wisdom on adopted kids and their fear of failure. If your child came to you a different way—whether adopted or blended—there's an invisible layer of anxiety about worth and belonging. That's not an excuse for irresponsibility; it's context. And context changes how we coach. He walked me through how to use questions instead of accusations, how to celebrate integrity when we see it, and how to be careful with the words we speak because words become the narrative our kids believe about themselves. This Q&A is one you'll want to listen to twice. Once for the tactics on teaching ownership, and once to hear what Joe says about narratives and the power of telling your kids the truth about who they are. Because if we're building men—and that's what we do here—we have to give them a better story to believe about themselves.   Timeline Summary [0:02] Host introduces The Dad Edge mission: creating leaders of men, families, and communities [1:02] Welcome to June 2026 and the epic Q&A episode—plus announcement of exclusive Alliance giveaways this month [1:52] Four exclusive bonuses for joining the Alliance in June: signed copy of The Pursuit of Legendary Fatherhood, two courses ($500 value each), and 50 Intimate Conversation Starters [3:49] Joe joins and shares his excitement about these monthly Q&A conversations with the community [4:42] Sean submits the core question: His 12-year-old adopted daughter Angelina constantly blames others and won't take ownership for her actions [5:30] Joe responds: At 12, girls are in transition from childhood to womanhood with massive internal pressure around social media, body image, and acceptance [6:18] The key insight—girls can think about 5-6 things at once while most men focus on one track; understanding this is crucial [7:23] Covey's principle: Seek to understand before you seek to be understood; girls at 12 are anxious about their origin story and fear of failure [8:27] The adoption layer: Children who came to families differently often fear they'll be rejected again, which fuels the blame pattern [10:00] Use questions, not accusations: Instead of "Why did you slam the door?" try "Help me understand what happened"—questions keep the door open instead of triggering defensiveness [15:45] Teaching integrity and responsibility: Point out integrity every time you see it—in your child, in others, in everyday moments [38:36] Celebrate integrity immediately: "That showed so much integrity" builds the construct in your child's mind of what integrity actually looks like [39:43] The power of words: Life and death are in the tongue; be careful about criticism around performance because every child struggles with "not being good enough" [40:43] Give your kids a better narrative: The foundation for who they are as people is built on the words you speak and the truth you help them believe about themselves [43:52] Free resource: "Questions for the Car" PDF with 75 age-appropriate questions (5-8, 9-12, and teens) to build connection without the standard "how was school" questions [45:31] Reminder about Alliance June bonuses and gratitude for the community and reviews   Five Key Takeaways When your kid blames others, they're often drowning in internal noise. Before you react to the deflection, understand the 10 things happening inside their head—social pressure, body image, fear of rejection. Understanding first changes everything about how you coach. Instead of asking "Why did you do that?" use questions to understand. The word "why" triggers defensiveness immediately; "Help me understand what happened" keeps the conversation open and models curiosity instead of accusation. Point out integrity constantly—in your child, in strangers, in everyday moments. Integrity is an abstract word to a 10-year-old, so show them what it looks like. Celebrate it immediately. Build the mental model they'll use for the rest of their lives. The words you speak become the narrative your kids believe about themselves. Lies believed enslave a person; truth believed sets them free. Are you speaking words that will free your kids or words that will trap them? Build connection before you expect influence.

This week, the ladies are joined by Ayanfe for a truly unforgettable episode. We start with a quick catch-up, then get into some dilemmas that go from confusing to completely unhinged. One listener's husband is refusing to have children until his siblings do, another is grieving her sister while secretly falling in love with the husband she left behind.Then Ayanfe takes us through his incredible life story, from how he first got to Lagos to ending up in an orphanage after an accident. He shares what daily life was like, the relationships he built there and what it took to eventually reconnect with his family. He also opens up about living on the streets with hustling boys and choosing to hold on to his honest craft instead of going back to that life. It is honest, emotional, hilarious and a beautiful reminder of resilience, grace and finding your way back to yourself.Enjoy this amazing episode brought to you by our friends at Busha - an SEC-licensed digital asset exchange where you can buy, sell and send digital assets anywhere in the world and also save in Naira or Dollars with up to 20% annual interest.

Children's homily for the feast of the Holy Trinity 

On today's Flyover Conservatives Show, we sat down with filmmaker and Frozen Orphans founder Neel Upadhye to discuss the hidden moral crisis inside the IVF industry and the estimated 2 million frozen embryos currently waiting in storage. Neel shares his deeply personal journey through infertility, embryo adoption, miscarriage, foster care, and international adoption while helping Christians think biblically about when life begins and what it means to defend the least of these. This powerful conversation exposes the ethical questions many families are never told to ask and offers hope, grace, and practical solutions for those navigating infertility, IVF, and the fight for life.TO WATCH ALL FLYOVER CONTENT: www.theflyoverapp.comFollow and Subscribe on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@TheFlyoverConservativesShowTo Schedule A Time To Talk To Dr. Dr. Kirk Elliott Go To▶ https://flyovergold.comOr Call 720-605-3900► Receive your FREE 52 Date Night Ideas Playbook to make date night more exciting, go to www.prosperousmarriage.comNeel UpadhyeWEBSITE: www.frozenorphans.orgFACEBOOK for Rethinking Fertility: https://www.facebook.com/rethinkingfertility/SUBSTACK: https://rethinkingfertility.substack.com?utm_source=navbar&utm_medium=webNeel Upadhye is a filmmaker, writer, and the founder of Frozen Orphans, an organization dedicated to educating families about the moral and ethical questions surrounding IVF, embryo adoption, and the fertility industry.

Humility is a powerful (and mostly misunderstood) mental health skill that's grounded by self-knowledge and self-compassion. Humility is also a powerful antidote to rumination and harsh self-criticism and a tool to support mood and emotional resilience. We'll build up humility through this series by taking a positive psychology approach along with Dr. Daryl Van Tongeren's framework to build humility (know yourself, check yourself, go beyond yourself.) This episode is all about Step 1 (know yourself) and it turns out it's both the most uncomfortable and the most freeing place to start. About: The Joy Lab Podcast is an Ambie-nominated podcast that blends science and soul to help you cope better with stress, anxiety, and depression.

[02:00] The humility paradox: who scores highest on self-reported humility? People with narcissistic traits. What this reveals about why self-knowledge matters. [04:30] Reflection vs. rumination: same self-focused action, completely different energy — and very different effects on anxiety and depression. [07:30] Clark Griswold on the roundabout: Aimee's perfect visual for rumination, plus Van Tongeren's concept of "right-sizing yourself." [09:30] Obstacle #1: The idealized self. When the gap between who you are and who you think you should be stops motivating and starts deflating. [12:00] Obstacle #2: The better-than-average effect. Most of us rank ourselves above average — and that's statistically impossible. How this positivity bias quietly inflates us. [14:30] Obstacle #3: The harsh inner critic disguised as self-awareness. Why beating yourself up isn't humility — it's ego turned inward. [17:00] Dr. Kristin Neff's insight: self-compassion is the foundation of honest self-awareness. You can look clearly when you're not afraid of what you'll find. [19:30] Rumination as an internal courtroom — and Aimee's personal story about chronic lateness, hard feedback from a friend, and what it took to actually receive it. [23:30] Henry's simple journaling practice: notice what you observed about yourself this week. No analysis, no judgment — just patterns, held gently.

Today we're talking about autistic burnout—what it is, how it shows up in children and young people, and what it actually takes to support recovery. My guest is Jodie Clarke, an autistic and ADHD professional with more than 20 years of experience specializing in autistic experience and mental health, particularly in children and teens. In this episode, Jodie talks about the signs and causes of autistic burnout, how it's often misunderstood or missed altogether, and what meaningful support really looks like. This is an essential conversation for anyone supporting autistic kids—grounded, validating, and full of important shifts in how we understand and respond to burnout.  About Jodie Clarke Jodie Clarke is an autistic and ADHD professional with over 20 years' experience, specialising in autistic experience and mental health with a focus on children and young people .

There's a moment in a pediatrician's day that doesn't show up on the schedule. It's the bruise that doesn't quite match the story, or the awkward pause after a parent answers a question just a little too quickly or the child who won't make eye contact or let go of your sleeve. In these moments, pediatricians become more than clinicians. They become interpreters, advocates and sometimes the only line of protection. To help us understand the latest on child abuse, we are joined by Denise Abdoo, PhD, CPNP. Dr. Abdoo is a pediatric nurse practitioner who specializes in child abuse and neglect. She is also an associate professor at the University of Colorado School of Medicine. Some highlights from this episode include: What's changed in treating child abuse over the last decade  The impact of social media on child abuse  The most easily missed signs in a pediatric visit  Recent changes in laws, reporting and expectations  For more information on Children's Colorado, visit: childrenscolorado.org. 

Melissa Albert's novel may be called The Children, but it's certainly not for kids.   This is a story about the dark creativity behind bright make-believe, about the pretty lies of childhood and the brutal truths of growing up. It's about writers and writing and as you'll hear me point out, it does for fantasy fiction what Stephen King's Misery did for Gothic romance.   And by god do we talk about all of that. As well as celebrating a character that I believe to be one of the best “bad-mothers” in recent fiction (and the secret hero of the book!)   But maybe that's just me. I'm twisted.   Enjoy.   Other books mentioned: The Hazel Wood (2018), by Melissa Albert The Magicians (2009), by Lev Grossman Daytide (2026), by Chris Panatier When You Reach Me (2009) by Rebecca Stead Fangirl (2013), by Rainbow Rowell This Kingdom Will Not Kill Me (2026), by Ilona Andrews   Support Talking Scared on Patreon   Check out the Talking Scared Merch line – at VoidMerch   Come talk books on Threads, Bluesky, and Instagram, or email direct to talkingscaredpod@gmail.com Learn more about your ad choices.

In this deep dive episode, I explore how secure attachment evolves across development and what children are really needing from us emotionally at each stage of childhood and adolescence. Using Erik Erikson's stages of psychosocial development as a framework, we look at the core emotional tasks kids are navigating from infancy through young adulthood, and how our role as parents shifts alongside them.   Together, we explore:   - What secure attachment looks like at different developmental stages. - How to stay connected to your child as their needs evolve over time. - Why toddlers push for independence and what they need from us in those moments. - How play, boredom, and curiosity support emotional development in early childhood - Why school-age kids become more focused on achievement, perfectionism, and peer comparison. - How social media can intensify insecurity during key developmental windows. - Why adolescence can suddenly feel so emotionally intense and unpredictable. - How to stay a secure base for your teen without escalating power struggles. - What today's loneliness epidemic can teach us about raising emotionally connected kids. - Why repair matters more than perfection in secure relationships. - How understanding your child's developmental task can completely shift the way you respond to behavior.   This episode is ultimately about learning to zoom out. Not to parent each stage perfectly, but to better understand what your child is actually working through underneath the behaviors, emotions, and developmental shifts that can sometimes leave us feeling confused or disconnected. Because when we understand the developmental needs driving our child's behavior, we can respond with more clarity, compassion, and connection.     LEARN MORE ABOUT ME:

"Kids are always processing what happens around them. Stories give them a way to do that." - Paul McCusker   Summary Today on the podcast we welcome Paul McCusker, an award-winning writer whose stories have shaped the imaginations of families for decades. Many know Paul from Adventures in Odyssey, where he wrote and produced some of the series' most loved episodes. We talk about his newest project, Welcome to Hope Springs, and how great stories combine truth, beauty, and engagement. Paul shares why we should never talk down to kids, especially ages ten to twelve, when their imagination is wide open and they are learning how to see the world. Stories help children live through characters, process hard realities, and even prepare for moments they have not faced yet. This conversation is about why stories matter for kids and families today. Key Takeaways Great stories combine truth, beauty, and engagement. Stories that last are not just entertaining. They communicate deeper truths in a compelling way. We should never talk down to children. Kids, especially ages 10–12, can understand much more than adults often assume. Children at this age are learning how to see and interpret the world around them. Stories help children process real-life events. Kids are always processing what happens around them, even when they do not yet know how. Stories allow children to live vicariously and see how others face challenges and grow. Stories prepare us for future moments. The wisdom in good stories plants seeds that shape future choices and actions. Talking about stories with parents deepens their impact. Conversations help kids understand lessons, character growth, and how to respond in real-life situations.   Couple Discussion Questions What stories do you remember from your childhood?  Maybe it was something you read or something you heard or a movie you watched.  Can you think of a story that helped you see a situation or choice differently in your own life? What was it and why did it stick with you?   Resources https://www.augustineinstitute.org/hopesprings
