Fox News Radio Capitol Hill reporter Ryan Schmelz joins the show to tell us what is next now that the House has passed Trump's one big beautiful bill. Will they make DOGE's cuts permanent?

Our show opens with new numbers showing hourly wages have risen .8%, which was three times higher than expected. So, being good news, you likely didn't hear about it. Which is what a lot of today's show deals with – the Left's lockstep adherence to their America Last policy. Every Democrat politician, the Legacy/mainstream media and our institutions of higher indoctrination and grooming are all pushing that messaging and agenda. It seems there is a big shake-up happening inside the National Institute of Heath and it is long overdue. Part of that change is the removal of Dr. Fauci's wife from being over the ethics board within NIH. As to DOGE cuts, Gov. Ron DeSantis (R-FL) is dismayed at the lack of movement by the Republicans to codify the cuts. Rep. Tim Burchett (R-TN) feels the same. However, Rep. Brandon Gill (R-TX) thinks the first wave of recission bills will start on Monday with the defunding of PBS and NPR. President Trump made it clear he is not taking orders from Prime Minister Netanyahu of Israel. He isn't “warning” the Prime Minister either. He just asked for more time to negotiate with Iran over their nuclear weapons program. While Ivy League commencement speeches were full of anti-Semitic hate and pro-Hamas love, a former hostage of Hamas tells CNN that they wanted Kamala Harris to win. When they heard Trump had won, they knew they were going to lose. In fact, as we wrap up, people on the ground in Gaza captured hundreds of hungry citizens getting food and praising Trump and America for it.

www.commsolutionsmn.com- For the most part, our local media is just the worst. Our illustrious governor has been touting our increased graduation rates in the state of Minnesota and our media outlets have been singing his praises as though he is the second coming of Woodrow Wilson. The problem? They haven't done one ounce of research to find out why more people are graduating. It doesn't take much effort to find out that the graduation standards have been lowered. All it takes is a little slight of hand to fool everyone into applauding for a complete illusion. President Trump has has an historic first 100 days. The Republicans hold the White House, the Senate, and the House of Representatives. They should just have to come in after President Trump and codify his Executive Orders into law. They have passed two things in 100 days, the Laken Riley Act and the continuing resolution. Where is Congress? They have promised President Trump a big, beautiful bill and it's still stuck in Congress. This bill won't even address Trump's "no taxes on tips" and "no taxes on overtime" campaign promises. There are a couple of bills floating around about the Gulf of America and repealing the Patriot Act, but will they ever get through committee?

In this episode of "The Word is Leadership," I explore the implications of our random word "empty" for leaders. I share three key insights to challenge conventional leadership wisdom: The Empty Generalist Do leaders need to be experts in everything? I argue that credibility stems not from encyclopaedic knowledge, but from your ability to: • Codify your experience • Articulate expertise in broader contexts • Demonstrate how diverse experiences apply to current challenges The Empty Raincoat Inspired by Charles Handy's work, I examine the human element in leadership: • The risks of treating employees as "empty vessels" • The importance of preserving humanity in an AI-driven world • Why leaders must grapple with philosophical questions about their impact The Empty Cup Finally I emphasise the critical role of energy management in leadership: • Leadership as an exchange of energy • The dangers of becoming "drained" and how to refill your cup • Why focusing on organisational energy flows is key to long-term success I hope this episode serves as a powerful reminder that effective leadership requires a delicate balance of expertise, humanity, and personal energy management. I conclude by challenging you to reflect on your own leadership journey, asking: "What comes to mind for you, as a leader, when you hear the word empty?"

Good AFTERNOON, Mets fans!I'm John from ‘Til Mets Do Us Part, and it's time for A DIFFERENT KIND OF ‘Til Mets Morning Minute, where we talk as quickly as possible about the biggest stories from the New York Mets.So, let's talk about Juan Soto. …Don't worry, I'm not an idiot, so it's not gonna be one of *THOSE* “Let's Talk About Juan Soto” videos.Juan Soto is a great player, a true generational talent, and he's been that every place that he's played since he was 19 years old. Has he been vintage Juan Soto to this point with the Mets? No. Does that matter? Also no… Only if you're dumb.First, it's been 19 games into a 15 year contract, any reaction is an overreaction. Second, he's still sporting an OPS+ or 125, or 25% better than league average, generally considered to put a player firmly in the “very good” category. Meaning his slumps are better than most players' best.Codify compared his first 19 games with the Mets to his first 19 with San Diego, and they're awfully close. Obviously, he went on to be predictably great in San Diego.Players are human, no matter how talented. Sometimes, they're going to need an adjustment period — whether that is moving 3,000 miles away after being traded from the only organization you've ever known, or trying to “prove yourself” all over again to a new fan base, after signing the biggest deal in the history of the sport.If you're worried, you're overreacting. If you booing, you're dumb. Be better.See you tomorrow!

Members of Elon Musk's Department of Government Efficiency now have access to technical systems maintained by United States Citizenship and Immigration Services, according to a recent memorandum viewed by FedScoop. The memo, which was sent from and digitally signed by USCIS Chief Information Officer William McElhaney, states that Kyle Shutt, Edward Coristine, Aram Mogahaddassi and Payton Rehling were granted access to USCIS systems and data repositories, and that a Department of Homeland Security review was required to determine whether that access should continue. Coristine, 19, is one of the more polarizing members of DOGE. He previously provided assistance to a cybercrime ring through a company he operated while he was in high school, according to other news outlets. Coristine worked for a short period at Neuralink, Musk's brain implant company, and was previously stationed by DOGE at the Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency. The memo, dated March 28, asks DHS Deputy Secretary Troy Edgar to have his office review and provide direction for the four DOGE men regarding their access to the agency's “data lake” — called USCIS Data Business Intelligence Services — as well as two associated enabling technologies, Databricks and Github. The document says DHS CIO Antoine McCord and Michael Weissman, the agency's chief data officer, asked USCIS to enable Shutt and Coristine's access to the USCIS data lake in mid-March, and Mogahaddassi requested similar access days later. A bipartisan bill to fully establish a National Science Foundation-based resource aimed at providing essential tools for AI research to academics, nonprofits, small businesses and others was reintroduced in the House last week. Under the Creating Resources for Every American To Experiment with Artificial Intelligence (CREATE AI) Act of 2025 (H.R. 2385), a full-scale National AI Research Resource would be codified at NSF. While that resource currently exists in pilot form, legislation authorizing the NAIRR is needed to continue that work. Rep. Jay Obernolte, R-Calif., who sponsors the bill, said in a written statement announcing the reintroduction: “By empowering students, universities, startups, and small businesses to participate in the future of AI, we can drive innovation, strengthen our workforce, and ensure that American leadership in this critical field is broad-based and secure.” The NAIRR pilot, as it stands, is a collection of resources from the public and private sectors — such as computing power, storage, AI models, and data — that are made available to those researching AI to make the process of accessing those types of tools easier.

To get at this, there are a lot of methods to approach what we know - but don't know that we know. We could spend an entire lifetime probing into this unawareness (and some people do). Classify it.

A package of bills introduced by Sen. Marsha Blackburn, R-Tenn., last week would freeze federal hiring and salaries for one year and reintroduce a merit-based compensation structure for federal employees, among other provisions. Blackburn on Thursday announced a single bill as part of her DOGE Act, but a spokesperson from her office clarified in an email to FedScoop that she plans to introduce seven bills under that umbrella. The package would establish a pilot program for civilian employees in the federal government, codifying what President-elect Donald Trump attempted to establish during his first term with Schedule F. The House and Senate Armed Services Committees moved forward a provision paving the way for an independent study assessing the potential creation of a sixth U.S. military service focused on cyber. Both houses of Congress passed nearly identical provisions in their respective versions of the fiscal 2025 National Defense Authorization Act earlier this year, and they were incorporated into the final conferenced bill that was reconciled between both chambers and released Saturday evening. The House passed a similar provision last year that was axed during this conference process for the annual defense policy bill, effectively killing it until it was revived this year.

Organizational efficiency through systems and processes is transformational for Nonprofits The foundation for success in businesses and nonprofits lies within organizational efficiency. Learn more about how the impact method can bring clarity to your nonprofit.  Building a Solid Foundation Starting a business can be a gamble, with 23 % of businesses failing in the first year and 50% failing in the first five years. One huge reason for this is a lack of a solid foundation. Setting up systems and processes and having organizational efficiency are key components of a solid business foundation.  Introducing the Impact Method for Organizational Efficiency The Impact Method helps organizations identify any bottlenecks in their current workflows and move toward organizational efficiency. It's an acronym for Investigate, Map, Prioritize, Act, Codify, and Train. Investigate: This first step involves understanding where things are not working well. It requires an honest look at existing workflows and an openness to change for organizational efficiency. Map: The next step is mapping out solutions. It's crucial to look at other systems and, as technology advances, to look at the features of your systems so that you are making the most of the systems you have. Prioritize: Not all problems can be solved at once. Your budget and timeframe can help determine which tasks to tackle first. Act: This is a crucial step to see change. Once you have mapped out your plans, you need to put your plan in motion. Codify: You must document your processes. Strong SOPs allow your organization to retain valuable knowledge when team members leave, or new ones join. Train: Ensuring everyone is aware of and trained in the new processes is vital for maintaining organizational efficiency. The Importance of Client Retention Efficiency in processes doesn't just benefit internal operations; having strong SOPs impacts donor and client retention. These SOPs enhance customer service, ensuring that clients and donors feel valued, which is crucial for long-term success.  About Stephanie Sloan Stephanie's niche is helping nonprofits master organizational efficiency.

WE MUST CODIFY SCHOOL CHOICE And Amendment 80 does just that by putting school choice into Colorado's Constitution. That is the ONLY way the teachers unions will stop trying to destroy the robust and wildly successful charter school system we have here in Colorado. A majority of the schools in the top ten in Colorado are charter schools are private schools and the teachers unions HATE THIS because they can't control either. Kristi Burton Brown (who is also running for Board of Education and you need to vote for her if you can) is on today to talk about the union money flowing in to stop this and why it must pass.

This week, we've got a guest coming to us straight from the middle of a war zone. Tim Mak joins the show from Kyiv, Ukraine. He's an experienced war correspondent who has worked for leading news outlets and founded his own independent publication just over a year ago to cover the war in Ukraine on the ground. The Counteroffensive publishes original reporting from inside the country and recently profiled the man behind an effort to install gun-rights protections in the nation's law. Mak said the effort has made significant progress. Legislation to legalize civilian gun ownership has already made it through a first read in the Ukranian parliament. He said it has a lot of support within President Volodymyr Zelenskyy's party. Much of that support is driven by Maryan Zablotskiy, who talks a lot like American gun-rights activists and has cultivated relationships inside the American conservative movement. But Mak said he's not the only one in Ukraine whose opinion on gun ownership has been changed after facing the brutal reality of the Russian invasion. Still, he noted not everyone agrees, and there is an active debate over what regulations on civilian guns should remain.

Gary Vaynerchuk and Steve Jobs both became the face of their brand, but could this marketing strategy cost you when it's time to sell your agency?  How can you avoid becoming the brand to build a ‘sellable' agency? Today's guest is an entrepreneur who has successfully started and sold four businesses. He discusses the value of personal brands in relation to company success and delves into the challenges faced by service companies in building assets compared to tech or SaaS startups. Tune in to learn about common mistakes made by agency owners when considering selling their businesses and the pitfalls of an obsession with scale.

How Businesses Fall into the Revenue Pitfall Agency owners and service-based businesses often fall into the trap of overvaluing their companies when considering selling them. This common mistake is rooted in their relentless pursuit of growth and expansion. As a public, we tend to idolize big companies as opposed to good companies. This can turn into an obsession that leads agency owners to focus solely on increasing revenue, rather than building systems and processes that can make the business less dependent on the owners and founders. This fixation on growth typically results in rainmakers focusing predominantly on their sales expertise, which, while driving business growth, also increases dependence on the founders. Paradoxically, this dependence diminishes the overall value of the business. For John, the obsession with growth does agencies a great disservice by creating a culture of focusing solely on revenue. Consequently, businesses become so intertwined with the owner's presence that they essentially create a job for themselves rather than an asset that can thrive independently. This realization can be a bitter pill to swallow for many agency owners, especially when they recognize that their ego often drives these attitudes. By subscribing to the notion portrayed in "Mad Men" that their primary role is that of the charismatic pitchperson, they inadvertently create successful jobs rather than valuable assets. An Easy Method to Add Value to Your Agency So how can you avoid the revenue pitfall? John recommends agency owners take their CEO hat off from time to time and replace it with that of the parent of the business. In this sense, rather than micromanaging employees to hit revenue goals, empower them to take ownership of their work. They will feel greater pride and engagement, enabling the agency to thrive with or without you. By prioritizing long-term sustainability you can increase your agency's value and make it more attractive to potential buyers. It's not just about winning big clients or receiving accolades, but about creating a valuable asset that can stand the test of time. John also introduces the concept of assessing agency services according to how "teachable, valuable, repeatable" (TVR) they are to make strategic business decisions based on this. The TVR framework encourages agency owners to assess each service based on how teachable it is to their team, how valuable it is in terms of differentiation from competitors, and how repeatable it is in terms of recurring revenue. According to John, aency owners should focus on services that score high on all three criteria, as these are the services that will ultimately lead to a more sustainable and scalable business. This is not necessarily easy. Getting rid of some low-scoring services may mean walking away from 90% of your revenue. If this is your case, you can jettison the lowest-scoring services at least once a year. Striking the Right Balance as an Agency CEO Building a business that can run without you and that you can eventually sell will also require you to make the transition from agency owner to CEO. This means assuming different roles like setting the vision for the agency, being the face of the organization, understanding the financials, and coaching and mentoring the leadership team. Personally, John disagrees with Peter Drucker's notion that the two key functions that a CEO should focus on are product development and sales/marketing. In the context of an agency, the CEO should prioritize activities that drive revenue and attract new clients. “If you're doing those two functions, your business is worthless without you” he argues. CEOs who are too public-facing and personally branded may undermine the value of their agency when it comes time to sell. This is because potential buyers may view a highly visible CEO as a risk factor, leading to a larger portion of the deal being tied to an earn-out agreement. Therefore, CEOS need to strike a balance between being the face of the organization and focusing on the core functions of sales and marketing. How to Avoid Becoming the Brand: Tips for Becoming a “Sellable” Agency Would VaynerMedia continue to thrive without Gary Vaynerchuk? Just like Apple continued to grow without Steve Jobs, the most important element of that business is Gary's framework and methodology. What people like Steve and Gary did very well in each case is that the brand supersedes the individual. In Gary's case, many people might not realize who he is as a creator or tie VaynerMedia to him. In any case, building a powerful brand that can grow even in your absence is all about branding processes and not just people. Of course, a strong personal brand can be beneficial but it is also essential to establish the processes that drive the business. By doing so, agencies can create value beyond the individual personalities of their founders or leaders. For agency owners who include their name in the agency name, John suggests branding the processes; for instance, “3 things we do before onboarding a new client”. Codify and brand these processes to create a more valuable and attractive asset for potential buyers. This way, agencies can demonstrate a level of consistency and professionalism that goes beyond any individual's involvement in the business. By establishing and branding the processes that drive the business, agencies can create value that is sustainable and transferable, ultimately leading to long-term growth and success. It's something you can do in stages and could take 2 or 3 years complete. It's an important element of reducing dependency on individual personalities and create a more valuable and attractive asset for potential buyers. Equity Rolls vs. Earnouts: One of these will cost you MILLIONS The classic way an agency is sold is you get approached by the buyer who says they're willing to pay X multiple for it. However, once you take a closer look at that price, it's really 40% upfront, with the other 60% tied to an elaborate earn-out component where you become an employee of another agency. Alternatively, John highlights how private equity companies are increasingly doing "roll-ups" to consolidate agencies, especially in ad tech and tech-enabled services. In an equity roll deal, the seller gets some cash upfront but rolls the remaining amount into an equity stake in the entity owning the agency. This provides pros and cons compared to an earn-out model and gives owners more control over the transition. Equity rolls like majority recapitalizations allow owners to sell just a portion of their shares to receive some liquidity. This payout offers financial stability to pay off debts or invest elsewhere while still having skin in the game to take risks growing the agency. However, selling a majority stake means giving up decision-making control. Owners must be comfortable with a new role and adapt to having outside stakeholders that may bring conflicting interests, especially regarding earn-outs or integrating services across divisions. For its part, an earn-out means you'll lose control of the agency, so be aware of the potential pitfalls of this structure. Instead, Jason suggests a different approach where the seller prioritizes receiving cash upfront and maintains control over the company until the earn-out or period of time is completed. This gives the seller more agency in the sale process and reduces the risk of losing control over their business. All in all, as a seller, be aware of what the acquirer is trying to do, their motivations, and how that aligns with what you want to determine whether or not an earn-out makes sense for you. Prepare Yourself Against the Potential Pitfalls of Acquisitions There are potential pitfalls in agency acquisitions and it's important to be cautious when considering selling or merging with another agency. Typically, as a seller, you have to be aware of the fact that you're becoming a minority shareholder and giving up entrepreneurship for a job. Just be vigilant and protect your interests. Do your due diligence when considering an acquisition and thoroughly evaluate the potential buyer and ensure that the terms of the deal are fair and beneficial to the agency. Furthermore, be wary of offers that may seem enticing on the surface but could ultimately result in a loss of control or value for the agency. The most important way you can protect yourself is to understand the true value of your agency before entering into any acquisition agreements. Don't allow yourself to be swayed by promises of high valuations or potential growth opportunities without thoroughly evaluating the risks and potential drawbacks of the deal and ensure that all parties involved in the acquisition are aligned in terms of goals, vision, and values to avoid potential conflicts down the line.

Special thanks to Harlem School For The Arts, host and without whose support the exhibit would not be possible.Video Games: The Great Connector, explores how young people leverage video games in this pursuit, emphasizing less what games do to youth than what youth do with games. Special thanks to hosts of the event and exhibition, Harlem School of The Arts, without whose support the exhibit would not be possible.Gaming Pathways was founded by a city initiative from the Mayor's Office of Media and Entertainment as a new way for high school students in Harlem, Northern Manhattan, and the South Bronx to get training, degrees, and eventually jobs in digital games. Gaming Pathways is guided by an Educational Advisory Board, which includes many of NYC's leading AAA and indie games companies.

Today's show is dedicated almost entirely to the Senate border bill being pushed by both Senator Chuck “You” Schumer (D-NY) and Senator Mitch “The Turtle” McConnell (R-KY). To help go through it in a fair way, I specifically use the selling points from Senator Chris Murphy (D-CT) and his practiced and pre-written Oscar-moment script he put out on video on Sunday. I also use Senator Schumer's appearance on today's Morning Joe on MSNBC. As we go through I also break down the list of existing Republican Senators who are in favor of the bill and those who are adamantly opposed. Then, I take time to read several sections to you, explaining exactly what it says, what it is intended to do and how it will work. I even break down the sole court where any complaints are allowed to be raised, Constitutionally or otherwise. I breakdown several key funding areas and who will profit from this bill. Ultimately, by the end, if you still think it is a good bill meant to secure our border, I provide two endorsements. All I will tell you is consider the source. The first tweet comes from DHS Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas. The second comes from the sainted Lt. Col. Vindman. If they are 100% for the passing of this bill, you know it is beyond terrible. In short, this bill is designed to do one thing – codify what DHS and the Biden regime have been perpetrating for 3+ years now. It is an attempt to put into law all of the incentives they have implemented to continue flooding into our country illegally. If it passes, even were Donald Trump to win the presidency, his hands would be tied for years trying to overturn the new and anti-American law of the land.  As we close, and for a necessary mental cleanse, I bring you a short, 90 seconds sound bite from a professor at Brown University. Professor Glenn Loury has so brilliant wisdom to share about the nature of equity v. equality. His message should be mandatory listening for every student, professor and acolyte of the DEI/CRT religion. Take a moment to rate and review the show and then share the episode on social media.

"It's being called the Minnesota miracle, but Minnesota's historic legislative session was no act of god." The F-Word is released bi-weekly featuring timely commentaries by Laura Flanders and guests.

What an amazing way to end the month of June headed into Independence Day. Today, I break down the key Supreme Court victories and the likely outcomes and consequences. Yes, they were good rulings, but they will not stop the Left from continuing to fight on. I issue action items at the state and federal levels to further codify religious liberty protections and also end affirmative action. Also, we should be wary about fighting the Left's growing hatred for judicial supremacism. If anything, the ability of the courts to harm us in red states is still greater than their ability to protect our rights in blue states. I'd be willing to make a legitimate trade with the Left to end the concept of judicial supremacism, so long as it's a two-way street.   Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

"It's being called the Minnesota miracle, but  Minnesota's historic legislative session was no act of god."The F-Word features timely commentaries by Laura FlandersThe Laura Flanders Show is made possible by our listeners and viewers. Please become a sustaining member or make a one time donation at LauraFlanders.org/donate No time to get you links embedded but here's the text. Audio's transferring. Check for typos. I've been feeling kinda dizzy. It's being called the Minnesota miracle, but  Minnesota's historic legislative session was no act of god. Democrats in Minnesota wrote abortion rights into law and passed paid family and medical leave; they funded free breakfast and lunch for all k-12 students and passed protections for transgender people. Going forward, undocumented people will be able to get drivers' licenses and people released from prison or jail will be able to vote. There's a one-time tax rebate, and a tax credit aimed at low income parents and a $1 billion investment in affordable housing including for rental assistance. Minnesotans passed stronger protections for workers seeking to unionize, banned conversion therapy for LGBTQ people and set a date by which the electric grid has to be carbon free. They tightened gun laws, loosened marijuana regs, and sent more money to nursing homes. That list's probably still incomplete. In a tweet Barack Obama commented: “If you need a reminder that elections have consequences, check out what's happening in Minnesota.” The stunning session is certainly proof that voting matters. The Democratic Farmers and Labor Party (DFL) owed its trifecta power this session to midterm elections in which they won not just the Governor's mansion, but also majorities in both houses thanks to a one-vote majority in the state Senate and narrow victories by a handful of candidates, one of whom won by just 321 votes. But voting alone won't do it. As the beloved late Minnesota Senator Paul Wellstone knew, legislative action doesn't happen without massive, ongoing organizing by strong coalitions. In this case, long time labor, environmental and social justice activists worked in coalition, the Wellstone way, sometimes for years.  Minnesotans for Paid Family Medical Leave for example —a coalition of 70 labor, faith, and community groups—set their sights and worked to rally support for what they won this year for as much as a decade. And not all majorities matter. Minnesota Democrats have held majorities before, but acted cautiously -- carefully conducting partisan calculus -- in the style of if you don't mind me saying - Obama. Cautionary politics lost them the majority a decade ago. It's taken that long to reboot. In other words, Democrats in Minnesota learned the lesson that Democrats nationally should have learned from the Sen. Mansion experience  Partisanship's nice but principles are better.Finally, Minnesota Democrats didn't just win political capital. They spent it, and they spent it in a bold way, with time to have an impact on real people's lives before the next elections to the Governor's office or the state Senate.There's more to be learned from the Minnesota story. Let's hope some learn it. But the biggest takeaway? Suffice to say, there are no miracles in politics.You can catch Laura's conversation with activists in Texas about how they're surviving abortion bans and trumped up trans laws this time on the Laura Flanders Show on PBS stations, community radio stations and as a podcast or online at Lauraflanders.org.@GRITlaura@TheLFShowThe TV & radio show where the people who say it can't be done take a backseat to the people who are doing it!
