Willie talks with former Cincinnati Councilmember Liz Keating, who is once again throwing her hat in the ring and running for Council again. What does she plan to do to help the city?

Description:  Alex Stone, Ketamine Queen The so-called “Ketamine Queen” of Los Angeles — once a prime target of federal prosecutors — has pleaded guilty to charges tied to providing the fatal dose that killed Friends star Matthew Perry in 2023. Michael Monks, Housing Battle;  The L.A. City Council is set to vote on whether to oppose a hotly debated state housing bill that would force cities to allow high-density housing near major transit stops—unless amended to exempt cities with compliant plans. $17K United Airlines Scam;  A man called United Airlines customer service… and somehow ended up talking to a scammer who drained him of $17,000.  Southern California is bracing for a dangerous heat wave and fire risk, as reports surface of a brutal attack on a woman at a Pasadena concert. 

European leaders visited the White House on Monday, where President Trump had an Oval Office meeting with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy. Coming just days after Trump's Alaskan summit with Vladimir Putin, many questions still remain: what will it take to negotiate an end to the war? And what do “security guarantees” look like for Ukraine, for Europe, and even for Russia? Former NSC advisor to President George W. Bush and Beacon Global Strategies managing director Michael Allen about the territory demands from Russia, European leaders pushing for Ukraine's security guarantees, and the historic peace talks being shepherded by the Trump administration. One week into President Trump's crime crackdown in Washington, D.C., and Democrats continue to push back, arguing that crime data suggests the President's actions in the nation's capital are unnecessary and that violence is not "out of control." Mayor Muriel Bowser has called the administration's actions "unsettling and unprecedented." Rafael Mangual, a fellow at the Manhattan Institute and member of the Council on Criminal Justice, joins to discuss President Trump's actions, what is next for the city, and why he says crime statistics don't always reflect reality.

This episode of The Patrick Madrid Show is an exploration into one of those ouch topics: What happened to Judas? Is it possible he still went to heaven? Patrick walks us through Pope Leo’s recent catechesis, which centers on Jesus, our hope... and the betrayal at the Last Supper. Pope Leo reflects on that haunting line from Mark 14: “Surely it is not I?” He calls it one of the most sincere questions a disciple can ask, and it’s a moment of fragile, gut-check honesty. But then the Holy Father shares this heavy truth: “If by betraying, we become unfaithful to ourselves... we exclude ourselves from salvation.” In other words, Judas didn’t get dragged to hell against his will; he chose the path. He excluded himself. What the Church Has Actually Said: Patrick reminds us that this isn’t mere speculation: The Catechism of the Council of Trent flat-out says: “Judas has not profited from redemption and has lost his soul.” That’s the Church putting it plainly. But… What About God’s Mercy?! This is a totally fair question, but Patrick lays it out like this: -God won’t force you to love Him. -Patrick reminds us that Judas knew Jesus. He lived with Him, ate with Him, and he saw miracles.And still... he walked away. Don't forget that Jesus said: “None of them was lost except the son of destruction…” – John 17:12 That’s Jesus talking about Judas, not a random sinner. Jesus also said in scripture that it would have been better if Judas was never born; Patrick explains that this wouldn't make sense if Judas ended up in heaven. Patrick reminds you that even someone that close to Jesus can fall, so how much more do we need to cling to grace? We shouldn't fear, but we need to stay close to Jesus and always choose repentance (like Peter did). Let's never take our salvation for granted.

In the record of Mark 14 and 15, we have, what's believed to be, Peter's accounting of the most horrific few days of his life. The 14th chapter commenced 2 days before the Lord's crucifixion with his anointing in the home of Simon the leper, believed by some to be the father of the family, Mary, Martha, Lazarus and Judas and would be the home of Martha's deceased husband. It was this incident which incited Judas Iscariot to betray Jesus for 30 pieces of silver. Our Lord praises Mary's extravagant act of love and understanding. She alone among all of our Lord Jesus Christ's disciples understood that Christ would die during the Passover. Jesus sent Peter and John, to prepare the Lord's supper. All had been secretly prearranged to prevent any interruptions to his Passover. He needed every last moment to prepare his Apostles for his decease. These Apostles had to learn to live faithfully without our Lord's presence. During the memorial feast our Lord prophesied details of Peter's betrayal, much to Peter's bold protestation to the contrary. The supper having ended the Lord and now eleven of his chosen disciples went to Gethsemane where our Master's greatest trial occurs. In Gethsemane he begged his Father to find another way than the stake, where he would be shamefully exposed to men but each time Jesus was told there could be no alternative. Finally our Lord's resolve strengthened through angelic support and his intense struggle to subject his own will to that of the Father the Son of God was perfected through his sufferings: Hebrews 5 verses 7-9. Slowly read aloud those verses from Hebrews and meditate the intensity of his struggle and the greatness of the Son of God in submitting to his Father's will. Christ was strengthened by an angel to aid him in submitting humbly to death. Judas arrives with a band of heavily armed thugs from the temple. A young man, quite likely Mark himself, escapes them after having tried to warn Jesus. Verses 53-65 tell of Jesus before the Council and the accusation of blasphemy levelled at him (surely this had been Judas' doing) and the Master's rebuttal from Daniel 7 verses 13-14. The chapter finishes with Peter's threefold denial of his Lord. Peter was in great bitterness for denying Jesus. His repentance contrasts with Judas' remorse without any repentance. https://christadelphianvideo.org/christadelphian-daily-readings/

Read OnlineChildren were brought to Jesus that he might lay his hands on them and pray. The disciples rebuked them, but Jesus said, “Let the children come to me, and do not prevent them…” Matthew 19:13–14In the Catechism of the Council of Trent, which was promulgated by Pope Saint Pius V, this passage is linked with infant baptism. It states, “Besides, it is not to be supposed that Christ the Lord would have withheld the Sacrament and grace of Baptism from children, of whom He said: Suffer the little children, and forbid them not to come to me…” (II, 2, 32). This teaching clearly indicates one of the best ways that this passage is fulfilled today. Inviting even infants before they reach the age of reason to receive the Sacrament of Baptism fulfills this loving command of Jesus to “Let the children come to me…”Young children do not have the ability to rationally understand love in its purest form. That comes with the age of reason, which has traditionally been understood to be around the age of seven. But children, and even infants, are capable of receiving our love and are capable of receiving the love of God, even if they do not yet fully comprehend this gift.As a child grows, they learn what love means as they witness it and experience it, especially through the mediation of their parents. This helps form their consciences in such a way that they become capable of making their own free choice to love as they mature in age. But if a child is to grow into a loving adult, they need more than just a good example, they need grace. The grace of Baptism is the primary source of that grace in their lives.It's easy for many to see Baptism only as a nice ceremony to welcome the newly born child into God's family. And though that is true, it is so much more. The Catechism of the Catholic Church states that Baptism bestows an indelible mark which “remains for ever in the Christian as a positive disposition for grace, a promise and guarantee of divine protection, and as a vocation to divine worship and to the service of the Church” (CCC #1121). In other words, Baptism bestows upon one's soul a gift that can never be removed and becomes an ongoing source of grace. And when an infant is baptized, it's as if this Scripture passage above is perpetuated throughout that person's life. Because of this sacramental grace, Jesus continually says to this baptized soul, “Come to Me.”In addition to the grace of Baptism, we must all imitate Jesus' action of welcome and acceptance of not only children but of every child of God. Though the disciples initially tried to prevent the children from coming to our Lord, we must not. We must understand that there is a real temptation within our fallen human nature to both withhold the love of God from others and to even prevent others from coming to God. Anger, pride, envy, jealousy and the like can cause us to object to the conversion of others and to God welcoming them to Himself. When that temptation sets in, we must hear Jesus say to us, “Let the children come to me” and “do not prevent them.”Reflect, today, upon these gentle and inviting words of Jesus. As you do, try to call to mind anyone who you might try to prevent from coming to our Lord. Do you desire the holiness of all people? Is there anyone in your life whom you find it difficult to encourage to come to Jesus to be embraced and blessed? Take on the heart of Jesus and see it as your duty to embrace others as He embraced these children. The more you become an instrument of the love of Christ, the more you will daily rejoice in God's blessings as they are bestowed on others.My tender Lord, You welcome all people to share in Your grace. You welcome every child and every child of God to share in Your loving embrace. Please extend that welcome to me and help me to accept this gift of Your infinite love. And help me to become a better instrument of Your love toward others, never interfering or preventing them from turning to You. Jesus, I trust in You.Image: Charles Lock Eastlake, Public domain, via Wikimedia CommonsSource of content: catholic-daily-reflections.comCopyright © 2025 My Catholic Life! Inc. All rights reserved.

Send us a textHow's yall's summer going??? It's hot in New Orleans. And that humidity makes me glow HARD! I thought it'd be fun to wake the show up this week to introduce a couple of new conversations I had recently. First, I was contacted about an amazing skin care brand that has revolutionized the way brown skin is taken care of today.

With products made with melanin in mind, your best skin day is every day. While most skincare companies use primarily caucasian skin to study effectiveness, we studied only those with melanin-rich skin. We focus on your skin using our proprietary blend of phytonutrients from start to finish, because proven science leads to proven results.Founded by dermatologists of color with over 50 years of experience, Brownkind is here to offer you the long-overlooked knowledge you need to give your skin the care it deserves. Listen as I am schooled in caring for brown skin by 2 of the world's leaders, Dr. Gauri Desai and Dr. Abhijit Desai and learn more about their amazing skin care brand at www.brownkind.com______________________________________________________________________Then later I welcome back my own personal favorites of mine- Past 2 term Mayor for the city of New Orleans, Mr. Marc Morial. Also leader of the National Urban League. Recently, I got to talk to him about the Homelessness situation in New Orleans. I wanted to make sure I was on the right side of things. I know and I SEE that our amazing Council person, and friend of mine, Ms. Lesli Harris has her fingers on the pulse, honey. It gives me chill bumps at the passion in her voice that gives way to the charm in her smile. The date proves we are on the right track! But there is always time to reflect on what can be done better. Life is always about getting better. And I know with passionate civic workers like Council Member Harris, along with the heart beat of our city- the future data will prove even better. AND I CLAIM THAT IN HIS NAME.

Our guest on this week's episode is Joel Wayment, VP/GM at Cardinal Health Third Party Logistics and Packaging Solutions. We are definitely in the dog days of summer and in just about every part of the country we are really feeling the heat. While many people like to soak up the sun's rays, high temperatures are not so welcome for the pharmaceuticals we rely on to stay healthy every day. A lot of drugs have to be kept at strict temperatures to remain effective. But how challenging is it to assure proper conditions as drugs move through our supply chains? Our guest offers his expertise on how to assure the safety of important drugs while transiting summer heat.Incidents of cargo theft are on the rise. One of the most recent pieces of evidence is a report from supply chain visibility and risk analysis firm Overhaul. The company's United States Q2-2025 Cargo Theft Report found that cargo theft rose 33% year-over-year in the second quarter of 2025. That continues a steady climb in such incidents over the past few years. And they expect thefts to increase in the coming months of peak season.According to the management consulting firm Kearney, the global food system is breaking away from traditional operating models as companies are struggling to protect their operating margins. Rising costs of food production are having major impacts on the food supply chain. We discuss the problems and possible solutions.Supply Chain Xchange  also offers a podcast series called Supply Chain in the Fast Lane.  It is co-produced with the Council of Supply Chain Management Professionals. A new series is now available on Top Threats to our Supply Chains. It covers topics including Geopolitical Risks, Economic Instability, Cybersecurity Risks, Threats to energy and electric grids; Supplier Risks, and Transportation Disruptions  Go to your favorite podcast platform to subscribe and to listen to past and future episodes.

In this episode of the ChinaPower Podcast, Dr. Yanzhong Huang joins us to examine China's growing influence over the global pharmaceutical industry and the risks it poses for the United States. Dr. Huang explains how China evolved from a low-cost manufacturer of chemical inputs to a comprehensive pharmaceutical power producing advanced drugs and playing an important role in global pharmaceutical innovation. He highlights areas of acute U.S. dependence, from antibiotics and vitamins to critical precursor chemicals, and recounts how the Covid-19 pandemic underscored the vulnerability of U.S. supply chains. Dr. Huang explains the highly interdependent nature of global drug supply chains and notes that even if countries attempt to build alternative production capacity outside of China, they would still rely on Chinese suppliers at certain stages of the supply chain and would need years to replicate China's integrated industrial ecosystems. He concludes with an assessment of U.S. policy options for building resilience, including targeted de-risking of key medicines and diversifying suppliers among trusted partners.  Dr. Yanzhong Huang is a senior fellow for global health at the Council on Foreign Relations, where he directs the Global Health Governance roundtable series. He is also a professor and director of global health studies at Seton Hall University's School of Diplomacy and International Relations, where he developed the first academic concentration among U.S. professional international affairs schools that explicitly addresses the security and foreign policy aspects of health issues. He is the founding editor of Global Health Governance: The Scholarly Journal for the New Health Security Paradigm.  Dr. Huang is the author of multiple books and reports, including most recently The COVID-19 Pandemic and China's Global Health Leadership, published in 2022.

Michael McNair: How Trump Administration Is Driving The Dollar Lower There has certainly been a lot of chaos in the financial markets since Trump started his second term. Even aside from the tariffs, we've seen the dollar index plummet in the time Trump's been in office, amidst numerous comments from Trump cabinet officials about how they feel the dollar is just too high. Meanwhile, as the tariff policies have frequently changed, while the commentary from the Trump team often leaves you feeling like you're getting less than the full story, fortunately, I have some good news. Because I've mentioned fund manager Michael McNair, who months ago wrote a thesis on the signs he's seeing that the Trump administration is already actively implementing Chairman of the Council of Economic Advisors Stephen Miran's plan, that he laid out in his 41-page paper titled "Restructuring the Global Trading System." Which I might also add came out one month before Trump named him for the position of chairman. Fortunately, I was able to catch up with Michael, who then proceeded to give a master class on some of the intricacies of what's going on right now. Which with all due respect, I simply think you will not find anywhere else. So especially if you're not sure what to make of the first half year of Trump's second term, and want to know what the plan really is, and if it will ultimately be able to be successful, you will want to watch today's show!. - To find Michael McNair on twitter go to: https://x.com/michaeljmcnair To read Michael's most recent paper titled 'The Dollar Squeeze: How the Trump Administration Reversed Capital Flows Without Capital Controls,' go to: https://medium.com/@mcnai002/the-dollar-squeeze-how-the-trump-administration-reversed-capital-flows-without-capital-controls-d32e4e728a34 - Get access to Arcadia's Daily Gold and Silver updates here: https://goldandsilverdaily.substack.com/ - To get your very own 'Silver Chopper Ben' statue go to: https://arcadiaeconomics.com/chopper-ben-landing-page/ - Join our free email list to be notified when a new video comes out: click here: https://arcadiaeconomics.com/email-signup/ - Follow Arcadia Economics on twitter at: https://x.com/ArcadiaEconomic - To get your copy of 'The Big Silver Short' (paperback or audio) go to: https://arcadiaeconomics.com/thebigsilvershort/ - Thank you for watching!

Two-time Trump administration vet Lynne Parker has exited as principal deputy director of the White House Office of Science and Technology Policy following the release of the administration's AI plan. In a LinkedIn post Tuesday, Parker said she was “passing the torch” and had fulfilled her mission of helping the Trump administration “hit the ground running,” citing the launch of AI innovation and education initiatives as well as drone-focused policy, and the administration's “gold standard” science initiative. She said she plans to return to her retirement in Tennessee. Parker joined the administration in January, working alongside OSTP Director Michael Kratsios. In addition to her OSTP title, she was also named executive director of the President's Council of Advisors for Science and Technology. Parker had returned to the current Trump administration after serving as deputy CTO and founding director of the National Artificial Intelligence Initiative Office. The White House didn't immediately respond to a request for comment on her departure. In addition to Parker, OSTP senior policy advisor Dean Ball also recently announced he was leaving the White House following the release of the administration's anticipated AI Action Plan last month. Ball rejoined the Foundation for American Innovation, a technology-focused think tank formerly known as the Lincoln Network, as a fellow focused on AI policy and governance models for emerging technology. The cloud management company Box is the latest agency to strike a deal with the General Services Administration to offer its artificial intelligence services to the federal government at a fraction of the normal price. The GSA said in an announcement Wednesday that federal agencies can buy Box's Enterprise Plus for Government software for up to 75% off and the company's Enterprise for Advanced Government software discounted by up to 65% of the listed price for a year-long term. The announcement follows a series of other deals with major AI firms like OpenAI and Anthropic that aim to increase the use of AI across the federal government. Like the other OneGov collaborations, the GSA said Box's AI platform will help boost productivity at agencies, automate workflows and assist with tasks like document generation, e-signatures and forms.

This is Frank Gaffney with the Secure Freedom Minute.  Secretary of State Marco Rubio was asked yesterday by talk radio host Sid Rosenberg, “Why wouldn't you guys designate the Muslim Brotherhood and CAIR?” He responded,  “All of that is in the works. Obviously, there are different branches of the Muslim Brotherhood, so you'd have to designate each one of them.” Those who have enabled that Sharia-supremacist – and therefore terrorism-tied – group and its fronts like the Council on American-Islamic Relations to metastasize in this country will surely mobilize to prevent their designations as such. Qatar, Turkey and jihadist organizations they support will use their considerable influence and operatives to protect the Brothers.  Still, nine years ago this week, then-presidential candidate Donald Trump pledged that “the support networks for Radical Islam in this country will be stripped out and removed one by one.” That's a promise made that must be kept now. This is Frank Gaffney.

Much of Angela Washko's work begins with a simple question: What if we took the media we consume every day — the video games, the reality shows, the online chatrooms — as seriously as we take traditional art spaces? What if we examined them not just as distractions or products but as public arenas where identity, power and belonging are actively negotiated?With a practice that spans performance, social engagement, video games and film, Angela has spent more than a decade doing just that. Her work doesn't just critique digital culture from the outside; it embeds itself within it, creating space for dialogue in places not usually known for nuance. Whether she's convening feminist councils in the fantasy worlds of online gaming or crafting interactive experiences from the textures of real life, her projects ask how we behave when no one — or everyone — is watching. In 2012 she launched The Council on Gender Sensitivity and Behavioral Awareness in World of Warcraft, an in-game social practice project that sparked multi-hour dialogues between initially hostile players. Later she created The Game: The Game, an RPG in which a player could try to negotiate a bar packed full of male pickup artists following the same seduction playbook. And just last year, fascinated by the allure and promises of reality television, she directed her first documentary, “Workhorse Queen,” about a few members of the tightknit drag community in Rochester, NY and their complicated relationship with “RuPaul's Drag Race” and the commerce of 21st century drag celebrity.In this interview, Angela, now a full professor and the MFA Program Director at the Stamps School of Art & Design at the University of Michigan, reflects on how she found her voice as an artist inside a male-dominated gaming culture, why she continues to work in and not against the media she critiques and how becoming a mother during a global crisis reshaped her ideas of creativity, care and time.https://angelawashko.com/home.html

There seems to be a discrepancy between Jesus' command in Matthew 28:19 to baptize "in the name of the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit" and the apostles' consistent practice of baptizing "in the name of Jesus Christ" throughout the book of Acts.This compelling episode dives deep into this fascinating enigma, examining what Jesus truly meant when addressing His disciples before ascending to heaven. Through careful biblical analysis, we explore the possibility that Jesus wasn't dictating specific words to say during baptism but rather instructing His followers on what to do with proper spiritual authority. If the disciples who walked with Jesus himself baptized differently than many churches practice today, shouldn't we take notice?The significance of the name of Jesus emerges as a central theme throughout scripture. From Old Testament declarations that "the name of the Lord is a strong tower" to Peter's bold assertion that "there is no other name under heaven given among men by which we must be saved," we trace how the power and authority in Jesus' name was understood and applied by early believers.We also examine fascinating historical evidence showing how baptismal practices evolved over the first few centuries of Christianity, culminating in formalized changes at the Council of Nicaea in 325 AD. This raises profound questions about whether modern practices reflect apostolic teaching or later theological developments.Whether you've been baptized, are considering baptism, or simply want to deepen your understanding of biblical practices, this episode will challenge you to look beyond tradition to the patterns established by Jesus and His apostles. Study the scriptures for yourself and let the primary source material guide your understanding rather than merely accepting inherited traditions."Message Our Father's Heart a Question or Response"Support the showThank you so much for listening and sharing with others!

SEASON 4 EPISODE 2: COUNTDOWN WITH KEITH OLBERMANN A-Block (1:45) SPECIAL COMMENT: The United States of America does not have a functioning government. The Trump Dictatorship and the Library of Congress – Congress which Mike Johnson runs via a porn app – DELETED part of the official online edition of the Constitution – the part that limits the suspension of Habeas Corpus and bans presidents accepting foreign bribes. The Library says it was a coding error and would be fixed soon…ish. Yeah, the coding in Trump’s DNA. The White House had to DENY that the White House Chief of Staff was to meet last night with the Vice President, the Attorney General, the Deputy Attorney General, and the FBI Director to discuss what to DO about the Trump/Epstein cover-up scandal, and what to do WITH the RECORDING of the Deputy Attorney General’s two days’ of bargaining with a convicted pedophile and child sex trafficker… and nobody seemed to notice that the headline was that WHATEVER the Chief of Staff, A-G, Deputy A-G, and FBI Director WERE meeting with the Vice President ABOUT… the PRESIDENT WASN’T GOING TO BE THERE. There is no competent executive authority, no congressional or senate oversight, no reliable judiciary. The United States of America does NOT NOW have a functioning government. The nominal president has spent the last few days making up economic statistics and poll numbers and threatening his predecessors with prosecution for imaginary crimes punishable by death while wandering around the roof of the White House, and phoning in to a business network with racist moronity the content of which is just this side of a 19th century minstrel show, or continuing to get more and more in bed, figuratively, with a convicted pedophile and child sex trafficker, in a scheme to cover-up her crimes, her late partner crimes, and whatever the president’s role was or was not… in them. And the first and seventh people in the line of presidential succession were going to have dinner with their Epstein expert who just met with Gulaine Maxwell and the head of the FBI and the woman who RUNS the White House but NOT the president and you know it almost doesn’t MATTER if they were meeting to try to figure out what to do about Trumpsteen or not. By 3:14 PM Eastern the Library of Congress said Sections 8, 9 and 10 of the 1st Article were back online so, shrug emoji, I guess there are limits on emoluments and suspending Habeas Corpus… for now. Fifteen minutes later, however, there were still huge swaths of all three sections missing from the official online version of the Constitution. But coding. And so what, it’s just the ONLINE version, what’s the difference? Trump just fired the head of the Bureau of Labor Statistics because she wouldn’t delete the official online jobs numbers and will soon find someone to post fabricated numbers online which will then be accepted as real – and official – because they’re ONLINE. There is no functioning government, just a mediocre Public Relations firm. Understaffed. Trying to sell Edsels, Google Glasses, New Coke, and fascism. B-Block (40:00) THE WORST PERSONS IN THE WORLD: Acting NASA "Director" Duffy wants to put nukes on the moon, even though that was the plot of the re-make of the movie "The Time Machine" in which nukes on the moon destroyed the moon and rendered earth uninhabitable good call reality TV boy. The New York Times won't stop trying to make Harvard-Fetch happen. And the Trump Council on Lack of Fitness, the one Super Bowl star Saquon Barkley turned down membership on? The Council announced he accepted. C-Block (55:00) THURSDAYS WITH THURBER: Of all his great stories, the one that might have been the most likely to have been written in order to be performed aloud, I humbly offer you this week: "The Night The Bed Fell."
