Day 3 of the Brian Walshe murder trial revealed the most disturbing evidence yet. A Massachusetts State Police forensic scientist walked the jury through ten bags of garbage pulled from a dumpster near Brian Walshe's mother's apartment—and what investigators found inside tells a story the defense cannot explain away. A hacksaw with red-brown stains on the blade. Slippers soaked in what appeared to be blood with human hair still attached. Pieces of a rug covered in blood and human tissue. A Tyvek suit. Safety goggles. A hatchet. Hydrogen peroxide. Cleaning supplies. This wasn't panic. This was a kit. Prosecutors also showed jurors a photograph of Ana Walshe alive and smiling, lying on a green patterned rug in her living room, playing with one of her sons. Then they showed the jury pieces of that same rug—cut up, stained, and recovered from the trash. The prosecution called a life insurance agent who testified Ana held policies worth $1.25 million with Brian as the sole beneficiary. She received the highest possible health rating from New York Life. This was not a woman about to suddenly die in her sleep. Records custodians from Uber, Lyft, JetBlue, and U.S. Customs confirmed Ana Walshe didn't take a single rideshare, board a single flight, or leave the country after December 30, 2022. Brian told police she left for the airport on New Year's morning. That was a lie—one even his own defense now admits. The family Volvo tested positive for blood in five locations. Sixteen plastic gloves were found in the center console. Two child car seats sat in the back. Tomorrow, prosecutors are expected to call William Fastow—the man Ana was having an affair with, and the man Brian Walshe searched by name on Christmas Day 2022. This is day three. And the evidence is only getting worse. #BrianWalshe #AnaWalshe #WalsheTrial #TrueCrime #MurderTrial #CohassetMurder #TrueCrimeNews #WalsheEvidence Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Agents with U.S. Customs and Border Protection usually police the frontier. But since the summer, the Trump administration has deployed these agents, along with Immigration and Customs Enforcement personnel, to Democratic-led cities, often with combustive results. Leading these urban operations is Gregory Bovino, who has become the face of the aggressive crackdown.Host Elahe Izadi speaks with immigration reporter Marianne LeVine about the deep reporting she and other Post reporters did in Chicago, what they uncovered about who is being arrested, and what Operation Midway Blitz can tell us about this new era of immigration enforcement.Today's show was produced by Laura Benshoff.

Episode: NCBFAA Customs Committee Spotlight: 2025 Challenges, 2026 Opportunities & The Power of Community Host: Lalo Solorzano Guest(s): Sandra (Sandy) Coty — Customs Committee Co-Chair LinkedIn Mary Jo Muoio — Chair Emeritus LinkedIn Ralph De La Rosa — Customs Committee Co-Chair LinkedIn Lenny Feldman — Customs Committee Counsel LinkedIn Published: December 3, 2025 Length: Approx. 44 min. Presented by: Global Training Center — Website Episode Summary In this special collaborative episode with the National Customs Brokers & Forwarders Association of America (NCBFAA), Simply Trade highlights one of the organization's most active and influential groups: the Customs Committee. Host Lalo Solorzano is joined by committee co-chairs Sandy Coty and Ralph De La Rosa, alongside Mary Jo Muoio (Chair Emeritus) and counsel Lenny Feldman. Together, they unpack a highly dynamic 2025 driven by court cases, tariff unpredictability, modernization initiatives, and the ever-increasing complexity of trade policy. This episode reveals what the Customs Committee does, how it supports the entire brokerage community, and why their work is essential for businesses of all sizes. From interpreting executive orders, to producing toolkits, to being the “eye of the storm” during regulatory upheaval — this group ensures brokers stay informed, compliant, and ready for whatever comes next. The guests also look ahead to 2026, sharing expectations around tariff changes, new trade “deals,” evolving technology, and the crucial role of customs brokers as the industry continues to transform. Key Learnings & Themes 1. What the Customs Committee Actually Does The committee's primary mission is to provide clarity for NCBFAA members on anything related to CBP, trade policy, or customs requirements. This includes: Webinars, toolkits, and e-briefings Monday morning updates (now almost daily due to rapid change) Direct member support for complex questions Coordinated outreach to CBP, Treasury, USTR, and other agencies Flowcharts, FAQs, and practical guides to help brokers execute requirements accurately The group acts as a force multiplier, ensuring that one broker's question becomes clarity for all. 2. Wins and Progress in 2025 Sandy highlights several “first downs” toward long-sought industry improvements: Revenue modernization progress tied to the federal executive order Duty payment flexibility, including paying duties at any port in certain situations 10-day extensions for trade remedy-related entry rejections Improved ACE reports, including inbound, AD/CVD certifications, and low-hanging but highly useful enhancements Ralph notes additional recognition for NCBFAA this year: Sandy and another committee member were appointed to COAC CBP is increasingly seeking NCBFAA's input due to the committee's credibility and expertise 3. Guidance During Turbulent Policy Shifts Mary Jo emphasizes the committee's role as a stabilizing force: They provide institutional knowledge during times that feel overwhelming They help members understand complex topics like tariff stacking, enforcement spikes, and Supreme Court review scenarios They translate shifting rules into actionable guidance They ensure that small brokers have the same insight as large brokers The committee helps the industry “act like we've been here before,” even when the environment is unprecedented. 4. Tariffs, IEEPA, and the Supreme Court Case Lenny breaks down what's at stake: Whether Section 301/IEEPA tariffs remain valid Whether tariff authority is properly delegated Whether changes will apply prospectively or retroactively How brokers should handle refunds, protests, or revenue collection depending on outcomes His analogy: It all comes down to donuts, duties, and delegation — and whether tariffs are a “donut hole” in the statute or “a different kind of pastry.” Regardless of the ruling, the committee will deliver: Updated tools New flowcharts Best-practice guidance Member education sessions 5. Small Brokers Gain Big-Broker Capabilities A recurring theme: NCBFAA levels the playing field. Ralph shares examples: The AD/CVD certification toolkit Harp/Nice Harmonized Tariff Schedule sequencing toolkit Penalty and liquidated damages working groups Center of Excellence and Expertise outreach calls Direct lines of communication to CBP A small broker becomes instantly connected to subject-matter experts, best practices, and national discussions — a major competitive advantage. 6. Looking Ahead to 2026 Panelists expect: New forms of tariff collection Faster, deal-based trade agreements Increased use of AI and machine learning in compliance and enforcement More de minimis-related shifts into formal/informal entry channels Technology-driven expectations for brokers Greater pressure on revenue collection Higher need for accurate guidance, FAQs, and toolkits The brokerage role continues evolving — from “customs house broker” to customs concierge. Takeaways for Listeners NCBFAA's Customs Committee is an unmatched resource for practical, real-world customs compliance guidance. Even small brokers gain expert-level insight and decision support by being part of the community. The association provides stability during rapid regulatory change. The industry will continue evolving quickly — and NCBFAA helps members stay ahead, not behind. Involvement (even at the local level) returns far more value than it requires. Brokers, attorneys, carriers, and service providers all benefit from engagement. Resources Mentioned All references below include embedded official links.

It has been weeks since U.S. Customs and Border Protection descended on Charlotte. Homeland Security says agents detained about 400 people, but there has been very little transparency surrounding those taken into custody. We look at the impact of this operation on the Hispanic community and what the future may hold.

On this episode of Right On Radio host Jeff launches a new series called "The Understanding" and plays a 16-minute documentary that digs into historical scandals and alleged intelligence entanglements. The episode frames its investigation around the Franklin child-abuse allegations, the mysterious group known as "The Finders," and apparent parallels to the Jeffrey Epstein saga. Listeners are warned the program mixes documented records with strong rhetoric, and are invited to follow the evidence and decide for themselves. Featured voices and sources include archival reporting and interviews with figures such as Congressman Tim Burchett and former FBI station chief Ted Gunderson, plus references to investigators and whistleblowers tied to the Franklin Committee, photographer Rusty Nelson, investigator Gary Caridori, and others. The episode summarizes reported events: Lawrence ("Larry") King and the Franklin case in Nebraska, allegations of child transport to Washington, D.C., testimonies and purported photographic evidence, suspicious deaths that affected the probe, and newly disclosed FOIA material suggesting CIA links to members of The Finders. Key topics covered: the Franklin scandal timeline; the 1987 Tallahassee/Finders raid and subsequent U.S. Customs and DOJ handling; claims that FBI and other agencies suppressed or classified investigative materials; comparisons to MKUltra, Operation Mockingbird and known intelligence controversies; suggested connections between Craig Spence, William Barr, and other Washington players; and broader commentary on alleged media concentration, blackmail, and how powerful networks may protect insiders. The documentary also addresses extreme allegations raised by some witnesses, including claims of ritual abuse and trafficking, and explains how investigators and journalists responded. The episode closes with Jeff's commentary on how these historical threads might illuminate present-day power structures, a reminder that the program is listener-supported, and an encouragement to viewers to examine the documents themselves and engage critically. Expect a mix of archival evidence, pointed allegations, analysis of institutional behavior, and an invitation to discuss and investigate further.

NCBFAA Transportation Committee Spotlight: 2025 Wins, 2026 Priorities & Industry Insights Host: Lalo Solorzano Guest(s): Kim Calicott — NCBFAA Transportation Committee Chair - LinkedIn Rich Roche — NVOCC Subcommittee Chair - LinkedIn Donna Kavanaugh — Export Compliance Subcommittee Chair- LinkedIn Published: November 26, 2026 Length: ~ 44 min. Presented by: Global Training Center — globaltrainingcenter.com Episode Summary In this special collaboration with the National Customs Brokers & Forwarders Association of America (NCBFAA), Simply Trade launches a multi-episode series highlighting the critical work of NCBFAA committees. This episode features the Transportation Committee, covering NVOCC activity, export compliance, air freight, logistics, and the evolving regulatory landscape. Host Lalo Solorzano speaks with committee chair Kim Calicott, along with subcommittee leaders Rich Roche (NVOCC) and Donna Kavanaugh (Export Compliance). The group breaks down the major wins and challenges of 2025, key regulatory shifts, and what members should expect heading into 2026. Key Learnings & Themes 1. Transportation Committee Overview Kim explains the structure of the Transportation Committee and its four subcommittees: NVOCC Subcommittee (Rich Roche): Guidance on OSRA, FMC rulemaking, D&D billing, “clear as mud” interpretations, and a forthcoming NVOCC Best Practices Working Group. Export Compliance Subcommittee (Donna Kavanaugh): Monitoring regulatory activity from BIS, OFAC, Census, CBP, and DDTC while educating members on practical impacts. Air Freight Subcommittee (Donna Mullins): Infrastructure modernization efforts, partnership with the Airforwarders Association (AFA), and involvement in a GAO study on air cargo facility conditions. Logistics Committee: Watching driver shortages, truck/equipment tariff impacts, Electronic Export Manifest (EEM) development, and alignment with international systems like ICS2. 2. 2025 Regulatory Swing Highlights include: FMC's D&D Final Rule implementation and the section struck down by the courts. BIS tightening China-related controls and reevaluating rules inherited from prior administrations. Pause on the significant Affiliates Rule, which may reemerge in 2026. Changing rules related to firearms, AI, and Syria sanctions. “Clear as mud” advisory responses from FMC's General Counsel. 3. Advocacy That Makes a Difference NCBFAA's early engagement with agencies prevents harmful regulatory outcomes—such as removing unintended burdens on NVOCCs in OSRA's original wording. 4. Encouragement for New Participants Both Kim and Donna stress: No one starts out knowing everything Every question matters Committee involvement accelerates growth and strengthens the industry The association thrives on collaboration across company size, mode, and experience level 5. Looking Ahead to 2026 Key upcoming items include: Launch of the NVOCC Best Practices Working Group Ongoing work on EEM and air cargo modernization BIS rule reviews after the Affiliates Rule pause Continued focus on driver shortages and equipment tariffs NVOCC Day 2026 in New Orleans on January 22 Takeaways for Listeners NCBFAA membership is valuable for all trade professionals—brokers, forwarders, logistics providers, and affiliates. Exporting remains highly regulated and rapidly evolving—missteps can be significant. Committee participation is one of the most impactful ways to deepen knowledge and support industry-wide improvements. Agencies are shifting priorities quickly; staying informed is essential.

(Are you going to the Christmas market?)Od svätej Kataríny po vianočné trhy (Súhrn)Koncom novembra sa na Slovensku začína čarovné obdobie plné tradícií a sviatočnej atmosféry. V minulosti na Deň svätej Kataríny bola posledná tancovačka pred adventom a na Ondreja sa dievčatá snažili vyveštiť si budúceho manžela. Dnes sa tieto staré zvyky miešajú s modernými: adventné vence, vianočné trhy a kultúrne podujatia. November sa tak mení z pochmúrneho mesiaca na začiatok radostného, svetielkami rozžiareného obdobia.DialogueIgor: Marta, všimla si si tú vianočnú výzdobu v meste?Marta: Jasné!

(Really? How?)Marta: Roztápali olovo a liali ho do vody. Zo vzniknutého tvaru hádali, aký bude ich ženích. Igor: Haha, čudná zábava. Ale teraz vážne – čo plánuješ tento víkend?Marta: Idem s rodičmi na vianočné trhy. Dáme si punč a kúpime pár drobností. Ty?Igor: To isté! Možno sa tam stretneme.

Last week, news broke that roughly 250 U.S. Customs and Border Protection agents were headed to south Louisiana for an operation dubbed “The Swamp Sweep.”  As agents aim to arrest close to 5,000 undocumented people, fear and concern are growing within immigrant communities, and among educators and advocates. To help us understand what's ahead — and what rights people have — WWNO's Sara Henegan spoke with Marco Balducci, an immigration attorney in New Orleans, and Laila Hlass, professor of Immigration Law at Tulane University.Report cards are out for Louisiana's public schools. The state's overall score inched up again this year, and many schools earned higher grades. But that's expected to change next year under the state's new accountability system.WWNO and WRKF's education reporter, Aubri Juhasz, joins us to break down these findings.  __Today's episode of Louisiana Considered was hosted by Diane Mack.

Many residents at Wheeling's Village Board Meeting on Monday complained about the drones that began appearing this month. The DAILY HERALD reports that Agustin Salgado told trustees the machines are in the skies over residential areas “sometimes for hours at a time". Spokespeople for ICE, the FBI, and U.S. Customs and Border Protection say they have nothing to do with the drones.

From $400 million planes to $300 million ballrooms, from cryptocurrency to just plain… currency, President Donald Trump and his family have profited massively from his return to the White House. According to the Center for American Progress, the Trump family has received nearly $2 billion in cash and gifts since President Trump won the 2024 presidential election. This week, during Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman's visit to the White House, the president downplayed his family's dealings in Saudi Arabia, but the reality is that those business ties have grown significantly during his second term. For more on just how much money Trump and his family are making from his return to the Oval Office, we spoke to Andrea Bernstein, podcast host and author of "American Oligarchs: The Kushners, the Trumps, and the Marriage of Money and Power."And in headlines, President Trump threatens Congressional Democrats with violent rhetoric, Customs and Border Patrol prepares more immigration crackdowns in Louisiana and Mississippi, and New York City Mayor-elect Zohran Mamdani is set to meet with President Trump at the White House.Show Notes:Check out Andrea's book – wwnorton.com/books/american-oligarchsCall Congress – 202-224-3121Subscribe to the What A Day Newsletter – https://tinyurl.com/3kk4nyz8What A Day – YouTube – https://www.youtube.com/@whatadaypodcastFollow us on Instagram – https://www.instagram.com/crookedmedia/For a transcript of this episode, please visit crooked.com/whataday Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

U.S. Customs and Border Protection arrests hundreds of people in Charlotte, pulling them from cars, chasing them down streets. Homeland Security and Republican lawmakers say it's making us safer by removing criminals from our streets, yet we haven't been informed of any of the charges against those they've detained. These arrests have spread elsewhere in the state. Details on the week of operations.

Host: Cindy Allen Published: November 21, 2025 Length: ~12 minutes Presented by: Global Training Center Summary This week on Simply Trade: Cindy's Version, Cindy Allen unpacks a dramatic shift in global trade policy—one that touches everything from tariff reductions to new exemptions and unexpected reversals. Inspired by Taylor Swift's Everything Has Changed, Cindy explains how seemingly overnight, the trade landscape has transformed in ways that directly impact importers, customs brokers, and compliance professionals. From significant tariff rollbacks for China and Europe to new carve-outs for select products, Cindy walks through the week's biggest developments and breaks down what's real, what's promised, and what's still uncertain. In a moment where policies shift faster than supply chains can adapt, this episode brings clarity to the change—and perspective to the pace of it all. This Week in Trade • The administration announces a 10% reduction in tariffs on Chinese goods, including items previously subject to Section 301 duties • European-origin goods also receive reductions, with guidance forthcoming • CBP releases clarification on how these reductions apply operationally • Importers await confirmation on whether refunds will be automatic or require PSCs or protests • Supply chains begin recalibrating landed cost models and forecasting impacts New Trade Developments • China signals cooperation by easing rare earth export controls and increasing U.S. agricultural imports • The EU indicates interest in parallel reductions if the U.S. maintains consistency • Treasury and USTR state reductions are prospective, while refund policy remains under review • Early reduction categories include selected machinery, metals, and electronics • CBP urges importers to verify HTS classifications to ensure correct duty application Why This Feels Like “Everything Has Changed” Cindy highlights how quickly and massively the trade environment has shifted in just a few days. Overnight tariff reductions require importers to revisit landed costs, adjust contracts, notify customers, and reevaluate sourcing strategies. Customs brokers must reconfigure systems, classification profiles, and compliance workflows while fielding urgent questions from clients looking for immediate clarity. And with refund policy still unknown, teams must prepare for multiple scenarios, even as new developments continue to unfold. The cumulative effect: everything truly feels like it changed all at once. Key Takeaways • Tariff reductions could significantly cut duties for many importers • Refund guidance is still pending and may not be automatic • Accurate HTS classification is essential to capture reduced rates • China's concessions may signal a possible easing of tensions • The speed of regulatory change is accelerating across all fronts RESOURCES & MENTIONS • Global Training Center • TradeForce Multiplier Credits Host: • Cindy Allen – LinkedIn • Trade Force Multiplier Producer: • Lalo Solorzano – LinkedIn Subscribe & Follow New episodes every Friday.

Doug McHoney (PwC's International Tax Services Global Leader) is joined by Will Morris, PwC's Global Tax Policy Leader, from PwC's Global Transfer Pricing, Customs, and Indirect Tax Conference in Prague. Doug and Will discuss how trade policy now shapes tax outcomes, the G7 ‘side‑by‑side' debate for Pillar Two, and why geopolitics complicates an Inclusive Framework deal. They explore the EU's ‘simplification' agenda (FTT/DEBRA/Unshell pullbacks), overlapping anti‑abuse regimes post-Pillar Two, and whether real simplification is politically feasible. The conversation turns to Digital Services Taxes amid Pillar One uncertainty, potential US responses (including Section 301 and talk of Section 899), and the rise of Significant Economic Presence rules. They close with the UN's emerging convention, source‑based taxation of services, and the limits of AI and automation when dealing with unstructured taxpayer data.

This weekend, border patrol agents converged on Charlotte, North Carolina, in an attempt to remove illegal immigrants from the city per President Trump's order. DHS is calling it "Operation Charlotte's Web." Local leaders have released statements opposing the Trump administration's actions in the city, and called for protests against the agents. Ron Vitiello, Senior Advisor to Customs and Border Protection, joins the Rundown to explain why this needed to happen in Charlotte to keep its citizens safe. Homeownership feels out of reach for millions of Americans as prices soar and the median first-time buyer age hits historic highs. Howard Husock, American Enterprise Institute senior fellow, joins the Rundown to explain what's driving the crisis, whether ideas like 50-year mortgages or city-level reforms can help, and what it will take to make owning a home attainable again.  Plus, commentary by Guy Benson, host of The Guy Benson Show on Fox News Radio Learn more about your ad choices.

The Department of Homeland Security claims this is about ridding Charlotte of crime.
