The Department of Justice is trying to sell finality where there is still fog. After a chaotic rollout of Epstein-related materials, officials have framed the release as complete and urged the public to move on. But volume without structure is not transparency. Dumping massive amounts of material without clear indexing, consistent redaction explanations, and a verifiable accounting of what was withheld creates confusion rather than clarity. The public was promised a legally mandated framework under the Epstein Files Transparency Act that would identify categories of records, explain redactions, and specify which government officials and politically exposed persons were named. Instead, critics argue the process feels curated and defensive, more focused on narrative control than genuine accountability. Declaring “no more files” does not resolve outstanding questions about scope, missing categories, or investigative decisions—it freezes the narrative at a politically convenient moment.At its core, the frustration stems from a longstanding distrust of how powerful institutions handle cases involving powerful people. A serious transparency effort would provide traceability, context, independent review mechanisms, and precise legal justifications for every withholding decision. Without those guardrails, the release risks functioning as a containment strategy rather than a corrective one. Calls to “move on” land as dismissive because the underlying questions—who enabled Epstein, who benefited, and whether institutional actors were protected—remain unresolved in the public's mind. If the administration wants credibility, it must move beyond slogans and provide structured, auditable disclosures that withstand scrutiny. Otherwise, skepticism will continue, not because people crave drama, but because incomplete transparency invites suspicion.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.com

Our newsroom can reveal Parliament's Speaker's been filing incorrect property declarations for the past two decades. Gerry Brownlee last year amended 15 of his 19 pecuniary interests declarations, dating to 2005. But some changes still appear to be incorrect. The inconsistencies stemmed from failing to declare a property entirely - and even declaring one he didn't own. Newstalk ZB senior political correspondent Barry Soper explained further, and revealed whether Kiwis should be concerned. LISTEN ABOVESee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Let's look at how a renewed mind is imperative to declare the goodness of God.

The Benefits Of Declaring His Deeds

United Artists, a new company formed by Charlie Chaplin, Mary Pickford, Douglas Fairbanks and D. W. Griffith - four of the most powerful figures in early cinema - was announced on 5th February 1919. The movie trade press quickly labelled it a ‘rebellion' against the mainstream studios. Declaring their new enterprise would exist to “protect the industry from itself”, the Hollywood quartet took aim at an industry that depended on long contracts, vertical integration and strict talent control. They hoped to see a greater degree of creative autonomy and financial reward, but perhaps underestimated the difficulty of running a distribution company and the risks the studio system itself had absorbed. Existing contracts delayed releases, investors were wary, and the promise of artistic freedom collided with the realities of inconsistent output, experimental failure and changing technology, including the arrival of sound. In this episode, Arion, Rebecca and Olly consider UA's eerily prescient ambition to counter ‘machine-made entertainment'; discover how an experience selling war bonds helped inspire  the idea for the studio; and explain why, despite their success, the studio still missed out on ‘Gone With The Wind'...  Further Reading: • ‘United Artists: The studio that challenged and revolutionised Hollywood' (Far Out, 2021):  https://faroutmagazine.co.uk/united-artists-studio-revolutionised-hollywood/ • ‘Artists Unite Against the Studios' (Celebrate California): https://celebratecalifornia.library.ca.gov/february-5-1919-artists-unite-against-the-studios-2/ • ‘Chaplin, Fairbanks, Pickford & Griffith Signing United Artists Contract' (1919): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yEBZU_KHSM0 #Hollywood #1910s #Business #Film Love the show?

In this episode, we observe the anxious rumination in a man’s mind, as depicted in Sangam Literary work, Aganaanooru 174, penned by Madurai Alakkar Gnaazhaar Makanaar Mallanaar. The verse is situated amidst the pouring clouds and blooming jasmines of the ‘Mullai’ or ‘Forest Landscape’ and expresses the love and yearning in the hearts of those separated by circumstances. ”இரு பெரு வேந்தர் மாறு கொள் வியன் களத்து,ஒரு படை கொண்டு, வருபடை பெயர்க்கும்செல்வம் உடையோர்க்கு நின்றன்று விறல்” எனபூக் கோள் ஏய தண்ணுமை விலக்கிச்செல்வேம்ஆதல் அறியாள், முல்லைநேர் கால் முது கொடி குழைப்ப, நீர் சொரிந்து,காலை வானத்துக் கடுங் குரற் கொண்மூமுழங்குதொறும் கையற்று, ஒடுங்கி, நப் புலந்து,பழங்கண் கொண்ட பசலை மேனியள்,யாங்கு ஆகுவள்கொல் தானே வேங்கைஊழுறு நறு வீ கடுப்பக் கேழ் கொள,ஆகத்து அரும்பிய மாசு அறு சுணங்கினள்,நல் மணல் வியலிடை நடந்தசில் மெல் ஒதுக்கின் மாஅயோளே? This fragrant trip through the rain-soaked forests takes us in the presence of the man, as he says these words to his heart, when he remains in a battle camp: “Declaring, ‘Those who possess the wealth of courage to scatter the enemy army with one's own in the midst of a wide spreading field, where two great kings are waging war against each other, unfading would remain their glory', drums roar and floral war tributes are presented by the victorious king. Not knowing that I would rush to her, without even waiting for these tributes, that sorrowful maiden, would be feeling dislike for me, and she would curl up helplessly whenever the harsh-voiced, dark clouds resounded in the morning sky, shedding raindrops, and crushing straight-stemmed jasmine flowers blooming on mature vines. Pallor would be spreading on her form, so flawless, having beauty spots, in the hue of fragrant golden flowers of the Indian Kino tree. What would be the state of that dark-skinned maiden, whom I saw walking with short hesitant steps upon the fine sands of our wide mansion, when I left her then?” Time to travel to the battlefield and listen to the drum beat of the man’s heart! He starts by reflecting on how the king would honour his victorious acts in the battlefield of defeating the enemy army and shower tributes even as drums roar. The man says he would do his duty of fighting in the battle and bringing victory to his king but he wouldn’t wait to receive the king’s tributes because his heart would be in a rush to be back with his beloved, who would be worried that the season of promised return, the rains, had come and gone and still there was no sign of him. He imagines her curling up with pain every time the clouds roared and the rains poured. The man concludes by bringing back the image of the lady, with her fine beauty spots in the hue of yellow Kino flowers, as she was walking with hesitant steps, when he bid farewell to her, back then. A verse filled with tender longing on both sides, with the man tied by the norms of duty in a battlefield, and the lady, bound by the norms of society, to remain back at home!

God alone is enough—and He knows exactly what we need. This Crosswalk Devotional centers on Lamentations 3:24, reminding us that when we say “The Lord is my portion,” we’re declaring our trust in God as our ultimate source of security, provision, and contentment. Just as a portion is intentionally measured and given, God assigns what is perfectly suited for each of His children. In a culture that constantly tempts us to compare, compete, or crave more, this devotional gently redirects our hearts back to gratitude and trust. Whether our portion feels abundant or modest, we can rest in the truth that God never withholds what is necessary for our good. He supplies peace, strength, rest, and provision—always on time and always with purpose. Highlights God is our allotted portion—intentionally given and perfectly measured True contentment flows from trusting God as our Provider Comparison steals joy; gratitude restores it God fills every void that possessions never can Even seasons of lack are opportunities to grow deeper in trust God’s provision is personal, purposeful, and sufficient Declaring “The Lord is my portion” is an act of faith and surrender Do you want to listen ad-free?

Recently, we went to a local, favorite restaurant of ours where the servers knew our family by name. It was a small but vibrant eatery, where the food was always excellent. We were not only known for our frequent visits as a family, but also for our meal selections, especially the dessert. Once we finished our meal, it was a known fact that we would be ordering this warm, giant-sized, decadent chocolate fudge brownie surrounded by scoops of vanilla bean ice cream. The servers always positioned this delectable dessert in the middle of our table and then brought us four long spoons: one for me, one for my husband, one for my oldest son, and one for my youngest son. As soon as that dish of dessert hit the table, no one had to tell us to start digging in. It was a race to the finish! My oldest son seemed to have the advantage each time, as I observed the large amount of dessert that he was able to balance on his long spoon. My youngest son was struggling with maneuvering his spoon to fit both a piece of brownie and some ice cream on it. Sometimes he would get just enough dessert on his spoon, and then the dessert would fall off the side of his spoon before even leaving the bowl. For every one spoon of dessert that successfully made it to his mouth, his older brother had already eaten about three spoons full of dessert. I had to put an end to this. On our next visit, when it was time for dessert, I requested four small plates. And before anyone could put a spoon in the bowl of brownie and ice cream, I divided the dessert, placed it on a separate plate, and put it in front of each person. Every member of my family now had an appropriate portion of dessert that was allocated to each of us. When the biblical writer says, “The Lord is my portion,” the word “portion” in Hebrew carries the notion that something is measured out, allotted, or assigned. It’s almost as if there is a gift with your name on it because it is specifically set apart and given to you. In the life of a believer, there is a dependence on God as the ultimate source of security and blessing. As our Creator and Heavenly Father, He knows and understands our every need, and He gives each of us exactly what we need when we need it. He alone determines our portion. Whether large or small, it is perfectly proportioned and just enough for the one who receives it. It is our duty to celebrate and delight in the portion God has given. In doing so, we are honoring the God who gave it. Another connotation of the word “portion” in the context of God is divine provision. There are many people in this world who feel a void, and they try to fill that void with things that still leave them wanting more. When you believe that God is your portion, you believe that God is the source of your strength in every situation. There is contentment in knowing that He will supply all your needs. Even when there seems to be an area of lack, there is a calm assurance that God will step in to make up that difference. In response, there is no desire to seek any possession or comfort outside of God. There is an unwavering trust that God is in control of all your circumstances. There is a realization that nothing is as valuable as the promises of God. This signifies a close relationship with the Provider, and His goal is to use life’s circumstances to draw you closer. As you learn that God is your portion, you learn that your need for Him outweighs your desire for other things. When you need peace, God is the One who gives you peace. When you need rest, God alone will extend rest. When you need provision, God offers provision. He provides for you what no one else can, and everything He gives to you is a blessing directly from the throne of heaven designed just for you. “The Lord is my portion” is more than a declaration. It is an affirmation that God, our Creator, our Provider, and our Sustainer, is more than enough. Intersecting Faith & Life: It is often easy to look around at what others possess instead of appreciating what we have in front of us. Take a moment to thank God for His provision and recognize God as your portion.

What follows is a divine acceleration, reconnection with family, renewed hunger for the Word, a God-ordained fast, and an unmistakable call back into intimacy with Him. This episode is rich with:

One sentence. One moment. One career-defining shift. Here, Jessica Thurtell reveals how speaking your bold goals out loud early in your career and aiming high as a law graduate can completely transform the trajectory of your legal journey. In a recent episode of The Protégé Podcast, host Grace Robbie speaks with Jessica Thurtell, a consultant at Clyde & CO, about the defining moment early in her legal career when, during her first graduate rotation review, she declared her ambition to become a partner, discusses the reactions from those around her – from family members to fellow graduates – about her bold declaration and explains why saying yes to as many opportunities as possible can be crucial for building a successful legal career. Thurtell also emphasises the importance of young lawyers setting ambitious goals early and sharing them with those around them, explores which career goals are worth pursuing and how to balance achievable short-term milestones with long-term ambitions, outlines habits and strategies for staying on track despite inevitable setbacks, and highlights the power of mentors in guiding and supporting goal achievement.

What happens when college sports operate without anyone truly in charge?Exactly what you're seeing now.In this episode of Just Wondering with Norm Hitzges, Norm Hitzges takes on two developments that point to a looming breakdown in college athletics — and neither one has a clean solution.Norm begins with a court ruling involving former Alabama basketball player Charles Bediako, who declared for the NBA Draft, went undrafted, played professionally, and is now seeking to return to college basketball. A judge has temporarily ruled that the NCAA cannot stop him. Norm explains why this isn't just about one player — it's about the precedent. If this door stays open, what stops waves of undrafted football and basketball players from attempting pro careers, failing, and then pouring back into college sports with eligibility intact?From there, Norm pivots to college football's playoff mess. Despite widespread agreement that a 16-team playoff would have fixed most of this year's problems, the SEC and Big Ten failed — again — to reach consensus. Instead, financial motivations, conference power plays, and a proposed 24-team playoff loaded with byes killed progress. The result: a flawed 12-team system that left deserving programs out while frustrating fans who just want fairness and clarity.Throughout the episode, Norm returns to one central theme: the NCAA is powerless, university presidents won't act, and conferences are chasing money at the expense of the sport itself. When no one's willing to lead, chaos isn't a surprise — it's the outcome.Chapters00:00:00 – Just wondering about chaos coming to college sports00:01:38 – The Charles Bediako case and a dangerous precedent00:02:23 – Declaring for the NBA too early — and wanting back in00:03:12 – A judge says the NCAA can't stop it00:04:00 – What happens if this ruling holds00:05:00 – Undrafted players returning to college football00:05:58 – “We are talking chaos here”00:06:57 – The NCAA as a toothless tiger00:07:48 – Sponsor break: Bob's Steak & Chop House00:08:25 – Full Moon Healing Balm and aging realities00:09:10 – Why this year's College Football Playoff failed00:10:11 – Why a 16-team playoff made sense00:11:20 – The Big Ten's 24-team proposal and money motives00:12:20 – Why 24 teams is “way too clumsy”00:13:16 – Deadlines missed and progress stalled00:14:03 – Remembering the four-team playoff disaster00:14:52 – Power brokers vs. fans and the sport itself00:15:16 – Sponsors and closing thoughts00:16:08 – Final sign-offCheck us out: patreon.com/sunsetloungedfwInstagram: sunsetloungedfwTiktok: sunsetloungedfwX: SunsetLoungeDFWFB: Sunset Lounge DFW

Psalm 19 - Part 3 of "When In Doubt" - Sermon for January 25, 2026. Pastor Dennis Ticen

One of America's best defense attorneys just made the most unusual exit in recent legal memory. Alan Jackson told the court he was "legally and ethically prohibited" from continuing to represent Nick Reiner. Then he walked outside and told reporters: "Pursuant to the law in California, Nick Reiner is not guilty of murder." What circumstances force an attorney to withdraw while simultaneously staking his professional reputation on his client's innocence?The clues are buried in sealed documents. A confidential medical order. Ten subpoenas prosecutors aren't allowed to see. Three weeks of investigation that changed Jackson's entire approach—then ended with him handing the case to Deputy Public Defender Kimberly Greene.Nick faces death-eligible charges: two counts of first-degree murder with special circumstances. Sources confirm he was being treated for schizophrenia when his mother Michele Reiner and her partner were killed. He appeared in court wearing a suicide prevention smock. His medications reportedly aren't stabilized. At what point does mental health history become a formal competency challenge?Attorney Eric Faddis examines the evidence that's emerged—including gas station surveillance showing Nick calmly purchasing a drink hours after the murders. Prosecution sees consciousness of guilt. A defense signaling insanity sees something different entirely. Eric breaks down how both sides would use that footage, what Jackson's withdrawal signals about the defense strategy, and why DA Nathan Hochman remains "fully confident" in pursuing conviction despite everything.The arraignment is February 23rd. The sealed evidence remains locked. And Alan Jackson's public declaration hangs over this case like an unanswered question nobody in the courthouse is allowed to address.#NickReiner #AlanJackson #RobReiner #MicheleReiner #InsanityDefense #SealedEvidence #EricFaddis #TrueCrime #HiddenKillers #CaliforniaCourtsJoin Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

God's goodness is constant; there is no variation with Him. As children of a good God, we should have no problem declaring His goodness in every area of our lives. Join us as we continue our series, Declaring the Goodness of God.

What does it feel like to be approved of? To have someone you respect acknowledge you publicly as someone they are proud of. That can be extremely meaningful! In fact, many of us have walked through life longing for that very experience, and even comprising ourselves in attempts to gain it. The difficulty of all this is that we already have the thing we long for. Approval, acceptance, and love… it’s all found in Jesus if we just are willing to look to Him for it! Jesus received the public approval of His Father in heaven as He was baptized by John the Baptist. This would have been a joyous moment for Jesus, and encouraging to continue walking in obedience to a baptism of suffering that was still ahead of Him. His baptism was one of declaration instead of repentance. Declaring His approval of John’s ministry. Declaring the connection He has with the people around Him also being baptized. The Father and Spirit declaring the identity of the Son in perfect unity. What a beautiful display of God’s plan in motion! For us the question becomes how can we follow the example and call of Jesus? What does it look like to find our approval in Him? Join us Sunday as we dive into His word to see what He has to say about all of this! - Pastor Ben For this week's Scripture and notes: http://bible.com/events/49543681

Carl and Mike get back to Falcons talk as they continue to share more thoughts on Arthur Blank's press conference in which he addressed the firing of Raheem Morris being a full season evaluation and consulting firm saying there was lack of countability and poor communication within the organization. They also discuss Blank stating he believes in Michael Penix Jr. still being their franchise QB.

Donald Trump's refusal to walk back his regime-change rhetoric on Venezuela has now reignited international concern—this time over Greenland. Declaring that the United States needs Greenland “very badly,” Trump's remarks have intensified fears of a potential American move against the Arctic territory. Greenland is largely self-governing but remains part of the Danish kingdom, with Copenhagen responsible for defence and foreign policy. Denmark's prime minister, Mette Frederiksen, responded with an unusually blunt warning, stating that any US military action against Greenland would amount to an attack on a NATO ally—and could shatter the post-World War II global security order, which Stephen Miller seeks to disrupt at every juncture.

SEASON 4 EPISODE 46: COUNTDOWN WITH KEITH OLBERMANN A-Block (2:30) SPECIAL COMMENT: Well, that's it in sum, isn't it? He's "El Presidente" now, isn't he? Military Dictator. Succeeding Maduro. Until he finds somebody else to “run” it. Not the elected Vice President. Not the actual winner of the last election. Not the U-N. Maybe somebody he, in his dysfunctional haze, somebody he can trust. Maybe an oil executive. Or Elon Musk. Or Catturd. The invasion was illegal there, and illegal here. The kidnapping was illegal. Declaring we would run it is illegal. Naming a proxy dictator is illegal. As was his threat yesterday to the acting president that quote “if she doesn’t do what’s right, she is going to pay a very big price, probably bigger than Maduro” and calling for her belief that her country shouldn’t be invaded by another country breaking its own laws is quote “defiant rejection.” THAT’S illegal. It’s all illegal. That’s a lot of illegal – even for Trump. And I say this, hating Maduro completely. So he needs to be impeached, if not now then a year from now. Rubio can be impeached now for deceiving Congress about its approval. And both of them turned over to the World Court. And the ramifications are almost uncountable, including emboldening them to consider this in Cuba, Greenland, Iran. The poll numbers are terrible, and the risk to Americans of terrorism and violence are just as terrible. And maybe worst of all the evidence of linkage between Putin's strange silence about his ally Maduro, and Trump's dithering about Ukraine, is terrible too. But at least it produced a pretty good Olivia Nuzzi joke. ALSO: WHY DID THEY CHANGE THE TRUMP HEALTH COVER-UP STORY AGAIN? Five significant changes, about his MRI/CT, his cardiovascular health, and now the total of Cognitive tests he's gotten in just the last nine months. Three? Not two? He's really needed three tests in nine months? To repeat the insightful question from his niece Mary Trump: Why do they have to keep giving him cognitive tests? B-Block (40:00) THE WORST PERSONS IN THE WORLD: There's begging the new boss to let you keep your current job, then there's what CBS Legal Analyst Jan Crawford is doing for Bari Weiss to try to keep hers. Chuck Schumer comes out firing on Venezuela: with one-millionth of one barrel blazing. And just when you think Cheryl Hines can't get any dumber, Tucker Carlson tries to talk to her about vaccines. C-Block (50:00) THINGS I PROMISED NOT TO TELL: Will Ferrell did a great comedy bit at the L.A. Kings hockey game on New Year's Day and he did it for the pure joy of it. Which reminded me of the difference between amateurs and pros, and of the days when "Anchorman" was new and Will and I ad libbed a pretty good comedy bit that he said he really loved doing.

Join Dr. Marcus Brown as we wrap up our Believe series out of the gospel of Luke.

Our theme for The Connection Church in 2025, was to "stop & listen." This year, the Lord is telling us to declare His goodness in every area of our lives. Declaring the goodness of God begins with an understanding that God is indeed good! Psalm 107:1 says, “Oh, give thanks to the LORD, for He is good! For His mercy endures forever.”

GET YOUR TICKETS NOW! THRIVE in 2026 - Women's Event: https://www.youaremore.com Hey guys — welcome to 2026.I don't know about you, but something about this year feels different to me. Not just another fresh start… but a moment. A line in the sand. A decision point.So today, I want to ask you a simple but powerful question:What does December 2026 need to look like for you to honestly say, “Wow… that was the most epic year of my life”?Because here's the truth — I've asked myself that question for the last few years. And if I'm being completely honest? While there was growth… while there was movement… I didn't accomplish what I knew I was capable of.And I had to get real with myself.This episode is about what it's actually going to take to possess — not wish for — your dreams in 2026.I talk about why hoping isn't enough anymore. Why vision without action leads to frustration. And why this year is going to require radical commitment, not comfort.We talk about:Why you must see the vision, not casually think about itWhy clarity creates movement — and confusion keeps you stuckWhy continuing the same thoughts and habits guarantees the same lifeHow comfort, certainty, and growth are constantly in tensionWhy your kids don't just need your words — they need your exampleHow stacking small wins creates momentum that changes everythingI also share personal stories — from watching my dad work third shift while building a business, to realizing how fast time moves when my kids just turned 11.This is not about hustling harder.This is about deciding — once and for all — that you are done pushing your dreams down the road.2026 doesn't need to be louder.It needs to be intentional.If you've felt emotionally thin… worn out… or like the last season took more than it gave — you are not alone. But this year can be different.And it starts with a decision.

Episode Description: In this powerful episode, we dive deep into the transformative power of words and how what we speak over our lives can shape our reality—especially when it comes to finances and abundance. I open up and share my personal daily declarations that I speak with faith and intention every single day. These aren't just positive affirmations; they're rooted in biblical truth and designed to align my mindset, actions, and outcomes with God's promises of prosperity and increase. You'll hear the exact declarations I use, including: I am blessed to be a blessing My personal income is increasing My savings accounts are increasing I receive exceedingly, abundantly above all I could ask or think I attract God-inspired ideas that produce millions of dollars I am a money magnet Everything I set my hands to prospers and succeeds I honor God with my finances I have a growing financial portfolio If you're ready to shift your financial future by harnessing the authority of your words, this episode will inspire and equip you to start declaring increase over your own life. Tune in and discover how speaking faith-filled words daily can turn you into a magnet for blessings, opportunities, and wealth.

In this episode, Liv breaks down why what you declare carries more power than what you quietly desire and why silence does not protect your vision, it postpones it. This is not a manifestation episode. This is about authority, identity, and the nervous system shift that turns possibility into inevitability.If you are stepping into 2026 wanting more clarity, momentum, wealth, and leadership without second guessing yourself, this conversation will change how you claim what you want and how quickly reality responds.Inside this episode:✨ Why silence is often fear disguised as intuition

We get what we expect. Words have power to create. Words can shape our future. Words bring good things into your life. Prepare for the new year by learning to speak life giving declarations that can change the trajectory of your life. In episode 140, Dr. Brenda Caldwell teaches how to create a declaration that is easy to remember yet full of power to plant seeds of faith for goods to come into your life!The HOPE Zone...where there's HOPE for every situation!

Share a commentThe hush before the first carol was not empty—it was charged. We step into the holy place with Zacharias, incense curling upward, when Gabriel appears and declares that the long night is ending. This is where Christmas begins: with a promise spoken into fear, a calling placed on an aging couple, and the first shockwave of good news that will roll from a quiet temple to a manger and beyond.We walk through the world of Herod's Judea and the deep ache of barrenness that marked Zacharias and Elizabeth, showing how faith endures when culture misreads suffering. Then the scene opens: a once-in-a-lifetime priestly duty, a famous messenger blazing with authority, and a message rooted in Malachi's prophecy. Their son will prepare the people, turn hearts, and ready a nation for the Messiah. Along the way, we explore why angels matter without making them the main act—how Scripture positions them as servants of God's redemptive plan and why the first New Testament use of “good news” comes from an angelic voice.Doubt doesn't disqualify; it gets refined. Zacharias asks for proof, and Gabriel answers with presence: I stand in the presence of God. The sign is silence—hard, humbling, and holy—until promise becomes reality. When John is born, the sunrise from on high is named and the dawn truly breaks.

France’s ambassador to Israel Frédéric Journès said on the Haaretz Podcast that any postwar Gaza plan must acknowledge that completely disarming and ridding the Strip of Hamas militia members is not an achievable goal. “You're not going to eliminate all of those people, so you basically need to find them a job in local police, find them a little job in society and de-radicalize them to the greatest extent possible,” he contended. This is possible, he said, because over the course of the war, Israel “got rid of the leadership." Journès, who has been France’s envoy to Israel since July 2023, sat down for a wide-ranging interview with host Allison Kaplan Sommer and Haaretz diplomatic correspondent Liza Rozovsky, discussing Gaza, Lebanon, Iran and antisemitism in France. The ambassador also explains why he believes the four countries strengthened by the past two years of war are Israel, Saudi Arabia, Turkey and Egypt. Pressed on the podcast as to whether he supports renewing strikes on Iran aimed at its ballistic missile program, which Israel reportedly desires, Journès replied, “I'm not saying that. I will see what will happen.” Read more: Opinion by Frédéric Journès | Declaring a Palestinian State Is a Blow to Terror Opinion by Frédéric Journès | Israel, Help Us Protect Our Seas and Oceans U.S. Leaning Toward Setting Up Palestinian-run Regime for Gaza Before International Forces Saudi, French and U.S. Officials Discuss Hezbollah Disarmament With Lebanese Army Chief France Demands Heightened Security Measures at French Consulate in Jerusalem After Israeli MKs Harass StafferSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

From crime-solving in a surveillance state to unanswered questions in the Brown University shooting — and then straight into the bombshell revelations surrounding the Mar-a-Lago raid — Tara connects the dots others won't. This episode explores how technology can both deliver justice and enable abuse, why delayed investigations matter, and how a single uncorroborated accusation became grounds for federal raids. The stakes? Nothing less than due process in America.

As we head into a new year, Chris and Melissa wanted to revisit a conversation that has quietly shaped their family more than almost anything else: the power of language. This idea — that language creates — was one of the very first topics ever discussed on The Family Brand Podcast, and it's still one of the most talked-about episodes to this day. Because once you see it, you can't unsee it. In this episode, Chris explains why language is never neutral. The words we use are either rooted in possibility or anchored in limitation — and over time, they shape our beliefs, our behaviors, our marriages, our kids, and even what we believe is possible for our lives. Melissa shares real-life moments where she's seen language create identity — including a powerful story about how a single sentence labeled one of their children as "shy," and how quickly that label became part of his self-story. Together, they unpack how easily we talk ourselves out of what we want by using phrases like "I should," "I need to," or "that could never work." They also explore how we often spend far more energy talking about what we don't want, don't like, don't have, or what isn't working — and how simply shifting our language can begin to change how life occurs for us. From an Uber conversation about health, to a heartbreaking post about a mother who hadn't seen her daughter in 14 years, this episode brings the concept of language into everyday life. This isn't about toxic positivity or pretending things are perfect. It's about awareness. It's about noticing the words you use — with yourself, with your spouse, and with your kids — and asking whether they're creating freedom or reinforcing fear. As Chris says, "If you upgrade your language, you upgrade your life." And as a family, that's a powerful place to start.   LINKS: All Links Family Brand!  stan.store/familybrand familybrand.com/quiz familybrand.com/retreats.  Episode Minute By Minute: 00:00 – Holiday season, basketball season, and family life right now 01:45 – Why this conversation matters heading into a new year 02:30 – Revisiting one of the most impactful Family Brand episodes ever 03:10 – "Language creates" — what that actually means 04:10 – Words create either possibility or limitation 05:10 – How language shapes the culture of your home 06:00 – The Uber story: "I should go to the gym" 07:40 – Anchored in limitation vs. rooted in possibility 08:40 – Why guilt and shame don't create change 10:10 – The four language traps: don't want, don't have, don't like, isn't working 11:30 – Shifting energy toward what does work 13:10 – A heartbreaking story about language and impossibility 15:00 – Declaring what you want — then ripping the seed out 16:30 – Why staying limited feels safer than change 18:20 – Language creates identity (the "shy" story) 20:00 – How parents unintentionally label their kids 21:45 – Upgrading language without guilt or pressure 23:10 – Social media, negativity, and reinforcing limitation 24:30 – A simple experiment: change your language for one week 25:45 – Helping your kids shift language without correcting them 26:45 – Final takeaway: talk about what works 27:20 – Family Brand Quiz + free PDF invitation

Chamberlain's Progressive Presidency at Bowdoin College — Ronald White — Chamberlain returned to Bowdoin College as president, respected by figures like Ulysses S. Grant. He immediately advocated for bold institutional changes, declaring the college had "touched bottom." His progressive vision included introducing science, establishing a medical school, and implementing co-education for women—measures that frequently met alumni resistance. Despite administrative pressures, he remained a highly sought-after and eloquent public speaker.
