Sen. Pete Ricketts praised customer service improvements and tax cuts on benefits, but declined to endorse ideas being floated to keep the system solvent.

In this eye-opening first part of a two-part series, host Simon Ward sits down with world-renowned running coach Bobby McGee and strength specialist Matt Pendola to tackle a frustrating reality many over-50 athletes face: while swimming and cycling performance may hold steady, running seems to decline more sharply with age. This isn't just anecdotal - it's a well-documented phenomenon that affects both male and female endurance athletes. The trio dive deep into the physiological, neurological, and cultural reasons behind this decline, setting the stage for practical solutions in part two. Key Point 1: It's Neurological First, Physical Second Your brain loses the ability to judge foot-to-ground distance, causing harder landings and longer ground contact times. Key Point 2: Running is Biomechanically Unique Among the Three Sports Unlike supported swimming and cycling with concentric contractions, running demands unsupported eccentric loading under massive forces. Key Point 3: We Do What We're Good At (And Avoid What We Need) Aging athletes gravitate toward endurance work while abandoning the sprinting, plyometrics, and strength training they desperately need. Key Point 4: 70% of "Aging" is Actually Inactivity Most performance decline attributed to age is actually due to lack of specific training - your greatest gains come from your greatest losses.   Connect with Bobby McGee Website - bobbymcee.com Instagram - bobbymcgeerunning Pendola Project - Run Form   Bobby also recommends the following books Endure - Alex Hutchinson The Transformational Power of Pure Intelligence Cory Reich Bobby is a consultant for STRYD power meters,  He highly recommends the Duo if you want state of the art mechanical data to work on your run   Connect with Matt Pendola Website - Pendola Project and check out his programs including a free movement improvement assessment and protocol Instagram: @PendolaProject Facebook: PendolaProject   Connect with Us If this episode resonated with you, share it with a training buddy or leave us a review on your favourite podcast platform.

AP correspondent Julie Walker reports Georgia's Supreme Court declines to hear Fani Willis' appeal of her removal from the Trump election case.

On today's program, Phil Sletten, Research Director at NHFPI gives us the lowdown on a recent issue brief looking at long-term state revenue trends. - Declines in state revenues to the general and education trust funds - Decline in business tax revenues - lottery revenue increases - decline in tobacco tax and liquor receipts revenue

Kia ora,Welcome to Monday's Economy Watch where we follow the economic events and trends that affect Aotearoa/New Zealand.I'm David Chaston and this is the international edition from Interest.co.nz.And today we lead with news fighting inflation may well be a downgraded objective in the face of political pressure. The consequences could be long-lasting and global.For financial markets, this week will be all about the US Fed's Thursday rate decision where now a -25 bps cut is widely anticipated, to try and weigh against the softening US labour market. The same day the Canadians will review their policy rate too where a similar -25 bps cuts is expected.And there will be central bank reviews in Japan this week (no change), Indonesia (no change), England (no change), and Brazil this week too.China will also review its key rates and no change is expected there either. And China will release a lot of August economic data too, including FDI data.Australia will release its August labour market update and a modest +25,000 rise in employment is anticipated. Our balance of payments data will be released on Wednesday (expect a larger deficit), and Q2-2025 GDP will be released on Thursday (expect a decline). And before that we will get the August REINZ data and a full dairy auction.But back in the US, the pessimistic turn continues. The widely-watched University of Michigan consumer sentiment survey delivered downbeat results in September, sharply lower from August and well below what analysts had expected. They had expected a turn lower but not by this much. Declines were strongest among lower- and middle-income households because concerns grew over business conditions, jobs, and inflation. Both short and long term sentiment fell back. This index is more than -20% lower than year-ago levels.Meanwhile, year-ahead inflation expectations held steady at 4.8% while the five-year expectations moved up for the second straight month to 3.9% from 3.5%.Canadian building consents were unchanged in July from June but down -8.2% from a year ago. But most of this was due to non-residential work; residential consents were up, especially in Toronto.We should probably note that there are trade talks going on in Madrid between the US and China.In China, August data for new yuan loans came in well below what was expected although expectations weren't high. It was the lowest amount of bank debt for an August since 2011, extending the current period of weak credit demand amid the weakening consumer debt demand and the prolonged crisis for housing. The debt appetite dropped despite central bank efforts to loosen monetary conditions and stimulate borrowing.In India, consumer inflation rose, as expected, but only to 2.1% and ending a ten month period where it fell consistently from 6.2% to 1.6% in July. Food prices were little-changed and had no effect on the overall result.In France, Fitch has downgraded their credit rating to A+ from AA- on Friday, citing political turmoil and rising debt.We should probably note that copper prices are basically back to levels they were at five years ago, which is double what they were ten years ago. At current production levels the USGS estimates that existing mines will be able to operate for the next forty years, and proven resources will last about 200 years. (But there are expected to be much larger resources yet to be discovered.) We will look at some aspect core mineral resources weekly, going forward. (H/T PDK)The UST 10yr yield is now at 4.06%, little-changed from Saturday.The price of gold will start today at US$3,641/oz, down -US$7 from Saturday. That is up +US$48 from a week ago. Silver had another spurt, now up over US$42/oz.American oil prices are unchanged at just on US$62.50/bbl, with the international Brent price firmish just under US$67/bbl, both up +US$1 for the week.The Kiwi dollar is at just under 59.6 USc and unchanged from Saturday but up +70 bps from a week ago. Against the Aussie we are also unchanged at 89.6 AUc. Against the euro we are holding at 50.8 euro cents. That all means our TWI-5 starts today at just over 66.7, little-changed from Saturday but up +50 bps for the week.The bitcoin price starts today at US$115,666 and down -0.6% from this time Saturday. Volatility over the past 24 hours has been very low at just on +/- 0.4%.You can get more news affecting the economy in New Zealand from interest.co.nz.Kia ora. I'm David Chaston. And we will do this again tomorrow.

Ben Ennis and Brent Gunning open by recapping the Blue Jays' loss that evened the series with the Astros, spotlighting Jeff Hoffman's ninth-inning struggles and questioning why he still gets the call. They also hit on Jason Alexander (no, not Costanza) blanking the Jays over seven scoreless, the lineup's issues without Bo Bichette, and José Berríos grinding through another solid turn. After the first break, they dig into reports that Kirill Kaprizov declined a massive extension and what it signals for the Connor McDavid discourse ahead of his 2026 free agency. Later, they react to Adam Silver's comments on rising viewing costs and the backlash from fans paying for full-game access. Plus, they touch on kickoff returns in the NFL being up and if that's actually good for the game.The views and opinions expressed in this podcast are those of the hosts and guests and do not necessarily reflect the position of Rogers Sports & Media or any affiliates.

Sean Combs, known as Puffy, P Diddy, or simply Diddy, remains at the center of intense public attention as his legal battle continues to unfold. Listeners may be aware that Combs has been embroiled in a high-profile federal trial in Manhattan, facing charges tied to sex trafficking, transportation to engage in prostitution, and racketeering. In a dramatic turn, his legal team confirmed this week that Diddy will not testify in his own defense, nor will his lawyers call any witnesses, opting instead to rely solely on evidence already submitted with the prosecution's agreement, as reported by AOL News. This strategic move means the burden of proof lies entirely on federal prosecutors, and the jury will soon begin deliberations, possibly by week's end.Over a six-week trial, more than 30 witnesses have been called, with allegations ranging from physical assault and sexual coercion to elaborate schemes involving drugs and hush money. Prosecutors continue to argue that Combs engaged in criminal activities over a decade, mobilizing employees to commit acts such as the alleged bombing of Kid Cudi's car and transporting drugs across states. Diddy, who maintains his innocence, could face a life sentence if convicted. His legal team maintains that all women involved were willing participants and are challenging the government's handling of evidence and leaks to the media. In October, his attorneys called for an investigation into these leaks, which included a video showing an alleged assault involving Cassie Ventura, Diddy's ex-girlfriend.Talk of a presidential pardon surfaced following Diddy's conviction on charges of transporting individuals for prostitution. Experts told Billboard and Billboard Insider that while some of Diddy's team are actively pursuing clemency, President Trump has stated he likely wouldn't pardon him, despite past associations. Legal analysts argue that acquittal on the more severe charges of racketeering and sex trafficking leaves room for appeals and clemency claims based on fairness under the old Mann Act.Beyond courtrooms, Diddy's Miami mansion was recently subject to a raid, sparking renewed tabloid interest. Rumors of a secret underground tunnel linking his Star Island property to Gloria and Emilio Estefan's home were dismissed by a Florida judge as “objectively frivolous,” with the Estefans denouncing the claims as both false and impossible, citing Miami's geography—a story detailed by RadarOnline.Social media remains ablaze, with fans dissecting before-and-after photos and even speculating about cloning and AI, as discussed on IMDb and FandomWire. Diddy himself, despite being behind bars, recently broke his silence with an Instagram post reaffirming his commitment to fight the charges, expressing trust in his legal team and the justice system.That's the latest on Sean Combs as of September 1, 2025.

New Hampshire is among the states targeted by the U.S. Department of Justice seeking information about its voting system. That includes the state's voter registration list. New Hampshire election officials have refused to hand over that information to the federal government, and now they are rejecting yet another request from the feds. As the Trump administration is weighing whether to deploy National Guard troops to additional American cities, Republican governors around the country are mobilizing troops at the president's request. What has Gov. Kelly Ayotte said about sending soldiers from New Hampshire? We talk about these stories and more on this edition of the New Hampshire News Recap with NHPR's Todd Bookman and the Boston Globe's Amanda Gokee.

This Day in Legal History: Starve or SellOn August 15, 1876, the United States Congress passed a coercive measure aimed at forcing the Sioux Nation to relinquish their sacred lands in the Black Hills of present-day South Dakota. Known informally as the "starve or sell" bill, the legislation declared that no further federal appropriations would be made for the Sioux's food or supplies unless they ceded the Black Hills to the U.S. government. This came just two months after the Lakota and Northern Cheyenne had defeated General George Custer at the Battle of the Little Bighorn, a major blow to U.S. military prestige.The Black Hills had been guaranteed to the Sioux in the 1868 Treaty of Fort Laramie, which recognized their sovereignty over the area. But when gold was discovered there in 1874 during Custer's expedition, settlers and miners flooded the region, violating the treaty. Rather than remove the intruders, the federal government shifted blame and sought to pressure the Sioux into surrendering the land.The 1876 bill effectively weaponized hunger by conditioning life-sustaining aid on land cession. This tactic ignored treaty obligations and relied on exploiting the Sioux's vulnerability after a harsh winter and military setbacks. Despite resistance from many tribal leaders, the U.S. government eventually secured signatures under extreme duress. In 1980, the U.S. Supreme Court in United States v. Sioux Nation of Indians ruled that the Black Hills were taken illegally and ordered compensation—money the Sioux have famously refused, insisting instead on the return of the land.Russian state-sponsored hackers infiltrated the U.S. federal court system and secretly accessed sealed records for years by exploiting stolen user credentials and a vulnerability in an outdated server. The breach, which remained undisclosed until recently, involved the deliberate targeting of sealed documents tied to sensitive matters like espionage, fraud, money laundering, and foreign agents. These records, normally protected by court order, often include details about confidential informants and active investigations. Investigators believe the hackers were backed by the Russian government, though they haven't been officially named in public disclosures.The Department of Justice has confirmed that “special measures” are now being taken to protect individuals potentially exposed in the breach. Acting Assistant Attorney General Matt Galeotti said that while technical and procedural safeguards are being implemented broadly, the DOJ is focusing particular attention on cases where sensitive information may have been compromised. He did not provide specifics but acknowledged that the situation demands urgent and tailored responses. Judges across the country were reportedly alerted in mid-July that at least eight federal court districts had been affected.This breach follows an earlier major compromise in 2020, also attributed to Russian actors, involving malicious code distributed through SolarWinds software. In response to both incidents, the judiciary has ramped up its cybersecurity efforts, including implementing multifactor authentication and revising policies on how sealed documents are handled. Some courts now require such documents to be filed only in hard copy. However, officials and experts alike have criticized Congress for underfunding judicial cybersecurity infrastructure, leaving it vulnerable to increasingly sophisticated attacks.The situation raises ongoing concerns about the security of national security cases and the exposure of individuals whose cooperation with law enforcement was meant to remain confidential. Lawmakers have requested classified briefings, and President Trump, who is set to meet with Russian President Vladimir Putin, acknowledged the breach but downplayed its significance.Russian Hackers Lurked in US Courts for Years, Took Sealed FilesUS taking 'special measures' to protect people possibly exposed in court records hack | ReutersA federal trial in California is testing the legal boundaries of the U.S. military's role in domestic affairs, focusing on President Donald Trump's deployment of troops to Los Angeles during protests in June. California Governor Gavin Newsom sued Trump, arguing the deployment of 700 Marines and 4,000 National Guard troops violated the Posse Comitatus Act, an 1878 law that prohibits the military from engaging in civilian law enforcement. Testimony revealed that troops, including armed units and combat vehicles, were involved in activities like detaining individuals and supporting immigration raids—actions critics argue cross into law enforcement.The Justice Department defended Trump's actions, asserting that the Constitution permits the president to deploy troops to protect federal property and personnel. They also claimed California lacks the standing to challenge the deployment in civil court, since Posse Comitatus is a criminal statute that can only be enforced through prosecution. U.S. District Judge Charles Breyer expressed concern about the lack of clear limits on presidential authority in such matters and questioned whether the logic behind the Justice Department's arguments would allow indefinite military involvement in domestic policing.Military officials testified that decisions in the field—such as setting up perimeters or detaining people—were made under broad interpretations of what constitutes protecting federal interests. The case took on added urgency when, on the trial's final day, Trump ordered 800 more National Guard troops to patrol Washington, D.C., citing high crime rates, despite statistical declines. The Justice Department has also invoked the president's immunity for official acts under a 2024 Supreme Court ruling, further complicating California's legal path.Trial shows fragility of limits on US military's domestic role | ReutersThe U.S. legal sector added jobs for the fifth consecutive month in July, nearing its all-time high of 1.2 million positions set in December 2023, according to preliminary Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS) data. While this signals positive momentum, long-term growth remains modest; employment is only 1.7% higher than its May 2007 peak, showing how the 2008 financial crisis and the pandemic stalled progress. Big law firms, however, have seen major gains: between 1999 and 2021, the top 200 firms nearly doubled their lawyer headcount and saw revenues grow by 172%.Still, the wider legal job market—including paralegals and administrative staff—hasn't kept pace. Technological efficiencies and AI have reduced reliance on support staff, and the lawyer-to-staff ratio has declined steadily. Some general counsels are now using AI tools instead of outside firms for tasks like summarizing cases and compiling data, suggesting further disruption is on the horizon. Meanwhile, superstar lawyers at elite firms now earn upward of $10 million a year, driven by rising billing rates and high-demand corporate work.Broader U.S. job growth lagged in July, with the BLS issuing significant downward revisions for previous months. President Trump responded by firing BLS Commissioner Erika McEntarfer, accusing her without evidence of data manipulation. On the law firm side, Boies Schiller is handling high-profile litigation over Florida's immigration policies, with rates topping $875 an hour for partners. Separately, Eversheds Sutherland reported a 10% jump in global revenue, citing strong performance in its U.S. offices and a new Silicon Valley branch.US legal jobs are rising again, but gains are mixed | ReutersThe U.S. Supreme Court has declined to temporarily block a Mississippi law requiring social media platforms to verify users' ages and obtain parental consent for minors, while a legal challenge from tech industry group NetChoice moves through the courts. NetChoice, whose members include Meta, YouTube, and Snapchat, argues the law violates the First Amendment's free speech protections. Although Justice Brett Kavanaugh acknowledged the law is likely unconstitutional, he stated that NetChoice hadn't met the high standard necessary to halt enforcement at this early stage.The Mississippi law, passed unanimously by the state legislature, requires platforms to make “commercially reasonable” efforts to verify age and secure “express consent” from a parent or guardian before allowing minors to create accounts. The state can impose both civil and criminal penalties for violations. NetChoice initially won limited relief in lower court rulings, with a federal judge pausing enforcement against some of its members, but the Fifth Circuit Court of Appeals reversed that pause without explanation.Mississippi officials welcomed the Supreme Court's decision to allow the law to remain in effect for now, calling it a chance for “thoughtful consideration” of the legal issues. Meanwhile, NetChoice sees the order as a procedural setback but remains confident about the eventual outcome, citing Kavanaugh's statement. The case marks the first time the Supreme Court has been asked to weigh in on a state social media age-check law. Similar laws in seven other states have already been blocked by courts. Tech companies, facing increasing scrutiny over their platforms' impact on minors, insist they already provide parental controls and moderation tools.US Supreme Court declines for now to block Mississippi social media age-check law | ReutersThis week's closing theme is by Samuel Coleridge-Taylor.On this day in 1875, Samuel Coleridge-Taylor was born in London to an English mother and a Sierra Leonean father. A composer of striking originality and lyricism, Coleridge-Taylor rose to prominence in the late 19th and early 20th centuries, earning acclaim on both sides of the Atlantic. Often dubbed the “African Mahler” by American press during his tours of the U.S., he became a symbol of Black excellence in classical music at a time when such recognition was rare. He studied at the Royal College of Music under Charles Villiers Stanford, and by his early twenties, had already composed his most famous work, Hiawatha's Wedding Feast, which became a staple of British choral repertoire.Coleridge-Taylor's music blended Romanticism with rhythmic vitality, often inflected with the spirituals and folk influences he encountered during his visits to the United States. He was deeply inspired by African-American musical traditions and maintained a lifelong interest in promoting racial equality through the arts. His catalogue includes choral works, chamber music, orchestral pieces, and songs—each marked by melodic richness and emotional depth.This week, we close with the fifth and final movement of his 5 Fantasiestücke, Op. 5—titled "Dance." Composed when he was just 18, the piece captures the youthful exuberance and technical elegance that would characterize his career. Lively, rhythmically playful, and tinged with charm, “Dance” is a fitting celebration of Coleridge-Taylor's enduring legacy and a reminder of the brilliance he achieved in his all-too-brief life.Without further ado, Samuel Coleridge Taylor's 5 Fantasiestücke, Op. 5 – enjoy!

As the world moves away from family, it would be nice if the Church were a beacon of light on a hill. For transparency, here is the transcript from the question given to the Comms Director: "When you first came on board the Church, there was a lot of online flak, should we say, and people even-- I've gotten a few questions here-- asking directly whether or not you support the Family Proclamation? And how was that for you when you first came on board? Has it improved, and how do you deal with that?" Website- cwicmedia.com

It's Thursday, August 14th, A.D. 2025. This is The Worldview in 5 Minutes heard on 140 radio stations and at www.TheWorldview.com. I'm Adam McManus. (Adam@TheWorldview.com) By Jonathan Clark Indonesian Christian leaders urge government to protect religious liberty Religious leaders in Indonesia are calling on the government there to protect religious freedom. This comes after a string of attacks on Christian buildings in the Southeast Asian country.  The Conference of Indonesian Catholic Bishops said, “Any act of intimidation, violence, or unilateral restriction of religious activities violates the law and undermines the fundamental values of life together as citizens of the same nation.” Indonesia is not currently on the Open Doors' World Watch List of the most difficult countries to be a Christian. However, it has appeared on that list in previous years. Anglican Church of Nigeria horrified by lesbian bishop in Wales The Anglican Church of Nigeria cut ties with the Anglican Church of Wales over its election of an openly lesbian archbishop named Cherry Vann who is in a sexual relationship with Wendy Diamond. Rev. Henry Ndukuba leads the Anglican Church in Nigeria. He said, “The Church of Nigeria believes that this moment calls for prayer for the Church of Wales, hoping that the Church of England will not follow in her steps. We should hold them in our prayers with a clear message that hope lies only in true repentance and godliness.” To its credit, The Anglican Church of Nigeria previously severed ties with the Episcopal Church in the United States over a similar situation.  2 Timothy 4:3-4 warns, “For the time will come when people will not put up with sound doctrine. Instead, to suit their own desires, they will gather around them a great number of teachers to say what their itching ears want to hear. They will turn their ears away from the truth and turn aside to myths.” British pro-lifer targeted a third time for praying outside abortion mill Police in the United Kingdom are investigating a woman for praying outside an abortion mill. It's the third time police have gone after Isabel Vaughan-Spruce, Director of the March for Life UK, over her silent prayers. West Midlands Police previously arrested her twice. Vaughan-Spruce won a settlement over the wrongful arrests worth about $17,500. However, officials continue to target her. Jeremiah Igunnubole, legal counsel for Alliance Defending Freedom International, said, “We will continue to robustly challenge this unjust censorship, and support Isabel's right to think and believe freely.” Could Supreme Court overturn homosexual marriage ruling? In the United States, Liberty Counsel recently asked the U.S. Supreme Court to review the case of a Christian county clerk. Kim Davis, the former Rowan County, Kentucky clerk, refused to issue marriage licenses to homosexual couples. She was the first victim to be jailed and sued following the infamous 2015 Obergefell ruling. The Supreme Court ruling legalized faux same-sex marriage nationwide. Liberty Counsel Founder and Chairman Mat Staver said, “Kim Davis' case underscores why the U.S. Supreme Court should overturn the wrongly decided Obergefell v. Hodges opinion because it threatens the religious liberty of Americans who believe that marriage is a sacred union between one man and one woman.” U.S. debt hits $37 trillion The U.S. national debt hit $37 trillion for the first time, according to a Tuesday report from the Treasury Department. The national debt is projected to reach 99% of the U.S. Gross Domestic Product this year which is the measure of the total economic activity within a country. The Peter G. Peterson Foundation noted that the debt amounts to $280,000 per household in America and is growing at over five billion dollars per day. Fewer Americans drink alcohol A survey from Gallup found that the percentage of Americans who use alcoholic beverages fell to a record low of 54 percent. Young adults are even less likely to drink alcohol at 50 percent.  And for the first time, over 50 percent of U.S. adults say drinking one or two alcoholic drinks a day is bad for one's health. That number is up from 28 percent in 2015. Young adults are even more likely to say drinking is bad for their health at 66 percent. Gallup noted, “Declines in alcohol consumption do not appear to be caused by people shifting to other mood-altering substances.” Answers in Genesis announces Truth Traveler attractions in Pigeon Forge & Branson And finally, Answers in Genesis is opening two new Bible attractions, one in Pigeon Forge, Tennessee and the other in Branson, Missouri.  The Truth Traveler attractions feature a 5D experience that blends cutting-edge virtual reality, motion seating, and sensory effects to transport you through pivotal moments in Biblical history. The website says, “Feel the ground shake as the floodwaters rise, stand in awe at the towering walls of Babel, and witness history unfold in breathtaking detail.” Ken Ham, the CEO of Answers in Genesis, said, “Please pray with us that these attractions will reach thousands of families with the message of the truth of God's Word and the Gospel.” Psalm 111:2, 4 says, “Great are the works of the LORD, studied by all who delight in them. … He has caused His wondrous works to be remembered; the LORD is gracious and merciful.” Close And that's The Worldview on this Thursday, August 14th, in the year of our Lord 2025. Follow us on X or subscribe for free by Spotify, Amazon Music, or by iTunes or email to our unique Christian newscast at www.TheWorldview.com.  I'm Adam McManus (Adam@TheWorldview.com).

This week, Ian and Joseph discuss the state of the S&P 500, the US Dollar, and Participation for major markets around all-time highs.

In this bonus episode, Jill and Ross touch upon two main themes significantly impacting the district: enrollment decline and graduation standards. We discuss how enrollment has dropped over the past half-decade and dive into those numbers. Ross and Jill then use analysis and insight from some of our first episodes in 2019 to touch on the key components of MassCore and why they matter for Boston Public Schools.  Enrollment Losses, A Startling Decline: Since the 2019–2020 school year, BPS has lost over 4,000 students, a 9.4% drop, making it one of the fastest shrinking large school districts in the country. Recent data from the Department of Elementary and Secondary Education suggests the trend may be even worse. At the same time, staffing in the district has grown by 12.7%, primarily driven by increases in non-teaching roles like administrators and paraprofessionals. This mismatch, fewer students, more staff, raises major questions about resource alignment and what the City and district are doing to stem the loss of students across BPS.  A New Graduation Standard - MassCore in 2025 On the academic front, BPS is in a moment of transition following Massachusetts' recent vote to remove MCAS as a graduation requirement. With local control now shaping graduation standards, BPS has chosen MassCore, a state-recommended framework aimed at aligning high school coursework with college readiness. Interestingly, this question links closely with a major study from the Boston Globe relating to how our district prepares our brightest students for the future. We are still awaiting data from this year about graduation rates and are keen to analyze how the similar standards for this past graduating class impacted rates. Adopted in 2021, MassCore includes requirements in math, English, history, foreign language, the arts, and more. However, implementation has been uneven: while MassCore completion rates have doubled in Boston, they still trail the state average by 30 percentage points. With no statewide graduation mandate in place, how BPS chooses to implement MassCore will significantly influence whether the district can deliver on its promise to offer our children a quality education.  Looking Ahead! Over the course of the next three weeks, we will be dropping our “Deep Dives” series about MassCore on our feed. These re-releases will build upon our discussion in this episode and expand into some other areas well!  The first school committee meeting of the 2025-2026 school year will be on September 10th at 6pm. We will be watching, listening, and recording! Until then, we hope you enjoy the final days of summer. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices

An NFL star running back has turned down President Trump's request to join his sports council. Correspondent Gethin Coolbaugh reports.

In a stunning shift not seen in five decades, net migration into the U.S. has turned negative—signaling a major change in the labor force and economic structure. This fiery monologue unpacks how Donald Trump's aggressive border enforcement is driving illegal immigrants out of the job market—leading to what the speaker claims is the largest wage growth for blue-collar Americans in 60 years. With 1.5 million foreign-born workers reportedly exiting since April and 1.8 million jobs gained by native-born citizens, the economic landscape is being reshaped in real time. The segment also dives into the political chaos surrounding tariffs, court battles over presidential trade authority, and the GOP's internal sabotage of Trump's nominees. From accusations of tax evasion schemes tied to illegal labor, to the shocking revelation that Republican Senate leadership—not Democrats—is blocking Trump's agenda, this commentary paints a vivid picture of upheaval on both the economic and political fronts. Listeners are warned to expect “funky” job numbers ahead, as America recalibrates to a post-mass migration economy, and Trump walks a tightrope between rallying his base and navigating hostile GOP leadership.

The latest S&P CoreLogic Case-Shiller report shows a second straight monthly dip in home prices, with Zillow forecasting a 2% drop in values through 2025. In this episode, Kathy Fettke breaks down what's driving the decline, from rising inventory to record-high price cuts, and what it could mean for buyers and real estate investors.

A new report that looks at gun violence in Minnesota found that gun deaths increased year-over-year in 2024. The analysis by Protect Minnesota found 564 Minnesotans lost their lives to gun violence in 2024. That's slightly up from 530 people in 2023.  It's in contrast to what's happening in the United States. CDC data shows a 5 percent decrease in gun deaths in 2024. More than 44,000 people died of gunshot wounds last year, compared to 46,000 in 2023. Joining Minnesota Now to help us dig deeper into this report is Maggiy Emery, the executive director of Protect Minnesota.
