For decades, service members and their families have been exposed to hazardous conditions and privatized military housing. The Change the Air Foundation recently launched what's probably one of the most comprehensive efforts yet to collect data. The Defense Department has never been able to track accurately what military spouses say. It's a survey created by families, for families.

The number of federal employees exiting the government this year continues to grow. The Partnership for Public Service has added thousands more to its running tally of how many feds have left their jobs since January. The latest estimate surpasses 211,000 employees who are either already gone, or who may exit soon. The organization says the increase comes from the layoffs agencies announced earlier this month ... although those are being temporarily blocked. There were also some updated numbers on how many Defense Department personnel have taken a deferred resignation.

After two incredibly long years, we are finally able to celebrate the return of all living Israeli hostages from the hell of Hamas. Absent specifics and relying on a long history of failed “new beginnings” in the Middle East, Trump's 20-point Peace Plan begs the question, what comes next? With a successful Phase One and a fragile Phase Two, it is with cautious optimism that we ask: how will disarmament and demilitarization be successfully carried out in Gaza? What does this mean for Israeli politics and the looming election? And how will Western leftist groups react to the end of the fake “genocide”? Dan Senor currently serves as the Chief Public Affairs Officer at Elliott Investment Management in addition to hosting his own podcast, Call Me Back. Mr. Senor served as a senior advisor to U.S. Senator Mitt Romney and former U.S. Speaker of the House Paul Ryan in their campaigns for national office. During the presidential administration of George W. Bush, Mr. Senor was based in Baghdad, where he served as chief spokesperson for the U.S.-led coalition in Iraq. Before that, he was a senior Defense Department official based in US Central Command in Qatar. Read the transcript here.Subscribe to our Substack here.

Welcome to your weekly UAS News Update. We have three stories for you this week: the FCC is set to vote on new rules that could impact covered list entities, DJI is appealing the "Chinese Military Company" court ruling, and we have a drones-for-good story out of New York. Let's get to it.First up, FCC Chairman Brendan Carr announced that the agency will vote on October 28th to close two major loopholes that companies on the "Covered List" have been using. The proposed rules would do two things. First, they would prohibit the authorization of any new devices that contain component parts from a Covered List company. And second, they would give the FCC the power to revoke previously issued authorizations in specific cases. This vote is happening just as DJI faces a December 23rd deadline from the National Defense Authorization Act. If a security review isn't completed by then, DJI automatically gets added to the FCC's Covered List. This is a direct shot at the strategy we've been discussing, with companies like Skyany, Skyrover, and Jovistar popping up with what are essentially rebranded DJI drones. According to the press release from the FCC, there may be an NPRM to follow, but the new rules could also prevent the import and sale of devices already approved.Next up, in a related story, DJI is appealing a federal court decision that kept it on the Pentagon's “Chinese Military Company” list. This is a really interesting case because DJI is in a legal paradox where it seems to have won based on the facts but lost in court. On September 26th, a D.C. District Court judge ruled that DJI would remain on the list, BUT the judge's decision explicitly rejected most of the Defense Department's core allegations. The court found no evidence that DJI is owned or controlled by the Chinese Communist Party or that it's linked to a military-civil fusion enterprise.The court only upheld two of the Pentagon's claims. The first was that DJI holds a "National Enterprise Technology Center" status, which the court acknowledged is widely granted to innovative tech companies, including U.S. ones. The second was that DJI products have "substantial dual-use applications," which is true for tons of off-the-shelf technology. Critically, the court found no evidence of actual misuse by the Chinese military. Despite all this, the judge deferred to the Pentagon's “broad discretion” on national security, keeping the label in place. This designation restricts federal contracts and spooks the private sector, which is a major problem when DJI still controls about 76% of the U.S. consumer drone market. And finally this week, a drones-for-good story! The Olean Police Department in upstate New York used a thermal drone to rescue three kayakers in distress on the Allegheny River. The distress call came in just before 8 p.m., and in the darkness, a traditional search would have been incredibly difficult. Instead, police and fire personnel quickly deployed their drone, which appears to have been a Mavic 3 Thermal. Within minutes, the drone's thermal sensor picked up the heat signatures of two of the kayakers in the cool water. This dramatically cut down the search time and likely prevented hypothermia. The search teams then shifted to the surrounding woods and located the third person on land. And this week on Post-flight, the show in the Premium Community where we share our opinions, we'll talk about these stories and a $500 million counter-drone program for the upcoming World Cup. Have a great weekend, and we'll see you on Monday for the live! https://docs.fcc.gov/public/attachments/DOC-415068A1.pdfhttps://dronexl.co/2025/10/14/dji-appeals-court-ruling-pentagon-chinese-military-company/https://dronexl.co/2025/10/12/fcc-vote-kill-dji-shell-company-strategy-december-ban-deadline/https://www.wgrz.com/article/news/local/olean-police-rescue-kayakers-in-distress-with-drone-technology/

A fragile but momentous ceasefire has taken effect in Israel's two year war against Hamas, following the terror group's brutal attack on October 7th. With hostages and prisoners exchanged and hostilities paused, the hard work of forging a lasting peace begins. Dan Senor, host of the Israeli news and politics podcast, “Call Me Back,” joins Preet to discuss the diplomatic negotiations and military strategy that got us here and what's next for the region. He previously served in the Defense Department based in the Middle East in the early 2000s, and later as a senior advisor to Mitt Romney's presidential campaign, and Paul Ryan's vice presidential campaign.  Then, Preet answers listener questions about the latest developments in the Kilmar Abrego Garcia case and the unusual political message showing up at airport security checkpoints. In the bonus for Insiders, Senor addresses the prospect of military tribunals for Hamas leaders and systematic deradicalization efforts.  Join the CAFE Insider community to stay informed without hysteria, fear-mongering, or rage-baiting.

Today's Headlines: We're now on day 16 of the government shutdown, and Republican leaders are hinting it could drag on until Thanksgiving — casually blaming holiday travel chaos while admitting they're not even thinking about reopening the government. Meanwhile, OMB Director Russell Vought says the administration plans to fire 10,000 federal workers, though a federal judge just ruled they can't do that during a shutdown. While public employees go unpaid, the administration is finding cash for others — promising a “clever and generous” $10 billion bailout for farmers hit by the trade war with China once the shutdown ends, and another $20 billion to prop up Argentina's crumbling economy. Priorities! At the Pentagon, dozens of journalists turned in their press badges rather than sign Pete Hegseth's “state media” pledge requiring them to only report what the Defense Department approves — a move even Fox wouldn't touch. Over at the Supreme Court, justices heard a major case that could gut the Voting Rights Act by striking down race-based map protections — potentially flipping a dozen Democratic House seats in the South right before the 2026 midterms. Meanwhile, an Ohio GOP congressman's office was found to have a flag featuring a swastika intertwined with the American flag visible on a Zoom call. He blamed it on “vandalism,” because apparently random Nazi décor just appears in people's offices now. And finally, the yacht formerly known as the Lady Ghislaine — once owned by Robert Maxwell (yes, Ghislaine's dad) and now Rupert Murdoch's ex-wife's — caught fire in D.C. yesterday. Officials say it was electrical. Okay then.  Resources/Articles mentioned in this episode: Politico: Thanksgiving travel looms as shutdown risk, GOP leaders say - Live Updates Axios:  Federal firings could reach 10,000 during shutdown, Vought says AP News: Live updates: Judge blocks Trump administration from firing during shutdown Axios: Exclusive: "Clever and generous" farm bailout coming, Hassett says WaPo: Bessent says bailout for Argentina will double to boost U.S. influence in region The Wrap: Pentagon Reporters Turn In Press Badges as Pete Hegseth Restrictions Take Effect – but 'the Work Continues' NYT: Justices Seemed Open to Further Limiting the Voting Rights Act NBC News: Republican congressman calls flag with swastika displayed in his office 'vile' and says it's under investigation Telegraph: Yacht named after Ghislaine Maxwell catches fire in Washington DC Morning Announcements is produced by Sami Sage and edited by Grace Hernandez-Johnson Learn more about your ad choices.

Political Discussion – “Schumer Shutdown”: Cruz and Ferguson argue that Democrats, led by Senator Chuck Schumer, are responsible for keeping the government closed. They portray Republicans as trying to reopen the government, while Democrats allegedly refuse. President Trump is praised for redirecting Defense Department funds to pay service members during the shutdown — presented as undermining Democrats’ political strategy. Cruz claims Democrats want taxpayer-funded health care for undocumented immigrants and are motivated by political self-preservation rather than governance. They assert the shutdown will last until after the “No Kings Rally,” described as a left-wing anti-Trump protest in D.C. Advertising Segment: The conversation temporarily shifts into a sponsor ad for “Backyard Butchers,” promoting American ranchers and criticizing “Big Ag.”→ This is a common podcast monetization interlude framed around populist “buy American” messaging. Continuation of Shutdown Debate: Cruz describes the hardship for unpaid federal workers. The conversation emphasizes that Democrats’ alleged political games are causing unnecessary suffering. Cruz speculates the shutdown will only end once moderate or retiring Democrats break ranks. Tribute Segment – Charlie Kirk’s Memorial: The second half of the podcast focuses on Charlie Kirk’s posthumous Medal of Freedom ceremony. Cruz recounts the event in emotional, spiritual terms, highlighting Erica Kirk’s (his widow’s) public forgiveness of Kirk’s killer. He frames this as a Christian act of grace and gospel testimony. The conversation portrays Kirk as a “martyr for truth and freedom,” comparing him to historical figures like Socrates, Lincoln, and Martin Luther King Jr. President Trump’s remarks are quoted extensively, celebrating Kirk as a visionary and moral hero. The discussion closes with reflection on Kirk’s influence on youth, his faith, and his perceived role as a symbol of conservative moral strength. Please Hit Subscribe to this podcast Right Now.

On today's podcast:1) Hamas freed seven living Israeli hostages from the Gaza Strip on Monday morning, following a US-led deal reached late last week. The Palestinian militant group released them to the International Committee of the Red Cross and they were then passed over to the Israeli military. The rest of the living hostages, 13 in total, are expected to be freed later in the day. Around 10 a.m. Israel time, the Israeli military said the Red Cross is on its way to an additional meeting point in the southern Gaza Strip, where several more hostages will be handed over. The release of the first hostages came just before President Trump’s arrival in Israel for a Middle East trip to celebrate the ceasefire deal clinched last week, also with Egyptian, Qatari, Turkish mediation. Trump has said the agreement should end the devastating two-year conflict in Gaza.2) President Trump’s administration signaled openness Sunday to a deal with China to quell fresh trade tensions while also warning that recent export controls announced by Beijing were a major barrier to talks. Vice President JD Vance called on Beijing to “choose the path of reason” in the latest spiraling trade fight between the world’s two leading economies, claiming that Trump has more leverage if the fight drags on. Trump later posted a statement that hinted at a possible off-ramp for Chinese President Xi Jinping while issuing a veiled threat that a full trade war would wound China.3) President Trump said he is directing the Defense Department to use funds his administration has identified to deliver paychecks to US troops on Oct. 15 despite the ongoing government shutdown. More than a quarter of a million federal employees missed scheduled paychecks this week, with another 2 million expected to go without pay by next week, which would be the third week of the shutdown. Under current law, US troops aren’t guaranteed backpay during a shutdown, unlike civilian employees. The Pentagon’s next military payday, Oct. 15, was shaping up as a key pressure point in the ongoing standoff between Republicans and Democrats over a stopgap spending measure.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

With expert insights from researcher Annie Jacobson, Clint explores the harrowing details of what could unfold if a nuclear conflict were to erupt, emphasizing the urgency of understanding the gravity of the situation without succumbing to fear. Listeners will be captivated by the vivid descriptions of devastation, as Clint recounts the catastrophic effects of a nuclear strike, including the immediate loss of life and the ensuing chaos. Drawing from Jacobson's research, he paints a picture of a world transformed into a landscape of fire and despair, where survival becomes a primal struggle amidst the collapse of civilization. However, amidst the darkness, Clint offers a message of hope rooted in faith. He reassures listeners that while the prospect of nuclear war is daunting, Christians need not live in dread. Instead, he encourages a reflective approach—considering the possible outcomes while trusting in God's sovereignty. Through a biblical lens, Clint examines passages from Revelation, pondering their relevance to today's geopolitical tensions and the possibility of war. As the episode unfolds, Clint emphasizes the importance of staying grounded in faith and engaging with the world through the lens of the Gospel. He challenges listeners to actively share their faith, moving those around them closer to Jesus, especially in uncertain times. This episode is a powerful reminder of the call to evangelism and the hope found in Christ, even as we navigate the complexities of a world fraught with potential peril. Join Clint for this enlightening discussion that balances the weight of global issues with the assurance of divine purpose, encouraging us to remain steadfast in our mission to spread the love of Jesus.

Story of the Week (DR):War against women continues: Uber Not Responsible for Sex Assault, Jury Finds, as More Cases FollowEthan P. Schulman, the judge presiding over the California state court cases, told jurors that Uber would be responsible for the woman's harm if the company was negligent in using adequate safety measures and the negligence was a “substantial factor” in causing the harm.In its decision, the jury unanimously agreed that Uber had been negligent in its general safety practices when the incident occurred in 2016 — but that the negligence was not a substantial factor in causing the attack.

As the United Nations General Assembly opened in New York, President Donald Trump told member states that immigration and green hoaxes are the key threats to international peace and prosperity. Also: today's stories, including whether the rebranding of the Defense Department comes alongside other interventionist moves, where money from settlement claims brought by the Trump Administration against universities will end up, and how Venezuelans seeking a haven from their country's chaos are turning to Spain for safety. Join the Monitor's Ira Porter for today's news.

The Defense Department's Cybersecurity Maturity Model Certification (CMMC) effort has uncovered that many contractors are unaware of export control violations, which could lead to significant legal and financial penalties. As the certification becomes mandatory, early assessments indicate common violations of the International Traffic in Arms Regulation and Export Administration Regulations. Contractors are urged to map controlled, unclassified information and review data controls to identify and mitigate these violations before audits occur. This highlights the critical need to integrate export compliance with cybersecurity measures.Meanwhile, Congress is experimenting with Microsoft's AI chatbot, CoPilot, as part of an initiative to incorporate artificial intelligence into legislative operations. This move has sparked concerns among critics regarding the potential risks of misinformation and privacy hazards associated with using experimental technology in governance. Additionally, Congress faces challenges in renewing a vital cyber threat information sharing program, which is set to expire soon, raising alarms about the implications for national cybersecurity efforts.On the cybersecurity front, artificial intelligence is increasingly being exploited by criminal hackers, leading to a new era of sophisticated attacks. Generative AI technologies are being used to craft convincing phishing scams and manipulate everyday tools to execute attacks without triggering security alerts. Recent incidents have demonstrated the effectiveness of these tactics, emphasizing the need for heightened vigilance and advanced security measures to protect against evolving threats.In the realm of technology, companies like Notion, Google, and Zoom are embedding powerful AI features into their platforms, fundamentally changing how users interact with these tools. Notion's new AI agent can autonomously perform tasks, while Google has integrated its Gemini AI into Chrome for enhanced usability and security. Zoom is set to introduce photorealistic AI avatars for meetings, showcasing the rapid adoption of AI in everyday applications. As these tools become the new baseline, IT service providers must adapt by focusing on governance, compliance, and security to ensure that their clients can safely navigate this evolving landscape. Four things to know today 00:00 Compliance Blind Spots, Political Delays, and AI Experiments Show Why IT Providers Must Be the Steady Hand05:02 Generative AI Fuels Phishing and Supply Chain Attacks While SonicWall and WatchGuard Struggle With Flaws09:08 Notion, Google, and Zoom Push AI Deeper Into Everyday Tools12:43 Ingram Micro Credits Xvantage for Ransomware Recovery, but MSPs Should Focus on Client Continuity This is the Business of Tech.  Supported by:  scalepad  Webinar:   https://bit.ly/msprmail All our Sponsors: https://businessof.tech/sponsors/ Do you want the show on your podcast app or the written versions of the stories?

Nia and Aughie discuss the legal and Constitutional answers to the question: Can President Trump rename the Department of Defense?

Inflation posted a 2.9% annual rate in August, up from 2.3% in April. Job creation has slowed sharply. These key indicators put pressure on Republicans as the party in power – even as they push blame toward the Federal Reserve and Democrats. Also: today's stories, including how gruesome footage of the killings of Charlie Kirk and a Ukrainian refugee has renewed debate about safeguards for online content; whether Israel and Syria can find common ground on border issues; and how the U.S. Department of War will differ from the Defense Department. Join the Monitor's Cameron Pugh for today's news.

This week, Walter and Jeremy discuss Russian drones entering Polish airspace, Israel's failed strike on Hamas leadership in Qatar, Trump's decision to rename the Defense Department the War Department, and the assassination of Charlie Kirk.

Donald Trump recently reverted the name of the Dept. of Defense to Dept. of War. He, and his cronies, claim that the Dept of Defense is too woke and needs to return to a "warrior culture." Never one to be confused with a genius, Trump misses the history of why the Department of Defense came into being in 1947 and how it was a blueprint for America being a military, economic and political super power, , i.e. an "American Empire." In our latest, we talk about the history of the National Security State, recent adventures in the waters off of Venezuela, domestic military operations in Chicago, and the White House meme-ifying Trump as Lt. Col. Bill Kilgore (played by Robert Duvall) in Apocalypse Now as he saber rattles a federal invasion in Chicago. -------------------------------------------Music- "G&R Blues" by Moody

Their alleged crime? Operating in a regulatory gray zone where vague EPA guidance and unclear enforcement thresholds make compliance nearly impossible for honest entrepreneurs. The case is emblematic of the broader federal bureaucracy's war on working-class Americans and small business operators—especially those who support the industries that power rural and agricultural communities. The targeted small business owners primarily served customers in industries critical to the American economy—agriculture, heavy construction, and freight transport. The prosecution is not rooted in any danger to the public, but in a federal bureaucracy out of ...

In the federal government's latest excursion into the private sector, the US announced last week that it took a 10% stake in Intel. The move comes after the Defense Department became the biggest shareholder in a mining company, and the Trump administration made deals with AI chipmakers. Meanwhile, President Donald Trump is continuing to direct his ire at the Federal Reserve— this time specifically on Fed Governor Lisa Cook, whom he tried to fire on Monday. So for more on state-sponsored capitalism and the seemingly never-ending Federal Reserve fight, we spoke with Scott Lincicome. He's the vice president of general economics at the Cato Institute.And in headlines: President Trump makes a lengthy television appearance with his Cabinet, a whistleblower says the Department of Government Efficiency put Social Security data at risk, and a federal judge dismisses a Department of Justice lawsuit against Maryland's entire federal bench.Show Notes:Check out Scott's Op-Ed – https://tinyurl.com/2ud35mxwCall 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

The Defense Department is outlining plans to send troops to Chicago as soon as September. These plans have been in the works for weeks – long before Trump's declaration Friday that “it won't even be tough” to send troops to the third-largest city in the U.S. Pentagon reporter Dan Lamothe uncovered the details of these military plans, which are part of Trump's broader crackdown on American cities. Dan speaks with host Colby Itkowitz about what a troop deployment in Chicago could look like, what legal arguments the administration is making and what we can learn from the military's presence in Los Angeles and D.C. Today's show was produced by Laura Benshoff, with help from Thomas Lu. It was mixed by Sean Carter and edited by Reena Flores.

From May 3, 2024: Over the past several years, governors around the country from both political parties have used their respective National Guards for an increasingly unconventional array of domestic missions, ranging from teaching in public schools to regulating immigration at the southern border. To discuss how this trend may impact the National Guard—and our broader democracy, particularly in this pivotal election year—Lawfare Senior Editor Scott R. Anderson recently sat down with a panel of senior former National Guard and Defense Department officials, including: General Craig McKinley, General Joseph Lengyel, Brigadier General Allyson Solomon, Major General Daryl Bohac, and former Assistant Secretary of Defense Dr. Paul Stockton. A video recording of the panel is available at https://www.brookings.edu/events/domestic-deployment-of-the-national-guard/.
