Trump's Approval Ratings Dip - But Democrats Gain Nothing – New polling shows Trump's support falling to 41% approval, driven by concerns over the economy and tariffs. Still, Democrats haven't gained ground, and Trump remains strong on immigration, where most Americans support mass deportation. Supreme Court Temporarily Blocks Deportations Under Alien Enemies Act – In a rare 1 a.m. decision, justices halt deportation of Venezuelan migrants as legal challenges unfold. The ruling is part of a larger legal war over Trump's deportation agenda across four categories of migrants. Medicare Abuse by Migrants Targeted – The administration is using health data to find illegal immigrants fraudulently collecting benefits. Self-deportation through hardship remains a central strategy. Economic Outlook: Gloomy but with Bright Spots – While tariffs spark fears of stagflation and job loss, data shows prices remain stable, and U.S. steel, aluminum, and construction firms are adding jobs. Ten mining projects are fast-tracked as America fights rare earth dependence on China. Global Updates: Ukraine Peace Talks Stalling, Iran Playing Nuclear Games – Trump's patience wears thin with Ukraine peace efforts. Iran limits inspections and removes nuclear surveillance, leaving Israel considering a unilateral strike. Gaza and Lebanon: Hamas Goes Broke, Lebanese Army Arrests Militants – Israel is squeezing Hamas financially, and Lebanon's new president is cracking down on Hezbollah and Palestinian radicals. U.S. Troops Coming Home from Syria – The drawdown begins as Trump fulfills his promise to wind down America's anti-ISIS mission. Health Tip of the Day: The 10-Second Balance Test – UK researchers say if you can't balance on one foot for 10 seconds, you may face higher health risks. Stretch, walk, and squat your way to better longevity. "And you shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free." - John 8:32​

In a sweeping executive order, Donald Trump has taken aim at efforts by states, including California, to set their own environmental policies. At risk are key components of California's fight against climate change including its cap and trade program to control carbon emissions and efforts to promote electrical vehicles. Trump's order is just the latest in his moves to reverse climate change policies, including halting government research funding and gutting environmental agencies. As his head of the Environmental Protection Agency Lee Zeldin has said, the administration is “driving a dagger straight into the heart of the climate change religion.” We'll talk about the impact of Trump's approach to the environment and how California could respond.

The conversation centers on what agentic AI is, how it is being implemented, and what security, development, and business leaders need to consider as adoption grows.Agentic AI refers to systems that can autonomously plan, execute, and adapt tasks using large language models (LLMs) and integrated tools. Unlike traditional chatbots, agentic systems handle multi-step workflows, delegate tasks to specialized agents, and dynamically respond to inputs using tools like vector databases or APIs. This creates new possibilities for business automation but also introduces complex security and governance challenges.Practical Applications and Emerging Use CasesKen outlines current use cases where agentic AI is being applied: startups using agentic models to support scientific research, enterprise tools like Salesforce's AgentForce automating workflows, and internal chatbots acting as co-workers by tapping into proprietary data. As agentic AI matures, these systems may manage travel bookings, orchestrate ticketing operations, or even assist in robotic engineering—all with minimal human intervention.Implications for Development and Security TeamsDevelopment teams adopting agentic AI frameworks—such as AutoGen or CrewAI—must recognize that most do not come with out-of-the-box security controls. Ken emphasizes the need for SDKs that add authentication, monitoring, and access controls. For IT and security operations, agentic systems challenge traditional boundaries; agents often span across cloud environments, demanding a zero-trust mindset and dynamic policy enforcement.Security leaders are urged to rethink their programs. Agentic systems must be validated for accuracy, reliability, and risk—especially when multiple agents operate together. Threat modeling and continuous risk assessment are no longer optional. Enterprises are encouraged to start small: deploy a single-agent system, understand the workflow, validate security controls, and scale as needed.The Call for Collaboration and Mindset ShiftAgentic AI isn't just a technological shift—it requires a cultural one. Huang recommends cross-functional engagement and alignment with working groups at CSA, OWASP, and other communities to build resilient frameworks and avoid duplicated effort. Zero Trust becomes more than an architecture—it becomes a guiding principle for how agentic AI is developed, deployed, and defended.⬥SPONSORS⬥LevelBlue: https://itspm.ag/attcybersecurity-3jdk3ThreatLocker: https://itspm.ag/threatlocker-r974⬥RESOURCES⬥BOOK | Generative AI Security: https://link.springer.com/book/10.1007/978-3-031-54252-7BOOK | Agentic AI: Theories and Practices, to be published August by Springer: https://link.springer.com/book/9783031900259BOOK | The Handbook of CAIO (with a business focus): https://www.amazon.com/Handbook-Chief-AI-Officers-Revolution/dp/B0DFYNXGMRMore books at Amazon, including books published by Cambridge University Press and John Wiley, etc.: https://www.amazon.com/stores/Ken-Huang/author/B0D3J7L7GNVideo Course Mentioned During this Episode: "Generative AI for Cybersecurity" video course by EC-Council with 255 people rated averaged 5 starts: https://codered.eccouncil.org/course/generative-ai-for-cybersecurity-course?logged=falsePodcast: The 2025 OWASP Top 10 for LLMs: What's Changed and Why It Matters | A Conversation with Sandy Dunn and Rock Lambros⬥ADDITIONAL INFORMATION⬥✨ More Redefining CyberSecurity Podcast:

After a hurricane upends everything, the void left behind—solastalgia—can be as destabilizing as the storm itself. In this episode of Storm Stories, we hear from Angie Bailey of North Carolina's Broadband Infrastructure Office on efforts to bridge the digital divide, ensuring communities aren't cut off when they need connectivity the most. And in Utica, Mississippi, Carlton Turner reflects on bringing internet access to his town while grappling with the social and political costs of digital expansion.How to Evaluate Broadband Access in Your Community: A 10-Step Guide for Local LeadersAccess to reliable and affordable broadband is essential for education, work, healthcare, and economic growth. Yet, many communities still struggle with slow speeds, high costs, and service gaps. If you're a community leader looking to assess broadband access in your area, here's how you can take action.1. Start with a Listening TourTalk to residents, schools, businesses, and healthcare providers about their internet experience. Are there dead zones? Is service too expensive? Does it support remote work and learning? Gather real stories to guide your efforts.2. Run a Community Speed Test CampaignEncourage residents to test their internet speeds using tools like the FCC's Speed Test app or Measurement Lab. This will help you compare actual performance against what providers advertise.3. Identify Areas Without ServiceMap out which neighborhoods have little or no broadband access. This may include rural areas, low-income neighborhoods, or places where providers claim to offer service but don't.4. Survey Households and BusinessesCreate a simple online and paper survey asking residents about their internet provider, cost, reliability, and whether they feel their needs are being met. Schools and libraries can help distribute surveys.5. Check Internet AffordabilityInvestigate broadband prices in your area and whether residents can afford them. See if people qualify for federal programs like the Affordable Connectivity Program (ACP) but aren't using them.6. Meet with Internet ProvidersSet up meetings with local broadband providers to discuss coverage gaps, speed concerns, and future expansion plans. Ask about any upcoming infrastructure upgrades or partnerships they might be open to.7. Look for Funding OpportunitiesMany state and federal grants exist to expand broadband access, such as the BEAD Program (Broadband Equity, Access, and Deployment). Work with local government or nonprofits to explore funding options.8. Build a Coalition for ChangeBring together schools, businesses, healthcare organizations, and local government to advocate for better broadband. Strong partnerships can drive real improvements.9. Push for Policy ChangesIf outdated regulations or monopoly control are blocking better service, work with elected officials to explore policy solutions, such as municipal broadband or open-access networks.10. Keep the Pressure OnBroadband expansion takes time. Keep tracking progress, sharing updates with your community, and holding providers and policymakers accountable until real improvements happen.Support the show

In this episode of the Disaster Tough Podcast, John catches up with the audience after his first break in six years. He breaks down the state of emergency management (EM), FEMA reform, and the urgent need for data-driven decision-making and brand standards. With growing concerns about the future of EM, this episode challenges outdated models, calls out inefficiencies, and pushes for a more strategic, structured approach.The EM field is facing major challenges, from funding gaps to a lack of clear role definitions. Passionate debates online highlight growing concerns, but many conversations fail to focus on long-term sustainability. Emergency managers often struggle to define their role, leading to confusion among stakeholders and underfunding of essential programs. John predicts that without major changes, EM as a profession could fade within 10-20 years.John challenges the style of approach for calls-to-action, using the airline industry as an example. Despite recent FAA incidents, year-over-year accident data remains stable, proving that two events don't create a trend—media hype does. The same applies to emergency management: decision-making must be data-driven, not reactive to sensationalized narratives.To be effective, EM must be seen as the strategic coordination of emergency services, not just business management. John emphasizes the importance of branding, clear communication, and stakeholder engagement to secure funding and influence. Without a standardized role for EM professionals across industries, decision-makers struggle to see its value—leading to underfunding and a lack of dedicated resources.John identifies six critical areas FEMA must address to overcome its challenges:1. Funding & Budget Issues – Many disaster declarations are for minor incidents ($8M or less). FEMA needs a smarter approach to resource allocation.2. Technology & Data Utilization – FEMA is severely behind in adopting modern technology for disaster response, coordination, and tracking.3. Emergency Management vs. Auditing – 90% of FEMA operates like the "IRS of Disasters," focusing on compliance and funding rather than true emergency management.4. Deployment & Workforce Structure – The current hiring and deployment model is inefficient, leading to wasted resources and burnout.5. Enhancing EMI (Emergency Management Institute) – FEMA should focus on developing best practices for all industries, not just public safety, to elevate emergency management as a profession.6. Strategic Coordination & Reform – FEMA must embrace long-term planning, efficiency, and structured leadership instead of reacting to crises with short-term fixes.The Call to Action: Evolve or Become ObsoleteEmergency management must shift toward data-driven decision-making, strategic planning, and interagency collaboration. EM professionals need to embrace branding, marketing, and clear messaging to establish credibility and secure funding. The field must also attract multi-disciplinary stakeholders, including finance and logistics experts, to enhance operational efficiency.Emergency management is at a crossroads.Without embracing innovation, technology, and strategic coordination, the field risks being phased out.

Throughout the episode, we test Manus AI's capabilities by asking it to create a DocuSign clone, research startup ideas, and analyze website SEO.Timestamps:• 00:00 - Intro• 02:18 - What is Manus AI?• 03:58 - Project 1: DocuSign clone• 16:54 - Project 2: Research Greg's top startup ideas• 27:09 - Security concerns with Manus AI • 30:16 - Manus bug and reboot • 32:06 - Deploying DocuSign Clone• 39:42 - Project 3: SEO Optimization • 44:14 - Discussion of Manus's Limitations and Scaling issues• 48:23 - Project 4: Build a Flight Simulator Video Game• 49:48 - AI companies facing scaling issues• 52:05 - Where does Manus excel? • 53:48 - What Manus was able to accomplish during the episodeKey Points:• Testing Manus AI by asking it to autonomously research, plan, and execute complex tasks• Having Manus create a DocuSign clone, research startup ideas, and analyze website SEO• Manus AI functions as a multi-agent system that can browse websites, write code, and deploy applications with minimal prompting• The tool has limitations including context windows, deployment issues, and daily usage limits1) What makes Manus AI different?Unlike ChatGPT or Claude, Manus is a TRUE AGENT system that:• Researches, plans, and executes simultaneously• Controls browsers to gather information autonomously• Creates full applications from simple prompts• Deploys working code with minimal guidance"It's the closest thing to AGI yet" - Min Choi2) The DocuSign Clone Experiment With just a 4-WORD PROMPT ("create a DocuSign clone"), Manus:• Researched DocuSign's core features• Created a complete project structure• Built login, document upload & e-signature functionality• Generated deployable codeAll without templates or boilerplate code!3) Human-in-the-loop capabilities One of the MOST IMPRESSIVE features:• You can interrupt Manus WHILE it's working• Refine requirements mid-process• Add constraints or pivot directionWhen they narrowed focus to "just e-signature features," Manus immediately adjusted its plan without starting over.4) Multi-agent workflow Manus feels like having MULTIPLE EMPLOYEES working simultaneously:• A researcher gathering information• A PM creating specifications• A developer writing code• A marketer analyzing opportunitiesIt's like an entire team in one tool!5) Beyond coding: Marketing & Growth Manus can also:• Analyze websites for SEO improvements• Target specific audiences (like executives)• Create content strategies• Scrape data for market researchIt's not just about building - it's about GROWING your business too.6) Current limitationsManus isn't perfect (yet):• Context length limitations on complex tasks• Deployment issues with sophisticated apps• Daily usage limits (currently ~10 sessions)• Server load causing errors as popularity growsIt's still beta, but even with limitations, it's REVOLUTIONARY.7) Security considerationsSince Manus is a Chinese company, there are valid concerns:• Be mindful of what data you share• Don't connect personal accounts or payment systems• Use for learning & experimentationMin's advice: "Always be careful with the data you share online."The BIG TAKEAWAY: We're witnessing a fundamental shift in how businesses will be built.What used to take weeks now takes MINUTES.What required TEAMS now needs just ONE PERSON with AI.This is just the beginning of the agent AI revolution.Notable Quotes:"I think that we're getting closer and closer to sort of the glimpse into what the AGI is gonna look like." - Min Choi"It feels like we have like four employees working at the same time... We've got this marketing person. We've got this researcher. We've got this cracked PM slash developer." - Greg IsenbergWant more free ideas?

Former President Biden's final days in office involved signing an US$840 million energy contract with Constellation - a statement of intent for the US's largest nuclear supplier. Since then, what's changed with nuclear policy? To find out, host Sylvia Leyva Martinez – a principal analyst at Wood Mackenzie – welcomes Maria Korsnick, President and CEO of the Nuclear Energy Institute to the show. Maria says that despite uncertainties, there's no reason large reactors couldn't achieve costs as low as US$60 to US$80 per megawatt-hour. Utilities are eyeing an additional 100GW of nuclear power by 2050 – driven in large part by demand from data centers and the tech giants. So how is the industry going to meet this demand? New technology? More permitting reform? More investment? Join us as Maria reveals the industry's strategic momentum and the pivotal role nuclear plays in providing round-the-clock, highly reliable and cleaner energy. Engagement with both state and tech sectors could shift nuclear from perceived outsider to mainstream option. Expect in-depth analysis on how the US is positioning itself to meet skyrocketing energy demands, especially from the ever-expanding tech sector.Follow the show wherever you get podcasts, and we'll be back in two weeks time, Tuesday at 7am.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

GPT4  - Harbinger or Hyperbole? could be interpreted as a debate surrounding the potential impact of the next iteration of OpenAI's language model. Some view GPT-4 as a harbinger of profound technological transformation, heralding breakthroughs in human-computer interaction, natural language understanding, and creative problem-solving. Others caution that such expectations may be exaggerated hyperbole, emphasizing potential limitations, ethical concerns, and the critical need for responsible deployment. Ultimately, the phrase encapsulates both the excitement of groundbreaking AI advancements and the sober reflection required to navigate their real-world implications.
