And the markets still rally! PLUS, Nathan Worcester, senior reporter for The Epoch Times, tells Shaun that Congress gave up its war-making power long ago as the Democrats cry to force a War Powers vote for Iran and points out that it's time Congress pass a spending bill instead so we can open the DHS back-up to target the sleeper cells wreaking havoc in the USA.

Patrick Bet-David sits down with DHS Secretary Kristi Noem to discuss her claim that “they spied on me,” the discovery of a secret DHS file room, the fallout surrounding El Mencho and cartel operations, and efforts to identify and remove alleged deep state actors inside the Department of Homeland Security.

Today's Headlines: Former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton testified before the House Oversight Committee in the first of two days of Epstein-related depositions involving the Clintons. The closed-door hearing was briefly paused after Rep. Lauren Boebert leaked a photo of Clinton testifying to right-wing podcaster Benny Johnson, who posted it online. Clinton later told reporters she “did not know Jeffrey Epstein” and criticized the committee for not calling individuals more prominently named in Epstein files. She also said lawmakers repeatedly questioned her about UFOs and “Pizzagate.” Meanwhile, U.S.–Iran nuclear talks resumed in Geneva, with officials describing discussions as “positive,” even as concerns linger about potential military escalation. In New York, Columbia University student Elmina Aghayeva was detained by ICE agents inside her campus housing after agents reportedly misrepresented themselves to gain entry. She was later released following intervention by NYC Mayor Zohran Mamdani, who was meeting with Donald Trump at the White House regarding housing investment proposals. Vice President JD Vance announced a pause on $259 million in Medicaid funding allocated to Minnesota, signaling potential broader funding freezes. In Kansas, the Republican-controlled legislature overrode Gov. Laura Kelly's veto to enact a law invalidating updated gender markers on driver's licenses and birth certificates for transgender residents. In media and tech, Netflix withdrew its bid to acquire Warner Bros. Discovery, clearing the way for Paramount's higher offer. AI company Anthropic announced it is dropping its 2023 voluntary safety pledge amid competitive pressure. More than 1,800 companies have filed lawsuits seeking refunds for Trump-era tariffs ruled illegal, totaling roughly $130 billion. Finally, Trump also invoked the Defense Production Act to boost domestic production of glyphosate, the active ingredient in Roundup, despite ongoing litigation linking the herbicide to cancer, and a new military readiness report additionally calls for major Pentagon reforms in cybersecurity, procurement, and tech modernization.

Half a trillion dollars of taxpayer money allegedly gone in Minnesota alone. Illegal immigrant sex offenders flown into the U.S. with minimal oversight. And a shadowy web of surveillance inside federal agencies — are our institutions out of control? Today on AmperWave Daily, we break down the latest explosive claims on fraud, political spying, and border security.

Tara exposes newly revealed documents showing illegal immigrant sex offenders were allegedly released into the U.S. after signing paperwork promising “counseling.” She connects the dots between the State of the Union moment when Democrats refused to stand for American safety and what she calls a coordinated internal flight program that sent thousands into red states. The details are explosive — and disturbing.

DOCKET ALERTS:The Justice Department is suing New Jersey for not letting ICE use state buildings and parks for immigration enforcement. Because the Tenth Amendment is basically a suggestion?CBP agents dumped a blind, sick, refugee who spoke no English outside a doughnut shop in Buffalo because they couldn't deport him. Local police are investigating his death.Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth is trying to manhandle Anthropic into letting it use Claude for domestic surveillance and autonomous targeting. MAIN SHOW:ICE's total refusal to follow the law has flooded federal courts with habeas corpus petitions, and judges are PISSED. On Thursday, two judges in Minnesota and one in New Jersey threatened to hold prosecutors in contempt of court over DOJ/DHS refusing to follow court orders in immigration cases.The fascinating “Quince sues UGG” antitrust lawsuit is Last Brand, Inc. v. Deckers Outdoor Corporation. The (possibly even true) story of ugh, ugly, and finally ugg boots is told here by the Everything Australian company.On Wednesday, Judge Brian Murphy ruled that the Trump administration's policy of third-country removals was illegal.And for subscribers, we'll discuss Pete Hegseth's battle with Anthropic and DHS's theft of more than 42,000 tax returns from IRS's database.LinksUS v.

In this Friday edition of The Daily Herold, Jon Herold breaks down the renewed online frenzy surrounding Executive Order 13848 and a circulating 17-page draft executive order claiming Chinese interference in the 2020 election. Jon clarifies what EO 13848 actually does — intelligence assessments, post-election reports, and sanctions authority — and addresses widespread misconceptions about asset seizure and emergency powers. He questions the origins of the draft order and the activists promoting it, examining whether the story represents legitimate movement or another “election squirrel” designed to distract and muddy the waters. Jon also discusses Tulsi Gabbard's ongoing review of election security and what it could mean moving forward. The episode expands into what Jon views as a coordinated psyop attempting to strip Trump of his “peace president” label amid escalating Iran rhetoric. Additional coverage includes Clinton testimony fallout, DHS spyware revelations, and broader concerns about deep state activity. Skeptical but steady, Jon urges viewers to guard their minds, question narratives, and avoid manufactured hysteria.

Hey PRIDE Fam! On today's episode, the hosts are joined by friends of the pod Christi Tisdale and Darren Stach!

Send a textThe quiet before a three-foot putt feels a lot like the hush before a quadruple jump—or the breath you take when a headline tries to hijack your day. We open on Jacob Bridgman's breakthrough at Riviera and live inside that moment where hands go numb, galleries roar, and a life can tilt on a three-and-a-half-foot stroke. What does it take to close when the stakes stretch beyond money to legacy, invitations, and the long arc of a season? We unpack the mechanics of staying present in a sport that's mostly waiting and only minutes of swinging, and why routines are the real armor against nerves.From the fairway to the rink, the pressure script repeats. Figure skating's leaps mirror Sunday golf: precision in a storm, the reset of what's possible as athletes push from triples to quads and pull the rest of the field forward. Alysa Liu's gold becomes a cultural pivot, proving that style, voice, and performance can fuse into something that expands what fans accept and celebrate. Then hockey dials up the drama—USA vs. Canada thrillers, sudden-death momentum shifts, and the elegant chaos of three-on-three overtime. Belief, preparation, and clean execution write the endings we remember.We don't stop at sports. A razor-edged satire takes aim at DHS, travel bottlenecks, and political own-goals to show how attention gets weaponized—and how quickly it backfires. And we close with UAPs, where testimony, technology, and slow-moving institutions collide in a cautious trickle of disclosure. Across every thread, the lesson holds: focus is not the silence of the world; it's the skill of moving through noise with purpose.

Host: Cindy Allen Show: Simply Trade – Cindy's Version Published: February 27, 2026 Length: ~15 minutes Presented by: Global Training Center All Too Well: One Week Post-IEEPA, Still Not Fine at All One week after the Supreme Court struck down IEEPA tariffs, Cindy Allen, CEO of TradeForce Multiplier, delivers the latest update through the lens of Taylor Swift's “All Too Well.” She breaks down the lingering uncertainty—“I know it's long gone and the magic's not here no more… I might be okay, but I'm not fine at all”—and what importers, brokers, and service providers should do next amid shutdowns, pending bills, and shifting tariff authorities.​ What You'll Learn in This Episode Legislative landscape Three new bills introduced on IEEPA refunds: two support refunds for importers; one opposes and ties refunds to consumers (challenging in practice). Other pending bills (eliminating first sale, non‑resident importer status, new licensing program) are unlikely to move soon. IEEPA refund bills could gain traction if courts rule against refunds—watch for Congress to act.​ DHS shutdown impacts Ongoing due to budget issues; most CBP personnel are working without pay (be kind!). Trade interactions limited as “non‑essential”: canceled meetings, no new conference appearances. TSA PreCheck spared (shutdown threat revoked); Global Entry inactive due to staffing.​ CBP updates and waits Still awaiting Section 232 valuation guidance for steel/aluminum/copper derivatives—current CBP direction conflicts with executive order language. Trade associations have jointly requested clarity; no response yet.​ Administration signals New trade deals now using Section 122 authority instead of IEEPA. Acceleration planned for remaining 232 investigations and new 301 actions—structured processes with timelines, public input, and notice (no more Friday night surprises).​ Why “All Too Well”? Cindy ties the week to Taylor Swift's “All Too Well,” capturing trade's emotional whiplash: IEEPA is “long gone,” but the “magic” of predictability isn't back. Importers, attorneys, and consultants are swamped with “What now?” calls—Cindy's attended 5+ webinars with no clear answers. The trade isn't “fine”—we're in uncharted territory.​ The Big Questions: If, How, When on IEEPA Refunds IF refunds happen: Supreme Court remanded to lower court, likely landing at Court of International Trade (CIT). Prevailing view: no legal basis to withhold refunds, but scope (“which refunds?”) is unclear.​ HOW to get refunds: Two paths debated: 1581(i) (equitable jurisdiction—broad refunds for all) vs. 1581(a)(denied protests only). Post-summary corrections rejected by CBP—don't try now. FedEx filed CIT action to protect refund rights. Recommendation: talk to an attorney for tailored advice.​ WHEN to act: Government has 25 days for rehearing request (unlikely); ~7 days admin time; then CIT jurisdiction (~32 days total from Supreme Court). File protests now if entries liquidate soon to preserve rights (CIT may require it under 1581(a)). If no imminent liquidations, wait—process could take months or a year+. Pack patience; this is a long haul.​ Key Takeaways IEEPA tariffs are history, but uncertainty reigns—new authorities (Section 122, accelerated 232/301) fill the gap.​ Support CBP/TSA workers during shutdown—they're on the job unpaid.​ Consult an attorney ASAP for refund strategy; don't sleep on protest deadlines.​ No quick fixes ahead—trade pros need patience and planning.​ Credits Host: Cindy Allen Producer: Annik Sobing Listen & Subscribe Simply Trade main page: https://simplytrade.podbean.com​ Apple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/simply-trade/id1640329690​ Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/09m199JO6fuNumbcrHTkGq​ Amazon Music: https://music.amazon.com/podcasts/8de7d7fa-38e0-41b2-bad3-b8a3c5dc4cda/simply-trade​ Connect with Simply Trade Podcast page: https://www.globaltrainingcenter.com/simply-trade-podcast​ LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/showcase/simply-trade-podcast​ YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@SimplyTradePod​ Join the Trade Geeks Community Trade Geeks (by Global Training Center): https://globaltrainingcenter.com/trade-geeks/

The Trump admin publicly bragged about demanding that Apple and Facebook remove ICE watch apps and Facebook groups documenting ICE activity, and Big Tech is complying.Support my independent journalism:

1. Cuba Coast Guard Incident A US‑registered speedboat was fired upon by Cuban authorities, resulting in 4 deaths and 6 injuries. Cuba claims: The boat’s occupants fired first. Passengers (Cuban nationals living in the US) carried assault rifles, handguns, body armor, etc. The group was attempting armed infiltration with terrorist intent. The US position: Nothing is verified yet; US agencies are investigating. Officials (Rubio, Vance, DHS, Coast Guard) are demanding access to survivors. No indication the operation had any US government involvement. The event raises fears of a major diplomatic flashpoint, given: Historical tension (e.g., 1996 Brothers to the Rescue shootdown). Current hardline US posture toward Cuba. 2. Minnesota Medicaid Fraud Crackdown The Trump administration has paused $259.5 million in Medicaid reimbursements to Minnesota over large‑scale fraud concerns. Fraud schemes allegedly include: Paying mothers $1,000 to falsely diagnose children with autism to bill Medicaid. A provider billing for 450 days of work exceeding 24 hours/day. Centers billing for beneficiaries who were already deceased. VP JD Vance and CMS Director Dr. Oz emphasize: The fraud involves home and community‑based services that are hard to audit. Minnesota must submit a corrective action plan or risk losing up to $1 billion in funds. Providers have already been paid by Minnesota; the federal government is withholding reimbursement from the state, not from citizens. Please Hit Subscribe to this podcast Right Now.

We take a look at the Lockheed Constellation with one of the last pilots to have flown the L-1649A Starliner Constellation. In the news, the ROTOR Act and an ADS-B In mandate, GAMA's annual Aircraft Shipment and Billing Report, the Government’s partial shutdown impact on the TSA, Government luxury jets, and a plan to market an Embraer aerial tanker. Also, an interview from the Singapore Airshow with a Product Development VP from Textron Aviation. Lockheed Starliner L-1649A flying in TWA colors. Guest Philip Kemp has been an Airline Transport Pilot for 17 years, and he has more than a little experience with the Lockheed Constellation. That connection came about in the 1980's after meeting Maurice Roundy, a Lockheed Constellation fan and collector of the airplane. Philip is one of the last pilots to have flown the L-1649A Starliner Constellation.  Philip describes the development of the Lockheed Constellation and its variants, and how the airliner was obsoleted by jet transports. He tells us about his adventures ferrying Connies, the remaining examples that still exist, and the sale of Maurice's Constellations, including an ultimately unsuccessful attempt by Lufthansa to make one of the aircraft flightworthy. Philip explains that N8083H is now at the TWA Hotel at JFK after a cosmetic restoration, N974R is with Kermit Weeks also for a cosmetic restoration, and that N7316C was shipped to Hamburg for the 100th Lufthansa anniversary. Ferry flight from Sanford, Florida, to Kermit Weeks’ Fantasy of Flight. October 2001. Philip started his career with Continental Express, and then he flew Part 135 jet charter with Charter Ops for two years. He returned to the airlines with SkyWest, then back to Continental Express (ExpressJet). Philip spent nine years with North American Airlines flying troops all over the world, and his last six years were with JetBlue. He was the Manager of Crew Training at Waltzing Matilda Aviation/Connect Airlines, a new Part 121 airline, flying Dash 8 Q400's. Philip is now looking for a good teaching opportunity in the aviation world. N8083H L-1649A at the TWA Hotel, JFK. N7316C and N8083H next to Maurice Roundy's airport house. Maurice Roundy, the day before the last flight. Lockheed 749 Constellation versus the Lockheed 1649A Starliner Constellation. See Ralph M. Pettersen’s Constellation Survivors Website. Aviation News After DCA crash, Congress acts to mandate decades-old aircraft tracking tech Automatic Dependent Surveillance-Broadcast (ADS-B) is an aviation system that uses GPS to determine aircraft position and also provides other flight information. ADS-B has two functions: ADS-B In and ADS-B Out. ADS-B Out broadcasts position and other identifying information, and has been required for many aircraft in the U.S. since 2020. ADS-B In receives transmissions from other aircraft and from ground stations. The bi-partisan Rotorcraft Operations Transparency and Oversight Reform (ROTOR) Act (S.2503) would require ADS-B out aircraft to have ADS-B In to display information about nearby traffic in the cockpit. The ROTOR Act was unanimously passed by the Senate in December 2025, and at the time of recording, a vote in the House was scheduled. House to vote Monday on ROTOR Act following deadly midair collision After recording, the House voted on the bill, but it did not pass due to insufficient votes. Under the ROTOR Act: FAA must issue final rules for ADS‑B In equipage not later than 2 years after enactment, effective within 60 days of publication. The final rule has a fleet-wide compliance deadline of December 31, 2031, for affected aircraft, with at most a 1‑year extension for certain operators. FAA must start regular briefings and public reports on the rulemaking status within 180 days after enactment and then every 90 days. GAMA Reports Strong 2025 for OEMs The General Aviation Manufacturers Association (GAMA) released its 2025 Aircraft Shipment and Billing Report: Airplane shipments in 2025 compared to 2024: Piston airplanes flat (+0.6%) Turboprops declined by 5.1% Business jets increased 11.8% with 854 units. The value of airplane deliveries for 2025 was $31.0 billion, an increase of 16.1%. Helicopter shipments in 2025 compared to 2024: Piston helicopters were down 2% Turbine helicopters down 2% (preliminary) The preliminary value of helicopter deliveries for 2025 was $4.7 billion, an increase of approximately 5.5%. Homeland security reverses course on TSA PreCheck suspension Citing staffing shortages caused by the partial government shutdown, the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) initially suspended the TSA PreCheck and Global Entry airport security programs. Soon thereafter, DHS revised the directive in a social media post saying, “TSA PreCheck remains operational with no change for the traveling public. As staffing constraints arise, TSA will evaluate on a case-by-case basis and adjust operations accordingly.” Chris Sununu, president and CEO of the trade association Airlines for America, said in a statement that the group “is deeply concerned that TSA PreCheck and Global Entry programs are being suspended and that the traveling public will be, once again, used as a political football amid another government shutdown”. Geoff Freeman, head of the US Travel Association, accused Democratic and Republican lawmakers of putting politics first. “Air travel is essential for our economy and daily life, and it's disgraceful for travel to be used as leverage in political disagreements,” he said in a statement. No Expense Has Been Spared’: Inside a Luxury Jet DHS Wants to Buy for Deportations DHS has been leasing a Boeing 737 Max 8 featuring bedrooms, showers, a kitchen, four large flat-screen TVs, and a bar. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) is asking the OMB to approve its purchase of the jet for $70 million. ICE says that it would be used for deportations and travel for Cabinet officials. A DHS spokesperson said, “at least one of the bedrooms is currently being converted for seating to prepare the aircraft to meet the demands of its deportation mission set.” In a statement, a DHS spokesperson said, “This plane flies at 40% cheaper than what the military aircraft flies for ICE deportation flights—saving the American taxpayer hundreds of millions of dollars. This is part of Secretary Noem's broader efforts to clamp down on inefficiencies and save taxpayer dollars.” DHS Secretary Kristi Noem Spends $200 Million of Taxpayer Money on Pair of Gulfstream G700 Private Jets During Government Shutdown House Appropriations Committee Ranking Member Rosa DeLauro (CT-03) and Homeland Security Subcommittee Ranking Member Lauren Underwood (IL-14) requested more information from the Secretary regarding the purchase, which does not align with earlier funding requests for the Department. Northrop, Brazil's Embraer partner on KC-390 to pitch US, others Under a memorandum of understanding, Embraer and Northrop Grumman are looking at adding an autonomous boom refueling system to the KC-390 Millennium, which currently employs a hose and drogue system. A new boom would enable the tanker to refuel U.S. Air Force aircraft. Singapore Airshow 2026 Brian Coleman brings us interviews from the Singapore Airshow.

In the years leading up to the American Revolution, newspapers and pamphlets overflowed with essays signed "Publius," "Brutus," and "A Farmer." Those arguments helped shape a nation, but the authors' real names were nowhere to be found. Americans have long relied on anonymous speech to challenge the powerful, protect dissenters, and keep the focus on ideas rather than identities. That tradition has endured into America's digital age, even as anonymous speech has become more controversial. To explore America's history with anonymity, we are joined by Jeff Kosseff, a nonresident senior legal fellow at The Future of Free Speech and author of The United States of Anonymous. Preorder his forthcoming book, The Future of Free Speech: Reversing the Global Decline of Democracy's Most Essential Freedom.   Timestamps:  00:00 Intro   02:01 What is anonymity? 04:38 Anonymous speech in Colonial America 15:58 Does the First Amendment protect anonymity? 20:35 Anonymous speech in the Civil Rights Era  31:17 The internet and anonymity 35:44 Modern anonymity debates: DHS subpoenas, age verification, social media regulation, and VPN bans 51:53 Outro   Enjoy listening to the podcast?

I know, I know, you are asking your podcast player of choice out loud, right now, “WHY IS CHRIS REJECT BACK?” Well, it is simply because we love him. Also, LVAC is having some cool sales right now, so get some stuff printed, will yah?? On this extreme sport filled episode, Reject joins us to discuss two tubular films, Rad and Gleaming the Cube. Look, as much as we like to bust on Chris, the reality is he is a great dude who does great work, and you should make him feel cool by checking out LVAC, or DRYROTT, or SQUARE OF OPPOSITION, or whatever. It was actually pretty fun to talk to Chris again; even if he is a giant asshat, he is also pretty great. Kinda. On this episode, we do our usual Wack and On Track and we spend a bit more time discussing the ways DHS is being used to terrorize innocent people. I want to link to a charity, or a community organization, or an ICE WATCH group, but you should probably find a local one to you. I know things are hard right now; do not give up, we can do this together. Like I said, patronize any one of Chris’s scams — I mean, businesses — and let him know we sent yah so he stops harassing us all the time. Thanks friends, love you. Thanks for listening!
