Then Victoria Coates joins the show for a must-hear global briefing. A former Trump national security official, Coates lays out what's really happening with Venezuela, Iran, Greenland, Cuba, and China's growing footprint, connecting the dots in a way few can.

How Dems Rig the System. Chicago the Next Minneapolis? Non-binary is About Freedom. Trump Sics FBI on Wash Post. US Troops to Iran? RIP John Forte. Independent Americans host Paul Rieckhoff has an exclusive first media interview with Lindsay Church—Minority Veterans of America founder, disabled post‑9/11 veteran, queer non-binary parent, and now independent candidate for Congress in Illinois' 4th District. This all-new episode dives into what it means to take on ICE in Chicago, confront a rigged Democratic party primary, and run as an independent veteran in the middle of Trump's escalating war on democracy and the free press.​ Lindsay's campaign is already historic—as they'd be the first non-binary candidate on a federal ballot in American history.  From the streets of Berwyn and Cicero—where ICE raids have become an everyday terror—to the halls of Congress where Lindsay has already helped pass landmark reforms like the PACT Act and the Deborah Sampson Act, this is a raw, unfiltered conversation about power, courage, leadership and accountability. Paul and Lindsay break down the murder of Renee Good in Minneapolis from a combat veteran's perspective, the weaponization of ICE and PTSD, and how this shooting exposes the consequences when discipline and democracy break down.​ You'll hear why Lindsay believes the corrupt Democratic Party machine in IL‑04 “coronated” a successor behind closed doors, how an independent needs more than 10,000 signatures just to get on the ballot, and why they are running for office in the face of hate and danger—because people deserve a real choice in November and a representative who's earned their vote, not inherited it. The episode zooms out to Trump's broader authoritarian overreach—ICE raids, FBI raiding the home of a Washington Post journalist, threats to NATO, escalation toward Iran, Greenland and Venezuela—while Paul also honors the late musician John Forté, celebrates his wife's new independent film “The Florist,” and reminds listeners that from Tehran to Kyiv to Chicago's Southwest Side, hope and resistance are still alive. Because every episode of Independent Americans with Paul Rieckhoff breaks down the most important news stories--and offers light to contrast the heat of other politics and news shows. It's independent content for independent Americans. In these trying times especially, Independent Americans is your trusted place for independent news, politics, inspiration and hope.

You just walked a patient through the perfect treatment plan. The clinical exam went smoothly. Your explanation was clear. The parent nodded along. Then you open the financial folder and watch their face change. “This feels like a lot of money.” Your stomach drops. Your mind races through rebuttals. You feel the conversation slipping away. Here’s what most treatment coordinators miss: that moment is not the problem. It’s the opportunity. Every objection you hear is a patient asking you to guide them through uncertainty. When you reframe resistance as a request for leadership, everything about your consults changes. Why Patient Objections Happen In Orthodontic Consultations Orthodontic treatment is not an impulse buy. It costs thousands of dollars. It takes months or years. It requires trust in someone who just met your family twenty minutes ago. If patients could confidently make five to seven thousand dollar healthcare decisions on their own, treatment coordinators would not exist. There would be no consult rooms. No case presentations. Patients would click “buy now” and show up for their first appointment. The fact that objections exist proves people need guidance. They want the outcome. They crave confidence. They’re asking you to help them feel safe moving forward. What sounds like resistance is actually uncertainty reaching for direction. When a parent says they need to think about it, they’re not saying no. They’re saying they don’t yet have enough emotional clarity to say yes. When someone mentions cost, they’re not attacking your fees. They’re asking you to bridge the gap between price and value in a way that makes sense for their family. Patient objections in dental practices surface because people care deeply about making the right choice. They care about their child’s smile. They care about their budget. They care about whether this decision will pay off years from now. That care creates anxiety, and anxiety creates questions that sound like obstacles. Your job is not to overcome those obstacles. Your job is to guide people through them. Free Growth Session The Mindset Shift That Transforms Case Acceptance Most orthodontic teams are taught to treat objections as barriers to crush. That language alone creates a fight you don’t need to have. Patients are not pushing back to say no. They’re reaching out for validation so they can say yes. They want to know their concern is normal. That other families have felt the same way. That their fear makes sense. That someone who does this every day understands the weight of the decision sitting in front of them. When a patient says, “This feels like a lot of money,” they’re not attacking your treatment plan pricing. They’re asking if this investment delivers results worth the sacrifice. When they say, “I need to talk to my spouse,” they’re not stalling. They’re honoring the fact that financial decisions this size require partnership. Shift from defending to guiding and watch the entire tone flip. The consult becomes collaborative instead of transactional. Patients lean in instead of pulling away. The energy in the room changes because you stopped treating their concern as a problem and started treating it as a signal. That signal tells you exactly what the patient needs to hear next. Listen for it. How Orthodontic Teams Accidentally Create Resistance Here’s the truth most teams miss: resistance rarely starts when the objection leaves their mouth. It begins earlier in the patient consultation process. Patients do not suddenly decide to object at the financial discussion. Objections are the result of misaligned pacing, unmet emotional needs, or broken rapport that occurred several steps before they said a word. Maybe you rushed through the clinical explanation because you had another patient waiting. Maybe you skipped the step where you ask what’s most important to them. Maybe your body language shifted when you opened the financial folder. These micro-moments stack up, and by the time you present fees, the patient is already guarded. This is why scripts for handling objections fail. Even the best language collapses if the person delivering it feels uncomfortable talking about money or doubts the value of the treatment. Patients sense this instantly. Confidence, or the lack of it, is communicated nonverbally long before you discuss numbers. Your tone, your pace, your posture, all of it telegraphs whether you believe in what you’re offering. When you rush to explain, justify, or counter objections, patients feel unheard. When you lean on memorized responses, they feel managed. Both reactions raise resistance instead of lowering it. People do not buy when they feel guarded. They buy when they feel safe. Safety comes from connection, not convincing. Free Growth Session Why Leadership Beats Language Every Time in Patient Consultations The most effective orthodontic consultations are not driven by clever phrasing. They’re driven by calm, empathetic leadership. Patients trust certainty that’s quiet, not loud. They trust confidence that doesn’t need to prove itself. They trust professionals who believe fully in both the provider and the outcome. That belief shows up in how you hold silence, how you answer questions without defensiveness, and how you stay present when the conversation gets uncomfortable. Empathy must come before explanation. Patients decide emotionally first. Logic only works after anxiety drops. When you lead with education instead of empathy, you overwhelm people who are already nervous. You pile information on top of fear, and fear wins every time. When you lead with empathy, education becomes welcome instead of threatening. Picture a parent sitting across from you. Their thirteen year old needs braces. They’ve already Googled horror stories about pain and cost. They’re worried about whether their insurance covers enough. They’re concerned their kid will hate them for making them wear metal. They’re calculating whether they can afford this and still take the family vacation they promised. Now imagine you open with, “Let me walk you through our payment options.” You just skipped the part where you acknowledge everything swirling in their head. You treated them like a transaction instead of a person. Instead, try this: “I know this is a big decision. A lot of families feel nervous about the cost and the time commitment. That’s completely normal. Let’s talk through what matters most to you, and we’ll figure out the best path forward together.” See the difference? You just lowered their guard. You made space for their anxiety. You signaled that you’re here to guide, not pressure. Now they can actually hear what you say next. This is why objections handled with patience and validation often dissolve on their own. The patient wasn’t looking for a debate. They were looking for reassurance that someone gets it. What High Performing Orthodontic Teams Do Differently High performing teams do not eliminate patient objections. They normalize them. They understand that objections are signals, not problems. Signals that something needs to be clarified, slowed down, or emotionally supported. They don’t view objections as roadblocks. They view them as guideposts showing where the patient needs more help. These teams stay externally focused instead of retreating into their own heads. They watch body language. They notice breathing, posture, tone, and energy. They catch the micro-expressions that reveal doubt before the patient even says a word. They stay in sync with the patient instead of racing toward the close. They treat objections as moments of alignment rather than conflict. Instead of trying to win an argument, they guide the patient back to clarity. They ask open ended questions like, “What part of this feels uncertain for you?” or “Help me understand what’s holding you back.” These questions invite honesty instead of triggering defense. High performers also debrief after tough consults. They don’t just shrug off a “no” and move to the next patient. They ask themselves: Where did I lose rapport? What signal did I miss? How can I improve the orthodontic patient experience next time? This approach doesn’t feel like selling. It feels like leadership. And leadership is what patients are looking for when they walk into your practice. Free Growth Session Five Moves to Improve Case Acceptance In Your Next Consult If objections feel heavy or frequent in your orthodontic practice, start here. Reframe objections internally before responding. They’re not attacks. They’re requests. When a patient voices a concern, pause for one full breath before you answer. That pause lets you shift from defense mode to guide mode. It also signals to the patient that you’re really listening. Acknowledge emotion before explaining anything. Validation lowers resistance faster than information. Say things like, “I hear you. That makes sense.” or “A lot of families feel that way at first.” You’re not agreeing with the objection. You’re acknowledging that it’s real for them. Pay attention to where objections are being created earlier in the process. Many are preventable through better expectation setting and rapport building. If patients consistently object to cost, ask yourself: Did I build enough value before I presented fees? Did I connect treatment outcomes to what they told me they care about? Focus on connection first, solutions second. Patients cannot hear logic when they feel unseen. Spend more time in the discovery phase. Ask what brought them in today. Ask what they’ve heard about braces. Ask what concerns them most. The more you understand their world, the easier it becomes to speak directly to their needs. Build conviction in the outcome, not just the script. Confidence is felt before it’s heard. If you don’t fully believe that your practice delivers life changing results, patients won’t believe it either. Spend time remembering why you do this work. Look at your before and after photos. Read testimonials. Reconnect with the transformation you create every day. That conviction will show up in your voice, your pace, and your presence. Objections Are Where Trust Gets Won In Orthodontic Consultations In orthodontics, trust is not built by avoiding objections. It’s built by how you show up when they appear. When teams stop bracing for objections and start welcoming them, consults become calmer, clearer, and more effective. Patients feel supported instead of sold. Decisions feel aligned instead of pressured. Case acceptance rates climb because people finally feel safe saying yes. Objections are not the moment the sale is lost. They’re often the moment trust is won. Every concern a patient voices is a chance to prove you’re different. A chance to show that you’re not here to push. You’re here to partner. The practices that win are not the ones with the smoothest talkers. They’re the ones with the steadiest leaders. The ones who stay calm when patients get nervous. The ones who listen more than they speak. The ones who make people feel seen, heard, and supported through one of the biggest decisions they’ll make for their family. Your patients aren’t resisting you. They’re asking you to lead. So lead. Start today by changing how you think about the next objection you hear. See it as an invitation. Respond with empathy. Guide with confidence. Watch what happens when you stop defending and start connecting. That’s how you transform case acceptance. That’s how you build a practice people trust. That’s how you create results that stick. Free Growth Session The post Why Orthodontic Objections Disappear When You Do This! appeared first on HIP Creative.

Kevin McCallister just wanted to make his family disappear. The next morning he woke up and the bossy, critical, and negative group of people were gone. He was all alone, able to do whatever he wanted. Our culture loves this story because it personifies the central belief of the American dream—you can be your own person, set your own agenda, and pursue your own dreams. And, even if a couple robbers show up, you have it in yourself to save yourself and your house. Think about it, our most known document is the Declaration of Independence. But here is the problem, this pursuit doesn’t work and actually leads to loneliness, despair, and hopelessness. The Bible compares us to sheep for a reason. Left to themselves, sheep will get stuck, fall off a cliff, or get eaten by a wolf. Sheep need a shepherd. When Jesus declares His name to be “The Good Shepherd,” He is connecting Himself to multiple Old Testament passages, including Psalm 23 and Micah 5,promising a future Shepherd for God’s people. Not only does the Good Shepherd love, care for, and feed His sheep, but He also gives them a flock where they truly belong. And He gives us a purpose that is way bigger than ourselves. The path to an abundant and fulfilling life is found not in our independence, but in our dependence on the Good Shepherd.

What happens when you shut down during a fight with your partner—when your chest tightens, your voice vanishes, and you feel small like a scolded child?Todd explains why some people collapse during conflict while others lash out. It's not about caring less—it's about caring so much that your nervous system shuts down from shame. When shame takes over, you disappear emotionally. Your partner might see it as indifference, but the truth is you're stuck in an emotional freeze response.In this episode, Todd shares the story of Cheryl and Jerry, a couple caught in a painful pattern. Every time Jerry expressed frustration or disappointment, Cheryl would collapse into shame. She felt like a bad child, unable to access her adult self. One client described it perfectly: "Every time we argue, I feel like a six-year-old who just wants to hide in my room."The turning point came when Cheryl learned to recognize the moment shame kicked in. Instead of spiraling, she placed her hand on her heart and whispered, "You're safe now." She grounded herself with her breath, felt her feet on the floor, and imagined her adult self stepping forward. Then—still quiet, still tender—she sat beside Jerry. He later told her, "That was the first time I felt like you stayed, like you didn't disappear into shame."Here's what Todd wants you to know: Shame tells you to apologize your way back to connection. It doesn't work. Real repair doesn't come from self-erasure or over-explaining. It comes from presence. Your partner doesn't want a shame-ridden version of you. They want you whole, grounded, and available.If you notice yourself slipping into shame, try this: Name it ("This is shame, it's not the truth"), notice how it feels in your body, then regulate through breathing and grounding. Finally, reconnect—sit close, breathe with your partner, and let your presence speak.Todd offers a free guide to help: "Three Ways to Reconnect Without Talking"—practical steps to repair your relationship when shame makes words feel impossible.

For decades, researchers have searched forests, fields, cities, and forgotten places for creatures that should not exist. Enormous beings without remains. Winged entities without nests. Small humanoids without provenance. They appear suddenly, interact briefly, and then vanish, leaving witnesses shaken and evidence nonexistent.Tonight's reports suggest something unsettling. These are not creatures hiding behind trees or retreating into caves. They are beings that arrive, observe, and depart through mechanisms we do not yet understand. Not ghosts. Not folklore. Not animals as we define them. These encounters hint at a reality that overlaps our own, where cryptids and ultraterrestrials do not live here permanently but move through here, briefly visible before slipping away.

In this episode of THE MENTORS RADIO, Host Dan Hesse talks with Dr. Eswar Prasad, a Professor of Economics at Cornell, a senior fellow at Brookings, and the former head of the IMF's China division, to discuss his book The Future of Money: How the Digital Revolution Is Transforming Currencies and Finance, which was chosen as a Best Book of the Year by The Economist, The Financial Times, Foreign Affairs, ProMarket, and The Week. In The Future of Money, Dr. Prasad argues that we are at an inflection point where technology is redefining what money is, who issues it, and how it moves—pushing us toward a world with less physical cash, and an ecosystem of fintech and crypto innovations that will reshape everything from household payments to the global monetary order.

In this episode, Sarah and Miranda Rake kick things off with some Mariah Carey karaoke and a rundown of their favorite “laundry folding films.” Then journalist Courtney Martin joins to talk about the messy, tender, and often overwhelming realities of caring for aging parents while raising kids—the ultimate sandwich generation hustle. Courtney shares what it's been like to relocate her whole family, the heartbreak and beauty of moving her dad into memory care, and how communal living and worker-owned elder care centers have shaped her journey.

Shoot us a Text.Episode #1216: Today we dig into the tightening-but-shifting new-car inventory landscape, explore Nissan's bold attempt to rediscover its “North Star”, and watch Target leapfrog competitors by baking full-on AI shopping directly into ChatGPT.Show Notes with links:November brought a slight dip in overall new-vehicle inventory, but the real headline for dealers is how quickly anything under $25K is evaporating from lots—and how quickly EV days' supply is rising. Here's the breakdown:U.S. new-vehicle inventory fell 1.6% to 3.09M units, but days' supply ticked up from 70 to 73.Sub-$25K vehicles are practically mythical—spending 1.5 days on lots.EV supply ballooned from 107 to 126 daysHybrids sit at a 60-day supply, ICE vehicles at 75 days; minivans remain leanest at 58 days.Toyota continues to run the tightest ship in the industry with 31 days of supply.Christian Meunier isn't pulling punches—Nissan has been drifting for years, and he says the U.S. turnaround now depends on sharper execution, stronger product, and yes…better dealer performance.Meunier says Nissan had “no North star, no vision and no direction,” prompting him to bring headquarters staff back in-office four days a week to accelerate decisions and rebuild momentum.U.S. sales have fallen 40% in a decade, market share is down to 6.4%, and heavy discounting has trained shoppers to view Nissan as “the cheap one.”Nissan needs at least 7–8% retail share to support its 1,067 U.S. stores, and if the brand can't lift demand, fewer dealers may be necessary.“Christian is the right man for the job. It's just a hard job,” said dealer council lead Mike Rezi.Target is jumping headfirst into AI commerce by embedding its shopping experience directly into ChatGPT, building on OpenAI's growing presence in e-commerce with Shopify and Etsy integrations.Users can search, add to cart, and check out via ChatGPT using their Target account.The integration supports drive-thru and pickup orders within the chat interface.This move mirrors Walmart's AI ambitions, but Target is first to market with a confirmed rollout.“Target is a great example of what that shift looks like when it's done with ambition and speed,” said Fidji Simo, OpenAI CEO of Applications.Thank you to today's sponsor, Mia.

Send us a textAnonymous LLCs — Separating Your Name from Your AssetsIn this episode of The Privacy & Freedom Podcast, Forrest Garvin takes you deep into one of the most powerful — and misunderstood — tools for modern privacy and asset protection: the Anonymous LLC. Also known as a “Ghost LLC,” this structure allows you to legally own property, businesses, and assets without your personal name appearing on public records.Forrest explains how data brokers, trial lawyers, and even online stalkers use state business registries to track ownership, target individuals, and uncover wealth. Then he shows how Anonymous LLCs provide a legal firewall between you and your holdings — protecting your family, your finances, and your freedom. You'll learn which states offer the strongest privacy laws (like Wyoming and New Mexico), how registered agents keep your identity off public filings, and how to layer your LLCs for maximum protection.This episode also uncovers the biggest mistakes people make when setting up “anonymous” entities — from using the wrong address or email to accidentally revealing ownership through tax or payment records. Forrest walks you through how to do it the right way, step-by-step.At Garvin Academy, Forrest teaches both the Disappear on the Internet course — a complete 25-hour guide to wiping your digital footprint — and his exclusive How to Create an Anonymous LLC course, which walks you through building and managing a true privacy protected business entity. Both courses are available now at GarvinAcademy.com.Because in today's world, privacy and security are freedom — and if your name is tied to everything you own, you don't truly own anything at all.Take back control of your online privacy with Proton Mail, the world's most trusted encrypted email service.

If you're ready to trade tired resolutions for a year that feels like a work of art, step inside the School of Self-Image for The Curated Year Workshop. https://schoolofselfimage.com/join Every December, a mysterious entry appears on my calendar that simply says: UNAVAILABLE. No meetings. No calls. No exceptions. Those closest to me don't even ask anymore – they know I'm about to perform my annual disappearing act. I've done this long enough now to know… Those 24 hours are one of the biggest reasons my life doesn't feel like the same year dressed up in different clothes. Today, I want to tell you why I disappear for one day every year, what the holiday overwhelm is really costing you, and why giving yourself this kind of space can completely change your self-image and the year ahead. Here's what we cover: • Why stepping away for 24 intentional hours can break the cycle of repeating the same year • How distance, rest, beauty, and new environments create clarity • The difference between default goals and vision-led goals rooted in desire and honesty • How curation (reflecting, imagining, and choosing) reshapes both your year and identity • Why most women stay stuck in loops and how pausing helps you see new possibilities • How designing your year like a masterpiece leads you to become the woman you want to be Did you enjoy this episode?

If your people are saying, “Please—no more stuff,” this episode is your new holiday playbook. Kathi Lipp and Roger Lipp share 10 consumable gift ideas that show big love without adding to anyone's storage, from treat boxes and breakfast baskets to dinner kits, coffee/tea samplers, and even the tricky categories—candles, body care, and yes, cleaning supplies (only for the right person!). Listeners will learn Kathi Lipp's simple 3–6 month test for choosing truly clutter‑free gifts, how to tailor consumables to minimalists, caregivers, and folks in transition, and how to make gift‑giving personal with paper-and-pen “use it up” favorites, baking kits in a bowl, and thoughtful frozen‑food gifts.

Episode web page: https://bit.ly/4rA1kKW Episode summary: In this episode of Insights Unlocked, host Nathan Isaacs sits down with Mike Mace, Executive Business Strategist at UserTesting, to explore a major shift already underway in the tech landscape: the rise of AI-powered conversational interfaces. Drawing from decades of industry experience, Mike warns that this is not a distant future trend—it's happening now, and it's reshaping how companies must approach user experience, product design, and customer interaction. What you'll learn in this episode: Why companies need to stop treating AI as just a feature and start seeing it as a transformational force How conversational interfaces are changing the rules for software UX—much like the shift to graphical interfaces decades ago Why today's AI tools require testing not only for usability but also for tone, personality, and brand alignment How emotional responses to AI-driven conversations can dramatically impact user trust and satisfaction Simple strategies companies can use today to evaluate and improve their AI experiences Mike also shares practical advice on how to begin adapting to this shift, including how to use tools like ChatGPT to understand user behaviors and preferences in real time.

Continuing to look at this years Cavs team, a big concern is the squad not being able to finish it out in the fourth quarter.

"Forgiveness, on the other hand, is still, and quietly does nothing. ²It offends no aspect of reality, nor seeks to twist it to appearances it likes. ³It merely looks, and waits, and judges not. ⁴He who would not forgive must judge, for he must justify his failure to forgive. ⁵But he who would forgive himself must learn to welcome truth exactly as it is."

Birdie Jaworski (aka Prudence Calabrese) became interested in remote viewing in 1995 after the Defense Intelligence Agency and the Stanford Research Institute declassified the Stargate Program. She was trained in military grade remote viewing by Dr. Courtney Brown and soon became Vice President of the newly created Farsight Institute in 1996. After a year, she left to form her own remote viewing organization called TransDimensional Systems (TDS), where she was joined by John Vivanco, who became Vice President. In 1998/99, she remote viewed the next terrorist attack on US and drew the twin towers with planes flying into it. Her successful prediction of the September 11, 2001, attack brought her mainstream media attention, where she was interviewed by news organizations from around the world. Her successful prediction also brought her the unwelcome attention of the intelligence community, whereby she began experiencing serious harassment and threats. Fearing for her five young children, she abolished TDS and went underground in 2002. After 22 years of staying out of the public arena with her remote viewing sessions, which she privately continued, she reemerged in 2024 to form a new remote viewing organization called TransDimensional Mapping (TDM). In her first Exopolitics Today interview with Dr. Michael Salla, Birdie discusses what happened to her and what she did during her 22 years of private remote viewing. She discusses remote viewing deep underground military bases where huge space arks are being built, Gray extraterrestrials who have been visiting Earth for millennia, Inner Earth civilizations, giants, human cloning, supersoldiers and the ancient origins of 3I/Atlas.

In this episode, Travis and Eric break down the viral news about Donald Trump's floated idea of introducing 50-year mortgages. They unpack the financial realities, the math, the pros and cons, and why this proposed change sent shockwaves through social media—especially in the real estate world. From bank incentives to equity timelines to whether long-term loans actually help buyers, this is a practical and surprisingly entertaining deep dive into what the future of homebuying could look like. ✖️ ✖️ ✖️ ✖️

In one of the most disturbing developments we've covered on Hidden Killers, the mother at the center of a missing-child case — Ashlee Buzzard — is now a free woman. No charges keeping her inside a jail cell, no requirement to cooperate, no legal mandate to reveal where her daughter is or whether the child is even safe. She walked out the door while the public stood there begging for answers. And she gave them none. This episode digs deep into the legal reality nobody wants to admit: the system isn't failing. It's working exactly as designed — and that's the problem. In the United States, parental rights sit at the top of the legal pyramid. A parent can refuse to answer questions. A parent can withhold a child's location. A parent can avoid welfare checks, shut out investigators, and vanish behind phrases like “I don't have to tell you anything.” Silence isn't a crime. Evasion isn't a crime. Even being the last person to see a missing child isn't automatically a crime. Meanwhile, the child at the center of all of this remains missing. No confirmed sightings. No independent verification of safety. No evidence that she is alive — or that she isn't. And the very structure of the system forces investigators to wait for proof they cannot legally obtain without the cooperation of the one person who refuses to give it. This episode breaks down how this twisted framework came to be, why law enforcement's hands are tied, how mental-health crises go unaddressed until they become catastrophes, and why American child-protection laws continue to overlook the exact situations that need decisive intervention. Because a system that allows a missing child to slip into a legal gray zone — while the parent walks away untouched — isn't just flawed. It's dangerous. It's outdated. And it's time the public understands just how easy it is for a parent to disappear their own child without immediate accountability. If you care about child safety, accountability, and closing the gaps that let tragedies unfold in silence, this is a conversation you cannot miss. #HiddenKillers #TonyBrueski #MissingChildCase #AshleeBuzzard #ChildSafety #LawEnforcement #TrueCrimeNews #ChildProtection #JusticeSystem #TrueCrimeCommunity Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

In one of the most disturbing developments we've covered on Hidden Killers, the mother at the center of a missing-child case — Ashlee Buzzard — is now a free woman. No charges keeping her inside a jail cell, no requirement to cooperate, no legal mandate to reveal where her daughter is or whether the child is even safe. She walked out the door while the public stood there begging for answers. And she gave them none. This episode digs deep into the legal reality nobody wants to admit: the system isn't failing. It's working exactly as designed — and that's the problem. In the United States, parental rights sit at the top of the legal pyramid. A parent can refuse to answer questions. A parent can withhold a child's location. A parent can avoid welfare checks, shut out investigators, and vanish behind phrases like “I don't have to tell you anything.” Silence isn't a crime.

In this harrowing Hidden Killers special, Tony Brueski sits down with psychotherapist Shavaun Scott to unpack one of the most haunting modern tragedies — the disappearance of nine-year-old Melodee Buzzard and the slow, visible mental collapse of her mother, Ashlee Buzzard. Every warning was there: relatives cut off, a child missing from school rolls, no homeschool paperwork, a home in disarray. Then came the wigs, a license-plate swap, a multi-state trip — and a mother returning without her daughter. Weeks later, an alleged false-imprisonment incident involving multiple locks and a box cutter confirmed the nightmare. Through a clinical and human lens, Shavaun exposes how “the system worked exactly as designed — and that's the problem.” Families are handcuffed by “imminent danger” laws that demand proof before help, while crises spiral into tragedy. Tony and Shavaun break down how to recognize delusion, how to act before it's too late, and how the laws meant to protect privacy are now costing lives. This is a deep, emotional exploration of failure — and what must change before another Melodee disappears. #HiddenKillers #TonyBrueski #ShavaunScott #MelodeeBuzzard #AshleeBuzzard #TrueCrime #ChildSafety #MentalHealthCrisis #BrokenSystem #JusticeForMelodee Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

John talks about Minority leader Chuck Schumer and the eight Senate Democrats who signed onto a Republican offer to end the federal shutdown. The bill now must pass through the House, which is scrambling to return to D.C. The deal includes guarantees of back pay to federal workers, a promise of longer-term funding for certain programs and the promise of a vote to possibly extend ACA subsidies. Then, he welcomes back Professor Corey Brettschneider to discuss the details on the shutdown, SCOTUS hearing the Tariffs case, and the Supreme Court saying it WON'T hear an appeal to the Obergefell decision that legalized gay marriage. Then winding it up John jokes with comedian Rhonda Hansome and listeners about current politics and pop culture.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
