 THE LEGACY OF THE GREAT COMMUNICATOR Colleague Max Boot. Boot reflects on Reagan's legacy, noting his "genial and aloof" personality rooted in childhood trauma. He discusses the superficial nature of Reagan's diaries, his economic record aided by Paul Volcker, and his unassuming nature, exemplified by a story about an uncomfortable chair he refused to complain about.

There is a lot of discussion about "affordability," especially regarding young Americans' ability to buy their first home and achieve financial stability. A key step in achieving that American dream is getting a good job, but the problem is that getting that job has become harder, especially for Gen Z. Economic growth is being driven by productivity and investment in artificial intelligence, rather than by hiring. This is creating what some call a "jobless boom" in some industries. Translation: the job market is very competitive. Suzy Welch, a Professor of Management Practice at NYU's Stern School of Business, and author of the book Becoming You, joins FOX Business' Lydia Hu to discuss the state of the job market and how to navigate it.

Let's talk about Trump causing more economic damage just in time for Christmas....

On Tuesday's Mark Levin Show, WREC's  Ben Ferguson fills in for Mark. President Trump is smashing economic records because of the Big, Beautiful Bill. This is the result of bold leadership—tax cuts that put money back in your pocket and tariffs that put America first. The numbers don't lie: billions of dollars have flowed into the economy since Trump took office. The media won't tell you this. They're too busy fearmongering about inflation. Yes, the price index rose 2.8 percent—big deal. Some economists warn about interest rates, but the fundamentals are strong. Growth is real, and it proves the America First agenda works—better than anything Biden could ever dream of. Compare this to Biden's disaster—his stagflation nightmare. Trump has crushed that tenfold. He's delivering prosperity while Biden would have delivered misery. The fake news media will keep lying, keep spinning, and try to scare you. But the truth is undeniable: Trump is making historic, record-breaking changes to our economy, and the American people are winning because of it. Learn more about your ad choices.

Happy Holidays and welcome back to another episode of The Richer Geek Podcast! Today, we are joined by Rod Khleif, a multifamily real estate investor, best-selling author, and host of a top 1% business podcast with over 20 million downloads. Rod shares his journey from growing up with very little, to losing $50M during the 2008 crash, and rebuilding a stronger, purpose-driven real estate business. This episode focuses on mindset, taking action despite fear, and why real estate continues to create opportunity during uncertain markets. If you tend to overanalyze or feel stuck waiting for the "right time," this conversation is for you. In this episode, we chat about… The real reason most first-time investors stay stuck in analysis paralysis Why mindset and psychology matter more than technical knowledge How fear, regret, and limiting beliefs stop people from taking action Why real estate is still full of opportunity during economic uncertainty The importance of partnerships between analytical and relationship-driven investors How gratitude and giving back became a core part of Rod's success Why surrounding yourself with the right peer group changes everything Key Takeaways: Fear regret more than failure. Most people don't fail because they tried—they fail because they never started. Mindset drives results. Success is mostly psychological, not technical. Play to your strengths. Partner, hire, or align for your weaknesses. Real estate is a team sport. There are many roles beyond finding deals. Economic shifts create opportunity. The best deals often appear when others hesitate. Gratitude changes everything. It strengthens resilience and fuels long-term success.   Resources from Rod LinkedIn  | rodslinks.com | The Lifetime CashFlow Through Real Estate Investing Podcast Resources from Mike and Nichole Check out our latest project here: Barcelona Hotel Fund LinkedIn  | Gateway Private Equity Group | Nic's guide

Send us a textStrategy comes alive when the economy is viewed like a chessboard. We reframe Nigeria's markets across 64 squares, where each square represents an industry and each piece mirrors a real actor: kings as policy institutions, queens as visionary industrialists, rooks as powerful conglomerates, bishops as diagonal innovators, knights as agile dealmakers, and pawns as the countless SMEs pushing toward promotion. What looks like a flat board hides a layered terrain of liquidity, regulation, and technology—tilts that speed up some moves and slow others.We unpack how colonial openings constrained the early game and how today's middle game is defined by consolidation, alliances, and vertical integration across cement, energy, finance, logistics, and telecoms. From diversification to innovation leaps, we explore the tactics that build durable advantage in Nigeria's economy: strategic castling through public–private partnerships, surviving regulatory ambushes like sudden forex or tax changes, and the long march of promotion as startups scale into regional leaders. We highlight the role of industrialists who move like queens across multiple files, the steady influence of rooks in pan-African institutions, and the surprising jumps of knights who time entries and exits for outsized impact.At the center of this story are SMEs—the pawns whose disciplined grind unlocks transformation. With patient play, access to capital, and smart policy, the smallest pieces can reshape entire files. We close with practical takeaways: choose the right square, understand your piece, read the gradients beneath your market, and plan three moves ahead. If you're a founder, policymaker, or operator, this lens helps you make clearer decisions, build resilient strategies, and spot new diagonals of growth.Enjoy the episode, then share it with someone who's ready to rethink their playbook.

Let's talk about the GOP saying Trump's economic speech fell flat for the obvious reason....

Looking ahead, 2026 is shaping up to be a political reckoning.Economic indicators point toward accelerating growth. Consumer confidence is rebounding. Tariff revenue is pouring in. Jobs are returning faster than workers can fill them. Crime continues to fall, energy costs ease, and global conflicts cool instead of multiply. At the same time, election integrity measures are tightening, shrinking the procedural gray areas Democrats have relied on in close races.As power shifts, accountability follows. Investigations will multiply. Indictments will land. Convictions will follow. Not because of vengeance, but because institutional shields are cracking.The Shrapnel will wound the Democrats mightily, House seats will flip. Senate seats will flip. And careers built on arrogance and immunity, but laced with incompetence will end.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

In this December 23rd episode of The Daily Herold, Jon Herold walks through a wide-ranging news cycle during Christmas week, focusing on narrative warfare, economic optics, and the latest developments tied to intelligence agencies. The show breaks down newly released Epstein-related documents, why fabricated and unverifiable claims are being weaponized, and how those narratives mirror the Russia collusion playbook. Jon examines GDP growth figures, government spending distortions, inflation messaging, and why official economic metrics often fail to reflect reality. The episode also covers DOGE savings claims, precious metals movement, and the expanding role of AI in government and military operations. Rounding out the discussion are Truth Social posts from President Trump, foreign policy updates, the Smithsonian content review, and confirmation that former CIA Director John Brennan is a target of a Florida grand jury investigation. Throughout the episode, the focus remains on psychological operations, media manipulation, and the tactics used to shape public perception.

Today, we're shifting to another pillar of modern civilization: **the economy**. Most Americans think of the economy as something abstract — stock tickers, interest rates, inflation numbers. But the truth is simple: The economy is the system that moves food, fuel, medicine, and money. When it breaks, everything breaks. This episode is about how economic collapse happens, what it looks like on the ground, and how ordinary Americans can prepare for the shockwaves that follow.

Economic data, market trends, and retirement planning topics are often discussed without sufficient historical context. In this episode of the Money Matters Podcast, Wes Moss and Jeff Lloyd present an educational discussion that places recent economic releases and market observations within a long-term analytical framework. • Review the latest Consumer Price Index (CPI) release by situating current inflation readings within more than 80 years of historical inflation data. • Examine the historical development of the Federal Reserve's 2% inflation target by comparing it with observed inflation outcomes across multiple economic periods. • Discuss how recent government shutdowns delayed scheduled economic data releases and why temporary reporting gaps can affect short-term market narratives. • Explain commonly referenced employment metrics by outlining the differences between the household survey and the establishment survey used in labor market reporting. • Evaluate the employment-to-population ratio (EPOP), including prime working-age participation, as a frequently cited measure of labor market conditions. • Illustrate how year-over-year and multi-year inflation rates can demonstrate the compounding effect of price changes on purchasing power over time. • Compare historical inflation trends with long-term S&P 500 dividend growth to provide context on income-oriented equity characteristics. • Revisit balanced 60/40 portfolio performance in historical discussions to reinforce diversification as a commonly referenced investment framework. • Place the current bull market within a broader historical context by reviewing average cycle durations and the range of outcomes observed over time. • Observe market behavior following spring volatility, including changes in sector participation within the S&P 500. • Highlight ongoing public discussion around artificial intelligence and its potential role in productivity and efficiency across multiple economic sectors. • Review publicly reported fiscal stimulus expectations, including projected changes to tax refunds in 2026 and their possible macroeconomic implications. • Consider housing and real estate themes for the coming year by outlining economic and demographic factors commonly associated with market activity. • Summarize research-based observations on retiree well-being, including written planning approaches, engagement in meaningful activities, and social connection. For listeners seeking discussion about inflation, employment data, market history, and retirement planning concepts, this episode provides structured context grounded in long-term observations.

*Feedlot inventories continue to drop.  *USDA's NRCS has set a single deadline for farmers and ranchers to sign up for conservation programs.  *The application period for the Texas Specialty Crop Block Grant Program is now open.  *The beef industry has made massive improvements in the quality of beef sold to consumers.  *A new pasture herbicide will be available for forage producers.  *Economic assistance is available for milk and grain losses.  *Fertilization of winter pastures should be based on soil tests.  *Researchers are studying how cattle can become infected with salmonella.  

What if we told you that a record-setting tax refund is coming your way… and that it could trigger the biggest economic boom in over 40 years? In this game-changing episode, Hard Asset Management CEO Christian Briggs joins the show to break down the “One Big Beautiful Bill” signed into law under President Trump—an economic juggernaut poised to reshape the American wallet, workforce, and wealth over the next 24 months.From expanded standard deductions to massive tax breaks on tips, small business grants for the Hispanic community, and a multi-trillion-dollar GDP explosion, Christian reveals how this bill is designed to inject $4–5 trillion of stimulus into the U.S. economy by 2026. It's not just refunds—it's rocket fuel for Main Street, Wall Street, and your retirement portfolio. And with Wall Street already betting big, the stock market could see a sustained bull run fueled by tax-free cash flowing into investment apps like Robinhood.But that's just the beginning.Briggs explains how this bill also supports AI-driven growth, investing in automation and infrastructure that will reshape American labor markets—not destroy jobs, but transition them into higher-skilled, higher-paid sectors. Think electricians making $300K a year, or trade school graduates commanding six figures as they help build the backbone of America's AI data centers. Forget job loss—this is a skilled labor revolution.Yet, there's a warning embedded in all this optimism: the war over economic control isn't over. The bill's impact could be diluted if Congress reintroduces digital control mechanisms like central bank digital currencies (CBDCs) or fails to rein in inflationary threats. Briggs makes clear: President Trump's policies have stabilized oil, cooled inflation, and positioned the U.S. for real growth—but the fight isn't over.If you care about your paycheck, your future, or your financial freedom, this episode is a must-listen. Learn how energy policy, AI, job migration, tax reform, and sound money principles are coming together to create what could be the strongest economic cycle in modern U.S. history—and how to position yourself before the next wave hits.

In this episode of Nephilim Death Squad, Raven and Matt Hepner break down and react to the documentary Age of Disclosure, exposing the modern UFO disclosure agenda, government narrative control, and the spiritual deception hiding behind “alien transparency.”This is not a surface-level review. We examine:The federal UFO disclosure push and why it's happening nowThe Vatican, the LUCIFER telescope, and Mount GrahamTimothy Alberino, Watchers theology, and pre-Flood narrativesStargates, portals, pharmakeia, and biblical gatewaysWhy “aliens” are not extraterrestrial—but interdimensionalHow disclosure primes the world for a false savior narrativeThe Days of Noah, the Tower of Babel cycle, and end-times deceptionThis episode connects Scripture, ancient history, intelligence operations, and modern propaganda to show why disclosure is not about truth—but control.

Discover the interconnectedness of peddling and factory work, the surprising origins of the Aloha shirt, and the key role Syrian workers played in major labor actions like the 1912 Bread and Roses strike in Lawrence, Massachusetts. Associate Professor of History at the University of California and author of "Unmentionables: Textiles, Garment Work, and the Syrian American Working Class" Dr. Stacy D. Fahrenthold discusses her work which offers a class-conscious history of the Syrian-American diaspora, a community of about half a million people in the 1910s, 1920s and 1930s. While the "peddler" is often the central figure and icon of this diaspora's economic history for over a century, Fahrenthold shifts the focus to the new immigrants who came to the U.S. and found work in the textile industries. The conversation explores the hidden role of Syrian-American garment workers, particularly young women, who produced goods like "kimonos", undergarments, stockings, and household textiles. 0:00 Introducing Unmentionables & Shifting the Icon from Peddler to Laborer0:40 Lawrence, Massachusetts: The Second Largest Arab-American Community1:48 Who Was The Syrian American Working Class?2:41 The Gap in Arab-American Diaspora History3:14 Textiles and Garment Work4:50 The Peddler: Icon vs Reality7:12 Labor Experience In The U.S. vs Greater Syria8:50 Skilled Silk Weavers and First-Time Proletarians10:14 Syrian Workers and Global Labor Movements11:27 The Bread and Roses Strike of 191215:09 Dynamite, Arrests and Militarization of the Syrian Neighborhood19:16 Scale of Syrian Immigration Compared to Other Groups22:14 The Majority of Textile Workers Were Women24:43 The Connection to the Silk Industry in Mount Lebanon27:28 A Look Inside a Syrian-American Garment Factory29:04 The Kimono: Branding and Orientalism31:50 The Effacement of Origins in the Marketplace35:36 Economic and Social Mobility For Syrian-American Families39:03 The Legacy of Syrian-American Textile Companies40:01 The Lebanese Origins of The Aloha Shirt43:14 Marghab Linen and Racial Stereotyping44:22 Geographic Dispersion of Syrian Communities47:09 Illicit Activity and Contraband in the Diaspora49:22 Recommended Readings In Arab-American History Stacy Fahrenthold is a historian of the modern Middle East specializing in labor migration; displacement/refugees; border studies; and diasporas within and from the region.

It recently received the Middle East Studies Association's 2025 Nikki Keddie Award for "outstanding scholarly work in religion, revolution, and/or society." Her award-winning first book, "Between the Ottomans and the Entente: The First World War in the Syrian and Lebanese Diaspora" examines the politics of Syrian and Lebanese migration to the Americas during the First World War, the fall of the Ottoman Empire, and the rise of European Mandates in the Middle East.

Imagine a world where rural and tropical regions aren't struggling backwaters, but breeding ground for fresh ideas, new jobs and sustainable growth. According to OECD's Rural Innovation Pathways, rural innovation isn't just a smaller copy of what happens in cities, it's different: rooted in community‑led projects, adaptive agriculture, renewable energy, social enterprises and creative responses to local needs. https://www.oecd.org/en/publications/rural-innovation-pathways_c86de0f4-en.html The “tropical economy” vision isn't pie‑in‑the‑sky, it fits squarely within OECD's roadmap for leveraging natural capital, innovation and place‑based assets to build resilient, inclusive, future‑oriented rural economies. In today's episode of our #FromtheGroundUp series, Betty-Ann Bryce (OECD) sits down with Ingo Plöger (CEAL), for a conversation to explore how tropical regions, with abundant natural resources, rich biodiversity and favourable climate, can become engines of sustainable growth, innovation and resilient rural development. Have a listen and find out what in the world is the Tropical Economy! Ingo Plöger is a Brazilian-German engineer, entrepreneur and business leader deeply engaged in strengthening ties between Brazil, Europe and Latin America. He is currently the International President of The Business Council of Latin America (CEAL). He holds a degree in Mechanical Engineering from the Technische Universität Darmstadt (Germany) and a postgraduate degree in Economic and Labor Sciences from the Technische Universität München. Over his career he served as Executive President of the historic São Paulo firm Cia. Melhoramentos and today is founder and president of the consultancy firm IPDES, which supports institutional, corporate and cross-border business development. He participates in the boards of several major national and multinational companies and holds advisory roles with organisations like Robert Bosch GmbH among others.

Award-winning financial journalist Trish Regan breaks down what the headlines are getting wrong about the U.S. economy. From the latest jobs data to inflation, interest rates, gas prices, wages, AI job displacement, and the growing squeeze on the middle class—this conversation cuts through the spin and explains what the data really means for your money. We cover why wages “outpacing inflation” doesn't feel real, how Federal Reserve policy hits regular Americans differently than the wealthy, why housing is out of reach for an entire generation, and how energy prices quietly control the cost of everything you buy. We also dive into AI's impact on jobs, the future of work, Venezuela and global energy politics, BRICS, the U.S. dollar, and what to expect as we head toward 2026. If you're confused, frustrated, or feel like the economy you're living in doesn't match what politicians are selling—this episode explains why.

As President Trump continues his nationwide tour to tout his economic policies, some in his party are concerned that voters won't feel the effects of an improving economy in time for next year's midterm elections, especially with the soon to expire Obamacare subsidies on track to raise insurance premiums for millions of Americans. FOX News Senior White House Correspondent Jacqui Heinrich joins the Rundown to explain what the economic outlook is like on Capitol Hill, and where the big picture numbers differ from everyday reality. Later, FDA Commissioner Dr. Marty Makary joins to give an inside look on what the Administration is doing to lower healthcare costs for Americans. Learn more about your ad choices.
