A House subcommittee took a close look at autonomous vehicles, while a bill would ensure electric vehicle owners help pay for roads. Also, we have a nominee to head NHTSA, a federal agency with a huge impact on trucking. Then, the new Congress wasted no time drilling down into the truck parking crisis.

Within hours of Donald Trump's inauguration, numerous executive actions were signed and over 1500 pardons were issued for nearly all of the January 6th defendants, despite his vice president and attorney general nominee suggesting a more refined approach. So, on this first full day of Trump's second term, hosts Andrew Weissmann and Mary McCord review the blunt nature of these pardons, especially for those convicted of violent acts that day. Then they turn to pardons issued by President Biden in his final hours in office to shield those targeted by Trump for retribution- including members of Congress, those who testified in the J6 investigation, and members of his own family. And finally, Mary and Andrew dive into the myriad of executive actions signed by Trump as legal challenges begin to mount around things like getting rid of birthright citizenship, using the military domestically at our border, undoing the TikTok ban and the creation of DOGE.Further reading: Here is Mary's recent write up in the Atlantic: A Sweeping January 6 Pardon Is an Attack on the JudiciaryWant to listen to this show without ads?

Humans have been trying to control the weather for thousands of years, from sacred dances to cloud seeding. But Mother Nature just keeps being herself and rather than adapting to her we try to change her completely. Since the 1940s forest fires have burned far fewer acres, dropping from 40-50 million in the 30s to less than 10 million today. Despite this fact, the media always focuses on yearly forest fires and claim they are the result of climate change. Alternatively, opposition to this narrative is the idea that all fires are a result of DEWs or geoengineering, which, ironically, is offered as a solution to the former. Both narratives leave out lighting, campfires, fireworks, cigarettes, and intentional arson. The Park fire in California is said to have been exacerbated by climate change yet the the truth is it was started by an arsonist, like the dozens of similar arsonists in Greece who were arrested, or the human caused fires in Alberta, Canada. Another fire in California, the Flora fire, was caused by sparks from a vehicle driven without a tire. Environmental terrorism is very real and can even cause cumulonimbus flammagenitus, or pyrocumulonimbus, storms generated from the heat. Observation and reporting systems are just as critical to these terrorists who wish to frighten us to make political changes by always moving the goalpost and terrifying the public with emotional appeals and out of context videos and pictures. Declarations of emergency for disease and things like wildfires are also scams to steal government money in the name of helping, proving there is always money in the emergency declaration banana stand.-FREE ARCHIVE & RSS: https://www.spreaker.com/show/the-secret-teachings Twitter: https://twitter.com/TST___Radio Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/thesecretteachings WEBSITE (BOOKS, RESUBSCRIBE for early show access): http://thesecretteachings.info Paypal: rdgable@yahoo.com CashApp: $rdgable EMAIL: rdgable@yahoo.com / TSTRadio@protonmail.com

Vivek Ramaswamy, Jared Kuschner and Donald Trump conspired to violate your privacy rights in a scheme using Ramaswamy's startup company to handle your data. Trump waived HIPPA and other privacy rights in his COVID-19 Emergency Declaration. And then Joe Biden used that foundation set by Trump to force vaccine mandates.

Ron DeSantis expanded a state of emergency to include more counties as the southern U.S. braces for Hurricane Idalia to make landfall Wednesday. While 33 of Florida's 67 counties were under the previous executive order, DeSantis' updated order issued Monday now includes 46 counties. The National Weather Service said Tuesday that Idalia is "expected to rapidly intensify into an extremely dangerous major hurricane" before making landfall. DeSantis said Monday that Idalia is expected to develop into at least a category 3 hurricane by the time it makes landfall, according to CBS News. The National Weather Service states that with a category 3 hurricane, "devastating damage will occur," and things such as utilities, trees and well-built homes may incur major damages. In preparation for Idalia's landfall, DeSantis fully activated the Florida National Guard, and 5,500 are expected to be mobilized to respond to the storm. Additionally, dozens of public schools have closed down and the state government is taking additional steps to ensure people have access to food. Biden posted Monday on X, the platform formerly known as Twitter, that he spoke with DeSantis "to inform him that we've approved the Emergency Declaration for Florida as they prepare for Hurricane Idalia," and he said, "Florida has my full support as they prepare for Idalia and its aftermath." https://www.theblaze.com/news/kyle-rittenhouse-sued-by-estate-of-the-child-molester-he-blew-away-in-self-defense Kyle Rittenhouse sued by estate of the convicted child molester he blew away in self-defense Kyle Rittenhouse shot three attackers who mobbed him during a leftist riot in Kenosha, Wisconsin, on Aug. 25, 2020. Two of the three are no more. He was cleared of all charges in 2021. Despite being found not guilty by a jury of his peers, Rittenhouse has since had to fight various efforts to paint him as a villain and to punish him for defending himself. The most recent attempt comes in the form of a civil lawsuit filed by the convicted child molester Joseph Rosenbaum's estate Friday in the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Wisconsin. Texas Scorecard reported that the suit names Rittenhouse as a defendant along with local sheriff's departments, Kenosha officials, the City of Kenosha, the City of West Allis, and various counties, demanding "compensatory and punitive damages" for the "wrongful death" of Rosenbaum. The Washington Post noted that Rosenbaum spent most of his adult life in prison after preying upon five preteen boys. It appears his life on the outside was marked by rage and rootlessness. For instance, one month prior to his demise, Rosenbaum's fiancée, Kariann Swart, pressed charges against him for domestic abuse. Just hours before catching four bullets, the homeless and bipolar 36-year-old had been released from a hospital following a suicide attempt, reported NPR. Fresh out of the hospital, Rosenbaum joined in the destructive riots that kicked off in response to the non-fatal police shooting of Jacob Blake, whom state prosecutors indicated had been wanted on a felony warrant and was armed with a knife. Rittenhouse's lawyers claimed during his murder trial that Rosenbaum attempted to "engage" the youth, at which point Rittenhouse attempted to flee. Rosenbaum gave chase, threw a sack of belongings at him, then, according to witness testimony, attempted to disarm the then-17-year-old by force. Footage of the incident shows that it was only when the 17-year-old appeared cornered in a car lot did he open fire. In addition to claiming Rosenbaum was a peaceful protester who "was not a danger to himself or others," the Rosenbaum estate cast Rittenhouse in the lawsuit as a menace who "fired his assault rifle indiscriminately multiple times," despite the 17-year-old's documented restraint and sure aim. While Rosenbaum can be seen on film chasing down the boy, the suit alleges that "there was no justification for Defendant Rittenhouse to point his weapon at Joseph Rosenbaum." https://www.foxnews.com/media/federal-judge-dismisses-university-wyoming-students-lawsuit-trans-sorority-member Federal judge dismisses University of Wyoming students' lawsuit against trans sorority member University of Wyoming sorority members’ lawsuit for the inclusion of a transgender student in their organization was dismissed by a federal judge on Friday. In March, several current and former members of the University of Wyoming’s Kappa Kappa Gamma sorority sued the national sorority to revoke the membership allowing what they described as "peeping" transgender student Artemis Langford. Despite the women’s descriptions of Langford’s alleged actions, the judge ruled that the school did not violate any policies by allowing the student to join. "The University of Wyoming chapter voted to admit - and, more broadly, a sorority of hundreds of thousands approved - Langford. With its inquiry beginning and ending there, the Court will not define ‘woman’ today. The delegate of a private, voluntary organization interpreted ‘woman’, otherwise undefined in the nonprofit's bylaws, expansively; this Judge may not invade Kappa Kappa Gamma's freedom of expressive association and inject the circumscribed definition Plaintiffs urge," the judge said. The ruling continued, "Holding that Plaintiffs fail to plausibly allege their derivative, breach of contract, tortious interference, and direct claims, the Court dismisses, without prejudice, Plaintiffs' causes of action." The lawsuit brought by seven members of Kappa Kappa Gamma claimed that Langford violated sorority policies by joining a sorority despite not being a woman or making efforts to appear female. https://dailycaller.com/2023/08/29/biden-ukraine-funding-deal/ Biden Seeks Long-Term Military Aid to Ukraine to Prevent Next President From Scaling Back Funding The Biden administration is seeking to hammer out a long-term Ukraine aid agreement with European allies in hopes of both preventing Russia from gaining an edge on the battlefield and hamstringing a future president’s ability to scale back U.S. commitments, The Wall Street Journal reported Tuesday. The scheme emerged during sideline talks among Group of Seven leaders at a NATO summit in July, and so far involves negotiations between the U.S. and Ukraine, and between the United Kingdom (U.K.) and Ukraine, according to the WSJ. It’s an attempt, in part, to convince Russian President Vladimir Putin he can simply wait until a new American administration, as several top GOP political contenders have expressed intention to reduce or eliminate U.S. aid that makes up the brunt of Western support. Building up Kyiv’s defense forces in the long term can theoretically deter Russia from invading again, officials calculated, according to the WSJ. Former President Donald Trump has maintained a lead in Republican primary candidate polling and could face a second showdown with President Joe Biden in the 2024 election. Trump has claimed he could solve the war “within 24 hours.” At the first Republican primary debate Wednesday, several candidates indicated they would support drawing down aid for Ukraine. Eighteen countries not belonging to the G-7 wealthy democracies, including the Netherlands and Sweden, have also agreed to the long-term security assistance pledge for Ukraine, according to the WSJ. European capitals want to cement support and restrict ways countries could renege on pledges, fearing what might happen during a second Trump administration, according to the WSJ. At present, Western European nations lack the industrial and financial capacity to match the billions in annual military aid provided by the U.S. Since Russia launched a full-scale invasion of Ukraine in February 2022, the U.S. has devoted more than $40 billion worth of weapons and equipment, as well as training and investment into U.S. weapons companies, for the purpose of aiding Ukraine’s resistance. The aid has exposed weaknesses in American military readiness and industrial base capacity, provoking criticism that the U.S. should be using those funds to shore up defenses with an eye toward China as the war in Ukraine drags on with no end in sight. However, the practical workings of the agreement pose significant hurdles to the Biden administration’s goals, the WSJ reported, citing officials. A sitting president has limited ability to bind his successor to any initiative or policy.

The Heartland Institute's Donald Kendal, Jim Lakely, Chris Talgo, and Linnea Lueken present episode 411 of the In The Tank Podcast. After the supposed hottest days, weeks, and month ever recorded and the unfolding disaster in Hawaii, many climate activists are lining up to pressure the Biden Administration to declare a "climate emergency."

President Joe Biden and the UN are likely to declare an “official” global climate emergency next week. All the signs are there. The chatter, and the behind the scenes maneuvering. The UN's website now has a climate emergency page. Biden the other day stopped short, but when the new temperature numbers are issued on August 15by NOAA, that may be all the justification Biden needs. The “melting in Antarctica and the supposed subsequent sea level rise” will be another, and Lahaina in Maui burning to the ground will be cited as yet another.If Biden declares a climate emergency, will climate lockdowns follow? History suggests “yes.” In a plausible scenario, we could see gas rationing, restrictions on electricity use, and limits on air travel. Enjoy steaks? Well, you can forget those.But what is the truth about Antarctica ice and Maui fires? Tune in LIVE at noon CT on Friday, August 11 to find out. Host Anthony Watts and Heartland's H. Sterling Burnett, Linnea Lueken, and Donald Kendal will discuss it all, and more.

There has never been a summer like this in recorded history.This is not the first time we have confronted the harsh realities of unrelenting planetary heat, but most would agree, this has been a summer like no other.                                                       The role of climate change in our lives now and in the future is revealing itself, and it's absolutely terrifying. We've passed into a ferocious new phase of global heating with much worse to come. It's way pass time for bold action as earth's climate enters dangerous phase.The world must declare a climate emergency. A logical place to start would be with the United States of America. A fundamental question that is looming over humanity is, can the rest of the world save itself from climate breakdown if the richest, most powerful nation on earth is not taking the leadership role it must?The world's wealthiest, most influential, and by far, the greatest polluter of all time needs to jump-start what could be a world-winning strategy by declaring a climate emergency that would unlock the prestige, power, and purse of the U.S. Most importantly, it would put the issue front and center on the world stage.Which is the second portion of this podcast episode. The news media is failing us. Sure they report on the crazy climatic events happening – they have to! It's too gigantic to ignore. But they are still treating it as weather news, and not the unstable planet-shifting crisis it is revealing itself to be.  Research into media coverage of climate change has demonstrated that the news media are an important source of information about climate change. They have significant potential to influence public understanding and perceptions of the issue.  And more importantly, affect public opinion directly through determining climate policy laws. And more than that, there should be glaring and blaring headlines EVERY SINGLE DAY, and the reporting should place the blame squarely where it belongs – on the fossil fuel industry and its lackeys in the Republican Party.                                  –  THIS IS TOO BIG A MOMENT TO PASS UP  –A CALL TO ACT: A Comprehensive On-Line Encyclopedia of Eco-SolutionsPODCAST INDEXEPISODE WEBPAGE

Thank you for joining us for another episode of OccPod, the official ACOEM podcast. In this episode, Erin and Dr. Nabeel discuss the end of the COVID-19 Public Health Emergency Declaration. On May 11, 2023, the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) allowed the federal Public Health Emergency (PHE) for COVID-19, declared under Section 319 of the Public Health Service (PHS) Act, to expire. Over the last two years, the Biden Administration has implemented the largest adult vaccination program in U.S. history, with nearly 270 million Americans receiving at least one shot of a COVID-19 vaccine. Because of this and other efforts, daily reported COVID-19 cases are down approximately 92 percent since the peak Omicron surge in January of 2022. For information on COVID-19 vaccines and other immunizations, please visit acoemvaxinfo.org.

Political experts analyze the latest news, including the end of the 2023 legislative session and a verdict in the trial against former President Donald Trump.

In this episode, we define public health emergency and the end of the State of Emergency and what does that mean for the rest of us in the country.  We talk about what that means for vaccines, medications, masks, the Emergency Use Authorizations or EUA, mandates, keeping our children and other vulnerable family members safe, insurance and what will be available for managing infection with this Emergency Declaration coming to an end.ReferencesWHO .

On Wednesday's show: Pres. Joe Biden officially ended the COVID-19 national emergency declaration this week after three years. The declaration enabled the government to make large-scale, decisive moves in the realms of public health and the economy to respond to the coronavirus pandemic. We discuss what its end means for Houston and reflect on its impact. Also this hour: We discuss the latest developments in politics in our weekly roundup. And recent kidnappings in Mexico brought the topic of medical tourism to the forefront, but it's not just Mexico.

Live—from the campus of Hillsdale College in beautiful Hillsdale Michigan— this is Scot Bertram in for Steve on the Steve Gruber Show for   –Thursday, March 30th 2023—   —Here are 3 big things you need to know—   One — Pope Francis has a respiratory infection and will be hospitalized for several days.  The Vatican says Francis has been experiencing difficulty breathing in recent days.  It was discovered after the pope went to a hospital in Rome to undergo scheduled medical checkups.   Two—   The state's personal income tax rate will officially drop to four-point-zero-five percent for next year. State Treasurer Rachael Eubanks says the rate will fall from the current four-point-25 percent, but argues it should only fall for one year. The drop is due to a law in 2015 that called for the tax cut if revenues exceed a certain cap factored in inflation. The law's authors say the tax cut should be permanent.   Three -- The Senate is voting to end the nation's COVID-19 Emergency Declaration.  On Wednesday, the GOP-led resolution was passed 68-to-23 to end the national emergency that's been in place since 2020.  The bill is now on the way to the desk of President Biden.
