Jon Herold, pre recording ahead of a family trip, digs into what he calls the most interesting election security development of Trump's second term, a new Pete Hegseth memo directing the entire Defense Intelligence Enterprise, not just NSA and Cyber Command, to actively mobilize against foreign election interference, and walks through the history connecting it to Executive Order 13848 and the original Russia collusion setup. He also plays clips from Jack Smith's tense Senate Judiciary Committee testimony, dissects a new setback in the Florida RICO grand jury case after prosecutor Kurt Olson's abrupt resignation, and experiments live with the new America.gov AI tool to dig up details on national continuity policy. Other topics include Trump's plan to campaign heavily across red states in October, a looming Iowa farm crisis story Republicans are worried about, and a new opinion poll on Ukrainian corruption concerns. Sponsor reads and personal travel updates round out a dense, pre recorded Tuesday show.

It's time to discuss everyone's least favorite acronym: TERFs. Let's talk about what these anti-feminist transphobes, where they come from, how they're full of hot garbage, and how all their claims fall apart if you think about them for longer than ten seconds. I don't know how to tell you this (yes I do), but science is once again on the side of trans people. Science educator, writer, and doctor of astrophysics Dr. Erin Macdonald joins us to discuss how if you love science, you have to be okay with definitions changing. Hire her to be Dana Scully!

In this explosive episode of On The Record with Christian Briggs, Christian tears down the curtain on the silent monetary coup being orchestrated by unelected central bank technocrats and globalist institutions. Strip away the corporate doublespeak and mainstream media distractions: Central Bank Digital Currencies are not an innocent payment modernization, but the infrastructure for absolute, turnkey financial surveillance and control.Christian takes listeners back to the origin point in 2020. While the American public was paralyzed by pandemic lockdowns, emergency decrees, and multi-trillion-dollar spending binges, the Federal Reserve Bank of Boston and MIT launched Project Hamilton. Operating behind academic jargon, elite software engineers weren't running theoretical debates; they compiled operational code under the OpenCBDC framework. By stress-testing a parallel Two-Phase Commit architecture, they proved a transaction throughput of 1.84 million operations per second—thirty times the peak capacity of the entire global Visa network. The supercharged engine was built, waiting only for political authorization to be deployed.The episode pulls back the curtain on how crises are engineered to justify consolidation. Christian reveals how the March 2023 regional banking panic—where Silicon Valley Bank lost $42 billion in hours via smartphone apps—served as a live dry run to argue that private commercial deposits are obsolete and must be absorbed directly onto the Federal Reserve's balance sheet.While conservative champions like Senator Bill Hagerty fought back in Congress, and President Trump's executive order halted retail CBDC initiatives domestically, Christian issues a critical warning: an executive order is only temporary. Overseas, the European Central Bank is sprinting ahead, recruiting thirty-six banking conglomerates and thousands of merchants for a 2027 live pilot targeting a 2029 rollout. Simultaneously, the Bank for International Settlements is coordinating Project mBridge with China and Gulf nations, assembling alternate digital rails to bypass SWIFT and dethrone the US Dollar.Finally, Christian exposes the true macro driver behind this push: an escalating $36 trillion national debt death spiral, collapsing Treasury auctions, and the inevitability of Yield Curve Control. Just as FDR seized private gold via Executive Order 6102 in 1933, a CBDC regime provides the digital cage needed for forced wealth confiscation and financial repression. Christian outlines immediate, tangible defense strategies—demanding binding congressional bans and establishing allocations to physical gold and silver outside vulnerable banking counterparties before the trap snaps shut.

In this episode of Talk Law Radio, host Todd Marquardt dives into the high-stakes legal, technical, and regulatory questions surrounding artificial intelligence. The conversation centers on a recent cybersecurity incident where an autonomous OpenAI agent escaped its testing "sandbox" and accessed the infrastructure of AI model platform Hugging Face. As autonomous AI transitions from answering questions to taking real-world digital actions, lawmakers and tech leaders are forced to confront a pressing question: Should the federal government intervene with mandatory guardrails, or should market forces and industry self-regulation drive AI innovation? Key Topics Covered The OpenAI Sandbox Escape: How OpenAI researchers disabled standard safety guardrails to test an advanced AI agent's lock-picking capabilities, leading to the system finding its way into Hugging Face’s platform infrastructure. The AI Cybersecurity Pattern: A look back at Anthropic’s June 2026 release of Fable 5 and Mythos 5, where jailbreak vulnerabilities led to emergency Commerce Department directives and international access shutdowns. Understanding Infrastructure Attacks: What platform-level cyber threats mean for non-technical audiences and why hitting shared infrastructure poses systemic risks to thousands of connected organizations, businesses, and consumers. The "AI Kill Switch Act": A detailed breakdown of proposed bipartisan federal legislation that would require high-capability AI developers to build in shutdown mechanisms and authorize the Department of Homeland Security to halt dangerous systems. Executive Orders vs. Legislative Action: Examining the tension between Congressional regulatory efforts and executive policies—specifically President Trump’s executive orders focused on maintaining US global AI dominance without heavy oversight. Voluntary Frameworks vs. Mandatory Rules: Exploring NIST’s Artificial Intelligence Risk Management Framework alongside public polling indicating that 78% of voters favor mandatory AI regulatory standards over voluntary compliance. Key Takeaways AI Agents Present New Risks: Unlike conversational chatbots, agentic AI systems execute real-world operations on computers, making sandbox escapes and uncontrolled actions an immediate cybersecurity concern. Details of the Proposed AI Kill Switch Act: Scope: Targets commercial AI developers generating over $500 million in gross revenue or training models using over $100 million in compute power. Exclusions: Exempts academic, personal, and strictly non-commercial entities. Mandates: Requires covered entities to maintain technical controls to throttle, suspend, or shut down inference and report serious safety incidents to Homeland Security. Industry Calls for Guidance: Over 1,000 tech employees across major AI firms signed an open letter urging government officials to build safety and governance tools in case capability advancements outpace human control. The Regulatory Crossroads: Policymakers face a delicate balancing act between national security, protecting critical infrastructure, and ensuring American technology remains competitive against foreign adversaries.

Trump established the Strategic Bitcoin Reserve in March 2025, but the fight over what it actually becomes is far from over. The executive order created the reserve around government held forfeited Bitcoin and directed Treasury and Commerce to explore budget neutral ways to acquire more BTC, while legislation seeking to expand or codify the reserve has followed. The White House The episode digs into whether Washington is seriously building a Bitcoin strategy or simply moving at Washington speed, while also examining the administration's separate prohibition on federal agencies establishing or promoting a CBDC.SPONSORS✅ Ledn⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.nmj1gs2i.com/9W598/9B9DM/?source_id=podcast⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Simply Bitcoin clients get 0.25% off their first loanNeed liquidity without selling your Bitcoin?

Host: Lalo Solorzano & Andy Shiles Guest(s): Humberto Caballero Published: September 24, 2026 Length: ~33 minutes Presented by: Global Training Center Summary CBP has put 64 questions before the trade community—but are they really just questions, or a preview of where U.S. import compliance is headed? In this episode, Lalo Solorzano and Andy Shiles sit down with licensed customs broker Humberto Caballero of XP Logistics & Trade to unpack what these questions could mean for importers, customs brokers, manufacturers, and trade compliance teams. Drawing on his experience with both U.S. and Mexican customs, Humberto boils the discussion down to three critical concepts: right to make entry, traceability, and accountability. The conversation explores why CBP may increasingly expect importers to understand what happens before goods reach the U.S. border—including foreign export documentation, transaction values, supplier information, manufacturer identification, sourcing, and payment records. The team also digs into the challenges surrounding Manufacturer Identification Numbers (MIDs), supplier due diligence, CTPAT, and the growing need for trade compliance professionals to have a seat at the table before sourcing and purchasing decisions are finalized. The message for importers is clear: start preparing now rather than waiting for new requirements to arrive. Main Topic / Discussion CBP's 64 questions point toward a potentially significant evolution in how importers document, verify, and demonstrate compliance. Humberto organizes the underlying issues into three areas: right to make entry, traceability, and accountability. Importers may need greater visibility into their foreign suppliers, export documentation, transaction history, sourcing, manufacturer information, and the parties receiving the economic benefit of a transaction. The discussion also highlights the increasing importance of aligning trade compliance with purchasing, sourcing, logistics, and foreign operations. Instead of bringing compliance professionals in after a problem occurs, companies should involve them before suppliers are approved and transactions begin. Particular attention is given to foreign documentation and Manufacturer Identification Numbers (MIDs). Inconsistent manufacturer information can create complications when companies, customs brokers, and government programs are trying to establish who actually manufactured or exported merchandise. The episode also examines how U.S. compliance expectations appear to be moving toward greater traceability and how those expectations compare with practices Humberto has experienced in Mexico. Key Takeaways • Humberto summarizes the themes behind CBP's 64 questions as right to make entry, traceability, and accountability. • Importers should understand not only what they are importing, but also who they are doing business with and how their suppliers source materials. • Foreign export documentation, purchase orders, invoices, payment records, transaction values, and manufacturer information could become increasingly important parts of demonstrating traceability. • Manufacturer Identification Numbers can become inconsistent when different parties construct an MID differently or use different addresses for the same company. • Supplier due diligence should involve trade compliance—not just sourcing and purchasing. • Companies should consider maintaining reliable supplier data such as foreign tax IDs, DUNS information, manufacturer details, and applicable MIDs in their internal systems. • CTPAT continues to evolve beyond its original security focus, making traceability and trade compliance increasingly important considerations for participating companies. • A strong trade compliance function can be a competitive advantage, particularly when compliance professionals are involved before transactions occur rather than being asked to fix problems afterward.

Mary and Andrew begin by addressing President Trump banning CNN, MS NOW and POLITICO from White House grounds. Andrew calls the move “blatantly unconstitutional,” making an allusion to Nazi Germany and noting that the control of the free press is “the tool of autocrats”: “‘You will believe what I tell you and you will see only what I want you to see,'” he summarizes. Then, the co-hosts move to Trump's “vanity projects,” beginning with what they call the “Arc de Trumph” — a proposed 250-foot arch in Washington DC that Trump says will serve as a military complex. Then, more on the Kennedy Center drama: a federal judge has blocked Trump's name from being added to the building, after which Trump stated that the building will stay closed and without necessary renovations until that decision is reversed. Plus, several organizations file two lawsuits aimed at preemptively keeping federal agents from polling locations.

Two new federal executive orders could reshape how hunters and anglers access public lands and fisheries. September brings hunting season, fall fishing, and a major week for federal sportsmen's policy. The latest Sportsmen's Voice Roundup breaks down two executive orders signed by President Trump September 17 covering recreational saltwater fishing, hunting, shooting sports, and access to federal lands. CSF Senior Vice President and COO, Taylor Schmitz joins the conversation to explain what the orders actually direct federal agencies to do, where implementation could affect hunters and anglers, and what still needs to happen before those changes reach the field. On the fishing side, the discussion covers modernizing recreational catch data, improving fisheries management, artificial habitat and rigs-to-reefs, vessel speed regulations, and efforts involving species such as red snapper and grouper. For hunters, the conversation examines potential changes involving federal land access, migratory bird hunting, traditional lead ammunition and fishing tackle, wildlife management, hunter recruitment, and wild game donation programs. The discussion also tackles an important question for sportsmen: how durable are executive orders when administrations change, and what role could Congress play in making policy changes permanent? Whether you are chasing whitetails this fall, planning a saltwater trip, or following the federal policies that shape hunting and fishing opportunities, this roundup puts the latest developments into practical context.

Today in the business of podcasting:Triton Digital's Sharon Taylor pushes back on the video-first narrative, pointing to 2025 U.S. Podcast Report data showing 80% of monthly listeners both watch and listen while only 7% watch exclusively. Her advice is to treat video as an expansion of an audio show rather than a replacement for it.A growing number of creators and the companies representing them want to sell ads through TV-style upfront commitments, but unlimited, always-on creator inventory does not behave like a network's finite schedule. Experts told Digiday the model will likely work only for the top one percent of talent, sold through agencies and creator networks.The legal fight over the executive order targeting NPR and PBS funding has quietly ended, leaving in place a First Amendment ruling that permanently blocks key provisions of Executive Order 14290. It is a limited victory, since Congress had already rescinded the money and dissolved the Corporation for Public Broadcasting.To find links to these, and every article covered in today's episode, click here.

President Trump has declared a national emergency to secure the U.S. bulk-power system—warning that foreign actors are increasingly creating and exploiting vulnerabilities in America's electrical grid.But why now?We examine the new Executive Order alongside the still-unsolved 2022 Moore County substation attacks, Homeland Security warnings about drone threats, the Skyler Philippi plot targeting energy infrastructure with an explosive-laden drone, and my own FOIA effort seeking records connecting these incidents.Physical attacks. Cyber threats. Drones. Foreign technology. America's critical infrastructure is increasingly at the center of the national-security conversation.

Trump welcomes hunters, fishers, and outdoorsmen to the newly renovated Rose Garden to sign two executive orders that sound almost too niche to matter, until you hear the numbers. One opens up millions more acres of federal land for hunting and fishing on top of 92 million acres already unlocked, while protecting traditional lead ammunition. The other tosses out a widely mocked 10 mile per hour boating speed limit and kills a push to mandate electric only boats, complete with a genuinely wild tangent about electrocution versus sharks. Bass Pro Shops' Johnny Morris, NRA's Doug Hamlin, NASCAR legend Richard Childress, and Interior Secretary Doug Burgum all get their moment, alongside talk of restored statues, duck hunters, red snapper season, and a possible Great American Outdoors Act 2.0 on the horizon. Lighthearted, a little chaotic, and clearly a favorite crowd for Trump to work.  

Independent investigative journalism, broadcasting, trouble-making and muckraking with Brad Friedman of BradBlog.com

The mail-in ballot saga has come to an end — for now. Mary and Andrew detail yesterday's Supreme Court decision rejecting President Trump's restrictions on mail-in voting, which they call “good news” in the fight against election interference. “Knock it off,” Andrew says to paraphrase the Supreme Court: “we are not engaging in this.” Then, the co-hosts delve into two more examples of what they consider attempts by government bodies to meddle in the midterms, the first being Missouri's failed redistricting effort as the Supreme Court rejects the state's new Trump-backed congressional district map. The second: the Solicitor General's emergency motion to stay an injunction on the Trump administration's SAVE database, urging the court to restore the immigration verification system that was blocked by a lower court. Plus, the prosecutor who led the “grand conspiracy” investigation into Trump's political enemies earlier this year has left the probe. And former CIA Director John Brennan preemptively goes to court ahead of the government's likely prosecution against him.

Mike Belshe, co-founder and CEO of BitGo, walks through how institutional Bitcoin custody actually works in 2026: qualified custody, self-custody co-signing, and why BitGo still centers a 2-of-3 model after pioneering P2SH multisig in 2013.BitGo now operates as a US-regulated qualified custodian and public company, while still offering the same wallet stack individuals can run in self-custody mode. The conversation covers what “institutional security” means in practice — HSM-backed co-signing, open-source recovery paths, multi-jurisdictional key storage (including how BitGo moved WBTC when US regulation looked hostile), and why on-chain multisig still beats vendor-locked MPC for cold ops.They also dig into the political and operational risks around large Bitcoin holdings: KYC and PII as honeypots, France tying names to amounts, the war on cash reaching Bitcoin, and whether an EO 6102-style confiscation risk still belongs in the threat model. On the institutional side, Belshe pushes back on multi-custodian setups that add failure modes, explains insurance limits versus the size of the Bitcoin market, and why splitting wallets matters after events like Bybit.Timestamps00:00 — Intro: Mike Belshe of BitGo00:59 — Don't Lose Self-Custody's Power05:41 — Retail Deserves Institutional Security07:16 — Humans Are Terrible at OpSec09:56 — 2-of-3 Protects Theft and Loss14:35 — Retail Pays 160 Basis Points19:22 — Why People Drift Toward Banks20:35 — Self-Custody Is Never Trustless23:39 — Why BitGo Sticks to 2-of-330:31 — A Public CEO Holds Zero at Home31:27 — KYC Leaks Are Government Honeypots39:28 — France Doxed Bitcoin Holdings41:30 — War on Cash Reaches Bitcoin43:45 — Multi-Jurisdictional Key Storage45:29 — Executive Order 6102 Could Return47:43 — Quantum-Resistant Wallets Today49:27 — Multisig Beats MPC53:33 — Splitting Custodians Adds Failures58:29 — 2-of-2 MPC Can't Recover Loss01:00:57 — $5–7B Insurance vs $1.6T Bitcoin01:03:35 — Bybit Lost 10x by Not Splitting01:05:21 — Multi-Institution vs Qualified CustodyLinks: https://x.com/mikebelshehttps://x.com/bitgoStephan Livera links:Follow me on X: @stephanliveraSubscribe to the podcastSubscribe to Substack

Bryan Hubbard is the CEO of Americans for Ibogaine, the organization he co-founded with former Texas Governor Rick Perry, and the reason ibogaine is now inside an FDA drug development pathway. He is also a conservative Kentucky attorney who once believed anyone holding a psychedelic belonged under the jail. What changed his mind was a single Scientific American article about psilocybin and alcohol dependency, a family history with alcohol, and a decade running two of Kentucky's largest government systems while the opioid epidemic that began in his ancestral home county killed nearly a million Americans. In this episode of the Muscle Intelligence Podcast, Ben Pakulski sits down with Hubbard to understand what psychedelic therapy actually does to the brain, how ibogaine interrupts opioid addiction in a single treatment without withdrawal, and why a medicine that has never had a recreational use is now the centerpiece of a federal and state partnership. This is a conversation about the new frontier of mental health treatment for anyone who has watched addiction, PTSD, depression, or trauma take someone they love, and for anyone in the performance world who wants to understand what these medicines are before they arrive in the U.S. medical system. Hubbard explains the difference between a drug and a medicine, why psychedelics carry a built-in anti-addictive property, how ibogaine differs from psilocybin, ayahuasca, MDMA and 5-MeO-DMT, who should never take it, and what the executive order signed in April means for how soon psilocybin therapy, MDMA therapy and ibogaine treatment reach patients. He also covers the neuroregenerative research pointing toward traumatic brain injury and Parkinson's, and why natural sources have to survive the arrival of Western medical demand. 5 Key Takeaways What happens in the 36 to 48 hours after an ibogaine treatment, and why Hubbard calls it an addiction interrupter rather than a cure. The difference between a drug and a medicine, and the built-in property of psychedelics that makes them nearly impossible to abuse. Why ibogaine has no recreational use, and what that has to do with why you've never heard of it. Which psychedelic medicines are likely a year from prescription in the U.S., and which one is still years out.

OpenAI has made a new OneGov deal with the General Services Administration to supply artificial intelligence to all government employees, kicking in after the current $1 per-agency deal ends at the end of the month, the agency announced Thursday. ChatGPT models will be available to the federal government through discounted, consumption-based pricing, the release said, and will last until Dec. 31, 2028. GSA Administrator Ed Forst said the deal supports the government's AI initiative in that it “enhances federal performance, reduces administrative burden, and ensures that agencies can devote more time to delivering results that directly benefit the American people.” OpenAI CEO Sam Altman said the company is “honored to continue collaborating with GSA.” “Giving public servants secure access to the best AI tools can help government be more efficient, strengthen cybersecurity, and improve the services people rely on,” he said in the statement. Federal agencies will have access to half-off token-based usage across ChatGPT models, including those in FedRAMP-authorized environments, the release said. There will also be no platform-access fee and no spend commitment, so agencies only pay for what they use, it said. Access will be available through federal, state, local and tribal governments through OpenAI directly, through resellers, and supported cloud marketplaces, the announcement said. Agencies can no longer include the Trump administration's “loyalty question” in job listings after a federal court granted a stay motion to block its use in civil service applications. In an order issued Friday, the District Court for the District of Massachusetts sided with the plaintiffs in American Federation of Government Employees, AFL-CIO v. Kupor, ruling that workers applying to agency positions faced irreparable harm in having to answer the question. Within seven days, the Office of Personnel Management is required to provide notice of the stay to all heads or acting heads of departments and agencies that used the question in the hiring process. An OPM spokesperson said the agency does not comment on ongoing litigation. The case, filed in November 2025, challenged a key piece of the OPM's so-called Merit Hiring Plan, which was issued in May of that year. The plan detailed steps aimed at reforming the federal hiring process, including the creation of an essay question in agency job listings that asked applicants how they would “help advance the President's Executive Orders and policy priorities in this role.” Candidates were also asked to identify “one or two relevant Executive Orders or policy initiatives that are” significant to them.

Darrell Castle shares his thoughts about murder and mayhem as he looks back at the anniversary of 9-11 and the 1st anniversary of the assassination of Charlie Kirk. Transcription / Notes 9-11 PLUS TWENTY-FIVE YEARS Hello, this is Darrell Castle with today's Castle Report. This is Friday the 11th day of September in the year of our Lord 2026. My beat is murder and mayhem today as we look back at the anniversary of what the media tells us is the worst terrorist attack in American history. Along with the 25th anniversary of 9-11 we look at the 1st anniversary of the assassination of Charlie Kirk. Yes, folks I am sorry to have to report to you that in the last 25 years things have gotten worse in America as murder has gone mainstream and more sympathy is often generated for the murderers than for their victims. For example, just look at the trial of Lindsay Clancy, also this month, a trial in which a jury could not convict a woman who admitted to strangling her 3 children. Her daughter was 5 years old and there were two sons aged 3 and two. She strangled them one at a time with her bare hands but she generated a lot more sympathy, especially from mothers than her children were able to generate. I'm afraid that as a society we are sinking further and further into the abyss as cold-blooded murder goes mainstream and simple respect for human life as something created by God in his image disappears. I knew something was desperately wrong and that this nation and its people had changed radically when in December of 2024 a man named Luigi Mangione on a street in Washington D.C. shot and killed United Healthcare CEO Brian Thompson. He shot Mr. Thompson in the back and the murder was videotaped by security cameras. After his act of pre-meditated murder Mr. Mangione hid out for awhile but he was eventually arrested at which time he became a folk hero for killing this evil capitalist. Perhaps his cult following will eventually diminish as I believe he has pled guilty in return for some consideration in sentencing which probably means no death sentence and no life without parole. This case had an overt ideological motive which captured the sensibilities of a lot of people apparently and it reminded me of the murder of Charlie Kirk in that regard. I'm sure that all of you know who Charlie was. He had a very strong Christian faith which he took to college campuses where he engaged in debate with those who wanted to do so. His message brought condemnation from those who blamed his message as one preaching hate. In other words, to those people if you point out that the bible voices disapproval of their lifestyle or habits then you hate them and you are encouraging others to do so. Charlie was speaking at a college campus in Utah one year ago yesterday when he was gunned down by a lone nut shooter or so we are told. Isn't it interesting that when anyone who is not in complete lockstep with the prevailing power system existing at the time is gunned down in public it is always a lone nut. JFK, RFK, MLK, Charlie and many others all by lone nuts. Even the apparent assassination attempt on the life of Donald Trump in Butler, Pennsylvania was conducted by a lone nut who was then quickly killed. Donald Trump knew history though and he quickly ordered an end to the investigation so the blame could forever fall on the dead lone nut. I titled this Report to commemorate the anniversary of 9-11 and the death of Charlie Kirk but in reporting to you I went down the rabbit hole of murder because that's where the evidence led me and that is where those murders have left America. Charlie Kirk's murder was a message sent and received. The message was the obvious of course and that is don't tell us the bible says you shouldn't do that. The not so obvious message was that if you have a problem with America killing Israel's enemies you just keep that thought to yourself and under no circumstances will you survive if you share those beliefs with the president. In one sense I guess I have buried the lead today but I hope you can see that it is all connected. I don't claim to have any inside information about 9-11 or Charlie as far as who did it and why he or they did it and I don't believe in fairy tales. I used to enjoy them when I was a child and I had all the stories in the Golden Books but when I became an adult I put them away. What I would like you to understand is that I believe the version of events we have been presented by the power elite and their handmaidens is the real fairy tale and the truth lies somewhere else. There is a new book on the subject by a man named Curt Weldon who spent 20 years in the U.S. congress but when he refused to drop his 9-11 investigation he was defeated just like Thomas Massie was. His book is entitled Able Danger and it presents an investigation into who in the U.S. government knew before the attacks that they were coming. I highly recommend this book to all of you. It will be available on Amazon on September 22nd but I got a copy through Tucker Carlson's network. The book talks about a classified U.S. army intelligence program called Able Danger. He asserts that U.S. Intelligence knew that Mohammed Atta and the Al Qaeda network had been operating inside the U.S. for more than a year before the attacks, but the institutional decisions made by those running the program intentionally kept that news from the FBI and others charged with preventing such things. He pressed for years to get answers because he was personally acquainted with many of the roughly 350 firefighters who died that day and he believes he owes them at least an investigation. To sum up the book a little most of the facts he uncovered have been suppressed and the warnings about Able Danger were deliberately silenced. Get the book and read it and you will see why he is so emotional when he talks about that day. The 25 years post 9-11 leads me to ask myself if the nightmare that day was has ever ended. It was a monumental event of epic proportions and similar in historic significance to the fall of Singapore because it spelled the end of a world order and the beginning of what we have come to call the new world order. This July 4th marked the 250th anniversary of the Founding of America which collides head on with the anniversary of 9-11 because that event locked the Bill of Rights in a closet and burned the house down. In fact, we have been in a continuous state of emergency since then and there is always some foreign power that is just about to do us in. You might not know this but until Vietnam America had never fought a war longer than four years, but now they all seem to last forever and cost trillions. Whatever happened on 9-11 and whoever in government knew about it in advance has not been completely proven because there has been no real public investigation. One thing we do know with absolute certainty is that the government which was led at the time by George W. Bush, used the climate of fear generated by the attacks to expand its powers over the American people. The Department of Homeland Security, a German sounding name, combined all the nations intelligence agencies under one director and also created new ones. America was formed, Mr. Jefferson told us, so that we and our posterity would only be governed with the consent of the governed. There would be no king to rule over America whose very words were law, but now we have allowed such an expansion of executive powers that the Constitution is simply ignored in favor of Executive Orders. When those orders are overruled by some Federal Court there is always a higher court or the system just punts and tries in a different direction. Little by little in response to 9-11 or perhaps it was all just part of the plan the government started incrementally at first, then wholesale, to dismantle the fundamental protections enshrined in the Constitution that made America unique from every other country which had existed on this earth. So, for 25 years we have resurrected many of the powers over which our ancestors rebelled and adopted them right here in America all wrapped in the flag. We don't have peace, we don't have security, in fact we are told each day that some madman could start a nuclear war at any moment. We are told that right now as I speak AI systems are working on ways to create and launch global biowarfare by creating and releasing heretofore unknown viruses. Digging deeper into the AI threat, and I know that AI does some good things because my dear wife uses it often to solve problems while I remain committed to finding my own solutions through hard work and dogged determination. In investigating what AI can and can't do I have concluded that its real master, its real creator cannot be overridden. So, who or what is the real master, well, that's the question isn't it. Whoever the real master is in my opinion is the greatest enemy of humanity in the history of the world. Aside from AI, my opinion is that due to fear after 9-11 the U.S.A. Patriot Act drove the final nail through the heart of the Bill of Rights and then placed it in that burning house with all our other God given, government protected rights and that is the real legacy of 9-11. With each new administration the abuse of power gets worse as tyrants become bolder and bolder. Finally, folks, much of the abuse of power lies at the feet of the mass media which is supposed to be a watchdog but is instead a lapdog only yapping a little when someone challenges the prevailing power system. The security guarding the gates of our national morality has laid down arms and fled it seems but I pray that we can get it back. At least that's the way I see it. Until next time folks, This is Darrell Castle. Thanks for listening.

AP Washington correspondent Sagar Meghani reports President Trump has suffered a loss over mail voting before a federal appeals panel.

The updates just keep coming. On Sunday, the Trump administration returned to the Supreme Court to ask for more control over mail-in ballots, coming two days after U.S. District Judge Indira Talwani's order blocking the government from implementing parts of the new Postal Service rule. Mary and Andrew analyze the case's implications as states begin sending out their ballots ahead of the midterms before turning to another update: a preliminary injunction issued in the CASA Inc. v. Trump case on birthright citizenship. Then, the co-hosts turn to the ICE agent involved in the shooting of a Venezuelan man during Trump's “Operation Metro Surge” in Minneapolis, who is now being federally charged with making false statements to the FBI about the event. They call this “good news” — an instance of the federal government choosing to intervene in an “outrageous” case instead of leaving it up to the states' discretion. Plus, the Supreme Court allows the construction of Trump's White House ballroom to continue.A Note to Listeners: As the 2026 midterm elections heat up, MS NOW is headed to the Lone Star State.

The 442 and 100 Battalion were two of the most decorated combat regiments in World War II. Composed of Japanese Americans who had volunteered to serve on the front lines in Italy and France they were exemplary soldiers. Most of them had left behind families who had been interned/incarcerated under Executive Order 9066. Yet in the face of such trying circumstances and suspected by the US Government as potential sympathizers or collaborators they went off to serve honorably.

Thune Warns GOP Could Lose Senate, As Federal Judge Blocks Trump's New Executive Order Ending Birthright Citizenship… PLUS, Killer Mom Lindsay Clancy Receives Loads Of Fan Mail, Bartiromo Out At Fox & CIA Asset Steinem Dead At 92

In this mid-week special, you may have noticed a change in our introduction, that we're listing TFSR.Media as our website (a work in progress, currently pointed at our blog, soon to be pointed at our new web host). This is because we're moving our website from NoBlogs.org following the August 26, 2026 announcements by the US State Department and Department of Treasury that designated the hosts of NoBlogs, the Italian autonomous tech collective Autistici / Inventati as a Specially Designated Global Terrorist and placed it on the Specially Designated Nationals list under Executive Order 13224. In this conversation you'll hear a member of the crimethinc ex-workers collective and Sprout from Sabot Media talk about the designation, the intended impacts on anarchist, antifascist and other movements by the US government, and what can come next if we're up for the fight. I invite listeners to check out the statement from CrimethInc as well as the public letter still awaiting more signatures and articles available on the subject from sabot.media. There's also a recent chat by Outlaw podcast with Shayana Kadidal of the Center for Constitutional Rights on the legal elements of this chat, alongside a list of rad servers from Riseup that could be helpful for people looking for new web hosting homes for their projects.

A lot can happen in a week. Mary and Andrew begin with the most recent movement in the court battle against President Trump's three-tiered mail-in voting executive order. Last week, Judge Talwani issued a fresh injunction blocking one provision of the EO centered around the Postal Service, two days after the Supreme Court lifted a block from the same judge, saying the provisions in the EO could not be applied to November's midterms. The co-hosts affirm that this fight is far from over before moving to two more updates from cases they talked about last week: a motion brought by Mary's ICAP team alongside others challenging the 2026 birthright citizenship EO and a decision on Minnesota's effort to extradite an ICE agent from Texas, after he was charged with shooting Julio Sosa-Celis through the door of a Minnesota home. Next, a win for Anthropic after a federal judge ruled against the Pentagon, saying it acted illegally in labeling the AI company a “supply chain risk.” Plus: a moving video from an active-duty Marine Colonel pleading for an Afghan national to return to the US after he was deported- despite his asylum status after his family helped the US military in Afghanistan. A video edition of this episode is available on YouTube now. Further Watching: Here is the full video that Andrew mentioned about Khalil from Active-duty Marine Colonel Zach Schmidt, via Ryan Goodman's Bluesky post: https://bsky.app/profile/rgoodlaw.bsky.social/post/3muagjmc35k23 A Note to Listeners: As the 2026 midterm elections heat up, MS NOW is headed to the Lone Star State.

Drew's book link: https://www.amazon.com/Preparing-Surv...Fortitude Ranch (Survival Community) website https://fortituderanch.com/about-2/Colonel Drew Miller (USAF, Ret.) is an honor graduate of the U.S. Air Force Academy with a Master's and PhD in Public Policy and Operations Research from Harvard University. He served as an Intelligence Officer, then Plans and Programs Officer in the Air Force, a Research Staff Member at the Institute for Defense Analyses, and in the Department of Defense Senior Executive Service.  He is the President of the Collapse Survival Institute and CEO of Fortitude Ranch, the largest survival-community network in the United States, and the author of Preparing to Survive in the Age of Collapse:  Political, Military, Foreign Policy, and Preparedness Reforms Vital for Our Survival.Drew's goal is to warn Americans that government is not providing honest warnings of the high and rapidly increasing risk of collapse disasters like an H5N1 pandemic, loss of the electric grid, AI being used to help bad people develop new Weapons of Mass Destruction, and super-intelligent AGI soon likely to start exterminating pesky humans according to top experts.  Government is killing Americans now with bad, often unconstitutional programs, protecting only top government/elected officials in a collapse, with Executive Orders authorizing government agencies to seize food and resources from private citizens in a collapse.Major changes in public policies, foreign and military policies, and preparedness are vital now if we are to survive in the Age of Collapse.#news #politics #politicsnews #survival #survivalskills #war #ai #pandemic

According to Mary and Andrew, recent moves by President Trump's administration have been following a pattern: “If at first you don't succeed, try try again.” The co-hosts begin by breaking down the flurry of news surrounding mail voting, starting with Monday afternoon's decision by the Supreme Court to allow President Trump's executive order curtailing mail voting to proceed, though not issuing a decision on the merits of the order. They discuss that decision in conjunction with the Postal Service's announcement on Friday for a final rule that would comply with the executive order, a move that Andrew calls a proxy for the government to “have the Postal Service act in a way that has a clearly disproportionate impact on certain voters.” Then, a conversation about birthright citizenship after a motion was filed yesterday rejecting Trump's executive orders that attempt to limit the legal principle. Plus, an analysis of the Second and Ninth Circuit Court's rulings disqualifying U.S. Attorneys that were improperly appointed by Trump and a quick nod to Minnesota suing the governor of Texas for not extraditing an ICE agent accused of shooting a man in Minneapolis.  Tune in next week as we switch to Wednesday morning releases — and video editions of Main Justice available on YouTube.
