Shelli-Ann McKenzie. Purpose of the Interview The interview focuses on advocating for healthcare professionals, addressing the challenges they face, and introducing Shelli-Ann McKenzie’s nonprofit organization, Help for Healthcare Professionals (HCPP). The goal is to highlight burnout, financial struggles, and systemic issues in healthcare while promoting programs that support mental wellness, financial literacy, and career development. Key Takeaways Healthcare Workforce Challenges Nurses and healthcare professionals face high stress, burnout, and long hours, leading to workforce shortages. Many professionals struggle financially—24% live in poverty. Lack of professors in nursing schools limits the number of students entering the profession. Understanding Nursing Roles Nursing includes multiple levels: Registered Nurse (RN): Associate or bachelor’s degree. Advanced Practice Nurses: Master’s level (e.g., Nurse Practitioner, Nurse Educator). Doctorate Level: Doctor of Nursing Practice (DNP) or PhD. Nurse practitioners often function as an extension of physicians, providing quality care. Respect and Recognition Nurses provide more direct care than any other health profession but often lack recognition. Advocacy is key to ensuring nurses can practice at the highest level and improve access to care. Why HCPP Was Founded Born out of COVID-19 crisis and Shelli-Ann’s personal experience with burnout. Mission: Provide mental health referrals, financial assistance (gift cards, gas), and professional development. Programs include: Financial literacy workshops Entrepreneurship training for healthcare professionals Scholarships and internships for aspiring professionals Youth Med Program Targets ages 13–20 to build a healthcare workforce pipeline. Offers hands-on training, CPR certification, exposure to neurosurgeons, and mentorship. Tuition-free and designed to scale nationally. Funding and Community Support HCPP is a nurse-owned nonprofit, funded by federal grants and donations. Annual event: Night of Grand and Gratitude—a charity awards dinner to raise funds for programs. Notable Quotes “No one else was coming to save us—so I created HCPP.” “24% of healthcare professionals live in poverty.” “If we don’t have enough professors, we cap nursing students—it’s cyclical.” “The most rewarding part of nursing is showing up for people in their most vulnerable moments.” “Every dollar we raise fuels education programs like Youth Med—strategic investment in the future of healthcare.” #SHMS #STRAW #BESTSupport the show: https://www.steveharveyfm.com/See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

This week on Sinica, in a joint episode with the China-Global South Podcast, I speak with Eric Olander, host of the China Global South Podcast and founder/editor-in-chief of the China-Global South Project. In the early hours of January 3rd, U.S. forces carried out a coordinated operation in Venezuela that resulted in the capture of President Nicolás Maduro and his wife, followed by their rendition to the United States to face drug trafficking charges. The operation unfolded quickly, with minimal kinetic escalation, but has raised far-reaching questions about international law, hemispheric security, and the Trump administration's willingness to use force in the Western Hemisphere. Just before the raid, China's Special Envoy for Latin America, Qiu Xiaoqi, had met with Maduro in Caracas. Commentary linking Trump's action to China has ranged widely—claims about spheres of influence, arguments this was all about oil or rare earths, and pronouncements about what this means for Taiwan. Eric helps us think through China's actual stake in Venezuela, how deeply Beijing understands Latin America, what this episode does and does not change about China's role in the region and the global South more broadly, China's immediate reaction and concrete exposure on the ground, how it manages political risk when partner regimes collapse, and what Chinese military planners may be studying as they assess how this operation unfolded.5:18 – How Beijing is reading this episode: official messaging versus elite thinking 7:40 – The Taiwan comparisons on Chinese social media and why they don't work 11:09 – How deep is China's actual expertise on Latin America? 14:56 – Comparing U.S. and Chinese benches of Latin America expertise 18:02 – Are we back to spheres of influence? Why that framing doesn't work 20:09 – Where is China most exposed in Venezuela: oil, loans, personnel? 23:41 – The resource-for-infrastructure model and why it failed 28:27 – The political assets: China as defender of sovereignty and multilateralism 36:25 – Will this push left-leaning governments closer to Beijing? 40:07 – The "China impotence" narrative and what doing something would actually mean 46:26 – What Chinese military planners are actually studying 51:46 – The Qiu Xiaoqi meeting: strategic failure or intelligence delivery? 58:40 – What actually changes and what doesn't: looking aheadPaying it forward: Alonso Illueca, nonresident fellow for Latin America and the Caribbean at the China Global South ProjectRecommendations: Eric: "China's Long Economic War" by Zongyuan Zoe Liu (Foreign Affairs)Kaiser: The Venetian Heretic by Christian CameronSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
SUMMARY In this engaging conversation, Andrew Adams and Sensei Ando explore the multifaceted world of martial arts, emphasizing the importance of continuous learning, the challenges faced by students, and the role of instructors in guiding their students. They discuss the significance of tailoring techniques to individual needs, the misconceptions surrounding the best martial arts, and the impact of music in training environments. The dialogue culminates in a reflection on the responsibilities of teachers to provide meaningful experiences that prepare students for real-life situations. TAKEAWAYS Continuous learning is essential in martial arts. The 'Wednesday Wall' is a common challenge for students. Techniques should be tailored to individual students' needs. Not every technique works for every person. Martial arts is not just about showing up; practice is crucial. Music can distract from the focus needed in training. Defining martial arts can vary based on personal experiences. Teachers should guide students towards deeper understanding. Exposure to real experiences is vital for student growth. The goal is to provide as much value as possible in training. Join our EXCLUSIVE newsletter to get notified of each episode as it comes out! Subscribe — whistlekick Martial Arts Radio
Your circadian rhythm controls vital organ functions, including how your liver processes nutrients and filters toxins. Exposure to artificial blue light disrupts this rhythm, triggering a chain reaction that destabilizes liver health German researchers found that long-term artificial light exposure alters liver gene expression and melatonin production, contributing to the development and progression of fatty liver disease over time An earlier controlled animal study showed that constant light combined with a high-fat diet led to more weight gain, insulin resistance, and gut-derived liver inflammation than the same diet under normal lighting The circadian disruption caused by artificial light doesn't just affect the liver; it's linked to obesity, Type 2 diabetes, cardiovascular disease, hormone-driven cancers, and higher rates of depression and anxiety Simple steps like dimming household lights after sunset, wearing blue-blocking glasses in the evening, and limiting screen time at night can help realign your circadian rhythm and protect your liver
An animal study found that the smell of fatty foods during pregnancy and breastfeeding, even without eating them, can alter a child's brain development and make them more prone to obesity later in life Mice exposed to bacon-scented diets in the womb and through milk developed insulin resistance and gained more weight in adulthood, despite eating the same healthy diets as control mice The scent exposure rewired appetite and reward pathways in the brain, particularly affecting dopamine and AgRP neurons responsible for hunger regulation Researchers found 155 distinct odor molecules from fatty foods entering amniotic fluid and breast milk, directly shaping the offspring's sensory environment You can reduce your child's future risk of weight gain by managing food smells in your home, reducing inflammation, avoiding processed seed oils, and retraining your sense of smell with natural scents
In this episode of the Evolving Wellness Podcast, host Sarah Kleiner discusses the complexities of sleep and insomnia with sleep expert Molly Eastman. They explore the difficulties of maintaining sleep amidst life's stressors such as toddler care, shift work, and major life changes. Molly sheds light on the paradoxical relationship with sleep, particularly focusing on insomnia, and shares insights into cognitive behavioral therapy for insomnia (CBTI) and acceptance commitment therapy (ACT) for insomnia. They discuss the impact of stress and thoughts on sleep quality, the importance of circadian rhythm and environmental factors, and ways to build a robust sleep skillset. The episode also covers the risks and considerations of sleep medications, the new findings in sleep science, and practical tips to reduce sleep anxiety. Sarah and Molly emphasize a balanced approach and provide resources for further support.About Sleep is a Skill: Sleep Is a Skill is dedicated to helping people optimize sleep by treating it as a learnable, trainable skill—not a mystery or something left to chance. Founded by Mollie Eastman, the company combines science-backed sleep optimization, wearable data, lifestyle design, and personalized coaching to help individuals improve sleep quality, recovery, and overall performance. Their mission is to empower people to take control of their sleep so they can think clearer, feel better, and perform at their highest level—using practical tools, education, and measurable results rather than guessworkConnect with Mollie:www.sleepisaskill.comwww.instagram.com/mollie.eastman_________Sponsored By:→ Bon Charge | Go to https://boncharge.com/products/demi-red-light-device?rfsn=8108115.26608d & use code SARAHKLEINER for 15% off storewide.→ VivaRays | This episode is sponsored by VivaRays - VivaRays Blue - code YOGI https://vivarays.com/yogi_________Timestamp:00:00 Navigating Life's Sleep Disruptions01:37 Introduction to the Evolving Wellness Podcast05:17 Meet Molly Eastman: Sleep Expert06:39 Personal Sleep Struggles and Solutions09:50 Understanding Insomnia and Sleep Anxiety10:35 Cognitive Behavioral Therapy for Insomnia (CBTI)15:39 Acceptance Commitment Therapy for Insomnia (ACTI)18:56 The Role of Red and Infrared Light in Sleep22:31 The Impact of Sleep Aids and Medications30:56 The Evolution of Sleep Studies31:42 Glymphatic System and Brain Cleansing32:43 Modern Lifestyle's Impact on Sleep33:06 Circadian Rhythm Entrainment34:24 Chronopharmacology and Sleep Medications37:17 Blue Blockers and Circadian Rhythm38:44 Challenges in Medical and Functional Medicine41:37 The Importance of Nuance in Sleep Health42:40 Building the Skillset of Sleep50:18 High Performers and Sleep Optimization56:47 Conclusion and Resources——— This video is not medical advice & as a supporter to you and your health journey - I encourage you to monitor your labs and work with a professional!________________________________________Get all my free guides and product recommendations to get started on your journey!https://www.sarahkleinerwellness.com/all-free-resourcesCheck out all my courses to understand how to improve your mitochondrial health & experience long lasting health!

In this explosive deep dive, Tara exposes the staggering scope of government fraud hiding in plain sight — starting with $19 BILLION in daycare fraud alone. From Minnesota to California, federally funded “childcare centers” exist only on paper: boarded-up buildings, barred doors, zero children — yet tens of millions flowing in taxpayer money. Tara breaks down how Biden-era rule changes weakened oversight, how fraud metastasized nationwide, and why panic has set in among Democrat officials as investigators finally move in. This episode connects the dots between mass migration, job shortfalls, welfare dependency, and systemic fraud — and explains why independent journalism on X shattered a media blockade that once made all of this untouchable.

This year won't change just because the calendar did. If nothing shifts internally, this season will look exactly like the last one, same stress, same patterns, same outcomes. Not because you're cursed… but because you're carrying what was never cleaned. In this message, Eric breaks down why a new year isn't automatic and why preparation, not intention, determines whether this season becomes your best or your hardest. Drawing from Exodus 19, he unpacks the idea of washing your own clothes—identifying the internal contamination, habits, and responses that quietly sabotage progress. This isn't about starting over. It's about stopping the transfer of last year's weight into this season. If you're ready for real change, not just motivation, this message is for you. Key themes: • Why “another year” and a “new year” are not the same • How unresolved habits contaminate finances, relationships, and peace • What it actually means to reset before you rebuild • Why some cycles require more than a quick fix
There was an explosion, a record spike – and it's not even close - in lending by European banks to European shadow banks in October and November. This spike in European bank lending wasn't some newfound enthusiasm to take on risks. It was emergency lending, a shadow bank shadow bailout which was every bit the other side of the US$ repo tightness I've been telling you about. This surge in shadow bank borrowing in euros shows how widespread and global funding pressure has already been.

The Constitution Study with Host Paul Engel – Delay the exposure of malfeasance long enough, and someone will claim it doesn't matter because it's old. Like the claims that FBI and DOJ leadership kept obstructing investigations into then-Secretary of State Hillary Clinton and her Clinton Foundation. Now, almost ten years later, does anyone expect a fair investigation?
Show NotesMusic placement has quietly become one of the most powerful engines shaping how audiences discover new artists. In this episode of Music Evolves, host Sean Martin speaks with Chris SD, music producer and founder focused on connecting independent songwriters with film, television, and media opportunities, about how music moves from personal creation into shared cultural moments.The conversation centers on sync licensing not as a shortcut, but as a parallel creative economy. Chris SD explains that music supervisors, the professionals responsible for sourcing music for screen, are not looking for imitation or trend chasing. They are listening for authenticity. Songs that already exist, written without a brief or a pitch in mind, often resonate more deeply because they carry emotional truth rather than calculated intent.Why Indie Music Wins Screen TimeIndependent artists play a critical role in modern film and television. Budget realities often make major label catalogs impractical, while independent creators offer flexibility, ownership clarity, and creative alignment. This shifts the opportunity structure. Artists who control their masters and publishing are easier to work with and faster to license, which matters in production schedules driven by speed.Exposure matters as much as payment. A single placement can introduce an artist to millions of viewers in a context that builds emotional association rather than passive listening. That connection often leads to discovery, touring opportunities, and long-term audience growth.Technology as a Tool, Not the AuthorThe episode also addresses the growing conversation around AI in music creation. Chris SD draws a clear distinction between technology as a production aid and technology as a replacement for human authorship. Current legal frameworks and copyright realities prevent fully AI-generated music from being licensed for film and television. More importantly, the emotional nuance required for storytelling still depends on human experience.The message is consistent throughout the discussion. Music that endures is not built on novelty or automation alone. It survives because it reflects something real. Sync licensing rewards that honesty rather than undermines it.For artists navigating visibility, rights, and sustainability, this conversation reframes placement not as selling out, but as participation in a larger storytelling ecosystem.GuestChris SD, Musician, Producer, and Founder of Sync Songwriter | On LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/chris-sd/HostSean Martin, Co-Founder at ITSPmagazine, Studio C60, and Host of Redefining CyberSecurity Podcast & Music Evolves Podcast | Website: https://www.seanmartin.com/ResourcesAttend The Sync Songwriter Music Supervisor Panel: coming soon...More From Sean MartinMore from Music Evolves: https://www.seanmartin.com/music-evolves-podcastMusic Evolves on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLnYu0psdcllTRJ5du7hFDXjiugu-uNPtWMusic Evolves: Sonic Frontiers Newsletter | https://www.linkedin.com/newsletters/7290890771828719616/Line of Sight Newsletter | https://www.linkedin.com/newsletters/7400591548452667392/ITSPmagazine YouTube Channel: https://www.youtube.com/@itspmagazineBe sure to share and subscribe!Keywordssean martin, chris sd, sync, licensing, music, film, television, independent, supervisors, creativity, art, artist, musician, music evolves, music podcast, music and technology podcast Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

The Constitution Study with Host Paul Engel – Delay the exposure of malfeasance long enough, and someone will claim it doesn't matter because it's old. Like the claims that FBI and DOJ leadership kept obstructing investigations into then-Secretary of State Hillary Clinton and her Clinton Foundation. Now, almost ten years later, does anyone expect a fair investigation?
On this New Year edition of Badlands Daily, CannCon is joined by Chris Paul for a wide-ranging discussion that opens with reflections on entering 2026 and quickly moves into the expanding exposure of government fraud tied to daycare, assisted living, and healthcare programs. The hosts walk through on-the-ground reporting, viral clips, press conferences, and official responses, examining how fraud has been allowed to persist for decades while accountability is continually deflected away from those controlling the purse strings. From there, the conversation broadens into media credibility, narrative management, and the role of psychological operations, including critiques of mainstream coverage, selective outrage, and shifting “trusted voices.” CannCon and Chris Paul also explore free speech challenges, lawfare, election-related narratives, and the dangers of outsourcing belief to screens rather than first principles. Throughout the episode, they emphasize discernment, skepticism, and personal responsibility when consuming information, closing with reflections on community, upcoming programming, and what it means to stay grounded as the year unfolds.
We're being blatantly pushed towards manipulated perception and controlled actions. Systemic problems cannot be fixed by a narrowing focus on isolated groups. It's about responsibility, not getting credit. Self focus is the later result of living in the shadows. Enduring the human experience is cathartic. The control release part is hard. Dissonance begins now. Actual audits and documented info didn't work. It took a You Tuber operation to make this an issue. Think controlled exposure. Delayed outrage signals operators. Exposure is managed. Egregious fraud exists in all states. It was well documented in the first Trump term. Why just hold Walz accountable? Infiltrators are everywhere and participants are scattered. Structures survive in a controlled burn. Narrative downgrades fed by a media that hates truth. People are waiting for someone else to fix this. Gov. Bergam saw the audit results and then made them illegal. Covid shows how truth is ignored. Elder care is the next flaming fraud factory. Cuomo killed so many. Nigeria as a crypto and money laundering center. Estonia is where digital keys are broken. Quantum hybrid AI already exists. Sensationalism makes people comfortable. Real action is just the opposite. And timing is everything.
In this special coaching sit-down, I hit pause on tactics and deals and go deep into the mental game of real estate investing—the part that actually determines whether you ever hit your income goals, leave your W-2, or build the life you keep saying you want.  I walk our community through practical mindset work: scripting your perfect day and perfect year, shifting from reaction to creation, removing distractions, and getting brutally honest about where you are vs. where you say you want to be. We talk about vision, exposure, coaching, accountability, and belief, and I share personal stories from rebuilding after 2008 to helping my son Nick rewire his thinking after his accident to show you exactly how this work looks in real life.  You'll hear live questions from our group about negative self-talk, self-sabotage, overwhelm, and balance while juggling a W-2, and we break those down into clear, simple action steps you can implement this week.

What do you do when you see a leader, a parent, or a spiritual covering in a moment of weakness? In this prophetic teaching, Dr. Delisa Rodgers unpacks the sobering revelation behind Noah's nakedness and the son who chose exposure over honor. This is not a story about sin alone. It is a story about discernment, restraint, and the spiritual consequences of how we handle vulnerability. This episode reveals why Ham exposed Noah, what was really operating beneath his actions, and why dishonor produces generational fallout. You will learn the difference between access and assignment, revelation and rebellion, and why some people are trusted to cover while others are exposed for exposing. This episode is a warning and a wisdom key for leaders, sons, daughters, and anyone navigating proximity to an anointed life. If you have ever struggled with how to respond when you see flaws in people God is using, this teaching will reset your understanding of covering, honor, and spiritual responsibility.

Hey Guys, You know that moment when you walk through your house and think, "I need to do something about this" — and then life pulls you in another direction? This episode is about why that happens, especially for women who spend their lives taking care of everyone else — and how to finally stop the cycle without shame, pressure, or burnout. When your nervous system is taxed from doing, managing, and holding everything together, your home often becomes the last thing you tend to. And then the guilt sets in. But clutter isn't a personal failure — it's a physiological response to overload. The 4-Step Reset You'll Practice When you notice stress or shame rising around clutter: 1. Label the feeling – Name what's actually happening in your body 2. Somatic anchoring – Place your hands on your body to signal safety 3. Exposure + acceptance – Stay present instead of avoiding 4. Self-compassion – Acknowledge that you were doing the best you could This is how change starts — without forcing yourself to "do more." Important Reminder You can start with your nervous system. You can start with your home. Either way, you're moving toward regulation and order — as long as you're not doing it from pressure, shame, or control. Regulate your nervous system, take action, and your identity shifts as a result. ⸻ Want Support Doing This Consistently? The year-long program is open.

In this episode, I sit down with metabolic expert Angelo Poli to break down why so many athletes and cyclists get stuck trying to lose the last few kilos despite doing “everything right.” We dive into metabolic adaptation, why eating less eventually stops working, and how your body actively slows weight loss to keep you alive. Angelo explains why calories aren't linear, why crash dieting backfires, and how eating more at the right time can actually help you get leaner and perform better. If you've been stuck in a weight-loss plateau, struggling with rebound weight gain, or afraid that fueling properly will make you heavier, this conversation will completely change how you think about metabolism.We've just started to build something really cool.

For the past several years Germany has been deconstructing their fossil fuel energy production and replacing it with far more expensive alternatives. This has led to large increases in overall energy prices, and downstream increases in manufacturing costs. The consequences have been snowballing throughout 2025, while cheap competitive alternatives coming into the EU from China have compounded their problem. Recently a survey of major industries was conducted in Germany to determine the forecast for 2026, the results are not good. Approximately half of the industrial sectors in Germany are anticipating job losses, cuts or layoffs this year. 22 out of 46 business associations are preparing to downsize their labor force. Only 9 of the 46 are expected to increase hiring. Job losses are expected in auto manufacturing, the textile sector, wood and paper fabrication. Job gains are expected in aerospace, shipbuilding and defense production – i.e. the war machinery. When the largest and most developed industrial economy in Europe is pinning its economic survival on war machinery, a particular momentum is created. It is never a good outcome for Europe when Germany becomes reliant on war to maintain employment.

He took over the tradition from bassist William “Keter” Betts and maintained it for nearly two decades. This year marked an abrupt departure from that longstanding commitment. “When I saw the name change on the Kennedy Center website and then hours later on the building, I chose to cancel our concert,” Redd told The Associated Press.

This pledge represents a fraction of historical U.S. contributions, which have reached up to $17 billion in recent years, with voluntary funding often in the $8-10 billion range. Administration officials describe the amount as sufficient to keep America as the world's top humanitarian donor while demanding greater efficiency from UN agencies. The funding will flow through an umbrella mechanism controlled by the UN's Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs (OCHA), allowing targeted distribution to specific crises and countries. Initial priorities include 17 nations such as Bangladesh, Congo, Haiti, Syria, and Ukraine. Notably absent from the list are Afghanistan and the Palestinian territories, with officials stating Gaza aid will tie into ongoing peace efforts. Source: discernreport.com War/Peace Did US Land Strikes On Venezuela Begin Last Week & No One Knew It? President Trump on Friday in a radio interview disclosed something which missed the attention of the US and global media. He let slip that a large land site had been knocked out by a strike from US forces in the Caribbean – however without specifying which country was hit (whether Venezuela or perhaps Colombia). o According to the full remarks in context, the president said: “But every time I knock out a boat, we save 25,000 American lives. It’s very simple. And what’s happening is they’re having a hard time employment-wise, they can’t get anybody. And we just talked out, I don’t know if you read or you saw, they [Venezuela] have a big plant or a big facility where the ships come from. Two nights ago, we knocked that out. So we hit them very hard. But drugs are down over 97 percent. Can you believe it?” Some unnamed American officials suggested to the New York Times that the Commander-in-Chief was referring to a drug facility in Venezuela: Trump did not name the location of the facility, though American officials told the New York Times that the president was referring to a drug facility in Venezuela that was eliminated. The president's comment is the only report of such an attack. No other Latin American government, including Venezuela, has disclosed a strike of this sort. : Source: zerohedge.com Zelensky Wants 50-Year(!) Security Guarantee From Trump A major point of disagreement remains security guarantees. Ukraine has been pushing maximalist demands for something akin to NATO Article 5 protections. It would be like getting all the benefits of being in NATO but without being a formal member of the Western military alliance. The Ukrainian side has revealed that President Trump had offered security guarantees for 15 years following a peaceful settlement, but Zelensky considered this much too short to protect from future potential Russian aggression. But in classic Zelensky fashion, he wants way more than this. Also, maximalist demands are something that European leaders have backed him on all along – and they may have even put him up to. According to The Wall Street Journal: Kyiv had asked for security guarantees to last up to 50 years after the end of the conflict during weekend discussions. In the documents currently being discussed, the U.S. offered a 15-year guarantee with the possibility of extension, Zelensky said in audio messages to journalists on Monday.

This year he focused on the country's youngest children and their families' need for high-quality child care.” The Obama administration was a gigantic money laundering operation. “The President explained the need in last Tuesday's address stating, “In today's economy, when having both parents in the workforce is an economic necessity for many families, we need affordable, high quality childcare more than ever.” “But the child care tax credit isn't all the President proposed.” “He would also significantly expand the Child Care and Development Fund(CCDF), a child care subsidy for low- and moderate-income families authorized under the Child Care Block Development Grant (CCDBG) Act. (CCDBG was reauthorized last year after 18 years.) By 2025, the proposed expansion would increase the reach of CCDF to an additional one million children, under four-years-old.” Taxpayers subsidies and grants for “childcare.” “The last part of the President's proposal, in typical Obama Administration-style, is a competitive grant that would promote innovation in the child care system. The proposed grants– totaling $100 million– would allow states to create pilot programs to determine the best ways to provide child care to vulnerable populations, including children with disabilities, parents who work non-traditional hours, and families who have difficulty finding high-quality child care.” https://newamerica.org/education-policy/edcentral/presidents-child-care-plan/ Taxpayers “grants” totaling $100 million (for starters) to be given to “vulnerable populations.” Can you say “Somali?” Taxpayers funding of “childcare,” was a “necessity” for the funding of the democrat party. The Somali community was always a hub of this “childcare” theft of taxpayers money. It was set up this way on purpose. A Somali community, governed by Somali's and protected by the democrat party. The Somali's were being brought into this country starting with the George W. Bush's presidency. But Obama began accelerating the number of refugees from Somalia along with other Muslim countries. Here's just the last year under Obama. “A total of 38,901 Muslim refugees entered the U.S. in fiscal year 2016, making up almost half (46%) of the nearly 85,000 refugees who entered the country in that period, according to a Pew Research Center analysis of data from the State Department's Refugee Processing Center. That means the U.S. has admitted the highest number of Muslim refugees of any year since data on self-reported religious affiliations first became publicly available in 2002.” “Just two countries – Syria (12,486) and Somalia (9,012) – were the source of more than half of fiscal 2016's Muslim refugees. The rest are from Iraq (7,853), Burma (Myanmar) (3,145), Afghanistan (2,664) and other countries (3,741).” https://pewresearch.org/short-reads/2016/10/05/u-s-admits-record-number-of-muslim-refugees-in-2016/ Obama was an installed puppet of Prince Alwaleed and was doing his bidding. Obama filled his administration with people tied to the Muslim Brotherhood, who were implementing their “civilization jihad.” These communities began electing corrupt representatives like Ilhan Omar. Infiltration not invasion. Taxpayers money was funneled into these communities through “childcare grants” and other “welfare programs,” in order to fund the democrat party. Minnesota is just the “doorway” into a much larger nationwide fraud scheme to fund the democrat party. A magnifying glass is about to be put on ALL state welfare programs that are receiving “federal funding.” These grants and benefits handed out to these crooks, are now the doorway to expose and bring them all to an end.

They must think that every day Americans have the same >IQ as Somali citizens.

Specific cases vary by act. ‘Ten-year stain:' Bondi asks prosecutors to probe Obama-Biden lawfare as criminal conspiracy FBI Director Kash Patel penned a memo predicating an investigation looking at the weaponization of intelligence and law-enforcement powers dating to the Russia collusion case as an ongoing conspiracy. Attorney General Pam Bondi asked the prosecutors to investigate the Obama-Biden era of lawfare as an ongoing election-meddling conspiracy that protected Democrats from criminal investigation and infringed the civil rights of Republicans like President Donald Trump and his supporters. An “ongoing conspiracy” and the statute of limitations Such an approach allows prosecutors to charge defendants with alleged crimes outside the statute of limitations because they were connected to an ongoing conspiracy, much like those cases brought against the mafia and drug cartels. “At my direction, our U.S. Attorneys and federal agents are actively investigating instances of government weaponization nationwide,” Bondi said. “This is a ten-year stain on the country committed by high-ranking officials against the American people.

They opposed the One Big Beautiful Bill because it funds ICE/US MIL, and they know Trump is going to invoke the Insurrection Act to deploy troops to their cities to assist ICE in deporting the illegals. If the Dems can't cheat in elections, they lose access to our tax dollars, and thus they lose all their power. They never cared about diversity, equality, equity, inclusion, immigration or any of that shit. It was all just a transaction. Everything they say and do is just a means to justify their treasonous scheme to steal our tax dollars. That's why it's so important to nuke the filibuster, pass the Save Act, invoke the Insurrection Act, deport all the illegals, and arrest everyone involved. If we don't, the Dems will take complete control, we will become a one-party State, and they will eventually phase us out via mass immigration. That's why the Dems have been trying to destroy, obstruct, and kill Trump, ever since he came down the escalator. Because they knew that he knew about all this, and is on a mission to stop it. The American People are being replaced, and the Democrats are directly responsible for it. This is the battle for the Republic.

A newly unsealed document tied to the Jeffrey Epstein case revealed that federal investigators once compiled a far broader roadmap for potential prosecutions than the public had previously been led to believe. The document lays out a sweeping list of individuals identified as possible co-conspirators or facilitators, reflecting prosecutors' internal view that Epstein's crimes operated as a network rather than the actions of a lone predator. According to the filing, investigators examined roles ranging from recruitment and transportation of minors to financial management, scheduling, housing, and legal shielding. The scope of the list underscores that authorities were, at least at one stage, actively considering charges against multiple actors who allegedly enabled or benefited from Epstein's abuse. Its unsealing directly contradicts years of official rhetoric that minimized the breadth of criminal exposure beyond Epstein himself.The most damning aspect of the unsealed document is not merely who appears on the list, but what it exposes about prosecutorial intent quietly evaporating behind closed doors. This wasn't a case where investigators lacked imagination or awareness; the file shows they understood the architecture of Epstein's operation and mapped out how it functioned as a criminal enterprise with interchangeable parts. Yet instead of dismantling that structure, the system narrowed its focus until Epstein became both the beginning and the end of the story. Names were flagged, conduct was outlined, and potential charges were sketched—then the trail simply stops. The silence that follows reads less like oversight and more like retreat, leaving behind a record that suggests justice was not defeated by ignorance, but abandoned by choice.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:Newly unearthed Epstein documents reveal long list of potential SDNY prosecutions in wake of pedo's death | New York Post
In this episode, I sit down with neuroscientist Dr. Tommy Wood to explore how brain health, focus, attention, and recovery directly affect cycling performance. We break down why most athletes are physically well-trained but mentally overworked, how constant stimulation and distraction lead to cognitive overtraining, and why your brain needs recovery just as much as your legs. We also discuss practical ways cyclists can train their brain, build focus, improve decision-making under fatigue, and protect attention in a world full of distractions. If you're training hard but still feel mentally flat or inconsistent on the bike, this conversation might explain why.We've just started to build something really cool.

This episode is a discussion on the rising topic of iPad usage among kids with guests, Eric Liu and Nis Frome. The conversation explores the advantages of educational tools and tech literacy while discussing the downsides, like excessive screen time and dependency on digital devices. The discussion ranges from personal parenting experiences with technology to broader implications on children's development, focusing on how parents can strike a balance between tech exposure and healthy, active lifestyles. The guests also reflect on the importance of moderation and mindful screen use in today's tech-saturated world. About Our Guests: Nis Frome is a seasoned entrepreneur and angel investor renowned for his expertise in building and advising groundbreaking ventures. He co-founded Feedback Loop, acquired by DISQO, and has contributed to successful projects like Coderbyte, Session Rewind, and JOON. Nis has also invested in innovative startups such as DEN, Beam, Realm, and Reflex. Eric Liu is a dynamic entrepreneur, investor, and thought leader with deep insights into the evolving landscape of business and personal development. With a keen interest in the intersection of technology, innovation, and human behavior, Eric brings a unique and valuable perspective to every conversation. Thanks for watching! Takeaways: iPads can be educational tools but also serve as digital babysitters. Excessive screen time can negatively impact children's attention spans. Moderation is key when introducing technology to children. Exposure to technology is inevitable; teaching moderation is essential. Different activities on iPads can have varying impacts on children. Parents should evaluate the purpose of screen time for their kids. Creating a balanced environment with alternatives to screens is important. Tech literacy is important, but it can be developed without early exposure to iPads. The conversation around technology and children is nuanced and requires careful consideration. Ultimately, parenting decisions should be based on individual family dynamics and values.

Today's guest is Kevin Secours. Kevin is a veteran martial arts coach, author, and former security professional with decades of experience across Japanese Jiu-Jitsu, Karate, and Russian Systema. Holding five black belts (including an 8th-dan), Kevin has worked extensively in real-world contexts while also teaching meditation, solo training, and strength rituals. He is the author of Rituals of Strength and Unconstrained, and is known for blending martial tradition, modern training theory, psychology, and philosophical inquiry into human development and resilience The conditioning and tempering of the body in striking sports can draw interesting parallels to collisions needed in jumping, sprinting and landing activities. We can also draw many lessons and ideas from the exercise tradition that goes back centuries with martial arts practice. By understanding combat training disciplines, we can draw out universal application for general movement and performance. In this episode, we explore the deeper purpose of physical training through martial arts and sport performance. Kevin reflects on early experiences with body hardening, cold exposure, and Zen-influenced practice, examining where such methods build resilience and where they become self-destructive. Drawing parallels to sprinting, jumping, and strength training, we discuss collisions, long isometric holds, ritualized discomfort, and fatigue as tools for cultivating awareness, reducing excess tension, and supporting longevity.

Training should serve health and preparedness, not destroy the body you are trying to protect. Exposure must be progressive and intentional, not reckless. Body tension, trauma, and reading the athlete Chronic tension often reflects psychological history, not just physical limitations. Coaches should first understand an athlete's motive for training. Creating a safe and inclusive environment allows tension to unwind. Exhaustion can reveal new movement options and reduce overthinking. Isometrics, Soviet methods, and slow strength Long isometric holds build physical strength and mental resilience. Slow strength exposes weak links that fast movement can hide. Discomfort creates space for reflection and adaptability. Training methods were shaped by harsher living conditions and necessity. Journaling, drawing, and learning through reflection Writing and sketching reinforce learning more deeply than words alone. Stick figures and simple drawings improve memory and understanding. Documentation is a form of legacy and long term learning. Mindset, adaptability, and mental speed Adaptability in movement reflects adaptability in thinking. Exposure to opposing viewpoints builds cognitive flexibility. Speed is as much mental as it is physical. Ego and rigid beliefs limit learning and performance. Representativeness, ritual, and resilience Not all training must look like competition to have value. Ritual builds consistency and meaning in training. Resilience is a universal quality that transfers across contexts. Training should include experiences where the athlete loses and adapts. Simplify versus deconstruct in training Simplify first to preserve the integrity of the whole movement. Deconstruct only when specific limitations appear. Always return to full movement patterns after isolation. End sessions with success to reinforce confidence. Microdosing discomfort and daily resilience Small daily challenges build long term mental toughness. Discomfort activates the neural centers tied to willpower. Ritualized discomfort is more effective than occasional extremes. Resilience can be trained deliberately and safely. Comfort seeking and modern training challenges Humans naturally seek comfort when it is available. Modern environments require intentional exposure to challenge. Training should balance safety, stress, and adaptability. Long term growth comes from controlled adversity, not avoidance. Quotes from Kevin Secours “Motive matters more than method. The why has to be bigger than the how.” “Repetition does not make perfect. You can be perfectly bad at something.” “Every technique is like a snowflake. No two are the same.” “Resilience is the most universal commodity you have.” “The greatest relaxation comes from exhaustion.” “Training should not be trauma.” “If you quit midway, you are more likely to come back.” “We are comfort seekers.” About Kevin Secours Kevin Secours is a martial arts coach and author focused on practical skill development, resilience, and real-world application of movement and combat principles. Drawing from decades of training and coaching experience, his work bridges traditional martial arts, modern performance thinking, and personal development. Kevin is known for clear teaching, depth of insight, and an emphasis on adaptability, awareness, and lifelong practice.
In this special year-end episode, StartUp Health Co-founder Unity Stoakes has an intimate chat with Esther Dyson – investor, thinker, and StartUp Health Impact Board member – about her upcoming book on term limits, the dangers of abundance, and how to protect our humanity in a world of superintelligent tools. Esther draws on decades in tech, health, and philanthropy to ask uncomfortable questions about power, valuation, and why “too much” rarely serves us. Along the way, she shares stories from Wellville, her unconventional life adventures, and the teachers and caregivers who shaped her more than any Nobel Prize winner. In this wide ranging conversation, they dig into: Why human finitude and term limits can be a source of comfort, not fear How ultra-processed food, content, and money distort our “fitness functions” What the current AI bubble reveals about power, inequality, and attention Why AI should augment doctors, and why nurses and caregivers are irreplaceable How to think about education, theory of mind, and “theory of business mind” Esther's practical career advice: always make new mistakes, and never do work you would not do for free This is a must listen for founders, investors, and curious humans who want to navigate the age of superintelligence with more wisdom, more agency, and a clearer sense of “enough.” Join us at Apollo House at JPM Healthcare Week in January to continue the conversation.

Ever notice how you can be chatting effortlessly, then the moment a new person shows up, you freeze and your brain goes blank? In this episode, Dr. K breaks down why some conversations feel smooth and others suddenly become hard, especially when you feel judged, intimidated, or you want to make a good impression.
