[Non-Paywall Source and Media Spin] President Trump has been cutting waste, fraud and abuse in runaway government spending; slashing costly regulations across all sectors of the economy and ending Green New Scam energy policy in favor of drill, baby, drill.  As noted by NEC Chairman Kevin Hasset, Trump has reduced deficit spending overall. There's still a long way to go, but significant MAGAnomic progress is being made.  Oh, and that skyrocketing “tariff inflation” the same shocked pundits proclaimed was sure to happen this time, well, that has not surfaced either.  Just like it didn't surface in 2018 or 2019 when the tariffs were applied the first time.

Time enough to make the economy shine come the mid-terms. Now we will start to see the fruits of that plan, and Trump’s speech tonight is to announce that. Is he right? One thing I’ve learned is to never bet against Trump. Maybe he is wrong. Maybe I’m wrong. But I still have trust. Political/Rights Nolte: Failing Oscars Demoted to YouTube Starting in 2029, the irrelevant Oscars will have its annual irrelevant Academy Awards show broadcast on — lol — YouTube. To dwindling ratings and cultural relevance, the Oscars have been broadcast on ABC since 1976. The final broadcast will occur in 2028, which also happens to be the 100th anniversary of the award ceremony.

His efforts coincided with student-led campaigns, including those supported by Fanaeian, to reduce campus policing in the wake of Lauren McCluskey's murder. At Brown University, Chatman recently faced an unanimous vote of no confidence back in October for the charge of having “directly contributed to an all-time low in morale and has strained the department's ability to effectively serve the Brown University community.” At the University of Utah, the student campaign to scale back policing was led by Emirya Fanaeian, the same leader of SLC Armed Queers.

Speculation in media and online discussions has included possible ballistic matches (e.g., 9mm casings recovered at Brown) or similar vehicles spotted at both scenes (e.g., unverified mentions of Nissan Sentras), but these remain unsubstantiated and are not confirmed as the linking evidence.  Some online commentary has also suggested motives tied to international actors, like Iran, based on celebratory posts in certain Telegram channels, but this is purely speculative and unconfirmed. https://twitter.com/EWess92/status/2001718099972886750?s=20 DOGE Geopolitical https://twitter.com/amuse/status/2001502910677397573?s=20 ‘German' Globalist Authoritarianism: Berlin Migrant Housing Costs Skyrocket to Nearly €1 Billion, Tripling Since 2020    Newly released government figures have revealed the capital spent nearly €900 million ($9.8 million) in 2024 alone to house migrants, many of which do not have any kind of status in the country, almost triple the cost from just four years earlier, Die Welt reports. Internal Senate data confirms that accommodation expenses for foreign nationals reached €883 million last year, compared with €312 million in 2020, an increase of 183%.

The massive 2010 sale of US uranium deposits to Russia approved by Hillary Clinton and rubber-stamped by the Committee on Foreign Investment in the United States (CFIUS) – after figures linked to the deal donated to the Clinton Foundation? Turns out rank-and-file FBI investigators thought there was enough smoke to launch a criminal investigation, but internal delays and disagreements within the DOJ and FBI ultimately caused the inquiry to lapse, newly released records reveal.   The Uranium One transaction – involving the sale of a Canadian mining company with substantial U.S. uranium assets to Russia's state-owned nuclear firm Rosatom – became a flashpoint during Hillary Clinton's 2016 presidential campaign. Critics argued that then-Secretary of State Clinton, a member of CFIUS, helped approve the deal while donors connected to Uranium One made large contributions to the Clinton Foundation.  The newly released documents suggest that the circumstances surrounding Uranium One were never fully investigated, leaving unresolved questions about how a strategic U.S. asset came under Russian control – and whether potential criminal conduct went unexamined due to internal delays and legal disputes.

His handpicked successor, Hillary Rodham Clinton, would then lose the Presidency to Donald J. Trump.”  JOE BIDEN “Sleepy Joe Biden was, by far, the worst President in American History. Taking office as a result of the most corrupt Election ever seen in the United States, Biden oversaw a series of unprecedented disasters that brought our Nation to the brink of destruction. His policies caused the highest Inflation ever recorded, leading the U.S. Dollar to lose more than 20% of its value in 4 years. His Green New Scam surrendered American Energy Dominance and, by abolishing the Southern Border, Biden let 21 million people from all over the World pour into the United States, including from prisons, jails, mental institutions, and insane asylums. His Afghan Disaster was among the most humiliating events in American History, and resulted in the murder of 13 brave American Servicemembers, with many others gravely wounded.

Federal prosecutors have recently presented new evidence to a grand jury in the Southern District of New York as part of the ongoing investigation into Sean "Diddy" Combs. This evidence includes testimony from Courtney Burgess, a former associate of Combs' late ex-girlfriend, Kim Porter. Burgess claims to possess significant materials, such as video footage and what he asserts is Porter's authentic memoir, which he believes substantiate allegations against Combs. He testified that federal agents from the Department of Homeland Security contacted him, leading to his grand jury appearance and the submission of these materials to prosecutors.In addition to Burgess's testimony, investigators have interviewed approximately ten male escorts regarding Combs' infamous "Freak Off" parties. These individuals, now in their 40s, have reportedly provided detailed accounts of the events, including allegations of being supplied with drugs and coerced into participation. Authorities are examining whether participants, particularly minors, were illegally forced into activities during these gatherings. Recent raids on Combs' residences resulted in the seizure of numerous items, including sexual paraphernalia and videos, as part of the broader investigation into allegations of sex trafficking and related offenses.In our second article...Ty Stiklorius, John Legend's longtime manager, recently shared a harrowing experience from nearly three decades ago at a New Year's Eve party hosted by Sean "Diddy" Combs in St. Barts. In an op-ed for The New York Times, she recounted being led into a bedroom by an unidentified man who then locked the door behind them. Stiklorius managed to escape by convincing the man to let her go, citing concern that her brother was looking for her. At the time, she dismissed the incident as an isolated case of inappropriate behavior at a party. However, after two decades in the music industry, she now views it as indicative of a pervasive culture that fosters sexual misconduct and exploitation.Stiklorius emphasized that such incidents are not anomalies but reflect a broader issue within the music industry, where power is often concentrated in the hands of male gatekeepers who exploit aspiring artists. She called for a cultural shift to dismantle this toxic environment, advocating for accountability and support for survivors. Stiklorius expressed hope that the industry can evolve beyond its current model, which has historically protected predators and their enablers, to create a safer and more equitable space for all artists.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:Sean ‘Diddy' Combs: Grand jury hearing from witness who claims he has footage of Combs potentially victimizing celebrities | CNNsource:John Legend's manager escaped 'terrifying situation' at Sean 'Diddy' Combs party

[SOURCE – AUGUST 19, 2025] As originally reported in August 2025 {SOURCE}, a group of far-left human rights advocate sent a letter to 150 U.S. colleges and universities asking them to disable the CCTV systems to protect “free expression and academic freedom across the country,” because “the Trump administration has launched an aggressive campaign against US academic institutions.” The motive for the request to disable CCTV systems as stated: “Right now these tools are facilitating the identification and punishment of student protesters, undermining activists' right to anonymity––a right the Supreme Court has affirmed as vital to free expression and political participation.” {SOURCE} The letter from ‘Fight For The Future‘ (August, 2025) came after an earlier campaign by the same group seeking to stop the use of facial recognition cameras on college campuses. {SOURCE} Source: theconservativetreehouse.com https://twitter.com/DataRepublican/status/2001107948312133776?s=20   network.

The university has not released an official statement explaining the deletion, but online discussions and news coverage point to it as an effort to scrub digital traces of Kharbouch during the ongoing FBI manhunt and investigation. His X (formerly Twitter) account has also been taken down, fueling theories of a cover-up by the university, media, or authorities to control the narrative around his pro-Palestine activism and alleged radical views. As of now, federal authorities have released images and a timeline of the suspect’s movements but have not publicly confirmed Kharbouch’s involvement, though some outlets report he has fled and remains at large with a $50,000 reward offered for information leading to his arrest. This is a summary of his (now deleted) manifesto: In Mustapha Kharbouch’s 2024 manifesto, “I Hear The Voice of My Ancestors Calling: From The Camps to The Campus,” published by the Institute for Palestine Studies, the author reflects on his role in the Brown University Gaza Solidarity Encampment amid the ongoing conflict in Gaza. As a third-generation stateless Palestinian refugee raised in Lebanon, Kharbouch draws from his family’s history of displacement during the 1948 Nakba to frame his activism. The piece begins with lyrics from an adapted “Ancestor Song,” symbolizing a call to action and intergenerational resilience. He describes participating in non-violent protests, including an eight-day hunger strike by 19 students, arrests of 61 comrades for demanding university divestment from apartheid and illegal occupation, and organizing encampments with hundreds of participants engaging in rallies, teach-ins, art, film screenings, and chants. Kharbouch explores themes of “radical love” for land and people in Gaza, collective grief over the genocide, and solidarity as a revolutionary practice rooted in Palestinian revolutionary traditions that reject colonialism, carcerality, and imperialism. He critiques passive hope, instead advocating for active, decolonial hope through community-building and bearing witness to atrocities, like the invasion of Rafah. Influenced by queer feminist approaches (citing scholars like Sarah Ihmoud and Robin Kelley), he emphasizes transforming anger and despair into sustainable world-making, while questioning intergenerational betrayal and the cynicism inherited from survival under oppression. Ultimately, the manifesto affirms the encampment’s role in a broader student rebellion, linking campus actions to global Palestinian liberation and calling for continued, unyielding commitment despite challenges. https://twitter.com/EndWokeness/status/2001028141851013528?s=20 https://twitter.com/JamesHartline/status/2001090533746467327?s=20 https://twitter.com/EndWokeness/status/2001089445194235926?s=20 https://twitter.com/ProvidenceRIPD/status/2001345847133643062?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw%7Ctwcamp%5Etweetembed%7Ctwterm%5E2001345847133643062%7Ctwgr%5E8764cf1453bd57445310069de900ad0f6828d697%7Ctwcon%5Es1_c10&ref_url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.thegatewaypundit.com%2F2025%2F12%2Fbreaking-providence-police-release-photos-person-proximity-brown%2F https://twitter.com/nypost/status/2001047137308590081?s=20 https://twitter.com/TheSCIF/status/2000985628029403418?s=20 https://twitter.com/amuse/status/2001347329585012818?s=20 https://twitter.com/elonmusk/status/2001000454042607728?s=20 DOGE Trump Suspends ‘Tech Prosperity Deal' With UK Over Censorship and Regulations by ‘Online Safety Bill' Hurting US Tech Companies  Trump has suspended the ‘Tech Prosperity Deal' with the UK over its censorship push.

The law allows the British government to levy large fines on tech giants it deems have facilitated hate speech.” After the rise of artificial intelligence, companies like OpenAI or xAI can face huge fines – harming their growth and giving China an edge in the AI race. “'The perception is that Britain is way out there on attempting to police what is said online, and it's caused real concern', a source with knowledge of the decision to suspend the deal said. ‘Americans went into this deal thinking Britain were going to back off regulating American tech firms but realized it was going to restrict the speech of American chatbots'.” Source: thegatewaypundit.com Geopolitical https://twitter.com/elonmusk/status/2001217017001685167?s=20    of our Assets, and many other reasons, including Terrorism, Drug Smuggling, and Human Trafficking, the Venezuelan Regime has been designated a FOREIGN TERRORIST ORGANIZATION. Therefore, today, I am ordering A TOTAL AND COMPLETE BLOCKADE OF ALL SANCTIONED OIL TANKERS going into, and out of, Venezuela. The Illegal Aliens and Criminals that the Maduro Regime has sent into the United States during the weak and inept Biden Administration, are being returned to Venezuela at a rapid pace. America will not allow Criminals, Terrorists, or other Countries, to rob, threaten, or harm our Nation and, likewise, will not allow a Hostile Regime to take our Oil, Land, or any other Assets, all of which must be returned to the United States, IMMEDIATELY. Thank you for your attention to this matter! DONALD J. TRUMP PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA In 1970, as National Security Advisor, Kissinger was briefed on and helped shape US oil import policies toward Venezuela following a visit by Venezuelan President Rafael Caldera. These policies, announced in June 1970, focused on long-term petroleum development and were positively received by Venezuela, but they represented unilateral US adjustments rather than a negotiated deal.  In 1972, Venezuela terminated a longstanding reciprocal trade agreement with the US that included concessional tariff rates on Venezuelan oil imports. Kissinger was informed of this as National Security Advisor, and the US considered maintaining low tariffs to avoid cost increases, but this was a termination process, not a new deal.   Venezuela effectively took control of oil fields and assets from US companies on two major occasions, though the processes involved nationalization and expropriation rather than outright theft without legal frameworks or compensation. These actions shifted operations from private foreign (including US) entities to state control under the Venezuelan government.In the 1970s, Venezuela nationalized its entire oil industry, which had been largely developed and operated by foreign companies since the early 20th century. On January 1, 1976, the government officially took over, creating the state-owned Petróleos de Venezuela, S.A. (PDVSA). This affected major US firms like Exxon (formerly Standard Oil), Gulf Oil, and others, which had held concessions. The companies were provided compensation as part of the process, and it was generally seen as an expected transition in global oil politics at the time, without major disruptions to US supply. In 2007, under President Hugo Chávez, Venezuela escalated state control by mandating that foreign oil projects in the Orinoco Belt (a massive heavy oil reserve) convert to joint ventures where PDVSA held at least a 60% stake. Companies like Chevron complied, but ExxonMobil and ConocoPhillips refused, leading to the government expropriating their assets. International arbitration tribunals later ruled these actions unlawful, awarding ExxonMobil about $1.6 billion and ConocoPhillips over $8 billion in compensation (though Venezuela has contested and delayed payments). This has been a point of ongoing tension, with US firms pursuing Venezuelan assets globally to enforce the awards. These events did not involve taking oil fields directly from the US government but from American corporations with investments in Venezuela, reflecting broader shifts toward resource nationalism. https://twitter.com/WarClandestine/status/2001087786879795546?s=20 War/Peace Zelensky: If Putin rejects peace plan, US must give us weapons The Ukrainian leader issued the warning as Russia said it would not drop its claims to land it believes to be its own  So Zelensky, NATO EU DS rewrote the plan knowing Russia wouldn’t accept it.  Source: thetimes.com Zelensky is stealing the election before it begins The overstaying Ukrainian leader has made a show of agreeing to hold a vote – but his preconditions make a mockery of it   The often-heard claim that Ukraine cannot hold presidential elections in wartime, by the way, is badly misleading, and a thoroughly politically motivated misrepresentation of the facts: In reality, the Ukrainian constitution only prohibits parliamentary elections in time of war.

Secretary of War Pete Hegseth directed all War Department department heads and principal staff assistants to “take immediate action to recognize and reward [the] very best” of the department's civilian workforce with “meaningful monetary awards consistent with the relevant existing civilian awards authorities for each pay system,” according to a memorandum for senior Pentagon leadership first obtained by The Daily Wire.

The massive 2010 sale of US uranium deposits to Russia approved by Hillary Clinton and rubber-stamped by the Committee on Foreign Investment in the United States (CFIUS) – after figures linked to the deal donated to the Clinton Foundation? Turns out rank-and-file FBI investigators thought there was enough smoke to launch a criminal investigation, but internal delays and disagreements within the DOJ and FBI ultimately caused the inquiry to lapse, newly released records reveal.   The Uranium One transaction – involving the sale of a Canadian mining company with substantial U.S. uranium assets to Russia's state-owned nuclear firm Rosatom – became a flashpoint during Hillary Clinton's 2016 presidential campaign. Critics argued that then-Secretary of State Clinton, a member of CFIUS, helped approve the deal while donors connected to Uranium One made large contributions to the Clinton Foundation.  The newly released documents suggest that the circumstances surrounding Uranium One were never fully investigated, leaving unresolved questions about how a strategic U.S. asset came under Russian control – and whether potential criminal conduct went unexamined due to internal delays and legal disputes.

Micah James Legnon, 28, was charged with threats in interstate commerce. Federal authorities said they had been surveilling Legnon due to ties to an extremist anti-capitalist and anti-government group. Four members of the group were arrested Friday in the Mojave Desert, east of Los Angeles, as they were rehearsing a foiled plot to set off bombs in Southern California on New Year's Eve, authorities said.  Legnon believed it was time to “recreate” Waco with an attack in New Orleans, authorities said in court documents. They pointed to a Dec. 4 chat message by Legnon written under the alias “Kateri The Witch” the day after Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents arrived in New Orleans. Legnon's alias had “she/her” written beside it, but jail records referred to Legnon as male.

So everybody knows that — but I've often said that if I did, I'd have a very good chance of being an alcoholic. I have said that many times about myself, I do. It's a very possessive personality,” Trump told the Post. “I've said that many times about myself. I'm fortunate I'm not a drinker. If I did, I could very well, because I've said that — what's the word? Not possessive — possessive and addictive type personality. Oh, I've said it many times, many times before,” he added.

The Federal Reserve tipped it's hand for a bull market. Today we discuss the details. We talk economic divergence, as decades of debt-fueled growth and asset inflation have benefited boomers and asset owners while leaving younger generations locked out of housing and upward mobility, creating frustration and political volatility. The U.S. economy is fundamentally leveraged by pulling future earnings forward and this could be an eventual but unpredictable global financial reset. We also talk the near-term debt panic but don't get nervous as deficits are the true risk. We also talk practical investing takeaways around market cycles, sentiment, tax-loss selling, Santa Claus rally dynamics, and the importance of patience, diversification, and avoiding extreme, fear-driven decisions. We discuss... We highlight generational economic disparities, noting younger people struggle with housing affordability and wealth accumulation compared to boomers. Economic frustration among younger generations is linked to the appeal of populist political figures who speak to lived experiences. The U.S. economy is heavily leveraged, with future earnings being pulled forward to maintain growth and consumption. We warn of a potential global financial reset, while emphasizing that timing and specifics are uncertain. Central banks' accumulation of gold is a signal of perceived systemic risk and preparation for a global reset. Debt itself can be manageable, but the ongoing growth of deficits is the real problem. Concerns about foreign countries dumping U.S. bonds were dismissed as largely impractical due to mutual economic harm. Market reactions to Fed rate cuts are analyzed, showing how assets like stocks, silver, the dollar, and Treasury yields respond differently. It's important to analyze market cycles and sentiment, rather than relying on GDP or simplistic economic indicators. Tax-loss selling and end-of-year market dynamics are discussed as opportunities to buy undervalued assets with lower downside risk. The Santa Claus rally and January market patterns are historically strong indicators for short-term gains. Focus on sectors or assets that were beaten down, watch early January flows, and avoid extreme, fear-driven moves.   Today's Panelists: Kirk Chisholm | Innovative Wealth Douglas Heagren | Mergent College Advisors Follow on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/moneytreepodcast Follow LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/showcase/money-tree-investing-podcast Follow on Twitter/X: https://x.com/MTIPodcast For more information, visit the show notes at https://moneytreepodcast.com/the-federal-reserved-tipped-its-hand-773

Documented her fears online. She even posted research showing that victims who are strangled are 750% more likely to be murdered by their abuser. But instead of protection, she got a court ruling awarding joint custody to the man she said she feared. Three days later, Charity and her six-year-old twins were found dead from gunshot wounds. No one has been charged. Federal agencies — including Homeland Security and the Secret Service — have joined the investigation. And now, the 2012 shooting death of the same man's first wife — ruled a suicide at the time, with evidence later destroyed — has been reopened. Former FBI Special Agent Robin Dreeke joins me to break down the behavioral indicators in this case, the system failures that may have placed Charity and her children at greater risk, and the patterns investigators look for when multiple deaths surround the same individual over time. We discuss: – Why strangulation is one of the strongest lethality predictors in domestic violence – How victims often signal escalating danger long before systems recognize it – Why courts prioritize parental rights even in high-risk domestic-violence cases – How federal agencies approach complex or multi-jurisdictional investigations – What reopening a prior death means behaviorally — not legally – What investigators evaluate when someone's partner has died in similar circumstances – How abusers often use legal filings to assert control, even during investigations – What professionals look for when interviewing someone connected to multiple deaths This isn't about speculation. This is about patterns — behavioral, systemic, institutional — and why victims like Charity fall through the cracks even when they are shouting for help. #CharityBeallis #DomesticViolenceAwareness #SystemFailure #HiddenKillers #TonyBrueski #RobinDreeke #StrangulationRisk #FamilyCourtReform #TrueCrimePodcast #JusticeForCharity Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

U.S. Senator Ron Johnson of Wisconsin joins the conversation on two major fronts: foreign policy and federal accountability. Johnson discusses recent developments involving Venezuela, including the U.S. seizure of an oil tanker, President Trump's designation of the Maduro regime as a foreign terrorist organization, and efforts to apply pressure on what he calls an illegitimate regime following a fraudulent election. He says Trump is taking decisive action to confront the crisis and push Venezuela back toward stability and prosperity. The conversation then turns to COVID vaccine oversight, where Johnson states on the record that federal health agencies knowingly concealed vaccine risk signals, including myocarditis. He points to VAERS data, saying agencies initially promoted the system as a trusted safety tool but failed to warn the public and doctors when concerning signals emerged, raising serious questions about transparency, trust, and government responsibility.

No 3 em 1 desta quarta-feira (17), o destaque foi que o presidente Lula anunciou, hoje, a saída de Celso Sabino do Ministério do Turismo, de olho na disputa pelo Senado em 2026. O União Brasil indicou Gustavo Damião, filho do deputado Damião Feliciano, para o cargo. Durante a reunião, Lula afirmou ainda que 2026 será “o ano da verdade” para o país. Reportagem: André Anelli.

A Comissão de Constituição e Justiça do Senado aprovou, por 17 votos a 7, o PL da Dosimetria nesta quarta-feira (17). O relator restringiu o alcance do texto aos envolvidos nos atos de 8 de janeiro. A proposta segue agora para o Plenário do Senado. Reportagem: Igor Damasceno. Em entrevista exclusiva à Jovem Pan, o senador Esperidião Amin, relator do PL na CCJ, comentou a aprovação do projeto que altera o cálculo de penas. Amin destacou que Lula, em sua trajetória parlamentar, já votou a favor de um tipo de anistia e avaliou que, apesar da possibilidade de veto, acredita na sanção do texto. Reportagem: Igor Damasceno.

We’re still reeling from the shock murder of filmmaker and actor Rob Reiner and his wife Michele. The LA District Attorney Nathan Hochman has charged their son Nick Reiner with two counts of first-degree murder, carrying a maximum sentence of life in prison, with possibility of the death penalty. Federal prosecutors arrested four SoCal people who are part of a group called Turtle Island Liberation Front. They were plotting a New Year’s Eve terrorist attack in which they planned simultaneous bombings across LA as people enjoyed the festivities. Dictionary.com’s word of the year is six-seven.

2025 reshaped the employment law landscape, bringing sweeping changes at both the federal and state levels. In this year-end special episode, Epstein Becker Green attorneys break down the most impactful developments for employers. Key Issues for Employers: DEI rollbacks: Companies are scaling back diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) programs, with reverse discrimination suits on the rise. AI governance: Federal deregulation has spurred state-level action, with AI now influencing workforce management at every level. Non-compete regulations: The Federal Trade Commission abandoned its proposed nationwide ban on non-compete agreements, while states such as Florida and Kansas enacted employer-friendly laws. Employers face a rapidly evolving legal landscape, and understanding the nuances of 2025's changes is essential for effective planning and compliance in 2026. - Visit our site for this week's Other Highlights and links: https://www.ebglaw.com/eltw416 Download our Wage & Hour Guide for Employers app: https://www.ebglaw.com/wage-hour-guide-for-employers-app. Subscribe to #WorkforceWednesday: https://www.ebglaw.com/eltw-subscribe Visit http://www.EmploymentLawThisWeek.com - Epstein Becker Green is a national law firm that focuses its resources on health care, life sciences, and workforce management solutions, coupled with powerful litigation strategies.

A palavra-chave é "Constituição". Este episódio do Magna Carta traz uma profunda reflexão sobre a atualidade da Constituição Federal de 1988. Diante de violações sucessivas aos princípios constitucionais como a presunção de inocência, o devido processo legal, a liberdade de expressão e a independência entre os poderes, surge a pergunta: nossa Constituição ainda está em vigor?

The Monterey County District Attorney's office is investigating an officer-involved shooting in Soledad. And, migrant children are stuck alone in federal shelters across the country even when relatives have been cleared to take them.

Confira os destaques do Jornal da Manhã desta quarta-feira (17): A CCJ analisa nesta quarta-feira (17) o PL da Dosimetria, mas o senador Alessandro Vieira (MDB) já antecipou voto contrário, alertando que a lei pode beneficiar criminosos violentos comuns. Simultaneamente, o ministro Alexandre de Moraes criticou duramente tentativas de atenuar penas para condenados por tentativa de golpe. O repórter André Anelli informou que, após visitar o Jair Bolsonaro (PL) na Polícia Federal, o senador Flávio Bolsonaro (PL) comunicou que o ex-presidente apoia o PL da Dosimetria mesmo que o texto não o inclua. O foco, segundo ele, é reduzir as penas dos condenados pelos atos de 8 de janeiro de 2023. O repórter Rodrigo Viga detalhou a transferência do ex-deputado Thiago Santos Silva (TH Joias), considerado o pivô de escândalos recentes no Rio de Janeiro. Sob forte esquema de segurança, ele foi levado em avião da PF para a capital federal após investigações sobre vazamento de informações na Operação Unha e Carne. A repórter Rany Veloso detalhou a aprovação do projeto que corta benefícios fiscais e aumenta impostos para diversos setores, incluindo apostas online e bancos digitais. A medida, de interesse do governo federal, visa liberar R$ 22,45 bilhões para o orçamento de 2026. A repórter Janaína Camelo informou que o presidente Lula (PT) cobrou a União Europeia, citando nominalmente Emmanuel Macron (França) e Giorgia Meloni (Itália), para a assinatura do acordo com o Mercosul. A expectativa é que isso ocorra no próximo sábado (20) em Foz do Iguaçu. O presidente Lula (PT) lidera em todos os cenários de primeiro turno pesquisados em um levantamento divulgado pela Genial/Quaest, com percentuais que vão de 34% a 41%. O senador Flávio Bolsonaro (PL) aparece em segundo lugar nos seis possíveis cenários. A avaliação testou cinco situações, e Lula apareceu à frente de Flávio Bolsonaro, Tarcísio de Freitas (Republicanos), Ratinho Jr. (PSD), Ronaldo Caiado (União Brasil) e Romeu Zema (Novo). O levantamento ouviu 2.004 eleitores entre os dias 11 e 14 de dezembro, com margem de erro de dois pontos percentuais, para mais ou para menos. O presidente Lula (PT) e os 38 ministros devem realizar a última reunião ministerial do ano. As autoridades pretendem discutir sobre os projetos durante o ano, e as expectativas para o ano que vem. Reportagem: Janaína Camelo. O cenário político em Brasília e São Paulo está em ebulição com a notícia de que o ministro da Fazenda, Fernando Haddad, está preparando sua saída da pasta. A movimentação não é por desgaste técnico, mas sim por uma estratégia eleitoral do PT, que vê em Haddad o nome mais forte para enfrentar a direita no estado de São Paulo em 2026. A repórter Janaína Camelo informou que o ex-presidente Jair Bolsonaro (PL), atualmente preso na superintendência da PF em Brasília, passará por uma perícia médica no Instituto Nacional de Criminalística nesta quarta-feira (17). O exame foi determinado por Alexandre de Moraes após a defesa alegar urgência para uma cirurgia de duas hérnias inguinais. Em novembro de 2025, os EUA criaram 64.000 empregos, recuperando-se de outubro. Porém, a taxa de desemprego subiu para 4,6%, a mais alta em anos. Eliseu Caetano explicou que analistas não veem isso como enfraquecimento real, mas como uma distorção causada pelo "shutdown" (fechamento) do governo federal por 43 dias, que atrapalhou a coleta de dados. O governo de Nicolás Maduro emitiu uma nota oficial rebatendo as declarações de Donald Trump. O documento classifica a postura dos EUA como uma "reivindicação colonialista" sobre o petróleo e minérios venezuelanos. Essas e outras notícias você acompanha no Jornal da Manhã.

In this episode of The President's Daily Brief: First up— a New Year's Eve terror plot disrupted. Federal authorities arrest multiple suspects accused of planning coordinated bombing attacks across Southern California and Los Angeles. We'll break down what investigators say was planned—and how close this came to becoming something far worse. Later in the show— a potential shift in naval warfare. Ukraine claims it used an underwater drone to cripple a Russian Kilo-class submarine in the Black Sea. If confirmed, it could reshape how modern naval conflicts are fought. Plus, an Israeli strike kills a senior Hamas commander in Gaza, drawing sharp criticism from the Trump administration over an alleged ceasefire violation. And in today's Back of the Brief— the latest on the Brown University shooting, as police release the person of interest and continue their search for the suspect.

Exposed again. An important call now exists on video. Federal civil employees, living on tax payer dollars, are working hard to circumvent our Constitution. Pay attention DOJ. Does a union for tax funded jobs make sense? There are laws covering civil service. This video should justify decertification of their federal employee union. These people are launching Influence operations against citizens. When your fight is gone, the team no longer needs you. Tiny violins rule.We watch taxpayer funded campaigns and collective action. They organized the shutdown showdown. Sabotage, slowing down government, delaying segments, MSM will never discuss this. They are part of the operation. G4P meets to plan an overthrow of the government. False flags and mass casualty events for public control. What were the goals of the Aussie operation? Exposing deception makes people angry. Distributing subversion to cover it up. Is this emergency governance or abuse of power? These are tough times for military parents. Obama, DHS and influence operations. We all must learn to forgive those who have hurt us, although it could be the hardest move of all.

For the last six weeks, children who crossed the US-Mexico border alone have been inexplicably stuck in federal custody at shelters across the country. The Trump administration has stopped releasing these kids to their families and loved ones. It's not saying why. But sources in the government agency that's in charge of unaccompanied kids — and lawyers who help them —  say they've never seen anything like this.

What happens when technology grows faster than the rules meant to guide it? We toast the season finale by tackling that question head-on—starting with a bold move to centralize AI regulation at the federal level and preempt state-by-state rules. We lay out what a single national framework could fix, what it could break, and how lobbying from the biggest AI players complicates the path forward. Uniform standards might speed innovation and reduce compliance chaos, but local expertise matters, and trust depends on safeguards that balance industry power with public interest.Then we shift from policy to pavement. Waymo keeps making headlines for the wrong reasons: riders passing out in driverless cars, a recall tied to passing stopped school buses with flashing lights, and a bizarre three-car standoff that jammed a steep San Francisco street for nearly an hour. We unpack what these incidents reveal about human behavior in autonomous systems, the limits of remote intervention, and the public's patience when “driverless” becomes neighborhood gridlock. Safety updates and voluntary recalls are essential, but accountability, transparency, and resilient design are how this technology earns the right to scale.Not everything is caution tape and traffic cones. We spotlight the AirFly Pro 2 from Twelve South, a small Bluetooth transmitter that lets two people share audio from any 3.5 mm jack—perfect for flights, older TVs, and road trips. It's simple, reliable, and exactly the kind of travel tech that quietly improves your day. We also marvel at a $380,000 “human washing machine”—part luxury, part lab experiment—hinting at future wellness and eldercare tech where biometrics and comfort meet. And we raise a glass to a standout Jack Daniel's single barrel heritage barrel release, trading tasting notes on char, sweetness, and that long, confident finish.Along the way we nod to Perl's enduring place in internet history, reminding ourselves that the tools that last aren't always the flashiest—they're the ones that solve real problems again and again. As we wrap season seven, the through-line is clear: when tech outruns law, human behavior fills the void. The best builders anticipate that gap, and the best policy keeps pace without strangling the spark. If that balance excites you as much as it challenges you, you're our kind of listener.Enjoyed the season? Subscribe, share the show with a friend, and leave a review to help others find us.

The recently passed Pennsylvania state budget includes more money for tuberculosis prevention efforts in the Commonwealth. Federal data show cases of TB steadily rising nationally after nearly three decades of decline. The University of Pittsburgh Medical Center is establishing a rural residency program in an effort to bolster the rural doctor workforce. Here’s how it works: Residents start at UPMC Williamsport before transferring to either UPMC Wellsboro or UPMC Cole in Coudersport. Both locations are in Pennsylvania’s northern tier known as the Pennsylvania Wilds region. In Cumberland County, an 80-year-old woman was found dead after a house fire early Sunday morning, according to the Cumberland County Coroner's Office. State officials discovered a month's worth of mail wasn't sent by a government-contracted mail house over the past month. The backlog of mail totals 3.4 million letters, including notices of SNAP eligibility and health benefit information, as well as driver’s license and vehicle registration renewal invitations from PennDOT. Pennsylvania lawmakers could end the year with the lowest number of new laws in at least a decade. That's due to split government, heightened partisanship, and the concentration of power in the hands of legislative leaders, according to reporting by our partners at Spotlight PA. Sunday marked the beginning of Hanukkah. The city of Lancaster and the Jewish Community Alliance of Lancaster hosted a menorah lighting in Penn Square.

The workplace in 2025 feels like it's moving at double speed. Federal contractors saw affirmative action requirements disappear virtually overnight. DEI programs have gone from top priority to barely mentioned in less than a year. AI is racing ahead of regulation, and states like Massachusetts are charting their own course while the federal government pulls in the opposite direction.Pete Wright sits down with Tom Jones and Kyle Pardo to make sense of it all. They walk through what the rollback of Executive Order 11246 means for employers still figuring out what they're required to track, how DEI is quietly shifting toward broader inclusion efforts, and why Massachusetts employers need to watch for changes to state average weekly wage calculations. The conversation also touches on what AI regulation might look like when the technology is evolving faster than lawmakers can keep up, and why remote work mandates are hitting morale harder than many leaders expected.But the biggest revelation comes from AIM's latest HR practices survey: for the first time in years, employee engagement and morale have become the number one priority for employers heading into 2026, surpassing even compensation. It's a signal that something fundamental has shifted in how organizations are thinking about their people. This episode offers a clear-eyed look at the year that was and what HR teams should be watching as they head into the next.AIM members can reach the HR Helpline at 800-470-6277 or helpline@aimnet.org for inquiries Monday through Friday from 8:30 a.m. – 5:00 p.m. (EST).

Confira os destaques de Os Pingos nos Is desta segunda-feira (15):A defesa do ex-presidente Jair Bolsonaro (PL) entrou com novo pedido no Supremo Tribunal Federal solicitando autorização para uma cirurgia de emergência e a transferência para prisão domiciliar. Segundo os advogados, houve agravamento do quadro clínico, comprovado por exames de imagem e novo relatório médico. O pedido foi encaminhado ao STF para análise. O presidente do Senado, Davi Alcolumbre (União Brasil-AP), pautou a votação do PL da dosimetria para esta quarta-feira. O projeto também deve ser analisado no mesmo dia pela Comissão de Constituição e Justiça da Casa. Alcolumbre já havia sinalizado a intenção de levar a matéria à votação até o fim do ano. Durante atos da esquerda contra o PL da dosimetria realizados neste domingo (14), uma manifestante foi detida após pichar uma estátua em Belo Horizonte. A mulher, identificada como Thabata Pinheiro Campos, escreveu “Brasil Terra Indígena” na base do Monumento à Terra Mineira e resistiu à abordagem da Guarda Municipal. Segundo a defesa, ela foi ouvida e liberada pela polícia ainda no domingo. O presidente da Comissão de Constituição e Justiça do Senado, Otto Alencar (PSD-BA), afirmou que a versão do PL da dosimetria aprovada pela Câmara apresenta brechas e extrapola os atos de 8 de janeiro, alcançando crimes comuns. Segundo o senador, o texto pode favorecer facções criminosas e, por isso, não teria chance de avançar na CCJ. O Senado admite discutir mudanças nos critérios para processos de impeachment de presidentes da República. A proposta prevê que um presidente reeleito possa responder por atos praticados no mandato anterior. Atualmente, o entendimento da legislação limita a responsabilização a crimes cometidos dentro da mesma legislatura. O governo do presidente Lula (PT) criou, em três anos, três vezes mais cargos comissionados do que a gestão de Jair Bolsonaro (PL) no mesmo período. São 4.417 cargos na administração atual, contra 1.183 nos três primeiros anos do governo anterior. Ao todo, o governo federal soma mais de 50 mil cargos comissionados, concentrados principalmente no INSS, no Ministério da Fazenda e na Polícia Federal. O presidente da Câmara dos Deputados, Hugo Motta (Republicanos-PB), decidiu adiar as votações da PEC da Segurança e do PL Antifacção. A decisão foi tomada após reunião de líderes partidários. Segundo Motta, a avaliação é de que os temas devem ser discutidos com mais calma antes de avançarem no plenário. José Antonio Kast (Partido Republicano) venceu as eleições presidenciais no Chile realizadas neste domingo (14), resultado que marca uma mudança no equilíbrio político da América do Sul. Com a vitória, o continente passa a ter seis países governados pela direita e seis pela esquerda. Você confere essas e outras notícias em Os Pingos nos Is.

Lower deficits and trade imbalances reduce economic pressures that drive up prices, potentially stabilizing costs for consumers and businesses.  these figures signal improving fiscal health. For context, the U.S. deficit was around $1.7 trillion in 2024; dropping it by $600 billion would bring it closer to $1.1 trillion—a substantial cut that could ease long-term debt concerns and support lower interest rates.  Lower inflation to 2% would mean steadier prices, boosting real wages and consumer confidence.   The U.S. budget deficit is the annual shortfall when government spending exceeds revenue in a given fiscal year. The national debt is the total accumulated amount owed from all past deficits (plus interest), essentially the running total of borrowed money. https://twitter.com/GuntherEagleman/status/2000268781084348516?s=20 Political/Rights https://twitter.com/disclosetv/status/1999945168120848428?s=20 https://twitter.com/MrAndyNgo/status/2000177646072631506?s=20 https://twitter.com/sentdefender/status/2000142553815847148?s=20 https://twitter.com/HamasAtrocities/status/2000263382197481781?s=20 https://twitter.com/BNODesk/status/2000304813591118154?s=20 from pakistan https://twitter.com/disclosetv/status/2000160163282727197?s=20 https://twitter.com/TheBritLad/status/2000308891104797052?s=20 https://twitter.com/Currentreport1/status/2000199214870180153?s=20 https://twitter.com/C_3C_3/status/2000055847309791603?s=20 Brown University Shooting Suspect In Custody; Gunman “Yelled Something” Before Attack On Econ Classroom  The shooter “yelled something” before the attack … Source: zerohedge.com https://twitter.com/nicksortor/status/2000264684180746600?s=20   authorities have detained the suspect in the Brown University shooting that occurred on December 13, 2025, which left two students dead and nine others injured.  The person of interest, identified as 24-year-old Benjamin Erickson from Wisconsin (who is not a Brown student), was taken into custody early on December 14 at a hotel in Coventry, Rhode Island, about 15 miles from the campus.  Officials have confirmed no other suspects are being sought, and the investigation is ongoing.

Guns aren't making us less safe and gun laws won't solve the problem. Most of our recent mass shootings had shooters who already violated gun laws to commit their crimes. The left wing culture in America, including mass migration is making us less safe. It's the root of our problem. Fix our regressive, hedonistic, violence and evil loving culture. That will fix America. We need our country to value strength, life, love, liberty, faith and family again.

TRULY WICKED: Obama Judge Lavishly PRAISES Illegal Alien Who R*ped and Sodomized Helpless Woman with Cerebral Palsy – Refuses to Add More Years to His Sentence The Detroit News reported on Friday that a violent illegal alien from Honduras who sexually assaulted a woman with cerebral palsy in a Michigan laundry room will be released from prison as early as July 2028, less than three tears from now thanks to a federal judge appointed by Barack Obama. The illegal, 30-year-old handyman Edys Renan Membreño Díaz was previously caught sneaking into the U.S. at least seven times since 2019. He pleaded guilty in 2022 to sexually assaulting the woman and was sentenced by Judge Judith Levy in August 2024 to time served.

Calm down – it's not 1939. But it could end up just as bad. Today (13), it has been reported that Germany is sending soldiers to Poland, in a bid to ‘strengthen' NATO's eastern border with Belarus and Russia. Politico reported: “Several dozen German soldiers will join Poland's East Shield from April 2026, with the mission initially running until the end of 2027, Deutsche Welle reported, citing Berlin's defense ministry. German troops will focus on engineering work, according to a ministry spokesperson quoted in the report. The spokesperson described this as building positions, digging trenches, laying barbed wire and constructing anti-tank obstacles.  .” Source: thegatewaypundit.com Zelenskyy offers to drop NATO bid for security guarantees but rejects US push to cede territory   Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy Zelenskyy on Sunday (December 14, 2025) voiced readiness to drop his country’s bid to join NATO in exchange for Western security guarantees, but rejected the U.S. push for ceding territory to Russia as he arrived in Berlin for talks with U.S. envoys on ending the war. Source: thehindu.com CIA Outlet Concerned About Kash Patel and Dan Bongino Meeting with Top Zelenskyy Officials It  been  reported that the FBI has been working closely with the National Anti-Corruption Bureau of Ukraine (NABU) in detecting and discovering corruption amid Ukraine officials who have skimmed money from various international aid programs.  However, the Washington Post is suddenly concerned that FBI Director Kash Patel and Deputy FBI Director Dan Bongino have held “secret meetings” with lead Ukraine peace negotiator Rustem Umerov.   it is easy to get the sense that Rustem Umerov is in alignment with the U.S. proposals, but Volodymyr Zelenskyy is not.  Hence, Zelenskyy keeps returning to his U.K, France, Germany and EU support network for counterproposals despite his officials like Umerov working with the U.S. team directly. This paragraph from within the WaPo (CIA) framework seems to tell a background story: […] “The meetings have caused alarm among Western officials who remain in the dark about their intent and purpose. Some said they believe Umerov and other Ukrainian officials sought out Patel and Bongino in the hopes of obtaining amnesty from any corruption allegations the Ukrainians could face. Others worry the newly established channel could be used to exert pressure on Zelensky's government to accept a peace deal, proposed by the Trump administration, containing steep concessions for Kyiv.” (more) Perhaps Zelenskyy's primary negotiator for the USA team, Rustem Umerov, has specific knowledge of corruption connected to the generous financial support the USA has provided Ukraine.  Watching Yermak get taken down within the FBI/NABU investigation, might have triggered Umerov to cooperate on several levels. Umerov reported as happy with the negotiated U.S. terms. Volodymyr Zelenskyy openly not happy with the negotiated terms. This is worth watching.

Filed in the U.S. District Court for the District of Minnesota, the complaint challenges contract provisions that prioritize teachers from “underrepresented populations” during layoffs, reassignments, and recalls, and that grant exclusive employment benefits to members of a third-party program known as “Black Men Teach Fellows.” Federal officials argue the policies violate Title VII of the Civil Rights Act, which prohibits discrimination based on race or sex in employment.
