Matthew Farwell is heading toward trial with two competing stories about Sandra Birchmore's death and an official record that has already changed. The Massachusetts medical examiner originally ruled suicide. In April 2026, the office amended the manner of death to undetermined and changed the cause from asphyxia by hanging to asphyxia. Farwell's lawyers maintain Sandra killed herself. A federal judge has ruled that they may introduce evidence about her mental-health struggles and history of suicidal thoughts. Prosecutors will argue that the case cannot be reduced to those records. They allege Farwell used his authority in the Stoughton Police Explorers program to begin an unlawful relationship with Sandra when she was 15 and later killed her to stop disclosure. Sandra had joined the youth program at 12. A later Stoughton internal investigation found that Matthew Farwell, his twin brother William, and former deputy chief Robert Devine had inappropriate relationships with her. William Farwell and Devine have not been charged in the federal prosecution. The early handling of Sandra's death is also expected to matter. Federal prosecutors say local officers told the medical examiner there was “no foul play” within about an hour of finding her body. They say investigators did not compel Farwell's DNA and did not seize his electronic devices during the first investigation. Federal investigators later returned to the evidence. Prosecutors have said testing showed Farwell was a major DNA contributor on the duffel-bag strap found at the scene. Defense lawyers say the strap contained a complex mixture and dispute the government's interpretation. Farwell has pleaded not guilty to charges of killing a witness and causing the death of Sandra's unborn son. The defense says suicide. The prosecution alleges homicide and staging. Jury selection is scheduled for October 5, 2026. Listen Anywhere You Get Podcasts: https://pod.link/1655749292 Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

The Mica Miller Netflix documentary revived one old label that has a very different September 2026 answer attached to it. JP Miller called Mark Kaufman his best friend from the Solid Rock pulpit, while Kaufman's September statement says JP was never part of the core friend group he regularly spent time with. Kaufman was not a stranger on the edge of the story. He served as best man at JP and Mica's 2017 wedding, where archival video captured him joking about JP forcing him into the friendship. On the morning after Mica died, JP again used the best-friend label publicly before Kaufman sang during the church service. In September 2026, Kaufman pushed back on how that relationship has been portrayed. He says he never witnessed mistreatment of Mica, denies claims that he helped JP pursue another woman, and says he has cut ties with JP and the church. Reporting says their business connection also ended when JP's minority interest in Crocodile Rocks was bought out in late 2025. The second half of this combined episode goes back to the May 5, 2024 memorial, where JP said he had spent time beside Mica's body on several occasions and claimed he tried to raise her from the dead. Former FBI Special Agent Robin Dreeke examines the psychology behind loyalty, denial, coercive-control allegations, and the public distancing that can follow when a closed community becomes the subject of federal scrutiny and national media attention. Federal prosecutors accuse JP of cyberstalking Mica and lying to investigators. The indictment alleges conduct beginning in November 2022, including tracking devices, more than 50 contacts in one day, financial interference, an intimate image posted without consent, and a tire-deflation device. JP pleaded not guilty, has not been charged in Mica's death, and is awaiting trial in the October 2026 term. Listen Anywhere You Get Podcasts: https://pod.link/1655749292 Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

The biggest SBA 8a program benefit is the one nobody quantifies: a negotiated sole-source contract that let this owner earn double to nearly triple the profit he saw in the competitive private market. Host Eric Coffie walks through the five SBA small business programs, then digs into why 8(a) stands alone as a nine-year business development program where a contracting officer can negotiate a contract directly with you instead of competing it. He breaks down how he framed a 10 and 10 markup inside the spirit of the program, why he leaned on mentor-protege and joint ventures, and the one piece of your business, your SAM registration, he says you should never hand off to a consultant. If you have wondered whether 8(a) is worth the nine years, this is the concrete payoff.

O presidente Lula embarcou para Nova York para participar da Assembleia Geral da ONU, em Nova York, onde participará. Lula tem um encontro previsto com o prefeito da cidade e também deve se reunir com o secretário-geral da ONU, António Guterres. Segundo o governo brasileiro, o presidente recebeu pelo menos 30 pedidos de reuniões bilaterais com chefes de Estado, mas deve atender apenas parte deles, por causa da agenda e da logística de segurança. Há ainda expectativa sobre um possível encontro com o presidente dos Estados Unidos, Donald Trump, que também participa da Assembleia e fará o discurso logo depois de Lula.

Com a decisão, o candidato fica impedido de realizar atos de campanha, participar de debates, veicular propaganda no rádio e na televisão e utilizar recursos públicos. A medida foi tomada pelo ministro Floriano de Azevedo Marques e vale até o julgamento do recurso pelo TSE.

Em 2023, o TSE havia considerado que Dallagnol deixou o Ministério Público Federal de forma antecipada para evitar procedimentos disciplinares, o que foi considerado fraude à Lei da Ficha Limpa.

JP Miller's federal cyberstalking case has three fights happening at once. The alleged helpers who are scattering. The defense team building a counter-narrative for October. And the Department of Justice preparing to dismantle all of it in front of a jury. Defense attorney and former prosecutor Eric Faddis takes on each one.Miller was indicted in December 2025 — one count of cyberstalking, one count of making false statements. Prosecutors allege he harassed Mica Miller from November 2022 through her death in April 2024 using tracking devices, over fifty daily contacts, a hired PI, tire damage, financial interference, and an intimate image posted without consent. He allegedly told agents the PI was to protect Mica from purchasing firearms. The government says that was a lie. Miller has pleaded not guilty and denies the allegations. He is not charged in Mica's death, which was ruled a suicide. She was thirty and had filed for divorce two days before. He faces up to seven years. Trial is October 2026.The enablers carry exposure the alleged orchestrator may have avoided — South Carolina's lack of a coercive control law limits state options, but the physical acts leave trails. The defense must convince twelve jurors that GPS trackers equal concern, not control, and must defend a statement to the FBI the government calls a lie. The prosecution has the evidence but needs the jury to feel the weight of living under alleged surveillance for two years — and the open question is whether these charges end the investigation or begin a larger one.Listen Anywhere You Get Podcasts: https://pod.link/1655749292Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Everyone watching the Netflix documentary calls JP Miller a narcissist, but the federal indictment, the civil lawsuits, the sworn affidavits, and three decades of documented behavior describe something the published research treats as a different category entirely. Federal prosecutors allege Miller ran a seventeen-month cyberstalking campaign against Mica Miller — tracking devices on her vehicles, more than fifty calls in one day, her nude photo posted online without consent, interference with her money and her daily life. He has pleaded not guilty. Her death was officially ruled a suicide and he has not been charged in it. Two women allege in civil complaints that Miller sexually assaulted them as children inside churches his family operated. His first wife swore under oath that he admitted to being sexually inappropriate with underage members of his congregation. His father pled guilty to federal charges for trapping international students in forced labor at a Bible college. A forensic psychologist, a psychotherapist, and a retired FBI behavioral analyst have all publicly applied clinical frameworks to this specific case — narcissism, Machiavellianism, psychopathy, coercive control, and the DARVO response pattern. This episode walks through the documented evidence and maps it against those frameworks. Then it asks the question domestic violence researchers have studied for decades: what happens when a person who built a system of control inside an institution loses that institution? Miller's church is gone. A global documentary is streaming his alleged conduct. A federal trial is approaching. He's preaching to a handful of people with an ankle monitor on. The research says that's when the profile becomes most dangerous.Listen Anywhere You Get Podcasts: https://pod.link/1655749292 Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

The Mica Miller case returned to national attention after Netflix's Death of the Pastor's Wife gave her friends and family room to describe what they say Mica was telling them before April 27, 2024. One friend says Mica expressed a specific fear involving JP Miller, a statement that now lands against a separate federal indictment alleging cyberstalking. Mica's death at Lumber River State Park was ruled a suicide, and JP Miller has not been charged with causing it. Her divorce attorney has said Mica was discussing a new start the day before she died, while the medical examiner's report recorded no signs of a struggle where shell casings were recovered. Those facts remain part of the official record even as Mica's loved ones continue to question how her final weeks unfolded. Federal prosecutors are asking a jury to decide something narrower. They allege JP engaged in cyberstalking from November 2022 through Mica's death, including unwanted communications, tracking devices, financial interference, repeated contacts, and an incident involving her vehicle tires. They also accuse him of lying to federal investigators; he has pleaded not guilty. The federal indictment carries a maximum of five years on the cyberstalking charge and two years on the false-statement count if Miller is convicted. He remains free on bond while the case waits for the October 2026 term. Jennifer Coffindaffer, a former FBI Special Agent, explains why the distinction matters. The federal trial can test the government's cyberstalking and false-statement allegations, but it is not a homicide case and cannot be treated as one. The result is a story with an official cause-of-death ruling, a pending federal prosecution, and a friend's account of what Mica said she feared before either became public. Listen Anywhere You Get Podcasts: https://pod.link/1655749292 Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Before her death on April 27, 2024, Mica Miller filed police reports alleging she was being tracked, harassed, and followed. She told officers she was afraid for her life. She also kept journals. Her family compiled the entries after she died and what they found was devastating—allegations of forced medication, forced injections, and sleep deprivation against her husband, pastor John-Paul "JP" Miller.None of the behavior Mica described to police was a crime in South Carolina. The state's domestic violence laws recognize only physical harm. Federal prosecutors charged JP with cyberstalking and making false statements—texts, a tracking app, and a tire deflation device. He has pleaded not guilty. Maximum sentence: seven years.Mica's Law would make coercive control a felony. It has failed four times in the South Carolina legislature since 2020.

On August 6th, 2026, the Justice Department told Duke Law that the median LSAT of the white and Asian applicants it rejected was higher than the median of the Black applicants it admitted. 34 days later it sent Berkeley Law a letter like it. In between, it opened a review of William and Mary's law school scholarships. I read the letters, the internal Duke emails they quote, and each school's answer, which I give you in full. Whoever wins, these letters change what admissions committees lean on this cycle, in a year with more high scorers applying than last year's. The Duke letter also contains a number law schools never publish, the median LSAT of applicants they rejected. Put it next to Duke's own 509 and it changes what "in range" means for your schools.

Confira os destaques do Jornal da Manhã desta sexta-feira (18): A 17 dias do primeiro turno das eleições, o presidente Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva anunciou um reajuste de 15% nos valores do Bolsa Família, elevando o benefício mínimo de R$ 600 para R$ 691. A equipe econômica justifica a medida como recomposição inflacionária, calculando um impacto fiscal de R$ 5,8 bilhões até o fim do ano. A decisão ocorre em meio a dados do “Gastômetro”, que indicam mais de R$ 269 bilhões em despesas no atual mandato, enquanto parlamentares de oposição criticam o momento do anúncio e classificam o aumento como eleitoreiro. Reportagem: Marco Viana. Durante a Assembleia Geral da Organização das Nações Unidas (ONU), o presidente Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva planeja um encontro com Donald Trump para pedir que os Estados Unidos não interfiram nas eleições brasileiras. A cobrança vem após revelações de que o governo americano incluiu, em uma lista de 21 exigências enviada ao Brasil, o pedido para que disfarçados de “dissidentes políticos” não fossem impedidos ou presos arbitrariamente de disputar o pleito. Reportagem: Eliseu Caetano. O ex-deputado federal Eduardo Bolsonaro afirmou em Washington, nos Estados Unidos, que ministros do Supremo Tribunal Federal (STF) poderiam contestar ou rejeitar uma eventual vitória de seu irmão, o senador e candidato à Presidência Flávio Bolsonaro, nas eleições de 2026. O presidente do STF, Edson Fachin, adiou indefinidamente a análise de uma ação que discute a condução do ministro André Mendonça em investigações, que estava prevista para a próxima semana. A decisão ocorreu após o pedido de vista em uma questão de ordem que pretendia unir esse caso ao julgamento das relações entre Alexandre de Moraes e Daniel Vorcaro. Reportagem: Beatriz Souza. O governo de Donald Trump exigiu que o Brasil não prendesse ou impedisse “arbitrariamente” que “dissidentes políticos” disputassem as eleições presidenciais de 2026. As informações foram divulgadas pelo jornal O Estado de S. Paulo nesta quinta-feira (17). Segundo documento obtido pela publicação, o governo dos Estados Unidos apresentou uma lista de 21 exigências ao Brasil em outubro de 2025. O texto, entregue em Washington durante reuniões para tentar reverter o “tarifaço” de 50% imposto pelos americanos, causou forte mal-estar no governo brasileiro, que considerou a iniciativa uma ingerência direta em assuntos internos do país. Reportagem: Eliseu Caetano. A Polícia Federal intimou Daniel Vorcaro e o pai, Henrique Vorcaro, a depor em 30 de setembro, às 14h e 16h, respectivamente.

Os dois ministros haviam solicitado o acesso ao material na quarta-feira (16). A entrega ocorre em meio à crise instalada no Supremo em torno das investigações sobre o Master e amplia o número de integrantes da Corte com acesso direto ao conteúdo do aparelho de Vorcaro. Cristiano Zanin, Gilmar Mendes e Alexandre de Moraes já haviam recebido cópias dos dados diretamente da PF no início da semana. Reportagem: Marco Viana. Daniel Vorcaro se reuniu com o ministro Gilmar Mendes, do STF, em abril de 2024, para pedir apoio em uma causa bilionária envolvendo usinas do setor sucroalcooleiro. Gilmar, porém, votou contra a tese do ex-banqueiro em julgamentos de casos concretos. À época, Vorcaro mantinha um contrato de R$ 500 mil mensais com Chiquinho Feitosa, então cunhado de Gilmar, que teria viabilizado o encontro e atuado como lobista. As ações poderiam chegar a R$ 145 bilhões, segundo estimativas da AGU. Reportagem: Beatriz Souza. Essas e outras notícias você acompanha no Jornal da Manhã. Learn more about your ad choices.

Our new cohost may be quiet, but he sees everything. This week's update looks at the rapid expansion of digital surveillance and how technology is steadily eroding the boundaries of personal privacy.Federal and local authorities are increasingly turning to financial data, automated license plate readers, and predictive algorithms to track and target people, sometimes without warrants or clear explanations. At the same time, everyday devices such as smart TVs and wearables are becoming persistent sensors, capable of monitoring networks, locations, and even private conversations.And then there's AI. Autonomous agents are already demonstrating the ability to hack systems without authorization, while foreign entities are finding ways to harvest data from AI models. From the Pentagon's use of AI in military logistics to massive database breaches exposing millions of travelers, sensitive information is becoming an increasingly valuable part of modern infrastructure.Taken together, these stories point to something bigger than a collection of isolated incidents. We are moving toward a world where being watched is no longer the exception. It's becoming part of the infrastructure around us. The question may no longer be whether someone is watching, but who's watching, what they know, and what they can do with it.

EP 740 Ed Sheeran & Macklemore Under Fire, FBI Policy Backlash,Texas Execution & a $1.3M Federal Fraud Case

In this episode of the 47 Morning Update w Ben Ferguson, Ben examines the Southern California daycare fraud case, the Justice Department's broader enforcement efforts, and what these investigations reveal about alleged abuse of taxpayer-funded programs. He discusses recent actions involving pandemic loan fraud, health care fraud prosecutions, efforts to recover lost funds, and the administration's stated goal of making fraud enforcement a government-wide priority. A federal crackdown in Southern California has led to charges against 12 individuals accused of fraudulently collecting more than $10 million in taxpayer-funded child care subsidies. Federal prosecutors allege that licensed home daycare operators submitted false attendance records, claimed payments for services never provided, and collected funds intended to help low-income families access child care. The case highlights a broader push by the Trump administration and the Department of Justice to target fraud across multiple government programs, from child care subsidies to pandemic-era relief loans and health care reimbursements. Investigators say they used surveillance, travel records, bank data, and other evidence to test whether taxpayer-funded services were actually being delivered.

Mica Francis' case is now receiving widespread attention following the Netflix documentary The Death of the Pastor's Wife. Laura analysed Mica's case as it unfolded, documenting the pattern of coercive control, stalking and post-separation abuse Mica reported experiencing before her death.  30-year-old Mica Francis (Miller) was found dead from a gunshot wound at Lumber River State Park in Robeson County, North Carolina, on April 27, 2024, two days after serving her husband, John Paul Miller, with divorce papers.  John Paul Miller has since been federally indicted on charges of cyberstalking and making false statements to federal investigators.  In this remastered episode, Laura is joined by award-winning investigative journalist Mandy Matney and award-winning author Liz Farrell, co-hosts of True Sunlight, to analyse the federal indictment and break down the charges, timelines and alleged behaviours detailed within it.  Together, they examine the alleged pattern of behaviour through the lens of coercive control and stalking, including how cyberstalking can be used as a tactic of control and why the post-separation period can be particularly dangerous. They also discuss an important question: why was Mica not better protected while she was alive?  Understanding escalation and coercive control is lifesaving and life changing.

Minnesota regulators will take up a nearly two-year dispute Tuesday between a tribal nation and its electric cooperative. The Upper Sioux Community built a large solar array next to its casino near Granite Falls a couple of years ago. Minnesota Valley Cooperative Light and Power Association threatened to cut power to the casino, saying the solar project was far bigger than its policy allows.St. Paul City Council President Rebecca Noecker said in an interview this week that more permanent supportive housing is what's needed to solve the unhoused issue in the city. U.S. Senator Tina Smith says she's working to help free a Somali man arrested in Minnesota and sent to Guantanamo Bay, Cuba. Federal agents arrested Adam Abdullah in December. The 31-year-old asylum seeker told MPR News last week that he's one of eight Somalis there and is limited to one 10-minute phone call a day.Summit Brewing Company could lose its St. Paul brewery to foreclosure after its lender sued over more than $8 million in unpaid debt. A first court hearing on that lawsuit is set for Friday.

A U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement officer who shot and wounded a man in north Minneapolis this winter was arrested Wednesday in downtown Minneapolis. Christian Castro faces federal charges for allegedly lying to the FBI about the January shooting, in which he fired through the closed door of a home and wounded a man from Venezuela. Castro also faces state assault charges. He appeared in state court Thursday and is scheduled to appear in federal court Friday.The latest U.S. Drought Monitor shows the extent of drought in Minnesota largely unchanged over the past week, although conditions have improved in some areas. Much of northeastern Minnesota moved from severe to moderate drought after recent rainfall. About 71 percent of the state remains in some level of drought, with especially dry conditions in the Twin Cities, Red River Valley and east-central Minnesota.Minneapolis police have released body camera footage showing officers' encounter with the gunman during a mass shooting at an apartment complex earlier this month. The September 2 shooting left two residents dead and several people wounded, including two officers. The gunman, Carlton Johnson II, was fatally shot by police. The footage shows four officers' perspectives on an exchange of gunfire in a ninth-floor hallway.Several first-time candidates are running for local office in Pine Island and other Minnesota communities this fall, driven by concerns about new hyperscale data centers. Pine Island's City Council approved Google's plan for an 88-acre facility that could eventually expand to more than 400 acres. City Council candidate Tosca Wohl says she was prompted to run by concerns about transparency. Data centers have become an issue in races around the state, with some candidates supporting moratoriums or additional regulations.

We have this ridiculously big idea in front of us and a tool to make it happen, and I believe that we're going to do this.Locally controlled community investment funds can help communities keep wealth circulating at home rather than watching outside capital extract it.That is the big idea Chris Miller, founding board member and chair of the National Coalition for Community Capital, brought to this episode. Chris and I have been talking about community capital for years. What makes this moment exciting is that NC3 is moving from education and advocacy into replicable, on-the-ground fund creation.Chris described NC3 as “a decade-old overnight success.” The organization grew out of the early investment crowdfunding movement, including the passage of state-level crowdfunding exemptions like the Michigan law Chris helped champion in 2013.For years, NC3 trained communities and entrepreneurs on the promise of community capital. Then Chris had a humbling experience. After working with more than 100 Michigan communities that had used donation crowdfunding for public spaces, he expected to help many of them shift into investment crowdfunding for local businesses and real estate. Instead, only a couple of projects moved forward.That failure became insight. “It's not rocket science, but there's no ecosystem,” Chris said. “There's a very small ecosystem supporting this really radical change in how capital can flow in our communities.”That realization led NC3 to create its Community Capital Accelerator and what it now calls the Diversified Community Investment Fund. The structure uses real estate as a foundation. Once 60 percent of a fund is invested in real estate, the fund can invest in other local priorities, often businesses.NC3 has helped build funds in Rhode Island, Detroit and Petoskey, Michigan. It is working actively in four more communities, with a pipeline of 12 to 18 additional prospects. With support from Kresge, NC3 is also partnering with the International Economic Development Council to work with 21 communities.Chris's vision is rooted in local control. He warned that too many communities now depend on outside businesses whose model is to put in as little as possible and take out as much as possible.“We have to get back to the place where we again decide what happens in our communities and have the opportunity to make investments into those projects and businesses and housing so that we can reap the benefit of it,” Chris said.The goal is not just more capital. It is more democratic capital, more local ownership and more resilient communities.“We have to take a dollar into our community,” Chris said. “We have to pass it around five or six or 10 or 12 times in order to really build wealth.”tl;dr:Chris Miller and NC3 are building community investment funds that let local residents invest locally.Diversified Community Investment Funds use real estate structures to unlock broader community business investment.Chris sees extractive outside capital draining wealth from towns and wants dollars recirculating locally.NC3 has launched or developed funds in Rhode Island, Detroit and Petoskey with more coming.Naivete helps Chris pursue huge goals, move legislation quickly and keep pushing despite obstacles.How to Develop Naivete As a SuperpowerChris named his superpower with a smile: “What I've decided my superpower is now is naivete.” He explained that NC3 is pursuing “this ridiculously big idea” of putting community investment funds everywhere, adding, “I believe that we're going to do this.” To Chris, naivete is not ignorance. It is the willingness to imagine a better system before the current one gives permission. “As long as people don't keep saying this is a bad idea to us, we're going to be naive enough to imagine this happening across the country,” he said.Chris's favorite example came from Michigan in 2013. With no prior experience passing securities legislation, he helped introduce a state investment crowdfunding law in August. By December, he was in the governor's office watching it be signed. The bill passed with just one no vote across both chambers. That early success showed him that big systems could move quickly when passion, relationships and the right idea aligned. Soon after, he helped a neighboring community use the law for a microbrewery raise that filled so fast he missed the chance to invest himself.Hold a dream big enough to pull you through hard work and uncertainty.Start from genuine care for people, communities and shared opportunity.Stand up, say something and do something before you have every answer.Treat difficulty as expected, not disqualifying: say, “So what? Let's do it anyway.”Build relationships with people who share the vision and can bring skills you lack.Use early wins to prove to yourself and others that broken systems can change.Stay naive enough to believe change is possible and prepared enough to execute well.By following Chris's example and advice, you can make naivete a skill. With practice and effort, you could make it a superpower that enables you to do more good in the world.Remember, however, that research into success suggests that building on your own superpowers is more important than creating new ones or overcoming weaknesses. You do you!Guest ProfileChris Miller (he/him):Founding Board Member and Chair, National Coalition for Community CapitalAbout National Coalition for Community Capital: NC3 works to advance the Community Capital movement. This engagement of regular (retail) investors into businesses and projects in their own communities empowers citizens while it builds financial resilience and wealth for individuals and communities.Website: NC3now.orgBiographical Information: Chris Miller is chair and one of the founding board members of the National Coalition for Community Capital, a 501c3. Among NC3's goals are to empower ordinary citizens and strengthen local economies though community investment and ownership, with particular attention to wealth-building by non-accredited investors and to underserved populations and communities. Chris has been working on community, economic, and entrepreneur development in Michigan for nearly 20 years in a variety of roles, including as an appointed and elected city official, as a board member and frequent chair of a variety of community and economic development organizations, as a partner with student teams from the University of Michigan and Michigan State University, as an Innovation Fellow at the Michigan State University EDA Center for Regional and Economic Innovation, and as the City of Adrian's economic developer. During that time, in addition to securing millions of grant dollars and matching private investments, he also developed a local investor group, led a community business plan competition, and worked with local schools to implement entrepreneurship education. While working his day job in Adrian, he also introduced and championed Michigan's MILE – an investment crowdfunding exemption that served as a national model, and he currently has introduced legislation that would create a first in the nation investment incentive available to any state resident regardless of wealth. During 2023, Chris worked extensively on a new program the International Economic Development Council developed called the Economic Recovery Corps. Funded with Cares Act dollars from the Economic Development Administration, 65 ERC Fellows were awarded to 65 hosts from across the county. The Fellows will work full time with their hosts for 2.5 years addressing underserved communities in a variety of economic and community development projects. NC3 was awarded a Fellow to work in Michigan in the start-up and incubator space, adding community investors to capital required by new or expanding businesses. Over the past decade Chris has spoken across the country on the promise and future of community capital, while also working on the ground on donation and investment crowdfunding campaigns with communities and entrepreneurs. Chris is the developer and lead for NC3's Community Capital Accelerator which is now piloting NC3's Diversified Community Investment Fund in large projects in Detroit, Michigan and Cincinnati, Ohio, and expects to see the launch of funds in Rhode Island and Petoskey, Michigan in 2024. In addition, the organization is working on projects in nearly a dozen states. Today, Chris and his wife Joyce own and live in a 170-year-old downtown Adrian building where they renovated the commercial floor for The Buzz Café and Marketplace. Joyce and her business partners opened The Buzz during COVID, after an investment crowdfunding campaign which received investment from 45 investors in 7 different states. When not working on their building renovation, Chris led the team that brought PlaneWave Instruments from California to Michigan, and now serves as their Special Projects Consultant. In that role Chris serves as the primary community and education outreach lead, manages campus arts partners, and works with economic development organizations as well as State and Federal governments to secure resources for PlaneWave. From their headquarters in Michigan, PlaneWave leads the world in the design and manufacture of high-tech observatory class research telescopes.LinkedIn: linkedin.com/company/nc3nowSupport Our SponsorsOur generous sponsors make our work possible, serving impact investors, social entrepreneurs, community builders and diverse founders.

No 3 em 1 desta quinta-feira (17), o destaque foi que o Governo do atual presidente Lula (PT), anunciou o reajuste de 15% no benefício do Bolsa Família, que passou a ser de R$ 691,00. O governo negou que o reajuste tenha viés eleitoral e reforçou que a medida foi tomada com responsabilidade e que estaria inclusa no orçamento deste ano. Reportagem: Karine Hillary. O presidente do Supremo Tribunal Federal (STF) Edson Fachin adiou o julgamento sobre a condução do ministro André Mendonça no caso do Bando Master, que estava previsto para a próxima quarta-feira (23). Uma nova data para a sessão ainda não foi marcada, mas o STF prorroga a possibilidade de contornar a crise antes das eleições. Reportagem: Bruno Pinheiro. O ministro do Supremo Tribunal Federal (STF) Gilmar Mendes criticou a atuação do ministro Luiz Fux no caso do afastamento de Andrei Rodrigues, chefe-geral da Polícia Federal. Gilmar Mendes critica um suposto “ajuste prévio” por parte de membros da segunda turma, que teria ocorrido sem seu conhecimento. O ministro Gilmar Mendes criticou André Mendonça através de publicação no seu X, o antigo Twitter. O Decano afirma que Mendonça deu viés eleitoral à condução do caso do Banco Master e o chamou de “Pixuleco eleitoral”. Em resposta, Mendonça afirma que nunca transformou o plenário em “picadeiro”. O ministro do Supremo Tribunal Federal (STF) e presidente do Tribunal Superior Eleitoral (TSE) Kassio Nunes Marques afirmou em sessão do TSE que “não é preciso aumentar o tom para ser ouvido”. Um documento revelou que durante reunião para tentar reverter o tarifaço de 50% aplicado sobre os produtos brasileiros, Donald Trump teria pedido a participação de dissidentes políticos nas eleições de 2026. A afirmação foi entendida pelo governo brasileiro como uma referência ao ex-presidente Jair Bolsonaro (PL). Uma nova pesquisa da AtlasIntel/Bloomberg sobre as intenções de votos apontou o atual presidente Lula (PT) oscilando para baixo com 44,1%, e o senador Flávio Bolsonaro (PL) apresentando um aumento para 41,7%. O cenário de segundo turno entre os dois candidatos traz um empate técnico. O irmão de Jair Bolsonaro (PL), e candidato a deputado federal Renato Bolsonaro (PL) afirmou em uma visita ao ex-presidente que “Flávio não arrasta multidões”. A frase gerou uma repercussão negativa para o candidato que já havia relatado ter dificuldades para se aproximar do sobrinho. A Polícia Federal entregou a íntegra dos dados do celular de Daniel Vorcaro ao gabinete dos ministros André Mendonça e Luiz Fux. Os ministros Cristiano Zanin, Gilmar Mendes e Alexandre de Moraes já haviam tido acesso ao material, que foi usado na sessão plenária da última terça-feira (15).

New artificial intelligence tools could help doctors stop deadly superbugs before antibiotics fail.  According to new University of Houston research announced this week, Texas researchers are using computer models to predict how drug-resistant staph infections like MRSA may change.  Federal health data shows untreatable superbugs sicken over two-point-eight million Americans and kill over 35-thousand people each year. We talked about this in depth with Dr. Fred Browne of Griffin Health.Image Credit: Griffin Health

Most Americans favor clear definitions and practical dietary guidance about ultraprocessed foods over taxes, suggesting that better information is the policy change people want most Federal dietary guidelines now advise limiting highly processed foods for the first time, reflecting growing scientific concern that diets built around these products are linked to higher risks of chronic disease In a tightly controlled feeding study of 20 adults housed in a metabolic ward, those who ate ultraprocessed foods consumed about 500 more calories per day than those who ate minimally processed foods, even when the diets contained similar amounts of nutrients Learning how to identify ultraprocessed foods by reading ingredient lists instead of relying on front-of-package marketing gives you greater control over the food choices you make every day Replacing ultraprocessed foods made with vegetable oils and long ingredient lists with minimally processed foods prepared from simple ingredients is one practical step that may support your long-term health

Our first Doc! The US Government is building a pointless wall through America's last wild border. This flagrant breach of public trust begins in Big Bend and ends in your backyard. Watch the full documentary with NO ADS at https://www.rfemedia.com/or on our Patreon at https://www.patreon.com/c/ColonialOutcastsDO NOT be distracted by “the pause.” Bulldozers are tearing through protected desert, sacred grounds, and decades of federal protections along the last truly wild stretch of the US-Mexico border. “Big Bend Betrayal” goes inside the fight between local conservationists, concerned citizens, border communities and a federal government contract awarded to a major Trump donor. You will see how ludicrous this border construction is, and how it is part of a larger normalization campaign to break the protections on all public lands in the continental United States. The end goal: privatize everything. After the midterms on Nov 3rd, the assault will continue…

Special Guest: Liz Benichou (@basedinmalibu) Hosts: Matt and Olivia SHOW NOTES Tonight, Matt and Olivia examine the Fulton County dispute over roughly 315,000 early votes from the 2020 election after officials acknowledged that required poll worker signatures were missing from tabulator tapes. The viral clip argues that the certification was unlawful, raising the larger question of what the procedural failure proves and what it does not. Representative Thomas Massie introduces eight articles of impeachment against Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth, largely centered on war powers and military operations. The House then leaves Washington early, blocking the expected vote and giving both parties another fight over congressional accountability. Federal prosecutors charge Los Angeles area nonprofit figures in schemes allegedly involving millions of dollars intended for homelessness programs. Special guest Liz Benichou joins the conversation as we look at the arrests, the alleged bribes and ghost participants, and California's failure to protect public money meant for people in need. Residents of Piddington, England, stage a nonbinding vote to leave the United Kingdom in protest of plans to house migrants at a nearby military site. A local woman describes her fears about safety, government indifference, and the political backlash facing residents who speak publicly. A campus prank at Columbia asks students to support an invented fraternity while gradually describing openly antisemitic activities. The reactions raise questions about campus activism, hostility toward Jewish students, and the ethics of using deception to expose political attitudes. A viral commentary challenges arguments that excuse women's misconduct through hormones, medication, or social pressure while still demanding equal authority and recognition. The clip opens a wider debate about feminism, personal responsibility, sex differences, and cultural double standards. The Don't Unfriend Me Show is a live conservative news and political commentary podcast hosted tonight by Matt and Olivia Speer. Every weeknight, we break down the biggest stories in politics, government, culture, immigration, free speech, the economy, and current events with live audience interaction and open phone calls. Liz Benichou is the French American voice behind Based in Malibu. A real estate professional and conservative digital creator, she speaks about California politics, public safety, housing, free speech, Jewish identity, antisemitism, Israel, and the cultural differences between California and Texas.

Federal agents are reportedly now zeroing in on years of text messages exchanged between actress Hayden Panettiere and an alleged drug dealer prior to her death at an apartment in Greenville, South Carolina. As investigators search for evidence following reports that Panettiere may have taken a pill laced with fentanyl, prosecutors are pointing to federal statutes that carry severe penalties—including potential murder or mandatory minimum charges—for dealers whose drugs cause fatal overdoses. Law&Crime's Jesse Weber breaks down the developing investigation with forensic chemist Bethany Pridgen, who explains what is really inside these illicit street pills and why so many are deadly.PLEASE SUPPORT THE SHOW: Go to http://opus.pro/SIDEBAR to get a week free then 50% off for the next 3 months!HOST:Jesse Weber: https://twitter.com/jessecordweberLAW&CRIME SIDEBAR PRODUCTION:YouTube Management - Bobby SzokeVideo Editing - Michael Deininger, Christina O'Shea, & Jay CruzScript Writing & Producing - Savannah Williamson, Heather Berzak & Juliana BattagliaGuest Booking - Alyssa Fisher & Diane KayeSocial Media Management - Vanessa BeinSTAY UP-TO-DATE WITH THE LAW&CRIME NETWORK:Watch Law&Crime Network on YouTubeTV: https://bit.ly/3td2e3yWhere To Watch Law&Crime Network: https://bit.ly/3akxLK5Sign Up For Law&Crime's Daily Newsletter: https://bit.ly/LawandCrimeNewsletterRead Fascinating Articles From Law&Crime Network: https://bit.ly/3td2IqoLAW&CRIME NETWORK SOCIAL MEDIA:Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/lawandcrimeTwitter: https://twitter.com/LawCrimeNetworkFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/lawandcrimeTwitch: https://www.twitch.tv/lawandcrimenetworkTikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@lawandcrimeSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

When most federal technology leaders look at preventing cybersecurity attacks, they rarely go beyond the network. Today we are looking at a new breach vector: the resume. Patricia Titus from Abnormal AI begins the interview with a shocking story about a recently discovered exploit. In the summer of 2026, the FBI confirmed that a North Korean operative spent months working inside a federal agency as an authorized employee. Because of this incident, Titus makes the case for why the security perimeter must extend upstream to the resume. During the interview, she details how VOIP numbers are used to mask origins. Beyond that, advances in voice duplication (vishing) allow HR personnel to be duped.  Not only that, but today's AI technology allows a single actor to manage several accounts. In other words, today we have a scenario playing out where a naïve hiring manager can have several fake resumes from the same individual competing for the same position. Once a system is compromised, lateral movements are enabled to gain access to sensitive areas of the network. There are attempts to block this system, commonly called Application Tracking Systems (ATS).  Gaps in the ability of this system can be addressed by establishing a formal partnership between the cybersecurity team and the HR department.  From there, behavioral patterns can be used to detect abnormal patterns.  The conclusion is obvious; can public sector leaders effectively validate identity without relying solely on automated systems that may be deceived by high-quality synthetic data?  

The first investigators to look at Sandra Birchmore's death called it suicide the same day they found her. A twenty-three-year-old pregnant woman with a duffel bag strap around her neck tied to a closet doorknob. No autopsy yet. No phone examined. No DNA compelled from the last person captured on surveillance entering her building.Federal prosecutors allege that person was Matthew Farwell — a Stoughton detective and union president who allegedly began a physical relationship with Sandra through the department's own youth program when she was fifteen.The department behind that investigation has a record that never made national news. On-duty shakedowns. Convicted chiefs. FBI wires. A deputy chief's compromising photos emailed to every officer and spouse. A sergeant's truck killing a seventy-four-year-old — the explanation a lemon seed — acquitted and back on duty.The FBI found Farwell's DNA on the ligature. Trial starts October 5 in Boston.Listen Anywhere You Get Podcasts: https://pod.link/1655749292Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

The people closest to Mica Miller's marriage were the same people who enabled its alleged dynamics. Solid Rock Church in Myrtle Beach was JP Miller's platform and Mica Miller's community. When Mica began telling police she was being stalked, tracked, and harassed, the congregation did not rally around her. They closed ranks around JP.Mica filed police reports describing GPS surveillance, razor blades in her tires, and a man she said she was afraid of. She told friends she was living in an invisible cage. On April 27, 2024, she was found dead at Lumber River State Park in North Carolina. Her death was ruled a suicide. She had served JP with divorce papers two days earlier. She was 30 years old.JP Miller preached at her memorial service. He spoke about her body from the pulpit. Witnesses called it possessive and chilling.Federal prosecutors have charged JP Miller with cyberstalking Mica and making false statements to investigators. The indictment alleges he contacted her more than 50 times in a single day. He has pleaded not guilty and denied all allegations.Former FBI Special Agent Robin Dreeke examines how a congregation becomes complicit in a pattern of coercive control, what drives community members to side with a charismatic leader over the person asking for help, and what the behavioral markers in this case reveal about the psychology of institutional failure.Listen Anywhere You Get Podcasts: https://pod.link/1655749292Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Gavin Newsom's privately funded travel, personal expenses, donors, and the California State Protocol Foundation—requests that do not by themselves indicate that anyone named is suspected of wrongdoing; the CIA releasing 71 formerly classified presidential intelligence products showing repeated but often imprecise warnings about Osama bin Laden and al-Qaeda before the September 11 attacks, including the possibility of an explosive-packed airplane striking an American city; and President Donald Trump and House Speaker Mike Johnson arguing that overly restrictive artificial-intelligence rules could undermine America's technological position against China as industry leaders demand stronger safeguards; and much more. #rubinreport #gavinnewsom #doj #september11 #cia #billclinton #georgewbush #ai #daverubin

On the eve of the third anniversary of Scott Spivey's killing, his family filed a bombshell federal lawsuit against Horry County and 13 current and former police officers — including former Deputy Chief Brandon Strickland, former Chief Joseph Hill, and "act like a victim" Officer Damon Vescovi.  The complaint alleges a coordinated conspiracy to steer the investigation toward exonerating Weldon Boyd and Bradley Williams from the very first hours: unseized phones, returned weapons, disabled body cameras, coached witnesses, a retroactively altered on-call schedule, a wiped tablet — and, for the first time in a court filing, the allegation that officers planted drugs in Scott's truck.  Investigative journalists ⁠⁠Mandy Matney⁠⁠ and ⁠⁠⁠Liz Farrell⁠⁠ break down the full list of accusations, revisit Strickland's own recorded words about working "in the shadows," and explain why the Spivey family's fight against qualified immunity may be the battle of all battles.  Let's Dive In…
