On this episode of Right On Radio, your host dives into a mix of breaking political news, media critique, and spiritual reflection. Opening with the show's signature Word on Word segment, the host contrasts Psalm 139:23 with Isaiah 1:18 and invites listeners to choose which scripture resonates most. The episode moves quickly into current events: a report that former President Trump plans to rebate at least $2,000 per American from tariff revenue and his proposal for 50-year mortgages — with discussion on what those moves could mean for everyday Americans, debt, and the future of the Federal Reserve. The host then turns to the noise in mainstream and alternative media, calling out what he calls a “soap opera” among high-profile conservative voices — including Tucker Carlson, Candace Owens, Megyn Kelly, Ben Shapiro, and Nick Fuentes. He assesses each figure's faith, motives, and authenticity, offers personal takes on their influence and tactics, and cautions listeners to avoid getting lost in gossip and scandal-driven content. The conversation touches on antisemitism, online propaganda, and the personal costs of speaking out. Throughout the episode, the host reflects on spiritual themes: wisdom, repentance, and what true faith looks like in public life. He encourages listeners to seek scripture, to be discerning, and to prioritize time with the Lord over following media drama. The episode closes on a hopeful note — mentioning a popular secular song's message about grace and light — and a reminder that, according to the host, a tariff rebate could mean at least $2,000 per person on the way for Americans.

JD Sharp joins Stew to discuss the infiltration of Charlie Kirk's security team by the Israeli Mossad. Svetlana Rilkoff joins Stew to discuss being raided by Health Canada and the Canadian Mounted Police for the apparent crime of treating illness with ivermectin. $200k worth of ivermectin was stolen from her by the Canadian government. Charlie Kirk was snuffed out by the same Zionist machine now propping up his widow on national TV, crying without smearing her war-paint.

Also: are trade deficits a bad thing? Can tariffs make a country rich? Should a gold standard or a competing market for money predominate?Tune in for a clear, engaging guide to understanding money's role in our economy, and why central planning fails.For more from Mike Maharrey, check out his work at moneymetals.com/news and listen to The Midweek Memo podcast.Other resources mentioned in this conversation:The Godarchy PodcastCarl Menger's The Origins of MoneyAudio Production by Podsworth Media - https://podsworth.com Use code LCI50 for 50% off your first order at Podsworth.com to clean up your voice recordings and also support LCI!Full Podsworth Ad Read BEFORE & AFTER processing:https://youtu.be/vbsOEODpQGs ★ Support this podcast ★
From the courtroom chaos surrounding Nancy Mace's explosive lawsuit to a shocking D.C. jury verdict over a Subway sandwich assault — Tara exposes the growing cracks in America's justice system and media double standards. Then, she breaks down the “job massacre” sweeping the U.S. economy — the worst October for layoffs since 2003 — and how Federal Reserve policy, AI, and political agendas are driving an unprecedented employment crisis. It's a wild ride through the week's biggest stories, from South Carolina scandal to post-American courtroom absurdity. When politics, justice, and the economy collide — truth gets messy. Nancy Mace lawsuit, South Carolina politics, DC Sandwich Man, liberal jury, post-American justice, economic crisis, Jerome Powell, job layoffs, AI automation, Federal Reserve, political double standards, Tara Show, media bias, U.S. economy In this episode, Tara and Lee unpack a chaotic news cycle that perfectly captures the state of America in 2025. First, Tara dissects the Nancy Mace lawsuit bombshell — claims of hacking, blackmail, and revenge politics wrapped in congressional immunity — and how lawsuits have become political weapons protected by speech laws. The discussion then pivots to D.C.'s “Sandwich Man” verdict, where a man was acquitted after assaulting a federal officer with a Subway sandwich, sparking outrage over selective justice and ideological juries. Finally, Tara dives into the “Job Massacre” — the worst October layoffs in over 20 years — and exposes how Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell's economic decisions and corporate reliance on AI are crushing American jobs. It's a gripping blend of political scandal, legal absurdity, and economic alarm — all through Tara's sharp, unfiltered lens.
Tara exposes a series of shocking truths—from the Wuhan lab origins of COVID-19 and government censorship, to Chinese researchers smuggling weaponized pathogens into the U.S., to the infiltration of U.S. universities by foreign agents. She also explores alarming trends in American politics, crime glorification, economic sabotage, and workforce instability. This episode is a hard-hitting examination of threats to national security, public health, and everyday American life. Lies, cover-ups, bioweapons, and a country teetering on the edge—what you're not being told. In this explosive episode, Tara unpacks multiple crises facing the United States: 1. **COVID Origins and Cover-Ups:** UNC virologist Ralph Baric briefed U.S. intelligence agencies in January 2020 that COVID-19 originated in the Wuhan military lab, yet government agencies, social media platforms, and leading officials censored and misrepresented the facts for years. 2. **Funding Controversy:** Millions in U.S. taxpayer dollars from the Pentagon and USAID were sent to the Wuhan lab, raising questions about accountability and potential complicity in the pandemic's spread. 3. **Bioweapon Smuggling:** Chinese researchers at the University of Michigan have been caught attempting to smuggle genetically modified pathogens, including weaponized blight and ringworm, threatening American agriculture and public health. 4. **Political and Social Chaos:** Tara discusses alarming trends in U.S. politics, including crime glorification, illegal immigrant candidates, extremist political aspirants, and infiltration of government and defense agencies by foreign actors. 5. **Economic Instability:** October layoffs hit a 22-year high, while Federal Reserve actions, influenced by political agendas, are affecting job growth and economic stability. 6. **Cultural and Social Shifts:** Observations on early holiday displays, side hustles, and changing societal norms reflect a nation under stress and transition. This episode blends investigative reporting, national security concerns, and social commentary, warning listeners of the hidden forces shaping America's present and future.

A federal agency that supplies budget and economic information to Congress has suffered a cybersecurity incident, reportedly at the hands of a suspected foreign party. A spokesperson for the Congressional Budget Office (CBO) acknowledged the incident Thursday after The Washington Post reported that the office was hacked, with the attackers potentially accessing communications between lawmakers and researchers at the agency. CBO spokeswoman Caitlin Emma said: “The Congressional Budget Office has identified the security incident, has taken immediate action to contain it, and has implemented additional monitoring and new security controls to further protect the agency's systems going forward.” Congress established the office in 1974 to serve as a nonpartisan research organization for the legislative branch. Republicans took aim at the CBO this year when it assessed that a GOP tax and spending policy bill would add trillions to the national debt, prompting conservatives to criticize its conclusions. It's not unprecedented for unauthorized parties to obtain access to sensitive information from congressional offices. Hackers who broke into the Library of Congress last year were able to read email correspondence with offices on Capitol Hill. And a breach of a health insurance marketplace two years ago exposed the data of House staffers. The Trump administration's ongoing decimation of the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau has rendered the agency's overall information security program ineffective, a federal watchdog revealed Monday. In an audit of CFPB's cybersecurity program, the Federal Reserve's Office of Inspector General found that the agency is no longer keeping up with its authorizations to operate many systems, and is “using risk acceptance memorandums without a documented analysis of cybersecurity risks.” As a result of those floundering protocols, the Fed OIG said the CFPB's overall information security program has declined to level-2 maturity (defined) in fiscal 2025, down from level-4 (managed and measurable), and overall is not effective. Backsliding on these security measures can be at least partially attributed to a loss of contractor support for continuous security monitoring and testing, per the audit, as well as the mass exodus under the Trump administration of CFPB staff.

Asian equities fell after Wall Street shares declined, weighed down by concerns over stretched artificial intelligence valuations and signs of a cooling labor market. The MSCI Asia Pacific Index slipped 0.6%, led by declines in Japan, putting the gauge on track for its first drop in three weeks. US equity benchmarks dropped for the second time in three sessions with AI-related stocks such as Nvidia Corp. tumbling, while a closely watched volatility gauge spiked. We heard from Pruksa Iamthongthong, Aberdeen Investments Head of Equities Asia Pacific. She spoke to Bloomberg's Yvonne Man and David Ingles.Plus - Tesla Inc. shareholders approved a $1 trillion compensation package for Chief Executive Officer Elon Musk, the largest payout ever awarded to a corporate leader. The pay agreement clears a path for Musk, the world's richest person, to become the first-ever trillionaire and expand his stake in Tesla to 25% or more over the next decade. To achieve the full payout, he'll have to deliver on targets to significantly expand Tesla's market value, revive its flagging car business and get the fledgling robotaxi and Optimus robotics efforts off the ground.And in the US, volatility lashed Wall Street, with strong evidence of a cooling labor market pushing high-valuation tech stocks and crypto to big losses while bonds rallied on bets the Federal Reserve will cut rates.

Discussion shifts to the overwhelming US military buildup near Venezuela, which might force Maduro's departure by damaging his credibility, possibly via anti-narcotics action. The interview concludes by analyzing the anticlimactic Trump-Xi meeting, attributing the lack of confrontation to Xi Jinping's significantly weakened position due to China's shattered economy and internal power struggles. 1245-100 AM Nigeria, Venezuela Intervention, and China Power Struggles.

The Federal Reserve just ended quantitative tightening and quietly injected $29 billion into US banks — the largest since 2020. This signals a deeper liquidity crisis threatening your deposits, your savings, and the value of the dollar itself.
Former Kansas City Fed President Esther George is joined by Bloomberg's Jonathan Ferro and Lisa Abramowicz to discuss the lack of consensus from within the Federal Reserve in recent days.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
This episode originally aired in March of 2025, shortly after the Federal Reserve chose to leave interest rates unchanged despite pressure from President Trump to lower them. Greg McBride from Bankrate.com comments on how the decision affects us.
Per 1 december stopt de Federal Reserve met het verminderen van beleggingen in obligaties. Oftewel: de Amerikaanse centrale bank brengt de kwantitatieve geldverruiming – quantitative easing – weer op gang, zegt macro-econoom Edin Mujagic. ‘Sinds 2022 waren ze bezig om dat toch een beetje ongedaan te maken: quantitative tightening. Per 1 december stoppen ze daar weer mee en dat betekent concreet dat de Fed de aflossing van de hypotheken, zo’n 20 à 30 miljard dollar per maand gaat gebruiken om Amerikaanse staatsobligaties te kopen.’ Een komen en gaan van verruimingen dus, zegt Mujagic. Daarom is het handig om een en ander even in perspectief te zetten. In 2020 was de Fed-balans vier keer zo groot als in 2008. Tussen 2020 en 2022 kwam daar nog een factor 2,5 bij en daarna is de centrale bank gaan verkrappen – het ongedaan maken van de kwantitatieve geldverruiming. ‘Zo is tussen 2022 en nu maar liefst een kwart van de balans afgesnoept. Dus om de een of andere reden gaat geld in het systeem pompen veel sneller dan geld úit het systeem halen.’ See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
Here are the main types of events that typically cause the 10-year yield to drop:Economic slowdown or recession signsWeak GDP, rising unemployment, or falling consumer spending make investors expect lower future interest rates.Example: A bad jobs report or slowing manufacturing data often pushes yields lower.Federal Reserve rate cuts (or expectations of cuts)If the Fed signals or actually cuts rates, long-term yields like the 10-year typically decline.Markets anticipate lower inflation and slower growth ahead.Financial market stress or geopolitical tensionDuring crises (wars, banking issues, political instability), investors seek safety in Treasuries — pushing prices up and yields down.Lower inflation or deflation dataWhen inflation slows more than expected, the “real” return on Treasuries looks more attractive, bringing yields down.Dovish Fed comments or data suggesting easing aheadEven before actual rate cuts, if the Fed hints it might ease policy, yields often fall in anticipation.tune in and learn https://www.ddamortgage.com/blogdidier malagies nmls#212566dda mortgage nmls#324329 Support the show
Economic Policy and China Trade. Elizabeth Peek discusses the US economy, where Treasury Secretary Bessent asserts that housing is in recession due to high Federal Reserve rates. Peek argues that lower rates are needed to "unstick" the housing market. The Fed, led by Jay Powell, is fixated on inflation, though Peek questions his rationale regarding tariffs and labor demand. The conversation also covers the Trump-Xi meeting, which was anticlimactic, postponing confrontation for a year. Key concessions included China relenting on rare earth exports and American soybean boycotts. FIVE POINTS

Six years of nonstop death jabs and the American people finally see the blood on Big Pharma's hands 56% now scream it was mass slaughter while embalmer freeways of white fibrous clots clog the veins of the poisoned, as confirmed by Thomas Haviland's global embalmer surveys. The same demonic architects of Operation Warp Speed and Cuomo's death camp nursing homes still walk free, but the reckoning is here and these genocidal butchers will swing for their crimes against humanity. The American Dream is a rotting corpse, gutted by the same Jewish financial cabal that's owned this country since 1913. Michelle McKee lived it, lost it, and now she's naming the enemy because every road of misery leads straight to the synagogue of Satan. The fake Gaza ceasefire is a total scam cooked up by Kushner and his Zionist daddy in law to green light Israel's endless land theft and Palestinian slaughter.

Bitcoin faces renewed selling pressure as whales unload over $4.5 billion in positions, triggering massive liquidations across crypto markets. At the same time, the Federal Reserve injected $50 billion into the U.S. economy to prevent a potential credit crunch, highlighting growing financial instability. With Bitcoin sliding toward key support near $100K and risk assets turning lower, investors are asking whether this marks the start of a deeper correction or a setup for the next major move.
The Federal Reserve cut interest rates and ended balance sheet reduction at its last meeting despite acknowledging persistent inflation. This doesn't make sense in a sane world. But we don't live in a sane world. In this episode of the Midweek Memo podcast, Mike Maharrey tries to make sense of the insanity. He says that the key to understanding the Fed's moves is recognizing that inflation is the plan. The central bank doesn't want to tackle inflation. It just wants to keep it at a level that doesn't make you too angry. In fact, the government needs inflation to support its borrowing and spending problem. Mike argues that this isn't a policy you can vote away. You can only take steps to minimize its impact on your life.

In the latest episode of Facts vs. Feelings, Ryan Detrick, Chief Market Strategist, and Sonu Varghese, VP, Global Macro Strategist, discuss the powerful role of momentum in today's markets and what investors should expect heading into year-end. They examine how the S&P 500's impressive rally fits into historical context, why tech leadership remains dominant, and how market breadth and global participation are evolving. The conversation also explores the impact of Federal Reserve policy shifts, cooling trade tensions, and the surprising resilience of the U.S. economy.Key TakeawaysHistoric Market Strength: The S&P 500 has gained nearly 23% over the past six months, placing this move in the top 4% of all six-month returns. History shows that strong momentum often leads to continued upside in the following year.Tech-Driven Leadership: The recent rally has been powered largely by technology. The Magnificent Seven continue to dominate, with the S&P 500 Technology Index up 44% over six months. Global Momentum: It's not just the U.S.—developed and emerging markets are rallying too. South Korea, Taiwan, and China are leading EM gains, while countries like South Africa, Mexico, and Japan also show strong performance.Economic Resilience: Despite talk of a “K-shaped” economy, U.S. GDP growth remains near 2%. Earnings are rising across sectors, with 80% of companies beating on both revenue and profits.Trade Tensions Easing: The U.S.–China trade war appears to be cooling, with both sides de-escalating tariffs and trade restrictions. China is resuming soybean purchases and suspending certain export controls, while the U.S. has paused new restrictions—reducing a major geopolitical headwind.Fed's Delicate Balance: The Federal Reserve cut rates again, bringing total cuts to 150 basis points since the cycle's peak. While inflation remains a concern for some members, Powell's comments suggested a dovish tone, emphasizing that inflation pressures are manageable and economic momentum remains intact.Connect with Ryan:• LinkedIn: Ryan Detrick• X: @ryandetrickConnect with Sonu:• LinkedIn: Sonu Varghese• X: @sonusvarghese Questions about the show?

When the US Federal Reserve reduced its interest rate by a quarter percentage point last week, establishing the target range at 3.75-4 percent, it was not a bold stimulus but rather a cautious act of navigation. A prolonged government shutdown has left the Fed operating with limited information on inflation and jobs. For India, this development influences the global cost of capital, investor behaviour, and the overall pace of trade. The rate cut was determined under extraordinary conditions. US GDP grew at an annualised rate of 3.8 percent in the second quarter, but more recent indicators suggest a cooling trend. Unemployment has risen to 4.3 percent, job creation has decelerated, and consumer spending is stabilising. Although inflation has decreased to approximately 3 percent year-on-year, it still exceeds the Federal Reserve's 2 per cent target. Typically, policymakers would review fresh September data before making decisions, but since those reports never came, the Federal Reserve had to rely on August data.

The cash squeeze in wholesale money markets that we've been following got a whole more exciting on Friday, and now we have the full set of numbers on it. Interest rates soared the most since 2020 further proving the Federal Reserve's program which is supposed to keep this from happening doesn't keep it from happening. Imagine my shock. We also know that there were plenty of spare reserves available, too. And with more borrowing from the Fed again this morning so far, we have to consider the question whether this ongoing and escalating tightness is pointing to something bigger.

Strategy (MSTR) just reported Q3 earnings, and this episode breaks down the most important developments shaping the future of the world's first and largest bitcoin treasury company. Host Pierre Rochard and producer Spencer Nichols dive into the numbers, the updated capital strategy, and how the “BTC Refinery Model” is redefining corporate balance sheets in the Bitcoin era.We explore why MSTR raised the STRC dividend to 10.5% at the same time the Federal Reserve is cutting rates, and what this counter-cyclical move signals about Strategy's ambitions. The discussion also clarifies the difference between leverage and amplification—a point many investors still misunderstand—and why preferred equity has become the cornerstone of Saylor's approach to harnessing bitcoin's volatility for equity holders rather than fighting it. And finally, they discuss the B- credit rating conferred to Strategy by S&P, and what this means for the future of bitcoin-backed credit instruments.

Donate (no account necessary) | Subscribe (account required) Join Bryan Dean Wright, former CIA Operations Officer, as he dives into today's top stories shaping America and the world. In this Monday Headline Brief of The Wright Report, Bryan covers growing fears of a U.S. recession, the worsening government shutdown, surging Obamacare costs, and the rise of socialist influence inside the Democratic Party. We'll also look abroad at Trump's threats of military strikes in Africa, new drone warfare milestones in Australia, and the dangers of an increasingly "angry AI." Recession Warnings and the Fed's Mistake: Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent says parts of the U.S. economy are already in recession, with housing frozen and working-class families crushed by debt. White House officials blame the Federal Reserve for keeping interest rates too high for too long, risking a broader economic downturn. Shutdown Fallout and Court Fights: Eighty percent of air traffic controllers skipped work in New York as the shutdown drags on, grounding flights nationwide. A federal judge ordered Trump's team to release $5 billion in emergency food stamp funds, even as the administration warns the U.S. debt just hit $38 trillion. Obamacare Premiums Skyrocket: ABC News reports health insurance rates are soaring 50 percent or more, with one listener paying $890 a month for reduced coverage. Democrats are using the crisis to demand new subsidies, while Republicans insist the real issue is states using Medicaid to cover illegal immigrants. Obama's Socialist Endorsements: Barack Obama is campaigning for socialist Zohran Mamdani in New York, a candidate tied to the Democratic Socialists of America — a group openly declaring plans to "radicalize high schoolers" and take over the Democratic Party. Bryan warns the movement is gaining ground with help from within. Trump Threatens Military Strikes in Nigeria: The President says the U.S. may take direct action to stop Islamic militants killing Christians in northern Nigeria, calling the attacks "an existential threat to faith."

In 1913, the United States created its third national bank. Unlike the previous two, this bank was organized in a completely different manner. It was organized differently, in an effort to avoid the problems of the previous national banks. Also, unlike the previous national banks, the creation of the Federal Reserve was not done openly and subject to public debate. It was created using secrets and subterfuge. Learn more about the creation of the Federal Reserve and the very odd way it was created on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.

Stephen Miran isn’t auditioning to run the Federal Reserve. He’s auditioning to destroy it. Like so many in Trump’s sphere, Miran was selected for his ability to appear like he’s doing the right thing and making the tough choices. In reality, he exists to destroy the thing he’s spent his entire life trying to be a part of. Miran is a highly educated and competent analyst whose academic veneer and projection of empathy belie his craven desire for power and to eradicate the independence of the Fed and place it under direct authority and control of the president. And make no mistake, when Jerome Powell’s term is up, this is who will be in charge of the Fed.

According to Bix Weir of Road to Roota, the United States has been on a covert path back to the constitutional gold and silver standard since the 1981 Gold Commission, a secret initiative under Ronald Reagan to dismantle the fiat money scam and restore sound money as mandated by the Constitution. Weir decodes the Federal Reserve's cryptic 1981 comic "Wishes and Rainbows," re-released in 2007, as a roadmap—"The Road to Roota"—outlining the transition from "Grey Flowers" (fiat currency) to "Colorland" (a redeemable gold-backed system), complete with hidden U.S. gold reserves in places like the Grand Canyon to fuel the reset. He argues this plan accelerates under figures like Donald Trump, who is leveraging massive undisclosed gold stashes to collapse the manipulated markets and implement a new gold/silver coin standard via the U.S. Mint, where silver could skyrocket to match gold at a 1:1 ratio, freeing Americans from endless inflation and debt slavery. Central to this liberation is abolishing the Federal Reserve, the "BIG player" Weir identifies as the root of global economic hatred toward the West, with its computer-driven manipulations since Alan Greenspan's era propping up a dying fiat blip; Trump, per Weir, is crashing the [CB] system through engineered chaos, paving the way for constitutional money where every citizen can redeem notes for physical gold and silver, ending the Fed's reign and restoring true freedom. Weir's scathing exposés paint JP Morgan Chase as the epicenter of silver market rigging, with CEO Jamie Dimon—derisively dubbed "Jamie Demon" for his demonic role in financial crimes—leading a cabal that has suppressed silver prices through massive COMEX shorts and derivative slams, all while cashing out ahead of the inevitable squeeze that could drain their "house silver" vaults dry. This manipulation ties directly to Epstein Island scandals, where Weir reveals JP Morgan and Deutsche Bank facilitated the financier's criminal network, enabling cash flows for trafficking that intertwined elite bankers like Dimon with the island's depravities; exposing Epstein's client list, including Dimon's inner circle, would unleash uncontrollable silver demand as the rigged system's veils tear away, crushing the bullion banks and vindicating Weir's long-warned "Silver Alert" for a monetary rebellion.
The Federal Reserve just cut rates by another 0.25%, but mortgage rates went…up? This is now the fourth time the Fed has lowered its federal funds rate, and mortgage rates have defied them. It's becoming clearer than ever before: real estate investors cannot rely on the Fed to save them. If you're waiting for mortgage rates to get back in the mid-to-low 5% range, you might be waiting for a while. But you don't have to. Dave (and the guests on this show) are actively buying real estate deals, building their portfolios, and increasing their cash flow, all while interest rates are high. You can do it too—no matter what the Fed decides. In fact, right now may be a low-rate period that future investors will wish they could return to. There are six things you can do right now to lock in great real estate deals, even with rates rising higher. This is the opportunity for investors. Average homebuyers are sitting on the sidelines, many investors are still scared to jump back in, all while sellers are lowering prices, offering concessions, and willing to negotiate. You wanted a time to get better deals? This is it, and the Fed's moves are only giving you more control. In This Episode We Cover The Fed rate cut update and why mortgage rates went up after the announcement The real reason why the Fed's cuts aren't moving mortgage rates lower Six ways to take advantage of a high-rate, lower-competition housing market The “relatively affordable” pockets of the country that are seeing rising housing demand Why real estate forecasters could be dead wrong and rates could rise over the next few years And So Much More!
