If you ever want to understand why legacy media is hemorrhaging credibility faster than a leaky stimulus package, watch what happens when it tries to weaponize arithmetic against common sense.Recently, ABC News decided to present what it clearly believed was a jaw-dropping exposé: roughly $40 million spent to deport more than two million illegal immigrants in 2025.Cue ominous music. Cue furrowed anchor brow. Then, cue the implication that fiscal apocalypse had arrived in the shape of an ICE bus.Instead, the internet did what the internet does best. It grabbed a calculator.Forty million dollars. Two million deportations. That is about $20 per removal. Twenty dollars. You cannot Uber someone to the airport for that.And yet the presentation suggested scandal.For years, Democrats and their allies have insisted that illegal immigration is “cost-positive.” They have painted a portrait of a parallel workforce that magically expands GDP, fills labor gaps, and somehow does all this while simultaneously qualifying for means-tested benefits, subsidized education, emergency healthcare, housing assistance, and a buffet of state-level entitlements.It is a neat trick. The kind that only works if you never total the receipts.The Federation for American Immigration Reform has repeatedly estimates that illegal immigration costs American taxpayers well over $100 billion annually when federal, state, and local expenditures are included. Even if one disputes the exact number, the categories are indisputable: public education, Medicaid, emergency medical care, incarceration, infrastructure strain. These are not ideological abstractions. They are line items.Yet here comes a headline implying that $40 million is a grotesque extravagance.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

In this episode, we host Professor Simon Grima to explore why risk management is too often treated as paperwork and how it can become a genuine strategic superpower when anchored to clear objectives and stakeholder needs.  We unpack what “good” risk management looks like in practice: defining risk appetite, separating risk from uncertainty, avoiding box-ticking frameworks, and building indicators and registers that stay alive as the world changes. From challenging the "three lines of defence" to making space for observation, communication, and adaptable KPIs, this conversation offers practical insight into why organisations still get the basics wrong and how they can start doing risk management in a way that actually supports better decisions, resilience, and opportunity.Professor Simon Grima is the Dean of the Faculty of Economics, Management and Accountancy, a professor, and Head of the Department of Insurance and Risk Management at the University of Malta. Simon has served as President of the Malta Association of Risk Management (MARM) since 2023, and as President of the Malta Association of Compliance Officers (MACO) from 2013 to 2015 and from 2016 to 2018. He is also Co-Chair of the Scientific Education Committee of the Federation of European Risk Managers (FERMA) and a member of the Strategic Risk Leaders Association (SRLA).Simon's research focuses on governance, regulation and internal controls, and he has over 30 years of experience in financial services, academia and public entities. Simon acts as an independent director for financial services firms, sits on risk, compliance, procurement, investment and audit committees, and carries out duties as a compliance officer, internal auditor and risk manager.The International Risk Podcast brings you conversations with global experts, frontline practitioners, and senior decision-makers who are shaping how we understand and respond to international risk.

https://m.ebay.co.uk/sch/i.html?sid=tindogpodcast&_pgn=1&isRefine=true&_trksid=p4429486.m3561.l49496 Did Blake's death really mean the end of the fight against the evil forces of the Federation? Was the vulnerable thief Vila killed – or just wounded? What happened to the computer Orac? Would the scheming Servalan regain her old powerbase? And what of Avon himself, the unbeatable, unpredictable paranoid who had ended it all? Afterlife is Tony Attwood's brilliant continuation of the Blake's 7 story. ecorded on: May 2025 Recorded at: Home Studio Producer Peter Anghelides said: "When we released the audiobook of Paul Darrow's prequel novel Avon: A Terrible Aspect, we knew we wanted to do the same with Tony Attwood's Afterlife, because it's the other original novel from the time of the TV series that bookends the whole of Blake's 7. ""The book was first published by Target Books in 1984 – appropriately enough, a year that's long associated in literature with a dystopian world ruled over by a dictatorial leader. Four decades later, we are revisiting that world of a faceless bureaucracy cruelly directed by an uncaring supreme commander. "Following directly on from the explosive TV finale, Afterlife reveals not only the consequences for our heroes from Scorpio, but also what happened to the character most significantly absent from that story – Servalan herself. Now fans can hear these startling events brilliantly read by the familiar voice of Alistair Lock in this brand-new reading." Alistair Lock said: "This is like a wide-screen version of Blake's 7. Avon, Vila and Servalan are such iconic characters, and I've relished being able to bring them to life in this audio recording of Tony Attwood's novel. ""I've had great fun acting in audios for Big Finish set during the original stories, so it's a bit of a treat now to work on an audiobook that is set after the events of the TV series." At over seven hours long, the Big Finish audio production is a splendid tour de force by Alistair Lock, who gives each character their own voice, with passable impersonations of Avon's nasal sneer and, of course Orac's irascible tones, familiar from Lock's previous Big Finish audios... Mark Plastow's cover art has captured Avon's wary, thoughtful, appraising expression, which is so much a part of his character. It sets the tone for the whole story. Horizon (blakes7online.com)

This week's episode is a very real-life-heavy one, with winter storms, family travel chaos, sick kids, and a surprising amount of ice setting the tone. From a memorable Nashville trip and pop culture check-ins to a passionate Star Trek defense and thoughtful sci-fi discussion, we settle in for a conversational episode that leans into where everyone's headspace actually is this week. REAL LIFE  Devon braved a winter storm while hosting family, with Nashville serving as the central meetup point. The group stayed in a four-story Airbnb packed with fun things to do, except for the roof, which was completely covered in ice. There was ice everywhere. This led to discussions about boil notices, what they actually mean, and whether a boil notice might have contributed to a house full of sick kids. Despite the chaos, Devon highlights the Grand Ole Opry and the Gaylord Resort, noting that it would be awesome to visit the resort someday without kids. Steven revisits Cowboy Bebop, comparing the anime to the Netflix live-action adaptation and confirming once again that the live-action version was a huge miss. On the positive side, A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms has been a solid and enjoyable watch. Ben declares that Starfleet Academy episode 1x04 is peak Star Trek and insists that listeners should watch episode four and only episode four if nothing else. He recaps the episode, focusing on Federation and Klingon ethics around survival and why this episode delivers exactly what he wants from Star Trek. This Facebook post sparked part of the discussion: https://www.facebook.com/28601265/posts/pfbid02D298Wi45gN3cZd8S4GMS7ypkdj7ja5zsHSQKwahiZ2eVQzyV7sApm6Fu46Z8X9fFl/?app=fbl Ben also continues praising the Star Trek comic The Last Starship, describing it as noir, heartbreaking, and packed with big ideas, including Earth seceding from the Federation, a clone of Kirk, and a Borg Queen engineer. FUTURE OR NOW None this week. Too much real life. Too much talky talky. BOOK CLUB  This week's story: The Song of a Non-Human Intelligence By Mical Garcia (Jan 12, 2026) https://strangehorizons.com/wordpress/fiction/the-song-of-a-non-human-intelligence/ The story explores communication between cetacean intelligences and the concept of hope, defined as waiting until home feels safe again. Ben and Devon both enjoyed the story, with Devon wanting more. Steven found it a bit dry but still appreciated the world-building. Devon also discusses Children of Time by Adrian Tchaikovsky, connecting its themes to the episode's discussion of non-human intelligence.

Anika and Liz take their podiums to discuss Star Trek: Starfleet Academy's "Vox In Excelso". But there's not much debate to be had, because we agree it's very good!  Liz, a former debate kid, has a lot of feelings about this episode (and also about how debate bros have ruined the fine art of having a structured argument) We don't need Star Trek: United because we already have SFA Caleb is critical of the Federation, but he also embodies its values, both the humanistic and paternalistic tendencies Is this an allegory for the queer experience, or is Jay-Den literally gay? And if he is not, we will be demanding compensation for queerbaiting.  "Actually, your dad abandoned you because he was supporting you" feels like Worf Parenting Apologia, but also, Lura clearly comes from a happy family and cannot imagine anything else Klingons are climate refugees A lot of YA is about the fantasy of teens having power; this is about the fantasy of adults respecting teens but taking responsibility for fixing the world Are we meant to be shipping Darem/Jay-Den? Because we think Darem is shipping it… Building a love interest for Captain Ake (when your brain was rewired by Picard/Crusher at a formative age)

Do you hear the siren song of synergy?That means we've got a brand new Star Trek show on the horizon and Miles and Charlie want in. With Star Trek: Starfleet Academy on the horizon, our brave lads are going to squeeze back into their school uniforms and try to remember how school works as they approach three episodes of Star Trek which deal with students at SFA. In ‘The First Duty,' Wesley ‘THE BOY' Crusher gets in with a guy who looks nothing like Tom Paris and is really too invested in being with the cool kids for someone who helped saved the galaxy at least three times. Then, Jake and Nog end up on a ship with a bunch of cadets forced to grow up too fast in ‘The Valiant' and Nog drinks the kool-aid of a wanna be Kurtz just out of short trousers. Then we head into the 32nd Century as Tilly and Adira have to debate what's worse, dealing with energy absorbing creatures on an ice-planet or dealing with a bunch of angsty kids with emotional baggage? Oh, and Michael Burnham helps save the Federation. Again. Don't forget to do your homework!EPISODES DISCUSSED: ‘The First Duty' (6:50), ‘The Valiant' (35:42) and ‘All is Possible' (01:01:08)TALKING POINTS: Grange Hill, the novels of John Darnielle, Mario Galaxy, Frollo from Disney's Hunchback never gets invited to Villain hangouts, Wesley Crusher never pulled, Nick Locarno vs. Tom Paris, the two types of Starfleet Academy students, the absence of Wesley's Mum, ‘The First Duty' being the inverse of the typical Wesley Crusher plot, Worf's son Alex isn't allowed on the bridge, Nog and Worf are incredibly very similar characters, Miles gets to talk about both one of his favourite anime Mobile Suit Gundam AND his favourite novel Slaughterhouse 5, the illusion of glory in war, bye-bye Tilly, damn covid-lockdown-inspired emotional baggage, our honest feelings about the upcoming Starfleet Academy show, Michael Burnham has to do something every episode, why is David Cronenberg NOT the villain?PEDANTS CORNER: Charlie has started playing Mario 2: The Lost Levels, the Genesis music video Miles can't remember is ‘I Can't Dance' by Genesis.

Tonight, on The Panel, Wallace Chapman is joined by panellists Boopsie Maran and Ed McKnight. First up, GPs and nurse practitioners can now diagnose and prescribe medication for ADHD. But not everyone is convinced this is the right way to tackle the massive backlog on diagnoses. Psychologist Giselle Bahr breaks down her concerns. Then, school principals are being stripped of their ability to weigh in on the justification of absences. The Government says the approach was inconsistent and too lenient - but the president of the New Zealand Principals' Federation, Jason Miles, says it's not so straightforward.

In this episode of I Can't See You, I break down how the Ray-Ban Meta glasses became a real travel tool—from PHL to Podfest in Orlando. I used "Hey Meta, what's in front of me?" to read signs, confirm gates, navigate MCO, and find my way around the Renaissance at SeaWorld and the conference sessions. Along the way, I share a funny airport moment when people thought I was talking to them, plus the soft pretzel mission that finally paid off (pretzel braid, Apple Pay, done). I also recap Podfest highlights—AI, video workflows, and new strategies like Pinterest—while sharing where the tech nailed it and where it still annoys me.

White Canes Connect Podcast Episode 148 In episode 148 of White Canes Connect, we share the powerful General Sessions remarks of David DeNotaris from the 2025 National Federation of the Blind of Pennsylvania State Convention in Harrisburg. Speaking from a lifetime of experience, David reflects on growing up with Braille, discovering the Federation, and the profound influence of Dr. Kenneth Jernigan on his understanding of blindness and self-respect. Through humor and deeply personal stories, he explores what it truly means to believe that it is respectable to be blind—and how that belief unlocks confidence in using Braille, mobility tools, technology, and advocacy skills without apology.

Today we're breaking down Starfleet Academy, Episode 3, the episode that really tells us what kind of show this wants to be. The training wheels are off, the characters are starting to lock into focus, and the series finally leans into its core question: what does it actually mean to earn the uniform in a post-Burn, post-myth Federation?Wraslling with the finer points of the frat wars of the episode special guest Andy Price joins us. 

When the Betazed president alphas Admiral Keeps-Sending-You-Dave-Ramsey-and-Tony-Robbins-Videos during negotiations to potentially rejoin the Federation, it becomes clear he may not be there to negotiate in earnest. But after the president's daughter takes a liking to a Caleb, he may be able to save the negotiations as long as he doesn't goo everywhere first. Which dead actor is living on? How was BART rebranded? Which cadet is jacked like a WWE superstar? It's the episode that forgot everyone's name.Support the production of Greatest TrekGet a thing at podshop.biz!Sign up for our mailing list!Greatest Trek is produced by Wynde PriddySocial media is managed by Rob Adler and Bill TilleyMusic by Adam RaguseaFriends of DeSoto for: Labor | Democracy | JusticeDiscuss the show using the hashtag #GreatestTrek and find us on social media:YouTube | Facebook | X | Instagram | TikTok | Mastodon | Bluesky | ThreadsAnd check out these online communities run by FODs: Reddit | USS Hood Discord | Facebook group | Wikia | FriendsOfDeSoto.social Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.
