   It was a tough day for transgenders in Kansas and Missouri and the freakout is pretty funny to watch.  About 1000 Kansans may have to change one letter on their drivers license under a new law that is in place but won't really even be enforced... at least for a while.  My god, what has the world come to.  So triggering.  And in Missouri, the House passes a law that the overwhelming majority of Americans support as they aim to make it illegal for boys to play in girls sports.  Oh, the humanity.    A St. Louis tv station reports one of the greatest stories every as it appears most Missouri police departments are working with ICE and turning over illegals when they commit a crime.  Wait until you hear what the reporter learned about incentives for those departments to cooperate.    The World Cup has a Mexico problem as there are 22 mass graves in and around Guadalajara.  In the first four they've dug out, they have found over 500 body bags from cartel violence.  There are 130,000 "disappeared" people in Mexico and ALL are presumed dead at the hands of cartels.  Are they really playing soccer there?    Jac Caglione and Carter Jensen have a monster day for the Royals in Arizona.  If these guys are good this year.... watch out.  The Royals will be hard to beat.    Hall of Fame golfer Tom Watson and the staff at www.watsonlinks.org announce the cities and states this program will be offered to junior golfers has tripled... amazing.      A golfer at a tournament in South Africa nearly dies... but not on the course.  You have to hear this crazy story of a two time winner that is lucky to be alive.    And our Final Final is quite a joke from the folks at the Tampa airport.

Anna Kepner's sixteen-year-old stepbrother has been charged with federal homicide. The FBI won't confirm it. The DOJ won't comment. But a custody battle just exposed everything.A February 20th filing in Brevard County, Florida, revealed the teenager was charged on February 3rd, 2026, by the U.S. Attorney for the Southern District of Florida in connection with Anna's death aboard the Carnival Horizon. The eighteen-year-old was found asphyxiated under a bed in the cabin they shared — wrapped in a blanket, covered with life vests.The federal case is sealed. Juvenile proceedings are closed to the public. But the suspect's divorced parents are fighting over custody of their nine-year-old daughter, and their court filings have become the only window into what's actually happening.His biological father is funding his defense. His biological mother — married to Anna's father — is publicly calling for accountability. The family expelled him from their home the day they returned from the cruise. Allegations from Anna's ex-boyfriend describe obsession, warning signs, and a recommendation for separate rooms that was overruled.This episode breaks down what the charges mean, how a juvenile gets tried as an adult under federal law, and why this case may stay sealed forever.Join Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

AP correspondent Ed Donahue reports on gunshots at a border crossing to the north.

Federal prosecutors are fiercely defending Sean "Diddy" Combs' July 2025 conviction on two counts of violating the Mann Act by transporting individuals across state lines for prostitution, urging the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Second Circuit to uphold his 50-month prison sentence. MusicTimes reports that in a recent appellate brief, government attorneys dismantled Diddy's claim of being an amateur adult film producer, arguing his actions were driven by coercion and immediate sexual gratification rather than legitimate business. They cited testimony from singer Cassie Ventura, whom Combs allegedly threatened during a flight from France to New York with releasing intimate videos unless she joined "Freak Offs" upon landing, and from a woman known as Jane, who faced threats of homelessness after wanting to end "Hotel Nights."HotNewHipHop details how prosecutors highlighted the lack of advance notice or consent for filming, with one escort describing feeling humiliated by unauthorized recordings that Combs made only once or twice. Currently serving time at FCI Fort Dix in New Jersey since his October 2025 sentencing—which also includes five years supervised release and a $500,000 fine—Combs, now 55, will face oral arguments on April 9, 2026, in Lower Manhattan. His defense contends Judge Arun Subramanian improperly factored in acquitted charges, but feds insist the sentence is justified.Meanwhile, reports from unverified sources swirl about Diddy selling off an $800 million empire spanning Bad Boy Records, Sean John fashion, and media ventures, framing it as strategic liquidity amid his legal woes. A fresh lawsuit alleges Combs invoked Tupac Shakur's murder to silence a rape accuser, per AOL, while childhood claims surface of his mother beating him young.These developments keep the spotlight on the rap mogul's high-stakes appeal and fractured legacy.Thanks for tuning in, listeners—come back next week for more.

Nancy Guthrie has been missing since January 31, and investigators believe she was abducted from her Tucson home in the early hours of February 1. The reward is now over $200,000 thanks to private donors, the sheriff says he believes she's still nearby, and the FBI is clearly running border coordination protocols even while officials say there's no evidence she was taken into Mexico. Let's talk about how public messaging can help or hurt a case, why the “FBI vs Sheriff” narrative is distracting even if the working teams are still collaborating and what some people are saying about the negative impact social media is playing in the case. Why is TMZ finally saying they aren't going to share anything else the supposed kidnappers are telling them. #NancyGuthrie #SavannahGuthrie #ChrisNanos #PCSD #PimaCounty #Tucson #Arizona #CatalinaFoothills #FBI #FBIPhoenix #88CRIME #AdelitaGrijalva #JasonPack #FoxNews #LATimes #People #TMZ #HarveyLevin #NBCNews #Reuters #Mexico #Sonora #Nogales #CODIS #DNA #GenealogyDNA #Pacemaker #SignalSniffer #Polygraph #AZ511 #Esri #GIS #ArcGIS #Mapping #CrimeMapping========================================https://gamutpodcasts.com/show/gardensofevilinsidethezionsocietycult/======================================== 20% OFF Newspapers.comhttps://www.newspapers.com/go/podcast/?ref=profilingevil?xid=8877&utm_source=ProfilingEvilPodcast&utm_medium=podcst&utm_campaign=ProfilingEvil26========================================Email your questions to: ProfilingEvil@gmail.com========================================

Except for Zorro and Batman, people who put on masks to hide their identity when going to work are rarely up to any good.And as Americans learned decades ago when Ku Klux Klanners covered themselves from head to toe, the bigger the mask, the greater the evil hiding behind it. Which brings us full circle to “Operation Metro Surge.”OMS is the muy macho PR slogan for the Republican Party's militaristic invasions of Chicago, Los Angeles, Minneapolis, and other American cities they hate. Deploying ICE and other bastions of authoritarian power, thousands of massively armed federal belligerents in full assault gear have been rampaging through peaceful neighborhoods in violent and murderous mass sweeps.This is an un-American attack by America's own government on America's founding ideals of liberty and openness. The defining symbol of this government repression is that its forces are all hiding behind full-face masks.Of course, if I was doing some of the stuff ICE commandos are doing, I'd want to cover my face, too. But, like the Klan, masking up the oppressors is not merely about cloaking their personal shame — it's an added ploy by the perpetrators to terrify anyone who might dare to stand up to them.As usual, though, the authoritarian powers misunderstood America and underestimated the deeply rebellious nature of our gutsy, grassroots people. Some 30,000 volunteers in Minneapolis, for example, have become trained “constitutional observers” to police the police, and a citywide “whistle brigade” rushes like Paul Revere to alert neighbors when ICE agents invade their neighborhoods.Their ethic of neighbors-helping-neighbors recognizes their power to “do what's right.” It's the best of America standing up to confront the worst.Do something!Our friends at the Working Families Party are leading the charge to pressure Democrats to vote NO on any DHS bill that does not work to stop ICE's reckless attacks. You can text “ICE OUT” to 30403 or dial 833-636-3260 to call your Senators. Need a sample script? Here you go:When you connect, say your name and where you live to show that you're a constituent. Then, you could say something like:“ICE's reckless and illegal attacks on our communities must be stopped. But instead of ending and investigating ICE's abuses, the DHS spending bill would empower this rogue agency to terrorize and kill even more of our neighbors. As your constituent, I urge you to vote against the DHS funding bill and stand up to ICE.”Here's a whole set of actions they've compiled to help direct your energy.Jim Hightower's Lowdown is a reader-supported publication.

On Chicago's Southwest and East sides, the presence of federal agents lingers long after they left town. The mental health of many communities needs attention. Businesses are still struggling to bring back customers. Chicago's journalists are processing their exhaustive coverage of people taken, and teargas deployed.On today's Block Club Chicago podcast, reporter Francia Garcia Hernandez, details the long lasting impact of Operation Midway blitz, and how the city is responding.Host - Jon HansenReporter - Francia Garcia HernandezRead More Here Want to donate to our non-profit newsroom? CLICK HEREWho we areBlock Club Chicago is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit news organization dedicated to delivering reliable, relevant and nonpartisan coverage of Chicago's diverse neighborhoods. We believe all neighborhoods deserve to be covered in a meaningful way.We amplify positive stories, cover development and local school council meetings and serve as watchdogs in neighborhoods often ostracized by traditional news media.Ground-level coverageOur neighborhood-based reporters don't parachute in once to cover a story. They are in the neighborhoods they cover every day building relationships over time with neighbors. We believe this ground-level approach not only builds community but leads to a more accurate portrayal of a neighborhood.Stories that matter to you — every daySince our launch seven years ago, we've published more than 30,000 stories from the neighborhoods, covered hundreds of community meetings and send daily and neighborhood newsletters to more than 150,000 Chicagoans. We've built this loyalty by proving to folks we are not only covering their neighborhoods, we are a part of them. Some of us have internalized the national media's narrative of a broken Chicago. We aim to change that by celebrating our neighborhoods and chronicling the resilience of the people who fight every day to make Chicago a better place for all.

David Waldman is back! And, it's Tuesday! RIP Jesse Jackson. RIP Robert Duvall! CBS let Steven Colbert interview James Talarico, they just don't don't want you to see the interview ​​. ICE is big business. The Feds paid $128.5 million for new ICE facility to pack in 10,000 detainees, that only 2 years ago sold for $90 million less. Then there's the Noem-Lewandowski Flying Love Palace with his and her's bidets and a wet bar, which could transport deportees in a pinch, honest! Yes, it is a new golden age for ICE, with the exception of the detainees and the employees. Epstein connections are about as horrible as Trump connections. At least in terms of losing your job in Europe. Here in the Good Ol' US of A, being a Trump-connected crackpot means you're currently having the time of your life proclaiming America a communist hellhole.

Modern medicine treats symptoms. Dr. Jingduan “J.D.” Yangsays it's ignoring the whole human being.In this week's conversation, we break down how to Make America Health Again with theA.C.E.S. model— Anatomy, Chemistry, Energy, and Soul — and why America's “healthcare system” isn't designed to make you healthy at all.Is medical insurance really just “sick care”? Why are drugs and procedures covered — but nutrition, lifestyle, and prevention aren't? Are we fixing the car while ignoring the driver?Dr. Yang challenges the entire framework of Western medicine and calls for a return to personal responsibility, spiritual health, and true whole-person care.If you think the system is broken — this episode explains why.Dr. Jingduan Yang is an author, medical practitioner, neurologist, and board certified psychiatrist.

On Friday's "Drivetime with DeRusha".... 3pm: More lies from the Feds are revealed - do you trust anything they say? Then, how you can get some last minute Valentine's love at Bachman's! 4pm: Jason host another exciting edition of Card DeSharks. Then he talks with Jeff Mielke from Lee County about why you should consider a vacation to Fort Myers, where the show will be next week. 5pm: On the "DeRush-Hour" Jason goes "In Depth" with attorney Rob Doar - is he surprised by the spike in gun sales during the ICE surge? Then our Gen Z movie reviewer Charlie Oakes tells you if "Wuthering Heights" is worth your money.

Adrian reports Alex to HR over the “hug quota.” The Epstein rabbit hole deepened and exposes unthinkable evil, but few people noticed because of a very convenient kidnapping and a Bad Bunny. Feds release Israeli national who ran bio labs with unknown dangerous compounds in houses owned by the Chinese.  Top AI researchers keep warning “world is in peril,” while SB ad tell you not to worry about it.

Crystal asks, how does a whole team fail upward so successfully? When you take six years to investigate a simple question, and then the answer is either wrong or "unexplained," naturally the Feds give you a promotion and a raise.

The Epstein files exposed what he gifted to powerful people; sometimes, the gift was as simple as an Apple Watch. Plus, Gov. Tim Walz wants federal dollars to repair the damage caused by Minnesota rioters.  Visit the Howie Carr Radio Network website to access columns, podcasts, and other exclusive content.

It's been an unusually warm and dry winter across the west, and that's bad news for the seven states and 40 million people that rely on water from the Colorado River. The water flowing into the river from snowmelt and rain is dwindling, partly because of climate change. The basin's two major reservoirs are at historic lows, and without a sudden influx of snowstorms, streamflow forecasts for the coming year aren't looking good. That adds stress to an already drought-stricken region where negotiations on how to share the river's water in the future are tense and stalled out.  “We're at a point where we have to make some serious long-term adjustment of expectations. In other words, people need to agree to take a lot less water than they've been counting on. And that is always really hard when water is scarce,” says Sarah Porter, director of the Kyl Center for Water Policy at Arizona State University. The federal government has given states a deadline of Feb. 14th to reach an agreement, after which the Bureau of Reclamation commissioner could divvy up the water between states as it deems fit. It's already released its draft environmental impact statement with possible alternatives. What's led to this point of crisis? What is keeping states from reaching agreement? And what will the cities, farmers and industries that depend on the river do as climate change leads to a lower volume of water in an increasingly hotter and drier future?   Episode Guests: Sarah Porter, Director, Kyl Center for Water Policy, Arizona State University For show notes and related links, visit https://www.climateone.org/podcasts ********** Support Climate One by going ad-free!

In breaking news, Fulton County, Georgia, is fighting back against Trump's attempt to federalize elections and seize all of their 2020 voter data in 656 boxes of material, in a new federal court lawsuit and filing to stop the Feds from searching through any of their data. Popok reports that Fulton County sees this as a struggle to protect the Constitution, and he connects the dots between Ed Martin, Sydney Powell, Tulsi Gabbard, and the investigation being run out of the Missouri US Attorney's Office and not Georgia.
