It's Hump Day on the Majority Report On today's program: Ahead of Trump's rally in the Poconos in Pennsylvania, News Nation talk to locals on their thoughts on Trump's economy and the results were not good for the president. Trump kicks off his "Affordability Messaging" tour and spends most of his time at the podium complaining about immigrants and replaying his old hits but with much less energy and way fewer people in the audience. Independent journalist, Kalena Thomhave joins Sam to discuss her piece in Capital & Main titled, Home Care Workers Are Losing Minimum Wage Protections — and Fighting Back. Senator Bernie Sanders joins Sam and Emma for a conversation about wealth inequality and his book, Fight Oligarchy. In the Fun Half: CNN interviews Caleb Ragland, a soybean farmer relays the dire economic disaster that American farmers are facing under Donald Trump. Meanwhile, Trump announces a $12 billion bailout for farmers, funded by tariff taxes paid by Americans — a package that will almost certainly end up lining the pockets of Monsanto executives and similar agribusiness giants. Candace Owens responds to Tim Pool's rant attacking her over Charlie Kirk conspiracy theories. If you are in Kentucky or just interested check out the Bluegrass DSA All that and more.

AI needs power. A lot of power. But what happens when that power comes from 35 unpermitted gas turbines dropped into the middle of a historic Black neighborhood? In this episode, Eric sits down with Dr. Sacoby Wilson, award-winning environmental health scientist and recent Heinz Award for the Environment honoree, who's helping Boxtown in Memphis push back against Elon Musk's xAI “Colossus” data center. Dr. Wilson breaks down how data centers are becoming the newest front in environmental and energy justice, why the pollution burden keeps landing on the same communities, and what they're doing about it. We talk about “empowerment science,” community air monitoring, climate redlining, regenerative agriculture, and what it really takes to turn data into power for frontline communities. Then Eric and Kirk reconnect to unpack what this fight says about philanthropy, technology, and who gets left out of our big, shiny visions of the future.

What happens when a simple idea—men working out around a fire and following Christ—jumps across the ocean into post-Soviet Europe?In this episode, we sit down with Pro from Braveheart Tribe in Budapest, Hungary to talk about how Men's Alliance has taken root in Europe and why Hungary might become a hub for Christian men's ministry.Pro shares his story of growing up in the Netherlands, moving to Central Europe after the Iron Curtain fell, meeting his wife in Hungary, and slowly moving from career-first to ministry-first. We dig into: • The difference between Western Europe and Central Europe when it comes to faith • Why Hungary is still largely Christian while other European nations are turning secular • The rise of Islam in Europe and why we must train ambassadors for Christ • How Braveheart Tribe launched in Budapest and what MA looks like in an urban European context • Why hard workouts, cold weather, and real discomfort are essential for discipling men • How Carry the Fire apologetics training is preparing men to share and defend their faithYou'll hear how God used a doctor who had been in a Men's Alliance tribe in Alaska… moved him to Budapest… and then used that connection to help launch multiple tribes in Hungary—including Braveheart and a neighboring tribe led by “Blade Runner.”If you've ever wondered what God is doing among men outside the U.S., or how to reach a culture that's forgotten its Christian roots, this conversation will fire you up and give you a bigger vision for Men's Alliance.Follow Men's AllianceInstagram - https://www.instagram.com/mensalliancetribe/Facebook - https://www.facebook.com/mensalliancetribeTiktok - https://www.tiktok.com/@mensalliancetribeWebsite - https://www.mensalliancetribe.com/Explore Battlefield Coaching today and find yourself a Coach with experience overcoming a battle you are currently facing - https://battlefieldcoaching.comOrder the Book - Answer With Truth: The Ambassador's Field Manual for Leading Your Family Spiritually - https://amzn.to/3BmnuKV

She spars with podcast host Rosemary Armao, who sees only doom ahead about why she is hopeful and how optimism is a strategic point of view  that can defeat fascism.  Anita Sanchez's award-winning books sing the praises of unloved plants and animals and of the ignored wild places of the world: dandelions, poison ivy, seaweed, glaciers, and mud puddles. Years of field work and teaching outdoor classes with the New York State Department of Environmental Conservation have given her firsthand experience introducing people to the wonders of nature.

Summary: In this episode, Dr. Scott Jensen discusses the importance of health freedom, the role of government in health decisions, and the impact of media on public perception. He emphasizes the need for informed consent, the dangers of fluoride in water, and the significance of small-scale farming for food security. Jensen also addresses the implications of liability shields for corporations and the need for transparency in health discussions, including weather modification. His campaign for governor of Minnesota focuses on restoring safety, opportunity, and values, with a strong commitment to health freedom as a fundamental right. Takeaways: Trust should be placed in the constitution, not the government. Health freedom reflects the status of individual liberties. Fluoride in water is a controversial public health issue. Media manipulation affects public perception of health issues. Deregulating small-scale farming can enhance food security. Liability shields for corporations can undermine accountability. Weather modification raises significant public health concerns. Resources Mentioned: Support Dr Scott Jensen for Minnesota Governor Are you registered to vote for the midterm elections?

It's hard to see what the Roman Catholic Church finds so threatening about women leaders when Denise Hackert-Stoner of Albany describes her Upper Room Inclusive Catholic Community. She's been excommunicated from the traditional Church since her ordination and sees little prospect of it dropping its ban on women priests at least in her lifetime despite the massive pedophile priest scandal plaguing the institution. Women priests demand engagement, charity, compassion, beauty and see themselves as renegades.Denise Hackert-Stoner is an ordained priest in the Association of Roman Catholic Women Priests, and an active member of the Upper Room Inclusive Catholic Community in Albany, NY. As a presider in this community she prepares and participates in church celebrations, and sacramental occasions. She is also in direct service ministries along with friends at the Upper Room catering to the poor, immigrants and refugees. As a nature photographer, she can often be found out on a trail with her husband Scott, often on her knees or belly, inspecting some tiny living thing. Amazed at the beauty of nature and the Divine Presence in all of it, she records her thoughts in a weekly Substack in essays called Walking on God. She also uses her own and Scott's images to illustrate music used in liturgies at the Upper Room.

Denise Hackert-Stoner is a priest. Not in the traditional Roman Catholic church, which instantly excommunicated her and condemned her to hell when she was ordained. But she's a priest nonetheless in the Upper Room Inclusive Catholic Community of the Albany area. In this week's chapter of Beyond the Brink and Fighting Back, podcast host Rosemary Armao talks with Hackert-Stoner about defying church fathers and creating a church that emphasizes love, compassion, diversity, and positivity that feels close to what early Christians had before the Roman patriarchy erased women and introduced hierarchy and rules. Learn more about these renegade women and what they do.

For the first time, the world's most powerful governments are beginning to treat this crisis not as a distant crime, but as a global human rights emergency — one that can be fought with the same tools once used against war criminals and oligarchs. At the centre of that strategy is a man named Bill Browder.From Washington to Phnom Penh, this episode follows how the same weapon Browder helped create is being turned on the crime bosses and corrupt officials profiting from human trafficking and forced scamming in Cambodia.

Thank you to Ro for sponsoring this video. Connect with a provider at https://ro.co/lovers to find out if prescription Ro Sparks are right for you. ----- What happens when you realize the best sex of your marriage only shows up on vacation? Award-winning journalist, author, and podcaster Jemele Hill joins Shan for a conversation about how she uncovered the connection between stress, rest, and desire in her own marriage. She shares why her husband seems to get luckier when they're away, how that awareness has deepened their relationship, and what it taught her about the balance between ambition, partnership, and intimacy. This episode is for my overachievers who struggle to “do it all,” for the happily partnered (or hoping-to-be), and for anyone who's ever wondered how to bring that vacation spark back home. Together, Jemele and Shan break down: - Why “having it all” is a myth (and the price women pay for chasing it) - How silence around stress robs intimacy, and what to do instead - What “fair trade” in the home has to do with mutually desirable sex - Practical ways to bring vacation sex energy into everyday life
