We unpack why digital auctions have overtaken physical lanes in reach and efficiency, and why old habits—not economics—are keeping brick-and-mortar alive. Justin explains how off-lease inventory is reshaping acquisition strategy, where AI improves condition accuracy, and why speed is now the dealer's most valuable asset.

AI has quietly embedded itself across the enterprise but many security teams are still guarding it like a single tool, not the shared risk it's become.On this episode of Ctrl + Alt + AI, host Dimitri Sirota sits down with Aqsa Taylor, Chief Research Officer at Software Analyst Cyber Research, to break down how AI is changing the speed, scale, and structure of modern cyber threats. Drawing from direct conversations with CISOs, Aqsa explains why AI shortens attack timelines, lowers the barrier for sophisticated threats, and forces security teams to rethink response and recovery.The conversation focuses on what security leaders are missing as AI spreads across employees and third-party platforms. Aqsa outlines why securing AI requires treating it as an ongoing lifecycle tied to core security fundamentals rather than a one-time deployment.In this episode, you'll learn:Why AI-driven attacks demand faster containment, not more alertsHow overprivileged AI access quietly expands security riskWhy cleaning data before it reaches AI should be the top of mindThings to listen for: (00:00) Meet Aqsa Taylor(00:22) Why AI risk connects directly to data security(01:15) What CISOs are focused on right now(02:23) AI use is unavoidable inside organizations(03:51) Securing models and the data behind them(04:27) How AI speeds up attacks and response pressure(06:10) Data filtering, privileges, and prompt risk(07:15) LLMs, copilots, and agents create different risks(09:31) Cleaning data before it reaches AI(11:19) Why humans should stay in the loop(14:21) AI-driven phishing and malware scale faster(18:01) Testing AI SOC tools against real incidents(21:15) Governance helps but fundamentals matter more(24:31) Managing third-party AI access and visibility(26:49) Fix fundamentals before chasing AI threats

Join hosts John Drew and Jim Beard, along with special guest JB Anderton (Doctor Who Gives a F*ck/The Bat 77 podcast), as they tackle one of the most controversial multi-Doctor stories in classic Who history. Production Overview: The hosts discuss the behind-the-scenes details of this 1985 three-part adventure, including how the location shifted from the originally planned New Orleans to Seville, Spain. They explore the challenging filming conditions, including extreme heat that made the production difficult, and discuss how this became Colin Baker's favorite story due to his friendship with Patrick Troughton. Creative Conflicts: The episode examines the tension between writer Robert Holmes and director Peter Moffatt, who had very different visions for the story's tone. The hosts also discuss script editor Eric Saward's influence and his preference for darker, more violent content. The Season 6B Theory: The hosts dive deep into fan theories explaining why the Second Doctor and Jamie appear older and why the Doctor seems to be working for the Time Lords, introducing listeners to the concept of "Season 6B" - the idea that the Second Doctor had adventures between his trial and regeneration. Performance Praise: All three hosts agree that Patrick Troughton delivers an excellent performance, giving the role his full commitment despite the script's issues. Colin Baker also receives praise for his dedication, though the hosts feel the material doesn't serve either Doctor well enough. Major Criticisms: The character of Shockeye and the extended focus on food/cannibalism themes Gratuitous violence including the rat-eating scene Poor pacing that stretches the story beyond its natural length Wasted potential for Jamie's character The controversial ending where the Sixth Doctor kills Shockeye Questionable makeup choices for Troughton's Androgum transformation Tall Sontarans that contradict established lore Historical Context: The hosts note that during the airing of part two, the BBC announced Doctor Who would be "rested" for 18 months, creating controversy among fans. The hosts conclude that while the story began with promise in part one, it devolved significantly by part three, with the violence and Shockeye subplot overwhelming what could have been an engaging multi-Doctor adventure. Coming Up Next: Patreon Exclusive: John and Jim wrap up their look at Colin Baker's Voyager comic story, spin the Memory TARDIS, and dive into the infamous "A Fix with Sontarans" special from Jim'll Fix It. Plus, Jim finally shares his thoughts on the legendary (and infamous) charity single "Doctor in Distress" by Ian Levine and company. Next Main Episode: The hosts continue their Colin Baker journey with "Timelash," joined by special guest Alan J. Porter.

On our radar this week… A World Without Exploitation – Release the Epstein Files The 2017 Donald Trump lavished praise on the multi-billion-dollar plan crafted by Michigan and Canada to build the much-needed connector for our two economies. The 2026 Donald Trump sees the bridge as nothing more than a bargaining chip. We'll get into the details of the potential economic disaster with former U.S. Ambassador to Canada … and former Michigan Governor … Jim Blanchard. For Michigan Republicans, Bridgegate poses a new choice: Michigan workers, or Donald Trump. Most apparently are choosing Trump. In Washington D.C. (District of Chaos)Trump's Justice Department-led war on his critics loses again. It's said a prosecutor can get a ham sandwich indicted, but Pam Bondi couldn't get a federal grand jury to indict Elissa Slotkin, Mark Kelly and 4 House Democrats for sedition. Slotkin and Kelly told reporters they refuse to be intimidated by the White House bully. Another federal court, this time in Michigan, has rejected efforts by Bondi to get confidential details of Michigan's qualified voter list. The decision came from a Trump-appointed judge. 8 years after running on a pledge to “Fix the Damn Roads,” Gretchen Whitmer is celebrating bipartisan legislation that's doing just that. Her new budget calls for an extra $2 billion in road and bridge funding, a continuation of the budget deal enacted last October. The executive budget for Fiscal Year (FY) 2027 will fund both state and local roads as it executes the first full-year of funding for Michigan’s roads. Whitmer's 88-billion dollar budget based on roughly $800 million in tax increases, $630 million in cuts and $400 million from the rainy day fund. It calls for increasing the state’s “sin” taxes to fill the gap left by Trump's federal budget cuts to Medicaid and nutrition programs. House Speaker Matt Hall says any tax increase, even if it's taxes on tobacco and gambling, is a non-starter. Senate appropriations chair Sarah Anthony counters: if that's your position, show us what you'll cut. WIll Michigan House Republicans dare to cut Medicaid benefits to ¼ of the state’s population in an election year? Trump's economy is hitting Michigan auto workers. Ford reports that 2026 profit-sharing checks will be one-third less than 2025 checks. That drop impacts not just the UAW members, but also the businesses where those workers spend money. Two of three people accused in a case regarding fake nomination petition signatures for candidates in 2022, including gubernatorial candidates, were found guilty of numerous charges by a Macomb County Circuit Court jury after two days of deliberations. A third person, the wife of one of the other defendants, was acquitted of all the charges filed against her. The signature fraud likely contributed to the GOP nominating Tudor Dixon for Governor … who was swamped by Gretchen Whitmer in the election. Unfortunately, the scores of persons who actually forged the signatures remain at large and available to do it again. We are joined this week by former U.S. Ambassador to Canada (and former Michigan Governor) Jim Blanchard who played a pivotal role in negotiating details of the Michigan-Canada agreement to build the Gordie Howe Bridge. After 8 years as Michigan's Governor, Blanchard was named as the nation's representative in Ottawa by President Clinton. He served in that role for two-and-a-half years. Governor Blanchard holds two degrees from Michigan State University, and a law degree from the University of Minnesota. We’re now on YouTube every week! Click here to subscribe.

We're wrapping up the three-part Landscape Frustrations series — and this one hits the everyday issues homeowners quietly struggle with.  VIDEO VERSION HERE: Top 5 Landscape Frustrations | Part 3 of 3 | Pruning, Equipment +  BONUS https://youtu.be/7w-xns4kEjk    In this episode, Coach Matt tackles:   ✔️ Pruning confusion – When to prune, how much to prune, and why timing matters more than you think. ✔️ Fruit trees & berries – Understanding fruiting spurs, primocanes vs. floricanes, and how to get quality over quantity. ✔️ Garden equipment essentials – The must-have tools every homeowner should own (and what you should rent instead). ✔️ Maintenance matters – Sharpen it. Oil it. Store it right. Or replace it sooner than you'd like. ✔️ BONUS: Plant ID – Know what you own before you cut it, feed it, or plant another one.   If you've ever: Pruned something and lost the blooms the next year Bought the wrong plant variety Wondered what tools you actually need Or felt like your yard was winning   This episode is for you.   Because here's the truth: You can't manage what you don't understand. And most landscape frustration comes from simply not knowing what you don't know.

The Overton window has shifted again. Tariffs, alliances, climate accords, Russia-U.S. speculation. Narratives flip every election cycle. The question is not who is right. The question is how you stay stable when governance feels unstable. This episode breaks down leadership in volatility. We examine dollar-cost averaging as disciplined resistance to chaos. We confront institutional power. BlackRock, Vanguard, central banks. Not mythology. Influence. We explore why stoic frameworks outperform emotional reactions. Year of the Cow. The bull does not panic. It plants its feet. Stability at home. Stability in markets. Fix the foundation before remodeling the house. Signal over noise. Own the path.

On this show…we're exploring Air and Light: Clearing Stagnation Without Forcing a Fix, and why sometimes the spaces in our lives that feel overwhelming, forgotten, or beyond repair may not need a dramatic overhaul… they may just need a little air and light. Have you ever walked into a room that's been closed up for years? The air feels thick. The smell is stale. The silence almost hums. You hesitate before stepping in, not because it's dangerous, but because it feels untouched. Undisturbed. Like time stopped there. That's exactly what we were facing with the basement of an old building we own. It hadn't seen the light of day in more than fifty years. Fifty years of stillness. Dust layered like history. Corners that held who-knows-what. And as we stood there talking about what it would take to fix it, clean it, repair it… my father-in-law said something so simple it almost felt too easy. “It just needs a little air and light.” Air and light. Not a demolition plan. Not a complicated formula. Not a weekend of intense problem-solving. Just open the windows. Let it breathe. Let the sun in. And that sentence has stayed with me. Because how many areas of our lives feel like that basement? An old belief about ourselves. A past mistake. A relationship dynamic. A dream we shelved. Something that hasn't seen the light of day in a long time. We assume if it feels heavy, we must attack it. Fix it. Force change. But what if the first step isn't force? What if it's exposure? CHALLENGE: This week, choose one area of your life that has felt stagnant and give it just a little air and light. Don't fix it. Don't overhaul it. Simply expose it. Say it out loud, write it down, or look at it honestly with fresh eyes. Open the window and let it breathe. I Know YOU Can Do It!

Tell you what—I'm not feeling terribly hopeful about the situation for vulnerable kids in this country after reading the coroner's recommendations following the death of Malachi Subecz. You'll remember the case of Malachi. I'm not going to go through the details again; sufficient to say it happened about four and a half, nearly five years ago, and it fired up public anger because of the number of times his wider family tried to warn authorities that something was going to happen—and yet he was not protected. One of the recommendations the coroner has made today in her report is that Oranga Tamariki—OT, formerly CYFS—run a public awareness campaign to help people identify possible signs of abuse and understand how to take action. To be fair to her, that idea isn't new. It came from an earlier review. She's simply pointing out that it still hasn't happened, and is reiterating that the campaign should go ahead. But really? Is that what we need in this country—a public campaign to tell us what child abuse looks like? I think we all know what child abuse looks like. I struggle to believe that there are people who do not know that breaking a child's bone is abuse. So isn't this just the kind of thing well-meaning people suggest to make themselves feel like they're doing something, when really it changes nothing—because maybe there's very little you actually can do? The problem in Malachi's case wasn't that people didn't know what child abuse looked like. People did see the abuse. They absolutely recognised it as abuse. And they went to OT and said, “Hey, Malachi is being abused. Here's the proof.” By my count, they did that about five times—if not more. And OT didn't stop it. That is the problem. And it's the problem in so many of these tragic cases. When a child dies, we often discover afterwards that OT already knew the family—and yet the child ended up dead anyway. The problem isn't that you and I don't know what child abuse looks like. We do.

Most people try to be more present by forcing focus when the real leverage comes from how you transition between moments rather than what you do inside them.   In this episode, Dr. Andrew Fix reframes presence as a skill built through transitions rather than effort alone. When work spills into home or one conversation runs straight into the next, stress builds quietly and attention thins out. The issue is rarely motivation. It is the absence of buffer time that allows the mind to reset before moving forward.   Dr. Fix makes the case for protecting small pauses that most people rush past. A minute in the car before walking inside. A breath before responding instead of reacting. A short buffer between meetings that creates space to listen rather than solve. These moments close one chapter before the next begins. What changes when you stop carrying mental residue from task to task? How might your relationships shift if you gave presence priority over speed? The message is simple and grounded. Transitions deserve intention because they shape how you show up everywhere else.   Quotes “What I want to encourage you guys to do is to not take for granted how powerful even just a small but really intentional period of time can be to transition from one activity to the next.” (03:28 | Dr. Andrew Fix) “People need you to listen to them. People need you to hear what they're saying and listen, not just to respond, but listen to hear them and listen to understand what they're trying to say.” (05:20 | Dr. Andrew Fix) “Just pause for a beat before you respond to them. Just pause, that could be one breath, that could be two breaths.” (05:39 | Dr. Andrew Fix) “We need to protect that transition time. Because although it is short, it is extremely valuable. It is worth its weight in gold.” (08:00 | Dr. Andrew Fix) “Come along with me on this practice journey and take just 30 to 60 seconds when you go from one activity to the next.” (09:04 | Dr. Andrew Fix)   Links SideKick Tool   Movemate: Award-Winning Active Standing Board 15% off Promo Code: DRA15   RAD Roller   Revogreen   HYDRAGUN    Athletic Brewing 20% off: ANDREWF20 Connect with Physio Room: Visit the Physio Room Website Follow Physio Room on Instagram Follow Physio Room on Facebook Andrew's Personal Instagram Andrew's Personal Facebook Podcast production and show notes provided by HiveCast.fm

In this episode of the Coach Cody Podcast, we sit down (again!) with Dr. James Greenblatt, MD — a dual board-certified psychiatrist and internationally recognized pioneer in functional and integrative psychiatry, known for his work on low-dose nutritional lithium and root-cause mental health care. We talk about why conventional psychiatry often becomes “symptom → prescription” medicine, and how functional psychiatry takes a test-then-treat approach by looking at things like nutrient deficiencies, hormones, gut health, genetics (including MTHFR), and metabolic factors that can drive depression and anxiety. Topics we cover:Functional vs integrative vs conventional psychiatry (and why “lifestyle changes” alone may not be enough)Why labs are so often skipped in mental health care — and why that's a problemThe big ones Dr. Greenblatt sees constantly: vitamin D and “normal but not optimal” B12Celiac disease and malabsorption as a commonly missed root causeLow-dose lithium orotate: what it is, how it differs from prescription lithium, and why he recommends simple standalone dosingAntidepressants: why he's not anti-medication, but believes patients deserve honest conversations about side effects and withdrawalKetamine: when it can help, when clinics get out of control, and why you should address root causes firstWhat gives him the most hope right now: the research is finally catching up

Are you suffering from "Ethical Fading"? Discover actionable strategies to navigate a compromised world and cutthroat office politics without losing your soul or your competitive edge.We spend a significant amount of our collective energy frustrated by the state of the world. We look at the headlines, we watch the news, and we see a parade of compromised characters—politicians who trade influence for favors, CEOs who prioritize quarterly earnings over human safety, and public figures who seem to have surgically removed their shame. It is easy, and perhaps even cathartic, to point a finger at the screen and declare them the problem. It feels good to position ourselves as the moral observers of a crumbling society. But today, I want to ask you to do something much harder. I want you to lower that finger, turn away from the screen, and look in the mirror.This isn't about politics. This isn't about the grand stage of global affairs. This is about you. It is about the subtle, quiet, and often invisible ways that the corruption of the world seeps into our own bloodstreams. We all hate the corrupt politician, but we need to have a very honest, uncomfortable conversation about whether we fudge our own taxes. We despise the corporate liar, but do we embellish our resumes? We loathe the system that seems rigged, but do we grease the wheels of our own small lives with convenient untruths?The reality is that integrity is not a binary state. You aren't simply a "good person" or a "bad person." Integrity is a muscle, and like any muscle, it atrophies if you don't exercise it, and it tears if you put it under too much weight without training. In a world that often rewards the shortcut and celebrates the shark, maintaining your integrity is not just a moral luxury; it is a strategic necessity for your long-term mental health and professional survival. We are going to break down exactly how good people end up doing bad things, and more importantly, how you can navigate a compromised workplace—the office politics, the toxic bosses, the gray areas—without losing your soul or becoming part of the problem.We have to start by understanding the mechanism of our own undoing. Psychologists and behavioral economists have a term for this phenomenon: Ethical Fading. It is a fascinating and terrifying concept. Ethical fading occurs when the ethical dimensions of a decision fade from view, and the decision is reclassified as a business decision, a strategic maneuver, or a necessary evil. It is the process of numbing ourselves to our own small dishonesties. It doesn't happen overnight. You don't wake up one morning and decide to be a corrupt person. It happens by degrees. It is the boiling frog experiment applied to your soul.Think about the last time you faced a minor ethical dilemma. Maybe it was an expense report where you rounded up a few figures. Maybe it was telling a client that a project was "90% done" when you hadn't even started, just to buy yourself a weekend of peace. In that moment, you didn't think, "I am a liar." You thought, "I am managing expectations," or "I am just making sure I get reimbursed for the hassle." That is ethical fading. You strip the moral weight away from the action and replace it with utilitarian language. You convince yourself that the ends justify the means, or that "everyone else is doing it," or that the system is so broken that your small transgression is merely a drop in the ocean.But here is the bottom line: those drops accumulate. When you allow these small acts of "fading" to occur, you are retraining your brain. You are raising your threshold for discomfort. The first time you lie to your boss, your heart races and your palms sweat. That is your conscience working; that is your biological alarm system. But the second time, the alarm is a little quieter. The tenth time, there is no alarm at all. You have successfully numb yourself. The danger here is not just that you are becoming dishonest; it is that you are becoming blind. You lose the ability to see where the line is, and eventually, when a big compromise is demanded of you—a serious breach of ethics—you might just cross it without even realizing you have left the safety of the shore.So, how do we stop this slide? How do we maintain a rigid spine in a flexible world? It starts with a brutal personal audit. You need to look at your life with the cold, hard gaze of a forensic accountant. Where are you leaking integrity? This isn't about guilt; guilt is a useless emotion unless it drives change. This is about data. Are you honest in your relationships? Do you keep the promises you make to yourself? Do you present an unfiltered version of reality to your team, or do you curate the truth to make yourself look better?One of the most common places where this integrity leak occurs is in our professional identities. The resume is often the first casualty of the truth. We live in a hyper-competitive market, and the temptation to "polish" our credentials is immense. But there is a massive difference between highlighting your strengths and fabricating your reality. When you claim a skill you don't have or inflate a title you didn't earn, you are building your career on a foundation of sand. You are creating a future based on the fear that you are not enough as you are. And practically speaking, the anxiety of maintaining that lie, of constantly looking over your shoulder waiting to be exposed, is a massive energy drain. It taxes your mental resources—resources that you could be using to actually learn the skill you lied about.This brings us to the battlefield where most of us face these challenges daily: the workplace. The modern office is often a breeding ground for ethical compromise. We have all been there. The toxic manager who takes credit for your work. The colleague who smiles to your face and gossips behind your back. The pressure from upper management to hit targets that are mathematically impossible without cutting corners. This is where the rubber meets the road. It is easy to be virtuous when you are sitting alone in a room. It is much harder to be virtuous when your mortgage payment depends on your ability to survive in a corrupt ecosystem.You might be asking, "How do I survive office politics without becoming a politician?" The answer lies in shifting your mindset from "playing the game" to "mastering the terrain." You do not have to become a snake to survive in a snake pit, but you do have to know where the snakes are hiding and how to handle them.The first strategy is to become the master of the paper trail. In a compromised environment, the truth is often the first thing to be distorted. Your best defense is documentation. This isn't about being paranoid; it is about being professional. When a directive comes down that feels unethical or risky, you confirm it in writing. You send the follow-up email: "Just to clarify our conversation this morning, you would like me to proceed with X, despite the potential risk of Y." You do this neutrally, without emotion. You are essentially creating a reality anchor. Corrupt systems thrive on ambiguity and verbal orders that can be denied later. By forcing things into the written record, you introduce accountability. You shine a light. Often, just the act of documenting a shady request is enough to make the requester back down, because they know that their "ethical fade" won't survive the scrutiny of a written record.However, documentation is just the defensive line. You also need an offensive strategy, and that strategy is competence. In a corrupt or highly political environment, competence is the ultimate currency. People who rely on politics usually do so because they lack the substance to succeed on merit. They need the smoke and mirrors. If you focus on being undeniably good at what you do, you create a layer of insulation around yourself. When you deliver results that are tangible, measurable, and high-quality, you become harder to manipulate and harder to remove. You become an asset that even the corrupt players need to keep the ship afloat.But let's go deeper into the interpersonal dynamics. How do you handle the gossip, the backstabbing, the alliances? The pragmatic approach is to view yourself as Switzerland—neutral, observant, and armed. You can be friendly without being intimate. You can listen without participating. When someone comes to you with gossip, you have a choice. You can fuel the fire, or you can let the flame die with you. The most powerful phrase you can learn in office politics is a non-committal, "That sounds frustrating for you," followed by an immediate pivot back to work. "That sounds frustrating. Anyway, have you seen the data on the Q3 report?" By refusing to engage in the mudslinging, you signal that you are not a player in that game. You are there to work. This might alienate you from the "clique" temporarily, but in the long run, it earns you something far more valuable: respect. Even the snakes respect the person who refuses to be bitten or to bite.There is a nuance here that we must address. There is a difference between being "difficult" and being principled. Some people use "integrity" as a shield to be obstructionist or self-righteous. That is not what we are aiming for. We want to be the person who solves problems, not the person who creates bottlenecks. When you have to say "no" to something because of an ethical concern, you should always try to offer an alternative path. Don't just be the stop sign; be the detour. "I can't do X because it violates our compliance policy, but I believe we can achieve the same result if we do Y and Z." This shows that you are still on the team, that you are still driving toward the goal, but that you are insisting on getting there on a road that doesn't collapse beneath you.Now, we have to talk about the hardest part of this equation. We have to talk about the breaking point. There is a limit to how much you can navigate a corrupt system before the system begins to change you. You can wear a hazmat suit to work every day, but eventually, the radiation gets through. You need to know your "walk away" price. This is a concept I want you to define for yourself today, not when you are in the middle of a crisis. What is the line you will not cross? Is it lying to a client? Is it firing someone unjustly? Is it breaking the law? You must define these non-negotiables now, while your head is clear.If you don't define your non-negotiables, you will fall victim to the "slippery slope" we discussed earlier. You will justify the first small crossing of the line, and then the next, until you are miles away from who you wanted to be. But if you have that line drawn in the sand of your mind, when you approach it, an alarm will go off. And when that alarm goes off, you have to be willing to act. This is where the "pragmatic" part of our coaching comes in. Integrity sometimes requires an exit strategy.I am not telling you to quit your job tomorrow in a blaze of moral glory without a plan. That isn't smart; that's reckless. I am telling you that if you find yourself in an environment that consistently demands you compromise your values, you need to start plotting your escape. You need to update that resume (honestly), start networking, and save your money. Financial stability is one of the greatest guardians of integrity. When you live paycheck to paycheck, you are vulnerable. You are terrified of losing your income, and fear is the enemy of ethics. Fear makes us compliant. But if you have an emergency fund, if you have a "freedom fund," you have the power to say "no." You have the power to walk away. Money, in this sense, buys you the luxury of a conscience.Let's shift gears and look at the internal cost of corruption. Why does this matter? Why shouldn't you just fudge the numbers, play the politics, and get the promotion? Why not just lie on the resume if it gets you the foot in the door? The answer lies in the concept of "cognitive load."Lying, pretending, and managing a false persona takes an immense amount of brainpower. When you are living a lie, you have to remember the lie. You have to constantly calibrate your story to match your previous fabrications. You have to monitor other people's reactions to see if they suspect anything. This is a background process that is running in your brain 24/7, eating up your battery life. It causes low-level anxiety, chronic stress, and a pervasive sense of impostor syndrome.On the other hand, the truth is efficient. When you live with integrity, you don't have to remember what you said, because you said what happened. You don't have to worry about being exposed, because you have nothing to hide. This liberates a massive amount of mental energy. You can focus that energy on creativity, on problem-solving, on actual growth. Integrity is the ultimate productivity hack. It simplifies your life. It streamlines your decision-making process. When you know what your values are, you don't have to agonize over every choice. You simply ask, "Does this align with my values?" If the answer is no, the decision is made.Furthermore, we must consider the compounding interest of reputation. In a world that is increasingly transparent, where digital footprints last forever, your reputation is your most valuable asset. You might gain a short-term advantage by cheating—you might get the sale, or the job, or the tax break. But if you are caught, or even if people just start to sense that you are not trustworthy, the long-term cost is catastrophic. Trust takes years to build and seconds to break. In business and in life, people prefer to work with those they can trust. If you are known as a straight shooter, someone whose handshake actually means something, opportunities will flow to you. People will bring you into the inner circle because they know you won't stab them in the back. Integrity is a long-term greed. It pays better dividends over a lifetime than dishonesty ever could.Let's look at some specific, actionable steps you can take today to begin strengthening your integrity muscle. We need to move from the philosophical to the practical.First, I want you to practice "Radical Honesty" in low-stakes situations. We often lie about small things to avoid minor social friction. We say we are "five minutes away" when we haven't left the house. We say we "loved the dinner" when it was cold. Start catching yourself in these micro-lies. Correct them in real-time. If you are running late, say, "I am running 20 minutes late because I managed my time poorly." It is uncomfortable, yes. But it trains your brain that truth is the default setting. It builds a tolerance for the minor discomfort of honesty, which prepares you for the major discomfort of difficult ethical stands later on.Second, identify your "Ethical Blind Spots." We all have them. Maybe you are incredibly honest with money, but you tend to exaggerate stories to be the center of attention. Maybe you would never steal a pen from the office, but you regularly steal time by scrolling social media when you are on the clock. Be honest with yourself about where your weak points are. You cannot fortify a wall if you don't know where the cracks are. Once you identify a blind spot, set a specific rule for it. If you doom-scroll at work, use an app blocker. If you exaggerate stories, practice the discipline of understatement.Third, find an "Accountability Mirror." This can be a person—a mentor, a partner, a friend who you know will tell you the unvarnished truth. Give them permission to call you out. Ask them, "Do you ever see me compromising on my values? Do I ever come across as disingenuous?" It takes courage to ask that question, and it takes even more courage to listen to the answer without getting defensive. But that external perspective is invaluable. We are often the best lawyers for our own defense, rationalizing our bad behavior. You need a judge.Fourth, change your language. Words shape reality. Stop using euphemisms that disguise unethical behavior. Don't call it "creative accounting"; call it "fraud." Don't call it "padding the resume"; call it "lying." Don't call it "office politics"; call it "manipulation." When you use the raw, ugly words to describe the actions, they lose their seductive power. It becomes much harder to commit fraud than it is to engage in creative accounting. By stripping away the corporate speak, you force yourself to confront the reality of what you are doing.Let's return to the concept of the "Compromised World" for a moment. It is easy to become cynical. It is easy to look at the billionaire who cheated his way to the top and feel like a fool for playing by the rules. You might think, "nice guys finish last." But I want you to challenge that definition of "winning." If winning means having a massive bank account but being unable to sleep without medication because of the stress of your deception, is that winning? If winning means being the CEO but having a family that despises you and a staff that fears you, is that winning?We need to redefine success to include the quality of our inner life. A "clean" success—one achieved through hard work, smart strategy, and ethical behavior—tastes different. It is sustainable. It is robust. It belongs to you in a way that stolen success never can. When you achieve something honestly, no one can take it away from you by revealing a secret. You own it completely.There is also a ripple effect to consider. We often underestimate the power of our own example. In a corrupt workplace, one person acting with integrity can change the atmosphere. It is contagious. When you refuse to gossip, you create a safe space for others to stop gossiping. When you admit a mistake openly instead of covering it up, you give permission for your team to be honest about their failures, which leads to faster problem solving. You have the power to set the standard. You are not just a passive observer of the culture; you are a creator of it.This is particularly true for those of you in leadership positions. If you are a manager, your team is watching you like hawks. They are looking for cues on how to behave. If they see you fudge a number, they will fudge ten. If they see you lie to a client, they will lie to you. The culture of a team is a reflection of the worst behavior the leader is willing to tolerate—in themselves and in others. If you want a high-performance team, you must demand high integrity, and you must embody it first.Now, let's address the naysayers. There will be people who tell you that this advice is naive. They will say, "This is the real world, you have to get your hands dirty." To them, I say: Look at the long game. The graveyards of industry are filled with the careers of people who thought they were smarter than the truth. They thought they could outrun the consequences. They thought they could manage the web of lies. They were wrong. The house of cards always falls. It might take a year, it might take ten, but gravity always wins. Building on a foundation of integrity is the only way to build a structure that withstands the storms of life.Navigating this path requires a specific kind of courage. It isn't the loud, heroic courage of the movies. It is a quiet, daily courage. It is the courage to be the only person in the room not laughing at an inappropriate joke. It is the courage to say, "I don't think that's the right way to handle this," when everyone else is nodding along. It is the courage to accept a short-term loss for a long-term gain. This is the courage that builds character. And character, in the end, is destiny.As we move toward the conclusion of this discussion, I want to leave you with a strategy for when you feel overwhelmed by the corruption around you. It is called "The Circle of Control." You cannot control the politicians. You cannot control the economy. You often cannot control your company's upper management. When you focus on these things, you feel helpless and angry, which makes you more likely to say, "Screw it, why should I try?"Instead, draw a small circle around yourself. Inside that circle are your actions, your words, your work ethic, and your treatment of others. That is your kingdom. Rule it wisely. Make that circle a zone of absolute integrity. No matter how chaotic or corrupt the world outside that circle becomes, inside the circle, standards are maintained. Inside the circle, promises are kept. Inside the circle, truth is spoken.What you will find is that over time, your circle will expand. People will want to be in your circle. They will want to hire you, partner with you, and follow you, because your circle is a refuge of sanity and reliability in a crazy world.So, here is your homework. I want you to take one specific action today. Not tomorrow, today. Identify one small area where you have been letting your standards slip. Maybe it's how you talk to your spouse. Maybe it's how much effort you put into your work when the boss isn't looking. Maybe it's a small recurring lie you tell to avoid conflict. Fix it. Right now. Send the text, make the apology, redo the work. Reclaim that piece of territory for your integrity.Don't do it to be a saint. Do it to be strong. Do it because you refuse to be a passive victim of a compromised culture. Do it because the most pragmatic, powerful thing you can be in this world is a person who cannot be bought, who cannot be intimidated, and who dares to tell the truth.The world may be compromised, but you do not have to be. The corruption stops at your doorstep. The ethical fading stops with your next decision. You have the tools. You have the strategy. Now, go out there and execute. The world needs more people who are playing the long game. Be one of them.

Yellow teeth are not just a cosmetic issue. They are often a metabolic signal linked to saliva pH, gut health, liver function, and mineral balance. Most whitening strips and bleaching products do not fix the root cause. They temporarily whiten teeth while weakening enamel, increasing porosity, disrupting the oral microbiome, and causing rebound staining over time. Teeth are porous, like a hard sponge. When saliva becomes acidic, stains bind more easily, enamel weakens faster, and whitening results do not last. Common internal drivers of yellow teeth include acid reflux or silent GERD, gut dysbiosis, liver congestion, mineral deficiencies, chronic dehydration, and inflammation. This episode breaks down a natural, root-cause whitening protocol that supports enamel instead of damaging it. Key strategies include using baking soda and activated charcoal safely once per week, oil pulling with coconut oil, and restoring saliva pH through nutrition and mineral intake. You will also learn which foods support healthy saliva pH, which foods and drinks actively damage enamel, and why frequent snacking worsens staining even with healthy foods. The core message: your smile is metabolic, not cosmetic. Fix the internal imbalance, and whitening becomes natural and long-lasting.

I've been looking for a way to celebrate America 250 as this year goes by and I don't want it to be relegated to July 4th or certain events. So, I thought maybe I would search for primary documents, written for or by the Founding Fathers (and a surrounding cast of historical characters) for as many of the days of the year as I can. Since I'm starting in February, I think it's fitting that my search brought me first to a set of letters exchanged between Phyllis Wheatley and General George Washington. Below is the poem that prompted Washington to write to the formerly enslaved poet, Phyllis Wheatley. His Excellency, General Washington by Phyllis Wheatley Celestial choir! enthron'd in realms of light,Columbia's scenes of glorious toils I write.While freedom's cause her anxious breast alarms,She flashes dreadful in refulgent arms.See mother earth her offspring's fate bemoan,And nations gaze at scenes before unknown!See the bright beams of heaven's revolving lightInvolved in sorrows and the veil of night!    The Goddess comes, she moves divinely fair,Olive and laurel binds Her golden hair:Wherever shines this native of the skies,Unnumber'd charms and recent graces rise.    Muse! Bow propitious while my pen relatesHow pour her armies through a thousand gates,As when Eolus heaven's fair face deforms,Enwrapp'd in tempest and a night of storms;Astonish'd ocean feels the wild uproar,The refluent surges beat the sounding shore;Or think as leaves in Autumn's golden reign,Such, and so many, moves the warrior's train.In bright array they seek the work of war,Where high unfurl'd the ensign waves in air.Shall I to Washington their praise recite?Enough thou know'st them in the fields of fight.Thee, first in peace and honors—we demandThe grace and glory of thy martial band.Fam'd for thy valour, for thy virtues more,Hear every tongue thy guardian aid implore!    One century scarce perform'd its destined round,When Gallic powers Columbia's fury found;And so may you, whoever dares disgraceThe land of freedom's heaven-defended race!Fix'd are the eyes of nations on the scales,For in their hopes Columbia's arm prevails.Anon Britannia droops the pensive head,While round increase the rising hills of dead.Ah! Cruel blindness to Columbia's state!Lament thy thirst of boundless power too late.    Proceed, great chief, with virtue on thy side,Thy ev'ry action let the Goddess guide.A crown, a mansion, and a throne that shine,With gold unfading, WASHINGTON! Be thine. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Today, Sam sits down with Steve Hoggle, General Manager at Honda of Lake City and Sarah Copp, Director of Major Accounts at Lotlinx to pull back the curtain on the "Moneyball" strategy of modern automotive retail.

Is Dr. Mike IGNORING SCIENCE ON PURPOSE!? Dr. Joel "Gator" Warsh joins Brian Nichols to reveal the uncomfortable truth about childhood vaccines and why the collapse of public health trust is happening right now. We dive deep into the data that mainstream influencers like Dr. Mike ignore, specifically regarding the "one-size-fits-all" CDC schedule and the lack of studies on vaccinated vs. unvaccinated children. Dr. Gator explains why the medical establishment's refusal to debate—or even acknowledge—valid parental concerns about side effects and the sheer volume of shots is driving families away from modern medicine entirely. We expose the reality of informed consent and the financial incentives keeping the system broken. You need to hear this blueprint for navigating your child's health without fear or coercion. Dr. Gator breaks down the specific research gaps in autism studies, why the "anti-vax" label is a weapon used to silence nuance, and how parents can finally take back control from a system that demands blind obedience.

When the market feels uncertain, most agents slow down. Top agents lean in. In this episode, we break down why hesitation — not interest rates or inventory — is the real threat to your business, and how structure, conversations, and daily action create certainty even in challenging markets. This is not hype or empty motivation. It's a practical reset for agents who want predictable income, stronger pipelines, and renewed momentum. You'll learn why pessimism spreads so easily, how hard markets actually remove competition, and why optimism becomes a competitive advantage when it's backed by a real plan. We cover the core laws of motivation, the comeback formula for rebuilding momentum, and how AI fits into the future of real estate without replacing agents who lead with confidence and action. In this episode, you'll discover: • Why hesitation — not the market — kills agent income• How structure eliminates anxiety and builds confidence• The daily actions that create listings and appointments• Why conversations drive income in every market• How to turn optimism into a practical business advantage If you've felt uncertainty creeping in this year, this episode is your reset. Because optimism isn't something you wait for. It's something you earn through action.

I am confident that Brett has the expertise to QUICKLY fix the long history of issues at the BLS on behalf of the American People. Brett Matsumoto is a Brilliant, Reputable, and Trusted Economist who will restore GREATNESS to the Bureau of Labor Statistics. Congratulations Brett! https://twitter.com/USTradeRep/status/2017747044350280104?s=20      extensive research in the field of Economics and Finance. Kevin issued an Independent Report to the Bank of England proposing reforms in the conduct of Monetary Policy in the United Kingdom. Parliament adopted the Report’s recommendations. Kevin Warsh became the youngest Fed Governor, ever, at 35, and served as a Member of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System from 2006 until 2011, as the Federal Reserve’s Representative to the Group of Twenty (G-20), and as the Board’s Emissary to the Emerging and Advanced Economies in Asia. In addition, he was Administrative Governor, managing and overseeing the Board’s operations, personnel, and financial performance. Prior to his appointment to the Board, from 2002 until 2006, Kevin served as Special Assistant to the President for Economic Policy, and Executive Secretary of the White House National Economic Council. Previously, Kevin was a member of the Mergers & Acquisitions Department at Morgan Stanley & Co., in New York, serving as Vice President and Executive Director. I have known Kevin for a long period of time, and have no doubt that he will go down as one of the GREAT Fed Chairmen, maybe the best. On top of everything else, he is “central casting,” and he will never let you down. Congratulations Kevin! PRESIDENT DONALD J. TRUMP Warsh has compared Bitcoin favorably to gold as a “sustainable store of value,” indicating a positive view of gold’s role in the financial system.  However, his nomination led to sharp declines in gold and silver prices (e.g., silver fell up to 26% in one day), as markets interpreted him as an inflation hawk who might pursue tighter monetary policy, reducing the appeal of precious metals as inflation hedges.  This reaction stemmed from fears of less dovish Fed actions, which had previously driven gold’s rally amid uncertainty over Fed independence.  Warsh’s broader hawkish stance on inflation aligns with “hard money” principles that could indirectly support gold, but his emphasis on shrinking the Fed’s balance sheet and normalizing policy suggests he prioritizes institutional reform over promoting gold as a standard. Is Kevin Warsh Pro-Sound Money?Yes, Warsh is a strong advocate for sound money principles, emphasizing disciplined, anti-inflationary monetary policy. He views inflation as a “monetary phenomenon” and “a choice” driven by excessive government printing and spending.  As a former Fed Governor, he was often the most hawkish voice, opposing aggressive rate cuts during crises due to inflation risks.  He criticizes the Fed’s “mission creep,” oversized balance sheet, and reliance on quantitative easing (QE), arguing these enable fiscal irresponsibility and distort markets. Warsh calls for “regime change” at the Fed, shifting away from Keynesian models toward rules-based policy that incorporates money supply considerations and reduces interventionism. He stresses credibility, clear rules, and accountability to maintain sound money.   In a 2025 Hoover Institution paper, he advocated scrutinizing monetary policy under a framework that could include constitutional measures for prosperity and idea diffusion. Warsh has been vocal against Powell’s leadership, echoing Trump’s frustrations with high interest rates and calling for “regime change” at the Fed. He has moderated his hawkish stance to support lower rates, arguing AI-driven productivity allows growth without inflation. Credibility and Market Reassurance: Warsh is seen as a “traditional” pick with Fed experience, reassuring investors amid fears of a loyalist appointment that could undermine independence. Trump highlighted Warsh’s ability to deliver lower rates and growth, though some economists note Warsh’s independence could lead to tensions if he prioritizes data over demands. Analysts suggest the pick balances Trump’s desire for cuts with a credible figure.

The administration has filed suit against an illegal migrant living in Virginia, and is seeking $941,114 plus interest, alleging that Marta Alicia Ramirez Veliz has remained in the country despite being told her request for admittance was rejected by a Justice Department appeals panel in 2022, Politico reported. The filing notes that Veliz has refused to pay a $998 per-day fine for the 943 days since she was told to return to her home country, and reveals that Immigration and Customs Enforcement sent her an official notice of her total fine in April. The lawsuit describes Veliz as “an individual and noncitizen residing in Chesterfield County, Virginia,” and does not identify her nationality. source: breitbart.com https://twitter.com/KanekoaTheGreat/status/2017404446230323358?s=20 BREAKING: Disturbing photos in the Epstein files appear to show Prince Andrew on all fours over a woman lying on the ground. https://twitter.com/HansMahncke/status/2017792445979791448?s=20   for everyone, or is connected through some opaque web of professional and personal ties. A supposedly random figure from the squalor of Uganda rises all the way to mayor of New York, only for it to later emerge that his mother is deeply embedded in elite circles. The same pattern shows up again and again. James Comey's daughter just happened to be a lead federal prosecutor on the Epstein case. The judge who presided over the trial of Hillary Clinton's lawyer, the one who helped seed the Russiagate hoax, is married to Lisa Page's lawyer. Page, of course, was involved with Peter Strzok, who is one of the central figures in that same hoax. And to complete the circle, Merrick Garland officiated their wedding. None of this requires conspiracy theories. It requires only acknowledging how small, closed, and self-protecting these elite worlds are. Fix elite incestuousness, and a lot of other problems will disappear on their own. https://twitter.com/KanekoaTheGreat/status/2017734119334232544?s=20 https://twitter.com/KanekoaTheGreat/status/2017474860700877105?s=20   https://twitter.com/CynicalPublius/status/2017762585878069630?s=20 https://twitter.com/KanekoaTheGreat/status/2017694490614763591?s=20   written from Nikolic's perspective. At the time, Nikolic was Gates's top scientific investment advisor. The emails suggest Gates was firing Nikolic in response to marital problems with Melinda. In June 2013, Nikolic emailed Gates and asked if he wanted to go to the “legendary Crazy Horse in Paris” an erotic show, while they were in France. Gates declined, saying he would be too tired and didn't want to take the risk, adding that he might have done it when he was younger. On July 1, 2013, Gates emailed Nikolic: “We should meet on Wednesday to discuss your job. There is going to have to be a transition. I feel very bad about it but I don’t see a way around it.” Nikolic shared these emails with Epstein. Epstein later commented on the Paris erotic show email, writing: “This is pretty bad and might have been the cause of her bad mail in paris.”—apparently referring to Melinda. Nikolic appeared unhappy about being fired while potentially being used as a scapegoat, and he sought greater financial compensation as he prepared to leave and launch his own investment fund. In these emails, Epstein—writing as Nikolic—references alleged knowledge of Gates's extramarital affairs, STDs allegedly contracted from Russian women, and drug use as justification for why Nikolic deserved more money. Taken together, it appears Jeffrey Epstein was drafting or shaping a message for Boris Nikolic that effectively functioned as blackmail, pressuring Bill Gates for financial compensation. It remains unclear whether Nikolic ultimately sent these messages to Gates. However, later emails suggest Gates helped Nikolic launch his next investment fund and maintained a working relationship with him afterward. Epstein later listed Nikolic as a backup executor of his will, indicating the two were close confidants. https://twitter.com/Breaking911/status/2017769194159210784?s=20 Billionaire Reid Hoffman, Who Bankrolled the E. Jean Carroll Lawsuit Against Trump, Is Featured Extensively in the New Epstein Files, Visiting Zorro Ranch and Pedophile Island  Hoffman went to the Island. A man who used his fortune to bankroll a lawsuit against President Donald J. Trump is now featured extensively in the new DOJ-released Jeffrey Epstein documents. The three and a half million documents from the latest – and apparently last – have been released by the DOJ following the approval of the House Resolution 4405, the Epstein Files Transparency Act. Documents from this massive release show the close ties between LinkedIn co-founder Reid Hoffman and the late pedophile.

It's all bullshit. Lots of people not looking good though after today's release. Will be interesting to see how this plays out. To muddy the waters is an idiom that means to make a situation, issue, or discussion more confusing, unclear, or complicated—often deliberately. For example: “The politician’s vague statements only muddied the waters during the debate.” It originates from the idea of stirring up mud in water, making it murky and hard to see through. DOGE Geopolitical War/Peace Iran Hits Back At EU: Designates European Armies As ‘Terrorist Entities’ Iran is saying two can play at the West’s game: on Friday the secretary of Iran’s Supreme National Security Council blasted the EU’s decision to designate the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) as a “terrorist organization,” warning that Europe’s own militaries would now be viewed through the same lens. “The European Union certainly knows that… the armies of countries that have participated in the European Union’s recent resolution against the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps are considered terrorist entities,” Ali Larijani wrote in a post on X. He added bluntly: “Therefore, the consequences of that shall be borne by the European countries that undertook such an action.” However, there’s probably nothing in the way of European military assets for the Islamic Republic to sanction, so this ‘action’ by Tehran will remain largely symbolic. Iran does have assets held in various places of Europe though. EU foreign ministers agreed on Thursday to formally classify the IRGC as a “terrorist organization” and urged member states to implement the designation without delay – after a few longtime holdouts flipped. source: zerohedge.com [DS] Agenda https://twitter.com/rhodeislander/status/2017361344018739231?s=20 https://twitter.com/nicksortor/status/2017331445195211254?s=20   at Place of Worship COUNT 2: 18 U.S.C. § 248(a) (b), § §2(a) – FACE Act: Injure, Intimidate, and Interfere with Exercise of Right of Religious Freedom at a Place of Worship.

Maxine Waters (D-CA) was in Los Angeles on Friday, inciting her radical left followers to riot against law enforcement before several were arrested.  Rioters were seen hurling objects at shielded federal agents who pushed back with pepper balls and nonlethal munitions. Via ABC 7: Anti-ICE Rioters Clash with Federal Agents and Local Police Outside Los Angeles ICE Facility Eventually, the rioters moved a dumpster toward the entrance of the ICE detention facility and set it ablaze. Over 100 Los Angeles Police officers reportedly responded in riot gear to quell the violence. Multiple videos circulating on social media show Maxine Waters at the front lines of the riot as leftists were told to disperse for surrounding the federal building, trespassing on federal property, and later assaulting federal officers. After pepper spray was deployed, Waters returned to the front of the riot with a mask and continued leading the insurrection. Waters was seen pulling up to the scene early in the day in a black SUV before stepping out to rally her troops, flailing her arms and leading chants of “ICE Out of LA.” Source: thegatewaypundit.com https://twitter.com/DOGEai_tx/status/2017736355665641700?s=20   Martinez's gang alliance pitch isn't just reckless; it's a calculated distraction from ICE's indiscriminate sweeps that tear families apart over paperwork. Federal law requires deportation for specific crimes, yet bureaucrats weaponize broad mandates to meet quotas. The solution? Enforce existing laws precisely, stop manufacturing crises, and end the performative politics that put both officers and communities at risk.

Republicans, don't let these Crooked Democrats, who are stealing Billions of Dollars from Minnesota, and other Cities and States from all over the Country, push you around. They are using this aggressive protest SCAM to obfuscate, camouflage, and hide their CRIMINAL ACTS of theft and insurrection. They should all be in jail. I was elected on Strong Borders, and Law and Order, among many other things. Thank you to Secretary Kristi Noem. Remember, ELECTIONS HAVE CONSEQUENCES!!! PRESIDENT DONALD J. TRUMP     Federal Government Property. There will be no spitting in the faces of our Officers, there will be no punching or kicking the headlights of our cars, and there will be no rock or brick throwing at our vehicles, or at our Patriot Warriors. If there is, those people will suffer an equal, or more, consequence. In the meantime, by copy of this Statement, I am informing Local Governments, as I did in Los Angeles when they were rioting at the end of the Biden Term, that you must protect your own State and Local Property. In addition, it is your obligation to also protect our Federal Property, Buildings, Parks, and everything else. We are there to protect Federal Property, only as a back up, in that it is Local and State Responsibility to do so. Last night in Eugene, Oregon, these criminals broke into a Federal Building, and did great damage, also scaring and harassing the hardworking employees. Local Police did nothing in order to stop it. We will not let that happen anymore! If Local Governments are unable to handle the Insurrectionists, Agitators, and Anarchists, we will immediately go to the location where such help is requested, and take care of the situation very easily and methodically, just as we did the Los Angeles Riots one year ago, where the Police Chief said that, “We couldn't have done it without the help of the Federal Government.” Therefore, to all complaining Local Governments, Governors, and Mayors, let us know when you are ready, and we will be there — But, before we do so, you must use the word, “PLEASE.” Remember that I stated, in the strongest of language, to BEWARE — ICE, Border Patrol or, if necessary, our Military, will be extremely powerful and tough in the protection of our Federal Property. We will not allow our Courthouses, Federal Buildings, or anything else under our protection, to be damaged in any way, shape, or form. I was elected on a Policy of Border Control (which has now been perfected!), National Security, and LAW AND ORDER — That's what America wants, and that's what America is getting! Thank you for your attention to this matter.   PRESIDENT DONALD J. TRUMP he will use DHS/ICE and, if necessary, the US MIL to protect federal property. It sounds like Trump knows something is coming. It sounds like the Dems want DHS/ICE to get caught up in policing these riots, hoping more of their deranged followers take it too far and get shot. Trump is instead going to hold and force local Democrat politicians to police their own riots, or agree to work with him. And if the Dems choose to not police these riots, they will force Trump to use the US MIL to suppress the chaos.  https://twitter.com/unseen1_unseen/status/2017334056292143173?s=20 https://twitter.com/StephenM/status/2017585812599087241?s=20   EXCLUSIVE: Atlanta Field Office Special Agent in Charge Allegedly Removed For Slow-Walking Election Fraud Investigation  Reports are emerging on social media that Paul Brown, the FBI Special Agent in Charge at the Atlanta Field Office, was “forced out of that job earlier this month,” according to MSNOW's Ken Dilanian. According to MSNOW, Brown “was forced out this month after questioning the Justice Department's renewed push to probe Fulton County's role in the 2020 election” after “expressing concern” about “unsubstantiated allegations of voter fraud” in Fulton County.
