NLW returns with a jam-packed Friday Five (or Friday 500) to break down the biggest crypto week of the summer. The Genius and Clarity Acts both pass the House with overwhelming bipartisan support—marking the first major crypto legislation on its way to becoming law. Trump floats a retirement-focused crypto investment EO, while the total crypto market cap tops $4 trillion and Ethereum ETFs begin to shine. Meanwhile, a dormant Bitcoin whale awakens, moving billions, raising speculation about Roger Ver or Adam Back. Plus: the U.S. Marshals' BTC holdings spark FOIA drama, and Trump fires up the Fed chaos machine with Powell threats. A defining week in crypto's march to legitimacy. Enjoying this content?

​Judicial Watch has filed a lawsuit against the U.S. Department of Justice (DOJ) for allegedly failing to comply with multiple Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) requests concerning Jeffrey Epstein's associates and clients. The conservative watchdog group submitted four FOIA requests between February and March 2025 to various DOJ components, including the Office of Information Policy, the Criminal Division, the Executive Office for U.S. Attorneys, and the FBI. These requests sought records related to Epstein's activities and communications involving Attorney General Pam Bondi and FBI Director Kash Patel regarding the handling and potential release of Epstein-related documents. Despite acknowledgments and assigned tracking numbers, Judicial Watch claims the DOJ has failed to provide the requested information or justify any withholdings, prompting the lawsuit filed on April 8, 2025, in the U.S. District Court for the District of Columbia.The lawsuit references a February 24, 2025, Fox News report in which Attorney General Bondi stated that Epstein's client list was "sitting on [her] desk." However, a subsequent DOJ document release on February 27, 2025, was criticized for lacking substantive revelations, as it primarily listed already known associates of Epstein. Judicial Watch argues that the DOJ's actions violate FOIA and hinder public transparency regarding Epstein's network. The organization seeks a court order compelling the DOJ to conduct thorough searches for responsive records, produce all non-exempt documents, and provide explanations for any withholdings. Additionally, Judicial Watch requests that the court enjoin the DOJ from further withholding non-exempt records and award attorney's fees and litigation costs incurred due to the DOJ's non-compliance.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:DOJ allegedly violating FOIA over Jeffrey Epstein files

Lawrence O'Donnell uses his prime time on MSNBC to float a wild theory that JD Vance is trying to use the Wall Street Journal's "reporting" about an Epstein birthday card to push Trump out of office. A FOIA request reveals Joe Biden's EPA and Norfolk Southern tampered with soil samples in East Palestine Ohio. CBS sacks Stephen Colbert citing money problems and the media go bonkers. Trump pulls the plug on California's high speed rail boondoggle.

In this episode of SITREP, CannCon and Alpha Warrior are joined by special guest Reeve Swainston for a raw, detailed discussion on the collapse of American institutions and the global stage being set for high-stakes accountability. Reeve unpacks his own background and recent suspensions from Twitter for posting FOIA-verified evidence, highlighting how the regime suppresses truth while enabling war criminals and open-border chaos. The conversation exposes how U.S. taxpayer dollars are flowing to illegal immigrants, how mass migration is being used as a psychological weapon, and how both federal agencies and local governments are complicit. The trio also covers war crimes in Gaza, Ukraine, and Yemen, tying together human trafficking, medical corruption, and globalist goals for depopulation and control. With sharp insight and mounting evidence, the hosts argue we're witnessing a coordinated takedown of sovereign nations through lawfare, demoralization, and deception. But they also point to signs of awakening, within the public and the system itself. This episode is a wake-up call packed with receipts, exposing the real enemy and the lengths they'll go to in order to maintain the illusion.

171,000 Bitcoin... gone. A bombshell FOIA request reveals the U.S. Marshals only hold 28,988 BTC—raising serious questions: where's the rest? No audit. No transparency. That's over $20B missing as America debates a strategic Bitcoin reserve. At the same time, Congress pushes back on CBDCs, Vanguard's hand is forced into BTC exposure, and MicroStrategy inches toward the S&P 500. This isn't just a bull market—it's the unraveling of the old system. Bitcoin is the signal.SPONSORS

Tom Fitton, president of Judicial Watch is making a FOIA request for the Jeffrey Epstein case. Fitton states it's the simplest, most reliable way to give the people what they want and show transparency with the Trump administration.

Fitton is also leading the charge against the DOJ/FBI for the Biden lawfare against President Trump leading up the the election. Judicial Watch is also suing the DOJ Biden pardons, particularly Hunter Biden's padon for "undefined crimes" going back a decade, calling the pardon completely invalid. Zohran Mamdani went to Washington D.C. to meet with Democratic leaders as he leads in the polls in the NYC Mayoral race.

El arreglo por el campo y es residente permanente. ¿El califica para volverse ciudadano sin examen? ¿Cuál es el primer paso y cuanto tarda? Pregunta:        Una colega quien trabaja conmigo tiene la visa U por su esposo y dice que una abogada le dijo que el – el esposo que la golpeo, puede entrar con ella en la petición de residencia cuando a ella le toque aplicar. ¿Eso es verdad, oh la abogada le mintió? Pregunta:        ¿Cuánto tiempo se lleva para que el gobierno responda un pedido FOIA?Pregunta:        ¿Dónde se pagan las fianzas de inmigración y cuanto tiempo tiene una familiar para pagarla? Pregunta:        Yo tengo mi proceso de estatus U pendiente. Mi abogada me hizo el pedido de permiso de viaje, pero eso fue en diciembre. Me dijo que no le ha llegado nada, pero, aunque llegue, yo no debo salir de EE. UU. ¿Es verdad que es peligroso salir? ¿Puedo cancelar esa aplicación porque no quiero tener problemas?Pregunta:        ¿Se puede aplicar para el estatus U o T en un caso de fraude que ya está en investigación? ¿Se puede aplicar, aunque todavía no haya dado fallo la corte sobre el caso? Pregunta:        Yo tengo una petición familiar aprobada y esto esperando la decisión del perdón I-601A por presencia indocumentada. También tengo una I-212 aprobada que solicite porque tengo una orden de salida voluntaria del 2010 que no respete. Yo tengo un permiso de trabajo (seguramente c14) pero ICE me puso un grillete y tengo corte para quitar la orden de deportación que ahora tengo por no haber cumplido con la orden de salida voluntaria en el 2010. ¿Cres que me pueden deportar?

Brett Carollo, a dear friend of the show, joins us today to discuss his deep research into the connections between Hollywood and NASA (the U.S. government's space program). Hans Utter joins us for the first hour as well to contribute some questions to the conversation. NASA, like Hollywood is used for the management of perceptions. Government lies need a large team to roll them out and prop them up. No wonder Hollywood and NASA play so well together.Brett brings tons of information to share with us, including the results of his countless FOIA requests on the subject. We also discuss a long list of films which were all the result of NASA's collaborations with Hollywood, from Fly Me To The Moon (2024) to Flight Of The Navigator (1986). Brett shows us how NASA's real mission seems to actually be Public Relations and Culture Creation. Which is not surprising to the regular listeners, I'm sure.Find Brett Carollo's work here:https://decoding-culture.com/https://decoding-culture.com/cultural-engineering-studies-issue-2/https://decoding-culture.com/ces-issue-2/https://www.patreon.com/c/PsyopCinemahttps://psyop-cinema.com/https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/psyop-cinema--5077189Find Hans Utter here:https://hansutter.com/https://music.amazon.co.uk/podcasts/be54d39f-c608-4850-92ad-93baed5856f5/eyes-wide-openPlease donate to Sean McCann & Wake the Dead⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://onegreatworknetwork.com/sean-mccann/donate/⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠BTC (bitcoin) address: 3Ptmi463Pu6HH1duop7rCKaxBriQkb4ina⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.buymeacoffee.com/wakethedead⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.paypal.com/paypalme/seanmccannabis⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Visit Wake the Dead's store!⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://wakethedead.creator-spring.com/⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Find Sean McCann on X:⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://twitter.com/SeanWakeTheDead⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Join the Wake the Dead telegram:⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://t.me/wakethedeadpodcast⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Join the Wake the Dead guilded server:⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.guilded.gg/i/kJWaQzmp⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠

This week, Scott sat down with fellow Senior Editors Molly Reynolds and Alan Rozenshtein to talk through the week's big national security news, including:“One Bill to rule them all, One Bill to find them, One Bill to bring them all and in the darkness bind them.” Republicans in Congress narrowly enacted President Trump's “One Big Beautiful Bill” last week, just in advance of the July 4 deadline he had set early in the year. What will its contents mean for elements of Trump's national security agenda, including his immigration policies? And what does it say about his influence over fellow Republicans in Congress?“Even a Stopped Clock is Right More Often Than This Letter.” In response to a FOIA lawsuit, the Justice Department has released copies of the letters that it sent to tech companies regarding President Trump's pause on the enforcement of a statute intended to curtail TikTok's availability in the United States. In the letter, the Trump administration not only suggests that the law may unconstitutionally interfere with the president's authority over foreign affairs, but suggests that the president can “waive” the enforcement of civil penalties and otherwise commit not to enforce the law for certain periods of conduct. How persuasive are these legal arguments? And what explains tech companies' willingness to rely on them?“Nationwide, Not On Your Side.” At the end of its term last week, the Supreme Court issued a long-awaited decision in the birthright citizenship cases, wherein it sided with the Trump administration in ending the practice of “universal” (or nationwide) injunctions pursued by lower courts in many cases regarding challenges to government conduct. What with this holding mean, both for the birthright citizenship cases and for the broader legal system moving forward?In object lessons, Alan marveled at the majesty of Cranbrook Schools during a recent trip to Michigan.

01:03:15 – 01:17:32“One Big Beautiful Bill”: Budget, Amnesty, and Economic FalloutThe new budget bill extends Trump-era tax cuts, slashes welfare and Medicaid, raises defense spending, and increases the debt ceiling by $5 trillion. Critics warn it frontloads benefits and delays cuts, triggering a fiscal cliff by 2028. Despite MAGA promises, the bill includes talk of amnesty and centralizes more power in federal hands. 01:18:29 – 01:21:28Military Budget Passes $1 Trillion MarkThe bill allocates $150 billion in extra military funding, bringing the 2026 military budget to over $1 trillion. Funding priorities include a proposed “Golden Dome” defense system and additional missile stockpiles, sparking concern over boondoggles and unnecessary militarism. 01:29:29 – 01:43:58Inalienable Rights, Tyranny, and the Spirit of 1776A commentary explores the erosion of civil liberties under expanding executive power, comparing modern policies to British tyranny before the American Revolution. Topics include surveillance, indefinite detention, censorship, and the decline of constitutional protections. 01:52:33 – 01:55:35Antidepressant-Linked Suicide and Pfizer LawsuitA widow recounts her husband's suicide shortly after starting Zoloft, leading to a lawsuit against Pfizer. She uncovers internal documents revealing the pharmaceutical company's knowledge of associated risks, sparking wider criticism of industry secrecy. 01:55:35 – 02:00:26Leaked Memo: Pharma Lobby Plots to Silence RFK Jr.A biotech industry memo details efforts to remove RFK Jr. from public discourse due to his challenge to pharmaceutical narratives.

Funding priorities include a proposed “Golden Dome” defense system and additional missile stockpiles, sparking concern over boondoggles and unnecessary militarism. 01:29:29 – 01:43:58Inalienable Rights, Tyranny, and the Spirit of 1776A commentary explores the erosion of civil liberties under expanding executive power, comparing modern policies to British tyranny before the American Revolution.

Kenneth was last on Season 2, Episodes 108, 122 and 148, Season 3, Episode 98, Season 4, Episodes 5, 64 and 212.            "CHILD PSYCHOLOGICAL ABUSE, The essential Guide to Stopping Parental Alienation In Its Tracks! A step-by-step strategy for parents and lawyers to end child psychological abuse and fight back against family court corruption."     We discussed the usage of the term PA and that it is truly, and should be called, Child Psychological Abuse. We also discussed the pitfalls of Kayden's law and what a "shared persecutory delusion" is and a "false factitious belief..." Custodial Interference and Child Psychological abuse go hand in hand and should be taken seriously by law enforcement and Kenneth offered suggestions on how this can be done.To Reach Ken Gottfried or get his books: childabusivejudges.comSupportshow(https://www.buymeacoffee.com/maryannpetri)Maryann Petri: dismantlingfamilycourtcorruption.comhttps://www.tiktok.com/@maryannpetriFacebook:  https://www.youtube.com/@slamthegavelpodcasthostmar5536Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/guitarpeace/Pinterest: Slam The Gavel Podcast/@guitarpeaceLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/maryann-petri-62a46b1ab/  YouTube:  https://www.youtube.com/@slamthegavelpodcasthostmar5536  Twitter https://x.com/PetriMaryannEzlegalsuit.com   https://ko-fi.com/maryannpetrihttps://www.zazzle.com/store/slam_the_gavel/about*DISCLAIMER* The use of this information is at the viewer/user's own risk.

To start the show off today, we re-visit the claims made against Buffalo Public Schools by Richard Hy. As it turns out, as WBEN uncovered via a FOIA request, a rape did take place at McKinley High School recently. Knowing that now, if you didn't believe Detective Hy before, do you now? Also, we'd be remiss if we didn't cover some Independence Day topics, including a Facebook post where someone questions if they will fly the American Flag this 4th of July, and what your lineage has contributed to American history. Also discussed today, Congress has passed the Big Beautiful Bill, and a dog was fatally shot and killed by a Buffalo police officer.

“He didn't say he wanted to die. He said he didn't give an F about dying. That's different.” — Victoria Camille. In this powerful and deeply sobering episode of the Detroit is Different podcast, host Khary Frazier sits down with Victoria Camille of the Coalition for Police Transparency and Accountability (CPTA) to examine the disturbing details surrounding the July 12, 2024, shooting death of Sherman Lee Butler. “Nothing about this looks like self-defense to me.” — Khary Frazier. Sherman Butler was killed during an eviction at his apartment on Manderson St., near Palmer Park in Detroit. He was tased by Detroit Police officers and then fatally shot by a Wayne County Bailiff—while recovering from foot surgery and experiencing mental distress. “We all have a story. Show compassion. Sherman deserved to live.” — Victoria Camille What You'll Learn in This Episode: Detailed Analysis of the Footage: Victoria Camille and Khary Frazier analyze the DPD-released bodycam footage, breaking down how the incident escalated—despite clear protocol violations. Critical Facts Revealed: The bailiff used a DPD-issued radio improperly. DPD officers did not follow policy requiring them to control the scene. Mental health teams were called but failed to respond promptly. Tasers were used on a person visibly in mental and physical distress—against DPD policy. A DPD officer read the eviction notice, an act outside of their scope. “Nothing about this looks like self-defense to me.” — Khary Frazier “This wasn't just a policy failure; it was a moral one.” — Victoria Camille After Months of Advocacy: The community organized protests, FOIA requests (led by Taura Brown), and weekly meetings demanding transparency. On December 23, 2024, a partial video was finally released. Victoria Camille's Op-Ed led to a formal Citizen Complaint, triggering a deeper investigation by the Board of Police Commissioners' Office of the Chief Investigator. Policy Violations Found: At least 10 DPD policy violations identified by the OCI. Mental health co-response teams were eating at McDonald's while the call was active. The bailiff continued to conduct evictions after the shooting. What the Community Demands: Accountability from DPD, Wayne County Prosecutor, and the media. Clarity on reforms for Bailiffs and Officers. Passage of the Video Release Ordinance by MLK Day 2026—requiring release of all use-of-force videos within 7-37 days. Stay Informed. Stay Active. Share This. This episode isn't easy to hear—but it's necessary. Join us in healing community through truth, culture, and advocacy.

Congressman Burgess Owens joins to discuss the big, beautiful bill making its way through Congress, which encompasses various aspects of President Trump's agenda, including tax cuts and immigration enforcement. One of the significant provisions is the school choice tax credit, aimed at empowering parents and enhancing educational options for their children. Congressman Owens passionately advocates for middle-class families, emphasizing the importance of choice and accountability in education. He also addresses the recent Supreme Court ruling on parental rights in education, highlighting the growing frustration among parents regarding public school curricula. Mike Howell, President of the Oversight Project, discusses the recent revelations from a trove of documents obtained through a FOIA request. Howell sheds light on potential conflicts within the DOJ regarding Hunter Biden's legal issues and the alleged insider dealings of the Biden administration. Finally, AMAC spokesman and a Republican candidate for governor of Maine Bobby Charles joins for his weekly segment and shares his insights on recent Supreme Court decisions affecting immigration policies, the challenges of border security, and his vision for revitalizing the state.

Brett recently made an appearance on William Ramsey Investigates with top Hollywood-DC researcher and writer Matthew Alford to discuss the murder of deep state-connected Hollywood screenwriter Gary DeVore. Brett interviewed Alford about his 2016 book on the DeVore case—The Writer with No Hands—for the latest issue of Cultural Engineering Studies. The discussion on the show touches on Hollywood's vast relationship to the federal government and the clandestine world more broadly, as well as the history and challenges of using FOIA (the Freedom of Information Act) to obtain documents from the government regarding its collaborations with the entertainment industry.Note: The livestream of this conversation experienced some audio issues, such issues have been edited out as much as possible https://drmattalford.substack.com/https://www.youtube.com/@DrMatthewAlfordhttps://www.amazon.com/Writer-No-Hands-Pocket-sized/dp/1530649870/https://www.williamramseyinvestigates.com/https://decoding-culture.com/cultural-engineering-studies-issue-2/https://decoding-culture.com/cultural-engineering-studies-issue-2/#interview-with-matthew-alfordhttps://twitter.com/CinemaPsyophttps://www.patreon.com/PsyopCinemahttp://psyop-cinema.com/https://linktr.ee/psyopcinemathomas-psyopcinema@protonmail.combrett-psyopcinema@protonmail.com

When Trump Couldn't Deport, He BombedTariffs blocked. Deportations sandbagged. So he reached for the B‑2s.It's easy to see Trump's June 2025 bombing of Iranian nuclear sites as yet another episode of MAGA theater—rage, firepower, and a dramatic “message sent.” But this time, it wasn't just for show. This was an act of geopolitical spite born from domestic paralysis. Trump, denied the ability to wage his preferred internal war—on undocumented immigrants, on tariffs, on the bureaucracy—chose instead to unleash a foreign one. If he couldn't stimulate the economy through deportation logistics and tariff revenue, he'd do it through the defense budget.Trump's economic nationalism has never required foreign conquest. He intended to stimulate the economy by taxing imports, expelling millions of undocumented immigrants, and redirecting federal spending into buses, lawyers, detention centers, and federal contractors. Like the Marshall Plan or post-9/11 Homeland Security boom—but pointed inward. That vision, however controversial, was internally coherent. But it collapsed under the weight of injunctions and process lawfare.While Obama removed over 3 million people, many via expedited removal, he was never seriously challenged by courts. But when Trump tried to expand expedited removal to cover undocumented individuals who had been in the U.S. for under two years, he was blocked by courts demanding hearings and extended due process. The same statutory tools were treated differently depending on who wielded them.Stripped of the tools used by every prior “Deporter-in-Chief,” Trump pivoted to the one realm where injunctions have no reach: foreign policy. And in the Middle East, he still had one friend—Israel. Surrounded by adversaries at home and abroad, Trump leaned into his relationship with Netanyahu, using Iran as a stand-in for every institution that blocked him at home.So came Operation Midnight Hammer. B-2 bombers dropped bunker-busting payloads on Fordow, Natanz, and Isfahan. These were not just tactical targets—they were symbolic, theatrical, and strategic. It was a clear message to allies and enemies: if I can't fix the country my way, I'll make my power felt overseas.War is bipartisan. It doesn't get bogged down in courtrooms or FOIA requests. Unlike mass deportation—which would have required years of hearings and billions in logistics—bombing Iran took hours, not lawsuits.This wasn't just a military decision—it was a political workaround. When the courts took away his buses and judges and deportation raids, Trump gave the defense contractors what they wanted instead. Foreign war became his fallback stimulus.If America won't allow a domestic war on illegals, maybe it'll settle for a traditional one abroad. Either way, the spending flows.

A FOIA request has revealed that Missouri spent $30.1 million in NIL this past year. We break it down by month, debate whether or not we'll see more figures revealed, and if it's a good thing that the numbers came out.

I'm your host Matthew Larosiere and I'm joined by the ratman. - Rare Breed's aggressive litigation tactics and questionable patent claims have led to widespread criticism and legal challenges, highlighting the potential for abuse within the patent system. - A recent ATF letter regarding the improper pinning and welding of a Beretta 71 barrel extension has been misinterpreted and sensationalized by gun rights groups, causing unnecessary panic among gun owners. - The Supreme Court's unanimous decision in favor of Smith & Wesson against the Mexican government's lawsuit underscores the protection provided by the Protection of Lawful Commerce in Arms Act, though it also reveals the court's hesitancy to address broader Second Amendment issues promptly.

The world learned Thursday night that Brian O'Connor, who had signed an extension with UVA just last June that paid him $1.4 million a year, making him the eight-highest-paid coach in college baseball, is now the second-highest-paid coach in college baseball, at $2.9 million a year. Mississippi State Athletics went out of its way to make this public – which is to say, they didn't make reporters file a FOIA request and wait five days to get a copy of the term sheet. The former Mississippi Agricultural & Mechanical College wanted everybody to know that it had poached its new baseball coach from a blue blood with a $14.2 billion endowment. The shocking annual salary, and four-year contract, puts a different perspective on the hue and cry from O'Connor from last fall and into the spring about Carla Williams not being willing to give him the resources he needed to be able to compete.

On this June 2nd episode of The Daily Herold, Jon Herold delivers a rapid-fire roundup of stories shaping the week, from Musk vs. Bessant over Doge and Soros jabs to the quiet corporate retreat from Pride Month campaigns. He unpacks the growing backlash against DEI programs, critiques media manipulation surrounding Ukraine and Trump's role as a peacemaker, and digs into Palantir's alarming centralization of citizen data. Jon also explores a major cover-up in East Palestine, where new FOIA docs expose early government knowledge of cancer risks. Other highlights include a historic visit from Saudi leadership to the West Bank, a Navy SEAL named to the Joint Chiefs, exercise outperforming drugs in cancer recovery, and Marco Rubio's call to confront global censorship. Jon balances heavy topics with lighthearted commentary and personal anecdotes, wrapping with a reminder to stay alert amid growing efforts to erode free speech through fear-driven narratives.

Welcome to this explosive edition of Light ‘Em Up!In these critical and delicate times that we find ourselves in — democracy is in clear and present danger.As nothing feels certain or safe and everything appears to be in “transition” we interrogate and examine the Trump Administration and its efforts to suspend the “great writ” of Habeas corpus.Habeas corpus is a legal doctrine whose original purpose was to contest detention by the king. The origins of the writ, or “written order” (its Latin name means, loosely, “produce the body”), can be traced to 13th century England.On June 15, 1215, at Runnymede, the barons who had banded together to impose legal restrictions on King John's power forced him to affix his seal to the Magna Carta.One of its curbs on the sovereign's power reads, in part, “No free man shall be seized or imprisoned…except by the lawful judgment of his equals or by the law of the land.”The writ of habeas corpus appears in the U.S. Constitution. Article 1, section 9, clause 2 includes this single sentence: “The Privilege of the Writ of Habeas Corpus shall not be suspended, unless when in Cases of Rebellion or Invasion the public Safety may require it.”Habeas corpus requires a jailer to produce a prisoner in a court of law so the basis for detention can be reviewed. The Constitution presupposes this right, but its use has been sharply restricted during past wars.Fast forward to the present, as Donald Trump continues on his “revenge tour” — his administration has shown itself to be big on conducting legal proceedings without due process for the defendants it pursues, just as George W. Bush did with “enemy combatants” at Guantanamo Bay, Cuba, post 9-11.The Trump White House continues to break things like “Wreck it Ralph”— and has floated the idea of suspending Habeas corpus in the context of an “alien invasion” as it pertains to immigration, sparking widespread and grave concerns about the erosion of fundamental rights and the separation of powers.With mass deportations taking place without due process and the suspension of Habeas corpus, the rule of law and democracy itself is under a serious threat.While the Constitution allows for the suspension of Habeas corpus in cases of rebellion or invasion where the public safety is at stake, it is a power that must be exercised sparingly and only in extraordinary circumstances. Circumstances that we clearly are NOT in.With this probing, penetrating and pointed look … we ask out loud if we are on a collision course with the tyranny that brought about a coup d' état in Chile in 1973, where the military ousted then President Allende, General Agusto Pinochet seized power, democracy collapsed and repression, murder and great suffering followed (all backed and funded by the US CIA & State Department in the Nixon administration).As we challenge you to think critically, we probe further, examining the historical suspension of Habeas corpus, we think you'll be surprised to hear that one of the Presidents considered to be the “GOAT” (greatest of all time) suspended the writ of Habeas corpus, and we'll deliver the facts not the fiction surrounding this.We'll itemize some of the “pitfalls” and potential terrible consequences of decisions such as this, as we've learned through a FOIA request that the FBI has ordered its agents to scale back white-collar crime investigations to pursue more immigration crime instead.The rule of law and democracy are endangered!Previous Supreme Courts have held in reverence and referred to Habeas corpus as, “the fundamental instrument for safeguarding individual freedom against arbitrary and lawless state action.”The current Supreme Court has been at best tepid in its support and defense of the U.S. ConWe want to hear from you!

In the first segment of today's Project Censored, Mickey welcomes back Lauren Harper and Seth Stern from the Freedom of the Press Foundation. They discuss several matters including their latest FOIA work on how the Trump administration has been treating immigrants, students and other vulnerable groups across the country. They provide an update on Tufts student Rümeysa Öztürk and her release from detention in Louisiana, as well as updates on attacks on non-profits and the press at large, including attacks on major establishment media outlets. Later in the program, Mickey welcomes back the iconic attorney and prolific author Ralph Nader. They discuss his new book, out from Seven Stories Press, Civic Self-Respect. It's a how-to guide on being a more meaningfully engaged citizen with steps anyone can use to fight against growing authoritarianism in the U.S. and how we can create a more robust and representational democratic republic and protect our civil liberties before it's too late. GUESTS: Lauren Harper is Daniel Ellsberg Chair on Government Secrecy at the Freedom of the Press Foundation (www.freedom.press). Seth Stern is Director of Advocacy, also at the Freedom of the Press Foundation. Founded in 2012, the Foundation is a non-profit organization that defends both freedom of the press and freedom of speech. Among its projects is the Press Freedom tracker, a database of press-freedom violations in the U.S. Ralph Nader's name has been a household word in the US since the 1960s. His activism has covered issues from product safety to health-care policy, and he has founded multiple public-interest organizations.   The post Defending Freedom of Speech and Civil Rights Against Trump / Ralph Nader on “Civic Self-Respect” appeared first on KPFA.

Investigative journalists Mandy Matney and Liz Farrell and attorney Eric Bland pull back the curtain on disturbing issues in Horry County, South Carolina. Our team narrows focus to Weldon Boyd's troubling narrative, detailing how Boyd admittedly followed Scott Spivey before the fatal shooting. The hosts dissect the circumstances, questioning the application of "Stand Your Ground" given Weldon's decision to pursue Scott onto Camp Swamp Road. We'll also lob criticisms at the press, particularly local media in Horry County, for initial "basic" reporting and for not aggressively pursuing the story. And we'll touch on the lack of accountability for Horry County police leadership, challenges with FOIA redactions, and the political reluctance of state officials like the Governor to intervene.  While the growing public outcry from Horry County residents demanding change offers a glimmer of hope, these circumstances paint a vivid picture of systemic failures, a lack of accountability, and the ongoing struggle for transparency and justice in Horry County. Knowing Horry County's heavy reliance on tourism dollars means these issues of safety and public trust have significant economic stakes. ☕ Cups Up!  ⚖️ Episode References A warning for potential South Carolina tourists: You may not be safe “In Stores, Secret Surveillance Tracks Your Every Move” - The New York Times, from The Privacy Project Series “Why U.S. air traffic control is stretched so thin — and the fight to fix it” - CNBC, Updated May 10, 2025 “Your Apps Know Where You Were Last Night, and They're Not Keeping It Secret” - The New York Times, Dec. 10, 2018 Parts of a Springfield XDM Pistol “Letting retirees double-dip is the wrong way to keep SC teachers in the classroom” - The State, March 27, 2018 FBI as Primary Investigators of Civil Right Violations Horry County PD Facebook Post with Pamela Evette - May 9, 2025 “Are Agencies Required to Release Body-Worn Camera Footage” - Municipal Association of South Carolina Upcoming Events Michael Colucci re-trial set to begin on June 16th, 2025 Walking With Stephen event on July 12th Stay Tuned, Stay Pesky and Stay in the Sunlight...☀️ ⁠⁠Premium Members⁠⁠ also get access to episode videos, case files, live trial coverage and exclusive live experiences with our hosts. ⁠⁠CLICK HERE⁠⁠ to learn more: ⁠⁠https://bit.ly/3BdUtOE⁠⁠.
