This is a guided somatic session.Not a concept. Not a teaching. A practice — for your nervous system.When the freeze response hits, your thinking brain goes offline. Words don't help. Understanding doesn't help. What helps is giving the body a different signal. Today's episode guides you through a somatic practice designed to thaw the freeze response in real time.Drawing on the principles of Somatic Experiencing and polyvagal theory, this session works directly with your body's capacity to shift from shutdown to regulation — without forcing, without effort, without "trying to calm down."It's a practice you can return to whenever pressure overwhelms your ability to think clearly.Each time you do it, the pathway gets stronger.If you want to explore a deeper experience with Somatics, then you can download the free 3 Day Reset to transform your relationship with your nervous system.Download it here. And if you noticed something today — something in the body, something that shifted — I'd love to hear about it. Not the insight. The sensation. You can leave a comment below. No names needed. And remember, you don't have to chase anything. You just have to let your body know it's already here. #SomaticFrequency #ThawingTheFreeze #SomaticPractice #NervousSystemRegulation #FreezeResponse

Did you know that past trauma can make you react in ways you do not fully understand? Humans have four typical reactions to frightening situations. They are: fight, flight, freeze, or fawn. But God's Word can heal you!In this episode, we talk honestly about trauma responses through a Christian lens without making the conversation mystical, trendy, or anti-biblical. Trauma is not rare, and many people carry the effects of painful experiences into later relationships, conflicts, and fears. Whether your response looks like anger, avoidance, freezing, or fawning, this conversation helps you begin to name what is happening with clarity and compassion.As we examine the four common trauma responses: fight, flight, freeze, and fawn. We also look at biblical examples of each. Specifically, Peter, Jonah, Job, and Abraham to see how real people respond to fear, threat, grief, and pressure. Most importantly, this episode points toward hope: healing from trauma happens in the ultimate safe relationship with Jesus.We never need to protect ourselves from Him. And God also uses the body of Christ, trusted pastors, counselors, and safe Christian friends to help us relearn that not everyone is unsafe.If you feel stuck in fear, withdrawal, anger, shutdown, or people-pleasing, this episode is not here to shame you. It is here to help you take one honest next step toward healing, freedom, and deeper trust in God.SUBSCRIBE to our channel / @binmin_org JOIN the NEWSLETTER at https://binmin.org/newsletter/SUPPORT Binmin with a tax-deductible gift HERE - https://binmin.org/donate00:00 Why Your Trauma Response Still Shows Up01:04 What Trauma Does to Your Sense of Safety01:40 What Are Trauma Responses?02:41 Is Talking About Trauma Biblical?03:35 Fight, Flight, Freeze, and Fawn03:42 Fight: When You React with Force05:01 Flight: When You Run from Pain06:18 Freeze: When You Shut Down07:42 Fawn: When People-Pleasing Feels Safe09:56 What Do We Do with These Patterns?10:14 Healing Happens in Safe Relationships11:32 God Is the Ultimate Safe Relationship12:44 Healing in the Body of Christ13:39 How to Recognize a Safe Person14:42 Your Next Step Toward Healing15:57 Subscribe and Find Your Next StepJOIN the NEWSLETTER.

It's possibly the oldest question in all of Toy Story - If Buzz Lightyear really thinks he is a Space Ranger, then why does he freeze when, Andy is the room. Certainly this would tip him off that he's a toy right? Is it just a part of his space ranger training? Is it fight or flight? Thanks to Toy Story 5, we may have finally gotten an answer to this question after 30 years of wondering! #Pixar #ToyStory #SuperCarlinBrothers
New York City's Rent Guidelines Board just voted 7-1 to freeze rents on nearly one million rent-stabilized apartments — and the lone dissenter resigned on the spot. Christina Smith walked out after a board stacked with progressive appointees ignored every piece of cost data put in front of them: rising maintenance bills, property tax increases, insurance spikes. Politicians will call it a historic victory for tenants. It is a slow-motion housing disaster.Rent freezes feel good on a press release and guarantee votes at the next election. What they guarantee over time is deferred maintenance, crumbling buildings, and a city where the incentive to invest in housing disappears entirely. When the freeze eventually lifts — and it always does — landlords who survived will recoup everything, and the tenants who stayed will absorb the shock all at once. The people who needed affordable housing most will find a smaller, worse supply waiting for them.This is the Mamdani-era playbook in action: appoint ideologues to the board, deliver a headline, and let the next generation of renters inherit the wreckage. REBNY president James Whelan called it exactly what it is — a decision that defies economic reality in favor of political theater. When small, family-run landlords can't cover costs they sell, and the buyers who pick up distressed buildings at a discount are not the stewards of quality housing New York needs. Kathy Hochul and the Democrats who enabled this policy own what comes next.Subscribe to @reasonablenews for daily commentary on the stories the mainstream won't frame straight.#Seattle #Socialism #WashingtonPoliticsGO PREMIUM WITH REASONABLE+ FOR UNCENSORED ACCESS
The USMNT's World Cup run comes to a crashing, embarrassing halt after a 4-1 dismantling by Belgium in the Round of 16. Hosts Christian Polanco and Alexis Guerreros try to process a complete tactical and fundamental capitulation on home soil. Despite winning the possession battle with 57%, the Americans looked paralyzed by fear and completely disconnected on the pitch. This allowed a heavily rotated Belgian squad playing without Kevin De Bruyne or Jérémy Doku to exploit amateur defensive errors from start to finish. MLS on Apple TV analyst Taylor Twellman joins the studio to deliver a brutal reality check on the current state of US Soccer. The guys pull no punches dissecting individual disasters, including Sergiño Dest's fatal ball-watching on Belgium's early goals and 38-year-old Tim Ream being targeted and posterized in aerial duels. They also analyze Christian Pulisic's rough night where he was dispossessed 11 times before exiting with a calf injury. This left Malik Tillman as the lone starting bright spot after scoring the USA's solitary goal. Beyond the pitch, the crew debates the psychological toll of the Folarin Balogun red-card reinstatement saga and Donald Trump's external political meddling. Looking ahead to the future, they review Mauricio Pochettino's cryptic post-match comments regarding his uncertain future with the federation. They debate what structural changes—from youth academy coaching overrides to a high-pressure promotion and relegation culture—are desperately needed to bridge the gap between American athleticism and elite international football intelligence. Timestamps: (0:18) – USMNT out of the World Cup: how did the USA capitulate 4-1 to Belgium? (3:07) – Taylor Twellman joins the post-mortem: are we any better than we were 12 years ago?

In this episode, Heather explores one of the most common struggles photographers face: freezing when the perfect opportunity arises to talk about their business. She explains why this hesitation has nothing to do with not knowing what to say—and everything to do with what you're believing in that moment. Through a series of powerful coaching questions, Heather helps you uncover the hidden thoughts that are holding you back so you can replace fear with confidence and start sharing your business more naturally. Key Takeaways: Hesitation starts with a thought—not a lack of words. What you believe in the moment determines whether you speak or stay silent. The Belief Triad is the foundation of confident marketing. Strong belief in yourself, your offer, and your client creates natural conversations. Curiosity is more powerful than self-criticism. Reflecting on why you froze leads to awareness—and awareness leads to change. You're often protecting yourself from imagined rejection. Fear of judgment, embarrassment, or being "salesy" keeps many photographers invisible. Don't decide for your clients. Give people the opportunity to decide if your work is right for them instead of assuming the answer. Connection beats performance. Authentic conversations create far more impact than trying to say the "perfect" thing. Practice builds confidence. Reflecting after conversations helps you prepare for the next opportunity. Your thoughts shape your actions. Changing your internal dialogue changes how you show up externally. Marketing is an act of service. Sharing what you do isn't about convincing people—it's about letting them know you can help. Confidence grows through repetition. Every conversation is an opportunity to strengthen your identity as a business owner. How many opportunities have you missed because fear spoke louder than confidence? The words aren't the problem—the beliefs behind them are. One conversation could change your business... if you're willing to have it. Press play and discover what's really stopping you from sharing your work. How to Support the Podcast: Subscribe to the podcast on iTunes or wherever you listen to podcasts.

You may be shocked to learn that water will freeze faster when it starts hot than when it starts cool. In fact, all of science was shockled to learn this in 1963 when 13 year-old Erasto Mpemba insisted it was true in school.

Regulators try to freeze illicit stablecoins, but the money's usually gone before the freeze lands. The hosts on why crypto sanctions keep failing. Thanks to our sponsor!
You're getting things done. Answering texts, making dinner, showing up. But underneath it you feel wired and flat at the same time, like you're watching your own life through a foot of glass. That's functional freeze: your gas and your brake pressed at once, and "functional" just means you're still getting through the day while it runs. In this episode I break down what freeze actually is, how it's different from burnout, depression, and shutdown, why the two obvious moves (pushing through and checking out) both backfire, and one small orienting practice you can try today to let the brake come off a little.
JOIN THE ACADEMY! VISIT CONCRETESCHOOL.CO TO START LEARNING TODAY. ON THIS EPISODE OF THE CONCRETE LOGIC PODCAST Does exterior concrete always need entrained air to survive freezing and thawing? Seth is joined by Jason Adams, founder and CEO of Mega Slab, to challenge that long-standing practice. Jason argues that a properly designed, highly dense concrete system may limit water intrusion enough to reduce the need for entrained air. Seth presses on the risks, including mix design, workability, finishing, curing, and specification requirements. Jason makes clear that he is not recommending contractors simply remove air from a standard mix. His approach depends on treating the concrete as a complete system. The episode asks a practical question: Should exterior concrete be designed to give freezing water room to expand, or should the priority be keeping water out in the first place? WHAT YOU'LL LEARN What air entrainment is intended to do during freeze-thaw exposureThe difference between entrained air and naturally entrapped airWhy Jason believes entrained air can reduce concrete densityHow dense concrete may limit water and chloride intrusionWhy removing air from a standard exterior mix is not enoughHow aggregate packing and optimized mix designs affect permeabilityWhy air-entrained concrete should not be hard-trowel finishedHow entrained air can affect workability and finishingWhy specifications and established practices may resist this approachWhat field performance Jason has observed in Midwestern pavementsWhy mix design, placement, finishing, curing, and fibers must work as a system CHAPTERS (00:00) Introduction and support for the show (03:24) Jason Adams and the air-void question (04:56) Freeze-thaw testing and ASTM standards (05:46) What air entrainment is designed to do (07:26) Jason challenges the traditional approach (08:52) Can dense concrete keep water out?

Arpit Gupta, a member of the New York City Rent Guidelines Board (RGB) and an associate professor of finance at NYU's Stern School of Business, joined the show to discuss his lone dissenting vote as the RGB approved a rent freeze for rent-stabilized tenants, fulfilling a key campaign promise made in 2025 by Mayor Mamdani. Gupta also discussed a variety of aspects of the city's rent-stabilized housing stock and system, and what comes next for the roughly 1 million rent-stabilized apartments. (Ep 600)
Seth Rogen just told millions of fans that not having kids is the secret to his success — and Marc Cox and Kim St. Onge aren't letting it slide. On this edition of Kim on a Whim, the duo tears apart Rogen's viral podcast moment where he called going childless one of the best decisions of his life, connecting his Hollywood platform to record-low U.S. fertility rates and a culture that increasingly treats children as a burden rather than a blessing. Marc fires back with the real conservative case for having kids — raising them in faith, love of country, and respect for others is exactly how you fight back against the darkness. Then the conversation pivots to New York City's new socialist rent freeze under Mayor Mamdani, Marcus Lemonis bailing on his New York home, and Hassan Piker rallying Denver's newly elected Democratic Socialist — proof that the left's war on families, property rights, and personal responsibility is accelerating. The American family is under attack from Hollywood to City Hall, and Marc and Kim are drawing the line.

Your Nebraska Update headlines for today, July 1, include: Seward County has approved one-year moratorium on new data center development, organizers submit more than enough signatures to place online sports betting on Nebraska's November ballot, constitutional amendment on transgender participation in girls' school sports is submitted with record number of signatures, Attorney General Mike Hilgers approves Nebraska's medical cannabis regulations while maintaining his opposition to legalization, Hilgers says work on Perkins County Canal should continue as Nebraska's water dispute with Colorado heads toward U.S. Supreme Court, historic South Omaha grain silos are set to become 223 market-rate apartments by 2029.
This month Mayor Mamdani implemented a rent freeze for the next two years on rent stabilized apartments. Memories are short. This has been tried before and it was a dismal failure. But this time will be different. You see when property owners have expenses rising including city taxes, insurance, utilities, and rents are legislated to be flat, and you still need to comply with the city's stringent building standards regulations, the math doesn't add up. At a certain point, the owners of these buildings are being legislated into bankruptcy. Most of the city's 1M rent stabilized units are in the Bronx and Northern Manhattan. About 2M residents live in these apartments.The last time this was tried an urban wasteland was the result. The South Bronx was littered with burned out buildings. Desperate building owners found that it was more desirable to collect an insurance settlement than to lose their building to foreclosure. I remember those days well. My family was from NY and there were daily news reports of another fire in the South Bronx which swallowed up a few more buildings.Between 1970 and 1981, the Bronx lost roughly 100,000 housing units to abandonment and arson, approximately one out of every five units in the borough's total housing stock. In 1980 alone there were 8,312 arson fires in NYC. When the rent is frozen, a black market opens up. We saw this in the past. Tenants in a rent stabilized property would choose to sublet their apartment for more than they were paying, but less than a market rate apartment. The large gap between the market rate and the rent stabilized units creates an incentive for this black market to emerge.But no, this time will be different. ------------**Real Estate Espresso Podcast:** Spotify: [The Real Estate Espresso Podcast](https://open.spotify.com/show/3GvtwRmTq4r3es8cbw8jW0?si=c75ea506a6694ef1) iTunes: [The Real Estate Espresso Podcast](https://podcasts.apple.com/ca/podcast/the-real-estate-espresso-podcast/id1340482613) Website: [www.victorjm.com](http://www.victorjm.com) LinkedIn: [Victor Menasce](http://www.linkedin.com/in/vmenasce) YouTube: [The Real Estate Espresso Podcast](http://www.youtube.com/@victorjmenasce6734) Facebook: [www.facebook.com/realestateespresso](http://www.facebook.com/realestateespresso) Email: [podcast@victorjm.com](mailto:podcast@victorjm.com) **Y Street Capital:** Website: [www.ystreetcapital.com](http://www.ystreetcapital.com) Facebook: [www.facebook.com/YStreetCapital](https://www.facebook.com/YStreetCapital) Instagram: [@ystreetcapital](http://www.instagram.com/ystreetcapital)
The U.S. State Department has paused immigrant visa issuance for applicants from 75 countries. This suspension is tied to a government-wide reassessment of how consular officers evaluate public charge risks.

S5 E48 – Why You Shut Down: Freeze, Flop, and Tonic Immobility Explained Have you ever found yourself unable to speak during an important conversation? Staring at your computer for hours without being able to begin? Feeling emotionally numb, disconnected, or frozen even though you desperately want to move forward? These experiences are often misunderstood as laziness, burnout, or a lack of motivation. But they may actually be signs of a nervous system that has learned survival through shutdown. In this episode of Trauma Rewired, Jennifer Wallace and Elisabeth Kristof explore the freeze response in depth, separating several nervous system states that are often mistakenly grouped together: acute freeze, tonic immobility, flop, and functional freeze. You'll learn why freeze is not simply "doing nothing," but an intelligent neurobiological response that helps the brain assess danger before choosing its next survival strategy. You'll also discover why tonic immobility—a last-resort survival response frequently experienced during sexual assault, childhood abuse, and combat—is fundamentally different from the brief freeze response that occurs during everyday stress. Jennifer and Elisabeth unpack how chronic trauma can condition the nervous system to rely on freeze and shutdown long after danger has passed, creating patterns of emotional numbness, dissociation, indecision, perfectionism, people-pleasing, and difficulty accessing authentic connection. The conversation also explores how functional freeze differs from burnout, why emotional numbness is often a loss of access rather than a loss of emotion, and how disruptions in interoception make emotional processing feel nearly impossible. Rather than encouraging people to push through or "snap out of it," they explain why nervous system healing begins with safety, precision, and what Neurosomatic Intelligence calls the Minimum Effective Dose. Whether you're navigating your own healing journey or supporting clients as a therapist, coach, or practitioner, this episode provides a compassionate neuroscience framework for understanding why shutdown happens—and how the nervous system can gradually learn that it is safe to move, feel, and reconnect again. In This Episode We Discuss: • The difference between freeze, tonic immobility, flop, and functional freeze • Why freeze is a temporary survival pause—not the end of the stress response • How tonic immobility differs from everyday freeze and why it often follows inescapable threat • Why survivors often experience shame after tonic immobility • How chronic trauma patterns freeze into daily life • Functional freeze versus burnout: understanding the differences • How freeze affects relationships, communication, and vulnerability • Why emotional numbness is often a protective nervous system response • The role of interoception in emotional awareness and processing • How trauma changes the way the brain interprets internal body sensations • Why you cannot think your way out of freeze • The neuroscience behind emotional blunting and dissociation • Why high performers can live in functional freeze without realizing it • How freeze impacts motivation, purpose, and emotional connection • The difference between numbness and apathy • Gentle, nervous system-informed approaches to thawing out of freeze • Why healing begins with safety, movement, and minimum effective dose—not forcing emotional breakthroughs If this episode resonated with you, share it with someone who may finally find language for an experience they've never been able to explain.

In the second episode of the "Lovemaxxing" series, Dr. K sits down with Brian, a professional actor and competitive medieval combat knight. Despite performing in front of crowds and literally fighting in titanium armor, Brian completely freezes up when it comes to breaking the ice with women. Dr. K breaks down the neuroscience of the "freeze" response, the psychological trap of playing a character to avoid rejection, and how to rewrite the brain's autonomic reactions. What to expect in this episode: The Freeze Response: Understanding why the autonomic nervous system is wired to "play dead" during social approaches and how this sudden lock-up is triggered by an adrenaline spike rather than just psychological anxiety. Autonomic Retraining: Why Dr. K recommends practices like Yoga or Tai Chi to literally rewire the nervous system and prevent the "freeze" response from hijacking the brain. Hyper-Vigilance and Mind Reading: A look at how the same skills that make someone a great actor can create a "negativity bias" in dating, causing them to constantly scan for bad micro-expressions and assume the worst about what others are thinking. Wanting vs. Liking: A deep dive into the neuroscience of dating apps, explaining why the dopamine circuit (what people want or demand on a profile) is entirely different from the hedonic circuit (what people actually like and enjoy in person). The Character Trap: The danger of using a cheerful "acting" persona as a defense mechanism to get people to like you, and why being terrified of revealing your true, flawed self prevents genuine emotional connection. Breaking the Autopilot: Practical advice on how to dissolve automatic anxiety spirals simply by "catching" yourself mind-reading in real-time, because neurological autopilot cannot function when you bring active awareness to it. The Fear of the Unknown: Exploring how the fear of not knowing what someone might judge you for is often more paralyzing than facing a specific, known criticism.

Romance scams, deepfakes, Medicare fraud: Professor David Maimon explains how organized the crooks have gotten, and how to stop being low-hanging fruit.Full show notes and resources can be found here: jordanharbinger.com/1346What We Discuss with Dr. David Maimon:Why fraud stopped being a guy in a hoodie. It's a full industry with a supply chain, where identity thieves, forgers, account openers, and launderers each run a specialty. David explains how consumers reported $12.5 billion in losses last year, and that's just the part people admitted to.How the dark web turned crime into a self-serve buffet. Stolen identities run $7 to $10, a license, ID, and passport bundle goes for $150, and compromised bank accounts ship with money-back guarantees. Getting there is as easy as pasting a URL from Google into the Tor browser.What AI quietly changed about the whole game. Fake faces, cloned voices, deepfake documents, and synthetic identities built from scratch have collapsed the cost of looking legit. David warns that agentic AI can now open accounts and build a paper trail around a person who never existed.Why you're not getting hacked so much as played. The con shifted from cracking passwords to working people. Romance scammers hunt for high credit scores and home equity, coaxing victims into opening accounts and draining their own loans, while kids get blackmailed into laundering stolen checks.How slowing down quietly beats the scammers. David's best defense costs nothing. Pause before clicking, verify through a separate channel, and treat urgency as the red flag it is.

The Dad Edge Podcast (formerly The Good Dad Project Podcast)
Jenna Free is a counselor specializing in ADHD regulation who discovered her own diagnosis while drowning in grad school with two babies 17 months apart. She has since developed a full certification program teaching other mental health professionals her ADHD regulation method, and she runs ADHD regulation groups for clients from her home base in Calgary, Alberta. In this episode, Jenna joined The Dad Edge Alliance for a live Q&A that goes far deeper than a typical ADHD conversation. The focus isn't the diagnosis itself — it's the nervous system, specifically how chronic fight-or-flight mode silently drives the impatience, compulsive behavior, crashes, and parenting struggles so many dads in this community experience. If you've ever wondered why you can't just logic your way into being calmer, this one's for you. Most of us assume ADHD is about the brain you were born with. Jenna reframes it completely — the real problem isn't the diagnosis, it's the dysregulated nervous system underneath it, and that part is something you can actually change. This conversation pulls back the curtain on the frantic-crash cycle, the fight-flight-freeze-fawn response, why pressure feels like performance, and what it looks like to function from a regulated baseline instead of white-knuckling through the day. This is especially powerful for any dad who has ever snapped at his kids in the morning, struggled to slow down, or quietly wondered whether go, go, go is actually working against him. Timeline Summary [1:02] Jenna's background: how her own ADHD diagnosis in grad school — with a six-month-old and an 18-month-old at home — led her to develop the ADHD regulation method [3:24] Why calendars and timers weren't enough: the frantic-crash cycle Jenna kept seeing in herself and every client she worked with [4:13] The nervous system root cause: why almost every neurodivergent person (and most parents) is running in a chronic state of fight-or-flight [6:36] Can you think your way out of it? Jenna explains why logic alone can't calm a dysregulated nervous system [9:16] Alliance member Jason's question: where to start with regulation for yourself and how to notice when your son is sliding into dysregulation [10:06] The first practical step — learning to physically feel dysregulation in your body: tight shoulders, rushing, impatience, holding your breath [11:49] The rushing reframe every parent needs: shifting from "let's go, let's go" to "let's focus" and why that small shift changes the whole morning [17:55] Breaking down all four modes: fight, flight, freeze, and fawn — including why people-pleasing is a survival response, not a personality trait [25:26] Alliance member Chris's question: the "pressure to perform" cycle and why functioning in high-intensity fight-or-flight leads to hard crashes and compulsive avoidance [30:21] Why a formal diagnosis may not matter: Jenna's framework focuses on nervous system regulation regardless of whether you have a label [40:19] Dysregulation is contagious — but so is regulation: how Jenna's own internal work changed her husband without a single conversation about it [42:16] Joanne's question: how to help a high-achieving son who struggles at school, and why the most powerful thing parents can do happens before they drop the kids off [47:21] Jenna's upcoming book, Full Capacity, and why she believes regulation is the most ambitious thing a driven person can pursue [54:12] The dreamer-freeze type: why a low-motivation, avoidant kid is just as dysregulated as a hyperactive one — it just looks different [57:10] The host shares his own ADHD management tools — exercise and clean eating — and Jenna explains exactly why they work from a nervous system standpoint Five Key Takeaways You can't think your way out of fight-or-flight because it's not a thought problem — it's a nervous system problem. The primal part of your brain believes you're being chased by a bear, and no amount of self-talk will convince it otherwise until you address the physical and behavioral patterns keeping it on alert. The frantic-crash cycle isn't a productivity style — it's a symptom. When you require pressure to get things done and then collapse afterward, you're not built that way; you've been trained into it. The only way out is to consciously lower the intensity during the good stretches, not just manage the crashes. Rushing is one of the clearest signals your nervous system has flipped into survival mode. When you catch yourself rushing the kids in the morning, the fix isn't to push through faster — it's to physically slow down and shift from "let's go" to "let's focus," which calms everyone's system and actually gets you out the door more effectively. Your regulation — or lack of it — is setting the baseline for your whole family. Kids and partners co-regulate with the people around them. You can't force your kids to be calm, but becoming a regulated, grounded presence does more than any conversation about breathing ever will. Fight-or-flight doesn't always look like intensity. Freeze and avoidance are just as much a dysregulated state as frantic rushing — they're just the other end of the pendulum. A kid who looks unmotivated or a dad who procrastinates for two weeks is dealing with the same nervous system problem as the guy who can't slow down.

But there's something powerful in knowing that the part of you that snaps at your kids, crashes after a big push, or can't quite slow down no matter how much you want to — that part isn't a character flaw. It's a nervous system that's been running in survival mode, and it can be retrained. If this conversation hit close to home, share it with a dad you know who's quietly fighting the same battle.

H.W. Brands describes how, during the summer of 1940, as London burned under the Luftwaffe's terror weapons, Roosevelt made the historic decision to seek a third term. He used "Rooseveltian misdirection" to freeze out potential Democratic successors like James Farley and John Nance Garner, eventually engineering a "draft" of himself based on the international emergency. Lindbergh and other skeptics saw this as a move toward a presidency for life, with Lindbergh accurately predicting Roosevelt would run for a fourth term and die in office. To formalize the opposition, the America First Committee was formed under General Robert Wood of Sears Roebuck, with Lindbergh serving as its star speaker. Lindbergh enjoyed massive media support and funding, delivering rallies that drew thousands while Roosevelt campaigned on promises that "your son will not die in a foreign war." The debate became increasingly personal, with Senator Burton Wheeler suggesting that every fourth American son would be "plowed into the ground" if the country intervened. Roosevelt, a master of press conferences, used his "slippery" instincts to treat reporters as adjuncts to his administration, planting ideas to see how they would be received by the public. Despite Lindbergh's constant radio messages that the U.S. was secure behind two oceans and possessed a superior military, Roosevelt began planning the Lend-Lease program as 1941 approached. (4)
