It's fall, it's October and the US Supreme Court is back in session. On today's episode, we have a special guest from the AFJ Justice team. We are joined by our colleague Jamal Lockings. With Jamall we will cover the big cases to be heard by the court. Then we will talk about how nonprofits can get involved with supreme court advocacy, nominees, and more while staying nonpartisan and being mindful of lobbying limits.    Attorneys for this Episode  Brittany Hacker  Susan Finkle Sourlis  Jamaal Lockings     Intro to Justice Program  Our justice team works on both federal and state judicial appointments and elections and runs numerous invaluable resources including our judicial vacancy tracker and helps keep us and the public informed about nominees. This includes the decisions they make after they've been confirmed, and how cases in federal courts – especially the supreme court – are impacting our civil rights and democracy.     Today, we are thrilled to be joined on the pod by our friend and colleague Jamaal Lockings. Jamaal is a fellow attorney who serves as a Dorot Fellow on the Federal Courts team.   Today we want to talk about the upcoming cases in this supreme court term, what we should be keeping an eye on, the potential impacts for our c3 partners, and what nonprofits can do during this term and future terms to advocate.     Cases to watch out for this term  Voting Rights and Money In Politics  Louisiana v. Callais  Issue: Whether a states efforts to comply with the VRA is, in itself, a form of racial discrimination   (1) Rehearing from last term (2) The Court is playing politics (3) the VRA is on the chopping block   Consequences: A final blow to the VRA, and increased difficulty for minority voters to participate in free and fair elections   National Republican Senatorial Committee v. FEC  Issue: Whether to maintain the federal limits on political party coordination w/ candidates in campaign advertising.   (1) Could render campaign contribution limits meaningless, increasing the already outsized influence of money in politics (2) These cases on elections and voting rights can't be observed in a vacuum     LGBTQ+   Chiles v. Salazar   Issue: Whether Colorado's ban on “conversion therapy” for minors violates First Amendment protections of free speech and religious exercise   (1) Religious litigants have been notoriously successful in this court (2) free speech and religious exercise have been used not to ensure equity or equality but to prop up Christian nationalist ideology.   West Virginia v. B.P.J.   Issue: Title IX and barring Trans athletes   (1) This court continues to wade into culture wars (2) It's ruling in Skrmetti and Justice Barrett's assertion that Trans isn't a protected states (3) Embolden lawmakers to continue to write oppressive laws against trans individuals    Executive Power & Civil Liberties   Trump v. Slaughter   Issue: whether statutory removal protections for members of the FTC – and agencies like it – “violate” the separation of powers.    (1) The Court's emergency orders this summer (2) growing belief in the unitary executive theory (3) Likely to overrule Humphrey's executor  Consequences: Collapse of independent agencies and with it, governing stability.     What c3s can do:  Supreme court advocacy is nonpartisan—you are free to stand for or against cases before any court or get involved in the cases.   Litigation at the supreme court: c3s are often the best voice and represent groups who otherwise would not be heard or could not bring such large scale cases  Amicus briefs   Educating the public about cases and impacts of opinions  As you know c3 public charities may engage in lobbying and there are ways through lobbying that can affect the courts at the federal or maybe the state level  Nominee advocacy—Advocate for or against nominees to supreme court (lobbying)  Remember the lower district courts and circuit courts as well  Remember the lobbying rules if you are a c3: must track and report your lobbying the IRS and stay within your lobbying limits. Great place for c4s to get involved because they can lobbying in an unlimited amount.  Ethics advocacy—ask congress for more oversight or ethics rules (Lobbying if it will require a legislative vote).   Resources  Alliance for Justice, Being a Player  Alliance for Justice, Confirmation of Supreme Court Justices  Alliance for Justice, Judicial Nominee Tracker  Alliance for Justice, Supreme Court Reform 

Dr. Hoffman continues his conversation with Dr. Rob Verkerk, Founder, Executive & Scientific Director, Alliance for Natural Health International & Alliance for Natural Health USA.

Dr. Robert Verkerk, the Executive Director of the Alliance for Natural Health (ANH), discusses a wide range of topics, including the intersection of high-tech medical advances and natural therapies. Dr. Verkerk explains the mission of ANH, emphasizing the defense of health freedom and the promotion of natural approaches to health. They delve into various initiatives that ANH is working on, such as defending access to natural thyroid, reversing bans on important supplements like NMN and NAC, and challenging FDA regulations that restrict information on the benefits of natural products. The episode also highlights the importance of maintaining a balanced approach to healthcare and the ongoing efforts to reform regulatory frameworks that favor pharmaceutical interventions over natural alternatives.

Shoot us a Text.Episode #1170: California's new CARS Act sets tough transparency rules for dealers, a new report exposes EV charging's reliability gap, and Elon Musk's xAI looks to raise $20 billion—with Nvidia both selling the chips and buying in.Show Notes with links:Governor Gavin Newsom has signed the California Combating Auto Retail Scams (CARS) Act, a landmark law that establishes new consumer protection standards and stricter sales transparency across the state beginning in 2026.The California CARS Act closely mirrors roughly 70% of the FTC's now-vacated federal CARS Rule and prohibits dealers from misrepresenting key facts about vehicle sales, leases, or financing.The law requires clear and conspicuous disclosure of total vehicle price and the voluntary nature of add-ons.The CARS Act bans “valueless” add-ons, such as unnecessary service contracts or redundant protection products.Buyers of used vehicles under $50,000 now have a three-day right to cancel with mileage and condition limits.A new EV Charging Reliability Report from ChargerHelp! reveals a critical gap between charger availability and usability, showing that nearly one in three charging attempts fails despite reported uptime near 99%.The study analyzed 100,000 sessions across 2,400 chargers, finding only a 71% first-time charge success rate (FTCSR).ChargerHelp! CEO Kameale Terry argues FTCSR is the true measure of reliability—not uptime—because “it captures the real driver experience.”The biggest culprit is software fragmentation, with EVs, chargers, and payment systems often failing to communicate properly.Reliability declines with aging infrastructure, as older stations drop from 85% to 70% success after three years due to outdated protocols.Terry remains hopeful: “It's a solvable problem... even gas cars had their growing pains before becoming mainstream.”Elon Musk's xAI is reportedly seeking a $20 billion fundraising deal that could include Nvidia both as a chip supplier and as a key investor—an arrangement highlighting the increasingly intertwined nature of the AI hardware race.The proposed structure reportedly combines equity and debt within a special-purpose vehicle that would buy Nvidia chips and lease them back to xAI.Nvidia could contribute up to $2 billion in equity while also profiting from the chip sales.Analysts note the “circular” nature of these AI financing deals, where investors also serve as vendors.Nvidia has made similar moves recently, including a $100 billion commitment to OpenAI and a $5 billion stake in Intel.Join Paul J Daly and Kyle Mountsier every morning for the Automotive State of the Union podcast as they connect the dots across car dealerships, retail trends, emerging tech like AI, and cultural shifts—bringing clarity, speed, and people-first insight to automotive leaders navigating a rapidly changing industry.Get the Daily Push Back email at https://www.asotu.com/ JOIN the conversation on LinkedIn at: https://www.linkedin.com/company/asotu/

From January 19, 2024: Last week, the Federal Trade Commission (FTC) reached a settlement with location data broker X-Mode Social. X-Mode collects over 10 billion location data points from all over the world every day, and sells it to clients in a range of industries, like advertisers, consulting firms, and private government contractors. The FTC argued that the data broker was conducting unfair business practices, including selling people's sensitive location data.To discuss the FTC settlement and its implications, Lawfare's Fellow in Technology Policy and Law Eugenia Lostri sat down with Justin Sherman, Founder and CEO of Global Cyber Strategies and a Senior Fellow at Duke University's Sanford School of Public Policy. They talked about the FTC's groundbreaking decision to list sensitive locations about which X-Mode cannot sell data, the likelihood that we will see further FTC action against data brokers, and the persistent need for comprehensive privacy legislation to better address harms.To receive ad-free podcasts, become a Lawfare Material Supporter at www.patreon.com/lawfare.

Washington's MAGA government is shoveling massive giveaways of public money to corporate elites. Worse, though, are its takeaways of people's power to battle the abuse of those same plutocratic corporations. Consider just three recent examples:Travel. Perhaps your family plans a holiday flight to visit grandma. Flying itself has become dicey, but at least the government is requiring airlines that cause long delays or cancellations to compensate us passengers for our loss. Uh… no, no more. Trump's transportation secretary (who was previously a LOBBYIST for the big airlines!) is “loosening” the rules so monopolistic airlines owe nothing to abused customers.Job opportunities. One of the nastiest wage suppression tactics of corporate bosses has been their collusion to make employees sign “noncompete” contracts. These amount to indentured servitude, preventing workers from quitting to take a better job with a competing firm. This corporate lockdown costs American workers some $40 billion a year in wages they could get in an open job market. The FTC was finally moving to ban these noncompete gimmicks – but Trump installed a corporate lackey at the FTC to snuff out this spark of workplace liberty.Pollution. Corporate lobbyists and MAGA lawmakers are rigging the rules to let industrial giants escape responsibility for their massive environmental contamination. For example, the profiteering greedheads who've deceptively caused tons of deadly “forever chemicals” to be spread on our land, water, communities, and families are to be let off the hook by the new, corporate-hugging EPA honcho. He says we taxpayers must pay for the toxic cleanup, not the polluters.If you're unclear about the meaning of “plutocracy,' there it is: Government by and for the despotic rich.Fighting plutocracy on multiple fronts is challenging work, and that's why we recommend getting involved with Public Citizen—they're strategic and have a long track record of protecting Americans on many issues.

We are pleased to share a new podcast episode, which was taken from our September 9, 2025, webinar featuring Malini Mithal, Associate Director of the Federal Trade Commission's Division of Financial Practices. Malini has been a valued guest on our podcast in past years, and this session provided another timely and insightful discussion. In today's episode she gives her thoughts on the FTC's recent non-antitrust consumer protection initiatives. Major Key Topics Discussed 1.     Fintech oversight – Malini began with FTC activity involving fintechs, particularly companies promoting faster access to cash, and addressed related lending and payments cases. 2.     Subscription practices under ROSCA – She highlighted the FTC's enforcement of the Restore Online Confidence Shoppers Act, including lawsuits against Uber and LA Fitness and a settlement with Match. 3.     Unfair and Deceptive Fees Rule – Effective May 12, 2025, this rule bans bait-and-switch pricing and hidden fees in industries such as live-event ticketing and short-term lodging. Malini explained how these practices harm consumers and distort competition. 4.     Auto finance transparency – Another area of focus for the FTC, reflecting the agency's broader emphasis on price transparency. 5.     Debt collection, debt relief, and credit repair – Malini reviewed recent FTC enforcement activity in these high-risk sectors. 6.     Crypto platforms – She concluded with a discussion of the FTC's work addressing crypto platforms that market banking-like services to consumers. After Malini left the webinar, John Culhane, a partner in our Consumer Financial Services Group, provided an update on developments at the FTC in terms of budget and staffing and the ongoing litigation challenging the Trump Administration's removal of two Democratic FTC Commissioners without cause and then discussed areas where we expect to see more FTC “regulation by enforcement” activity. Consumer Finance Monitor is hosted by Alan Kaplinsky, Senior Counsel at Ballard Spahr, and the founder and former chair of the firm's Consumer Financial Services Group. We encourage listeners to subscribe to the podcast on their preferred platform for weekly insights into developments in the consumer finance industry.

Are you struggling with knee pain or want to prevent it? Today, I sit down with Laurie Kertz Kelly, a physical therapist and co-founder of the Better Knees Method, to explore a proven three-pillar approach to improving knee health without the need for medication, injections, or surgery.  She explains why X-rays don't tell the whole story, the importance of addressing joint fluid and cartilage health, and how small, targeted exercises can make a huge difference. You'll learn practical steps to lubricate your knees, strengthen cartilage, and gradually build load tolerance so you can get back to activities you love.  Plus, Laurie shares two simple exercises you can do at home to start improving knee mobility and reducing pain immediately.   "If you're having some knee pain, it's not a permanent situation. If it's arthritis, it's related to inflammation–you get rid of the inflammation, you get rid of the pain and the problems." ~ Laurie Kertz Kelly, MPT   In this episode: - [00:00] - Introduction to Laurie Kertz Kelly and the Better Knees Method - [03:36] - Why X-rays don't predict knee pain - [08:49] - Importance of joint fluid and cartilage in knee health - [13:46] - Three-pillar approach: soothing, strengthening, and mobility - [19:49] - Easy exercises: squats and chair-based movements - [21:54] - Success stories of knee pain recovery - [27:05] - Two key exercises to relieve knee pain - [31:56] - Knee replacement option - [36:04] - Using injections effectively with physical therapy - [41:33] - Step-by-step guide to quad sets and sitting sliders   Resources mentioned Healthier Knees to Support Your Bones - November 6th at 12:00 pm EST. https://www.happyboneshappylife.com/build-stronger-healthier-knees-to-support-your-bones  (Laurie will be teaching this class live with the Happy Bones, Happy Life community.

In President Trump's second term, federal agencies are navigating uncharted territory. Two Supreme Court cases from June 2024 fundamentally changed how agencies can operate: Loper Bright ended Chevron deference—meaning courts no longer automatically defer to agencies' interpretations of ambiguous laws—and Jarkesy limited agencies' ability to impose civil penalties without jury trials.At the same time, President Trump is consolidating control over agencies that were traditionally seen as independent from the executive branch. He's fired commissioners from the FTC, NLRB, and other agencies as part of his push for a "unitary executive." Former FTC Commissioner Rebecca Slaughter is fighting her dismissal, and the Supreme Court recently allowed the firing to stand while it reviews the case.The fundamental tension? Courts are stripping power from agencies just as Trump is trying to bring those agencies under tighter presidential control. Will Loper Bright and Jarkesy make these agencies less useful tools for implementing Trump's agenda, even if he wins the fight to end their independence? And how will these cases impact the FCC's authority looks to reform its broadband subsidy programs while fighting illegal robocalls?Evan is joined by Tom Johnson, former general counsel of the FCC under Chairman Pai and now a partner at Wiley Rein. He is the author of a new paper for Digital Progress Institute on ways to reform the Universal Service Fund.

Hours into the first government shutdown in over six years, Punchbowl News co-founder Jake Sherman reports on the path forward for both sides of the aisle. The Bureau of Labor Statistics will not release its monthly employment report amid the shutdown, sending economists and investors elsewhere for labor market data. CNBC's Steve Liesman shares September's ADP National Employment Report, and ADP's chief economist Nela Richardson explains how her metrics–along with other datasets–help paint a picture of the labor market. Richardson's takeaway: no matter the metric, hiring momentum has slowed. Plus, Berkshire Hathaway is reportedly exploring a purchase of Occidental Petroleum's petrochemical business, FTC is suing Redfin and Zillow over antitrust concerns, and Walmart is eliminating artificial dyes in its store brand food products.  Jake Sherman - 03:41SteveLiesman - 14:10Nela Richardson - 22:03 In this episode:Nela Richardson, @NelaRichardsonJake Sherman, @JakeShermanSteve Liesman, @steveliesmanJoe Kernen, @JoeSquawk Becky Quick, @BeckyQuickAndrew Ross Sorkin, @andrewrsorkinKatie Kramer, @Kramer_Katie Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

Crash or Crack? Zillow's Legal Storm, CoStar Feud & Housing Market Mayhem FTC slaps Zillow & Redfin with an antitrust lawsuit The FTC accuses Zillow of paying Redfin $100 million to exit the rental advertising space, shutting down competition for nearly a decade. Redfin allegedly gave up ad partnerships, helped Zillow poach employees, and agreed to syndicate only Zillow's listings. What's at stake: advertising pricing power, renters' choice, and whether Big Tech in real estate just got too big. CoStar strikes back: Zillow accused of rampant photo theft CoStar claims Zillow unlawfully used more than 46,000 of its copyrighted photos — even with watermarks — across Zillow, Redfin, and Realtor.com syndication networks. Zillow has already started removing images at the center of the case. This could become one of the largest copyright battles the real estate industry has ever seen. Real estate data digest — warning signs everywhere • Pending home sales posted their first meaningful monthly decline in months, despite mortgage rates easing slightly. • Luxury home prices jumped 4% to a median of $1.25M, even as overall sales hit the lowest August level in more than a decade. • Starter-home sales are up, as buyers look for affordability in a shifting market.  • The share of mortgages with rates above 6% is at a 10-year high. • Refinance demand plunged 21% as rates hit a 3-week high.  • Even homeowners with sub-4% mortgages are on the move, often turning to new builds to lock in incentives. What this means for agents, buyers & markets going forward We break down the legal risks, competitive threats, and strategic pivots needed to survive in a volatile real estate tech era — plus some bold predictions for what comes next.

This week, we examine the Federal Trade Commission's (FTC's) decisions to drop its appeal of a federal court ruling striking down its proposed non-compete ban and to issue warnings to health care employers about using unreasonable restrictive covenants in employment agreements. FTC Backs Off Non-Compete Ban, Warns Health Care Employers  Although the FTC's decision to abandon its non-compete ban appeal may appear to favor employers, its recent warning letters to health care organizations make clear that regulatory scrutiny is far from over. Key Takeaways for Employers: Regulatory Spotlight on Health Care: The FTC has urged health care employers to review restrictive covenants for fairness and compliance. Patient Choice Concerns: Health care non-competes may limit patient access to providers, particularly in rural areas. Protection of Business Interests: Non-competes should be narrowly tailored to safeguard trade secrets, customer relationships, and other legitimate interests. In this episode, Epstein Becker Green attorneys E. John Steren and David J. Clark discuss the FTC's concerns for health care employers, offer guidance on revising non-compete agreements to withstand legal challenges, and explore alternative strategies to protect business interests. - Visit our site for this week's Other Highlights and links: https://www.ebglaw.com/eltw406 Download our Wage & Hour Guide for Employers app: https://www.ebglaw.com/wage-hour-guide-for-employers-app. Subscribe to #WorkforceWednesday: https://www.ebglaw.com/eltw-subscribe Visit http://www.EmploymentLawThisWeek.com This podcast is presented by Epstein Becker & Green, P.C.

Breaking News: The Federal Trade Commission has sued Zillow and Redfin over a $100 million rental advertising deal. The FTC alleges the agreement illegally removed Redfin as a competitor in online rental listings, potentially driving up costs for property managers and harming renters. In this episode of Real Estate News for Investors, Kathy Fettke explains what the lawsuit says, why regulators are taking action, and what this could mean for investors, multifamily property managers, and the future of online rental platforms.

Today's Headlines: Former FBI Director James Comey was indicted yesterday on charges of lying to Congress and obstructing a proceeding, stemming from his 2020 testimony about the Russia probe (it always goes back to Russia). Meanwhile, Trump's new enemy: an escalator at the UN that stopped moving under his feet, which he called “triple sabotage” and demanded arrests over. He also slapped tariffs of up to 50% on furniture and cabinets, claiming a national security threat from foreign vanities. In other news, Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth ordered nearly 1,000 generals to convene at Quantico in the largest gathering of top brass since Vietnam, though no one will say why. Disney investors are suing over Kimmel's suspension, alleging political motives, while Democrats are furious that the State Department accidentally leaked unredacted military records of Rep.

In tech news, TikTok is being sold to a billionaire bloc led by Oracle and Rupert Murdoch (what could go wrong?), Amazon agreed to pay $2.5 billion to settle an FTC case over Prime tricks, and the government is begging hundreds of employees fired in Elon's MAGA-GSA purge to come back. Microsoft, for its part, just cut off an Israeli military unit using its AI for Palestinian surveillance. And finally, Trump promised Israel won't annex the West Bank, U.S. jets intercepted Russian bombers near Alaska, and Argentina will be getting a $20B bailout after President Milei and his buddy Elon basically “DOGE'd” the economy into the ground.
