In this episode of WORK, Erika takes on the state of work and the future of women’s sports. She unpacks why today’s job market feels impossible—from AI-written applications colliding with AI-driven hiring systems to Gallup’s finding that fewer than one in five employees are satisfied at work. With quiet quitting evolving into quiet crashing, she asks what leaders can do when culture is defined by the worst behavior they’re willing to tolerate. Then the conversation shifts to a breakthrough moment for women’s lacrosse. Erika sits down with PLL VP Rachel DeCecco and players Sydney Black, Ally Mastroianni, Lizzie Colson, and Izzy Scane to talk about the league’s first full season in 2026, how they balance day jobs with professional play, and what it means to build a new era for women’s sports.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

James and Nate unpack a recent Gallup poll on Americans’ views of capitalism—down from 60% (2021) to 54% (2025)favorable—and why that headline can mislead. Beneath it: strong support for free enterprise and small business, persistent dislike of big business, and sharp differences across age, gender, and party. Rather than picking teams (“capitalism vs. socialism”), they ask the more Christian question: where are we placing our hope? Drawing on 1 Samuel, the exile, and Daniel, they argue systems are provisional, reform is often wise, but obedience to Christ is the constant—“fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom.” The church’s political and economic posture should flow downstream from discipleship, not the other way around.

Pierce County Sheriff Keith Swank is being investigated for his social media posts about gun ownership for transgender people. An accused drug dealer deported four times was arrested in Seattle. Why is this not making headlines? A Bureau of Labor Statistics revision shows that there were far fewer jobs added under the Biden Administration than previously thought. Prosecutors want a harsher sentence for Shawn Kemp. // LongForm: GUEST: Thurston County Commissioner Wayne Fournier is proposing a new law that would keep federal immigration enforcement out of emergency response zones. // Quick Hit: A new Gallup poll shows that capitalism has its lowest favorability ever amongst Americans.

It's Wednesday, September 10th, A.D. 2025. This is The Worldview in 5 Minutes heard on 140 radio stations and at www.TheWorldview.com.  I'm Adam McManus. (Adam@TheWorldview.com) By Jonathan Clark Australia outlaws certain prayers Christian Daily reports that the attorney general of New South Wales, Australia reaffirmed a ban on certain kinds of prayers last week.  The southeastern state of Australia enacted a ban on conversion practices earlier this year. The law prohibits “performing a ritual, such as an exorcism or prayer-based practice to change or suppress someone's sexual orientation or gender identity.” Lyle Shelton is the national director of the Family First Australia political party. He wrote online, “Some prayers are now illegal in New South Wales. If a mum, dad, pastor, or friend prays with someone who asks for help to follow God's Word, they could face sanction.” Shelton called for people to pray as the early church did in Acts 4:29. The verse says, “Now, Lord, look on their threats, and grant to Your servants that with all boldness they may speak Your word.” Israel carried out a strike on Hamas leaders in Qatar yesterday.  Israel carried out a strike on Hamas leaders in Qatar yesterday.  Hamas said the attack killed five members but did not kill the negotiating delegation. The delegation was meeting in Qatar's capital of Doha to consider a U.S. proposal for a ceasefire in Gaza. It appears to be the first time Israel carried out an attack in Qatar. However, it's not Israel's first strike outside its borders recently. Israel carried out strikes on Hamas leaders in Lebanon and Iran last year.  10,000 Brits march for life About 10,000 Brits participated in the March for Life United Kingdom on Saturday.  The event started with church and prayer services followed by the march and speeches from pro-life leaders. Carla Lockhart, Chair of the Pro-Life Parliamentary Group, addressed the crowd. SPEAKER: “Ladies and gentlemen, young people, boys and girls, what a privilege it is to stand before you today in the streets of London. “I traveled from Northern Ireland this morning to stand in solidarity with you, fellow campaigners, who speak up for life. “Friends, today's theme is human rights for all humans. Then surely this simple truth must be the foundation upon which we build. The most basic human right is the right to life.” Isabel Vaughan-Spruce, the co-director of March for Life, spoke at the event. She had previously faced arrest for praying silently outside an abortion mill.  Vaughan-Spruce reflected on the success of the march. She said, “Whilst the center of London seemed to have erupted in chaos on Saturday, with police desperately trying to control various protests and arresting hundreds of people, the pro-life crowd exemplified the peace and joy of those who are confident that that their cause is just, and their hope is rooted in something greater than politics.” Trump announces protection of prayer in public schools In the United States, President Donald Trump addressed the Religious Liberty Commission at the Museum of the Bible in Washington, D.C. on Monday. Trump announced that the Department of Education will soon issue new guidance protecting the right to prayer in public schools. Listen to comments from President Trump. TRUMP: “When faith gets weaker, our country seems to get weaker. When faith gets stronger, as it is right now, we're having a very good period of time, after some rough years. “Under the Trump administration, we're defending our rights and restoring our identity as a nation under God. We are one nation under God, and we always will be.” (applause) Psalm 33:12 says, “Blessed is the nation whose God is the LORD, the people He has chosen as His own inheritance.” Florida first state to end vaccine requirements Florida announced plans last week to become the first state to end vaccine requirements. Not just COVID vaccine requirements, but all vaccine requirements. Listen to comments from Florida Surgeon General Joseph Ladapo. LADAPO: “Your body is a gift from God. What you put into your body, (applause) what you put into your body, is because of your relationship with your body and your God. I don't have that right. Government does not have that right!” The plan includes ending all vaccine mandates for school-aged children.  Americans having fewer children And finally, Gallup released a new survey on Americans' ideal family size. On average, U.S. adults think 2.7 is the ideal number of children for a family to have. That's down from 3.6 in the 1950s. Meanwhile, the actual U.S. birth rate is at an all-time low of 1.6 births per woman. That's down from 3.7 in the 1950s. The replacement rate is generally defined as 2 children per woman.  The survey notes, “Men, U.S. adults who attend religious services weekly or monthly, Republicans, people of color, and men under age 50 are significantly more likely than their counterparts to prefer three or more children.” Psalm 127:3 says, “Behold, children are a heritage from the LORD, the fruit of the womb is a reward.” Close And that's The Worldview on this Wednesday, September 10th, in the year of our Lord 2025. Follow us on X or subscribe for free by Spotify, Amazon Music, or by iTunes or email to our unique Christian newscast at www.TheWorldview.com.  Plus, you can get the Generations app through Google Play or The App Store.

On Monday's Mark Levin Show, President Trump rightly criticized Sen Tim Kaine for saying that our rights come from government, not God. The book "Ameritopia" explained that John Locke had profound influence on America's founders during the Revolutionary period. Locke's philosophy was, natural law, derived from God's will, governs all, including governments; no authority can violate inalienable rights; and governments exist by consent to preserve these rights, not create them. This connects to the Declaration of Independence's principles. Kaine's view is stunning and representative of the Democrat position. Also, the Democrat Party has radicalized far beyond its base, leaving behind traditional Democrats like veterans, police, firefighters, and generational members who now form a minority. A recent Gallup poll, show that only 42% of Democrats view capitalism positively, while 66% favor socialism. This reflects the entire party, not just the base, as evidenced by elections of socialists in cities like New York and support for figures like AOC and Bernie Sanders. This Democratic radicalization is partly due to new immigrants from anti-capitalist societies. Later, Dr Zuhdi Jasser calls in to discuss his run for Arizona's 4th Congressional district. Jasser emphasized his commitment to service, love for America, and fighting against radical Islam, and far-left policies exploiting freedoms. Jasser would be a counter to progressive kooks like Rashida Tlaib and Ilhan Omar. Afterward, sanctuary states and cities are unconstitutional. America fought a civil war making that clear. States and cities cannot defy federal constitutional authority that is clearly granted to the national government -- the enforcement of federal immigration law. They cannot nullify federal law.

In this episode of The Wright Report, we cover the shocking stabbing death of a Ukrainian refugee in North Carolina, fresh polling on America's youth drifting toward socialism, and global headlines from South Korea, Argentina, France, and China. From crime and ideology at home to economic and political turmoil abroad, today's brief shows how policies and power struggles are reshaping America and the world.   North Carolina Stabbing Case and Media Silence: Ukrainian refugee Iryna Zarutska was murdered by Decarlos Brown, a repeat offender with schizophrenia and over 14 arrests. Released by Judge Teresa Stokes under restorative justice policies, Brown stabbed her on a Charlotte light rail after muttering, “I got the white girl.” Bryan argues, “This case isn't just about one victim and one perp. It's about a nation that is broken.”   America's Youth Drift Left — Socialism Rising: NBC, Rasmussen, and Gallup reveal stark generational divides. Democrat youth rank money and emotional stability above marriage, children, or faith, while Trump-voting men list kids as their top priority. Polling shows 53 percent of Americans under 40 favor a socialist president in 2028. Bryan warns, “We are living in the midst of a Leftist Revolution.”   South Korea Furious Over Georgia ICE Raid: Seoul condemns ICE for arresting 475 illegal Korean workers at Hyundai's battery plant. Trump responded, “[We] don't have people in this country who know about batteries… Maybe we should help them along and let some [Korean] people come in and train our people.” Critics warn expanded H1-B visas could enrage Trump's working-class base.   Argentina's Marxists Make a Comeback: Markets tank after the Peronist Party's unexpected win in Buenos Aires. President Javier Milei admitted the result was “much worse than expected” but vowed to continue his reforms, calling for “deep self-criticism.”   France's Government Collapses Again: Prime Minister François Bayrou lost a no-confidence vote, the third government collapse in a year. With debt at 114 percent of GDP, President Macron faces the choice of a new prime minister, snap elections, or stepping down.   LeBron James Pens Op-Ed for China: The NBA star praised China as “passionate and friendly” in a CCP newspaper essay, aiming to restore NBA access to the Chinese market after years of bans. Bryan calls it a clear case of “red Communist money turning bright American green.”   "And you shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free." - John 8:32     Keywords: Iryna Zarutska North Carolina stabbing, Decarlos Brown schizophrenia restorative justice, Judge Teresa Stokes Second Chances, NBC youth priorities socialism, Rasmussen Gallup socialism poll, Trump voters family priorities, South Korea ICE raid Hyundai plant, Trump H1-B visas batteries, Argentina Peronist Party comeback Milei, France government collapse Bayrou Macron, LeBron James China op-ed NBA

American enthusiasm for capitalism is slipping, especially among Democrats. That's the headline from a new Gallup poll out this week. In this latest survey, just 54% of respondents said they view capitalism positively. That's down from 60% the last time Gallup asked in 2021. We'll hear more. Plus, we'll get fresh reads on consumer and producer prices this week. How much might these affect a rate cut by the Fed?

In this packed, long-form episode, we cover everything from financial empowerment to societal trends and shocking current events: South Carolina's Future Scholar program: Curtis Loftus, State Treasurer, joins the show to discuss how this tax-advantaged 529 plan is helping families save for college, pay down student loans, and even roll over leftover funds into a Roth IRA. Personal testimonials show how consistent investing—even small amounts—can make a massive impact on reducing student debt. RFK Jr. and vaccine oversight: An in-depth look at the FDA investigation of child deaths linked to COVID vaccines reported in VAERS, the gold-standard vaccine monitoring system. The episode explains why RFK Jr. and Dr. Marty Makary's efforts have some politicians in a panic, and what it could mean for vaccine safety and transparency. Gallup poll on birth rates and happiness: New data reveals that conservatives are maintaining above-replacement birth rates, while liberal households are having fewer children. We explore the mental health divide, societal priorities, and why married women with children report being the happiest group in America. Advice on prioritizing family over a perfectly planned career is also shared. Crime and public safety: A discussion on the release of dangerous criminals in Charlotte, NC, and how these policies fit into a broader leftist strategy, with examples including repeat offenders and high-risk individuals being released with minimal oversight. This episode ties together financial literacy, public health, family planning, and societal trends—offering a lens on how personal choices, political ideology, and government policy intersect in modern America.

In this eye-opening episode, we dive into stunning new data from Gallup and the U.S. General Social Survey that reveals a surprising truth about America's birth rate crisis. Contrary to popular belief, it's not conservatives who are having fewer children—they are maintaining above-replacement fertility rates. The decline in births is almost entirely driven by liberal men and women having fewer or no kids. We break down what the polls say about happiness, priorities, and life satisfaction: Married women with children report being 2.5 times happier than women who aren't married or childless. Conservative men (particularly Trump voters) rank having children as their #1 priority and marriage as #4, while liberal men and women rank them far lower. Liberal women often prioritize career and financial independence over family, which aligns with the falling birth rate among left-leaning households. The episode also explores the cultural and psychological divide between conservatives and liberals when it comes to family creation, relationships, and personal fulfillment. We discuss why the data suggests that America's future demographic landscape could be shaped by these stark differences in values and priorities. Listeners will learn: How political affiliation correlates with family planning and happiness. Why conservative households continue to thrive in family creation. The surprising links between mental health, political ideology, and life satisfaction. Insights on how cultural messages about career and timing can impact long-term happiness. This episode is a must-listen for anyone interested in family trends, cultural shifts, and what really drives happiness in America.

You can't "just be yourself" if you don't know what that means anymore.

A Gallup poll shows just 54% of Americans now view capitalism favorably, down from 60% in 2021. Socialism remains less popular overall, but views among Democrats and independents have held steady. Meanwhile, favorable opinions of big business continue to fall, dropping to 37%.

Get your copy of Golgotha's Groaning - https://www.skywatchtvstore.com/products/december-donation-2023-copy?variant=42276218601585“What Carl Gallups has uncovered and placed right before our eyes in Golgotha's Groaning is nothing short of stunning! You'll never expect what's coming!”—Messianic Rabbi Zev Porat (Tel Aviv, Israel)Golgotha, the Place of the Skull, depicts one of the most iconic images known to humanity: three crosses on a hill. Spiked to the middle cross was Yeshua/Jesus, the divine offer of Heaven's salvation.After years of meticulously poring over the Hebrew and Greek Scriptures, Author Carl Gallups is leading readers on a unique pilgrimage to Golgotha, tracking a supernatural and almost DNA-like encoding of that quintessential image throughout the Bible. Astonishingly, likenesses of Golgotha are visible from the beginning words of Genesis to some of the last words of Revelation—and in just the right places.Written, in part, in Gallups' trademark, immersive-narrative style, Golgotha's Groaning is unlike any of his other works as far as the degree of its explosive content and exciting disclosures. Connected to key biblical passages are more than eighty illustrations, allowing readers to see for themselves these newly revealed truths.“Even the mystery which hath been hid from ages and from generations but now is made manifest to his saints.” —Colossians 1:26, kjv

The show spotlights Zohran Mamdani's lead in New York's mayoral polls, fueled by strong youth support for socialist policies like fare-free transit, public child care, city-run groceries, rent controls, police defunding, and a $30 minimum wage. Kevin Freeman contrasts generational attitudes toward socialism and communism with Cold War history, citing data from Cato, Pew, and Gallup to argue that education and cultural shifts are driving the trend. He criticizes proposals such as city-owned grocery stores as historically disastrous and highlights endorsements and controversies surrounding Mamdani's background and positions on Israel. The segment concludes with a call for “economic justice” via free-market solutions, sound money, and policy reforms to restore middle-class opportunity without embracing socialism.

In this episode of God Talk the host examines a recent Gallup poll showing 9.3% of U.S. adults now identify as LGBTQ+, with steep generational differences: Silent generation 1.8%, Boomers 3%, Gen X 5.1%, Millennials 14.2%, and Gen Z 23% (with notable gender gaps: Gen Z women 31% vs men 12%). The host links this rise to the removal of the Ten Commandments and weakening of moral absolutes, shares personal anecdotes about corporate Pride promotions, discusses Texas's move to restore the Ten Commandments in schools, and warns of societal consequences without a moral reset.

My guest today Sarah Noll Wilson, a renowned executive coach and author, today she talks about how leaders can foster genuine connections and navigate the complexities of human interactions to Leadership. Sarah Noll Wilson's path to leadership was unconventional. With a background in theater, she transitioned into leadership development, driven by a passion for The Journey understanding human behavior. Her book, "Don't Feed the Elephants," explores the importance of addressing unspoken issues in teams and organizations, emphasizing the need for open conversations. The Power of Repair: A central theme in Wilson's work is the concept of "repair" in relationships. She highlights how small, everyday interactions can build or break trust. By focusing on repair, leaders can create environments where team members feel valued and understood. This approach not only strengthens relationships but also enhances team performance. Authenticity in Leadership: Wilson stresses the importance of authenticity in leadership. She believes that leaders who embrace their vulnerabilities and show genuine care for their team members can foster a culture of trust and collaboration. Her insights encourage leaders to close the gap between intention and impact, ensuring their actions align with their values.

August 31, 2025 Welcome back to Grifty, the podcast where cult wellness, corporate greed, and authoritarian politics meet at a potluck dinner nobody wanted. Tonight's theme is Robert F. Kennedy Jr.'s Make America Healthy Again plan, better known as MAHA. The Trump team is branding it as a health revolution. But peel back the organic avocado sticker and it looks more like the same old MAGA project: pretend to fight for wellness while quietly dismantling the science and institutions that actually keep people alive. Let's dig in. ⸻ Segment 1: The Food Fight Nobody Ordered Robert F. Kennedy Jr., serving as Trump's Health Secretary, launched MAHA to target ultra-processed foods, artificial dyes, and chemical additives. Big food corporations such as Kraft Heinz, Mars, and Kellogg have already pledged to remove synthetic dyes by 2027 under mounting pressure (Axios (https://www.axios.com/2025/08/31/rfk-robert-kennedy-maha-food-plan)). Supporters frame MAHA as consumer protection. Critics see Kennedy using it to market himself as America's wellness crusader while sidelining medical professionals and spreading distrust in vaccines and science. Questions:     1.    Is this food reform real progress or just wellness-washed authoritarianism     2.    Should we be celebrating slightly cleaner Pop Tarts while the CDC is gutted behind the scenes ⸻ Segment 2: Polls Love Food Reform, Hate Science According to an Axios Ipsos survey, 87 percent of Americans support stronger food safety rules, with bipartisan backing (Axios (https://www.axios.com/2025/08/31/rfk-republicans-gop-business-make-america-healthy-again-maha)). Nobody is begging for more Red Dye No. 40. But vaccines remain a dividing line. Gallup found that Republicans are significantly less supportive of childhood vaccinations than Democrats, leaving MAHA as a unifying food crusade that simultaneously deepens America's science divide (Axios (https://www.axios.com/2025/08/31/rfk-republicans-gop-business-make-america-healthy-again-maha)). Food For Thought:     1.    Does this prove people only support science when it is about snacks     2.    What does it mean when food safety unites but basic vaccines divide ⸻ Segment 3: GOP Breaks Up With Big Food The Republican Party has suddenly distanced itself from Big Food. Instead of defending corporations, GOP leaders are aligning with suburban parents worried about chemical exposure and warning labels on junk food (Axios (https://www.axios.com/2025/08/31/rfk-republicans-gop-business-make-america-healthy-again-maha)). But corporate donors are not walking away quietly. Agricultural giants like Mountaire and Reyes Holdings are resisting regulation, and their financial influence means the fight is just beginning. Questions:     1.    What happens when Republicans break up with Big Food, and who is their rebound     2.    How long before Fox News says Biden wants to ban Oreos ⸻ Segment 4: MAHA's War on Science The Trump administration is using MAHA to undermine public health. The CDC is being overhauled and senior scientists are resigning in protest of political interference and Kennedy's rejection of mRNA technologies (The Hill (https://thehill.com/policy/healthcare/5475599-trump-administration-overhauls-cdc/amp/)). Experts warn this is not temporary. Cutting research programs and pushing conspiracy rhetoric risks decades of progress in medicine and public health Questions:     1.    What does America look like when essential oils replace vaccines     2.    How do we measure the long term cost of this brain drain from the CDC ⸻ Segment 5: Killing Cancer Research While Posing As Wellness Saviors While Trump and Kennedy promote MAHA as a children's health movement, they are simultaneously dismantling federal programs designed to find cures for cancer, Alzheimer's, and ALS (House Appropriations Committee (https://democrats-appropriations.house.gov/news/press-releases/trump-team-dismantles-efforts-find-cure-cancer-and-other-deadly-disorders-and)). The cruelty is in the timing. The New York Times reported promising breakthroughs from a new pediatric brain cancer trial group just this week (New York Times (https://www.nytimes.com/2025/08/28/well/pediatric-brain-cancer-trial-group.html)). While researchers bring hope to families, Washington is choking off the funding that sustains them. Questions:     1.    How do you square calling yourself pro child health while cutting cancer research     2.    Is this just political theater that uses kids as props ⸻ Segment 6: MAHA 2026 Political Weaponized Wellness Kennedy and Trump are positioning MAHA as a key wedge issue for the 2026 midterms. The strategy is to woo suburban women, independents, and younger voters with promises of food safety and wellness transparency (Axios (https://www.axios.com/2025/08/24/rfk-jr-maha-strategy-2026-midterms)). The contradiction is glaring. They say they care about your family's health, yet they are dismantling the very systems that could save your family from disease. It is not Make America Healthy Again. It is Make America Hypocritical Always. Questions:     1.    Is this wellness movement just MAGA wrapped in Whole30 branding     2.    How do Democrats fight back against a political cleanse disguised as health reform ⸻ OUTRO That is MAHA in all its kale washed glory. A movement pretending to save you from Lucky Charms while cutting off cancer research and gutting public health. This is violence with branding. Trump and Kennedy are not protecting families, they are using wellness as a mask for authoritarian power. Kendrick Lamar. Please take us out.

Send us a textWhat happens when Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce's engagement announcement collides with a passionate debate about the greatest party song of all time? Pure entertainment gold on The Jay Franze Show.Hosts Jay Franze and Tiffany Mason kick things off by diving into the swirling conspiracy theories surrounding Taylor Swift's engagement. From the podcast proposal cover-up (did Travis plan it all along?) to the significance of the number 13 in the announcement timing, they examine the most intriguing fan theories while sharing genuine excitement for the couple. The hosts balance healthy skepticism with appreciation for Swift's calculated brilliance, concluding that while some theories stretch credibility, the engagement genuinely appears to be a moment of authentic love rather than a marketing stunt.The conversation shifts to a lively roundup of country music news, exploring Russell Dickerson's deeply personal "Famous Back Home," Old Dominion's most vulnerable album yet, and Bon Jovi's surprising country collaborations with Lainey Wilson and Jelly Roll. When a Gallup poll suggests Americans are drinking less alcohol, the hosts contemplate whether this cultural shift might change country music's long-standing relationship with drinking themes - though they remain confident these classic motifs aren't disappearing anytime soon.The show's heart lies in an electrifying listener-driven debate about the greatest party song of all time. As nominations flood in ranging from Garth Brooks' "Friends in Low Places" to "Old Time Rock and Roll" and "Red Solo Cup," Jay and Tiffany methodically narrow down contenders through an entertaining elimination process that ultimately crowns "Celebration" as the undisputed champion. This segment showcases the show's remarkable connection with its audience, creating a virtual community gathering that feels like friends sharing music recommendations over drinks.LinksJay Franze: https://JayFranze.comVirtually You: https://www.virtuallyyouva.com/ Support the show

Why Personal Branding Feels So... Icky (And What to Do About It) This month, we're tackling a big myth: that personal branding means being polished, loud, or self-promotional. And for many leaders I work with, that can feel... icky. The truth? The most effective leaders don't try to be impressive—they focus on being irreplaceable.

President Donald Trump's approval rating rebounded in August, according to Gallup, reaching 40% — a three-point increase from July. It's the first uptick since February. His economic approval held steady at 37%, while his foreign affairs rating slipped to 39%. Gallup also found a historic partisan gap: 93% of Republicans approve of Trump's performance, compared with just 1% of Democrats. Satisfaction with the direction of the country surged among Republicans but dropped to nearly zero among Democrats.

Ralph welcomes constitutional scholar, John Bonifaz, co-founder and president of the group “Free Speech for People,” which has launched the non-partisan campaign “Impeach Trump. Again.” Plus, Ralph, Steve, and David discuss Donld Trump's servile corporatist agenda and his attempt to rig the midterms by ordering Texas to gerrymander him five more districts.John Bonifaz is a constitutional attorney and the co-founder and president of Free Speech For People. Mr. Bonifaz previously served as the executive director and general counsel of the National Voting Rights Institute, and as the legal director of Voter Action. In 2004, Mr. Bonifaz wrote the book Warrior-King: The Case For Impeaching George W. Bush.We either have a constitution,or we don't. We either have an impeachment clause, or we don't. If we're not going to invoke the impeachment power at this critical moment in our nation's history, then we might as well say we're giving up on the Constitution. We refuse to give up on the Constitution.John BonifazI think the biggest thing that we have to deal with are the naysayers. Those who somehow claim that we're not going to invoke the impeachment power because either it's not the right time, or he's already been impeached twice and what's the point or we just need to move on.John BonifazThese are high crimes against the state. These are not policy disputes. These are political high crimes against the state, for which you must be held accountable via the impeachment process.John BonifazI think it's disgraceful for any member who claims that they're out there defending the Constitution and defending our democracy, and yet they won't even want to mention the "I- word”. As much as I respect them on other fronts and what they do, if they're not invoking the impeachment clause at this critical hour, frankly, they're part of the problem.John BonifazNews 8/29/25* In an interview on “Hamakor” or “The Source” on Israel's Channel 13, former Biden State Department Spokesperson Matthew Miller said that Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu told former Secretary of State Antony Blinken that he planned to continue fighting in Gaza for decades, per the Middle East Eye. Other revelations in this interview include behind the scenes accounts of ceasefire negotiations, such as a story about Netanyahu blowing up a proposed six-week ceasefire with his declaration that Israel would invade Rafah “whether there was a ceasefire or not,” according to the Times of Israel. It is disgraceful that Miller and the Biden administration kept this information from the public at the time, but better late than never.* A new report in the Chronicle of Higher Education reveals that, “Hundreds of pages of previously unseen documents reveal that [Pennsylvania Governor Josh] Shapiro's office was intimately involved in managing the controversy [over the pro-Palestine demonstrations and encampments at the University of Pennsylvania], seizing an unprecedented level of influence over the university in the process.” Through a proxy, a lawyer named Robb Fox, Shapiro “pushed the university to ban Penn Students Against the Occupation of Palestine (PAO), its main pro-Palestinian student group,” and “worked closely with the Penn Israel Public Affairs Committee — a significant pro-Israel group on campus — to a great enough extent that PIPAC effusively thanked Shapiro and Fox for their ‘partnership.'” Shapiro putting his thumb on the scales against pro-Palestine student activism is sure to come back to haunt him if he seeks the presidential nomination in 2028, as many speculate he will.* In more foreign policy related news, investigative journalist Ken Klippenstein reports “The Trump administration has directed the military to prepare for lethal strikes against cartel targets inside Mexico…which are to be ready by mid-September.” This is the latest escalation in Trump's campaign against transnational criminal organizations, or TCOs, but critically, “sources say that military action could be unilateral — that is, without the involvement or approval of the Mexican government.” If so, this would constitute an extremely aggressive act within the sovereign territory of another country. It is unlikely that Mexico would respond with any kind of military action, but diplomatic and economic sanctions would be on the table.* In domestic political news, the Democratic National Committee held a much-anticipated meeting in Minneapolis on Tuesday, featuring dueling resolutions to lay out the party's position on Gaza – one of which called for a “military arms embargo and suspension of military aid to Israel.” As POLITICO reports, “The committee initially voted to reject that measure while advancing…one backed by [DNC Chair Ken] Martin, which called for ‘unrestricted' aid to Gaza and a two-state solution. But soon after the arms embargo vote failed, Martin announced he was withdrawing his successful resolution.” Martin stated “There's a divide in our party on this issue,” and urged Democrats to “keep working through” what their position should be. Allison Minnerly, the progressive Florida delegate who sponsored the more strident resolution, expressed that while she was glad Martin didn't ram through his preferred position, she considered the result “disappointing” when “it's clear what voters want.” According to Gallup, just 8% of Democrats approve of Israel's actions in Gaza.* More Democratic Party division surfaced in Minnesota this week, with Axios reporting that, based on a technicality, the state Democratic-Farmer-Labor Party's rules committee vacated the local DFL's endorsement of democratic socialist mayoral candidate Omar Fateh. Fateh, who has been hailed as the “Mamdani of Minneapolis” won the local party's endorsement in July, which gave him – rather than incumbent Mayor Jacob Frey – exclusive access to the party's voter database. According to this report however, a third candidate was wrongfully eliminated from the endorsement vote process, rendering the endorsement null and void. Fateh's campaign is understandably incensed by this decision and views it as an attempt by the state party to intervene on behalf of Frey. Moreover, Ryan Faircloth of the Star-Tribune reports “the state DFL committee [also] barred the Minneapolis DFL from holding another endorsing convention this year…placed the Minneapolis DFL on probation for two years and said it must be supervised by [the] state DFL executive committee.” Fateh co-campaign manager Graham Faulkner is quoted saying “Our campaign sees this for what it is: disenfranchisement of thousands of Minneapolis caucus-goers and the delegates who represented all of us on convention day…The establishment is threatened by our message…They are scared of a politics that really stands up to corporate interests and with our working class neighbors." Congresswoman Ilhan Omar called the move a “stain on our party.”* In more local politics news, the administration of New York City Mayor Eric Adams has been rocked by yet new corruption indictments. On August 21st, the office of Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg, “announced the indictment of INGRID LEWIS-MARTIN for accepting more than $75,000 in bribes…in a wide-ranging series of bribery conspiracies …while serving as Chief Advisor to the Mayor of the City of New York.” Lewis-Martin was previously charged in an alleged bribery conspiracy totaling more than $100,000 in December 2024. This new indictment is related to Lewis-Martin accepting bribes in exchange for favorable treatment by city agencies, including “help[ing] fast-track permit approvals for a karaoke bar in Queens,” and “hav[ing] the New York City Department of Transportation…withdraw its approval for a street redesign of McGuinness Boulevard in Brooklyn, which would have included new, protected bike lanes.” For the latter, Lewis-Martin allegedly received a speaking role on the television show Godfather of Harlem. This indictment further cements the comically corrupt reputation of the Eric Adams administration.* In more news of possible corruption, Unusual Whales, which tracks congressional stock trading, reported on August 19th that Florida Republican Senator Rick Scott just disclosed trades worth $26,000,000 more than a year late, noting that Scott “traded millions on companies he legislated.” Scott, one of Trump's closest allies in the Senate, previously served as CEO of Columbia/HCA, the largest for-profit healthcare company in the nation in the 1990s. He was forced to resign in 1997, when the Department of Justice won 14 felony convictions against the company and imposed a $1.7 billion fine, the largest healthcare fraud settlement in U.S. history up to that point.* Moving on to consumer news, the Federal Trade Commission has filed a lawsuit against “LA Fitness and other gyms over allegations they make it exceedingly difficult for consumers to cancel their gym memberships.” The agency is “seeking a court order prohibiting the allegedly unfair conduct and money back for consumers harmed by the difficulty in cancelling memberships.” This lawsuit is related to the FTC's “click to subscribe/call to cancel” rule, but these gyms go far beyond requiring customers to merely call to cancel their memberships. As the FTC explains, “LA Fitness has required consumers who want to cancel their membership to either go to the gym itself or send a cancellation notice by mail,” and they make both processes as difficult as possible. For instance, “consumers who tried to cancel in person…could only cancel with one specific employee, even though LA Fitness authorized several employees to sign consumers up for memberships. This restricted cancellation hours to times when consumers are typically at work, despite most locations operating up to 19 hours per day, seven days per week.” These kinds of mundane degradations are far too common throughout the economy and the only thing that will force companies to treat their customers with the respect they are due is regulatory action.* Our last two stories concern lawsuits against Amazon. First, Law360 reports a federal judge has ordered Amazon to disclose information “regarding the company's alleged ties to antitrust researchers.” In a series of antitrust cases, Amazon's “expert economists” have cited “various academic authors,” about whom the plaintiffs “have presented records suggest[ing Amazon] ‘has communicated with or funded.'” This includes “antitrust research by economists, scholars and think tanks that [were] ‘funded, solicited or edited' by the company.” This decision could prove to be momentous if it turns out that Amazon funding of antitrust research has been as deep and widespread as some believe. As the Lever's Luke Goldstein puts it, “Grifters are on notice. Clock is ticking.”* Finally, the Hollywood Reporter is out with a story on a proposed class action lawsuit against Amazon, filed in Washington Friday, over a “‘bait and switch' in which the company allegedly misleads consumers into believing they've purchased content when they're only getting a license to watch, which can be revoked at any time.” Essentially, this lawsuit revolves around the fact that despite marketing “purchases” of movies on their platform, these “purchases” can actually be revoked at any time if Amazon loses the rights to the film. This is also a case of a “fine print” contract; as this story notes, “On its website and platform, the company tells consumers they can ‘buy' a movie. But hidden in a footnote on the confirmation page is fine print that says, ‘You receive a license to the video and you agree to our terms.'” This issue has previously arisen with regard to video games, spawning the so-called “Stop Killing Games” movement which seeks to prevent companies from “destroying titles consumers had already bought.” California has responded to that movement by passing a law “barring the advertisement of a transaction as a ‘purchase' unless it offers unrestricted ownership of the product.” Amazon will surely deploy an army of lawyers to fight this case, but for the time being at least, the momentum is on the side of the consumers for once. We can only hope for their victory.This has been Francesco DeSantis, with In Case You Haven't Heard. Get full access to Ralph Nader Radio Hour at www.ralphnaderradiohour.com/subscribe

Have Americans changed their minds? Polling on immigration suggests a seismic shift in public opinion.According to Gallup, 79% of Americans now say immigration is a good thing for the country, which is a record high. Plus, the share of Americans who want lower rates of immigration has dropped from 55% in 2024 to 30% this year. And it's not just this poll showing a shift in how we think about immigration. But why has this change happened? And where might we see reverberations of this in our culture? Brittany digs into the data and the consequences for the Trump administration with Jasmine Garsd, NPR senior immigration correspondent, and Christian Paz, political correspondent at Vox.For handpicked podcast recommendations every week, subscribe to NPR's Pod Club newsletter at npr.org/podclub.Learn more about sponsor message choices: podcastchoices.com/adchoicesNPR Privacy Policy

Children have been killed and injured while attending mass at their K-8th grade Minneapolis Catholic school. The 23-year-old shooter brought multiple firearms: a pistol, a rifle, and a shotgun—all purchased legally and recently. President Trump has ordered flags lowered to half-staff, as did Minnesota's Governor Walz. Now, the FBI director says they are investigating the shooting as an act of domestic terrorism and possibly as a hate crime. Retired FBI agent and FOX News contributor Nicole Parker joins the Rundown to share where the investigation into this mass shooting may lead in the days to come as law enforcement searches for answers. A recent Gallup poll indicates that most Americans now believe moderate drinking is harmful to their health, contributing to a steady decline in alcohol consumption in recent years. Board-certified rheumatologist Dr. Mahsa Tehrani joins the podcast to discuss the link between alcohol use and increased cancer risk, the rise of the "sober curious" movement, and how this shifting public sentiment about alcohol consumption may influence upcoming revisions to the federal dietary guidelines. Plus, commentary from “The Mom Wars” podcast and Substack creator, Bethany Mandel. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices

But I don't want to focus on the Democrats right now. I want to focus on the Republican Party because one of the big things that's going to shape the midterms — which, make no mistake, are going to be nationalized — is how the American public feels about the GOP. That includes the party's overall image, the fact that they currently hold the House, Senate, and the White House, and the role of Donald Trump as president. Historically, that's usually the kiss of death in a midterm. The public looks at single-party control and, whether consciously or not, pulls back a bit. It's a check on power, and more often than not, it happens.I still believe, sitting here in late August of 2025, that Democrats are in a good position to take the House back in 2026. The redistricting mess adds some chaos, but even assuming that plays out neutrally or slightly in their favor, the historical precedent is clear — they should be competitive. That said, if we were heading toward something other than a typical midterm correction, you'd start to see signs. Not signs that Democrats are collapsing — that's already evident in other areas — but signs that voters are unusually comfortable with Republican governance.And you know what? Those signs are there.If I had to judge the early terrain by three hard metrics, I'd go with national fundraising, party registration, and the president's approval rating. Let's start with the money. The Republican National Committee currently has $65 million in cash on hand. That's not an overwhelming total, but it's strong — especially with a year to go. More importantly, it's four times what the Democratic National Committee has. The DNC is sitting on just $15 million. That gap alone is bad enough, but it gets worse when you factor in spending decisions like Proposition 50 in California. That fight — to temporarily override the independent redistricting commission — is going to vacuum up cash from the same organizations and donors who would otherwise be investing in House flips. So the Democrats are undercapitalized, and they're committing resources to side projects.Then there's registration data. According to a recent New York Times report, Democrats have lost 2.4 million registered voters in swing states that track party affiliation. In the same set of states, Republicans have gained nearly that same amount. That's a five million voter swing. It's not just that Democrats are losing — Republicans are growing. That kind of shift doesn't usually happen in the middle of a polarizing presidency. People don't suddenly start checking the box for the incumbent party unless something is resonating. And considering the kind of term Donald Trump is having — rapid policy implementation, constant headline churn, immigration crackdowns, inflation waves, even distractions like the Epstein debacle — you'd expect backlash. Instead, you get a net positive in party affiliation.That brings us to approval ratings. Trump's RealClearPolitics average stands at 46.3 percent. He's still underwater, with 50.8 percent disapproving. But let's add context. That number is higher than Joe Biden, Bill Clinton, Barack Obama, or even Ronald Reagan had at this same point in their second terms. That's unusual. And while being underwater is never ideal, that 4.5-point spread is about what you'd expect for Trump when you factor in how he's consistently undercounted in national polling. And the range of poll results is all over the map — Rasmussen has him up one, Harvard Harris has him down two, YouGov has him down 12, and Gallup just released a poll with him down 16. But even Gallup's number is an improvement from previous weeks, which suggests that Trump's “tough on crime” stance — especially in DC — is landing.So when I step back and look at the full picture, what I see is a Republican Party that isn't being punished. That might sound basic, but it's a big deal. Historically, you'd expect that by now — with the administration moving aggressively, Democrats hammering every misstep, and inflation rising — the electorate would be turning. But instead, Republicans have a funding advantage, a registration advantage, and a president who's polling better than most of his second-term predecessors.That doesn't mean they're going to hold the House. The historical pattern still favors Democrats picking up seats. But it does mean that the GOP is better positioned than it has any right to be under these circumstances. And if your theory of the midterms is based on Trump's agenda — the one big, beautiful bill, cutting Medicaid, handing out tax breaks, and all the rest — then you have to reckon with the fact that, at least for now, it isn't hurting them. Maybe that changes. But if this were going to backfire, I would have liked to have seen a little something from it by now.Chapters00:00:00 - Intro00:04:20 - Early Midterms Thoughts00:16:21 - Update00:16:42 - Abigail Spanberger00:23:47 - Trump's Chinese Students Plan00:27:55 - Lisa Cook00:33:54 - Interview with Amanda Nelson01:26:10 - Wrap-up This is a public episode.

A lot has happened so far since President Donald Trump took office for a second term, but one thing is certain- he's indisputably unpopular. According to Gallup, Trump's six-month approval rating was around 37-percent, which is lower than that of any other president at that point in their presidency. That's, of course, with the exception of Trump in his first term. But polling can be confusing. Because while Trump's approval ratings have taken a dive, so has the Democratic Party's favorability. According to The Wall Street Journal, 63-percent of voters have a negative view of the Democratic Party. So where does that leave us? Can we trust the polls to tell us how Americans really feel? To find out more, we spoke with Crooked's resident polling expert, Dan Pfeiffer.And in headlines: President Trump hosts South Korean President Lee Jae Myung at the White House, Israel's Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu says a strike on a hospital in Gaza was a "tragic mishap", and Trump signs an executive order to crack down on anyone who burns or desecrates the American flag.Show Notes:Subscribe to Crooked's substack –crookedmedia.substack.com/s/exclusive-contentCall Congress – 202-224-3121Subscribe to the What A Day Newsletter – https://tinyurl.com/3kk4nyz8What A Day – YouTube – https://www.youtube.com/@whatadaypodcastFollow us on Instagram – https://www.instagram.com/crookedmedia/For a transcript of this episode, please visit crooked.com/whataday
