Data from Gallup and the Bureau of Labor Statistics show that Americans are reading fewer books and spending less time reading than ever. There's been reporting on college kids struggling to finish longer texts. And earlier this year, in a viral post, one user lamented their loss of concentration for reading, which led to a larger online discourse about how to approach books again. Brittany revisits her convo with Elaine Castillo, author of the book How to Read Now, and Abdullah Shihipar, Research Associate at the People, Place and Health collective at Brown University, to get into why reading books is on the decline, the battle for our attention, and what people can do to get their reading grooves back.This episode originally published February 3, 2025.Learn more about sponsor message choices: podcastchoices.com/adchoicesNPR Privacy Policy

The Question That Changed Everything What if the key to unlocking your team's potential isn't in having the right answers—but in asking the right questions?

President Trump's Justice Department is now criminally investigating James Comey and John Brennan, apparently in retaliation for their role in the Russia probe. Trump vowed that they may “pay a price”—a direct threat to try to jail them on no basis whatsoever. Meanwhile, Trump is ramping up the paramilitary presence in Los Angeles. All this comes as Trump's approval is at a low point in polling averages and a striking new Gallup survey finds him plummeting fast on immigration, a remarkable indication of deep underlying weakness. We think all this is related: Trump's displays are meant to scam us into thinking he's fearsome and strong—making political resistance appear futile—yet all the authoritarianism is causing public backlash, weakening him in polls further. We talked to Talking Points Memo editor-at-large David Kurtz, who's been sharply dissecting Trump's threats. He explains how deep the abuses are running at DOJ, how Trump's authoritarianism is meant to mask political weakness, and why this toxic downward spiral portends worsening lawlessness to come.

The John Redhouse book tour makes its way to Albuquerque where comrades from Red Nation, Dr. Jennifer Denetdale and Red Power Hour co-host Melanie Yazzie join author John Redhouse to discuss his new book, Bordertown Clashes, Resource Wars, Contested Territories: The Four Corners in the Turbulent 1970s Watch the video edition on The Red Nation Podcast YouTube channel Press Release: "From the late summer of 1972 to the late summer of 1974, John Redhouse and many other Navajo and Indian rights activists threw all they had into mass movement organizing and direct action. And they were pretty good at it too in terms of effectiveness and impact. Written in the first-person and above all, with a collective spirit of generosity and witness, John Redhouse describes the hot temper of the times in the racist and exploitative border towns in the Four Corners area of the Southwest region. As John Redhouse says, “Without the People, you have nothing. But back then, we had a lot of people WITH us.” Yes, the Power of the People, the collective human spirit of the emerging local and regional Indian civil movement, thousands of us marching in the streets of Gallup and Farmington in northwestern New Mexico with our demands. A bold citizen's arrest at city hall, a downtown street riot, burning images of enemy leaders in effigy. And more marches, demonstrations, and direct actions. Above all, though, there was that Spirit—that unbroken, unconquerable spirit—that moved us, that drove us, that led us. And that was just in the border towns. In that turbulent decade, there was also the rapidly rising and spreading with-the-people, on-the-land resistance struggles in the coal, uranium, and oil and gas fields, and in disputed territories in the San Juan and Black Mesa basins that were targeted for ethnic cleansing and mineral extraction. Bordertown Clashes, Resource Wars, Contested Territories: The Four Corners in the Turbulent 1970s brings readers to the enduring issues of the day, traced over half a century ago, where John Redhouse and many more were in the middle of a revolution that unfolds to this day."

Behind deportation, there are personal stories to be shared.According to the poll, 79% of Americans say immigration is "a good thing" for the country, up from 64% a year ago, while only about 20% of adults say immigration is a bad thing, down from 32% last year.In this episode of the Lean to the Left Podcast, we explore the heart-wrenching consequences of Trump's harsh deportation policies with guest Robert Thompson. Robert shares the personal story of Miss Doris, a long-term Honduran immigrant and household cleaning lady, who is being forced to leave the country after 26 years.

Are some Americans changing how they think about immigration? AP correspondent Donna Warder reports.
Americans Are Divided On AIAmericans are divided on the implications of artificial intelligence. According to a recent Gallup poll, 49-percent of U.S. adults surveyed said AI is "just the latest in a long line of technological advancements that humans will learn to use to improve their lives and society." But the polling also found that the other 49-percent of respondents said AI is "very different from the technological advancements that came before, and threatens to harm humans and society." Marcus is totally down, I am being dragged kicking and screaming
After years of heated debate, a new Gallup poll shows that most Americans — including many Republicans — now favor immigration as a positive force in the country. Record-high support for a path to citizenship highlights a shift, even as Trump continues to push mass deportation policies and struggles with disapproval among Hispanic voters.

It's Wednesday, July 9th, 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 Chinese Communists imprison three church leaders Communist officials in China sentenced three church leaders to prison last month for alleged fraud. Pastor Li Jie and Elder Han Xiaodong received sentences of three years and eight months. Elder Wang Qiang received a sentence of one year and 11 months. They're from Linfen Covenant Home Church in China's northern Shanxi Province. The case has involved years of surveillance, arrests, and court delays. A statement from the church denounced the unjust sentencing, saying their leaders are “suffering for righteousness' sake and are willing to take up the cross with the Lord.” In Matthew 16:24-25, Jesus told His disciples, “If anyone desires to come after Me, let him deny himself, and take up his cross, and follow Me. For whoever desires to save his life will lose it, but whoever loses his life for My sake will find it.” Irish pro-lifers upset 50,000 babies killed since 2019 Thousands of people attended a pro-life rally in Dublin, Ireland on Saturday. People held signs and flags that said “Life Will Win” and “Stop Aborting Our Future.” Since 2019, over 50,000 unborn babies have been murdered in the womb in Ireland. Sandra Parda with The Life Institute said, “This is an issue the media wants to ignore, but how can we be blind to 50,000 lives ended in just over six years. It represents more than 100 schools or thousands of classes of children. It's part of Ireland's future growth and development and innovation ended before birth.” President Trump to visit flood-ravaged Texas In the United States, President Donald Trump announced he will visit Texas on Friday in the wake of catastrophic flooding there. Flash floods hit central Texas last Friday, killing at least 108 people. Most of the deaths were in Kerr County where 30 children died. Many of them were from Camp Mystic, a Christian girls camp. Local officials have reportedly been dodging questions about their emergency response preparedness. If you'd like to contribute to the on-the-ground help of Samaritan's Purse, make a donation through a special link in our transcript today at www.TheWorldview.com. U.S. Coast Guard rescue swimmer saved 165 lives at Camp Mystic During the tragic flooding, a U.S. Coast Guard rescue swimmer has emerged as a hero. Twenty-six-year-old Scott Ruskan and his crew were called in to help at Camp Mystic. He described his experience on ABC's Good Morning America. RUSKAN: “I got on scene, boots on the ground at Camp Mystic. Discovered I was the only person there as far as First Responders go. “So, yeah, I had about 200 kids. All scared, terrified, cold, having probably the worst day of their life. And I just kind of need to triage them, get them to a higher level of care.” Having only been a rescuer swimmer with the Coast Guard for six months, this was literally his first rescue mission. RUSKAN: “When I got on scene, there was 200 kids looking for someone for some sort of comfort and safety. They don't really know what my experience is or my rank or my age. They just know, hey, this guy's a professional and he's here to help us. And I kind of had to live up to that standard.” Remarkably, Ruskan is credited with saving 165 lives. However, he praised the courage of the children he rescued, calling them the real heroes. RUSKAN: “The real heroes, I think, were the kids on the ground like those guys are heroic. And, you know, they were dealing with some of the worst times their lives, and they were staying strong, and that helped inspire me to kind of get in there and help them out.” Elon Musk talks about forming The American Party On Saturday, Elon Musk announced the formation of his new political party. He wrote on X, “When it comes to bankrupting our country with waste and graft, we live in a one-party system, not a democracy. Today, The America Party is formed to give you back your freedom.” The tech billionaire said he will focus on the U.S. House and Senate over the next 12 months. Musk says the America Party will support free speech, the Second Amendment, reduced debt, and reduced regulations. Appearing on PBS News, Amy Walter of the Cook Political Report offered her analysis. WALTER: “Whether a third party goes anywhere and what he does with that, it feels like this is a person who's been upset by his experience within the current political system. So, he says, I'm going to take my ball, go home, and then make my own party. “The reality is he could have much more influence on politics if he took some of his millions and billions of dollars and actually focused it on a certain number of candidates or races of candidates who felt similarly to him on many of these issues. “Clearly, the fiscal issue in terms of the deficit is the one driving him in this case. But he has a lot of other policies that, if he funded a candidate on the Democratic or Republican side, would be really more efficient than starting another party.” IRS: Churches cannot lose tax-exempt status if they endorse candidates The Internal Revenue Service said in a court filing Monday that churches should not lose their tax-exempt status if they endorse political candidates from the pulpit. In the case, the IRS is joining churches and Christian groups in challenging the Johnson Amendment. The 1954 provision of the tax code prohibits 501(c)(3) nonprofit organizations from engaging in political activities. The IRS said, “Communications from a house of worship to its congregation in connection with religious services through its usual channels of communication on matters of faith do not run afoul of the Johnson Amendment as properly interpreted.” Family is top value of Americans And finally, Gallup released a new poll on the most important values to Americans. U.S. adults were the most likely to rank family as their top value, followed by freedom, health, integrity, and faith. Family is the most important value for nearly all major subgroups in the survey. The most notable exception is for those who attend religious services weekly. While family is important to them, faith is even more important. In Matthew 22:37-38, Jesus said, “‘You shall love the LORD your God with all your heart, with all your soul, and with all your mind.' This is the first and great commandment. And the second is like it: ‘You shall love your neighbor as yourself.'” Close And that's The Worldview on this Wednesday, July 9th, in the year of our Lord 2025.

The Listening Blind Spot Costing You Breakthrough Ideas You're asking for innovation—but are you really hearing it? There is a hidden communication gap that many leaders miss: the listening blind spot. One executive couldn't understand why his team wasn't sharing bold ideas—until he realized his own responses were shutting them down. True listening isn't just about staying quiet. It's learning to tune into different dimensions of what your team is saying. In today's episode, discover the four authentic listening patterns that unlock creativity, trust, and real breakthroughs.

Michael returns from vacation with a powerful reflection on patriotism in America—then and now. Sparked by a Gallup poll showing record-low pride in the U.S., he compares national data with his own take and responses from the audience. He also revisits a 1985 essay he wrote at age 23 about the American Dream—and unpacks how his perspective has changed over four decades. What does it mean to be “extremely proud” to be American today? And can the U.S. endure another 250 years? A must-listen conversation on national identity, generational divides, and the future of the American experiment. Original air date 7 July 2025.
L'émission 28 minutes du 07/07/2025 Et si nos ancêtres étaient aussi malins (voire plus) que nous ?Ce n'est pas la taille qui compte, mais l'utilisation que l'on en fait ! Antoine Balzeau, paléoanthropologue au CNRS et au Muséum d'Histoire Naturelle, s'intéresse au fonctionnement cognitif et à l'évolution du cerveau de nos ancêtres. Il révèle dans son ouvrage passionnant, “Dans la tête de nos ancêtres” (éditions Belin), que nous ne sommes finalement pas plus intelligents que l'homme de Néandertal. Cette découverte relève de l'exploit, tant elle est complexe : 4 années de recherches ont été nécessaires afin de mettre au point le projet “PaléoBRAIN”. Grâce aux dernières méthodes d'imagerie, à l'intelligence artificielle, et à partir de ce qu'on appelle l'endocrâne – le moule interne du crâne –, tout un ensemble d'empreintes, de petits creux et de reliefs qui correspondent aux sillons du cerveau ont pu être observés. À partir de là, Antoine Balzeau a sollicité 75 volontaires qui ont subi des IRM poussées, afin de reconstituer le cerveau de nos ancêtres. Et les découvertes sont édifiantes !Un clic et un nouveau parti : Musk peut-il faire vaciller Trump ? C'est un nouveau rebondissement dans le divorce le plus suivi des États-Unis. Alors qu'Elon Musk et Donald Trump semblaient partis pour une collaboration productive, une guerre d'égo, de pouvoir et d'intérêts fait rage par médias interposés depuis le départ fin mai du milliardaire du département de l'Efficacité gouvernementale (DOGE). Le 4 juillet dernier, surfant sur la tendance déjà observée en 2024 par l'institut de sondage américain Gallup, qui montrait qu'une nette majorité de personnes interrogées (58 % contre 37 %) jugeait “nécessaire” la création d'un troisième parti, Elon Musk lançait un sondage sur sa plateforme X pour demander aux internautes s'ils souhaitaient la création de son “Parti de l'Amérique”. Donald Trump a qualifié de “ridicule” cette initiative et s'est dit “peiné de voir Elon Musk dérailler complètement” et “devenir une catastrophe”. À ce duel verbal se sont ajoutées des piques sur la fameuse “BBB” (Big Beautiful Bill, ou “grande et belle loi”) qualifiée d“abomination dégoûtante” par Musk, et la disparition à terme des subventions aux voitures électriques qui pourrait faire perdre jusqu'à 3 milliards de dollars de profits à Tesla. Donald Trump a-t-il les moyens de ruiner son opposant ? Elon Musk peut-il contrer la politique de son adversaire avec la création de son parti ?Qui dit canicule, dit incendie. Mais la flotte de Canadairs française possède-t-elle de quoi dompter les flammes ? Théophile Cossa nous explique comment la France se prépare, en fabriquant de nouveaux bombardiers d'eau plus performants. Marjorie Adelson nous emmène à Cardiff, au Pays de Galles, où le groupe Oasis signe son grand retour, seize ans après une séparation explosive. 28 minutes est le magazine d'actualité d'ARTE, présenté par Élisabeth Quin du lundi au jeudi à 20h05.

Ross Douthat confronts Peter Thiel with the possibility that he is the anti-Christ. Zohran Mamdani shows a model for politics that the media fears. The Democrats' Project 2029 is a farce that shows leaders of the party don't actually want to win. Fascist public policy is here, and it's class war. According to Gallup, even most Americans think US hegemony sucks. The Pentagon's Elbridge Colby just halted missile shipments to Ukraine so that the US can more readily fight a war against China that it just can't win. Why European elites are embarrassing themselves.

Americans have less national pride than ever, according to new Gallup polling, with a big split along party lines. For many Kansas City residents, patriotism means more than a reflection of support for national political figures.
#podcast #politics #progressives #Democrats #Trump #MAGA #Republicans #Patriotism #Democracy #Fascism #WhiteChristianNationalism #WorkingClass #MAGAMurderBudget #Mamdani #LeftOfLansing Here's the Left of Lansing "Friday Short" for July 4, 2025. A new Gallup Poll on this Independence Day holiday reveals that American Pride is at an all-time low. That's not surprising with everything that's happened in the first half of this year, and with the passage of the MAGA Murder Budget which steals from the working class safety net and further enriches Old Money. Yet, despite feeling dispirited, millions of Americans oppose this fascist takeover, and are demanding for real, economically progressive change. And a majority of Americans refuse to give-up, and to allow MAGA Republicans to own the American flag and define what real patriotism is.

And it's splitting by party lines, new Gallup polling shows." By Linley Sanders and Amelia Thomson-Deveaux of The AP
In these segments, Tara delivers an unflinching look at two unfolding humanitarian and political crises. The first exposes a scathing report that the Biden administration knowingly placed thousands of migrant children with unvetted sponsors, including convicted criminals, fueling a system of trafficking, abuse, and neglect while dismantling safeguards like DNA testing. The second explores new studies indicating massive underreported COVID vaccine deaths—potentially up to 600,000 in the U.S.—and severe long-term side effects among teens. Tara contrasts the blackout of these issues by legacy media with rising distrust in America itself, as Gallup shows Democrats' pride in their country plunging to historic lows, and sympathy shifting dramatically toward Palestinians over Israelis. Together, these stories paint a picture of institutional collapse, moral abdication, and a nation in crisis.
In this extensive broadcast, Tara details alarming findings from peer-reviewed studies and official data estimating up to 600,000 U.S. deaths linked to COVID-19 vaccines—far surpassing what the media reports. She highlights underreported dangers of mRNA shots, including serious gastric illnesses and a surge in ER visits among vaccinated teens, while contrasting Japan and Denmark's public warnings with America's ongoing blackout. The show then pivots to expose a legal push to prevent deportations by citing alleged abuse in El Salvador's mega prison. Finally, Tara unpacks Gallup polling showing Democrats' record-low pride in America, and a stunning shift in sympathy toward Palestinians over Israelis—a transformation she argues is fueling the rise of far-left candidates and anti-American sentiment.
Today's coverage reveals a nation grappling with profound crises on every front. Tara first unpacks the Biden administration's alleged complicity in trafficking migrant children—placing thousands with unvetted, often criminal sponsors, dismantling Trump-era safeguards like DNA testing, and leaving tens of thousands of vulnerable minors unaccounted for. Next, she highlights a surge of peer-reviewed studies warning of severe, underreported harms linked to the COVID vaccines, including estimates of up to 600,000 deaths in the U.S. and long-term health impacts on teenagers. Simultaneously, Gallup polls expose an unprecedented collapse of patriotism among Democrats—just 36% now say they're proud to be American—while party sympathies shift decisively toward Palestinians over Israel, fueling radical politics and primary victories for socialist candidates. Tara weaves these stories into a sobering narrative: institutions in freefall, media silence shielding systemic failures, and a growing segment of Americans losing faith in their own country.
The gang dives into a new Gallup poll showing American pride at historic lows, with a record-breaking 56-point gap between Republicans and Democrats. They debate whether that decline signals a deeper national malaise or just partisan fatigue. Then they turn to Texas, where Governor Abbott vetoed a sweeping THC ban, keeping the state's booming hemp industry alive — for now. With court battles and special sessions looming, they unpack what smart regulation of cannabis products should actually look like.Chapters:00:00:00 - Intro00:12:44 - American Pride00:54:15 - Texas Weed01:22:59 - Emails01:55:59 - Wrap-up Hosted on Acast.

America is turning 250. And we're throwing a yearlong celebration of the greatest country on Earth. The greatest? Yes. The greatest. We realize that's not a popular thing to say these days. Americans have a way of taking this country for granted: a Gallup poll released earlier this week shows that American pride has reached a new low. And the world at large, which is wealthier and freer than it has ever been in history thanks to American power and largesse, often resents us. We get it. As journalists, we spend most of our time finding problems and exposing them. It's what the job calls for. But if you only focus on the negatives, you get a distorted view of reality. As America hits this milestone birthday, it's worthwhile to take a moment to step back and look closely at where we actually are—and the reality of life in America today compared to other times and places. That reality is pretty spectacular. Could Thomas Jefferson and the men gathered in Philadelphia who wrote down the words that made our world—“We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness”—ever have imagined what their Declaration of Independence would bring? The Constitution. The end of slavery—and the defeat of Hitler. Astonishing wealth and medical breakthroughs. Silicon Valley. The most powerful military in the world. The moon landing. Hollywood. The Hoover Dam. The Statue of Liberty (a gift from France). Actual liberation (a thing we gave France). Humphrey Bogart and Tom Hanks. Josephine Baker and Beyoncé. Hot dogs. Corn dogs. American Chinese food. American Italian food. The Roosevelts and the Kennedys. The Barrymores and the Fondas. Winston Churchill (his mom was from Brooklyn). The Marshall Plan and Thurgood Marshall. Star Wars. Missile-defense shields. Baseball. Football. The military-industrial complex. Freedom of religion. UFO cults. Television. The internet. The Pill. The Pope. The automobile, the airplane, and AI. Jazz and the blues. The polio vaccine and GLP-1s, the UFC and Dolly Parton. The list goes on because it's really, truly endless. Ours is a country where you can hear 800 languages spoken in Queens, drive two hours and end up among the Amish in Pennsylvania. We are 330 million people, from California to New York Island, gathered together as one. Each of those 330 million will tell you that ours is not a perfect country. But we suspect most of them would agree that their lives would not be possible without it. So for the next 12 months, we're going to toast to our freedoms on the page, on this podcast and in real life. And we're doing it the Free Press way: by delving into all of it—the bad and the good and the great, the strange and the wonderful and the wild. And today—on America's 249th birthday—we're kicking off this yearlong event with none other than Akhil Reed Amar. Akhil has a unique understanding of this country—and our Constitution. Akhil is a Democrat who testified on behalf of Brett Kavanaugh, is a member of The Federalist Society, who is pro-choice but also anti-Roe—and these seeming contradictions make him perfectly suited to answer questions about the political and legal polarization we find ourselves in today. Akhil is a constitutional law professor at Yale and the author of the brilliant book The Words That Made Us: America's Constitutional Conversation, 1760–1840. He also hosts the podcast Amarica's Constitution, and you might recognize his name from his work in The Atlantic. I ask him about the unique history that created our founding document, the state of the country, our political polarization, the American legal system, and what this country means to him.

Today, Stigall is feeling particularly appreciative of Donald Trump's leadership and decided to share an open letter saying so. Meanwhile, Gallup is out with a new poll saying American's sense of patriotism is falling, while GOP enthusiasm for Trump is at a record high. The Federal Reserve Chair refuses to lower interest rates and Stigall explains why that's so detrimental and why lowering rates can help all of us. You'll hear from the first energy company CEO who does exactly what Stigall has begged them to do for many years - go on offense. Can Republicans hang on in Virginia statewide? The "big, beautiful bill" inches along through he Senate as early as today, but not before Elon Musk fires off a post in anger over the spending levels. President Trump then responds. It's getting rocky as we head toward Independence Day but there are plenty of reasons for optimism! -For more info visit the official website: https://chrisstigall.comInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/chrisstigallshow/Twitter: https://twitter.com/ChrisStigallFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/chris.stigall/Listen on Spotify: https://tinyurl.com/StigallPodListen on Apple Podcasts: https://bit.ly/StigallShow-Help protect your wealth with real, physical gold and silver.

Trump Visits “Alligator Alcatraz” Amid Immigration Firestorm President Trump visits a new detention facility for illegal immigrants deep in Florida's Everglades. Nicknamed “Alligator Alcatraz,” the site was built in secrecy using Biden-era hotel funds, sparking lawsuits from environmentalists and migrant groups. Meanwhile, the Senate fails to pass a Medicaid ban for illegal immigrants, and House Republicans move forward with a bill to deport those arrested for DUIs. LA Sued for Sanctuary Policies, Activists Launch ICE-Tracking App The Trump administration sues Los Angeles for violating the Constitution's Supremacy Clause with its sanctuary city policies. At the same time, a Democrat activist and Antifa supporter launches an app to help migrants avoid ICE agents. Critics warn the app could incite violence against law enforcement, especially as pride in America drops sharply among Democrats, according to new Gallup polling. Hamas Crumbles in Gaza as Netanyahu Eyes Peace Israel's operation in Gaza has killed top Hamas leaders and brought 75% of the territory under Israeli control. Internal resistance to Hamas is growing among Palestinian clans, even as militants continue sporadic attacks. The U.S. now faces a strategic dilemma after depleting 20% of its anti-missile stockpiles during the conflict. Russia's Offensive Stalls, Ukraine Sends Grandfathers to the Front Russia's summer offensive falters due to poor morale, corruption, and untrained soldiers. Ukraine, running low on manpower, is deploying men in their 50s and 60s to the front lines, while corruption plagues the country's funeral industry amid surging war casualties. Mexican Cartels Use AI to Track and Kill FBI Informants A DOJ report reveals that the Sinaloa Cartel used cellphone metadata and Mexico City surveillance to track U.S. officials and murder FBI informants. The breach highlights growing dangers of digital surveillance and "digital exhaust," with Bryan urging listeners to reduce their own digital footprint.

This episode is presented by Create A Video – New polling shows Democrats and younger generations are not proud of their country or being American.

In this special Independence Week episode, Todd Huff reflects on what it means to be truly American—beyond party lines or who's in office. Drawing from a recent Gallup poll showing only 36% of Democrats say they're “very proud to be American,” and a candid conversation with a left‑of‑center neighbor, Todd explores how pride in America isn't conditional on presidents or political trends. He shares a high school football coach's halftime lesson—stronger identity isn't defined by performance—and connects it to the blessings of freedom, opportunity, and citizen leadership that define the American experiment. This isn't about blind patriotism, but a humble gratitude for the foundational ideas and freedoms that make America exceptional. Plus, Todd discusses the differences between biblical pride and patriotic honor, and encourages genuine conversations across ideological lines—even with those who disagree. Tune in for a thoughtful, respectful take on patriotism this holiday week and stay tuned for actionable faith‑based investing advice and health tips.

Jim is back though Greg is gone for today's 3 Martini Lunch. In his stead is radio personality Craig Collins. Join Craig and Jim as Independence Day week kicks off with a good, a bad, and a crazy bit of news. The week begins with Canada rescinding their digital service tax in response to Mr. Trump's Truth Social post, North Caroline Senator Thom Tillis and Nebraska Rep. Don Bacon will not be seeking reelection, and a Gallup poll finds that pride in America is significantly down from last year. First, Craig and Jim are pleased that just two days after Trump declared on Truth Social that he was suspending trade talks with Canada over their digital services tax, Canada announces they're rescinding the tax. Jim argues this tax to be particularly unfair and discriminatory toward U.S. businesses. Craig notes how Trump has been following through on his threats, and Canada seems unwilling to test him on this. Next, they mourn the bad news that North Carolina Senator Thom Tillis AND Nebraska Rep. Don Bacon will not be seeking reelection. Because the Republican Party won by narrow margins in those states, Jim worries this may swing states blue making it a good week for the DSCC and DCCC.Last, they are aghast at the recent Gallup poll which shows pride in America to be down significantly from last year particularly among Democrats. Jim is amused that Democrats felt more pride in the country when President Biden was in office. Ultimately, Jim and Craig argue that pride in one's country should not be contingent upon who is in office. Please visit our great sponsors:No missed calls, no missed customers with OpenPhone.

Is your drinking water contaminated by Chemical Abortion Pills? The EPA has been silent—but we're demanding answers. In today's episode, Kristan Hawkins breaks down the alarming health concerns surrounding Abortion Pill pollution and what needs to be done about it. Then, I expose the truth behind late-term abortion in America, with a shocking look at a new Chicago abortion vendor offering procedures up to 34 weeks. Yes, that's well into the third trimester. Finally, new Gallup polling reveals where Americans really stand on abortion—and spoiler: it's not what the media wants you to think.
