CannCon and Zak Paine return after the holiday break with a packed episode, opening on the heartbreaking Stockton shooting that left four young people dead before diving into the Treasury Department's new crackdown on illegal remittances sent by migrants working unlawfully in the U.S. They break down how this FinCEN move threatens cartel cash flow, destabilizes sanctuary-state politics, and directly challenges a decades-old system exposed by a newly surfaced 1983 CIA memo. The hosts then turn to Oregon, where the state's attorney general and governor are threatening to arrest federal agents enforcing immigration law, a constitutional confrontation they say is coming to a head. From there, they explore Operation Allies Welcome failures, Afghan nationals flagged for terror ties, and the deeper implications behind the recent D.C. National Guard attack. The show also highlights Trump's escalating posture toward transnational cartels and Venezuela, media attempts to undermine anti-cartel strikes, and how the intelligence community is reacting.

In the late-1980s, Father Gregory Boyle witnessed the devastating  impact of gang violence in his community during the so-called Decade of  Death that peaked at 1,000 gang-related  killings in 1992 in Los Angeles.  In the face of criminal justice policies of  suppression and mass incarceration, Father Boyle and community members adopted what was a radical approach – at the time – to treat gang members as human  beings. In 1988, they started what would eventually become Homeboy  Industries, which employs and trains former gang members in a range of  social enterprises, as well as provides critical services to thousands of  men and women who walk through its doors every year seeking a better life. Father Greg Boyle spoke with Movement Is Life's Dr. Bonnie Simpson Mason for an episode that was originally published in 2020.

MS-13 brought El Salvador to its knees and has spread to a dozen other nations, doing battle with presidents as much as rival gangs. Yet despite its infamy, MS-13 is poorly understood: It has little in common with the cartels, traffickers, or mafias that it's often lumped in with.What is the violent logic behind MS-13, and why has it grown steadily more powerful during both crackdowns and truces? Has President Nayib Bukele's unprecedented brutality finally turned the tide against MS-13 in El Salvador, and does he have a plan for what comes next? If it takes an autocrat to slay a gang, should countries trade one beast for another?Steven Dudley, author of the award-winning book MS-13: The Making of America's Most Notorious Gang, joins Jon Bateman for a gripping new episode of The World Unpacked.Find the episode transcript, video episode, and get the show direct to your inbox, here.Follow Jon on X (https://x.com/JonKBateman) here.

Randall Ray Love, 47, has been charged in connection with an arson investigation at Enforcers Motorcycle Club, which was set ablaze at around 6 a.m. on Sept. 11.

What happened resulted from the usual suspects and not from them. Therefore their name should be cleared. They had nothing to do with shooting 90 rounds at their clubhouse. Join us as we discuss.

In this episode, Hawk discusses El Salvador, its current President Nayib Bukele, and the controversial CECOT prison. Hawk provides historical context about El Salvador from pre-colonial times through its civil war, explaining how gangs like MS-13 and Barrio 18 (which originated in Los Angeles) created severe violence in El Salvador until Bukele's crackdown beginning in 2022. The video details how El Salvador became the murder capital of the world before Bukele implemented a state of exception that suspended constitutional rights.Hawk extensively describes the CECOT terrorism confinement center, a massive prison built in just six months that now holds over 14,500 inmates in inhumane conditions. The prison features 30-foot walls, 24-hour artificial lighting, no windows, and cells where up to 160 prisoners share two toilets and two water buckets. Hawk explains that President Bukele claims no prisoner has ever been released from CECOT except one deportee, Kilmar Abrego Garcia, who was recently moved to another facility after a U.S. Senator's intervention.The episode also covers the recent arrangement between the Trump administration and El Salvador where the U.S. has deported alleged gang members to CECOT, including many with no criminal record. Hawk notes that Trump has expressed desire to send U.S. citizens to this prison despite legal experts saying this would be impossible under U.S. law. The video concludes with observations about El Salvador's improved safety under Bukele's authoritarian approach and the complex trade-offs between security and human rights.

In this episode of "Sara Gonzales Unfiltered," Sara exposes the growing chaos under the Biden-Harris administration. The episode kicks off with a shocking report from Chicago, where 32 armed Venezuelan gang members trespassed in a South Side apartment, and highlights similar incidents in Colorado, underscoring the dangerous consequences of open-border policies. Sara then delves into the FBI's suppression of the Nashville Covenant School shooter's diary, questioning the agency's motives and the broader implications for mental health and trans ideology. The show takes a global turn as Sara discusses Brazil's Supreme Court shutting down X (formerly Twitter) and freezing Elon Musk's Starlink assets, a move supported by American figures like Minnesota Attorney General Keith Ellison, who praised Brazil's actions. Sara draws alarming parallels to censorship efforts in the U.S., warning that such measures could easily be implemented domestically under the wrong administration, especially with figures like Kamala Harris and her allies who have shown a willingness to support such overreach. The episode also critiques Harris' inauthentic campaign tactics, revealing her as an "empty vessel" who panders to different audiences without any real conviction. Sara dives into a revealing segment on Amazon's Alexa, highlighting a stark bias when discussing Kamala Harris versus Donald Trump, raising concerns about the influence of technology on politics.
