This week's podcast deals with the Coup in Guatemala in 1954 where the CIA backed a coup and regime change in order to prevent a communist takeover or help the United Fruit Company's bottom line depending on who you ask.  The previous government had supported better working conditions and had redistributed uncultivated land away from large landholders (i.e. UFC) which triggered the United States' greatest fear at the time, communism (or possibly loss of corporate profit).  Take a listen and see what you think about operation PBSuccess.

AI companies are hitting growth milestones in record time—some reaching $100 million in revenue in just two years. But while this pace feels familiar in tech, healthcare has always been slower to adopt new tools. That may finally be changing.Kent Bennett and Sofia Guerra of Bessemer Venture Partners join Steve Kraus to unpack findings from Bessemer's State of AI 2025 report and what they mean for healthcare. From “supernovas” and “shooting stars” to the rise of systems of action, they explore how AI is reshaping not only software businesses but also the way doctors, health systems, and patients interact with technology.We cover:

(Día de la Independencia de Guatemala) (Himno cantado por Carlos Rey en audio y en video) Si bien Guatemala se independizó de España oficialmente el 15 de septiembre de 1821, no fue sino hasta 1896, setenta y cinco años después, que se juzgó necesario que tuviera un himno nacional. Ese año, durante el gobierno del general José María Reyna Barrios, se convocó a un certamen en el que resultó premiada la música de un compositor guatemalteco y la letra de un poeta anónimo. El compositor era Rafael Álvarez Ovalle, oriundo de San Juan Comalapa, Chimaltenango. Pero no se conocía aún la identidad del autor de esa letra del Himno Nacional de Guatemala cuando se estrenó el 14 de marzo de 1897 en el Teatro Colón. No fue sino hasta 1910 que se descubrió que era el poeta cubano José Joaquín Palma, originario de San Salvador de Bayamo, quien había formado parte del jurado que premió su composición literaria. En julio de 1911, el gobierno guatemalteco le rindió tributo al poeta Palma con un desfile que partió del teatro Colón hacia su residencia poco antes de su muerte, y el 15 de septiembre de ese mismo año le rindió homenaje al maestro Álvarez condecorándolo con corona de plata, medallas y ofrendas florales. En 1934, se aprobaron ligeras modificaciones en algunos de los versos del poema original de José Joaquín Palma, según las anotaciones hechas por el gramático jalapaneco José María Bonilla Ruano.1 He aquí la primera estrofa y el primer coro del himno como se cantan actualmente: ¡Guatemala feliz...! que tus aras no profane jamás el verdugo; ni haya esclavos que laman el yugo ni tiranos que escupan tu faz. Si mañana tu suelo sagrado lo amenaza invasión extranjera, libre al viento tu hermosa bandera a vencer o a morir llamará. Libre al viento tu hermosa bandera a vencer o a morir llamará; que tu pueblo con ánima fiera antes muerto que esclavo será. Gracias a Dios, a Él le importa lo mismo o aún más que al pueblo guatemalteco que se cumpla el deseo del poeta: que Guatemala sea feliz porque sus gobernantes se dediquen a hacer felices a sus conciudadanos; que sus altares no se manchen jamás con la sangre de sus hijos ni con actos indignos que empañen la gloria de su nombre; y que nadie sea humillado, sino que se respete la vida, la integridad física y la libertad de cada uno, cualquiera que sea su condición social.2 Porque Dios envió a su Hijo Jesucristo al mundo a ser humillado en una cruz y a morir por nuestros pecados, pagando así el precio de nuestro rescate, para que nosotros no tengamos que ser esclavos de nada ni de nadie, sino que seamos verdaderamente libres.3 Carlos ReyUn Mensaje a la Concienciawww.conciencia.net 1 Luis Alfredo Arango, Análisis de la letra del Himno Nacional de Guatemala (Guatemala: Editorial Piedra Santa, 2002). pp. 1-3,8; «109 Aniversario del Himno Nacional de Guatemala», deGUATE.com (Directorio Electrónico de Guatemala), 14 marzo 2006 En línea 30 octubre 2008. 2 Arango, p. 9. 3 Is 53:7; Mt 20:28; Mr 10:45; Fil 2:6-8; 1Ti 2:5-6; Heb 9:11-12

This Day in Legal History: Nuremberg Laws EnactedOn this day in legal history, September 15, 1935, Nazi Germany enacted the Nuremberg Laws, codifying one of the most infamous legal frameworks of racial discrimination and hate in modern history. Announced at the annual Nazi Party rally in Nuremberg, these laws included the Law for the Protection of German Blood and German Honor, the Reich Citizenship Law, and later, the Law for the Protection of the Hereditary Health of the German People. Together, they stripped Jews of German citizenship, prohibited marriage and sexual relations between Jews and “Aryans,” and laid the groundwork for systematic persecution.The Reich Citizenship Law divided citizens into two classes: full citizens, who were of "German or related blood," and subjects, who were denied full political rights. Jews were relegated to the latter category. The Law for the Protection of German Blood and German Honor banned intermarriage and extramarital relations between Jews and Germans, criminalizing personal relationships based on ancestry. Violators could be imprisoned or sent to concentration camps.To enforce these laws, the Nazi regime devised elaborate charts and pseudoscientific metrics to assess Jewish ancestry, culminating in a 1936 chart issued by the Reich Health Office. This visual aid defined citizens by the number of Jewish grandparents they had, assigning labels like Mischling (mixed race) to those with partial Jewish heritage. Even one Jewish grandparent could strip a person of civil rights.The Law for the Protection of the Hereditary Health of the German People added a eugenic dimension, requiring couples to undergo genetic testing before marriage and barring those deemed "genetically unfit" from reproducing. These legal measures normalized state-sponsored racism and laid a legal foundation for the Holocaust.Big Law firm Perkins Coie terminated an attorney over a social media post that appeared to criticize conservative figure Charlie Kirk following his shooting death. The firm stated the post did not align with its values and that the lawyer's conduct fell significantly below professional expectations. The firing was made effective immediately. Kirk, 31, served as executive director of Turning Point USA and was a prominent supporter of Donald Trump. He was fatally shot while speaking at an event at Utah Valley University. Perkins Coie has a history of political entanglements, notably becoming one of the first law firms to sue Trump after his executive orders targeted firms representing political adversaries. These orders reportedly restricted access to federal facilities, revoked security clearances, and jeopardized client contracts. The firm was a particular focus for Trump due to its work during Hillary Clinton's 2016 campaign, including hiring Fusion GPS to conduct research that led to the Steele dossier, which alleged ties between Trump's campaign and the Russian government.Perkins Coie Fires Attorney Over Social Media Post on Kirk ShootingU.S. District Judge Timothy Kelly extended a temporary block on the deportation of unaccompanied Guatemalan children with active immigration cases. The move halts a Trump-era effort that attempted to deport 76 minors without proper notice or legal process, including waking children in the early hours of August 31 to board planes. The judge's ruling followed a contentious September 10 hearing, where he criticized a Justice Department attorney for falsely claiming that all the children's parents had requested their return. A report from the Guatemalan Attorney General's Office later revealed that most parents couldn't be located, and many of those found did not want their children repatriated.The children in question mostly come from Guatemala's Indigenous, rural regions—Huehuetenango, San Marcos, Quiché, and Alta Verapaz—areas known for high poverty and malnutrition. Guatemalan officials emphasized that such a large-scale repatriation request was unprecedented. Some families reportedly mortgaged their homes to finance the children's migration, indicating the high stakes involved.US judge extends block on deportations of unaccompanied Guatemalan migrant children | ReutersU.S. District Judge William Alsup ruled that the Trump administration unlawfully directed the mass firing of around 25,000 federal probationary employees earlier this year. These workers, many of whom had served in their roles for less than a year, were dismissed under a directive from the U.S. Office of Personnel Management (OPM) in February. The mass terminations sparked lawsuits from unions, nonprofits, and the state of Washington, arguing the firings lacked legal justification.Judge Alsup found that the OPM's directive was unlawful and "pretextual," noting the terminations were falsely framed as performance-related. While he acknowledged that the workers had been harmed, he declined to order their reinstatement, citing recent U.S. Supreme Court rulings limiting judicial power over executive branch hiring and firing decisions. Specifically, the Supreme Court had previously paused a preliminary injunction in April that would have reinstated 17,000 employees.Despite not ordering reinstatement, Alsup mandated that 19 federal agencies, including Defense, Veterans Affairs, and Treasury, correct the employment records of affected workers by November 14. He also prohibited agencies from continuing to follow OPM's original directive. Union leaders praised the decision for confirming the firings were baseless and for requiring agencies to acknowledge the false rationale behind the terminations.Trump administration unlawfully directed mass US worker terminations, judge rules | ReutersThe University of California, Berkeley confirmed it had shared information on 160 students, faculty, and staff with the Trump administration, in response to a federal investigation into alleged antisemitism. The data was provided to the U.S. Department of Education's Office for Civil Rights as part of an ongoing probe linked to pro-Palestinian protests on campus. The university stated that it acted under legal obligation while striving to protect individual privacy and notified those affected.This move comes amid a broader effort by the Trump administration to penalize universities accused of allowing antisemitic behavior, particularly during recent demonstrations opposing Israel's actions in Gaza. Critics argue that the administration is conflating political protest and advocacy for Palestinian rights with antisemitism, raising serious concerns about free speech, academic freedom, and due process.Trump has threatened to cut federal funding to institutions involved in such protests and attempted to deport foreign student demonstrators, though those efforts have faced legal challenges. The administration has already reached high-profile settlements with Columbia and Brown universities and is in ongoing talks with Harvard. A proposed $1 billion settlement with UCLA was publicly rejected by California Governor Gavin Newsom, who called it extortion.UC Berkeley shares information on dozens of students, staff with Trump administration | Reuters This is a public episode.

It's hard to believe some of the stories of deceit and corruption by Donald Trump and Pam Bondi's DOJ officials and attorneys are real. But as Politico just reported: "DOJ backs off claims about Guatemalan children it sought to deport".The case involves parents who were located in Guatemala but who had children in the United States. In a staggering display of lying to a court, a DOJ attorney named Drew Ensign told a judge that "all of the parents and guardians" in Guatemala wanted their children deported from the US back to Guatemala.It turns out that NONE of the parents and guardians of children said any such thing. Indeed, a subsequent DOJ attorney who appeared in the case withdrew and retracted the false statement.Glenn discusses this legal development and suggests that the court take action to hold Ensign accountable for providing false information to the court in an apparent effort to trample the due process rights of Guatemalan children.For nightly live Law Talks, please join Glenn on Substack: glennkirschner.substack.comIf you're interested in supporting our all-volunteer efforts, you can become a Team Justice patron at: / glennkirschner If you'd like to support Glenn and buy Team Justice and Justice Matters merchandise visit:https://shop.spreadshirt.com/glennkir...Check out Glenn's website at https://glennkirschner.com/Follow Glenn on:Threads: https://www.threads.net/glennkirschner2Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/glennkirschner2Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/glennkirsch...Bluesky: https://bsky.app/profile/glennkirschn...TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/glennkirschner2See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

(15 de septiembre: Aniversario del Acta de Independencia Centroamericana) Era el 14 de septiembre de 1821, víspera del día en que se había convocado a una reunión en el Palacio de Gobierno de Guatemala entre autoridades de las provincias y representantes de la universidad, de la Iglesia y de las autoridades civiles a fin de decidir si Centroamérica habría de separarse de España. Uno de ellos, que apoyaba decididamente las aspiraciones independentistas, era el guatemalteco Pedro Molina. Esa víspera, su esposa, María Dolores Bedoya, mostrando lo solidaria que era con él en sus convicciones políticas, visitó los barrios más habitados de la ciudad, invitó a su vez al pueblo a una reunión frente al palacio con el propósito de llenar la plaza en apoyo a la independencia, y se encargó de que hubiera música y fuegos artificiales para festejar la esperada proclama. Durante la histórica reunión del día siguiente, mientras los cincuenta y seis miembros de la junta presentaban sus argumentos a favor y en contra de la declaración de independencia, Bedoya arengaba al pueblo en la plaza. Pero al comenzar a repetirse los argumentos para retrasar la proclama de independencia, comenzaron también a oírse en el recinto explosiones de pólvora, cohetes y música. Fue tal la algarabía que los opositores a la independencia creyeron que había estallado la revolución y se apresuraron a proclamarla.1 En el prólogo del acta misma de independencia redactada por José Cecilio del Valle consta que llegaron al acuerdo «congregados todos en el mismo salón; leídos los oficios expresados; discutido y meditado detenidamente el asunto, y oído el clamor de “¡Viva la independencia!” que repetía lleno de entusiasmo el pueblo que se veía reunido en las calles, plaza, patio, corredores y antesala de este palacio...»2 Por eso algunos historiadores sostienen que la agitación del pueblo de parte de María Dolores Bedoya contribuyó a que se proclamara la independencia centroamericana. Y por eso en algunas ciudades centroamericanas en la víspera del 15 de septiembre los niños celebran un desfile con faroles iluminados.3 Entre otras cosas, en el acta «se acordó... que siendo la Independencia del Gobierno Español la voluntad general del pueblo..., el Señor Jefe Político la mande publicar para prevenir las consecuencias, que serían temibles en el caso de que la proclamase de hecho el mismo pueblo.... [y] que [siendo] la paz y sosiego... la primera necesidad de los pueblos cuando pasan de un gobierno a otro,... los que estando unidos en el sentimiento general de la independencia deben estarlo también en todo lo demás, sofocando pasiones individuales que dividen los ánimos y producen funestas consecuencias.»4 Quiera Dios que así como en el siglo diecinueve el aludido Jefe Político Gabino Gaínza, último gobernador español en Centroamérica, no sólo firmó el acta sino que logró que las autoridades españolas aceptaran la nueva situación pacíficamente sin que tuviera que derramarse sangre en batalla alguna,5 también nosotros en el siglo veintiuno sofoquemos pasiones individuales y busquemos la paz. Pues si buscamos la paz y la seguimos, sostiene San Pedro, podremos «gozar de días felices».6 Carlos ReyUn Mensaje a la Concienciawww.conciencia.net 1 «Independencia de Centroamérica», La Nación En línea 6 septiembre 2008; Luis Arritola, «Mujeres insurgentes», La Opinión En línea 10 abril 2009. 2 «Acta de Independencia del 15 de septiembre de 1821» En línea 10 febrero 2009. 3 «México y América Central festejan casi dos siglos de independencia», La Opinión En línea 10 abril 2009; Wikipedia, s.v. «María Dolores Bedoya» En línea 10 abril 2009. 4 «Acta de Independencia del 15 de septiembre de 1821». 5 «Independencia de Centroamérica», La Nación. 6 1P 3:10-11

Don and Tom dig into international investing — why diversification across borders is essential, why timing international markets is a mistake, and how currency fluctuations affect returns. They revisit Japan's lost decades, talk emerging markets, discuss John Bogle's arguments against international investing, and explain why owning all markets all the time makes the most sense. Listener questions cover tax perceptions about California, long-term return comparisons, 401(k) rollover and Rule of 55 withdrawals, and the realities of retiring abroad — including the sticker shock of Guatemala's healthcare spending. 0:04 Should you invest internationally now that foreign markets are rising? 1:29 Morningstar data shows non-U.S. markets doubling U.S. returns in 2025. 2:38 The dollar's weakness as a key factor in performance. 3:20 Mexico, Brazil, Japan, and China's strong year — but should you chase it? 4:02 Market leadership cycles: U.S. vs. international across decades. 4:50 The “1990 Japan” cautionary tale: why timing single markets can disappoint. 6:17 Concentration risk, emerging markets, and why you need global diversification. 7:33 Exposure to global companies you can't get by owning U.S.-only funds. 8:42 Dimensional's chart shows no country wins every year — own them all. 9:40 Addressing the John Bogle “you already own international through U.S. firms” argument. 10:21 Nestlé example: why local economy exposure matters. 12:45 Listener Greg challenges Don's California tax comment — clarification given. 13:45 State tax comparisons, why there's no perfect tax haven. 14:41 New York vs. California tax burdens — where it's worst. 15:30 Listener Tim asks about long-term return periods — Don points to IFA data. 17:40 1,700+ episodes milestone and show longevity banter. 18:30 Listener Jeff's complex retirement accounts and Rule of 55 rollover question. 19:09 Discussion of retiring abroad and health care concerns in Guatemala. 22:20 U.S. health care spending vs. Guatemala — a sobering gap. 23:39 Gallows humor about quick death and end-of-life planning.

In September 2025, I took the stage at Shoshanna Raven's Living Brave Live to share a story that has shaped every part of my life, my leadership, and the global movement I've built through SoulWork. This is a deeply personal talk about what it takes to rise as a woman who is devoted to both spiritual depth and business mastery, while creating a legacy of holy redistribution and meaningful impact in the world. The journey begins in the red-light districts of Kolkata, India, where I first encountered the raw edges of human suffering while working alongside survivors of human trafficking. That experience forever changed me. It sparked a defining moment in a cracked mirror, where I asked myself if I was willing to give up everything to be the one who took action — and made the decision to stop waiting for somebody somewhere to do something, and instead become that somebody myself. Out of that moment, SoulWork was born — an organization dedicated to training trauma-informed yoga teachers, leading global retreats, and supporting humanitarian projects around the world. Since its founding in 2015, SoulWork has: Certified thousands of teachers worldwide Built schools and classrooms in India, Guatemala, and Costa Rica Created programs that merge trauma-informed leadership with spiritual practice Crossed $3 million in lifetime revenue while staying rooted in purpose and integrity But my journey hasn't always been easy. Behind the scenes of sold-out retreats and visible success, I struggled with financial scarcity, debt, and the pressure of carrying a global mission. I share how I went from being overextended and exhausted — running 50 retreats a year — to completely restructuring my business into a sustainable, high-profit, low-maintenance model. This shift didn't just transform my business, it transformed my life. It gave me the space to: Renovate my grandfather's home in cash Build a stable financial foundation for my family Deepen my spiritual practice as a lineage carrier in the Himalayas Expand my humanitarian efforts in a way that is truly sustainable In this episode, I also introduce the archetype of the Philanthropic Femme — a rare kind of woman who embodies three essential pillars: Spiritual Depth – devotion to personal practice and a connection to something greater than herself Business Mastery – the strategy, systems, and leadership required to scale her vision Holy Redistribution – using wealth to fund movements, support marginalized communities, and create systemic change This talk is an invitation to every woman who feels the tension between her desire for inner fulfillment, her outer success, and her calling to make a difference. If you are ready to: Build a business that reflects your soul's purpose Step into financial sovereignty while staying deeply rooted in service Merge feminine leadership, conscious business practices, and philanthropy And become the woman who stops waiting and starts creating the change she longs to see …this episode will light a fire in your spirit. You'll leave with a new perspective on leadership, wealth, and impact — and the clarity to walk your own path as a Philanthropic Femme.

At Harvard's Kennedy School of Government, he studied political science, urban affairs, and the prospects for peace in Central America.Eli began photographing as a freelancer in 1970. His work from El Salvador, Guatemala and other Central American countries attracted the attention of Magnum, he was the first African American photographer, and indeed the first person of colour, to join the agency, becoming a full member in 1988.In the same year, Eli photographed the effects of poverty on America's children for a film documentary called Poorest in the Land of Plenty, narrated by Maya Angelou. He went on to work as a stills photographer for major motion pictures. His video documentary Getting Out was shown at the New York Film Festival in 1993 and honored by the 1996 Black Filmmakers Hall of Fame International Film and Video Competition in the documentary category.Eli's special reports include a long-term study which became his first, highly acclaimed book, Beirut, City of Regrets; the ousting of Baby Doc Duvalier in Haiti (1986); US military action in Panama (1989); the Walled City in Hong Kong; and, perhaps most notably, his documentation of African American experience over more than 20 years.

Today I am continuing on with our story from Episode 139 called “Dreams Come True”. The impact that musical had on our lives, started a whole new avenue of ministry, for our family. Following that episode, were two inspiring conversations, with the producers of the musical “Celebrate His Holiness”. God seemed to be using the creative gifts in our family, as a way to serve the Lord, and others. A songthat we sang  from Psalm 100 says, “Serve the Lord with gladness. Come into his presence with singing.” This verse inJoshua chapter 24, 15, had become our motto; “But as for me and my house, we will serve the Lord.” The way that worked out practically was, “we will serve the Lord with joy through music.“ Besides our trip to the UK, we had been planning for months, for a long visit to see our friends in Guatemala City. This was by invitation from Pepe and his wife Mayda, who were in Munich the year before. Maybe you remember that story from a previous episode.

From BMX tracks to the Iditarod trail, and from Yale Law to global justice reform, Matt Garretson's life is a masterclass in resilience, curiosity, and purpose-driven innovation. In this episode, Jeff Bloomfield sits down with Matt to explore how his unique blend of risk-taking, compassion, and intellectual rigor led him to reshape the legal services sector, build businesses that impact thousands, and embark on extreme adventures that test the limits of human endurance. Whether it's resolving billion-dollar settlements, pioneering AI in the legal industry, or pedaling 1,000 miles across frozen Alaska, Matt's story is proof that the best results come from observing, engaging, adapting, and persevering. His daily formula:  “My guiding mantra each day was that I must be methodical about observing (all data re terrain, weather, gear, etc.), engaging (with the underlying assumptions derived from those observations), adapting (because everything changes constantly when executing in an unpredictable/uncontrolled environment), persevering (having faith/confidence that i have the body, mind and spirit to accomplish the daily goals if i stay methodical about this loop). I broke each day into hour segments meaning for instance i didnt plan for 60 miles or 15 hours each day….i just needed to make it for instance from 9 AM to 10AM…then i can make it to 11 and if I made it to 11 then certainly 12 was possible etc. 18 days later I was in Nome!!!” This isn't just a story about legal innovation or adventure sports — it's a blueprint for high-stakes decision-making in life and business. Matt's “Observe, Engage, Adapt, Persevere” framework, forged in the crucible of both courtroom battles and Arctic winds, is a practical leadership model for anyone navigating uncertainty. Leaders, entrepreneurs, and high-performers will walk away with actionable insights on risk management, building trust in complex negotiations, integrating AI into human-centered processes, and maintaining clarity when the stakes are high and the variables keep changing. Origin shapes destiny — The combination of his father's risk-taking spirit and his mother's intellectual curiosity formed the foundation of Matt's worldview. Unconventional paths have power — Yale undergrad + night law school created a rare blend of elite theory and gritty pragmatism. Faith in action — Matt's theology degree grew out of reconciling the good and harm he saw in organized religion. Neutrality is a business model — Creating fair, transparent systems for complex legal settlements can transform entire industries. AI accelerates trust — Tools like Pattern Data and Jane are reshaping how the legal profession processes and shares information. Adventure as a leadership lab — Extreme endurance events sharpen decision-making and adaptability. Observe, Engage, Adapt, Persevere — A simple yet powerful framework for survival and success. Moisture management matters — Small, counterintuitive habits can make or break long-term success in any high-stakes environment. Find the middle ground — In negotiations, you've likely reached fairness when both sides are slightly unhappy but see the logic. Impact over income — Matt's latest venture in Guatemala proves that business growth and social good can be inseparable. 00:00 – Intro & guest setup 05:35 – Matt's origin story: risk-taking father, intellectual mother 09:00 – Discovering law as a second-phase career 11:55 – Theological studies: reconciling faith and harm 17:28 – The birth of a neutral legal administrator 21:11 – World Trade Center, BP Oil Spill, and mass tort work 27:39 – Truth, accountability, and finding reliable sources 31:44 – AI's role in transforming the legal industry 39:23 – Epic adventures: Great Divide, Baja Divide, Iditarod 45:58 – The Observe–Engage–Adapt–Persevere model 53:48 – Burnbright: blending business, social impact, and job creation

The distance between West Monroe, Louisiana and Guatemala may be measured in miles, but for Abby Wood and her teenage son Gavin, that gap closed into something far more meaningful during their recent mission trip. What began fifteen years ago with a simple $43 monthly commitment to sponsor a child has blossomed into relationships that transcend borders, languages, and cultural differences.When the Woods first connected with Compassion International, they simply wanted to sponsor a child sharing their newborn son's birthday. That initial connection with a Ugandan boy named Xavier has lasted nearly two decades. More recently, they added Guatemalan Ellie to their sponsorship family after their church helped establish a Compassion center in her community.The true magic happened when Abby and Gavin stepped off the bus in Guatemala to an unexpected welcome—community members with phones and even a drone capturing their arrival, children holding welcome banners, and celebratory fireworks lighting their path. The abstract concept of sponsorship suddenly had faces, personalities, and embraces attached to it.Walking into Ellie's home where eight family members live together revealed details no letter could convey. Her father leaves at 4 AM six days a week for a 12-hour factory workday. Her mother rises at 3 AM to prepare his meals. Despite modest surroundings, they proudly displayed their collection of letters from the Woods, kept securely in a locked drawer like precious jewels.Most touching was discovering Ellie's true personality—not the shy girl from photographs, but a playful, competitive spirit who couldn't wait to play games with her American friends. These moments of connection transcended language barriers (requiring both Spanish and Mayan Kekchi translators) and revealed the human bonds at the heart of global ministry.The impact wasn't one-sided. At another home visit, a skeptical father finally approached after observing from a distance. "I just really didn't know this was real," he admitted. "Today I know there's really someone out there who cares about us." His words captured why showing up matters as much as financial support.Ready to make a difference that ripples through generations?

What happens when we take justice into our own hands? Author Ben C. Davies joins Purple Political Breakdown to explore the complex reality of systemic injustice and individual response.In this thought-provoking guest episode, we dive deep into the intersection of politics, justice, and human nature with Ben C. Davies, UK-born author of "And So I Took Their Eye" - a debut collection that examines how people seek justice when institutions fail them. Drawing from his experiences living in Guatemala, the UK, and the United States, Davies offers a nuanced perspective that transcends traditional political boundaries.Key Discussion Points:Why both major political parties - Democrats and Republicans, Labour and Conservative - are failing citizensHow wealth inequality and institutional breakdown drive people to seek personal justiceThe difference between community-based support systems (Scandinavian model) vs. American individualismReal-world examples from Guatemala's "eye for an eye" culture and how it manifests globallyThe role of empathy and storytelling in bridging political dividesWhy current immigration rhetoric and foreign aid cuts reveal our disconnect from human consequencesDavies, who teaches at California College of the Arts and co-runs a Guatemalan writing residency, brings unique insights from someone who's witnessed political systems across multiple continents. His book critiques both left-wing and right-wing institutions while exploring what drives ordinary people to take matters into their own hands when systems fail.This episode aligns perfectly with Purple Political Breakdown's mission - examining where our institutions are failing people without partisan agenda, focusing on the human cost of political polarization and the search for authentic solutions beyond traditional party lines.Perfect for listeners interested in political philosophy, social justice, international perspectives on American politics, and the psychological roots of political behavior.Keywords & SEO TagsPrimary Keywords: political justice, institutional failure, wealth inequality, political polarization, bipartisan critique, social systems, political philosophy, international politics perspectiveSecondary Keywords: Guatemala politics, immigration policy consequences, Scandinavian socialism, American individualism, foreign aid impact, political empathy, systemic injustice, cross-cultural politicsAuthor/Book Keywords: Ben C Davies, And So I Took Their Eye, political fiction, California College Arts, Guatemala writing residency, UK author, political storytellingTopic-Specific Keywords: eye for an eye justice, community support systems, tax policy discussion, political institutions critique, human rights advocacy, cultural political differencesIG: @bendaviesauthorwww.bendaviesauthor.comStandard Resource Links & RecommendationsThe following organizations and platforms represent valuable resources for balanced political discourse and democratic participation: PODCAST NETWORKALIVE Podcast Network - Check out the ALIVE Network where you can catch a lot of great podcasts like my own, led by amazing Black voices.

In this brand new episode of Walk and Roll Live – Disability Stories, hosts Doug Vincent and Addie Rich sit down with Gilmar Arana, a 25-year-old athlete and advocate who was born with spina bifida and hydrocephalus in Guatemala City. At just eight years old, Gilmar moved to the United States and discovered adaptive sports through Rancho Los Amigos. From his early days under Coach Rick Tirambulo to competing at the Division 3 Wheelchair Basketball Nationals with coaches Héctor Duran and Ray Cervantes, Gilmar shares how sports have shaped his resilience, teamwork, and determination. He also talks about his time with the Los Angeles Chargers Wheelchair Football Team, his role as a Spanish interpreter at Rancho Los Amigos, and his current pursuit of an AA degree at Cerritos College—a path made possible by the encouragement of Coach David Rodarte. This episode is a celebration of perseverance, community, and the power of adaptive sports to transform lives. Walk and Roll Live

Today, I'm introducing you to a very special guest: Misty Wilder. Misty is a missionary who, alongside her husband Daniel, has been serving faithfully in Guatemala for the past 20 years. Together, they've raised seven children on the mission field, planted churches, and poured their lives into the people of Chimaltenango and beyond.Misty is a deep thinker, someone who clearly loves God, loves her family, and carries a quiet strength and joy that really shines through. She's thoughtful, joyful, and in our conversation, you'll hear how God has worked in her heart, in her ministry, and in the lives of those around her.Over the years, the Wilders have helped start nine churches, including their main work in Chimaltenango. That church has seen big Sundays with over 500 people in attendance, though most weeks, it's around 150 to 200.One amazing story Misty shared with me after we finished recording was about a young man they reached while he was in a correctional facility. His father had struggled with alcoholism, but for the sake of his son, he started coming to church. His life was completely changed. That young man later married a girl who had come down to help the Wilders, and today, he's pastoring a church in Oklahoma. Isn't that incredible?And just for fun—Misty's favorite food in Guatemala is estofado. It's a saucy, tomato-based dish eaten with rice. It can be made with chicken, beef, or pork, along with plenty of vegetables. It sounds delicious!This episode is honest, full of wisdom, and a real encouragement for anyone in ministry. Or for anyone just trying to follow God faithfully, wherever He leads.So, are you ready to be encouraged and equipped to abide in Christ? Let's get into the heart of today's episode.RESOURCES:One Thing You Can't Do in Heaven  - BookEternity in Their Hearts - BookDaniel and Misty Wilder - Facebook PageTEAM:⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Podcast Facilitator - Mrs Tammy Goddard ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Host - Jennifer Beil⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Social Media Director - Lisa Grubb ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Music Coordinator - Lindsey Osgood ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Resource Promoter - Connie Marrujo⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠FOLLOW US:⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Instagram⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Facebook⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Webpage⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠YouTube⁠

She teaches yoga and vocal activation teacher, singer-songwriter, a hype coach, a true girl's girl, a space-holder for magical retreats, and a devoted student of Ayurveda. On her Instagram, you'll catch her bridging the worlds of eastern philosophy and western science, singing her big little heart out, and throwing that a$$ back as a reminder that you don't need to edit or hide yourself to feel true acceptance.But Chrystee wasn't always this way. Like many women, she once conditioned herself to fit into a smaller, more traditional role—chasing the career, making the money, and then asking, now what? In this episode, she shares her journey of breaking free, leaving corporate life in the States, and fully stepping into her dharma in Guatemala.- From rock bottom to radiant freedom—her journey of turning being in deep pain and suicidal ideation into art and passion.- How leaving corporate sales unlocked her true dharma and purpose.- Embodied practices—twerking, vocal activation, and body wisdom—as tools for liberation.- Bridging health, spirituality, and indigenous traditions to create heaven on earth.Connect with Chrystee:Instagram : @chrysteeeeeSpotify : ChrysteeYoutube: @chrysteeIf you'd like to connect with Stephanie, you can find her here:Instagram-@schoolofwhispers @__steef___ email-schoolofwhispers@gmail.com If you would like to schedule an acupuncture appointment with Stephanie at her current clinic, Balance Point Acupuncture, you can either visit ⁠⁠www.balancepointacu.com⁠ ⁠or call 561-615-4535 to schedule your appointment todayDISCLAIMER: This podcast is presented for educational and exploratory purposes only.

How do you respond in when life gets really tough? Jerry Leachman says to remember that we're just a baby in a basket.What does that mean, "a baby in a basket?" When Moses was just a few months old, Pharoah, the most powerful man in the world, had a hit order on his life. Moses' family put him in a little frail reed basket and set him afloat in the crocodile-infested Nile River.His chances are going down the further this story goes along. And then they watched him—talk about a heartbreaking scene.I think most of you know how this story goes along. The daughter of Pharaoh finds Moses, and then they hire Moses' family back. So, now they're taking care of their own baby again, and they're getting a paycheck to do it.Pharaoh had a plan for Moses to annihilate him, but God had another plan for Moses. He was going to be God's deliverer. That little baby was indestructible until God was through with him.As long as God has a purpose for us to be here, your magnificent obsession should be not to sit here and have fun, not to sit here on earth and try to be the man. You need to find out why God put you here and be about that and fulfill your destiny.Be part of the solution, not the problem—be part of the answer. We don't want God to remove His Holy Spirit. And if there's anything in your life this morning, only you would know, that grieves the Holy Spirit, get it out. That's your call.Jerry Leachman of ⁠⁠Leachman Ministries⁠⁠ is a favorite speaker at The Center's events. Along with being an associate Chaplain in The NFL for many years, Jerry has done ministry in Guatemala, Scotland, Russia, Europe and Africa as well as all over the U.S. He and his wife Holly have been on Young Life Staff and continue to be involved with Young Life here and also internationally.

David Waldman opens up the Friday Firehose! Donald K. Trump will sign an order renaming small condoms to “large”. Also, war is “peace” and Pete Hegseth and Ronny Jackon are “sober”. Our friends are becoming our enemies, and our enemies are... still our enemies, but becoming each other's friends. Russia still likes appreciates enjoys us, though. So much for moving jobs back to the US, as construction of a Hyundai plant was halted when ICEISIS apprehended 500 workers. Children were almost kidnapped to Guatemala, but Judge Sparkle Sooknanan said NO at 4 AM Sunday Labor Day morning. Folks around the White House sure have been kicking themselves about the Abrego Garcia case, especially in the way they allowed Garcia to continue to exist. This oversight has been rectified for all future cases, beginning with 11 never-to-be-interviewed guys in a little skiff off the coast of Venezuela. Navy SEALs encountered a bunch of North Korean witnesses in 2019, and you don't see Senators or the Times parading them around, do you? ICEISIS is adding the DSS. Stephen Miller gets his own SS but has yet to receive one of those cool double-breasted leather overcoats. You'd think that Miller and Generalissimo Trump could afford to start wearing something more media friendly to be seen on their friendly media.  Posse Comitatus might bring about POTUS interruptus. Anyone who has ever taken more than one from the “Take One” bowl will face consequences in this administration. Almost anyone. None of the 15 Epstein binder-carrying influencers showed up to support the victims yesterday. Marjorie Taylor Greene will be happy to read the Epstein list in Congress as she knows that only those people that she wants to uncover will be contained in the list that she will be reading. Arrogant science-denying paranoid kook anti-vaxxing shrivel-pizzle RFK Jr. aggravated the entire Senate yesterday. The Trump administration is now stealing ideas from South Park, while Trump poaches Fox News of valuable racist talent. Meanwhile, an incredibly lifelike Melania Trump welcomed our new robot overlords.

What if the Bible isn't something you read—but something you hear, memorize, and perform? In this groundbreaking episode, Dr. Fausto Liriano shares his work translating the Bible into indigenous languages without writing it down. Through oral Bible translation projects in Guatemala, Mexico, and the Philippines, Dr. Liriano helps communities internalize Scripture in their own languages—through performance, storytelling, and memorization. He explains how this work challenges not only Western assumptions about literacy and theology, but also confronts colonial patterns in missionary work, translation philosophy, and even what counts as “canonical” Scripture. The episode explores how indigenous languages often mirror Hebrew's poetic ambiguity more than Spanish or English do, why repetition and redundancy are theological tools, and how people with no formal education are memorizing and performing hours of biblical material with precision and reverence. Dr. Liriano also reflects on the need for contextual theology in Latin America—one that isn't imported from the North, but developed by the people, for the people. He calls for a theology of corruption, of wholeness, and of embodied participation in God's word.

This week, Scott sat down with his Lawfare colleagues Anna Bower, Tyler McBrien, and Peter Harrell to talk through the week's big national security news stories, including:“Faginomics.” With the recent announcement that the U.S. government would be taking a 10% stake in the company Intel, the Trump administration has ushered in a new era of state-guided industrial policy, fueled by concerns of major power competition, particularly around the race to AI. How does this new policy intersect with its other novel economic priorities, such as the imposition of tariffs?

Anderson, Anna Bower, and Lawfare Public Service Fellow Loren Voss to discuss Sunday's emergency hearing in L.G.M.L. et al. v. Kristi Noem—in which Judge Sparkle Sooknanan blocked the Trump administration's plans to send unaccompanied migrant children to Guatemala—Judge Charles Breyer's ruling in Newsom v. Trump which found that President Trump's use of the National Guard and U.S. Marines in Los Angeles violated the Posse Comitatus Act, and the Federal Circuit Court of Appeals ruling striking down Trump's tariffs on International Emergency Economic Powers Act grounds.To receive ad-free podcasts, become a Lawfare Material Supporter at www.patreon.com/lawfare.

This week, Scott sat down with his Lawfare colleagues Anna Bower, Tyler McBrien, and Peter Harrell to talk through the week's big national security news stories, including:“Faginomics.” With the recent announcement that the U.S. government would be taking a 10% stake in the company Intel, the Trump administration has ushered in a new era of state-guided industrial policy, fueled by concerns of major power competition, particularly around the race to AI. How does this new policy intersect with its other novel economic priorities, such as the imposition of tariffs? And how legally viable is it, given present (and potentially future) legal challenges?“Ménage à Trois.” On the margins of the recent meeting of the China- and Russia-led Shanghai Cooperation Organisation, Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi made a point of warmly (and very publicly) embracing Russian President Vladimir Putin and Chinese President Xi Jinping—a move many have taken as a clear shot across the bow at the Trump administration, which has been in heated economic negotiations with India over tariffs and trade relations.

Donate (no account necessary) | Subscribe (account required) Join Bryan Dean Wright, former CIA Operations Officer, as he dives into today's top stories shaping America and the world. In this episode of The Wright Report, we go around the globe for breaking updates on Trump's strike in Venezuela, Mexico's trade and cartel challenges, Canada's housing lesson, Europe's political revolt, the free speech crisis in the UK, and China's bid to reshape global power. From warships in the Caribbean to propaganda in Tiananmen Square, today's brief delivers the facts you need to navigate a rapidly changing world.   Trump Authorizes Strike on Venezuelan Drug Boat: The U.S. military sank a Tren de Aragua vessel, killing 11 narco-terrorists. Trump warned, “Please let this serve as notice to anybody even thinking about bringing drugs into the United States of America. BEWARE!” With warships and Marines stationed nearby, speculation grows that regime change could be on the table, despite White House denials.   Secretary Rubio in Mexico for Trade, Cartels, and Screwworms: President Sheinbaum raises tariffs on China under Trump's pressure, aligning with a “Fortress North America” strategy. Poverty in Mexico drops by 13 million, but reports credit Trump's 2018 labor reforms. Meanwhile, cartel boss El Mayo admitted decades of bribing Mexican politicians, and ranchers accuse Sheinbaum of letting screwworm-infested cattle in from Guatemala.   Canada's Immigration Cuts Ease Housing Costs: Bloomberg reports that stricter immigration policies have cooled Canada's housing crisis. Bryan draws a parallel: if the U.S. removed 15 to 30 million illegals, millions of homes would free up for Americans.   Europe Turns Right Amid Free Speech Crackdowns: Conservative parties surge in Germany, France, Italy, and the UK. Yet in Britain, a comedian was arrested for posts about transgender issues, joining thousands jailed yearly for “offensive” speech. VP JD Vance warned such laws amount to “civilizational suicide.”   Trump, Europe, and Ukraine's Stalemate: Trump expressed disappointment in Putin and frustration with Europe's refusal to send troops, saying peace is delayed by “maximalist demands.” European leaders hesitate, offering only weapons and logistics while rejecting boots on the ground.   China Hosts BRICS and Flaunts Military Might: Xi Jinping told India's Modi, “The globe today is swept by a once-in-a-century transformation,” signaling closer ties between Beijing and New Delhi. At a Tiananmen Square parade, Xi showcased drones and weapons while erasing U.S. contributions in WWII. Trump hit back online: “Please give my warmest regards to Vladimir Putin and Kim Jong Un as you conspire against The United States of America.” Bryan warns Xi's rise represents a “new Dark Age” for humanity if unchecked.   "And you shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free." - John 8:32     Keywords: Trump Venezuela drug boat strike, Tren de Aragua narco-terrorists, Marco Rubio Mexico City talks, Mexico tariffs on China, Mexican poverty drop Trump labor reforms, El Mayo cartel bribes, screwworm outbreak Guatemala cattle, Canada immigration housing shortage, Europe populist conservative surge, UK comedian arrested free speech, JD Vance civilizational suicide UK, Trump Europe Ukraine peace talks, Xi Jinping BRICS Modi meeting, China Tiananmen military parade, Trump Xi Putin Kim social media post

Jen Psaki shares Donald Trump's seemingly self-contradicting answer to a question about internet rumors that he had been out of the public eye for several days because he had died. But Trump has plenty of other reasons to want to hide from the American public.Jen Psaki shows how Donald Trump's unpopular and illegal agenda is suffering one legal loss after another in court challenges, and talks with Norm Eisen, executive chair of the Democracy Defenders Fund, and Skye Perryman, president and CEO of Democracy Forward, about the effectiveness of keeping Trump's feet to the legal fire.And Jacob Soboroff delivers a powerful report about an 18-year-old honors student deported to Guatemala where she is threatened by the exact type of gangs that Donald Trump claims to be fighting with his indiscriminate deportation policy. 

Meet my friends, Clay Travis and Buck Sexton! If you love Verdict, the Clay Travis and Buck Sexton Show might also be in your audio wheelhouse. Politics, news analysis, and some pop culture and comedy thrown in too. Here’s a sample episode recapping four Tuesday takeaways. Give the guys a listen and then follow and subscribe wherever you get your podcasts. Code Switching Clay and Buck dive into the political and cultural landscape shaping the first fall of the Trump 2.0 presidency, highlighting the ongoing resistance from federal judges against the administration’s policies. The hosts criticize what they describe as partisan judicial activism, particularly rulings that attempt to block President Trump’s constitutional authority—such as deploying the National Guard in Los Angeles during immigration-related unrest. They emphasize how these decisions are often overturned by higher courts, including the Supreme Court, reinforcing Trump’s legal standing. The show also covers a controversial case involving 76 unaccompanied Guatemalan children who were blocked from being reunited with their families in Guatemala by a federal judge. Clay and Buck frame this as an example of how judicial overreach is obstructing humanitarian efforts and immigration reform under Trump 2.0. Call in the Guard! A deep dive into the escalating crisis of urban crime in America, with a sharp focus on cities like Chicago, Washington D.C., and Memphis. They highlight the Trump administration’s proactive stance on law and order, praising President Trump’s efforts to reduce violent crime and carjackings while exposing the political resistance from Democrat leaders who, they argue, are failing to protect their constituents. The conversation centers around the staggering statistic that 50 people were shot in Chicago over Labor Day weekend, prompting Clay and Buck to question why Democratic officials like Mayor Brandon Johnson oppose federal assistance, including National Guard deployment, to restore safety. They contrast Johnson’s slogan-heavy rhetoric with more pragmatic voices like Morning Joe’s Joe Scarborough, who surprisingly called for bipartisan cooperation with Trump to address crime in Illinois. The hosts also revisit the controversial remarks of Los Angeles Mayor Karen Bass, who suggested that increased policing would lead to too many arrests of black and brown individuals. Clay and Buck challenge this logic, emphasizing that the real victims of unchecked crime are often minorities living in high-crime neighborhoods. They argue that the true measure of safety is whether women and children can walk or jog freely in their communities without fear. Commie Mamdani The New York City mayoral race, scrutinizing the candidacy of Zohran Mamdani, a self-described democratic socialist. They dissect the New York Times’ attempt to downplay his ideology and warn that his proposed policies—like government-run grocery stores—could devastate the city’s economy and infrastructure. The hosts debate whether Mamdani is a true ideologue or simply an inexperienced politician who may struggle to implement his radical agenda. The segment also includes reflections on past NYC mayors like Rudy Giuliani, Michael Bloomberg, and Bill de Blasio, comparing their leadership styles and impact on crime. Clay and Buck argue that Bloomberg’s business acumen and Giuliani’s law enforcement background made them effective leaders, while de Blasio’s progressive policies contributed to the city’s decline. Doesn't Have to be This Way Clay and Buck scrutinize Chicago’s violent crime epidemic, where Governor JB Pritzker dodges questions about the city’s safety following a weekend of 54 shootings and 7 deaths. Clay and Buck argue that President Trump’s deployment of the National Guard in Washington D.C. has proven effective, and they challenge Democrats to explain their resistance to similar measures in cities like Memphis, St. Louis, and New Orleans. The hosts dissect Mayor Brandon Johnson’s inflammatory rhetoric, including his call for citizens to “defend the land” against Trump’s law enforcement efforts. Clay and Buck criticize this as dangerous and historically inaccurate, noting that Chicago was not built by slaves or indigenous people, and that invoking such narratives undermines real solutions to crime. They emphasize the psychological deterrent effect of visible law enforcement and the success of plainclothes policing units in cities like New York. The conversation shifts to the broader political implications of Trump’s crime-fighting strategy, highlighting how Democrats are increasingly boxed into defending the indefensible. Clay and Buck argue that Trump’s actions are saving lives, even if those lives can’t be individually identified, and they call out the hypocrisy of Democrats who welcomed National Guard troops during COVID but now oppose them for public safety.

The Trump administration is preparing a major Immigration and Customs Enforcement operation in Chicago, and it may come as soon as this week. The details have been few and far between, but it would likely increase the number of ICE and Border Patrol agents in the city significantly. According to “border czar” Tom Homan, the White House is even considering taking over a Naval base north of Chicago to hold the “large contingent” of federal agents. Chicago, unsurprisingly, has long been in the crosshairs of President Donald Trump's threats to federally invade cities as part of his so-called crackdown on crime. And Chicago Mayor Brandon Johnson is not having it. On Saturday, he signed an executive order instructing local police not to cooperate with troops or federal agents if the President's threats come to fruition. For more on the impact that federal arrests have on federal courts, we spoke with Jessica Brand, a lawyer and Executive Director of Wren Collective, a non-profit aimed at criminal justice reform and prosecutorial power.And in headlines: Congress is back in session, a federal judge blocks the Trump administration from deporting hundreds of migrant children to Guatemala, and more than 800 demonstrations take place across the country on Labor Day to protest billionaires taking over the government.Show Notes:Learn more about The Wren CollectiveCall 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
