You might mistake a recent video released by the Department of Homeland Security for an action movie trailer. It shows Border Patrol agents in military fatigues entering an apartment building in South Shore and arresting people alleged to be connected to Tren de Aragua, a Venezuelan gang. Reporting from WBEZ, the Chicago Sun-Times and other outlets confirm that U.S. citizens were detained for hours, some of them in handcuffs and zip ties. None of that was shown. In the Loop talks to Jim Warren with NewsGuard and security affairs expert Robert Pape of UChicago about whether or not the federal government's videos of immigration raids – such as the one in South Shore – amount to propaganda about Chicago crime and immigrants.

Amy is a seasoned communications leader passionate about using market insights to shape strategy and strengthen engagement worldwide.Five things you'll learn from this episode:1. How to leverage market insights to shape and guide PR strategy2. The balance of art, science, and passion in effective strategic planning3. Practical ways communicators can advocate for audiences at the strategy table4. How messaging and strategy must stay in lockstep to maintain credibility and consistency across audiences5. How brand perception gaps create opportunities for stronger audience engagement Quotables“The human brain always absorbs things best in threes. And communications know if you've got 15 priorities, you have no priorities. When setting priorities, it has to be a clear way to say yes and to say no. If it doesn't give you the ability to say no, then it's not really helping you set a strategy.” — Amy Dunham“You can't have good communication or public relations strategy without messaging. They're in lockstep together.” — @JasonMudd9“To really stand out in PR, whatever you're doing, is to make sure you're saying things that are provocative, contrary, and have a unique point of view from what everybody else is saying because otherwise, you're just going to blend in and not stand out.” — @JasonMudd9“It's not a conversation about ‘I know better' versus ‘you know better.' It's much more about ‘Here's what the data indicates, and now here's the flexibility to be able to use it in the way that works best in your market.'” — Amy Dunham“It's really through the lens of ‘How can I add value in a way to enable their work?' rather than to direct how things should get done.” — Amy DunhamIf you enjoyed this episode, please take a moment to share it with a colleague or friend.

This Day in Legal History: Earl Warren AppointedOn October 2, 1953, President Dwight D. Eisenhower appointed Earl Warren as the 14th Chief Justice of the United States, setting in motion one of the most transformative periods in Supreme Court history. Warren, who had previously served as Governor of California and was the Republican nominee for Vice President in 1948, was a surprise choice—appointed during a recess of the Senate following the death of Chief Justice Fred Vinson. Though Eisenhower reportedly later regretted the decision, Warren would go on to lead a Court that dramatically expanded civil rights, civil liberties, and judicial power.Under Warren's leadership, the Court issued a series of landmark decisions, beginning with Brown v. Board of Educationin 1954, which declared racial segregation in public schools unconstitutional. The Warren Court also established the principle of “one person, one vote” in legislative apportionment, expanded the rights of criminal defendants in cases like Gideon v. Wainwright and Miranda v. Arizona, and reinforced the wall between church and state. Warren was known for his ability to forge consensus among justices, often securing unanimous decisions in major cases to strengthen the Court's moral authority.His tenure marked a fundamental shift in constitutional interpretation, emphasizing equality, due process, and the role of the judiciary in correcting social injustices. While praised by many for championing individual rights and the rule of law, the Warren Court also faced significant criticism from those who viewed its decisions as judicial activism. Warren retired in 1969, but the legal legacy of his Court continues to shape American law and society.New York Attorney General Letitia James filed a lawsuit and an emergency motion against U.S. Secretary of Homeland Security Kristi Noem and the Department of Homeland Security (DHS), accusing them of unlawfully withholding nearly $34 million in funding for New York's Metropolitan Transportation Authority (MTA). The MTA oversees subway, bus, and commuter rail systems across New York City and surrounding areas. James filed the suit in the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York, seeking a temporary restraining order to preserve the funds while the legal case proceeds.According to James, DHS abruptly reduced the funding allocation from nearly $34 million to zero, a move she described as unlawful and politically motivated. Her office emphasized that the emergency request does not seek immediate disbursement, but rather aims to prevent the funds from being lost while the court reviews the matter. She warned that the funding freeze could endanger the safety of millions of transit riders in New York.This legal action comes amid broader concerns raised by the U.S. Transportation Department, which recently threatened to withhold 25% of MTA's federal transit funding unless improvements are made to track worker safety protocols. DHS did not provide an immediate response to requests for comment.New York AG James sues Homeland Security for nearly $34 million over transit funding freeze | ReutersApple and OpenAI asked a U.S. judge to dismiss a lawsuit brought by Elon Musk's AI company, xAI, over claims that their partnership harms competition. xAI's suit, filed in August, seeks billions in damages and argues that Apple's integration of ChatGPT into its devices gives OpenAI an unfair advantage while sidelining rival products like Musk's Grok chatbot. Apple and OpenAI countered that their deal is not exclusive and that Apple plans to work with other generative AI providers.Apple's lawyers emphasized the openness of the agreement, asserting that the arrangement does not prevent competition or violate antitrust laws. In a separate filing, OpenAI described Musk's legal actions as part of a broader “campaign of lawfare” against the company, referencing previous lawsuits Musk has filed, including one challenging OpenAI's shift from nonprofit to for-profit status.OpenAI further argued that xAI had not demonstrated concrete harm or the kind of anticompetitive behavior that antitrust law is designed to prevent. Musk, who co-founded OpenAI in 2015 before departing, has accused the company and CEO Sam Altman of straying from its original nonprofit mission.Apple, OpenAI ask US judge to dismiss Musk's suit over competition claims | ReutersLawyers representing Prince Harry and other public figures accused the Daily Mail publisher, Associated Newspapers (ANL), of also targeting Prince William and Princess Kate in an ongoing privacy lawsuit. The new allegations, presented in filings at London's High Court, suggest that confidential details about William's 21st birthday were obtained through “blagging”—a deceptive tactic to access private information. Kate was allegedly targeted by a private investigator working for a Mail journalist.Prince Harry and six others, including Elton John and his husband David Furnish, are suing ANL for alleged privacy violations dating back 30 years. The lawsuit accuses ANL of unlawful activities such as voicemail hacking, obtaining medical records by deception, and even burglary. ANL has denied the claims and called them baseless and exaggerated. A trial is scheduled for early 2026.The publisher pushed back in court, arguing that the claimants failed to connect the alleged misconduct to specific journalists or investigators. They also sought to exclude findings from earlier cases against other newspaper publishers like News Group Newspapers and the Daily Mirror. ANL accused two claimants, Sadie Frost and Simon Hughes, of manipulating the timing of story publications to evade a statute of limitations—though the court had previously ruled in the claimants' favor on that issue.Prince Harry attended the hearing remotely, while several other claimants were present in court. This lawsuit marks the first time ANL has been directly implicated in the phone-hacking scandal that has plagued British tabloids for nearly two decades.Daily Mail publisher asks UK court to limit Prince Harry lawsuit | Reuters This is a public episode.

The federal government shut down today after lawmakers failed to reach an agreement on a stop-gap spending measure. Senate Democrats blocked a procedural vote to reconsider a bill that would have temporarily reopened the government. The lapse in funding affects millions of federal workers as the debate over government spending continues.Vice President JD Vance, in a surprise appearance at the White House briefing today, called on moderate Democrats to join Republicans in voting to keep the government open. He also said he doesn't believe the shutdown will last long. Meanwhile, the Department of Homeland Security says its operations will continue despite the funding lapse.The Supreme Court today deferred the Trump administration's request to overturn an injunction blocking President Trump's effort to fire Federal Reserve Governor Lisa Cook. Cook will remain in office until at least January 2026.

Episode 207 of the What are We Doing Podcast is here and it's a loaded one. Iron Hill Brewery shut down every single location overnight, blindsiding customers, employees, and anyone left holding a gift card. One of the East Coast's staple brewpubs is gone, and I share my own run-ins with Iron Hill and why it feels like every shuttered restaurant around here eventually turns into a family diner serving $12 pancakes.From there, we jump into Trump's latest attempt at medical science. The president stood on stage with Dr. Oz and RFK Jr. and told the country that pregnant women taking Tylenol are the cause of autism. Zero evidence. No studies. Nothing but bad improv and mispronounced words. Tylenol's maker, doctors, and decades of research all came back swinging, but the fact that this nonsense even made it into an official announcement is wild.And then TikTok. After years of deadlines and extensions, Trump signed the order to “save TikTok” by letting Oracle and a group of American investors lease the algorithm from ByteDance for $14 billion. On paper it keeps TikTok alive in the US, but let's be honest — how long before the algorithm turns into Facebook's endless stream of ads, political fluff, and AI sludge? I break down why this might be the beginning of the end for TikTok as we know it.On top of that, the Department of Homeland Security is busy making Pokémon-themed ICE raid videos, Jimmy Kimmel somehow turned his suspension into the biggest ratings jump of his career, Jimmy Fallon is quietly stacking his defenses with Taylor Swift appearances and spin-off shows, Meta's new AI glasses can't even walk you through a brownie recipe, and it's officially Fat Bear Week. I've got money on Bear 909 and if he loses, I'm done.This is the What are We Doing Podcast. Episode 207 is chaos from start to finish, and that's exactly how we like it.
Kristi Noem is the controversial Secretary of Homeland Security. A staunch MAGA loyalist, she's in charge of ICE detention facilities, including one in Dallas, Texas, that was attacked this week.As the face of the Trump administration's intensified raids and arrests by US Immigration and Enforcement (ICE) agents, Kristi Noem has become a lightening rod in America, both loved and hated for her combative approach and her many viral media moments - some call her the 'ICE Barbie'.A former South Dakota Snow Queen winner, she's risen fast from her cowgirl roots. There's even talk of a run for president in 2028.Presenter: Mark Coles Producer: Lucy Proctor, Ben Crighton and Natasha Fernandes Researchers: Alex Loftus and Adriana Urbano Production coordinators: Sabine Schereck and Maria Ogundele Editor: Justine Lang Sound Engineer: Neil Churchill
“Antifa is a militarist, anarchist enterprise that explicitly calls for the overthrow of the United States Government, law enforcement authorities, and our system of law,” says a new executive order from President Trump. “Because of the aforementioned pattern of political violence designed to suppress lawful political activity and obstruct the rule of law, I hereby designate Antifa as a “domestic terrorist organization.” Tyler Fischer is a comedian, actor, and viral content creator with over 200 million views.

It's Friday, September 26th, 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 Adam McManus Chinese Communist court upholds prison sentence of 10 Christians On September 11, a court in the Inner Mongolian region of North China upheld a ruling that sentenced 10 Christians to prison for distributing legally published Bibles, asserting that their actions equated to an illegal business operation, reports International Christian Concern. The believers were arrested back in 2021 for purchasing legally published Bibles and reselling them at a significantly lower price as a means of evangelism. Although the Bibles were published legally, the court deemed the distribution of them illegal because the house church that the distributors belonged to was not officially registered with the Communists. Additionally, the church refused to join the government-controlled Three-Self Patriotic Movement church. Trump now wants Russia to return all captured Ukraine territory After campaigning on ending the Russia-Ukraine war, President Donald Trump had repeatedly stated any negotiations to end the war will likely include Ukraine ceding captured territory to Russia, reports American Family Radio News. However, there's now been an about-face, a big one, that sounds like Trump now supports a military counter-offensive by Ukraine. This week, President Trump stated that Ukraine, with help from NATO and the European Union, can retake all territory it has lost to Russia and restore Ukraine to its “original form.” Russian President Vladimir Putin has ignored Trump's efforts to bring peace to the region even after face-to-face talks in Alaska earlier this summer. Mark Montgomery, a former rear admiral, believes that Putin has embarrassed and irritated Trump. Listen to this soundbite from Washington Watch with Tony Perkins. MONTGOMERY: “President Trump was disrespected by President Putin. After every meeting, Putin would go back to Russia and would immediately engage in significant hypersonic missile strikes on civilian personnel in Ukraine, and as well as engaging in military kinetic actions along the front line, ignoring the president's request for Vladimir to stop, ignoring the president's request to come to the negotiating table. “I think President Trump gave President Putin all the wiggle room he could. And then he had enough.” Former FBI Director James Comey indicted on federal charges Federal prosecutors on Thursday announced they had won an indictment of former FBI Director James Comey in federal courts, reports The Epoch Times. Comey was indicted by a grand jury in the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Virginia on charges of making a false statement and obstruction in a criminal case. In a post on X, Attorney General Pam Bondi wrote, “No one is above the law. Today's indictment reflects this Department of Justice's commitment to holding those who abuse positions of power accountable for misleading the American people. We will follow the facts in this case.” Panic seizes Pentagon over Hegseth's meeting of all generals Secretary of War Pete Hegseth has ordered all top U.S. military commanders, worldwide, to convene at the Quantico, Virginia Marine Corps Base next week for a no-notice meeting with no published agenda. To call this unprecedented might be an understatement. The order covers about 800 general officers and admirals, and each of the attendees is directed to bring their senior enlisted adviser with them, reports RedState.com. It's also very likely that Hegseth will want to discuss the epidemic of non-compliance and malicious compliance wreaking havoc on the policies he and his team are attempting to put into place. For instance, trans members of the military are still being promoted even though they have been ordered discharged. DEI training continues despite Hegseth's order banning such nonsense. The Judge Advocate General Corps, the stronghold of everything leftist in all services, survived an early decapitation attack and roared back more woke and more disloyal and vindictive than ever. They openly discuss how to circumvent Department of War directives and frequently refer to their commanders who are following lawful orders from the Secretary of War as "nazis" and "war criminals." Man who shot at ICE Dallas facility sought to bring terror The 29-year-old man, Joshua Jahn, who opened fire on a Dallas Immigration and Customs Enforcement facility from a nearby roof on September 24th left behind handwritten notes at his home in Oklahoma that shared a motive for his attack – to terrorize ICE employees, reports Fox4News.com. He killed one detainee, and injured two other detainees before taking his own life. According to FBI Director Kash Patel, Jahn downloaded a document titled "Dallas County Office of Homeland Security & Emergency Management," which contained a list of Department of Homeland Security facilities. He also conducted multiple searches of ballistics and the "Charlie Kirk Shot Video" between September 23 and September 24. Jahn allegedly left handwritten notes behind that read in part, "Hopefully, this will give ICE agents real terror, to think, ‘Is there a sniper with [armor piercing] rounds on that roof?'" At a press conference, FBI agent-in-charge Joseph Rothrock said, "Jahn specifically intended to kill ICE agents. He fired at transport vehicles carrying ICE personnel, federal agents, and detainees. He also fired multiple shots into the windows of the office building, where numerous ICE employees do their jobs every day." The Department of Homeland Security is also increasing security at all ICE facilities across America. Christian leader Voddie Baucham died at 56 And finally, Voddie Baucham, an American pastor, author, and educator, died yesterday at the age of 56. TimesNowNews.com reports that Baucham had dealt with serious health issues in the past. In February 2021, he experienced “full-blown heart failure.” The following month, he underwent successful heart surgery. Later, doctors found another blockage, which led to a quadruple bypass surgery. On Facebook, his ministry wrote, “We are saddened to inform friends that our dear brother, Voddie Baucham, Jr., has left the land of the dying and entered the land of the living. Earlier today, after suffering an emergency medical incident, he entered into his rest and the immediate presence of the Savior whom he loved, trusted, and served since he was converted as a college student. Please pray for Bridget, their [nine] children, and [three] grandchildren.” Indeed, I urge you to send a sympathy card to Bridget Baucham, c/o Voddie Baucham Ministries,1020 S. Ferdon, Crestview, FL 32536. Voddie served for nine years as Dean of Theology at African Christian University in Lusaka, Zambia and was the Founding President of Founders Seminary in Cape Coral, Florida. Known for his passionate preaching, teachings on faith, and books on Christian living, Baucham left a deep mark on the Evangelical community. His books included Family Driven Faith: Doing What It Takes to Raise Sons and Daughters Who Walk with God, Family Shepherds: Calling and Equipping Men to Lead Their Homes, and Fault Lines: The Social Justice Movement and Evangelicalism's Looming Catastrophe. Listen to Voddie Baucham explain how Ephesians 6:1 has been turned upside down by the world. BAUCHAM: “Children, obey your parents in the Lord, for this is right. We've turned this on its head. “First of all, your children are not yours. ‘Children, obey the state, for this is right.' We've even moved from that. “'Children obey your feelings, for this is right.' And then on top of that. We say, ‘Parents, obey your children's feelings, for this is right.' So, if Johnny comes to you and says that Johnny is now Susie, it is your job not to instruct Johnny that he's not Susie, but to instruct Susie that you affirm her as Susie. That's your job. “Your job is to obey, to submit to what it is that your child says that he or she is. Sounds like the same twisted logic of the evangelical feminist.” Psalm 116:15 says, “Precious in the sight of the Lord is the death of His saints.” Watch Voddie's last talk in which he addressed Charlie Kirk's death at New St. Andrews College.

THIS WEEK: We have a loaded show with big news on Nintendo of America President Doug Bowser's Retirement announcement, a rundown of announcements from PlayStation: State of Play, including the game Marvel fans have been waiting for, and announcements from the RGG summit, and we look at how Pokémon has been the latest victim of a bad PR stunt made by Homeland Security and more.
In this episode of "Normal World," Dave Landau, 1/4 Black Garrett, and Angela kick things off with unusual headlines, from a nun in Ohio celebrating her 105th birthday on the golf course to a Texas man rescuing a newborn abandoned in a dumpster. The crew then reacts to a bizarre Homeland Security video that feels more like a Saturday morning cartoon than a government warning, before joking their way through fashion trends, forgotten shows, and the curious careers of Billy Zane, Bruce Campbell, and Alec Baldwin. The conversation shifts to Sean Penn's history of fights, Jude Law's awkward defense at the Oscars, and the infamous Will Smith slap. From there, they reminisce about '90s sitcoms, the odd rise and fall of TV formats, and the cultural status of pinky rings, Gucci loafers, and Louis Vuitton luggage. International politics enter the mix with Britain's recognition of Palestine and the spectacle of protest culture, which the hosts approach with sharp skepticism. Later, they highlight Corey Feldman's run on Dancing with the Stars, his Michael Jackson-inspired choreography, and his enduring pop culture mystique. The panel then examines Donald Trump and RFK Jr.'s warnings about Tylenol, questions surrounding autism, and the unintended consequences of health debates. The show closes with Gary Busey's probation for misconduct at a convention, his unpredictable career from Buddy Holly to Pet Judge, and a final detour into the surprising evolution of Anthony Michael Hall.

President Donald Trump welcomed Turkish President Tayyip Erdogan at the White House on Thursday for talks over sanctions and the wars in Ukraine and Gaza. This marks Erdogan's first visit to the White House in about six years.FBI Director Kash Patel gave more details on Thursday about the suspected shooter at a dallas ICE facility. "The perp downloaded a document titled "Dallas County Office of Homeland Security & Emergency Management" containing a list of DHS facilities," Patel wrote, adding, "Between 8/19-8/24, he searched apps that tracked the presence of ICE agents."
Tylenol (acetaminophen) may increase the risk of autism in children if taken while a mother is pregnant. If only there was a post from, say, eight or nine years ago that might be damning in some way. There is, isn't there? Welp. Crowder called it. The Department of Homeland Security is back again with another video. Let's watch. Jimmy Kimmel is back. So. There's that. President Donald Trump spoke to the UN and they're probably still recovering from all those sick burns. The media jumped in to factcheck Trump which means it's time to fact check the factcheckers.GUEST: Josh FirestineLink to today's sources: https://www.louderwithcrowder.com/sources-september-24-2025Buy the OG Mug Club Mug on Crowder Shop now! https://crowdershop.com/products/og-mug-club-mugLet my sponsor American Financing help you regain control of your finances.

Over the weekend, California became the first state to officially ban law enforcement officers from wearing face masks while conducting operations. By signing this law, California Governor Gavin Newsom is resisting some of President Trump's federal actions in his state, as the law applies to federal immigration agents. According to the Department of Homeland Security, assaults on federal agents have risen by 1000% over the last few months. Some Americans fear this will worsen when California's new law takes effect in January 2026. Texas Republican Rep. Pat Fallon joins the Rundown to discuss the dangers of unmasking federal agents, the Trump administration's federal crime crackdown, and whether it has been effective in Washington, D.C.There are only six weeks left until Americans head back to the polls to vote in some high-profile state and local elections. Early voting has already kicked off in Virginia's gubernatorial election, and the candidates hoping to be New Jersey's next governor recently clashed in their first debate. Lee Carter, pollster, and president of Maslansky and Partners, joins the Rundown to discuss this November's key races, what their outcomes could reveal about the 2026 midterms, and whether Charlie Kirk's legacy could ultimately impact future elections.

On Friday, President Donald Trump signed a proclamation adding new requirements for H-1B visas, which grant temporary work authorization to noncitizens in specialty occupations. The new rules compel new applicants to pay $100,000 to apply for the visa (with exceptions granted by the secretary of Homeland Security) and directs the secretary of State to ensure compliance with the new regulations. The $100,000 fee will begin to apply at the start of the next H-1B lottery cycle in March 2026.A new opportunity to engage with us.Do you want to have a say in what we cover, ask questions to be answered in the newsletter, and get the inside scoop on Tangle events?

In this episode, guest host Ben Whedon sits down with Deputy Assistant Secretary Tricia McLaughlin from the Department of Homeland Security to discuss the current state of immigration enforcement and deportation efforts under the Trump administration. Tricia shares insights on the significant increase in deportations, the role of self-deportation, and the ongoing efforts to expand ICE's workforce. We also delve into the controversial 287G partnerships with local law enforcement and the implications of temporary protected status revocations. Also, Ben welcomes back Sarah Stock from Rift TV to discuss the recent tragic events and their implications for the conservative movement. Together with host Ben, they explore the reactions from both the administration and the public, the challenges faced by conservatives in today's climate, and the growing concerns about violence and societal trust.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
