In this Friday Headline Brief of The Wright Report, Bryan covers China's interference in the New York City mayoral race, the stalled government funding battle in Washington, new data showing a resilient U.S. economy, dangerous foreign truck drivers on American roads, and spy games unfolding in Silicon Valley.   China Meddles in the NYC Mayoral Race: The Chinese Communist Party is boosting socialist candidate Zohran Mamdani on TikTok while suppressing content from rival Andrew Cuomo. Bryan calls it “bonkers” that America still allows a Chinese propaganda platform to shape its elections and urges Congress to shut it down immediately.   Democrats Block Government Funding Again: The Senate has now voted twelve times to reopen the government, and twelve times Democrats have said no — rejecting a bill to pay essential workers unless new health subsidies are included. Bryan says, “They're holding America's workers hostage for political gain.”   U.S. Economy Beats Expectations: Manufacturing activity rose for the fourth straight month, and Trump's tariffs show no inflationary impact. Mortgage rates dropped to 6.19%, their lowest of the year, while consumer spending remains strong among wealthier households. Bryan warns, however, that working-class families are still struggling under high costs.   Chinese Knockoff Airbags Kill Americans: At least six people have died after counterfeit Chinese airbags exploded during crashes, sending shrapnel through vehicles. The NHTSA is investigating, with cases tied to used Chevys and Hyundais.   Foreign Trucker Crisis Deepens: Indian nationals driving illegally in the U.S. are causing deadly crashes after repeatedly failing licensing tests. Bryan reports on one driver who failed ten times but still obtained a CDL through a corrupt Washington State program.   Silicon Valley Honeypot Spies: China and Russia are planting operatives — often young women — inside Bay Area tech firms to steal AI and defense secrets through seduction and marriage. Bryan shares a chilling real-life CIA story illustrating the tactic's human toll.   AI and the Power Problem: OpenAI's massive Texas data center will now run on its own natural gas plant, while the White House expands geothermal energy projects across the West. Bryan calls it “good news for your electric bill — and bad news for America's enemies.”   Good News for U.S. Workers: Provalus, a call center company, is bringing jobs back from India to rural America, paying $40,000 salaries for customer service roles. Bryan says, “It's proof that good business and good patriotism can live in the same company.”   Medical News — Social Media and the Brain: New research shows teens who spend more time on social media score lower in reading and memory tests, suggesting digital overstimulation harms brain development.   "And you shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free." - John 8:32   Keywords: TikTok China interference NYC mayor race, Zohran Mamdani Andrew Cuomo, Senate Democrats block funding bill, Trump tariffs manufacturing growth, U.S. mortgage rates 6.19, Chinese counterfeit airbags NHTSA, illegal Indian truck drivers Washington State CDL, Silicon Valley honeypot spies China Russia, OpenAI Stargate Texas natural gas, geothermal energy leases Nevada Idaho, Provalus rural call centers jobs, social media brain research teenagers

Welcome to part 3 of a very special podcast series we are calling Faith & Justice. In this series, we're diving into what it looks like to follow Jesus in a world that is deeply in need of hope, healing, and justice. We have been partnering with the International Justice Mission, an incredible organization working to end violence, exploitation, and modern-day slavery in some of the darkest corners of the world.  Today, we hear from former NFL linebacker Mark Herzlich. Mark's story is powerful. He's battled cancer, walked away from two dream careers in the NFL and sports broadcasting, and is now following God's call into ministry.  He also opens up about how his wife Danielle's story of childhood abuse has fueled his own passion for justice and standing up for those who can't stand up for themselves. This conversation is real and raw, especially for men of faith who want to live with purpose, courage, and conviction.

In this episode of Hidden Killers with Tony Brueski, we pull back the curtain on the most misleading—and most dangerous—phase of any major crime story: the first 72 hours. Using the Bryan Kohberger case as a case study, Tony dissects how the earliest reporting on the University of Idaho murders quickly spiraled into misinformation, emotional panic, and public certainty based on little more than vague police statements and internet rumor. From “no threat to the community” to “unconscious person” to the infamous white Hyundai ask—almost everything the public believed in the first three days either changed or was clarified later. But by then, the narrative had hardened. In this longform breakdown, we expose how the fog of breaking news forms, why the media often isn't lying (even when the facts change), and how psychologically we cling to early stories even in the face of hard evidence. We explore the myths that formed—victims tied and gagged, the skinned dog rumor, the DoorDash driver, stalker theories—and show exactly what was reported when and why the facts didn't stick. This is not a hit piece on the press. It's a sharp, fact-driven guide to how public perception gets hijacked during active investigations, and why it matters—especially in a case as emotionally loaded and legally complex as the Kohberger trial. If you followed this case from the beginning, you need to hear this. Because chances are, some of what you still believe was never true to begin with.

Hosts Greg Bluestein and Tia Mitchell take listener questions on everything from Atlanta's most competitive city council race to whether Democrats need more rural voices on the ballot. They also dig into new records showing Governor Brian Kemp was blindsided by the Hyundai immigration raid, and they answer concerns about Donald Trump deploying troops to U.S. cities — and whether Atlanta could be next.

Shoot us a Text.Episode #1161: Today we're talking about the end of the EV lease credit frenzy and how dealers and OEMs are adjusting. We'll also hit Hertz's big push into e-commerce with Tom Brady, and OpenAI's bold play to challenge TikTok with AI video.With the $7,500 EV lease credit gone, September's sales rush gave way to a new normal. Dealers say volume could dip at first, but manufacturers are adjusting incentives, production, and lease programs while retailers recalibrate inventory and ordering strategies.Ford CEO Jim Farley said he “wouldn't be surprised” if EV sales fall by half without the federal incentive.Like we covered a couple of days ago, GM and Ford are extending the lease credit through creative captive finance workarounds, while Hyundai is offering a $7,500 cash incentive on the 2025 Ioniq 5 and plans to cut 2026 model prices by up to $9,800.Dealer Andy Guelcher says “It was time for this to go away, and I think that [EVs] can stand on their own,” but he expects some near-term demand bumps.“Nobody wants to be in a position where we're stuck with a lot of inventory that's not moving,” said Dealer Ken Ganley.Hertz is going all-in on digital retail, launching a new e-commerce platform that lets customers browse, finance, and purchase used cars entirely online, positioning retail as its primary sales channel, according to CEO Gil West.The new HertzCarSales.com site has evolved from a catalog into a full-service e-commerce platform.The move builds on Hertz's August partnership with Amazon Autos, now covering all 45 Hertz Car Sales locations.Hertz has also expanded its Rent2Buy program to more than 100 cities, giving shoppers extended test drives before committing.A national campaign with Tom Brady debuts this week, promoting the simplicity of buying a Hertz vehicle.CEO Gil West called it “a major step forward in modernizing how we serve our customers.”OpenAI is betting AI-powered video can win the race for user attention, announcing Sora 2, a new social-media app for its AI video generator. Sora 2 lets users create HD video clips with audio from text prompts and upload themselves into AI-generated worlds.The TikTok competitor will include vertical feeds, algorithm-driven recommendations, and safeguards against endless doomscrolling.0:00 Looking back at the history of More Than Cars2:00 Intro with Paul J Daly and Kyle Mountsier2:30 The Big More Than Cars Launch5:33 Upcoming ASOTU Edge Webinar with Uber For Business6:22 How Dealers and OEMs are Responding To The End of the EV Tax Credit10:01 Hertz Goes All In On Digital Car Sales12:Join Paul J Daly and Kyle Mountsier every morning for the Automotive State of the Union podcast as they connect the dots across car dealerships, retail trends, emerging tech like AI, and cultural shifts—bringing clarity, speed, and people-first insight to automotive leaders navigating a rapidly changing industry.Get the Daily Push Back email at https://www.asotu.com/ JOIN the conversation on LinkedIn at: https://www.linkedin.com/company/asotu/

He loves you and will meet you right where you're at. Friend, this conversation will encourage you to keep opening your Bible and remind you that you don't have to do it alone.

President Donald Trump and Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said Israel had accepted a U.S. plan for Gaza. But prospects for ending the war lean on Arab and Muslim states to deliver Hamas' agreement to disarm. And a U.S. and Israeli threat hangs heavily. Also: today's stories, including how Gen Z women are turning away from motherhood; how a raid by U.S. immigration agents on a Hyundai factory in Georgia amplified South Korean frustration with its American ally; and how tax credits for electric vehicle purchases in the U.S. are changing under the Trump administration.

And Apple quietly tests a Siri revamp while leaning on Google to stay in the AI race.Show Notes with links:U.S. auto sales stayed stronger than expected this summer, but analysts now warn the industry may face a softer fourth quarter as affordability challenges and waning incentives take hold.September SAAR reached 16.2M, boosted by a surge in EV purchases before the $7,500 credit expired.EVs made up over 12% of September retail sales, with Q3 EV share hitting a record 10%.GM, Toyota, Ford, and Hyundai continue to grow share, while Stellantis is on its ninth straight quarterly decline.Analysts expect full-year sales of 16.1M, slightly above 2024 but below the current pace.“The federal tax credit was a key catalyst for EV adoption, and its expiration marks a pivotal moment,” said Cox's Stephanie Valdez Streaty.Despite tariffs rattling the market, brand loyalty is holding strong for trusted automakers like Toyota, Honda, and Ford. J.D. Power's 2025 U.S. Automotive Brand Loyalty Study shows loyalty dipped slightly below 50% overall, but top brands are still keeping customers in the family.Average brand loyalty across all nameplates is 49%, down from 51% last year.Toyota leads mass market cars at 62%, with Honda close behind.Honda tops mass market SUVs at 62%, just ahead of Subaru.Ford trucks earn the highest loyalty in the entire study at 66.6%.Tyson Jominy of J.D. Power ““Brand loyalty matters to vehicle buyers because it's often associated with higher residual values, making vehicles from trusted brands a more financially sound choice over time.””Apple is testing a new internal chatbot, Veritas, to speed up Siri's long-delayed AI overhaul. While employees are using it to prototype smarter features, Apple looks increasingly likely to lean on Google's Gemini for consumer-facing AI.Veritas is being used to test Siri upgrades like searching personal data and editing photos.The tool functions like ChatGPT or Gemini, with conversational history and deeper follow-ups.Apple has delayed its Siri revamp multiple times, with Apple Intelligence drawing lukewarm reviews.For now, Veritas will remain internal — a move Bloomberg's Mark Gurman calls a mistake.Apple may outsource search AI to Google, signaling it's behind in the race to integrate AI.0:00 Intro with Paul J Daly and Kyle Mountsier1:30 The More Than Cars Launch on October 1 - morethancars.com4:59 September Retail Auto Sales Strong7:54 JD Power Brand Loyalty SurJoin Paul J Daly and Kyle Mountsier every morning for the Automotive State of the Union podcast as they connect the dots across car dealerships, retail trends, emerging tech like AI, and cultural shifts—bringing clarity, speed, and people-first insight to automotive leaders navigating a rapidly changing industry.Get the Daily Push Back email at https://www.asotu.com/ JOIN the conversation on LinkedIn at: https://www.linkedin.com/company/asotu/

Sara was never seen again. In March 2024, a year after Sara disappeared, investigators announced Tyrone D. Morman was a person of interest in her case and that they had determined she had left with Morman on the night she was last seen. According to Sara's sister Michele, Sara did not know Mormon.  In this episode, Michele Tullis discusses her sister's disappearance, and some of the roadblocks she's faced trying to get answers.  Sara is described as a White female standing 5'1, and weighing 120 pounds.

Today is part 4 of our marriage series and we're wrapping things up with an incredible couple: Justin & Trisha Davis. Their story? It's real. It's raw. In 2002 after planting their first church, Justin had an affair with a staff member (who was also Trisha's best friend). They walked through four years of deep pain, grief, counseling and by God's grace… restoration. Here's the thing… not every hard season happens because of choices we make. A medical diagnosis. A failed business. A struggling child. Family drama. A pandemic. These moments can easily pull us apart or force us to stand together even closer. Justin & Trisha remind us that marriage works best when you choose to face challenges as a team instead of as enemies. We talk about the importance of honesty, vulnerability and turning towards your spouse when things get tough.  This episode is full of practical wisdom and a whole lot of grace. I hope you are encouraged.

CALIFORNIA WON'T REPLACE FEDERAL EV TAX CREDIT California will focus resources on expanding EV charging infrastructure after deciding not to immediately replace the expiring federal EV tax credit, aiming to support long-term statewide electrification. The state may revive its own incentive next year, potentially funded by successful carbon-trading programs, and remains committed to reducing emissions and fostering green innovation.

TESLA UPDATES ORDERING LANGUAGE FOR $7,500 EV CREDIT Tesla swiftly updated its order process to align with the IRS's newly clarified rules, ensuring more customers can still benefit from the $7,500 federal EV tax credit even if delivery takes place after September 30. This proactive approach helps buyers maximize incentives while making EV ownership more affordable.

JEEP CANCELS GLADIATOR PLUG-IN HYBRID Jeep is refocusing its Gladiator lineup in response to evolving customer preferences, ensuring continued investment and production stability for this popular midsize pickup through at least 2028. The model remains strong, with recent sales growth following price adjustments, and Jeep continues to innovate with their electrified SUV range.

VOLVO RUNS THREE-VEHICLE CRASH TEST DEMONSTRATION WITH EX90 Volvo performed an unprecedented three-vehicle crash test with the EX90, going beyond regulatory requirements to set new benchmarks for real-world EV safety. Test data showed excellent occupant protection, demonstrating Volvo's continued leadership in automotive safety during the industry's electrification shift.

Aubrey Janick was stuck with a Jeep she didn't like. When a friend mentioned renting his car on Turo, she listed it that same night. That impulse decision grew into a massive car-sharing business with a 34-vehicle, self-funded fleet that now generates up to $40,000 a month in revenue.What started as a side hustle became a lesson in smart asset acquisition. Aubrey mastered sourcing cars from Facebook Marketplace with a simple but brilliant strategy: buying reliable, depreciated vehicles below market value. This approach minimized risk and maximized profit on each rental, allowing her to rapidly expand her portfolio from one car to dozens.In this interview, Aubrey joins Ryan Atkinson to break down her entire business model. She reveals her checklist for buying profitable used cars, the specific models that generate the highest returns, and her system for managing a large fleet. This episode provides a clear roadmap to generating serious passive income through car sharing.Takeaways:- Act quickly to avoid "analysis paralysis." The guest listed her first car the same night she heard the idea, emphasizing that taking immediate action is crucial.- The most important strategy is to buy cars below market value that have already hit their depreciation floor. This minimizes financial risk and can even lead to a profit if the car is totaled.- You can source an entire fleet of vehicles from Facebook Marketplace. This allows you to find deals and scale without relying on traditional dealerships.- Don't rent out a personal vehicle you're emotionally attached to. Treat the cars purely as business assets and be prepared for wear, tear, and damage.- Reliable, low-maintenance brands like Toyota and specific Hyundai models offer the best value. Certain Hyundais, like the Elantra GT, have a lifetime engine warranty, making them a particularly smart buy.- A single car can generate significant revenue, with good cash cars earning $900-$1300 a month and higher-end models earning up to $2,100 a month.- The business is highly scalable. The guest grew her fleet from one car to 34, turning a side hustle into a full-time business generating up to $40,000 a month.- The barrier to entry is low. The guest's second car was purchased for under $3,000 in cash, funded by profits from the first car and personal savings.- Strictly follow the platform's Terms of Service. This is your primary protection against liability and financial loss in case of an accident.- Total losses are a predictable part of the business. By purchasing cars correctly (below market value), you can be financially covered or even profit from an insurance payoutTags:  Side Hustle, Entrepreneurship, Passive Income, Flipping Cars, Car Sharing, Turo, Facebook MarketplaceResources:Grow your business today: https://links.upflip.com/the-business-startup-and-growth-blueprint-podcastConnect with Aubrey:  https://www.youtube.com/c/AubreyJanik

We'll start with the bad news, Lizz is out for today's podcast. But the good news is Kate from Naptime Kitchen is BACK to take her place for the day! She's been living that book tour life but managed to find the time to join Kelly to talk about all the adventures she's had since becoming a published author.  Then, it's time to rundown Last Three Transactions. Kate had to break down and buy a new Apple watch since her last one broke and realized how much she misses having it on her wrist. She's also been transacting to get ready for her daughter's birthday and running by a local bakery to grab her favorite go-to quiche for a quick meal at home. Kelly is stocking up on pre-cut parchment paper that has been a game changer in her kitchen. Plus, another Facebook Marketplace haul and a major order from Athleta.  In Industry News, it turns out AI is NOT good at everything - specifically designing cars. Our dreams of flying cars might be on hold for a little longer as Hyundai announced it is halting his air taxi department.  Finally, in Ditch the Drive-Thru how to elevate your tuna melt and grilled cheese sandwich. 

Tommy & Ben start with Gaza: the UN Human Rights Council's finding that Israel has committed genocide, and Israel's ground operation into Gaza City. They discuss how Marco Rubio signaled that Trump has given up on brokering a peace deal in Gaza, and why the Netanyahu government is telling the press that Trump is lying about his knowledge of the IDF airstrike in Qatar. Also covered: Kash Patel's combative Senate hearing about the rampant dysfunction at the FBI, the global reaction to the murder of Charlie Kirk and the dark conspiracy theories that have emerged around it, the long-term harm to the US-South Korea relationship caused by the ICE raid on a Hyundai plant in Georgia, Nepal's democracy by Discord, Trump's UK state visit amid Jeffrey Epstein fallout and far-right protests, Trump's ultimatums to NATO, and Conor McGregor's aborted bid for the Irish presidency. Then, Tommy speaks to Tom Fletcher, the UN Under-Secretary-General for Humanitarian Affairs and Emergency Relief Coordinator, about the humanitarian situations in Haiti, Sudan, and Gaza, the devastating effects of the gutting of USAID, and what's giving him hope right now.

This is a free preview of a paid episode. To hear more, visit www.politix.fmDonald Trump and several of his top officials have promised to unleash a partisan crackdown in Charlie Kirk's honor, even as the notion that Kirk's assassin was in league with the institutional left becomes more far fetched. In light of the week's developments, we discuss:* Our personal reactions to the Kirk murder, and the contours of the overall public response;* What we know about the GOP plan to use it as a pretext to crack down on political dissent;* The differences between using free speech and believing in free speech; the related differences between good-faith debate and propaganda.Then, is MAGA's seamless fusion of partisan propaganda with state functions actually a source of political power for the GOP? Between Trump's sinking poll numbers on issue after issue, public rejection of his immigration crackdown, and spiraling, trollish foreign policy, is there any reason to believe Americans won't reject a speech crackdown, too? And if the administration is embarking on a losing abuse of power (even if only to generate yet more propaganda) is there any good reason why Democrats shouldn't fight them by seizing the mantle of free speech?All that, plus the full Politix archive are available to paid subscribers—just upgrade your subscription and pipe full episodes directly to your favorite podcast app via your own private feed.Further reading:* Matt's extremely conflicted take on the looming government shutdown. * Brian on the GOP's recursive cycle of abusing power to generate propaganda to justify further abuses of power, and how to respond;* The extensive fallout of the propaganda-driven Hyundai factory raid.

This week: ICE raided a Hyundai plant in Georgia. Felix Salmon, Elizabeth Spiers, and Emily Peck discuss the somewhat hamfisted raid that detained hundreds of South Korean workers–disrupting both Hyundai's operations and the local economy–and the potential fallout if foreign companies see this as a reason to avoid investing in the US. Then, Oracle's stock surged this week thanks to its AI deals, bringing it close to a trillion dollar valuation and briefly making Larry Ellison the richest man in the world. They dive into Oracle actually does and whether it's really worth the rarified distinction of being a trillion dollar company. And finally, JP Morgan is about to open its incredibly fancy new headquarters at 270 Park Avenue and Felix hates it. The hosts discuss the landscape of massive bank buildings in New York City and the extremely plush amenities 270 Park  will be offering to keep workers on site.  In the Slate Plus episode: Zuckerberg (Mark E.) v.

A recent immigration raid at a Hyundai manufacturing facility in Georgia led to the detention of nearly 500 workers, most of them South Korean nationals.
