Podcasts about IDS

Kansas legislators have had an unusually busy year so far — most recently the passage of a law that restricts bathroom usage for transgender people, and prohibits gender changes on IDs. We'll hear about what's been passed at the halfway point, and what's still to come.

Pete and the crew welcome returning guest Matt “Taterhog” McBee to unpack the Dual Threat (DTF) tournament meltdown — missing checks, Bitcoin promises, fake IDs and anglers' reactions from Okeechobee to the St. Johns River. Taterhog shares his firsthand perspective on what happened and how the scam unfolded. They also hit quick gear and event notes, Florida fishing tips, plus entertaining on-the-water moments — pelicans, gators and Lake Murray hot spots — and upcoming events like the Bassmaster Classic.

Today's Headlines: Former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton testified before the House Oversight Committee in the first of two days of Epstein-related depositions involving the Clintons. The closed-door hearing was briefly paused after Rep. Lauren Boebert leaked a photo of Clinton testifying to right-wing podcaster Benny Johnson, who posted it online. Clinton later told reporters she “did not know Jeffrey Epstein” and criticized the committee for not calling individuals more prominently named in Epstein files. She also said lawmakers repeatedly questioned her about UFOs and “Pizzagate.” Meanwhile, U.S.–Iran nuclear talks resumed in Geneva, with officials describing discussions as “positive,” even as concerns linger about potential military escalation. In New York, Columbia University student Elmina Aghayeva was detained by ICE agents inside her campus housing after agents reportedly misrepresented themselves to gain entry. She was later released following intervention by NYC Mayor Zohran Mamdani, who was meeting with Donald Trump at the White House regarding housing investment proposals. Vice President JD Vance announced a pause on $259 million in Medicaid funding allocated to Minnesota, signaling potential broader funding freezes. In Kansas, the Republican-controlled legislature overrode Gov. Laura Kelly's veto to enact a law invalidating updated gender markers on driver's licenses and birth certificates for transgender residents. In media and tech, Netflix withdrew its bid to acquire Warner Bros. Discovery, clearing the way for Paramount's higher offer. AI company Anthropic announced it is dropping its 2023 voluntary safety pledge amid competitive pressure. More than 1,800 companies have filed lawsuits seeking refunds for Trump-era tariffs ruled illegal, totaling roughly $130 billion. Finally, Trump also invoked the Defense Production Act to boost domestic production of glyphosate, the active ingredient in Roundup, despite ongoing litigation linking the herbicide to cancer, and a new military readiness report additionally calls for major Pentagon reforms in cybersecurity, procurement, and tech modernization.

In this episode of the Social Work Rants Podcast, host Bas Moreno discusses the proposed SAVE Act and its implications for social workers and their clients. The conversation highlights the challenges posed by the Act, particularly regarding ID requirements for voting, and how these changes disproportionately affect marginalized communities, especially women and those without stable housing. Moreno emphasizes the need for social workers to understand these challenges and advocate for their clients' rights.TAKEAWAYS:1. The SAVE Act proposes stricter ID requirements for voting.2. Many Americans lack the necessary IDs to vote.3. Women who have changed their last names may face voting challenges.4. The Act could disenfranchise millions of voters, especially marginalized groups.5. Obtaining necessary documents like birth certificates can be difficult for clients.6. Social workers must be aware of these challenges to assist their clients effectively.7. The political landscape is increasingly making it harder for people of color to vote.8. Community support and advocacy are crucial in navigating these changes.9. The conversation around voting rights is often overshadowed by other political issues.10. Social workers should help clients understand their voting rights and options.

The University of Iowa's Center for Intellectual Freedom has low enrollment. The Iowa Senate has passed bills focused on immigration status checks. And Iowa cities and counties wouldn't be able to issue community IDs under a bill in the state legislature.

Welcome back to the Compared to Who? podcast and our ongoing series, Waiting for Weight Loss. In today’s episode, Heather Creekmore shares a powerful story about a time when her identity—literally—was stolen, setting the stage for an honest discussion about our true identity in Christ. Episode Highlights: Heather Creekmore opens up with a personal experience of being mugged and losing her physical identification, making the connection to how many of us “lose” our spiritual identity while chasing the approval of others or pursuing body goals. She asks: Has your identity been stolen—figuratively—by misplaced priorities, societal pressures, or the pursuit of weight loss? We explore the idea that any identity outside of Christ is a “fake ID,” and discuss what it means to rest in our adoption as daughters (and sons) of God. Heather Creekmore unpacks how our attempts to earn love and acceptance through appearance or achievements are distractions from the Gospel. The healthiest approach to weight loss and goals? Pursuing them from a place of already being fully loved and accepted, not from a place of insecurity or striving to earn worth. Reflection Questions: What “fake IDs” have you been carrying? How would your approach to your body and your goals change if you truly believed your identity was already secure in Christ? Check out Episode on Boasting Here Join the Community!Join the conversation! Heather Creekmore invites you to become part of our supportive community at waitingforweightloss.com. Share your story, connect with others, and discover what it means to pursue your goals from a place of true security and love.

A new wave of legislation could change the Internet forever. From the U.S. to Australia, digital ID laws are emerging that could require users—especially teens—to prove their age with facial scans, credit cards, or government IDs just to go online. This episode dives into the so-called Online Safety Act, the SHOVE trial in LA, and the role of Republicans like Ted Cruz and Anna Pulina Luna in sponsoring measures that critics call “speech tyranny.” We explore the potential impact on free expression, social media companies, and everyday users—plus why Fox News is relentless in its coverage.

In Episode 60 of The Ultimate Assist, Alix Meyer returns with one warning: the trap isn't coming — it's already here.Is Real ID just an airport upgrade… or the foundation of a digital surveillance state?Are we voluntarily opting into a system that could one day decide where we work, whether we travel, or even how much carbon we're “allowed” to consume?Alix breaks down her concept of “weaponized architecture” — systems that appear helpful on the surface but are built to control beneath it. From biometric databases and facial recognition to what she calls the “Internet of Bodies,” she argues that Americans are being nudged — not forced — into a digital identity framework that may ultimately reshape freedom itself.The conversation turns explosive when she questions:Are measles outbreaks being used to manufacture public consent?Has California effectively “medically seceded” from federal authority?Is a social credit-style system closer than we think?Are digital IDs the next opt-in control mechanism?Whether you agree with her or not, this episode will challenge your assumptions about privacy, health freedom, and the true cost of convenience.Are we protecting ourselves… or building our own cage?Understanding Hypophosphatemia: Recognition, Diagnosis, and TreatmentEndocrine experts distinguish Hypophosphatemia from osteoporosis & osteomalaciaListen on: Apple Podcasts SpotifySupport the show

This week on The Financial Guys Podcast, Mike Lomas, Mike Sperrazza, and Glenn Wiggle kick things off celebrating American gold medal winners who proudly represent the country—contrasting their grit and patriotism with what they see as media-driven negativity and political outrage. The guys dive into the education system and why more parents are turning to homeschooling, the chaos surrounding voter ID and fake IDs in a tech-driven world, and New York's snow shoveling debacle as a case study in government incompetence.They also tackle the Epstein list fallout, growing distrust in federal agencies, questions surrounding Iran and weapons of mass destruction, immigration enforcement, and internal Republican Party divisions heading into the midterms. From border security to inflation messaging, the hosts argue it's time for clarity, accountability, and a serious course correction before voters head back to the polls.(00:02:25) Patriotic American Athletes Triumphing with Gold Medals(00:08:45) Benefit of Homeschooling for Children's Education(00:14:59) Tech advancements fuel increasing sophistication in fake IDs(00:17:20) Efficiency and Planning in Snow Shoveling(00:23:16) Implications of Being on Epstein's List(00:26:31) Manipulation and Intrigue by Intelligence Agencies(00:30:38) Debating Iran's Nuclear Capabilities and Transparency(00:37:55) Enhanced Driver's Licenses for Immigration Control(00:38:51) Republican Party Disunity: MAGA Faction Chaos

Send a textThis episode focuses on juveniles and juvenile law, starting with a discussion with a prosecutor and defense attorney who work in the juvenile justice system. They discuss their work, provide legal updates, and offer some sage advice for parents. The episode also includes statements from teens who want to become lawyers, a discussion with some lawyer parents who are raising teens, and statements from law students who volunteer to help teens impacted by the juvenile justice system. The episode concludes with a service spotlight that provides some insight into how minor trouble during the teens can contribute to major trouble later in life.Juvenile Justice: "Get in Your Kids' Business"Michael Hanson (Senior Counsel & Area Lead at Varghese Summersett) and Jamie Reyna (Juvenile Division Chief of the Harris County DA's Office) discuss some important distinctions between the juvenile justice and the adult criminal justice systems in Texas, talk about some relatively recent statutory changes that impact juveniles, and provide advice for parents of teens in light of what they've seen in their professional lives. Juvenile Goals: Future AdvocatesBehind the Lines asked high school students Yulianna Perales and Emily Castillo, who both want to be lawyers, why they are interested in studying law. Their short statements will remind you why you decided to enter this profession. *Coffee & Counsel: Parenting Teens*Parenting teen-agers has its challenges for parents, and certainly teens with lawyer parents likely think that has its challenges as well. This inaugural “Coffee & Counsel” segment includes three lawyers discussing having teen-aged children: Chastity Horne (Horne Rota Moos), Courtney Ervin (Hicks Thomas), and Derek Hollingsworth (Drumheller, Hollingsworth, & Monthy). While there is some legal information included in the discussion, such as what advice to give a teen who is learning to drive, it is also just a discussion among parents who want what is best for their children.Younger lawyer parents will also benefit from the wisdom of these more seasoned parents! Juvenile Allies: Law Students Making a DifferenceBehind the Lines asked three law students who have worked with juveniles during law school, Amy Abbott, Raisha Williams, and Claire Wills. These students all attend University of Houston Law Center. Thank you to BTL Interviewer Chandria Jackson for recruiting these guests. *Service Spotlight: The Beacon*Interviewer Ciara PerritanoNew BTL interviewer Ciara Perritano talks with Stephanie Marrone (Managing Attorney, Beacon Law) about the services Beacon Law offers to help unhoused individuals get back on track. Topics include how issues that may have happened while clients were juveniles such as having a truancy or driving without a license violation, impact their housing status, and how Beacon Law and its pro bono volunteers can help. This segment provides substantive legal discussion about the different types of legal issues impeding clients from getting IDs and housing, such as name changes, expunction, and sealing. For full speaker bios, visit The Houston Lawyer (hba.org/thehoustonlawyer).

By David Stephen The first admission, regarding solving social media addiction and harm for users, especially teens, is that digital is generally harder to enforce than the physical. This is, in part, evident where, to enforce some barriers in digital, physical [like IDs] maybe necessary. It is not very useful to directly compare safeguards for social media with physical facilities, like seatbelts, which are easier to detect by enforcement as well as have menacing alarms and alerts implemented. Can Brain Science Solve Social Media Addiction? Evasion and bypass are more common with digital that even in some strict cases, for public platforms, access is possible for those who should not see it. This means that while social media companies are expected to do better, there is also the chance to put forward potent solutions that would ensure that people are not just restricted, but they also do not want it. Simply, whatever social media is that make users swarm it can be said to do something for people, or that people want it. So, how can people not want it, or want it less? This was a method with cigarettes, where packs were suffused with grim images of [health and life] losses, such that even as some people ignored it, it made a mind dent for some, that they were never unaware of what is probable, in the side-effects of it. While this may not work for social media, because it is static, it indicates that a means to have it repelled will be useful to ensure people do not have their minds become casualties of social media, especially during formative years. For example, AI chatbots have mild and static messages, but they have been unable to make any difference for those that leapt in to AI delusion and AI psychosis. There is a recent [February 13, 2026] guest essay in The New York Times, We're All in a Throuple With A.I., stating that, "but a polite suggestion after three hours of A.I. conversation is not enough. Why not play video testimonials from people whose human relationships withered after years of nonstop chat with bots?" While it is possible that this might work, it might be skipped or the people assume they won't fall the same way, while believing others have a problem. This leaves the option to the mind. Like a possible model of how the human mind works, to see corresponding relays and vulnerabilities [conceptually, at minimum]. Meta and YouTube Lawsuit There is a new [February 18, 2026] report on CNN, Meta's Zuckerberg testifies about social media's effects on children in landmark trial, stating that, "Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg was grilled Wednesday about whether his company intentionally designed Instagram to be addictive, in front of the young woman accusing Meta and YouTube of hooking her as a child and damaging her mental health." "But Lanier showed an internal document from 2015 that estimated over 4 million Instagram users were under 13, which it said represented "30% of all 10-12 year olds in the US." Lanier has said the now-20-year-old plaintiff, Kaley, began using Instagram at age 9." "Lanier pointed out that it wasn't until December 2019 that Instagram began asking new users to input a birthdate when signing up; previously, it just asked them to confirm they were above the age of 13. Instagram in August 2021 started asking existing users to provide a birthdate if they hadn't done so previously, as part of a safety push for young people." "In another tense exchange, Lanier grilled Zuckerberg over Instagram's decision to allow "beauty" filters that manipulate a user's face to make it appear they're wearing makeup or have had facial surgery. Meta consulted with 18 experts that found such filters can cause harm, Lanier said." "Instagram ultimately decided to allow such filters created by users but not to promote them in the app." Mind Safety from Conceptual Brain Science While changes are expected for social media in the coming years, digital is already in the lives of children, in a way that will ultimately req...

In this action-packed episode of The Rita Cosby Show, Rita tackles the glaring political hypocrisy of New York City requiring multiple IDs just to shovel snow, while the left continues to insist that voter ID is racist. Callers light up the lines to celebrate the pure, missing-toothed patriotism of USA Hockey star Jack Hughes, contrasting his love for America with "woke" athletes making excuses to skip White House visits. The episode also dives into Abigail Spanberger's upcoming Democratic State of the Union response, examining how the former CIA officer seemingly pivoted from moderate to radical leftist. Finally, Rita breaks down the terrifying cartel violence and Costco fires erupting in Mexico following the US-backed takedown of a major drug lord, Gavin Newsom's shocking pardon of a violent alien, and some incredibly wild caller theories regarding the mysterious disappearance of Nancy Guthrie.

On today's episode, we discuss the escalating cartel violence in Mexico, how it has trapped American tourists in resort cities, and what it reveals about the Mexican government's loss of control to organized crime. The hosts connect this chaos to broader security concerns, including a partial shutdown of the U.S. Department of Homeland Security and a foiled attack by a heavily armed intruder at Mar-a-Lago, raising questions about strained federal protection resources. They shift to lighter but telling moments, from Tesla's self-driving quirks around “low IQ” dogs to New York City's requirement of multiple IDs to get paid for shoveling snow while not requiring ID to vote, as an example of skewed policy priorities. The conversation then turns legal and political, covering Louisiana welfare fraud prosecutions, limits on what SNAP can buy, and a major lawsuit accusing Meta of making social media unreasonably addictive for children. Finally, they explore the public's growing hostility toward Elon Musk, the prospect of AI arbitrators and even AI juries in future legal disputes, and the continuing fight over election integrity laws like the SAVE Act.

In this segment, we break down the bizarre “emergency snow shoveler” signup that demands passport-style photos, multiple IDs, and a Social Security card—more documentation to clear a sidewalk than to vote. Meanwhile, a stunning poll shows Democrats under 35 embracing “democratic socialism” at alarming rates. The SAVE Act debate just got exposed in the most absurd way possible.

The constant comparison game on social media is robbing you of your time, confidence, and creativity. I had the same problem. Mindless scrolling held me back for a long time. Today, I'll be sharing how I broke free from the cycle and got back into creation mode.  It wasn't until I sat down to reflect on my progress during my year-end review that I realized how much time I was wasting on the unintentional scroll that was eating up so many hours I could be using to build my brand. My journey over the last year has been about creating better habits and using my phone, not letting it control me. When used intentionally, social media can be an incredible tool. But without a plan, it becomes an unproductive rabbit hole. If you're feeling stuck in a cycle of comparison or constantly fighting the temptation to scroll mindlessly, tune in for some tips that helped me skyrocket my productivity and creativity while building my brand.

The SAVE Act is hitting a make-or-break moment in the Senate—and Democrats don’t want to defend the indefensible. In this breakdown, we expose the hypocrisy: a throwback Chuck Schumer clip admitting ID is basic anti-fraud, Gavin Newsom claiming he “can’t find” his birth certificate while blocking voter ID in California, and the insane reality of SB 1174.

Send a textMost cybersecurity stories talk about the hacks, but this episode peels back the curtain on the raw, unfiltered journey of a hacker turned industry pioneer. Jason Haddix shares how his early days of hex editing and fake IDs evolved into leading offensive security at Fortune 100 giants — all driven by relentless curiosity and defiance. His tales of surviving the shadowy underground, navigating multi-year career pivots, and turning obsession into innovation will blow your mind. This isn't just about tech — it's about fearlessly forging a path in a chaotic, ever-changing world where knowledge is power and resilience is everything.You'll discover the secret frameworks behind modern pen testing—like the Bug Hunters Methodology—and how cutting-edge tools are reshaping cybersecurity. Jason dives into his real-world battles: from bypassing the most sophisticated security measures to hacking into critical infrastructure under intense pressure. His insights reveal the brutal truths of red teaming, physical infiltration, and the mental grit required to succeed when everyone else doubts you.We break down the rise of AI and LLMs in security: how attackers jailbreak systems, bypass defenses with prompt injections, and weaponize new technologies faster than security teams can respond. Jason warns about deploying these powerful tools without enough guardrails or understanding — and how FOMO is fueling a wild, unsecured frontier. His perspective is a call to arms for defenders and hackers alike: adapt fast, think boldly, and stay one step ahead in the most dangerous cyber game yet.This episode is essential for anyone hungry to understand the raw reality of offensive security, the future of AI in hacking, and the relentless pursuit of mastery in a digital battlefield. Whether you're a seasoned pro, a curious newcomer, or a business leader, Jason's fearless authenticity will challenge your assumptions and ignite your passion to innovate. Hit play — your fight for security starts now.Chapters00:00 Introduction and Background in Cybersecurity06:05 Early Experiences and Learning in Cybersecurity12:14 Transitioning to Professional Penetration Testing18:30 Challenges and Realities of Consulting in Cybersecurity20:41 Phishing Tests and Their Consequences23:09 Transitioning to Entrepreneurship26:05 The Evolution of Training and Consulting31:18 The Role of AI in Cybersecurity39:11 Navigating AI Security Challenges39:11 Understanding LLMs and User Education41:42 Privacy Concerns and Risk Management in AI44:32 Prompt Engineering Vulnerabilities and Jailbreaking Techniques47:03 Security Challenges in AI Systems49:39 Future of AI and Community EngagementSupport the showFollow the Podcast on Social Media!

As immigration enforcement actions continue across the country, Indigenous people are increasingly concerned they are being targeted by U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE). And some have been detained. For the Mountain West News Bureau, Daniel Spaulding has more. On the morning of December 5, ShyLynn Allen received a panicked phone call from Jose Joaquin Sanchez Alvarado, the father of her children. Alvarado was driving from his home in Meridian, Idaho to pick up their 10-year-old son to take him to school. Suddenly, he was surrounded by police. “He called me from inside the car and he’s like, ‘I think,’ he’s like, ‘I think they’re taking me.’ And he was just like, ‘I’m pretty sure.’ He’s like, ‘I’m pretty sure they’re detaining me.” Allen is a member of the Shoshone-Paiute Tribe in Idaho and Nevada. Alvarado, who is undocumented and not a tribal member, came to the United States from Mexico when he was just 11-years-old. “He doesn't have a criminal record. I don't even know why they're really targeting him. You know, he's a good person. He's not. He's never been in trouble like he always works like that's all he does is work.” Alvarado is now being held in an ICE detention facility near Las Vegas, Nev. Allen says the emotional toll has fallen heavily on their children. “Now they don't even want to go outside or do anything.” As ICE ramps up operations across the country, that fear is widespread in Native communities. Despite being U.S. citizens and members of sovereign tribal nations, Indigenous people are increasingly being questioned – and in some cases detained – by immigration agents. In January, Peter Yazzie, an enrolled member of the Navajo Nation, was detained by ICE in Phoenix before being released later that day. “We are the first peoples of the country, and our citizenship should never be questioned or challenged by anyone.” That is Crystalyne Curley, the Speaker of the Navajo Nation Council. In January, the council passed legislation calling on ICE to formally recognize Navajo Nation identification documents. Many tribes across the country are urging their citizens to carry tribal IDs at all times. In January, the Native American Rights Fund (NARF) hosted a know your rights webinar. Over a thousand people attended. Beth Wright (Laguna Pueblo) is a senior staff attorney at NARF. “Yeah, we’re getting a lot of outreach from folks all over the country. I think there’s a lot of concern about what to do if tribal citizens are stopped by ICE and what their rights are in different encounters with ICE. I think one of the important messages to convey is that tribal citizens are citizens of the U.S.” But many Native parents are worried that tribal IDs won't be enough. Eva Flores is a member of the Pascua Yaqui Tribe in Arizona. She lives in Caldwell, Idaho. “You know, I fear for my kids to go out, even just to school or activities, not knowing if, you know, they're coming home or if they're going to be picked up.” In a statement, the Department of Homeland Security said its agents are trained to determine a person's immigration status and whether they are subject to removal. As tribal leaders call on federal authorities to respect tribal sovereignty, parents like ShyLynn Allen are focused on protecting their children. “We don't need ICE on our street. They're only terrorizing brown people. And it's not doing any good. They're violating constitutional rights, they're killing people.” Defending adult division world hoop champ Josiah Enriquez wins his third title in a row at the Heard Museum on February 15, 2026. (Courtesy Heard Museum / Gila River Broadcasting Corporation) The annual Indigenous hoop dancing championships was held over the weekend, returning to the Heard Museum in Phoenix, Ariz. As KJZZ's Gabriel Pietrorazio reports, the reigning titleholder made history by defending his crown once more. A two point difference – 214 points – a three-time champion, Josiah Enriquez…” The three-peat adult division champ, who is Navajo and from the pueblos of Isleta and Pojoaque in New Mexico, made history Sunday night. His victory marks a very rare feat no one else has achieved, except the sport's most decorated dancer three decades ago. Arizona's Derrick Suwaima Davis (Hopi and Choctaw) won three of his record-setting seven world titles in a row between 1996 and 1998. Get National Native News delivered to your inbox daily.

You're listening to American Ground Radio with Louis R. Avallone and Stephen Parr. This is the full show for February 13, 2026. 0:30 If you’re in ICE detention and don’t like the conditions, there’s an option millions of legal immigrants already understand: you’re free to go home. We dismantle claims that immigration detention is “cruel” or comparable to concentration camps, a comparison that is historically ignorant and morally offensive. We explain why deportation is not punishment under Supreme Court precedent, why detention is often a choice when voluntary departure is refused, and how the Department of Homeland Security is now offering illegal immigrants financial assistance and airfare to return home. From border enforcement to national sovereignty, this conversation cuts through the grievance politics to argue a simple principle: a nation without borders is not a nation—and America’s first responsibility is to its citizens. 9:30 Plus, we cover the Top 3 Things You Need to Know. The Federal Government is shutting down again, at least partially.The Senate failed to pass the funding for the Department of Homeland Security this week after Democrats objected to continuing to fund ICE and immigration enforcement efforts. Inflation continued to drop this past month.That's according to data from the Bureau of Labor Statistics. The Department of Transportation is ordering airlines to hire pilots based solely on merit. 12:30 Get Prodovite Plus from Victory Nutrition International for 20% off. Go to vni.life/agr and use the promo code AGR20. 13:00 Rosie O’Donnell says she “fled” a scary America under Donald Trump—but we aren’t buying it. We dig into the celebrity meltdown narrative, arguing that O’Donnell didn’t escape authoritarianism—she escaped cultural relevance. We take aim at the idea that Trump voters are something to fear, mock the performative outrage of Hollywood elites, and point out the obvious: real exiles don’t keep U.S. passports, Hollywood access, dollar-denominated wealth, and residual checks. 16:00 We got a question in for our American Mamas Teri Netterville and Kimberly Burelson: What did you parents do that would get them canceled today? We dive into old-school parenting habits that once felt normal—but might trigger outrage now. From wooden spoons peeking out of purses and chain-smoking grandparents in the car, to paddling at school, drinking from the garden hose, roaming until the streetlights came on, and walking home alone with a key around your neck, the stories paint a picture of a very different America. The Mamas debate discipline, personal responsibility, and whether today’s hyper-sensitive culture has lost something important along the way. Equal parts funny and thought-provoking, this segment taps into parenting debates, generational differences, and the question many families are asking: did tough love work better than we’re willing to admit? If you'd like to ask our American Mamas a question, go to our website, AmericanGroundRadio.com/mamas and click on the Ask the Mamas button. 23:00 Photo ID for voting is suddenly back on the table—and this time, it might actually happen. Webreak down President Donald Trump’s threat to issue an executive order mandating voter ID in federal elections, as Congress inches closer to passing the SAVE Act. The big surprise? Senator Susan Collins is now a yes vote, signaling a major shift even in blue-state politics. We dig into why requiring state-issued photo ID to vote is being framed as “controversial,” despite IDs being required for everything from banking to voting on the U.S. Senate floor itself. And we address the claims that voter ID is racist, question lax ID policies in states like California, and argue this is only the first step toward restoring election integrity—state audits come next.With the 2026 midterms approaching, the message is clear: voter ID isn’t radical—it’s long overdue. 26:00 America’s birth-rate crisis meets peak absurdity in this jaw-dropping Valentine’s Day segment. As lawmakers and economists warn that falling population growth threatens the future of the republic, we react to a surreal new trend out of New York City: a bar hosting Valentine’s Eve “dates” for people in romantic relationships with AI-generated partners. Yes—tables for one human and one phone, courtesy of Eva AI. The conversation turns darkly comedic and brutally honest as we unpack survey data showing more than one in four adults say they’ve had a romantic relationship with artificial intelligence. This isn’t quirky tech optimism—it’s cultural rot. From porn-driven isolation to the death of courtship, the segment takes aim at a dating culture that rewards avoidance, validation, and zero personal growth. You can’t build families with a chatbot. You can’t raise future Americans with an algorithm. And you can’t save a country if men won’t shower, take a risk, and ask a real woman out. This is a blunt warning about masculinity, marriage, AI relationships, and why artificial partners are a dead end—for people and for the nation. 32:00 Get Performlyte from Victory Nutrition International for 20% off. Go to vni.life/agr and use the promo code AGR20. 32:30 After Bad Bunny’s Super Bowl spotlight, a very different side of Puerto Rican culture is making national headlines. We react to a major legal shift in Puerto Rico, where the island’s Republican governor—an ally of Donald Trump—has signed a bill amending the criminal code to recognize an unborn child at any stage of gestation as a human being under criminal law. The change reshapes how homicide is defined, allowing the killing of a fetus during a violent crime against a pregnant woman to be prosecuted as the unlawful killing of a human being. 35:30 Plus, it's Fake News Friday! We're putting you to the test with our weekly game of headlines—are they real news, fake news, or really fake news? claims about voter ID and ICE popularity to Olympic scandals, celebrity outrage, and truly ridiculous media narratives, can you spot the fake news? Play along, keep score, and share your results with us on Facebook page: facebook.com/AmericanGroundRadio. 39:30 Don Lemon plead not guilty after being charged with conspiracy under the FACE Act for his alleged role in a coordinated disruption of a church in Minnesota. We dismantle Lemon’s claim that he was “just doing journalism,” arguing that planning, participating, and referring to activists as “we” crosses the line from reporting into outright political activism—raising serious questions about press ethics, religious freedom, and First Amendment rights during the Donald Trump era.

Larry Kudlow discusses several high-priority conservative policy goals with guests Joe Concha and Mark Simone, primarily focusing on the push for mandatory voter ID and proof of citizenship for the upcoming elections. The speakers frame the lack of identification requirements as a logical inconsistency, noting that photo IDs are required for daily activities like air travel and entering media buildings, while suggesting that public opinion across various demographics strongly supports these measures. The conversation then shifts to the defunding of sanctuary cities, where the participants argue that local non-compliance with ICE leads to increased crime and prevents the efficient deportation of criminal undocumented immigrants.

We kick things off in FOLLOW UP with the ongoing "nuclear war" between Automattic and WP Engine, where discovery has revealed Matt Mullenweg's alleged hit list of competitors and a desperate attempt to bully payment processors—because nothing says "open source" like an eight-percent royalty shakedown. Meanwhile, the Harvard Business Review confirmed what we already knew: AI isn't reducing our work; it's just compressing it until we're all working through lunch and burning out faster while Polymarket turns our collective brain rot into a literal "attention market" where you can bet on Elon's mindshare.Transitioning to IN THE NEWS, Elon has officially pivoted SpaceX from Mars to the Moon, presumably because building a "self-growing lunar city" is easier than admitting the Red Planet is hard, though his xAI all-hands rant about "ancient alien catapults" suggests he's been staring at the sun too long. Between X allegedly taking blue-check lunch money from sanctioned Iranian leaders, Meta facing trials for creating "predator-friendly hunting grounds," and Russia finally pulling the plug on WhatsApp, the internet is looking more like a digital dumpster fire than ever. Add in Discord leaking 70,000 government IDs, OpenAI shoving ads into ChatGPT while safety researchers flee the building like it's on fire, and a "cognitive debt" crisis eroding our ability to think, and you've got a recipe for a tech-induced psychosis that even crypto-funded human trafficking can't outpace.In MEDIA CANDY, we're wondering about the soft-core porn intro in the latest Star Trek: Starfleet Academy while Apple buys the total rights to Severance for seventy million dollars—because in-house production is the only way to keep those ballooning budgets under control. Super Bowl trailer season gave us a glimpse of The Mandalorian and Grogu and a Project Hail Mary teaser, while Babylon 5 has finally landed on YouTube for free, proving that even 90s serialized sci-fi eventually finds its way to the clearance bin.Over in APPS & DOODADS, Meta Quest is nagging us for our birthdays like a needy relative, while Roblox had to scrub a mass-shooting simulator—because "AI plus human safety teams" is apparently just code for "we missed it until it hit the forums." Ring's Super Bowl ad for "Search Party" accidentally terrified everyone by revealing a mass surveillance network for pets that's a slippery slope toward a police state, and Waymo is now paying DoorDashers ten bucks just to walk over and close the car doors that autonomous tech still can't figure out.Wrapping up with THE DARK SIDE WITH DAVE, we dive into the Mandalorian Hasbro reveal where Sigourney Weaver's action figure comes with no accessories because her existence is enough of a flex. We explore the grim reality of "RentAHuman," where humans are paid pittance to pretend AI agents are actually doing work, and look at "Trash Talk Audio," which sells a $125 microphone made out of a literal old telephone for that authentic Gen-X "get off the line, I'm expecting a call" aesthetic. From Marcia Lucas finally venting about the prequels and a rare book catalog specifically for our aging generation, we're reminded that while the future is a chaotic mess of "GeoSpy" AI and corporate reshuffling at Disney, at least we still have our cynical memories and some free versions of Roller Coaster Tycoon to keep us from losing it completely.Sponsors:CleanMyMac - Get Tidy Today!

This is why we can't have nice things.On today's daily comedy show chaos, the crew relives their own fake ID disasters (Sri Lankan licenses included), breaks down why Miley Cyrus is the early favorite for the next Super Bowl halftime show in LA, and debates whether Jelly Roll, Taylor Swift, or Post Malone would absolutely break the internet.Then things get serious-ish as a new “forensic report” tries to reopen the Kurt Cobain case with fresh conspiracy fuel. Is it legit? Is it TikTok detectives doing TikTok detective things? The Rizz and the gang have thoughts.We also hit:Gene Simmons vs. hip-hop in the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame (again

A dive bar in Philly just raised its age limit to 25 after college kids rolled in with fake IDs so advanced they passed scanners… including one absolute legend who used Benjamin Franklin as his photo and listed his address as the Liberty Bell. This is why we can't have nice things. On today's funny show, the Rizz and the gang relive their own fake ID disasters (yes, Sri Lankan licenses were involved), and debate whether that kid is a criminal mastermind or the future mayor of Philadelphia.Then we shift into full-blown pop culture chaos: Miley Cyrus is already an early favorite for the next Super Bowl halftime show in LA, but would Jelly Roll, Taylor Swift, or Post Malone completely break the internet? We argue. Loudly. As usual.And because this daily comedy chaos refuses to stay in one lane, we also break down:A new “forensic report” trying to reopen the Kurt Cobain case (TikTok detectives… please sit down)Gene Simmons vs. hip-hop in the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame (again

Joe Concha is at war with woke and taking no prisoners. In this episode, Joe roasts the theatrics on Capitol Hill, exposing the "insane" questions Democrats ask just to get on TV. He dismantles the Left's hypocrisy on Voter ID—from Senator Ossoff requiring IDs at rallies to Elizabeth Warren's lectures. Plus, we cover the booming "Trump economy," the shrinking federal workforce, and why everyday Americans are celebrating the "Big Beautiful Bill" and no taxes on overtime.

Bryan McClain discusses his background in technology liaising with the Military-Industrial-Complex at a military college. He recounts how his professional background in computer science and exposure to government censorship regarding WikiLeaks led him to investigate geopolitical propaganda and conspiracy theories. McClain explores the rise of technocracy, warning that society is being pushed toward a global panopticon through AI, digital IDs, and the replacement of personal hardware with controlled edge devices. McClain characterizes current events as a massive psychological operation designed to distract the public while foundational liberties are replaced by a digital control system.

David Skripac challenges the concept of a multipolar world order. Skripac argues that global power is actually structured as a multi-pillar system where major nations like China, Russia, and the United States all cooperate to advance a technocratic agenda. He traces the origins of this globalist vision back to Victorian-era British aristocracy, suggesting that modern institutions like WEF and the UN are continuing a centuries-old plan for world federation. The discussion highlights the rollout of biometric IDs, CBDCs, and AI-driven social credit systems as tools for a global scientific dictatorship. Ultimately, the perceived rivalry between East and West is a distraction from a unified effort to establish a digital gulag and eliminate individual sovereignty.
