VR1 - Welcome to Vapid Response Wednesday! Rather than explaining law in the news as we have for years on Rapid Response Friday, Thomas, Lydia, and Matt are going on the offensive in this live video series to respond and react to the stupidest takes that we can find--and we've got just the guy for our first pick! We begin with former Jeffrey Epstein defense attorney Alan Dershowitz's recent piece in the Wall Street Journal in which he literally claims that “there is nothing more to see here” on the Epstein case while filling in the facts of what we know from reliable reporting and court records. What is Dersh not telling us here about his own involvement with Epstein, the unbelievably corrupt federal non-prosecution agreement which he secured for his client in 2007, and all of the other many reasons that he might not be a trustworthy source on this question? We then take on one of Matt's all-time favorites: a well-known 1996 video presentation from far-right immigration restrictionist organization NumbersUSA in which founder Roy Beck takes the stage to set the Guinness world record for Biggest Strawman Made Entirely Out of Gumballs. “The Inside Scoop on Jeffrey Epstein,” Alan Dershowitz, The Wall Street Journal (7/15/2025) “Alan Dershowitz: Devil's Advocate,” Connie Bruck, The New Yorker (7/29/2019) “Immigration, World Poverty, and Gumballs,” NumbersUSA (originally distributed in 1996, uploaded to YouTube in 2010) Check out the OA Linktree for all the places to go and things to do!

ICE is expanding a controversial surveillance program. Today, our reporter shares how he learned about it, and what The Post uncovered about the company that stands to profit.Read more:Last month, U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement directed personnel to sharply increase the number of immigrants they shackle with GPS-enabled ankle monitors. ICE is targeting about 183,000 people with the expansion of the policy, all enrolled in the agency's Alternatives to Detention program. The move marks a significant expansion of a 20-year-old surveillance practice steeped in controversy. While tracking devices are cheaper and arguably more humane than detention, immigrants and their advocates have long criticized the government's use of the bulky black ankle bands, which they say are physically uncomfortable and impose a social stigma for the people wearing them, many of whom have no criminal record or history of missed court appointments.Today on “Post Reports,” corporate accountability reporter Douglas MacMillan joins Elahe Izadi to discuss why the agency is expanding this program and who stands to benefit.Today's show was produced by Rennie Svirnovskiy. It was edited by Maggie Penman and mixed by Sean Carter. Thanks to Silvia Foster-Frau, Tadeo Ruiz Sandoval, Sabby Robinson and Christine Armario.Subscribe to The Washington Post here.

The Trump administration has singled out Minnesota's largest newspaper for its coverage of immigration enforcement. A press release Tuesday accused the Minnesota Star Tribune of covering for people the White House called “criminal illegal immigrants.” The statement linked to social media posts from federal agencies that criticized Star Tribune immigration stories as well as an opinion column. For its part, the newspaper told MPR News, “we stand by our reporting and don't have any additional comment.” Jane Kirtley, director of the Silha Center for Media Ethics and Law and the University of Minnesota, joins Minnesota Now guest host Chris Farrell to talk about the White House statement and its press freedom implications.

www.commsolutionsmn.com- Our former president, Joe Biden, has had more and more questions rising to the surface about his use of the autopen during his term. He supposedly authorized hundreds of pardons, but they were all signed with the autopen. Did President Biden even authorize these pardons? We may never know. Congress is trying to gather more information about his medical state and his Doctor stonewalled the committee. We can't get any answers on anything. This is what leads to conspiracy theories. We can see that nothing is adding up and everyone acts as though we're the crazy ones. Enough already. The Big Beautiful Bill has finally passed. There were plenty of necessary things that had to get done. The Trump tax cuts were made permanent. The border got some much-needed help to become even more solid, despite already record low immigration numbers. They passed the no tax on tips, overtime, social security, and car loans. The bill does not sunset the provisions of the Green New Deal fast enough. It raises the debt ceiling and proposes new spending without cuts to offset it. The DOGE cuts were close on the heels, but thankfully have passed in the wake of the BBB. The Genius Act is also right on the heels of the BBB, creating a stable coin (a crypto currency that is linked to our dollar). We have to make sure that the Fed isn't able to program the currency to manage the economy and our ability to buy and sell.
Washington Apple Commission president, Michael Schadler says what looks to be a pretty productive harvest is quickly creeping up on us.

1. ICE Arrests in Houston U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) arrested 214 illegal aliens in the Houston, Texas area over a six-month period. All individuals were charged or convicted of sex offenses involving minors. This number exceeds the total arrests for similar offenses in the entire previous fiscal year (211 arrests). The arrests are attributed to a multi-agency targeting initiative launched under the Trump administration, aimed at removing “the worst of the worst” criminal aliens. Notable Arrests Highlighted Jesus Coutirez (67, Mexico): Convicted of aggravated sexual assault of a child; deported. George Zebra (48, Mexico): Convicted of multiple child sex offenses; deported. Manuel Antonio Castro (37, El Salvador): Convicted of sexual assault of a minor; in custody pending deportation. Jose Mesa (40, Mexico): Convicted of theft and sexual assault of a child; deported. Sergio Rolando (45, Mexico): Convicted of DWI and aggravated sexual assault of a child; deported. Agencies Involved ICE collaborated with multiple federal and local agencies including: FBI ATF DEA U.S. Customs and Border Protection U.S. Marshals Diplomatic Security Services 2. Criticism of Government Programs The latter part of the document shifts to a political critique of past Democratic administrations, particularly: The “Obama phone” program (Lifeline), which provided subsidized phones to low-income individuals. Allegations of fraud and abuse in the program, including a case where a Florida CEO was sentenced to prison and fined $128 million for defrauding the government. The piece connects this to broader claims of government waste and corruption, especially under President Obama. Please Hit Subscribe to this podcast Right Now.

If it's customary, it's probably not happening in this Justice Department. Starting with the latest from the Epstein controversy, Andrew and Mary unpack what to make of the two days Deputy Attorney General Todd Blanche spent interviewing Ghislaine Maxwell. This, after a Florida judge denied the release of Epstein grand jury transcripts last Wednesday.And in immigration related news, three decisions came through in the Kilmar Abrego Garcia saga, just as the first claim is filed against the U.S. over one man's deportation to El Salvador without due process. Then, in an eye-popping move, Attorney General Pam Bondi's office filed a misconduct complaint against Judge James Boasberg for “making improper public comments” about the President and his administration. And before wrapping up this week, Mary and Andrew give some context to the former J6 prosecutor who's suing the administration over his abrupt firing.Further Reading: Here is the misconduct complaint filed against Judge Boasberg: Complaint Against United States District Court Chief Judge James E.

As the Trump administration ramps up its violent immigration raids around the country, increasingly targeting immigrants with no criminal record, and racially profiling Latinos to meet arrest quotas, immigrant communities in Baltimore and beyond are living in terror.

The LAW has gotten a bad wrap lately. In the USA and West in general the law is based on biblical principles. The concept of lawlessness or the “lawless one” is Satan. He is the instigator of rebellion against God and God's law and authority. Today, I am going to show you that the law is good when used rightly but a weapon for evil when used in a manipulative, evil, untruthful and unbiblical way. It's time we get back to a biblical understanding and application of the Law in America and in Europe. LET'S GET STARTED.WE INVITE YOU TO JOIN OUR COMMUNITY AT: STEVENGAROFALO.COM2 THESSALONIANS SAYS: "7 For the mystery of lawlessness is already at work. Only he who now restrains it will do so until he is out of the way.8 And then the lawless one will be revealed, whom the Lord Jesus will kill with the breath of his mouth and bring to nothing by the appearance of his coming. 9 The coming of the lawless one is by the activity of Satan with all power and false signs and wonders, 10 and with all wicked deception for those who are perishing, because they refused to love the truth and so be saved. 11 Therefore God sends them a strong delusion, so that they may believe what is false, 12 in order that all may be condemned who did not believe the truth but had pleasure in unrighteousness.” (2 Thessalonians 2:7-12)Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/reason-for-truth--2774396/support.

Comme promis pendant sa campagne, le président Donald Trump a mis fin au statut de protection temporaire, le TPS, pour les Honduriens et les Nicaraguayens vivant aux États-Unis. Les autorités honduriennes, elles, se préparent déjà depuis le mois de janvier 2025 à accueillir et prendre en charge les migrants expulsés. Un reportage de Alice Campaignolle. Toutes les semaines, des migrants expulsés des États-Unis débarquent à l'aéroport de San Pedro Sula, dans le nord du Honduras. Dès leur arrivée, ils sont pris en charge par un centre d'accueil, dirigé par la sœur Idalina Borguignon. Un parcours bien rodé les attend : café, nourriture, examens médicaux, soutien psychologique, démarches administratives. Beaucoup témoignent de la peur et des mauvais traitements subis aux États-Unis, où, selon eux, « le rêve américain est terminé » depuis l'arrivée de Donald Trump. Parmi eux, Jerry, expulsé après deux tentatives de passage par la frontière, espérait retrouver son jeune fils soigné aux États-Unis. Il renonce temporairement à repartir et prévoit de se réinstaller dans son pays. Mais une fois revenus, ces Honduriens doivent repartir de zéro dans un pays où les opportunités restent rares et la violence omniprésente. Certains enfants de retour ne parlent même plus espagnol. Le profil des expulsés a aussi évolué : il s'agit désormais majoritairement de personnes établies de longue date aux États-Unis. Haïti se prépare aussi au retour des migrants en provenance des Etats-Unis C'est à la Une de l'agence Alterpresse et nous en parlons avec son directeur Gotson Pierre : Le ministère de la Justice haïtien a adopté un « protocole pour le traitement des dossiers des Haïtiens déportés ou extradés pour crimes financiers ou liens avec des groupes criminels ou terroristes ». Cette mesure « répond aux nouvelles décisions des autorités américaines visant l'arrestation et l'expulsion de ressortissants haïtiens impliqués dans ce type de délits ». Une manière de montrer, précise Gotson Pierre, que le gouvernement haïtien est prêt à coopérer pleinement avec les autorités américaines dans le domaine des expulsions. Autre sujet à la Une d'Alterpresse : l'enquête sur l'assassinat du président Jovenel Moïse, tué le 7 juillet 2021, est-elle en train de s'enliser dans une impasse judiciaire ? Plus d'une semaine après la fin des auditions en appel des accusés, tous les regards se tournent vers la cour d'appel de Port-au-Prince, dont la décision est désormais très attendue, selon le site d'information. Ce verdict pourrait représenter un tournant dans ce dossier aussi sensible que complexe. Mais les lenteurs de la procédure, les retards accumulés et certaines absences-clés nourrissent la crainte d'un nouveau blocage judiciaire. Colombie : Un verdict historique qui pourrait influencer la campagne présidentielle L'ancien président Álvaro Uribe a été reconnu coupable d'avoir tenté de faire pression sur un témoin, pour éviter d'être associé aux milices d'extrême droite. Le journal El Espectador parle d'un verdict historique et salue le travail de la justice. Il faut désormais, écrit-il, reconnaître la légitimité du jugement et rejeter fermement les voix qui, sans fondement, cherchent à le présenter comme une persécution politique. Le quotidien reconnaît que ce procès a suscité des passions. Juger une figure politique aussi influente qu'Álvaro Uribe entraîne inévitablement des lectures biaisées, selon les appartenances politiques. Mais rien, selon El Espectador, ne permet de conclure que la juge ait agi en dehors du droit. En tout cas, à moins d'un an de la prochaine présidentielle, ce jugement aura forcément un impact politique. D'après El Heraldo, il est indéniable que cette sentence contre le chef naturel du parti conservateur Centre démocratique, le leader de droite le plus influent des dernières décennies, va bouleverser les rapports de force de la campagne électorale. Selon le journal, les positions des uns et des autres risquent de se radicaliser. On continuera à parler de persécution judiciaire, de politisation de la justice ou encore de judiciarisation de la politique, ce qui risque d'alimenter encore davantage la polarisation et la mobilisation sociale. Pour le journal El Tiempo, la droite pourrait exploiter le rejet du verdict et l'impopularité de l'actuel président de gauche Gustavo Petro pour tenter de regagner du terrain. Mais l'incertitude demeure : Álvaro Uribe va-t-il se retirer de la vie politique ou au contraire intensifier son activité en vue de 2026 ? Le Brésil tente d'éviter des surtaxes commerciales Pour le gouvernement brésilien, c'est une course contre la montre pour tenter d'éviter la hausse des droits de douane décidée par le président américain Donald Trump. 50% supplémentaires à partir du 1er août 2025, donc vendredi prochain. Brasilia est en négociation intense avec les autorités américaines, selon Folha de São Paulo. Objectif, selon Carta Capital : exclure de cette surtaxe certains produits stratégiques, comme les aliments ou les avions afin d'atténuer les impacts d'une mesure qui pourrait toucher de plein fouet les secteurs industriels et agroalimentaires. Mais le problème, c'est que Washington refuse de négocier avec Brasilia, alors même qu'il vient de conclure une série d'accords avec l'Union européenne ou le Japon. Donald Trump reste inflexible. Et impose comme condition — jugée inacceptable et absurde par Folha de Sao Paulo — l'abandon du procès contre Jair Bolsonaro, l'ancien président, poursuivi pour tentative de coup d'État contre les institutions démocratiques. Au Mexique, de plus en plus de corps mutilés retrouvés dans les rivières du Chiapas C'est un reportage à lire dans El País. Dans le sud du Mexique, Walter González, un pêcheur de 54 ans, est devenu malgré lui un sauveteur informel de cadavres. Depuis sept ans, il repêche les corps abandonnés dans les rivières du Chiapas, à la frontière avec le Guatemala. Ces dernières semaines, il a été témoin d'une recrudescence de violence extrême liée au crime organisé. Des corps ligotés, mutilés, parfois sans tête, refont surface dans les rivières Suchiate et Cahoacán. Face à l'inaction ou à l'indifférence des autorités, Walter et ses compagnons enterrent parfois eux-mêmes les restes humains, par respect pour les victimes. Cette vague de violence intervient alors que les autorités locales se félicitent des progrès en matière de sécurité. Mais en réalité, les affrontements entre groupes criminels, pour le contrôle du trafic de migrants et des extorsions, ont fortement augmenté depuis mai dernier.
