Have you ever had a queasy feeling, as an examining lawyer is explaining the so-called ground rules for the deposition with your witness, that something about the instructions was amiss? But you weren't quite sure what to say - and didn't really know whether or how to object? Instructions like, "Can we agree that if you answer a question, it means you understood it?", and "Will you agree to limit your testimony to actual facts you personally know to be true, and not answer based on speculation or opinion?" can box your client in, cause them to omit important information, and do grave damage at later evidentiary hearings or trials. In this episode, Jim Garrity explains how these kinds of instructions may be improper and how to articulate your objections. It's a definite don't-miss.
Newt talks with Elle Minarik, from the Paragon Health Institute, about their new report, “The Persistent Obamacare Enrollment Fraud” which details the widespread fraud and improper enrollment in Affordable Care Act (ACA) exchange plans, driven by enhanced federal subsidies, weak verification systems, and misaligned incentives for insurers and intermediaries. Paragon Health Institute’s analysis compares Census data on people with incomes between 100–150% of the federal poverty level to the number of highly subsidized enrollees, estimating that 6.2 million people are enrolled in heavily subsidized plans despite not having incomes in that range. They project about $25 billion per year in improper Obamacare enrollment by 2026, with at least $75 billion over the last three years, and note that in one year alone $40 billion in federal payments went to insurers for “zero-claim” enrollees who never used their coverage. Improper enrollment is highly concentrated in non–Medicaid expansion states, especially Florida and Texas, which together account for 63% of projected improper enrollees in 2026; five states including Florida, Texas, Georgia, South Carolina, and North Carolina account for 78%.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Last week while talking about all the different types of shipping containers I mentioned strapping and banding, closing up and securing D containers, and our loads. We had a few people write in asking if I could explain banding. A couple of listeners took strapping as securing the load in the trailer. So today I thought we'd walk through not only strapping and banding, but also the more common things we use for securing our loads. I'm Marty and I thank you for stopping in for another episode of Warehouse and Operations as a Career. Ok, so the two most common types of strapping are, steel strapping, which, in many instances, are referred to as Metal Banding, and then we have the plastic strapping, which can be comprised of Polypropylene or Polyester. Each has its own purpose, advantages, weaknesses, and safety concerns. And trust me, if you've ever had a steel band snap beside your face or watched a poorly strapped pallet explode in a trailer, you develop a lot of respect for all three! At its core, banding is about securing items for transportation, stabilizing product, preventing shifting, maintaining pallet integrity, and of course reducing product damage, and increasing safety. Think about what all freight goes through, a forklift or pallet jack running it through the warehouse, a trailer bouncing around on the roads and over potholes, rail transportation, ocean movement, temperature changes, stretch wrap tension and weight shifts during turns and braking. So, lets start with steel strapping or metal banding. Steel strapping is typically used for heavy industrial products, steel coils, lumber, brick and block, pipe, building materials, those kinds of things. Steel is chosen because it has very high tensile strength, doesn’t stretch much if at all and has excellent holding power. When a load absolutely cannot shift, steel often wins. But it doesn’t come without limitations and concerns. Steel banding is dangerous. A couple of concerns are, number 1, is snap back. This is probably the biggest danger. When tension is released incorrectly, steel can whip back violently. And I mean violently. That band becomes a razor-sharp spring under pressure. Injuries can include facial cuts, eye injuries, fingers and deep cuts to our arms. Some injuries could even require surgery. Early on in my banding adventures, I had tightened a band on a d container filled with heavy meter parts. I had used the tension ratchet to tighten it pretty tight on the pallet. While getting my crimping tool positioned it snapped at a corner post. Ever since that moment I give strapping and banding the respect it deserves! And number 2 is rust. Steel can rust in humid conditions, outdoor storage areas, and refrigerated environments. Rust weakens the strap over time. And the 3rd concern is the weight. Steel is heavier than plastic. That can mean higher shipping costs and more difficult handling. And lastly, product damage. Steel bands can crush or damage softer freight. Especially things like cardboard, consumer goods, appliances, food packaging. Now let's talk about the most common strapping in today's warehouse world. Plastic banding. There are two major types Polypropylene, used for light duty pallets, cartons, retail shipments, newspaper bundles and such. And then we have polyester, used for heavier pallets, beverage loads, and many applications that were once dominated by the steel strapping. Polyester or PET is the stronger version and has replaced steel in many operations. Some of the advantages of plastic strapping? Well, there safer than steel. This is a huge reason facilities prefer plastic now. Plastic can certainly still hurt someone, but it generally does not whip with the same deadly force as steel. Less severe recoil. Less sharp edges. Still dangerous, but safer. And it's lightweight. Plastic is easier to carry, use, store, and dispose of. And it’s a little more flexible to work with. Plastic stretches slightly. That's actually beneficial for loads that shift naturally, settle during transportation, and expand or contract with temperature. Think of my watermelon example being packed in d containers last week. And another thing is plastic does not rust. This makes it useful in those cooler environments, in freezer operations and outdoor storage. Oh, and plastic is usually cheaper than steel. And in today's operations, cost matters. But plastic isn't perfect either. Its strength is lower, even the PET or polyester strapping. Very heavy freight can stretch and snap plastic, allowing a shift during transport. And it can be more heat sensitive. Extreme heat can weaken plastic. Think of a hot trailer in Texas during August? Let’s see, what else on banding. Oh, I want to mention how banding can be applied several ways. I'm most experienced using the manual tools. Hand tensioners, crimper sleeves and crimpers. Probably more common today are the battery tools. These tools adjust the tension, the seal, and cut automatically. A Huge productivity improvement. But also dangerous if improperly used. And then you have the large automatic banding machines. They may be used in distribution centers, manufacturing plants, and production facilities. Loads pass through automated arches that apply straps quickly and consistently. They're great for high volume, consistency, and speed. All of these, everything I've mentioned can be dangerous. Some common safety mistakes are standing directly in front of a tensioned strap. Improper cutting. Associates sometimes cut steel banding without controlling the tension. That strap explodes outward. And we should never use damaged strapping. A kinked strap is a weakened strap. And never reuse bent steel, frayed plastic, or cracked seals. Oh, and always use edge protectors. Edge protectors prevent product crushing and helps prevent load shifting. Skipping them can and will causes failures. And another biggie for me is too much tension. You're going to crush cartons, damage packaging, and, as we've learned, it's just not safe, or even useful. Wither you're operating the bander, any type of bander, or training or assigning associates to work with banding, we should always wear the proper ppe we've been assigned to use. Our safety glasses, cut resistant gloves, even face shields in heavy steel applications, and then long sleeves in some environments. So, my thoughts on steel vs plastic. I don't think one is universally “better.” I think the correct question is what type of freight are we securing, and why are we securing it? Because really the freight determines the strapping. Here's what I really think the takeaway is. Banding is one of those warehouse tasks people underestimate. It looks simple. But it combines stored energy, sometimes heavy freight, sharp materials, and human behavior. And that combination can become dangerous quickly. A properly strapped pallet travels safely across the country. A poorly strapped pallet becomes a workplace accident waiting to happen. And just like everything else in warehousing, the little things matter. The associate applying that final band may be the last person protecting the freight, the driver, the receiver, and the customer. Ok, talking about how we use strapping to secure loads made me think of a few other tools, probably more common tools, we use every day to help us secure the loads. Let’s talk about a few of those real quick. First up bulkheads. Bulkheads are used to separate and secure product areas within a trailer. They create a barrier that prevents freight from shifting forward or backward during transportation. You'll see solid bulkheads or ridged dividers used in things like grocery or food distribution to keep the freezer and cooler areas at temperature and the freight separated. Kind of creating temperature controlled vaults or compartments in the trailer. Then we have Bubble Bulkheads or Inflatable Bulkheads. These are pretty cool because they function almost like giant airbags. They’re placed in empty spaces between freight sections and inflated. Some advantages they bring to the table are how they are lightweight, flexible, and can fill any odd-shaped spaces. Of course there are some limitations. They can puncture. They'll require proper inflation, and there not always suitable for heavy shifting loads. Next up the Cardboard Bulkheads. Sometimes the simplest solutions are the most effective. These are heavy corrugated dividers used to separate lighter products. Sometimes there used to identify different stops for the driver too. There inexpensive, disposable, and lightweight. But they have limited strength, they can crush under heavier pressure, and they can present some moisture concerns. And then anyone that’s ever looked down the walls of many trailers, you’ve probably noticed those long metal rails with repeating slots. Those are E-tracks. E-tracks are mounted horizontally or vertically and create attachment points for securing freight. The straps that clip into them are called E-straps. These things are great and allow for fast installation, and they are easily adjustable, they allow for multiple anchor points, and they are reusable, for like ever! They can be used for securing almost any type of freight. Appliances, furniture, palletized freight, and mixed loads. In distribution there great to secure the wall of freight as we stack down the deliveries. The mistake people sometimes make is thinking it’s clipped in, so we’re done. Well not exactly. The e straps still require proper tension and placement. A loose strap isn’t securing anything. It’s just decorating the trailer wall! One of my personal favorites as a driver is the load bar. Load bars are one of those tools many people have seen but never really thought much about. They’re adjustable bars placed horizontally between trailer walls. They apply pressure and help keep freight from moving or falling forward towards us or the back door. There fast and easy to setup, reusable, and excellent for partial loads. Oh, and I should probably mention the butterfly load bar. Butterfly load bars work like the pole or regular roll bar but use wider stabilizing ends or wing-like designs that spread pressure over larger areas. These create increased contact area, better load stability, and reduced pressure damage. These are great for the route and delivery drivers. The customer never sees the banded or strapped d container or banded pallet, the load bar, the E-strap, the bulkhead, or any of the other precautions us light industrial professionals have taken to protect their products. They only see the result when the trailer door opens and is delivered without damages. Our freight protection tools and our efforts may never get the recognition, but they’re often the reason the product arrives looking exactly like it did when it left our warehouse. That’s ownership in my opinion! Speaking of ownership, I've got to get back to work now myself. I hope you enjoyed todays topic, if so please tell a friend about us. Y'all be safe out there this week and always put safety first.
EPISODE SUMMARY A stunning new report claims the federal government may have lost more than $3 trillion to fraud and improper payments since 2003 — and the Trump administration says that number could actually be much higher. Tara and Lee break down the jaw-dropping welfare and Medicare overpayment scandal, why DOGE and JD Vance are aggressively auditing decades of federal spending, and how COVID-era policy changes allegedly supercharged abuse in blue states.

Takeaways from this study Own harm even when it wasn't intentional. Leviticus 5 shows that unknown or unintended sin still damages relationships. When you realize harm has occurred, you take responsibility and pursue repair, not excuses. Practice regular, concrete confession. Confession is not just “between me and God.” James 5:16 and Matthew 18 call for honest confession to trusted, mature believers so that healing can begin. Treat hard conversations as a מצוַה mitzvah (command).Confronting sin or hurt in a brother or sister is not optional. Matthew 18 frames it as obedience to God with the goal of restoration, not as a personal preference. Aim for תשוּבָה teshuvah, not punishment. The pattern from Leviticus, Yom Kippur, and 1Corinthians/2Corinthians shows that God's goal is turning and restoration, not simply “winning” a conflict or pushing people away. Repair includes restitution where possible. The אָשָׁם 'asham (guilt offering) reminds us that saying “sorry” is often not enough. When you can, make practical restitution — time, money, reputation, or effort to rebuild trust. Guard your tongue as seriously as any other sin. לָשׁוֹן הָרַע lashon hara‘ (harmful speech, gossip) can quietly destroy reputations and relationships, regardless of our intent. Before you share something about someone with someone else, ask: “Will this heal, or will this wound?” Stay rooted in community and prayer. James 5 and Hebrews 10 assume believers walking together — confessing, praying, and encouraging. Isolation makes sin easier to hide and harder to heal; intentional fellowship makes repentance and restoration more likely. The Torah offerings to the work of the Messiah and to practical congregational life. The goal is to show that God does not ignore hidden failure. Instead, He exposes, forgives, and restores. He also commands His people to imitate that pattern with one another. Hidden and unknown guilt Leviticus 5 addresses sins that are not immediately obvious. They may be hidden, unknown, or unintended, but they still matter. The chapter deals with several situations (Leviticus 5:1–13, 15–19): First, it mentions a person who hears a public adjuration to testify and remains silent (Leviticus 5:1). Silence in the face of known truth incurs guilt. Second, it covers ritual impurity that is not recognized until later (Leviticus 5:2–3). Third, it addresses rash oaths, made without careful thought (Leviticus 5:4). When the person later becomes aware of the sin, “he shall confess that in which he has sinned” (Leviticus 5:5 NASB95). Awareness triggers responsibility. Confession must follow. Ignorance does not cancel harm. Damage to relationships, whether with God or people, remains real. Therefore, repair is not optional. Once a person realizes that a wrong has occurred, he must seek to set it right. Confession and the discipline of return Leviticus 5 is part of a broader biblical call to תְּשׁוּבָה teshuvah (turning, repentance). The root שׁוּב shuv means “to turn” or “return.” Repentance involves turning from a destructive path and returning to God's way. This connects with Apostle Ya’akov’s teaching that knowing the good and refusing to do it is sin (cf. James 4:17). When someone becomes aware of sin, silence or passivity deepens the guilt. Instead, Scripture calls for an active response. Confession in the Bible often uses the Greek verb ὁμολογέω homologeō (to confess, agree). It appears in James 5:16: “Therefore, confess your sins to one another, and pray for one another so that you may be healed” (NASB95). Confession means agreeing with God's verdict about the act. It also means bringing that truth into community, not hiding it in isolation. Congregational repair Matthew 18 is a “bedrock” passage for congregational repair. Messiah Yeshua (Christ Jesus) outlines a path for dealing with sin between believers (Matthew 18:15–17). If a brother sins, one goes to him in private (Matthew 18:15). If he listens, the relationship is restored. If not, one or two spiritually mature believers to join as witnesses (Matthew 18:16). If he still refuses, the matter goes before the wider ἐκκλησία ekklēsia (assembly) (Matthew 18:17). Persistent refusal may lead to distancing the person from the congregation for a time. These confrontations are not optional. They are מִצְוֹת mitzvot (commandments). They are unpleasant, but they form part of faithful obedience. The aim is not punishment. The aim is restoration and תְּשׁוּבָה teshuvah. Restoration, not destruction We see an example of confrontation and restoration in action from Paul’s two surviving letters to the congregation in the cosmopolitan Greek city of Corinth. In 1Corinthians 5, Paul confronts a case of extreme sexual immorality. He insists that such behavior cannot continue among those who represent the holy God. However, the final goal is not permanent exclusion. In 2Corinthians 2:6–8, Paul speaks about restoring a repentant offender. He urges the community to forgive and comfort, so the person is not overwhelmed by sorrow. This is a biblical pattern. Correction must point toward healing, not shaming for its own sake. The Hebrew term used for guilt offering, אָשָׁם 'asham (guilt), has a verbal form that can sound like “ashamed” in English. While this is a memory aid, it’s not a linguistic link. Yet the image helps: guilt that is acknowledged and addressed can move from shame to restoration. God's provision for economic situations in the offerings Leviticus 5 also shows sensitivity to economic status. Different offerings match different financial capacities (Leviticus 5:6–13). A female sheep or goat for those with standard means. Two turtledoves or pigeons for the poor. A measure of fine flour for the very poor. This scaling shows that God does not restrict forgiveness to the wealthy. He provides a path of repair for everyone. We see in Luke 2:22–24, where מִרְיָם Miryam (Mary) and יוֹסֵף Yosef (Joseph) offer birds for the Torah purification offering for a woman after Yeshua's birth. This offering matches the provision for the poor. It indicates their economic status and shows continuity between Torah practice and the life of Yeshua's family. ‘Clean,’ ‘unclean’ and the lesson behind the food laws Leviticus 5 connects with wider purity laws. טָמֵא tamé (ritually unfit, often “unclean”) and טָהוֹר tahor (fit, “clean”). These categories affect whether a person may approach the Sanctuary (Leviticus 5:2–3). We see these two words in Leviticus 11 with the food laws. God sets out a kind of “lifelong fast.” His people may eat some animals, but not others. The purpose goes beyond diet. Leviticus 11:44–45 emphasizes holiness: “Be holy, for I am holy” (NASB 1995). If people treat these commands only as mechanical rules, they miss the point. The rules are signs pointing to a larger lifestyle of holiness (recognizing that God’s ways are largely separate from the degraded behaviors of the world). The food laws remind the people that common influences can contaminate their distinct calling. The heart of fasting In Isaiah 58, we see a correction about the Yom Kippur (Day of Atonement) fast. Leviticus 16 commands the people to afflict or humble themselves (עִנָּה ‘inah, from עָנָה ‘anah) on Yom Kippur (Leviticus 16:29–31). This includes fasting from food and water. However, Isaiah 58 confronts a shallow fast. The people complain that God does not notice their fasting (Isaiah 58:3). God responds that their fast lacks justice and mercy. He describes the fast He chooses: to loose bonds of wickedness, to care for the oppressed, the widow, the orphan, and the stranger (Isaiah 58:6–7). A person can “oppress” himself by fasting and yet still oppress others. In that case, the ritual misses its purpose of transformation. True humbling aims to draw closer to God's heart and to love others. Sin “with a high hand” Numbers 15 provides a parallel and expansion to Leviticus 4–5.It describes unintentional sins and their offerings (Numbers 15:22–29). But it also describes deliberate sins. The key phrase is בְּיָד רָמָה b'yad ramah (with a high hand) (Numbers 15:30). This idiom describes arrogant, defiant sin. It corresponds to the category עָוֹן avon (iniquity). Such sin involves not only missing the mark, but resisting God's authority. Numbers 15:30–31 states that the person who acts with a high hand despises the word of the LORD. He shall be cut off from his people. Yom Kippur and the covering of iniquity This as a severe picture. Yet it also points to the special role of the Day of Atonement in covering iniquity — as well as sin (an error) and transgression (more willful). Leviticus 16 describes Yom Kippur, the Day of Atonement.Two goats stand at the center of the ritual (Leviticus 16:7–10).One goat is “for the LORD.” Its blood covers the sanctuary and the people's sins, transgressions, and iniquities (Leviticus 16:15–19).The other goat bears the iniquities into the wilderness (Leviticus 16:20–22). This is God's answer even to such an affront and breach of relationship as עָוֹן avon (iniquity). A person who had sinned with a high hand and been cut off still has a path back. He must humble himself deeply on Yom Kippur. He must recognize that without this day he would remain excluded. This pattern reveals God's desire for restoration. He takes sin seriously. Yet He provides a way for even the worst rebellion to be forgiven, if there is genuine תְּשׁוּבָה teshuvah. The offerings as patterns and the work of the Messiah The early chapters of Leviticus as a sequence of offerings: עֹלָה ‘olah (burnt/ascending offering) in Leviticus 1.It represents total consecration, fully consumed on the altar. מִנְחָה minchah (grain/tribute offering) in Leviticus 2.It expresses thanksgiving and dedication of daily provision. שְׁלָמִים shelamim (peace or well-being offerings) in Leviticus 3. They celebrate restored fellowship and contentment (שָׁלוֹם shalom). חַטָּאת ḥaṭṭat (sin/purification offering) in Leviticus 4–5.It focuses on purification from sin, especially unintentional sin. אָשָׁם 'asham (guilt/reparation offering) in Leviticus 5.It deals with guilt that requires restitution. These offerings act as patterns or shadows. They point beyond themselves. The Tabernacle and later the Temple follow the pattern shown to Moses on the mountain (Exodus 25:8–9, 40). They are not the ultimate reality. This points to the actual reality: the Messiah. In the Gospels, Yeshua is identified as the “Lamb of God who takes away the sin of the world” (John 1:29 NASB95). This combines themes of Passover (“Lamb of God”) and Yom Kippur (“takes away the sins of the world”). Passover emphasizes protection from wrath. The blood on the doorposts in Exodus 12 causes the destroyer to pass over (Exodus 12:7, 12–13). Yom Kippur emphasizes covering and removal of sins, transgressions, and iniquities (Leviticus 16:21–22). Taken together, these patterns explain Romans 8:1: “Therefore there is now no condemnation for those who are in Christ Jesus” (NASB95). In God's sight, the wrath has been turned away, and the guilt has been covered and removed. Access to God's presence through the Messiah Under the Torah, casual access to the Holy of Holies means death. Only the high priest could enter, only once a year, and only with blood (Leviticus 16:2–3, 34). Improper approach resulted in judgment, as in the case of Nadab and Abihu (Leviticus 10:1–3). The Letter to the Hebrews presents a mystery. Believers now have confidence to enter the holy place by the blood of Yeshua (Hebrews 10:19–22). The veil is no longer a barrier in the same way. The Messiah acts as a priest forever and opens the Way. This does not make God less holy. Instead, it shows that the Messiah has fully met the holiness standard. Those who trust in Him appear before God clothed in His righteousness, not their own. Confession, prayer and mutual support James 5:16 calls believers to confess sins to one another and to pray for one another. The goal is healing: “The effective prayer of a righteous man can accomplish much” (NASB95). This command assumes a living community. Believers do not walk alone. They speak truth to one another, share burdens, and intercede. Thus we see the importance of gathering together, echoing Hebrews 10:24–25. As trials increase, isolation becomes more dangerous. Community support helps believers continue toward the “finish line,” using the imagery of a race (cf. Hebrews 12:1–2; 1Corinthians 9:24). Speech, gossip and relational damage One practical application involves לָשׁוֹן הָרַע lashon hara‘ (evil tongue, harmful speech). Gossip can cause serious relational damage, even when the speaker did not intend harm. This fits the category of unintentional or unrecognized sin. Once harm becomes evident, the person must acknowledge it. He must seek forgiveness and make restitution where possible. Otherwise, small offenses can snowball into large divisions. This links back to Leviticus 5 and the need to address breaches early. It also aligns with Matthew 5:23–24, where a person must seek reconciliation with a brother before offering a gift at the altar. Community, intercession and global perspective We also have a broader view of community. Believers belong not only to a local assembly but also to a worldwide body. Prayer meetings that include intercession for persecuted believers in various nations reflect this reality. The picture is of a global family that shares one Messiah and one hope. As members suffer or struggle, others pray and support them.This expresses the unity described in passages like 1Corinthians 12:12–27. The hope of restoration To sum up, Scripture presents a coherent pattern: God exposes hidden guilt. He demands confession and repair. He provides offerings and, ultimately, the Messiah as the final answer to sin, transgression, and iniquity. Commands to confront, confess, and restore are not optional ideals. Yet their deepest motive is mercy. God desires teshuvah, a turning back, not destruction. God calls His people to live truthfully, repair relationships, walk in holiness, and trust in His appointed means of atonement. In that way, both individuals and communities move from guilt and brokenness toward healing, peace and restored fellowship with God and with one another. The post ‘I didn’t mean to hurt you’: What the Bible says about unintentional sin and relationship repair (Leviticus 5; Numbers 15; James 5; Matthew 18) appeared first on Hallel Fellowship.

Electric toothbrushes come with a head that makes small circular movements automatically. Studies have shown that, for the same amount of brushing time, they can remove up to twice as much plaque as manual toothbrushes. They also help reduce the risk of gingivitis, gum inflammation, and bleeding. However, some electric toothbrushes can be too abrasive on sensitive or weakened teeth, as not all use the same technology. It also depends on how you use them. Improper brushing can lead to dental hypersensitivity and even tooth loosening. So what is the right brushing technique? How do you choose the right manual toothbrush? So does it really matter what type of toothbrush you use? In under 3 minutes, we answer your questions!

In early 2016, Virginia Giuffre, through her counsel, filed a motion seeking to compel Ghislaine Maxwell to produce documents that had been withheld based on objections and privilege claims deemed improper by the plaintiff. Giuffre's motion challenged Maxwell's broad assertions of attorney‑client privilege, work‑product doctrine, vagueness, overbreadth, and undue burden. The motion was accompanied by detailed declarations—most notably by attorney Sigrid S. McCawley—which laid out why many of Maxwell's objections appeared unjustified and why the requested materials were relevant and necessary for Giuffre's case.The court reviewed both the motion and Maxwell's opposition, which included memoranda of law and declarations defending her objections and maintaining that providing certain documents would violate privacy rights or exceed the scope of discovery. Ultimately, in a partially favorable ruling for Giuffre, the court granted the motion in part and denied it in part, indicating that while some objections were valid, Maxwell was required to produce additional documents where privilege claims were not properly supported.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:Giuffre v.

Episode 274- State Police RPO Cover-Up Also Available OnSearchable Podcast Transcript Gun Lawyer — Episode Transcript Gun Lawyer Transcript – Episode 274 SPEAKERS Teddy Nappen, Evan Nappen, Speaker 2 Evan Nappen 00:17 I’m Evan Nappen. Teddy Nappen 00:19 and I’m Teddy Nappen. Evan Nappen 00:21 And welcome to Gun Lawyer. So, our good friend, John Petrolino, who writes about many, many important topics, particularly as well concerning New Jersey, has an article that was in Bearing Arms. And I want to talk about what he’s raised here. The article’s title is “New Jersey State Police Tight Lipped Over Retired Police Permits”. (https://bearingarms.com/john-petrolino/2026/01/21/new-jersey-statepolice-tight-lipped-over-retired-police-permits-n1231288) So, what John has done is he’s used the New Jersey form of OPRA (Open Public Records Act), the Freedom of Information Act, asking the authorities in New Jersey for the number of permits issued to retired police officers. Evan Nappen 01:15 You may recall the then Attorney General Platkin did put up that dashboard and released the data of public statistics regarding carry permits, the number of permits issued. There’s been over 92,000 approved applications for carry permits in New Jersey, and of those approvals, 64,000 are non-expired permits. Now it’s interesting that the State puts out that data, but they don’t put out the data as to the RPO permits. The Retired Police Officer permits, and we want to find out how many folks carry that are not law enforcement, right? That are civilian. And let’s face it, Retired Police Officers are still civilians, even though they were formerly law enforcement. Originally carry was outside of being law enforcement and outside of New Jersey’s insane carry permit system back then, where you had to show “justifiable need”, which, as you may recall, meant showing of urgent necessity. This meant showing that a gun was necessary for you to defend yourself from death or serious bodily injury and that carrying a handgun was the only means that could do it. I mean, it was a standard that was so extreme that basically, if you’ve been shot and killed, you then qualified for a New Jersey carry permit. Evan Nappen 03:08 Now that went away thanks to the Bruen decision, and New Jersey jumped from less than 600 carry permits to now 64,000 valid permits and 92,000 valid, approved permits. But it does not include the RPOs. Now, RPOs had the ability to carry before Bruen, and during that time period when regular old civilians who weren’t retired law enforcement could not defend themselves with a firearm and carry in that manner, right? They were deemed to have to be victims instead of defenders. But now, for some reason, the State Police and such will not release the number of RPO permits. We’re not asking for names. John went forward here, and he didn’t ask for names. He didn’t ask for anything. He just wants to know how many? How many of the RPO permits are out there as well. This should be looked at in the aggregate with all the other carry permits that are out there, and yet that doesn’t happen. Page of 1 8 Evan Nappen 04:25 In December of 2025, John sent a request for the number of RPO permits, and it was denied. And the request was denied weirdly and strangely for reasons that just don’t make any sense. And I’m going to tell you. It makes you wonder, why is there a cover up? The reason they denied it, the reason the State Police have put in writing for the denial. Well, get a load of this. “Improper and Overbroad” was the main reason. Can you believe that the information is supposedly improper and overbroad? Why would wanting to know a statistical fact such as the number of RBO permits be considered overbroad? And why would it be considered in any way improper? It is strictly information. It is based on a record. It absolutely should be released. Evan Nappen 05:52 How come they are releasing the numbers for civilian carry permits, right? The 92,000. How come that’s not “improper and overbroad”? No, the Attorney General does it. Go ahead. Why? Tell me. Why do you think? Teddy Nappen 06:10 So, going back to because John also, if I recall, broke the story about denials where, what was it? Blacks were five times more likely to be denied to their carry. Evan Nappen 06:22 Yes, institutionalized racism. That exists in New Jersey. Teddy Nappen 06:31 So, add into the fact that you have the, well, here’s the trick. The Left have always been anti-police. That is a fact. They were the ones that wanted to defund the police. They were the ones for that. So, now we have the first factor of showing the absolute racism of the gun laws. But also the fact that they were supporting the only carry which, by the way, how much you want to bet they were all for the RPOs under all the Democrat Governors who allowed those carries to come into play. How much of that look, if it shows that there’s this massive amount of RPOs being issued. And because the Left are Marxists who absolutely hate police and hate law and order, this would make them look like absolute elitists and hypocrites. Evan Nappen 07:19 So, the fear is that, arguably, in the defund the police mentality, that if retired police are being armed, they don’t want any police armed, even if they’re retired, because of the perceived threat that they put out there that law enforcement creates toward minorities. In their view, not in my view. Not in my view. It’s the opposite. I mean, the fact is, they’re out there as protectors, defenders of the good people of our State. Every retired officer is somebody who’s not only armed, but also is experienced in armed defense, having served as a law enforcement officer. They’re a resource. They’re a positive benefit to our society. Yet, they’re probably scared of the politics. I mean, why else? What? There’s nothing about it that makes it “improper”. And it sure isn’t “overbroad”. It would be overbroad, maybe, if you want to know the name and address and Dox every carry RPO that’s out there. That’s not being requested. We just want the damn number. How many RPO carry permits? Teddy Nappen 08:41 Page of 2 8 It honestly reminds me, Dad, of that poster you had hung up. It was the joke where it shows if the Left could rewrite the Second Amendment. And I think, and I remember, you remember that. They crossed out, remember, they crossed out militia. And it says, like, military and police, employed police only. We’re kind of that logic where like, well, they’re not in the service, so why should they be armed? Not because there’s massive doxing websites, and that’s why ICE has to have their mask on for that exact reason. But. Evan Nappen 09:17 Exactly. Well, the fight is still ongoing and the question is raised. Why not just give us the number so we all know? And I would like to see a huge number of RPOs. I hope there’s lots of them out there. The more trained law-abiding folks that have firearms, the safer we are. And retired police are perfect in that regard. That’s exactly what we want to see. So, whatever their basis is, it just creates more of a conspiracy, and it just politicizes it so unnecessarily. It’s ridiculous. Release the number. Let us know. Let’s join in showing how many armed folks are out there. Maybe that’s another reason. They’re afraid that if that number, you know is even more, now, more and more people are carrying and suddenly the BITS argument they love to make right? Blood In The Streets. BITS. There’ll be blood in the streets with civilian carry, you know. No, it didn’t happen. And it’ll be the Wild West. It’s not the Wild West. And look at how many folks have carries when you combine the numbers. Maybe they’re afraid of that political aspect. But, you know, we have a right to know these numbers. It’s not a secret. It’s not improper. It’s not overbroad. Just let us know, and we deal with the facts. Evan Nappen 10:47 I also want to bring a couple very interesting things out that I’ve recently learned about. An important one here is the old “Bang or Bong – You can’t have both”. Well, shortly, at least a greater degree, you may be able to have both because President Trump, through his administration, folks, keep that in mind. Through the Trump administration, they have proposed, through ATF, revision of their regulation concerning the interpretation of what a “user of drugs” as a disqualifier, what it means. You know, for almost 30 years, ATF has said they treat even a single incident, a single past admission of marijuana use, or a failed drug test, or one misdemeanor marijuana conviction as evidence of a person being an unlawful user. They have now put forward an administrative reg that when it becomes finalized, which should be happening within the next few months, it will make it so that those things no longer will be deeming a person “an unlawful user”. And this should be of great help. Evan Nappen 12:25 From an article in AmmoLand, written by Dean Weingarten, which is entitled “ATF Finally Admits: One-time Drug Use Isn’t Grounds to Strip Gun Rights.” (https://www.ammoland.com/2026/01/atf-finally-admitsone-time-drug-use-isnt-grounds-to-strip-gun-rights/) It makes it really interesting here regarding that. In 2025, NICS denied 9,163 firearm transfers under the “unlawful user” category, okay? So, in other words, denials, denials of over 9,000 transfers, more than half of those denials, more than half, were single-incident drug inferences. Well, under this rule, those will no longer be denials. That’s over what? Four thousand people that will not be denied their gun rights, just in that one year, no less. Of people being denied over this nonsense. And furthermore, in this article, ATF admitted that 8,893 cases, it declined to investigate, prosecute, or retrieve firearms because of a single-drug incident. So, they’re denying individuals and not prosecuting. Yet, they’re using it as a base for denial. So, finally, we’re getting a reg of common sense that clears it up. Evan Nappen 14:05 Page of 3 8 And it even, to me, appears to go further. Now this may take a little bit more analysis, but in my reading of the reg, and I’m going to have to see how it pans out, it also talks about those that use drugs that are lawfully prescribed. That becomes an exemption. I’m going to be looking further into whether this reg also directly impacts individuals with a medical marijuana card. Because if it’s prescribed and it’s legal in the state and it’s by a lawful prescription, then maybe that, too, gets covered by this new regulation. It remains to be seen, but it sure seems like it. So, this is good. It progress in the right direction of helping protect our gun rights. And, of course, it’s happening under the Trump administration. It didn’t, this didn’t happen under, you know, the senile sock puppets for years. This is Trump, and yet it’s in the area of marijuana. I mean, oddly, it’s going to essentially remove what got Hunter Biden in trouble, you know. Now, of course, I don’t think he had a single individual use, but still. It’s that disqualifier that’s being addressed by the Trump administration. Evan Nappen 15:40 I also want to point out something that caught my attention, and I think it is just great when something illustrates the absurdity of the gun laws. As you know, we’re fighting over with the big, beautiful lawsuit with NFA over suppressors. Of course, there’s no more $200 tax, which is nice, and they have made it much more efficient online to be able to get federally registered through the National Firearm Act, when acquiring suppressors. And I appreciate the progress, but we all know that there shouldn’t be any NFA at all. It shouldn’t exist. There should be no registration of suppressors or silencers. And it’s so stupid the way silencers are regulated. And I just love this. Apparently, this fellow here, regarding the National Association for Gun Rights, registered a potato as a suppressor. That’s right, a potato. (https:// www.facebook.com/share/v/1Aadb9chUS/) It’s the classic potato silencer that they used to be, mythologically, I guess, accredited to the IRA even. A potato on the end of a gun will act as a suppressor, and to a certain degree, it does. So, he registered a potato, an actual potato, as a suppressor, and then proceeded to utilize it. The only problem with the potato silencer is it’s good for about one shot, and then you end up with a lot of mashed potatoes after you use it. But there you go. They did, in fact, register the potato as a silencer. Teddy Nappen 17:31 There’s a slang term for it, too it’s called a Paddy can. Evan Nappen 17:35 There you go. A Paddy can. Well, he registered a Paddy can. And you know, ATF, also, in the past, registered a shoelace as a machine gun, because you could wrap it around the trigger and the bolt. Then you could do a quasi bump fire deal with it. So, there is a bona fide, if you go on the internet, see a bona fide ATF registered shoelace as a machine gun. We have potatoes as silencers, and I think it illustrates just how stupid the NFA is. Evan Nappen 18:07 Hey, let me tell you about our friends at WeShoot. WeShoot, as you know, is a range where Teddy and I both shoot, and they have been lately featuring some biographies of their instructors. You see, WeShoot has fantastic instructors, and one of their instructors that they’ve taken a focus on is Todd Friedman.

Teddy Nappen 22:38 Well, as you know, Press Checks are always free. And I want to remind everyone that the Democrats and the Left are, in fact, the real racists. No matter. They do not care what bounds they have to do. They don’t care about what lines they have to cross. They hate you, and they want to take away your rights. You know. Evan Nappen 23:06 Well, Teddy, historically, historically the KKK were Southern Democrats. That was a KKK. The Democrats. Teddy Nappen 23:15 Yep, and apparently. Page of 5 8 Evan Nappen 23:16 Well, it hasn’t changed, apparently. Go ahead. Teddy Nappen 23:19 Well, even better, they’re getting back to their roots. We had previously discussed how the they tried to do that whole argument against Bruen and even citing to like, you know, all the racist laws that would deny blacks their rights to carry and ability to possess firearms. Well, sure enough, from The Daily Caller by Harold Hutchinson. Justice Jackson defends Jim Crow laws during Second Amendment case hearing. (https://dailycaller.com/2026/01/20/ketanji-brown-jackson-jim-crow-law-during-2a-case-argument/) If you have that on your bingo card today, you win. So. Evan Nappen 23:59 Your bingo card is Judge Jackson defends Jim Crow racist Black Codes. Teddy Nappen 24:05 Black Code. Specifically Black Codes. Yes, yes. So, this is about the Hawaii challenge. Remember, they’re trying to attack Bruen. And this is our opportunity to really strengthen and end that insanity. Evan Nappen 24:20 Your talking about the Wolford case. Teddy Nappen 24:20 Correct. Evan Nappen 24:22 About sensitive places. Which is very important. That can have great impact on New Jersey, too. Teddy Nappen 24:28 Oh, we’re all very too familiar about the various sensitive places in New Jersey. But this was the part that caught me. During the forum, where the justices are allowed to ask questions and probe the issues of the facts of the case of the law. So, Justice Jackson then turned and decided to go on and say. I just laugh every time I read it. So, I guess I really don’t understand your response to Justice Gorsuch on the Black Codes. I mean, I thought the Black Code, this is Jackson, were being offered under the Bruen test to determine the Constitutionality of this regulation, and that, because we have a test, and that asks us to look at the history and tradition, the fact that the Black Codes were at some point determined themselves unconstitutional, it doesn’t seem to me to be relevant to the assessment that Bruen is asking us for anyway. So, can you say more about that? So to. Evan Nappen 25:35 Do you believe this person is a justice? Teddy Nappen 25:40 Well, I can, I can believe it, because Biden said it himself. He was going to appoint a black woman and regardless of that. So, just take a step back though. Let’s unpack that line right there. It’s not relevant to the fact the laws were found unconstitutional, not relevant to the fact of the constitutionality of the Second Amendment and the and the fact that you are citing, and this is the war on Bruen they are Page of 6 8 making, where they try to say history, text and tradition. Where does history begin? Well, to the Left, apparently, the history begins in the 1860s where you have the various Black Codes and racist gun laws, but you know, to us with the, you know, traditionalists and go and have a little bit further knowledge of history, go back to the very foundation of our country and when the Second Amendment was born. And not only that, this shows you the degree that they hate us and hate guns and are willing to pursue a second amendment oppression agenda, even to the degree that they will utilize unconstitutional purely racist laws of the past to justify prohibitions now that are themselves we can show utilizing institutionalized racism in their enforcement, no less. I mean, they don’t care, as long as they can get the guns and take away the rights. So what if they have to be on the side of racism? That’s fine with them there. Teddy Nappen 27:28 Well, and here’s the reason why I pulled from The Trace where, you know, they absolutely loathe Bruen. This is why they hate it, and this is why they don’t care where length they have to go they cite in. This is from The Trace. (https://www.thetrace.org/projects/bruen-tracker-supreme-court-gun-laws/) 1100 plus. The number of people with felony convictions have used Bruen to challenge the ban on the possession of guns. So, in other words, people that were lawful possession and have unconstitutional laws currently putting them in jail? Oh, now there’s a hammer that is Bruen that can actually help them defend themselves and not be prosecuted. Amazing. Well. And it goes back to race, because blacks are six to one felons to whites, and what is the left pushing? Oh, the disqualifier of a felon, you are sure, because it gets a racial discrimination. It’s six to one again, always pushing the one side of their mouth, claiming to fight for civil rights. Teddy Nappen 28:37 And yet, when it really comes down to the truest of civil rights, they immediately sell it out to pursue a second amendment oppression agenda, yeah, and also the fact they highlight, they highlight this rate of 48% of Republican appointed judges have struck down various gun laws under Bruen, as opposed to the 13 Democrat appointees. So there is political bias for that, you where they’re actually applying the law versus them ignoring the Constitution. But you know, that’s a separate but this is something I want to highlight to everyone. The fact is, if the Left ever take power back, and James Carville has said this, they will pack the court. He said, we’re going to pack the court. We’re going to make a gonna make Puerto Rico a state like everything they can to maintain power. Teddy Nappen 29:30 What are they going to do when they pack the court? Go ahead and read the dissenting of Bruen. I pulled the line right here from buyers, which all of them agree with buyers on this. They refuse, when considering the SEC refuse to consider government interests and just and the challenge to gun regulations regarding the compelling interest to be, in our view, when the court interprets the Second Amendment, it is constitutionally proper and in often necessary. Necessary to consider the serious danger and consequences of gun violence that lead states to regulate when you when they consider gun laws, they have to factor in the gun violence. You know, the propaganda they promote, race manufacturers on a daily basis, by the way, right? That’s what they have to consider when exercising. So whenever you want to exercise the First Amendment, always consider the hate speech. This is why Reagan said, you know, freedom is only what one generation away from being lost. You know, paraphrasing, but that’s what it means. If they get power, they get total power. We’re in for it, so be vigilant, folks. Make sure you vote. Make sure you do your part in our republic, in defending our rights. Page of 7 8 Evan Nappen 30:55 Hey, let me tell you about this week’s GOFU, which is the Gun Owner Fuck Up. We always like to talk about GOFUs, because these are expensive lessons, real cases, real individuals have learned. And I don’t want you, my listeners, to have to repeat these mistakes. And this one is, this comes up at any number of cases, even just this week. And here’s the bottom line on this GOFU, folks. Know what you have. Let me tell you what I mean by that. I get cases all the time where people end up with their property seized and their house gets searched. Now you may say, well, no one has searched my house. Yeah, except it’s so easy in New Jersey to have that happen. All it takes is just some allegation by any party. You don’t even get a chance to say anything till afterwards. After they do the search that red flags you, or puts an unjustified restraining order on you, or just your house has a fire, and the firemen come in there. We’ve seen this happen so many times, so many ways, and something gets discovered that you didn’t even remember that you had. Evan Nappen 32:17 Because remember, New Jersey has turned things into crimes where there was no grandfathering. If you had old magazines that held over 10 rounds, in other words, you could even if you complied with Florio way back in the day and made sure your mags only held 15. Well, if you’ve got 15 round Florio mags, you’ve got felony charges on your hands. Even though they were made compliant way back. Because now it’s 10. That’s just one example. If you have firearm that became non-compliant under New Jersey law and didn’t realize it, there’s just a multitude of things that New Jersey can screw you over with. Please make sure you know what you have and not have anything that you shouldn’t. Because it’s so easy to have boxes of accessories, boxes and you know, lo and behold, what’s in it? An old bump stock or an old large capacity magazine or a trigger crank, or any of the things that were legal, but then New Jersey unilaterally decided it is intrinsically evil and must be turned into felonies for possession. So, folks, know what you have. Evan Nappen 33:37 This is Evan Nappen and Teddy Nappen reminding you that gun laws don’t protect honest citizens from criminals. They protect criminals from honest citizens. Speaker 2 33:48 Gun Lawyer is a CounterThink Media production. The music used in this broadcast was managed by Cosmo Music, New York, New York.

This week, we bring in the new year with 1993's Champagne and Bullets. A movie that shows its namesake with the sheer amount of champagne and bullets it presents to you, the viewer. This is classic Worst Movie Ever Made territory… think The Room, Miami Connection, Samurai Cop, Birdemic, and Neil Breen. It's not “so bad it's good,” it's “so awful it's amazing.” Seriously, Champagne and Bullets is such a punisher that we had to take a week off to regroup before talking about it. So let's shimmy slide into this, shall we?

In this episode of Tech Talks, Julian Dibbell is joined by partner Brian Nolan and associate Megan Fitzgerald to unpack how companies can protect AI assets and outputs using IP strategies. The conversation maps the key protectable components of AI—algorithms and code, trained models and parameters, proprietary datasets, and outputs—and evaluates the strengths and limits of trade secrets, copyrights, patents, and contracts. They highlight why trade secrets are particularly powerful for AI while probing emerging "improper means" issues like scraping, prompt injection, and ToS violations. They also survey evolving copyright law on human authorship and fair use in training, and discuss patent inventorship guidance and eligibility trends, before closing with practical contracting approaches to allocate data rights, output ownership, and IP strategy.

In our last episode, we talked about the mystery of unanswered prayer. There are times when God, in His sovereignty and love, chooses to say “No” to our requests.However, the Bible also tells us that our Father loves to say “Yes” to His children. So, why is it that so often we pray and pray, and nothing seems to happen? Where's the problem?All too often, the problem is with us. We're the ones who torpedo the process. In this episode, we're going to look at eight “prayer busters” the Bible warns us about. Failure to pray -“You do not have because you do not ask God.” James 4:2 Unconfessed sin - “If I regard iniquity in my heart, the Lord will not hear. ” Psalm 66:18Unresolved conflict - "If you are offering your gift at the altar and there remember that your brother has something against you, leave your gift there…go and be reconciled to your brother…” Matthew 5:23-24Uncaring attitudes -“If a man shuts his ears to the cry of the poor, he too will cry out and not be answered.” Proverbs 21:13 Improper motives - “When you ask, you do not receive, because you ask with the wrong motives, that you may spend what you get on your pleasures.” James 4:3 Improper timing - "There is a time for everything, and a season for every activity under heaven…” Ecclesiastes 3:1Inadequate faith - “But when he asks, he must believe and not doubt, because he who doubts is like the wave of the sea… that man should not think he will receive anything from the Lord.” James 1:6-7 Inappropriate requests - “…if we ask anything according to His will, He hears us…” I John 5:14 If the request is wrong, God says, “No.”If the timing is wrong, God says, “Slow.”If you are wrong, God says, “Grow.”If the request is right, the timing is right, and you are right, God says, “Go.” Text: variousOriginally recorded on September 26, 2004, at Fellowship Missionary Church, Fort Wayne, IN

Grocery workers at Santa Cruz Markets in Goleta and Santa Barbara have unanimously voted to authorize an Unfair Labor Practice strike, setting the stage for a possible walkout just days before the busy Thanksgiving holiday. Union leaders say the vote is a response to what they describe as ongoing labor violations by the company, and workers are now prepared to strike if negotiations don't resume in good faith. KCSB's Emerson Good spoke with Erik Mendez, a grocery worker and member of the UFCW union about his experiences. NOTE: Since the original interview aired on November 20th, 2025, the Santa Cruz Markets reached a tentative agreement on a contract just before the Thanksgiving holiday, avoiding the strike altogether.
Honduras is holding a high-stakes, single-round election where the outcome could determine if the country returns to alignment with Taiwan or shifts to China.

Avoid costly mistakes with your trophy deer. Get expert field care and taxidermy tips to preserve hide quality, cooling, and mounting perfection from start to finish. Join radio hosts Rebecca Wanner aka ‘BEC' and Jeff ‘Tigger' Erhardt (Tigger & BEC) with the latest in Outdoors & Western Lifestyle News! Don't: Cut Corners on Field Care Common Mistakes That Can Ruin Your Trophy's Quality Gutting: Know where to cut and where not to cut—especially as you move toward the neck. Improper cuts can make caping and mounting much more difficult for your taxidermist. Skinning: Always leave plenty of hide for the type of mount you want. You can never leave too much, but you can definitely leave too little. Dull Knives: A sharp knife is essential. We recommend Outdoor Edge Knives for their quick, replaceable sharp blades. Cooling Head & Hide: Moisture retention is key—don't let the hide or head dry out. Cool your trophy as quickly as possible to preserve quality. Time: Deliver your animal to the taxidermist within 24 hours whenever possible. If that's not an option, freeze it until delivery. We cape our deer with the entire hide still attached to the head. The cape is then folded and rolled under the deer head, placed in a garbage bag, and tied securely around the base of the antlers. Be careful not to bend or distort the ears. Do: Communicate Clearly with Your Taxidermist & Understand Expectations Research: Before the hunt, review potential taxidermists' work so you know who you want to use and what quality to expect. Time: Ask about turnaround time. A 1–2 year completion window is common for quality mounts. Vision: Discuss the mounting style, pose, habitat, and details such as head position, ear placement, and expression. Providing photos of mounts you like can be extremely helpful. Cost: Taxidermy is a major investment. Expect to make a deposit (often 50% or more) when dropping off your animal. Be sure you understand the terms and conditions before committing. Pickle Juice Brine For Venison Pickle juice is your MUST TRY brine for anything from lean pheasant breast to venison and more! That leftover juice in your pickle jar is GOLD, and it's ready to pour over, bath all of your various cuts. What this brine does is tenderizes the meat without removing the moisture as well as takes off the edge of "gamey" taste. This brine works well with steaks, backstraps and roasts! 1-3 hours for smaller cuts while a roast, depending on size, may take up to 24 hours in the brine. After the brine bath, pat dry the meat and cook, season as you typically prefer.
