The U.K. is experiencing a record heat wave, and the country is split between some citizens questioning the ethics of using air conditioning and others resorting to storming storefronts to get portable air conditioners for their homes. But throughout the U.K., police are showing up at homes suspected of using too much AC, and some schools are being stripped of AC units. Glenn also reacts to the recent attacks on government officials that occurred throughout the weekend, which proves that religious radicals will stop at nothing and destroy everybody standing in their way. Lara Trump, host of “My View, with Lara Trump,” joins to discuss immigration in America and how President Trump's own immigration story shaped his policy. Glenn reacts to a recent SCOTUS decision that affirmed Mississippi's rights to count ballots after Election Day. Glenn shows off his latest historical artifact that tells the perfect story to celebrate America's 250th birthday. Joe Erwin, director, producer, and co-screenwriter of “Young Washington,” joins to discuss the film and why it's critical to support it. Glenn discusses the recent statements by Bill Maher and Joy Behar, who are playing the empathy game to avoid accountability for their problematic beliefs.

Today, the Supreme Court ruled on two cases that deal with major political battles. The first deals with mail-in voting, which President Trump has criticized for years. The Supreme Court upheld a Mississippi law that allows election officials to count mail-in ballots postmarked by Election Day but received up to five days later.In another ruling, the High Court ruled that Lisa Cook, a member of the Federal Reserve Board of Governors, can stay in her job for now.Both rulings are considered a loss for President Trump. But are they the final word on these two issues?For sponsor-free episodes of Consider This, sign up for Consider This+ via Apple Podcasts or at plus.npr.org. Email us at considerthis@npr.org.This episode was produced by Jeffrey Pierre and Vincent Acovino, with audio engineering by Ted Mebane. Our director is Alejandra Marquez Janse.It was edited by Benjamin Swasey, Patrick Jarenwattananon, and Tinbete Ermyas.Our interim executive producer is Courtney Dorning.See pcm.adswizz.com for information about our collection and use of personal data for sponsorship and to manage your podcast sponsorship preferences.NPR Privacy Policy

Today's Headlines: Trump's America 250 Great American State Fair opened on the National Mall in the rain, the power went out, the ferris wheel didn't work, there was no fair food, at least 10 states declined to send delegations, and Trump called it "packed to the brim" — the North Carolina booth displayed a Confederate flag overlay on a video loop before sponsors pulled out, which is on brand for an event whose main attractions were a Turning Point USA booth and a broken ferris wheel. Trump also unveiled a limited edition passport featuring his own face with the words "welcome, but be good!," announced plans to renovate a DC golf course starting September 1st, and personally inspected Lafayette Park to ensure it will have exactly 47 maple trees because he's the 47th president. The administration also announced the "Patriot Games" — aka the Hunger Games — a high school athletic competition on the National Mall in August where kids from each state compete for a $250,000 scholarship they split two ways, streaming on ESPN. The Iran war is back on: Trump announced strikes on Iranian targets after an attack on a commercial tanker, threatened to "militarily complete the job," Iran responded by asserting full control of the Strait, threatening to halt negotiations, and launching drone and missile attacks on Bahrain and Kuwait — while Israel and Lebanon signed a framework agreement requiring Israel to withdraw if Lebanon verifies Hezbollah has been fully dismantled, with the US committing $100 million in humanitarian aid. On the Russia beat, coup rumors against Putin got louder this weekend as Russia continues losing in Ukraine, Putin has dramatically increased his personal security, and former Russian defense minister Sergei Ivanov — once seen as Putin's potential successor — died at 73, with his death announced first by a basketball organization he was honorary president of, which is suspicious to say the least. In other news, a new CNN analysis found that Americans in Democratic congressional districts live longer, with nearly 70% of House Democrats representing districts where life expectancy exceeds the national average versus over 70% of Republicans representing districts where it falls below, alongside higher rates of diabetes, obesity, and uninsured residents in Republican districts. Mississippi passed a law creating a registry of undocumented immigrants to share with ICE, covering fewer than 30,000 people out of nearly 3 million state residents. And finally, a dangerous heat dome is forecast for the central and eastern US just in time for July 4th celebrations, so happy 250th America.

This week, Scott sat down with his Lawfare colleagues Kevin Frazier, Roger Parloff, and Molly Roberts to talk through some of the week's big news in AI, including:“Citizen Cain't.” When the NAACP sued Elon Musk's xAI under the Clean Air Act—alleging that the company built dozens of gas-fired turbines to power a data center in Mississippi without relevant air permits and exposing nearby, predominantly Black communities to harmful pollution—the Justice Department opted to do something it has never done before: it intervened in a citizen suit against a private company in order to kill it. DOJ's motion offers two theories: first, that shutting down the turbines would threaten national security because the military relies on xAI's Grok Gov model (including in relation to the Iran war) to secure the nation, and second, that the Constitution's vesting of executive power in the president means private citizens cannot enforce federal law over the executive's objection. How strong are these arguments? And what would it mean for environmental and other citizen-enforcement suits if DOJ were to prevail?“Grok the Vote.” We may be living through the first true “AI elections.” In Manhattan's NY-12 Democratic primary, more than $40 million in AI-industry and AI-safety money turned a little-known assemblyman, Alex Bores, into something of a national referendum on whether voters care about AI regulation and AI safety—though Bores ultimately lost to Micah Lasher this week. Meanwhile, overseas in Malaysia, parties are using chatbots and other AI-driven technologies to reach out to voters in new and novel ways. And just this week in Washington, a new study has concluded that frontier AI is perhaps more persuasive than ever, but also may not be as politically neutral as some suspect or one might hope. What does this all mean for democratic politics when both money and the messaging involved in our politics are increasingly shaped by AI?“Kill, Kill Switch, Kill, Kill!” The government's frontier-AI "kill switch" is now ready to have its first day in court. If you recall, a few weeks ago, the Commerce Department's Bureau of Industry and Security sent Anthropic an "Is Informed" letter ordering it to suspend all access to its Fable 5 and Mythos 5 models for any foreign nationals, including its own employees. This ultimately led Anthropic to pull access to those models for everyone within hours. But this past Monday, June 22, a technology startup called Legion LegalTech filed a lawsuit against the U.S. government alleging that it has acted in a way that is unlawful and raises a number of statutory and constitutional concerns. How strong is the legal challenge, and what does it tell us about whether courts—rather than the executive—will end up defining the government's power to switch a frontier model on and off?In object lessons, Molly sticks to the script for this week's episode with her call-out of Erik Nitsche's “Atoms for Peace” poster series for General Dynamics. Also inspired by this week's theme, Kevin dives into some “light summer reading” about technology, globalization, and the law with “Rules for a Flat World,” by Gillian Hadfield. Roger, similarly, is “unwinding” with “The Winter Warriors,” by Olivier Norek, a novel about the lesser-known David vs. Goliath story of Finland taking on the Soviet Union in 1939. And Scott says enough already! He's headed on vacation next week, and so is Rational Security.

6.8.2026 #RolandMartinUnfiltered: Karmelo Anthony Defense Rests. Trump Insults Black Reporter. Iowa Scholarship Win_ For free and unbiased Medicare help, dial (724) 264-8281 to speak with my trusted partner, Chapter, or go to https://askchapter.org/roland *Paid Partnership*_ Karmelo's Defense attorneys rested their case today without calling him to testify.Closing arguments are scheduled to begin on Tuesday before the case is eventually handed to the jury for deliberations. Legal Analyst Thelma Anderson will breakdown what happened in the courtroom. A scholarship designed to support Black students pursuing careers in chemistry and the physical sciences is at the center of a recent Iowa Supreme Court decision. For now, the decision blocks the University of Iowa's attempt to change the eligibility criteria for this privately funded award. We'll speak with one of the attorneys involved in the case. The Marshall Project reported at least 47 suicides in solitary confinement across Mississippi prisons between 2015 and 2025. We'll discuss this troubling pattern with one of the reporters who discovered that many inmates had previously requested mental health assistance, only to be placed in restrictive housing instead of receiving the care they needed. Once again, Trump insulted a black female reporter. We'll show you the exchange that made the twice-impeached, criminally convicted felon-in-chief, Donald "The Con" Trump abruptly end the interview with NBC's Meet The Press Moderator, Kristen Welker.

In this episode of John Solomon Reports, host John Solomon uncovers a bombshell hearing on Capitol Hill, where Postmaster General David Steiner made a pivotal announcement regarding mail-in ballots. Steiner confirmed that the Postal Service would not deliver ballots from states that refuse to comply with President Trump's executive order mandating the vetting of state voter rolls by the Justice Department. This declaration sets a significant precedent in the ongoing debate over election integrity and is expected to lead to legal battles ahead.Joining Solomon is Congressman Keith Self from Texas, a staunch advocate for the Save America Act. Self shares his insights on the importance of this legislation and suggests that Congress should be compelled to vote on it daily, a strategy that could alter the legislative landscape.The episode also delves into a new scandal reminiscent of the Fast and Furious operation, this time involving fentanyl. A decorated DEA agent has come forward with allegations that over one million deadly fentanyl pills were allowed to flood the streets of New Mexico due to negligence from federal agencies. Solomon speaks with Tristan Leavitt, the agent's lawyer from the Empower Over Oversight Whistleblower Center, to discuss the implications of these allegations and the potential consequences of federal inaction on public health.Finally, Solomon addresses critical federal election rulings pending before the Supreme Court, with insights from Hans von Spakovsky, a leading campaign finance expert. They explore the significance of a key case in Mississippi and its potential to shape the future of elections in the United States.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

6.23.2026 #RolandMartinUnfiltered: SCOTUS Rejects Black Rastafarian. Voting Rights Purge Blocked. Police Kill 1-Year-Old_ For free and unbiased Medicare help, dial (724) 264-8281 to speak with my trusted partner, Chapter, or go to https://askchapter.org/roland *Paid Partnership*_ The Supreme Court rules 6-3 against a Black Rastafarian man in Louisiana who had sued prison officials after they forcibly shaved off his dreadlocks, in what he said was a clear violation of his religious rights. Elie Mystal joins us to break down the latest from the high court. The MAGA Attack on voting rights faces a crucial setback as a federal judge intervenes to stop states from using software developed by immigration enforcement to review their voter rolls, which voting rights groups say would have resulted in unconstitutional voter purges. The family of Kohen Wiley, the one-year-old black boy shot and killed by police in a Walmart parking lot in Mississippi has announced funeral services will be held this coming weekend. The announcement comes as civil rights attorney Ben Crump demands video evidence in the case and has ordered an independent autopsy of the boy. The Senate passed a new, bi-partisan housing bill which makes it easier to construct new homes and helps ensure they can be purchased by families, not corporations. With the legislation now headed to the House of Representatives, the president of the National Association of Real Estate Brokers will join us to analyze what impact these measures could have for black homeowners nationwide. In Ohio, a police officer has been placed on leave after bystander and body camera video show him kneeling on top of a 15-year-old girl following an altercation at a Juneteenth Festival last weekend. We'll show you that video and let you decide for yourself. And in the latest installment of Crazy Ass White People -- a black man and his family tried to go fishing in Florida last weekend, only to have a white couple show up, demand they move and then start calling them the n-word.

On today's episode, we are breaking down the 2026 state legislative season and how the landscape affecting nonprofit advocacy is shifting across the country. We are recording this in mid-June, and while most states have wrapped up for the year, not all have, so you are going to want to look at your state to get a sense of what's enacted, what's moving, and what's dead. What we're seeing this year is not just incremental change, but a rapid expansion of state-level regulation over campaign finance, ballot measures, voter access, and increasingly, what we are calling foreign influence laws or national security-style frameworks applied to civil society.   Attorneys for this episode Maggie Ellinger-Locke Susan Finkle Sourlis Natalie Ossenfort   Shownotes Overview ·      This year, 46 states plus DC held legislative sessions. ·      We tracked roughly 1,000 bills that could impact nonprofit advocacy. ·      Of those bills that have now become law, almost half relate to state campaign finance and / or ballot measure processes. ·      Perhaps the biggest story of the 2026 legislative session is the expansion of laws that borrow concepts from national security and apply them to nonprofit advocacy. New Campaign Finance Laws ·      Louisiana increased the threshold triggering disclosure for certain campaign contributions. ·      West Virginia now not only prevents the public disclosure of certain contributor information, but also created a new criminal penalty for violations of the disclosure prohibition. ·      Kansas eliminated the requirement for political committees to disclose the names of vendors when reporting disbursements New Ballot Measure Procedures ·      Ballot measure legislation accounted for 20% of the bills we monitored, about 350 pieces of legislation. Here, we saw 22 laws enacted across 13 states plus DC. ·      Both Wisconsin and Utah now require signature gatherers to be at least 18 y.o. ·      New York now requires legislators to draft questions at an 8th grade reading level or below, and Maryland did something similar. ·      South Dakota eliminated the requirement to place ballot measures on a separate ballot from candidate elections. ·      In Missouri, voters will decide this August whether to approve a change to that state's ballot measure procedures. Currently, in order to pass, measures need a simple statewide majority, but under Amendment 4, a majority in all eight of the state's congressional districts would be required. New Lobbying and Ethics Laws ·      This type of legislation constituted about 13% of all bills we tracked. ·      In Minnesota, certain lobbying communications conveyed to the public must now include a disclaimer to identify the lobbying principal, who is responsible for the communication. Laws Related to Law Enforcement Presence at the Polls and Voting ·      Legislation was enacted in California, Maryland, New Mexico, and Connecticut to restrict law enforcement presence at the polls. ·      The new Connecticut law also removed the statutory list of reasons required to vote absentee, effectively allowing no-excuse absentee voting. It also permits 17-year-olds who will be 18 by election day to vote early or by absentee ballot. ·      Kansas moved up the deadline for early voting. ·      Mississippi now requires ballot counting to be finalized on the night of the election.[SS1] [ME2]  Foreign Influence Laws ·      We made note of 89 such bills filed across 26 states and 12 laws enacted across seven states. ·      Florida enacted a domestic terrorist organization (DTO) designation framework that will allow the state to designate certain groups as terrorist organizations and then criminalize any support those groups receive from that point forward. ·      In Indiana, a new law authorizes the designation of domestic groups and individuals as "affiliates" of federally designated foreign terrorist organizations. The same law creates new investigatory powers for the state AG. ·      Other foreign influence laws we saw enacted this session come out of Alabama, Iowa, Nebraska, and Oklahoma, all of which seek to curb the flow of money into elections from overseas. Takeaways & Reminders ·      Many of the most significant experiments in regulating nonprofit advocacy are now occurring at the state level. ·      Compliance teams should continue to update and refine their review processes to ensure any obligations that could be triggered by state-specific rules are being met. ·      Remember that states differ on when and whether a ballot measure committee must register, what counts as a contribution or expenditure, when disclaimers are required, and what donor disclosure rules apply. These rules are in active evolution. ·      When it comes to foreign influence or terrorist designation laws, states are increasingly willing to experiment with new regulatory frameworks. ·      It is critical to stay informed about developments in your state and remain vigilant to ensure your nonprofit is flexing its advocacy might to the fullest extent possible under the law.

A decades-long hunting battle nears victory as conservation wins stack nationwide. Momentum is building for hunters, anglers, and conservation advocates across the country. This week's Sportsmen's Voice Roundup covers a major development in Massachusetts, where Sunday hunting legislation is closer to becoming law than ever before. After key provisions were stripped from the Governor's budget proposal earlier this year, lawmakers revived and unanimously advanced measures that would expand hunting opportunities, increase access for working hunters, allow broader crossbow use during archery season, and modernize outdated setback requirements. Listeners will hear why this legislation matters not only for deer management and public health concerns like Lyme disease and Alpha-gal syndrome, but also for the future of hunting access in one of America's most restrictive states. The conversation also dives into encouraging wild turkey harvest numbers across the Southeast. Kentucky, Tennessee, Mississippi, and Louisiana all reported exceptional spring turkey seasons, highlighting the ongoing success of wild turkey conservation and restoration efforts. Additional updates include the latest on South Atlantic red snapper management, California legislation supporting hunter safety during archery seasons, and how free fishing days across the Great Lakes region continue introducing new anglers to the water. If you care about hunting access, wildlife management, turkey hunting, recreational fishing, and the policies shaping the future of the outdoors, this is a roundup you won't want to miss.

There's a lot on the docket today. To pull apart the Iran “deal” framework, Mary and Andrew are joined by Tess Bridgeman, an international law expert who served as a legal advisor in the Obama administration through the 2015 nuclear deal with Iran. Tess lays out how President Trump's 14-point memorandum of understanding differs from what was brokered in 2015, and what to watch for as negotiations continue. Before she joins, the co-hosts begin by analyzing several examples of what Mary calls the Trump Justice Department's "consistent effort” to avoid judicial review: their refusal to put into a sworn declaration that they won't move forward with the “Anti-Weaponization” fund and a motion to dismiss a Clean Air Act violation lawsuit against Elon Musk's xAI data center in Mississippi. They also tackle a few instances where, contrastingly, the government has positioned itself “on the offense” this week, including an indictment of 15 protesters on a conspiracy charge against ICE and the DHS' intent to build a border wall through a holy landmark atop Mount Cristo Rey in New Mexico. Further reading: Here is the New York Times piece, Mary referred to about the Las Cruces case: A Diocese Tries to Protect Its 29-Foot Jesus From Trump's Border Wall Here is the Just Security tracker that Mary and Andrew mentioned: Immigration Habeas Tracker: Government Obstruction, Judicial Trust, and Accountability Sign up for MS NOW Premium on Apple Podcasts to listen to this show and other MS podcasts without ads.

Freedom Summer didn't end in 1964 — it lives in every classroom, every protest, every young person who picks up a book and sees themselves as their own liberator. In this conversation, Dr. David J. Johns sits down with his sister and colleague Dr. Brittany Packnett Cunningham — strategist, educator, Webby Award-winning host of UNDISTRACTED, and Vice President and Chief Strategy Officer of the Children's Defense Fund — to trace the direct line from Mississippi 1964 to the urgent work of this summer.They go deep on who actually carried Freedom Summer — young people and everyday Black Mississippians who risked everything for the audacity of a vote — and how Marian Wright, present on those same voter registration lines, took what she saw and built what would become CDF Freedom Schools, now serving upwards of 12,000 students every summer. Dr. Brittany explains why Freedom Schools are as much an intervention for the whole family as they are for the child — and why, in a moment when Roots has been banned in the same county where Alex Haley bought the farm that bears its legacy, we cannot afford to lose the recipes.The conversation moves into UNDISTRACTED — the Meteor Network flagship that Dr. David is proud to be part of as a correspondent this season — and what it means to build a platform where the questions are better and the community is ready to wrestle with them. And it closes with the ecosystem that connects it all: State of the People, Signal LIVE, All Roads Lead South, and Freedom Summer 2026 — a season-long drumbeat of mobilization, education, and local organizing rooted in the same soil as 1964.This is not a closed chapter.

Steve Lowry and Yvonne Godfrey interview trial lawyers Bill Horton and D'Arcy L.R. Rapp about their Dallas trial of Davis v. NCAA, arising from SMU lineman JT Davis's repeated head impacts from 1955–1959, his later dementia, and a postmortem Boston University diagnosis of stage four CTE after his 2016 death.   CASE SUMMARY: They discuss securing a $140 million verdict ($30M compensatory, $110M punitive), the NCAA's historical knowledge of concussion risks through decades of medical literature and internal documents (including a 1933 medical handbook), and how the team simplified complex science and governance evidence using timelines, boards, and themes like control, competitive disadvantage, and “recommendations vs rules.” They address defenses including Alzheimer's, vascular factors, APOE4 genetic predisposition (framed as eggshell plaintiff), statute-of-limitations discovery issues, and trial strategy, cross-examinations, and damages presentation. (READ MORE)   GUEST BIOS BILL HORTON: Bill Horton has spent his career fighting for people who the system often overlooks—delivering results that stand among the largest in his field, including a $140 million verdict against the NCAA. Since earning his law degree in 2001, Bill has helped clients across Arkansas and the country secure justice against corporations, insurers, and powerful institutions. His work spans catastrophic injury, wrongful death, trucking litigation, class actions, and complex cases where the stakes are highest. Raised in Van Buren, Arkansas, Bill's path into law was shaped early. “Growing up poor, it became clear that the system wasn't fair for folks like me—and I wanted to change that,” he says. That perspective still drives his work today. (READ MORE)   D'Arcy L.R. Rapp: D'Arcy L.R. Rapp is an attorney at Shrader & Associates, LLP. She focuses her practice on mesothelioma, neurodegenerative disease, and toxic exposure. She has more than a decade of experience in fighting for people who have been injured by the negligence of corporations. She is an experienced trial lawyer with an extensive history in mesothelioma cases and has been involved at every stage of litigation, trying cases in more than eleven states. With well over fifty-million-dollars recovered on the behalf of her clients, she is dedicated to fighting for justice While a majority of D'Arcy's litigation experience is related to mesothelioma, she has handled cases across a variety of practice areas. Her expert opinion has been sought after by multiple publications. She was published in the Elgar Encyclopedia of Environmental Law on her work, as well as in Gender Race & Just on the subject of non-biological, non-adoptive parents in Arkansas, Florida, Mississippi, and Utah.

Senate Public Health Chairman Hob Bryan said the lack of transparency around the governor's program to spend millions in federal rural health dollars in Mississippi is "almost the Saturday Night Live parody of secrecy." Bryan and his House counterpart, Chairman Sam Creekmore, share their frustrations over lack of input from communities, and the Legislature, in how the state spends federal rural health care money.

On this episode, Clay spends a significant portion of the show breaking down the viral video of Dasha Kilpatrick, a Texas massage therapist who got into a heated confrontation with two Muslim women at an HEB grocery store. After being selectively edited and doxxed online by activist “Tizzy,” Kilpatrick was fired from her job — but a GiveSendGo fundraiser launched in her support has already raised over $159,000. Clay defends Kilpatrick's comments, calling her a hero for speaking out and criticizing the selective editing and cancel culture tactics used against her. He also addresses the broader issue of Islam and its incompatibility with Western values. Clay is also joined in studio by recently retired 30-year law enforcement veteran Creston Berch. Together they discuss the Senatobia, Mississippi officer-involved shooting where a one-year-old child was killed after his mother allegedly tried to run over police following a shoplifting incident. They break down the “fog of war” that officers face in split-second decisions and push back against the narrative being pushed by activists and Ben Crump. The show also covers a female police officer in Canada who accidentally shot a civilian during a mass shooting, as well as several other culture war topics including MLB players writing Bible verses on their Pride Night hats and Chicago Mayor Brandon Johnson focusing on “transfemicide” while his city saw dozens shot over the weekend. It's another raw, unfiltered episode of The Clay Edwards Show.

Northeast Mississippi Community College President Dr. Ricky G. Ford and Marketing and Public Relations Specialist Liz Calvery look at some of the big projects that the college has going on on the Booneville campus. Ford highlights the ongoing renovations to the men's residence hall -- White Hall - and the significant improvements taking place to enhance student living spaces. He also discusses the Career Technical Education (CTE) build-out at the former Corinthian building on MS-4, noting the multi-phase approach with the first stage set to begin in late summer or early fall of 2026 to develop new classroom spaces. By relocating a majority of the college's CTE programs to the new facility, additional space will become available on the Booneville campus to expand healthcare programs and increase the number of graduates in high-demand medical fields. Ford also provides an update on the Seth Pounds Auditorium renovation, sharing that contractors are on schedule -- and in some cases ahead -- with completion now anticipated in spring 2027. Ford also discusses the Public Safety Training Center that will make Northeast one of the premier locations for training of public safety officials in the state. In addition, Ford touches on several other campus improvement projects, emphasizing that each carries its own timeline but will ultimately enhance the overall student experience in meaningful ways. Plus, get the latest updates on athletics, academics, workforce development, and all the incredible things happening at one of the nation's premier community colleges.

Mississippi custody law just changed in a significant way. On April 8, 2026, Governor Tate Reeves signed House Bill 1662, creating a rebuttable presumption that joint custody with equal parenting time is in the best interest of the child. In this episode of the R+E Podcast, Matt Easterling and Sarah Didlake sit down with former Chancellor Ed Patten to break down what that actually means—and what it doesn't. Does this create automatic 50/50 custody? How will judges apply a "rebuttable presumption" in real courtrooms? And what happens to the traditional best interest analysis? Drawing on decades of experience from the chancery bench, Judge Patten offers a practical, real-world perspective on how this law will play out for families across Mississippi. The conversation goes beyond headlines to explore litigation strategy, settlement dynamics, and the new approach to child support in equal parenting time cases, making this essential listening for parents, lawyers, and anyone working with families.

A diaper shoplifting allegation should never end with a one-year-old dead, but that is exactly why we felt we had to talk about Senatobia, Mississippi. We sit down with James White from Southern Draw Law, a former cop and attorney who has spent years breaking down police accountability cases with receipts, legal context, and zero patience for excuses. Together, we walk through what is known so far, what the public still has not been shown, and why official statements that sound like “trust the process” often deepen suspicion instead of building trust.We zoom out from the headlines to the mechanics that create disasters: the culture inside a department, the incentive to protect the institution, and the training gaps that leave officers improvising constitutional law under stress. We dig into why shooting into moving vehicles is almost never tactically sound, how “unmet expectations” can trigger ego and emotional escalation, and why supervisors matter more than most people want to admit. James also explains key concepts like constitutional sequencing and what legally counts as a seizure, plus how civil exposure and Monell claims can reveal patterns that leadership tries to ignore.We end with a hard but necessary message: policing has to be built on the Constitution, humility, and real consequences, not slogans or feelings.

Seth Rockman discusses his book, Plantation Goods: A Material History of American Slavery which tells one of the biggest stories of early American history through everyday consumer goods: shoes manufactured in Massachusetts for the use of enslaved people in Mississippi, for example, or woolen dresses stitched in Rhode Island for enslaved women in South Carolina […]

The Mississippi family of a one year old boy shot and killed by police is asking for the release of the officer’s body cam footage, as well as the dash camera and store surveillance video. Police maintain little Kohen Wiley’s mother and her friend were trying to get away in their vehicle after a shoplifting call when the car veered towards the officer who fired the fatal shots. The big question was the car moving away from or towards the officer? See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

In today's episode of Backpacker Radio presented by The Trek, brought to you by Topo Athletic, we are joined by Matthew Hengst, aka Masochist, an IT-professional-turned-full-time-adventurer who over the past eight-plus years has racked up 20,000 miles hiked, nearly 3,000 miles paddled, 2.5 million feet of elevation climbed, and somewhere north of 300 diving sessions across multiple continents.  Masochist walks us through canoeing 2,400 miles down the Mississippi, the time he fell 25 feet in a remote part of the Sierra and laid there for 15 hours waiting for a helicopter, catching COVID and norovirus back to back at 12,000 feet on the CDT, navigating stealth camping across rural America, terrifying encounters with dogs, and his favorite parts of the Eastern Continental Trail. Matthew also makes a strong case for why the Florida Trail and the Condor Trail are two of the most underrated long trails, and explains why he has no plans to stop adventuring anytime soon. We wrap the show with the devastating news that Timberline Lodge has ended its breakfast buffet, debating whether poop pees count as full pees, a sun hoodie review on a product that's maybe not a sun hoodie, the triple crown of words for penis (with Chaunce publicly soliciting micropenis photos), and the best way to move legos across the country.

Something in the Water - Part One Six friends arrive at Table Rock Lake in the summer of 2010 expecting a quiet week in the Ozarks—swimming, boating, and long evenings beneath the Missouri stars. What they find instead is a place with a history far older than the dam that created it. This week on The Devil Within, we begin a three-part campfire case rooted in documented history, Indigenous tradition, and the uneasy possibility that some places remember what was buried beneath them. When the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers completed Table Rock Dam in 1958, they flooded an entire valley, submerging roads, foundations, churches, and whole communities beneath more than 43,000 acres of water. But the flooded towns were not the first things to disappear from this landscape. Long before the lake existed, the Osage people lived along the White River and carried stories of powerful beings dwelling beneath the water. Among them was a mysterious figure known across the Mississippi watershed as the Underwater Panther—a guardian of thresholds, deep places, and the dangerous boundary between worlds. Then one swimmer feels an impossible cold in the middle of an August afternoon. Something brushes against her ankle. The next day, someone else is pulled beneath the surface. And before the week is over, the group begins to wonder whether the lake is merely covering something—or keeping it. Because some waters are deeper than they appear. And some things beneath them are still waiting.

In a shocking comparison, the speaker reveals that the United Kingdom, a country that once ruled a quarter of the planet, has fallen behind Mississippi in terms of economic prosperity. With a GDP per capita of $57,000, the UK trails behind the US and even Mississippi, which has eliminated its state income tax. This episode explores the reasons behind Britain's decline and what lessons we can learn from their mistakes.The speaker delves into the UK's energy policy, which has led to expensive electricity prices, making it difficult for industries to compete globally. They also discuss how high-volume, low-skilled immigration has masked the country's productivity collapse, leading to stagnant wages and a growing welfare state. The speaker argues that the UK's centralized government and lack of economic kitchen have contributed to its downfall.The conversation also touches on the importance of energy independence and the dangers of relying on expensive, imported energy sources. The speaker highlights the contrast between the UK's situation and that of Mississippi, which has taken a different approach to energy policy. They also discuss the need for a safety net, but warn against creating a hammock that grows faster than the economy.In this episode, the speaker offers a warning to the US, highlighting the dangers of following in the UK's footsteps. They argue that we must prioritize economic growth and energy independence, rather than relying on expensive, imported energy sources. To hear more about the UK's decline and the lessons we can learn from their mistakes, tune in to this episode and discover how we can avoid a similar fate.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

On this episode, Clay is joined in studio by Shelter Insurance agent Jamie Creel and recently retired Clinton Police Officer Creston Berch. The conversation centers on the officer-involved shooting in Senatobia, Mississippi, where a one-year-old child was killed after his mother allegedly attempted to run over police officers following a shoplifting incident at Walmart. Clay pushes back hard against the narrative being pushed by Ben Crump and activists, arguing that the officer was justified in firing and that the blame lies with the adults who chose to flee and put the child in danger. He calls it a tragic but clear-cut case of FAFO, pointing out the hypocrisy of those quick to riot over this incident while remaining silent about the much higher number of black children killed in black-on-black violence. The discussion also touches on the importance of accountability, the dangers of politicizing every police shooting, and why law enforcement officers are often forced to make split-second decisions with life-altering consequences. Jamie Creel also breaks down insurance issues related to flooding and wind/hail claims in Mississippi. It's another unfiltered conversation about culture, consequences, and the refusal to accept personal responsibility.

The Department of Veterans Affairs hosted an IT industry day last week with a specific takeaway from the agency's deputy CIO: incumbency itself is not enough. Zack Schwartz, principal deputy assistant secretary in the VA's Office of Information and Technology, said he's made it clear that tech contractors need to bring their “A-game when it comes to supporting the veteran,” and the VA is open for business with whoever can do it best. “Incumbency is not a guarantee, incumbency is not an advantage,” Schwartz said in an interview with FedScoop. “We will not settle just because you've supported the VA in the past.” Schwartz said last Wednesday's private IT Advanced Planning Brief to Industry was a breakthrough between the agency and industry, as he made it clear that the “massive organization” is “moving extremely fast” to modernize and integrate AI with governance. LOGZONE, an Alabama-based logistics services provider, has agreed to pay more than $507,000 to resolve allegations that it misrepresented its compliance with Pentagon cybersecurity requirements while doing work with the Navy. According to a settlement agreement published last Thursday, the Justice Department alleged that LOGZONE failed to fully implement required security controls under NIST Special Publication 800-171 despite its contract mandating compliance. While not an explicit violation of the Cybersecurity Maturity Model Certification (CMMC) program, the suit highlights the Defense Department's increasing scrutiny of the defense industry not implementing required cybersecurity measures for sensitive information. The settlement stems from two contracts awarded by the Navy between 2021 and 2022 for logistics, inventory management and facility support services for the Naval Oceanographic Command located at Stennis Space Center in Mississippi. According to the settlement agreement, LOGZONE received more than $682,000 under the contracts through March 2025. The Daily Scoop Podcast is available every Monday-Friday afternoon.

Jeremiah writes "I've had two experiences that both I and my friends believe may have been Sasquatch/Bigfoot encounters. First Encounter – July 2025 My first encounter involved myself (originally from Missouri, now living in Arkansas), my friend Nacho (Jacob, from Mississippi), and our other friend Torin (from Missouri). It took place near Neosho, Missouri. Nacho and I have been interested in Bigfoot and other cryptids since we were kids. One night, after spending most of the day playing video games at Torin's house, we jokingly decided around 10:30 PM to go "squatch hunting." Torin wasn't interested in going because he had a bad migraine, but we eventually convinced him to come with us. We headed to Fort Crowder Conservation Area, a large wooded area near Neosho. Once there, we experienced several strange events. We had rocks thrown in our direction, heard what sounded like ground pounds, and could hear something moving behind us on the trail as well as around us in the woods. At one point, the same thing produced a deep, low rumbling growl that almost sounded like a stomach growling. The most unsettling moment came when trees were knocked down in front of us, effectively blocking our path and preventing us from going any farther. As we retreated, more rocks were thrown at us. Throughout the entire experience, the woods were unnaturally quiet there were no insects, no wildlife sounds, nothing. The following night, Nacho and I returned to the area, this time approaching from the opposite side. Since it was only the two of us and we were honestly pretty nervous after the previous night's events, we decided to stay close to the car. After arriving, we stepped out briefly and Nacho made a few calls. Not long afterward, something very close by responded by smacking a tree on his side of the vehicle. A little later, I repeatedly heard something moving around on my side of the car. We were recording the entire time, and later, when reviewing the footage, we noticed things we hadn't picked up on in the moment. My recording captured the tree knock very clearly, while Nacho's recording contained a distant whoop that neither of us had noticed while we were there. Second Encounter – November 2025 In November 2025, Nacho, our friend Caleb (from New York), and I decided to spend two days and one night investigating the Honobia area of Oklahoma. We had been listening to Episode 11 and realized how close Nacho and I were to the location of the Honobia Siege, which motivated us to make the trip. Caleb and I met Nacho at the main store in town, where we got a campsite and spoke with some locals. We spent most of the day driving around the area, exploring and looking for signs of activity, but we didn't encounter anything unusual. That evening, we returned to camp, settled in, cooked some great food, and climbed into the tent. Like most guys in their twenties, we ended up reading Bigfoot stories on Reddit and talking late into the night. About thirty minutes later, we heard something approach our tent on what sounded like two feet. When we stopped talking and listened, the footsteps immediately stopped. A few moments later, we heard two rocks clack together somewhere in the nearby river. We started talking again, and shortly afterward the footsteps resumed. Once again, we went quiet, and once again the movement stopped. This time we heard two distinct rock clacks one from the river close to our campsite, and another from much farther away, roughly a quarter mile downstream. There was a lot more that happened during both encounters than what I've described here. I've left out many details simply because there is so much to tell, but these were the major events that stood out the most."

This week on The Necessary Conversation, Chad (who just turned 50!

This week, we analyze the ongoing enforcement of racial terror, deceptive political monuments, and state policy: - The Mississippi Walmart Shooting: We dissect the horrific police shooting in Senatobia, Mississippi, where an officer responding to an alleged shoplifting call fired directly into a vehicle, killing 1-year-old Black child Kohen Wiley. We apply counter-racist logic to deconstruct how the system prioritizes white corporate property over Black lives, scrutinizing the media's language surrounding "suspects" and "theft" to camouflage state-sanctioned infant murder. The Obama Presidential Center Deconstruction: We scrutinize the grand opening of the Obama Presidential Center on Chicago's South Side. Deconstructing the corporate celebration, we deploy fresh investigative data showing that the city's heavily publicized "housing preservation ordinances" were a complete administrative fraud. We break down how $2 million in housing funds sat unspent while real estate developers aggressively price Black residents out of Woodlawn, proving the system uses the image of a Black president as a deceptive marketing tool to execute the economic clearance of Black people. About the Program: - The Context of White Supremacy hosts the Counter-Racist Weekly Review. This broadcast examines current events from across the globe to learn what's happening in all areas of people activity. We cultivate Counter-Racist Media Literacy by scrutinizing journalists' word choices and using logic to deconstruct what is reported as "news." We use these sessions to hone our use of terms as tools to reveal truth and neutralize Racists/White people.
