Donald Trump returned to power promising “maximum transparency.” But when it came time to release the Jeffrey Epstein files, that promise collapsed into redactions, missing documents, and outright misinformation. In this video, we break down how Trump's Justice Department botched—and arguably sabotaged—the Epstein disclosures, why Attorney General Pam Bondi's claims rang hollow, and why the loudest backlash came not from Democrats, but from Trump's own conspiracy-driven base. We examine the partial release, the missed legal deadline, the removal (and quiet restoration) of photos involving Trump, and the administration's shifting excuses about “protecting victims”—even as survivors themselves condemned the DOJ for causing harm. Independent media has never been more important.

Beloved, As Christmas comes and goes, the world softens for a moment. The pace eases, the noise quietens, and something deeper becomes easier to hear.This season carries a powerful essential nature quality: returning to the foundation.Before goals. Before vision boards. Before the next becoming.Remember that at your core, there is an original design, steady, wise, and intact. Christmas offers a natural pause to reconnect with that inner architecture. The part of you that already knows who you are, how you function best, and what truly matters.So rather than pushing forward, this years' season is an invitation to come home. Home to your body. Home to your heart. Home to the intelligence that lives beneath effort and striving.From a divine nature and divine feminine perspective, alignment always begins here, in rest, resonance, and remembrance.As this year completes its cycle, my suggestion to you is to allow yourself to receive:• integration instead of urgency• clarity instead of pressure• nourishment instead of effortWhatever unfolded this year has shaped your field, refined your awareness, and strengthened your inner structure. Nothing has been wasted. Everything has informed your true essence.The Great Mother and Father that birthed your existence into form.As we know it takes two to make a baby, without that balance the offspring might be imbalanced. My wish for you is simple. May your foundation feel steady. May your hearts feel held and may your inner compass feel clear.RETURNING TO MOTHER | COMFORT & PEACE | FOR ALLI leave you with a remembrance of what was removed a long time ago in the name of power and control. The Holy Spirit is proven to be “female.” Make Gods in OUR image - was the foundation of the trinity of Elohim, Eshera and Yeshua. Mother, Father and Son/Daughter.The divine feminine - which is rising and bringing care, love and healing into our consciousness.The connection between Sophia theology and women's teaching authority is inseparable.Karen King, a professor of church history at Harvard Divinity School, suggests that the Nag Hammadi texts are not an aberration, but a window into a Christianity that flourished for the first two centuries.In this world, Sophia was a central theological concept, and women held significant positions of teaching authority.This was not a marginal movement; it thrived in major centers of thought like Alexandria, Rome, and Gaul.The texts preserve fierce debates, such as the Second Treatise of the Great Seth, which records a Christ figure ridiculing bishops who claim authority without knowing the truth.The Testimony of Truth directly attacks the institutional church, claiming its leaders possess the name of a dead man but lack the actual spirit of truth.These were not the writings of defeated heretics hiding in caves, but the arguments of sophisticated theologians claiming the institutional church had abandoned Christ in favor of political power.The historical pattern is clear: Sophia theology flourished wherever Christians had intellectual freedom and collapsed wherever bishops allied with imperial power.By the late 4th century, major centers of this tradition had been suppressed, and the texts survived only because monks buried them before the purges arrived.The Nag Hammadi discovery proved that an entire branch of Christianity was erased, not because it lost the theological argument, but because it lost a political war.The removal of Sophia was a metaphysical amputation that severed humanity from half of the divine image.For the first two centuries, women could look toward the heavens and see themselves reflected in Sophia, who was wisdom incarnate, present at creation, and a teacher of humanity.Her existence meant that femininity was ontologically divine, allowing women in these communities to teach, prophesy, and perform sacraments with divine authority.After the Council of Nicaea and the destruction of these texts, the reflection of the feminine divine disappeared.The Trinity—Father, Son, and Holy Spirit—became conceptually MASCULINE, and the only remaining feminine figure was Mary, defined by her obedience and receptivity.If the divine image is exclusively masculine, then maleness is seen as godly, while women become derivative reflections or corrupted vessels.In the late 4th century, Augustine of Hippo codified this into doctrine, arguing that a woman is not the image of God by herself, but only when joined to a man.This theology shaped law, culture, and family structure, suggesting that female subordination was not social convention but a cosmic order.The slide toward devaluation reached a point where the Council of Macon in 585 CE debated whether women even possessed souls.Medieval theology continued this descent, with Thomas Aquinas characterizing women as “misbegotten males” and defective versions of the masculine ideal.These were not fringe ideas; they were the foundational doctrines of the intellectual authorities defining the Western Church for centuries.The practical consequences were catastrophic, as women were excluded from universities and prohibited from reading scripture in the vernacular.The witch trials of the early modern period eventually criminalized women's traditional knowledge of healing and midwifery, labeling it as a demonic theft of male authority.Beyond gender, the erasure of Sophia reshaped the human relationship with curiosity and wisdom.In the Sophia narratives, her defining characteristic is a desire to know and understand the depths of divine mystery.Though her desire led to error, that error was seen as correctable through knowledge, suggesting that seeking wisdom is better than blind obedience.In the post-Nicene narrative, however, Sophia's desire became the template for forbidden knowledge, and curiosity was reframed as the sin of pride.Independent thought became a rebellion, and education was placed under strict ecclesiastical control.The medieval church's multiple bans on the works of Aristotle and the trials of figures like Galileo were symptoms of this theological monopoly on truth.Even the Scientific Revolution and the Enlightenment, which emerged as rebellions against this monopoly, largely excluded women from the new universities.The intellectual flowering of Europe happened in a world where half of humanity was still theologically barred from the pursuit of wisdom.Ultimately, Sophia represented a conviction that Western Spirituality desperately lacked: the belief that the pursuit of truth is a holy act of desire, not a sinful act of rebellion.IN CLOSING Thank you for walking this conscious path with me, for your trust, your openness, and your willingness to live in alignment with who you truly are.I look forward to guiding you into the next chapter, rooted, resourced, and ready.Love, KassandraThe Light Between is a reader-supported publication.

CLODIA'S PRIVILEGE AND CICERO'S AMBITION Colleague Douglas Boin. Boin introduces Clodia, a privileged woman from an ancient Roman family on Palatine Hill. He contrasts her aristocratic, independent nature—manifested in her name spelling—with the rise of Cicero, a talented outsider. Boin frames their eventual conflict as a clash between established power and ambitious newcomers. NUMBER 13

As we head into 2026, independent pharmacies are facing a hard reset in how healthcare is regulated, marketed, and delivered. From tightening scrutiny around tracking and consumer health data to rising patient expectations for speed, transparency, and convenience, the rules of engagement are changing fast—and pharmacies that don't adapt risk falling behind.In this episode of the DrMarketingTips Show – Independent Pharmacy Edition, we break down the forces shaping the year ahead and what they mean for independent pharmacy owners and operators. This conversation focuses on the practical realities of privacy, patient access, logistics, and trust—and how these shifts create both risk and opportunity for pharmacies navigating an increasingly consumer-driven healthcare environment.

A bevy of new bookstores have opened across Northeast Ohio over the past several years, in line with a national trend of growing demand for local retailers.

Some of the identities we're most proud of are the ones quietly harming us.In this powerful solo myth-busting episode of The Secret Formula of Femininity, Dr. Nicole Monteiro unpacks the cultural, psychological, and health myths many women — especially Black women — were taught to survive… but were never meant to live inside forever.This episode challenges three deeply ingrained myths:✨ The Strong Black Woman myth✨ The Independent at All Costs myth✨ The belief that Soft = WeakAnd it exposes the health myths that come with them:• “Strong means neglecting your body”• “Weight and health are just discipline, not lifestyle balance”• “Rest is laziness”Blending personal storytelling, psychology, and research-informed insight, this episode explores how chronic stress, hyper-independence, and self-neglect show up in women's bodies — and how redefining strength through boundaries, softness, and regulation is an act of healing.If you've ever felt guilty resting…If you've pushed through symptoms to keep functioning…If you've been praised for being strong while quietly breaking inside…This episode is for you.

As 2025 draws to a close, we're replaying some of the show's standout conversations from this year. This episode with James Kerr remains one of the most thought-provoking discussions. Whether you're hearing it for the first time or revisiting the insights, there's plenty here to fuel your leadership thinking as we head into the new year.James Kerr is a writer, coach, and consultant who specialises in leadership, culture and mindset in high-performing teams.

James shares how the iconic “Sweeping the Shed” mantra, revolutionised team culture at the All Blacks, and how these principles can be applied beyond the rugby field into business and everyday life.DiscoverThe Role of Values in Sustainable Success: By embracing values such as humility, responsibility, and respect, the All Blacks created a foundation for long-term success, demonstrating that values-driven cultures outperform talent-driven ones.The Power of Rituals and Symbols: The enduring significance of the Haka demonstrates how rituals and symbols can reinforce identity, unity, and purpose within a team.Leadership Across Domains: The principles of leadership and cultural excellence are universal and can be applied across diverse fields, demonstrated by James' work in sports, military, and business.Neuroscience and Leadership: The interplay between neuroscience and performance underpins how understanding the brain's responses to fear and confidence can inspire leaders to strike a balance between challenges and support, fostering growth and accountability.Connect with James - https://www.linkedin.com/in/james-kerr-09a70bbConnect with Dominic - https://www.linkedin.com/in/dominicmonkhouseBook recommendations:Viktor Frankl - Man's Search For Meaning - https://www.penguin.co.uk/books/347571/mans-search-for-meaning-by-viktor-e-frankl/9781846046384Daniel Kahneman - Thinking, Fast and Slow - https://www.penguin.co.uk/books/56314/thinking-fast-and-slow-by-kahneman-daniel/9780141033570Daniel Coyle - The Culture Code - https://danielcoyle.com/the-culture-code/Jim Collins - Good To Great - https://www.jimcollins.com/article_topics/articles/good-to-great.html#articletopJames' book Legacy is out now - https://danielcoyle.com/the-culture-code/Dominic's book Mind Your F**king Business is out now - https://www.monkhouseandcompany.com/mind-your-fking-business/--------Sign up to receive our weekly Curious Leadership newsletter: https://subscribe.monkhouseandcompany.comFollow Dominic on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/dominicmonkhouse

Is white supremacy moving back into the center of American political power? This video breaks down how Vice President JD Vance is positioning himself as the heir to the post-Trump Republican Party—and why his rhetoric, alliances, and refusal to condemn extremists signal a dangerous shift in U.S. leadership. Using recent events at Turning Point USA, Vance's public statements about race, religion, and “heritage Americans,” and the growing influence of openly extremist voices on the right, this essay examines how exclusionary ideologies are being repackaged as patriotism and “big tent” conservatism. It also explores the internal fractures within the GOP, the appeal of these ideas to younger voters, and why attempts to accommodate white nationalism inevitably undermine democracy itself. This is not just a partisan debate—it's a warning about what happens when leaders blur the line between political strategy and racial extremism. Independent media has never been more important.

Welcome to The B-Side! Here we talk about movie stars! Not the movies that made them famous or kept them famous, but the ones that they made in between. Today we discuss America's everyman and one of its most indelible movie stars: James Stewart! Our returning guest is our dear friend Mitchell Beaupre, Head of Editorial at Letterboxd and our B-Sides today include Vivacious Lady, You Gotta Stay Happy, No Highway in the Sky, The Far Country, and Fools' Parade. We debate what it is exactly that made Stewart so relatable and endearing to millions, we marvel at his WWII service and how it affected his on-screen demeanor, and we acknowledge that even though he starred in dozens of westerns most people still remember him better as George Bailey from It's a Wonderful Life. Mitchell, Conor, and I discuss the incredible films he made with Anthony Mann, the late pictures he made with Andrew V. McLaglen, and the early starring roles in his career. We also mention how he was one of the most reliable box office stars over decades, a legendary ladies man in his younger days, and a staunch conservative throughout his life. There's also the already-infamous trailer for the forthcoming James Stewart biopic. Wow, does it look bad! Listen below and subscribe here.

New York's oldest law firm answered the outstanding question surrounding its ability to remain independent with a resounding no when it announced a merger with Hogan Lovells last week. As Bloomberg Law reporter Meghan Tribe tells it, Cadwalader Wickersham & Taft had been in a gradual decline since the 2008 global financial crisis. It also failed to adapt to the new reality of the legal industry in which lateral hiring is not just commonplace but necessary for a firm's survival, she said. On this episode of our podcast, On The Merits, Tribe gets into what transpired that forced the more than 200-year-old firm to put itself up for sale, and also what made Hogan leap at the chance to merge with Cadwalader. Additionally, Tribe talks about what the tie-up could mean for the pro bono deal Cadwalader struck with the Trump administration earlier this year.

But, who was this man? And is describing something as "Byronic" a good thing? Spoiler: uh-oh.

The Newsmongers unfolds the seedy history of tabloid journalism, from the first printed ‘Strange Newes' sheets of the sixteenth century to the sensationalism of today's digital age. The narrative weaves from Regency gossip writers through New York's ‘yellow journalism' battles to the ‘sex and sleaze' Sun of the 1970s; and from the Brexit-backing populism of the Daily Mail to the celebrity-obsessed Mail Online of the 2000s. Colourful figures such as Daniel Defoe, Lord Northcliffe, Hugh Cudlipp, Rupert Murdoch and Robert Maxwell are brought to vivid life. From scandalous confessions to the Leveson Inquiry, the book explores journalists' unscrupulous methods, taking in phone hacking, privacy breaches and bribery. In the digital era, popular journalism succumbed to ‘churnalism' while a certain royal is seeking revenge on the tabloids today. Terry Kirby is Senior Lecturer in Journalism at Goldsmiths, University of London, and author of The Trials of the Baroness (1991). He has been a journalist for more than four decades and was a founder member of staff at The Independent, where he worked for more than twenty years in a number of roles, including crime correspondent, night editor and chief reporter Morteza Hajizadeh is a Ph.D. graduate in English from the University of Auckland in New Zealand.

The Newsmongers unfolds the seedy history of tabloid journalism, from the first printed ‘Strange Newes' sheets of the sixteenth century to the sensationalism of today's digital age. The narrative weaves from Regency gossip writers through New York's ‘yellow journalism' battles to the ‘sex and sleaze' Sun of the 1970s; and from the Brexit-backing populism of the Daily Mail to the celebrity-obsessed Mail Online of the 2000s. Colourful figures such as Daniel Defoe, Lord Northcliffe, Hugh Cudlipp, Rupert Murdoch and Robert Maxwell are brought to vivid life. From scandalous confessions to the Leveson Inquiry, the book explores journalists' unscrupulous methods, taking in phone hacking, privacy breaches and bribery. In the digital era, popular journalism succumbed to ‘churnalism' while a certain royal is seeking revenge on the tabloids today. Terry Kirby is Senior Lecturer in Journalism at Goldsmiths, University of London, and author of The Trials of the Baroness (1991). He has been a journalist for more than four decades and was a founder member of staff at The Independent, where he worked for more than twenty years in a number of roles, including crime correspondent, night editor and chief reporter Morteza Hajizadeh is a Ph.D. graduate in English from the University of Auckland in New Zealand. His research interests are Cultural Studies; Critical Theory; Environmental History; Medieval (Intellectual) History; Gothic Studies; 18th and 19th Century British Literature. YouTube channel. Twitter.

Johannes Vermeer is one of the greatest painters in history, yet the man himself remains an enigma. But have we finally solved the mystery of one of his most famous paintings? On this episode we're joined by Andrew Graham-Dixon, one of Britain's best known art historians. In his new book Vermeer: A Life Lost and Found, he sets out a radical reappraisal of Vermeer's life, beliefs and the meaning of his paintings. He shows us an artist immersed in the religious debates of the Dutch Republic in the 17th Century, and argues that this atmosphere is key to understanding Vermeer, the man and his work.   In conversation with Hannah Kaye, Graham-Dixon also shares his illuminating new interpretation of The Girl with the Pearl Earring. Graham-Dixon is one of the leading art critics and arts television presenters in the English-speaking world. He has presented numerous landmark series on art for the BBC and other broadcasters, and has a distinguished record of public service in the visual arts.  For over twenty years, he published a weekly art column – first as Chief Art Critic for The Independent, and later for The Sunday Telegraph.  If you'd like to become a Member and get access to all our full conversations, plus all of our Members-only content, just visit intelligencesquared.com/membership to find out more.

​Attorney General Pam Bondi's recent announcement of releasing additional files related to Jeffrey Epstein has been met with skepticism, particularly following the underwhelming "Phase 1" release. The initial batch, which Bondi had hyped as containing "sick" revelations, primarily consisted of previously available flight logs and heavily redacted documents, offering little new information. This anticlimactic disclosure led to disappointment among the public and conservative influencers, who had anticipated more substantial revelations. Critics argue that the fanfare surrounding the release was disproportionate to its actual content, raising questions about the transparency and intentions behind these actions.In response to the backlash, Bondi has assured the public that more comprehensive documents will be forthcoming, blaming the initial shortcomings on the FBI's alleged withholding of thousands of pages. She has demanded that these documents be delivered to her office promptly, emphasizing a commitment to full transparency. However, given the previous overpromising and underdelivering, many remain skeptical about the authenticity and potential impact of the upcoming releases.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsoruce:Attorney General Pam Bondi insists more Jeffrey Epstein files are being released – despite disastrous ‘phase 1' | The Independent

“If you want to go fast, go alone. If you want to go far, go together.” — African proverbIn today's episode, "Here's an Uncomfortable Idea: Want More Success? Be Less Independent," host Jacquette offers candid and vulnerable insight into why fierce independence may actually be holding you back.She challenges the myth that success is a solo pursuit, urging listeners to lean into interdependence instead. Nothing thrives in isolation—not even nature. True growth comes from collaboration, delegation, and the sharing of wisdom. If you want to succeed in money, business, and life, embrace the people and resources that fuel your journey. Independence has its place, but when paired with interdependence, it becomes a force strong enough to overcome even the toughest obstacles.For Clarity: https://www.jacquettetimmons.com/1-1-coaching www.jacquettetimmons.comwww.jacquettetimmons.com/digital-productswww.instagram.com/jacquettemtimmonsBuyMeACoffee.com/JacquetteSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Today's Headlines: Trump escalated toward open conflict with Venezuela by labeling the country a “foreign terrorist organization,” blockading sanctioned oil tankers, and laying groundwork that looks a lot like a path to war — even as U.S. oil companies quietly signal they're not interested in going back. Abroad, Britain's MI6 chief warned that tech billionaires and algorithms are reshaping global power faster than politicians, while Putin doubled down on threatening Ukraine with either invasion or “negotiation,” plus some nuclear saber-rattling for flair. Back home, Trump expanded his travel ban, House Republicans briefly rebelled to pass a doomed healthcare bill, and Jack Smith told Congress he found proof Trump tried to overturn the 2020 election and obstruct justice. The FCC chair openly claimed the agency isn't independent from the president — then removed the word “independent” from its website mid-hearing — as the Senate confirmed Elon Musk's friend to run NASA. Meanwhile, Dan Bongino announced he's quitting the FBI, Alan Dershowitz floated a very “it depends” take on a third Trump term, Ghislaine Maxwell moved to toss her conviction, and the DOJ is legally required to release the Epstein files tomorrow. On the crime front, the Brown University shooter is still at large, an MIT professor's killing is now a homicide investigation, Nick Reiner appeared in court for his parents' murders, and — in truly end-times energy — the Oscars are leaving ABC for YouTube.
