A key focus is the Supreme Court showdown over birthright citizenship, where the Trump administration is attempting to deny citizenship to certain children born in the U.S., a move Romero calls an attack on one of the core promises of the Fourteenth Amendment. They also explore what happens when the government pushes the boundaries of compliance with court rulings and what that means for the rule of law.Tune in for a compelling conversation about the cases that could help define the next chapter of civil liberties law in the United States.Links:Anthony Romero >>> ACLU pageConnect:Episode Transcripts >>> Stanford Legal Podcast WebsiteStanford Legal Podcast >>> LinkedIn PageRich Ford >>>  Twitter/XPam Karlan >>> Stanford Law School PageDiego Zambrano >>> Stanford Law School PageStanford Law School >>> Twitter/XStanford Lawyer Magazine >>> Twitter/X(00:00) Introduction and ACLU's Rapidly Expanding Docket(02:30) Small but Mighty—ACLU vs. Federal Power(07:00) Inside a Burgeoning Docket(11:30) Birthright Citizenship at the Supreme Court(16:00) Enforcement at Scale and the Rule of Law(21:00): An Inflection Point in Public Sentiment Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

In this episode of Talking Industrial Automation, host Lisa Richter sits down with Guru Thakkar, Director of Engineering at Inflexion Point in Neptune, New Jersey. With more than 20 years of experience across pharmaceutical, life sciences, food & beverage, utilities, and building automation, Guru shares how disciplined front-end engineering, standardization, and strong technical fundamentals set the stage for long-term success. From scaling Inflection Point organically from 40 to over 100 employees, to supporting Operation Warp Speed during COVID, Guru explains why early design decisions, rigorous testing, and lifecycle thinking matter more than ever. The conversation explores: What it really means to "put the brain" into industrial systems Why turnkey integration across all layers (from sensors to enterprise systems) is becoming essential How system integrators are navigating AI, cybersecurity, and digital transformation The growing complexity of pharma manufacturing and single-use equipment Why trust, repeat business, and sound non-technical business practices drive sustainable growth Whether you're an end user, engineer, or integrator, this episode offers a thoughtful look at how intelligent systems are shaping the future of process automation—and why fundamentals still matter in a rapidly evolving landscape.

This week, I sat down with Andrew Hynard to unpack a corporate career that spans more than three decades at JLL, the chief executive leadership of one of London's most prestigious estates, and a post-executive chapter advising some of the most interesting property businesses in the UK. Andrew spent the majority of his career at JLL focused on Capital Markets, ultimately becoming Deputy Chairman of the UK business. He later became Chief Executive of The Howard de Walden Estate, overseeing 90 acres in Marylebone with a portfolio heavily weighted toward private healthcare in and around Harley Street. Today, he advises businesses including Clipstone Investment Management, Howard Group, Orega, Taurus Developments and Love Ventures, a VC investor in early stage technology companies   In this conversation, Andrew reflects on growing up as the son of a surveyor in Hastings and deciding at just ten years old that property would be his path. We explore his early decision to specialise in investment rather than rotate through departments, and why he later regretted not gaining broader technical grounding despite accelerating his capital markets career. We go deep into his time at JLL, including the cultural and strategic forces behind the merger with King Sturge, how he navigated internal politics without burning bridges, and why playing the long game and treating people with decency became his defining leadership philosophy. Andrew also shares the transition from advisory to client side when he became CEO of Howard de Walden, what it really means to run a £3–4 billion estate in one of London's most complex submarkets, and why attracting world class healthcare operators like Cleveland Clinic was a defining moment. We then turn to today's market. Andrew gives a candid view on the state of UK real estate, the leadership reset across major advisory firms, where growth is actually coming from, why income will dominate returns for the foreseeable future, and why he believes we are approaching an inflection point rather than a falling knife moment. Finally, we explore his portfolio of advisory roles, his work in venture capital, and why mentoring the next generation is one of the most important investments he now makes.   Key Topics Covered in This Episode ✅ From Hastings to Deputy Chairman How Andrew set his sights on property at age ten and built a 30+ year capital markets career. ✅ The King Sturge Merger The first conversation that led to one of the most significant UK advisory mergers of the past two decades. ✅ Advisory vs Client Side What changes when you move from broker to principal and how to make that transition successfully. ✅ Leading the Howard de Walden Estate Healthcare, tenant mix strategy, stakeholder management and long term estate stewardship. ✅ The State of the UK Market Flat growth, tentative optimism, income driven returns and why 2025 could be a turning point. ✅ Leadership Change Across UK Agencies Why so many CEOs have changed and what the next generation must get right. ✅ Building a Post Executive Portfolio Advisory roles, venture capital, mentoring and giving back to the industry. And of course, I asked Andrew the big question: Who are the People, what Property, and which Place would you invest in if you had £500 million to deploy? If you have thoughts or questions about this episode, drop them in the comments. I'd love to hear your take.

Kevin Hincks turns to what he considers a "vital" trading session for Friday. Amazon (AMZN) and Alphabet's (GOOGL) massive CapEx projection for 2026 spooked investors and accelerated an already intense week of selling. Kevin's advice: watch the price action throughout Friday, as a rebound can signal a resurgence in the AI trade. Bitcoin and gold also set the foundation for gains ahead of the opening bell. ======== Schwab Network ========Empowering every investor and trader, every market day.Options involve risks and are not suitable for all investors.

For the next two weeks we'll be talking about all things NAMM and getting into some of the exciting innovations we spotted on the show floor, along with some trends that we noticed this year, starting with AI's inflection point in the music industry. Last year, the conversation around AI was tense with creators expressing fear over being replaced by AI. This year, we saw more AI tools designed to support creators, and in some case, become integrated directly into software and hardware that musicians already know and use.In this episode, you'll hear two conversations from NAMM that capture this shift.  Daniel Roland from LANDR discusses how creator-first AI tools are evolving, LANDR's new Layers feature that adds real musician performances through AI, and why the technology is becoming less about replacement and more about expanding creative possibility. (Recorded in the John Lennon Educational Tour Bus). Jun Usui from Yamaha demos a prototype that integrates Boomy's AI sample generation directly into Yamaha's Seqtrak hardware, showing a glimpse into a future where AI lives in your instruments, not just the cloud.   The news US TikTok App Uninstalls Jump 150% Following Transfer to US Ownership TikTok users in the US can't write 'Epstein' or see anti-Trump videos Social network UpScrolled sees surge in downloads following TikTok's US takeover | TechCrunch Report: music is now a third of all viewing time on YouTube Stationhead and Mellomanic Merge, UMG Invests In 'Ultimate' Direct-to-Fan Platform Native Instruments GmbH is in preliminary insolvency - CDM Create Digital Music   The Music Tectonics podcast goes beneath the surface of the music industry to explore how technology is changing the way business gets done.

Meghan Joyce calls Palantir's (PLTR) latest earnings an "inflection point" for the company. While the AI software giant's international sales remain weak, its 137% year-over-year commercial revenue growth is a metric Meghan believes can't be ignored. As for Christopher Davis, he agrees with positivity backing the growth outlook but remains cautious on Palantir under future presidential administrations. ======== Schwab Network ========Empowering every investor and trader, every market day.Options involve risks and are not suitable for all investors.

In Episode 115 of Taking It Back, Adel Nero, Zak Paine, and Frankie Val return after a break for an unscripted discussion covering tax revolt sentiment, widespread welfare fraud, and the implications of Nicolás Maduro's removal. The episode opens with casual catch-up and audience interaction before moving into growing public frustration over income taxes, IRS enforcement capacity, and calls to end withholding. The hosts debate the risks and realities of tax resistance, executive authority, and whether structural change must come through Congress or cultural pressure. The conversation then shifts to fraud investigations in Minnesota, the scale of welfare and healthcare abuse, and comparisons to Pentagon spending and audit failures. The latter half of the show focuses heavily on Venezuela, examining the Maduro operation, cartel dynamics, CIA involvement, oil leverage, election infrastructure, and why this moment could signal a larger geopolitical shift. The episode closes with discussion on housing consolidation, corporate ownership of single-family homes, economic pressure on younger Americans, and cautious optimism about recent policy moves.

Geophysicist Stefan Burns and legendary astrologer, psychic, and researcher Barbara Hand Clow join Emilio Ortiz for a historic, first-ever three-way conversation exploring the interstellar object known as 3I/ATLAS — and why the next 72 hours may mark a before-and-after moment for Earth and human consciousness. As 3I/ATLAS approaches Earth during a rare cosmic window, this conversation bridges geophysics, space science, astrology, psychic perception, and consciousness research to unpack what this object may represent beyond conventional comet explanations.In this latest update, Stefan Burns shares geophysical and astronomical insights into 3I/ATLAS, interstellar objects, Jupiter's role in the solar system, and why this flyby is drawing unprecedented attention. Barbara Hand Clow brings a multidimensional perspective, connecting astrology, galactic cycles, consciousness shifts, and humanity's evolutionary timeline. Together, they explore whether 3I/ATLAS could be a catalyst for planetary change, timeline shifts, or a deeper awakening — and why the days ahead matter more than most people realize. This is a conversation about science, psychic insight, cosmic timing, and what may be coming next for Earth.___________________PODCAST CHAPTERS00:00 - Stefans Burns & Barbara Hand Clow Intro4:06 – Experiencing 3I Atlas Viscerally & Energetically4:37 – Prophecy of the Aquarian Age8:37 – Brain Geometry, Dimensions & the Blue Brain Project10:53 – 3I Atlas Trajectory, Solar Wind & Planetary Signatures13:13 – Earthquake Precognition & Humanity's Lost Intuition15:32 – The Great Separation17:46 – Pleiadian Origins & the True History of Humanity22:17 – Campi Flegrei, Super Volcanoes & Media Silence26:01 – Ancient Cataclysms & Comet Impacts29:38 – Is the Catalyst From Earth or From the Cosmos?38:15 – Galactic Center Alignment 42:55 – Planetary Alignments & the Coming Resonance Event43:24 – Precognitive Dreams: Sun–Earth Shock Events45:17 – Sacred Sites, Giza, Nazca & Earth Stabilization49:10 – Precession Cycles & the 2023–2027 Shift51:13 – Science and Consciousness Reunite53:23 – Alien Colonization vs Conscious Seeding55:39 – Jupiter, Galactic Moons & Control of the Solar System57:59 – Asteroid Bennu & the Building Blocks of Life1:00:47 – Mars & Planetary Reprogramming1:06:39 – Mercury–Uranus Relationship1:07:59 – The Canopy of Light Explained1:09:20 – Platonic Solids & Solar System Upgrades1:13:10 – Nuclear Detonations & Planetary Trauma1:15:33 – Preparing to Receive 3I Atlas Codes1:22:20 – Personal Awakenings Triggered by 3I Atlas1:25:57 – Questions for 3I Atlas Itself1:27:48 – Barnard's Star & Future Stellar Flybys___________________Guest(s): Stefan Burns, Geophysicist & Researcher✦ Website | https://www.stefanburns.com/✦ Wild Free Organic | https://wildfreeorganic.com/✦ YouTube | ‪@StefanBurns‬ ✦ Instagram |   / stefanburnsofficial  Guest(s): Barbara Hand Clow✦ Website | https://handclow2012.com/✦ All Books by Barbara | https://handclow2012.com/books/Host: Emilio Ortiz✦ IG |   / iamemilioortiz  ✦ Subscribe to Channel |    / emilioortiz  ✦ Join The Deep Dive Membership | https://iamemilioortiz.com/the-deep-d...Special Offerings to Support the Show:✦ Make a One-Time or Recurring Donation on PayPal

Breakthrough science has never been stronger — yet patients still miss life-saving therapies.Despite decades of innovation, most precision medicines fail at the last mile of healthcare delivery.The problem isn't discovery. It's how science, capital, and systems are aligned — or not.Possessing elite science is no longer enough to win in the multi-trillion-dollar biopharma ecosystem.As innovation shifts from West to East and from treatment to prevention, leadership teams struggle to bridge scientific depth with incentives, execution, and real-world delivery. Capital follows speed and scale — not intention — and healthcare systems built decades ago are failing to keep up.In this episode, Alasdair Milton, Principal at KPMG, explains where innovation actually breaks — and what must change for cures to reach patients at scale. From diagnostics and data silos to capital allocation and prevention models, this conversation reframes the next decade of precision medicine.

With Matt George, CEO of Merlin Labs Many firms chasing autonomous ground-vehicles have relied on SPACs to reach the public markets, and now Merlin Labs wants to bring autonomy to the skies. The Boston-based startup is developing an AI-powered “pilot,” the Merlin Pilot, designed to manage full “takeoff-to-touchdown” flights across a wide range of aircraft, from light planes to heavy transports. This week, we talk with Merlin Labs CEO Matt George about why the company sat out the first wave of SPAC-driven aerospace mania, and why partnering with Inflection Point Acquisition Corp. IV (Nasdaq: BACQ) feels like the right moment to go public. Matt explains that, in aviation, the use cases for autonomy can be more immediate and valuable than on the ground, from reducing crew needs on cargo and transport flights to enabling fully uncrewed operations in military and civil aviation. We also explore the broader macro conditions driving demand higher, and where the market for autonomous flight stands today. How fast could it grow, and how high could it fly?  

Today's episode is one of the most important conversations we've had on My DPC Story. As of July 4th, we are standing at a true inflection point for Direct Primary Care—and for every physician, employer, broker, advocate and patient who believes primary care should be personal, accessible, and free from insurance middlemen.In this special session, I'm joined by Jay Keese, Executive Director of the Direct Primary Care Coalition, who has spent more than a decade at the front lines in Washington, DC. Together, we break down what HR 1—the major tax bill signed into law this year—actually means for DPC. This includes:The historic win: HSAs are now fully compatible with Direct Primary Care for the first time ever.What patients can do starting January 1: Use tax-free HSA dollars to pay for DPC memberships without losing HSA eligibility.How this changes the landscape: New opportunities with employers, brokers, high-deductible plans, and even ACA bronze/catastrophic plans.What stays the same, what's evolving, and what rulemaking from the IRS will finalize.What's coming next: How DPC can scale responsibly and sustainably as demand accelerates.If you've ever wondered how policy actually becomes reality—or what the future of DPC looks like on a national scale—you'll want to listen closely.

Voyager CEO and former head of R&D at Biogen Al Sandrock is more optimistic than ever about the prospect of bringing clinically meaningful solutions to patients with Alzheimer's disease and other neurodegenerative disorders. The threads of progress are finally coming together, he said in a special episode of the BioCentury This Week podcast. From the first disease-modifying therapies for Alzheimer's disease, to a growing biomarker toolkit, to an expanding set of genetically validated targets in other neurodegenerative conditions — and, crucially, to delivery vehicles capable of broadly and deeply penetrating the brain — neurology drug development may be poised to accelerate.

On October 30, US President Trump and China's leader Xi Jinping met in Busan, South Korea. It was their first face-to-face meeting in 6 years. There was a lot at stake in this meeting for the US and China, as well as for the rest of the world. In my view, the outcome is best described as a fragile truce. The path forward for US-China relations remains uncertain – greater stability and predictability is possible, but not assured. Intense competition across several domains, especially technology, is likely.Today's episode focuses on the Trump-Xi summit and the future of US-China relations, featuring Mr. Dennis Wilder. Dennis is a senior fellow for the Initiative for U.S.-China Dialogue on Global Issues at Georgetown University, where he previously served as the managing director, and assistant professor of the practice in Asian studies in the School of Foreign Service. He served on President George W. Bush's NSC first as director for China and then as senior director for Asian Affairs. He also had a distinguished career in the CIA, where he held many positions, the last of which was senior editor of the Presidential Daily Brief.  Timestamps:[00:00] Introduction[1:57] Trump-Xi Summit: A Win for China? [09:03] Fact Sheet Discrepancies [14:37] Trump Administration's China Strategy[16:47] Achieving Chinese Exceptionalism[19:20] China's Confidence and Potential Instability[21:26] Why No Taiwan Mention? [24:48] An Inflection Point for Greater Stability? [27:50] Indo-Pacific View of the US-China Relationship

My guest on today's show is Matt Spielman, Founder and CEO of Inflection Point Partners, an executive coaching firm that works with leaders primarily in investment organizations. Matt first joined me on the show four years ago, where we discussed his path into executive coaching, inflection points in his career, and his GPS system that aligns an individual's goals and helps execute. Our conversation this time builds on that foundation with what Matt has learned since. We explore the challenges of leadership at the top, the personality dynamics that shape investment organizations, and the essential role of feedback, empathy, and appreciation in managing people. We discuss the evolution of Inflection Point from one-on-one coaching to firmwide leadership systems, and the role artificial intelligence may play in scaling his work going forward.
