In this newscast: Governor Mike Dunleavy and U.S. Senator Lisa Murkowski toured the Juneau neighborhoods that experienced record-breaking flooding earlier this week. Now, residents are beginning to recover and assess the damage, and city and state officials are working together to figure out next steps; The U.S. Interior Department says it reviewed over a million pages of federal records to produce a two-volume report on Native boarding schools. Interior Secretary Deb Haaland released the second volume last month. The report also makes recommendations --that include apologies to communities for forcibly taking children from their homes to assimilate them -- as well as programs that offer healing through language and culture; Southeast Alaska has almost a full week of sunshine ahead, but those blue skies will be slightly dingy with smoke from wildfires in Canada.

This is a replay of an episode from September 2022. In recognition of National Day of Remembrance for U.S. Indian Boarding Schools on September 30, we are discussing the history of American Indian boarding schools and the continued legacy of this part of our history. Hosts Daniela and Donnie welcome Marcus Monenerkit from the Heard Museum to the podcast to speak about the history of American Indian boarding schools and the Away From Home: American Indian Boarding School Stories exhibit at the Heard Museum.  Monenerkit shares about what students and families experienced, including a bit of his own family's experiences and about the American Indian boarding schools now present on Steele Indian School Park in central Phoenix. He speaks to the trauma and challenges students and their families faced and how that continues to affect American Indian individuals and families today. He also details some of the policy and mindsets that led to the creation of American Indian boarding schools, how they changed over time, and what current-day American Indian boarding schools are like today. Here are a few resources connected to today's discussion: Away From Home: American Indian Boarding School Stories exhibit at the Heard Museum Video about the history of American Indian Boarding Schools from the Heard Museum Statement by U.S. Department of the Interior Secretary Deb Haaland on the Truth and Healing Commission on Indian Boarding School Policies Act Learn more about the Arizona K12 Center at azk12.org.

This week's episode begins with a dive into the corruption surrounding Interior Secretary Deb Haaland and the ongoing investigation into her actions. They discuss the weakness of President Biden on a global scale amidst the war in Israel. Could terrorism happen in the U.S. by coming through our open border? Is it already happening? With the crisis reaching epic levels, Democrats in New Mexico still don't want a border wall, but Biden might have to re-build it. Steve blasts the ridiculously out-of-touch statement from the Democratic Party of NM claiming border fencing should be removed.

Correction: A previous version of this episode incorrectly stated when Interior Secretary Deb Haaland began her listening tour. Haaland started the listening tour last summer, and the tour has lasted for longer than one year The audio has been updated to remove the error.In a moment of reckoning, survivors of the U.S.-run Indian boarding schools are speaking out and trying to hold the U.S. government accountable.Read more:For almost a century, the U.S. government took Native American children from their families and forced them to attend residential boarding schools. These schools – which were intended to assimilate the children into White culture – left lasting impressions on the students who attended. Many suffered from physical, emotional and sexual abuse at the hands of school employees.While the history of Indian boarding schools in the United States is largely forgotten, survivors of these institutions are starting to speak out and share their experiences. Reporter Dana Hedgpeth spoke to several survivors who chose to tell their stories publicly for the first time. Today, what it means for Native Americans to speak openly about the abuse they survived, and what it would mean to hold the United States accountable for its role in running the nearly 400 Indian boarding schools across the country.

In about two months, Interior Secretary Deb Haaland is expected to formally approve a new National Outer Continental Shelf Oil and Gas Leasing Program, putting a five-year offshore leasing plan back on the books after the country's previous program expired over a year ago. As one could imagine, the oil industry was not pleased to hear that only three lease sales for acres in the Gulf of Mexico would be conducted over the next five years. American Petroleum Institute President and CEO Mike Sommers joined the podcast to share the industry's perspective on the new offshore leasing plan, its impact on broader supply and demand dynamics and next steps. Stick around for Binish Azhar with the Market Minute, a look at near-term oil market drivers.

Steve Pearce sat in the courtroom during RPNM's redistricting trial; he recaps all that happened, including the revelation of text messages from Senator Mimi Stewart that exposed the Democrats' plan to gerrymander. Stay tuned because this week's guests are Delora Hesuse and Alice Benally, members of the Shii Shi Keyah Association and Navajo allottees in Chaco Canyon. Their organization advocates for Navajo allottee rights that have come under attack by Interior Secretary Deb Haaland and the Biden administration.

Kevin McCarthy was voted out as speaker of the House Tuesday, a first in U.S. history. It's now thrown the House and Republican leadership into chaos, but that's not necessarily a bad thing. Eight Republicans voted with Democrats to oust McCarthy, and ironically, it was the RINOs who were mad about it. Interim Speaker Patrick McHenry expressed his anger by furiously banging the gavel after announcing McCarthy's ousting. Where was that anger when we were endlessly funding Ukraine? Where was that anger when January 6 political prisoners were being unjustly persecuted? Where is this anger for issues that actually matter to conservatives? The truth is Republicans in the House weren't doing anything, and if this causes a little chaos, then maybe that's exactly what is needed. Who should fill the vacated speakership? There's only one man for the job, and that man is Donald J. Trump. It might sound crazy, but there is a scenario in which Trump could get the position, and reports indicate people have reached out to him about it. If you need more proof, rapper Sexyy Red channeled the voice of the people speaking with Theo Von, saying we need Trump back. Now Sexyy Red's music is garbage and she wants Trump for reasons that aren't great, but the cultural shift is undeniable. A leftist activist and poet was stabbed to death in New York city after trying to reason with a psychopath with a knife at 4 a.m. While the incident is atrocious and we mourn the loss of life, this is what happens when you push Democrat policies and lawlessness in big cities. It's not going to get better, and unfortunately these people are so disconnected from reality that they don't recognize the problem they're creating. Interior Secretary Deb Haaland appeared in a video with drag queen Pattie Gonia at the Stonewall National Monument. No, the video is not a parody. We've simply gone that far off the deep end. Ilhan Omar got caught thirsting over Matt Gaetz while he was delivering a speech and sparked some fantastic memes.

Paul is in Savannah, Georgia. He discusses what has brought him there. Paul also recaps the OAKNM education conference which took place on Friday.  The shooters who precipitated MLG's anti-gun health order were captured. They have (not surprisingly) been involved with the criminal justice system in the past and were not likely to be deterred by MLG's anti-gun orders. A MLG-appointed New Mexico district judge rules that the homeless can't be removed from public spaces.  How will MLG's potential EV mandate actually be enforced? Paul has a detailed answer. Interior Secretary Deb Haaland's daughter has close ties to the Cuban government. This is especially concerning because hostile foreign nations have a long track record of supporting anti-energy forces in the US.  Our op-ed on MLG's gun order and her long-standing disdain for "democracy" ran statewide.

Plus, the Biden administration's new rule vastly curtailing the scope of federal clean water protections is set to take effect today.   For more news on energy and the environment, subscribe to Power Switch, our free evening newsletter: https://www.politico.com/power-switch And for even deeper coverage and analysis, read our Morning Energy newsletter by subscribing to POLITICO Pro: https://subscriber.politicopro.com/newsletter-archive/morning-energy   Catherine Morehouse is an energy reporter for POLITICO.  Ben Lefebvre is an energy reporter for POLITICO.  Nirmal Mulaikal is a POLITICO audio host-producer.  Kara Tabor is an audio producer for POLITICO.

Republican lawmakers are raising concerns about a Biden administration official's questionable family ties to far-left groups lobbying lawmakers. U.S. Rep.

Live from the Heart of America—I'm Steve Gruber—ready to deliver an inclusive and diverse discussion on the most important topics of the day—giving you better analysis and insight that anyone else—shining a spotlight on the cockroaches of the swamp—and delivering truth and justice just when hope was starting to fade—   Here are the 3 Big Things you need to know to start today—   Number One— The California reparations panel is demanding an apology from the state for slavery—which was never legal there—and a down payment to black people—Now!   Number Two— Bud Light continues to collapse and could soon be replaced as the top selling beer in America—as a result of reverse cancel culture—for its ill-advised advertising effort with a transgender influencer—   Number Three— I sit here at my desk each night and try to decide what is the most important thing I can tell you about to start the day—   And with the avalanche of failures by Joe Biden and his ever more incompetent team—it is sometimes a tough call—   So far this week we have discussed the hidden collapse of American hospitals that is being driven in large part by terrible government policies and by insurance companies and others making bad decisions that have already forced 200 hospitals to shut down—with hundreds more sitting on the edge of economic failure—   I have covered the border extensively as Title 42 is about to be lifted and tens of thousands of illegals are expected to flood into the country with little if any background checks at all—   And I was going to start there again today—but then I saw the most remarkable jaw dropping testimony on Capital Hill that clearly shows the deep reach of Chinese Propaganda on this country—and far worse—on those working in the Biden Administration—   I mean I cannot decide if this is blatant incompetence—or a willful pursuit of a cult like mentality—turning the Green New Deal into a fanatical religious following by those serving in the Biden Administration—and millions more that have been sucked into the vortex of just trusting everything they are told—   First of all—lets look at this, portions of Michigan's Upper Peninsula were pummeled with more than. 30 inches of snow to start this week—and its MAY!   That's right—it appears that places like Marquette and Sault Ste Marie—are several feet above average for the year—from what I can tell Marquette is like 7 to 8 feet above average—   The same is true all the way out in California—where they have had the biggest snowpack in years—in fact all the doom and gloom predictions about Lake Meade and Lake Powell drying up from Climate Change has been silenced—as the drought conditions all over California—have ended! That's right, there is NO drought in California today—ZERO! Weird considering the Green New Dealers were telling us they would soon be in a once in a thousand years crisis—Wrong Again!   And when Ivey and I visited Santa Fe New Mexico a month ago—all the locals told us it was the most snow that area had seen in more than 20 years!   This is all very weird—considering the Climate Radicals that are ramming EV's down our throats while demanding gas stoves and air conditioners be outlawed—have been screaming for years that our kids would not even know what snow was—because they would almost certainly never see it!   In March of 2000—David Viner—declared to the whole world that within a few years—snow would no longer occur—gee—you may want to phone the folks in the Sierra Nevadas Dave—or Marquette—unless the power is still out—Just saying—   Anyway—so there I was listening to a Senate hearing where Josh Hawley of Missouri was asking some pretty simple questions of our Interior Secretary Deb Haaland—who is among those being the most aggressive in pursuit of destroying American Energy because the planet is so warm Michigan is getting 3 feet of snow to start May—   And it was a truly remarkable exchange—     And of course these are the same people telling you the border is secure—which—why wouldn't you believe them?   These messages about climate change—and border security and transgenderism—and America being racist—is all being fueled and funded by the Chinese—and the CCP—if you still do not understand that—then you are clearly refusing to accept the facts. Many of these anti-American themes are also funded by Russia—but not as mush lately as they are deep in a messy war with Ukraine—that is not going well—   So what about the border?   That's right US troops are headed to the border because obviously it is all under control—or maybe not huh?

The Rich Zeoli Show- Hour 4: According to a report from channel 8 WISH-TV in Indiana, Councilmember Ryan Webb has announced that he will now be identifying as a “lesbian woman of color.” Webb appeared on Fox News with Jesse Kelly to explain his decision to be his “true self” publicly for the first time. In response to the collapse of First Republic Bank, White House Press Secretary Karine Jean Pierre stated the Biden Administration is very confident there will be no more banking failures. Rachel Louise Ensign and Ben Eisen of The Wall Street Journal write, “[r]egulators seized First Republic Bank and struck a deal to sell the bulk of its operations to JPMorgan Chase Co., heading off a chaotic collapse that threatened to reignite the recent banking crisis. JPMorgan said it will assume all of First Republic's $92 billion in deposits—insured and uninsured. It is also buying most of the bank's assets, including about $173 billion in loans and $30 billion in securities.” You can read Ensign and Eisen's full report here: https://www.wsj.com/articles/first-republic-bank-is-seized-sold-to-jpmorgan-in-second-largest-u-s-bank-failure-5cec723 On Tuesday, Interior Secretary Deb Haaland testified at a Senate Energy and Natural Resources Committee hearing where she seemingly claimed there were too many jobs in America for “blue collar workers.” Senator Josh Hawley (R-MO) questioned Sec. Haaland about the Biden Administration's “clean energy” agenda and its habit of promoting reliance upon foreign nations for the mining of precious metals and minerals necessary for the development of batteries used in electric cars.

The Rich Zeoli Show- Hour 1: 3:05pm- According to The Wall Street Journal Editorial Board, the Biden Administration is seeking to implement a new rule which “will raise mortgage fees for borrowers with good credit to subsidize higher-risk borrowers. Under the rule, which goes into effect May 1, home buyers with a good credit score over 680 will pay about $40 more each month on a $400,000 loan, and upward depending on the size of the loan. Those who make down payments of 20% on their homes will pay the highest fees. Those payments will then be used to subsidize higher-risk borrowers through lower fees.” You can read the full editorial here: https://www.wsj.com/articles/upside-down-mortgage-policy-212fd736 3:15pm- In response to the expiration of Title 42, President Joe Biden announced that he will dispatch 1,500 active-duty military personnel to the U.S. Southern Border to help prevent illegal border crossings from surging. 3:30pm- Flashback: During an interview with Ezra Klein in 2015, Senator Bernie Sanders (D-VT) said he vehemently opposed “open-borders” and claimed it was a right-wing proposal being supported by the Koch brothers—alleging that Republicans wanted relaxed border security in order to drive down the cost of labor and, subsequently, enhance the profits of large corporations. How has the Democrat party changed its stance on border security so drastically in just 8 years? 3:50pm- Flashback: In 2018, in response to the Trump Administration's decision to send troops to the U.S. Southern Border, then-Senator Kamala Harris claimed the act was “inappropriate” and “political”—so, then why is the Biden Administration doing the very same thing now? Was Harris simply attempting to politicize the issue in 2018? 4:05pm- During the Senate Judiciary Committee's hearing on Supreme Court Ethics Reform, Sen. Ted Cruz (R-TX) stated that the hearing's primary intention was to destroy the reputation of ideologically conservative Justices—specifically Justice Clarence Thomas. Sen. Cruz also condemned Senate Democrats for attempting to reduce funding for Justice security even after the attempted assassination of Justice Brett Kavanaugh following the release of a leaked draft of the court's decision in Dobbs v. Jackson Women's Health Organization, which ultimately upended Roe v. Wade. 4:15pm- The Wall Street Journal's Editorial Board writes, “Senate Democrats are holding another hearing on ‘Supreme Court Ethics Reform'…and it's important to understand that this isn't about ethics at all. This is another front in the political campaign to delegitimize the Supreme Court, with a goal of tarnishing its rulings and subjecting it to more political control.” You can read the full editorial here: https://www.wsj.com/articles/supreme-court-ethics-reform-hearing-senate-democrats-john-roberts-clarence-thomas-ketanji-brown-jackson-sonia-sotomayor-d0304d65?mod=opinion_lead_pos1 4:30pm- Nicholas Tomaino—Assistant Editorial Features Editor at The Wall Street Journal—joins The Rich Zeoli Show to discuss his latest editorial, “Politico Aims at Gorsuch and Misses.” Politico's Heidi Przybyla alleges that the sale of a property linked to Neil Gorsuch amounts to an ethics problem for the Supreme Court Justice. But as Tomaino points out, Justice Gorsuch disclosed the transaction and “didn't own the property directly. Rather, he held a 20% share in Walden Group LLC, a company he and two partners formed when they bought the house in 2005, before Mr. Gorsuch was a judge. The company listed the property for sale in 2015, asking $2.495 million, and sold it to Mr. Duffy two years later for $1.825 million.” So where is the ethics problem? You can read Tomaino's full editorial here: https://www.wsj.com/articles/politico-aims-at-gorsuch-and-misses-disclosure-colorado-ethics-reform-durbin-87a4fc50?mod=opinion_lead_pos7 4:55pm- During a recent episode of his podcast, Joe Rogan suggested that former Fox News host Tucker Carlson should appear on the online video platform Rumble. 5:05pm- The Drive at 5: President of Thomas Jefferson University Dr. Mark Tykocinski was reprimanded via email by the institution's Chief Executive Officer Joseph Cacchione for “liked” Tweets that questioned the efficacy of gender affirming surgeries for children. Should Dr. Tykocinski have been forced to apologize? Zeoli notes that it appears academia now only accepts dangerous versions of “group think.” 5:20pm- The Mystery Movie Clip: Rich forgets to ask caller twelve for the name of the film… 5:40pm- According to a new poll from the Harvard Kennedy School of Government, young Democrats are abnormally depressed.   6:05pm- According to a report from channel 8 WISH-TV in Indiana, Councilmember Ryan Webb has announced that he will now be identifying as a “lesbian woman of color.” Webb appeared on Fox News with Jesse Kelly to explain his decision to be his “true self” publicly for the first time. 6:30pm- In response to the collapse of First Republic Bank, White House Press Secretary Karine Jean Pierre stated the Biden Administration is very confident there will be no more banking failures. Rachel Louise Ensign and Ben Eisen of The Wall Street Journal write, “[r]egulators seized First Republic Bank and struck a deal to sell the bulk of its operations to JPMorgan Chase Co., heading off a chaotic collapse that threatened to reignite the recent banking crisis.

The train wreck that is the Joe Biden presidency continues.

House Republicans are expected to pass one of their biggest legislative priorities this week: a sprawling party-line energy package. The bill includes some of the GOP's most popular energy policies and pitches from the past decade, while also taking aim at President Joe Biden's climate policies. The package is considered an opening negotiating pitch by Republicans on energy permitting — a rare policy area that they hope will lead to a bipartisan deal. POLITICO's Josh Siegel breaks down the details of the bill and the state of play of negotiations. Plus, Interior Secretary Deb Haaland said the Biden administration will release its delayed five-year offshore oil and gas leasing plan in September.   Kelsey Tamborrino is a reporter covering clean energy.

Let's get into it: ARIZONA MIRROR: ARIZONA AG INVESTIGATES FAKE ELECTORSKris Mayes is investigating Trump's ‘fake electors,' focusing on threats to election workersBY: JEROD MACDONALD-EVOY - MARCH 3, 2023 7:12 AMWhile her predecessor used a dedicated election crimes division to investigate hundreds of bogus election fraud claims, Arizona Attorney General Kris Mayes says she will redirect the unit's focus to prosecute election-related threats and protect voting rights. “We are almost at a crisis situation in our state, in the sense that we now have a third of our counties experiencing the resignation of high-level election officialS due to death threats and harassment. That is unacceptable,” Former AG Mark Brnovich, the Republican who Mayes replaced this year, persuaded the state legislature to create the Election Integrity Unit so his office could have a dedicated team to investigate election fraud claims. But Brnovich buried what was arguably its most important work, a 10,000-hour investigation debunking hundreds of fraud claims related to the 2020 election. AG Mayes released the results of that investigation earlier this month. And the Election Integrity Unit is also investigating a much larger effort to undermine the will of the voters — The Trump / Eastman / Perry plot to send fraudulent slates of electors for former President Donald Trump to Congress on Jan. 6 - using the state's seal. While she was secretary of state, Gov. Katie Hobbs requested Brnovich investigate the criminal use of the state seal on false documents, but Brnovich did nothing. There were actually multiple “fake elector” schemes in Arizona. One was tied to the Arizona Republican Party and allegedly done at the request of the Trump campaign. It involved officials including former AZ GOP chairwoman Kelli Ward, state Sen. Jake Hoffman, state Sen. Anthony Kern and Turning Points USA CEO Tyler Bowyer. That fake electors scheme is also the subject of a federal investigation. Another group, the Sovereign Citizens of the Great State of Arizona, also created an alternate slate of electors for Trump, independent of the former President's desperate and nihilistic attempts to steal the 2020 election for himself.Since the 2020 election, threats to election officials nationwide have been increasing. Arizona has been at the forefront of those threats, with the FBI and U.S. Department of Justice getting involved in multiple cases. Most recently, veteran Cochise County Election Director Lisa Marra resigned. In her departure letter, she described a workplace that was hostile due to a monthslong saga in which Marra stood up to election conspiracists' insane demands and threats.Last year, the director of elections in Yavapai County resigned due to more than 18 months of threats she received. GOP-dominated Yavapai County has been a hotbed of hostile activity, with the white supremacist Oath Keepers intimidating voters before federal law enforcement got involved. AG Mayes said the images of armed men watching drop boxes “disturbed” her and set her on a path to begin speaking to police and sheriff's departments across the state. Making sure voters feel safe and secure when using a drop box will be a major priority, Mayes said, and if that means making sure that agents with the Attorney General's Office are present alongside law enforcement, then that might be the case. Currently, Mayes has 60 agents working directly with her in the office. Maricopa County Sheriff's deputies had to be dispatched in riot gear to deal with angry and armed crowds of butt-hurt snowflake losers (my term) during the 2020 election, when they descended upon the Maricopa County tabulation center. Deputies have had to dedicate security to election officials who faced threats as well.During the midterms, Maricopa County spent approximately $675,000 on security for the elections, a number the Sheriff expects to be “substantially” higher for the next election as he and his deputies are already preparing for the next wave of threats to election officials, as well as illegal activities around drop boxes. But for AG Mayes, the Arizona Election Integrity Unit can be a force that actually protects voting rights in the state. “We really want to repurpose the Election Integrity Unit to be an arm of the Attorney General's Office that is focused on protecting democracy in Arizona, protecting election officials against the rise of death threats and intimidation against them, and to protect the voting rights of every legally registered Arizonan.COLORADO NEWSLINE: Colorado Gov. Jared Polis and a group of Democratic lawmakers have introduced a slate of new bills that are meant to reduce health care costs in the state.BY: SARA WILSON - MARCH 3, 2023 2:04 PMThe bills would reduce premiums for Colorado Option health insurance plans, lower prescription drug costs and work to increase transparency around the huge profits being made by hospitals.“Saving people money on healthcare has been a top priority for me since Day One, and it's a big challenge,” said Gov. Polis. “We want to pound away on it every year, to find every cost driver and address it, to make sure Coloradans stop having to overpay for prescription drugs, insurance, and the health care that they need.”House Bill 23-1224 would work to improve the Colorado Option, the state-regulated plan offered by private insurers that passed just last year. The bill would make it easier for consumers to compare prices on standardized plans, and empower the state's insurance commissioner to hold carriers accountable for the cost reduction requirements in Colorado Option standardized plans.Another bill, House Bill 23-1225, addresses the state's prescription drug affordability board. It would allow the board to review any number of expensive prescription drugs instead of only a dozen as outlined in the legislation that created the board.The board, which has not yet reviewed the costs of any drugs so far, has the authority to set an upper payment limit if it determines a drug is unaffordable for Coloradans.House Bill 23-1227, would give more oversight power to the state's Division of Insurance over pharmacy benefit managers. “In some cases, PBMs are coming between consumers, health insurance plans, pharmacies and manufacturers while making very, very large profits. PBMs can be a part of the plan to save Coloradans money on prescription drugs, but they have to follow the rules,” Jodeh, one of the bill sponsors, said.Lawmakers highlighted other pieces of health care cost saving legislation:HB23-1226 would enhance current hospital financial transparency reporting in an effort to highlight what is driving up hospital costs in the state.COLORADO SUN: And, Almost four years after becoming the first state to cap insulin copayments, Colorado may limit what consumers pay for epinephrine autoinjectors, also known as EpiPens, which treat serious allergic reactions.In 2007, the wholesale price of a single EpiPen was about $47. Today, two brand-name autoinjectors cost just under $636 at a Walgreens in Denver, according to GoodRx. A proposed state law would cap out-of-pocket copays at $60 for a two-pack of Epi Pens.The bill is part of a nationwide push by states to address the soaring prices of lifesaving drugs. New Hampshire passed a law in 2020 requiring insurance to cover the autoinjectors, and Rhode Island lawmakers are considering a similar measure this year. No state has capped what consumers pay for EpiPens, though the New Jersey Senate passed a bill in June to do so; that measure is pending in the legislature's lower house.state Rep. Iman Jodeh, a bill sponsor, said “The need for EpiPens doesn't discriminate based on who you are. This unfortunate trend we're seeing of lifesaving medication being out of reach for so many people is something we need to end.”In 2019, Colorado became the first state to enact a law that set a $100 limit on monthly copays for insulin, a hormone that regulates the blood sugar of people with diabetes.Since then, 21 other states, plus Washington, D.C., have implemented laws limiting insulin costs. Congress imposed a $35 insulin copay cap for seniors on Medicare, and, in his recent State of the Union address, President Joe Biden called for expanding this cap to every American.KHN (Kaiser Health News) is a national newsroom that produces in-depth journalism about health issues.

There is no official statistic regarding how many Indigenous women go missing within the United States, and many families report the same experiences where law enforcement will dismiss a missing loved one's case. In a Montana Public Radio article from 2019, people who had missing loved ones reported that law enforcement officers had told them “that their daughters were drunk or had run away.” Interior Secretary Deb Haaland said “This work requires each of us to face our own trauma, to relive unimaginable pain, and visualize a future in which our loved ones are safe, and our communities have closure. We're here for our children, grandchildren, and relatives we have yet to meet.”The Not Invisible Act was signed into law in October 2020. It is the first bill in history to be introduced and passed by four U.S. congressional members who are enrolled in federally recognized tribes. Then- Representative Haaland, one of those four, spearheaded the bill during her time in Congress.At that time she said “A lack of urgency, transparency, and coordination has hampered our country's efforts to combat violence against American Indian and Alaska Native people” The commission established by the Not Invisible Act is a cross-jurisdictional advisory committee including law enforcement, tribal leaders, federal partners, service providers, family members of missing and murdered individuals, and survivors. In April, the commission will hold field hearings in Tulsa, Oklahoma, and Anchorage, Alaska. In June, more hearings are scheduled in Minneapolis, Minnesota, northern California and Albuquerque, New Mexico.  In July, a hearing will be held in Billings, Montana. A national, virtual field hearing is also planned for later in the summer. These field hearings will feature panel discussions and a public comment period.

Jason Crow D-Colorado praised the Department of Defense's decision to ensure service members have access to reproductive health care including abortion after he proposed a bill that would have done the same last fall. “After the Supreme Court's extreme and dangerous decision to take away a woman's fundamental right to an abortion, servicemembers struggled to access basic reproductive health care,” Crow said. “I applaud the Department of Defense for moving to protect our servicemembers and mitigate challenges of recruitment, readiness, and retention in the ranks. The servicemembers who fight for us should not have to fight for their own basic health care.”One of Crow's goals was to ensure that service members stationed in states that enacted abortion bans were allowed to travel to states, such as Colorado, where abortion is still legal.A Department of Defense news release said “Our Service members and their families do not control where they are stationed, and due to the nature of military service, are frequently required to travel or move to meet operational requirements. The efforts taken by the Department today will not only ensure that Service members and their families retain the fundamental right to make their own health care decisions, as well as ensuring they're afforded the time and flexibility needed to do so. In response, Rep. Lauren Boebert and fellow Republicans said they plan to maintain their laser focus on the REAL truth behind Hunter Biden's laptop.CONCERT PICK OF THE WEEK: Ani DiFranco!

Pilgrims, Indians, the myth of the grateful colonized person — it's been at the core of a persistent but false Thanksgiving narrative that has distorted the true relationship between Indigenous Peoples and white colonizers dating back to Plymouth Rock. As many of us observe Thanksgiving and Indigenous Peoples' Day, the new federal holiday, Judith LeBlanc, executive director of the Native Organizers Alliance, reminds us that “people are questioning.” In the midst of a national reckoning with white supremacy and colonial history, Indigenous people are demanding a new relationship with DC — honoring the traditional, legal, and moral rights of Native nations. In 2021, a group of Native organizers invited Laura to travel with a 25-foot totem pole from the Lummi Nation in Washington State to Washington D.C. stopping for ceremonies in communities under threat and gathering messages for the Biden-Harris administration. In DC they held a historic meeting with Interior Secretary Deb Haaland. In this episode, we hear what happened in that meeting, how Native movements are changing, among other myths, the Thanksgiving story, and where a Red Road to the future might lead us — if we followed it. November is National American Indian Heritage Month.“. . . When Native peoples are taking a stand, whether it's no DAPL at Standing Rock or the Keystone XL Pipeline . . . it's not just a Native American issue. We're defending the water and the land for tens of millions of Americans.” - Crystal Echo Hawk“Laws and policies were written without considering Indigenous communities' challenges or their strengths . . . Today and every day, we break barriers to those institutions and systems that were designed to keep us out.” - Secretary of the Interior, Deb Haaland“We're hoping this Thanksgiving, people take a look at what has happened in this country when it comes to reckoning with systemic racism . . .  We bring the idea that we're all in relationship.” - Judith LeBlancGuests:Crystal Echo Hawk: IllumiNative, Founder & CEOJudith LeBlanc: Director, Native Organizers AllianceMari Margil: Executive Director, Center for Democratic and Environmental RightsAnahkwet/Guy Reiter: Executive Director, Menīkānaehkem Community RebuildersFaith Spotted Eagle: Ihanktonwon Dakota Elder & Brave Heart Society Kunsi Member The show is made possible by listeners like you.

In 2021, Interior Secretary Deb Haaland (the first Indigenous American to serve as a Cabinet Secretary in the US) called for an investigation into the Federal Native American Boarding School System. In May of this year, the first report was made from the investigation—it was the first acknowledgment by the US government that between 1819 and 1969 (150 years!), the United States operated or supported 408 boarding schools across 37 states (or then-territories), including 21 schools in Alaska and 7 schools in Hawaii. The report finds that indigenous children (American Indian, Alaska Native, and Native Hawaiian) were forcibly removed from their homes and suffered abuse, malnourishment, and even death in the boarding schools. So far, 53 burial sites for children have been found across the school system. Native Nations scholars estimate that as many as 40,000 children died. Many survivors live today and even shared their testimonies at a Congressional hearing earlier this year. This American history has been hidden for so long, but is now coming into the light. How ought we receive it? What can we do? How can we be used to advance justice, mercy, and light in what has been so dark? Let's not look away from this history, but look toward it, toward these precious image bearers who were lost and those who have descended from them. This history is near—both in time and place. Let's cry out to the God of all nations for healing.

Police say the ATV was not licensed or street legal. With COVID-19 cases increasing, Cheltenham and Lower Merion Schools will reinstate mask mandates for students and teachers beginning on Friday. On Thursday, Malvern police were forced to shoot and kill a person while making a routine welfare check. Gas prices continue to rise across the country—one caller says he is going to be forced to quit his part-time job because he can no longer afford to commute as prices approach an average of $5 per-gallon in the Philadelphia-area. While speaking before the Senate Energy and Commerce Committee, Interior Secretary Deb Haaland refused to classify gas prices as “high” when questioned by Wyoming Senator John Barrasso. Earlier in the week, the Biden Administration announced they will loosen sanctions against Venezuela. Following negotiations, oil-company Chevron is expected to be licensed to resume business within the country. According to the New York Times, Venezuela and the Nicholas Maduro regime currently rely upon economic transactions with China, Russia, and Iran. According to the Wall Street Journal, credit reporting firms are noticing a substantial rise in missed loan payments from subprime borrowers. Goldman Sachs Chairman Lloyd Blankfein warned there is a “very, very high” risk a recession is coming.

Last year, both state and federal officials announced initiatives to help uncover missing and murdered relatives. Here's reporter Feven Gerezgiher with the update. On October 22nd, 2021, 15-year-old Neveah Kingbird disappeared without a trace.  For months, friends, family, and law enforcement have been looking for the Bemidji teen, organizing searches across town and soliciting tips on social media. A Facebook page dedicated to the search has over 1000 followers. Posts are shared all over the country. Bemidji police credit the widespread interest in Neveah's case to increased awareness of the many Indigenous women and children that go missing each year. Cases like Neaveah's are why State Senator Mary Kunesh first began advocating for a Missing and Murdered Indigenous Women taskforce in Minnesota.  This is about a community of people that have experienced violence and genocide at highest rates than any other group of people in the United States. Kunesh is a descendant of the Standing Rock tribe, and the first Indigenous woman on the Minnesota State Senate. She served in the House for four years before that. December of 2020, a task force she chaired delivered a report with 20 recommendations to the Legislature. First on the agenda: the creation of an office to lead the work. Kunesh: “Because we didn't want to just leave, you know, do the report and then leave it there to to gather dust, I sponsored a bill to create, the very first in the nation actually, Missing and Murdered Indigenous Relatives office. And that would be a new office in our state government, it would be a permanent office, where we'd have an executive director and three staff members that could continue those recommendations that we put forward. So at this time, we have not yet hired the executive director, though the final interviews, I believe, were just last week, and hopefully that executive director will be chosen. And that person will be made ready to hire her staff of three, and we will continue the work of the task force.” Kunesh says the office was renamed to Missing and Murdered Indigenous Relatives to include the two spirit community. The initiative also inspired a similar task force for missing African-American women. In April 2021, Department of Interior Secretary Deb Haaland announced a push on a national scale, creating the Missing and Murdered Unit within the Bureau of Indian Affairs to coordinate investigations and law enforcement resources between federal, state, and tribal agencies. It released a website last month dedicated to solving cases. The site begins to make data on missing persons available, and encourages tips that might help investigators, with the Bureau offering rewards of up to $5,000 in exchange for information. Kunesh is proposing a bill to fund a similar reward program for the state office which she hopes will be up and running by May. Still…. Neveah's family is anxious for answers and her safe return… If you have information about the case, you can report it and stay anonymous by contacting Crime Stoppers of Minnesota at their website www.CrimeStoppersMn.org, or by calling the toll free phone number 1-800-222-TIPS [8477]. Slow moving process to address long-standing injustices is government at its best. But these initiatives are an example of why representation is so important…. And why voting is critical. Senator Kunesh credits the progress made so far in part to the election of several Native women to the state legislature in recent years: Lt. Governor Peggy Flanagan, and Reps. Heather Keeler and Jamie Becker-Finn. Kunesh: “We are starting to see more empowerment of our Native American people, and more and more getting elected to office where they can make good change in policy and funding. We're raising our voices. More and more native folks are voting, which is a huge impact on elections in Minnesota. The last election we had the most native Americans participating in the elections and we've ever had.” As legislators consider redistricting, Kunesh has an eye on how different maps impact Native votes. One proposed map combines all northern Ojibwe reservations in one district. “And so I don't see this, you know, the Native American issue, you know, or the, the awareness of these kind of detrimental issues to our native community is going to end anytime. I don't think it's a flash in the pan. I think it's only going to grow, and I think it's going to grow nationally.” Says Kunesh. For Minnesota Native News, I'm Feven Gerezgiher.

Earlier this year, a group of Native organizers traveled with a 25-foot totem pole from the Lummi Nation in Washington State to Washington D.C. stopping for ceremonies in communities under threat and gathering messages for the Biden Harris administration. In DC they held a historic meeting with Interior Secretary Deb Haaland. In this episode, we hear what happened in that meeting, how Native movements are changing, among other myths, the thanksgiving story, and where a Red Road to the future might lead us - if we followed it. November is National American Indian Heritage Month, but as Judith LeBlanc, executive director of the Native Organizers Alliance put it, “the past and the future meet in the present. What are we doing today that will make our descendants proud of their ancestors?”“How do we begin to really shift the narrative and help Americans understand that when native peoples are taking a stand—whether it's no DAPL at Standing Rock or, you know, the Keystone XL Pipeline and thinking about Fort Belknap Indian Community or the Rosebud Sioux Reservation—it's not just a Native American issue.

Good Morning, Colorado, you're listening to the Daily Sun-Up with the Colorado Sun. It's Monday September 20th.   Today - Colorado's unemployment rate has dropped to 5.9%, since federal unemployment benefits ended. But most industries are still having a difficult time finding enough workers to fill open roles.   Before we begin, let's go back in time with some Colorado history adapted from historian Derek R Everett's book “Colorado Day by Day”:   Today we're going back to September 20th, 1877 when a crowd packed the Hinsdale County Courthouse in Lake City. The featured speaker was renowned women's suffrage activist, Susan B Anthony. She ultimately agreed to deliver her remarks on the grounds outside to accommodate the exceptionally large crowd.     Now, our feature story.    More people have returned to work and the state's unemployment rate dropped to 5.9%, after federal unemployment benefits ended Sept. 4. But employers from all industries have shared it's still hard to find enough workers, and it may be that there just aren't enough Coloradans out there. August saw a drop in the number of Colorodans who work or are looking for a job. According to the latest Census survey of households, the state's labor force dropped by 2,300 workers last month, and is now at 3,193,200. Tamara Chuang tells us more.   To read more of Tamara's reporting — or to receive her weekly newsletter on jobs, work and pandemic unemployment in Colorado — go to coloradosun.com   And Before we go, here are a few stories that you should know about today:   Members of Colorado's Republican Central Committee on Saturday voted against opting out of the state's primary to select general election candidates next year. Some members wanted to return to the old caucus and assembly process in order to keep unaffiliated voters from participating in the selection of GOP candidates. Since the 2018 election, unaffiliated voters have been allowed to vote in the primary, though the law lets the party to opt out if 75 percent of the central committee concurs. Only 34 percent of the committee members present at the meeting in Pueblo voted to opt out.   Colorado Geographic Naming Advisory Board unanimously approved changing the name of Squaw Mountain in Clear Creek County to Mestaa'ėhehe Mountain. The name honors an influential Cheyenne translator known as Owl Woman, who facilitated relations between white settlers and Native American tribes in the early 1800s. Supporters of the change called the peak's previous name “patently offensive.” Now the U.S. Geological Survey's Board on Geographic Names must approve the change. This is the first of 13 locations in Colorado for which residents have submitted applications to change offensive names, including Mount Evans.    The Bureau of Land Management's headquarters will move back to Washington, D.C., from Grand Junction, the Interior Department announced Friday. The decision comes despite objections from Colorado Republicans and Democrats, including the state's two U.S. senators and its governor. In 2019, the Trump administration announced that the BLM's headquarters moved to Grand Junction to be closer to the millions of acres of public lands it oversees. But critics of the relocation said it was done to help then-U.S. Sen. Cory Gardner, a Colorado Republican who was up for reelection in 2020 but lost. Interior Secretary Deb Haaland said Grand Junction will be the agency's western headquarters and that its presence in the city will grow.    Denver Public Schools board voted 6-1 to censure fellow member Tay Anderson on Friday, two days after a report detailing a six-month investigation that the board said showed Anderson had engaged in behavior unbecoming of a member. Anderson, who said at a news conference before the censure that he would not resign, was the lone dissenting vote. A 96-page report summarizing the investigation found Anderson flirted with a 16-year-old student — albeit before he knew her age — and made social media posts that were intimidating toward witnesses near the end of the investigation.

Randy Kritkausky – Indian Residential SchoolsAired Thursday, August 19, 2021, at 5:00 PM PST / 8:00 PM ESTOn June 22nd, U.S. Interior Secretary Deb Haaland, the first Native American to serve as a cabinet secretary, announced the federal government will investigate its past oversight of Native American boarding schools and work to “uncover the truth about the loss of human life and the lasting consequences” of policies that over the decades forced hundreds of thousands of children from their families and communities. The recent discovery of children's remains buried at the site of what was once Canada's largest Indigenous residential school has magnified interest in the troubling legacy both in Canada and the United States. How may this generational trauma be addressed? Is there room for collective healing and forgiveness?My guest this week on Vox Novus, Randy Kritkausky, shares his personal quest to go beyond the media reports, find the truth, and work toward healing. Randy, author of the book Without Reservation: Awakening to Native American Spirituality and the Ways of Our Ancestors, is a member of the Citizen Potawatomi Nation and his book detailed the powerful story of spiritual awakening, reconnection with Nature, and rekindling of ancestral wisdom. He joins me this week to discuss the truth of what happened at these “Indian Residential Schools,” the continuing trauma of indigenous peoples and how all of us may come together to heal these wounds.Visit the Vox Novus Show Page https://omtimes.com/iom/shows/vox-novus/Connect with Victor Fuhrman at http://victorthevoice.com/#RandyKritkausky #IndianResidentialSchools #VoxNovus #VictorFuhrman

For more than 100 years, the U.S. government forcibly relocated tens of thousands of Native American children to boarding schools under a federal assimilation program meant to suppress their languages, beliefs and identities. Historians estimate that by the early 20th century, more than three-quarters of all Native children attended one of more than 350 re-education schools, including an estimated 10 in California. In June, U.S. Interior Secretary Deb Haaland launched the Federal Indian Boarding School Initiative to investigate the loss of life, abuse and generational trauma associated with the schools. We'll talk about the painful legacy of indigenous boarding schools in California and nationally.

Good Morning, Colorado, you're listening to the Daily Sun-Up with the Colorado Sun. It's Monday July 26th.   Today - Colorado's Farmworkers Bill of Rights became law in June… So what does this new law look like out in the fields?    Before we begin, let's go back in time with some Colorado history adapted from historian Derek R Everett's book “Colorado Day by Day”:   Today we're going back to July 26th, 1881 when crews digging under the Continental Divide for the DSP&P met one another deep underground at the holing through the Alpine Tunnel. This milestone came during Colorado's mining economy boom when railroads competed to reach new towns and tap markets throughout the Rocky Mountains.     Now, our feature story.    Colorado's Farmworkers Bill of Rights became law in June, a measure that some people consider to be the most significant expansion of labor rights in the agricultural industry in decades. But what does this new law look like out in the fields? Colorado Sun's social editor Danika Worthington talks with reporter Nancy Lofholm about the impact of this law on ag workers and their employers.   To read more of Nancy's reporting on farmworkers' labor rights, go to coloradosun.com.    Thanks for listening. Finally, here are a few stories you should know about today:   Interior Secretary Deb Haaland on Friday made her first visit to the Bureau of Land Management headquarters in Grand Junction. The agency was relocated to western Colorado by the Trump Administration, with the promise that 320 jobs would move from Washington, D.C. In fact, only 3 jobs moved and now Haaland must decide whether the agency's main office should remain outside the beltway. She said Friday that she must consider the well-being of the agency as she thinks about the future of its headquarters and that she is open to Grand Junction playing what she called a “significant role” in the BLM's future.   As deadlines loom for Colorado to finalize its redistricting maps, the state's independent redistricting commissions want the Colorado Supreme Court to move back their deadlines. Final Census data, already delayed by the pandemic, now is expected to arrive no sooner than Aug. 16, which leaves just two weeks for the nonpartisan redistricting staff to draw their maps. If the court won't push back the Sept. 1 deadline set by the state constitution, staff is asking for permission to use preliminary data to create the maps, which would be adjusted later, using final data. If the maps aren't finalized by the end of the year, the primary election will have to be delayed.    Jury selection has begun in a trial against a former Nevada inmate accused of using a hammer to kill four people in Aurora in 1984. Alex Ewing was identified as a suspect in 2018 when a national database linked his DNA to evidence collected at the scene of the slain Bennet family. He was in prison at the time after being convicted of attacking a couple with an ax handle in their bedroom. Ewing fought extradition but was sent to Colorado to face the charges in 2020. He has pleaded not guilty.   The husband of Denver's District Attorney pleaded guilty to two counts of attempted arson last week after leaving several slash fires burning unattended near his home in Grand County during a fire ban. Christopher Linsmayer — the husband of DA Beth McCann — pleaded guilty in exchange for a deferred sentence. If he successfully completes his two-year probation without committing other crimes, his charges will be dismissed. In 2016, he was suspected of unintentionally starting a 10-acre wildfire near his home that forced about a dozen homes to evacuate.

Good Morning, Colorado, you're listening to the Daily Sun-Up with the Colorado Sun. It's Friday July 23rd.   Today - A group of judges and attorneys are working to change Colorado's legal standard that has made it easy for attorneys to exclude people of color from serving on juries.    We'd also like to take a moment to thank our sponsors at SunShare.

Space is limited and filling quickly, so make sure to visit us at mysunshare.com   But before we begin, let's go back in time with some Colorado history adapted from historian Derek R Everett's book “Colorado Day by Day”:   Today, we take you back to July 23rd, 1951 when Governor Dan Thornton requested that a state board ban the flogging of inmates at the penitentiary in Cañon City. This followed controversies that swirled about warden Roy Best. After years of his brutal discipline a grand jury indicted him and eight officers for violating the civil rights of inmates. This was a first in American history.   Now, our feature story.   A group of judges and attorneys on the Rules of Criminal Procedure Committee sent a proposal to the Colorado Supreme Court on ways to change the state's inadequate, decades-old legal standard that has made it easy for attorneys to exclude people of color, especially African Americans, from serving on juries. The proposal was modeled after one that recently passed in Washington and that other states are looking to adapt. But the court said no. Colorado Sun's social editor Danika Worthington talks with reporter Thy Vo about the court's decision.   CLIP   To read more of Thy's reporting on removing discrimination from jury selection, go to coloradosun.com.    And Before we go, here are a few stories that you should know about today:   Interior Secretary Deb Haaland said she supports the Biden administration's pick to lead the Bureau of Land Management despite growing opposition from U.S. Senate Republicans. The secretary was in Colorado Thursday to visit the BLM's headquarters in Grand Junction as she decides whether to keep it there. The nominee to lead the agency, Tracy Stone-Manning, has been linked to a 1989 environmental sabotage case in which she wrote a letter to the U.S. Forest Services warning that trees slated for logging in Idaho had been “spiked” with pieces of metal, which is potentially dangerous to loggers. Haaland did not address the incident, but said Stone-Manning has “built a lot of credibility” over the past years. If approved, Stone-Manning would lead the agency and its role in deciding whether to allow new oil and gas drilling on federal lands.    Unvaccinated staff are at the center of a federal investigation into rising COVID-19 infections and deaths in Grand Junction nursing homes. The CDC investigated outbreaks of the delta variant in elder care facilities in Mesa County in May and June. At one location, 42 percent of the staff were still not fully vaccinated compared to only about 8 percent of residents. The vast majority of fully vaccinated people who become infected with the delta variant suffer only mild symptoms. But health experts say older adults may not fully respond to the vaccine, which puts them at risk when exposed to a person infected with the highly contagious delta variant.   Multiple years after asking for how much it would cost to leave Tri-State Generation, rural electric cooperatives finally received an estimate — but only after federal regulators got involved. One co-op received a price tag of $449 million. Another, $1.5 billion. Co-ops called the costs “outrageous” and said they create barriers to leaving. At least 17 of the 43 members of Tri-State are interested in leave the association, in part because of its long-time dependence on power generated using coal.   For more information on all of these stories, visit our website, www.coloradosun.com.

Like Canada, America has a painful history of creating boarding schools to assimilate Native American children, leading to trauma, abuse and death. For more than 150 years, Indigenous children were taken from their families and forced into far away boarding schools. But now there's a reckoning and a new federal investigation underway.

Welcome to Majority.FM's AM QUICKIE! Brought to you by justcoffee.coop TODAY'S HEADLINES: The wheels of justice keep turning for those charged in the January 6th assault on the US Capitol. An Indiana woman has become the first to be sentenced, and a member of the Oath Keepers pleads guilty while agreeing to cooperate with prosecutors. Meanwhile, following the grim discovery of hundreds of buried Indigenous children at residential schools in Canada, the United States government will investigate what happened to Native American children in this country. Interior Secretary Deb Haaland announced the historical probe this week. And lastly, a socialist nurse has defeated an entrenched Democratic machine candidate in the race for mayor in Buffalo, New York. Don't call it a miracle – it's a sign of the times. THESE ARE THE STORIES YOU NEED TO KNOW: This courtroom update comes from the Associated Press. An Indiana woman yesterday became the first of nearly five hundred defendants to be sentenced for the January 6th insurrection at the Capitol – and she avoided time behind bars. Anna Morgan Lloyd of Indiana was ordered by a federal judge to serve three years of probation, perform one hundred and twenty hours of community service and pay $500 in restitution after admitting to entering the Capitol. She pleaded guilty to a single misdemeanor charge under a deal with prosecutors. Lloyd, forty nine, apologized to the court, the American people, and her family. At her sentencing, Lloyd said she was ashamed the day became "a savage display of violence." In seeking probation for Lloyd, prosecutors noted that she was not involved in any violence and destruction. Lloyd was invited by her hairdresser to drive to Washington to hear Donald Trump speak. US District Court Judge Royce Lamberth said he was giving her a break, but didn't want others to think that probation – and not a stiffer sentence – would be the norm. Also yesterday, the AP reports, Graydon Young, a member of the Oath Keepers extremist group, pleaded guilty to charges in the insurrection and agreed to cooperate with prosecutors in a major step forward for the massive investigation into the insurrection. It was also the first guilty plea in the major conspiracy case brought against members of the Oath Keepers. Something tells me their sentences will be a bit stiffer. U.S. Will Probe Native Schools Abuses This look at our national traumas comes from the New York Times. The United States will search federal boarding schools for possible burial sites of Native American children, hundreds of thousands of whom were forcibly taken from their communities to be culturally assimilated in the schools for more than a century, the interior secretary announced on Tuesday. The initiative is likely to resemble a recent effort in Canada, where the discovery of the remains of two hundred and fifteen children at the site of a defunct boarding school rekindled discussion of the traumatic history and treatment of Native populations. Addressing a virtual conference of the National Congress of American Indians, Secretary of the Interior Deb Haaland said the program would "shed light on the unspoken traumas of the past, no matter how hard it will be." The forced removals were a result of the Civilization Fund Act of 1819. In the years after the law was enacted, residential boarding schools were established across the nation and used to house relocated Indigenous children, suppressing American Indian, Alaska Native and Native Hawaiian cultures. The Times says the new program, called the Federal Indian Boarding School Initiative, will identify the facilities and sites where there may have been student burials. It will also mine records that were kept by the department, which had oversight of the facilities. A final report will be sent to Secretary Haaland by April 1. And there's no question it will make for painful but necessary reading. Socialist Victorious In New York Amazing news here, in case you missed it on the Majority Report. NBC News reports that a socialist candidate in Buffalo, New York, defeated the city's four-term mayor in a major upset in Tuesday's Democratic primary. India Walton beat Mayor Byron Brown, fifty two percent to forty five percent, with one hundred percent of precincts reporting. The Associated Press called the race late yesterday morning. Walton told MSNBC yesterday, "I believe we won because we organized. We have a message of care love and hope that is resonant with working class Buffalo." If Walton, thirty nine, wins the general election in November, she will become the first socialist mayor of a large American city since 1960, when Frank Zeidler left office in Milwaukee. Her chances of winning are high since Buffalo hasn't had a Republican mayor since 1965. According to the Rochester Democrat and Chronicle, Walton is a a nurse and community organizer. She had the backing of the Democratic Socialists of America as well as the Working Families Party. She campaigned on a platform of boosting affordable housing in the city and reforming the criminal-justice system. Brown, a former state senator, had been entrenched as Buffalo's mayor since he was first elected in 2005. A longtime ally of Governor Andrew Cuomo, Brown served a stint as the chairman of the state Democratic Party before relinquishing the post in 2019. Now that's one hell of an upset – and a big win for the American left! AND NOW FOR SOME QUICKER QUICKIES: The Guardian reports that the antivirus software entrepreneur John McAfee has been found dead in his cell in Spain, hours after the country's national court approved his extradition to the United States. He was wanted on tax-related criminal charges that carry a prison sentence of up to thirty years. The Spanish authorities say it was suicide. The Tampa Bay Times reports that Governor Ron DeSantis on Tuesday signed legislation that will require public universities to survey students, faculty and staff about their beliefs. The measure does not specify what will be done with the survey results. But DeSantis suggested budget cuts could be looming if universities are found to be "indoctrinating" students. As if he needed an excuse to make cuts! NBC News reports that the US Supreme Court yesterday limited the ability of union organizers to enter the private property of growers in order to reach farmworkers in California. In a six-three decision, the court said unions violate the Constitution when they enter a grower's private property without paying. Which is outrageous, because California enacted its rules on this because farmworkers often live on their employer's property. According to CBS News, dozens of cows escaped a slaughterhouse in Southern California and roamed free for over an hour on Tuesday, injuring four people. One of the animals was fatally shot by deputies after authorities said it charged at a family. That ending is sad and somehow predictable, but at least those cows went down fighting.

Hercules gets canceled by Facebook. Listen to Kim's podcast with Kevin Sorbo. Democrats attempt to influence streaming and cable companies to censor conservative voices heard on Fox, AON, etc. The radical left believes in “conserving” except when it comes to the American Idea. Colorado Senate Bill 21- 007 eliminates verification of “lawful presence” for an applicant seeking or renewing a license, certificate or registration. Chris Cantwell, broker with Transworld Business Advisors, acknowledges that opportunities exist for entrepreneurs if they are willing to be the “first one in and the last one out.” Chris updates owners on the second round of PPP funds noting that the application is due by March 31st and changes in the SBA incentive package for acquiring a business.

Guest and show sponsor Roger Hays, owner of Premier Employer Services (premieremployerservices.com), gives a synopsis as to what to expect as a business owner in the 2021 Legislative Session. The Pay Equity statute went into effect January 1st and compliance is extremely important. A new bill is being finalized regarding anti-harassment at work. The basic premise sounds good but the details are alarming and harmful to business owners. Other bills are coming that will most probably eliminate arbitration and non-disclosures in workplaces. Colorado is mimicking the anti-business climate of California. Both the forced minimum wage push and the Paid Medical and Family Leave program passed last fall by voters will lead to loss of jobs throughout Colorado.
