Most salespeople think they lost the deal because the prospect didn't have the money, wasn't ready, or found something cheaper. Ray Higdon says that's almost never the real reason. In this solo episode, Ray draws on decades of reviewing thousands of sales conversations to expose the one thing that kills more deals than anything else: failing to expand the prospect's problem. Here's the truth Ray lays out. Most people come to you with a "it'd be nice" problem. It'd be nice to make more money. It'd be nice to quit their job. And people with "it'd be nice" problems don't buy. Your job isn't to pitch harder or follow up more aggressively. Your job is to ask the right questions and help them feel the weight of what staying stuck is actually costing them. Ray shares the story of a client who owed $70,000 to the IRS and refused to invest another dime, right up until Ray helped him see that scraping and saving wasn't going to solve a big problem. That client hired Ray for $30,000, launched a six-figure campaign, paid off the debt, and kept going. That's what expanding the problem looks like in real life. If you want to close more sales without being pushy or salesy, this one is worth your full attention.

Send us Fan MailScientology doesn't just punish you while you're inside, it tries to keep punishing you after you leave. We sit down for a wide-ranging Q&A that gets into the real mechanics behind harassment campaigns, smear websites, and why the legal system can feel stacked when an organization is willing to spend forever in court. We also share what it's like to build a normal family life after disconnection, and why boundaries matter when relatives are still following policies that label former members as dangerous.From there, we dig into the questions people keep asking out loud: Is David Miscavige still hitting people? Why did the Tom Cruise turtleneck video spark such backlash once it leaked? Does Scientology “keep the money,” or is the bigger story who controls it and who gets insulated from normal life? Along the way we explain how “church” status and IRS recognition can hide a high-control system in plain sight, and why the most revealing test is what happens when you try to leave.We also talk about human trafficking and forced labor concerns in clear, concrete terms: held passports, religious visas used for non-minister work, recruitment promises that never become real, sleep deprivation, makework, and the lack of routine medical care. We connect those conditions to long-term health risks, and we keep the focus on what listeners can do, including how people still inside the Sea Org can get help the moment they decide to walk out.If you found this conversation useful, subscribe for more weekly answers, share it with someone who's curious about Scientology, and leave a review so more people can find the show.LOTL: Queer ConversationWe all crave Queer Conversations.

1. Trump Administration's 50% Tariff on Canadian Goods Main points: The administration argues that Canada has unfairly discriminated against U.S. products, particularly: American automobiles Alcohol products Dairy exports The tariff is presented as a way to protect: American workers Manufacturers Farmers Domestic industries The policy reportedly uses Section 338 of the Tariff Act of 1930, a rarely used authority allowing tariffs on countries deemed to discriminate against U.S. commerce. Not all Canadian goods would be affected: Energy products Fish Critical minerals Other strategic goods are reportedly exempt. The commentary argues that Canada depends more on access to the U.S. market than vice versa and predicts Canada may eventually negotiate. 2. Minnesota Welfare Fraud and IRS Investigation Main points: Fraud could total in the billions of dollars The "Feeding Our Future" fraud scandal and broader allegations involving public benefits programs. Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent is said to have announced: IRS audits of financial institutions Investigations by FinCEN (Financial Crimes Enforcement Network) A federal task force to examine money laundering tied to the fraud Follow the path of funds after they were allegedly stolen and determine whether: Banks Money service businesses Financial intermediaries knowingly facilitated money laundering or ignored suspicious activity.

This Day in Legal History: The Declaration of SentimentsOn July 20, 1848, at the close of the two-day Seneca Falls Convention in upstate New York, roughly a hundred people signed the Declaration of Sentiments—the founding document of the organized women's rights movement in the United States. Drafted principally by Elizabeth Cady Stanton, it was a deliberate and pointed act of legal argument: Stanton modeled it on the Declaration of Independence, echoing Jefferson's cadences but adding two words that changed everything—”that all men and women are created equal.”The genius of the document was to take the nation's own founding logic and turn it on the exclusion of half the population. It then catalogued, in the form of a bill of particulars against “man” rather than King George, the specific legal disabilities women lived under. Married women had no right to their own property or wages—under the common-law doctrine of coverture, a wife's legal identity was absorbed into her husband's. Women could not vote, were barred from most professions and higher education, had almost no rights to their own children in the event of separation, and were governed by laws they had no voice in making. The Declaration listed these as concrete legal grievances, not vague complaints, framing the denial of women's rights as a violation of the country's stated principles.The most controversial demand was the resolution calling for women's suffrage, which passed only narrowly and with the public support of Frederick Douglass, who attended the convention. The significance of July 20, 1848 is that it launched a legal and political campaign that would take seventy-two years to win the vote, with the Nineteenth Amendment in 1920, and far longer to dismantle coverture and the web of laws built on women's legal subordination. It's a reminder that constitutional principles are not self-executing—that “all men are created equal” had to be argued, expanded, and fought for by the people the original text left out.A federal appeals court has struck down New Jersey's ban on assault firearms and high-capacity magazines, the first time any federal appeals court has invalidated a state assault-weapons ban. Sitting en banc, the Philadelphia-based Third Circuit ruled 10-5 that the state's prohibition on semi-automatic rifles—not just AR-15s, but the whole category—violates the Second Amendment, as does its ban on magazines holding more than ten rounds. The reasoning flows from the Supreme Court's recent framework, which asks whether a gun regulation is consistent with the nation's historical tradition of firearms regulation; the majority concluded these bans are not. What makes this a genuinely big deal is the split it creates. Just last week, a different federal appeals court upheld Illinois's ban on semi-automatic weapons—so we now have appeals courts squarely disagreeing on whether these bans are constitutional. That kind of circuit split is precisely the condition that draws the Supreme Court in, and the Court is already poised to take up whether bans on semi-automatic rifles violate the Second Amendment. The significance is that a question affecting roughly a dozen states with similar laws is now barreling toward a definitive answer. For the moment, New Jersey's ban is unenforceable as to these weapons, but the durability of that outcome—and of assault-weapons bans nationwide—now depends on what the Supreme Court does next.US appeals court declares New Jersey's ban on assault rifles unconstitutional | ReutersA federal judge has ruled that the Trump administration cannot rely on a White House budget-office regulation to cancel billions of dollars in grants simply because those grants no longer match its priorities. U.S. District Judge Indira Talwani in Boston sided with a coalition of Democratic-led states, rejecting the administration's claim that a clause in Office of Management and Budget regulations gave it authority to revoke funding whenever an agency's focus shifts. Here's the underlying principle. When Congress appropriates money for a program and an agency awards grants under it, the government generally can't just take that money back on a whim—grant recipients have relied on it, and the terms for termination are limited. The administration's theory was that an OMB regulation let it terminate grants it deemed “inconsistent with agency priorities,” effectively a roving power to defund causes it disfavors. Judge Talwani found the regulation didn't authorize anything of the kind. The significance connects to a theme we keep returning to: the limits of executive power over money that Congress has already directed. The administration has repeatedly tried to redirect or withhold funds to reshape policy without going through Congress, and courts have repeatedly pushed back. This ruling reinforces that a president's control over federal spending, though real, is bounded—an agency can't retroactively pull grants just because political priorities changed.Trump administration cannot cancel grants for disfavored causes, US judge rules | ReutersA federal judge has declined to block Meta from laying off 26 employees who claim the company's AI tools singled them out for termination because they have disabilities or took medical leave. U.S. District Judge William Orrick in Oakland ruled that the workers hadn't shown the “irreparable harm” needed for an emergency order halting the layoffs, which are set to begin July 22, and that the merits of their novel claims will be decided in private arbitration. The allegations are striking. The plaintiffs—engineers, managers, researchers, and designers suing anonymously—say Meta used a suite of internal AI systems to score and rank employees onto a termination list, including an assistant called “Metamate,” an employee-trained “second brain” that tracked workers' communications, and a productivity score drawn from scanning keystrokes, screen content, emails, and browser history. Meta denies wrongdoing and insists humans, not algorithms, made the layoff decisions. This is a frontier legal question: when an employer uses AI to help decide who gets cut, and those tools allegedly disadvantage people with disabilities or on leave, is that illegal discrimination? The judge's refusal to block the layoffs was procedural—losing a job usually isn't “irreparable” because money damages can fix it—but he pointedly noted the case raises “serious questions” and said he might reconsider based on more evidence about how AI was actually used. The significance is that algorithmic management is colliding with anti-discrimination law, and courts are just beginning to work out who's accountable when the machine does the ranking.US judge won't block Meta from laying off workers who filed AI discrimination lawsuit | ReutersAnd finally, the IRS's top lawyer has been forced out after refusing White House demands that would have drawn him into tax audits of particular taxpayers. Ken Kies, who served as the agency's acting chief counsel and as Treasury's assistant secretary for tax policy, told administration officials their requests would violate a federal law that bars the president, the vice president, and other White House officials from ordering the IRS to conduct or terminate an audit of any specific taxpayer. That statute is a direct legacy of Watergate-era abuses, when presidents tried to sic the tax agency on their enemies, and tax professionals regard it as the single most important safeguard against weaponizing the tax code. Kies apparently stood on that law—and lost his job for it. The story connects directly to one we covered recently: the administration's $1.8 billion “anti-weaponization” settlement that would have given the president and his family immunity from IRS audits, which a federal judge struck down as a collusive arrangement with no basis in law. The significance is about the fragile independence of tax administration. The protections that keep audits free from political direction only work if the officials inside the agency are willing to enforce them—and when the person who says “no” to an unlawful demand is pushed out, it sends a chilling message to everyone who remains.

By 1986, REM were veterans of the college rock scene, had recorded in London and gotten songs into the charts. For their 4th album, Life's Rich Pageant, they took a step forward in stretching not only what they could do musically but voicing social, political and environmental concerns through their lyrics. We don't find it to be totally in your face (as opposed to say, U2) but more subliminal as their lyrics can sometimes be nebulous or at least not straight forward and not about rock cliches like hot rods and chicks (not that there's anything wrong with hot rods and chicks if you know what I'm saying out there boys - Ian Astbury, The Cult). They may sneak in stories about a polluted river in Cuyahoga or regret the rise and fall of a revolutionary in Central America (The Flowers of Guatemala) or even the effects of acid rain damaging our environment (Fall On Me). But they do it with upbeat riffs and guitar runs from Peter Buck with lead singer Michael Stipe delivering the message while bassist Mike Mills provides the counterpoint lyrics to not only tell the story but give REM their signature sound. The driving beat provided by Bill Berry make songs like I Believe an all out rocker you can jump around and shout along to. And they experiment with things like banjos on Swan Swan H and middle eastern sounds on Underneath The Bunker (not quite an instrumental). This album went gold and is the predecessor to Document which would be their first platinum record thanks to The One I Love & It's The End Of The World As We Know It (And I Feel Fine). Superman, a cover by the 60's psychedelic band Clique, helped them get in the charts and draw some interest beyond college campuses and college radio. That interest would build to Document which would lead to a $40 million record contract from Warner Brothers and put them on a steeper trajectory to pop superstardom. REM fans are often divided between those who knew and loved them in 80s before they hit it big and those who came to know them thanks to the big record company, expensive videos and pop stylings. For me, the IRS records of the 80s will always be the real REM and Life's Rich Pageant is a great moment in time for them. They've learned the ropes, made some good records and are not complacent - they moved forward believing in themselves, each other and their convictions which would eventually bring them all the success in the world.

Today's Headlines: Trump's Big Boy speech was overhyped, overproduced, and deeply disappointing — with NBC and ABC refusing to air it. In true Donald fashion, he threatened to shut down both networks and the content itself were his greatest hits of repeatedly disproven 2020 election claims delivered at an off-pace that makes more sense now that we know his teleprompter operator was placed on leave for making $100,000 on Kalshi bets predicting the content of Trump's speeches — a guy who has operated Trump's teleprompter since 2016, personally takes his last-minute edits, and was questioned about how the January 6th speech came together. The actual upshot of the speech is that the administration plans to release thousands of declassified 2020 election documents and send letters to states they suspect of malfeasance, giving themselves cover to deploy election monitors and potentially troops in November. Meanwhile, Todd Blanche reluctantly met with Epstein survivors after Republican Senator Thom Tillis threatened to withhold his confirmation vote unless he did — survivor Liz Stein called it a box-checking exercise that had "absolutely nothing to do with them," Tillis immediately tweeted his commendation, and Blanche's confirmation is now essentially assured, which is the least surprising outcome imaginable. In a surprising shift, a hundred House Democrats — a third of the caucus — voted to cut off military aid to Israel, up significantly from 37 last time, right after California congressman Ro Khanna was detained for over an hour by armed Israeli settlers and soldiers in the West Bank and released only after contacting the US embassy, with Ambassador Mike Huckabee calling it a stunt. In other news, the cyclosporiasis parasite outbreak has been traced to shredded iceberg lettuce at Taco Bell supplied by Taylor Farms across five states, with over 5,000 cases and 4,000 in Michigan alone. The Treasury's top tax policy official was pushed out after raising concerns that a White House request could violate IRS law carrying a five-year prison sentence — following the law cost him his job, which is exactly why the law exists. And eleven Republican lawmakers sent a formal letter to the WNBA demanding accountability for "racially motivated" attacks against Caitlin Clark, because weaponizing women's sports never goes out of style.

This is a free preview of a paid episode. To hear more, visit www.serioustrouble.showThis week: Judge Kathleen Williams' eviscerates President Trump's attorneys for their sham lawsuit that was ultimately used as a pretext to create the “weaponization fund” settlement. Her order is bracing. But what are its practical effects? Is the settlement actually void, including the part that was supposed to protect Trump from future IRS audits? Also: E. Jean Carroll finally got the smaller of her two Trump judgments paid out. And we consider the very aggressive legal theory under which Mahmoud Khalil is suing the people who advocated for him to be deported, and the Trump administration's effort to find out how The New York Times learned about security threats to the president's new Qatari jet.That's this week's free episode. For paying subscribers, we look at the Trump administration's effort to get information about how Boris Epshteyn, its own representative, communicated with law firms that settled in the face of adverse executive orders. Awkward. Plus: a defamation case that should worry New York City Councilwoman Vickie Paladino, at least as regards one of its claims, and we consider a bizarre episode that has Jack Burkman and Jacob Wohl back in the news, pursuing their very own big-boy federal felonies.

Most business owners focus on growth, sales, and scaling, but the real danger often shows up after they've already “made it.” In this episode, tax attorney and estate planning expert Todd Villarrubia explains how thriving entrepreneurs unintentionally expose themselves to massive tax bills, lawsuits, and family chaos simply because their wealth isn't structured or protected the right way. Todd has spent over 30 years helping entrepreneurs and high net worth families protect billions of dollars from the IRS, creditors, and unnecessary estate taxes. He breaks down why “pigs get fat, hogs get slaughtered” when it comes to tax planning, and how to stay aggressively legal while still minimizing income tax, capital gains, and estate tax. You'll hear real-world examples of owners losing eight figures because they didn't document ownership correctly, mismanaged retirement plans, or failed to shield personal assets from business risk. This conversation goes beyond surface-level tax tips and into strategic wealth architecture. Todd explains when advanced strategies start to make sense (typically once you're paying six figures in tax), and walks through tools like solar programs, film tax credits, charitable remainder trusts, charitable lead trusts, domestic asset protection trusts, and Delaware Dynasty Trusts. He shows how these can legally reduce taxes, avoid probate, protect assets from future creditors, and eliminate estate tax on tens of millions of dollars, while still allowing founders to maintain control of their companies. We also dive into the concept of “wealth with purpose” how truly successful families don't just chase returns, they create a family constitution, shared values, regular family meetings, and financial literacy for the next generation. Todd explains why succession planning, business exits, and legacy design can't be left to chance, and how his book Entrepreneurial Beast Mode lays out a step-by-step roadmap to protect wealth from taxes, lawsuits, divorce, and bad planning so it can last for multiple generations instead of disappearing within one or two. https://youtu.be/QavL3IWfIec?si=nB05xekehF2kf_bG If you're an entrepreneur who's finally making real money, or expecting a windfall from a business sale, inheritance, or big exit, this episode will shift how you think about taxes, asset protection, and generational wealth. You'll come away with a clearer view of the silent risks around you, and concrete ideas for turning your current success into lasting security for you, your business, and your family. Quotes: "The only two things that are certain in life are death and taxes, and I guess I'm blessed that, as an estate tax attorney, I deal with death and taxes every day." "For us, wealth is more than just about a dollar. It's about developing a family constitution, core values, and financial literacy for the kids." "It's a lot more than just talking about money; it's about wealth transfer and building dynastic wealth, that's really the ultimate goal."

Jeffrey Epstein used his access to powerful people and institutions to secure a $25 million payment from Edmond de Rothschild's Swiss private bank during a federal investigation into whether the bank helped wealthy Americans hide assets from the IRS. Epstein introduced the bank's leader, Ariane de Rothschild, to former Obama White House counsel Kathy Ruemmler, who had recently returned to Latham & Watkins. Ruemmler and her legal team conducted the substantive work of reviewing bank records and negotiating with the Justice Department, while Epstein remained involved behind the scenes as a connector and adviser. Documents show Epstein arranged a compensation structure tied to the size of the bank's eventual penalty, with his payment increasing to $25 million if the settlement came in below $100 million. The bank ultimately agreed to pay approximately $45.5 million, allowing Epstein to collect the maximum fee even though the law firms representing the bank reportedly received only about $10 million combined.The arrangement also provides new insight into Epstein's close relationship with Ruemmler, who is scheduled to answer questions before the House Oversight Committee. Emails indicate Epstein introduced her to influential figures including Bill Gates, Peter Thiel and Ehud Barak, while Ruemmler sometimes referred to him as “Uncle Jeffrey” and accepted expensive gifts from him. Although one source said Epstein had no direct role in the detailed legal work, Ruemmler discussed hiring him as a consultant through her firm, partly to protect their communications through attorney-client privilege. Ruemmler has maintained that she knew Epstein only while working in private practice, saw no evidence that he was continuing to abuse women and had no knowledge of ongoing criminal activity. The documents nevertheless show how Epstein transformed introductions, perceived expertise and elite relationships into enormous profits while preserving his influence years after becoming a registered sex offender.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:How Jeffrey Epstein parlayed his elite network into a $25 million payday - CBS News

Today's Headlines: Pete Hegseth announced that the military will now annually screen all service members over 30 for testosterone deficiency with voluntary testing for under-30s who are concerned, and testosterone replacement therapy available to anyone who wants it — which is gender-affirming care, offered by the guy who banned gender-affirming care. In Congress hearings, Todd Blanche's attorney general confirmation hearing featured him calling himself "the president's lawyer — was the president's lawyer" in real time, being grilled about the Epstein files coverup, Ghislaine Maxwell's prison spa with an emotional support puppy, and the fake IRS settlement, while Texas Senator John Cornyn said he hasn't decided how to vote. Meanwhile, Jay Clayton, Trump's pick for Director of National Intelligence overseeing all 18 spy agencies, spent his hearing refusing to say who won the 2020 election, offering only that Biden "was certified" — which is the kind of answer that tells you everything you need to know. On the Epstein files, Epstein's email friend Kathy Ruemmler testified that her emails with him were "taken out of context," which is the phrase everyone involved with Epstein eventually lands on, while JD Vance went on Joe Rogan and called himself "one of the OG Epstein conspiracy theorists," said Epstein had access to the highest levels of American and Israeli intelligence, and admitted the administration "absolutely screwed up" the files release — which is a remarkable set of statements from a sitting Vice President. Vance's Secret Service detail is also reportedly fed up with his family using military helicopters for his eight-year-old's golf lessons and house-hunting trips at $16-24,000 an hour. Finally, the widow of Corey Comperatore — killed at Trump's Butler rally — said in an interview she believes the assassination attempt was an "inside job" based on a government report showing the Secret Service missed over 100 local radio warnings about the shooter, and is hoping Trump will reach out to answer her questions,  and the Trump administration is considering requiring some green card applicants to post $100,000 bonds at US consulates abroad as a condition of their applications, with the money returned only after they become citizens — a five-year minimum process — and no word on who keeps the interest.

Acting Attorney General Todd Blanche may be one of the most divisive nominees President Donald Trump has nominated in recent weeks and his fingerprints are on some of the administration's most explosive controversies—from Trump's legal battles with the IRS to the Epstein files. Those fights have earned him fierce critics, alongside the president's loyalty. The question facing senators now is whether they've also earned him enough Republican votes to claim the Justice Department's top job. USA TODAY Justice Department Correspondent Aysha Bagchi joins The Excerpt to share her insights on the first day of his confirmation hearing.Let us know what you think of this episode by sending an email to podcasts@usatoday.com.

Rates may vary.Kevin Warsh delivered his first congressional testimony as Fed Chair, and Peter Schiff breaks down a hearing where everyone discussed inflation while misdefining the term and ignoring their own role in causing it. June CPI came in at -0.4% versus the expected -0.1%, dropping year-over-year inflation to 3.5% — but the entire decline came from a temporary oil price drop that is already reversing as the Iran war reignites and oil climbs back 20% in July. Bond yields tell the real story: the 30-year is back near 5.1% and the 10-year near 4.6%, erasing nearly the entire post-CPI rally.Schiff's biggest revelation from the hearing: the Fed employs 23,000 people to do a job that required just 40 when it opened in 1914 — with no computers — and argues the entire institution could be replaced by a single AI or abolished outright. He dismantles Warsh's claim of "regime change" at the Fed as being as fake as regime change in Iran, exposes the redefinition of "price stability" to mean prices that rise just slowly enough that people stop complaining, and shows how the 2% target was always a lie invented to justify inflation. He covers Warsh admitting inflation is a tax while planning to keep levying it, the court throwing out Trump's self-negotiated IRS settlement that granted his family immunity, and the AI CapEx bubble turning tech's biggest cash generators into massive borrowers that will break the bond market.Chapters:00:00 AI Spending Arms Race01:08 Markets Brace for CPI06:07 CPI Surprise and Gold Whipsaw07:34 Oil Driven Inflation Mirage11:40 What Inflation Really Means14:11 Congress and Fed Share Blame17:58 Fed Headcount Shock22:32 Two Percent Target Myth27:05 Regime Change and Price Stability33:40 Day One Recap Continues34:09 Grow My X Account35:13 Congress Inflation Theater36:06 Trump Grift Claims37:30 IRS Settlement Outrage39:51 Rates Versus Balance Sheet41:08 Who Wins Low Rates43:46 Fed And Black Workers49:09 AI Bubble Warning51:15 Hyperscalers Debt Spiral55:38 Bond Market Breaking Point58:16 Strategy Stock Dilution01:00:30 Bitcoin Levels And Regrets01:01:30 Subscribe And Sign OffFollow @peterschiffX: https://twitter.com/peterschiffInstagram: https://instagram.com/peterschiffTikTok: https://tiktok.com/@peterschiffofficialFacebook: https://facebook.com/peterschiff#PeterSchiffShow #FederalReserve #AIBubbleOur Sponsors:* Check out Chilipad and use my code GOLD for a great deal: https://sleep.me* Check out Fast Growing Trees and use my code GOLD for a great deal: https://www.fast-growing-trees.com* Check out Plaud AI and use my code GOLD for a great deal: https://plaud.ai* Check out Quince and use my code quince.com/gold for a great deal: https://www.quince.com* Check out TruDiagnostic and use my code GOLD20 for a great deal: https://www.trudiagnostic.comPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy

Popok reports that the Trump DOJ as of today continues to take the position that Todd Blanche's 1 paragraph "amendment" to the phony settlement agreement between Trump and his own IRS and DOJ, provides Trump and his family and associates with immunity from any future tax audit liability or criminal prosecution, relying on a distortion of Judge Williams' scathing ruling against them. Blanche has tried to get out in front of it by telling Senate Democrats that he is a victim of a "hatchet" job by Judge Williams!

Let's talk about Trump's IRS deal being voided..

Chris’s Summary Jim and I dig into two beneficiary disputes as part of what we’re calling a “potpourri” EDU show: the 1930s Goodman Triangle life insurance gift tax dispute and a recent Montana Supreme Court ruling on an uncashed cashier’s check. We also discuss a bipartisan proposal to raise the home sale capital gains exclusion and a separate proposal to index capital gains for inflation more broadly. Jim’s “Pithy” Summary Chris and I dig into a variety of topics, starting with a court fight that traces back nearly a hundred years, something folks in the industry call the Goodman Triangle. Picture three people tied to one policy: an owner, an insured, and a separate beneficiary. Mrs. Goodman took out five life insurance policies on her husband, moved them into a revocable trust, and thought she was fine, until he died and the IRS said she’d made a taxable gift. She fought it and the court’s decision on the case still gets cited whenever a policy or an annuity has three different people sitting in those three roles. From there we get into a couple of proposals sitting in Congress right now. One would finally raise the exclusion on gains from selling your primary home, something that hasn’t budged since the late nineties even as home prices have doubled and tripled around the country. The House and Senate versions land in slightly different places, but both would roughly double the current numbers and index them for inflation going forward. The other proposal is a longer shot, backed by senators who don’t have much bipartisan goodwill behind them, and it would apply an inflation multiplier to stocks, real estate, and other capital assets so you’d only owe tax on the growth that’s actually real. We close with one of our beneficiary disputes out of the Montana Supreme Court: a husband pulls eighty thousand dollars out as a cashier’s check made out to himself, hides it in the house, and dies without a will. His wife cashes it, his son sues, and the ruling comes down to whether a gift was ever actually completed. The post A Potpourri of Beneficiary Disputes and Tax Laws: EDU #2628 appeared first on The Retirement and IRA Show.

On today's episode of the MeidasTouch Podcast, Ben, Brett, and Jordy discuss the sudden death of Senator Lindsey Graham and the fallout across Washington and Tehran, Trump's renewed strikes on Iran and his move to reimpose a "blockade" of the Strait of Hormuz with a 20% cargo fee, and the surging oil and gas prices hitting Americans as a result. They also dig into yet another murder at the hands of ICE, a bombshell federal court order sanctioning Trump's lawyers in the IRS lawsuit, the Trump administration's push to dismantle the ICC, and much more.

With Acting Attorney General Todd Blanche's confirmation hearing set to begin midweek, Andrew and Mary use this episode to look at the totality of his tenure at the Justice Department, detailing example after example of how — despite his role as the chief lawyer for the United States — he is still functioning as the de facto personal lawyer for the president. They start things off by dissecting a deeply consequential and searing opinion from District Judge Kathleen Williams over Trump's IRS lawsuit, effectively finding, in Mary's telling, that it “was collusion. It was the president being on both sides of that case, and it's no adversity between the parties.” Then, the co-hosts take a broader gaze into what Blanche has done: his handling of the Epstein files and Ghislaine Maxwell, the ongoing investigations and attempted prosecutions of Trump's political enemies and how he has used the DOJ as the president's personal law firm. Mary and Andrew also review the Justice Department's recent actions with Blanche at the helm, including an example from the past week of the ongoing “assault on journalists”: subpoenaing New York Times journalists who wrote about the jet gifted to the US by the Qatari government.

Today's Headlines: Lindsey Graham's sister Darline Graham Nordone was appointed to his Senate seat within days of his death — never held office, framed as a neutral placeholder, and now South Carolina's first female senator, which would be more historic if it weren't handed to her by Trump as a favor. The FBI also showed up at Graham's DC home less than 48 hours after his death with at least 8 agents, claiming "abundance of caution" and "nothing indicated foul play." On the administration's ongoing efforts to undermine election integrity, Trump announced a primetime speech Thursday night, which MSNBC immediately reported will be used to declare the 2020 elections of Warnock and Ossoff illegitimate due to "voting machine vulnerabilities" — part of a broader whole-of-government effort to relitigate 2020 that includes a new White House task force run by Bill Pulte, whose dad is in the Epstein files, and thousands of pages of classified documents they claim show election irregularities. Two FBI agents in Atlanta were also fired for refusing to join the sham Georgia election probe. On Iran, US strikes on Iran entered their third consecutive night with the naval blockade back in full force, and Trump is now suggesting the US charge other countries tolls for Strait of Hormuz passage, which is a thing he said out loud. Meanwhile, ICE shot and killed a 26-year-old Colombian man named Joan Sebastian Guerrero in Maine — authorized to work, had a social security number, on his way to work, not even the person ICE was targeting — in front of his three-year-old daughter in Bluey pajamas in the backseat. There is no bodycam footage but plenty of iPhone witnesses, and hundreds immediately came out to protest. In yet another blow to our narrowing freedoms, Four New York Times reporters were subpoenaed at their homes on a Friday night in a probe run by Kash Patel, apparently because Trump was angry about reporting that his Qatari jet lacks adequate security, which is the most efficient abuse of FBI resources we've seen yet. Finally, we leave you with a little bit of hope. A federal judge voided Trump's fake IRS settlement, called it "collusion" and an "exercise in self-dealing," and referred Trump's lawyers and senior DOJ officials to state bar authorities for ethical review. And twelve state attorneys general sued to block the Paramount-Warner Brothers merger that would put Bari Weiss in charge of CNN, with Paramount threatening to leave California in response.
