Elon Musk is different than prior American business tycoons. Arguably, he is more powerful. More poignantly, as my guest argues, he is less dedicated to democracy, and that makes him frighteningly more dangerous. In this interview, I discuss the following with my guest scholar: ►Who was Andrew Carnegie? ►How was he similar to Musk? ►How was Carnegie - once the richest man in the world - different than Musk? ►What was Carnegie's political relationship with Washington and his outlook for America? ►Who was William Randolph Hearst? ►How was his promotional reach bigger than Musk's?►Was Hearst a Nazi? ►How was Hearst's relationship with politics and Washington different than Musk's? ►How did Hearst finally get into trouble with the people? ►Who was Joseph P. Kennedy? ►How did he make his money? In what aspects was he similar to Musk? ►Was Kennedy a Nazi sympathizer? ►How was Kennedy's relationship with FDR different than Musk's relationship with Pres. Trump?

This Day in Legal History: SEC EstablishedOn this day in legal history, June 6, 1934, the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) was established, marking a pivotal moment in the regulation of financial markets. The SEC was created in response to the stock market crash of 1929 and the ensuing Great Depression, aiming to restore investor confidence and safeguard their interests. Tasked with enforcing securities laws and regulating the securities industry, the SEC's mission was to ensure transparency, prevent fraud, and protect investors from unfair practices. President Franklin D. Roosevelt appointed Joseph P. Kennedy, a businessman and former stock market speculator, as the first Chairman of the SEC. Kennedy's experience and insider knowledge of Wall Street made him a controversial but effective choice for the role. Under his leadership, the SEC began implementing key reforms, including the requirement for companies to provide accurate and comprehensive financial statements, the regulation of stock exchanges, and the enforcement of laws against insider trading. These measures were crucial in stabilizing the financial markets and rebuilding public trust. The establishment of the SEC represented a significant shift towards greater federal oversight and accountability in the financial sector.The U.S. Federal Trade Commission (FTC) and the Department of Justice (DOJ) have agreed to divide responsibility over the artificial intelligence (AI) industry, allowing the FTC to investigate Microsoft's relationship with OpenAI. The DOJ will probe Nvidia for potential antitrust violations and oversee Alphabet Inc.'s Google. This arrangement follows over six months of negotiations between the agencies.The FTC has already initiated a probe into Microsoft's $650 million deal with Inflection AI, scrutinizing whether the company properly notified antitrust authorities. Both the DOJ and FTC declined to comment, and representatives from Microsoft, Inflection, OpenAI, Google, and Nvidia did not respond to requests for comments.The DOJ and FTC jointly enforce U.S. antitrust laws and decide internally which agency will handle specific investigations. This process, known as clearance, has previously led to disputes, especially in high-profile cases like those involving Google. The process of "clearance" between the DOJ and FTC, which involves determining which agency will investigate specific mergers and anticompetitive conduct, is crucial in managing jurisdictional overlaps and ensuring efficient enforcement of antitrust laws.In related developments, the European Union reviewed Microsoft's investment in OpenAI but opted not to pursue a formal investigation. Meanwhile, the UK's competition watchdog is examining the partnership but determined that Microsoft's deal with French AI company Mistral AI does not warrant an investigation.Microsoft, Nvidia to Face US Antitrust Probes Over Moves in AIUS regulators to open antitrust inquiries of Microsoft, OpenAI and Nvidia | ReutersDan Jacobs, chef-owner of two Milwaukee restaurants, adopted a service charge model during the pandemic to increase employee pay, which led to a $70,000 tax bill. This situation highlights a broader issue where the U.S. tax code favors traditional tipping systems with tax credits, disadvantaging restaurants that use service charges. Service fees, which can range from a few percent to over 20% of the bill, are intended to raise wages for back-of-house workers and reduce tipping disparities.Rep. Earl Blumenauer has introduced legislation to equalize the tax treatment of service charges and tips, arguing that the tax code should not penalize restaurants adapting to industry changes. The proposed bill would allow restaurants using service charges to claim a tax credit similar to the tip tax credit, provided the service charge goes directly to employees. Critics argue that service charges reduce workers' take-home pay and believe tips give employees more control over their earnings.The National Restaurant Association supports policies offering operational flexibility, and many Democrats in Congress advocate eliminating the subminimum tipped wage. Service charges spread earnings among all staff, including those already earning the minimum wage, potentially reducing income for traditionally tipped workers. Ending the tipped wage could address these disparities and make service charges a more viable option for restaurants.In short, the disparity in tax treatment between traditional tips and service charges under the U.S. tax code, which currently benefits restaurants that rely on tips through tax credits, is a significant issue. This inequity impacts how restaurants choose to compensate their staff and has prompted legislative efforts to create a more balanced system.Restaurant Service Fees Strike a New Nerve: How They're TaxedA Georgia appeals court has paused the criminal case against Donald Trump, who is accused of attempting to overturn the 2020 election results, while it considers his request to disqualify lead prosecutor Fani Willis. This decision halts progress toward a trial for Trump and 14 co-defendants until the appeal is resolved. Trump's appeal argues that Willis, the Fulton County District Attorney, has a conflict of interest due to an alleged romantic relationship with a former top deputy.The case is one of four legal battles Trump faces as he campaigns to reclaim the presidency. Recently, a New York jury found Trump guilty of concealing hush money payments to a porn star, a verdict he plans to appeal. Two federal cases, involving attempts to overturn the election and mishandling classified documents, are also entangled in legal delays.In the Georgia case, prosecutors intend to appeal a previous ruling that dismissed some charges in the indictment. The appeal process is expected to take several months, with oral arguments scheduled for October. Trump and his co-defendants have pleaded not guilty to racketeering and other charges related to the alleged scheme to reverse his narrow loss in Georgia.Trump election interference case paused in Georgia during challenge to prosecutor | ReutersAmazon is facing a £1 billion ($1.3 billion) lawsuit in the UK, filed by the British Independent Retailers Association (BIRA) on behalf of about 35,000 small retailers. The lawsuit accuses Amazon of misusing non-public data from these retailers to promote its own competing products, thus boosting its market share and profits. BIRA's Chief Executive, Andrew Goodacre, stated that small retailers are compelled to use Amazon due to its extensive reach, but the case aims to prevent Amazon from driving them out of business.The lawsuit also claims that Amazon manipulated the "Buy Box" feature on its website to its advantage. This feature, which showcases select products at the top of product pages, is already under investigation by Britain's Competition and Markets Authority (CMA) for its impact on fair competition.

Ivar was charismatic. His charisma was not natural. Ivar spent hours every day just preparing to talk. He practiced his lines for hours like great actors do.2. Ivar's first pitch was simple, easy to understand, and legitimate: By investing in Swedish Match, Americans could earn profits from a monopoly abroad.3. Joseph Duveen noticed that Europe had plenty of art and America had plenty of money, and his entire astonishing career was the product of that simple observation. — The Days of Duveen by S.N. Behrman.  (Founders #339 Joseph Duveen: Robber Baron Art Dealer)4. Ivar studied Rockefeller and Carnegie: Ivar's plan was to limit competition and increase profits by securing a monopoly on match sales throughout the world, mimicking the nineteenth century oil, sugar, and steel trusts.5. When investors were manic, they would purchase just about anything. But during the panic that inevitably followed mania, the opposite was true. No one would buy.6. The problem isn't getting rich. The problem is staying sane. — Charlie Munger7. Ivar understood human psychology. If something is limited and hard to get to that increases desire. This works for both products (like a Ferrari) and people (celebrities). Ivar was becoming a business celebrity.8.  I've never believed in risking what my family and friends have and need in order to pursue what they don't have and don't need. — The Essays of Warren Buffett by Warren Buffett and Lawrence Cunningham. (Founders #227)9. Great ideas are simple ideas: Ivar hooked Durant with his simple, brilliant idea: government loans in exchange for match monopolies.10. Ivar wrote to his parents, "I cannot believe that I am intended to spend my life making money for second-rate people. I shall bring American methods back home. Wait and see - I shall do great things. I'm bursting with ideas. I am only wondering which to carry out first."11. Ivar's network of companies was far too complex for anyone to understand: It was like a corporate family tree from hell, and it extended into obscurity.12. “Victory in our industry is spelled survival.”   —Steve Jobs13. Ivar's financial statements were sloppy and incomplete. Yet investors nevertheless clamored to buy his securities.14. As more cash flowed in the questions went away. This is why Ponzi like schemes can last so long. People don't want to believe. They don't want the cash to stop.15. A Man for All Markets: From Las Vegas to Wall Street, How I Beat the Dealer and the Market by Ed Thorp. (Founders #222)16.  A summary of Charlie Munger on incentives:1. We all underestimate the power of incentives.2. Never, ever think about anything else before the power of incentives.3. The most important rule: get the incentives right.17. This is nuts! Fake phones and hired actors!Next to the desk was a table with three telephones. The middle phone was a dummy, a non-working phone that Ivar could cause to ring by stepping on a button under the desk. That button was a way to speed the exit of talkative visitors who were staying too long. Ivar also used the middle phone to impress his supporters. When Percy Rockefeller visited Ivar pretended to receive calls from various European government officials, including Mussolini and Stalin. That evening, Ivar threw a lavish party and introduced Rockefeller to numerous "ambassadors" from various countries, who actually were movie extras he had hired for the night.----Get access to the World's Most Valuable Notebook for Founders at Founders Notes----“I have listened to every episode released and look forward to every episode that comes out.

Washington, novembre 1941. L'aube grise éclaire la ville tandis que le Dr Freeman se précipite vers l'hôpital. Une opération délicate l'attend : la lobotomie de Rosemary Kennedy, la fille cachée du clan Kennedy, orchestrée par son père, Joseph P. Kennedy, figure puissante et ambitieuse. Cette intervention marque le début d'une tragédie familiale soigneusement dissimulée au monde. Rosemary, la cadette de John F. Kennedy, grandissait autrefois choyée au sein d'une famille prospère. Son léger retard mental devient un fardeau pour ses parents, obsédés par leur image publique. Redoutant le scandale, ils la cachent et l'éloignent du cercle familial, tandis que les Kennedy sont frappés par une série de drames, dont les assassinats de John Fitzgerald Kennedy et de Robert Kennedy. Ce récit explore les zones d'ombre de la famille Kennedy, révélant la face cachée d'une dynastie marquée par le pouvoir, l'ambition et les secrets. La lobotomie de Rosemary, symbole d'une époque révolue où les personnes handicapées mentales étaient marginalisées, met en lumière les injustices et les sacrifices consentis au nom de l'image et du statut social.

Kennedy, and other prominent figures were involved in various schemes to forward a vast global conspiracy, involving the Mafia and corrupt politicians, brutal oil and drug cartels, rogue military operations, and more -https://ia601308.us.archive.org/15/items/nsia-RobertsBruce/nsia-RobertsBruce/Roberts%20Bruce%2001.pdf Operation Northwoods - Operation Northwoods was a proposed "not true flag" operation that originated within the US Department of Defense of the United States government in 1962. The proposals called for CIA operatives to both stage and commit acts of terrorism against American military and civilian targets, blaming them on the Cuban government, and using it to justify a war against Cuba. The possibilities detailed in the document included the remote control of civilian aircraft which would be secretly repainted as US Air Force plane, a fabricated 'shoot down' of a US Air Force fighter aircraft off the coast of Cuba, the possible assassination of Cuban immigrants, sinking boats of Cuban refugees on the high seas, blowing up a U.S. ship, and orchestrating terrorism in U.S. cities. The proposals were rejected by President John F. Kennedy - https://archive.org/details/OperationNorthwoods/page/n11/mode/2up Email me: thebravenewworldorderpodcast@gmail.com Follow me on Twitter: @Bravenwopodcast If you enjoy The Brave New World Order Podcast buy me a coffee and help it grow!

To figure out what will happen in the future, we typically make guesswork predictions and look to particular periods in the past that seem like potential parallels.My guest says that to figure out what will happen next, and how best to navigate that coming landscape, the best things to consider are those that have been true in every time, and will be true until the end of it.Morgan Housel is a venture capitalist and the author of Same as Ever: A Guide to What Never Changes. Today on the show we talk about ideas and principles that never change that can help you be successful in an ever-changing world, including how the biggest risks are those you can't see, how the idea of compound interest applies beyond your finances, how your expectations can sabotage your happiness, why you need to learn to accept that things are supposed to be hard, and how success can lead to failure.

On this day in legal history the Securities and Exchange Commission was established.During the 1920s, the United States experienced a period of economic growth known as the "Roaring 20s," characterized by prosperity, consumerism, and increased debt. Many people invested in the stock market, taking huge risks without federal oversight. However, on October 29, 1929, known as "Black Tuesday," the stock market crashed, causing widespread losses and a loss of public confidence. This crash led to the closure of thousands of banks, bankruptcies, high unemployment rates, wage cuts, and homelessness, ultimately triggering the Great Depression.In response to the stock market crash and to prevent future crises, the U.S. Senate Banking Committee conducted hearings in 1932, known as the Pecora hearings. These hearings revealed widespread misconduct in the financial industry, including misleading investors, irresponsible behavior, and insider trading. As a result, the Securities Act of 1933 was passed, requiring registration of most securities sales and aiming to prevent fraud by ensuring investors received truthful financial information.The Glass-Steagall Act, also a response to the Pecora hearings, was passed in 1933. It separated investment banking from commercial banking and established the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC) to oversee banks, protect consumers' deposits, and handle consumer complaints.To further regulate the securities industry, President Franklin D. Roosevelt signed the Securities Exchange Act in 1934, on this day in fact, creating the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC). The SEC was granted extensive powers to regulate the securities industry, including the New York Stock Exchange, and had the authority to bring civil charges against violators of securities laws. Joseph P. Kennedy, a Wall Street investor and businessman, was appointed as the first chairman of the SEC by President Roosevelt.It is also obviously the anniversary of the Normandy landings – while not explicitly a day in legal history, it is safe to say the second half of the 20th century in American jurisprudence might have transpired differently had the invasion gone differently. The SEC is busy on its birthday. Today, the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) filed a lawsuit against Coinbase Inc, the largest cryptocurrency asset trading platform in the United States. The SEC accused Coinbase of operating illegally without registering with the regulatory agency. According to the complaint, Coinbase has been functioning as an unregistered broker since at least 2019, conducting cryptocurrency transactions and evading disclosure requirements designed to protect investors. The SEC further stated that Coinbase Prime, a service that directs orders to Coinbase's platform and other platforms, as well as Coinbase Wallet, which enables investors to access liquidity outside of Coinbase's platform, also operated as unregistered brokers. Gary Gensler, the Chair of the SEC, expressed via Twitter that Coinbase's alleged failures deprived investors of crucial protections against fraud, manipulation, conflicts of interest, and routine inspection.Coinbase's stock experienced a 15.9% decline in premarket trading following the filing of the lawsuit, and the company did not immediately respond to requests for comment. This SEC lawsuit against Coinbase came just one day after the regulator had filed a separate lawsuit against Binance, the world's largest cryptocurrency exchange, and its founder, Changpeng Zhao. The lawsuit against Coinbase was submitted in Manhattan federal court. This development adds to the regulatory scrutiny faced by major cryptocurrency platforms, highlighting concerns over compliance and investor protection.By way of additional background on the aforementioned Binance suit, the SEC alleges that Binance and Zhao engaged in deceptive practices, conflicts of interest, lack of disclosure, and evasion of the law. They are accused of secretly allowing high-value U.S. customers to trade on the Binance.com platform while publicly claiming to restrict them. Additionally, the SEC claims that Binance.US, which was presented as an independent platform for U.S. investors, was actually controlled by Zhao and Binance behind the scenes.The SEC also alleges that Zhao and Binance had control over customer assets, permitting commingling and diversion of funds, including to an entity owned by Zhao called Sigma Chain. Furthermore, the SEC asserts that Binance and BAM Trading operated as unregistered national securities exchanges, broker-dealers, and clearing agencies. They are charged with offering and selling their own crypto assets, including BNB and BUSD, without proper registration. Zhao is held responsible as a control person for these violations.SEC Chair Gary Gensler emphasized the extensive deception and evasion of regulations by Zhao and Binance. He cautioned the public against investing with or on these unlawful platforms. The complaint filed by the SEC seeks accountability for the alleged violations of securities laws and investor protection.US SEC sues Coinbase, one day after suing Binance | ReutersSEC Files 13 Charges Against Binance Entities and Founder Changpeng ZhaoTwo former partners of Lewis Brisbois were forced out of the boutique they had started after their former firm released a collection of racist, sexist, and antisemitic emails they had written while employed there. You will remember we previously reported on their spin-off firm, when they were able to convince more than a hundred Lewis Brisbois attorneys to follow them. The remaining leaders of the spin-off boutique, which was formed by John Barber and Jeff Ranen, will establish a new firm. The partners' former firm, Lewis Brisbois, shared a series of emails spanning more than a decade that revealed disparaging remarks made by Barber and Ranen about female associates, clients, and others, as well as their use of racist, antisemitic, and anti-LGBTQ slurs. Following the release of the emails, Barber and Ranen resigned from Barber Ranen, expressing their remorse and apologizing for their words.The exposure of these emails could negatively impact recruitment efforts for both Lewis Brisbois and the new boutique. It may also result in client losses for the firms. The incident has drawn attention to the need for a more inclusive and respectful culture in the legal profession. The former partners have stated that they will take time away from the legal business to reflect on their actions and explore ways to demonstrate their contrition and commitment to a more inclusive world. The release of these emails has prompted discussions about the need for ethical training and quality control in the legal profession.Ex-Lewis Brisbois Partners Ousted Over Racist, Sexist Emails (1)Texas has emerged victorious in its antitrust lawsuit against Google as a U.S. judicial panel has ordered the case to be returned to federal court in Texas. Initially, Google had succeeded in moving the lawsuit to a federal court in New York upon its request, where other advertising technology cases were being heard. However, Texas sought to have the case moved back after the U.S. Congress passed the Venue Act in 2022, granting state attorneys general the right to choose the jurisdiction for litigating antitrust lawsuits. The Texas lawsuit accuses Google of violating the law by exerting control over the process used by advertisers to place online ads, resulting in reduced revenues for website publishers. Google has expressed its disagreement with the decision, asserting that the Texas Attorney General's case is flawed in terms of both facts and law. The case will now be heard in the eastern district of Texas, known for its efficiency in handling cases. Google is facing antitrust lawsuits globally, with allegations of abuse of dominance in various areas of its businesses. Apart from the Texas lawsuit, Google is also battling the U.S. federal government in two separate antitrust lawsuits related to search dominance and advertising technology, while states led by Utah have accused the company of violating antitrust laws in its management of the app store.Texas wins round against Google as antitrust lawsuit returned to Lone Star state | ReutersHey, looky here – its Column Tuesday again!This week I wrote about the Texas tax on electric vehicles and its overall wrongheadedness. I tried to give credit where credit was due, Texas has it partially right—the state is just taxing the wrong thing, at the wrong time, with the wrong rate, and for the wrong reasons. Other than that, the EV tax is a great idea.About that tax: starting from September, Texas will impose a $400 initial registration fee and a $200 annual renewal fee for EV owners. The rationale behind the fee is to offset the portion of the gas tax that goes towards infrastructure and road maintenance, which EVs do not contribute to. However, I argue that the bill is more about protecting the oil and gas industry and winning a culture war than about effective policy. The bill excludes hybrid vehicles and other small electric vehicles from the tax, leading to logical inconsistencies.An alternative approach I suggest is to implement a tax based on the kilowatt hours used at public chargers. This would more accurately reflect the use of infrastructure by EVs and could fund public charging infrastructure. The tax could also be adjusted based on income to address regressiveness. However, if the goal of the tax is to offset wear and tear on roads and bridges, hybrid vehicles, which have higher fuel efficiency than traditional gasoline-powered cars, should also be subject to such a tax.The new EV tax in Texas results in EV drivers paying more for road maintenance compared to gas-powered car drivers.While there may be a need for a tax on EVs in the future when they become more prevalent, it should be implemented with careful consideration and for the right reasons. The current EV tax in Texas is misguided and poorly designed.Texas' New EV Tax Should Fix the Bridges, Not ‘Own the Libs' Get full access to Minimum Competence - Daily Legal News Podcast at www.minimumcomp.com/subscribe

This supplemental series examines the continued obsessions many Americans have with the Kennedy political dynasty, ranging from Oliver Stone's 1991 hit movie "JFK" to the current QAnon conspiracy theorists' preoccupation with the idea that certain Kennedys faked their deaths. This episode provides background to the rise of Kennedy political family by focusing on the controversial career of Joseph P. Kennedy, Senior (the father of President John F. Kennedy). It examines Joe Kennedy's rise to wealth & power through various business ventures, including banking, stock trading, investments in the film industry, and importing liquor after the repeal of Prohibition. We also consider the most infamous aspects of Joe's life, including his decision to lobotomize his intellectually disabled daughter Rosemary, and his efforts to appease the fascist Axis powers as US Ambassador to the UK in the years immediately preceding the Second World War.Support the show (https://www.patreon.com/boomertomillennial/posts)

Christopher Kennedy - Top Box Foods - Year Round Access To Nutritious Foods, In Food Insecure Areas

 A "food desert" is an area that has limited access to affordable and nutritious food, and the designation considers both the type and quality of food available, as well as the accessibility of the food through the size and proximity of the food stores. In 2010, the United States Department of Agriculture reported that 23.5 million people in the U.S. lived in food deserts, meaning that they live more than one mile from a supermarket in urban or suburban areas and more than 10 miles from a supermarket in rural areas. Food deserts tend to be inhabited by lower-income residents with reduced mobility, making them a less attractive market for large supermarket chains and available foods are often of the highly processed type, high in sugars and fats, which are known contributors to the proliferation of obesity and other chronic diseases. It's estimated that the contribution of food deserts to healthcare costs in the U.S. is over $70 billion annually. Top Box Foods is a non-profit, community-based, social business, with an innovative model of getting healthy and affordable grocery boxes to food-insecure neighborhoods, creating year round access to fresh fruits, vegetables, and proteins, in communities in Chicago, and Lake County, IL, as well as in New Orleans, LA. Mr. Christopher Kennedy, along with his wife Sheila Kennedy, is a co-founder of Top Box Foods. In addition to Top Box Foods, Mr. Kennedy is Chairman of the Board of Trustees of Joseph P. Kennedy Enterprises, Inc., treasurer of the Joseph P. Kennedy Jr. Foundation, serves on the public boards of Interface, Inc., and Knoll Inc., and is a trustee for the Marine Biological Laboratory at University of Chicago. Mr. Kennedy earned his BA from Boston College and his MBA from the Kellogg Graduate School of Management at Northwestern University, where he serves on their Global Advisory Board. Mr. Kennedy has also served as Chair of the Board of Trustees for the University of Illinois, and president of Merchandise Mart Properties, a commercial property management firm based in Chicago. Mr. Kennedy is one of the children of Ethel Kennedy and the late U.S. Senator Robert F. Kennedy.

This episode of What’s New in APE is extra special, as we have a guest moderator taking the reins today. Dr. Barry Lavay (@BarryLavay), an adapted physical education professor at California State University, Long Beach and longtime contributor to the podcast, has been so kind to bring his expertise and personality to the podcast. In fact, for the next two episodes Dr. Lavay will be interviewing Dr. Geoffrey Broadhead (@geoffbroadhead) about his career in the field of adapted physical activity (APA), as well as his insights on the status of field and where we are going. Dr. Geoffrey Broadhead is a pioneer in the field of a APA and has many noteworthy achievements. More specifically, Dr. Broadhead is the founding editor for the quintessential Adapted Physical Activity Quarterly (APAQ) journal, and a former professor of adapted physical activity at Louisiana State University and Kent State University. In addition, Dr. Broadhead has received a number of honors and awards for his contribution to the profession such as SHAPE Fellow member, the NCPEID Hollis Fait Scholarship Award recipient in 1988 for recognition of his distinguished scholarly contributions to APA, National Advocacy Award from the Joseph P. Kennedy Jr. Foundation, and since 1996 Editor Emeritus of APAQ the official journal of IFAPA. For this very first episode, Dr. Lavay talks to Dr. Broadhead about his upbringing and professional training in England, and how he made the transition to the United States of America and the field of APA. Within this topic, they have an in-depth discussion about how Dr. Broadhead became initially interested in health and physical education for individuals with disabilities. Dr. Broadhead also shares his insights on what he learned from pioneers he studied with in the field of APA when he first began his career. Furthermore, they will begin to discuss some of Dr. Broadhead’s research interests, which have focused on an array of topics, including some crucial work on physical fitness testing for individuals with intellectual disabilities, that laid the foundation for many of the laws that have incorporated language regarding APA today.

Her election to the Boston City Council in 2009 marked the first time a woman of color was elected to the Council in its 100-year history. This laid the foundation for Ayanna’s groundbreaking work, with which she has consistently strived to improve the lives of people that have too often been left behind. Ayanna is currently seeking the Democratic nomination for the Massachusetts 7th Congressional District. Raised in Chicago as the only child of an activist mother who instilled in her the value of civic participation, Ayanna understands the role that government should play in helping to lift up communities that are in need of the most help. After her election to the Council in 2009, she successfully pursued the establishment of the Committee on Healthy Women, Families, and Communities. The Committee addresses causes that Ayanna has always been most devoted to: stabilizing families and communities, reducing and preventing violence and trauma, combating poverty, and addressing issues that disproportionately impact women and girls. Ayanna is intentional about engaging community voices in leading and informing policy by making sure they have a seat at the table. In her eight-year tenure on the Council, she has: Revised and mandated enforcement of a pregnant and parenting teen policy for Boston Public Schools to strengthen pathways to graduation and to reduce the dropout rate Developed a comprehensive sexual education and health curriculum that is culturally competent, medically accurate, and age appropriate, which was successfully adopted as a permanent part of the Boston Public Schools’ wellness policy Convened the first listening-only hearing in the Boston City Council’s history, where 300 families impacted by homicide testified, which strengthened her resolve to continue her advocacy for trauma supports Partnered with Dr. Monique Morris, Founder of the National Black Women’s Justice Institute, to convene focus groups in evidence based research to reform school disciplinary policies that contribute to the school to prison pipeline for black and latina girls Successfully pushed for the creation of 75 new liquor licenses, 80 percent dedicated to disenfranchised neighborhoods, resulting in the creation of dozens of new restaurants and hundreds of jobs Ayanna’s legislative achievements resulted in her being the top vote-getter in three consecutive elections, making her the first woman in 30 years to achieve this distinction and the first person of color to top the ticket. Prior to being elected to the Boston City Council, Ayanna worked as a Senior Aide for Congressman Joseph P. Kennedy II and later Senator John Kerry.

Jill Abramson (AB '76, Harvard), former New York Times Executive Editor; Senior Lecturer, English Department, Harvard University Hear Professor Jill Abramson’s spellbinding discussion of her distinguished career in journalism. Setting the stage with her first reporting assignment, she describes how Time magazine sparked her interest in journalism by fortuitously calling her while she was working on Nantucket in the summer of ’73. Word was spreading that a jeep driven by a scion of the Kennedy family had flipped, and Time wanted details but a storm prevented reporters from reaching the island. A student with no reporting experience, Abramson delivered, and the world learned that Joseph P. Kennedy 3d had crashed his jeep, paralyzing teenager Pamela Kelley for life. Several years later, after graduating from Harvard, Abramson embarked on a career in journalism defined by integrity, talent and courage. She ultimately held senior editorial positions at The Wall Street Journal and became the first woman Washington Bureau Chief, Managing Editor and Executive Editor of The New York Times. During this podcast, Professor Abramson reflects on the challenge of deciding whether to hold back stories in light of national security interests, the satisfaction of a particular Pulitzer, and the joy of teaching journalism to Harvard, Yale and Princeton students.

Change Your Story, Change Your Life

YOUR LAST BAD DAY How can a severe accident, a near death experience, become a person’s greatest gift? You will discover the inspiring answer to that question in this podcast. Michael OBrien was living a successful life – on the surface. He had a career, money, family, everything that is supposed to add up to happiness. Behind this facade, at the core of his being, he felt trapped and unfulfilled. In his own words, he was a “human doer,” not a human being. Unfortunately,  many people live this way. Fortunately,  you don’t have to almost lose your life to transform from human doer to human being. Michael’s experience and the lessons he learned from it can help you enrich your life personally and financially. Michael fell in love with bicycles as a child. His passion for cycling grew into his adulthood. He took his bike with him on a business trip with the intention of combining work with pleasure. That decision almost killed him. For a while, it turned him into a vengeful person. Learn how he  turned anger into love, fear into courage, despair into hope, how he stopped being a victim to life’s circumstances and became a victor instead. Michael OBrien offers you many other gems in today’s episode. He illuminates the difference between chasing happiness and being truly happy; he helps you understand the importance of your moment to moment self talk and why you should doubt your doubts. There’s more than exciting, valuable, serious stuff in today’s episode. There’s warmth, humor, and entertainment. So join us for some fun and enrichment.

Today’s guest is none other than the young man many are beginning to call “The next President Kennedy.” Representing the 4th Congressional District of Massachusetts is Joseph P. Kennedy III. This year, when the Republican leadership was bent yet again on repealing Obamacare, and Speaker Paul Ryan was quoted saying that it was “an act of mercy” to end this health care program, Representative Kennedy gave an impassioned speech suggesting, instead, that it was “an act of malice.” In our conversation, you get a glimpse into the heart of this man that makes it his mission to bring his soul’s force for good into this world through his public service.  His wisdom, kindness, compassion, and dedication are exactly what we need more of in the halls of Congress.

kennedy-everett.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;">Fifty years ago this week, the nation experienced one of the seminal moments of the 20th century.  Along with two world wars, the dawning of the nuclear age, and the landing of men on the moon, the assassination of JFK was one of the century’s tentpoles.  As such, it never ceases to fascinate us.  What other event of the 20th century still conjures up as many unanswered questions?  Is there anyone who still believes that Lee Harvey Oswald acted alone and that the Warren Commission is accurate?  I’d say probably the same number that believes Elvis is still alive.  Author and legal analyst Mark Shaw postulates a new theory of case. One that has as it progenitor the callus and politically expedient actions of the Kennedy patriarch Joseph P. Kennedy. He makes his case in The Poison Patriarch: How the Betrayals of Joseph P. Kennedy Caused the Assassination of JFK.My conversation with Mark Shaw:

Forty-nine years ago last month JFK’s assassination brought the end of Camelot. Yet the Kennedy legacy and even the Kennedy Dynasty still continues. A political dynasty that was, at its core, the dream of one man. Joseph Patrick Kennedy the father of Jack, and Bobby and Teddy. Joseph Kennedy was a Zelig like character, whose impact was part of almost everything in the first half of the 20th century. To the extent that the Kennedys have had a profound effect on this nation, then Joseph Kennedy was the progenitor of that impact. It’s worth taking a look at his remarkable, and complex life, as David Nasaw has done in The Patriarch: The Remarkable Life and Turbulent Times of Joseph P. Kennedy.
