Glenn has multiple examples that prove the Bubba effect is happening. Do you believe the explanations the government gives you for most stories or that justice will be served? Are a group of Democrat members of Congress advocating sedition? You cannot politicize the chain of control without breaking the republic. Glenn reads a list of red flags that always lead to a broken government. When a bank detects suspicious activity, it is required to file a “Suspicious Activity Report.” Over 14 years, JPMorgan filed seven SARs against Jeffrey Epstein, despite thousands of suspicious activity flags. Glenn discusses the failed Housing Stabilization Services program after years of evidence that it was primarily used for fraud. Ahead of Thanksgiving, Glenn speaks on the story of America and the importance of gratitude.

Sales leadership isn't just about hitting numbers—it's about creating a strategic framework that transforms your entire organization into a revenue-generating machine. When you shift from viewing sales as a transactional function to positioning it as the strategic heartbeat of your company, everything changes. In this conversation with John Allen, CRO of GNA Partners, we explore how to build a consultative selling culture that puts customer outcomes first. John shares his journey from operations to sales leadership, revealing how his operational background became his secret weapon in creating systematic approaches to revenue generation. The Power of Operational Thinking in Sales Coming from an operations background gave John a unique perspective on sales strategy. Instead of relying on gut feelings or "the way we've always done it," he applied systematic thinking to every aspect of the sales process. This operational mindset became the foundation for scaling GNA Partners from a lifestyle business to a national player in the HR outsourcing space. Building a Revenue Culture That Actually Works Creating visibility into key metrics was the first step in transforming GNA's sales organization. By implementing Salesforce and making pipeline data transparent across the team, John created accountability and clarity around what success looks like. But transparency alone wasn't enough; the team needed to understand how their individual contributions connected to the company's broader strategic goals. The Two-Opportunities-Per-Week Framework After analyzing five years of data from top performers, John discovered something remarkable: the highest-producing reps consistently added two legitimate opportunities to their pipeline every week. This simple metric became the North Star for the entire sales organization, cutting through the noise of countless KPIs to focus on what truly drives results. Here's what you'll learn from this episode: How to transition from transactional selling to strategic consulting that builds long-term client relationships. The systematic approach to onboarding new sales talent that accelerates time-to-productivity. Why pipeline coverage ratios matter and how to calculate the right targets for your team. The critical role of sales leadership in reinforcing methodology through hands-on coaching. How to create accountability systems that drive consistent performance across your sales organization. John's approach proves that when you combine operational discipline with consultative selling principles, you create a sustainable competitive advantage. His insights on balancing pipeline development with rep growth offer a roadmap for any sales leader looking to scale their organization effectively. Whether you're struggling with inconsistent performance, looking to implement a proven sales methodology, or seeking to create better alignment between sales and operations, this conversation provides actionable strategies you can implement immediately. Key Moments of This Episode 00:00:00 - Customer-Centric Sales Philosophy: Focus on People and Relationships Sales success requires removing noise and focusing on adding two legitimate opportunities weekly to your pipeline. People buy from people, making the customer experience and relationship-building the ultimate differentiator when all providers offer similar solutions. 00:01:14 - Meet John Allen: CRO Journey from Banking to HR Outsourcing Leadership John Allen shares his 17-year journey at GNA Partners, transitioning from JP Morgan banking to becoming CRO of a Professional Employer Organization serving 4,500+ clients nationwide with comprehensive HR outsourcing services. 00:03:52 - Family Business to Private Equity: GNA Partners' Growth Transformation GNA Partners evolved from a family-owned business founded by John Allen Sr. and Tony Gralva to a private equity-backed company with TPG Capital, positioning for significant growth in the PEO space. 00:08:25 - Elevating Sales from Revenue Engine to Strategic Leadership Function Transforming sales teams from transactional order-takers to strategic consultants requires understanding client operations and positioning solutions through the customer's lens, focusing on business efficiency and profitability rather than just hitting numbers. 00:13:27 - Shifting from Transactional to Strategic Partnership Selling Successful sales transformation requires expertise in your field, maintaining a robust pipeline to eliminate desperation, and approaching conversations as collaborative problem-solving sessions rather than traditional sales pitches focused on closing deals. 00:21:03 - Building Revenue Culture Through Visibility and Measurement Systems Creating a revenue-focused culture starts with implementing CRM systems like Salesforce for complete visibility, establishing clear quotas and forecasts, and connecting individual sales goals to broader company objectives and resource allocation. 00:28:22 - The Two Opportunities Per Week Formula for Sales Success Analysis of top performers revealed a consistent pattern: adding two legitimate opportunities weekly (96 annually) correlates directly with quota achievement, providing sales teams a clear, actionable KPI to focus on. 00:33:33 - Operationalizing Sales Onboarding: From Hiring to Pipeline Generation Effective onboarding varies by experience level, featuring 90-day programs covering industry knowledge, tools training, and providing 600-750 vetted accounts to new reps, ensuring a systematic approach to sales development and early performance assessment. 00:43:32 - Implementing Sales Methodology: Sandler Selling System Integration GNA Partners adopted the Sandler selling methodology company-wide, requiring certification for all reps and parallel training for sales leaders to ensure consistent reinforcement and application of consultative selling principles. 00:50:56 - Sales Leadership Excellence: The Four Critical Competencies Effective sales leaders must excel in at least two-three areas: recruiting talent, understanding and selling the product, mastering sales enablement tools, or being exceptional at closing deals to maintain credibility and effectiveness.

Reports indicate that newly unsealed court records reveal Jeffrey Epstein's estate discovered a previously unknown cache of videos and photographs that may contain highly sensitive or potentially illegal material. According to the filings, the estate alerted federal authorities and legal representatives for survivors once the cache was located, and the material is now being reviewed under restricted access. The revelation has raised immediate questions about how such evidence remained undiscovered during prior raids and investigations, and why it is only surfacing years after Epstein's death, despite the public insistence that all relevant materials were already collected by law enforcement.These reports also note that the discovery aligns with long-standing claims from survivors and insiders that Epstein systematically recorded activities inside his properties, allegedly capturing compromising encounters involving high-profile individuals. Advocates have argued for years that Epstein used surveillance as leverage and protection, and the existence of a hidden archive intensifies speculation about who may be depicted on the recovered media. The finding further fuels concerns about transparency, chain of custody, and the possibility that critical evidence was concealed, misplaced, or withheld, leaving the public once again questioning whether the full truth surrounding Epstein's network has ever genuinely been revealed.Former Barclays CEO Jes Staley and his legal team forcefully rejected allegations made by JPMorgan Chase, describing them as “slanderous” and “baseless but serious.” The dispute emerged during litigation in Manhattan, where lawsuits filed by the U.S. Virgin Islands and a survivor identified as Jane Doe 1 accused Staley of having closely associated with Jeffrey Epstein's trafficking network, including claims that he exchanged hundreds of emails with Epstein containing disturbing content. Staley's lawyers argued that the accelerated trial schedule was unnecessary and unfair, insisting that he had been given insufficient time to prepare an adequate defense. JPMorgan, in turn, pursued legal action against Staley, seeking to recover compensation and asserting that he was central to decisions that allowed Epstein to operate as a client for years. The bank maintained that Staley was “inextricably linked” to the case, pointing to his long relationship with Epstein dating back to his tenure at JPMorgan in the early 2000s. Staley ultimately resigned as CEO of Barclays in 2021 amid scrutiny from UK regulators over his Epstein ties, and the legal confrontation highlighted the reputational fallout and lingering uncertainty surrounding the financial institutions and executives connected to Epstein's network.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-epstein-chronicles--5003294/support.
Interview with Stephen Hanson, President & CEO of Surface Metals Inc.Our previous interview: https://www.cruxinvestor.com/posts/surface-metals-csesur-former-lithium-player-pivots-to-nevada-gold-with-walker-lane-project-7467Recording date: 21st November 2025Surface Metals Inc. (CSE: SUR) has strategically positioned itself across two commodity cycles through its April 2025 acquisition of the Cimarron gold project in Nevada whilst maintaining a diversified lithium portfolio anchored by a 300,000+ ton LCE resource at Clayton Valley, California. This dual-commodity approach provides investors with exposure to gold's current bull market and lithium's structural electrification demand.Following recent meetings on Wall Street and Bay Street, President and CEO Steve Hanson reports renewed institutional appetite for junior and mid-cap mining opportunities. Major banks including JP Morgan, Goldman Sachs, UBS, Deutsche Bank, and HSBC forecast gold reaching $5,000 per ounce in 2026, driven by central bank accumulation, interest rate dynamics, and geopolitical tensions. Simultaneously, lithium markets show stabilisation following the 2023-2024 correction, with institutional interest returning to quality projects.The Cimarron gold project, located in Nevada's prolific Walker Lane trend approximately 35 kilometres south of Kinross's Round Mountain mine, benefits from extensive historical work conducted by Newmont and Echo Bay during the 1980s-1990s. Surface Metals has digitised this historical database and created three-dimensional geological models, positioning the company to commence phase one drilling in early 2026 with clear targeting rationale. The programme aims to confirm historical high-grade intercepts, validate a non-43-101 compliant resource, and expand towards a million-ounce target. Shallow oxide mineralisation suggests potential heap leach processing economics - a lower-cost development pathway relevant for junior companies.Surface Metals' lithium portfolio demonstrates geographic and geological diversification across three projects. The Clayton Valley brine project sits immediately northwest of Albemarle's Silver Peak operation - North America's only producing lithium brine facility operational since 1966. The company targets a preliminary economic assessment in 2026, evaluating direct lithium extraction technology offering faster processing and higher recovery versus traditional evaporation ponds. Neighbouring operator SLB's 2025 demonstration facility successfully produced lithium from similar brine chemistry, de-risking technology application.Fish Lake Valley represents exposure to sedimentary claystone lithium mineralisation, sitting contiguous to Ioneer's Rhyolite Ridge project backed by Ford, Toyota, and Panasonic offtakes with 2026 construction commencement planned. Surface Metals actively seeks joint venture partners to fund initial drilling. In Manitoba, NASDAQ-listed Snow Lake Resources earns into the company's pegmatite project through funded exploration whilst Surface Metals maintains carried interest without capital outlay.Capital efficiency distinguishes Surface Metals' approach. The company has reduced operational costs whilst advancing projects through partnership structures and targeted technical work avoiding dilutive capital raises during unfavourable market conditions. Sector consolidation reduced lithium-focused companies from 200-250 to approximately 60, with Surface Metals amongst survivors maintaining intact portfolio positioning to capture recovery momentum.Management contemplates multiple value realisation pathways including asset sales, joint ventures, or corporate restructuring to separate gold and lithium portfolios. In market conditions where commodities experience distinct cycles, portfolio separation could unlock valuation disparities whilst providing shareholders direct exposure to preferred commodity themes.All projects benefit from tier-one North American jurisdictions with established infrastructure, proximity to operating mines, and relatively streamlined permitting. Nevada exploration permits typically achieved in 90-120 days. As gold supply deficits emerge from major producers exhausting high-grade reserves, and lithium supply security achieves strategic priority, Surface Metals' portfolio positioning addresses structural market dynamics favouring quality junior mining opportunities in premier jurisdictions.View Surface Metals' company profile: https://www.cruxinvestor.com/companies/acme-lithiumSign up for Crux Investor: https://cruxinvestor.com

NIO reports Q3 2025 earnings on November 25, 2025, just five days away, with all eyes on whether the company can achieve its first quarterly profit in Q4 despite an escalating battery supply crisis. This episode provides a critical update on the battery shortage situation that has worsened significantly since last week.The battery crisis has reached new levels of desperation. Purchasing managers from major Chinese automakers are now stationed outside CATL headquarters carrying their company seals, booking hotels nearby, and moving their purchasing offices next to battery factories. Senior executives are personally leading battery task forces to secure supply. XPeng CEO He Xiaopeng revealed he has been drinking with all battery manufacturer bosses over the past two weeks trying to secure allocation.CATL reported Q3 2025 revenue of RMB 104.186 billion, up 12.9 percent year-over-year, with net profit of RMB 18.549 billion, up 41.21 percent. The company was operating around the clock in October with production capacity almost unsustainable. JP Morgan's supply-demand model shows power battery industry capacity utilization will exceed 80 percent for the first time since 2022.The crisis is concentrated in two areas: high-nickel ternary batteries used in premium models priced above 300,000 yuan including NIO ES8, Li Auto L8, Xiaomi SU7 Ultra, and Aito M7/M9, plus lithium iron phosphate batteries being diverted from automotive to energy storage applications.Lithium carbonate futures prices have surged 20 percent over the past month, with the most-active contract on Guangzhou Futures Exchange jumping 9 percent in a single session to 95,200 yuan per ton on November 17, approaching the psychological 100,000 yuan threshold. Since November alone, lithium has accumulated nearly 17 percent gains. Ganfeng Lithium Group Chairman Li Liangbin predicted 30 percent demand growth next year, with scenarios projecting lithium could reach 150,000 to 200,000 yuan per ton if demand accelerates.Four factors are driving the lithium price surge: First, China's energy storage lithium battery shipments reached 165 GWh in Q3 2025, up 65 percent year-over-year, with first nine months totaling 430 GWh exceeding 30 percent of all 2024. Energy storage uses the same lithium iron phosphate chemistry as mass-market EVs, creating competition for supply. Second, China's lithium carbonate output growth slowed to 1.4 percent in November while social inventories declined for 13 consecutive weeks, falling to a record low of 28.1 days turnover versus healthy levels of 45-60 days. Third, China's Jiangxiawo lithium mine producing 65,000 tons annually has been shut since August due to expired permits, removing 7,000 tons per month or roughly 10 percent of domestic supply. Fourth, purchase tax policy changes are front-loading demand with domestic lithium carbonate consumption surging to 135,000 metric tons in November, up over 40 percent year-over-year.Tesla Shanghai Gigafactory celebrated its 5 millionth battery pack rolling off the line on November 12, 2025. Tesla independently develops cell chemistry and designs battery pack structure but sources cells from CATL and LG Energy Solution rather than manufacturing in-house. This represents a hybrid self-reliance strategy. However, Tesla's October retail sales in China fell to 26,006 units, the lowest since November 2022, down 35.76 percent year-over-year and 63.64 percent month-over-month, indicating demand problems rather than supply constraints.Automakers are responding with three self-rescue strategies: First, the self-reliant approach represented by Tesla and BYD who develop their own batteries. NIO once pursued this but stopped due to huge R&D costs and is now planning to spin off its battery manufacturing department. Second, the joint venture approach like Li Auto partnering with Sunwoda

Meet my friends, Clay Travis and Buck Sexton! If you love Verdict, the Clay Travis and Buck Sexton Show might also be in your audio wheelhouse. Politics, news analysis, and some pop culture and comedy thrown in too. Here’s a sample episode recapping four takeaways. Give the guys a listen and then follow and subscribe wherever you get your podcasts. Follow the Epstein Money The Epstein Transparency Act, which passed unanimously in the Senate after near-unanimous House approval. Buck breaks down what this means: once President Trump signs the bill, the Justice Department will have 30 days to release Jeffrey Epstein-related files. The discussion explores whether these disclosures will provide real answers or lead to further demands for transparency. Buck emphasizes the unanswered question of Epstein’s billion-dollar fortune and the suspicious financial transactions flagged by JP Morgan and Deutsche Bank. He argues that following the money is key to uncovering the truth. Clay Calls in from Italy Clay calls from Rome and shares details of his mission: delivering an invitation for the Pope to throw out the first pitch at a future Chicago White Sox game, a unique gesture tied to the team’s new ownership and stadium plans. This segment blends sports, faith, and global intrigue, making it a must-hear for fans of both baseball and world affairs. A Critical Race in NC Buck welcomes Michael Whatley, former RNC Chair and current candidate for U.S. Senate in North Carolina. Whatley details the fallout from Governor Roy Cooper’s veto of legislation requiring sheriffs to honor ICE detainers, which has led to a surge in illegal immigration and crime. They discuss shocking statistics, including 21,000 students absent from Charlotte schools in one day due to immigration enforcement fears, and over 200 arrests of criminal illegal aliens in recent ICE operations. Whatley warns of the massive financial burden on state resources—from Medicaid to education—and contrasts his tough-on-crime stance with Cooper’s record of vetoing tax cuts, police pay raises, and bills protecting women’s sports. He predicts the North Carolina Senate race will be the most expensive in U.S. history, with Democrats pouring in hundreds of millions to flip the seat. The Misled Boss Babes Buck dives into a Pew Research study on marriage trends among Gen Z, revealing that only 61% of 12th-grade girls want to marry compared to 74% of boys. He critiques cultural messaging that promotes “boss babe” ideology and hookup culture, arguing it misleads young women and undermines long-term happiness. Buck contrasts this with a resurgence of traditional values among young men, who increasingly reject toxic masculinity narratives and embrace leadership, family, and faith. He calls for a cultural reset that prioritizes stable family formation and meaningful relationships over superficial social media-driven dating norms.

JPMorgan aims to become the first major bank fully powered by AI. What does that mean for the future of banking?
My guest on the show today is Jacob Stephan, Senior Research Analyst at Lake Street Capital Markets. He recently authored a “Crypto Industry” white paper, and I invited him on to break it down. In this episode, Jacob lays out why digital assets have crossed into institutional viability—a “normalization phase” driven by clearer regulation, enterprise-grade infrastructure, and real corporate adoption. We discuss the internet-style adoption curve (crypto at ~7% global penetration), why regulation is the cornerstone of investability (FIT 21 progress, the new FASB fair-value accounting, and pending clarity in the U.S.), and how stablecoins—“dollars with an API”—are emerging as the killer app with multi-trillion settlement volumes. Jacob walks through concrete examples from Visa, Mastercard, and JPMorgan moving beyond pilots to on-chain settlement, and contrasts stablecoins' payment utility with Bitcoin's treasury/“digital gold” role. We also cover the nuanced risks: centralization at the access layer (custody, cloud, compliance), state-by-state regulatory differences, speculative micro-cap “crypto treasury” raises, and why bipartisan momentum reduces—but doesn't eliminate—policy risk. Finally, Jacob shares the “picks and shovels” angle—cloud, fintech/payments, and semiconductors—as scalable ways to participate in the build-out without direct token exposure, and why even low single-digit institutional allocations could materially move the asset class. We discussed a number of crypto currencies in today's episode. Jacob owns SOL, SUI and BTC, and for full disclosure, I also own BTC.

Allegations have circulated that Jamie Dimon knew significantly more about Jeffrey Epstein than he publicly claimed. Dimon has repeatedly insisted that he never met Epstein, never spoke with him, and didn't even recognize his name until after Epstein's 2019 arrest. However, critics point to the fact that Epstein was a major JPMorgan client for roughly 15 years while Dimon was CEO, moving large sums of cash that triggered repeated internal compliance warnings. Senior bank executives reportedly viewed Epstein as an important figure worth cultivating, and Epstein was credited with bringing wealthy, high-value clients into the bank. This has led to widespread skepticism that Dimon—at the very top of the institution—could have known nothing about someone whose transactions drew scrutiny and who was deeply networked inside JPMorgan.Further questions were raised when former executives alleged that Epstein was discussed at senior levels and that Dimon was aware of the relationship years earlier than he acknowledged. Claims surfaced that Dimon was briefed about Epstein at least twice and that internal emails referenced directives encouraging top leadership to “get to know” Epstein for business reasons. Dimon has denied all such assertions, dismissing them as false and insisting he had no knowledge of Epstein's activities or banking arrangements.

Allegations have circulated that Jamie Dimon knew significantly more about Jeffrey Epstein than he publicly claimed. Dimon has repeatedly insisted that he never met Epstein, never spoke with him, and didn't even recognize his name until after Epstein's 2019 arrest. However, critics point to the fact that Epstein was a major JPMorgan client for roughly 15 years while Dimon was CEO, moving large sums of cash that triggered repeated internal compliance warnings. Senior bank executives reportedly viewed Epstein as an important figure worth cultivating, and Epstein was credited with bringing wealthy, high-value clients into the bank. This has led to widespread skepticism that Dimon—at the very top of the institution—could have known nothing about someone whose transactions drew scrutiny and who was deeply networked inside JPMorgan.Further questions were raised when former executives alleged that Epstein was discussed at senior levels and that Dimon was aware of the relationship years earlier than he acknowledged. Claims surfaced that Dimon was briefed about Epstein at least twice and that internal emails referenced directives encouraging top leadership to “get to know” Epstein for business reasons. Dimon has denied all such assertions, dismissing them as false and insisting he had no knowledge of Epstein's activities or banking arrangements. Still, the timeline, the scale of Epstein's financial footprint, and allegations from those once close to the situation have fueled suspicions that Dimon's version of events is incomplete—and that the full truth about the extent of the bank's relationship with Epstein remains obscured.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.com

Today's Headlines: The House is gearing up for a major vote on Wednesday to force the DOJ to release the Epstein files—and suddenly a lot more Republicans are ready to say “yes” now that it's happening in public. Rep. Thomas Massie says they could have 100+ GOP votes and maybe even build a veto-proof majority. Meanwhile, Trump is trying to steer the conversation elsewhere, calling on AG Pam Bondi to investigate Epstein's ties to Clinton, Larry Summers, Reid Hoffman, and JP Morgan—even though Donald Trump himself is the single most mentioned person across those emails. Trump also found time to wage war on Marjorie Taylor Greene, calling her “Marjorie Traitor Greene”. MTG went on CNN to say she's “humbly sorry” for toxic politics and wants the Epstein files released, which… we'll believe when we see it. In other Epstein-adjacent news, several employees at Ghislaine Maxwell's prison were reportedly fired after a whistleblower exposed how much special treatment she's been getting. The DOJ is also in settlement talks with Michael Flynn, who's somehow demanding $50 million in damages for being prosecuted for lying to the FBI back in 2017. As for another distraction tactic, Trump implemented a major rollback of tariffs on beef, coffee, fruits, nuts, spices. He's also rattling sabers with Venezuela as the USS Gerald Ford arrived in the Caribbean. Meanwhile ICE is expanding its aggressive raid tactics to Charlotte and New Orleans. And finally, Indiana lawmakers delivered Trump another L by refusing to redraw their state maps, despite his team begging them to come to the Oval Office so he can “convince” them.

Na 14 jaar is het wel mooi geweest voor Tim Cook. Volgens de Financial Times is de zoektocht naar zijn opvolger als CEO van Apple van start. Geen ruzie, of grote fout. Cook is gewoon op pensioengerechtigde leeftijd, en kan dus van zijn verdiensten gaan genieten. Het levert wel een probleem op, want wie oh wie moet in die grote schoenen van hem gaan staan? En wat betekent die keuze voor de toekomst van Apple? Dat bespreken we deze aflevering. Verder hebben we het over de man die al lang met pensioen had moeten zijn, maar dat eindelijk binnenkort maar eens gaat doen. Warren Buffett zat jarenlang op een geldberg van honderden miljarden dollars, maar geeft nu toch weer wat ervan uit. Zijn Berkshire Hathaway steekt een slordige 5 miljard dollar in Alphabet, het moederbedrijf van Google. En dat terwijl het aandeel Alphabet al een enorme stijging achter de rug heeft. Ook hoor je over tech-investeerder Peter Thiel. Die verkoopt juist zijn grootste belang. Gaat om zijn investering in Nvidia. Dat komt woensdag met de kwartaalcijfers, maar daar gaat Thiel niet op wachten. En we vertellen je over Trump die op de knietjes gaat. Hij geeft toe: zijn importheffingen zorgen voor enorme inflatie.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
Presa internațională continuă să comenteze situația de pe scena politică americană, după ce, vineri, Departamentul de Justiție a declarat că va îndeplini cererea președintelui Donald Trump de a investiga legăturile infractorului sexual Jeffrey Epstein cu fostul președinte democrat Bill Clinton și cu compania JP Morgan. Totul, după ce o comisie a Congresului a publicat mii de documente care au ridicat noi semne de întrebare cu privire la relația lui Trump cu Epstein, observă comentatorii. „Departamentul de Justiție va investiga legăturile lui Epstein, dar nu cu Trump”, sintetizează The New York Times. „Când numeroase e-mailuri ale lui Jeffrey Epstein au fost publicate săptămâna aceasta, numele lui Donald J. Trump era peste tot. Totuși, vineri, când el a cerut ca Departamentul de Justiție să investigheze o listă de figuri influente menționate în aceste e-mailuri, propriul său nume a lipsit”. Ziarul remarcă și faptul că secretara pentru justiție, Pam Bondi s-a conformat solicitării, ”chiar dacă, cu doar patru luni mai devreme, același Departament de Justiție declarase oficial că nimic din dosarele Epstein nu justifica investigații suplimentare”. Potrivit Reuters, ”Trump încearcă să mute atenția de la relația sa cu infractorul sexual condamnat. Scandalul Epstein a fost un ghimpe politic în coasta lui Trump timp de luni de zile, parțial pentru că a amplificat teoriile conspirației despre Epstein în fața propriilor susținători. Aceasta este doar cea mai recentă dintr-o serie de solicitări ale lui Trump către organismele federale de a-i urmări pe presupușii săi dușmani politici”. Citeste si”E-mailurile Epstein” îl pun pe Donald Trump într-o situație dificilă The Washington Post relatează că „Trump a evidențiat trei persoane: Bill Clinton, fostul secretar al Trezoreriei Lawrence H. Summers, și Reid Hoffman, fondatorul LinkedIn și un donator important al Partidului Democrat. Toți au avut relații cu Epstein de ani de zile”, subliniază cotidianul american, citat ce Courrier International. National Review amintește că „În timpul președinției lui Clinton, Epstein a vizitat Casa Albă în mai multe rânduri, iar înregistrările de zbor arată că fostul președinte a călătorit cu avionul său privat de 26 de ori în timpul relației lor, care s-a încheiat în jurul anului 2003. (...) Numele lui Clinton a fost menționat și în procedurile judiciare anterioare dar nu au fost formulate acuzații credibile împotriva lui”, observă revista. ”Trump a sugerat în campania electorală de anul trecut că va încerca să deschidă dosarele Epstein”, amintește National Public Radio. ”Dar el a schimbat cursul în ultimele luni, dând vina pe democrați și prezentând problema drept o farsă”. Vorbind despre proiectul de lege privind declasificarea dosarului Epstein, care va fi supus la vot în această săptămână în Camera Reprezentanților, The Intercept afirmă că ”totul se va putea transforma într-o problemă structurală”: ”Pe de o parte, Trump se confruntă cu un electorat care își dorește în mod covârșitor să fie publicate toate înregistrările și care crede deja că administrația ascunde ce e mai rău. Pe de altă parte, se confruntă cu un Congres care, pentru prima dată, se îndreaptă către o coaliție formată din democrați progresiști și republicani libertarieni. Dacă proiectul de lege trece de Senat și Trump îl semnează, pierde complet controlul asupra documentelor - și a discursului”.

In this episode of the Crypto Rundown Brendan and Tevo break down Bitcoin's sharp move below 100K and a Fear & Greed Index reading near historic panic levels, arguing that, historically, these zones have been great long-term entry points even if more short-term downside is possible. You walk through Bitcoin and Ethereum technicals, highlighting broken support, 200-day moving averages, and RSI setups while stressing caution on leverage but continued dollar-cost averaging for long-term bags. On the fundamental side, you cover JP Morgan's JPM Coin on Base, Tom Lee's aggressive Ethereum target, record-breaking Solana and XRP ETF launches, and a big outflow day from Bitcoin ETFs that doesn't match the overwhelmingly bullish institutional trend. You wrap with a discussion of underperforming fund managers, potential “stimmy” and Trump baby accounts, and a reminder that despite the chop and pain, crypto isn't going anywhere—and everyone is still secretly waiting for altcoin season.Brendan 6 Week Technical Analysis Trading Course https://www.cryptorevolution.com/brendans-mbr-program?utm_source=Internal&utm_medium=YouTube&utm_content=Rundown&utm_term=20251112Momentum Money Makers VIPwww.cryptorevolution.com/memecoins?utm_source=Internal&utm_medium=Podcast&utm_content=MMVIP&utm_term=DescriptionCheck out Plus500: https://plus500.comGet immediate access to my entire crypto portfolio for just $1.00 today! https://www.crypto101insider.com/cryptnation-directm6pypcy1?utm_source=Internal&utm_medium=YouTube&utm_content=Podcast&utm_term=DescriptionGet your FREE copy of "Crypto Revolution" and start making big profits from buying, selling, and trading cryptocurrency today: http://www.cryptorevolution.com/free?utm_source=Internal&utm_medium=YouTube&utm_content=Podcast&utm_term=DescriptionChapters00:00 — Intro, show is back, and framing the episode around big downside volatility and Bitcoin breaking below 100K.01:20 — Fear & Greed Index deep dive, comparisons to past panic moments (tariffs crash, COVID) and what that's meant historically.04:40 — Macro backdrop recap: tariffs, recession fears, and why this drawdown feels different from February even with similar fear readings.07:10 — Bitcoin technical analysis: 200-day moving average breaks, failed breakouts, support/resistance zones, and what levels to watch next.11:50 — Ethereum technicals: similar breakdown structure, potential targets in the 2.7–2.8K zone, and why Brendan is cautious short term but accumulating long term.15:10 — How Brendan is using RSI and higher lows in oversold territory to time entries, plus his micro bull run TA course + live sessions.18:05 — JP Morgan's JPM Coin launches on Base; Jamie Dimon's “capitulation” and what it signals about big-bank adoption of crypto rails.20:20 — Tom Lee's ultra-bullish Ethereum call (9–12K by January), how that ties into stablecoins/tokenization, and your reaction to how realistic that is.23:40 — Solana ETFs (like BSO L) smashing 2025 volume records, then XRP's XRPC ETF topping even that with the biggest day-one volume of the year.27:10 — Bitcoin ETFs see their second-largest day of outflows ever; discussion of “why the panic?” given how strong the fundamentals still look.30:10 — Underperforming fund managers, year-end “window dressing,” and how that might create messy price action into Q4 versus a long-term retail mindset.34:00 — Bitwise chart on who really owns Bitcoin, speculation on future government/bank buying, “stimmy”/tariff check chatter, Trump baby accounts, and closing altcoin-season meme + outro.MERCH STOREhttps://cryptorevolutionmerch.com/Subscribe to YouTube for Exclusive Content:https://www.youtube.com/@crypto101podcast?sub_confirmation=1Follow us on social media for leading-edge crypto updates and trade alerts:https://twitter.com/Crypto101Podhttps://instagram.com/crypto_101*This is NOT financial, tax, or legal advice*Boardwalk Flock LLC.

Episode SummaryIn this episode of the Thread Podcast, host Justin Vandehey sits down with John Queally, Senior Director of Revenue Operations at Clari, to explore how RevOps is evolving in the age of AI, and what it really means to build a data-driven go-to-market organization.John's career spans consulting, analytics at JP Morgan, leadership roles at American Express and Qualtrics, and now Clari — one of the companies that helped define modern RevOps. He shares how his early assumption that tech companies were “amazing at data” turned out to be completely wrong, and why that realization led him to see RevOps as the spinal column and nervous system of every go-to-market organization.Together, they dive deep into:How to unify fractured data systems across sales, marketing, CS, and productThe difference between “tools” and true data architectureWhy AI is exposing every fault line in go-to-market organizationsThe human side of RevOps: partnerships, trust, and communicationWhat “world-class” looks like for RevOps in 2025 and beyondHow to balance machine intelligence with human intuition in salesAnd how leaders can prepare for the next generation of revenue operationsChapters00:00 – Introduction Justin introduces John Queally and his path from consulting and banking to RevOps leadership at Clari.01:10 – From JP Morgan to Clari: The Data Reality Check John shares how his early experience in finance led him to realize how disorganized data is across tech companies — and how that sparked his RevOps journey.03:30 – Defining RevOps as the Spinal Column Why RevOps should serve as the connective nervous system for GTM — ensuring every function operates from the same base of facts.05:00 – What “World-Class” RevOps Looks Like Today John explains how the definition of world-class RevOps is shifting toward data ownership, cohesive field experiences, and AI-enabled decision-making.06:30 – AI vs. Human Intuition The ongoing tension between automation and human instinct in sales — and why RevOps needs to serve as a checkpoint, not a replacement.08:15 – The Future of CRM and GTM Systems A look ahead at how the sales tech stack is evolving beyond monolithic CRMs into a connected ecosystem of specialized tools.10:00 – Machine Learning and Predicting Customer Behavior John shares how Clari partnered with data science firm QuadSci to achieve 94% churn prediction accuracy — and how that insight gets surfaced seamlessly to the field.13:00 – Cross-Functional Alignment at Scale Why true RevOps alignment comes from people, not tickets — and why John's team embeds directly within every GTM function.15:30 – Developing the Next Generation of RevOps Leaders The skills operators need to thrive in this next era — including data fluency, architectural thinking, and strategic ownership.18:00 – The AI Wake-Up Call Why 80% of AI projects fail — and how RevOps leaders can prepare their orgs by fixing data quality and alignment first.20:00 – Closing Thoughts John's reflections on RevOps as a community-driven discipline, the future of collaboration, and why every GTM leader must now own their data story.

In this episode I sit down with Ben Kelly, a former Army intelligence officer who learned inside JP Morgan how real wealth is built and then applied that blueprint to small-business acquisitions. We break down using other people's money with SBA 7(a) loans, what lenders really underwrite, and why accounting firms trade at 1x revenue but can exit at 10 to 12x EBITDA in a rollup. Ben shares how AI increases margins without replacing CPA signatures, plus his own alternative cash-flow plays—from luxury assets and short-cycle supercar deals to semi-truck fleets with powerful tax write-offs. We finish with the hard truth most founders miss: build the foundation as fast as you build the portfolio, and anchor the whole thing to purpose and faith. About Ben KellyBen Kelly is a former U.S. Army Intelligence Officer turned entrepreneur and acquisition specialist. After transitioning from the military into JP Morgan's Private Bank, Ben discovered the strategy ultra-wealthy clients used to grow net worth: business acquisitions.

Bitcoin ETF inflows are exploding as Wall Street and U.S. banks make their biggest push yet into digital assets. Today's market moves come as SoFi Bank becomes the first nationally chartered bank to launch crypto trading, JPMorgan unveils its new deposit token “JPM Coin”, and Visa rolls out a USDC payout pilot to power instant global payments. Meanwhile, Washington is back in action — the government shutdown has officially ended, and the Senate's new crypto market structure bill could hand CFTC oversight of digital assets, setting the stage for the next regulatory era.
JP Morgan just made a massive Ethereum move, and it could signal the start of a new crypto bull market. With institutional money flowing back into blockchain infrastructure, ETH might be on the verge of a major breakout — one that could lift the entire altcoin sector with it.
The deal to reopen the government drives a wedge between Democrats, Florida probes JPMorgan Chase over connections to Operation Arctic Frost, and, on this Veterans Day, we discuss the effects of the shutdown on veterans and service members.

A flurry of AI headlines have investors talking today. Deirdre Bosa breaks all of those down for us – and we discuss with our panel Trivariate's Adam Parker, New York Life Investment's Lauren Goodwin and JPMorgan's Jordan Jackson. Plus, of all the mega-cap companies dolling out hundreds of billions in cap-ex, Apple has escaped much of that scrutiny. The company has often been criticized for being late to the AI party… but could that be a blessing in disguise? We break that down with Steve Kovach and Big Technology's Alex Kantrowitz. And, AMD held its first analyst day in years. We run through the biggest headlines and what it could mean for the stock. Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

Is Your Portfolio Too AI-Heavy? and Does Social Security COLA Keep Up With Inflation? In this episode, Wes Moss shares startling JP Morgan research: just 41 AI-related stocks now account for nearly 50% of the S&P 500's weight, making the market severely overweight in a single theme. Wes offers actionable advice on how to rebalance your portfolio. Also, with the new COLA increase, Wes sets the record straight on Social Security, demonstrating that it has quietly been one of America's best inflation fighters since 1975. He examines the history of COLA adjustments and provides an honest assessment of the fear surrounding the Social Security trust fund running out, clarifying what that worst-case scenario truly means for current and future retirees.
