Eric Reynolds, known online as KetoFiveO, is a retired Florida police officer, sports nutritionist, and metabolic health advocate who transformed his health after years of physical and emotional stress from a career in law enforcement. After being shot in the line of duty in 2012 and later struggling with weight gain, declining health, and alcohol use, Eric began changing his lifestyle through keto and eventually a carnivore-focused approach. He lost approximately 80 pounds and has maintained his transformation while continuing to explore metabolic health, strength, recovery, and longevity. Today, Eric uses his KetoFiveO platform to share his experience with keto and carnivore nutrition, metabolic health, sobriety, and first-responder wellness. He is also the founder of Cops and Campers, a 501(c)(3) nonprofit focused on improving the well-being of first responders, veterans, and their families through nutrition, fitness, rest, community, and the outdoors. Eric lives and travels with his wife and two sons and continues to share the lessons he has learned from law enforcement, trauma, health challenges, and rebuilding his life.  Socials: Instagram, X, FB,TT @KetoFiveO YouTube: @KetoFiveO Reynolds IG, TT, X, FB @CopsAndCampers Website: KetoFiveO.com CopsAndCampers.com Timestamps: 00:00 Trailer 00:33 Introduction 05:18 Police career and medical history 08:42 Coping with heart health in police 10:42 Discussing health concerns with statins 14:40 Physical fitness requirements for cops 16:28 Support system for first responders 21:16 Finding local organic food 23:33 Traveling and finding a lake spot 26:39 Talking about system issues Join Revero now to regain your health: https://revero.com/YT Revero.com is an online medical clinic for treating chronic diseases with this root-cause approach of nutrition therapy.

Mike King started his career on patrol and SWAT with the Ogden City Police Department in Utah before becoming the lead investigator in the 1991 Zion Society case, involving a 120-member polygamist doomsday cult led by self-proclaimed prophet Arvin Shreeve. After a member came forward and revealed what was happening inside the group, Mike and his team launched a secret 24-day investigation that ended with coordinated raids on multiple homes, 32 children being removed from the group, and Shreeve and several members ultimately going to prison. Mike later led multi-agency task forces, served as Chief of Staff to the Utah Attorney General, trained in criminal profiling, and created Profiling Evil. _____________________________________________ Thank you to CASH APP & HIMS for sponsoring this episode: Cash App: Download Cash App Today: https://click.cash.app/ui6m/6pao71et #CashAppPod Cash App is a financial services platform, not a bank.

Eine Folge fast ohne KI, dafür mit Schrödingers Aufnahmesoftware, die uns 8:30 Uhr morgens gleichzeitig mitteilt, dass sie aufnimmt und nicht aufnimmt. Sie hat am Ende aufgenommen.Mein Aufmacher ist eine Wired-Story, die erstaunlich wenig Wellen geschlagen hat: Mandiant hatte ab März eine über Monate aufgebaute Persona im zwölfköpfigen Kernchat von TeamPCP sitzen, ausgerechnet unter dem Namen CanisterWorm. Die Persona war ursprünglich gar nicht auf TeamPCP angesetzt, sondern wurde als Vertrauter eines anderen Akteurs mit hineingezogen. Google las die Kampagne damit von Tag eins mit, kam an den Server mit den gestohlenen Credentials und ließ Tokens bei AWS und Microsoft sperren. Wir diskutieren, ab wann ein privatwirtschaftliches Unternehmen eigentlich Law Enforcement spielt, und wie unbekümmert wir in dieser Branche mit den Identitäten unserer Analysten umgehen.Max erzählt von seinem Wochenende, das mit einer Signal-Nachricht anfing: "Wer wurde hier auch gerade vom BKA angerufen?" Dahinter steckten zwei Pre-Auth-RCEs in Citrix NetScaler, beide 9.5, beide seit Wochen aktiv ausgenutzt, eine davon in jeder Standardinstallation. Die Empfehlung am Samstag lautete schlicht: Gerät vom Netz. Dazu die ehrliche Frage, was eigentlich passieren muss für eine glatte 10.Dann zwei Bug-Bounty-Geschichten, die gut zusammenpassen: Bei Intel steht das bezahlte Programm plötzlich auf "suspended", parallel ist eins ohne jede Auszahlung aufgetaucht. Offiziell beendet ist nichts, kommuniziert wurde bis heute gar nichts. Und ein 16-Jähriger hat mit seinem selbstgebauten Agenten Antares in Microsofts internem Analytics-System Titan Tokens gefälscht, sich als admin ausgegeben und kam an 17 Datenbanken mit geschätzt 17,3 Billionen Zeilen. Dafür gab es 5.000 Dollar. Ich versuche zu erklären, warum das tatsächlich in Line mit Microsofts Tabellen ist, und warum die Debatte darüber trotzdem an der falschen Stelle geführt wird.Zum Schluss ShinyHunters bei Oracle PeopleSoft: Wer die Schwachstelle nicht patchen konnte und stattdessen den Pfad per WAF gesperrt hat, bekam den Exploit einfach als /%50SEMHUB/ zurück. Ein einziges URL-kodiertes Zeichen. Wir geben beide offen zu, dass wir daran auch nicht gedacht hätten. Mandiants Rat dazu ist deutlich: nicht die eine Variante nachpflegen, sondern auf dem normalisierten Pfad filtern, sonst beginnt das Katz-und-Maus-Spiel bei der nächsten Kodierung von vorn.Wired: An Undercover Google Analyst Infiltrated a Notorious Supply-Chain Hacking Ganghttps://www.wired.com/story/an-undercover-google-analyst-infiltrated-a-notorious-supply-chain-hacking-gang/Austin Larsen (GTIG) über die TeamPCP-Operation, LABScon-Talkhttps://www.labscon.io/speakers/austin-larsen/Wie Google TeamPCP von innen aufbrach (Cyber Kendra)https://www.cyberkendra.com/2026/09/how-google-broke-teampcp-from-the-inside.htmlNetScaler CVE-2026-88771 / 88772: FAQ von watchTowrhttps://watchtowr.com/intelligence/citrix-netscaler-zero-day-vulnerabilities-faq/Citrix bestätigt beide Zero-Days (BleepingComputer)https://www.bleepingcomputer.com/news/security/citrix-admins-warned-to-shut-down-netscalers-over-2-exploited-zero-days/Intels Programm ohne Bountieshttps://www.thehackacademy.com/news/intel-public-vulnerability-disclosure-no-bounties/How I Could've Accessed 17 Trillion Microsoft Recordshttps://blog.faav.net/how-i-couldve-accessed-17-trillion-microsoft-recordsMicrosoft Titan: unsigniertes JWT, 17,3 Billionen Zeilen (Help Net Security)https://www.helpnetsecurity.com/2026/09/28/microsoft-titan-jwt-signature-flaw/ShinyHunters umgeht WAF-Regeln bei Oracle PeopleSoft (Mandiant/GTIG)https://www.hendryadrian.com/shinyhunters-renewed-mass-exploitation-campaign-targeting-oracle-peoplesoft-google-cloud-blog/

Rick Fittin grew up in New Jersey, joined the Army, and went on to spend more than 25 years in law enforcement — working his way from patrol officer to K9 officer and eventually police chief. Along the way, he experienced the wild, funny, and unpredictable side of policing that most people never get to hear directly from the officers who lived it. After more than two decades on the job, Rick walked away from law enforcement and started an entirely new chapter of his life. _____________________________________________  #police #cops #TrueCrime #crimestories #k9 _____________________________________________ Thank you to HIMS & CASH APP for sponsoring this episode: Hims: Ready to reach your goals?

Plus, Blackburn discusses the Memphis Safe Task Force, its efforts to combat violent crime and gang activity, and why she believes the federal, state, and local partnership could serve as a model for other American cities.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Send us Fan MailA retired police K9 can survive ten thousand searches and still be taken down by one ordinary day. Chris joins me to tell the story of Tambo, the working dog who powered through years of wear and tear, only to face a sudden medical emergency that no handler is ever ready for: a ruptured spleen mass, internal bleeding, and the terrifying words “he might not make it.” We unpack what that moment looks like in real time, how fast decisions have to be made, and why hemangiosarcoma is known as one of the most brutal “silent killer” cancers in dogs.From there, the conversation expands into the reality of life after service for retired police dogs and military working dogs. We talk ACL tears, the importance of treating K9s like the elite athletes they are, and the financial shock that can follow retirement. We also highlight the impact of Project Canine Hero, the national nonprofit that stepped in to fund critical surgeries and chemotherapy, turning a hopeless situation into more time, more memories, and a bigger mission.Tambo's fight becomes a catalyst for something deeper: Chris's transition into fatherhood at 47, the stress and uncertainty of IVF, and a hard-earned lesson that strength and emotional availability can coexist, especially in first responder culture. We go into forgiveness, breaking generational cycles, and the way a dog's battle unexpectedly helps heal a decades-old wound between father and son. Chris also shares his book, Defying The Odds: The Canine Tambo Story, a children's book version for young readers, and the unique soundtrack he created to bring the chapters to life.If you care about first responder mental health, resilience, retired K9 care, or you just need a true story that refuses to quit, hit subscribe, share this with someone who needs hope, and leave a review so more listeners can find it.DeemedFit: First Responder OwnedWe are a first responder owned company looking to get first responders in the best mental shape.Disclaimer: This post contains affiliate links.

Send us Fan MailEpisode Summary: In this episode, Jason Pack, a retired FBI special agent and public information officer, shares insights from his extensive career in law enforcement and crisis communication. He discusses lessons learned from major incidents like the Boston Marathon bombing, the importance of trust and relationships in crisis communication, and how technology and social media are transforming the field.Jason's BIO: Jason Pack is a retired FBI Supervisory Special Agent, former television reporter, and frequent law enforcement and crisis communications analyst for Fox News, CNN, NewsNation, and the BBC. With more than 30 years of experience in public safety, media relations, and emergency response, he has built a unique career spanning journalism, emergency management, law enforcement, and crisis communications. Pack began his career as a firefighter and EMT in East Tennessee before working as a television news reporter and anchor. He later served with the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA), where he deployed to major disasters nationwide, including the Space Shuttle Columbia disaster and the September 11 terrorist attacks. As a FEMA Public Information Officer, he was deployed to Ground Zero in New York City, an experience that inspired him to join the FBI.

During his career, he led communications efforts and supported some of the nation's most significant crises, including the Boston Marathon bombing, the Pulse Nightclub attack, the Chattanooga military recruiting center shootings, the Nashville Christmas Day bombing, major cyber incidents, child abduction investigations, hostage situations, hurricanes, tornadoes, and wildfires.

Send us Fan MailWhen we talk about police reform, most people immediately think about body cameras, use-of-force policies, civilian review boards, or new laws. Those are important conversations. But today I want to start somewhere different.I want to start with what I believe is one of the biggest problems facing modern policing.We've become exceptionally good at responding to crime.We've become much less capable of preventing it.Think about that for just a second. When someone calls 911 because their house has been burglarized, what has already happened?They've already become a victim.If someone is robbed in a parking lot...If someone is assaulted walking home...If a business owner arrives in the morning to find the front door smashed in...By the time the police get there, the crime has already occurred.Now don't misunderstand me. Responding professionally and investigating thoroughly is incredibly important. Today's police departments have tools that officers from thirty years ago could only dream about.We have Flock camera systems that can track suspect vehicles across an entire region. We have drones that can search large areas in minutes instead of hours. We have incredible forensic technology. We have Cell phone analysis. DNA evidence. Digital evidence. And, security cameras everywhere.Experienced detectives who know exactly how to put all those pieces together.Those technologies have made us dramatically better at solving crimes. And that's something worth celebrating. But solving yesterday's crime doesn't protect today's victim.If my family has already been robbed, catching the suspect next week is certainly better than never catching them at all. Justice matters. Accountability matters. But if we're honest with ourselves, the thing that family really wanted wasn't a better detective investigation. They wanted to never be robbed in the first place.That's the difference between reactive policing and proactive policing.Reactive policing waits for the phone to ring.It waits for the alarm. It waits for the crash. It waits for the shooting. It waits until someone needs help. Then we respond.That's what we do today, and because of the professionalism of officers across this country, we often do it very well.But proactive policing asks a completely different question.How do we stop that phone call from ever happening? How do we identify crime before it occurs? How do we recognize patterns? How do we intervene early enough that someone never becomes a victim?That's a completely different mindset. And I would argue it's the mindset policing was always meant to have.The safest neighborhood isn't the one where detectives solve every homicide. The safest neighborhood is the one where there aren't any homicides to investigate. The best burglary investigation is the burglary that never happens. The best robbery report is the one that never has to be written.Every officer listening to this knows exactly what I'm talking about.Some of the best police work you'll ever do never results in an arrest.It's checking on a suspicious car before it becomes a burglary. It's stopping a stolen vehicle before it reaches another neighborhood. It's talking to teenagers who are headed down the wrong path before they commit their first felony. It's walking through a business district and simply being visible enough that someone decides tonight isn't the night to break into that store.Sometimes the greatest success in policing is invisible.

A disputed home entry. An obstruction arrest. Then allegations that the arresting deputy targeted the homeowner online.What happened to Natasha Lopez, and what should police accountability look like when a citizen's complaint becomes personal?Sgt.

George "Joby" Walters grew up in Ohio, joined the Army, and developed a passion for mechanics and motorcycles before joining the Avengers Motorcycle Club in Alabama. After an injury pushed him away from the club, he eventually landed in Arizona, where he patched into the Hells Angels in the late 1990s and became close personal friends with the legendary Sonny Barger. Over the next decade, Joby found himself in the middle of violent conflicts with rival clubs including the Mongols and Vagos and was present at the infamous Harrah's Casino riot in Laughlin, Nevada, on April 27, 2002, when the Hells Angels and Mongols clashed in one of the most notorious biker confrontations in American history. In the aftermath, he went on the run to Mexico, eventually took a plea deal that sent him to prison, and ultimately made the decision to walk away from the Hells Angels after 10 years. Now, Joby is telling the complete story of what life inside one of the world's most notorious motorcycle clubs was really like — from brotherhood and loyalty to violence, prison, and what it took to finally leave it behind. _____________________________________________ Thank you to HUNGRYROOT, AG1 & CASH APP for sponsoring this episode: Hungryroot: Explore my Hungryroot Digital Cookbook "THE COMMISSARY UPGRADE" at https://hungryroot.com/LOCKEDIN _____________________________________________ AG1: For a limited time, save 20% on your first subscription order of AG1 Next Gen or AG1 Pro at https://drinkag1.com/lockedin _____________________________________________ Cash App: Download Cash App Today: https://click.cash.app/ui6m/6pao71et #CashAppPod Cash App is a financial services platform, not a bank.

Patrick Carr of The Patrick Carr Show joins Two Cops One Donut for a long-form conversation about police, media, accountability, transparency, and how the public decides which version of a story to trust. Lance Fisher of Thin Blue Lie Audits joins as guest co-host alongside regular co-hosts Zoel Murphy and Banning Sweatland. can-you-trust-the-story_-_-patrick-carr-on-police,-media-&-accountability-Sep-21-2026-restream.txtWe get into the problem with forming conclusions from viral clips before the full record is available, what police departments get wrong when communicating controversial incidents, where traditional media and independent creators fall short, and why being willing to admit you were wrong matters. Patrick explains how he approaches breaking stories when he knows additional facts may still emerge. can-you-trust-the-story_-_-patrick-carr-on-police,-media-&-accountability-Sep-21-2026-restream.txtA major part of the episode focuses on the death of 92-year-old Milagros Ortiz following a collision with an Orlando police vehicle. We discuss the officer's driving decision, reported emergency-equipment problems, the department's response, delayed evidence releases, administrative discipline, and the family's civil lawsuit. Patrick also explains how his own view of the case evolved as additional information became available. can-you-trust-the-story_-_-patrick-carr-on-police,-media-&-accountability-Sep-21-2026-restream.txtThe conversation then expands into one of the most important distinctions in police accountability: criminal liability, administrative discipline, and civil liability are not the same thing. An officer can avoid criminal charges while still violating policy, and civil responsibility can exist independently of either. can-you-trust-the-story_-_-patrick-carr-on-police,-media-&-accountability-Sep-21-2026-restream.txtWe also challenge ourselves as creators. What happens when outrage performs better than nuance? What does media accountability actually look like? And if somebody publishes something wrong, is the answer punishment, or is the better answer more accurate information and a willingness to publicly correct the record? Patrick gives a particularly strong answer on free speech and a free press near the end of his appearance. can-you-trust-the-story_-_-patrick-carr-on-police,-media-&-accountability-Sep-21-2026-restream.txtThis one is less about picking a side and more about asking a better question:What evidence should you have before you decide who was right?Featuring: Patrick Carr, The Patrick Carr Show Lance Fisher, Thin Blue Lie Audits Zoel “Red Dog” Murphy Banning Sweatland Hosted by Erik LavigneExplicit: Yes There is frequent adult language throughout the episode.Suggested Buzzsprout chapters00:00 Intro and disclaimer 02:00 Can You Trust the Story? 05:00 Meet Patrick Carr 07:00 Lance Fisher and Thin Blue Lie Audits 13:00 Why Patrick built independent local media 27:00 Viral clips, incomplete information, and confirmation bias 42:00 What police departments get wrong in the first 24 hours 48:00 What traditional media gets wrong 50:00 What independent creators get wrong 57:00 Officer stress, workload, and supervision 1:04:00 The Milagros Ortiz case 1:14:00 Officer responsibility versus fleet responsibility 1:36:00 What matters most to the public? 1:48:00 Criminal vs. administrative vs. civil accountability 1:55:00 What does accountability actually mean? 1:56:00 Media accountability 1:59:00 Should media face consequences for getting stories wrong? 2:01:00 Patrick's closing thoughts 2:03:00 Patrick exits, conversation continues 2:06:00 Why police communication problems are often self-inflicted 2:18:00 Building community instead of chasing clicks 2:33:00 Final thoughts and guest plugs 2:37:00 Closesend us a message! twocopsonedonut@yahoo.comSupport the showPlease see our Youtube channel https://www.youtube.com/c/TwoCopsOneDonut Join our Discord!! https://discord.gg/BdjeTEAc *Send us a message! twocopsonedonut@yahoo.com

COLOMBO AND COMPANY 0:00 SEG 4 Justin Sparks - Former MO Rep. and Law Enforcement Specialist The president announced he was ready to launch missile strikes against Iran, but ultimately called them off due to internal pressure and the upcoming UN assembly. Critics, including Tony and Law Specialist Justin Spark, argue that this repeated pattern of backing down amounts to “crying wolf.” They warn that continually calling off strikes undermines U.S. credibility, puts national security at risk, and emboldens Iran to taunt the world’s strongest nation without fear of consequences. Tony and Justin analyze these developments and their broader implications. 21:52 SEG 5 continuing the conversation with Justin Sparks Justin and Tony examine Governor Abigail Spanberger’s discreet move to eliminate a policy that safeguarded girls’ sports by ensuring athletes competed according to their biological sex. 40:14 SEG 6 AOC emerges as a new ally for Macklemore, who is using the Pro Palestine situation to advance her own agenda.

A badge can start a conversation, but it can't end it. We spend this morning digging into two stories that look unrelated on the surface and land in the exact same place: authority without oversight always turns into a trust problem. First, we break down a report out of Bloomington, Illinois where an off-duty assistant police chief allegedly flashes his badge, follows two young men, and tries to steer responding officers toward cuffs, phone seizures, towing, and jail over a minor parking issue that escalates after he gets flipped off. We talk through why “contempt of cop” isn't a real charge, why rank is not probable cause, and where off-duty intervention should stop and on-duty accountability should begin.Then we zoom out to Huntsville, Texas and the debate over automated license plate readers (ALPR), including Flock cameras. I'm not anti-ALPR. I'm pro-controls, pro-audits, and pro-consequences when officers misuse powerful databases. The problem is simple: if a department says “we log every search and audit it every weekday,” what meaningful proof can the public see to verify those safeguards are real without exposing personal data or tipping off active investigations? We walk through the FOIA and public records angle, the cost arguments, and a practical middle ground built on redaction and aggregate reporting.We close by tying both stories to the same standard: good policing should benefit from someone asking, “Show me why.” If you want more conversations like this, subscribe, share the show, and leave a review.

Live from the Downtown Greenville Airport, Joey Hudson joins the show on a special mission for Law Enforcement Appreciation Day!

From Governor Henry McMaster's refusal to suspend South Carolina's gas tax despite a massive $1.8 billion surplus to the rapid surge of radical socialist policy across the nation, we expose the shocking developments unfolding in real time! Why are taxpayers paying the price while pork spending soars? Plus, we break down the alarming rise of the Democratic Socialists of America (DSA) taking over the Democratic Party—and what these foreign and domestic policy shifts mean for our rights, the midterms, and America's future!

This time I sit down with Zack Harrison, founder of Ascension Training and Consulting, and the conversation goes exactly where you'd hope: deep, honest, and unfiltered. Zack's name had been popping up for years across ranges and in conversations with law enforcement officers, always attached to the same kind of feedback. This guy cares. He slows down and makes sure you understand the why.Zack walks through the whole arc: growing up, the call of service after 9/11, navigating the 18 X-ray pipeline into Special Forces, deploying to Afghanistan in the early years of the war, and then making the gut-wrenching decision to step away after a decade in. The transition wasn't clean. There were real and unexpected challenges and no plan waiting on the other side. What came out of it was a training company built on the same principles that made him effective in uniform: know your curriculum cold, show up prepared, and never let a student leave without understanding the why behind everything.The back half of this episode is where it gets really good. We dig into the real friction points in law enforcement training culture: the failure to share lessons learned across agencies, the emotional attachment to tactics that blocks honest evaluation, the cop out of 'we can't do what you guys did,' and the uncomfortable truth that commitment, not resources, is often the actual limiting factor. We talk about what separates the people that elevate themselves with from the ones who stay exactly the same year after year, and why piecemealing instructors works for shooting but absolutely does not work for tactics.This is one of those Iron Sights conversations that earns a second listen. Whether you are in law enforcement, transitioning out of the military, or just trying to understand what serious training culture actually looks like, Zack Harrison is exactly the kind of practitioner this show exists to put in front of you.In this episode:• The 18 X-ray pipeline explained.• Why Ascension's curriculum starts with a diagnostic on day one.• The cop out of 'we can't do what you guys did': Zack argues this is usually a protection mechanism for an underlying skills gap, not a genuine policy concern.• One battle drill, not two speeds: Ascension training philosophy and methodology.• Why piecemealing tactics instructors backfires: Zack contrasts a team he has worked with for five years against teams that swap companies every time leadership changes, and explains why continuity of instruction builds SOP integrity that a rotating cast of trainers cannot• Commitment as the real variable: the officers who are genuinely capable all made personal sacrifices of time and money beyond what their agency provided.• Teaching people how to teach is the missing investment: both agree that a fraction of the budget spent on ammo or equipment, redirected toward instructor development, would produce compounding returns across an entire department's capability• Standards are what make trust possible: shooting standards, PT standards, and tactical standards give teams an objective frame to evaluate themselves honestly rather than defending the baby when it's uglyChapters:0:01 Intro: The Capable Standard teaser2:25 Episode opens: introducing Zack Harrison3:02 How Scott and Zack connected at TTPOA10:40 Ascension Training and Consulting: what they do15:22 Zack's background: Richmond to the 18 X-ray program21:12 Breaking down the 18 X-ray pipeline28:49 Transition out of the Army: the hard truth44:12 Military vs. law enforcement: the 'you can't do what we did' myth57:50 One battle drill: why Ascension teaches one aggressive standard1:13:13 Five years with one team: the case against piecemealing1:30:25 Academy training culture and changing the system from within2:01:40 Ascension's future: West Coast, Texas, and what's nextMentioned:Zack Harrison — Owner and founder of Ascension Training and Consulting, former 18B Green Beret and SMU operator, and the primary guest of this episode.Matt Pranka — Was on the live TTPOA podcast with Scott Howell and fielded questions from the audience alongside Brandon Hernandez.Brandon Hernandez — TTPOA figure who Zack Harrison recognized from the live podcast recording at the TTPOA conference.Kim Pastore — Referenced as 'Kim Pastore from the Jorge Pastore Foundation,' credited alongside TTPOA for the hard work of making the TTPOA conference event happen.Tom Spooner — Described by Zack Harrison as a friend whose quote about drinking reflected Zack's own experience; Tom was also involved in training that helped Zack transition into the private-sector training world.Kyle Lamb — Described by Zack Harrison as 'the godfather of this whole industry,' credited as a pioneer in both gear and firearms training.

Lewis Rice spent 26 years inside the DEA, working undercover cases and helping take down some of the biggest drug traffickers in America in the 1970's, 80's & 90's. After earning his Criminal Justice degree from St. John's University, he joined the DEA and went on to coordinate major international investigations targeting violent cartels in Miami — cases that seized millions of dollars in cash and thousands of kilos of cocaine and heroin. He worked directly with infamous Harlem drug kingpin Frank Lucas after Lucas became a government cooperator, using his information to help convict major traffickers. Rice eventually rose through DEA leadership positions in Washington, D.C., Philadelphia, Detroit, and New York before becoming Special Agent in Charge of the DEA's flagship New York office — making him the youngest SAC in the entire agency at the time. After 26 years on the front lines of America's war on drugs, he retired in 2001. _____________________________________________  #miami #truecrimestories #cops #mafia #newyork _____________________________________________ Thank you to CASH APP for sponsoring this episode: Download Cash App Today: https://click.cash.app/ui6m/6pao71et #CashAppPod Cash App is a financial services platform, not a bank.

Anat Admati, professor of finance and economics at Stanford University, joins the Business Scholarship Podcast to discuss her paper Profitable Misconduct, Corporate Governance, and Law Enforcement. The paper is co-authored with Nathan Atkinson of the University of Wisconsin Law School and Paul Pfleiderer, also of Stanford. This episode is hosted by Andrew Jennings, associate professor of law at Emory University, and was edited by Tanya Eathakotti, a law student at Emory University.

It's sad for the families and community, and frustrating for the investigators, but our local "cold cases" are never completely forgotten or ignored.

What is life really like behind the badge?Author and former law enforcement officer Andrew Kincaid joins Ric Bratton on This Week in America to discuss his book My Life as a Reserve Deputy: If the Badge Could Talk, a firsthand account drawn from 21 years of service with the San Diego County Sheriff's Department.Kincaid dreamed of working in law enforcement from an early age and went on to experience a remarkable range of assignments—from patrol and off-road enforcement to commuter-train patrol and work as a rangemaster in the weapons training unit.Along the way came unpredictable calls, dangerous situations, humorous moments, tragedy, friendships and unforgettable experiences—including rescue efforts during a major California wildfire.Andrew shares some of those stories with Ric and discusses what they taught him about law enforcement, public service and the men and women who choose to protect their communities.If you've ever wondered what happens beyond the uniform and the patrol car, this conversation offers a firsthand look from someone who spent more than two decades living it.This Week in America with Ric Bratton is a nationally syndicated radio show and podcast featuring conversations with authors, experts, innovators and newsmakers from around the world. Hosted by veteran broadcaster Ric Bratton, the program is distributed across more than 100 radio stations and 28 podcast platforms, with additional exposure through YouTube and social media.Listen to This Week in America for insightful interviews with authors and experts covering books, health, wellness, personal development, current issues, business, lifestyle and the stories shaping our lives.Andrew Kincaid, author of My Life as a Reserve Deputy, coming up on This Week in America.AMAZONttps://www.kingpagespress.com#LawEnforcement #AndrewKincaid #ThisWeekInAmericaYOUTUBE TAGSAndrew Kincaid, My Life as a Reserve Deputy, If the Badge Could Talk, law enforcement, police memoir, reserve deputy, reserve deputy sheriff, San Diego County Sheriff, police stories, law enforcement stories, behind the badge, police officer experiences, first responder stories, public safety, California law enforcement, police career, law enforcement career, Ric Bratton, This Week in America, TWIAKeywords: Andrew Kincaid, My Life as a Reserve Deputy, If the Badge Could Talk, law enforcement memoir, reserve deputy, reserve sheriff deputy, police stories, San Diego County Sheriff, California law enforcement, police career, behind the badge, first responders, public safety, law enforcement experiences, police officer memoir, Ric Bratton, This Week in America

Send us Fan MailYou may have noticed, while driving down a street or highway, the proliferation of cameras on traffic lights and other structures.  Some of these cameras are recording your vehicle license plates and other features.  And in some instances, this data is being stored and made available both to government agencies and private parties.  For law enforcement, the aggregation of this data can be an incredibly powerful investigative tool, helping investigators to catalog a vehicle's—and therefore its driver's—historical patterns of movements and locations, as well as its likely future patterns.  But that power is exactly what concerns privacy rights activists like Chad Marlow, Senior Policy Counsel at the American Civil Liberties Union in New York, and Michael B. Soyfer, an Attorney at the Institute for Justice in Arlington, Virginia.  We caught up with them to discuss the implications of this powerful technology.

Artificial intelligence is changing policing fast—but what happens when AI identifies the wrong suspect, creates false evidence, or sends detectives in the wrong direction? Retired NYPD Sergeant Bill Cannon breaks down the real dangers of facial recognition, deepfakes, AI-generated reports, surveillance, and overreliance on algorithms in criminal investigations. Police Off the Cuff examines where AI can help law enforcement, where it can destroy a case, and why human judgment still has to make the final call. Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

In this episode, Craig Jeffery and Ryan Castle of Conduit Security examine how sophisticated wire fraud schemes exploit legitimate payment processes. Drawing on real-world cases and Ryan's former FBI experience, they discuss compromised email accounts, altered payment instructions, deepfakes, money mules, and the pressure criminals use to bypass otherwise sound controls.

One of the big problems confronting law enforcement departments in these politically charged times is the simple failure to communicate. And one of the main sources of this problem according to former Chapel Chief of Police Chris Blue is that law enforcement agencies often aren't doing enough to affirmatively earn the trust of the communities they serve. As Blue wrote in a recent guest essay for NC Newsline, law enforcement leaders have a responsibility to stand up for the principles that underpin the rule of law — fairness, accountability, equal treatment and respect for constitutional rights – as well as to actively participate in public conversations about law enforcement and public safety, even when it's difficult to do so. To advance this cause, Blue recently helped launch a new nonprofit called the North Carolina Law Enforcement Trust & Legitimacy Project and recently he sat down with Newsline to share some details. Listen to the full interview with Chris Blue with the North Carolina Law Enforcement Trust & Legitimacy Project.

Police officers get arrested, fired, and sent to prison. So why do so many people still believe cops get a pass?In this live episode of Two Cops One Donut, Erik Lavigne examines both sides of the police accountability debate with real cases and questions from the audience. We discuss outcomes that fuel public frustration, cases that resulted in substantial prison sentences, and why punishment alone may not restore trust.Erik also makes his case for doubling sentences for criminally convicted officers. If law enforcement claims a higher standard, what should that mean when an officer violates the public's trust?The conversation covers qualified immunity, sentencing disparities, courtroom transparency, police database misuse, leadership failures, and protecting officers who report misconduct. The goal is to challenge assumptions, understand legitimate criticism, and ask what fair, consistent accountability should actually look like.Chapters:• 00:00:00 Introduction: Do cops get a pass?• 00:03:23 The upcoming TCOD app and training tools• 00:15:30 Defining accountability: Arrests, convictions, and consequences• 00:22:12 Courtroom transparency and accountability for judges and prosecutors• 00:30:34 Should cops face double the punishment?• 00:39:29 Qualified immunity, settlements, and criminal liability• 00:50:15 Daniel Shaver: An outcome that fuels public distrust• 00:57:56 Laquan McDonald: Examining sentencing disparities• 01:04:12 Walter Scott: What meaningful punishment looks like• 01:16:52 Mississippi's Goon Squad: Prison sentences and leadership failures• 01:27:34 Patrick Hemingway: Police database misuse and auditing• 01:35:48 Brett Hankison: Conviction, sentencing, and release pending appeal• 01:40:27 What officer arrest data can and cannot tell us• 01:43:35 Better accountability: Transparency, oversight, and whistleblower protection• 01:50:36 Final audience questions and closing thoughtsWhat would meaningful police accountability look like in your community?

A cop deliberately goes head-on with a wrong-way driver on the highway. Was he protecting other drivers or taking an unnecessary risk?I called this officer a hero. In this episode, I explain why, address the strongest criticism of his decision, and consider what realistic alternatives he had in that moment.These intentionally shorter Two Cops One Donut episodes are designed to run 8–15 minutes and focus on one incident, one question, or one talking point. Each is a focused conversation you can finish in a short sitting, with a clear argument and room to consider another perspective. They're an addition to our longer interviews and panel discussions.The goal stays the same: recognize good police work, challenge bad decisions, and bridge the gap between law enforcement and the communities we serve.Listen, decide where you stand, and bring your strongest argument.Hosted by Erik Lavigne.send us a message! twocopsonedonut@yahoo.comSupport the showPlease see our Youtube channel https://www.youtube.com/c/TwoCopsOneDonut Join our Discord!! https://discord.gg/BdjeTEAc *Send us a message! twocopsonedonut@yahoo.com

In a 2018 TED Talk, Yuval Harari argued that democracy prevailed over fascism and communism in the 20th century not because of any inherent advantage, but because the technology of that age favored open and democratic societies. It was simply too difficult and too costly to centralize power using pre-digital technology.But, Yuval warned, with the rise of AI, the calculus might flip: it might actually become far more efficient to run highly centralized authoritarian governments.Eight years later, we're starting to see what Yuval was warning about. Right now, police across all levels of government, from small-town sheriffs to massive federal agencies, are adopting AI at a staggering rate and using it to build the kind of efficient, centralized surveillance-state apparatus that Yuval warned about.Take, for example, the recent deployment of hundreds of thousands of automated license plate readers (ALPRs) across the country by companies like Flock and Axon. These cameras have made headlines in recent weeks, but as you'll hear in this episode, they are just the most visible frontier of an AI-powered digital dragnet that gives police the ability to analyze extraordinary amounts of data about private citizens.Today on the show, Tristan speaks with two experts on how police are using AI technology today, what we can expect in the near future, and what protections we need to create now before it's too late. Andrew Guthrie Ferguson is a law professor at George Washington University who studies how policing technology collides with constitutional law. He's the author of Your Data Will Be Used Against You: Policing in the Age of Self-Surveillance.Garance Burke is an investigative journalist at The Associated Press, where she leads high-impact projects on the intersection of technology and society. Her investigations into the global surveillance industry were part of a package that won the 2026 Pulitzer Prize for International Reporting.

With Petra MolnarAmerica and China Are Racing to Different AI FuturesLaughing at Power: A Troublemaker's Guide to Changing TechCorrectionsAndrew said that real-time crime centers are in 300 cities across the US, which matches the findings of the National Real Time Crime Center Association; however, this figure is disputed, with the Electronic Frontier Foundation putting it at 150.Andrew incorrectly described the resolution of the case of a man misidentified by AI in New Orleans. He said the man was acquitted, but in fact the charges were dropped. ClarificationsAs noted in the episode, Andrew's discussion of agentic AI was a theoretical account of a tool that police may use in the future, not something actively used on the ground today.Garance referred to the protests in Ferguson as the impetus for police-worn body cameras. Body cameras were being piloted in the US and UK prior to Ferguson, but federal grants in the wake of the protests made them much more common. Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

Patrick Clancy buried three children. He testified in the trial that followed their deaths. He divorced Lindsay, remarried, and tried to build a new life in New York. Lindsay admitted through her defense that she killed Cora, Dawson, and Callan. The jury deadlocked eleven to one and Judge Sullivan declared a mistrial on September 4.The conspiracy theories started during the trial. TikTok and Instagram creators accused Patrick of being the real killer. Some used astrology and birth charts. Others analyzed trial livestream footage frame by frame. Creators compared him to Chris Watts. Tabloids ran paparazzi photos of Patrick and his new wife under headlines designed to make grief look suspicious.On September 8, Patrick's attorney Howard Cooper released a statement through publicist Diana Pisciotta calling the accusations a defamation campaign and confirming law enforcement has been notified. Cooper said the conspiracy has produced threats to Patrick's reputation, livelihood, and life.Lindsay's own defense attorney Kevin Reddington, asked about the theories after the mistrial, praised the internet investigators' ability to "ferret out facts."Psychotherapist Shavaun Scott examines how a father became a suspect in the court of TikTok, what makes a conspiracy feel more real than a courtroom admission, and what Patrick's forced response reveals about where true crime fandom has landed.Listen Anywhere You Get Podcasts: https://pod.link/1655749292Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

"The best in people always shines through, even during the darkest times." — Annette MullinThere's the version of a crisis you see on the news, and then there's the version lived by the people who show up for it — the officers, the first responders, the moms trying to keep their own kids steady while everything around them feels unsteady. Annette Mullin lived both.Annette spent 24 years as a Las Vegas police officer — patrol, homicide, internal affairs, and nine years as a crisis negotiator. In this episode, she shares what it was like being an officer during the mass shooting on the Strip, becoming the first woman ever put in a supervisor role in her department's homicide unit, and the humbling first hostage case that taught her everything she now teaches as an instructor with the Black Swan Group. This is a real life story about resilience, service, and what it actually means to make someone feel heard.If you've ever had to hold steady for everyone else while quietly falling apart yourself, this conversation is for you.

Send us Fan MailThe hardest part of first responder mental health is not admitting trauma exists, it is admitting it counts when it happens to you. In part 2 of the interview, Steve Bisson sits down with Dana DeLorenzo to talk about the pressure points that quietly push police officers, dispatchers, and other first responders toward PTSD, burnout, and early retirement, especially when the culture still rewards silence. We get specific about what women in law enforcement deal with that often gets minimized: microaggressions, sexualized comments, assumptions about competence or sexuality, and the exhausting expectation to “prove yourself” while staying unbothered. Dana shares how those daily stressors combine with operational trauma and how the “good old boys club” can turn support into scrutiny, making it harder to report problems or ask for help early. From there, we zoom out to systems that shape wellness, including dispatch and the tradeoffs of regionalization. We talk about why local knowledge matters, why “How are you?” has to be a real question, and how leaders can prevent crisis by normalizing confidential care, vetted clinicians, and routine wellness visits. We also confront a fear many don't say out loud: if getting help means losing your gun, your overtime, or your livelihood, people will wait until they're in real danger. To Reach Dana, go to her LinkedIn account at this address: https://www.linkedin.com/in/dana-delorenzo-84916a379?utm_source=share_via&utm_content=profile&utm_medium=member_androidYou can email her at: mailto:ddelorenzo@firstrespondersix.comIf you care about police mental health, first responder wellness, suicide prevention, and building a healthier culture from the inside, this one is for you.

Laquan Rouse grew up in New Jersey associating with gang members without ever joining, was a star athlete who had every reason to believe sports would define his future — until he got shot three times his senior year of high school and had to decide who he was actually going to become. He straightened his life out and became a New Jersey correctional officer, spending three years working the floor inside Trenton State Prison and other New Jersey facilities where he earned respect from inmates, witnessed corrupt guards, and accumulated funny stories and hard truths. Then he walked away voluntarily — and is now sharing why. _____________________________________________ #CorrectionalOfficer #PrisonGuard #PrisonStories #TrueCrime #NewJersey _____________________________________________ Thank you to FACTOR for sponsoring this episode: Head to https://factormeals.com/lockedin50off and use code lockedin50off to get 50 percent off and 1 free breakfast item per box for 1 year, while supplies last until 10/31/2026. _____________________________________________ Hosted, Executive Produced & Edited By Ian Bick: https://www.instagram.com/ian_bick/?hl=en https://ianbick.com/ _____________________________________________ Timestamps: 00:00 Crazy Smuggling Story 00:14 Meet Laquan Roose 00:37 Growing Up in Jersey City 01:13 Family and Upbringing 02:00 Only One in Law Enforcement 02:35 Views on Cops as a Kid 03:04 High School Troubles 04:36 Switching Schools 05:01 Family in Education 05:26 Why Getting Into Trouble? 06:00 Dad's Work Ethic 07:19 Struggle vs. Discipline 08:00 Getting Shot 08:51 Gang or Personal Beef? 10:49 Out at 2 AM 12:18 The Shooting Details 14:30 Hospital and Family 15:27 The Pursuit Continues 16:36 Getting Help 17:33 Wanting Revenge 19:45 Cops Investigate 20:17 Leaving the Hospital 22:03 No Retaliation 23:33 Parents Want Cooperation 24:18 Back to School and Football 27:46 Normal for the City? 28:50 Block Culture 29:18 Family Gang Involvement 29:48 Avoiding Gangs 31:03 Junior College 31:57 Impact of Environment 32:14 Protecting Younger Brother 34:01 Fixing the Community 35:13 Sponsor: Factor 36:52 After Junior College 37:27 Getting into Corrections 39:05 The Pay 39:38 Family Reaction 40:52 The Academy 42:14 Training Scenarios 44:04 Fighting Training 44:19 Dropout Rate 44:48 First Prison Experience 46:00 Super Cops 46:47 Street Guys Turned COs 47:08 Being a Chill Cop 47:25 Trenton State Prison 48:28 First Witnessed Events 49:24 Keeping Things Under Wraps 50:21 Nothing to Lose 52:55 Earning Respect 55:50 Transfer to Rahway 56:11 Past Follows You 56:55 Friend Serving 75 Years 58:39 How Other Officers Treated Him 01:00:13 Corruption Among Officers 01:01:21 Fetty Wap Situation 01:03:41 Young Officers and Old Heads 01:04:07 Respected Inmate: Snowball 01:05:52 Handling Snitches 01:08:00 Craziest Check-In 01:10:58 K2 and Its Effects 01:15:41 Cell Searches 01:17:07 Strangest Things in Cells 01:19:35 Cell Phones in Prison 01:20:42 Food and Contraband 01:23:48 Officer Downtime 01:25:36 Cell Assignments 01:26:34 Shift Differences 01:27:36 Control Over Inmates 01:29:08 Sex Offenders 01:31:19 Worst Part of the Job 01:32:30 Squat and Cough 01:33:51 Female Officers Hookups 01:35:11 Max B Encounter 01:35:21 Expecting a Long Career 01:35:48 Why He Left 01:42:48 Life After Resigning 01:43:43 What He Does Now 01:44:42 Misconceptions About Prisons 01:46:04 Why Experience Both Worlds? 01:48:00 Final Thoughts _____________________________________________ To advertise on the show, contact sales@advertisecast.com or visit https://advertising.libsyn.com/LockedInWithIanBicka  

From street takeover crackdowns in South Carolina to shocking local policy shifts!

Michigan’s 2026 elections could reshape who controls two of the most powerful offices in the state. Tudor Dixon sits down with Republican Attorney General candidate Doug Lloyd and Secretary of State candidate Anthony Forlini to discuss their campaigns, election integrity, public safety and their argument that government has become increasingly weaponized against the people. Lloyd takes aim at Attorney General Dana Nessel’s record and explains how he says he would refocus the Michigan Attorney General’s office on fighting crime, supporting law enforcement, protecting victims and holding government accountable. Forlini discusses his campaign for Michigan Secretary of State, his experience overseeing elections as Macomb County Clerk and his push for greater election transparency. The conversation also examines the battle over the Citizens Only Voting ballot initiative and the controversy surrounding hundreds of thousands of petition signatures submitted to put the proposal before Michigan voters. Tudor, Lloyd and Forlini also discuss Gretchen Whitmer, Jocelyn Benson, Garland Gilchrist, crime and public safety, government overreach, small businesses, election administration and why the Attorney General and Secretary of State races could have consequences far beyond Michigan. Can Republicans restore what Lloyd and Forlini describe as “law and order” and accountability in state government? Tudor gets their case directly from the candidates.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Officer Wayne James studied criminal justice and psychology in college, always knew he wanted to work in law enforcement, and has spent four years as a correction officer at Nassau County Correctional Center — building a firsthand understanding of prison politics, inmate behavior, and the specific daily reality of what life inside a county correctional facility actually looks like from the officer managing it. In this episode of Locked In with Ian Bick, he shares what his upbringing gave him that protected him from going down the wrong path, what working inside Nassau County Jail really looks like, what prison politics and the culture behind slashings actually involve, what the difference between working with male and female inmates actually requires of an officer, and what building genuine respect from inmates actually looks like from the person who has to do it every single shift. _____________________________________________ #correctionalofficers #nassaucounty #truecrimestories #prisonguard _____________________________________________ Connect with Wayne James: Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/officer_waynejames/ Buy his Book: https://www.amazon.com/Power-Perception-Wayne-Daion-James/dp/B0H2X48VBT?tag=smgglusdsadts-20&ref=&adgrpid=195855865845&hvpone=&hvptwo=&hvadid=812900394363&hvpos=&hvnetw=g&hvrand=2786760930931149643&hvqmt=a&hvdev=c&hvdvcmdl=&hvlocint=&hvlocphy=9016137&hvtargid=kwl-2484167636399&hvext=373771806062&hvcampaign=23946688003&hydadcr=17332_13842016_2502554&mcid=&hvocijid=2786760930931149643--&hvexpln=0&language=en_US _____________________________________________ Hosted, Executive Produced & Edited By Ian Bick: https://www.instagram.com/ian_bick/?hl=en https://ianbick.com/ _____________________________________________ Timestamps: 00:00 Introduction to Officer Wayne James 00:33 Growing Up in a Two-Parent Household 01:47 Martial Arts and Discipline 02:17 The Importance of Structure 02:58 Early Dream of Law Enforcement 04:07 Degrees in Sociology and Pre-Law 05:48 Applying Education on the Job 07:14 Balancing Professional Distance and Respect 08:38 Sharing Personal Background with Inmates 10:32 The No-Snitching Trap 13:02 Defining Snitching vs. Self-Preservation 14:56 The Cost of Not Taking a Deal 15:56 Discovering Snitches in Jail 16:29 Path to Corrections 17:24 Starting at Age 28 18:52 Nassau County Correctional Facility Overview 20:55 One Person Per Cell Policy 21:00 Safety Benefits of Single Cells 23:26 Countering the Buddy System Argument 25:16 Classification Issues in Prisons 27:21 Building More Prisons vs. Reform 28:29 Open Dorms and Gladiator School 29:51 The Culture of Slashing 31:05 Prison Politics and Rules 33:31 Psychology of Claiming Phones 34:18 Why Not More Phones? 36:34 Awaiting Trial and Conviction Rates 37:31 Court Accuracy in Bail Decisions 38:56 Genuinely Bad People 39:59 Encounter with an MS-13 Leader 41:21 Interacting with Violent Offenders 42:24 Fear and Self-Defense 43:52 Officers Killed by Inmates 45:07 Power Trips and Bad Officers 47:44 Female Officers Supervising Males 50:55 Female Inmate Charges and Behavior 52:00 Evil in Women vs. Men 53:39 Wrongful Convictions and Evil Acts 54:13 Central Park Five and Prison Trauma 55:29 Shower Safety and Surveillance 56:33 Need for Standardized Prison Operations 58:03 Overtime and Officer Safety 59:04 Why Not Hire More Staff? 59:55 Pay and Overtime Addiction 01:01:19 Consequences of Refusing Overtime 01:01:44 Notable Inmates: Nicki Minaj's Brother and Fentanyl King 01:03:43 Respectful Dangerous Inmates 01:05:11 Sharing Meals with Inmates 01:07:12 Chess and Double Homicide 01:08:31 Everyone Is One Accusation Away 01:10:45 Talented Inmates and Narrow Minds 01:13:30 Learned Helplessness and the Doll Test 01:15:45 Historical Oppression and Inferiority 01:16:50 Parenting as the Root Solution 01:18:12 Challenges of Single Parenting 01:20:15 Leaving Corrections for Policing 01:21:47 Inmate vs. Incarcerated Individual 01:24:29 Parenting as the Overall Solution 01:25:59 Should Police Work Corrections First? 01:27:43 Final Thoughts and Book Promotion _____________________________________________ To advertise on the show, contact sales@advertisecast.com or visit https://advertising.libsyn.com/LockedInWithIanBicka

Ronald Reagan. Champion of neoliberalism. To some, the man who lifted the spirits of a nation and restored a sense of pride and optimism after a period of despair. To others, the Reagan years marked the death of liberalism. A dark turn toward unfettered capitalist exploitation and the decapitation of working class movements and civil rights. So, which is it? Was Ronald Reagan responsible for ushering in an era of prosperity and restoring national pride as his boosters maintain? Or was he indeed the harbinger of doom and the reason we have Donald Trump today? Like most things, it’s complicated. But there are three ways in which Reagan fundamentally altered the trajectory of the United States to the detriment of most American families. Max walks through each of them before offering a bit of context for the era and ends with an example of a modern political figure that borrows from Reagan’s political playbook but with a twist: this time it’s to do good in the world.

Legendary Dolly Parton is gone. She died Tuesday at Vanderbilt-Ingram Cancer Center in Nashville, surrounded by loved ones, four days after she was admitted. The type of cancer was not disclosed. Team Dolly said she spent her life putting joy, laughter, hope, and integrity into everything she touched and that her generosity reached people she would never meet. She donated hundreds of millions of books through the Imagination Library. A girl from a two-room cabin in the Smokies who wrote "Jolene" and "9 to 5," and she still wanted to be remembered as the book lady. Pat and the crew take the news the way a lot of regular Americans are taking it: not as another celebrity recap, but as the loss of someone who felt like she belonged to the whole country. The quiet health fight. The nephew who had been asked years ago to record the goodbye. Flags at half-staff. And the part that landed hardest — she kept working, kept joking, and kept mailing books to other people's children until the end. Pat also covered: Day 74: Mitch McConnell still holding America hostage WNBA team Chicago Sky ban Enes Freedom from home games Trump wants Lake Ontario renamed “Lake America” after the Canada trade fight went nuclear Iran puts a $10 million bounty on Barron Trump Trump throws more gas on Ilhan Omar marrying her brother Did Dolly Parton represent something America doesn't make anymore?
