I had the incredible good fortune of getting to know Rob Reiner in recent years. I even had the wonderful - and somewhat surreal - experience of appearing on stage with Rob in Los Angeles. The first part of this podcast is dedicated to my remembrance of Rob. The second part takes on the insanely indecent and offensive, not to mention false, attacks Trump made against Rob and Michele Reiner shortly after they were murdered. Trump's unfitness for office is as clear as it is necessary for the health and well being of the body politic, and American people, and the continued viability of our democracy.

David Shedd outlines strategies to counter Chinese espionage, advocating for "partial decoupling" to protect critical technologies like semiconductors and AI.

President Trump addresses the nation to discuss the rapid growth of our economy and announces a $1,776 bonus for all one million military members, funded by tariffs. New polling suggests a plurality of voters would like even LEGAL immigration to completely stop or slow down considerably, as Trump explains the new jobs in the latest report all went to American workers. A monster price drop in popular prescription drugs is coming to your local pharmacy. Trump hints that his administration has a plan to tackle the housing availability and affordability crisis next.

In this episode, Brett Winton and Lorenzo sit down with Carlos Domingo, CEO and co-founder of Securitize, to explore how blockchain infrastructure is transforming capital markets. As a pioneer in the tokenization space, Carlos unpacks what it means to issue native securities—like stocks, bonds, and credit funds—on chain and why the modernization of legacy financial systems is long overdue. Carlos details Securitize's role as a registered transfer agent and broker-dealer, their regulatory journey with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), and why native tokenization (not synthetic derivatives) is essential for future growth. They discuss the promise of 24/7 trading, peer-to-peer transfers, composability with decentralized finance (DeFi) protocols, and the global democratization of financial access—especially in markets underserved by traditional systems. The episode also dives into the tension between blockchain-native systems and financial incumbents, the logic behind Securitize's decision to go public via a special purpose acquisition company (SPAC), and the asset classes best suited for tokenization—from treasuries to public equities and beyond.Key Points From This Episode:(00:00:00) Why capital markets need a blockchain-based ledger upgrade(00:05:46) How tokenization improves global accessibility and financial user experience(00:07:35) Real-world examples: Tokenized treasury and credit funds(00:10:29) Understanding how ownership works: DTCC, transfer agents, and blockchain(00:17:08) Global appetite for tokenized stocks, following stablecoin adoption(00:18:24) Tokenizing private equity and venture capital for broader access(00:25:34) How Securitize tokenizes assets the right way—with issuer involvement(00:28:55) Regulatory clarity accelerates tokenization adoption(00:30:08) Open blockchain infrastructure unlocks composability and innovation(00:35:50) Where Securitize fits in the capital markets stack(00:37:13) Projecting tokenized assets: From $4.6B to $200B assets under management (AUM)(00:39:46) Why Securitize stays blockchain-agnostic despite protocol growth

Jesse Butler pleaded no contest to ten rape-related charges, got youthful offender status, and walked out of court with probation and community service. No prison. No sex offender registry. And if he makes it to his 19th birthday in August without incident, his record gets sealed forever. But the case isn't over. Attorney Rachel Bussett just filed a motion that could change everything. In this breakdown, we examine every legal avenue that could still put Butler behind bars. The Marsy's Law challenge arguing victims' constitutional rights were violated when the plea deal was struck minutes before the hearing. The untested statutory argument that "reverse certification" from adult to youthful offender may not even be legal in Oklahoma rape cases. The probation violation path—Butler has already missed two check-ins. The federal grand jury investigation being pushed by State Rep. JJ Humphrey. And the possibility that new victims could come forward with fresh charges. We also look at the research that makes this a public safety issue. Studies show victims of intimate partner strangulation are 750 percent more likely to be killed by that same partner. Court documents describe one victim as being 30 seconds from death. Police found video evidence of Butler strangling her unconscious—because according to affidavits, he wanted to watch it later. The DA defends the deal. The families say they were blindsided. Bussett says the system failed from beginning to end. The February 3rd hearing could reopen everything—or nothing changes and the clock runs out. This is about more than one case. It's about whether victim's rights actually mean anything, and whether the justice system protects survivors or shields the connected. #JesseButler #MarsysLaw #StillwaterOklahoma #VictimsRights #YouthfulOffender #TrueCrime #PayneCounty #CriminalJustice #RachelBussett #JusticeForSurvivors Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

What happens when two female lawyers from different countries realize they're fighting the same battles? In this powerful conversation, Erin sits down with Odette Ansell—a Canadian litigator and host of the Non-Billable Hours podcast—to talk about the universal struggles female lawyers face: loneliness, identity crisis, the pressure to "have it all," and the desperate need for community. They discuss why it's so hard to separate your identity from your job, what to do when you feel stuck, and why vulnerability might be the bravest thing you do as a lawyer. If you've ever felt like you're the only one crumbling while everyone else looks like they're crushing it—this episode is your reminder that you're not alone.About Odette AnsellOdette Ansell is a Canadian litigator and the host of Non-Billable Hours, a podcast dedicated to honest conversations about life in and beyond the law.

No one can ever accuse FBI Director Kash Patel of learning from his mistakes. He got it wrong during the Charlie Kirk shooting investigation when he announced that the shooter was in custody, only to have to backtrack later when it was learned that the FBI had the wrong guy.And now Kash has gone and done it again. He just made the exact same mistake by announcing that the FBI had apprehended the suspect in the Brown University shooting, and yet again, it turns out the FBI had the wrong guy.Glenn discusses the many problems attendant to Kash Patel getting it wrong in such a public way. He explains how this kind of blunder will actually provide the real shooter with what's called a third-party perpetrator defense at trial.Find Glenn on Substack: glennkirschner/substack.comSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Michael Fosler was out on a $50,000 bond. He had 43 felony charges hanging over him — assault of a minor, grooming, exploitation material. A no-contact order was in place. The system knew exactly who he was and what he was capable of. And just after 1 a.m. on October 8th, 2024, Aaron Spencer's 13-year-old daughter was in Fosler's truck, being taken toward Fosler's house in the middle of the night. This wasn't a hypothetical threat. This wasn't a father acting on old anger. This was a kidnapping in progress — by the same man who had already violated his child once and was facing decades in prison if she testified against him. Spencer's daughter was the primary witness. Fosler had every reason to want her gone. Spencer pursued Fosler for 20 minutes. Prosecutors say he should have called 911. But Spencer says he was driving at high speed on dark roads trying not to lose sight of the truck carrying his daughter. When he finally forced Fosler off the road, his daughter tried to escape. Fosler allegedly grabbed her. Then Fosler allegedly came at Spencer. That's when Spencer used force. Arkansas law is clear — you are allowed to use deadly force to protect another person from imminent serious harm. Spencer wasn't hunting anyone. He was responding to an active crisis involving his own child and a known predator who had already demonstrated what he was willing to do. Legal experts say this isn't about jury nullification. The defense doesn't need a sympathetic jury to ignore the law. Arkansas law itself provides a path to acquittal. The question is whether Spencer's actions fit the legal definition of justified defense of another — and everything about this case says they do. #AaronSpencer #DefenseOfOthers #ArkansasLaw #ProtectYourFamily #JustifiedForce #MichaelFosler #FatherProtectsChild #LegalDefense #TrueCrime #HiddenKillers Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Tara dives into Susie Wiles' controversial Vanity Fair interviews, exposing how her actions could undermine Trump allies, protect the deep state, and influence upcoming elections. From JD Vance to Trump's legal battles, she orchestrated a strategic media assault. Plus, a deep look at Trump's enforcement of oil sanctions on Venezuela and Iran, cutting off Democrat funding for street protests and defending American soil.

Tara starts by unpacking Susie Wiles' year-long series of eleven interviews with Vanity Fair. What seemed like routine press quickly reveals itself as a pattern of calculated political damage, especially to Trump's legal positions against Comey, Letitia James, and the broader deep state. The discussion explores: How Wiles' commentary could be used in court

A political firestorm erupts as explosive revelations from a Vanity Fair interview shake the Trump world. In this episode, Tara breaks down why the Susie Wiles interview wasn't an accident — but a calculated strike against Donald Trump, the MAGA movement, and even the future of JD Vance. From insider betrayal to media manipulation and legal fallout, this conversation pulls no punches. ⚠️

As we approach the New Year, it's almost inevitable that we'll find ourselves taking stock of all that came and went in the year prior. For most of us, this happens because we are trying to pinpoint those things we hope to improve on over the next 12 months. But as my guest and I discuss in today's episode, when it comes to leadership, these sorts of ‘self-audits' tend to focus inward, when sometimes we need to take stock of the people and peers we choose to surround ourselves with.Joining me this week is John R. Miles, CEO and founder of Passion Struck, an organization focused on impacting real change by educating people on how to live intentionally. A  former U.S. Navy officer, Fortune 50 executive, and global thought leader, John's core philosophy is that when people matter, they thrive. When organizations make people matter, everything else follows.John is now the executive producer and host of the Passion Struck podcast, ranked in the top 0.01% of all podcasts globally, and his latest book, "Passion Struck: Twelve Powerful Principles to Unlock Your Purpose and Ignite Your Most Intentional Life." was named a Next Big Idea Club Must-Read. As a man of many talents, John shares the leadership lessons he's seen that transcend any one institution, how situational leadership is about adjusting style, not principles, and the dangers of defining ourselves solely on the circumstances we find ourselves in. Enjoy the show!

As organizations race to adopt AI, many discover an uncomfortable truth: ambition often outpaces readiness. In this episode of the ITSPmagazine Brand Story Podcast, host Sean Martin speaks with Julian Hamood, Founder and Chief Visionary Officer at TrustedTech, about what it really takes to operationalize AI without amplifying risk, chaos, or misinformation.Julian shares that most organizations are eager to activate tools like AI agents and copilots, yet few have addressed the underlying condition of their environments. Unstructured data sprawl, fragmented cloud architectures, and legacy systems create blind spots that AI does not fix. Instead, AI accelerates whatever already exists, good or bad.A central theme of the conversation is readiness. Julian explains that AI success depends on disciplined data classification, permission hygiene, and governance before automation begins. Without that groundwork, organizations risk exposing sensitive financial, HR, or executive data to unintended audiences simply because an AI system can surface it.The discussion also explores the operational reality beneath the surface. Most environments are a patchwork of Azure, AWS, on-prem infrastructure, SaaS platforms, and custom applications, often shaped by multiple IT leaders over time. When AI is layered onto this complexity without architectural clarity, inaccurate outputs and flawed business decisions quickly follow.Sean and Julian also examine how AI initiatives often emerge from unexpected places. Legal teams, business units, and individual contributors now build their own AI workflows using low-code and no-code tools, frequently outside formal IT oversight. At the same time, founders and CFOs push for rapid AI adoption while resisting the investment required to clean and secure the foundation.The episode highlights why AI programs are never one-and-done projects. Ongoing maintenance, data validation, and security oversight are essential as inputs change and systems evolve. Julian emphasizes that organizations must treat AI as a permanent capability on the roadmap, not a short-term experiment.Ultimately, the conversation frames AI not as a shortcut, but as a force multiplier. When paired with disciplined architecture and trusted guidance, AI enables scale, speed, and confidence.

Jeremy Keil explains the top 3 tax efficient strategies for charitable giving in 2025. Most people give to charity because it's meaningful to them — not because of the tax break. And that's the right mindset. But if you're already giving, it makes sense to be intentional and structure that giving in a way that helps you keep more of your hard-earned money. In this episode of Retire Today, I walk through the top three charitable giving strategies for 2025, especially in light of new tax rules taking effect in 2026 and important changes already happening this year. With only a limited window left before year-end, now is the time to understand your options. The key is planning — not reacting in April. Why 2025 Is a Unique Giving Year Late in the year, you usually have a clear picture of your income and tax bracket. That makes it the perfect time to decide when and how to give. With upcoming changes like: A new 0.5% AGI floor on charitable deductions starting in 2026 A cap on the value of deductions for high earners A higher SALT deduction limit already in effect 2025 offers an opportunity to be proactive instead of passive. Depending on your income, it may make sense to pull future giving forward — or delay certain gifts until next year. But that decision should be made intentionally, not by default. Strategy #1: Bunch Your Charitable Deductions Bunching means combining multiple years of charitable giving into a single tax year to exceed the standard deduction and unlock itemized deductions. For example, if you normally give $10,000 per year to charity but don't itemize, you may get no tax benefit at all. But by contributing two to four years of giving in one year, you may be able to itemize and deduct the full amount. The most effective way to do this is through a donor-advised fund (DAF). A DAF lets you: Take the tax deduction now Give to charities later, on your preferred schedule Keep your giving consistent for the organizations you support This separates the timing of your tax deduction from the timing of your charitable gifts — a powerful planning tool when income fluctuates. Strategy #2: Donate Appreciated Investments Instead of Cash One of the most tax-efficient ways to give is donating long-term appreciated investments from a taxable brokerage account. When you sell an investment that has gone up in value, you owe capital gains tax. When you donate that same investment directly to charity (or to a donor-advised fund), you: Avoid paying capital gains tax Receive a charitable deduction for the full market value Remove a concentrated position from your portfolio This strategy is especially effective after strong market years like 2023, 2024, and 2025, when many investors are sitting on significant unrealized gains. To qualify, the investment must be held for more than one year (long-term capital gain). Many custodians automatically select the most tax-efficient shares when processing these donations, making the strategy easier to implement than most people expect. Strategy #3: Use Qualified Charitable Distributions (QCDs) For those age 70½ or older, Qualified Charitable Distributions are often the most powerful giving strategy available. A QCD allows you to send money directly from your traditional IRA to a qualified charity. That money: Never shows up as taxable income Can satisfy Required Minimum Distributions (once applicable) Reduces future RMDs by shrinking your IRA balance Many retirees make the mistake of taking IRA withdrawals, depositing the money into checking, and then writing checks to charity. That approach often increases taxable income, affects Social Security taxation, and can raise Medicare premiums — even if a charitable deduction is available. QCDs avoid those issues entirely by keeping the income off your tax return in the first place. Even if you're not yet subject to RMDs, starting QCDs early can still make sense if part of your regular spending includes charitable giving. Putting It All Together These three strategies often work best in combination: Use donor-advised funds to bunch deductions Fund those DAFs with appreciated investments Use QCDs once you reach age 70½ But none of this should be done blindly. The right approach depends on: Your income this year and next Whether you itemize or take the standard deduction Your charitable goals Your long-term retirement and tax plan The most important step is projecting your tax situation before the year ends and making decisions on purpose — not by default.

Michael Fosler was out on a $50,000 bond. He had 43 felony charges hanging over him — assault of a minor, grooming, exploitation material. A no-contact order was in place. The system knew exactly who he was and what he was capable of. And just after 1 a.m. on October 8th, 2024, Aaron Spencer's 13-year-old daughter was in Fosler's truck, being taken toward Fosler's house in the middle of the night. This wasn't a hypothetical threat. This wasn't a father acting on old anger. This was a kidnapping in progress — by the same man who had already violated his child once and was facing decades in prison if she testified against him. Spencer's daughter was the primary witness. Fosler had every reason to want her gone. Spencer pursued Fosler for 20 minutes. Prosecutors say he should have called 911. But Spencer says he was driving at high speed on dark roads trying not to lose sight of the truck carrying his daughter. When he finally forced Fosler off the road, his daughter tried to escape. Fosler allegedly grabbed her. Then Fosler allegedly came at Spencer. That's when Spencer used force. Arkansas law is clear — you are allowed to use deadly force to protect another person from imminent serious harm. Spencer wasn't hunting anyone. He was responding to an active crisis involving his own child and a known predator who had already demonstrated what he was willing to do. Legal experts say this isn't about jury nullification. The defense doesn't need a sympathetic jury to ignore the law. Arkansas law itself provides a path to acquittal. The question is whether Spencer's actions fit the legal definition of justified defense of another — and everything about this case says they do. #AaronSpencer #DefenseOfOthers #ArkansasLaw #ProtectYourFamily #JustifiedForce #MichaelFosler #FatherProtectsChild #LegalDefense #TrueCrime #HiddenKillers Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

No one can ever accuse FBI Director Kash Patel of learning from his mistakes. He got it wrong during the Charlie Kirk shooting investigation when he announced that the shooter was in custody, only to have to backtrack later when it was learned that the FBI had the wrong guy.And now Kash has gone and done it again. He just made the exact same mistake by announcing that the FBI had apprehended the suspect in the Brown University shooting, and yet again, it turns out the FBI had the wrong guy.Glenn discusses the many problems attendant to Kash Patel getting it wrong in such a public way. He explains how this kind of blunder will actually provide the real shooter with what's called a third-party perpetrator defense at trial.Find Glenn on Substack: glennkirschner/substack.comSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

In 2025, Ukraine is facing unprecedented pressure from one of its key partners, the United States. The Trump administration has chosen not to act as Ukraine's ally, but rather as a mediator between Ukraine and Europe on the one hand, and Russia on the other. This shift has fundamentally changed the geopolitical framework of Russia's war against Ukraine. Around the world, the language of victory has largely been replaced by the language of peace. Yet under current conditions, “peace” often implies that Ukraine will not regain its occupied territories—and such a peace may, in fact, amount to Ukraine's defeat. In this episode, we explain why this is a dangerous path. We also look back at 2025 and summarize its key developments *** Host: Volodymyr Yermolenko, a Ukrainian philosopher, editor-in-chief of UkraineWorld, and president of PEN Ukraine. Guest: Tetyana Ogarkova, a Ukrainian journalist and public intellectual, the head of the international department at the Ukraine Crisis Media Centre, and author of the podcast “L'Ukraine face a la guerre”, “Ukraine facing the war”, in French. *** Explaining Ukraine is a podcast by UkraineWorld, an English-language media platform about Ukraine, run by Internews Ukraine.

We've all heard the saying "three strikes and you're out." Donald Trump, Pam Bondi, and Lindsey Halligan have now struck out three times trying to prosecute New York State Attorney General Letitia James. The first indictment that Lindsey Halligan unlawfully obtained against James was dismissed by a federal judge. The second time involved another prosecutor who went into the grand jury and tried to convince them to indict James. The grand jury concluded there was not sufficient evidence to indict her, and refused to do so.Undeterred, DOJ tried to indict James again, and yet again the grand jury said no. This is an example of the American people - the members of the grand jury - standing up to the prosecutorial overreach, abuse, and misconduct of Trump, Bondi, and Halligan.Glenn also discusses the prosecutor from Missouri that the DOJ has now sent into the grand jury TWICE to fail.

An mass shooting event occurred yesterday at Bondi Beach in Australia, by a father-and-son killing team. As usual, the event has led to a tsunami of poorly-reasoned opinionating on social media—and most of that I'll leave to the dummies to wrestle with.In THIS show we'll focus on the LEGAL DYNAMICS of defense against this kind of mass attack. What is legally permissible, and why? How is this legal different from a more traditional deadly-force self-defense scenario, and what additional tactical options does it make lawful that otherwise might be criminal? And MORE!All of this will, of course, be from the legal perspective of AMERICAN use-of-force law, as if the event had tragically occurred in the United States rather than Australia.

The discussion covers the importance of transparency, control, and human oversight in the arbitration process, as well as the potential for AI to improve access to justice by making dispute resolution faster and more cost-effective. Key Takeaways AI is not about replacing humans but enhancing their capabilities. The American Arbitration Association is pioneering AI in legal disputes. AI can draft decisions, but humans retain final authority. Transparency and control are crucial in the arbitration process. Party validation ensures fairness and understanding in disputes. Governed AI operates within strict guidelines to ensure accuracy. The system learns from human edits to improve over time. Speed and cost savings are significant benefits of AI arbitration. AI can open doors to justice for underserved populations. This technology may signal a fundamental shift in legal processes.
