What happens when you buy a home—and uncover a shocking symbol hidden beneath the floor? Michael and TC unpack a viral legal case out of western Pennsylvania where new homeowners discovered a swastika and German eagle concealed in their basement. The sellers didn't disclose it—and the court ruled they didn't have to. Michael reflects on his own experience encountering historic swastika tiles, explores the ethics of real estate disclosure, and asks a bigger question: what else could be hidden in a home that buyers think they should've been told? A fascinating intersection of history, law, real estate, and cultural meaning—this is one discovery you won't forget. Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

1. SAVE America Act (Election Law & Voter ID) Core Argument The SAVE America Act would: Require proof of U.S. citizenship to register to vote Require photo ID to vote Democrats are portrayed as unanimously opposed, preventing passage due to the Senate’s 60‑vote threshold. Strategic Claim Cruz argues Republicans should: Force a “real” filibuster (continuous floor speeches) Make Democratic opposition politically and physically costly He frames Democratic resistance as intentional rather than procedural. Public Opinion Framing Polling is cited (CNN, Pew) to claim: Broad bipartisan and multiracial support for voter ID Democratic leadership (especially Chuck Schumer) is accused of ignoring their own voters. 2. Voter Fraud & Ballot Harvesting Claims Presented Ballot harvesting is described as: A system that enables fraud, especially among elderly or vulnerable populations Democrats are accused of: Supporting policies that increase fraud opportunities Reversing recommendations from the Carter–Baker Commission There is justification for: Photo ID laws Restrictions on mail-in voting Limits on third-party ballot collection 3. Somali Welfare Fraud in Minnesota Central Allegation Massive welfare fraud in Minnesota tied to programs serving the Somali immigrant community. Figures cited include: Up to half of $18 billion in welfare spending allegedly lost to fraud Disproportionately high welfare participation rates among Somali households Democratic state officials are accused of: Knowing about the fraud Allowing it to continue for political gain Silencing whistleblowers Stolen welfare funds indirectly finance al‑Shabab, a terrorist organization 4. Medical Policy Shift on Gender Surgeries for Minors Key Development The American Society of Plastic Surgeons and the American Medical Association are described as: Reversing prior support for “gender‑affirming surgeries” for minors Now recommending deferral until adulthood Causal Explanation The reversal is attributed to: A high‑profile malpractice lawsuit by a detransitioner Legal and financial risk to medical institution Please Hit Subscribe to this podcast Right Now.

In 1999, Logan Marr was kidnapped, and the state of Maine thought it was for the best. In their eyes, the toddler's mother was too poor, too uneducated, too redneck to raise her baby girl. So, they gave her to someone who could. And then someone else. And then someone else. Until finally, in 2001, Christy Marr was finally given back her baby girl: in a casket. This isn't our typical story. This is the story of a legal kidnapping, a desperate mother, a corrupt system, and a state employee who believed she was above the law until finally… she wasn't. - Sources:https://docs.google.com/document/d/1eTYeCoYyxm58DXXdoFbHQyWHlWbcH9iKGIefFcQToW4/edit?tab=t.y2yayotxnlcb Listen to our new show, "THE CONSPIRACY FILES"!: -Spotify - https://open.spotify.com/show/5IY9nWD2MYDzlSYP48nRPl -Apple Podcasts - https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the-conspiracy-files/id1752719844 -Amazon/Audible - https://music.amazon.com/podcasts/ab1ade99-740c-46ae-8028-b2cf41eabf58/the-conspiracy-files -Pandora - https://www.pandora.com/podcast/the-conspiracy-files/PC:1001089101 -iHeart - https://iheart.com/podcast/186907423/ -PocketCast - https://pca.st/dpdyrcca -CastBox - https://castbox.fm/channel/id6193084?country=us - Stay Connected: Join the Murder in America fam in our free Facebook Community for a behind-the-scenes look, more insights and current events in the true crime world: https://www.facebook.com/groups/4365229996855701 If you want even more Murder in America bonus content, including ad-free episodes, come join us on Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/murderinamerica Instagram: http://instagram.com/murderinamerica/ Facebook:https://www.facebook.com/people/Murder-in-America-Podcast/100086268848682/ Twitter: https://twitter.com/MurderInAmerica TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@theparanormalfiles and https://www.tiktok.com/@courtneybrowen Feeling spooky?

Welcome to episode 317 of Grow Your Law Firm. On today's episode, Ken sits down with Dennis Meador, CEO and founder of the Legal Podcast Network, to unpack why podcasting has become one of the highest-ROI marketing tools available to law firms today. The conversation explores how authority-based podcasting builds trust before a potential client ever picks up the phone, why evergreen audio and video content compounds over time, and how attorneys can turn a single recording session into dozens of marketing assets without adding more work to their plate. Dennis also explains why most lawyers fail when they try to podcast on their own and how professional production protects and elevates a firm's brand. What you'll learn in this episode: Authority Podcasting vs. Traditional Shows - Why trust-driven, client-focused content outperforms casual interviews - How podcasts position attorneys as experts before the first consultation Podcasting as a High-ROI Marketing Asset - How evergreen episodes keep working long after they're published - Why podcasts compound value unlike ads or one-time campaigns Turning One Recording Into Dozens of Assets - Repurposing podcasts into short videos, audiograms, and social posts - Staying visible across platforms without paid ads Common Mistakes Lawyers Make When Podcasting - How poor audio and video can damage credibility - Why production quality matters as much as the message Building Know, Like, and Trust at Scale - Why clients feel connected before they ever call - Using podcasts to attract clients, referral partners, or both Resources: Website: thelegalpodcastnetwork.com LinkedIn: linkedin.com/in/dennismeador Facebook: facebook.com/legalpodcastnetwork.lawyers Additional Resources: https://www.pilmma.org/the-mastermind-effect https://www.pilmma.org/resources https://www.pilmma.org/mastermind https://calendly.com/jenna-pilmma/strategy-session-with-pilmma AI for PI Expo: www.pilmma.org/ai-for-pi-expo

People around the world have now heard the reporting about five year-old Liam Conejos Ramos. ICE grabbed him up on his way home from preschool, used him as bait to lure his father out of the house, and then jailed them both – put them both in detention - even whisking them away from their home in Minnesota to a detention facility in Texas. This inhumane treatment by the Trump administration prompted an outcry, both nationally and internationally. But it also prompted something more: a short, two-page court order from a federal judge in Texas, that is as unique as it is powerful. That court order may prove to be historic when the age of the Trump-induced darkness comes to an end.

The Portland-based Innovation Law Lab was in federal court Wednesday, challenging the ICE policy of arresting immigrants and U.S. citizens without warrants and without due process. If successful, Oregon would join Washington, D.C. and Colorado in preventing this tactic. From warrantless arrests to unlawful use of force to arresting of journalists and other violations of civil rights, Portland constitutional law scholar Steve Kanter says these federal unconstitutional actions threaten democracy itself. Kanter joins us to put these actions in the context of the fundamental freedoms guaranteed by the First, Fourth and Fifth Amendments. Jordan Cunnings, legal director of the Innovation Law Lab, also joins us to share details about the federal court hearing on warrantless arrests in Oregon.

Episode DescriptionWhat happens when you start a law firm with zero clients, zero contacts, and a vision that doesn't fit anyone else's mold? Gabriela Smith did exactly that—and built it so successfully that her anesthesiologist husband retired from medicine to join her. In this powerful conversation, Gabriela shares how she transformed from a BigLaw litigator who hated asking permission for vacation into an entrepreneur building a tech-powered, human-centric M&A law firm that's rewriting the rules. She talks about legal subscriptions replacing billable hours, why AI can't replace human intuition, creating a law firm "umbrella" for entrepreneurial attorneys who want freedom, and what it really takes to walk through the thick mud of reinvention. This is for every attorney who's ever felt like they don't fit the traditional mold—because you don't have to.Connect with Gabriela SmithInstagram: @thegabbysmith LinkedIn: Gabriela Smith Email: gsmith@gnslawplc.com Podcast: Exit Ed PodcastGabriela mentors moms and entrepreneurs—reach out if you want to connect.

Michael Wolff joins Joanna Coles as Trump predictably lashes out in the fallout from the Epstein files—targeting Wolff as his latest nemesis, threatening lawsuits he can't afford to file, and insisting the real conspiracy is against him. They unpack Trump's rambling, defensive response to questions about Epstein flights, island denials, and the newly resurfaced claim—now echoed in official documents—that Epstein introduced Melania to Trump, a detail Trump world once tried to bury with billion-dollar legal threats. From Bill Gates and elite denial to Epstein's role as an information broker, the conversation widens to Trump's current obsession: federalizing elections, re-litigating 2020, and quietly laying the groundwork to undermine the 2026 midterms.

Heads were turning over the weekend after Chad Mizelle, a former Justice Department official, put out a recruitment call for Trump-loyal Assistant U.S. Attorneys to hit him up on X. Mary and Andrew begin by highlighting the atypical nature of this outreach, while noting how slim the pool of applicants must be for what have long-been highly coveted and competitive positions. This piled on another DOJ fumble after a huge tranche ofEpstein files was released that unintentionally exposed the personal information of numerous victims. The co-hosts then turn to Minnesota, where a decision came in allowing Operation Metro Surge to continue, while another judge admonished DHS for ignoring over 90court orders. Mary and Andrew also call out the arrests of journalists Don Lemon and Georgia Fort during an anti-ICE protest in the state. Plus: a beat on a controversial federal search warrant targeting 2020 ballots in Fulton County, with more to come on that issue.Further reading:Here is the Epstein victims' letter: Emergency Request for Immediate Judicial Intervention—Epstein Transparency ActHere is the New York Times guest essay that Andrew mentioned: We Were Top Homeland Security Lawyers.

So friends, can I ask you a question? Does it feel like it might be time to start talking about a constitutional do-over?We have a corrupt and criminal president who feels completely unconstrained by the United States Constitution. As but one example: he has abused the constitutional pardon power beyond anybody's wildest imagination. We have a majority on the Supreme Court that feels completely unconstrained by the expressed language of the Constitution. As but one example, the Constitution provides that the president shall take care that the laws of the nation be faithfully executed. Yet the Supreme Court - a majority of the justices - interpreted that very language, that solemn duty to take care that the laws be faithfully executed, as indicating that a president has complete leeway to violate all the laws of our nation, victimizing wide swaths of the American population, and he has complete immunity from prosecutionThen we have Congress - one political party that has just laid down and let a tyrant in the oval office walk all over them - completely abandoning their status as a coequal branch of government.So let me ask you again friends: do you think it's time we talked about a constitutional do-over? Well, that's what I just talked about with my friend, law professor, and constitutional scholar Kim Wehle. Kim authored a great new piece - you can find it on Substack appropriately titled, "Is it time to start thinking about a constitutional do-over". And given that our Constitution is plainly not up to the task of governing in these dangerous and lawless times, I think the answer to that question is not just yes but hell yes!

Legal Team, we're back in Beverly Hills with more research into Amanda Frances. From questionable cease-and-desist letters allegedly sent to Redditors leaving reviews, to a failed federal lawsuit over the “look and feel” of another woman's finance book. In this episode, we break down the consumer rights issues, the limits of non-disparagement clauses for people leaving honest reviews, and why Amanda's attempt to claim ownership over “As F**k” and bathtub-money vibes didn't exactly impress a federal judge.

Independent investigative journalism, broadcasting, trouble-making and muckraking with Brad Friedman of BradBlog.com
Keith Petty believes he would likely be dead from alcohol consumption if cannabis had not entered his life, as he consumed alcohol daily for years and engaged in destructive occasional drinking.Childhood trauma began early for Keith with his mother's incarceration and substance abuse problems, his grandparents' divorce when he was six or seven, and eventual placement in foster care at age 13 due to medical neglect.Foster care placement initially created culture shock as Keith moved from a chaotic household where his uncle sold marijuana to a strict religious family with no television and church three times weekly.Violence occurred in Keith's second foster home over sexuality issues and an AOL gay chat room incident, leading to his placement with a neighbor who became his permanent foster mother until age 19.Alcoholism escalated after Keith's first relationship ended, leading to ten years of reckless destruction including credit card fraud using his company's credit card for partying purposes.Legal consequences resulted in Keith facing jail time for credit card fraud and forgery at age 26, but he qualified for Virginia's first-time offenders program requiring two years of drug court and outpatient rehabilitation.Recovery through court-ordered sobriety was challenging as Keith had no family financial support system, forcing him to give up his leased home and handle legal consequences independently.A severe accident occurred in 2020 when Keith fell while day drinking during COVID quarantine, breaking his tibia, fibula, talus, and calcaneus bones, requiring surgery with rods and screws and causing permanent nerve damage.Blood alcohol content measured 0.34 the morning after Keith's accident, more than four times the legal limit of 0.08, highlighting the severity of his alcohol consumption.Pain management options were rejected by Keith due to family history with opiates, and high-dose ibuprofen consumption threatened organ damage, leading his doctor to suggest cannabis as an alternative.Cannabis treatment began with edibles and vaping cartridges, successfully managing Keith's pain while allowing his doctor to discontinue his Xanax prescription and break a generational cycle of benzodiazepine dependence.Mental health improvements from cannabis included reduced stress, better ADHD management alongside his Vyvanse prescription, and clearer thinking without sedation or brain fog.Business opportunity emerged when Keith was overcharged at a vape shop, inspiring him to convert his old party bus into a mobile cannabis dispensary serving farmer's markets, biker events, and local fairs.Sobriety from alcohol has been maintained for two years without AA meetings, as cannabis helped Keith view alcohol differently and removed its appeal entirely.

Today's episode dives into major policy and legal developments shaking the nation: 1️⃣ Gender-Affirming Surgeries: The American Society of Plastic Surgeons recommends delaying surgeries for minors until age 19, citing evidence that many children's gender dysphoria resolves naturally. This comes after a $2M malpractice lawsuit in New York, raising questions about consent and ethics. 2️⃣ ICE Drawdown in Minneapolis: 700 ICE agents are being pulled out amid violent anti-ICE protests and illegal roadblocks. Messaging failures from the White House have left conservatives frustrated, while Democrats exploit public confusion. 3️⃣ Immigration Polling & Enforcement: Public support for deporting illegal immigrants remains strong (61–73%), yet political missteps threaten enforcement and electoral strategy. The fallout demonstrates how messaging and leadership decisions directly impact public perception and policy.
Federal prosecutors in New York confirmed that an active grand jury investigation into Ghislaine Maxwell and other potential Jeffrey Epstein co-conspirators is still underway, despite Maxwell's 2021 conviction. In court filings, the U.S. Attorney's Office for the Southern District of New York revealed that the probe remains sealed, describing it as part of a broader effort to hold accountable anyone who participated in or enabled Epstein's trafficking network. The disclosure was made during legal arguments over unsealing additional materials from Maxwell's criminal case, with prosecutors warning that premature disclosure could interfere with “ongoing law-enforcement activity.”The revelation reignited public scrutiny over why, years after Epstein's death, no additional high-profile figures have been charged. It also underscored the enduring sensitivity of the case, as prosecutors continue to pursue evidence tied to Epstein's finances, logistics network, and associates. Legal experts noted that such a statement from federal authorities is rare, suggesting that investigators may still be gathering testimony or preparing potential indictments against individuals whose names surfaced during Maxwell's trial and related lawsuits.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.com

So friends, can I ask you a question? Does it feel like it might be time to start talking about a constitutional do-over?We have a corrupt and criminal president who feels completely unconstrained by the United States Constitution. As but one example: he has abused the constitutional pardon power beyond anybody's wildest imagination. We have a majority on the Supreme Court that feels completely unconstrained by the expressed language of the Constitution. As but one example, the Constitution provides that the president shall take care that the laws of the nation be faithfully executed. Yet the Supreme Court - a majority of the justices - interpreted that very language, that solemn duty to take care that the laws be faithfully executed, as indicating that a president has complete leeway to violate all the laws of our nation, victimizing wide swaths of the American population, and he has complete immunity from prosecutionThen we have Congress - one political party that has just laid down and let a tyrant in the oval office walk all over them - completely abandoning their status as a coequal branch of government.So let me ask you again friends: do you think it's time we talked about a constitutional do-over? Well, that's what I just talked about with my friend, law professor, and constitutional scholar Kim Wehle. Kim authored a great new piece - you can find it on Substack appropriately titled, "Is it time to start thinking about a constitutional do-over". And given that our Constitution is plainly not up to the task of governing in these dangerous and lawless times, I think the answer to that question is not just yes but hell yes!

On this episode of Badlands Daily, CannCon and Ashe in America break down a major breaking story that raises serious legal and election-related implications tied to Fulton County. The discussion centers on newly uncovered information first reported through Badlands, examining how the details intersect with election integrity, legal exposure, and broader systemic failures. The hosts explore the significance of the findings, why the legal angle matters as much as the election angle, and how transportation networks, government involvement, and fraud allegations connect across multiple layers. Along the way, they react to national commentary, discuss related media coverage, and outline what to watch next as additional details are expected to emerge. This episode sets the stage for deeper analysis in upcoming programming, including further document reviews and follow-up investigations, while reinforcing why this story could have far-reaching consequences.
Heads were turning over the weekend after Chad Mizelle, a former Justice Department official, put out a recruitment call for Trump-loyal Assistant U.S. Attorneys to hit him up on X. Mary and Andrew begin by highlighting the atypical nature of this outreach, while noting how slim the pool of applicants must be for what have long-been highly coveted and competitive positions. This piled on another DOJ fumble after a huge tranche of Epstein files was released that unintentionally exposed the personal information of numerous victims. The co-hosts then turn to Minnesota, where a decision came in allowing Operation Metro Surge to continue, while another judge admonished DHS for ignoring over 90 court orders. Mary and Andrew also call out the arrests of journalists Don Lemon and Georgia Fort during an anti-ICE protest in the state. Plus: a beat on a controversial federal search warrant targeting 2020 ballots in Fulton County, with more to come on that issue.Further reading:Here is the Epstein victims' letter: Emergency Request for Immediate Judicial Intervention—Epstein Transparency Act Here is the New York Times guest essay that Andrew mentioned: We Were Top Homeland Security Lawyers.

America is facing something far more dangerous than protest or even rioting — it is an ongoing insurrection against federal immigration law. In this episode, I'm joined by former DHS official and legal expert George Fishman to break down why President Trump must immediately invoke the Insurrection Act to stop coordinated street violence, judicial obstruction, and open attacks on ICE officers in blue states. Fishman explains how the Insurrection Act has been used throughout American history — from Eisenhower to George Washington — and why today's coordinated effort to block immigration enforcement meets every legal threshold for invocation. I also discuss the double standard: how J6 defendants were prosecuted vs. current anti-ICE rioters; how judicial supremacy is nullifying the 1996 Immigration Act; the GOP's failure to use leverage in the DHS funding fight; and state-based enforcement as the final line of defense.

In what looks like yet another vindictive prosecution of someone Donald Trump doesn't like, career journalist Don Lemon has been arrested. This case very likely will go the way of other vindictive prosecutions brought by Trump's dirty DOJ leadership. Remember the vindictive prose James Comey? Dismissed. Remember the vindictive prosecution of Letitia James? Thrown out. Next up - the vindictive prosecution of Don Lemon.Glenn sat down with Adam Klasfeld of All Rise News for a deep dive discussion on what appears to be trumped-up charges against Don Lemon and other journalists.Find Adam Klasfeld: www.allrisenews.comFind 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.

Hidden Killers With Tony Brueski | True Crime News & Commentary
In 1975, a woman named Gloria Ladd killed her two teenage sons. Drugged them. Smothered them. She was charged with murder, pled insanity, and was committed to a state hospital. Then she inherited their money.The California Court of Appeal ruled that an insanity verdict does not trigger the Slayer Statute — the law designed to prevent killers from profiting off their crimes. The statute requires proof of "intentional" killing. Insanity negates intent. Gloria Ladd inherited from the sons she murdered. That case, Estate of Ladd, is from 1979. It's still good law. It's never been overruled.Now apply that to the Reiner case.Rob and Michele Reiner's estate is estimated at $200 million. Nick Reiner is charged with their murders. His former attorney declared him "not guilty of murder" under California law. Legal analysts expect an insanity defense. If Nick is found NGRI, he may still be entitled to inherit — potentially $50 million or more, depending on the estate plan.The only way to stop it? Jake and Romy Reiner would have to sue their own brother in probate court. They'd carry the burden of proving Nick acted intentionally — against an NGRI verdict that already found he lacked the capacity to form intent. They'd relive their parents' deaths in civil litigation while their brother potentially collects his share.That's the position California law creates. A 45-year-old loophole. A $200 million estate. And an impossible choice for the surviving family.This episode breaks down the legal mechanics, the precedent, and the financial incentive structure behind the insanity defense that nobody wants to talk about.#NickReiner #RobReiner #MicheleReiner #SlayerStatute #EstateOfLadd #InsanityDefense #CaliforniaLaw #Inheritance #HiddenKillers #TrueCrimeJoin Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?
