“ It really helped me as a coach to be able to look at my athletes and remind them, it doesn't have to be about a PR, doesn't have to be about the best day you wanted, but it can be—if you're healthy—about the best day you have that day. And that can be celebrated, that can be fun, even if it isn't the outcome you would've ideally written in your book.”   Becki Spellman has had a long, successful career in distance running—she qualified for her first Olympic Marathon Trials in 2008 and her fourth in 2020. In that time, she's dealt with her fair share of setbacks, including two Achilles surgeries, diastasis recti, sciatica, plantar fasciitis, and more.   As she shares in this week's episode, she's come to realize that the ups and downs are all part of the sport. As an athlete, her injuries have taught her about her body, her motivation, and ultimately, her resilience. As a coach, she's learned how to guide others through both the postpartum period and injury-related setbacks, helping find the root cause of their problems and rebuild so they can get back to doing what they love.    Becki is on the upswing now—she just won the Cap City Half Marathon on April 27 in 1:23:09. But at this point, her race times don't define her; showing up, even when you're far from your best, can be just as joyful and rewarding, she's found. (And, she's also found the LEVER system to be a critical part of both her rehab and her training—she shares more about how she uses it and why she continually recommends it to her athletes.)   Resources/links: Recording of The Injured Athletes Club Recovery Summit: The Athlete's Toolkit   A huge thank you to LEVER Movement, the exclusive sponsor of season 8 of The Injured Athletes Club podcast!

J'ai découvert Linda Hazi un peu par hasard, et je n'ai jamais oublié son nom. À seulement 40 ans, elle pilote la Fontenille Collection : huit hôtels de caractère, bientôt onze, nichés dans des lieux d'exception. Mais ce qui m'a fascinée chez elle, ce n'est pas seulement son parcours, c'est son intensité, sa franchise, et cette manière rare de tout assumer.Dans cet épisode, Linda m'a parlé sans filtre : de son rythme effréné, de son rapport à l'excellence, des tensions que cela peut créer… mais aussi de sa maternité, qu'elle revendique comme une force, et de cette levée de fonds avec LVMH qui a changé la donne.On a discuté ambition, intuitions, maternité, erreurs aussi. Elle m'a confié comment son exigence l'aide à viser haut, mais lui joue parfois des tours. Et ce que veut dire, concrètement, construire un groupe hôtelier qui ne ressemble à aucun autre.J'ai été bluffée par sa lucidité, son humour discret et sa capacité à rester profondément humaine dans un monde, le luxe, qui ne l'est pas toujours.Cet échange m'a fait réfléchir à ce que cela veut dire, aujourd'hui, être une femme de pouvoir. Et comment, derrière la réussite, il y a toujours un travail invisible, une énergie folle, une solitude parfois.J'espère que cet épisode vous inspirera autant qu'il m'a marquée. Et si c'est le cas, vous savez ce qu'il vous reste à faire : partagez-le, parlez-en autour de vous, et laissez-moi un commentaire

“With overuse injuries especially, how do you help injured athletes recognize what to take ownership for, and what was out of their control? For example, one's weightlifting form may have led them to injury. Shame and guilt can be common emotions here, which are not helpful to our recovery, but how do we recognize what causal factors to take ownership of in a healthy way?” —Clark   “If a series of acute injuries are a consequence of a chronic condition, how can you ever live without fear of reinjury or, perhaps worse, self-blame? Asking for a friend.” —Jennifer   In season 8 of The Injured Athletes Club podcast, mental skills coach Carrie Jackson answers a question every other week about the mental side of overcoming injuries—and this week, it's a twofer, with questions about exploring your own role in your injury   It's common to search for answers after you get hurt, and while it makes sense to consider the factors that contributed, self-blame and self-flagellation do nothing to speed your recovery. Instead, they produce feelings of shame and a sense of being stuck in the past.   Instead, Coach Carrie recommends reframing injury as an inherent risk you face as an athlete. Have compassion for yourself, knowing that of course, you would've made different choices if you knew in advance what the outcome would be. And, she suggests ways to rebalance fear of re-injury by being clear and deliberate about how you're rebuilding.    A huge thank you to LEVER Movement, the exclusive sponsor of season 8 of The Injured Athletes Club podcast!

We were so thrilled to welcome one of our amazing Boston Marathoners, Lauren Hitchens, to the podcast.Lauren is an experienced marathon runner, having completed ten marathons since 2016, including all six Marathon Majors. She set her PR of 3:38:35 at the 2023 Chicago Marathon, qualifying her for the 2025 Boston Marathon, her first. In spring 2024, after successfully running the Tokyo Marathon, Lauren experienced pain in her foot that has taken her on a journey of seeking a path to healing that has required multiple expert opinions, an unconventional approach to training for Boston (including the use of tools like Lever and Fluid Running), and a reimagining of her goals for her first Boston. Lauren balances her training with her responsibilities as a mother and business executive at Google. We are so grateful to Lauren for sharing her inspiring story!

“ That's how I learn life. I look at it, I visualize myself doing it, and then I execute. And if it doesn't feel right, I can feel it. I can see it, almost like a third person's view. That's the way I've approached life; that's the way I've been able to really reel in on what I'm good at and what I'm not good at.”   Ryan Medrano has faced his share of challenges—he was born with mild cerebral palsy, which caused motor and cognitive delays, and was often bullied as a child because of it. But as he learned to walk and read social signals, he gained knowledge about himself and the world that would eventually allow him to excel in sports and life.   He met previous podcast guest Noelle Lambert when both were cast members on season 43 of Survivor. Noelle—who was already competing in para track & field —convinced Ryan he, too, should return to the sport (he'd run in high school) at the elite level. And within two years, he'd won a silver medal at World Championships, gold at the ParaPan American Games, and two silvers, in the T38 100 meters and 400 meters, at the Paralympics in Paris.   All that success came despite frequently competing in pain related to his disability—his mental game, including his use of imagery and self-talk, has long been incredibly strong. But as his athletic career continues, he's learning more about his body and what it needs to recover well and feel good. And along the way, he shares his passion with the next generation through his work as a motivational speaker.   Resources/links: Ryan's Instagram, TikTok Episode 145 with Noelle Lambert    A huge thank you to LEVER Movement, the exclusive sponsor of season 8 of The Injured Athletes Club podcast!

I dagens avsnitt gästas vi av den frispråkiga hälsoprofilen och entreprenören David Haroun – som gjort sig känd för att utmana myter och förenklade sanningar inom träning och kost. Hans livsresa har varit allt annat än linjär: från att ha vägt 120 kg och levt ett ohälsosamt liv till att idag vara en stark förespråkare för hållbara vanor och balanserad hälsa på sociala medier. Tillsammans pratar vi om vanliga misstag, populära hälsotrender och varför det inte finns en universallösning för välmående. Vi dyker ner i vad som faktiskt fungerar – och varför.David blev tidigt framgångsrik inom försäljning och levde i ett högt tempo men med dålig kost och noll återhämtning - vilket tillslut blev ohållbart och han behövde en förändring. Davids väg in i fitnessvärlden blev intensiv och kantades av experiment, dieter och tävlingar inom “mens physique”. Kaloriräkning, strikt kontroll och perioder av svält tog över vardagen – tills han insåg att kroppen blivit hans identitet. Det var då han bestämde sig för att göra en verklig förändring.David sa upp sig från sitt välbetalda säljjobb, utbildade sig till personlig tränare och började hjälpa andra hitta en mer långsiktig väg till hälsa. Idag är han en tydlig och för många provocerande röst i en bransch som till stor del drivs av trender, snabba lösningar och skrämselretorik.Häng med på ett avsnitt fyllt av insikter och aha-ögonblick – när David Haroun delar sin resa, och brutalt ärliga syn på vad det egentligen innebär att leva hälsosamt.

Dans cet épisode, il ne sera pas question de couche lavables et de petits gestes pour réduire les déchets à la maison. Les familles que Charlotte Meyer a rencontrées pour son enquête publiée dans le livre « Les enfants de l'apocalypse » aux éditions Tana, vivent dans des cabanes en bois ou des yourtes en paille, en Corrèze ou dans la forêt de Brocéliande, en autosuffisance, se soignent avec les plantes, et consacrent une majeure partie de leur temps à l'instruction de leurs enfants, par l'expérience, la découverte et la connaissance de la nature. Plutôt que de leur transmettre l'éco anxiété qui nous mine, c'est une démarche d'éco-optimisme qu'ils engagent en engageant toute leur famille à faire autrement voire à désobéir…Charlotte Meyer a rencontré ces mères et ces pères qui refusent la société de consommation, et pour qui faire des enfants est le meilleur moyen d'élever une génération capable de sauver la planète. Dans cet essai, on découvre ces familles discrètes dans leur rébellion, pour qui désobéir, c'est résister et avancer.Mères, un podcast produit par Les Louves.

In this second part from the Milken Global Institute, Jeff Selingo engages in a provocative conversation with investor and Harvard critic Bill Ackman. They discuss the challenges facing elite higher education today—from DEI rollbacks and government funding threats to what Ackman describes as Harvard's financial crisis and governance failures. Ackman argues that administrative bloat, viewpoint homogeneity, and an unsustainable business model have undermined top institutions, while suggesting Harvard's $53 billion endowment may be significantly overvalued. The discussion explores contentious issues in admissions fairness, including legacy preferences, and concludes with Ackman's vision for higher education's future, where competition from new models might force established universities to reform or risk irrelevance. Key Moments0:00 - Intro1:04 - Federal Funding as a Lever of Influence8:07 - Board Insulation at Harvard13:08 - Limiting Class Size14:25 - Fairness in Admissions18:27 - Where We Go From Here Connect with Michael Horn:Sign Up for the The Future of Education NewsletterWebsiteLinkedInX (Twitter)Threads Connect with Jeff Selingo:Sign Up for the Next NewsletterWebsiteX (Twitter)ThreadsLinkedIn Connect with Future U:TwitterYouTubeThreadsInstagramFacebookLinkedIn Submit a question and if we answer it on air we'll send you Future U. swag!Sign up for Future U. emails to get special updates and behind-the-scenes content.

“ How do you stay patient when the doctor says you're doing too much? Mentally I get so down.” —Kathy   In season 8 of The Injured Athletes Club podcast, mental skills coach Carrie Jackson answers a question every other week about the mental side of overcoming injuries.    This week, she empathizes with Kathy's conundrum—most injured athletes aren't happy with the pace of their recovery, because they don't want to be injured in the first place. But patience is essential, and the way to cultivate it is to recognize it for the strength and power that it holds.    Critical steps include letting go of comparisons and judging yourself not on where you hoped you'd be or where others are, but on where your body is today, right now. Breathe, focus on what you can control, and adjust your goals as needed to match your current reality, and soon enough, you'll find yourself soaring beyond them.   Resources/links: Rebound: Train Your Mind to Bounce Back Stronger from Sports Injuries  A huge thank you to LEVER Movement, the exclusive sponsor of season 8 of The Injured Athletes Club podcast!

In this episode of Passing Judgment, host Jessica Levinson speaks with NPR's Elissa Nadworny to unpack the Trump administration's efforts to withhold federal funding from colleges and universities over issues like antisemitism and DEI practices. They discuss how these unprecedented moves are impacting not campus life, but vital medical and scientific research nationwide. Elissa explains the legal challenges schools like Harvard are mounting in response, the stakes involved for the entire higher education sector, and the broader implications for public policy.Here are three key takeaways you don't want to miss:Federal Funding as a Lever in Higher Education Policy: The episode opens by surveying recent actions from the Trump administration regarding federal funding for colleges and universities. The administration is using financial levers—pausing, freezing, or cutting funds—to influence policies on campus, particularly tied to issues like DEI (diversity, equity, and inclusion) and antisemitism. Mechanisms and Legality of Federal Control: The speakers discuss how and why the administration has the power to control this funding. The complexities of federal funding—who controls the purse strings, when Congress vs. the executive branch has authority, and what legal mechanisms are at play—come up. The episode highlights that while presidents can make funding conditional, the legality often hinges on whether proper procedures are followed (Administrative Procedures Act), not just on broad authority.Who Really Loses When Funds Are Cut: The speakers emphasize that federal research dollars are not just about student amenities—they fund major scientific, medical, and technological research. The implications of large-scale cuts ripple well beyond campuses, potentially hurting national health, technological innovation, and local economies (since universities are major employers and research hubs).Follow Our Host: @LevinsonJessica

In this on-the-road episode of the No Lowballers Podcast, hosts Logan Metesh of High Caliber History and Allen Forkner of GunBroker.com travel to Louisiana for LeverFest and set up shop at the Gun Talk Studios. They're joined by Chris Ellis, Vice President of Marketing at Timney Triggers, for a wide-ranging conversation about the evolution of aftermarket triggers, the legacy of Timney, and why accuracy matters more than ever. Chris takes us back to the founding of Timney Triggers in 1946 and explains how the company helped transform old surplus service rifles into capable hunting firearms through affordable, drop-in trigger upgrades. From humble beginnings improving Mausers and Springfields to becoming the go-to name in precision triggers for ARs, shotguns, lever guns, and more, Timney's journey mirrors the rise of America's DIY gun culture. With LeverFest as the backdrop, the group also discusses the growing popularity of tactical lever guns, how user feedback drives Timney's product development, and what it means to bring consistency and customization to every platform—from Glocks to Mosins. Key Topics Discussed: The Origin of Timney Triggers:Chris walks through the early post-WWII days when returning GIs wanted to make their surplus rifles accurate enough for deer season—and how Timney delivered with the first mass-market drop-in trigger. Drop-In Triggers and Accessibility:No gunsmith? No problem. Learn how Timney's plug-and-play approach opened up custom triggers to the average shooter and laid the groundwork for today's home-built precision rifles. The Rise of the AR and the Modern Era:Chris explains how the early 2000s AR boom pushed Timney to innovate again with cassette-style drop-in AR triggers, expanding their reach beyond bolt guns and into every major firearm platform. Tactical Lever Guns and the Modern Market:From Marlin's Dark Series to Smith & Wesson's new stealth builds, lever guns are getting the modern treatment—and Timney is right in the middle of the movement with upgraded triggers designed for fast-paced precision. Listening to the Shooter Community:Whether it's 10/22s, Glocks, shotguns, or even Mosin-Nagants, Timney's catalog of triggers has been shaped by shooter feedback. If it's got a trigger, they're looking at it. On-the-Range Comparisons:At LeverFest, Logan and Allen shoot both factory and Timney-equipped lever guns side-by-side, revealing how much of a difference a great trigger can make in real time.

 ”What went through my mind—I was 19 at the time, my birthday was the prior month—was, oh my goodness, is my life over in terms of being able to live my dream? Because hockey, for me, wasn't just a sport. It was a gateway to do better in all facets of life.”   Tom Smith doesn't like the word “impossible.” After all, time after time, he's beaten the odds. After a paralyzing spinal cord injury during a hockey game, some doctors didn't think he would walk again—but he found a team that believed he could not only walk but skate. Nine months later, he returned to the ice.   His extensive rehab strengthened his body so much that he had no more risk of another injury than any other athlete. But the unthinkable happened, again, when he hit the boards during hockey practice. He found himself back in the hospital relearning to walk, having injured a completely different part of his spine.   Once again, extensive therapy restored much of his function. Then, to complete what he calls his “unwanted hat trick,” a car accident on the way to physical therapy damaged his thoracic spine.    It took three years, but he learned to walk once again; in the process, he found his life's purpose. Now, he's the co-founder and president of the Thomas E. Smith Foundation, which works to change the lives of those living with spinal cord injury and paralysis. And earlier this month, he walked the Boston Marathon for the seventh time, raising awareness and funds for paralysis along the way.   Resources/links: Tom's Instagram The Thomas E.

“ When you're injured and beginning to rejoin group rides/workouts, how do you let other riders know you're not at 100%? I'm thinking specifically of gravel and mountain biking. I have trouble clipping out quickly, and am currently overly cautious. I want to ride in the very back, but sometimes there are other people ALSO trying to ride in the back. I know people don't want/need to hear my ‘woe is me' injury story, but I also don't want to be a hazard!” —Whitney   In season 8 of The Injured Athletes Club podcast, mental skills coach Carrie Jackson answers a question every other week about the mental side of overcoming injuries. This week, she addresses returning to sport, and how to do so safely and respectfully when other people are involved.   Coach Carrie applauds Whitney for her courage in getting back out there and her conscientiousness in being aware of others' needs. Balancing it all out might take a little coordination and communication before the ride, either electronically or in person. This can feel uncomfortable at first, she acknowledges—but in the end, it's the best way to clarify expectations and help everyone have the best day possible.   Resources/links: Recording of The Injured Athletes Club Recovery Summit: The Athlete's Toolkit   A huge thank you to LEVER Movement, the exclusive sponsor of season 8 of The Injured Athletes Club podcast!

Points of Interest1:02 – 1:38 – Intro: Marcel introduces the session as a condensed version of his All-in Agency Summit talk, aimed at equipping agencies with the key levers to diagnose and improve profitability.3:05 – 3:18 – 80/20 Profitability Focus: The goal is to give agencies 20% of the knowledge that provides 80% of the insight needed to take control of profitability, regardless of market conditions.4:28 – 6:27 – The Growth Trap Cycle: Agencies often get stuck in a cycle of hiring during growth, losing profitability, scaling again, and repeatedly encountering the same financial challenges at larger scales.6:42 – 7:01 – Identifying the Real Problem: Founders are urged to identify whether their agency's issue is inefficient delivery (indigestion) or lack of revenue (starvation) to avoid insolvency.9:01 – 10:06 – Financial Metrics Foundation: Understanding core financial metrics—especially agency gross income (AGI)—is essential to making better business decisions beyond tax reporting.14:24 – 18:05 – Delivery Margin as the Core Metric: Agencies should aim for delivery costs to stay under 50% of AGI, enabling better spending on overhead and stronger profitability.21:44 – 26:44 – Lever 1: Average Cost Per Hour: Lowering the average cost of labor through delegation and improved processes helps reduce delivery costs and increase profitability.28:03 – 31:55 – Lever 2: Average Billable Rate (ABR): Maximizing revenue per hour of delivery time, regardless of billing model, improves margins—either by pricing higher or working more efficiently.34:17 – 38:24 – Lever 3: Utilization Rate: Utilization measures how much team capacity is spent on client work; improving it by selling more work or adjusting staff size directly affects profitability.42:01 – 44:45 – Utilization Benchmarks: Weekly and annual utilization targets vary by role; producers should aim for 75%+ weekly, and teams should average 50–65% annually including all roles.45:27 – 49:26 – Impact of Levers on Profit: A case study illustrates how modest gains in utilization and ABR can shift profit margins from 10% to 40%, increasing valuation by up to 500% without hiring or cutting overhead.Show NotesAll-in Agency SummitChris Dubois & Dynamic Agency OSFree Agency Profit ToolkitFree access to our Model PlatformParakeeto Foundations CourseLove the PodcastLeave us a review here.

What if the future of civilization rests in the hands of those who know how — and where — to give? In this visionary episode of IAM Insider, Josh Leonard joins Robb Smith to unveil his new developmental map of philanthropy, created using the Context AI platform (now available to all core members of Integal Life). Together they explore how philanthropic institutions — uniquely positioned between government, business, and civil society — have the potential to become the most powerful levers for long-term systems transformation. Josh introduces the concept of integrative philanthropy, the emerging next stage in the evolution of giving, which transcends both the technocratic rigor of strategic philanthropy and the equity-driven activism of empowerment philanthropy. He walks us through a multilayered quadrant map that reveals how each aspect of the philanthropic ecosystem — from leadership vision to funding models to cultural values — is evolving across developmental stages, and where the pain points are that signal readiness for transformation. As global systems teeter under the weight of the metacrisis, Robb and Josh argue that philanthropy is perhaps the only institution in society with the freedom, foresight, and capital to steward truly long-range change. But it requires a new level of strategic intelligence, developmental awareness, and epistemic humility — all of which are built into the integrative approach. Whether you're a funder, nonprofit leader, systems thinker, or cultural futurist, this episode offers an urgent call to action — and a profoundly hopeful map for how we might evolve the way we support what matters most.

In this episode of Veteran Made, Zack Lever shares his compelling journey leading up to his participation in the Old Glory Ultra Relay. Initially selected as a team chief rather than a runner, Zack candidly discusses the internal conflict he faced when asked to contribute in a supporting role rather than running—a passion that defines him. Despite his initial hesitation, Zack leaned into the challenge, embracing the leadership role and preparing to guide his team through the grueling relay. However, when unforeseen circumstances opened a spot for him to run, Zack seamlessly transitioned back to his original aspiration, demonstrating resilience and adaptability. His story is a testament to the power of stepping outside one's comfort zone and finding meaning in contributing to a greater cause, even if it's not in the way initially envisioned. This episode challenges listeners to reflect on their own willingness to engage in hard, meaningful activities — especially when they don't align perfectly with personal desires. Zack's experience underscores the importance of embracing opportunities to serve and lead, even when they require sacrifice or compromise. As he prepares for the physically and emotionally demanding task of running multiple days with his team, Zack exemplifies how persistence, teamwork, and a commitment to something larger than oneself can lead to unexpected growth and fulfillment. Tune in for an inspiring conversation about grit, adaptability, and finding purpose in every role you play. Episode Sponsors: VM Merch Go Pills -- use "VM15" at checkout for 15% off your order.

“ When you give yourself permission to explore your identity, you will start to realize that being an athlete is an important part of who you are, but it is not all that you are. When you develop other areas of your identity, it can sometimes open up your performance in ways that were never available to you before.”   As we discuss frequently in The Injured Athletes Club, injury brings a rollercoaster of emotions. But often, one of the most destabilizing feelings is the question of identity: Who am I without my sport?   In this host-ful episode, Coach Carrie explains how common it is for injured athletes to realize they haven't worked on developing any other parts of themselves—or any other coping mechanisms—beyond their sport.    A strong athletic identity can be an asset for performance and for injury recovery, but an all-encompassing one can stand in the way of reaching your potential. Coach Carrie explains some of the ways to tell the difference. And, she offers both permission and a blueprint for finding the parts of you that will allow you to truly shine, inside your sport and out.   Resources/links: Coach Carrie and Cindy Go FAR Pro Runner Millie Paladino: Climbing the Mountain of Recovery Professional Soccer Player Civana Kuhlmann: Strength in Vulnerability Gymnast and Personal Trainer Mia Lazarewicz: On Identity, Hope, and Humanity   A huge thank you to LEVER Movement, the exclusive sponsor of season 8 of The Injured Athletes Club podcast!

Ralph welcomes journalist Chris Hedges to talk about his new book "A Genocide Foretold: Reporting on Survival and Resistance in Occupied Palestine." Then, Ralph speaks to David Swanson of World BEYOND War about what his organization is doing to resist this country's casual acceptance of being constantly at war. Finally, Ralph checks in with our resident constitutional scholar Bruce Fein.Chris Hedges is a Pulitzer Prize-winning journalist, who spent nearly two decades as a foreign correspondent in Central America, the Middle East, Africa and the Balkans. He is the host of The Chris Hedges Report, and he is a prolific author— his latest book is A Genocide Foretold: Reporting on Survival and Resistance in Occupied Palestine.We not only blocked the effort by most countries on the globe to halt the genocide or at least censure Israel to the genocide, but of course have continued to sendbillions of dollars in weapons and to shut down critics within the United States… And that sends a very, very ominous message to the global south, especiallyas the climate breaks down, that these are the kind of draconian murderous measuresthat we will employ.Chris HedgesIt's a very, very ominous chapter in the history of historic Palestine. In some ways, far worse even than the 1948 Nakba (or “Catastrophe”) that saw massacres carried out against Palestinians in their villages and 750,000 Palestinians displaced. What we're watching now is probably the worst catastrophe to ever beset the Palestinian people.Chris HedgesIt's a bit like attacking somebody for writing about Auschwitz and not giving the SS guards enough play to voice their side. We're writing about a genocide and, frankly, there isn't a lot of nuance. There's a lot of context (which is in the book). But I expect either to be blanked out or attacked because lifting up the voices of Palestinians is something at this point within American society that is considered by the dominant media platforms and those within positions of power to be unacceptable.Chris HedgesIt eventually comes down to us, the American people. And it's not just the Middle East. It's a sprawling empire with hundreds of military bases, sapping the energy of our public budgets and of our ability to relate in an empathetic and humanitarian way to the rest of the world.Ralph NaderDavid Swanson is an author, activist, journalist, radio host and Nobel Peace Prize nominee. He is executive director of World BEYOND War and campaign coordinator for RootsAction. His books include War Is A Lie and When the World Outlawed War.The biggest scandal of the past two days in the United States is not government officials secretly discussing plans for mass killing, for war making, but how they did it on a group chat. You can imagine if they were talking about blowing up buildings in the United States, at least the victims would get a little mention in there.David SwansonThe Democrats are the least popular they've been. They're way less popular than the Republicans because some of the Republicans' supporters actually support the horrendous behavior they're engaged in. Whereas Democrats want somebody to try anything, anything at all, and you're not getting it.David SwansonYou know how many cases across the world across the decades in every hospital and health center there are of PTSD or any sort of injury from war deprivation? Not a one. Not a single one, ever. People survive just fine. And people do their damnedest to stay out of it, even in the most warmongering nations in the world. People try their very hardest to stay out of war personally, because it does great damage.David SwansonBruce Fein is a Constitutional scholar and an expert on international law. Mr. Fein was Associate Deputy Attorney General under Ronald Reagan and he is the author of Constitutional Peril: The Life and Death Struggle for Our Constitution and Democracy, and American Empire: Before the Fall.If there were really an attorney general who was independent, they would advise the President, “You can't make these threats. They are the equivalent of extortion.”Bruce FeinVigorous Public Interest Law DayApril 1, 2025 12:00 pm - 4:00 pm at Harvard Law School the Harvard Plaintiffs' Law Association is hosting Vigorous Public Interest Law Day with opening remarks by Ralph Nader. The program will feature highly relevant presentations and group discussions with some of the nation's most courageous public interest lawyers including Sam Levine, Bruce Fein, Robert Weissman, Joan Claybrook, and Pete Davis, to name a few. More information here.News 3/26/251. Starting off this week with some good news, Families for Safe Streets reports the Viriginia Assembly has passed HB2096, also known as the Stop Super Speeders bill. If enacted, this bill would allow would judges to “require drivers convicted of extreme speeding offenses to install Intelligent Speed Assistance (ISA) technology in their vehicles, automatically limiting their speed to the posted limit.” According to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration or NHTSA, established by Ralph Nader, speeding was responsible for 12,151 deaths in 2022 and is a contributing factor in the skyrocketing number of pedestrians killed by automobiles which hit a 40-year high in 2023, per NPR.2. In more troubling auto safety news AP reports NHTSA has ordered a new recall on nearly all Cybertrucks. This recall centers on an exterior panel that can “detach while driving, creating a dangerous road hazard for other drivers, [and] increasing the risk of a crash.” This panel, called a “cant rail assembly,” is attached with a glue that is vulnerable to “environmental embrittlement,” per NHTSA. This is the eighth recall of the vehicles since they hit the road just one year ago.3. At the same time, the Democratic-controlled Delaware state legislature has passed a bill to “award…Musk $56 billion, shield corporate executives from liability, and strip away voting power from shareholders,” reports the Lever. According to this report, written before the law passed, the bill would “set an extremely high bar for plaintiffs to obtain internal company documents, records, and communications — the core pieces of evidence needed to build a lawsuit against a company.” On the other hand, “Corporate executives and investors with a controlling stake in a firm would no longer be required to hold full shareholder votes on various transactions in which management has a direct conflict of interest.” As this piece notes, this bill was backed by a pressure campaign led by Musk and his lawyers that began with a Delaware Chancery Court ruling that jeopardized his $56 billion compensation package. In retaliation, Musk threatened to lead a mass exodus of corporations from the state. Instead of calling his bluff, the state legislature folded, likely beginning a race to the bottom among other corporate-friendly states that will strip anyone but the largest shareholders of any remaining influence on corporate decision making.4. Speaking of folding under pressure, Reuters reports Columbia University will “acquiesce” to the outrageous and unprecedented demands of the Trump administration. These include a new mask ban on campus, and placing the school's Middle Eastern, South Asian, and African Studies department – along with the Center for Palestine Studies –under academic receivership for at least five years. By caving to these demands, the University hopes the administration will unfreeze $400 million in NIH grants they threatened to withhold. Reuters quotes historian of education, Professor Jonathan Zimmerman, who decried this as “The government…using the money as a cudgel to micromanage a university,” and Todd Wolfson, president of the American Association of University Professors, who called the administration's demands “arguably the greatest incursion into academic freedom, freedom of speech and institutional autonomy that we've seen since the McCarthy era.”5. The authoritarianism creeping through higher education doesn't end there. Following the chilling disappearing of Mahmoud Khalil, the Trump administration has begun deploying the same tactic against more students for increasingly minor supposed offenses. First there was Georgetown post-doc student Badar Khan Suri, originally from India, who “had been living in Virginia for nearly three years when the police knocked on his door on the evening of 17 March and arrested him,” per the BBC. His crime? Being married to the daughter of a former advisor to Ismail Haniyeh, who in 2010 left the Gaza government and “started the House of Wisdom…to encourage peace and conflict resolution in Gaza.” A court has blocked Suri's deportation. Then there is Rumeysa Ozturk, a PhD student at Tufts who was on her way home from an Iftar dinner when she was surrounded and physically restrained by plainclothes agents on the street, CNN reports. Video of this incident has been shared widely. Secretary of State Marco Rubio supposedly “determined” that Ozturk's alleged activities would have “potentially serious adverse foreign policy consequences and would compromise a compelling U.S. foreign policy interest.” These activities? Co-writing a March 2024 op-ed in the school paper which stated “Credible accusations against Israel include accounts of deliberate starvation and indiscriminate slaughter of Palestinian civilians and plausible genocide.” The U.S. has long decried regimes that use secret police to suppress dissident speech. Now it seems it has become one.6. Yet the Trump administration is not only using deportations as a blunt object to punish pro-Palestine speech, it is also using it to go after labor rights activists. Seattle public radio station KUOW reports “Farmworker activist and union leader Alfredo Juarez Zeferino, known…as ‘Lelo,' was taken into custody by [ICE].” A farmworker and fellow activist Rosalinda Guillén is quoted saying “[Lelo] doesn't have a criminal record…they stopped him because of his leadership, because of his activism.” She added “I think that this is a political attack.” Simultaneously, the Washington Post reports “John Clark, a Trump-appointed Labor Department official, directed the agency's Bureau of International Labor Affairs…to end all of its grants.” These cuts are “expected to end 69 programs that have allocated more than $500 million to combat child labor, forced labor and human trafficking, and to enforce labor standards in more than 40 countries.”7. All of these moves by the Trump administration are despicable and largely unprecedented, but even they are not as brazen as the assault on the twin pillars of the American social welfare system: Social Security and Medicare. Social Security is bearing the brunt of the attacks at the moment. First, AP reported that Elon Musk's DOGE planned to cut up to 50% of the Social Security Administration staff. Then, the Washington Post reported that the administration planned to force millions of seniors to submit claims in person rather than via phone. Now the administration is announcing that they are shifting Social Security payments from paper checks to prepaid debit cards, per Axios. Nearly half a million seniors still receive their payments via physical checks. These massive disruptions in Social Security have roiled seniors across the nation, many of whom are Republican Trump supporters, and they are voicing their frustration to their Republican elected officials – who in turn are chafing at being cut out of the loop by Musk. NBC reports Sen. Chuck Grassley of Iowa, chairman of the Senate Finance subcommittee on Social Security, said “he had not been told ahead of time about DOGE's moves at the agency.” Senators Steve Daines and Bill Cassidy have echoed this sentiment. And, while Social Security takes center stage, Medicare is next in line. Drop Site is out with a new report on how Trump's nominee to oversee the Center for Medicare and Medicaid Services – Dr. Oz – could shift millions of seniors from traditional Medicare to the insurer-controlled Medicare Advantage system. Medicare and Social Security have long been seen as the “third rail” of American politics, meaning politicians who try to tamper with those programs meet their political demise. This is the toughest test yet of whether that remains true.8. The impact of Oscar winning documentary No Other Land continues to reverberate, a testament to the power of its message. In Miami Beach, Mayor Steven Meiner issued a draft resolution calling for the city to terminate its lease agreement with O Cinema, located at Old City Hall, simply for screening the film. Deadline reports however that he was forced to back down. And just this week, co-director of the film Hamdan Ballal was reportedly “lynched” by Israeli settlers in his West Bank village, according to co-director Yuval Abraham, an anti-occupation Jewish Israeli journalist. The Guardian reports “the settlers beat him in front of his home and filmed the assault…he was held at an army base, blindfolded, for 24 hours and forced to sleep under a freezing air conditioner.” Another co-director, Basel Adra of Masafer Yatta, told the AP “We came back from the Oscars and every day since there is an attack on us…This might be their revenge on us for making the movie. It feels like a punishment.” Stunningly, it took days for the Academy of Motion Pictures to issue a statement decrying the violence and even then, the statement was remarkably tepid with no mention of Palestine at all, only condemning “harming or suppressing artists for their work or their viewpoints.”9. In some more positive news, Zohran Mamdani – the Democratic Socialist candidate for Mayor of New York City – has maxed out donations, per Gothamist. Mamdani says he has raised “more than $8 million with projected matching funds from about 18,000 donors citywide and has done so at a faster rate than any campaign in city history.” Having hit the public financing cap this early, Mamdani promised to not spend any more of the campaign raising money and instead plans to “build the single largest volunteer operation we've ever seen in the New York City's mayor's race.” Witnessing a politician asking supporters not to send more money is a truly one-of-a-kind moment. Recent polling shows Mamdani in second place, well behind disgraced former Governor Andrew Cuomo and well ahead of his other rivals, including incumbent Mayor Eric Adams, per CBS. However, Mamdani remains unknown to large numbers of New Yorkers, meaning his ceiling could be much higher. Plenty of time remains before the June mayoral election.10. Finally, in an extremely bizarre story, Columbia Professor Anthony Zenkus reports “Robert Ehrlich, millionaire founder of snack food giant Pirate's Booty…tried to take over the sleepy Long Island town of Sea Cliff.” Zenkus relays that Ehrlich waged a “last minute write-in campaign for mayor in which he only received 62 votes - then declared himself mayor anyway.” Though Ehrlich only received 5% of the vote, he “stormed the village hall with an entourage, declaring himself the duly-elected mayor, screaming that he was there to dissolve the entire town government and that he alone had the power to form a new government.” Ehrlich claimed the election was “rigged” and thus invalid, citing as evidence “One of my supporters voted three times. Another one voted four times…” which constitutes a confession to election fraud. Zenkus ends this story by noting that Ehrlich was “escorted out by police.” It's hard to make heads or tails of this story, but if nothing else it indicates that these petty robber barons are simply out of control – believing they can stage their own mini coup d'etats. And after all, why shouldn't they think so, when one of their ilk occupies perhaps the most powerful office in the history of the world. Bad omens all around.This has been Francesco DeSantis, with In Case You Haven't Heard. Get full access to Ralph Nader Radio Hour at www.ralphnaderradiohour.com/subscribe
