On this episode of Without a Country, Corinne Fisher dives deep into the rapidly developing Cornell University gang r4pe case, including new reporting that the Tompkins County District Attorney reopened the criminal investigation, revelations about what Jane Doe actually told campus police, the DA's claim that he never saw a transcript in which she explicitly said she was r4ped, disturbing fraternity group-chat messages including “shop still open," confirmation that the alleged assault was never reported to the Ithaca Police Department, and the impact New York's Voluntary Intoxication Exclusion has had on the case. Corinne also reads firsthand accounts from listeners about SA culture at elite colleges and an anonymous Cornell employee's account of how the university has handled the scandal internally. Before that, Corinne and Mike discuss two “Enemies of the State,” including Michael Tracey's attempt to identify the Cornell Jane Doe and viral victim-blaming rage bait surrounding the case; read listener mail about a positive surrogacy experience; examine warnings from AI researchers and anonymous industry insiders about the race to build increasingly powerful AI systems; and close with updates on the Nolan Wells death investigation, Lindsay Clancy's case following her mistrial, and the extraordinary last-minute legal battle over Tennessee death-row prisoner Christa Pike as the Supreme Court clears the way for what would be Tennessee's first execution of a woman in more than 200 years.LOS ANGELES!

Teaming with a service disabled veteran owned small business is one of the fastest paths into VA hospital contracting for small businesses locked out by the executive order requiring SDVOSB set-asides. In this episode, Eric Coffie breaks down the exact approach he used on both sides of the teaming table, from finding the right SDVOSB partner to structuring subcontracting, teaming, and joint venture relationships that grow both firms. If you're a capable contractor watching VA opportunities pass you by, this is the playbook. How the VA's SDVOSB set-aside rule works and why non-veteran contractors need a teaming strategy to access that work The "date before you marry" framework: start as a subcontractor, move to teaming, and build toward a joint venture over time Why starting with a small unbondable project (under the bonding threshold) protects both partners and proves the relationship works How to make the partnership mutually beneficial so your SDVOSB partner commits exclusively instead of shopping other teammates Free and low-cost resources for vetting agreements, including SBDCs, APEX/PTACs, and veteran business organizations, before spending money on attorneys EPISODE CHAPTERS: 0:00 - Why SDVOSB teaming opens VA hospital contracts 0:44 - Mavis asks how to use veteran certifications 1:13 - Rule of two and VA set-aside requirements explained 2:11 - Finding the right SDVOSB partner to team with 3:11 - Making the teaming relationship mutually beneficial 4:09 - Vetting your partner and starting with small projects 5:08 - How Eric built his own team through a teaming deal 6:36 - The woman owned firm that grew through partnership 7:34 - Understanding affiliation rules under FAR regulations 8:31 - Free resources and how to vet attorneys for agreements Mindy gives you the federal opportunities, agency signals, recompete intel, and pursuit briefs that tell you not just what contracts exist, but which ones to chase and how to win them.

In this episode, we kick things off by examining a fierce regulatory battle over proposed non-compliance penalties that could allow engine makers to simply pay fines rather than meet the drastically tighter nitrogen oxide standard taking effect in 2027. Daimler Truck North America is publicly resisting this controversial loophole, warning that PACCAR's suggestion of treating 6,000–7,000 per-engine penalties as an acceptable business strategy undermines Congressional intent and threatens the investments made by companies that developed compliant technology over the past decade. Next, we explore the freight technology sector where a potential blockbuster divestiture remains in limbo as Trimble keeps multiple interested parties on the hook for its transportation and logistics business. Speaking at the company's Insight 2026 conference, CEO Rob Painter offered no timetable or clarity on whether the strategic review with Goldman Sachs will result in a sale, spinoff, or no transaction at all, even as Trimble continues investing aggressively in new AI-powered tools like Arc Agent. Finally, we discuss a critical regulatory gap that has U.S. port-entry fees targeting China-linked vessels scheduled to resume in November despite last week's broader trade truce extension through January 2027. The discrepancy leaves liner operators and cargo interests in limbo, awaiting formal USTR action to align the maritime-fee suspension with the newly extended diplomatic accord, as no such notice had been issued as of September 28.

Jason Hartman and guest Michael Zuber critique the proposed Home Ownership Promise Act, a government initiative designed to provide first-time homebuyers with up to $50,000 in grants via a five-to-one savings match. They argue that while the program is framed as a solution for housing affordability, it actually risks inflating home prices by stimulating demand without addressing the underlying lack of housing supply. Hartman contends that such subsidies primarily benefit existing asset owners and wealthy investors who can exploit loopholes, ultimately leaving the intended beneficiaries in a worse financial position. Beyond policy analysis, the conversation shifts into a broader debate regarding political ideologies, the history of fiat currency, and the track records of various U.S. presidents. They conclude by highlighting the systemic issues within real estate syndications and the ongoing challenges of the current frozen housing market.

Proposition 45 on the November ballot would reform the California Environmental Quality Act, also known as CEQA. Proponents argue the measure would help with the state's affordability crisis by speeding up housing construction. However, public polling shows support for the measure has tanked in the last few months as critics argue the measure would make it easier to build data centers, which are deeply unpopular with voters. Marisa talks to Jennifer Barrera, CEO of the California Chamber of Commerce, a group leading the campaign in support of Prop. 45. Tune in next week to hear the opposition side of the initiative.

The Howard Jarvis Taxpayers Association is fighting to protect California taxpayers from a loophole that's been exploited by special interests to raise taxes without a two-thirds vote. This episode delves into the world of Prop 43, a measure that aims to close this loophole and restore the original intent of Prop 13. Join Susan Shelley and Legislative Director Scott Kaufman as they discuss the intricacies of the ballot measure and its implications for California taxpayers.Prop 43 is a crucial measure that seeks to limit tax increases by requiring a two-thirds vote for local special taxes, regardless of how they're put on the ballot. The current loophole allows governments to use citizen initiatives to raise taxes without meeting the usual two-thirds requirement. This has led to a situation where taxpayers are being asked to foot the bill for services they may not even want or need. The Howard Jarvis Taxpayers Association is fighting to close this loophole and ensure that taxpayers have a say in how their money is spent.The conversation also touches on the importance of Prop 13 and the need to protect it from further erosion. The association is working tirelessly to educate voters about the ballot measures and the impact they'll have on their wallets. With the November election just around the corner, it's essential to stay informed and make your voice heard.Join the conversation and learn more about Prop 43 and its significance for California taxpayers.

In this episode of Brake Check on FreightWaves TV, host Charles Gracey is joined by Lewie Pugh (Executive Vice President of OOIDA) & Dan Lindsey of the Broker Carrier Summit, to tackle the growing issue of "Chameleon Carriers" in the trucking industry. They dive deep into how bad actors exploit systemic loopholes—changing DOT numbers and carrier identities for a nominal fee to dodge regulatory oversight, enforcement, and safety accountability—and what this means for highway safety, honest truck drivers, and industry standards. Key topics discussed include: The anatomy of a Chameleon Carrier empire and how easy it is to exploit current regulations. The critical need for stricter carrier accountability, real training standards, and audited CDL schools. Legislative efforts, including the SAFE Act and new FMCSA registration updates. Why drivers often end up taking the fall for predatory carrier practices and poor oversight. Follow the Brake Check Podcast Other FreightWaves Shows Learn more about your ad choices.

Rent To Retirement: Building Financial Independence Through Turnkey Real Estate Investing
Sept. 16, 2026- We highlight legislation standardizing the criminal penalties for commercial sexual exploitation to eliminate a loophole involving certain minors that are victimized. Our guest is Rebecca Zipkin, vice president of policy & programs for World Without Exploitation.
Rent To Retirement: Building Financial Independence Through Turnkey Real Estate Investing
The "Rent Threshold" rule creates a dynamic where tenants can systematically manipulate unpaid balances while landlords bear the financial and legal fallout. Tenants can exploit the rent threshold by making calculated partial payments or withholding just enough rent to stay below the eviction limit. Meanwhile, landlords may go months without receiving full rent while still paying mortgages, taxes, insurance, and maintenance costs. Critics argue the policy shifts the financial burden from nonpaying tenants to property owners...

Send us Fan MailCuraleaf's $31.8M Contract Verdict Tossed, Schedule III Can't Be Enjoined, and Regulators Crack DownThe hosts discuss cannabis legalization and business news, arguing that federal marijuana rescheduling to Schedule III is inevitable and noting a court denial of injunctive relief seeking to block it, with briefing planning due by October 9 and an amicus request granted. They cover a roughly $31.8 million marijuana contract verdict tied to an output contract dispute that was moved to federal court and dismissed on federal illegality grounds, warning that federal courts remain effectively closed to marijuana contract enforcement even after rescheduling, including for medical contracts. Additional topics include Washington State banning strain names that mimic children's candy (e.g., “Runts,” “Skittles,” “Gushers”), Colorado regulators' handling of a harmful edible product, limited cannabis banking participation per GAO data, dormant Commerce Clause splits, CDC overdose-death cannabis detection context, Nebraska's medical cannabis laws upheld, and the hosts' dispensary operations, local medical sales and lounge efforts, and business-building plans.Support the showGet our newsletter: https://bit.ly/3VEn9vu
In the wake of state-level abortion restrictions, a critical federal battleground has emerged over the distribution of chemical abortion drugs like mifepristone. While individual states have passed legislation to protect the unborn and regulate procedure standards, federal policies governing telehealth prescribing and mail-order delivery allow these drugs to bypass state lines entirely. Through out-of-state "shield laws" and unmonitored postal delivery, pregnant women can obtain high-risk medications without undergoing in-person medical evaluations, ultrasounds, or screening for dangerous complications such as ectopic pregnancies. Key legal battles—such as Louisiana v. FDA—are now testing whether state governments have the legal authority to enforce their own life-affirming laws against federal regulatory policies and out-of-state entities. With medication now accounting for the majority of abortions nationwide, the future of state-level protections depends heavily on how courts and federal regulators handle the mail-order loophole. Anne Schlafly, Chairman of Eagle Forum, is scheduled to join me to discuss the issue.Following the events of January 6, 2021, the U.S. Department of Justice launched the largest prosecution effort in American history. However, fundamental questions surrounding prosecutorial overreach, statutory misuse, and judicial accountability continue to spark intense national debate. Central to this discussion is the application of 18 U.S.C. § 1512(c)(2)—an obstruction statute originally intended for corporate financial evidence tampering—which prosecutors weaponized to secure massive felony exposure against non-violent defendants before being heavily restricted by the U.S. Supreme Court. Scheduled to join me, John Strand, author of Patriot Plea: The J6 Journey of a Political Prisoner in the Divided States of America, offers a firsthand perspective on the system. After serving 366 days in federal prison and enduring extended solitary confinement, Strand outlines how aggressive sentencing pressure, solitary isolation, and systemic double standards within the District of Columbia court system were used to compel plea agreements. While executive pardons have provided relief to affected individuals, key structural questions remain unanswered regarding how these cases were handled, whether court officers can be held accountable for constitutional violations, and what reforms the Justice Department must enact to prevent future political prosecutions.Five years after the fall of Kabul, the geopolitical and human aftershocks of America's withdrawal from Afghanistan continue to reverberate. Released by Palladium Pictures in collaboration with WSJ Opinion Docs, the documentary The Path to Zero takes viewers inside the final weeks of America's longest war. The film reconstructs the strategic decisions that led from the order for a total troop drawdown down "to zero" to the rapid collapse of the Afghan government, the withdrawal from Bagram Airfield, and the desperate, chaotic airlift at Hamid Karzai International Airport.Through candid, eyewitness testimony from military commanders, on-the-ground diplomats, intelligence personnel, Afghan allies, and Marines stationed at the airport perimeter, the film exposes the raw realities of the evacuation. It examines critical moments like the deadly Abbey Gate suicide bombing, the mass evacuation of over 124,000 individuals, and the plight of thousands of loyal Afghan partners who were left behind due to shifting bureaucracy. Beyond policy failures, The Path to Zero confronts the deep "moral injury" borne by service members forced to navigate impossible choices, while questioning why senior leadership has largely avoided accountability for the tragic outcome. Michael Pack, the President and CEO of Palladium Pictures LLC, and producer and director of The Path to Zero, is scheduled to join me to talk about it.

Israel sends the remainders of the tribe of Binyamin to choose wives from the girls of Shilo who go out to dance in the vineyards.

In a single stroke, Ford ended the possibility that a former president would be criminally prosecuted for Watergate—and he did it before Nixon had even been charged with anything.The pardon was, and remains, one of the most controversial exercises of presidential power in American history. Ford defended it as an act of national healing, arguing that a prolonged prosecution of Nixon would keep the country trapped in the trauma of Watergate—that, as he put it, “our long national nightmare” needed to end. Critics were furious, many suspecting a corrupt bargain in which Ford had traded the pardon for the presidency. The decision almost certainly contributed to Ford's narrow loss in the 1976 election. Ford himself later carried in his wallet a passage from the Supreme Court's decision in Burdick v. United States, which held that accepting a pardon carries an imputation of guilt—his answer to those who said Nixon got off scot-free.The significance of September 8, 1974 is that it defined, in the most dramatic possible way, the breadth of the constitutional pardon power. The Constitution gives the president near-total authority to pardon federal offenses, and the Nixon pardon showed just how sweeping that is: it can be granted before charges are filed, for unspecified crimes, over enormous public objection, with no one able to override it. That power—its scope, its potential for abuse, its use to shield allies from accountability—has been very much in our headlines this year, from the January 6 pardons onward. Ford's decision is the towering precedent behind all of it, and the enduring, unresolved question it poses is the one we still argue about: is the pardon power an instrument of mercy and healing, or a tool for placing the powerful beyond the reach of the law?A federal appeals court has upheld the ban on the administration's bid to use a federal immigration database to scrub state voter rolls—another significant ruling in the long-running fight over federal control of elections. In a 2-1 decision, the D.C. Circuit declined to lift a lower court's block on the government using the Department of Homeland Security's SAVE system—that's the Systematic Alien Verification for Entitlements database—to check the citizenship of registered voters. The legal grounds are worth noting because they're a bit unusual. Chief Judge Sri Srinivasan and Judge Robert Wilkins, both Obama appointees, upheld the finding that using SAVE this way likely violates the Social Security Act, because the system exposes millions of Americans' private information, including Social Security data. The court also flagged the accuracy problem we've discussed before: SAVE is error-prone, and relying on it risks flagging actual citizens, forcing them to prove their citizenship or even face cancellation of their registration. Judge Gregory Katsas, a Trump appointee, dissented. The ruling keeps the database off-limits for voter checks ahead of the November 3 midterms. This is a direct continuation of the SAVE fight we covered back in July, and it fits the summer-long pattern—courts repeatedly rebuffing federal efforts to centralize control over voter rolls, and here doing so on a privacy statute rather than the Constitution. The significance is that, once again, and now at the appellate level, the judiciary has said the federal government cannot repurpose a benefits-verification database into an election-policing tool—especially not weeks before an election, and not at the cost of exposing private data and risking the disenfranchisement of eligible citizens. Federal appeals court upholds ban on Trump's bid to use citizenship data for voter checks | ReutersNow for the first half of a double dose of my own work this week—and this one let me put on my data-analyst hat. I did the statistical analysis behind a Bloomberg Tax deep dive into the “Montana license plate” loophole, and the numbers are genuinely startling. Here's the scheme: instead of registering your car—or truck, boat, or private plane—in your home state and paying sales tax and fees, you set up a shell LLC in Montana, which has no sales tax, cheap registration, no emissions testing, and lets you hide behind the company. A registered agent will do it all for you, for around a thousand dollars, and you never have to set foot in Montana. The result is a lot of very expensive vehicles wearing Montana plates in states where their owners actually live. My job was to measure how big this has gotten, and I did it by comparing Montana to its genuinely car-heavy rural neighbors—Idaho, the Dakotas, Wyoming. The headline figure: in 2024, Montana had over 2.4 million registered vehicles but only 879,000 licensed drivers—a ratio of 2.81 vehicles per driver, the highest in the nation and more than double the U.S. average. That implies nearly a million vehicles that can't be explained by geography or economics—and measured against the national average rather than Montana's rural peers, the “excess” balloons to about 1.4 million. Crucially, the pattern tracked the national average until about 2010, and then registrations exploded, up 175% as the registered-agent LLC industry took its pitch online. My simulations put the lost sales-and-use-tax revenue somewhere between $2 billion and $5.1 billion. And states are now fighting back hard: Utah, using its insurance database to cross-check, has flagged as many as 80,000 suspect vehicles and is sending demand letters in waves; California has brought criminal charges; Tennessee indicted a YouTuber who filmed himself torching a Montana-plated Ferrari. The significance is that this sits right on the line between lawful tax avoidance and unlawful tax evasion—and the data suggests an awful lot of people have wandered across it. Utah Takes Montana License Plate Fight to 80,000 Vehicle Owners | Bloomberg TaxAnd for the second half of the double dose—my column for Bloomberg Tax this week—I look at a smaller but wonderfully fixable problem: New York's charitable-giving program is letting donations pile up, undistributed, inside state government. Here's the setup. When New Yorkers file their state income taxes, they can donate part of their refund to various charitable causes through tax “checkoffs.” The giving side actually works—New Yorkers gave $3.8 million this way in fiscal 2025, up from $2.6 million the year before, and I think the moment of a refund is psychologically a great time to give; that $50 feels more like found money than it does weeks later. The problem is what happens next. The state comptroller found $17.5 million sitting undistributed in these funds—the Gifts for Food Banks Fund sitting on more than a million dollars, a volunteer-firefighter and EMS recruitment fund holding more than two million, neither having disbursed a cent since 2023 or 2024. The money is being collected and then stranded inside a state grantmaking bureaucracy. My argument is that the fix is easy: stop routing charitable intent back through the government. Instead of parking donations in state-administered funds, New York should let taxpayers direct their contributions straight to eligible nonprofits—the state maintains a registry of qualifying charities, the taxpayer picks one at filing, and the state's role ends at verifying eligibility and remitting the payment. That turns a grantmaking problem, which needs appropriations and agencies and rules, into a payment-processing problem, which the state already knows how to solve. If lawmakers want to juice giving further, offer a small match on the first $50 or $100. The deeper point is philosophical: the whole justification for favoring charities is that they do public-serving work outside of government—so when you route the giving back through Albany, and the money just sits there, you've defeated the entire purpose. A hungry person doesn't get less hungry waiting for an agency to figure out how to disburse a food-bank fund.

CAPTION 1945 tokyo Oversight Loopholes in Saudi Nuclear DealHenry Sokolski outlines concerns regarding the unclassified but heavily redacted Saudi Arabian nuclear agreement. Government documents printed on September first reveal provisions for uranium enrichment up to twenty percent on Saudi territory. Crucially, the agreement limits atomic inspections to declared sites, presenting a loophole for covert parallel operations. Sokolski also addresses Iran's war crime accusations against the United States following a fatal off-target missile strike near the Strait of Hormuz. He attributes such tragic military targeting errors to outdated intelligence and the misuse of artificial intelligence to accelerate high-stakes decision-making in active war zones. (7)

In a shocking case that raises questions about accountability and the limits of qualified immunity, a Jefferson County canine handler was acquitted after his dog attacked a two-year-old and her father, leaving them with $300,000 in medical debt. This episode delves into the complexities of the law and the implications of a system that seems to prioritize the interests of law enforcement over the rights of citizens. Ross discusses the case with George Brauchler, the 23rd Judicial District District Attorney, who prosecuted the case despite his own reservations about qualified immunity. Brauchler explains the intricacies of the law, which allows canine handlers to claim immunity for actions taken in the performance of their duties, even if those actions result in harm to others. He highlights the need for clarity in the definition of "peace officer duties" and the lack of accountability in the current system. The conversation touches on the concerns of the canine handler community, who fear that any changes to the law could lead to increased liability and lawsuits. Brockler also shares his own thoughts on the case, expressing frustration that the government exploited the law to avoid accountability and left the family with significant medical debt. This episode is a thought-provoking exploration of the complexities of qualified immunity and the need for reform. If you're interested in learning more about this important issue and the implications for citizens and law enforcement, tune in to hear the full conversation.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
Sellers can legally hide foundation cracks and structural damage. Here's how to catch it first.Jeff Emalaba is the founder of InvestFusion and a 20+ year real estate investor and licensed agent in North Carolina. After losing $11,175 on a duplex with hidden foundation and structural issues, he built an AI-powered platform that pulls appraisal reports, inspection history, and government data most tools can't touch, then scores any property go or no go in under 60 seconds.In this episode, Jeff breaks down the "no representation" loophole, the legal mechanism that lets sellers withhold known defects from buyer disclosure documents, and explains why over 40,000 real estate deals collapse every month as a result. He walks through real investor stories, including a single mom who used the platform to land a debt-free duplex, and a $5 million commercial deal that went wrong over a single government tenant. Jeff also addresses a question a lot of listeners have already asked him directly: why this isn't just ChatGPT or Claude with a real estate skin on it, and what's actually happening behind the scenes to pull data that generic AI tools can't access.If you're underwriting a deal right now and something feels off, this episode gives you a framework to know before you wire a dollar.Key topics:The "no representation" loophole and how sellers use it legallyWhy 40,000+ deals collapse every month, and what it costs buyersHow InvestFusion pulls appraisal, inspection, and government dataWhy this isn't "just ChatGPT for real estate"The five inputs behind the platform's go/no-go deal scoreReal investor stories, including Sarah's debt-free duplex and Jeff's own $11K lossGuest bio:Jeff Emalaba is the founder of InvestFusion, a licensed real estate agent in North Carolina, and a 20+ year investor who has closed over $800 million in real estate deals.Links:Special offer for listeners, free red flag cheat sheet and 60-second verdict blueprint: investors.investfusion.coWork With RealDealCrewIf you're already closing deals but your intake, follow-up, or visibility feels inconsistent, here are two ways to go deeper:Take the Deal Intake AssessmentSee how resilient your current operation actually is.→ https://assessment.realdealcrew.comBook a Fit CallIf you want to explore what a fully system-driven deal flow looks like, let's talk.→ https://realdealcrew.com/bookLIKE • SHARE • JOIN • REVIEWWebsiteApple PodcastsYouTubeYouTube MusicSpotifyAmazon MusicFacebookTwitterInstagram
