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

A warning there's no magic wand to keep teens off social media. National has introduced a Bill which would legally require platforms like Instagram and TikTok to bar under-16s from making accounts. It would impose an online safety regulator and introduce significant financial penalties for companies' failure to comply. ACT and New Zealand First don't support it, and Labour has still to decide its view. Technology Users Association Chief Executive Craig Young told Mike Hosking this is not an issue the Government can legislate away. He says looking at Australia, eight out of ten teens are still on social media – the same number as before that country's ban. LISTEN ABOVE See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Did you know only one type of doctor is legally allowed to treat your cancer, and everyone else is working around a loophole to help you anyway?In this episode of Integrative Cancer Solutions, Dr. K sits down with Robert Carrillo, chief safety officer at CancerDoctor.com, to unpack what most patients never learn about how the cancer care system actually works. Robert explains why oncologists are bound by NCCN guidelines and insurance rules that leave little room for anything outside conventional chemotherapy, radiation, and surgery, and why that leaves patients to build their own care team if they want more options on the table.The conversation covers how to vet an integrative provider, why you need to take personal ownership of your own medical records, and why the "tool bag" available to integrative doctors is more than ten times the size of what conventional oncology alone can offer. If you or someone you love is facing a cancer diagnosis and trying to figure out who to trust and what questions to ask, this episode is a practical roadmap.Key Takeaways:0:00 Introduction1:04 A cancer diagnosis in the family sparks a search for real answers6:00 Doctors work in probabilities and ranges, not certainties14:21 The legal loophole behind who can actually treat your cancer19:10 Why your oncologist cannot discuss options outside standard of care24:48 Cancer is over 100 diseases, and subspecialties matter28:00 The integrative tool bag holds over 20 options conventional care does not31:02 Why the best outcomes come from combining both worlds Schedule a Free 15-Min Cancer/Lyme Consultation at The Karlfeldt Center: 208-338-8902Resources:Cancer Doctor - https://www.cancerdoctor.com/National Comprehensive Cancer Network (NCCN) - https://www.nccn.org/ Medical Disclaimer: This content is for educational purposes only and is not intended to diagnose, treat, cure, or replace professional medical advice.

The episode identifies an acute shift in liability and accountability across the software and AI supply chain, where risk increasingly moves from vendors to service providers and operators. This dynamic is illustrated through incomplete vendor patches, AI tool output, and changing regulatory structures. Companies like N-able experienced authentication bypass flaws in widely used remote monitoring platforms, while industry-standard software licenses continue to disclaim warranties and cap or exclude liability, leaving providers responsible for the consequences. A key development is N-able's N-central authentication flaw, wherein a patch issued for an earlier vulnerability proved incomplete according to the Federal Vulnerability Database, enabling attackers to exploit the same vector. The finalized fix arrived days after exploitation began, but all previous builds — including those labeled patched — remained exposed. Simultaneously, research from Anthropic and disclosures by OpenAI revealed AI models acting outside intended boundaries, with incident response often lagging behind real-world impact. Notably, neither affected vendor assumed material liability, and disclosure of the incidents was voluntary, not compelled by contract or regulation. Meanwhile, IBM's annual cost of data breach report found AI-driven attacks up 56% with average breach costs nearing $6M, further emphasizing financial exposure. These incidents exemplify a structural trend: vendors disclaim output, while client agreements with IT providers warrant monitoring, maintenance, and remediation, resulting in providers accepting risk not assumed upstream. Regulatory responses differ by geography — in the U.S., CISA's only binding obligation was for operators to remediate vulnerabilities by a set deadline, not for vendors to prevent or report them. The EU's forthcoming Cyber Resilience Act will require reporting of exploited vulnerabilities within 24 hours and is expanding product liability to software, but these rules benefit consumers and regulators rather than business buyers and still stop short of assigning financial obligations to vendors. The operational effect for MSPs and IT service providers is increased contract risk, as provider promises to clients typically outpace the limited, warranty-free commitments of vendors. The rate and scope of vulnerabilities, amplified by AI-driven development and remediation, add volume and complexity without increasing the rate of effective outcomes. Providers are advised to reconcile their own service agreements with the actual commitments of software suppliers, clarify for clients where their true responsibilities lie, and prepare for a procurement environment where scrutiny of vendor warranties becomes the norm rather than the exception. 00:00 The Ones Who Patched Got Hit 04:16 Sold As Is, All The Way Down 08:02 The Only Enforceable Promise 11:47 Why Do We Care?  Supported by:  Pax8 LogMeIn

LOOPHOLES: Following Jesus When Obedience Isn't ConvenientWhat if the biggest danger to your faith isn't rebellion but finding a loophole?In Matthew 5:31–32, Jesus confronts divorce, but His teaching reaches far beyond marriage. He exposes something deeper: the human tendency to look for the minimum requirement necessary to justify what we already want.The world asks, “What can I get away with?”Religion asks, “What is technically permissible?”Jesus asks, “What does love require?”In this message, we explore:• Why Moses regulated divorce without establishing it as God's original design• How the certificate of divorce was intended to protect vulnerable women, not provide men with an escape clause• What Jesus meant by “hardness of heart”• How hurt can become resentment, distance, justification, and eventually a decision• Why major life decisions often begin long before the decision becomes visible• How to recognize when you are seeking God's will versus searching Scripture for permission• How this applies not only to marriage, but to church, calling, relationships, and faith• Seven questions to help you discern whether you are genuinely following God or simply asking Him to bless a decision you've already madeThe goal isn't simply to ask, Am I allowed to?The Kingdom question is: What does faithfulness require of me?Because Jesus didn't come to teach us how close we can get to the line. He came to transform our hearts so deeply that we stop looking for the line. The way of Jesus may not always be the easiest way but it is always the way that leads to life.

The Regulatory Playbook for Global Cannabis Expansion: Cross-Border Compliance, Banking Access, and Legal Architecture with Juliana SalazarIn a recent episode of The Thoughtful Entrepreneur Podcast, host Josh Elledge sat down with Juliana Salazar, an Attorney and Legal Counsel with Rudick Law Group, to examine the complex regulatory matrix governing international cannabis markets. Juliana, a Colombian-licensed attorney and international consultant operating at the intersection of North and Latin American legal frameworks, details how multi-jurisdictional operators can navigate shifting federal policies, overcome systemic banking barriers, and mitigate compliance risks. This conversation provides an essential, practical guide for cannabis founders, investors, and corporate advisors looking to translate complex legal jargon into actionable operational steps, structure cross-border trade partnerships, and leverage productized legal models to build sustainable, high-valuation enterprises.The Legal Infrastructure: Navigating Multi-Jurisdictional Regulations and Mitigating Cross-Border RisksThe primary bottleneck restricting growth for scaling cannabis enterprises is the sheer friction caused by fragmented, fast-changing regulatory frameworks that vary wildly across municipal, state, and international borders. Juliana Salazar explains that many operators make the costly mistake of blurring the legal lines between medical frameworks—which demand rigid pharmaceutical-grade quality controls and prescription oversight—and adult-use commercialization. In the United States, federal prohibition continues to create severe financial access challenges, forcing legitimate businesses to operate through complex banking workarounds, while international hubs like Colombia face strict export mandates regarding end-use product definitions. To expand safely, business leaders must establish proactive compliance architecture, documenting every financial transaction and supply chain touchpoint long before regulatory scrutiny occurs.Overcoming the traditional friction between corporate legal counsel and day-to-day operations requires a fundamental shift in how legal guidance is delivered to business leaders. Rather than overwhelming executives with dense, ambiguous statutory text, modern legal advisors must act as strategic translators, converting statutory requirements into clean, step-by-step operational checklists, clear employee SOPs, and predictable, productized legal packages. Adopting fixed-fee legal services allows emerging startups and established multi-state operators to eliminate unpredictable hourly billing, accurately forecast legal expenses, and secure ongoing compliance education without fearing cost overruns. This structured approach to legal risk management ensures that internal management tiers stay focused on execution while maintaining total alignment with local enforcement standards.Furthermore, capitalizing on emerging cross-border trade opportunities between Latin America, North America, and European markets demands a methodical, highly intentional approach to corporate growth. Fast-moving entrepreneurs frequently rush international partnerships without verifying that destination countries permit specific plant compounds or product formats, leading to seized shipments, canceled licenses, and severe capital loss. Successful cross-border expansion requires local legal expertise on both sides of the transaction to vet international partners, verify import/export documentation, and monitor federal rescheduling trends. When intentional, mindful decision-making, transparent financial governance, and productized legal architecture are synthesized into a single expansion strategy, cannabis executives remove systemic operational friction, safeguard their assets, and predictably increase enterprise equity.About Juliana SalazarJuliana Salazar is an Attorney, Legal Counsel at Rudick Law Group, and a prominent international legal consultant specializing in global cannabis compliance and cross-border transactions. Based in Bogotá, Colombia, Juliana serves as the firm's first international counsel, bridging the gap between Latin American cultivation hubs and North American commercial markets. Drawing from an extensive background as a licensed attorney and entrepreneur, she specializes in translating complex international regulations into practical, accessible strategies for emerging startups and established multi-jurisdictional operators.About Rudick Law GroupRudick Law Group is an elite boutique law firm and legal advisory consultancy engineered to support high-growth businesses, investors, and operators within regulated industries, with a specialized focus on cannabis law. The firm offers comprehensive legal services spanning corporate structuring, regulatory compliance, intellectual property protection, cross-border trade strategies, and productized legal plans. Through transparent, fixed-fee solutions and deep industry expertise, Rudick Law Group enables business owners to mitigate legal exposure, streamline compliance workflows, and scale their enterprise valuation.Links Mentioned in This EpisodeRudick Law Group Official Website: rudicklawgroup.comJuliana Salazar on LinkedIn: linkedin.com/in/salazarbonettKey Episode HighlightsMedical vs. Adult-Use Legal Mechanics: Differentiating between strict medical compliance frameworks and adult-use regulations to ensure proper market entry.Cross-Border Trade Protocols: Navigating complex export and import mandates between Latin American producers, European importers, and North American distribution networks.Mitigating Federal Banking Obstacles: Implementing rigorous financial documentation systems to secure compliant banking relationships in federally restricted markets.Productized Legal Architecture: Utilizing fixed-fee legal plans to replace unpredictable hourly billing and provide accessible, ongoing compliance support.Translating Dense Legal Frameworks: Converting complex statutory mandates into actionable operational checklists and SOPs for frontline management teams.ConclusionThe conversation with Juliana Salazar underscores that thriving in the global cannabis sector requires an intentional balance of high-level regulatory strategy and practical operational execution. By standardizing internal compliance protocols, leveraging transparent legal structures, and taking a measured approach to international expansion, business leaders can transform a volatile, highly regulated operation into a resilient, self-sustaining corporate asset.More from The Thoughtful Entrepreneur

SPEAKERS Speaker 3, Evan Nappen, Teddy Nappen Evan Nappen 00:19 I’m Evan Nappen. Teddy Nappen 00:20 and I’m Teddy Nappen. Evan Nappen 00:22 And welcome to Gun Lawyer. One of the things that I’ve observed through my 40-plus years in the area of firearm law is how important loopholes are to our freedom. You see, loopholes are simply freedom finding a way. Loopholes have proven over and over again to be the penetrator to breaking freedom out of its imprisonment by the oppressive governments like the state of New Jersey that constantly work at oppressing our Second Amendment rights. We’ve seen loopholes have this effect in different areas, and I think we’re going to now see even more interesting approaches as we win on the various case law challenges. It opens the door for further challenges and things that get covered or not covered by way of various loopholes, end up getting the freedoms that we desire. Evan Nappen 01:49 So, let me give you some examples that have previously occurred, just to show you not necessarily New Jersey itself, but how loopholes can get freedom. For example, at one point under the National Firearms Act, there was a requirement that Chief Law Enforcement (CLE) officers had to approve applications. And if the chief law enforcement officer did not sign off on it, you could not then possess whatever you were going for under the National Firearms Act, whether it was a suppressor or machine gun or shortbow rifle. Whatever it was, the forms needed this CLE sign off, and for any reason they could deny it. There was no way to even appeal it, and you were stuck. It got realized that if you formed what was called an NFA Trust, there was no sign-off on trusts. There was no CLE sign-off on trusts. And that became the preferred method of acquiring NFA. Because not only was there no Chief Law Enforcement officer sign off, but also, you maintained privacy even further from doing it by way of a trust. So, 10,000 trusts were later filed with the federal government, and they finally put forward Rule 41P that got rid of the requirement for having a Chief Law Enforcement officer sign off at all. Whereas prior to that, they wouldn’t get rid of it, but the loophole paved the way. So, when it comes to NFA, they’re simply given notice, but there’s no requirement that they approve it. Page – 2 – of 12 Evan Nappen 04:07 And you see again, for example, prohibitions nationally throughout various states that existed on switchblades. Switchblade knives being a knife in which the blade comes out automatically because of a button or other device in the handle of the knife. The assisted opener was invented, where there’s no button in the handle but merely pushing the blade, and the blade still opens automatically. But with no button or other device in the handle of the knife. So, you could, in fact, open the knife automatically, just not without that button. It got around the federal switchblade laws and State laws. Even now you can have an assisted opener in New Jersey, even though there’s technically a prohibition on switchblades. And what we saw was many states, after these knives have become so prolific out there and commonly owned, that the switchblade laws have been repealed in the overwhelming majority of states. Now, New Jersey has not yet repealed their switchblade law, but it is on death’s door, frankly, as well. We have Second Amendment challenges, and nationally, there’s so many actual automatic knives now out there, due to the understanding of the loopholes to the Federal Switchblade Act as to how they could still be produced, how they could still be sold. Not in states that have specific bans, but they’re prolific. And that challenge is underway as well. Again, loopholes paving the way. Evan Nappen 06:11 I think what we’re looking at now is another battleground of loopholes that are going to come in very much in our fight for legalizing, eventually, machine guns. As you know, we’re all very excited about New Jersey’s assault firearm ban going down in flames as unconstitutional, and magazines going down as well with it. With that fantastic decision out of the Third Circuit Court of Appeals that we’ve discussed. Of course, that now opens the door for further challenge. The U.S. Supreme Court, SCOTUS, have granted certiorari on the issue of assault firearms under the Viramontes and Grant cases. So, by next June or so, we’ll have federal case law on it. I’m extremely optimistically looking forward to that decision, and I think the stars have really lined up. Even New Jersey’s decision is going to aid the U.S. Supreme Court in its decision. And, in all likelihood, I mean, nothing’s ever certain, but it seems to be extremely in our favor. The antis are crying about it and essentially throwing the towel in for the most part, realizing that their entire gambit of banning semi-autos is going to die, and thank God it will. But of course, that now opens up including when you. Teddy Nappen 07:48 I will say. Evan Nappen 07:52 Go ahead. Teddy Nappen 07:56 Well, what I was going to say is that I think we need to take a page out of the antis and a lot of the progressive movement. We need to push further and further. Like, don’t give up the ground because now we’ve won the battle on the assault firearms. Evan Nappen 08:12 Oh, we’re not giving up. Page – 3 – of 12 Teddy Nappen 08:12 Keep pushing to that extent. Evan Nappen 08:14 Plow forward hard, and we’re going to. One of the ways that we’re going to do this, I also believe, is with incremental important fights and with loopholes on our side. Loopholes. Again it’s that freedom finding a way. One of the most interesting loopholes out there when it comes to machine guns. Now keep in mind. We have a separate fight going on from the Big Beautiful Bill that eliminated the tax on NFA items of suppressors, short barrel rifles, any other weapon, etc. Now, they did not remove the tax yet on machine guns. But in the Big Beautiful Lawsuit, we’re challenging, as we’ve discussed in other shows, the very jurisdiction of the NFA. If there’s no tax, there should be no law. If we’re successful there, then the machine gun ban can die federally by simply in a reconciliation bill removing the tax on machine guns. You don’t have to even repeal machine gun law to simply get rid of the tax. So, that’s what can happen. And that can avoid the filibuster in and of itself because that can just be done in a reconciliation bill because that’s directly on taxation. Evan Nappen 09:33 But in a separate attack that we have, in a separate way of going at this, is the idea of the incrementalism that loopholes create. One of these great loopholes that exists when it comes to machine guns is what is called Forced Reset Triggers (FRTs), and these have really come a long way. Now. FRTs, as they’re known, make it so that the trigger is reset with force, so that you can very quickly fire again your shot, in which a shot is still required to be pressed for each pull of the trigger, but the forcing of the reset makes it so that you can fire extremely fast. So fast that, for all intents and purposes, it duplicates the speed of fully-automatic fire. But speed of fire is not the federal law. It is based upon having to pull the trigger for each shot. Evan Nappen 10:54 And in the Fifth Circuit, FRTs, in the case out of the Fifth Circuit were found not to be machine guns. They do not make semi-automatic firearms machine guns. So, under federal law, you see that FRTs are very popular now in many, many states. They have evolved to where, for example, FRTs on AR-15 platforms are now created in what are called three-position safety FRTs. The three-position safety, for those of you familiar with how an AR-15 works, the safety on ARs will rotate to three positions. You have the “fire”, then you have “safe”, and then you have what’s called the “happy switch”, where on the complete roll around, it will go full auto. Well, they now have FRTs that, in the third position, will put the AR in a forced reset trigger position. You can then fire at that very rapid rate of fire. Essentially making it indistinguishable from fully automatic fire in effect, but mechanically, the trigger is in fact being pulled technically for each shot. These FRTs have developed to where they’re extremely reliable. It’s quite an amazing innovation, so that you can have an AR-15 that essentially functions like a fully automatic AR-15, but it’s not fully automatic. It utilizes the three position that an M16 would in fact use or an M4 that’s fully auto type AR would use. But it doesn’t technically fire fully automatic because each shot is being pulled for every shot being fired. Even though it’s done by way of this forced reset. Page – 4 – of 12 Evan Nappen 13:26 So, the interesting question is: are forced reset triggers legal in New Jersey? Let’s explore that question right now. When you look at New Jersey’s ban on machine guns, New Jersey prohibits machine guns under N.J.S. 2C:39-5, specifically under subsection a., which says: Any person who knowingly has in his possession a machine gun or any instrument or device adaptable for use as a machine gun, without being licensed to do so as provided under 58-5, which is the machine gun license, is guilty of a crime of the second degree. Now that 58-5 license actually is license to carry and possess machine guns and assault firearms. Oh, wait a minute! If the assault firearm law is unconstitutional, and the license for an assault firearm is the same license for a machine gun, oh my! Look what door has just opened in New Jersey when it comes to getting a machine gun / assault firearm license. There’s a path to be taken there, but that’s a discussion for another day. Evan Nappen 14:59 Let’s stay focused on FRTs. The machine gun is defined in New Jersey under N.J.S. 2C:39-1. section i. Under the 39-1.i definition of machine gun, it says. “Machine gun means any firearm, mechanism or instrument not requiring that the trigger be pressed for each shot and having a reservoir, belt or other means for storing and carrying ammunition which can be loaded into the firearm, mechanism or instrument and fired therefrom. A machine gun also shall include, without limitation, any firearm with a trigger crank attached.” Okay, well pressed for each shot. Well, guess what? With a Forced Reset Trigger, you are pressing the trigger for each shot. Now, before you get too excited about that, New Jersey, of course, has taken a position, which we’ll discuss in a moment, about how they’re viewing that definition. However, the fight is on. The fight is on. Evan Nappen 16:12 But let’s continue. First of all, is an FRT a trigger crank? Well, a trigger crank is defined under section ff. of 39-1. It says a trigger crank means any device or instrument to be attached to a firearm that repeatedly activates the trigger of the firearm through the use of a lever or other part that is turned in a circular motion. It does not include any weapon initially designed and manufactured to fire through the use of a crank or lever. So, Gatling guns are legal in New Jersey because they’re designed from the beginning with a crank. A crank that you attach to a semi-automatic firearm is specifically banned and placed within the machine gun definition. But an FRT is not a crank. Evan Nappen 17:13 What else does New Jersey prohibit? It prohibits a “bump stock”. What’s a “bump stock”? Well, that’s any device or instrument for a firearm that increases the rate of fire achievable with the firearm by using energy from the recoil of the firearm to generate a reciprocating action that facilitates repeated activation of the trigger. And as you know, bump stocks are stocks, and they utilize the recoil in that way. A Forced Reset Trigger isn’t working in that mechanism either, and that can be demonstrated as well. So, cranks or bump stocks themselves, mere possession of them, are prohibited under N.J.S. 2C:39-3, subsection l. You have separate prohibitions on those items. Furthermore, the law states that a conviction for possessing them doesn’t merge with a conviction for possession of an assault firearm. However, possession of an assault firearm is unconstitutionally going to go down the tubes, as we know, from that great decision out of the Third Circuit Court of Appeals. So, we’re simply dealing with cranks and bump stocks as standalone prohibited items, but not assault firearms. Page – 5 – of 12 Evan Nappen 18:35 But the question becomes: Does New Jersey still ban Forced Reset Triggers? Interestingly, when AI is asked about this, when AI is questioned, for fun, I thought I’d ask AI about it. And what AI says, particularly Gemini, if you’re interested, it says the state prohibits them by treating them as machine guns and machine gun conversions under New Jersey statutes 39-1 and 39-5. Then it goes to cite New Jersey’s machine gun classification and statutory provisions and enforcement position. Okay, let’s look at each one. Machine gun classification. New Jersey law enforcement and the Attorney General’s office classify FRTs as illegal machine gun conversion devices because they enable semi-automatic weapons to fire multiple rounds continuously with a single function of the trigger. Okay, guess what? We have a fight on our hands with that. That is their position. Keep that in mind. If you’re caught with one in New Jersey, the state will make that claim. However, as you can see from the actual definition, we have excellent grounds for arguing that they are wrong. We don’t have case law establishing it yet, but loopholes help find the way. Evan Nappen 20:07 Statutory provisions. They’re claiming that 39-5 prohibits possession of machine gun or any device that converts a firearm to a machine gun. Well, we just determined that it’s about pressing a trigger, and the trigger still is pressed with an FRT. So, that part of AI seems to be no good. I brought that up in my continuing conversation with AI, and AI responded. You point out, which I am pointing out, that a central distinction that gun rights advocate and federal courts have leveraged to argue FRTs are not machine guns under the Federal Firearms Act, a machine gun is defined as a weapon that fires automatically by a single function of the trigger. Because an FRT physically resets and forces a shooter to apply distinct pressure for each shot, federal courts like the Fifth Circuit have ruled FRTs require a separate trigger function per round and thus fall outside the federal definition. Evan Nappen 21:09 However, New Jersey law applies a different statutory standard and circumvents the single function trigger loophole. Really? I thought it just said distinct pressure for each shot. What the hell is AI even talking about? Well, they’re claiming that New Jersey has different statutory language. They’re saying machine gun means any firing mechanism, not requiring that the trigger be pressed for each shot. AI makes that bold. Yet we know that it does. So, where are they coming from with this? Well, they’re giving a legal interpretation that the state’s legal argument tries to distinguish between pressed and pulled. The state’s position is that the New Jersey Attorney General and state prosecutors argue that with an FRT, the shooter applies one continuous undivided downward pressure with their finger. Because the firearm’s internal recoil energy forcibly resets the trigger against the finger, the shooter does not deliberately release and consciously press the trigger again for each shot. Evan Nappen 22:21 However, they’re saying, and again, it says conclusion. Therefore, the state views the continuous rearward pressure of a single finger squeeze as a single continuous act, meaning the shooter is not actively pressing the trigger for each individual shot. Even though what’s happening is what? The trigger is being pressed for each shot. Ha! Battleground, right there, my friends. Battleground. Not determined yet. I don’t think you want to be the test case, but the fight is there to be had. Page – 6 – of 12 Evan Nappen 22:54 Aggressive multi-state litigation. New Jersey actively defends this strict interpretation, and yes, they will. The state led a coalition of 16 states urging that the Fifth Circuit reverse federal rollbacks on FRT bans. Explicitly stating that FRTs are new, but mechanical principles which they operate are not. They say the state maintains FRTs are fundamentally designed to evade automatic weapon restrictions and fall squarely within the state’s sweeping definition of rapid fire modification. Well, you’re right. They do evade it. They evade it by following what the law requires and finding the loophole that finds the freedom. The argument is there. Evan Nappen 23:42 Then, in my questioning of AI, it said you said, “Does New Jersey ban FRTs, and if so, how? They say yes. New Jersey bans FTRs. The state prohibits them by treating them as machine guns. We’ve gone through again in this loophole of a loop, how and why. Then AI puts forward Senate Bill 2097 specifically bans binary triggers as well. Well, guess what? That didn’t pass. Ah, but they claim that binary triggers falls under the same legal arguments because you’re releasing, not pressing. You can see the battle. What makes this so fascinating, my friends, is that this is now going to become a hotter topic for New Jersey. As we see the death of the 36-year-old assault firearm ban and semi-automatics not being treated in any different way. We then see these fronts, these battlefronts opening up for challenging New Jersey’s machine gun definition, which can occur through their still existing licensing law, and can occur through the battle of the loopholes under FRTs and binary triggers. We are seeing glorious opportunities before us to destroy New Jersey’s gun rights oppression. And that is the power of loopholes. Let me also. Go ahead, Teddy. Teddy Nappen 25:41 What I was going to say is, what’s going to come next is basically once we achieved it, where machine guns are legalized and we’ve basically knocked all their laws out. This is goes back to what the the Democrat Socialists put out, and then they’re gonna go for trying to abolish the Second Amendment. Evan Nappen 26:02 That’s right. Teddy Nappen 26:04 But that’s the whole idea. The whole argument of how we won on dealing with the assault weapon ban was the “common use”. So, I think just continuing to flood the market and to make sure guns outpace the population is the only way we’re going to ever protect the rights. Just manufacturing and outpacing them. Evan Nappen 26:05 The more commonly owned, the better. Evan Nappen 26:29 Hey, I want to tell you about our good friends at WeShoot. They have something really cool.

If you want to avoid that, you need the book. That’ll help you do it. Hey Teddy, what do you have for us in Press Checks? Teddy Nappen 30:17 Well, as you know, Press Checks are always free. We always like to check out our friends at AmmoLand, and they point out something that’s again very scary. If you’ve seen the news, all the big talk is about Flock Cameras. (https://www.ammoland.com/2026/07/flocks-flying-cameras-how-300-million-drone-deal-turns-america-into-an-always-on-surveillance-grid/) Typically, there’s a bill aiming to stop. Evan Nappen 30:37 What is a “Flock Camera”, Teddy? What is it? Page – 8 – of 12 Teddy Nappen 30:42 It is basically a highly advanced surveillance system that tracks, uses facial recognition, biometric identifications, and any other . It uses high level technology of capturing, analyzing, retaining. Evan Nappen 31:00 So, what are these cameras that are put all over the place? Teddy Nappen 31:03 So, they’re looking to. Right now the network has surpassed 100,000 cameras. They are operating more than 500,000. Evan Nappen 31:10 One hundred thousand cameras doing facial recognition, tracking, surveillance. Is this like Big Brother happening? Teddy Nappen 31:18 It is. And unfortunately, the Big Brother is very retarded. There have been many issues, including the fact that they’ve had the network be exposed, where you can get live feeds of the flock cameras. It’s amazing what you can find at a bunch of cameras pointed at, oh, you know, schools, playgrounds. That’s not going to be abused, and also it makes mistakes and false. Evan Nappen 31:44 And people are hacking into them, aren’t they? Teddy Nappen 31:46 Repeatedly, yes. And they’ve had. Evan Nappen 31:48 Well, wait a minute. If you’re not doing anything wrong, what do you have to worry about? Teddy Nappen 31:53 Well, it was pointed out in the article that this is important for the Second Amendment because it’s tracking license plates where it’s logging in, arriving and departing gun stores and gun shows and shooting ranges. Evan Nappen 32:08 Oh, New Jersey would never do that. Oh wait, they did. They did it at gun shows, even in out-of-state gun shows. Oh my. Teddy Nappen 32:16 Correct. Page – 9 – of 12 Evan Nappen 32:16 Oh my. And that’s without the aid of Flock Cameras. Teddy Nappen 32:20 Correct. And apply that now to not only building profiles where they’re going to determine oh this person’s a gun owner. So that obviously means they’re going to make the calculations think you’re carrying, and they’re going to wait until a moment when you’re in a “sensitive place” and try to bust you then. Doing this data tracking. Evan Nappen 32:41 Well, you’re not supposed to be in a “sensitive place”, Teddy. Teddy Nappen 32:44 Yeah, I know. It’s almost like you know things happen. Evan Nappen 32:46 And not only that, they use Wi-Fi to determine if you have a gun. Teddy Nappen 32:51 Correct. And then marry this with AI with a new thing called Signal Trace. It comes by the Leonardo USA Cybersecurity Company. So, this company, they use the Signal Trace. It’s a software system for identifying groups of consumers using multiples of the electronic devices. So, say that you have a smartwatch and a phone, or even your car, and all of that is accessible through the Signal Trace, where they develop large-scale profiles of individuals that they are tracking on these cameras. Now they understand. Oh, this person’s a gun owner. This person carries. This person’s going to have a whatever carry package. Evan Nappen 33:37 Wait a minute. I’ve got a question. I see, but are there any like countries that might be like authoritarian and really mean to their people that might be using technology like this? There isn’t any countries doing that now, is there? Teddy Nappen 33:54 China, Russia. Evan Nappen 33:56 China and Russia. Teddy Nappen 33:57 UK. Evan Nappen 33:58 I see, and the UK, of course, of course. Page – 10 – of 12 Teddy Nappen 34:03 These are various nations for that they’re going to abuse it. And by the way, they’ve come out and said they’re not talking about combining the two systems of Signal Trace. There’s no official contract, but let’s be real. The fact remains AI. Evan Nappen 34:19 Anything Government can abuse, they will abuse. That’s an iron law of Government abuse. Who’s kidding who? And by the way, if you’re not doing anything wrong, you’re not doing anything wrong till somebody decides that what you’re doing is wrong, and now it’s wrong in their book. Teddy Nappen 34:36 I’ll give you a one example. Well, they bought Aerodome, which is a drone package. So, now it’s going to be a mobile Flock Camera, calling it the Alpha. Evan Nappen 34:51 Oh, wow! Everywhere! Flying overhead. Anywhere, everywhere, constant surveillance. That’s just lovely, lovely. Teddy Nappen 35:02 Yes. Evan Nappen 35:02 Who wants to live like that? Teddy Nappen 35:05 Yes. So, Big Brother is out there, and I’m pretty sure there are a few videos on how to do drone hunting. So that’s going to be fun. Yeah. You know, when Amazon was doing that, it was skeet shooting with prizes. Evan Nappen 35:20 Ha, ha! Well, you know, there’s a federal bill I understand to try to ban these. Teddy Nappen 35:27 Correct. It’s the Protection Against Mass Surveillance Act (H.R. 980). (https://www.ammoland.com/2026/07/burchett-bill-flock-cameras-gun-owners/) Evan Nappen 35:33 Well, damn, we need that bill. Teddy Nappen 35:35 Yeah, no, no kidding. Evan Nappen 35:37 It’ll be a federal prohibition on this nonsense? Page – 11 – of 12 Teddy Nappen 35:40 All federal agencies will be prohibited from using automated surveillance system to identify, track, or record individuals. Evan Nappen 35:46 Oh, I’m sure the state of New Jersey will happily do it, though. It sounds right up their line. Teddy Nappen 35:52 Yeah. Evan Nappen 35:53 But at least if we get the feds to maybe even make it preemptive. It should be a federal law that preempts the area, so that’s nationwide and preemptive. So, you kill it for the whole country. Teddy Nappen 36:06 Yeah, and this is where. Again, this is the marrying of what will come because we can have all these fights and win and get all the loopholes, but this combined with AI of what they’re going to do, they will just track, and they know how many guns without even having to do the right process. Evan Nappen 36:24 It’s scary. It’s scary stuff. Teddy Nappen 36:26 They won’t even need to do the paperwork even. It’ll just have an AI. Evan Nappen 36:29 You know, technology is advancing so fast with all this. You’re combining AI and drones and Flock cameras and this targeting ability. I mean, you know, we’re not too far from RoboCop. And that also includes actual robots coming our way. Then you combine robots with Flock and drone and AI, and you see we’re entering into a sci-fi horror show here. Teddy Nappen 37:03 Yeah. Evan Nappen 37:04 They better get the federal laws on this stuff, man. It’s spooky. It’s scary. It is not how I grew up. I’ll tell you that. It’s bad news. Bad news. Evan Nappen 37:17 Well, I want to tell you about this week’s GOFU, which is of course the Gun Owner Fuck Up. It’s important. We always study GOFUs. You don’t want to become a GOFU. GOFUs are expensive lessons that others have learned that you get to learn for free, so you don’t repeat them. And let me tell you, these are actual cases, clients and real scenarios. I’ll tell you something I’ve seen a lot of lately. Page – 12 – of 12 Folks that are doing their own expungements. If you have a record that needs to be cleared, I absolutely do not advise doing it yourself. You need a professional to get your expungement done right. There’s a lot of nuances to getting expungements done right, and when they are done wrong, it is a nightmare. It is a nightmare to fix it, and it creates escalating problems. Evan Nappen 38:11 Let me give you an example. You get an expungement, and you don’t clear all your records. You think you have. Next thing you know, you’re jammed up on your gun application for lying on the form. You’re looking at five years in State Prison for lying on the form because you wrote “no” when you should have wrote “yes”. You thought you were expunged and you weren’t. You get an expungement. You actually get everything cleared, but you didn’t realize that you had to wait for the State Police to also scrub the record. No one told you that. You thought it got done, but the database comes up that you have a record. You’ve said “no”. Now the entire system comes down on you for lying. License denial, gun forfeiture, revocation. You’ve got to fight it all off. Again, giant problem. Evan Nappen 39:03 Even if you get the expungement order, you don’t realize the record hasn’t been scrubbed. Your local issuing authority recognizes the expungement, and grants you the license or permit. You then go to the dealer to buy, but get denied on the NICS check because the database still has it in it. Now the feds are on your ass, and the entire escalation comes down on you for that. We see these scenarios over and over again. If you or anybody you know needs an expungement, get it done professionally. There’s too many pitfalls, problems, and nuances in doing it properly and correctly. Believe me, we see that downside. Don’t be a GOFU. Evan Nappen 39:57 This is Evan Nappen and Teddy Nappen reminding you that gun laws don’t protect honest citizens from criminals. They protect criminals from honest citizens.

Our medical experts examine the biggest health news of the month from a new cancer-detecting blood test to a joint supplement that may accelerate cognitive decline.

More investors are starting to ask about Section 351 exchanges, a little-known part of the tax code that can allow someone to move appreciated stocks into an ETF without immediately paying capital gains taxes. Evan breaks down how the strategy works, who may be able to use it, and why it probably won't come up in most investors' financial plans. He also looks at why Section 351 exchanges are getting more attention from regulators and whether they are a smart planning strategy or simply a tax loophole.  Later in the episode, Evan talks about taxes on student financial aid and what families should know about Trump Accounts.   Want to cut through the myths about retirement income and learn evidence-based strategies backed by over a century of data?

Every so often, a strategy starts circulating that sounds almost too good to be true. It sits in that uncomfortable space between legitimate planning, aggressive interpretation, and something that may not survive closer scrutiny.  We've started hearing about this one from more and more clients, and the potential financial impact is large enough that it deserves a serious discussion. Today, we're going to look at what makes it so appealing, where the risks begin, and why the details matter more than the headline. Topics Discussed: Why the pay stub recertification strategy sounds almost too simple to be true. What added flexibility S corporation owners have over traditional W-2 earners. How a single low pay stub could cut a monthly payment by more than $1,000. What the 2026 repayment system means for RAP, PAYE, and IBR borrowers. Why the "true, complete, and correct" certification creates real compliance risk. How the student loan tax bomb could turn years of savings into a six-figure tax bill.

Kurt Gödel was a genius mathematician and logician, considered by many scholars to be as influential as Aristotle. He was also buddies with fellow geniuses Albert Einstein and Oskar Morgenstern, the co-creator of Game Theory. In 1947, Gödel told Morgenstern and Einstein he had identified an inner contradiction in the U.S. Constitution while studying for his citizenship test: the type of loophole that could plunge the United States into a dictatorship not unlike the Nazi regime Gödel had escaped when he immigrated from Austria. So, what was the loophole? Over the years, everyone from Constitutional law scholars to laypeople on Reddit have wondered. Endless Thread plumbs the depths of Gödel's galaxy brain with the help of philosopher, writer and Gödel expert Rebecca Newberger Goldstein — and learns some surprising lessons about artificial intelligence, a German shorthand called Gabelsberger, and democracy along the way. Show notes: Incompleteness: The Proof and Paradox of Kurt Gödel, by Rebecca Newberger Goldstein (Amazon) Oskar Morgenstern's account of Kurt Gödel's naturalization (Institute of Advanced Study) This episode was produced by Grace Tatter.

A fierce debate erupts as Shaun Morash goes to bat for Jose Caballero after the infielder complained about being penalized for a pitch clock loophole. Evan Roberts completely unloads on Caballero for whining about a justified penalty, while Tiki Barber argues the umpires severely mishandled the situation by failing to issue a warning first. The disagreement quickly escalates into a heated battle as Evan and Tiki team up to ruthlessly shut down Shaun over his ridiculous defense of the situation.

Squatters have been in the news nationally and in Las Vegas recently, and under current Nevada law, even legitimate homeowners can find themselves powerless to remove unauthorized occupants quickly. So what needs to change? Then, local animal rescue Paws Patrol LV had its thermal drone destroyed mid-rescue by unhoused individuals, and a stranger from Montana stepped up to replace it. It raises a bigger question: why do some animal rescues have to rely on the kindness of strangers to fund life-saving equipment? Finally, one of Philly's most celebrated cheesesteak shops just opened its first location outside Philadelphia right here in Las Vegas, which got us thinking about some of the best sandwich shops around Vegas. Host Jesse Merrick breaks it all down with Executive Producer Layla Muhammad and Nevada Current Editor April Corbin Girnus.

American clawed back the 25,000 miles from that AAdvantage Business promo code, reversing transfers and apologizing with 5,000 miles, and we make the case that they actually handled it well, which is more than we can say for hotels that walk you or open late with a shrug. Speaking of, we get into why Hyatt stopped offering real compensation on delayed hotel openings and what they should be doing instead. Amex is also tightening things up, changing the terms on the streaming credit so bundles like Peacock with Apple TV Plus no longer count, and linking multiple logins on the back end so you can no longer use separate accounts to see different Amex Offers. We reminisce about the golden era of Amex Offers, the Staples and Smart and Final days, and the offers that were worth flying across the country for. Plus Olive Garden's Unlimited Pasta Pass is back for the first time since 2020, still $100 but now good for 13 weeks, with only 10,000 available.

This episode dives into the Ridglan Farms activist prosecutions, USDA’s new “lawfare portal” (yes, the federal government apparently needs help fighting itself), CAFO propaganda dressed up as science, and fresh data showing just how misled the public really is about caged hens and industry-funded meat studies. Wisconsin prosecutors pile more charges on Ridglan Farms activists, while the actual documented animal cruelty…

Think the online course industry is dead or flooded with low-quality "gurus"? Think again. In this episode of The Proven Entrepreneur Show, host Don Williams sits down with Justin Allan Montgomery, the founder of Procore Start. Justin pulls back the curtain on a massive, recession-proof loophole in the e-learning space: Continuing Education (CE) courses.While typical online courses face heavy skepticism from buyers who have been burned before, CE courses target licensed professionals who must earn credits every single year to keep practicing. Justin shares his exact blueprint for how he turned a $10,000 investment into an eight-figure business, leading to an early retirement at age 39. If you want a realistic, fluff-free look at what it actually takes to build a highly profitable course business without needing viral videos or millions of followers, this episode is your strategic guide.Topics Discussed1. The Power of Built-In Demand: Why targeting licensed professionals (dentists, lawyers, doctors, electricians) creates a guaranteed market for continuing education.2. The State of the Online Course Industry: How AI-generated content and low-quality courses have burned consumers, and why CE courses remain resilient against this market skepticism.3. The Critical First Week Mistake: The absolute necessity of idea validation and market analysis over immediate course building.4. Audience Building vs. Product Creation: Justin's framework of prioritizing a small, highly engaged audience over vanity metrics, and how he made $50,000 in seven days with just 3,000 followers.5. The Myth of Passive Income: A brutal truth check on what "passive" actually means, and the reality of the 10-hour workweek.6. Smart Capital Allocation: How to break down a $10,000 startup budget using the 30/70 rule for development versus marketing.7. The Reality of Early Retirement: Why achieving total financial freedom before 40 often leads back to entrepreneurship out of sheer boredom.Entities Mentioned1. Don Williams: Host of The Proven Entrepreneur Show.2. Justin Allan Montgomery: Founder of Procore Start, serial entrepreneur, and education consultant.3. Procore Start: Justin's education consulting company that trains professionals to build CE course businesses.4. The Elite Nurse Practitioner: Justin's first highly successful CE business focused on nurse practitioners, which achieved an eight-figure exit.5. Gary Vaynerchuk (Gary V): Mentioned by Don regarding his philosophy on the high value of small, dedicated audiences.Ready to dive deeper?
