Podcasts about loopholes

For decades, courts across multiple jurisdictions have been criticized for consistently denying Epstein's survivors meaningful justice. From the beginning, legal systems bent under the weight of Epstein's wealth, power, and institutional protection. The most notorious example remains the 2008 non-prosecution agreement in Florida, in which federal prosecutors secretly negotiated a sweetheart deal giving Epstein minimal jail time, work-release privileges, immunity for unnamed co-conspirators, and—critically—never informed the victims who were legally entitled to be notified. Judges allowed that agreement to stand for years, even after it was revealed victims' rights had been violated, effectively shutting the door on accountability while Epstein resumed his trafficking network without consequence.Even after his 2019 arrest reopened national attention, survivors say the court system continued to fail them. Epstein's sudden death inside a federal detention facility ended the criminal case before testimony could be heard, sparing his network from exposure. Civil litigation has stalled repeatedly under claims of secrecy, sealed records, ongoing investigations, and legal maneuvering designed to protect institutions and elites rather than empower victims. Survivors have waited years for documents and names that courts continue to shield, and the majority of powerful figures who benefitted from Epstein's operation have never seen a courtroom. Instead of being a mechanism for truth, the courts have too often operated as a shield—delaying, redacting, and obstructing justice while survivors are forced to relive trauma in pursuit of answers that the system seems determined to bury.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-epstein-chronicles--5003294/support.

The Defense Department's Blue UAS program maintains an ever-expanding index of commercial drones that are meant to be devoid of components from adversary nations including China, Russia, Iran, or North Korea, and endorsed for speedier purchasing by U.S. military buyers. This list of compliant options is growing rapidly in late 2025 as the government moves to incentivize the adoption of more affordable U.S.-made drone products for modern military operations, and simultaneously reduce the nation's reliance on foreign supply chains. Blue UAS also marks a key feature of the second Trump administration's plan for “unleashing American drone dominance.” However, multiple sources told DefenseScoop this month that the majority of the unmanned aerial systems cleared through this effort have motors that are sourced in China. One former senior defense official who was granted anonymity to speak freely said: “It's a big enough problem that we should do something. If you don't have motors, you can't fly a drone.” They added: “And I think if you had to pick the top three [Chinese components that are currently in Blue UAS-approved platforms], it would be the motors, the batteries and the electric speed controllers — if you want to call them, like, ‘dumb' parts.” Sen. Elizabeth Warren, D-Mass., is asking the Trump administration to detail any plans it has to subsidize AI companies, alleging that OpenAI might be positioning itself for such relief, despite denials by its leadership. Warren's Tuesday letter comes as the ChatGPT owner has faced questions in recent weeks about the health of its finances and whether it's becoming so enmeshed in the U.S. economy that the federal government should or would prevent its failure — in other words, whether it's become “too big to fail.” The speculation was enough to elicit a response from OpenAI CEO Sam Altman, who earlier this month pushed back on the theories in a social media post and said the company should not be bailed out in the event of failure. Yet, Warren is still seeking information about any potential plans by the government to “prop up” the company, arguing OpenAI's decisions paint a different picture. Warrend wrote: “While Mr. Altman has claimed that the company is not looking for a ‘bail out,' OpenAI's actions suggest that it may be pursuing a deliberate strategy to entangle itself with the federal government and the broader economy so the government has no choice but to step in with public funds. We have seen this before: take on enough debt, make enough risky bets, and then demand a taxpayer bailout when those bets go south so the economy does not crash.” The letter was addressed to White House AI and crypto czar David Sacks and Office of Science and Technology Policy Director Michael Kratsios, and asks for assurances that the administration will not bail out OpenAI or any of its competitors should they fail.

Included in one of the bills to fund the federal government and end the government shutdown was a provision closing what is known as the "hemp loophole." This gray area, created by a 2018 law, allowed an industry of hemp-derived intoxicants that were federally legal to be sold throughout the US in places where states hadn't stepped in to regulate these products. On this episode of Policy Outsider, Heather Trela, the director of operations and a fellow at the Rockefeller Institute, spells out the distinction between hemp and marijuana, details how the "hemp loophole" came to be, and explains what closing the loophole means for this industry.GuestsHeather Trela, Director of Operations and Fellow, Rockefeller Institute of Government

By now, you know that the House passed legislation last night to reopen the government. But you might not know about a provision that would completely change the way hemp is regulated. It was tucked into the new farm bill, which was also approved last night, and funds the Agriculture Department through September. We'll hear more. Plus, are government institutions shifting resources away from the working class? Professor Clara Mattei argues that's the case.

When an admitted violent offender walks free after 11 felony charges, something in the system is broken. In this episode of Hidden Killers with Tony Brueski, we expose how Oklahoma's Youthful Offender Act was used to spare 18-year-old Jesse Mack Butler from prison time after pleading no contest to multiple felony charges — including rape, attempted rape, sexual battery, and strangulation. Police say they found partial phone video of one attack. Medical reports confirmed that one victim required neck surgery after being choked to the edge of death. Despite the brutality, Butler's case was reclassified from adult felony to Youthful Offender — effectively suspending a 78-year sentence and replacing it with a single year of supervision. Joined by Ret. FBI Special Agent Robin Dreeke, Tony breaks down: The timeline of failures that let it happen. The family and community privilege surrounding the case. The behavioral patterns of predators — and those who protect them. Why “no-contest” pleas let defendants avoid public accountability. This is a story about systems that choose reputation over justice, mercy over morality, and silence over truth.

Other stories involve a meticulous employee who strictly follows a new, flawed process using complex forms, leading to a complete system failure. Finally, a series of satisfying customer service moments sees one person forced to hear the same advice for nearly an hour, and a cashier winning a coin war using the customer's own "money is money" defense.

How does someone accused of extreme violence walk out of court without a day in prison? In this episode of Hidden Killers with Tony Brueski, we expose the loophole that turned outrage into disbelief across Oklahoma. Eighteen-year-old Jesse Mack Butler faced serious felony charges after two teenage girls were brutally attacked. Doctors said one almost didn't survive. But instead of decades behind bars, Butler walked free under a single year of supervision thanks to Oklahoma's Youthful Offender Act—a law designed to rehabilitate kids, not shield violent offenders. Tony digs deep into how this happened:  ⚖️ How prosecutors and judges use the Youthful Offender statute.

A brightly colored box at a smoke shop should not hit like an opioid, yet that's the business model behind “gas station heroin.” We dive into how tianeptine—a foreign antidepressant with mu‑opioid activity—landed on American countertops as a “dietary supplement,” and why that mirrors a broader playbook: repackage potent psychoactives, exploit loopholes, pivot fast when bans arrive, and let consumers pay the price. Joined by Matthew Lowe, executive director of the Global Kratom Coalition, we trace the supply chain from warehouses to wallets and separate leaf kratom from the synthetic isolates hijacking its name.We break down the risk gradient inside the kratom category: natural leaf with fiber and mixed pharmacology, concentrated extracts that raise potency, and seven‑hydroxymitragynine products that function like a novel opioid. Matthew explains why the FDA's percentage‑based scheduling of 7‑OH is a smart, surgical fix that preserves traditional use while ejecting synthetic opioids from the “supplement” aisle. We also tackle hemp's loophole economy—Delta‑8 and Delta‑10 THC derived from hemp yet delivering marijuana‑like effects with far less oversight—plus contamination, cross‑stocking, and the handful of distributors fueling multiple “legal high” trends at once.Beyond policy, we talk people. When regulators finally pull a dangerous product, dependent users are often left stranded. We outline a practical path: better labeling that discloses opioid activity and dependence risk, age gates, potency caps, and targeted enforcement against unapproved drugs sold as supplements. Just as crucial, clinicians need straightforward guidance to assess what patients took, why they took it, and how to transition them to safer, evidence‑based care without stigma.Curious how these products keep showing up, what “novel synthetic opioid” really means, and how we can protect choice where risk is low while acting decisively where harm is high?

Sports Cards Live episode 287, Part 4. We tackle the hobby's messiest gray areas: PSA's first graded card and whether it was trimmed or just hand-cut, how language (“house bids,” “single panel,” “perforated”) shapes value and trust, and why some collectors say trimming is worse than shilling—while others disagree. We break down the Bird/Magic/Dr. J triple-panel rookie labeling across graders, the “I've got a higher offer” negotiation killer, and what Fanatics' anti-shill policy should look like in practice. Plus, quick hits on the NBA betting scandal and how integrity headlines can ripple into card markets. What you'll learn The difference (and stakes) between hand-cut vs. trimmed—and why it matters for grading and value How graders label Bird/Magic/Erving when separated (“single panel,” “perforated”) and what buyers should check The spectrum of shilling (semantics vs. manipulation) and how platform policies/loopholes actually work Why “I have a better offer” often nukes deals—and a simple script to defuse it Practical bidding tactics to avoid getting nudged: late max bids, ceilings, and BIN/Best Offer pivots How league betting scandals and injury-report gamesmanship can affect pricing sentiment Learn more about your ad choices.

Big Rich, TD & Fletch dive headfirst into the confusing jungle of Gen Z slang to see if TD can decode words like “delulu” and “skibidi.” Spoiler alert: he cannot. Rich reveals his latest scientific weight-loss discovery—apparently, if you eat while exercising, the calories don't count—and somehow the team decides that makes total sense. Then things get weird when everyone picks the movie they'd love to jump into right now and replace a character. (Let's just say, TD as a naked Ryan Reynolds is something you can't un-imagine.)

In this episode, tax attorney Toby Mathis sits down with Chris Streit, CEO of CSA Partners, to dive deep into cost segregation studies and how they can dramatically improve cash flow for real estate investors. They explore the biggest mistakes investors make with depreciation, explaining how the IRS treats properties as single assets when they're actually composed of multiple components that depreciate at different rates. Chris breaks down the mechanics of cost segregation studies, revealing how even a $200,000 rental property can generate $40,000 in year-one deductions instead of just $5,000-$6,000 annually. The conversation covers the impact of the One Big Beautiful Bill's reinstatement of 100% bonus depreciation, the differences between engineered studies versus software-generated reports, and strategies for minimizing depreciation recapture through 1245 exchanges. With over 20,000 studies completed and minimal audit issues, Chris provides expert guidance on audit-proofing returns, maximizing tax savings throughout the property lifecycle from acquisition to sale, and debunks common myths about depreciation timing and syndication eligibility.

Congress has spent $15 trillion through emergency designations since 1991, which is equivalent to half the entire publicly held debt of the United States. Emergency designations have enabled more than $12.5 trillion in spending since 1991—comparable to the entire amount spent on Medicaid and veterans' programs combined—and added an estimated $2.5 trillion in associated interest costs.Join the Cato Institute on Tuesday, October 7, at 2 p.m. EDT for an online discussion with other congressional staffers on how Congress can rein in similar fiscal abuses. We'll highlight bills that are now before Congress that would curb emergency spending loopholes, and we'll explore opportunities for lawmakers to lead or join promising reform efforts. A live Q&A will follow. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

In this powerful conversation, investigative journalist Shoshana Walter exposes the dark underbelly of America's rehab industry. Drawing from her eight years of research for Rehab: An American Scandal, she reveals how court-ordered rehab programs have exploited vulnerable people by sending them to work unpaid in dangerous jobs — all under the guise of “treatment.” We discuss: The shocking origins of these labor-based rehabs and how they became so widespread Why our mainstream treatment system often fails people — and in some cases, increases overdose risk Real-life stories of individuals like Chris, April, and Wendy that illustrate both the broken system and the resilience of those fighting for change How loopholes and lack of oversight allow unethical rehabs to thrive Practical ways families can identify quality treatment programs and avoid predatory ones Despite the heavy subject, this episode ends with hope: a growing community of advocates and storytellers pushing for systemic change. Before we jump in, I just wanted to give you a little update on what I've been up to, and share a new meeting I'll be hosting.  After creating and teaching a course called “Inner Compass”, I was feeling super burned out, so I decided to take some time off. I called it my "Self-Care Summer". I didn't do any new interviews, take on any new clients, or do any social media.  It was a time to reset, heal and think about the direction of my work. My guiding thoughts were centered around one question: "What does God want for my life?" I was practicing total surrender, and I gotta tell you, it was a leap of faith, but then something interesting happened. Two podcasters published interviews I gave, and I realized something. I truly love sharing what I've learned in recovery. It really fills my heart with joy. That's why I've been doing the Sobriety Reset series for those who are coming back from another “Day 1”. Also I was invited to partner with OpenRecovery, a free app centered around recovery, to start a new community there. This means I'll be hosting free meetings that will make 12 principals accessible to my fellow skeptics, by providing a path around common obstacles.   I'll leave links in the show notes so you can download the app, and there will be announcements for the launch date. I've been wanting to host a meeting since I published the book, and OpenRecovery is providing me with the platform! I'm really excited about it and I hope you'll join me. One last thing,  if you enjoy this episode, it would mean the world to me if you leave a review on Apple Podcasts. It might surprise you to know that according to the analytics, less than 1% of our audience will actually leave a review. By leaving a review, it helps others who are suffering to find the podcast and get the life saving resources they need to get and stay sober. You can even think of leaving a review as an act of service! So thank you so much for your support! So without further delay, please enjoy this episode, and let me know what you think!

After the passage of the Fugitive Slave Act in 1850, enslaved people feared running away to the North, as their return was mandated, and they faced brutal punishment or even death upon return to deter others from escaping. But that changed during the Civil War. Black slaves in Confederate Virginia began hearing rumors that they could receive their freedom if they reached the Union’s Fort Monroe. Union General Benjamin Butler found a loophole in the Fugitive Slave Act that allowed slaves who fled to Northern lines to be treated as "contraband of war"—seized enemy property—under the Confiscation Act of 1861. This meant they would be set free instead of being returned to slaveholders. Butler did this to deplete the Confederacy's labor force and bolster Union morale by offering refuge to escaping enslaved people. Word spread across the state. In a short time, nearly a thousand former slaves formed a camp outside the fort. Many worked to sustain the camps, growing crops like corn or cotton on nearby abandoned lands to feed themselves and generate resources. Men, women, and even children contributed to the war effort through various tasks, such as building fortifications, digging trenches, or serving as cooks, nurses, or laborers for Union troops. Freedpeople established schools, often with the help of Northern missionaries or organizations like the American Missionary Association, teaching literacy to adults and children. Other contraband camps sprang up, and by the end of the war, 800,000 former slaves had established over 200 of them. Today’s guest is Tom Zoellner, author of “The Road Was Full of Thorns: Running Toward Freedom in the American Civil War.” We discuss how these camps fostered interracial interactions that shifted public opinion toward abolition, highlighting the agency of enslaved people in their own liberation. The Emancipation Proclamation was a delayed response to these grassroots movements, not a singular heroic act. The camps’ role in challenging slavery’s legal and social foundations helped reshape the trajectory of the Civil War.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
