According to the Supreme Court, President Donald Trump doesn’t have the power to impose a global tariff of 15% that aims to bring back manufacturing to US shores. A lawsuit brought by California Gov. Gavin Newsom certainly doesn't help. Lou is opposed to crap flooding our marketplace and undermining American manufacturing, thus destroying the fabric of our society when US jobs are shipped overseas. Lou plays listener Talkbacks — and the listeners are split regarding American manufacturing and whether it boosts the economy and bolsters the cost of living. Decades ago, it was the fault of both Republicans and Democrats working across the aisle and in cahoots to change trade law to send labor overseas. In 1972, two engineers from Westinghouse designed and built a kitchen appliance that went on to become the most famous appliance in its genre. And that appliance was Mr. Coffee Coffee Maker. #DonaldTrump #Trumptariffs #GavinNewsom #manufacturing #regulations #Republican s #Democrats #supremecourtruling #Americanmanufacturing #freetrade #Westinghouse #appliances #MrCoffee See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

We'll talk about what increased oversight means for legitimate firms, how to align with “Made in America” and onshoring narratives, why SBIR/SBIC data points to more tech-to-contract pathways, and how to get your documentation and positioning ready before agencies start moving faster in 2026.

Newt talks with Xi Van Fleet about her new book, “Made in America: The Hidden History of How the U.S. Enabled Communist China and Created Our Greatest Threat” co-authored with Yu Jie. Her book explores the historical connections between the United States and the rise of the Chinese Communist Party (CCP), emphasizing the role of the U.S. in enabling China's current global ambitions. Xi is a prominent anti-communist voice and gained national attention with a speech to the Loudoun County, Virginia school board comparing critical race theory to Mao's cultural revolution, highlighting the dangers of Marxist ideologies in America. They discuss the parallels between identity politics in the U.S, and class divisions in Maoist China, warning of the potential loss of freedom if these ideologies continue to spread. They also discuss the indoctrination occurring within American educational institutions. They conclude with concerns about the CCP's influence, and the internal threats posed by communist ideologies within the United States.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Today on Steel News with Ann Vandersteel, we examine the unfinished business of January 6, through the eyes of a man who paid one of the highest prices.Stewart Rhodes, founder of the Oath Keepers, was convicted of seditious conspiracy and sentenced to 18 years in prison, despite never entering the U.S. Capitol. His sentence was later commuted, not pardoned, leaving his conviction intact and his civil exposure unresolved.As civil cases continue against President Trump under Reconstruction-era statutes like the Third Enforcement Act of 1871, and as courts deny presidential immunity by reframing Trump as a political candidate rather than a sitting executive, the legal architecture of January 6 remains very much alive.We explore how commutations versus pardons affect veterans' rights and benefits, how militia groups were legally isolated from Trump to preserve civil liability, and why the same laws once used after the Civil War are now being repurposed to reshape modern American politics.And in Segment Two, we bring the conversation home, to Michigan, where citizens like Chadwick Twillman, a candidate for State Senate District 35, are stepping forward to challenge unchecked government power at the state level, where the Constitution either holds or collapses.This is about oaths.Who keeps them.Who breaks them.And who finally says: enough.Follow: ANN VANDERSTEEL https://AnnVandersteel.comSPONSORS:https://AmericanMadeFoundation.orghttps://AmericanMadeAction.orgHEALTHY FOOD & BEAUTYSUPERFOODS https://VandersteelHealth.comReady to save big on your superfoods purchase?

This week we went LIVE from the American Farm Bureau Federation Convention in Anaheim, California with our first-ever live show in front of a crowd. Logan and Bobby Lee kick things off with a no-BS conversation about the farm economy, the row crop squeeze, and why the barrier to entry for young farmers has gotten flat-out insane. Midway through, we're joined by Joby Young, Executive Vice President of the American Farm Bureau Federation, to break down what Farm Bureau really is (hint: it's way more than insurance), how their grassroots policy process works, and what they're fighting for right now to help farmers stay in business. We also get into the tough topics: input inflation, corporate chokeholds, farm payments that disappear in 48 hours, and how we create real demand so agriculture gets back to profitable. Joby shares his wild story of serving as Acting U.S. Secretary of Agriculture for 26 hours, plus what Farm Bureau is pushing on issues like year-round E15 and whole milk in schools. Farmers! Join your local Farm Bureau! Your state has one!  And yes… we close with a Made in America pick: Duckworth (Montana-made merino wool gear). Go check out Agzaga! It is the ultimate online farm store.

On this must-hear episode, Hard Asset Money Show host and economist Christian Briggs returns with sharp insight into one of the most impactful—and controversial—economic policy debates of our time: Are Trump's tariffs saving the U.S. economy or setting it up for a showdown with the Supreme Court? Briggs doesn't hold back as he breaks down how Trump's economic strategy is reigniting domestic manufacturing, narrowing the trade deficit to its lowest level since 2009, and spurring real wage growth—all while inflation plunges to levels not seen since pre-Biden.Speaking from both data and lived experience, Briggs draws on the dramatic transformation of America's auto industry—once gutted by globalization, now revitalized by Trump's America-first production mandates. Foreign automakers like Honda and BMW are investing billions into U.S. factories, pivoting under pressure from tariffs they can no longer afford to ignore. According to Briggs, it's not just about jobs; it's about sovereignty: “You want to sell to American consumers? You better build it here.”But the episode's most urgent moment centers on the looming Supreme Court decision on the legality of Trump's tariffs. Briggs argues that this isn't a partisan issue—it's about national financial survival. With the U.S. debt racing toward $40 trillion and interest payments eclipsing the defense budget, the tariffs, he says, were “an emergency tool in an economic war.” If the Court strikes them down, Trump already has a Plan B. But if they're upheld? “We're going to see 5–6% GDP growth—something Biden and Obama could never dream of.”Throughout the segment, host and guest both stress that the tariffs aren't just a policy—they're a battle cry for Made in America. From inflation and wage increases to trade balance and manufacturing jobs, the message is clear: Trump's economic playbook is working—and it's only just begun.With SCOTUS on the clock and the global economy in flux, this episode couldn't be more timely. Whether you're a policy wonk, working-class patriot, or just trying to understand the real story behind the headlines, this is the one podcast that explains how America could reclaim its financial future—one tariff at a time.

Logan breaks down what the farm economy really looks like heading into 2026, and it's not pretty. After putting pencil to paper, even with drastically cut input costs, reduced equipment expenses, and average yields, the profit margins are razor-thin, barely enough to keep most operations alive. This is the side of farming no one wants to talk about. The guys also tackle California agriculture, sharing why they have deep respect for the farmers who choose to stay and fight for food production in a state that has made it increasingly difficult to operate. Politics may be broken, but California farmers aren't giving up. Then things get even more interesting… There are strong rumblings of a large government farm payment coming this fall, and Logan and Bobby break down what it could mean. Finally, they wrap with listener questions, including one that's got people wondering: Can you legally list a friend as the operator of your farm for a year to reset USDA beginner loan eligibility? That question alone could change how some farms survive. The Made in America segment this week features Fill-Rite Nozzles — rugged, American-made equipment farmers depend on when it matters most.

In this episode of Directed Life, we explore why biblical prosperity, God's economy, and end-times prophecy are deeply connected. This conversation breaks down the difference between Kingdom prosperity and worldly financial systems, revealing how economic dependence can shape allegiance in the last days. Using Scripture from Genesis, Daniel, the Gospels, and Revelation, this episode examines themes like the Antichrist system, the mark of the beast, buying and selling, and how God designed prosperity as a covenant promise, not a prosperity-gospel distortion. We discuss why trusting God as the provider matters more than ever as global economic control increases.

12-22-25 STEEL NEWS MMTLP The Stock That Was Never Supposed to Trade. Regulators Chose Brokers Over InvestorsFEATURING: The MMTLP community and the Agency Regulators that colluded to leave them with nothing.https://x.com/annvandersteel/status/2002892951899537804?s=20SHOW DESCRIPTIONMMTLP was never supposed to trade.Yet 65,000 investors—including over 200 military veterans—were allowed to buy it… then stripped of the right to sell.In this investigation and video short, Ann Vandersteel exposes how a dividend created during a corporate merger was turned into a tradable ticker, frozen by a sudden U3 halt, and quietly erased—locking families into financial ruin while regulators protected Wall Street.This wasn't a glitch.It was a decision.Behind closed doors, broker-dealer interests, a so-called “independent” regulator, and federal oversight failures converged—leaving everyday Americans trapped in a market that no longer played by its own rules.Retirements were wiped out.Businesses collapsed.Families were destroyed.And to this day, no one has been held accountable.The MMTLP story is not over.This is Steel News where truth survives pressure.Follow: ANN VANDERSTEEL https://AnnVandersteel.comSPONSORS:https://AmericanMadeFoundation.orghttps://AmericanMadeAction.orgHEALTHY FOOD & BEAUTYSUPERFOODS https://VandersteelHealth.comReady to save big on your superfoods purchase?

On this week's show, we'll dive into the question many people are asking: Are we in a bubble stock market? We'll delve into the aspects of this and uncover what analysts are saying about today's economy, what history teaches us and current stock market valuations compared to other market tops. We'll discuss the prevailing trend of "Made in America" and what that means for the U.S. and the world in terms of trade imbalances and whether this will be boon for our economy. Last, Beth will discuss the new contribution limits for 2026, and the benefits of maxing out our retirement plans. While that may be a challenge for sure, this will be a great opportunity for you to hear what your limits are and how that might help you to have more freedom later. So much to discuss and so little time, and your questions are always welcome! Tune in and take control!

Rep. Tim Walberg of Michigan's Fifth Congressional District joins the show to break down his vote in favor of the National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2026. Serving on both the Energy and Commerce Committee and the Education and the Workforce Committee, Walberg explains why supporting the NDAA is essential for national security and for improving the lives of America's servicemembers. He highlights the bill's 3.8% pay raise for troops, expanded benefits for military families, key investments in Made-in-America defense equipment, and critical funding, including for the Golden Dome, to ensure the U.S. maintains strength and readiness in a dangerous world.

Mike Zlotnik - Tempo Funding On Investment Advice: "At the end of the day the best risk mitigation strategy is prudent diversification." Investing in real estate is often thought to be a great place to grow your wealth.  But often investors have other things going on and they don't want to deal with tenants, paperwork, searching out properties and all of the headaches that come with doing your own real estate investing. What if there were a way to invest in real estate in other ways?  Investing in the loans other people have on real estate, or investing with a group and getting into large commercial properties with leases that run decades long? Mike Zlotnik started Tempo Funding to help investors grow their money with real estate, without needing to get their hands dirty.  He shares his journey in the tech world to discovering the power of passive real estate investing, buying his first apartment in Brooklyn back in 2000, and growing into large-scale commercial projects like industrial facilities and open-air shopping centers. He explains Tempo Funding's focus on marrying “money and opportunity,” helping individuals, often those who have exited businesses or cashed in on appreciated assets, find reliable income streams backed by real estate. Listen as Mike explains his real estate investing strategies and how they may work for you. Enjoy!

I was doing well, but I was a little burned out. I spent almost 15 years in technology. I had great friends. I liked it. Technology. Felt like I wanted something that I really didn't have to work all the time, something that I can make investment decisions and the money could work for me. So I discovered real estate passively in year 2000, buying my first apartment in Brooklyn. Mike Zlotnik [00:00:25]: And then I continued to buy more and passively. James Kademan [00:00:33]: You have found Authentic Business Adventures, the business program that brings you the struggle stories and triumphant successes of business owners across the land. Downloadable audio episodes can be found in podcast link found at https//:drawincustomers.com We are locally underwritten by the Bank of Sun Prairie, Calls On Call Extraordinary Answering Service as well as the Bold Business Book. And today we're welcoming Slash, preparing to learn from Mike Zlotnick of Temple Funding. That's TF Management Group. Is that safe to say, Mike? Mike Zlotnik [00:01:01]: Yeah, yeah, but the easier way, people call me Big Mike. I am six four. So Big Mike. James Kademan [00:01:05]: Well, you can't tell on the screen, so. All right, that is a. That's a Big Mike. Big Mike, indeed. So, Big Mike, what is Tempo funding? Mike Zlotnik [00:01:15]: We are the best way to describe Tempo funding. We marry money and opportunity. We are a platform for folks with capital to invest, typically in real estate, kind of. I don't want to call myself exactly one trick pony, but I am mostly one trick pony. It's real estate. We have a team, we have organization that focuses real estate projects, industrial, open air shopping, multifamily, et cetera. James Kademan [00:01:42]: Okay. Mike Zlotnik [00:01:42]: And then we have folks with capital who sold businesses, they've sold highly appreciated stock, they sold bitcoin, whatever, they made their money and then now they're looking for steady, predictable income. And that's what we try to bring them. That's kind of what we do for many, many years. James Kademan [00:02:01]: You mentioned steady predictable income. And can you elaborate on that? Because sometimes in the real estate world that's not always the case. Mike Zlotnik [00:02:08]: Yeah, so today the world's changed quite a bit and we really gravitated towards predictability. I literally have an article that I wrote and a video comparing high IRRs versus predictability. Wide majority of people, especially with monetary event where they've got significant lump sum, they're looking for predictability. So what is predictability? So normally it means the assets themselves have a great engine, how they generate predictable income. Take an example, triple net industrial. This is just a simple way to explain. It's right before the call we were talking about made in China versus made in America. Well, there's a renaissance now to build in America. Mike Zlotnik [00:02:50]: Made in America and industrial production in America is welcome. So quite often there are companies that manufacture here and the real estate underneath it gets sold by the owner of the business. They sell the real estate, lease back and stay in that property. So where does predictability come from? Well, that business has been there for 60 years. They sell real estate, they use capital for further investment or to pay their parent company and then it's a mission critical property. And to make long story short, they're there, they have a 20, 25 year lease and it's triple net, meaning that all the expenses, taxes, insurance, everything else is covered by the tenant. So as a landlord you collect rent and every year it goes up between 2 to 3%. So you have high predictability of outcome simply because it's contractually guaranteed with a credit quality tenant with long term lease, with rent escalation clauses, with triple net structure. Mike Zlotnik [00:03:50]: So you're collecting this, you're an equity investor, but you're collecting it like a bond. You get your coupon today, this year. So what does that coupon look like? For example, year one you could start with 7%, maybe even higher. And year two goes up, and year three, it goes up. So it begins to look like a predictable investment because it's so contractually built to be predictable. So you know, initial cash flow, you know, year two cash flow, year three, year four, year five. And then that increased NOI drives forced appreciation. Because in commercial real estate, the price of the asset is a function of net operating income. Mike Zlotnik [00:04:24]: You hear these fancy terms, cap rates. All the cap rates describe is what do you pay per dollar of income. The lower the cap rate, the higher the price per dollar of income. So as interest rates obviously impact cap rates, but in general, the structure itself grows. Niy, if interest rates don't do anything, they stay flat. You're still growing the value of the asset because the NOI is growing. That's a predictable structure. You see these structures in real estate quite a bit. Mike Zlotnik [00:04:50]: And I'll shut up for a second, let you chime in more questions because I can talk on this probably for hours. James Kademan [00:04:55]: No, that's awesome. That's awesome. It's interesting you mentioned real estate that's essentially large scale commercial. It sounds like you're talking manufacturing. Yes, this isn't just the small mom. Mike Zlotnik [00:05:06]: And pop house, it is a manufacturing facility quite often gets bought for $25 million. There are of course bigger projects, but the sweet spot is anywhere from, you know, 10, 15, 20, 25, 30, $30 million small manufacturing. I'm not talking about AI data centers that are getting built for a billion dollars, not, not for that. James Kademan [00:05:29]: Okay. I guess, I think as you're talking here, I'm thinking south of me on the north way north of Chicago is Belvedere, Illinois, which has a car manufacturing plant that I think since I've been driving to and from Chicago every once in a while, I want to say that thing has changed hands four or five times. And that thing, that property, I don't know if it's necessarily one building, but that complex, it's probably the size of a small city. Sorry, it sounds like you're getting into stuff that big. Mike Zlotnik [00:06:04]: Not that big, but an example, we do have an asset in New Castle, Indiana, again, Midwest. And it's a, you know, it's called $25 million asset. It is a multi acre property and it produces stainless steel and it's been in that business and that location over 60 years. So that kind of a facility. All right, not a small city, but for that local town, it's a significant manufacturer and industrial facility. James Kademan [00:06:32]: Oh, I bet it's huge. And for something like that. Do you. I mentioned the equipment goes with the building. Just because it took so much to get that equipment in there, it's like an old pool table. To get it out is a big deal. Mike Zlotnik [00:06:45]: They end not moving so effectively you own real estate as an investor, but they've made so many tenant improvements themselves over the years for their own business, plus all the equipment, everything else. They're going to stay there, they're going to continue to.

Leslie welcomes back Scott Paul, President of the Alliance for American Manufacturing, for a preview of the newly released 2025 'Made in America Holiday Gift Guide.' (link: https://www.americanmanufacturing.org/blog/the-2025-made-in-america-holiday-gift-guide/)   This year's guide makes it easier than ever for shoppers to find U.S.-made products and support American workers this holiday season. New polling released with the Gift Guide shows overwhelming demand for locally made goods, with 81% of Americans saying they're as likely or more likely to buy American-made products this year. The vast majority (83%) of shoppers say they would buy more Made in USA goods if these products were more widely available. The Gift Guide bridges that gap, connecting consumers with the craftsmanship, quality and well-paid jobs that come from buying Made in America. In its 12th year, the 2025 Guide features 148 manufacturers and makers from across all 50 states, the District of Columbia and Puerto Rico. There's an American-made gift for everyone, with finds ranging from model airplane kits and stocking stuffers to jewelry and grills. Shoppers can browse the guide by state or product category, and a new segment this year highlights brick-and-mortar stores specializing in state-made goods for in-person shopping. Additionally, AAM's Made in America Directory spotlights 873 companies and their products that are not featured in this year's Guide. Leslie and Scott highlight five of the companies and their gift offerings for just a taste of the guide.  Here they are: 1 - WicR Have you always wanted to be a plant parent but were too scared you'd forget to water them every day? Fear no more: WicR is a self-watering product that makes it a lot easier. All you have to do is place the WicR at the bottom of your pot, cover it with soil, and place your plant in. Then, after an initial watering, the WicR will self-water your plant for seven to ten days. A game-changer for plant care! 2 -  Alaska Glacial Essentials Skincare Alaska Glacial Essentials Skincare draws from its surrounding beauty in Cordova, Alaska, to enhance the quality of the products they make there. This company sources glacial minerals and botanicals for gentle but effective formulas, and all its products are vegan and cruelty-free. Its energy-efficient facility operates on 60-80% community hydropower, and the Certified B Corps company prides itself on a commitment to sustainability. Alaska Glacial Essentials Skincare donates 2% of its revenues to organizations that protect the Alaskan environment, such as the Copper River Watershed Project.  3 - Made-Plus Footwear The vast majority of footwear today is imported. But Alan Guyan, an alum of Under Armour's shoe division, saw an opportunity to do things differently. That's why he started Made+, a luxury athletic shoe brand based in Annapolis. All the shoes are made with 100% recycled yarn — and that yarn is made from repurposed plastic water bottles. These shoes come in all sorts of designs; they even sell shoes specially designed for pickleball. If you're looking to replace those athletic shoes, Made+ is an incredible choice. (And check out their in-person storefront if you're near Annapolis!) Lastly, be sure to check out AAM's blog post featuring Made+ from last month, where you can find on their website at AmericanManufacturing.org/blog 4 - High Strung Studios For the music lover on your list, High Strung Studios hits all the right notes. This woman-owned business transforms real guitar strings into beautiful, handcrafted jewelry made right here in the USA. Each bracelet, necklace, and pair of earrings carries a touch of rhythm and a whole lot of heart, making them perfect for anyone who finds joy in a good song. Thoughtful, unique, and full of holiday cheer, these gifts truly strike a chord. 5 - Cycle Dog Bring some wag-worthy joy to the holidays with Cycle Dog, a woman-owned company in Portland, making eco-friendly gear for dogs who love to play. Every collar, leash, toy and bed is crafted in the USA using recycled materials, keeping millions of inner tubes and bottles out of landfills. Durable, sustainable and made by a team of passionate makers (and their pups), these gifts are perfect for anyone who wants to spoil their dog, spread a little holiday cheer, and do good for the planet all at once. Lastly, Leslie and Scott talk about Project MFG. What's Project MFG?  Think Top Chef — but for welders, machinists and engineers. Ray Dick, founder of Project MFG and creator of the YouTube reality show 'Clash of Trades,' is inspiring the next generation of manufacturers through hands-on competition and community engagement.

In this week's Talk Dirt To Me, we open with a hard-hitting conversation every patriot needs to hear. Have we lost our American identity? Once upon a time, we all stood united under one flag. Today, it feels like that unity's slipping away. But make no mistake, we're still proud to be Americans, and we're not afraid to say it loud! After diving deep into that discussion, we read a batch of listener emails covering everything from China trade deals and their real impact on current farm prices, to a Canadian cattleman's startup costs, and even a listener asking, "What are the must-haves in a truck toolbox?" To top it off, our Made in America spotlight goes to one of the toughest, most iconic gym brands in the country, Texas Power Bars. Built to last, Made in Texas. Tune in for grit, truth, and unapologetic American talk straight from the farm to your ears. Go check out Agzaga! It is the ultimate online farm store. American owned and operated.
