Last week's fatal shooting of Charlie Kirk was deeply disturbing, and as Andrew establishes at the start, “murder is murder” and those responsible must be held to account.

Then, co-editor-in-chief of Just Security, Ryan Goodman stops in to share his research around the end of “the presumption of regularity” in the Trump era, amid growing frustration from many lower courts. And lastly, Andrew and Mary dig into the latest twists and turns in the President's attempt to fire Fed Governor Lisa Cook.A note to listeners: After today's recording, Tyler Robinson was charged with felony aggravated murder, among other charges.Further reading: Here is Ryan Goodman's research in Just Security: The “Presumption of Regularity” in Trump Administration LitigationAnd a reminder: There are still tickets available for MSNBC Live – our second live community event featuring more than a dozen MSNBC hosts.

Here's a preview of a new podcast, The Chinatown Sting from our friends at Pushkin Industries. In the late 1980s, a group of women connected through the mahjong parlors in Manhattan's Chinatown were caught in a massive undercover drug bust. But this bust was just the beginning of an even bigger case. Host Lidia Jean Kott and co-reporter Shuyu Wang interview sources who've never spoken on record before, including witnesses, defendants, and federal prosecutors, to reconstruct a case that still has repercussions today. In this episode, we meet Tina Wong, a young mother who found herself in the middle of the operation with two choices—go to prison, or risk her life to bring down the man at the helm.

In Britain, a state visit by Donald Trump was jolted when activists projected massive images of Trump and Jeffrey Epstein onto the walls of Windsor Castle. The stunt, which British police quickly shut down, resulted in four arrests on charges of “malicious communications.” Photos of the projection spread globally within minutes, hijacking the carefully staged optics of a royal ceremony and forcing Epstein's name back into headlines through spectacle and shock.Across the Atlantic, a federal judge in Manhattan ruled against unsealing the identities of two women once described as potential co-conspirators in Epstein's network. Prosecutors never charged the women, and the court argued disclosure would expose them to unnecessary harm. The decision reignited frustration among survivors and transparency advocates, who see secrecy as another barrier to accountability, ensuring that questions about who enabled Epstein remain unanswered.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.com

This Day in Legal History: Final Draft of the US Constitution EngrossedOn September 16, 1787, the final draft of the United States Constitution was signed by the Constitutional Convention delegates in Philadelphia. Although the official signing date was September 17, the 16th was the day the finished document was ordered to be engrossed — meaning it was written in its final, formal script on parchment. This step marked the culmination of four months of intense debate, compromise, and drafting by delegates from twelve of the thirteen original states. The Constitution replaced the failing Articles of Confederation and established a stronger federal government with distinct executive, legislative, and judicial branches.Debates on September 16 included last-minute details such as how amendments could be proposed and the extent of federal power over the militia. The delegates had already resolved key issues like the Great Compromise (creating a bicameral legislature), the Electoral College, and the Three-Fifths Compromise regarding the counting of enslaved individuals for representation. One of the final acts on the 16th was the approval of the letter that would accompany the Constitution to Congress, urging ratification by the states.Though the Constitution would still need to be ratified by nine of the thirteen states, the events of September 16 set the stage for the formal adoption the following day. The engrossed copy would be signed on September 17 and later become the foundation of American law and governance.Maurene Comey, a former federal prosecutor and daughter of ex-FBI Director James Comey, has filed a lawsuit against the Trump administration over her sudden termination in July. She alleges that her firing was politically motivated, stemming from her father's adversarial relationship with Donald Trump. The lawsuit, filed in Manhattan federal court, names both the Justice Department and the Executive Office of the President as defendants and claims Comey was given no reason for her dismissal. According to the suit, Comey had received strong performance evaluations, including one in April signed by Trump-appointed U.S. Attorney Jay Clayton.Comey had played key roles in high-profile prosecutions, including the sex trafficking case against Ghislaine Maxwell and the recent conviction of Sean “Diddy” Combs on prostitution-related charges. She was fired just two weeks after the Combs trial ended. The email she received from DOJ human resources cited presidential authority under Article II but offered no specific explanation. When she asked Clayton about the decision, he allegedly said, “All I can say is it came from Washington.”The lawsuit challenges the administration's ability to remove career, non-political prosecutors and raises concerns about politicization of the Justice Department, particularly in cases involving Trump or his allies.Former federal prosecutor Maurene Comey sues Trump administration over firing | ReutersElon Musk's company X Corp has settled a trademark dispute with legal marketing firm X Social Media over the use of the “X” name. The case, filed in Florida federal court in October 2023, stemmed from Musk's rebranding of Twitter to X, which X Social Media claimed caused consumer confusion and financial harm. As part of the resolution, both parties asked the court to dismiss the case with prejudice, meaning it cannot be reopened. The founder of X Social Media, Jacob Malherbe, confirmed the settlement and announced the company will now operate under the name Mass Tort Ad Agency.The terms of the settlement were not disclosed, and X Corp did not issue a comment. The lawsuit was one of several Musk's company has faced over the “X” name, which is widely used and trademarked by numerous businesses, including Microsoft and Meta. In its defense, X Corp argued that many companies have long coexisted with similar “X” trademarks and accused X Social Media of trying to exploit the situation for profit. This settlement follows another earlier agreement in which X Corp resolved a separate trademark claim brought by the firm Multiply.The dismissal brings closure to a case that raised questions about branding overlap and trademark dilution in an increasingly crowded digital landscape.Musk's X Corp settles mass-tort ad agency's trademark lawsuit over 'X' name | ReutersTwo U.S. law firms, Bartlit Beck and Kaplan Fox & Kilsheimer, are requesting $85 million in legal fees after securing a $700 million settlement with Google over alleged antitrust violations tied to its Play Store. The settlement, which is still pending approval by U.S. District Judge James Donato, resolves claims that Google overcharged Android users by restricting app distribution and imposing excessive in-app transaction fees. Under the agreement, $630 million will go to a consumer fund, with another $70 million allocated to a state-managed fund shared by all 50 states, D.C., Puerto Rico, and the Virgin Islands.Consumers are expected to receive a minimum of $2, with additional compensation based on their Play Store spending from August 2016 to September 2023. Google also agreed to ease restrictions on app developers, allowing them to inform users about alternative payment methods and enabling easier direct app downloads from the web. The fee request amounts to approximately 13.5% of the consumer settlement fund, and the firms say they invested nearly 100,000 hours over more than three years.While Judge Donato previously raised concerns about the scope of the deal, no U.S. state has objected to the fee request so far. Google has not admitted any wrongdoing as part of the settlement, and users will still have the opportunity to raise objections before final approval.Lawyers behind $700 million Google settlement ask for $85 million fee award | ReutersMy column for Bloomberg this week looks at Norway's recent national election, which effectively became a referendum on one of the last remaining wealth taxes in Europe. Despite having a $2 trillion sovereign wealth fund and no immediate fiscal need for a wealth tax, Norwegians narrowly backed the Labour Party, signaling that voters still care about fairness in taxation—even when the government doesn't need the money. In a global landscape where wealth taxes have mostly disappeared, this was a small but potent victory for the principle of equity.I argued that this matters beyond Norway. Wealth taxes used to be common across Europe, but most were abandoned due to fears of capital flight and elite lobbying. That Norway held the line—even amid billionaire threats and a populist surge—suggests that wealth taxes can survive politically when fairness becomes a central electoral value. It also underscores that symbolic wins can shape broader policy debates by proving what's administratively and politically possible.In the U.S., we lack Norway's fiscal cushion, yet we've persistently avoided taxing wealth. Policymakers often justify this inaction with fears about capital mobility, but I question whether we're really more vulnerable to capital flight than Norway is. The deeper issue is political will. Americans have long treated wealth taxation as politically toxic and bureaucratically unworkable, but that may be more a product of narrative than necessity.Norway's voters showed that fairness can be enough to win—even narrowly. But I emphasize that such policies require ongoing public defense; they don't sustain themselves. If we continue dodging the issue in the U.S., we'll be doing so not from a place of strength, but from a place of illusion. If Norway can defend taxing wealth despite not needing to, we have no excuse not to even try.Norway Wealth Tax Victory Shows Visible Fairness Still Matters This is a public episode.

He transforms us from the inside out, unbreaking what was broken. The “more” your soul longs for is Him.

In this snippet from my upcoming book, I share a story about my first time on the streets of New York, calling on accounts and selling William Hill wines in only the second week after I had taken the position as VP of Sales for the Eastern Division at William Hill Winery. Some Division, I was a one-man show and responsible for half of the country east of the Mississippi. In this episode, I detail my account call at the famous Sparks Steakhouse in Manhattan. It would become even more infamous a year later when Paul (Big Paul) Castellano would be whacked sitting in his car outside of the restaurant in a Mob-related reputedly ordered by John Gotti.This account call posed an immediate challenge to both my instincts and sales ability. However, I put to the test what I believed based on my experience, and that was, most people buy wine based on the way it smells, not on how it tastes.Take a listen or read the transcript.Thanks for being a listener to the Fine Wine Confidential Podcast.

Read transcriptWelcome web-slinging warriors and joystick jockeys to another thrilling episode of Play Comics where we untangle the sticky situation of comic-to-game adaptations with the precision of Peter Parker trying to explain away his sudden photography skills! This week we're diving headfirst into the cel-shaded spectacular that is Ultimate Spider-Man, the 2005 game that took Brian Michael Bendis and Mark Bagley's comic masterpiece and somehow convinced every gaming platform from here to the Daily Bugle that they needed a piece of this web-slinging action. Released across more systems than Spider-Man has quips in his arsenal—PS2, Xbox, GameCube, Game Boy Advance, and Nintendo DS—this Treyarch-developed adventure let players experience both sides of the symbiote coin. Whether you were swinging through Manhattan as everyone's favorite wise-cracking wall-crawler or stomping around as the terrifyingly toothy Venom, this game promised to deliver more comic book authenticity than J. Jonah Jameson has anti-Spider-Man editorials. Joining us for this ultimate discussion are two absolute legends from the podcasting multiverse: Derek B Gayle and Doug Fink, the dynamic duo behind Walloping Websnappers and a whole constellation of other fantastic shows on the Glitterjaw Queer Podcast Collective that may not be directly relevant to our web-slinging shenanigans today, but are undeniably brilliant nonetheless. When they're not busy dissecting every Spider-Man cartoon ever created or exploring the depths of various other pop culture phenomena, these two bring their encyclopedic knowledge of all things Spider to help us determine whether this game truly captured the essence of the Ultimate universe or if it just left us feeling like we'd been caught in one of Green Goblin's elaborate schemes. So dust off those early 2000s gaming controllers, practice your best Venom growl, and prepare for an episode that's guaranteed to be more entertaining than watching Eddie Brock try to explain his sudden career change from journalism to alien symbiote hosting! Learn such things as: Can you make a game that really fits in with the continuity of the comics AND have it stay that way? Will we sucker any artists into making Venomized versions of The Muppets? What kind of good butt battle would ensue between Venom and Captain America? And so much more! You can find Derek and Doug on a bunch of stuff on the Glitterjaw Queer Podcast Collective, including Walloping Websnappers, Skreeonk!, and Falling With Style. You can also find Doug on Novel Gaming and on BlueSky @ickybooley. You can also find Derek on Gimmicks and Lee Carvallo's Podding Challenge, and on BlueSky @derekbgayle.

This week on the What's N Your Head Podcast, we dive into some heavy and thought-provoking topics. We start with the shocking assassination of Charlie Kirk and explore how this ties into the global struggle for freedom of speech, as people everywhere fight to reclaim their voices. On the lighter side, we have fun with some of the odd and downright ignorant “pop culture fashion rules” from the 80s that will leave you shaking your head. Mike also shares the story behind his brand-new tattoo experience in Manhattan. To top it off, we tackle a mind-bending historical perspective: when you realize that Billy the Kid and our grandparents were alive during overlapping eras, history suddenly feels a lot closer—and not nearly as old as we've been taught. It's a mix of serious, strange, and surprising—just the way we like it.
There is a saying that a lot of counselors have, "feelings are information, not direction." Grief makes us irrational, but the Holy Spirit can convict us to guide our actions.

Halloween is approaching, so we figure it's time for some SCARY CLASSIC SHOWS!Lights Out was one of the earliest radio programs focusing on horror and the supernatural. It ran on several networks from 1934 to 1947 before making the transition to television. This episode, “Rocket From Manhattan,” was broadcast on September 20, 1945, and is set in the distant future year of… 2000!
Rex Heuermann is a 59-year-old architect from Massapequa Park, Long Island. He operated a Manhattan-based architectural firm, RH Consultants & Associates, and had over 30 years of experience in the field. He was described by neighbors as a typical family man, living with his wife and two adult children in a seemingly tight-knit community.Heuermann was arrested on July 13, 2023, as the prime suspect in the Gilgo Beach murders, a series of killings that took place over a decade ago. He was initially charged with the murders of three women: Melissa Barthelemy, Megan Waterman, and Amber Costello. These women, along with Maureen Brainard-Barnes, who Heuermann was later charged with murdering, are known as the "Gilgo Four"The "Gilgo Four" were all sex workers who disappeared at different times and whose bodies were found bound and wrapped in burlap along a quarter-mile stretch of Gilgo Beach between 2007 and 2010. The remains of these women were discovered in December 2010 during the search for another missing woman, Shannan Gilbert.Evidence and InvestigationAuthorities linked Heuermann to the murders through several pieces of evidence:DNA Evidence: A male hair found on Megan Waterman's body was matched to Heuermann through DNA analysis.Burner Phones: Heuermann allegedly used burner phones to contact the victims and to search for information about the case.Internet Search History: His internet history showed an obsession with the Gilgo Beach case, including searches related to the victims and the investigation Defense and Legal ProceedingsHeuermann's defense attorney, Michael Brown, has raised questions about the involvement of former Suffolk County Police Chief James Burke in the investigation, alleging potential suppression of the FBI's involvement.Brown is also exploring the possibility of another suspect, a former police officer with the initials "W.H.," which matched initials found on a belt related to one of the victims.Heuermann has pleaded not guilty to all charges and maintains his innocence. The case is complex, with a vast amount of evidence to be reviewed, and a trial is still a long way from taking place. Now, however, as more details are revealed, Rex Heuermann is about to be charged with two more murders. Jessica Taylor And Valerie Mack.

Today David Waldman welcomes the distinguished Ian Reifowitz, author of Riling Up the Base: Examining Trump's Use of Stereotypes through an Interdisciplinary Lens, to connect the dots interdisciplinarily between Donald K. Trump riling up his base and the stuff we're presently going through. Trump will certainly receive his long sought-after Pulitzer Prize after scooping the entire lamestream media to report that his boy Kash Patel finally caught his man, with some assistance from Matt Robinson, a 27-year veteran of the Washington County Sheriff's Department and father of the alleged shooter Tyler Robinson… Yep, cis, white, Christian, Republican, gun nut, Trump fan Tyler Robinson… Here we all were thinking that we witnessed a political assassination, when it kind of looks like Charlie Kirk might have just shot himself. Let's learn more about guns! Slap that like! Pity the poor Gops and Trump who required a Horst Wessel to carry them into the midterms. Oh well, back to that Ukranian girl. Meanwhile, South Koreans rejoice to see Korean political prisoners escape American clutches. And Brazilians dance in the streets even more than usual to see their democracy hold strong. Marco Rubio vows revenge. Remember, that's Riling Up the Base: Examining Trump's Use of Stereotypes through an Interdisciplinary Lens, with a live Q&A and book signing this September 30 at Barnes & Noble at 1550 3rd Avenue in Manhattan! Meet the Author, Ian Reifowitz, and mention my name for a free soft drink refill!
Our new interview with Margot Kingon, an artist and the founder of Second Wave Supplies, has a wonderful sweep to it. As an artist and creative instigator, much of Margot's work could be labeled “art as social practice.” Her many projects have included a long-running pop-up dance party (Dance/Play), a year-long series of Covid-era family portraits, and most recently, an art supply thrift store in Beacon. When she takes something new on, Margot typically isn't only out to express herself creatively but also to invite others to engage and build something together. All of this is fairly new. Margot grew up in Manhattan's Upper West Side during a period of high crime. (She was mugged multiple times). She took a million art classes as a kid but strayed from making art as she grew up. She only returned to it in force after working for decades in work she didn't love, as a lighting technician. The initial spark that renewed her creative life came when she became a mother, as she and her husband (musician Josh Stark) made a pact to do the work they wanted their child to know them for. But even after making that commitment, she grappled for nearly two decades with work/life balance, her responsibilities to her ailing mother, and how to live. That all sounds rather serious but Margot recounts her stumbles and epiphanies with a lot of humor and insight. And of course she talks at length about Second Wave Supplies' mission to provide affordable access to art materials to folks in Beacon while keeping them out of the landfill.

Today I'm thrilled to be joined by Carolyn Vine from Robin Hood, one of New York City's most impactful organizations fighting poverty. Robin Hood is stepping into an exciting new chapter—launching an endowment campaign that will strengthen their ability to serve the city for generations to come. Carolyn and I dive into how this initiative is taking shape, what it means for New Yorkers, and why continuity in leadership has been one of Robin Hood's greatest advantages. Carolyn oversees all fundraising activities at Robin Hood andleads the Development, Marketing, and Events team in their work raising funds to support the organization in its critical poverty-fighting work. In that capacity, she is responsible for reaching annual fundraising goals of more than $150 million and driving Robin Hood's development strategy by identifying new partners and initiatives to expand its fundraising platform, including planned giving, an endowment campaign, and a next-generation leadership group.Prior to joining Robin Hood in 2010, Carolyn worked at the global investment firm, D.

On this special New York Fashion Week edition of the Glossy Podcast, we're kicking off our Fashion Month coverage. New York Fashion Week has officially started, and the shows are underway. On this episode, senior fashion reporter Danny Parisi, international reporter Zofia Zwieglinska and editor-in-chief Jill Manoff give a preview of what they'll be looking for during the week, what shows are the most notable, and what New York Fashion Week's identity is now that many mainstay brands have moved their shows to Europe. First, we break down how the shows themselves are differing. The CFDA, along with a new organization called KFN, is experimenting with a new format this season, with 30 designers over the course of the week showing in a few centralized locations in lower Manhattan. The move is an effort to rein in the geographic sprawl that has affected New York Fashion Week over the last few years. While in previous decades, shows were centralized in places like Bryant Park or Spring Studios, recent years have seen shows continue to spread out across the city. Whether the move will be a success remains a question mark. But one thing that's certain is that brands are looking for ways to cut costs this season. Several shows this week are held at the brand's own stores, office or headquarters. We also discuss some notable shows this week, including Ralph Lauren, Tibi and Christian Siriano, which is showing at Macy's, plus the return of the Rachel Antonoff x Susan Alexandra dog show. And lastly, we talk about New York's place in the global fashion landscape. While many of the big brands, including American brands, have moved their shows to Paris or Milan, New York Fashion Week has slowly morphed into a great showcase for indie and advanced contemporary brands.

In December 2021, following approximately six days of jury deliberation, Ghislaine Maxwell was found guilty on five of six charges in a U.S. federal court in Manhattan. The convictions included sex trafficking of a minor, transporting a minor with intent to engage in criminal sexual activity, and three counts of conspiracy. She was acquitted on the single remaining charge: enticing a minor to travel for illegal sex acts. The unanimous verdict underscored the jury's conclusion that Maxwell had played a central role in Jeffrey Epstein's abuse operation and directly participated in the exploitation of underage girls.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-epstein-chronicles--5003294/support.

This episode begins with Mary and Andrew digesting the 2-1 decision from the Fifth Circuit Court of Appeals halting the Trump administration's ability to use the Alien Enemies Act to deport Venezuelan nationals accused of being members of Tren de Aragua.

Next, they move to Monday's Supreme Court decision undoing limits set by a lower court on how ICE conducts immigration raids.
