A Manhattan judge orders OpenAI to reveal 20 million chats in a massive copyright infringement lawsuit, potentially challenging the future of generative AI and the coming singularity. Then, a deep dive into the dangerous "Ozempic Body" trend, exposing the severe risks of GLP1 drugs, including gastroparesis and the shocking trend of $13,750 rib removal surgery to achieve a smaller waistline.

Prince Andrew's relationship with Jeffrey Epstein was not a mistake—it was a calculated choice sustained over years, even after Epstein's conviction for sex crimes. The Duke of York didn't distance himself from Epstein—he doubled down, staying at his Manhattan mansion and walking through Central Park with him while the world watched. When accused by Virginia Giuffre of raping her while she was a trafficked teenager, Andrew responded not with cooperation or humility, but with denials, absurd alibis, and a multi-million dollar settlement to avoid testifying under oath. The infamous Newsnight interview only cemented his arrogance, exposing a man more concerned with salvaging his reputation than acknowledging the suffering of Epstein's victims.What followed was a carefully managed retreat from public life. The monarchy, under increasing pressure, stripped Prince Andrew of his titles and public duties—not out of moral reckoning, but as a necessary step to contain the fallout. The legal system never pursued criminal charges, and media coverage often focused more on the royal family's image than the underlying allegations. Virginia Giuffre, through her persistence, brought global attention to a case that might otherwise have remained buried. In the end, Prince Andrew's reputation remains permanently damaged, but the broader questions about accountability, privilege, and institutional protection remain unresolved.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.com

Two closely watched surveys of U.S. manufacturing activity painted sharply divergent pictures in November, with one showing continued expansion and the other reporting accelerating contraction, highlighting deep uncertainty about the sector's health amid ongoing adjustment to the new rules of global trade. The S&P Global U.S. Manufacturing PMI registered 52.2 in November, marking the fourth consecutive month above the 50 threshold that separates expansion from contraction. However, the reading slipped from 52.5 in October. By contrast, the ISM Manufacturing PMI fell to 48.2, down from 48.7 in October and marking the ninth consecutive month of contraction. The divergence places the two surveys on opposite sides of the expansion-contraction divide, an unusual occurrence that suggests significantly different conditions across the manufacturing landscape.  https://twitter.com/ShadowofEzra/status/1995904464625000594?s=20   the national debt.

Venezuelan leader Nicolás Maduro is becoming increasingly isolated as regional governments shift away from Chavismo and move closer to Washington. Honduras and St. Vincent and the Grenadines, once reliable partners for Caracas, have both elected new governments that pledged to distance themselves from Maduro.  Honduras   Argentina, Ecuador, El Salvador, and Bolivia have also deteriorated as those countries shifted to the right. Puerto Rico and the U.S. Virgin Islands, both U.S. territories, have seen a renewed military buildup, with fighter jets and transport aircraft operating from Cold War-era facilities such as Roosevelt Roads and new activity at St. Croix's airport. Grenada is considering a U.S. request to host temporary radar equipment and personnel at Maurice Bishop International Airport. The government is still weighing technical and safety concerns, and the decision is complicated by the 1983 U.S. invasion and the airport's symbolic significance. Colombia remains the strongest partner, working closely with the United States on counter-narcotics, sanctions enforcement, and intelligence sharing, while also coordinating policy on the region's largest population of Venezuelan refugees. Paraguay and Uruguay consistently vote with Washington at the OAS to isolate Maduro and support democratic transition efforts. Ecuador works with the United States on organized crime, Venezuelan gang activity, and sanctions evasion, and has been publicly critical of the regime.  Maduro's remaining allies in the region are Cuba and Nicaragua, but neither is positioned to provide meaningful assistance.

Listener calls cover early-retirement withdrawals with 72(t), whether AVGV should replace AVGE, a Thanksgiving relative obsessed with dividends, and a listener being pitched a 1.24% Fidelity “wealth management” upsell. 0:06 Thanksgiving haze, Manhattans, overeating, and setting up the show 2:24 Magnificent 7 vs S&P 493 and how concentrated returns distort hindsight 4:49 1985's shock winners: Hormel, Lowe's (the other one), Franklin Resources 7:41 The 1980–1990 decade: Hormel and McDonald's huge runs and why none were predictable 8:10 Why you need small, value, and international beyond the S&P 500 10:58 Caller: retiring at 56, 72(t) rules, penalties, and whether IRA vs 401(k) location matters 14:28 Correction: SEPP applies only to the chosen account, not all pre-tax assets 16:36 Travel while you can: knees, age, lie-flat flights, and holiday banter 20:21 Caller: AVGE vs AVGV, value tilts, the overlap, and whether it's worth the swap 22:49 Why AVGV exists (and why advisors may not need it) 27:35 Thanksgiving email: dividend-obsessed relative critiques VXUS payouts 29:53 What dividends really mean—and don't—and why payout “stability” is useless 35:49 Voicemail: Fidelity wants 1.24% to “manage” half a 401(k); is it worth it?

The prosecution says Luigi Mangione ambushed UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson on a Manhattan sidewalk, fled the city, and was caught days later in a McDonald's with a backpack containing a gun and a notebook outlining an anti-health-care-industry ideology. The defense says that backpack shouldn't even exist in this case. They claim officers searched it illegally, questioned Mangione without Miranda, and collected statements while he was isolated in a Pennsylvania prison under constant watch. If a judge agrees, prosecutors could lose the alleged murder weapon, the writings on motive, and the statements tying it all together. This isn't just a murder case anymore. It's a fight over the Constitution — what police can do, what they can't, and whether a death-penalty prosecution can proceed if the evidence at the center of it was obtained the wrong way. Tonight, we break down the shooting, the arrest, the surveillance, the suppression hearing, the federal death-penalty push, and the extraordinary fallout if the judge throws out the evidence prosecutors are depending on. #LuigiMangione #BrianThompson #TrueCrime #HiddenKillers #LegalFight #SearchAndSeizure #DeathPenalty #CourtHearing #NYC #TonyBrueski Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Luigi Mangione is back in a Manhattan courtroom as his lawyers try to throw out the gun, the silencer, and that infamous notebook. At the same time, in Massachusetts, jurors hear Brian Walshe's chilling Google searches: "How to dispose of a body," "Can you be charged with murder without a body," and more. Tonight we break down what really happened in court, what the judges could decide, and what it all means for both cases moving forward.

Glenn Dubin is a billionaire hedge fund manager and major figure in New York's high society whose long, troubling relationship with Jeffrey Epstein went far beyond casual acquaintance. Even after Epstein's 2008 conviction for sex crimes involving a minor, Dubin — along with his wife, Eva Andersson-Dubin — kept him close, inviting him into their home, allowing him to spend holidays like Thanksgiving with their children, and maintaining financial and social ties. This wasn't ignorance; it was an active choice to normalize a convicted sex offender in one of Manhattan's most influential households, effectively lending Epstein the legitimacy he needed to remain welcome in elite circles.Dubin's continued embrace of Epstein, despite years of mounting allegations and sworn victim testimony naming him as a participant in Epstein's abuse, reveals a staggering moral blindness — or worse, a conscious decision to protect a friend whose crimes were well-documented. By keeping the door open for Epstein socially, professionally, and philanthropically, Dubin became part of the protective cocoon that allowed Epstein to survive and thrive after his conviction. In doing so, he not only damaged his own reputation beyond repair but also exemplified the elite complicity that kept Epstein's network intact long after it should have collapsed.And that's not even the worst of what Glenn Dubin has been accused of...to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.com

# Trump's Legal Battles: A Week in the CourtsWelcome back, listeners. Today we're diving into the ongoing legal saga surrounding former President Donald Trump, whose courtroom drama continues to dominate headlines as we head into the final month of 2025.Let's start with what just happened. Earlier this week, on December 5th, the Georgia Court of Appeals heard oral arguments at 10:30 in the morning regarding Trump and his co-defendants' appeal from Judge McAfee's decision to keep Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis on the case. This hearing represents a critical moment in the Georgia election interference prosecution, where Willis has faced repeated challenges from Trump's legal team questioning her impartiality and involvement in the case.Now, stepping back to understand the full picture, Trump's legal troubles span multiple jurisdictions and involve some of the most significant charges brought against any former president. In New York, the Manhattan criminal case concluded with a verdict that shocked many observers. A jury found Trump guilty on May 30th of 2024 of all 34 felony counts of falsifying business records in the first degree. What's particularly striking is what happened next. Justice Juan Merchan sentenced Trump on January 10th, 2025 to an unconditional discharge, meaning Trump received no prison time, no probation, and no fines despite the felony convictions. This sentencing effectively allowed Trump to walk away from what was initially portrayed as a serious criminal prosecution.The federal cases against him took a different trajectory entirely. In the Mar-a-Lago classified documents case, Judge Aileen Cannon dismissed the entire federal indictment back on July 15th, 2024, ruling that Special Counsel Jack Smith was improperly appointed and funded. When the Justice Department appealed this decision to the 11th Circuit Court of Appeals, they eventually abandoned the fight. On November 29th, 2024, the Department of Justice dismissed its appeal against Trump entirely, and later on January 29th, 2025, they dismissed appeals against Trump's co-defendants Waltine Nauta and Carlos De Oliveira as well.The Washington D.C. election interference case met a similar fate. The original trial scheduled for March 4th, 2024 was vacated while the Supreme Court considered Trump's immunity claims. After the Supreme Court remanded the case back to Judge Tanya Chutkan on August 2nd, 2024, she ultimately granted the government's motion to dismiss the entire case on December 6th, 2024.What we're witnessing is a remarkable collapse of the federal prosecutions against Trump, even as he serves as president for a second time. The Georgia case remains the only active criminal prosecution, though these recent appellate developments suggest momentum may be shifting away from prosecution efforts across the board.This legal landscape represents an unprecedented chapter in American history, where a former and current president faces felony convictions in one state while federal prosecutions have been systematically dismissed or abandoned.Thank you so much for tuning in today, listeners.

A Mafia insider and authentic Hollywood tough guy reveals the explosive secrets he's learned (and kept) for decades in this shocking tell all that unveils the hidden worlds of film and organized crime-from who shot JFK and murdered Jimmy Hoffa to the truth about Marilyn Monroe's death.The Kennedys, Marilyn, the Vatican, Vegas, The Godfather, the Mob, and more .During a cursed childhood in a Manhattan neighborhood teeming with Italian immigrant Gianni Russo fended for himself at an early age. It was a quality that didn't go unnoticed by Frank Costello-father figure, mentor, and legendary crime boss. Thanks to Costello, Gianni was only twelve when his luck would change for a lifetime. All of it charmed-and thrilling. With it came Hollywood glamor, Vegas risk-takers, political conspiracies, sex, murder, shadow governments, and secrets. The stories Gianni Russo could tell . .. Now he does in this bombshell confessional. This is the inside account of the Sicilian Mafia, Cosa Nostra, what really transpired in those Mulberry Street clubs, and who whacked whom-including how mobster Tony Spilotro and his brother really died, finally revealed for the first time. This is Gianni, buddy of Frank Sinatra, and intimately more with Marilyn Monroe. What's the cover-up behind her death, JFK's, and Jimmy Hoffa's? It's all here. So is the clandestine role of the pope as the sacred boss of bosses, the glory days and downfall of Las Vegas, and the colorful behind-the-scenes tales of Gianni's role in the greatest movie ever made, The Godfather. The go-getter Frank Costello once called "The Kid" shares his shocking, exhilarating, sometimes violent, and always riveting life with the dealmakers of Hollywood and the Mob. Gianni Russo lives to tell, and spills it all.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/arroe-collins-like-it-s-live--4113802/support.

Voters in Tennessee's Seventh Congressional District are heading to the polls for a race that has unexpectedly become competitive in what was once considered a reliably Republican seat. Democratic candidate Aftyn Behn has gained momentum and national backing as her party hopes for an unexpected House pickup. Meanwhile, her Republican opponent, Matt Van Epps, is relying on President Trump's endorsement to hold the district and prevent the GOP's slim House majority from shrinking. Van Epps joins the Rundown to discuss why he believes he will win today's special election and how he's coping with the pressure of the race. Last December, Brian Thompson, the CEO of UnitedHealthcare, was shot and killed in midtown Manhattan while traveling for a work conference. Luigi Mangione, accused of killing the CEO, is back in court this week for a pretrial hearing to determine whether key evidence will be admitted at trial. Criminal defense attorney Andrew Cherkasky joins the Rundown to discuss the evidence in question and how critical it is to the prosecution's case.

   Kristi Noem posted some serious truths and tough words on Monday that take a stance on illegal aliens like no other.  It's beautiful and this is her best way to communicate.   At the same time, a senator from Ohio has a perfect plan for American citizenship that should be passed as law ASAP.    A Trump fan has a great idea for him to end all this gender ideology nonsense.  Elton John says Trump could be on of the GOATS of the White House if he does one thing.  A listener sends an email in that is just wonderful.   In sports, Andy Reid gives up one of the most bizarre quotes ever while former KC quarterback Alex Smith drops truth bombs about this year's team.    KSU basketball coach Jerome Tang already seems to be a dead man walking in Manhattan losing his third straight with millions of dollars worth of players.   Social media influencers were all over KC Monday for the start of sports wagering in Missouri, golfer Justin Thomas is still whining about the Ryder Cup and two legendary broadcasters that have never called a basketball game together are about to.

But this episode is a story, of sorts, about a particular watch that is more or less a sequence of events spanning over a decade.

I then said, “We need to hit pause on this so we can record it.” So here we are.I bring you my conversation with Steve Moore also known as @moorewatches on the gram.Links:STANDARD Hhttps://standard-h.com/@standardh_

Prince Andrew's relationship with Jeffrey Epstein was not a mistake—it was a calculated choice sustained over years, even after Epstein's conviction for sex crimes. The Duke of York didn't distance himself from Epstein—he doubled down, staying at his Manhattan mansion and walking through Central Park with him while the world watched. When accused by Virginia Giuffre of raping her while she was a trafficked teenager, Andrew responded not with cooperation or humility, but with denials, absurd alibis, and a multi-million dollar settlement to avoid testifying under oath. The infamous Newsnight interview only cemented his arrogance, exposing a man more concerned with salvaging his reputation than acknowledging the suffering of Epstein's victims.What followed was a carefully managed retreat from public life. The monarchy, under increasing pressure, stripped Prince Andrew of his titles and public duties—not out of moral reckoning, but as a necessary step to contain the fallout. The legal system never pursued criminal charges, and media coverage often focused more on the royal family's image than the underlying allegations. Virginia Giuffre, through her persistence, brought global attention to a case that might otherwise have remained buried. In the end, Prince Andrew's reputation remains permanently damaged, but the broader questions about accountability, privilege, and institutional protection remain unresolved.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-epstein-chronicles--5003294/support.

Plastic surgery isn't one-size-fits-all, and Dr. Lawrence Bass wants to keep it that way. As aesthetic care becomes more mainstream, there's a growing risk of "fast-food" beauty—standardized treatments that ignore individual features and cultural nuances. Dr. Bass explains how the field has evolved from cookie-cutter results to true customization, driven by better techniques and a broader understanding of what beauty looks like across different faces and body types. From rhinoplasty that celebrates ethnicity to body contouring that embraces diverse silhouettes, the focus now is on harmony, not uniformity. His advice: skip the trends, find a surgeon who shares your vision, and aim for results that feel authentically you. About Dr. Lawrence Bass Innovator. Industry veteran. In-demand Park Avenue board certified plastic surgeon, Dr. Lawrence Bass is a true master of his craft, not only in the OR but as an industry pioneer in the development and evaluation of new aesthetic technologies.

On the morning of January 31, 1857, the body of Dr. Harvey Burdell was discovered in his Manhattan townhouse with fifteen stab wounds, and his killer had also strangled him to guarantee his death. Suspicion quickly fell to one of Burdell's tenants, thirty-nine-year-old mother of four Emma Cunningham. A few days after Burdell's death, Emma presented herself as his wife and attempted to collect his estate worth $100,000, but before she could get her hands on the money, Emma was indicted for Burdell's murder.The coroner's inquest and Emma's subsequent murder trial dominated the front pages—and then some—of nearly every newspaper in and around New York for weeks and was the “trial of the century” long before the term was even coined. Yet as sensational as it all was, there was no physical evidence tying Emma to the crime and the prosecution's only argument was that the killer was left-handed and so was Emma Cunningham. Despite the lurid details of affairs, multiple abortions, and constant domestic violence, without evidence the jury moved to acquit Emma after deliberating for just two hours.The story should have ended with the acquittal, but Emma wasn't content to walk away with just her freedom; she still believed she was entitled to Burdell's estate, and she intended to get it one way or another. What followed was a protracted battle for Burdell's money and property that took place in the courts and the press, with a variety of antics that ranged from forging marriage documents to faking a pregnancy and even buying an infant that, when all was said and done, would end up in P.T. Barnum's sideshow.ReferencesFeldman, Benjamin. 2007. Butchery on Bond Street: Sexual Politics and The Burdell-Cunningham Case in Ante-bellum New York.

Writer and editor Thomas Beller joins me to discuss his new essay collection Degas at the Gas Station. The essays trace his experience of fatherhood through the landscapes of his own childhood, including the early death of his psychoanalyst father and Tom's later return—wife and children in tow—to the very Manhattan apartment where he was raised. We talk about some of the fundamental conflicts of personal writing, including the ethics of writing about your children and even your ambivalence about parenthood. We also discuss why some writers feel trapped inside the genres that come most naturally to them, how the literary sensibility of The New Yorker shaped the styles of generations of writers, and how Tom is feeling about New York City these days. The episode was recorded on the morning of November 4, Election Day, and Tom talks about why he's voting for Zohran Mamdani—and why he thinks some of my early writing relates directly to Mamdani's platform. Guest Bio: Thomas Beller is a long time contributor to the New Yorker and the author of several books including Lost in the Game: A Book about Basketball, also published by Duke University Press; J.D. Salinger: The Escape Artist; and The Sleep-Over Artist. A 2024-25 Guggenheim fellow, he is a founding editor of Open City Magazine and Books and Mrbellersneighborhood.com, and  Professor and Director of creative writing at Tulane University.

Daniel 3:16–18, Proverbs 4:23. True strength begins with surrender. In a culture that bows to pressure and fear, the furnace becomes the place where trust is exposed, idols lose their grip, and bondage burns off. This Sunday, Pastor James Powell unpacks how Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego show us "even if" faith the kind that guards the heart, resists cultural idolatry, and reveals Jesus in the very fire meant to break us.

Glenn Dubin is a billionaire hedge fund manager and major figure in New York's high society whose long, troubling relationship with Jeffrey Epstein went far beyond casual acquaintance. Even after Epstein's 2008 conviction for sex crimes involving a minor, Dubin — along with his wife, Eva Andersson-Dubin — kept him close, inviting him into their home, allowing him to spend holidays like Thanksgiving with their children, and maintaining financial and social ties. This wasn't ignorance; it was an active choice to normalize a convicted sex offender in one of Manhattan's most influential households, effectively lending Epstein the legitimacy he needed to remain welcome in elite circles.Dubin's continued embrace of Epstein, despite years of mounting allegations and sworn victim testimony naming him as a participant in Epstein's abuse, reveals a staggering moral blindness — or worse, a conscious decision to protect a friend whose crimes were well-documented. By keeping the door open for Epstein socially, professionally, and philanthropically, Dubin became part of the protective cocoon that allowed Epstein to survive and thrive after his conviction. In doing so, he not only damaged his own reputation beyond repair but also exemplified the elite complicity that kept Epstein's network intact long after it should have collapsed.And that's not even the worst of what Glenn Dubin has been accused of...to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-epstein-chronicles--5003294/support.

This Day in Legal History: Rosa Parks ArrestedOn December 1, 1955, Rosa Parks was arrested in Montgomery, Alabama, for refusing to surrender her seat to a white passenger on a segregated city bus. Parks, a 42-year-old Black seamstress and longtime activist, had been sitting in the “colored” section when the driver demanded she move. Her quiet but firm defiance violated local segregation laws, which mandated racial separation in public transportation and required Black passengers to yield seats to white passengers when buses became crowded. Parks' arrest became a catalyst for the Montgomery Bus Boycott, a coordinated campaign to end racial segregation on public transit.The boycott began four days later, organized by the Montgomery Improvement Association, with a then-unknown Martin Luther King Jr. as its president. It lasted over a year, during which thousands of Black residents refused to use the city's buses, severely impacting the transit system's finances. The protest was not only a powerful act of collective resistance but also a carefully structured legal challenge. Civil rights attorneys, including Fred Gray, filed a federal lawsuit—Browder v. Gayle—on behalf of several Black women who had experienced bus segregation.In November 1956, the federal district court ruled that Montgomery's segregated bus system was unconstitutional under the Equal Protection Clause of the Fourteenth Amendment. The U.S. Supreme Court affirmed the decision, and on December 20, 1956, the boycott officially ended when the Court's ruling was implemented. Rosa Parks' arrest and the movement it sparked marked a turning point in the American civil rights struggle. Her individual act of resistance ignited a mass movement and set the stage for future legal and social change.The U.S. Supreme Court will hear a key copyright case today involving Cox Communications and several major record labels, including Sony, Warner, and Universal. The case centers on whether Cox can be held financially liable for allegedly enabling its users to illegally download music. A jury originally awarded the labels $1 billion in 2019 after finding Cox secondarily liable for over 10,000 copyright infringements, but the 4th Circuit Court of Appeals later reversed part of that decision, leading to a retrial on damages.Cox argues it shouldn't be held accountable for users' actions, warning that a ruling against it could force ISPs to terminate internet access for entire households or public institutions over alleged piracy. The company claims it reasonably handled piracy reports and criticized the notion that it failed to act. In contrast, the labels accuse Cox of ignoring thousands of infringement notices and protecting profitable repeat offenders while readily cutting off nonpaying customers.Big tech companies like Google, Amazon, and Microsoft have sided with Cox, suggesting that a ruling for the labels could harm the internet economy. Meanwhile, the Trump administration—represented by Solicitor General John Sauer—is supporting Cox's view that merely knowing about piracy isn't enough to establish liability. Industry groups in music, film, and publishing back the labels, arguing that Cox's stance threatens collaborative anti-piracy efforts. The Supreme Court's decision could reshape how ISPs respond to copyright violations.US Supreme Court to hear copyright dispute between Cox and record labels | ReutersFollowing a deadly shooting in Washington, D.C., involving an Afghan immigrant accused of killing a National Guard member, President Donald Trump has intensified efforts to restrict legal immigration. Within 48 hours of the attack, Trump paused Afghan immigration applications, launched a review of asylum approvals from the Biden era, and hinted at expanded vetting under his existing travel ban targeting 19 countries. These moves revive and build upon restrictive immigration policies from Trump's first term, now framed as necessary for national security.Critics argue the administration is exploiting a tragic but isolated incident to justify sweeping immigration rollbacks. Afghan advocacy groups stressed that Afghan immigrants undergo extensive vetting and should not be broadly blamed. While Trump and top officials suggested large-scale reforms—like ending federal benefits for non-citizens and denaturalizing those deemed a threat—federal agencies have so far announced more limited actions, such as case reviews for applicants from travel-ban countries.Legal experts warn that some of the proposed policies, including denying welfare to lawful residents and mass denaturalization, would likely be ruled unconstitutional. Nonetheless, the administration is signaling an aggressive stance, despite polls showing declining public approval of Trump's immigration policies. Meanwhile, Democrats accuse Trump of targeting law-abiding immigrants and using fear-based tactics for political gain.Trump sharpens focus on legal immigration after National Guard shooting | ReutersA federal judge's decision to ban generative AI from his chambers after an intern used it in a flawed court opinion has sparked debate over how technology should be used in the legal system. Judge Julien Neals of New Jersey attributed the error in a June ruling to a law student who used AI in violation of their school's policy, prompting Neals to prohibit AI use entirely among his staff. His response to Senator Chuck Grassley drew concern from legal academics and judges who argue that banning AI outright may be shortsighted.Proponents of AI in the judiciary say the technology, if used responsibly, could reduce case backlogs and improve efficiency amid staffing shortages. Judge Xavier Rodriguez of Texas ran an experiment comparing traditional opinion writing with AI-assisted drafting, showing significant time savings without sacrificing quality. He and others advocate for structured AI use, emphasizing vetting, fact-checking, and clear protocols to preserve judicial integrity.Magistrate Judge Allison Goddard and law professors like David Kemp suggest that instead of bans, institutions should focus on teaching students ethical and effective AI use. With many law students already accustomed to using generative AI, schools are scrambling to develop policies and training. Some institutions, like the University of Chicago Law School, have embraced AI integration, while others lag behind. The incident in Judge Neals' courtroom has become a wake-up call for courts and law schools to align on responsible AI use in legal education and practice.Judges' AI Blunders Spark Debate on Technology Use in CourtsLuigi Mangione, accused of killing UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson in a high-profile shooting outside a Manhattan hotel, appeared in court today for key pretrial hearings. The 27-year-old, arrested in December 2024, has pleaded not guilty to murder and multiple related charges in both state and federal cases. The hearings will determine whether crucial evidence—including a 3-D printed gun, silencer, and journal writings found in Mangione's backpack—can be used at trial. His defense argues that the items were obtained through an illegal search during his arrest in Pennsylvania and that statements he made to police should also be excluded.Prosecutors dispute those claims and are seeking to admit the materials, which they argue implicate Mangione in the killing. Mangione, who has gained a controversial following among critics of the U.S. healthcare system, faces life in prison if convicted of second-degree murder. In a separate federal case, prosecutors intend to seek the death penalty. Earlier in September, two terrorism charges were dismissed after a judge ruled there was insufficient evidence Mangione intended to intimidate healthcare workers or influence government policy.The hearings, overseen by Judge Gregory Carro, are expected to last through the week and include testimony from arresting officers. No trial date has yet been set, and Mangione remains in federal custody in Brooklyn.Luigi Mangione due in court for pretrial hearings over US healthcare executive's killing | Reuters This is a public episode.

Jennifer Araoz filed a lawsuit against the Epstein Estate, alleging she was groomed and sexually assaulted by Jeffrey Epstein when she was a teenager. The lawsuit claims that Araoz was recruited outside her New York City high school by Epstein's associates, who promised career opportunities and financial support. Over time, Epstein allegedly coerced her into repeated sexual encounters, culminating in a rape at his Manhattan townhouse when she was just 15 years old. Araoz contends that Epstein's vast network of accomplices played an active role in enabling the abuse by fostering an environment of manipulation and control.The lawsuit not only targets Epstein's estate but also implicates other individuals and entities that Araoz claims facilitated his criminal activities. Seeking both justice and compensation, Araoz's suit is part of a broader legal effort by Epstein's survivors to hold those connected to his network accountable. The case underscores the alleged systemic nature of Epstein's operations, highlighting the complicity of those who worked with him to sustain his predatory behavior.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:Jeffrey Epstein ST-19-PB-80 Additional filings (003).pdf (vicourts.org)

SHOW 11-28-25 CBS EYE ON THE WORLD WITH JOHN BATCHELOR 1963   The Genius of Early Photography: Nadar, Daguerre, and Dangerous Chemistry — Anika Burgess — Burgess details the risky and adventurous origins of photography as a practical medium. She examines Nadar, a visionary figure who deployed a giant balloon named Léon to fund experiments in heavier-than-air flight, having previously conducted innovative photographic expeditions into Paris's catacombs. Burgess also recounts Daguerre's 1839 presentation of the daguerreotype—a remarkably realistic, singular image created using hazardous chemicals including iodine and mercury, which posed significant occupational and health risks to early practitioners. Early Photography's Scientific Reach: Lunar and Underwater Photography — Anika Burgess — Burgessexplores early photography's critical scientific applications, noting that François Arago predicted the daguerreotype would enable detailed mapping of the lunar surface. Early astrophotographers encountered formidable technical challenges involving distance calculations, celestial motion, and insufficient ambient light. James Nasmyth controversially photographed plaster casts and molds of the lunar surface, which contemporary observers praised as scientifically truthful. Burgess also highlights Louis Boutan, who persistently developed practical underwater photography using pressurized hard-hat diving equipment, establishing a new scientific capability. Photography and Social Justice: Riis, Watkins, and the Question of Truth — Anika Burgess — Burgessdemonstrates how photography became a transformative tool for social advocacy and reform. Jacob Riis, a newspaper journalist documenting Manhattan's tenement poverty, employed flash powder ignited in cast-iron frying pans to photograph the grim, overcrowded interior conditions of slums for his landmark book How the Other Half Lives, frequently without obtaining subject consent. Burgess also discusses Carleton Watkins, who transported over 2,000 pounds of large-format photographic equipment to Yosemite Valley, producing images that proved instrumental in securing federal preservation and protection of the landscape. From X-Rays to Motion Pictures: Expanding the Photographic Medium — Anika Burgess — Burgess traces the expansion of photographic technology beyond conventional image capture. She examines Alice Austin'sintimate and playful photographs documenting her social circle with candid authenticity. The discovery of X-raysby Wilhelm Röntgen was rapidly branded as "the new photography" or "shadow photography," adopted swiftly for both entertainment and medical diagnostic applications despite practitioners possessing no understanding of severe radiation hazards. Burgess concludes with Paul Martin's candid street photography using concealed cameras hidden within top hats and Eadweard Muybridge's sequential motion studies, which directly enabled the invention of motion pictures. Angelica Schuyler: Albany, Elopement, and the Start of the Revolution — Molly Beer — Beer discusses her book Angelica, focusing on Angelica Schuyler Church, daughter of General Philip Schuyler. Her mother, Katherine, oversaw construction of their Albany residence, The Pastures, a substantial estate reflecting family prominence. Angelica received a rigorous education consistent with Dutch cultural traditions emphasizing women's financial and business literacy for family management. In 1777, during Burgoyne's invasion of New York, Angelica profoundly disappointed her mother by eloping with John Carter, an Englishman she found intellectually engaging and cosmopolitan. Angelica and the Founders: The Revolution and the Hamilton Connection — Molly Beer — Beer examines Angelica's pivotal role during the American Revolution, including her service alongside Rochambeau's army, traveling to Yorktown shortly after delivering her third child. Her sister Elizabeth ("Betsy") married Alexander Hamilton, who deliberately married into the prominent Schuyler family to elevate his social standing and political prospects. Following the war, Angelica's eldest son, Philip, founded the town of Angelica in western New York, the community where Beer herself was subsequently raised. Angelica in Europe: John Church, London Society, and Diplomacy — Molly Beer — Following ratification of the peace treaty, Angelica and her husband sailed to Paris to collect outstanding payments owed by the Frenchgovernment. John Carter leveraged the wartime amnesty to settle accumulated debts, reconcile with his estranged family, and legally adopt the name John Barker Church. Angelica relocated to London's elegant Mayfairneighborhood, where she established herself as a prominent American patriot. She strategically positioned herself at the intersection of cultural and diplomatic negotiations, entertaining influential figures including Lafayette and the Adamses, while exerting subtle influence over American diplomatic representatives toward negotiated peace. Angelica's Later Life: Return, Tragedy, and Founding Angelica, NY — Molly Beer — Angelica visited the United States for President Washington's 1789 inauguration but quickly returned to London, disappointed that the nascent republic fell short o Woke Capitalism: Origins, ESG, DEI, and the Power of BlackRock — Charles Gasparino — Gasparinotraces the origins of "woke capitalism," detailing how corporate America shareholder returns toward stakeholder capitalism models. L The Flashpoints of Woke Capitalism: Occupy Wall Street and the SEC — Charles Gasparino — Gasparinoidentifies the 2008 financial crisis and the ensuing progressive populist backlash, including the Occupy Wall Streetencampment at Zuccotti Park, as pivotal flashpoints accelerating corporate woke adoption.... Disney and ESPN: Running a Blue Company in a Red State — Charles Gasparino — Gasparino analyzes the radicalization of the Walt Disney Company, noting that CEO Bob Iger brought progressive cultural affinities while the company.... Go Woke, Go Broke: The Financial Backlash and Corporate Retreat — Charles Gasparino — Gasparinoreports that woke capitalism is experiencing significant financial retrenchment as corporations suffer bottom-line consequences... Freedom's Forge: FDR, WWII Mobilization, and Bill Knudsen — Arthur Herman — Herman discusses his book Freedom's Forge, detailing the extraordinary challenge FDR confronted in May 1940 to prepare America for modern industrial warfare. The preeminent industrialist summoned for this task was Bill Knudsen, CEO of General Motors. Knudsen, a Danish immigrant and former Ford executive, possessed unparalleled expertise in flexible mass production—the capacity to modify production line processes continuously while maintaining output. Knudsen applied these revolutionary manufacturing techniques to transform the American automobile industry into an "Arsenal of Democracy," producing critical war materiel including military trucks and armored tanks. Henry Kaiser: The Builder of Liberty Ships — Arthur Herman — Herman profiles Henry Kaiser, the second transformative figure in Freedom's Forge. Kaiser, a road construction entrepreneur who had previously coordinated monumental infrastructure projects including the Boulder Dam, demonstrated relentless commitment to ambitious thinking and delivery ahead of schedule and under budget constraints. In late 1940, Kaiser persuaded both Britishand American governments to contract him to construct "throwaway freighters"—Liberty ships—despite possessing no prior shipbuilding experience. Between 1941 and 1945, Kaiser successfully built 2,710 Liberty ships, fundamentally enabling Allied logistics and supply operations. The B-29 Superfortress and the Battle of Omaha — Arthur Herman — Herman recounts the genesis of the B-29 Superfortress bomber, conceived after General Hap Arnold consulted with Charles Lindbergh in 1939. The B-29 represented the ultimate expression of air supremacy doctrine, demanding revolutionary technologies including pressurized crew cabins and remote-controlled gun turrets that did not yet exist. Bill Knudsen directed the program, overcoming severe delays and persistent technical deficiencies. Knudsen won the "Battle of Omaha" by insisting that aircraft be extensively modified after assembly to achieve operational flight status, thereby integrating a massive female industrial workforce into B-29 production processes. Lessons from WWII: Unleashing Private Enterprise — Arthur Herman — Herman explores the strategic tension during WWII between New Deal administrators favoring centralized government command and industrialists prioritizing private sector innovation and operational flexibility. FDR and Knudsen learned from the disastrous centralized economic control failures of WWI, choosing instead to permit American private enterprise to "determine production methodologies and develop solutions for urgent national requirements." The fundamental secret to Allied victory was unleashing private sector dynamism, entrepreneurial expertise, and competitive energy. Herman draws contemporary parallels, arguing that modern defense strategy must replicate this model, contrasting bureaucratic NASA operations with innovative private enterprises including SpaceX.
