Proof continues to pile up on the Biden crime family, as massive evidence comes out that one of Hunter's Chinese linked companies directly paid Joe Biden!?

Last week, a Virgin Atlantic passenger jet traveled from London to New York powered 100% by sustainable aviation fuel, or SAF.  The low-carbon fuel came from feedstock that included used cooking oil and waste animal fats. Critics call the flight a gimmick, and to be clear, right now SAF makes up a tiny slice of the fuels airlines use to get us places. Marketplace's Lily Jamali spoke with Louise Burke, an energy analyst and vice president of business development at Argus Media, who says that could change.

We’re less than a year out from the 2024 presidential election. And former President Donald Trump is still leading the pack of Republican candidates, by a lot. This has us wondering: What would another Trump presidency mean for the economy? On the show today, William Howell, professor of American politics at the University of Chicago explains how Trump’s plans to weaken the federal bureaucracy could disrupt the economy, how the former president’s proposals on immigration and Obamacare could go over, and what voters see in his economic agenda. Plus, what this could all mean for our democracy. Then, we'll get into a major data breach at the genetic testing company 23andMe. And, Moody’s lowered China’s credit outlook to negative. We’ll unpack what that means for China and what it has to do with political dysfunction in the U.S. Later, thoughts on COP28 and some impressive Spotify Wrapped stats. Plus, what the owner of a gift wrapping service had wrong when she started her business. Here’s everything we talked about today: “Where Donald Trump stands on taxes, the economy” from The Washington Post “The Republican Party's Split on Economics” from The New York Times “Trump’s plans if he returns to the White House include deportation raids, tariffs and mass firings” from AP News “Some Republicans sound alarm after Trump revives focus on Obamacare” from CNN Politics “Why the Supreme Court’s “administrative state” decision matters” from Marketplace “What Trump's Second Term Could Look Like” from The Atlantic “Moody's Cuts China Credit Outlook to Negative on Rising Debt” from Bloomberg “Why invest in gold when the economic outlook isn’t great?” from Marketplace “Data Breach at 23andMe Affects 6.9 Million Profiles, Company Says” from The New York Times “23andMe confirms hackers stole ancestry data on 6.9 million users” from TechCrunch If you've got a question, comment or submission for a state drink, send them our way.

Welcome to the Shawn Bolz Show where we look at current events, the entertainment world, and what is happening around the globe from a Christian discerning perspective that hopefully inspires you to keep looking for what God is doing in the midst of what is going wrong. Today on the show Lecrae opens up about his messy but awesome faith process, we are going to talk about some New Epstien information including the epstein list which was dropped by daily mail in UK, but we are going to end on such a high note by talking about 5 revival activities that shaped our faith in 2023 and does this point at a revival that will hit the world in 2024?  But my prophetic perspective is also all about how 2024 is going to be a very hard year as far as politics, natural disasters, economic issues, and mental illness, but you can live above it and prepare now so you don't fall prey to the spiritual warfare as it unfolds! God is doing more but you have to be proactive in your faith! Hold onto your seat, this is an intense but hope filled ride to give you a fresh perspective and it starts now!  All of this and more on today's show!  My Website:  www.bolzministries.com or Download the free Bolz Ministries App for all of this in one easy place.

When Section 702 became law in 2008, the intelligence community argued collecting phone calls, texts, and emails of people outside of the U.S. could protect against terrorism. But the communications of many Americans have also been collected, all without the required warrants. Now, Section 702 is set to expire at the end of the month. Marketplace's Lily Jamali spoke with Elizabeth Goitein, senior director of liberty and national security at the Brennan Center for Justice, about what members of Congress are considering as they decide whether to extend Section 702.

>>> Watch our free Revenue Management training at https://www.getpaidforyourpad.com/cfm-replay>>> FREE E-Book: 5 Most Common Airbnb Revenue Management Mistakes>>> Click here to downloadIn this episode of "Get Paid For Your Pad," I had the pleasure of chatting with Brooke Pfautz, the founder of Ventori and Comparent, a vacation rental management platform. We delved into some exciting topics, so let's get started.Brooke kicked things off by discussing his book, "Vacation Rental Secrets," which is packed with insights from industry experts. One common theme throughout the book is the importance of avoiding quick fixes when facing challenges. Brooke emphasized that mistakes often arise from the desire to find a quick solution instead of the right one.One major challenge discussed was hiring the right talent for vacation rental management. Brooke stressed the significance of vetting potential hires upfront and using tools like predictive personality assessments from predictiveindex.com. These tools reveal the true personality of candidates, not just their interview personas, helping in making the right hiring choices.We also dived into Brooke's latest venture, Comparent, a platform connecting vacation rental homeowners with professional vacation rental managers. Comparent aims to provide transparency and help homeowners make informed decisions about property management. Property managers can claim their listings for free, and in the future, it will serve as a valuable resource for property managers and homeowners alike.During our conversation, Brooke highlighted the potential for property managers to use Comparent to demonstrate their credibility to homeowners. By showcasing their high ratings and reviews, property managers can gain an edge in a competitive market.Brooke's passion for elevating the vacation rental industry is evident, and Comparent is poised to be a game-changer. If you're in the vacation rental management business, it's worth exploring the platform at comparent.com.Before we wrap up today's episode, remember to connect with us on Instagram @getpaidforyourpad for exclusive content and behind-the-scenes moments, and don't forget to hit that 'Subscribe' button on our YouTube channel.

When purchasing a product, you expect it to work, especially when you are purchasing from a retailer as massive as Amazon. If a product you purchased online causes injuries, you have the right to hold the parties involved in the chain of distribution liable. This includes Amazon even if it was only “fulfilled by Amazon.” In this episode, Rebecca Wright and Steve Alsip discuss the continued evolution of the liability of online retailers.  We also encourage you to listen to our 2019 episode, Liability and the Online Marketplace, which was refreshed as our previous episode, in which Steve and Rebecca discuss the history of these arguments.  We encourage you to listen to that first episode to familiarize yourself with the arguments and how these decisions are changing over time.  We have no doubt that they will continue to change.

This time of year, companies tend to open their wallets and choose where they choose to advertise. Those ad dollars are the lifeblood of X, the former Twitter. In the last quarter of 2021, almost 90% of Twitter’s revenue came from ads. That business model was already showing signs of wear after when Elon Musk took over. Now, as the Israel-Hamas war rages on, a new controversial post by Musk has accelerated the flight of advertisers. New York Times journalist Ryan Mac spoke with Marketplace’s Lily Jamali about how the fallout of fleeing advertisers could affect the platform.

Yvonne was described by everyone that met her to be the light of every room. She was positive, outgoing, and wasn't afraid to have fun and live life to the fullest. Yvonne had a lust for life and a passion for doing what scared her. So when her boyfriend of 3 years, Brian Bringer, suggests they move to Panama and live on the beaches and enjoy their lives together with his military benefits, Yvonne jumps at the opportunity. It wasn't until November of 2011, 3 months after the couple landed when Yvonne's family would never hear from Yvonne again. Police would later uncover that Brian had been living a double life with a wife and child living in his Southern California home. So now with Yvonne nowhere to be found, all eyes are on Brian for the answers. And the answers, are more horrific than imagined.  Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
