Send us Fan MailBill Bartholomew talks with Katie Sonder, Associate Director and Fellow at the Salve Regina University Pell Center, about the center's August 2026 Voices of Value poll and what it says about Rhode Island's Democratic and Republican primary races. The conversation focuses on the headline McKee-Folkes result, the unusually high number of undecided voters, and how academic polling can fill a gap left by shrinking local media polling.Bill Bartholomew frames the poll, questions the methodology, and argues that academic polling is becoming more important as traditional outlets poll less often. Katie Sonder explains the survey design, the likely-voter screen, the two-step question process for undecided respondents, and why the Pell Center launched the project in the first place.Key topicsIn this episode, the main headline is the Democratic gubernatorial primary poll showing Helena Folkes ahead of incumbent Governor Dan McKee, 48% to 28%.Katie Sonder says the most surprising finding is the size of the undecided bloc, especially in down-ballot races like Lieutenant Governor and Attorney General, where nearly half of likely voters are unsure.Sonder explains the poll's two-question method for undecideds: respondents first pick among candidates, then are asked again if they have to choose.The Pell Center's Voices of Value project is designed to track Rhode Island views on state issues and national issues, including democracy, polarization, media habits, legislation, and bridge reconstruction.Bill and Katie discuss the broader role of academia in polling and journalism as local media budgets shrink and fewer outlets produce their own statewide polls.Sonder says the Pell Center sees the poll as a public good and a bridge between the university and the community.On the Democratic side, Sonder points to crowded fields and lower name recognition as reasons for uncertainty in races like Lieutenant Governor and Attorney General.Bill notes that in the Lieutenant Governor race, Sabina Matos and Zay Collin are near the top, but the undecided share remains very high.In the Attorney General race, Kim Ahern leads the pack, but 46% of voters are still unsure.The Senate discussion turns to the three-way race involving Jack Reed, Connor Burbridge, and Dr. Luis Daniel Munoz, with Bill arguing that Burbridge's 12% reflects real campaign momentum.On the Republican side, Sonder explains that the smaller sample size means a larger margin of error, but Elaine Poirino still holds a notable lead over Aaron and Jukian.Bill emphasizes the transparency of the Pell Center's materials, including the report, crosstabs, methodology, and survey questions.Timestamps00:00 - New Pell Center poll and the McKee-Folkes Democratic primary headline00:44 - Katie Sonder on the biggest surprise: the undecided vote02:30 - How the poll's two-step undecided question works04:49 - Why the Pell Center launched Voices of Value06:03 - Academia, journalism, and the shrinking local polling ecosystem07:14 - Why the Pell Center sees polling as a public service10:48 - How Katie thinks about reliability and academic rigor11:30 - Why down-ballot races have so many undecided voters12:40 - Using the poll to inform voters and candidate research13:10 - Jack Reed race, Connor Burbridge, and campaign momentum14:10 - Lieutenant governor race read: Matos, Zay Collin, and weak showings14:40 - Republican primary polling challenges and Elaine Poirino's lead15:28 - Sample size, margin of error, and confidence on the GOP side16:44 - Why the Republican race remains too fluid to call18:39 - Where to find the report, crosstabs, methodology, and survey questions19:24 - Transparency, expertise, and why the poll matters in the civic landscape Support the showFollow Bill on Instagram and YouTube

Operation Midnight Hammer through the eyes of the people who flew it. Capt. Williams and MSgt. Matos led F-16 maintenance for the 55th, keeping the jets flying for the Wild Weasels who flew Suppression of Enemy Air Defenses ahead of the B-2 strike on Iran. Watch the three-part documentary series on Afterburn Defense: Part I: https://youtu.be/MgQ_X3Td8a4 Part II: https://youtu.be/GzdL6NMYDso Part III: https://youtu.be/Xc22-2RaGSY This is the full interview. Nobody told them what was coming. The configuration changes did. In this conversation, they explain what it actually takes to put one jet in the air, how a young maintenance team learned under pressure, why the flight hours downrange ran far past anything they see at home, and the airman who did not get to work the night of the strike. Before Iran, the 55th Fighter Squadron fought over Yemen in Operation Rough Rider, a sustained air campaign against Houthi surface-to-air threats. What they learned there is the reason the F-16 Block 50 and the AGM-88 HARM were part of the strike package on June 21st, 2025. These interviews were recorded between December 2025 and January 2026 and preserve firsthand accounts from pilots, maintainers, intelligence officers, and logistics airmen who were there. 0:00 Getting the Jets Out the Door 7:03 Maintainers Working Across Airframes 9:49 Rough Rider and a Young Maintenance Team 15:54 The Configuration Changes That Tipped Us Off 18:07 What It Takes to Generate One Sortie 20:36 Maintenance Roles During Midnight Hammer 25:09 The Airman We Benched on the Super Bowl Have a story?

Neste episódio da Comissão Política, analisamos a posição do ministro da Administração Interna e do primeiro-ministro na crise do “monte verde” e do “reboque” da droga. A Judiciária pediu uma auditoria ao tempo da gestão de Luís Neves e o primeiro-ministro aprovou, através da ministra da Justiça. Quando há “dúvidas, elas devem ser desfeitas”, disse Luís Montenegro esta segunda-feira. Mesmo mantendo a confiança política em Luís Neves, sem saber o resultado da auditoria, parece que o PM tem dúvidas sobre a sua gestão à frente da polícia. É possível confiar e desconfiar de um ministro ao mesmo tempo? Os comentários são de Paula Caeiro Varela, jornalista do Expresso, de Eunice Lourenço, editora de Política, e de David Dinis, diretor-adjunto, com a moderação de Vítor Matos.

Dans cet épisode, nous abordons un sujet essentiel, souvent évoqué mais rarement approfondi : l'éthique clinique.Notre invité, Jean Matos, accompagne depuis des années les établissements médico-sociaux dans la mise en place d'espaces de réflexion éthique. Son approche est claire : l'éthique n'apporte pas des solutions toutes faites, elle aide à se poser les bonnes questions.L'éthique clinique, c'est apprendre à regarder autrement les situations de soin, à prendre du recul, à adapter sa pratique à chaque personne. Ce n'est pas une théorie lointaine, mais un outil concret de bientraitance et de discernement collectif.Au fil de la discussion, plusieurs dilemmes du quotidien sont évoqués : la contention, la consommation d'alcool, la sexualité, le temps accordé à chacun… Autant de situations où les valeurs d'autonomie, de sécurité, de liberté ou de bienfaisance peuvent entrer en tension.Jean Matos rappelle l'importance d'un regard extérieur, d'un facilitateur éthique capable de libérer la parole des équipes, de créer un espace d'échange où chacun, quel que soit son rôle, peut exprimer son ressenti sans jugement.Car l'éthique, c'est d'abord une éthique de la discussion.Les établissements sont aujourd'hui invités à formaliser cette démarche.Les nouvelles grilles d'évaluation intègrent l'éthique au même titre que la qualité du soin ou la bientraitance.Mettre en place un comité éthique, c'est offrir un lieu d'éclairage et non de décision, un espace pour prévenir les tensions avant qu'elles ne deviennent des “malaises profonds” dans les équipes.Autre sujet émergent : l'intelligence artificielle en EHPAD.Des outils comme les robots d'accompagnement ouvrent de nouvelles perspectives thérapeutiques, mais posent aussi de vraies questions éthiques.Jean Matos invite à ne pas craindre ces technologies, mais à les apprivoiser avec lucidité : ni fascination, ni rejet, mais réflexion.Son message est simple :Prendre le temps de la réflexion éthique, c'est prendre soin de ceux qui soignent.C'est un investissement gagnant : des équipes plus apaisées, des pratiques plus justes, un accompagnement plus humain.

Episode Notes Notes go hereRabbi Shulman addresses the apparent tension in the Torah's treatment of נדרים and שבועות: Chazal often criticize making vows, yet the Torah opens Parashat Matot with the laws of nedarim and even allows for their annulment. He explains (based on Rav Tzadok and the Zohar) that vows are spiritually valid only when a person's רצון is profoundly aligned with רצון ה׳—to the point of “זה הדבר,” where speech becomes a vehicle for דבר ה׳. Hatarat nedarim then functions as a corrective mechanism when vows emerge from confused or misguided רצון rather than authentic דבקות.

Sicha 270: Matos Maasei Thu. Jul. 9, 2026 | Tammuz 24, 5786 Chelek chof ches page 210This week's Sicha learning is in honor of:The Sirota family, celebrating the birth of Esther Sirota on 24 Tammuz, with wishes of L'Torah, L'Chuppah, U'Maasim Tovim and many continued simchos.An anonymous sponsor in honor of her birthday.Chana Miriam Huebner, in honor of her son Nosson's birthday on 24 Tammuz.Shaina Zirkind, l'ilui nishmas Harav HaChassid R. Simcha Yerachmiel ben R. Mordechai Shachneh Zirkind, on his 11th yahrtzeit, 24 Tammuz.The upcoming yahrtzeit of Rabbi Vichnin, a beloved and inspiring mechanech, on 26 Tammuz.The Rebbe teaches that the territory east of the Jordan can represent either a compromise with exile or the beginning of redemption. Gad and Reuven chose it for material reasons, but Menashe received it from Moshe as part of Hashem's plan to extend the holiness of Eretz Yisrael and prepare for the ultimate expansion of its borders in the era of Moshiach. The key is attitude: a Jew may be sent beyond familiar boundaries on a holy mission, yet must never lose the deep love for Eretz Yisrael or become settled in golus. Like Menashe, we are called to remember our true home, reject the mentality of exile, and use every place we find ourselves to advance Moshe's vision and bring the Geulah closer.
Parshas Matos & Massei: The Real Battle Season 8 Episode 35 | #366 The war against Midian was over, yet Moshe declared the mission incomplete. Why? In this episode, we explore Rashi's explanation and the Alter Rebbe's profound insight from Tanya, revealing that the greatest battles are not always fought on the battlefield. Discover why the greatest threat to the Jewish people has never been external enemies alone, but anything that weakens our connection with G-d and our true purpose. ✨ The most important battle is not against the world around us, but against whatever pulls us away from who we are meant to become.
In this Parsha Review Podcast episode on the double portion Matos-Masei, Rabbi Aryeh Wolbe explores the continuation of Pinchas' story from last week. As the Jewish people prepare for war against Midian, Moshe sends 1,000 men from each tribe along with Pinchas — carrying the sacred vessels and trumpets. Rashi explains that Pinchas was singled out because he had begun the mitzvah of zealously defending Hashem's honor and was therefore told to complete it. The episode also highlights the Midrashic connection between Pinchas and Yosef through his mother's lineage (Putiel / Yisro).Rabbi Wolbe focuses on the seven names of Yisro, particularly “Putiel.” While it can be interpreted negatively (fattening calves for idol worship), it can also be seen positively: Yisro was at the “fat” (peak) of his illustrious career and sacrificed everything to join the Jewish people. This leads to a powerful discussion on perspective — choosing to see the positive in people, situations, spouses, children, and even world events.The episode ties beautifully into the Three Weeks: lasting change in avoiding Lashon Hara comes not from simply stopping negative speech, but from changing how we view others. Rabbi Wolbe encourages judging the whole person favorably (kol ha'adam l'kaf zechus), practicing hakaras hatov (gratitude), and refusing to be kafui tov (one who rejects the good done for us). He applies this to family life, parenting, and current events, urging listeners to avoid knee-jerk negativity from media narratives._____________This episode of the Parsha Review Podcast is dedicated in honor of Lenny & Teresa FriedmanDownload & Print the Parsha Review Notes:https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1ncaRyoH5iJmGGoMZs9y82Hz2ofViVouv?usp=sharingRecorded at TORCH Meyerland in the Levin Family Studios (B) to a live audience on July 7, 2026, in Houston, Texas.Released as Podcast on July 9, 2026_____________Subscribe: Apple Podcasts (https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/parsha-review-podcast-rabbi-aryeh-wolbe/id1651930083)Spotify (https://open.spotify.com/show/22lv1kXJob5ZNLaAl6CHTQ) to stay inspired!

Confira os destaques do Jornal da Manhã desta terça-feira (07): O governo brasileiro elevou o tom e reagiu oficialmente contra a pressão dos EUA. Em carta enviada ao Escritório do Representante Comercial dos EUA (USTR), o Ministério das Relações Exteriores classificou como "arbitrária" e desprovida de base legal a investigação americana que acusa o Brasil de usar trabalho forçado nas cadeias produtivas. Em documento assinado pelo chanceler Mauro Vieira, o Itamaraty admitiu formalmente que a decisão unilateral de Washington de classificar o Primeiro Comando da Capital (PCC) e o Comando Vermelho (CV) como organizações terroristas globais abre um precedente perigoso, uma vez que a legislação antiterrorismo americana autoriza ações extraterritoriais. O senador Flávio Bolsonaro (PL-RJ) confirmou que fará um pronunciamento oficial em Washington nesta terça-feira e atuará como um interlocutor estratégico para tentar blindar o Brasil do severo tarifaço de 25% avaliado pela administração de Donald Trump. Em manifestação enviada ao Supremo Tribunal Federal (STF), o procurador-geral da República, Paulo Gonet, defendeu que os autos do inquérito retornem à Polícia Federal para que o senador Flávio Bolsonaro (PL-RJ) preste depoimento formal.

Matos destacou a diplomacia no setor privado e o interesse de ambas as partes em interpretar os riscos econômicos para as possíveis novas taxações. Os ministros do STF, Alexandre de Moraes, Flávio Dino, Cristiano Zanin e Gilmar Mendes emitiram despachos coordenados intimando os presidentes de sete Tribunais de Justiça estaduais (DF, GO, MA, PR, RJ, RS e RO) a prestarem explicações detalhadas em um prazo máximo de 48 horas sobre penduricalhos pagos a juízes acima do teto. A Polícia Federal sacudiu o tabuleiro político fluminense ao deflagrar, na manhã desta terça-feira (7), a sexta fase da Operação Unha e Carne. Entre os alvos centrais de mandados de busca e apreensão está o ex-prefeito de Belford Roxo e atual pré-candidato ao Senado, Márcio Canella (União Brasil).
