South Bend Cubs starting pitcher Ryan Gallagher made his third professional start against the Beloit Sky Carp in a mid-afternoon game at a somewhat windy Four Winds Field. Gallagher came out sharp, retiring the first eight batters he faced consecutively before allowing an infield hit. That infield single eventually came around to score in the top of the third inning, tying the game at one apiece. The South Bend Cubs had gotten on the board early, plating a run in the bottom of the first. Jefferson Rojas led off with a single and later scored when Ariel Armas lined a base hit to left field for an RBI single off Beloit starter Jake Brooks. In the bottom of the third, the Cubs threatened again, loading the bases after Armas was hit by a pitch. Edgar Alvarez followed with a single over the infield, scoring Ivan Brethowr and Andy Garriola to give South Bend a 3–1 lead. Armas was thrown out at the plate trying to score on the same play, ending the rally. Gallagher kept the momentum going with a scoreless top of the fourth, but ran into trouble in the fifth. He gave up two runs before being replaced by reliever Joe Nahas. The Sky Carp tied the game at 3–3. In the top of the sixth, Nahas struggled early, allowing the first two batters to reach base. He then committed a balk, moving the runners to second and third with nobody out. Colby Shade doubled to right field, scoring Ryan Ignoffo and moving Yiddi Cappe to third, giving Beloit a 4–3 lead. Michael Snyder followed with a single to left field, scoring both Cappe and Shade to extend the Sky Carp lead to 6–3. After the damage, Nahas managed to get the Cubs out of the inning by inducing an inning-ending double play to stop the bleeding. In the top of the seventh, Johzan Oquendo came in to relieve Nahas. He walked the bases loaded but stood strong under pressure, managing to keep the Sky Carp from scoring any more runs and keeping the Cubs within striking distance. In the bottom of the eighth, the Cubs made a strong push, hitting two rockets, one of which was snagged in the outfield and the other stopped by a great play in the infield. The Cubs were unable to get anything going, as the Sky Carp defense held firm, preventing a rally from forming. In the top of the eighth, Cubs pitcher Sam Thoresen struck out the side, keeping the Cubs in the game. However, while warming up for the top of the ninth, something happened, forcing him to leave the game before he could pitch the inning. Marino Santy came in to relieve Thoresen but struggled, issuing a few walks. The Sky Carp capitalized, scoring a run to extend their lead to 7–3. The Cubs made a last-ditch effort in the bottom of the ninth, loading the bases with two outs. However, a ground out ended the game, and the Sky Carp secured a 7–3 victory. On a positive note, Edgar Alvarez had his first multi-hit game of the season, showing promising signs of consistency at the plate. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
Trump seems to have miscalculated when it comes to trying to bully China into a trade deal. Trump says he is making progress with China, but hasnt offered any specifics. China says it is not even engaged in any negotiations with the U.S. The country is working to form an international trade coalition that will exclude the United States. Add that to a rocky ride for investors, concerns about the dollar and a come to Jesus meeting with the CEOs of Target, Walmart and Home Depot and Trump is blinking first, softening his position on tariffs and caving to pressure as China digs in. We've got journalists Michael Shure and Jim Avila on the show today to lay it all out. We'll check in on those crazy kids in Florida and find out about the latest movie and streaming options with the Culture Blaster, Michael Snyder.

The Signal scandal may have been touched off by National Security Advisor Mike Waltz, but it's highlighting the inexperience of Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth.

It's a cat and mouse game of will there or won't there be tariffs. Today's answer is wildly different from yesterday's and last week's. Now, carmakers are getting a pause on 25% import levies until early April. Other items covered by the North America's free trade pact are also exempt including televisions, air conditioners, avocados and beef. What will tomorrow bring? Likely more uncertainty as markets continue to be volatile. How did America get to this place and how can we get out of it? Author Karherine Stewart sits down with Mark to explore the themes of her new book, “Money, Lies and God.” Journalist and political reporter Michael Shure stops by to wrap up this week in politics.

According to the Washington Post, Trump plans to sign an executive order that will fire the Postal Service's governing board so the agency will no longer function independently, He wants the USPS under the control of the Commerce Department and Secretary Howard Lutnick. The board isn't going quietly and is reportedly planning to sue. Elon Musk celebrated firing government workers at CPAC last night by parading around on stage with a chain saw.

Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth's judgement is already in question after he extended an invitation to the Pizzagate conspiracy theorist. Hegseth included far-right influencer Jack Posobiec - offering him a media invitaton on his first official trip to Europe this week. Posobiec might not be able to roll with Hegseth as his online posts indicate that he is already in Ukraine with Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent. Clearly, Posobiec is in demand by Trump administration officials despite pushing the Pizzagate lie and whipping up such a furor that an armed man went looking for the non-existent pizza parlor basement where Democrats were alleged to have been doing horrible things and fired a shot in the restaurant. No injuries. We welcome our favorite hockey fan, journalist Michael Shure to the show to discuss that and so much more. We are off to explore Friday Fabulous Florida where Polk County Sheriff Grady Judd has a special Valentines messsge for us. The Culture Blaster, Michael Snyder, brings us all the best entertainment offerings this week, from the theaters to streaming options.
Federal workers are getting bullied into resigning. According to Politico, Trump administration officials are sending multiple messages trying to convince staff to take a deferred resignation deal. Many federal workers aren't sure that deal is legal or will even be honored. For now, threats of layoffs, cutting entire office locations and being replaced with AI are keeping the pressure on federal workers. We will check in with Josh Mankiewicz from Dateline NBC. When Mark & Josh get together, the conversation can go anywhere from politics to murder. Political journalist Michael Shure will join us to look at the wild week in Washington DC.

Two of America's top trading partners, Canada, and Mexico, will get a taste of what it's like to be Donald Trump‘s neighbor this weekend. Saturday, Trump says 25% tariffs will be announced…tariffs that he says may increase over time. Why rile up the neighbors? Trump says he is fighting back against an increase of migrants at the southern border, fentanyl coming into the United States and the trade deficit the U.S. has with both countries. Trump says neither Mexico nor Canada has treated the U.S. fairly on trade and “we don't need the products that they have.” We'll talk about it with journalist and political analyst Michael Shure. A little trip southward is in order for Friday Fabulous Florida. We'll see what those crazy kids have been up to this week. The Culture Blaster, Michael Snyder, joins us for a look at the hottest movies and streaming options this week.
How can we be certain that the people who forced the lockdowns, distancing, mask and vax mandates on us were wrong? Paul Rosenberg says, it's simple, because everyone got covid anyway.

Trmp is pushing pause on the release of science and health information from the government. That includes the CDC's Morbidity and Mortality Weekly Report. That report gave us the first indication that diseases like HIV, Ebola and Covid would be an issue. It helps health care professionals know what to watch for and what to do. As of now, such communicatons are paused pending approval by a Trump appointee. A constitutional amendment to add a third Trump term is before Congress. Tennessee Representative Andy Ogles introduced the resolution which only names Trump, no other future President. Ogles said Trump “has proven himself to be the only figure in modern history capable of reversing our nation's decay and restoring America to greatness, and he must be given the time necessary to accomplish that goal.” Journalist Michael Shure joins to discuss it all. Friday Fabulous Florida brings us closer to understanding our wildest state. The Culture Blaster, Michael Snyder, rides in to talk Oscar nominations and shares some of the hottest movies and streaming options.

Trump's sympathetic Supreme Court decided not to intervene in his hush money trial sentencing hearing. At sentencng, Trump lashed out at the judicial system that was used against him. Chief Justice John Roberts and Justice Amy Coney Barrett sided with the more liberal justices in allowing the sentencing to move forward. The justices decided that Trump could address any problems he has with the verdict through appeals, and that because the judge has indicated Trump will not face jail time, probation or fines, "the burden that sentencing will impose on the President-Elect's responsibilities is relatively insubstantial.” Political analyst and journalist Michael Shure joins. We are covering the Southern California wildfires on The Mark Thompson Show. We will discuss the latest details as well as the arrest of a man for arson in connection with the fire near Calabasas. It wouldn't be Friday without Friday Fabulous Florida! Nor would it be Friday without The Culture Blaster, Michael Snyder. He will bring a recommended mix of movie and streaming options.

When Trump says “Make America Great Again” does he mean great like in size? In recent days, Trump has resurrected the idea of buying Greenland from Denmark. Greenland, by the way, says they're not interested. He's also threatening to take away the Panama Canal from Panama.

Several years ago when Michael Snyder was a Plain Truth senior writer, he interviewed several nuclear war experts and physicists during a Washington DC science conference. That produced the popular Plain Truth cover article “Humanity won't end this way,” referencing concerns about nuclear war which Mr. Herbert Armstrong later made into a World Tomorrow telecast. His work and article were later turned into a booklet on nuclear war where he shared a byline with Mr. Armstrong. It's online at various COG historical sites. Today we talk about the state of the world that could possibly be on the brink of World War III. The war between Russia and Ukraine has escalated. Where is the end. Listen to Mike Snyder's insight about current dangerous conditions. The podcast was made after church services and you may hear the voices of children playing. ____________________________________ Michael A. Snyder, (not to be confused with Michael T. Snyder, a non-related prolific writer on speculative prophecy) has written for Beyond Today (both the magazine and the telecast) and previously served as a senior writer for The PlainTruth magazine. He and his wife Jamie live in Indianapolis, Indiana and attend the Indianapolis United Church of God congregation. They previously lived in Pasadena, California.
In a Wall Street Journal op-ed, Elon Musk and Vivek Ramaswamy discuss details of their plans to eliminate some governmental rules along with many federal workers. As part of the Department of Governmental, Efficiency, the pair will be outside volunteers overseeing a staff of “small government crusaders.” They are looking to make administrative and regulatory cuts and save money. The plan is to “identify rules that exceed the authority Congress granted agencies.” They'll run it past lawyers and then present it to Trump who will be able to take executive action. If regulations are cut, the staff working in those areas will likely be unnecessary. Team DOGE will be whittling agencies down to the minimum number required to perform legal and constitutional duties. Those workers who lose jobs will not be saved by civil service protections, according to Musk and Ramaswamy as cuts would fall under a “reduction in force.” We will discuss it with political analyst and journalist, Michael Shure. We'll also ask him what he thinks about Pam Bondi, Trump‘s new candidate to be the US Attorney General. We'll swing by Florida to see what those crazy kids are up to. Get ready to pick your favorite story of Friday Fabulous Florida. It's a big weekend at the movies. Gladiator 2 and Wicked are on the big screens. We will find out if either are worth your time or money. The Culture Blaster, Michael Snyder, brings his critical eye.

ESPN host Stephen A. Smith had to correct Sean Hannity yesterday on Fox. Hannity was trying to normalize Trump's mental state and Smith wasn't having it. In trying to defend Donald Trump, Hannity said Harris struggles to speak in public and that she hast to give word salads because she can't say how she really feels. Smith called Hannity out: 'I know you're not talking about someone being lucid and cogent, and enunciating their thoughts with clarity, and you're bragging about Donald Trump,' 'We can't be watching the same stuff if that's what you're doing. You're not gonna do that today.' We will speak with journalist Anthony Davis, our favorite Britisher and the host of The Five Minute News on Miedas Touch Network.

You would think that while standing behind a podium in Detroit, Michigan trying to court voters, a presidential candidate would not badmouth a city to its own residents. That's what Trump did yesterday. Speaking at the Detroit Energy Club, Trump rambled on for nearly three hours. He took the opportunity to express his dismay over Vice President Kamala Harris' “60 Minutes” interview, and said that if she's elected, the entire country “will end up being like Detroit.” Here's the quote: “The whole country's going to be like — you want to know the truth? It'll be like Detroit. Our whole country will end up being like Detroit if she's your president. You're going to have a mess on your hands.” That did not go over well with Michigan Governor Gretchen Whitmer who responded to Trump on X, writing “keep Detroit out of your mouth. Detroit is the epitome of ‘grit,' defined by winners willing to get their hands dirty to build up their city and create their communities—something Donald Trump could never understand. So keep Detroit out of your mouth. And you better believe Detroiters won't forget this in November.” We will look at that story as well as the latest poll numbers from swing states when we welcome journalist and political analyst Michael Shure to the show. In light of the suffering in Florida following hurricanes Helene and Milton, we've decided to suspend Friday Fabulous Florida this week out of respect for people going through a really hard time.
