Join Jim and Greg for the Wednesday 3 Martini Lunch as they dissect President Trump making the Democrats look heartless and crazy in their refusal to applaud almost anything, Trump's reluctance to pursue an aggressive legislative agenda this year, Virginia Gov. Abigail Spanberger's forgettable rebuttal to Trump's speech, and the truly insane event Dems put on during the speech.First, they explain what they liked about the speech, including Trump exposing that Democrats oppose the protection of citizens over illegal aliens and or stopping schools or local governments from transitioning minors without the knowledge or consent of parents. Democrats also refused to clap for families traumatized by violent crime and even seemed pretty unenthused about the Olympic champion hockey team. Talk about an own goal!Next, they scratch their heads at news that President Trump doesn't want to pursue another reconciliation bill in Congress this year to pass more GOP fiscal priorities while Republicans still hold majorities on both sides of Capitol Hill. Jim and Greg urge him to reconsider and point to the value such an agenda would have on the midterms.Finally, they pan the Democrats' rebuttal delivered by Gov. Spanberger, noting what they see as hypocrisy on some issues and incoherence on others. They also highlight the thoroughly bizarre event lefties ran in opposition to the State of the Union.Please visit our great sponsors:Take your personal data back with Incogni—use code 3ML for 60% off an annual plan at https://Incogni.com/3MLLive better, longer with BUBS Naturals.

Sarah in Manhattan called Mark and suggested that an ad featuring Obama rewarding Border Czar Tom Homan with an award should be made to help Republicans win the Midterms. Dave in Log Swamp, NJ, called to check in with Mark and talk about his wildlife, and mentioned some of the animals he has eaten before.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Mark recaps last night's State of the Union address. The Democrats refused to stand for most of the night, including for a military hero who rescued many people in the air. Iran was not mentioned during the speech, possibly due to the potential for war. Democrats fell for many of the President's traps to use the Democrats' reactions for campaign ads for his party. Bill Gates was allegedly lying about not being involved in a significant way in the Epstein files. Mark takes your calls! Mark interviews Boston radio host Howie Carr. Howie appreciated that President Trump discussed the food stamp fraud in Massachusetts, which many media outlets have ignored. Democrats did not stand for many of the accomplishments of those in the chamber. Governor Abigail Spanberger delivered the Democratic response after the SOTU, outlining the party's plans and next moves.

Do you want to know investment success secrets? Look no further than today's discussion! The long-dominant "buy the Magnificent 7 and forget it" tech trade is fading, with sector rotation favoring energy, materials, and staples while technology and discretionary lag. Drawing on presidential cycle data, it seems markets often experience weakness and corrections in midterm years before potential strength later, though today's backdrop of sticky inflation, high debt, and constrained Federal Reserve policy could challenge historical norms. Liquidity over politics is the true market driver and power preservation incentives may shape fiscal and economic decisions and highlights opportunities in defensive sectors and fixed income if rates fall. As always, disciplined investing is the most important: avoid ego, abandon rigid outcome-based predictions, adopt scenario-based thinking, respect price action, and define in advance when you are wrong. We discuss... The long-standing strategy of simply buying mega-cap tech stocks is breaking down as sector leadership rotates. Energy, materials, and staples are outperforming while technology and discretionary stocks lag, signaling possible market-top behavior. Historical sector rotation patterns suggest markets may be transitioning from expansion toward a late-cycle phase. Midterm presidential years historically bring volatility and frequent 10–20% corrections before potential recovery. Liquidity is framed as the primary force driving market cycles. Today's environment of sticky inflation, high debt, and constrained Federal Reserve policy may weaken the reliability of historical patterns. Defensive sectors and fixed income could benefit if growth slows and interest rates decline. Political incentives around power preservation may influence fiscal decisions and economic optics heading into elections. Investors are warned not to blindly "buy the dip," especially in volatile assets like crypto. The hosts stress that price action ultimately determines whether an investment thesis is right or wrong. Ego and overconfidence are identified as major threats to long-term investing success. Outcome-based thinking is discouraged in favor of scenario-based planning across multiple probable outcomes. Behavioral research shows experts often double down when wrong, reinforcing the importance of flexibility. Successful investing requires humility, adaptability, risk management, and clearly defined exit strategies.   Today's Panelists: Kirk Chisholm | Innovative Wealth Douglas Heagren | Mergent College Advisors Follow on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/moneytreepodcast Follow LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/showcase/money-tree-investing-podcast Follow on Twitter/X: https://x.com/MTIPodcast For more information, visit the show notes at https://moneytreepodcast.cominvesting-success-secrets-793  

  Guest: Matt Shaheen, Texas State Representative, District 66   If you'd like to watch this podcast, check out the PCA YouTube page.   This was such a powerful conversation with Texas State Representative Matt Shaheen sharing some helpful insights into the political system and how primary and general elections work. Early voting in Texas runs through Friday, February 27th and the primary election date is Tuesday, March 3, 2026. If you are in another state, make sure you check for your primary election date and get out and vote!   In Texas there are several hotly contested races on the federal, state, and levels from one US Senator position to every House member. On the state level, the Texas Governor, Lt. Gov., Attorney General, Land Commissioner, Ag Commissioner, and Railroad Commissioner are also in contested primary battles on both sides of the political spectrum!

Last night's State of the Union address was one of President Trump's best speeches ever. It was so good that the democrats in attendance couldn't help to make fools of themselves thus hurting their chances in the midterms. However, if you thought the Dems who were present for the speech acted a fool, well, the ones that chose not to attend and hold a counter program rally really went beyond strange. We cover all the details in today's special State of the Union podcast, including live reactions from Ilhan Omar as she went to friendly grounds to speak for the first time after last nights outbursts.

Daily Snippet vom 25.02.2026 Wer sich die fast 2 Stunden angetan hat, sucht nach dem Signal für sein Portfolio. Die bittere Wahrheit: Es gibt keine neue, große Langzeitstrategie der US-Regierung. Trump agiert "day to day" mit klarem Blick auf die Midterms im November. Als Investor bedeutet das: Wir müssen uns ebenfalls taktisch positionieren. Welche 3 Erkenntnisse ich für das Family Office aus der Rede gezogen habe:

Two men are in custody and are being interviewed by police following raids in relation to the alleged kidnapping and murder of 85-year-old Sydney grandfather, Chris Baghsarian.The elderly man was abducted from his North Ryde home earlier this month in an apparent case of mistaken identity.Authorities believe the intended target lived nearby and had links to a notorious crime family.The nation's leaders from both sides of politics are talking about the need for more civil debate to ease tensions, after the Prime Minister was forced to evacuate his Canberra home overnight due to a security threat.Authorities still haven't revealed what was behind the threat but they've confirmed nothing suspicious was found when they searched the PM's residence known as The Lodge.One Labor frontbencher says it's an extraordinary incident and it's difficult to recall a similar situation.US president Donald Trump's preparing to give the first State of the Union address of his second presidential term, as his poll numbers sit at record lows.Millions of voters tune into the speech every year and the president is expected to pitch his policies and successes to them ahead of the midterm elections later this year.He'll likely to focus on domestic issues, including his hard-line immigration policy.Democrats say Donald Trump's second term in office has been marred by chaos and corruption.

A lot of people are happy with the job Trump is doing, but many are angry as well. This SOTU speech will be incredibly important for two reasons. 1: It will afford Trump an opportunity to highlight by the numbers all of his achievements. 2: We will get to see a response from the person the Democrats are grooming to be their presidential candidate in 2028, Abigail Spanberger…plus we may have a special guest of our own to respond to her!

In 2024, Republicans won on an anti-immigrant platform. Vice President Kamala Harris had a “tough on the border” message. Now, Democratic candidates for Congress and Senate are rallying around an anti-extreme immigration enforcement message, while some pundits warn that immigration could cost Republicans in the midterm. In the Loop discusses what changed and how strategists make calculations of what will move voters. Our panel today: Jason DeSanto, senior lecturer in the Northwestern University Pritzker School of Law and Democratic debate strategist, and Diego Morales, organizer, PUÑO (Pilsen Rapid Response Network). For a full archive of In the Loop interviews, head over to wbez.org/intheloop.

The Epstein files are naming names — CEOs, politicians, a current and former president. This is the stratum of people making decisions about nuclear weapons in an uncontrolled arms race with no arms limitation treaties, no diplomatic channels, and AI now integrated into nuclear command systems.Paul Jay talks with Matt Korda of the Federation of American Scientists about where the U.S. nuclear modernization program actually stands — the Sentinel ICBM, hundreds of billions in cost overruns, the Golden Dome fantasy, and a launch-on-warning doctrine that even its defenders can't rationally explain.The logic behind ICBMs collapses under scrutiny. The Golden Dome can't work. The real objective, as with every arms race boondoggle from SAGE to SDI, is the money. As Paul puts it, “It's not about the dome, it's about the gold.”Meanwhile, Russia and China aren't talking to Washington. The arms control architecture is gone. And the media is barely covering any of it.We need an anti-nuclear movement like the one that existed in the early 1980s. Midterms and a presidential election are coming. Make this an issue.Matt Korda is a senior researcher at the Federation of American Scientists.

The guest host for today's show is Brad Bannon. Brad runs Bannon Communications Research, a polling, message development and media firm which helps labor unions, progressive issue groups and Democratic candidates win public affairs and political campaigns. His show, 'Deadline D.C. with Brad Bannon,' airs every Monday from 3-4pm ET. Brad is first joined by White House Correspondent for the Washington Examiner, Mabinty Quarshie, who previews tomorrow's 'State Of The Union' address. Mabinty says she expects Trump to say that he doesn't need authority from the Supreme Court or from Congress in order to levy tariffs, and that he'll cherry pick any positive economic stats his staff can find.  She and Brad also discuss why voters have soured on Trump's approach to immigration, and how electricity prices have doubled under his watch. On the subject of tariffs, Congress will have to authorize Trump's 15% tariffs across the board after 150 days, which doesn't look like it'll have the votes in the House or Senate. Mabinty also highlights how Trump's go to economic policy was tariffs, (and he was using it as a weapons for any world leader that angered him), but now those are likely to be gone soon. Then, leading progressive strategist and Outreach Director of the Battleground Alliance, Heather Booth, discusses November's upcoming midterm elections in the House and Senate. Heather highlights the damage that President Trump and congressional Republicans have done by taking away health insurance for millions of Americans, failing to address increases in the cost of living, and killing Americans like Renee Good and Alex Pretti.   Next, despite acknowledging positive polling for Democrats heading into the midterm elections, she says that the results will all depend on Democrats organizing and turning out voters beginning now. Brad and Heather then discuss how the Battleground Alliance brings together Unions, environmental groups and civic groups and are supporting local organizations that are doing the work on the ground to win the midterms for Democratic candidates in over 40 congressional races. Heather also speaks about her organizing work with the late Rev. Jessie Jackson, and how his work lives on. She and Brad recap redistricting thus far for the upcoming election cycle, how Democrats have fought back against the Republican efforts to rig the upcoming midterms, the threat the Supreme Court still presents to the Voting Rights Act, and how Americans can fight back if it's struck down. Finally, Heather highlights how we can turn our anger into action and the 'hurt and hate into hope and heart.' The website for the Battleground Alliance is www.BattlegroundAlliance.org. Brad is on the National Journal's panel of political insiders, is an American political analyst for The Times of India TV, and is a national political analyst for WGN TV and Radio in Chicago and KNX Radio in Los Angeles. Brad also writes a political column every Sunday for 'The Hill.' You can read his columns at www.MuckRack.com/Brad-Bannon. His handle on BlueSky is @bradbannon.bsky.social.

John Hinderaker, founder of Power Line and President of the Center of the American Experiment, joins the show by phone to dive into the current state of politics, the recent Supreme Court ruling invalidating the Trump Administration’s tariff policy, the Democrats' strategy for the midterms and the role of abortion in the conversation, and the tumultuous events in Minnesota so far this year. John shares his insights on the fragility of the voter coalition President Trump won his second term victory with, and the potential for the Democrats to whip up a frenzy of hatred against the Republicans. They also touch on the state of education, including the push for radical ethnic studies in public schools.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

President Trump wants congress to pass the SAVE Act, requiring would-be voters to prove they are citizens. He's called for Republicans to nationalize voting and even mused that the midterms should be canceled. What that all means for the midterms. *** Thank you for listening.

Trump's State of the Union address is tomorrow, and with the midterm elections this November, his administration's priorities will be important for the GOP's congressional strategy. On Today's Show:Jonathan Lemire, co-host of Morning Joe on MSNOW and contributing writer to The Atlantic, talks about the latest national political news.

With midterm elections a mere eight months away, are Democrats ready? Maybe not, according to journalist Mark Leibovich who traveled the country talking to party leaders about how Democrats intend to meet the moment. Despite Trump's low approval ratings and a slim Republican majority in Congress, a Democratic rebound is far from a slam dunk with the Republican National Committee currently holding a $100 million fundraising advantage. What happened to the once-confident multiracial coalition of working class men and women? We talk about the future of the Democratic party. Guests: Mark Leibovich, staff writer, The Atlantic - His latest piece is titled "The Democrats Aren't Built for This" Aimee Allison, founder and president, She the People - A national organization dedicated to building the political power of women of color Learn more about your ad choices.

With early voting underway and turnout reportedly higher than normal, we look at the role North Carolina is likely to play nationally. And we examine some of the twists and turns already injected into this year's elections, such as the 240,000 voters who received a letter stating their registration lacked certain required information.

In this episode of the Real Estate Pros Podcast, host Michelle Kesil interviews Ryan Mueller, founder of Plexa Housing, a tech platform focused on midterm rentals for people displaced due to insurance claims.

Arnie Katz has been running product and engineering under one roof since before most companies even considered combining the roles. As CPTO at GoFundMe, he oversees the teams behind a platform processing over 2.5 donations every second, with more than $40 billion in help facilitated worldwide. Arnie breaks down why the CPTO title keeps gaining traction, how he thinks about the role like a portfolio manager, and where the real trade offs live when one person holds both the product and technology reins.Key TakeawaysThe CPTO role works like a portfolio manager. Arnie manages the company's largest investment center by balancing short term business wins against long term platform bets, knowing when to take on technical debt and when to pay it down.Velocity, coordination, and alignment are the three biggest wins. When product and engineering report to one leader, decisions happen faster, roadmap conflicts get resolved without executive tug of war, and technical investments stay tied to business outcomes.The disadvantages are real. Without separate CPO and CTO voices at the executive table, certain perspectives can get muted. His fix: build a leadership bench strong enough to create the right tension underneath him.AI is changing what small teams can deliver. GoFundMe's eight person team behind Giving Funds is shipping at a pace that would have been impossible five years ago.Timestamped Highlights[00:38] The scale most people don't realize about GoFundMe, including 2.5 donations per second and GoFundMe Pro for nonprofits.[02:02] How Arnie first landed the CPTO title at StubHub seven years ago, and why it clicked.[09:11] The real downside of collapsing two C suite roles into one, and how Arnie designs around it.[13:57] His portfolio approach to technical debt, sequencing re platforming in areas like identity and payments while other teams ship business value.[18:38] AI reshaping engineering velocity, the future of the SDLC, and product teams prototyping without writing code.[23:06] Where the CPTO model is headed as the industry evolves.The Line That Stuck"I often think of myself as a portfolio manager. My job is to invest money where the company gets the best returns, where the mission gets the best return, where the shareholder gets the best returns."Pro TipsSequence your bets instead of spreading them thin. GoFundMe gave their identity and payments teams nine months of runway to re platform with no feature expectations while other squads picked up the pace on near term results.Build leadership that creates productive friction. Without CPO vs. CTO tension at the exec level, let your VPs and SVPs push back against each other. That tension is where the best decisions come from.Think in time horizons, not just priorities. Short term moves for 0.1% to 0.5% metric lifts. Midterm bets for 1% to 5% gains. Long term swings that could transform the business. Allocate across all three.If this conversation changed how you think about product and engineering working together, share it with someone on your team. Subscribe to The Tech Trek so you never miss an episode, and connect with Arnie on LinkedIn to keep the conversation going.GoFundMe is offering listeners of The Tech Trek a chance to open their own Giving Fund.

With the 2026 midterm elections approaching, the biggest question facing Republicans is clear: can they win without Donald Trump on the ballot? In this in-depth conversation, Lisa is joined veteran strategist John McLaughlin breaks down the critical turnout gap shaping recent elections, why Democrats may currently hold a slight advantage, and what Republicans must do now to rebuild the coalition that powered victories in 2016 and 2024. From the importance of Trump-era issue alignment—including immigration, tax cuts, and working-class economic policy—to the danger of voter drop-off in 2025 races, this episode dives into the data, the strategy, and the stakes. We also explore: Why Trump voters aren’t turning out at the same levels—and how to fix it The 80% issues Republicans may be failing to capitalize on, like voter ID and border security How Democratic policies on taxes, spending, and immigration could reshape the midterms The growing disconnect between economic data and voter perception Why messaging—and where voters get their information—may decide the election Early insights into the 2028 Democratic primary battle, including Kamala Harris, Gavin Newsom, and the rising progressive wing Plus: What history—from the 2002 and 2010 elections—can teach us about defying midterm trends, and whether Republicans are making the same mistakes all over again.

On episode 119 of Native Land Pod, hosts Angela Rye, Andrew Gillum, and Bakari Sellers team up with guest-host Dr. Reverend Jamal Bryant. Pastor Bryant held a groundbreaking joint sermon recently with his wife, Karri Bryant, for Valentines day. They cracked jokes and shared their wisdom for how to make a relationship last, which we’ll pass on to you. Then Pastor Bryant holds space for us as we remember another reverend, Jesse Jackson, who passed away Tuesday, February 17th. FOR YOUR SITUATIONAL AWARENESS: Early voting sites are being removed from North Carolina Universities, disenfranchising Black students. The SAVE Act heads to the Senate, the “Voter ID Law” threatens voting rights. DHS Secretary Kristi Noem says DHS Will Help “Secure” Elections. The Olympic Village has run out of the 10,000 condoms it supples to athletes. Five Black surgeons lead the trauma unit at the prestigious Johns Hopkins hospital for the first time. We dedicate the majority of our show today to Reverend Jesse Jackson. Reverend Jackson had a knack for showing up wherever Black folks were organizing; he showed up for our hosts multiple times to offer his support and mentorship. We’ll hear their personal stories about the reverend and more from his fabled life: Reverend Jackson grew up in poverty before rising through the church to carry on the work of MLK Jr., his mentor. He ran for president in the 80’s (which set the stage for Obama), championed progressive causes that were far ahead of his time, and created broad political alliances that last to this day. His impact cannot be overstated. If you’d like to submit a question, check out our tutorial video: http://www.instagram.com/reel/C5j_oBXLIg0/ and send to @nativelandpod.

Join Jim and Greg for the Thursday edition of the 3 Martini Lunch as they break down French President Emmanuel Macron's controversial comments on limiting free speech, Tucker Carlson's claim that he was “detained” in Israel, and new polling that gives Republicans reason for optimism in this year's gubernatorial elections.First, they push back on Pres. Macron after he suggested tighter limits on speech he considers hateful or misinformation and anonymous speech online. Jim and Greg explain why restricting free expression is a dangerous path and what the freedom-loving response is to ugly speech. They also comment briefly on the arrest of former Prince Andrew in the UK.Next, they examine Tucker Carlson's claim that he and his team were “detained” at Ben Gurion Airport in Israel while traveling to interview Ambassador Mike Huckabee.
