Week two of an unusual Minnesota legislative session is underway with the struggle over power still gripping the Capitol. Republicans in the House continue to hold floor sessions while Democrats continue to boycott as court decisions late last week pushed a House special election into March. Last legislative session, a unique bipartisan coalition formed to combat housing affordability. Chaired by DFLers Rep. Mike Howard and Sen. Lindsey Port, the committee had strong bipartisan support, including from House Republican Whip Rep. Jim Nash, who has been working on housing legislation for more than 10 years.Two of the bills that received very strong bipartisan support had to do with city zoning reform, but lobbying by city governments, especially in the suburbs, tanked the bills. With so much left unfinished last session and with this session's power balance still in limbo, how will that committee work together in the House? Rep. Nash serves on the Housing and Finance Committee. He was one of the co-authors of the zoning bill in the House last session. Rep. Howard is another co-author of the zoning bill and the top-ranking Democrat on the Housing Finance and Policy Committee. They both joined MPR News guest host Emily Bright to explain what's to come.

August 27, 2023 God Equips His Believers - Hebrews 12:20-21 - Mike Howard
Frank Murphy is joined by his friend Kathryn Frady of Marble City Opera. Frank is mildly surprised that Kathryn isn't in Baton Rouge at the moment. Frank wonders if Louisiana has a state income tax (it does). Frank considers yard work and gardening to be his exercise program. He bought a tray of wilting marigolds from the clearance shelf but they are now thriving in his garden. Frank wants to grow more perennials like day lilies instead of annuals like the marigolds. This time last year, Frank was spending hours per day harvesting figs. No figs have ripened yet this year because the trees are behind schedule due to the winter freeze and the extreme pruning that was necessary. Dr. Frank Jr. PhD arrived for a visit shortly after a strong thunderstorm that knocked down several fig branches. They cut away the damaged branches but since then Frank has been bothered by a rash on his legs that could be from the irritating fig sap. Frank planted parts of the damaged branches on his property and on his neighbor's property. Frank's wife Jere is concerned that there is no more room in the yard for more fig trees. Another neighbor has a new pool and asked Frank to clean it for a week. The neighbor also invited Frank to pick some apples from his tree. Frank put his grandsons on his shoulders to reach the higher fruit. When Frank's daughter arrived, she made applesauce and apple butter from the fruit the boys picked.

You can also get several of Sam Venable's books, signed by the author and the new book by former UT counsel Ron Leadbetter. Frank and Jere took Artie and Timmy to Dollywood. Frank and both boys rode the Dragonflier roller coaster. Frank and Artie then rode Big Bear Mountain. Frank wished the wait time had been longer because he felt unwell after Big Bear Mountain. He skipped lunch but later Jere bought him a soft pretzel that was the best thing he ate all day. He ate the pretzel while enjoying the Dreamland Drive-In show, which Frank's friend Mike Howard is stage managing. Kathryn took her husband James to Andy's Frozen Custard in Baton Rouge. It was his first visit and he asked for a cone with cookie-dough ice cream, which is not on the menu. Kathryn improvised by ordering a cup of vanilla custard with cookie-dough mixed in and then requested an empty cone and a spoon. Frank went to two wedding receptions that had cookie bars, meaning a buffet assortment of cookies, many of which reminded Frank of Christmas baking. At one reception, the cookies were uncovered after dinner. At the other reception, the cookie bar was set up near the bar before the dining room was opened. At the fancy reception, Frank was excited to meet a radio sports announcer who was assigned to the same table. Frank and Jere were the only people at the table because the sports announcer didn't show up. The guests at another table invited Frank and Jere to squeeze into their table rather than sit alone.

ITOP Episode 400- Mike Howard - 400th Episode 8 - 6-23 by SHALE Magazine
I recently sent an email to my list of subscribers (which you should be on if you're not already, visit https://jamesdnewcomb.com to do so) talking about the "6 psychological triggers" that enable one to ethically persuade, dare I say manipulate any type of transaction in your favor.I had heard these 6 triggers from a package of sales type materials I purchased years ago, and it turns out the package I bought was echoing a structured set of "Laws" made famous by the great Robert Cialdini, author of Influence: The Psychology of Persuasion.That's where our guest on today's episode comes in. Mike Howard has been reading my emails for awhile, and he replied to the email wanting to discuss this topic. I said I'd love to, but let's get on a zoom call so I can record it and share with my audience!He happily agreed, and what you'll hear in this episode is what came of it.Oh, by the way, the 6 psychological triggers of persuasion are:Expert authorityLikabilityCommitment and consistencyReciprocationSocial proofScarcityAnd it turns out there's a seventh Law that Cialdini has introduced recently, Unity.Enjoy this episode, and remember you're always selling something, even if it's in the most non-salesy environment possible. What you'll hear in this episode:-Influence yourself first and foremost before influencing others...02:30-Mike's background and experience in the world of persuasion and sales...08:30-The power of expert authority...11:00-Good and bad when it comes to reciprocation...21:30-Authority leads to "social proof"...27:00-In praise of the "one trick pony": how to use scarcity to your advantage...32:00-We all crave community...37:00-Plus whatever your discerning ears deem worthy of your time and interest...Resources mentioned:Influence: The Psychology of Persuasion by Robert CialdiniOnline Influence by Bas WoutersCialdini InstituteAbout the Guest:Connect with Mike Howard on LinkedInFor the past forty-four years Mike Howard has immersed himself in the study of change. In the late 1970s starting in the blue-collar wire extrusion mills of Worcester MA, Mike learned the intricacies of the manufacturing process. He experienced what were the most effective ways to manufacture a quality product in a timely fashion and accomplish it with consistency.In 1980 Mike transitioned to the high-tech world of Semi-conductors and Personal Computers. Beginning at an entry level manufacturing position he enjoyed a ten-year journey in route to becoming Business Manufacturing Manager of 3 front-end Semi-Conductor Fabrication businesses within the company. This experience allowed Mike to fully understand the dynamics of different work groups existing inside a company and how to blend them into one cohesive organization that accomplished results far exceeding company goals and expectations. In 1990 Mike left the manufacturing world to tackle a completely different opportunity. Forging out on his own he worked hand and hand for a decade with the World's Foremost Authority in the field of Human Development, Anthony Robbins, as his exclusive New England franchise. Mike provided training in the areas of Sales and Influence,Teambuilding, Leadership, and...

They highlight how destructive the transgender medical agenda is for children and how illogical transgender activists are. Two of the videos claim that children can know that they are transgender from birth or even while still in utero. The hospital boasts that it regularly sees transgender children as young as 2 or 3 years old, when they meet with a psychologist who pushes them down the road of social gender transitioning. Concerned parents are told that beginning an irreversible process based on the word of a 2-year-old is just being “supportive.” https://twitter.com/i/status/1558823459651817477 - Play Video How do children know they are the wrong gender from birth or in the womb? That is not clear. In fact, it's hard even to imagine what that means. But we do apparently have metrics for when they are around 2 or 3. According to the hospital, a child refusing to get a haircut or playing with “opposite gender” toys can only mean that the child is transgender and must begin the gender transition process. https://twitter.com/i/status/1558669742126223361 - Play Video Aside from the wild leap in logic from a child rejecting a haircut to social gender transitioning, this makes no sense by the very logic that transgender activists have promoted. If gender is an entirely social construct, then the idea of gendered toys is also a social construct. So, if the idea that only girls play with dolls (for example) is an outdated social construct, how does a boy playing with a doll prove that he is actually a girl and should begin the transition process?

The Washington Post reports that Leclair was convicted on five counts of child sexual assault and, in the courtroom, quaffed from a water bottle while "guilty" after "guilty" count was read in succession. Leclair's lawyer, Mike Howard, said, "I looked over and noticed him drinking. His hand was shaking. At the time, I thought it was shaking because of the verdict. Then he kept drinking and drinking." Howard said Leclair faced a very stern sentence of up to 100 years. The child rapist had been free on bond before the verdict but was escorted to a holding cell after he was deemed guilty. According to CNN, Denton County Assistant District Attorney Jamie Beck, said the drink looked "cloudy," and "Our investigator noticed him chug the water. He told the bailiff he might want to go check on him. The bailiff did. He was unconscious in the holding cell." Defense Attorney Howard said Leclair started vomiting "shortly after entering the holdover cell," and that emergency services were called. The Denton Record-Chronicle reported that Leclair was charged with raping a 14-year-old girl in 2016. The child had posted a personal ad on Criaglist and solicited the meeting but said Leclair raped her when they met and drove to a nearby hotel. Two years later the girl's mother called police on Leclair and he was arrested. His trial began on August 8 and he was out on a $30,000 bond. DA Beck said, "He was very much either dying or dead," when the bailiff found him and now the Texas Rangers are investigating this "in-custody death."

Monthly active users increased by 76% year-on-year to an average of 44 million monthly active users while content uploaded increased by 283% year-on-year to 8,948 video hours per day. User engagement increased by 62% year-on-year with Rumble users watching an average of 8.1 billion minutes per month. This is Rumble’s second record-setting quarter of the year with the video sharing platform setting record all-time highs in all key performance measures in Q1 2022. “While most platforms are experiencing declines or slowed growth, we are seeing the opposite,” Rumble CEO Chris Pavlovski tweeted. Pavlovski added that in his opinion, the reason other platforms’ growth is slowing is because “audiences are going to places like Rumble.” Many users have embraced Rumble because it has committed to allowing its users to speak freely while Big Tech platforms have doubled down on censorship. In Q2 2022, Rumble doubled down on this commitment by announcing “open-source” free speech rules that users can give feedback on and vowing to not operate in countries that move towards censorship. In addition to this, Rumble provided censorship protection for author and filmmaker Dinesh D’Souza’s latest documentary, “2000 Mules.” The documentary became a “huge hit” for Rumble and was reportedly the biggest political documentary in a decade. Rumble also added several new features during Q2 2022 including picture-in-picture on its web player, full-screen vertical discovery on iOS, and dark mode for iOS. By contrast, the world’s biggest video sharing platform, YouTube, continued to engage in or commit to mass censorship throughout Q2 2022. Some of the many examples of this include YouTube deleting over 70,000 Ukraine war videos, removing a New York Post interview with someone who stormed the Capitol on January 6, 2021, discussing the censorship of “misinformation” with Poland’s President, and reiterating its commitment to constant censorship of “misinformation” at the World Economic Forum Annual Meeting for 2022. Now it’s time for my favorite topic: Sports! https://www.breitbart.com/europe/2022/08/13/djokovic-forced-out-tennis-tournament-biden-ban-unvaxed-travellers/ Djokovic Forced Out of Tennis Tournament by Biden Ban on Unvaxed Travellers Novak Djokovic pulled out of next week’s hard-court tournament in Cincinnati on Friday because he has not gotten any COVID-19 vaccine shots and so is not allowed to travel to the United States. That is also why Djokovic is not expected to be able to enter the U.S. Open, the year’s last Grand Slam tournament, which begins in New York on Aug. 29. Djokovic is a 35-year-old from Serbia who owns 21 major championships, one behind Rafael Nadal for the men’s record. Djokovic has said he won’t get vaccinated against the illness caused by the coronavirus, even if that prevents him from playing in certain tournaments. He missed the Australian Open in January after being deported from that country and needed to sit out two events in the United States earlier this year, along with a tournament in Montreal this week. Unvaccinated foreign citizens can’t go to Canada or the U.S. currently; the Cincinnati tournament’s news release announcing Djokovic’s withdrawal cited “travel restrictions.” Djokovic has said he was still holding out hope of being able to enter the U.S. Open, but that would require a change of government policy, which the U.S. Tennis Association says it will adhere to. Djokovic is a three-time champion at the U.S. Open and was the runner-up last year to Daniil Medvedev. Serena Williams is entered in the field for what is expected to be one of her last appearances on tour. This has been your CrossPolitic Daily News Brief.

They highlight how destructive the transgender medical agenda is for children and how illogical transgender activists are. Two of the videos claim that children can know that they are transgender from birth or even while still in utero. The hospital boasts that it regularly sees transgender children as young as 2 or 3 years old, when they meet with a psychologist who pushes them down the road of social gender transitioning. Concerned parents are told that beginning an irreversible process based on the word of a 2-year-old is just being “supportive.” https://twitter.com/i/status/1558823459651817477 - Play Video How do children know they are the wrong gender from birth or in the womb? That is not clear. In fact, it's hard even to imagine what that means. But we do apparently have metrics for when they are around 2 or 3. According to the hospital, a child refusing to get a haircut or playing with “opposite gender” toys can only mean that the child is transgender and must begin the gender transition process. https://twitter.com/i/status/1558669742126223361 - Play Video Aside from the wild leap in logic from a child rejecting a haircut to social gender transitioning, this makes no sense by the very logic that transgender activists have promoted. If gender is an entirely social construct, then the idea of gendered toys is also a social construct. So, if the idea that only girls play with dolls (for example) is an outdated social construct, how does a boy playing with a doll prove that he is actually a girl and should begin the transition process? This is not some exercise in philosophy or thought experiment. This is the contradictory nature of the logic that therapists and doctors are using to push children down the path toward irreversible and damaging treatments — puberty blockers, hormone treatments, and, eventually, surgery. Boston Children’s Hospital’s Center for Gender Surgery is “the first center of its kind in the U.S. in a major pediatric hospital setting,” as it boasts on its website. It is operating on the logic that children can choose their gender because they know they are the wrong gender before they are even born. Medical and mental health professionals who know better are pushing children down this path, convincing concerned parents that this is what acceptance and support look like. The malpractice lawsuits by the children whose lives they are currently ruining cannot be filed soon enough. https://thepostmillennial.com/study-blames-climate-change-for-children-eating-too-much-and-not-exercising-enough?utm_campaign=64487 Study blames climate change for children eating too much and not exercising enough The talk show CBS Mornings cited a study on Saturday that correlated the growing trend of American obesity to climate change, as increased heat, the study says, is making children stay indoors, consume more calories, and embrace a sedentary lifestyle. https://twitter.com/i/status/1558555239170674688 - Play Video In the study from Temperature, Shawnda A. Morrison argued that rising temperatures have caused children to stay indoors, grow inactive, and eat more. Her work focused on "heat stress assessment" and makes the point that it's more dangerous and less fun to be active if it's extremely hot outside. However, the author conflates metrics from the Covid-19 shutdowns that led to increased obesity in some regions as evidence for her assertions. "Climate change will not only exert direct effects like higher ambient temperatures in many regions but it will also be responsible for indirect effects that can independently affect child physical activity habits, for example as observed during the Covid-19 global pandemic."

By contrast, the world’s biggest video sharing platform, YouTube, continued to engage in or commit to mass censorship throughout Q2 2022. Some of the many examples of this include YouTube deleting over 70,000 Ukraine war videos, removing a New York Post interview with someone who stormed the Capitol on January 6, 2021, discussing the censorship of “misinformation” with Poland’s President, and reiterating its commitment to constant censorship of “misinformation” at the World Economic Forum Annual Meeting for 2022. Now it’s time for my favorite topic: Sports! https://www.breitbart.com/europe/2022/08/13/djokovic-forced-out-tennis-tournament-biden-ban-unvaxed-travellers/ Djokovic Forced Out of Tennis Tournament by Biden Ban on Unvaxed Travellers Novak Djokovic pulled out of next week’s hard-court tournament in Cincinnati on Friday because he has not gotten any COVID-19 vaccine shots and so is not allowed to travel to the United States. That is also why Djokovic is not expected to be able to enter the U.S. Open, the year’s last Grand Slam tournament, which begins in New York on Aug. 29. Djokovic is a 35-year-old from Serbia who owns 21 major championships, one behind Rafael Nadal for the men’s record. Djokovic has said he won’t get vaccinated against the illness caused by the coronavirus, even if that prevents him from playing in certain tournaments. He missed the Australian Open in January after being deported from that country and needed to sit out two events in the United States earlier this year, along with a tournament in Montreal this week. Unvaccinated foreign citizens can’t go to Canada or the U.S. currently; the Cincinnati tournament’s news release announcing Djokovic’s withdrawal cited “travel restrictions.” Djokovic has said he was still holding out hope of being able to enter the U.S. Open, but that would require a change of government policy, which the U.S. Tennis Association says it will adhere to. Djokovic is a three-time champion at the U.S. Open and was the runner-up last year to Daniil Medvedev. Serena Williams is entered in the field for what is expected to be one of her last appearances on tour. This has been your CrossPolitic Daily News Brief.
