Debut author Lauren Morrow joins us to discuss Little Movements, a sharp, funny, and deeply perceptive literary novel set in the world of professional dance.Lauren Morrow joins Book Gang to discuss her satirical novel, Little Movements, which follows Layla, a Black choreographer navigating a fragile marriage, a long-delayed hope of motherhood, and a career-defining opportunity at a prestigious arts institution.When Layla relocates alone to create a new piece from the ground up, she finds herself confronting not just the physical demands of dance but the subtler pressures of tokenization, institutional expectations, and who gets to define what her work "means."Drawing from Morrow's background in dance and arts publicity, Little Movements offers an insider's view of how cultural organizations frame progress, how money shapes artistic freedom, and how women—especially Black women—are often asked to carry symbolic weight they never volunteered for.In this fascinating conversation, we explore:
Who shapes climate action when old systems begin to strain? And where does power really sit - with governments, financial institutions, communities, or individuals?Christiana Figueres, Tom Rivett-Carnac and Paul Dickinson explore climate leadership in a more fragmented geopolitical moment. Picking up the threads from last week's episode, they ask what happens when multilateralism is threatened - and whether smaller coalitions, subnational actors and civic movements are already stepping in to fill the gap.Because with great challenges, come new opportunities. What might we gain from faster, more focused alliances? Might Indigenous wisdom provide lessons for building fairer, greener economic models? And how can we use the resources we have to support Brazil's vision for a global mutirão?Learn More:
Episode 225: Student Movements and Transnational Connections in Tunisia's 1968 In this podcast, Burleigh Hendrickson discusses his book, Decolonizing 1968: Transnational Student Activism in Tunis, Paris, and Dakar (Ithaca, NY: Cornell University Press, 2022). The book was awarded the French Colonial Historical Society's 2023 Alf Andrew Heggoy Prize for best book published in the preceding year dealing with the French colonial experience from 1815 to the present. Decolonizing 1968 focuses on the postcolonial relationships between France and its former colonies during the global protests of 1968. Combining multi-sited archival research with the oral histories of former activists, his research makes visible the enduring links between France and its ex-colonies at the end of formal empire. Burleigh Hendrickson an Assistant Professor in the department of French & Francophone Studies at Penn State University. A scholar of French Empire and decolonization, his research and teaching apply transnational and comparative approaches to the history of the Francophone world, with emphasis on the Maghreb and West Africa. He is also interested in cultures of protest, knowledge production, and historical claims for human dignity. He is the past recipient of Mellon research and writing fellowships from the Council for European Studies and the Social Science Research Council (IDRF), as well as a Fulbright-Hays Fellowship and the Society for French Historical Studies. More recently, he received a Fulbright U.S. Scholar Award to France to carry out research on his second book project, “Losing Empire: Dignity and Indignation from the Enlightenment to the Arab Spring.” This episode was recorded on the 9th of November, 2023, with Luke Scalone, at the Centre d'Études Maghrébines à Tunis (CEhttps://www.cematmaghrib.org/MAT). We thank our friend Mohamed Boukhoudmi for his interpretation of the extract of "Nouba Dziriya" by Dr. Noureddine Saoudi for the introduction and conclusion of this podcast. Production and editing: Lena Krause, AIMS Development and Digital Resources Liaison.

Samantha was with her partner for over 6 years. He constantly monitored her location, expected her home by a certain time, hid her keys so she couldn’t get into the house or drive her car, disputed her credit card charges… and that’s just the beginning. His constant manipulation and control made Sam doubt herself. Sam made many attempts toget help from the police, but the courts kept granting him bail, as well as her ex-partner physically stopping her from attending court hearings. In November 2024, she decided she needed this horrible cycle to end for the sake of herself and their child. She luckily had a detective that fought hard for her, and the ex-partner finally got jail time in 2025. He was the first imprisonment in NSW under coercive control laws. He was imprisoned for 6 months before he got released on house arrest, which he very quickly breached. Karma came and got him when he was caught at the pub by the same detective that put him in prison initially. He is currently back in prison.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
The neat donor funnel sounds good in slides, but it doesn't match how people actually decide to give. We dig into the real path supporters take today—bouncing from reels to Google to LinkedIn to your site—and why the strongest retention work happens long before the first dollar shows up. Instead of chasing one perfect subject line or a last-minute match, we focus on what actually converts: consistency, clarity, and leadership that lowers the emotional risk of giving.You'll hear how to spot and support the messy, multi-touch donor journey without getting lost in attribution rabbit holes. We unpack the limits of tracking tools and UTMs, then pivot to what you can control every day: narrative consistency across your website, social bios, and emails; visible leaders who show context and follow-through; and storytelling that explains the why, not just the need. The goal is simple but powerful—help donors predict you. Predictability builds safety, and safety powers renewal.LettrLabs is the proud presenter of Missions to Movements.

Protest movements have been part of American history since before the United States was founded. In this episode, we hear from historians Ashley Howard, Amy Rutenberg and Daniel K. Williams about three different and powerful protest movements in U.S. history — the civil rights movement, anti-war movement during the Vietnam War and the anti-abortion movement. We'll also talk about the strengths, weaknesses, successes and failures of these movements.

When it comes to feeling better, many of us instinctively start with our minds. We think about our thoughts, our beliefs, our stress levels. But what if a huge part of our emotional and psychological experience is actually being held in our bodies – quite literally – in a remarkable tissue called fascia? This week, I'm joined by Jason van Blerk, one of the co-founders of Human Garage - a global self-care movement that aims to inspire 1 billion people to heal themselves, through simple, accessible movement practices, that they call Fascial Manoeuvres. In our conversation, we explore what fascia actually is, why modern science is only just beginning to catch up with what many practitioners have observed for decades, and how emotions and past experiences may be stored in our physical structure. Jason also shares how different areas of the body seem to relate to different emotional patterns, why posture and mood are so tightly linked, and how changing one can often influence the other. We also talk about stress, and why so many of us feel tense, disconnected, and stuck in our own lives and Jason explains how simple rotational movements, combined with specific breathing patterns, can help “unwind” the body, reduce stress, and leave you feeling lighter, calmer, and grounded. The thing I love the most about Human Garage's philosophy is that they want to empower people to heal themselves. This is not about needing lifelong treatment, or becoming dependent on a therapist or HCP - it's about learning a set of practical moves that you can use anywhere, anytime AND with no equipment, to start healing your body and calming your mind.

A lot of movement builders might be thinking, who actually gets to be considered “legit”?We are celebrating Black History Month, and in a very short amount of time, BackBlack has built massive momentum, which is why I had to have one of my favorite repeat guests back on the show, Floyd Jones.This incredible case study unravels how they've helped move nearly $4 million to Black-led organizations, built a directory of close to 2,000 organizations, and driven tens of thousands of people to take action.We also talk about the structural realities many Black-led organizations face: 44% have no full-time staff, and most operate on less than $30,000 a year. The real question this episode raises is what becomes POSSIBLE when trust, proximity, and community are treated as legitimate infrastructure?!Resources & LinksConnect with Floyd on LinkedIn, sign up for his newsletter, and learn more about BackBlack on their website.

Relearning basic movements like rolling, crawling, and squatting restores smoother coordination and reduces the fear-driven stiffness that worsens chronic low back pain A 12-week movement retraining program improved balance, daily function, and confidence by teaching participants how to move without triggering pain A structured walking routine nearly doubled the time people stayed pain-free after a flare, giving them longer stretches of normal movement and fewer recurrences Breaking up long sitting periods by even 40 minutes a day kept pain from worsening, showing that small increases in daily movement meaningfully change back pain trajectories Combining movement retraining, steady walking, less sitting, and mindful daily habits offers a practical, accessible strategy for easing chronic low back pain and preventing flare-ups
"Everything happens for a reason.” It sounds comforting. It sounds spiritual. But is it actually biblical?In this episode of The Mobilized Church Podcast, we challenge one of the most common Christian phrases and expose how easily superstition, fatalism, and hyper-determinism can slip into our theology. When believers assume every event is scripted or micromanaged by God, it quietly reshapes how we view evil, responsibility, prayer, obedience, and mission.We unpack the difference between God's sovereignty and superstition, permission and authorship, redemption and causation. Scripture does not portray God as the author of sin or humans as puppets. It calls us to trust God's revealed character, take responsibility for our obedience, and actively partner with Him in advancing the Kingdom.This conversation matters because disciple-making does not thrive in passivity. Movements stall when believers stop believing their obedience actually matters.If you've ever wrestled with suffering, God's will, or the tension between sovereignty and human responsibility, this episode will help you replace fatalism with biblical faith and resignation with Spirit-led action.
Quiet signals decide retention long before a donor hits “cancel.” We explore how to turn early indicators—failed payments, skipped emails, reduced engagement—into timely, human responses that save relationships and revenue. Drawing on the proven playbook of subscription businesses, we unpack how predictive insights can flag risk before supporters drift away and how small teams can deploy light-touch interventions that feel like care, not automation.You'll hear why the best results come from respectful timing and segmentation based on behavior, not guesswork. The goal isn't to send more messages; it's to send the right message at the right moment, in language that protects dignity and preserves trust.Throughout, we reframe AI as a second set of eyes—a smoke detector that notices patterns your team can't watch 24/7. It doesn't replace stewardship; it points you to where care is needed so real people can do what they do best. As attention becomes the scarcest resource, the organizations that win won't be the loudest. They'll be the ones who notice first and respond with empathy that keeps supporters close. If this resonated, follow the show, share it with a colleague who handles retention, and leave a quick review to help others find it. Your feedback guides what we build next—what's the one donor-care trigger you want to test?LettrLabs is the proud presenter of Missions to Movements.

Join us for the 2026 National Disciple Making Forum: https://discipleship.org/2026-national-disciple-making-forum/ In this episode of the Disciple Makers Podcast, host Josh Howard addresses church leaders who feel a deep, unexplainable ache for more within the church. He explores the tension between the current church structure and the dynamic, multiplying church described in the Book of Acts. Howard argues for a 'dual operating system' church that integrates both visible Sunday gatherings and an invisible system of disciple-making relationships, prayer, and missionary work. Drawing on historical examples like John Wesley and the Moravian Church, he emphasizes the need for dual engines to fuel both gathering and scattering, formation and multiplication. Howard calls on leaders to start small, embrace disciple-making, and reinvigorate the church by embedding New Testament principles into its structure, all while maintaining unity and honoring existing church frameworks.

Air Date 2/1/2026 Today we examine what's actually working against the Trump regime and the role of this year's elections. Unsurprisingly, his own voter fraud investigation just proved him a liar, Democrats are overperforming expectations in House special elections, and Zohran Mamdani's campaign based on having fun in community needs to be a model for every movement against authoritarianism.

Each step takes us into an ever-deepening relationship with God.Asking in prayer is likened to entering the Outer Court of the tabernacle. Seeking God is entering the Holy Place. Knocking is coming into the Holy of Holies—coming into union with God.Pastor Kong Hee encourages us to stay long enough to have long, unhurried discussions with the Holy Spirit. Only then will our lives be truly transformed.
On this week's episode of the podcast, Killian Clarke of Georgetown University joins Marc Lynch to discuss his new book, Return of Tyranny: Why Counterrevolutions Emerge and Succeed. Clarke explains both why counterrevolutions emerge and when they are likely to succeed. He forwards a movement-centric argument that emphasizes the strategies revolutionary leaders embrace both during their opposition campaigns and after they seize power. Movements that wage violent resistance and espouse radical ideologies establish regimes that are very difficult to overthrow. By contrast, democratic revolutions like Egypt's are more vulnerable, though Clarke also identifies a path by which they too can avoid counterrevolution. By preserving their elite coalitions and broad popular support, these movements can return to mass mobilization to thwart counterrevolutionary threats. In an era of resurgent authoritarianism worldwide, Return of Tyranny sheds light on one particularly violent form of reactionary politics.

Something was wrong long before anyone realized why.It began with the feeling of being watched—of routines noticed, of attention lingering too long. After that, the house itself seemed to react. Sounds carried intent. Movements felt deliberate. Even silence became charged, like something was waiting for a response.There were moments that crossed a line from strange into personal. A presence close enough to whisper. Objects that didn't fall so much as aim. An animal reacting before any human could.And then there was the way things mimicked the living—voices that sounded familiar, doors that opened without reason, and signs left behind that suggested something had entered… but never left.No answers were offered. No single explanation fit. Only the growing sense that whatever was there wanted acknowledgment—and wasn't finished making itself known.#RealGhostStoriesOnline #TrueParanormal #HauntedTownhouse #CreepyNeighbor #PoltergeistActivity #MimicEntity #ParanormalEncounter #GhostVoice #UnexplainedFootprints Love real ghost stories?

Award-winning leftist editorial cartoonist and columnist Ted Rall joins The Jeff Dornik Show for a candid discussion about why political movements in America repeatedly ignite with passion and then collapse without lasting impact. Drawing from Rall's latest article, “Never Mind the Democrats. Get Organized,” Jeff approaches the conversation from the right, identifying the same patterns of distraction, emotional activism, and organizational failure that plague both parties and ideological camps. Together, they'll explore why protest culture replaces discipline, why rage substitutes for strategy, and how the absence of sustained grassroots organization ensures that neither side ever delivers meaningful, long-term change.SPONSORSupermassive Black Coffee is crafted from organic, gourmet beans fire-roasted in an antique Victorian-era roaster, delivering the rich, smooth, non-acidic taste that reminds you this is how coffee was always meant to be.

Strength means little if it doesn't transfer.Day 22 focuses on force transfer — the ability to generate power in one part of the body and express it efficiently through the rest of the system. This is where strength, stability, coordination, and timing converge.Force transfer is what allows you to push off the ground and move forward, rotate through the trunk and deliver power, or absorb force and redirect it without leaking energy. When this skill is missing, movement feels heavy, disconnected, and inefficient.In this session, you'll develop:Efficient ground-to-body force transmissionCoordination between lower body, trunk, and upper bodyTiming and sequencing across joints and planesControl during force absorption and re-accelerationRather than isolating muscles, this work trains the body as an integrated system. Movements are deliberate and purposeful, emphasising quality, rhythm, and clean transitions over maximal effort.This day also reinforces a key performance principle: power is not just produced — it's channeled. When the system is organised, less effort produces more output.Connect the chain. Transfer the force. Move with intent.Day 22 sharpens the skills that turn strength into usable performance.Shaun Kober is a Mindset & Performance Specialist, with a unique skillset forged in the trenches, through the various stages of life."I shouldn't be in the position I am right now."

If a corporate partner had to tell a story about working with your nonprofit, what would they say? What companies want from nonprofit partnerships has FUNDAMENTALLY changed. That's why I'm excited for you to meet a great friend of mine, Matthew Sutton, Director of Corporate Partnerships at United Way of Greater Atlanta, to talk about how corporate partnerships are evolving and what nonprofit leaders need to understand right now. Matthew shares why companies are going deeper with fewer partners, why a multi-layer approach matters, and how nonprofits can become collaborators in a shared narrative.We're digging into real-world examples too, including a 24-month relationship-building process, and the growing role of social enterprise as nonprofits look for more predictable revenue.Resources & LinksConnect with Matthew on LinkedIn or send him an email at matthewsutton2018@gmail.com.

What if the smallest monthly gift unlocks the biggest lifetime value? We're digging into our second Monthly Giving Prediction for 2026: lower entry points will become the norm in monthly giving - and they'll outperform the high-ask mindset many of us grew up with. Donors aren't less generous; they're less willing to overcommit. That's a signal, not a setback, and it's time to design programs around the easiest yes.We break down recent data trends from major giving moments showing growth in recurring signups alongside smaller average amounts, and explain why that's good news when you care about retention and lifetime value.Drawing on lessons from the subscription economy, we look at how streaming and SaaS brands prioritize momentum over pressure, starting with doable plans and earning trust over time. The same playbook works for nonprofits: invite people in with a low, human entry point, then nurture them with clear impact stories, flexible options, and upgrade moments that feel earned.This conversation is a practical roadmap for nonprofit leaders, fundraisers, and digital teams who want sustainable revenue, wider reach, and a supporter community that stays.

In this episode, I talk to Rafael A. Martínez, an Assistant Professor at Arizona State University (ASU) in Southwest Borderlands whose work focuses on immigrant rights, mixed-status families, and Latinx cultural and historical productions in the southwest borderlands. Dr. Martínez's book with the University of Arizona Press, Illegalized: Undocumented Youth Movements in the United States, analyzes the rise of Undocumented Youth Social Movements in the U.S. and immigrant youth's contributions to the broader Immigrant Rights Movements.

Day 16 blends everything you've been building so far into one cohesive practice: dynamic stability in motion.Where earlier sessions isolated mobility and stability, this day connects them. Dynamic Stability Flow teaches the body to maintain control while moving continuously — through transitions, rotations, and changes in level or direction.This is where stability stops being static and starts becoming usable.You'll move through flowing patterns that challenge:Control through changing positionsStability during rotation, reach, and load transferCoordination between breath, trunk, and limbsSmooth transitions without collapsing or rushingThe emphasis is on control first, rhythm second, and speed last. Movements are linked together to reinforce how the body actually operates in training, sport, and life — not in isolated positions, but in connected sequences.This session also serves as a real-time feedback loop. Breaks in control, rushed transitions, or loss of posture highlight exactly where more attention is needed. Nothing is hidden when movement is continuous.Dynamic Stability Flow isn't about fatigue or intensity. It's about owning movement under flow, maintaining quality as complexity increases.Move with intention. Control the transitions. Let strength and stability travel together.Day 16 turns pieces into patterns.Shaun Kober is a Mindset & Performance Specialist, with a unique skillset forged in the trenches, through the various stages of life."I shouldn't be in the position I am right now."

In October of 2025 God began speaking this phrase "Exponential Movements, Monumental Moments," to her. for the past several months Amie has intentionally sat with the Lord to hear His heart so she could not only reveal what He wanted her to share, but He also gave her revelation in the form of instructions. This is a powerful episode that will help us better understand where we are at in this current season and it will help us to realign ourselves with God for what is to come.

In this explosive episode, Tara examines rising tensions surrounding ICE operations, local political leadership, and activist movements—focusing on how rhetoric, training materials, and misinformation can escalate real-world confrontations. The discussion centers on recent incidents where ICE agents were reportedly surrounded by crowds, the legal claims made by local officials, and newly surfaced activist training materials that encourage direct interference with arrests. Tara breaks down what is legal, what is not, and why conflicting narratives are creating dangerous confusion on the ground. The episode also explores how social media, partisan messaging, and selective framing are shaping public perception—fueling anger, fear, and the potential for violence between civilians and law enforcement.
My guest today is Dr. Robert Melillo. Dr. Melillo shares his 35-year journey from athletic injuries and chiropractic roots to developmental cognitive neuroscience and founder of the Melillo Method. Driven by his own children's challenges and a deep commitment to preserving their extraordinary gifts, he explains Autism as a treatable developmental imbalance rooted in brain immaturity—caused by retained primitive reflexes, disrupted right-left asymmetry, and poor transition from short-range to long-range connectivity. Emphasizing a bottom-up, root-cause approach over symptom management, he describes how remediating reflexes, stimulating right-brain activity, and balancing networks can unlock speech, motor control, and potential in non-speaking individuals—highlighting the human brain's unique evolutionary vulnerability and adaptability while offering hope for meaningful change without erasing unique brilliance.Dr. Melillo https://www.drrobertmelillo.comYT https://www.youtube.com/@themelillomethodInstagram https://www.instagram.com/drrobertmelillo/White Board Series: Serotonin's Role in Development for Sensory Maps (not mood) https://youtu.be/Pbovstb82i4White Board Series: Basal Ganglia (Go/No-GO), Neural Correlates, & "Motivation" https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hTW8CSPVEGcWhite Board Series: Basal Ganglia No-Go area & Arkeypallidial Cells https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XHZ_5HthUWsDaylight Computer Company, use "autism" for $50 off at https://buy.daylightcomputer.com/autismChroma Light Devices, use "autism" for 10% discount at https://getchroma.co/?ref=autismFig Tree Christian Golf Apparel & Accessories, use "autism" for 10% discount at https://figtreegolf.com/?ref=autism0:00 Dr. Robert Melillo5:24 The Nature of Gifts & Vulnerabilities with Autism15:26 The Evolution of the Human Brain & Bipedalism; CNS is to move the living organism; Left Brain, Right Brain25:20 Functional Connectivity & Movements; Left Brain-Right Brain36:46 The Immature Brain; Autism means "Self"38:54 Interventions for Maturing the Brain & Movements42:46 The Melillo Method & Upstream Individualized Interventions47:47 GI and the Nervous Systems; Excitation/Inhibition52:21 Melillo Method55:40 Giving a Voice to Non-Verbals; Sensory Map, Somatosensory & Homunculus1:03:00 The Basal Ganglia & Motor Movements1:06:34 Bridging Clinical & Neuroscience Research & MethodsX: https://x.com/rps47586YT: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCGxEzLKXkjppo3nqmpXpzuAemail: info.fromthespectrum@gmail.com

Send us a textKyle Talks with Adam Swart, CEO of Crowds on DemandIn this episode of Kyle Talks, I sit down with Adam Swart, the founder and CEO of Crowds on Demand, a company that organizes and manages demonstrations, rallies, and public advocacy campaigns.This is a conversation I went into without a fixed conclusion — and that's intentional.Adam's work exists at the intersection of belief, optics, influence, and ethics. Some people see it as strategic messaging. Others see it as manipulation. Rather than tell you what to think, this episode is about slowing down and actually talking through the discomfort.In this conversation, we explore:• How modern protests and public movements are organized • The difference between organic expression and coordinated messaging • Why being paid to advocate feels morally complicated to many people • Where Adam personally draws ethical lines in his work • Whether compensation invalidates belief or participation • How media optics shape what the public perceives as “authentic” • What this industry reveals about human motivation and persuasion • How listeners can stay curious without becoming cynicalThis episode isn't about defending or condemning an industry. It's about understanding how influence works and what it means for all of us trying to navigate public conversations honestly.If you've ever found yourself unsure how to feel about modern activism, messaging, or protest culture — this conversation is for you.About the GuestAdam Swart is the founder and CEO of Crowds on Demand, a firm that specializes in organizing advocacy campaigns, demonstrations, and public engagement efforts across a wide range of issues.His work has been featured by major media outlets, and he brings firsthand insight into how modern public movements are built, funded, and presented to the world.Why This Episode MattersKyle Talks exists to bring back the art of conversation — especially around topics that are uncomfortable, polarizing, or misunderstood.This episode asks a simple but difficult question:If a message is true, but engineered, does it change how you feel about it?If this conversation challenged you, intrigued you, or made you pause — that's the point.Let's talk.Social Media:Insta/X: kyleTHEhortonYoutube: KyletalkssTiktok: KyleTalkssIntro: Head In The Clouds by Matthew MorelockOutro: Surfaces Type Beat - Jellyfish BeatsSupport the show

Starts in Big Data and then happens everywhereMatt 2026 PredictionsWill happen:Sam Altman is caught lying to investors (and no one cares)30% of the S&P 500 will seek to implement a “retail voting” program by the fallHighest retail vote companies: Tesla (~30%), Intel (~30%), AT&T (~30%), Exxon (~30%), Apple (~30%), Pfizer (~30%), Verizon (~25%) - real paragons of board independenceCompanies where executives are suggesting college degrees or elite college degrees are “stupid” do not stop hiring largely from pools of people who have college degrees and/or went to elite colleges25% of CEO pay packages in the US move to “3 year vesting, pretend moonshot, billion plus, no clawback, no strings”Jay Hoag will not be voted off the Netflix boardIn the absence of engagement, precatory proposals, or other shareholder rights, there is one thing for shareholders left: vote no on director campaigns from NON ACTIVISTS (by which I mean institutional investors / pension funds with less than 5% or 13G filers)Specifically - there will be a 150% increase in exempt solicitationsAt least 10% of US large cap companies will have AI “board advisors” - bots that advise boards on legal and governance issuesCould happen:Mass labor movementThe 2025 “badge of honor” that was layoffs, the absolute bonanza of CEO pay, the explosion of “AI billionaires” and “AI took your job” stories, and the attempt to crush labor rights will escalate into the first violent confrontation between employees and their corporate overlordsWidespread strikes will hit, but in the least likely of places: tech and finance, where employees are replaced with AI faster than in other sectorsNatural outgrowth of the “it's someone else's fault” movement - everything is someone else's fault, not management's fault, with the primary culprit of lazy employees - we fired you and it's your fault, not oursThe anti-woke go woke and realize how much data they don't have, but need, to be anti-wokeAt least 1 large company announces it will no longer produce any employee metrics at all, not the count of employees, the names of executives (except where demanded by regulation), or any information that people work thereWith Oracle pioneering the co-Vice Chair and co-CEO roles on the board, and Target pioneering the underperforming executive chair, we see the first round of “Co-Executive Chairs” where the new ex-CEO stays on the board just under the old ex-CEOSeems absurd, but entirely possible:The first billion dollar option pay package for a non-executive director (7 year vest, zero at risk for performance)JPMorgan's new AI proxy voting robot starts an activist campaign seeking to vote out the Tesla boardA US board pays a “retention bonus” worth $20m in options due to the threat of Trump administration intervention and the CEO is close with the administrationExxon will add “shareholder demands” as a risk in their annual report
MAGA Is Tired of Talk—Where Is the Action? Andrew Branca. ACU New Talent Alert. MAGA: people are tired of slogans and social-media clips. They want to see action, timelines, measurable results — not trailers, hype videos, or press statements saying “we're just getting started.” Supporters understand courts will fight back. They understand judges will interfere. What they don't accept anymore is pre-emptive surrender. Announce the action. Force the challenge. Make the courts own the obstruction. That's how political capital is built. Movements don't die from opposition — they die from paralysis. If enforcement becomes theater, trust collapses. And once trust is gone, slogans stop working.

CONSTITUTIONS, BELIEF, AND THE EMPIRE Colleague Gregory Copley. Copley describes the US Constitution as the "de facto crown" holding the American empire together, though it faces challenges from populist movements. He argues that a "faith-based electorate" or a "belief in beliefs" is essential for social unity, noting that when people stop believing in God, they will believe in anything. Monarchy utilizes mysticism and continuity to maintain this unity, a quality difficult for republics to replicate. NUMBER 15 1689 CHARLES II AND LADY JANE ENROUTE TO BRISTOL
