Monday’s remarks sought to highlight what McCarthy called Biden’s “irresponsible” economic policy after the speaker last month accused the commander-in-chief of being “missing in action” from debt ceiling talks. The speaker in March suggested cutting non-defense spending back to pre-inflationary levels and introducing more work requirements for some welfare programs. Biden rolled out a $6.9 trillion budget proposal the same month, which would have increased the national debt to $51 trillion over the next decade. In January, the federal government exceeded its roughly $31 trillion debt limit, halting its ability to borrow funds for programs like Social Security and Medicare. Congress last approved a debt ceiling increase in December 2021. Also in January, Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen said the federal borrowing limit will need to be increased by June of this year to prevent a default on America’s national debt. McCarthy said Biden’s unwillingness to negotiate as commander-in-chief differs greatly from his past openness to fiscal reform as a US senator and even as Barack Obama’s vice president. Both the White House and House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries (D-NY) compared McCarthy’s push for spending cuts to “hostage-taking.” https://www.nbcnewyork.com/news/local/crime-and-courts/2-arrested-for-allegedly-operating-illegal-chinese-police-station-in-nyc-sources-say/4247736/ 2 Arrested for Allegedly Operating Illegal Chinese ‘Police Station' in NYC Two people have been arrested by the FBI on allegations they helped operate an illegal police station for the government of China in lower Manhattan. The two are charged with conspiring to act as agents for the Chinese government. The FBI said “Harry” Lu Jianwang, 61, of the Bronx, and Chen Jinping, 59, of Manhattan, were arrested Monday morning at their homes in New York City. "The defendants worked together to establish the first overseas police station in the United States on behalf of the Fuzhou branch of the (Ministry of Public Security)," the FBI said in a statement. In addition to the New York complaint, two other complaints were filed - one against 34 members of Beijing's Municipal Public Security Bureau, and another against a group of 10 people that includes eight Chinese government officials. The common thread in the three complaints - that the suspects allegedly worked to intimidate, harass and threaten "wanted" Chinese nationals inside the United States. Last November, the FBI said it was aware that China was operating a de facto police station in Manhattan, outside of proper procedure or authority, as part of global network of such outposts. It followed a Sept. 2022 investigation by a nongovernmental organization, Safeguard Defenders, which reported there were dozens of such centers worldwide conducting police operations. Chinese officials decried that characterization, saying the "service centers" were volunteer-run and had nothing to do with policing. But the New York Times reported in January that Chinese state media had explicitly described the centers as policing facilities, acting in other countries without collaborating with local authorities. The Times also reported that the FBI had searched the East Broadway facility in the fall of 2022. https://www.businessinsider.com/nancy-pelosi-campaign-pays-man-fundraising-text-lawsuit-2023-4 Pelosi campaign pays Illinois man $7,500 after he sued over 'invasive and harassing' fundraising texts An Illinois man is now $7,500 richer after accusing Nancy Pelosi of violating federal robocalling laws. In October 2022, a Bolingbrook, Illinois resident named Jorge Rojas filed a 13-page lawsuit in the US District Court for the Northern District of Illinois that accused the former speaker of the House and her campaign of violating the Telephone Consumer Protection Act of 1991. That law, which has been found to apply to text messages in addition to calls, applies restrictions to robocalling and requires telemarketers not to contact individuals who've placed themselves on the Do Not Call Registry. "As the Supreme Court has explained, Americans passionately disagree about many things," reads the introduction of Rojas's complaint. "But they are largely united in their disdain for robocalls." According to the suit, Rojas received 21 texts from Pelosi's campaign from November 2021 to July 2022 despite previously placing himself on the registry in 2008 to "obtain solitude from invasive and harassing telemarketing calls." He went on to argue that he "experienced frustration, annoyance, irritation, and a sense that his privacy has been invaded" by the texts. Arguing that the texts constituted "malicious, intentional, willful, reckless, wanton and negligent disregard" for his rights, Rojas sought at least $31,500 in damages from Pelosi's campaign, including $1,500 for each text received. But months later, on February 22, Rojas moved to dismiss the suit against Pelosi. And according to federal campaign finance disclosures made public on Friday, the dismissal came after Rojas received a $7,500 payment marked "Settlement" from Pelosi's congressional campaign. Rojas and Pelosi's campaign did not immediately respond to Insider's request for comment. https://www.foxnews.com/us/teen-takeover-terrorizes-chicago-hundreds-children-destroy-property-attack-tourists ‘Teen Takeover’ terrorizes Chicago as hundreds of teenagers destroy property, attack tourists Hundreds of teenagers stormed the streets of downtown Chicago, smashing car windows, attacking bystanders and sending panicked tourists running from the sound of gunfire. Fox 32 cameras captured video of teenagers crowding the streets and police seeking to restore order to the area. Large groups of teens were seen blasting music from Bluetooth speakers and roaming in front of traffic, with some attempting to gain access to the city's Millennium Park, which is off-limits to those under 21 after certain hours, and the downtown Art Institute. Some teens in the group began jumping up and down on cars, smashing windows and attacking people inside. One woman told Fox 32 her husband was attacked from the driver side of his vehicle and beaten after a group of teens jumped up and down on the couple's windshield. The man was taken to a local hospital for treatment. Hundreds of police officers assisted by SWAT teams descended on downtown in an attempt to restore order as gunfire was reported multiple times amid the unfolding scene. Police were seen escorting frightened tourists back to their cars or hotels to escape the chaos, and traffic on Chicago's Michigan Avenue ground to a halt as police attempted to restore order. Police say a 6-year-old boy was shot in the arm near the Chicago Loop and a 17-year-old boy was shot in the leg. Both were taken to Northwestern Hospital and listed in fair condition, according to a report from WLS. Fox 32 reported that the chaos appeared to be another "Teen Takeover" of the city that was planned on social media, noting that a similar scene played out in Chicago last year.

In 2013, Colleen Murphy's daughter, Lauren, was hit by a car and suffered severe brain damage. This is a miracle story you do NOT want to miss.  Colleen Murphy is a wife, mother of seven, author, and public speaker.  Tragedy struck Colleen's family when her second oldest daughter, Lauren, was hit by a car and suffered severe brain damage. Colleen's main focus became helping piece Lauren back together again. With the help of specialists from all over the country, her family and friends, as well as her strong faith, she was able to do just that.  Today, Colleen and Lauren speak together as a team, inspiring thousands of people by sharing the details of Lauren's tragic accident, never-give-up attitude, and miraculous recovery. Colleen shares this raw, incredible story in her interview and how to unlock hope -- when life seems hopeless:   "There are several low points in the book but one that stands out was when Lauren was an inpatient at RIC and they sent her to Northwestern Hospital for a CT scan, the nurse at RIC did not stay with her. Lauren was still medically fragile, and I was inept at caring for her. She had C-diff and I had to try and clean her without help. Once I finished, she began vomiting and I had to launch myself across the metal bars of the bed to try and hold her head up, so she didn't choke. I was soaked in vomit and scared. A while later the doctor finally came in to give me the findings of the CT scans and to let me know that Lauren would need a fourth brain surgery. Suddenly the fact that I was soaked with vomit through my bra, was freezing, and had a bag full of diarrhea-covered clothes seemed rather insignificant."

@aj.afterbabyfit - afterbabyfit.com / @sweatandshineon - sweatandshineon.com Today is the day that Alex shares her birth story. The first of her three children was born in October 2015. During the entire pregnancy, Alex was doing Crossfit and was feeling very mentally and physically strong an decided not to do an epidural. When feeling all the feels during labor it forced her to start pushing earlier than she would have with an epidural (now having had a second birth to compare, this is her opinion). Her sons head ended up in the high 90th percentile and although who knows if she would have suffered the same pelvic floor trauma but that in combination with pushing a bit early feels to her like there may have been more damage done. Alex felt so prepared for the actual birth – physically and mentally but the after birth was the part that she felt really surprised by and rocked her world. Luckily the pregnancy and delivery were fairly textbook but the part that no one talks about, the after, was the part that was the most surprising. Second birth she had a surprise pregnancy and surprise twins, due October 2017. Turns out the first month you are off birth control you have a 50% higher chance of having twins (Book: Oh Shit I'm having Twins). This one her doctor really wanted her to have an epidural and she was totally fine with that – she had done it naturally, “checked that box” and was ready for the epidural. The entire twin experience is different during a vaginal delivery as well, you deliver in the operating room just in case something happens and an emergency c-section is required. Everything felt so, dare we say, pleasant at the hospital with the second pregnancy and delivery and couldn't have been more different than the first one. The day went along as planned and when she was 10 cm she moved to the OR and she thinks because her body was fully ready at 10 cm and she didn't have the other pain she was able to fully focus on the breath work to efficiently deliver both girls. Again, the aftermath was a whole different ball game but very thankfully the delivery was smooth. Special thanks to all the wonderful doctors and nurses at Northwestern Hospital. --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/comfortablyuncomfortable/message Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/comfortablyuncomfortable/support

As a licensed architect and LEED Fellow, Susan Heinking has over a decade of experience designing and managing sustainability programs and initiatives. She currently leads all of Pepper Construction's sustainable projects and is also an active advocate for sustainability in the Chicago and other regional markets. Her many initiatives include Chicago's Energy Benchmarking Ordinance, the AIA2030 Chicago Working Group, co-chairing Chicago's AIA COTE knowledge group, participating in RETROFIT Chicago, and working with the Chicago Biomimicry Group. In addition, she leads over $2.4 billion in high-performance projects. Some of my top accomplishments include designing the first biophilic Walgreens flagship store in Northwestern Hospital, managing the Google Chicago headquarters sustainability efforts, designing the first functional Net Zero construction trailer and currently working to make the world's first net-zero zoo in Cincinnati. Her work at Pepper enables her to put design into action, provide decision-making tools that determine investment paybacks and reduced operating costs, lead Pepper's projects to their sustainability goals, assist clients with their corporate environmental compliance during construction, and put existing buildings on a path to sustainability. Her vision for Pepper includes expanding the high-performance perspective to create greater value through building performance and human performance. This includes enhancing existing efforts with energy modeling, ROI analysis, and local utility incentives as well as building on Pepper's healthy jobsite initiative "Nothing Hits the Floor" program and promoting the use of healthy building materials and construction practices to protect the long-term health of construction workers. She holds a Master of Architecture degree from the University of Oregon and is an active presenter at multiple national sustainability conventions.    Show Highlights  Susan shares how a mentor is an important asset in boosting your career Understand the process of how to sell sustainability to clients How to avoid being a line item in a budget and clarify the green benefits  Learn Susan's Four Solutions strategy to every building and other valuable programs  The benefits of  shifting the conversation from sustainability to high performance and building functionality   “I really look at architecture and building as just another form of art in the community. The fact that buildings impact so many people, people that you're probably never going to meet, I think that you have a personal tie into everything that you touch, that you design, that you build.

If you can’t sell your business, you don’t get any customers, and therefore you don’t get any money. “Sales” is the process finding someone with a problem you can solve and explaining that you can fix that problem. Why did Alan struggle to sell his own business at the start? What is the problem that Tallis’ business is solving? How has Tallis clarified her business’ goal? The triad: include three points when you make your pitch. How do people accidentally overwhelm listeners during their pitch? What’s the best way to start a pitch? Never end your pitch with Q&A. How can you set up a strong close if you have to include Q&A? At the close, it’s important to actually ask the potential customer to buy the product. “If you don’t ask, you don’t get.” What does Tallis want to ask at the close of her pitch to Northwestern? How did Alan help a group of students pitch for an advertisement with a really strong open? How to deliver a strong pitch on the phone?
