- Praise for Trump's high-energy speech, using charts and hard data to contrast current results with Biden-era policies on inflation, jobs, crime, and the border. - Claims that Biden and Democrats deliberately enabled mass illegal immigration and that Trump is now reversing long-term damage with measurable results. - Attention shifts to the Brown University shooting, where police leadership is criticized for delays, missing information, and failure to interview all eyewitnesses. - The episode explores explosive new reporting on what the shooter may have yelled, suggesting either ideological terrorism or a targeted political assassination, with major implications either way.

A Trapped Buyer is somebody moving off emotion instead of wisdom, staring at a chart like it is gonna save them. That is desperation, not Strategy. And understand this, that same spirit been hunting us long before the stock market. Trapped in the hood, trapped in poverty, trapped in jail cells, trapped in mental prisons. A system designed to keep you chasing instead of building. The market only exposes what life already revealed. When you lack discipline, you buy tops. When you lack patience, you sell bottoms. That is not a trading problem, that is a character problem. But once your mind get free, your money follow. Once you get knowledge, the trap break. The market stop being gambling and start being divine order. Numbers become language. Charts become truth. And you realize wealth is not luck, it alignment. That is when you stop being a Trapped buyer and start moving like somebody who understands Power, Purpose, and Ownership.Trapped Buyers | Wallstreet Trapper (Episode 172) Trappin TuesdaysJoin our Exclusive Patreon!!!

Patrick answers theological questions and raw, personal struggles live on the air, moving from a listener’s confusion over the Gospel of Matthew and the meaning of “until” regarding Joseph and Mary, to the deeply emotional topic of how children of divorce are treated within Catholic school communities. He answers with biblical context, gentle wisdom, and resources for those wrestling with scrupulosity, never shying from addressing social exclusion or comforting wounded hearts. Alex - I am struggling with the Gospel today with Matthew. Matthew states that Mary and Joseph didn't have relations 'until' she gave birth to a son. Can you clarify this? (00:30) Justine - I am wondering why families who are divorced are treated like lepers, especially children? (07:15) Manuel – You made a comment on a song you didn't like called 'Mary Did You Know'. I believe she didn't know. (13:48) Scott - My relatives say they can't accept a God who would murder people and they use Numbers 31:17-18 as their example. How can I respond? (17:18) Gertrude - I was a victim of divorce. My son and I were ostracized and not invited anywhere. (26:31) Samantha - If you forget to say a sin in confession, do you need to mention that sin the next time you go to confession? (30:12) Chris – What is the correct way to pray the Memorare? (35:59) Sam - Can you help establish a timeline between Jesus's birth and Joseph taking family to Egypt and then returning to the Temple? (40:56)
A Bigger Life Prayer and Bible Devotionals with Pastor Dave Cover
This is Christian Meditation for A Bigger Life – a time for you to relax your body and refocus your mind to experience the reality of God's presence. I'm Dave Cover. I want to help you with Christian meditation where you can break through all the distractions and experience God's presence through biblically guided imagination. As we come to the end of one year and the beginning of a new year, let me pray a very old blessing that God gave to Moses to have said over his people. You might think it's weird to be listening to a recording of me praying for you without me knowing specifically who you are. But God knows. God knows all who will listen to this when I am praying this for you. So let me speak and pray these God-given words over you… Numbers 6:24-26 (NIV) “The LORD bless you and keep you; the LORD make his face shine on you and be gracious to you; the LORD turn his face toward you and give you peace.” Then God says to Moses in the next verse… Numbers 6:27 (NIV) “So they will put my name on the Israelites, and I will bless them.” Who can you share this podcast with?

Not all clients are created equal—and some quietly drain your firm's time, energy, and profits. In episode 593 of the Lawyerist Podcast, Stephanie Everett talks with Affinity Consulting's Jeff Krause about the hidden cost of bad clients and how law firms can use data to make better decisions about who they serve. Jeff breaks down his Moneyball-inspired profit formula to show how client quality impacts leads, conversion rates, revenue, and margins. They explore why discount-seeking clients create compounding damage, how setting clearer expectations can improve client behavior, and when it makes sense to let certain clients walk away. A closer look at the tension between profitability and access to justice, and how intentional business models can support both.

In real estate, this time of year exposes something we don't talk about: feeling stuck. As the year winds down and a new one begins, even experienced agents can feel like they're spinning their wheels or like they just don't know what to do. And the truth is, there's nothing unusual about that. Every one of us hits moments where our motivation dips, our habits slip, or our thoughts get louder than our actions. But feeling stuck doesn't mean something is wrong. More often, it simply means we've gotten caught inside our own heads. What makes a difference isn't feeling bad when we get stuck; it's learning how to move through this quickly, and there are a few highly effective strategies you can try. In this episode, we unpack what actually causes that “stuck” feeling, why it shows up more frequently than most agents realize, and the practical ways to regain momentum. Things You'll Learn In This Episode You're only one action away from momentum Feeling stuck isn't a sign to stop; it's a sign to move. How does simply doing one small thing reset our entire trajectory? The observer mindset changes everything We get stuck when we believe the story in our head. What happens when we step outside ourselves and question the narrative instead of obeying it? Momentum creates clarity, not the other way around Most agents wait to “feel ready” before they act, but clarity comes after movement. What new possibilities open up once we just start? Numbers reveal your patterns before you get stuck Declines in contacts, appointments, or consistency don't happen overnight. How does tracking our metrics help us catch a slump before we're in one?

In this episode of Run the Numbers, CJ Gustafson sits down with Larry Contrella, General Partner at JMI Equity, to unpack how JMI invests in software without financial engineering or roll-up strategies. Larry explains how the firm builds conviction through founder relationships, long-term partnership, and a product-and-brand-first view of durable growth. They discuss how JMI supports companies through scaling, why operating partners keep returning, and how underwriting looks different in mission-driven sectors like K–12 and nonprofit tech where customers are schools and communities, not Fortune 500s. Larry's background as a competitive runner at Penn ties the conversation together with a clear ethos: patience, discipline, and playing the long game.—SPONSORS:Mercury is business banking built for builders, giving founders and finance pros a financial stack that actually works together.

Welcome back to another episode of the Couple Casuals Podcast!In this episode, Stefano sits down once again with Mario (4TheNorth) — one of Canada's most influential political commentators — for a wide-ranging, no-nonsense conversation about where the country is heading and why so many Canadians feel left behind.Mario breaks down how Canada reached this moment: unchecked government spending, distorted economic data, unsustainable immigration levels, and a political system that increasingly avoids accountability. From youth unemployment and part-time job manipulation, to food bank usage hitting record highs, he explains why the official narrative no longer matches everyday reality.In this conversation, Stefano and Mario dig into:• why Canadians across all backgrounds feel “cheated” by the system• how immigration policy is straining housing, healthcare, and wages• why economic “job growth” isn't what it appears to be• how government spending is being reclassified to mask massive deficits• why political trust is collapsing — and why independent voices are growing• Mark Carney's leadership, continuity from Trudeau, and what may come nextMario also explains why he has no interest in becoming a politician, despite massive influence — and why speaking freely outside the system may be more powerful than holding office inside it.This episode is candid, fact-driven, and grounded in lived reality — a must-watch for anyone trying to understand Canadian politics beyond headlines and spin.Grab a casual, lock in, and let's get into it.Host: Stefano (stefo)Instagram: @drstefohttps://www.instagram.com/drstefo?igs...Guest: Mario Zelaya Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/mario4thenorth?igsh=MXc2YTNlNmRta2N2NA==TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@officialmariozelaya?_r=1&_t=ZS-92JJpiCu5siX: https://x.com/mario4thenorth?s=21&t=Cgz_58zASW84g-pj2PUNtwThis episode is brought to you by Canada First — secure your home with Canada's best home fortification.

With economic approval hovering in the mid-30s and affordability still squeezing households, this episode cuts through the spin to examine why voters remain unhappy. From a mediocre jobs market and rising youth unemployment to AI-driven layoffs and tariff policies that raise manufacturing costs, the challenges are real and measurable. The message is simple: gimmicks won't fix this. Acknowledging the problem and pivoting toward policies that actually bring prices down may be the only way forward—politically and economically.

Trump To Address Nation As Poll Numbers Drop! Is Brown University Covering Up Identity of Shooter? Susie Wiles Reportedly In Trouble! Trump Orders Blockade Of Venezuela
Say the good news — because there is good news. Tara breaks down the explosive Susie Wiles fallout while spotlighting eye-popping economic numbers that show a dramatic shift in jobs, government size, and enforcement. From collapsing federal bureaucracy to a surge in native-born employment, this episode separates personal betrayal from policy results — and explains why both can be true at the same time.
From a brutal Vanity Fair betrayal to jaw-dropping economic reversals, this episode pulls together the threads the media won't. Tara breaks down why Susie Wiles' interview wasn't just disloyal — it was strategic — while also laying out undeniable data on jobs, government cuts, wages, and inflation. Plus: disturbing questions surrounding the Brown University shooting and bombshell revelations about the Mar-a-Lago raid that change everything. ⚠️
It's Wednesday, December 17th, and Norm Hitzges is already treating the Cowboys like it's January—because let's be honest, they've been playing for “next year” for a while now.Norm lays out the real offseason problem: this team can score like a contender (historically so), yet they're wandering toward mediocrity because the defense couldn't stop a parade—much less an NFL offense. And now comes the big-money question: do you spend $30M a year to keep George Pickens… or do you use that money (and maybe even the Trayvon Diggs cap savings) to build a defense that doesn't actively ruin your weekend?Then we pivot to college football, where head coaches are getting fired like it's a Black Friday sale—because one man (Kurt Cignetti) showed the entire sport what a fast turnaround looks like. And now every “big program” is staring at Indiana like: Wait… y'all did WHAT?Sarcasm? Yes. Numbers? Also yes. Existential dread? Of course.

Futures saw pressure in the hour ahead of the opening bell, brought partly by an uptick in unemployment and higher-than-expected job losses in October's jobs report. Kevin Hincks says the numbers "aren't as bad" as investors are pricing them. He points to changes in federal employment as the biggest asterisk in the report and makes the case retail sales are also better than the headline number suggests. Kevin turns to the international front where positive developments in the Russian-Ukraine War can dampen volatility. ======== Schwab Network ========Empowering every investor and trader, every market day.Options involve risks and are not suitable for all investors.
