Pam Bondi seems determined to make the Department of Justice an ethics-free workplace. Bondi continues to tear down DOJ's ethical guardrails. First, she fired the DOJ's top ethics advisor and didn't replace him. Then, she fired the head of the Office of Professional Responsibility (OPR), that's the office responsible for investigating allegations of misconduct by DOJ lawyers, and she didn't replace him either.So we now have two rudderless ethical ships adrift at the Department of Justice.But Bondi's not done. She now is trying to block state bar ethics organizations from investigating allegations of misconduct by DOJ attorneys.Here's our call action: we have 30 days to go online at Regulations.gov and make our voices heard.Here is the link: https://www.regulations.gov/document/...Find Glenn on Substack: glennkirschner.substack.comSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
Welcome to a heavy, packed episode of the Afterburn Podcast. Today, we are covering breaking news out of the Middle East, rapid tactical escalations, and a highly concerning mystery stateside. We open today's show by addressing the tragic breaking news regarding the U.S. Air Force KC-135 Stratotanker mishap in western Iraq. We discuss the known details of the mid-air collision during high-tempo Operation Epic Fury refueling operations, the inherent and often-overlooked dangers of nighttime tanking under combat conditions, and we honor the American crew members who lost their lives. Next, we transition into our Day 13 update for Operation Epic Fury. The U.S. has unleashed the colossal 30,000-pound GBU-57 Massive Ordnance Penetrator (MOP). We analyze the strategic strike on the Parchin military complex outside of Tehran, a facility long suspected of nuclear weapon development. Despite the regime's efforts to harden the site, the deployment of the "Mountain Buster" proves there is nowhere to hide. Finally, we close out the episode with the bizarre and unsettling news regarding retired Major General William Neil McCasland. We discuss the details surrounding his sudden disappearance from his New Mexico home, the active Silver Alert issued by the Bernalillo County Sheriff's Office, and the wild speculation—ranging from his past command at the Phillips Research Site at Kirtland AFB to the resurfacing of old UAP and Roswell lore—that has taken over the internet in his absence. 00:00 Intro 01:56 KC-135 06:01 Day 13 Update 14:57 General MaCasland Air Force Officer Qualifying Test (AFOQT) Prep with AFOQT Wingman https://afoqtwingman.com/Code: AFTERBURN for 10% off

Residents are mounting opposition to projects big and small in communities across Northeast Ohio, from a data center to a service garage. Will the developments happen anyway? An overtime surge in the Cuyahoga County Sheriff's Office led to a legal battle over control of the sheriff's budget. This week, it was ballooning overtime in the Cleveland Division of Police that prompted City Council scrutiny. Ohio Sen. John Husted testified for the defense in the corruption trial of two FirstEnergy executives, and the prosecution's final question to him incensed the defense, which accused prosecutors of misconduct. A former Cleveland City Council member who earlier served as an advocate for lead-safe homes is now the city's lead safety chief. And keep your eyes peeled for Bigfoot in Portage County. There have been a number of purported sightings this week.

Why did police in Arkansas lie about Charity Beallis' final divorce hearing in their latest press release in the case? After the Sebastian County Sheriffs Office released a strange statement indicating that Charity died by suicide and her 6-year-old twins died by homicide, investigative Journalists Mandy Matney and Liz Farrell dug into the records to find out exactly what happened in that hearing hours before Charity and her children died. Sources say that Charity was shot twice on the evening of Dec. 2 in Bonanza, Arkansas. A new investigation reveals turmoil between the sheriff's office and Charity before the murders and connections that make us suspicious of corruption. While a police press release attempts to absolve Randy Beallis from the crime — which he has never been named a suspect of and says he was not responsible for the deaths of his family members — we still have questions. Let's Dive in…
A U.S. Tomahawk cruise missile struck a girls' school in the Iranian city of Minab during strikes on an adjacent Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps naval base. The attack killed at least 165-175 people, most of them children inside the school. The Pentagon has launched a formal investigation into the incident. President Trump was asked about the strike in multiple press interactions, where he suggested that Iran could be responsible and stated he did not know enough details while noting that the Pentagon is investigating. Iranian authorities have condemned the attack as a deliberate war crime carried out by the United States and Israel. No final conclusions from the ongoing Pentagon investigation have been publicly released. WE ALSO COVER: 172 million barrels of oil released from reserve. Trump declares victory in Iran.

Four year old Nyleen Kay Marshall disappeared on June 25, 1983, in Helena National Forest near Clancy, Montana. She was attending a picnic with her family and playing with other children near a creek. Nyleen was last seen talking to an unidentified man wearing a jogging suit when she seemingly vanished within minutes. Authorities conducted a massive search involving thousands of volunteers, helicopters, and tracking dogs, but no trace of her was ever found. Two years later, an anonymous man sent letters and made phone calls claiming he had abducted Nyleen and was raising her, though investigators were never able to identify him or confirm the claims. The case remains unsolved and is still considered a non-family abduction. Anyone with information about Nyleen's case is asked to call Jefferson County Sheriff's Office 406-225-4075 or The National Center for Missing and Exploited Children at 1-800-843-5678 reference # 601812.

CRE Exchange: Commercial Real Estate, Property Valuations, Real Estate Analytics and Property Tax
Note: This episode was recorded prior to recent developments in the Middle East and the associated impact on global energy markets. Some macroeconomic context discussed in this episode reflects conditions at the time of recording. Lenders are re-engaging, origination activity is picking up, and the market is beginning to find its footing around the wall of maturities, but rising operating expenses are outpacing rent growth in select segments, and a new set of macro uncertainties is changing the capital markets math for CRE. In this episode, we're joined by Brian Bailey, Senior Managing Director and Head of Research at Trimont, to examine CRE debt market conditions, sector-level operating trends, and the risks the industry may be underestimating heading into 2026. Brian draws on 14 years as the Federal Reserve System's CRE subject matter expert and Trimont's $700B loan servicing portfolio to share what the data is revealing about credit conditions, expense pressures, and lender behavior across the market.

A comedy Formula 1 podcast reviewing the Australian Grand Prix, George Russell's win for Mercedes, Ferrari strategy chaos and the latest F1 discussion.Season 7 of The Monkey Seat rolls on — proving Tom and Karl have now spent seven years confidently misunderstanding Formula 1.In Episode 138, the lads review the Australian Grand Prix, where George Russell takes the win and Mercedes suddenly look frighteningly dominant. Is it a sign of things to come in 2026… or just the annual Melbourne madness? Either way, the boys have opinions — and as usual, they don't line up.Meanwhile Ferrari strategy strikes again, Aston Martin turn out to be less terrible than expected, and the discussion drifts into the general state of modern F1. Drivers complaining, fans complaining, everyone complaining — except Tom, who firmly believes they should stop whining and just drive the cars.Somewhere in the middle of all this, Tom goes on a surprisingly educational mini history of Formula 1, explaining why change in the sport isn't just inevitable… it's essential.And because this is The Monkey Seat, things quickly descend into chaos. Karl begins redesigning his office layout live during the podcast, furniture is apparently moving mid-recording, and the YouTube chat joins the madness with live banter throughout the episode.Expect Driver of the Day debates, Dick of the Day accusations, off-topic tangents, and the usual Monkey Seat nonsense — because if you're here for professional analysis, you're definitely in the wrong garage.If you want serious F1 discussion, head over to Grid Talk. But if you prefer your Australian GP review with chaos, sarcasm, and interior design updates, you're exactly where you should be.Catch Tom and Karl behaving slightly more professionally on the Grid Talk Podcast @gridtalkuk on all socials.Check out f1chronicle.com for motorsport articles written by people who use punctuation, and visit linktr.ee/gridtalkuk for the full Grid Talk universe.Find The Monkey Seat on Spotify, Apple Music, Pocket Casts, YouTube, Anchor, Castbox, Radio Public, TuneIn and Breaker — or just shout “Ferrari strategy meeting!” into the void and wait for the chaos.

To be an attorney at the Department of Justice, you have to have a license to practice law issued by one of the 50 states or the District of Columbia. Against this backdrop, let's turn to the new reporting: Pam Bondi is trying to get rid of all of the ethical guardrails at the Department of Justice. First, she fired the head DOJ ethics attorney. Then she fired the head of the Office of Professional Responsibility - OPR - the organization that investigates allegations of misconduct by DOJ attorneys.Now Bondi is trying to violate states rights by seeking to prohibit state bar ethics offices from investigating attorney misconduct of lawyers who hold law licenses in their state. But here's the good news: there's an opportunity for we the people to weigh in, make our voices heard, and oppose this latest effort by Bondi to destroy ethical guardrails at the Department of Justice. Glenn sat down with former pardon attorney Liz Oyer to discuss this latest attempt by Bondi to destroy ethical guardrails at the DOJ.See the link below for how you can weigh in and register your opposition.To submit your opposition to this DOJ rule change: Regulations.govSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

In March 2025, the community of Dixie County, Florida, rallied around a 15-year-old boy reportedly fighting a losing battle with cancer. Local businesses like Papa Luigi's held fundraisers, and a GoFundMe campaign drew in thousands from neighbors eager to help pay for "doctor visits and surgery." But by February 2026, the Dixie County Sheriff's Office revealed a much darker reality: the boy never had cancer, and his actual medical care was fully covered by Medicaid. --For early, ad free episodes and monthly exclusive bonus content, join our Patreon!

The studio is about to get a whole lot younger… and possibly a whole lot dumber (in the best possible way).On this episode of The Rizzuto Show, Rizz reveals that his teenage son and a group of friends are heading into the studio for what can only be described as a generational experiment. The kids apparently built an actual whiteboard presentation just to convince Rizz to let them on the air. Are they future radio stars? Are they just trying to skip school? Or is this the beginning of a full-blown “Teen Takeover” of the show? The crew prepares for the incoming chaos while also debating the most important parenting question of the day: how embarrassing will dad be on live radio?Before the teenage invasion begins, the gang plays a hilarious game of “Who Costs More on Cameo?” featuring comedians and celebrities you absolutely forgot were even on Cameo. The crew tries to guess who charges more for a personalized video message: Kevin from The Office or Andrew Dice Clay? Bam Margera or Michael Rapaport? Cedric the Entertainer or Craig Kilborn? The answers are surprising, occasionally ridiculous, and proof that some celebrities definitely know their worth… while others might need to bump their price by about $100.Then it's time for the legendary Crap on Celebrities segment, where the entertainment world once again proves it's stranger than fiction. The crew breaks down the bizarre story of a woman arrested after allegedly firing shots outside Rihanna's home. There's also a wild coincidence involving the band Boston and the anniversary of Brad Delp's passing, Jack White clarifying comments about Taylor Swift that sent the internet into meltdown mode, and Stephen A. Smith explaining exactly why a presidential run in 2028 would absolutely ruin his bank account.Movie fans also get plenty to chew on as the show talks about a new Rambo prequel, a possible return to Middle-earth with The Lord of the Rings: The Hunt for Gollum, and the latest Corey Feldman drama that… honestly feels very on brand for Corey Feldman.Add in birthdays, ridiculous celebrity trivia, Cameo pricing debates, and the looming arrival of a group of teenagers ready to roast their friend's dad on air, and you've got another perfectly chaotic episode of your favorite comedy podcast.If you like daily humor, pop culture commentary, weird celebrity stories, and a morning show that proudly spirals off the rails, you're in the right place.

Eli Mazour is joined by Juristat's Francesca Cruz and patent attorney Clint Mehall to look at what the examination data actually says about recent USPTO changes. The conversation moves past anecdotes to analyze how new examiner performance appraisal plan (PAP), new Section 101 guidance, and the end of the AFCP program are affecting day-to-day patent prosecution.The guests discuss a new framework for examiner seniority based on "At-Bats"—the total number of applications an examiner has handled—rather than just years at the Office. The data reveals surprising trends in office action consistency and why mid-level examiners might be more difficult than juniors. The discussion also covers the measurable decline in after-final allowances, why practitioners are defaulting to RCEs, and whether new guidance is actually moving the needle on Section 101 rejections in difficult art units.Chapters: 00:00 - Introduction03:00 - What Practitioners are Hearing: An "Incredible Year of Change"04:39 - Examiner Morale and the New Performance Appraisal Plan06:24 - Redefining Seniority: Measuring "At-Bats" vs. Tenure12:07 - Data Reveal: Junior vs. Senior Behavioral Trends15:47 - The "Confidence Gap" and Obviousness Theories18:19 - Art Unit Volatility: Why Individual Stats Matter More Than Averages22:52 - Interviews and AFCP: Addressing the USPTO "Myth-Busters"28:44 - The Shift to RCEs and the Decline of After-Final Allowances34:52 - Section 101 Trends: Has AI Guidance Changed Rejection Rates?44:47 - Final Thoughts: Preparing for Prosecution in 2026Subscribe to the Voice of IP Substack: https://voiceofip.com/
For years, the U.S. Attorney's Office for the Southern District of New York (SDNY) possessed extensive evidence connected to Jeffrey Epstein's sex-trafficking operation but failed to act decisively, allowing the case to languish despite mounting allegations and investigative material. Federal agents had gathered witness statements, victim accounts, travel records, and financial evidence that painted a clear picture of a long-running trafficking enterprise involving underage girls. Yet despite the gravity of the allegations and the scope of the evidence, the SDNY did not bring charges for years, leaving Epstein free to continue operating within elite social and financial circles. Critics argue that this delay represents one of the most glaring failures of federal prosecution in recent memory. In their view, the evidence was not merely suggestive — it was substantial and deeply troubling, raising serious questions about why federal prosecutors waited so long before pursuing a full criminal case.The eventual indictment of Epstein in 2019 only intensified scrutiny of the SDNY's earlier inaction. By that point, victims had spent years fighting to be heard while Epstein moved freely among wealthy and powerful associates. Observers and advocates for the victims have argued that the SDNY's delay allowed critical evidence to grow stale, witnesses to disperse, and the broader network surrounding Epstein to remain unexamined for far too long. The situation fueled suspicions that Epstein's immense wealth and influential connections may have contributed to the reluctance to move forward sooner. Whether the delay stemmed from bureaucratic caution, prosecutorial hesitation, or something more troubling, the outcome was the same: a powerful predator operated for years while federal authorities who possessed significant evidence failed to bring him to justice in a timely manner.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.com
Both morgellons.org and morgellons.com were registered March 14, 2002. The registrant was not Mary Leitao or her husband Edward Leitao (an internist who died suddenly two years later and whose name appears in no subsequent MRF publication, board filing, press release, or congressional testimony). The registrant is listed as “dkornsin” (K-O-R-N-S-I-N), with an associated email address of dkornsin@hotmail.com. No Kornsin appears in Pennsylvania nonprofit records or Pennsylvania public address records from this period.A user named “D. Kornsin” appears on BlackHatWorld, a black hat SEO forum, with a join date of January 2011 — resurfacing a decade later asking about domain resale value. The email cluster associated with the WHOIS data connects to Chinese software distribution infrastructure, specifically the 2345.com ecosystem — a major Chinese tech platform known in malware analysis circles for grey-zone adware distribution behind deliberately obscure registrant contacts. An associated email address, ch3web@hotmail.com, also traces into that infrastructure.The domain was made private in October 2017 — six years after the MRF officially dissolved. Someone was still maintaining it then, and someone is still maintaining it today.The MRF Patient Registry and DissolutionThe MRF dissolution announcement, dated February 15, 2012, stated the organization was no longer active and not accepting registrations or donations. Remaining funds were donated to the Oklahoma State University Foundation to support Morgellons disease research. The dissolution was filed using IRS Form 990-N, the minimum possible instrument, available only when gross receipts fall below $50,000. No program descriptions, no asset disposition schedule, no documentation of what happened to organizational property.The patient registry — containing self-reported onset dates, locations, symptom profiles, occupational information, and geographic clustering data from over 12,000 families across all 50 states and at least 15 countries — has no documented public disposition. Its transfer to OSU, if it occurred, left no public trace.Historical Source Material: Mick West / Morgellons WatchThe episode references a 2007 post from Mick West's Morgellons Watch site with 101 comments, and reads from a post by a commenter identified as “Nissi,” who described receiving 177 viruses from Morgellons-related websites, identified by her husband — the owner of a communications company who had previously been recruited by the FBI. Full coverage of Mick West's role is flagged for a dedicated future episode.Andrew Huff / EcoHealth Alliance ConnectionThe episode references prior season coverage of Andrew Huff's FOIA request and his allegation that Peter Daszak, head of EcoHealth Alliance (the organization involved in gain-of-function research at the Wuhan Institute of Virology), told Huff he had been working with the CIA since 2015. Huff later retracted the FOIA request after reporting organized harassment by the U.S. government.An open records request has been filed with Oklahoma State University (request 26-100) seeking documentation related to research agreements, contracts, MOUs, and CRADAs connected to Morgellons research — including any records related to the patient registry transfer. Response pending.Names and Entities for the RecordMary Leitao, Edward Leitao, dkornsin, dkornsin@hotmail.com, ch3web@hotmail.com, 2345.com, BlackHatWorld, William T.

SCSO releases official autopsy findings in the Charity Beallis case. Her manner of death ruled self-inflicted. Twins Eliana and Maverick — homicide. But the death certificate shows multiple gunshot wounds, and the forensic details explaining the ruling haven't been made public.The evidence supporting Randall Beallis's alibi is substantial: Tesla location data, cell phone records, and home security logs all verify he wasn't at the Bonanza residence on the night of December 2nd. Multiple agencies investigated — FBI, Homeland Security, Secret Service, Arkansas State Police.But Randy Powell, Charity's father, told us directly what he saw at the morgue: wounds to chest and head. Two separate body locations. Cases involving multiple self-inflicted wounds are rare according to forensic research — only 0-6% of cases. The trajectory analysis and wound sequencing that would explain the pathologist's conclusion have not been released.This video examines the SCSO evidence, Charity's documented history in court records, what changed when joint custody was ordered on December 2nd, and why the Sheriff's Office says the investigation is "continuing" after releasing the ruling.Eliana and Maverick Beallis were six years old.Join Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Eric and Eliot welcome Norman Roule, a non-resident senior adviser at the Center for Strategic and International Studies and a thirty-four-year career veteran of the U.S. intelligence community, where he served in the Directorate of Operations as a division chief and chief of station, and for nearly a decade as the national intelligence manager for Iran in the Office of the Director of National Intelligence (ODNI). They discuss Trump's effort to replicate his Venezuela playbook and the search for an Iranian Delcy Rodríguez, the intricacies of the Iranian succession, and the potential for the regular army (ARTESH) to step in and seize leadership of the country. The conversation also covers the IRGC's hold on the system in Iran, the sources of Iran's misreading of the regional situation and of Donald Trump, the failure of Iran's alliances to come to the rescue, and the nature of Iran as an intelligence target.Eliot's Latest in The Atlantic (Gift Link):https://www.theatlantic.com/ideas/2026/03/trump-iran-war-confusion/686259/?gift=KGDC3VdV8jaCufvP3bRsPq02AwLxoJbONMjAocns7uo&utm_source=copy-link&utm_medium=social&utm_campaign=shareShield of the Republic is a Bulwark podcast co-sponsored by the Miller Center of Public Affairs at the University of Virginia.

The Sebastian County Sheriff's Office has released the official autopsy results in the Charity Beallis case. Her manner of death has been ruled self-inflicted. Her six-year-old twins, Eliana and Maverick — homicide.Three months of investigation involving the FBI, Homeland Security, Secret Service, and Arkansas State Police. The alibi evidence for Randall Beallis is verified across multiple independent sources: Tesla location data, cell tower records, and home security system logs all confirm he wasn't at the Bonanza residence that night.But the death certificate says "gunshot wounds" — plural. Randy Powell, Charity's father, told us she had wounds to both chest and head. Two separate locations on the body.The ruling is public. The forensic explanation for how two wounds in separate locations fits that ruling hasn't been released. And the Sheriff's Office says the investigation is "continuing" — raising the question of what's still being investigated if the manner of death has been determined.This episode breaks down the SCSO evidence, Charity's documented history including the 2013 arrest and custody battles, what changed when joint custody was ordered on December 2nd, and the threads that remain unresolved.Eliana and Maverick were six years old.

To the neighbors in his exclusive New Jersey enclave, Dr. Jonathan Nyce was a "gentle giant" — a brilliant molecular biologist on the verge of a billion-dollar medical breakthrough. But behind the 21-room mansion and the 6,000 tulips in the drive, the "perfect" marriage he shared with his wife, Michelle, was a facade built on secrets, financial ruin, and a suffocating need for control.When Michelle's body was discovered in her Land Cruiser at the bottom of a frozen ravine on a cold January morning, it looked like a tragic accident. However, investigators soon found that the math didn't add up.Today's snack: Mackenzies Chocolates from Santa Cruz (thanks Molly!)

During the Office of Inspector General investigation into the death of Jeffrey Epstein at the Metropolitan Correctional Center in August 2019, correctional officer Tova Noel gave an interview describing how the morning unfolded when Epstein was discovered in his cell. According to her account, she and fellow officer Michael Thomas were assigned to monitor the Special Housing Unit overnight. Noel told investigators that when breakfast rounds began that morning, Thomas approached Epstein's cell and noticed something was wrong. She said Thomas called out for assistance and that she moved toward the area, where Epstein was found hanging from a strip of bedding tied to the top bunk. Noel stated that Thomas entered the cell first and attempted to cut the ligature while she retrieved equipment to assist, after which they lowered Epstein to the floor so CPR could begin.However, the OIG investigation was highly critical of Noel's conduct and the credibility of the circumstances she described. Investigators determined that Noel and Thomas had failed to perform the legally required inmate counts and physical security checks for hours during the night Epstein died, leaving him unmonitored in a high-risk suicide watch environment. The report also found that Noel later signed official count sheets falsely indicating that the checks had been completed, despite evidence showing they had not been. Surveillance records and other evidence suggested the officers spent large portions of the shift away from their assigned duties, and investigators concluded that their negligence created the conditions that allowed Epstein to remain unattended long enough to die. As a result, Noel's interview with OIG was viewed less as a clear explanation of events and more as part of a broader record showing severe procedural failures and falsified documentation at the very time Epstein required the highest level of supervision.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:EFTA00117759.pdf

On this week's episode we talk to Naomi Goldstein, who for nearly two decades led the Office of Planning, Research and Evaluation at the Administration for Children and Families (ACF). We discussed the way that the federal government decides what to research and how it gets the job done. And why she thinks the Trump administration's recent decision to decentralize research at ACF is a mistake. Naomi Goldstein was the deputy assistant secretary for planning, research, and evaluation at the Administration for Children and Families. She is currently a nurse at MedStar National Rehabilitation Hospital.
