Haley Stevens has found her groove. She's made herself into a plucky underdog, which is hard because she'd been typecast as the spoiled golden girl — Chuck Schumer's special little lady who was handed everything and had all the money. Mallory McMorrow was fresh, Abdul El-Sayed was exciting, and Stevens looked like she was getting run over. Now her message is: I don't care what they make fun of me for. I'm like you, and I'm looking out for you. It's solid. It's good.El-Sayed has run a very good campaign, but he's had trouble restabilizing since Stevens found her footing. His problem is explaining his progressive message to people who don't automatically buy into it. You need to describe the what before the why. Start with the person who counted on a government check that didn't come, then explain why it happened and where the money went. El-Sayed keeps starting with AIPAC and the quid pro quo because he's still talking to progressives. Progressives understand that language, but everybody else might not.Politics Politics Politics is a reader-supported publication. To receive new posts and support my work, consider becoming a free or paid subscriber.The Stevens campaign wants to make El-Sayed the bully. She keeps pointing out that he makes fun of the way she talks, and she brought up his comment about putting an ogre's head on a spike. That matters because El-Sayed needs the McMorrow women — voters who weren't into Stevens but could be talked into a more progressive way of thinking. He's going to ride and die on being a fighter, including his support for abolishing ICE. That's authentic, but he's more of a blunt instrument than Bernie Sanders or Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez. Stevens looked confident under the lights. El-Sayed didn't look in command. My prediction: Stevens by five.Trump, meanwhile, has asked the Supreme Court to revive parts of his executive order restricting mail voting before the November midterms. A federal judge blocked provisions directing agencies to build state citizenship lists and requiring the Postal Service to send mail ballots only to currently listed voters. I'm not personally for asking states to assemble these lists so close to an election, for the same reason I wasn't for expanding mail voting during COVID. Anytime you're expanding or restricting voting and changing the electorate, you've got to do it with some tender loving care.Trump also met with Benjamin Netanyahu for the first time since the United States and Israel launched their joint air campaign against Iran. Iran was expected to dominate the meeting as Trump decides whether to resume large-scale strikes or give diplomacy more time. There's visible friction: Trump doesn't like Netanyahu publicly raising concerns about activity at Iran's Pickaxe Mountain to pressure him, while Netanyahu wants to preserve military pressure. Their decision could determine whether this pause becomes a negotiating window or merely an intermission. Nobody knows what's happening in Iran. There are only so many ways I can say it.Michigan's attorney general is also reviewing how a false allegation against Pete Buttigieg led authorities to separate him from his four-year-old twins. Officials acted on a vague tip before confirming the caller's identity or credibility, and Michigan State Police later declared the allegation unfounded. Investigators found a Facebook post in which the apparent caller urged people not to vote for Buttigieg and referenced the accusation before contacting authorities. Emergency responses involving children need a hair trigger, but unsupported accusations can also become political intimidation. It's ugly — really, really, really ugly.Chapters00:00:00 - Intro00:03:49 - Michigan00:21:31 - Israel, Iran, and Ukraine00:30:40 - Mayor Pete Swatted00:34:22 - Interview with Howard Mortman01:06:28 - Wrap-up This is a public episode.

Most people believe another Asian financial crisis can't happen. Not like 1997. Asian governments now have enormous foreign-exchange reserves. Their currencies are generally more flexible. Banks are better regulated. Officials supposedly understand contagion, currency mismatches, and the importance of acting quickly.In short, Asia learned its lesson. But what if that is the wrong lesson?Eurodollar University's Money & Macro Analysis----------------------------------------------------------------------------------What if your gold could actually pay you every month… in MORE gold?That's exactly what Monetary Metals does.

Nobody has to push someone off a boat for a death to become a crime. Prosecutors may be about to test that with the Nolan Wells case. Nolan was eighteen, a wide receiver at Southwest Mississippi Community College from Ocean Springs, Mississippi. On the Fourth of July, he and a group of friends took a boat out to Horn Island, an uninhabited barrier island roughly ten miles off the Mississippi coast. He was last seen there around three in the afternoon. His friends left without him. A National Park Service ranger recovered his body two mornings later, off the island's northwestern tip. Officials initially said they believed Nolan drowned and that they didn't suspect foul play, before the autopsy was even complete. That same office has since said investigators are working diligently to determine exactly what occurred, a statement that sits uneasily next to the first one. District Attorney Angel Myers McIlrath has told the family the case will go to a grand jury once the investigation wraps. What twelve jurors do with a death that has never been formally classified, and whether leaving a person behind on an island can amount to a crime on its own, is the question at the center of this one. Attorney Ben Crump says Nolan's friends had his phone after leaving the island, and that messages had been deleted by the time the family got it back. Crump's experts and Jackson County investigators have agreed to examine the device together. The family has also arranged its own independent autopsy in Washington, D.C., separate from the one performed by the Mississippi State Medical Examiner's Office. Neither result has been released. Two autopsies, a missing chunk of texts, and a legal theory nobody has tested yet. Join Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/ Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

A 2023 book collects accounts of shapeshifting strangers, reptilian visitors, and living doubles, arguing the aliens John Carpenter put on screen may have been walking among us all along.EPISODE BLOG PAGE (includes sources): https://weirddarkness.com/TheyLiveREAD or DOWNLOAD the full transcript of this episode: https://weirddarkness.tiny.us/ycktrfu5FEATURED STORIES IN THIS EPISODE: Have you ever felt like something was off about someone you met? What if the truth was more bizarre than you could imagine - that aliens walk secretly among us, perfectly disguised? (Mimic In The Mirror) *** The short story “Eight O'Clock In The Morning” by Ray Nelson – the inspiration for the movie “They Live!” *** Left-handedness: once a mark of the devil, now a unique trait celebrated across the globe. From the Salem Witch Trials to modern-day challenges with spiral notebooks, left-handers have been forced to navigate a world designed for righties, despite the historical stigmas, surprising advantages, and the evolving recognition of left-handers in combat, culture, and commerce. (Left-Handers Are In League With The Devil) *** In the shadow of Switzerland's majestic Eiger mountain, 29-year-old Aidan Roche vanished without a trace during a solo hiking trip. Despite an unlocked camper-van and one last eerie messages sent from the trail, his disappearance remained shrouded in mystery. Months later, a grim discovery brought more questions than answers. (The Disappearance of Aidan Roche) *** In the summer of 1948, a series of inexplicable fires ravaged the Willey farm near Macomb, Illinois, destroying the family's home and barns. Despite the efforts of local authorities and the U.S. Air Force, no logical explanation could be found for the hundreds of mysterious blazes that seemed to start spontaneously. At the center of this baffling case was 13-year-old Wanet McNeil, whose alleged confession to arson left many unconvinced. Was Wanet truly responsible? Could she have been starting the fires with her mind? (The Macomb Firestarter) *** In 1991, 63-year-old Vasile Gorgos left his home in Romania to visit a cattle market and never returned, leaving his family to believe he had met a tragic fate. But 30 years later, Vasile shocked everyone when he mysteriously reappeared, wearing the same clothes as the day he vanished and carrying an unused train ticket from 1991 in his pocket. With no memory of where he'd been for three decades, Vasile's strange case has left people wondering if his disappearance could be tied to supernatural phenomena like portals, alien abduction, or shifts in time and space itself.

Copyright ©2026, Weird Darkness.Originally aired: April 30, 2024In this episode of Weird Darkness, listeners move through alien impostors, the long history of left-handed stigma, a hiker who vanished in the Swiss Alps, a farm besieged by fires no one could explain, and a Romanian cattle trader who came home after thirty years.It opens with the mimics. Ray Nelson's 1963 story "Eight O'Clock in the Morning" — the basis for John Carpenter's 1988 film "They Live" — imagined reptilian aliens ruling Earth from behind human faces, and the 2023 book "Mimics: The Others Among Us" argues that scenario may not be fiction. The book collects accounts like that of Brenda Butler, co-author of a book on the Rendlesham Forest UFO incident, who in 1984 met a tall, blue-eyed man calling himself David Daniels and claiming to be from the Pleiades star cluster, then watched his skin turn scaly and reptilian before he shifted back to human. It recounts author Chris Holly's memory of a strikingly similar white-haired, blue-eyed family she later connected to the extraterrestrial "Tall Whites," alongside cases of living ghosts, doppelgangers, and a 1970s poltergeist blamed on a mimic wearing a teenage girl's face.From there the episode traces why left-handedness was treated as sinister for centuries. During the Salem Witch Trials, favoring the left hand could bring an accusation of witchcraft, and as late as the 1970s schools still forced left-handed children to write with their right. The Book of Matthew places the righteous on the right and the cursed on the left, the Zulu scalded children's left hands to stop their use, and communities along the Niger River tied left-handed cooking to witchcraft — while the ancient Celts prized left-handed warriors, Rome read left-side omens as favorable, and the Inca chief Lloque Yupanqui was admired for his left-handedness. The stigma softened by the late 1960s, when William Gruby opened Anything Left-Handed, Ltd. to sell scissors, kitchen tools, and watches built for lefties.Next comes the disappearance of Aidan Roche, a 29-year-old chemical engineer from Middlesbrough who vanished on June 22nd, 2023, while hiking the Eiger Trail in Switzerland's Bernese Oberland. His campervan sat unlocked and abandoned near the trailhead with everything inside intact, and his final messages placed him two hours from Grindelwald in clear weather on a well-traveled path. Swiss police, mountain rescue teams, dogs, and drones searched for five days, and his brothers Connor and Niall raised over £30,000 for helicopter surveillance and screen advertisements in twenty-four locations, yet found nothing until September 24th, 2023, when Aidan's body was discovered near the trail with the cause of death still unreleased.The episode then settles on the Willey farm outside Macomb, Illinois, where hundreds of fires broke out in the summer of 1948. They started on August 7th as small brown spots that appeared on the living room wallpaper, spread, smoldered, and burst into flame — more than 200 of them in one week, igniting curtains, an ironing board, and newspapers sealed inside a closed cupboard, often erupting on walls and ceilings while witnesses watched. The blazes consumed the farmhouse on August 14th and both barns soon after, drew over 1,000 spectators on August 22nd, and even brought in the U.S. Air Force, which floated directed radiation from the Russians as a possible cause. Officials declared the case solved on August 30th by pinning it on 13-year-old Wanet McNeil, who confessed to using kitchen matches after hours of questioning despite never being seen holding any; psychiatrist Dr. Sophie Schroeder found her mentally normal, researcher Vincent Gaddis called it poltergeist activity, and Fire Chief Fred Wilson retired still convinced something unexplainable had happened.The episode closes with Vasile Gorgos, a 63-year-old cattle trader from Bacău, Romania, who left for a market in 1991 and disappeared for three decades. His wife reported him missing, an extensive police search turned up no trace, and his family eventually held a ceremony and accepted that he was dead. On a Sunday afternoon in August 2021, a car pulled up outside his old house and drove off before anyone could read the plate, leaving behind a 93-year-old Vasile in the same clothes he had worn in 1991, carrying an unused train ticket from that year and an old identity card listing an address in another part of Romania.

The New Yorker staff writer David D. Kirkpatrick joins Tyler Foggatt to discuss the Biden Administration's failure to restrain Israel during its military campaign in Gaza. They talk about what Kirkpatrick has learned from former senior members of Biden's national-security team—some of whom spoke on the record about key decisions during the conflict for the first time—and how previously undisclosed documents and revelations point to the Administration's failure to rein in the Israeli Prime Minister, Benjamin Netanyahu, and to reduce Palestinian civilian casualties. They also explore why the former officials are now speaking candidly about their missteps, and whether the Administration's approach to Israel helped shape the conditions that led to the current war with Iran.

The Algerian government has said that six people have died in wildfires in several provinces in recent days, as a deadly heatwave ravages the country. Officials have also instructed provincial governors to carry out comprehensive assessments of the damage to help guide future compensation for affected communities. The fires come as several Mediterranean countries, including France and Italy, are struggling with severe wildfires driven by extreme summer temperatures. Since the beginning of July, civil defence teams have responded to nearly 1,500 wildfires nationwide, more than double the number reported during the previous year.

An attack outside a federal building in Manhattan is raising fresh alarms about political violence in America. Officials say the suspect, who has a history of anti-ICE activity, detonated an incendiary device on Monday. The attack is just the latest example in a growing wave of political violence in recent years. FOX News contributor and retired FBI supervisory special agent James Gagliano breaks down what's driving this spike—and what can be done to curb it. As Britain welcomes its seventh prime minister in just ten years, the ascension of self-styled socialist Andy Burnham marks a dramatic leftward pivot for the country's leadership. The former mayor of Greater Manchester now faces the monumental task of delivering on ambitious nationalization plans while navigating a precarious economy, tax policy debates, and incoming diplomatic pressure from President Trump over energy and military base access. Fox News Senior Correspondent and Searching for Heroes podcast host Benjamin Hall joins to discuss Burnham's agenda, the political landmines awaiting his government, and what this changing of the guard means for the future of U.K.-U.S. relations.

An eighteen-year-old college athlete named Nolan Wells took a boat to Horn Island on the Fourth of July with friends from Ocean Springs, Mississippi. Every one of those friends made it back to the mainland. He was found in the water off the island two mornings later by a National Park Service ranger.The mail on this case has almost nothing to do with the forensic questions dominating national coverage. It's about a decision. Somebody started an engine. Somebody untied a line. Somebody looked at an empty seat and went home anyway.Tony Brueski reads those messages and works through what makes them so hard to shake — starting with what Horn Island actually is. Not a resort island. Not a town. An undeveloped barrier island roughly ten miles offshore with no shelter, no fresh water, and no dependable way to reach anybody. Beautiful in daylight. Completely unforgiving after dark.The questions in this mailbag come down to what the friends have said and what they've avoided saying. Whether anyone thought he was on a different boat, and whether anyone checked. How a person survives a night out there with nothing.Per the Jackson County Sheriff's Office, a friend contacted the Coast Guard late that night and Nolan's mother, Christine Wonsley, contacted the sheriff's office shortly afterward. Officials have said they believe he drowned and do not suspect foul play, while also saying the work of determining exactly what happened continues.Cause and manner of death have not been released. Ben Crump is investigating independently for the family. The district attorney has said a grand jury will see it.Everything in this case starts on that island.END_LINKS:Join Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/ Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Everybody arguing about the Nolan Wells case online is arguing about the wrong hour. Not the autopsy. Not the phone. The boat ride home — the moment a group of eighteen-year-olds untied from a barrier island and left one of their own behind on it.Horn Island sits about ten miles off Ocean Springs, Mississippi. The National Park Service keeps it undeveloped. There is no shelter out there, no drinking water, no store, no cell tower. For one day a year it's the best party on the coast. Every other hour of the year it's empty, and after dark on the Fourth it goes right back to empty.Nolan Wells was a college wide receiver, eighteen years old, out there with kids he grew up with. They came home. He was found in the water two days later by a National Park Service ranger, off the island's northwestern tip.Tony reads the mailbag straight. Nobody wrote in asking about tide charts. They wrote in asking how you get on a boat and look at an empty seat and pull away from the dock. They wrote in asking whether anybody counted. They wrote in asking what that island offers a person who's still on it at midnight, alone, with no way to call anyone.The sheriff's office has said a friend reached the Coast Guard that night and that Nolan's mother called the sheriff's office soon after. Officials have said they believe he drowned while simultaneously insisting the work to determine what actually occurred is ongoing.No cause of death has been released. Ben Crump is investigating for the family. A grand jury is coming.The island first. Then everything else.END_LINKS:Join Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/ Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

There are two examinations of Nolan Wells and nobody outside a very small circle knows what either one says. The Mississippi State Medical Examiner's Office handled the first. The family's legal team arranged the second, sending his body to Washington, D.C.Live, Tony Brueski works through the mailbag on that split — and the biggest question is the collision nobody wants to name out loud. If those two examinations don't match, what happens next? Whose science gets believed? Who decides?Neither result has been released. Cause and manner of death for the eighteen-year-old Ocean Springs athlete remain undetermined. Attorney Ben Crump indicated early on that the independent results would come quickly, and later said he hoped to share them soon.Underneath it all is the credibility problem. Officials said they believed Nolan drowned and did not suspect foul play at a point when no completed autopsy existed. The same sheriff's office has stressed that investigators are working diligently to determine exactly what occurred. Those two positions have been sitting side by side for weeks.There's the phone, too — carried off the island by his friends, according to Crump, and returned to the family with messages deleted, also according to Crump. His experts and county investigators agreed to a mutual inspection of the device.District Attorney Angel Myers McIlrath has told the Wells family the case will be presented to a grand jury once the investigation wraps.

In this episode we dive into the United States' beef with Canada and check in on the Tropical storm heading toward the Gulf Coast. And we explore new polling about who the Democrats should send up as a presidential candidate next election.

An attack outside a federal building in Manhattan is raising fresh alarms about political violence in America. Officials say the suspect, who has a history of anti-ICE activity, detonated an incendiary device on Monday. The attack is just the latest example in a growing wave of political violence in recent years. FOX News contributor and retired FBI supervisory special agent James Gagliano breaks down what's driving this spike—and what can be done to curb it. As Britain welcomes its seventh prime minister in just ten years, the ascension of self-styled socialist Andy Burnham marks a dramatic leftward pivot for the country's leadership. The former mayor of Greater Manchester now faces the monumental task of delivering on ambitious nationalization plans while navigating a precarious economy, tax policy debates, and incoming diplomatic pressure from President Trump over energy and military base access. Fox News Senior Correspondent and Searching for Heroes podcast host Benjamin Hall joins to discuss Burnham's agenda, the political landmines awaiting his government, and what this changing of the guard means for the future of U.K.-U.S. relations.

A former senior Foreign Office official told lawmakers that he was instructed to move ahead with appointing Peter Mandelson despite raising concerns during the vetting process, including issues connected to Mandelson's associations and the potential political fallout. According to his testimony, he was effectively told to “get on with it,” signaling that the decision had already been made at higher levels and that standard caution around security clearance and reputational risk was being overridden.The disclosure has fueled criticism that the appointment process was rushed and that proper scrutiny was sidelined in favor of political priorities. Officials acknowledged that red flags existed but indicated there was little willingness to delay or reconsider the decision, even with Epstein-related concerns lingering in the background. The episode has since raised broader questions about how seriously vetting procedures are taken when they conflict with political objectives, and whether accountability mechanisms within the government were bypassed.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:Former foreign office chief was told to ‘get on' with appointing Mandelson despite his worries over links with Epstein | LBCBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-epstein-chronicles--5003294/support.

One sheriff declared no foul play before the investigation started. One county had complaints in hand for five years and never found the children. Defense attorney and former prosecutor Eric Faddis breaks down the Nolan Wells death investigation and the Siders sixteen-kids case together — because the question connecting both cases is the same: what happens when the system fails first and investigates second?On Nolan Wells: what the premature no-foul-play call did to the case trajectory, the contradictions between the friends' statements and the young woman's account, the allegedly deleted messages, the friend who appeared on national television during the active investigation, and the grand jury the DA agreed to for a death publicly called a drowning. On the Siders case: the gag order silencing officials who called it pure evil, the grandfather released because the county couldn't cover his medical costs, the truancy complaints from 2021 that were never served, and Elizabeth Siders — married off at fifteen, mother of all sixteen, facing sixteen felony counts while her own attorney argues she is a victim.Two cases. One conversation. Every failure examined by a former prosecutor.

A judge in Vinton County just signed a gag order that prevents the attorney general's office, the county prosecutor, and the sheriff from making any public statement about the case of sixteen children found in a Hamden, Ohio, home. The day before the order was signed, Ohio approved one million dollars in emergency funding to care for those same children.The order was filed by the defense attorney for Gary Siders Junior, whose unrelated indecent exposure warrant is the only reason deputies ever entered that house. Officials had described what they found — children crammed into a twelve-by-twelve-foot room, unable to communicate, living in conditions compared to livestock pens. The defense argued the language would poison the jury pool. The judge agreed.Truancy records from 2021 show Gallia County knew six Siders children had vanished from school. The cases were closed when the family couldn't be served. Gary Senior was released because the county couldn't afford his medical bills — a fact disclosed at a press conference that would now be prohibited under the gag order. The people who found those children and spoke publicly about the failures that let it happen are the same people who can no longer tell you anything about it.Join Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/ Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

The attorney general called it pure evil. The sheriff said livestock lived better. A judge just ordered both of them — along with the prosecutor, the clerk, and all defense counsel — to stop talking about the Siders case publicly.The gag order was requested by Gary Siders Junior's attorney after officials described what they found inside a Hamden, Ohio, home: sixteen children in a twelve-by-twelve-foot room, covered in filth, some barely able to speak. The stated purpose is protecting the jury pool in a county of about twelve thousand people. The practical effect is shutting down the public accountability conversation at the exact moment Ohio legislators started demanding answers.Court records from 2021 show Gallia County knew six Siders children had disappeared from school — and closed the file when the family couldn't be found. Gary Senior walked free on a recognizance bond because the county couldn't afford to hold him. Ohio approved a million dollars in emergency foster care funding. Every one of these facts was disclosed at a public press conference. Under the gag order, those press conferences cannot happen again. The officials who found those children are now the ones ordered to be quiet. The systems that never went looking have not been asked to say a word.Join Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/ Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

The sheriff told the country no foul play was suspected before anyone investigated Nolan Wells' death. A county in Ohio had truancy complaints on children five years before sixteen of them were discovered in a room smaller than a jail cell. Two cases, two states, and the same question at the center of both: did the people responsible for protecting these families fail before anyone else had a chance to act? Defense attorney and former prosecutor Eric Faddis covers both cases in one extended live conversation.The Nolan Wells segments cover the premature call, the friends' contradictory statements, the allegedly deleted messages, the friend who went public during the investigation, and the DA's decision to present to a grand jury for what was called a drowning. The Siders segments cover the gag order, the grandfather who walked free because of medical costs, the charges and whether child endangerment captures what investigators found, and the question that dominates everything: Elizabeth Siders was married at fifteen, is the biological mother of all sixteen children, faces sixteen felony counts, and her own attorney says she may be a victim of this family.Faddis brings a former prosecutor's perspective to every angle.

Canada's housing market is entering another pivotal phase as slowing construction, rising financial stress, and government intervention increasingly shape the future of real estate. While the Bank of Canada has provided borrowers with welcome stability by holding interest rates steady for a sixth consecutive meeting, mounting evidence suggests the country's housing shortage could worsen before it improves. Housing starts are falling sharply, residential building permits continue to decline, and developers across Canada are struggling to secure financing, even for fully approved projects.Two years after British Columbia introduced mandatory municipal housing targets, the results are mixed. Several municipalities have exceeded their provincial obligations, while others remain significantly behind schedule. West Vancouver has completed just 37% of its required housing, raising the possibility that the Province could eventually exercise its authority to override local zoning decisions and approve developments directly. Such intervention would represent one of the most significant shifts in municipal planning authority in decades.Canada's lending environment is showing signs of greater stability, with the Bank of Canada maintaining its policy rate at 2.25%. Economic growth has begun to recover following a sluggish period, giving buyers and sellers more confidence around borrowing costs. However, inflation remains elevated, fuelled largely by food and energy prices, leaving policymakers cautious. Most economists expect rates to remain unchanged for the remainder of the year, although the possibility of another increase has not been ruled out should inflation accelerate again.Financial pressures within the development industry continue to intensify. Another major condominium project, this time a 310-unit waterfront development in Burlington, Ontario, has entered receivership after the developer failed to secure construction financing. The project had approvals, a desirable location, and planned housing supply, yet financing challenges ultimately brought construction to a halt. Similar stories are becoming increasingly common as higher interest rates, cautious lenders, and elevated construction costs reshape Canada's development landscape.Vancouver is simultaneously introducing sweeping changes to how new development will be funded. The City's proposed Amenity Cost Charge program replaces years of negotiated community contributions with standardized fees designed to create greater transparency and predictability. Officials estimate the program will generate hundreds of millions of dollars for future community amenities, although questions remain about whether additional development costs will further challenge an industry already grappling with shrinking margins and rising insolvencies.Technology is also beginning to transform housing approvals. Burnaby has become one of the first municipalities in Canada to deploy artificial intelligence to review residential building plans before permit submission. By automatically checking projects against zoning regulations, the City hopes to significantly reduce approval timelines and accelerate housing construction without replacing human plan reviewers. If successful, the initiative could become a model adopted across Metro Vancouver.Mortgage renewals are entering their most financially challenging period as homeowners who secured historically low rates during 2021 and 2022 begin refinancing at substantially higher borrowing costs. Monthly mortgage payments are increasing by roughly 24% for many households, contributing to rising consumer insolvencies and the highest level of homeowner bankruptcies seen in a decade. At the same time, Canada's total liabilities associated with insolvency filings have more than doubled over the past ten years, highlighting growing financial strain among households.Meanwhile, the pipeline of future housing continues to weaken. Residential building permits and housing starts have both posted significant year-over-year declines, reflecting reduced developer confidence and fewer new projects entering construction. Detached home construction in British Columbia has fallen to a fraction of historical levels, while asking rents continue to decline as record numbers of purpose-built rental units enter the market amid slowing population growth. Together, these trends illustrate a housing market undergoing significant structural change, with affordability gradually improving for some buyers even as long-term supply concerns continue to mount.Metro Vancouver's market remains subdued, with sales activity tracking below last year's already historically weak levels and home prices continuing to soften. Despite improving economic stability, the combination of constrained affordability, cautious buyers, and slowing development suggests Canada's housing market remains in a period of transition—one that will likely shape real estate conditions for years to come._________________________________ Contact Us To Book Your Private Consultation:

Jen Psaki talks with Michael Feinberg, former assistant special agent in charge with the Federal Bureau of Investigation, Ken Dilanian, MS NOW justice and intelligence correspondent, and her fellow MS NOW host Chris Hayes about the facts and context behind Donald Trump's criticisms of U.S. election security.  David Rohde, MS NOW senior national security reporter, talks with Jen Psaki about the former federal officials he is in contact with who recognize many of the documents Donald Trump is releasing, and are critical of Trump for excluding information and context that doesn't fit the narrative he is trying to construct about flaws in the U.S. election system. Senator Raphael Warnock calls Donald Trump a "desperate man" and a "failed president," and points out that while Trump puts on a performance to undermine confidence in the U.S. election system, Americans are struggling with the challenges of life in his economy. Warnock says he knows there are Republicans who realize Donald Trump isn't telling the truth, and calls on them to see past partisanship and speak out against Trump in the name of patriotism.  To listen to this show and other MS podcasts without ads, sign up for MS NOW Premium on Apple Podcasts.

Retail Beef Prices Continue To Climb According to the latest USDA data, the retail beef price composite reached a new all-time record in June, averaging $9.35 per pound. That's up 14 cents from May and marks the highest monthly average ever recorded. Several popular cuts saw noticeable price increases, including ground chuck, stew beef, round roast, sirloin steak, and uncooked beef roasts. Round roast posted one of the biggest jumps, climbing 35 cents a pound during the month. The only major cut to see a price decline was chuck roast, which slipped 6 cents to $9.55 per pound. Despite record-high prices, consumer demand for beef has remained remarkably strong. USDA Meat Forecast For 2027 The USDA is forecasting even less beef production over the next two years as America's cattle herd remains historically tight. In its latest World Agricultural Supply and Demand Estimates report, USDA lowered its 2026 beef production forecast by 150 million pounds and trimmed another 185 million pounds from its 2027 outlook. Officials say fewer cattle being marketed and lighter carcass weights are behind the reductions. Meanwhile, chicken production is headed in the opposite direction. USDA increased its forecast for both this year and next, saying poultry producers are expanding because of strong profit margins. Pork production was adjusted only slightly lower, while turkey production saw little change overall. Despite the shifts among species, total U.S. meat production is expected to remain nearly unchanged over the next two years.

President Trump announced on Thursday night the release of previously classified U.S. intelligence community assessments show the mass compromise of U.S. voter data by the Chinese Communist Party. The White House released those documents covering five major areas of concern. One area of concern that President Trump raised there was the acquisition by the Chinese regime of 220 million U.S. voter files, which includes the names, the addresses, the phone numbers, party preferences, and other registration-relevant data. President Trump describing that as the largest election data compromise in history.Officials in several U.S. cities are urging people to stay indoors as smoke from hundreds of wildfires in Canada continues to blanket the U.S. from the upper midwest to the northeast. Detroit, Minneapolis and Chicago on Thursday ranking among the world's most polluted major cities because of the smoke. Forecasters say the thickest smoke is expected through Saturday, with gradual improvement possible by the end of the weekend if the wind shifts and rain arrives.U.S. forces have carried out a sixth consecutive night of strikes targeting Iranian military sites, including air defense systems, logistics infrastructure and maritime capabilities.

In the wake of a deadly stabbing and then an assault on the Boise Greenbelt, city officials are sitting down for a conversation about public safety and what the Boise Police Department is doing to protect Greenbelt users.

How do you combat something that you feel is bad for society? We dream up a lot of ways to do that, and sometimes it works better than it was ever intended. Officials in Anchorage, Alaska started levying a 5% tax on cannabis products. Officials announced recently a $462,000 budget shortfall due to residents buying less weed. Often times, these things are referred to as “sin taxes,” they are meant to discourage harmful behavior. I think Anchorage has discovered that it does work. What “sin challenges” are prevalent today and what could we do to help discourage them? It would be a great joy to be surprised at how effective we could be.

77 members of Columbia-based Missouri Task Force One (MO-TF1) just returned from a deployment to historic flooding in southeast Missouri. Boone County Fire Protection District chief Doug Westhoff, assistant chief Chuck Doss and MO-TF1 program manager Jake Heller joined hosts Randy Tobler and Stephanie Bell live this morning on 939 the Eagle's "Wake Up Missouri." They had to end the interview early because they just learned they are being deployed to flooded Texas:

A massive water main break flooded parts of West Hollywood early Thursday morning after a 36-inch LADWP trunk line installed in 1916 ruptured near Sunset Boulevard and Holloway Drive.

The questions surrounding Mitch McConnell's health refuse to go away. On today's episode of The Rush Hour, we break down the latest "proof of life" photo released by McConnell's team, why critics say a simple photograph isn't enough, and the growing calls for a video appearance to put the rumors to rest. Is the public demanding too much transparency from elected officials, or has the lack of updates fueled the speculation? We unpack the latest developments and why this story has taken over political social media. Then we turn to the aftermath of Senator Lindsey Graham's sudden death and the growing mystery surrounding the FBI's presence at his home. Officials say federal agents are assisting local authorities as part of the investigation, but that hasn't stopped an avalanche of questions and conspiracy theories online. We separate confirmed facts from internet speculation, discuss what investigators have actually said so far, and examine why these two stories have become the center of a national debate over transparency, trust, and political rumor. It's all coming up on this morning's episode of The Rush Hour.

It's Wednesday, July 15th, A.D. 2026. This is The Worldview in 5 Minutes heard on 140 radio stations and at www.TheWorldview.com. I'm Adam McManus. (Adam@TheWorldview.com) By Jonathan Clark and Adam McManus Pakistani Christians targeted in absurd blasphemy cases Most blasphemy cases in Pakistan in recent years were fabricated. Officials admitted this to a parliamentary committee last week. Christians were among the people targeted in the hundreds of fabricated cases.  The country's blasphemy law criminalizes insulting Islam. People often use the law to target religious minorities like Christians. Just last week, a Pakistani court acquitted a Christian man in this kind of case. Thirty-seven-year-old Dennis Albert had spent two years in prison over false accusations.  In Matthew 5:11-12, Jesus said, “Blessed are you when they revile and persecute you, and say all kinds of evil against you falsely for My sake. Rejoice and be exceedingly glad, for great is your reward in Heaven, for so they persecuted the prophets who were before you.” British island legalizing assisted suicide The British Channel Island of Jersey is legalizing assisted suicide.  The self-governing island is under the British Crown. Jersey received Royal Assent for its so-called “Assisted Dying Law” last week. Once the law takes effect, the territory will be the first place in the British Isles to legalize such killing. Other jurisdictions in the British Isles are also trying to legalize assisted suicide. These include the Isle of Man as well as England and Wales.  Arkansas: Best state for religious liberty; New York is the worst First Liberty released its 2026 Religious Liberty in the States report. The index ranks states in America based on how well they protect religious freedom.  Only Arkansas and Tennessee received excellent scores on the index. New York and Vermont scored the worst. The majority of states scored below 50 percent on the index.  Arkansas' Republican Governor Sarah Huckabee Sanders spoke at a press conference after her state won the highest score on the index. Listen. SANDERS: “Jesus commands us to live out our faith boldly. The Constitution protects our rights to do so. In this administration, we don't just believe that Jesus is our living hope. We will always stand up for the rights of Arkansans who believe the same. “I want to thank First Liberty for recognizing Arkansas's work and for honoring us with this ranking. It's something we are very proud of and we will continue to make sure we stay number one.” Michigan pro-life groups will not be compelled to hire pro-aborts A federal judge ruled in favor of pro-life groups in Michigan last week.  A state law would require pro-life organizations to hire pro-abortion employees. Right to Life of Michigan and Pregnancy Resource Center challenged this law in court. The recent ruling blocks Michigan from enforcing the law.  Amber Roseboom, president of Right to Life of Michigan, said, “The court's decision is a welcome reprieve and reaffirms our fundamental right to hire employees who agree with our life-affirming mission.” New law will make housing more affordable The 21st Century Road to Housing Act became law in the United States. last Saturday.  The bipartisan bill is an attempt to make housing more affordable for Americans. White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt described the law on X. She said, “This bipartisan bill includes policies long championed by the President. It cuts unnecessary red tape, helps increase housing supply, and limits the ability of large institutional investors to purchase single-family homes.” Median home price: $440,600 In related news, home prices continued to rise last month. A report from the National Association of Realtors found that the median sales price of an existing home reached $440,600 in June. That's the highest on record.  Lawrence Yun with the National Association of Realtors noted, “Affordability is better than a year ago because wage growth is outpacing home price growth. However, progress on long-term housing affordability could be hampered if inventory growth continues to stall.” People who experienced heartache more likely to turn to Bible Last week, the American Bible Society released the fourth chapter of its “State of the Bible: USA 2026” report.  The survey found that people who experienced a negative life event in the past year were significantly more likely to be Bible users than those who had not experienced that challenge. Such challenges included divorce, natural disaster, life-threatening illness or injury, death of a close friend or family member, and unemployment. The report noted, “Amidst hardships, those who regularly engage with Scripture maintain significantly higher flourishing scores.” In John 16:33, Jesus said, “These things I have spoken to you, that in Me you may have peace. In the world, you will have tribulation; but be of good cheer, I have overcome the world.” Worldview listeners weigh in from Kansas, Washington, and Indiana Susan Tarwater in Hoyt, Kansas, wrote me and said, “I do not watch television. So, I depend on The Worldview as a shortened version of important news I need to hear. Especially news that a Christian needs to be aware of without all the glitter.” Tom Lister in Spokane, Washington wrote me to say, “Adam, I listen to your broadcast every weekday morning.

Canton City Council approves climate action plan What once seemed like the distant effects of climate change are becoming part of everyday life. Communities across the country are experiencing more prolonged extreme heat, heavier rainfall, stronger storms, droughts and unusual weather patterns. In response, local governments are looking for ways to adapt while reducing their environmental impact. Wednesday on the "Sound of Ideas," we'll turn to Canton, where city leaders have approved a new climate action plan focused on cutting greenhouse gas emissions through changes to municipal buildings, transportation and other city operations.
