Once Federal Reserve policymakers start making total sense, that's when you know. Officials are seeing the data the same way(s) we are, meaning a mess in jobs combined with an absence of any sign for tariff inflation. A big one came this week with a leading voice voicing caution and a growing possibility for that September fifty.

On Thursday, Adm. Daryl Caudle said the United States is boosting its maritime force off Venezuela, with more vessels expected next week following recent confirmations of naval deployments.Policy drivers include President Donald Trump's focus on fentanyl, aiming to counter Latin American drug cartels linked to illicit drug flows into U.S. communities.President Nicolás Maduro responded by urging Venezuelans to join a volunteer militia, while the ruling party claims membership exceeds 4.5 million despite critics calling this an overcount.Officials repudiated U.S. accusations and appealed on Tuesday, with Maduro saying over 90% of Venezuelans reject the U.S. `announcements and threats` and calling for militia enlistment, while Samuel Moncada urged António Guterres to halt `all its hostile actions and threats` and Maduro denied drug-trafficking claims.Three amphibious assault ships carrying more than 4,000 sailors and Marines are due next week, but Christopher Sabatini, research fellow at Chatham House, says it's to `make as much noise as possible`; opposition leader Maria Corina Machado adds, `The time has come for change`.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/policy-and-rights--3339563/support.
This week, Amtrak introduced its brand new Acela trains to the Northeast Corridor, running inaugural trips between Boston and Washington.

Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard says she uncovered multiple "burn bags" in random safes in back offices. Wiggins America is talking about it. Plus, Pearl Jam, US debt and racoons.
On Thursday's Mark Levin Show, the United States is one of the most religious countries in the world. We have the freedom to practice any belief we would like, thanks to the Declaration of Independence. American society distinguishes between faith's role in personal life, community, and government, recognizing it as a moral and psychological foundation that influences behavior and promotes civility. Christianity, while the majority faith, does not seek governmental control, allowing faith and reason to coexist and enrich personal and societal development. The Democrats want the opposite, this is why they are losing more support now than ever. In addition, the probe into John Bolton escalated during the Biden administration when U.S. intelligence acquired foreign espionage data indicating he improperly handled classified information. Officials say the case had already progressed independently and reflects a broader inquiry into national security practices. The left is claiming that this investigation is just a political attack, which is rediculous and not surprising. Also, Gov. Gavin Newsom is not the best Governor this country has ever had. California used to be a great state, but the left ran it down and destroyed its economy, the safety, and the ideology of the people with left-wing garbage. Lastly, David Bozell mentions about a poll that 99% of the American people are tired of crime in big cities, especially the blue cities. Bozell also discusses the attack on the Judeo-Christian communities and how the Minneapolis shooting and many other cases are getting out of hand. Learn more about your ad choices.

Fallout at CDC after director ousted and other top officials resign
Today's Headlines: Newly confirmed CDC director, Susan Monarez, was “officially removed” by HHS Secretary RFK Jr.—even though she insisted only the president can fire her, making The CDC mess even messier. Meanwhile, RFK Jr's ally Jim O'Neill has been tapped as acting director, prompting dozens of CDC staff in Atlanta to walk out in protest. Over at the Surface Transportation Board, Trump is trying to oust a Democratic member just as the board weighs a huge merger between Norfolk Southern and Union Pacific that could essentially create one mega-railroad controlling freight across the U.S. At the same time, Trump is also closing the “de minimis” loophole, meaning imported packages under $800 will now get slapped with tariffs ranging from 10–50%—and several countries, including Japan, Germany, and Mexico, say they'll stop sending packages here altogether. In Minneapolis, police gave more details about the horrific school shooting that killed two children and injured 18 others. Officials say the gunman plastered his weapons with over 100 hate slogans and had been openly posting about his plans for weeks, though law enforcement somehow missed it. And in DC, the infamous “sandwich thrower” who hurled lunch at a federal agent during Trump's new troop patrols has been charged only with a misdemeanor after prosecutors couldn't get a felony indictment. Truly, the first time a ham sandwich wasn't indicted.

Fallout at CDC after director ousted and other top officials resign
Experienced Child Abuser: Why the System Freed Jake Haro Before Baby Emmanuel's Death The disappearance and presumed murder of 7-month-old Emmanuel Haro has shocked California—and the entire country. What began as a frantic report of a kidnapping in a Big 5 parking lot quickly unraveled into something much darker: a staged story, a dead infant, and two parents now sitting in jail charged with first-degree murder. On today's episode, we break down the chilling timeline of what happened to baby Emmanuel, why investigators never believed the parents' story, and how prosecutors say the infant suffered months of abuse before his death. But this case isn't just about two parents facing murder charges. It's about the system that allowed it to happen. Emmanuel's father, Jake Haro, wasn't a man with a clean slate. He was a convicted child abuser, already guilty of nearly killing another baby in 2018—a crime that left his daughter permanently disabled. Despite that, a judge let him walk with probation. No prison. No long-term oversight. And when Jake later violated probation with a firearm offense, the case still dragged on, leaving him free to live in a home with children. Officials are now openly calling this tragedy preventable. Prosecutors and sheriffs alike are criticizing the judge's decision, saying Emmanuel's death should never have been possible. District Attorney Mike Hestrin didn't mince words: “If that judge had done his job, Emmanuel would be alive today.” This is more than a true crime story. It's a devastating reminder of how broken our protective systems can be. It's about what happens when red flags are ignored, when probation fails, when courts give second chances to people who should never have them. Join us as we unpack every detail—the fake kidnapping, the father's disturbing past, the mother's silence, the timeline of missed warnings, and the outcry that continues as the search for Emmanuel's remains goes on.

A building in the heart of Downtown Louisville could be up for a revamp, which we chat about on this week's Access Louisville podcast.LBF Senior Reporter Joel Stinnett is on the show to share his latest reporting on the Kentucky Home Life Building at 239 S. 5th Street. He notes that the Mississippi-based Thrash Group — plus an unnamed local partner — are planning to convert the building into a mixed-use development with residential units, a hotel and first floor retail, according to multiple sources with knowledge of the project. There are some legal hurdles to clear first, however.The Thrash Group has submitted an application to Mayor Craig Greenberg's Downtown Louisville Building Conversion Program to help fund the project, Louisville Metro Government Press Secretary Kevin Trager confirmed. The project is one of four finalists still being considered for funds.Though ornate, the building has not been with out its difficulties.Earlier this year, police converged on the vacant 20-story structure, which is across the street from Louisville Metro Hall, after intruders allegedly cut a gas line while trying to steal copper wire, as WDRB News reported. WDRB is Business First's newsgathering partner. Officials told WDRB that the inside of the building is covered with trash, debris, glass, scraps of copper and various discarded tools strewn everywhere. That's just the top of the show. We also discuss a building in the Highlands that formerly housed Bakersfield and Hopcat, which Stinnett reported is on the market. That gets us into a talk about restaurant turnover in the Highlands.Additionally, Reporter Olivia Estright is on the show to talk about a potential new Aldi location in Southern Indiana and the potential sale of a golf course in New Albany. We also chat about the latest with the Monon South Trail, a vote to unionize at the BlueOval plant in Glendale, Kentucky, a looming shutdown of I-65 next year for road work and the news that VSimple is moving to Louisville.

President Donald Trump called out countries trying to regulate U.S. tech companies earlier this week, warning they could face new tariffs. The White House has struck a provisional trade deal with the European Union, but tensions remain over the bloc's sweeping tech laws, like the Digital Services Act, which requires platforms to moderate illegal content and disinformation.

According to the violent crime survey by the Major Cities Chiefs Association, there were 17 homicides in Portland in the first half of 2025 compared to 35 for the same period last year. That 51% decline is the largest drop in homicides among the 68 city and county police agencies represented in the survey. Aggravated assaults, rapes and robberies have also declined in Portland and nationwide, according to the survey. Gun violence, however, continues to be a problem, with three firearm-related homicides recorded in Portland just last month. Ceasefire is one of the initiatives the city is pursuing to break the cycle of gun violence. Launched in 2023, it’s based on a national model that identifies individuals at high risk for gun violence and provides them with supportive services and intensive case management within their communities. Ceasefire director Sierra Ellis and Lt. Israel Hill, who supervises the Portland Police Bureau’s Focused Intervention Team and Enhanced Community Safety Team, join us to talk about Ceasefire and other strategies the city is pursuing to curb violent crimes.
The White House fired CDC Director Susan Monarez after about a month on the job. The reason? Her attorney says it's because Monarez refused to rubber-stamp unscientific, reckless directives and would not fire dedicated health experts. A White House spokesperson says it's because she refused to resign and is “not aligned with the President's agenda of Making America Healthy Again.” After her firing yesterday, at least four other CDC officials turned in their resignations too, citing the political weaponizing of science and the spread of misinformation hurting public health, The shake up comes amid new strict CDC Covid vaccine regulations.

Tune in here to this Wednesday edition of the Brett Winterble Show! Brett kicks off the program by talking about the devastating terrorist attack at a Catholic school and church in Minnesota, where two children were killed, 14 others wounded, and several adults injured. As a Catholic himself, he reflects on the sanctity of Mass as a place of peace and worship, now shattered by violence. Shifting from the tragedy, Brett delivers a passionate message about culture’s corrosive impact on children and families, warning that society’s erosion of values has created fertile ground for chaos and despair. He urges parents and communities to stand firm as shields for their children, instilling faith, charity, and godly values as a foundation for life. Brett stresses that the future depends on raising children with courage, grace, and conviction, declaring that surrender is not an option. His message is both a lament over tragedy and a call to rise as guardians of light in a darkening world. Later Brett turns his focus to the law enforcement briefing in Minneapolis following the tragic attack on a Catholic school and church. Officials detailed the heavy toll on victims, families, and first responders, many of whom are deeply shaken by what they witnessed. Brett highlights the gravity of the situation, noting that Minneapolis has also faced other violent incidents in recent days, compounding the sense of crisis. He raises concerns about how city and state leaders are handling public safety, questioning whether current policies are adequately addressing the growing threat of violent crime. Brett stresses that beyond the immediate tragedy, the broader issue is how to protect communities from further violence and prevent such acts from recurring. He calls for accountability, stronger enforcement, and a renewed focus on protecting innocent lives. Listen here for all of this and more on The Brett Winterble Show!

Bryan Kohberger BEGS Prison Officials: “I'll B** F*** You” Threats Ignored Bryan Kohberger, convicted of murdering four University of Idaho students, is already unraveling behind bars. Just one day into life on J-Block at the Idaho Maximum Security Institution, Kohberger filed his first prison grievance. He claimed fellow inmates were subjecting him to “minute-by-minute verbal threats and harassment” and begged to be transferred to B-Block. Days later, he filed another complaint, this time alleging sexual harassment. According to Kohberger, inmates targeted him with vulgar threats: “I'll b*** f*** you.” “The only a** we'll be eating is Kohberger's.” Prison officials investigated but denied his request. Their response was blunt: J-Block is generally calm, and he “feels safe to remain” where he is. Translation? Sit tight, Bryan. In this clip, former FBI Special Agent Robin Dreeke joins Tony Brueski to break down Kohberger's complaints. What do these letters really reveal about his psychology? Is this fear, manipulation, or just the collapse of a man who thought he'd be admired in prison but instead has become an object of ridicule? #BryanKohberger #IdahoMurders #TrueCrime #PrisonLife #HiddenKillers #Justice #TrueCrimePodcast #CourtCase #PrisonNews #RobinDreeke Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?
