Podcasts about Orders

PREVIEW Pacific Palisades Fire Controversy: State Orders Firefighters to Stand Down Jeff Bliss A fire in Pacific Palisades became a major disaster after a previously burned, smoldering area was allowed to reignite. Video evidence reportedly shows a state worker ordering the LA Fire Department to leave the scene and not extinguish the smoldering underbrush. The stated reason for the order was to protect endangered plants. This response, involving state regulations, is described as "unbelievable foolishness."

Donald Trump had to make an about-face on the Epstein Files because some Trump voters were getting…mildly annoyed. Will Sommer joins Sarah to hear them out. Then, Sen. Elissa Slotkin joins the show to discuss her PSA with her colleagues to the military and intelligence community, reminding them they can refuse illegal orders. They also discuss the recent government shutdown fight, and what Sen. Slotkin learned from winning several tough races in Michigan. NOTE: This episode discusses Sen. Slotkin and her colleagues' message to the military and intelligence community that President Trump called “seditious behavior, punishable by death.” This conversation was taped before that Trump post.

Welcome to Part 23 of our Joseph Smith the Podcast series with Dr. John G. Turner. Today we are continuing our discussion of Chapter 19 of his new book “Joseph Smith: The Rise and Fall of an American Prophet” that covers the years 1838-1839 in Missouri.Today we will dive deeper into one of the most volatile and consequential moments in early Latter-day Saint history: the escalating conflict between the Mormon settlers and the Missourians in the late 1830s. In this episode, we examine how political tensions, misinformation, vigilante actions, and religious absolutism collided to create a crisis that would lead to the infamous extermination order and some of the darkest events of the Mormon-Missouri War.We explore the political landscape of Missouri, Joseph Smith's rising militancy, the Danites, the allegations made by Thomas Marsh and Orson Hyde, the tragedy at Haun's Mill, and the forces that brought both sides to the brink. From mob violence to theological justifications, from desperate settlers to governors refusing to intervene, this chapter shows how a religious movement and a frontier state found themselves locked in a spiral neither could escape.If you've been following the series, this episode continues directly from Part 22 and sets the stage for the next chapter: Liberty Jail.Please purchase the book ⁠here⁠.To support this series please donate ⁠here⁠.

Trump calls for the arrest of congressional Democrats who urged U.S. troops to refuse illegal orders. Then, polls show more voters are feeling the pain of skyrocketing prices, while JD Vance defends Trump's economic policies and asks the American people for “a little patience”.

The Rich Zeoli Show- Full Episode (11/20/2025): 3:05pm- Michael Knowles—Host of The Michael Knowles Show on The Daily Wire & Author of the book “Reasons to Vote for Democrats” (every page is blank)—joins Rich Zeoli to discuss their PragerU Book Club episode on Animal Farm which was recently released! Check it out here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wmFJ11619bY. 3:30pm- On Wednesday night, President Donald Trump signed the Epstein Transparency Act which directs the Justice Department to release all the files in its possession related to its investigation into sex offender Jeffrey Epstein. 3:40pm- During a segment on her MS NOW show, Jen Psaki seemingly tried to exploit a victim of Epstein's predations by asking her questions which sought to link President Trump to Epstein. Psaki's attempt ultimately failed, leaving everyone uncomfortable. 3:45pm- Sen. Dave McCormick—United States Senator from Pennsylvania—joins The Rich Zeoli Show to discuss his recent editorial in the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette, “Veterans Are Not Victims, But Some Need Help.” You can find the article here: https://www.post-gazette.com/opinion/guest-columns/2025/11/11/veterans-day-affairs-va-mental-health-dave-mccormick/stories/202511110003. 4:00pm- On Thursday, several Democratic lawmakers—Sen. Elissa Slotkin, Sen. Mark Kelly, Rep. Jason Crow, Rep. Maggie Goodlander, Rep. Chris Deluzio, and Rep. Chrissy Houlahan—released a video to social media imploring service members and intelligence officials to disobey “illegal” orders issued by President Donald Trump. Though, they never once mentioned what the orders might hypothetically be. In a post to Truth Social, President Trump stated: “This is really bad, and Dangerous to our Country. Their words cannot be allowed to stand. SEDITIOUS BEHAVIOR FROM TRAITORS!!! LOCK THEM UP???” He added, “SEDITIOUS BEHAVIOR, punishable by DEATH!” 4:30pm- Don't listen to Rich's Google search recommendations…under any circumstances…your targeted ads will never let you forget it… 4:45pm- White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt emphatically told the press that “no,” President Trump is not calling for the execution of lawmakers who posted a video urging military service members to ignore orders from the president. 5:00pm- Speaking from the House floor, Rep. Jasmine Crockett (D-TX) accused several Republicans including EPA Administrator Lee Zeldin of taking campaign donations from Jeffrey Epstein. However, her claim was horribly misleading. The donations were from a Dr. Jeffrey Epstein—a different Jeffery Epstein, with no relation to the predator. 5:20pm- Rep. Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) says she's finally retiring…because Hillary Clinton lost in 2016? 5:40pm- HE'S BACK! Rep. Al Green is once again calling for the impeachment of President Donald Trump—telling reporters impeachment needs to be the Democrat Party's top priority, even placing it above the economy and affordability. 6:05pm- Are aliens heading our way? Harvard University astrophysicist Avi Loeb suggests an interstellar object, 3I/ATLAS, could be a spacecraft from another planet—though, it isn't likely. 6:30pm- While speaking with Bari Weiss, psychologist Jonathan Haidt explained that research suggests liberal girls spend far more time on social media than conservative girls: “The feeds of the liberal girls get much more taken over by how terrible the world is…Liberal girls are caught in a set of disempowering ideas.” He added: “It's the liberal girls who really rise first and fastest on depression.” 6:40pm CNN Polling: Americans are noticing President Trump's numerous foreign policy successes.

Trump crossed a line, again. JVL and Sarah Longwell discuss Trump's latest tantrum: calling for Democratic senators to be put to death after they released a video reminding service members they don't have to follow illegal orders. Yes, really.Then we get into the Epstein-email panic, why Trump suddenly pretended to support releasing documents he fought for years, and what's really pressuring him behind the scenes, Dick Cheney's funeral, and the singles vaccine. Don't worry, Sarah WILL BE GETTING IT!

Send us a textBuckle up, Ones Ready fam—Aaron and Trent dive headfirst into the clown show of Democratic lawmakers (all ex-military or intel vets) dropping a cringy, scripted video urging service members to ditch "illegal orders." Spoiler: They're gaslighting the ranks with zero specifics, just vibes. Trump fires back calling it sedition punishable by death (he got the penalty wrong, but the charge? Spot on). We break down the real deal—sedition's 20 years, treason's the death penalty stuff like Milley's China stunt. Hot takes fly on media narratives, the Tweedledee-Tweedledum incitement defense, and why defying orders could land you in Leavenworth if you're wrong. No sugarcoating: Politicians are trash, oaths matter, and this is how civil wars brew. If you're in uniform, listen up—we're calling out the hypocrisy from Jason Crow's Jan 6 cowardice to Biden's vaccine mandates. Truth bombs only, no BS.⏱️ Timestamps:00:00 - Sedition 101: Clearing Up the Death Penalty Mix-Up02:23 - Vet Hosts Spill: Leaving Politics at the Door (Kinda)03:59 - Dem Lawmakers' Cringy Video Breakdown: Scripted AF06:59 - Illegal Orders?

Join Jim and Greg for the Friday 3 Martini Lunch as they break down a Democratic congressional candidate trashing the city she wants to represent, the escalating clash over Democrats urging the military to defy President Trump, and shocking revelations about taxpayer money ending up with Somali terrorists.First, they laugh as Democrat Tennessee congressional hopeful Aftyn Behn blasts Republicans for claiming Behn hates Nashville, which is in the district she wants to represent. But Behn's problem isn't with Republicans, it's the audio that still exists of her saying she hates Nashville, the constant bachelorette parties, and even country music.Next, they dig into the comments from lawmakers who cut a video urging members of the military to disobey illegal orders from President Trump. Of course, they cannot point to a single illegal order Trump has issues. Meanwhile, Trump is accusing them of sedition and pointing out that crime can be punishable by death. Jim decimates the empty and false argument the Democrats are peddling and tells Trump he doesn't have to go nuclear over everything.Finally, they dig into the exploding fraud within Minnesota's welfare programs, where budgets that were just a few million dollars a few years ago have now ballooned into the hundreds of millions. Even worse, large sums are reportedly flowing to Somali terrorists. Jim stresses that this massive breakdown has taken place under Gov. Tim Walz's watch.Please visit our great sponsors:Cancel unwanted subscriptions and reach your financial goals faster with Rocket Money at https://RocketMoney.com/MARTINI Stop putting off those doctors' appointments and go to https://ZocDoc.com/3ML to find and instantly book a top-rated doctor today.Give your liver the support it deserves with Dose Daily.  Save 35% on your first month when you subscribe at https://DoseDaily.co/3ML or enter code 3ML at checkout.

Admiral Bill McRaven joins Independent Americans host Paul Rieckhoff (@PaulRieckhoff) for episode 379 of Independent Americans, diving deep into America's leadership crisis, political toxicity, and how core values shape our future. This is the guy we all need to hear from RIGHT NOW. Navy SEAL, former Commander of Joint Special Operations Command (JSOC), former Chancellor of the Texas University System, Best Selling Author, grandfather, Trump critic and patriotic voice of reason. And the man who in 2019 wrote an old titled “Our Republic Is Under Attack From the President" and in an open letter to Trump in 2018: "Therefore, I would consider it an honor if you would revoke my security clearance as well, so I can add my name to the list of men and women who have spoken up against your presidency." Drawing on decades of command and real-world experience, McRaven cuts through the headlines like a knife—and offers sharp guidance for navigating chaos—whether in politics, the military, or your family table. And especially on this Friday when it feels like the world is on fire.  This episode covers national security, the importance of education as the true foundation for stability, sports, and why hope and community matter most now.

Steve Gruber sits down with Steve Dulan, professor and licensed attorney, to break down a controversial video made by politicians urging members of the military to disobey certain orders. They analyze the legality of the wording, what actions may legally constitute inciting an insurrection, and what falls under the category of an unlawful order. Dulan also explains the constitutional boundaries involved, clarifying what types of speech or directives violate the law versus what is protected, giving listeners a clear understanding of the legal and constitutional framework surrounding military obedience and political speech.

CannCon and Alpha Warrior dive straight into one of the most chaotic 48-hour stretches in recent political memory, breaking down the explosive fallout from Democrat lawmakers urging the military to refuse “illegal” orders—something the guys argue is closer to a call for insubordination than anything Trump has said. From congressional rhetoric to Biden-era military politicization, they unpack why this moment is far more dangerous than the media admits. The episode also revisits the growing controversy around the J6 pipe bombs, analyzing newly surfaced footage, the questionable canine sweeps, overwritten surveillance, and the suspicious Capitol Police search patterns that have everyone asking what really happened. Along the way, CannCon and Alpha mix sharp analysis with the usual veteran-style banter, roasting inter-service rivalries, laughing through technical failures, and sharing viewer messages. It's a fast, fiery SITREP filled with hard questions, sharp insights, and zero patience for political games.

Navigating the Complex World of Civil Procedure: Discovery and Its ImpactThis conversation provides a comprehensive overview of discovery in law, focusing on the rules and strategies essential for law students preparing for exams and practicing attorneys. It covers the scope of discovery, the tools available, mandatory disclosures, the importance of expert testimony, and the implications of electronically stored information (ESI). The discussion also delves into the attorney-client privilege and work product doctrine, as well as the potential sanctions for failing to comply with discovery rules. The conversation concludes with practical exam strategies and reflections on the justice system's approach to truth and proportionality.In the realm of civil litigation, discovery is often where the real battle is fought. As law students and practitioners alike know, the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure, particularly Chapter Five, can make or break a case long before it reaches the courtroom. This blog post delves into the critical aspects of discovery, offering insights and strategies to navigate this complex terrain.Understanding the Scope and ProportionalityThe foundation of discovery lies in Rule 26B1, which governs the scope of what can be requested. Historically, discovery aimed to eliminate trial by ambush, ensuring full disclosure. However, the rise of electronically stored information (ESI) has transformed the landscape, leading to a paradigm shift in 2015. The focus has shifted from mere relevance to proportionality, requiring that requests be non-privileged, relevant, and proportional to the needs of the case.The Six Factors of ProportionalityTo determine proportionality, courts consider six factors: the importance of the issues at stake, the amount in controversy, the parties' relative access to information, the parties' resources, the importance of the discovery in resolving the issues, and whether the burden or expense of the proposed discovery outweighs its likely benefit. Understanding these factors is crucial for any legal professional navigating discovery disputes.The Role of Privilege and Work ProductTwo critical shields in discovery are attorney-client privilege and the work product doctrine. While privilege protects confidential communications between a lawyer and client, work product safeguards materials prepared in anticipation of litigation. These doctrines are essential for protecting sensitive information and ensuring a fair adversarial process.Sanctions and ComplianceFailure to comply with discovery rules can lead to severe sanctions under Rule 37. From exclusion of evidence to default judgments, the consequences of non-compliance underscore the importance of adhering to discovery obligations. Understanding the nuances of these rules is vital for avoiding costly mistakes.As you prepare for exams or practice law, remember that discovery is not just about gathering information—it's about strategy, compliance, and understanding the rules that govern the process. By mastering the intricacies of discovery, you can effectively navigate the legal landscape and achieve favorable outcomes for your clients.Subscribe now to stay updated on the latest legal insights and strategies.TakeawaysDiscovery is crucial for case outcomes.Understanding proportionality is key in discovery.The burden of proof lies with the resisting party.Mandatory disclosures streamline the discovery process.Interrogatories help clarify facts and contentions.Corporate depositions require thorough preparation.ESI has transformed litigation practices.Attorney-client privilege is easily waived.Work product doctrine protects legal strategies.Sanctions enforce compliance with discovery rules.law school, discovery, civil procedure, bar exam, legal education, attorney-client privilege, ESI, sanctions, legal strategy, exam preparation

104 year old woman drinks 3 Dr Peppers per day. White House fights back against members of Congress calling on our military to disobey orders. Dems read the list of donors from Dr Epstein. Judge rules Seperated couple must go to auction over their dog for custody. Jessica Rosenthal on Roblox gaming platform's new age verification system.

On Wednesday's Mark Levin Show, the video with Democratic veterans urging the military and intelligence communities to defy ‘illegal orders' from President Trump, without specifying what those orders are is shocking. This is unprecedented exploitation, implying the President is portrayed as a law-violating dictator. Democrats pretend to support the military while slashing its budgets under Biden. Also, people are falling for media-reported phony scandals, particularly claims that Trump will withhold or tamper with the Epstein files, which some neo-fascists and influencers exploited all summer to attack him and MAGA. The Democrat criticism is endless exploitation to create pseudo-news and impressions. Later, the House Democratic Caucus is embroiled in internal drama after Representative Jesus "Chuy" Garcia rigged his district's election by filing to run again shortly before the deadline, followed by his chief of staff, Patty Garcia, filing just minutes before it closed, and then Garcia retiring for health and family reasons, ensuring no primary or general opponents. This is the Democrats manipulating the electoral process to avoid fair competition. Afterward, Trump has been accused of focusing too much on foreign policy at the expense of domestic issues, but he balances both effectively and often intertwines them. This is nothing but media-driven repetition.  Finally, Scott Jennings calls in to discuss his new book – A Revolution of Common Sense: How Donald Trump Stormed Washington and Fought for Western Civilization.

Half a dozen Democrats in Congress with military and intelligence backgrounds urged current service members to ignore the chain of command if they are given unlawful orders. President Trump reacted by writing that these members of Congress should be arrested, saying their actions are “seditious behavior” that is “punishable by death.” Amna Nawaz discussed more with Rep. Jason Crow of Colorado. PBS News is supported by - https://www.pbs.org/newshour/about/funders. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy

War Room WH Press Sec. Goes NUCLEAR On Dems Urging US Military to DEFY Trump's Orders, As Trump Floats Execution as Punishment for Sedition…Plus, Secret Border Patrol Program Monitors Millions of Drivers to Catch Illegals

What made Donald Trump sign the paperwork to release the Epstein files and will it end up hurting the Democrats more than anyone else? Plus, the squad releases a new anti-law enforcement ad campaign that is dropping jaws and here's when jobs will start returning.

As the Epstein files get released, it gets worse and worse for Democrats. Hakeem Jeffries' campaign asked Epstein for money, Stacey Plaskett texted him during a hearing, both took place after he was convicted as a sex offender. It is clear that Epstein was President Trump's enemy after a real estate dispute, but was President Trump an FBI informant helping to bring Epstein down? Democrats, led by Elise Slotkin, released a 'Don't Give Up The Ship' video, calling on the military to defy orders from the president. What those orders are exactly, no one knows, including the Democrats that made the video. President Trump called the video seditious and it most certainly is bordering on unlawful according to 18 U.S. Code section 2387. It turns out the Biden administration hid information about Thomas Crooks, the man who tried to assassinate President Trump. The American people have lost all faith in our government institutions and we were promised a transparent FBI under Kash Patel and the Trump administration's leadership. As federal troops head to Charlotte, 21% of the students missed school. The local community has Citizens Patrol working shifts to alert people to ICE/Border Patrol agents.

On this episode of America at Night with guest host Dom Giordano, we break down a stunning wave of political turbulence as several Democratic members of Congress openly encourage the U.S. military to defy President Trump's lawful commands. Dom speaks with Lt. Col. (Ret.) Allen West — former Congressman, Army veteran, and current Chairman of the Dallas County GOP — for his expert reaction to this unprecedented rhetoric, what it means for the chain of command, and the dangers it poses heading into a volatile election year. They also examine Trump's approval to release long-awaited Epstein files, what information may soon become public, and the national implications once these documents are unsealed. This and more as Dom guides listeners through another night of breaking news, high stakes, and informed conversation. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices
