AP's Lisa Dwyer reports that more oversight duties are being moved out of the Department of Education.
President Donald Trump has signed off on a massive increase in funding for U.S. immigration enforcement. The legislation, called the Secure America Act, was approved by Congress last week, after a standoff between lawmakers. Democrats said they didn't want to give more funding to the Department of Homeland Security after the killings of Renee Good and Alex Pretti in Minneapolis this winter. But those negotiations fell apart, and now $70 billion will go to ICE and Border Patrol. Supporters say the investment will help the federal government enforce immigration laws and secure the border. Critics argue it gives too much power to the agency and not enough oversight. Heidi Altman is vice president of policy at the National Immigration Law Center. She joined Minnesota Now to talk about the bill and her concerns about what was left out.

Judicial Watch's Epstein-related lawsuit is primarily a Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) action filed against the U.S. Department of Justice (DOJ) in late 2025, seeking the release of government records related to accused sex trafficker Jeffrey Epstein that the group says have been improperly withheld from the public. The suit, Judicial Watch Inc. v. U.S. Department of Justice (No. 1:25-cv-04123), demands all documents that were subpoenaed by the U.S. House Committee on Oversight and Government Reform, including what was provided in response and communications about that response, after the DOJ failed to adequately respond to an August 2025 FOIA request. The records sought include internal DOJ materials and communications with federal officials about the subpoena and the broader Epstein investigation — material that Judicial Watch argues the public has a right to see given the high-profile nature of the case and longstanding questions about transparency.In addition to the DOJ FOIA suit, Judicial Watch has filed related FOIA lawsuits seeking Epstein-related records from other federal agencies. These include a FOIA lawsuit against the Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) for any records concerning Epstein's possible involvement with intelligence activities, his business dealings and travel, his contacts with influential figures, and documentation about his death, after the CIA failed to respond to a July 2025 FOIA request. Judicial Watch has also pursued DOJ and FBI records on the identities of Epstein's clients or associates and records provided to the FBI by accuser Virginia Giuffre. Through these cases, the group aims to compel the release of materials that could illuminate undisclosed aspects of the Epstein investigation and potentially government handling of related evidence.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-moscow-murders-and-more--5852883/support.

Oakland's Police Department has been under federal oversight since 2003, but this year that will be coming to an end. The oversight began after a civil rights lawsuit filed on behalf of 119 residents, most of them Black men, who alleged that multiple Oakland police officers had beaten and planted evidence on them. To understand what this moment means, KALW's Sunni Khalid spoke with Darwin BondGraham, the news editor at The Oaklandside. He is also the author, along with Ali Winston, of the book, "The Riders Come Out At Night," an exhaustive look at the scandal that shook the city of Oakland, as well as a history of decades of corruption inside the OPD.

The discovery that Epstein-related documents were shredded during an active investigation severely weakens the credibility of the official narrative. The directive language—“make sure you get that box too”—points to intentional, targeted destruction rather than routine procedure, especially given that oversight officials were present at the time. This behavior does not align with a story built on negligence and bureaucratic failure. Instead, it introduces evidence of deliberate decision-making, suggesting that certain materials were removed because of their potential impact. When placed alongside the known irregularities—camera failures, falsified logs, and procedural lapses—the destruction of documents shifts the case away from coincidence and toward a pattern of controlled outcomes.Once parts of the evidentiary record are intentionally destroyed, the integrity of the entire investigation is compromised. Missing documents mean missing connections—timelines, communications, and accountability chains that can no longer be reconstructed. This creates permanent gaps that prevent any conclusion from being considered complete or definitive. Rather than reinforcing the official explanation, the destruction of evidence raises new questions about what was removed and why. As a result, the case no longer supports a simple narrative of failure, but instead suggests that the scope of what could be known was actively limited.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-moscow-murders-and-more--5852883/support.
What does the FDA's latest update on cosmetics regulation mean for beauty brands, manufacturers, and marketers? In this episode, we unpack how the FDA is expanding its oversight of the cosmetics industry through implementation of the Modernization of Cosmetics Regulation Act (MoCRA), the most significant overhaul of federal cosmetics regulation in more than 80 years. From mandatory facility registration, product listing, adverse event reporting, and safety substantiation requirements to forthcoming rules on good manufacturing practices, fragrance allergens, PFAS scrutiny, and talc testing, the agency is gaining unprecedented visibility into the cosmetics marketplace. As FDA signals that compliance, transparency, and product safety will remain key priorities, companies should prepare for heightened regulatory, litigation, and reputational risks in an increasingly scrutinized industry. Hosted by Simone Roach. Based on a blog post by Donnelly L. McDowell, Cristina Ferretti, and Katrina Hatahet.

An Annunciation family is condemning the gaming platform Roblox for a game modeled after the 2012 massacre at Sandy Hook Elementary School. Leah and Harry Kaiser said it's “heartbreaking and unacceptable” to see tragedies like the one that critically injured their daughter recreated on the platform. They sent a letter to Roblox calling for stronger safeguards against violent content. The company said on social media the simulation was removed in early February.The Minnesota Court of Appeals has ruled the city of Faribault erred when it decided a proposed data center did not require a more in-depth environmental study. The nonprofit Minnesota Center for Environmental Advocacy appealed the decision, arguing the city did not have enough information about the project's potential air and noise pollution and greenhouse gas emissions. A new congressional report dissects internal problems that could have allowed fraud to fester in Minnesota-run programs. The 200-page report by the U.S. House Committee on Oversight and Government Reform retraces fraud in nutrition and Medicaid programs and what was done about it. It's shaping up to be a hot, humid and stormy few days across Minnesota, with chances for severe weather. After scattered storms through tonight, highs are expected to climb into the upper 80s to low 90s across much of the state Tuesday and Wednesday.
Victor Lopez on Fixing Broken MSP Financial Plumbing with AI Todd interviews Victor Lopez, a former attorney and private credit professional at Blue Owl Capital who co-founded Flexpoint after seeing how clunky MSP financial tools were. Victor traces his "aha" back to Blue Owl financing Thoma Bravo's 2018 acquisition of ConnectWise, which led him to question why PSAs mix ticketing/project work with invoicing while still requiring separate accounting software. They discuss how most AI talk in the MSP industry centers on service delivery, but Victor argues owners should also apply AI to operations like accounts receivable/payable, collecting and making payments, payroll, and other non-revenue tasks that often fall on owner-operators (especially in sub-$1M MSPs). Victor describes AI agents, including voice AI for overdue invoice calls, and emphasizes human-in-the-loop controls, segmenting which customers are contacted, and escalation to a human to protect relationships while improving efficiency and owner quality of life.

Jes Staley, the former Barclays chief executive and former JPMorgan Chase executive, has agreed to sit for a voluntary, transcribed interview with the House Oversight and Government Reform Committee on July 23 about his relationship with Jeffrey Epstein. The interview was requested by Oversight Chairman James Comer as part of the committee's broader probe into how Epstein was able to maintain access to elite financial, legal, political, and social networks for years despite his criminal history. Staley is a particularly important witness because he previously ran JPMorgan's private wealth and asset management operations, where Epstein was a major client, and because his own relationship with Epstein has already drawn serious regulatory, legal, and reputational scrutiny.The focus is not just that Staley knew Epstein, but how close that relationship was, what JPMorgan understood about Epstein while he remained a client, and whether major institutions ignored warning signs because Epstein was financially useful and socially connected. Staley has long maintained that he did not know about Epstein's criminal conduct, but prior proceedings and disclosures have raised questions about the depth of their friendship, including personal communications and findings by UK regulators that led to Staley being banned from senior financial roles. His July 23 interview now places him alongside other high-profile Epstein-linked figures expected to face congressional questioning, including Bill Gates, Leon Black, and Kathryn Ruemmler, as lawmakers continue trying to fill in the gaps left by settlements, sealed records, institutional evasions, and years of official failure.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:Former Barclays CEO Jes Staley agrees to July 23 interview about Jeffrey Epstein by oversight panel

What followed was a remarkable journey that challenged expectations and transformed both their lives.Drawing on leadership principles, practical strategies, and deep personal experience, Mark shares how families can become Care Leaders, not just caregivers, by creating environments that prioritize safety, joy, connection, purpose, and well-being.We discuss:• The mindset shift from caregiver to care leader• The five breakthrough pillars of care• Building and leading an effective care team• Creating moments of joy even in the face of dementia• Supporting your loved one without losing yourself• Why hope still matters after an Alzheimer's diagnosis• Finding purpose and meaning throughout the caregiving journeyWhether you're caring for a parent, spouse, partner, or friend, this episode offers practical guidance, heartfelt wisdom, and a powerful reminder that love can still create extraordinary moments.Because even when there is no cure, there can still be connection, purpose, and joy.If this conversation helps, subscribe, share it with a friend who's caregiving, and leave a review so more families searching for Alzheimer's caregiving support and dementia care strategies can find it.#LoveConquersAlz, #Alzheimers, #Dementia, #Caregiving, #FamilyCaregiver, #CaregiverSupport, #DementiaCare, #SeniorCare, #CareLeader, #AgingParents, #CaregiverLife, #AlzheimersAwareness, #CaregivingJourney, #ElderCare, #CaregiverWellnesConnect with Mark:Website: Bold Care LeaderLinkedIn: LinkedIn ProfileInstagram: @boldcareleaderFacebook: Mark Wilson / Bold Care Leader on FacebookBook: Breakthrough Alzheimer's CareSend us Fan MailIf someone you love experienced neglect in a nursing home…Then you know how desperately the system needs to change.

Jes Staley, the former Barclays chief executive and former JPMorgan Chase executive, has agreed to sit for a voluntary, transcribed interview with the House Oversight and Government Reform Committee on July 23 about his relationship with Jeffrey Epstein. The interview was requested by Oversight Chairman James Comer as part of the committee's broader probe into how Epstein was able to maintain access to elite financial, legal, political, and social networks for years despite his criminal history. Staley is a particularly important witness because he previously ran JPMorgan's private wealth and asset management operations, where Epstein was a major client, and because his own relationship with Epstein has already drawn serious regulatory, legal, and reputational scrutiny.The focus is not just that Staley knew Epstein, but how close that relationship was, what JPMorgan understood about Epstein while he remained a client, and whether major institutions ignored warning signs because Epstein was financially useful and socially connected. Staley has long maintained that he did not know about Epstein's criminal conduct, but prior proceedings and disclosures have raised questions about the depth of their friendship, including personal communications and findings by UK regulators that led to Staley being banned from senior financial roles. His July 23 interview now places him alongside other high-profile Epstein-linked figures expected to face congressional questioning, including Bill Gates, Leon Black, and Kathryn Ruemmler, as lawmakers continue trying to fill in the gaps left by settlements, sealed records, institutional evasions, and years of official failure.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:Former Barclays CEO Jes Staley agrees to July 23 interview about Jeffrey Epstein by oversight panelBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-epstein-chronicles--5003294/support.

At sixteen, with straight A's in math and science, Dr. Karen Panetta's school career assessment told her to sell makeup or be a cook. A male friend with lower scores got engineer or politician. No AI was involved. Just a rules-based system applying gender and biographical filters to two teenagers. That same logic now sits inside AI tools landing in admissions offices and HR systems across higher ed, with one critical difference: AI does not eliminate human bias, it removes the human accountability that used to make bias correctable. In this episode of the Changing Higher Ed® podcast, Dr. Drumm McNaughton speaks with Dr. Karen Panetta, Dean of Graduate Education for the School of Engineering at Tufts University and an IEEE Fellow. Panetta lays out a procurement framework presidents and boards can use to evaluate AI tools before signing a contract. She and McNaughton work through the four questions most vendors cannot answer, why IRB principles already give higher ed a working framework for AI, and what happens to graduate research when students ask AI for a unique contribution and accept whatever comes back. This conversation is especially relevant for institutional leaders making decisions about AI procurement, classroom adoption, and data governance who want a clear set of questions to ask before they buy and a clear standard for keeping humans accountable for the decisions AI tools are increasingly being asked to make. Topics Covered: The four procurement questions every higher ed leader should ask before signing an AI contract Why expert disagreement on ground truth limits what any AI tool trained on that judgment can do How IRB principles apply to AI deployments, and why every kind use of technology has a misuse case sitting next to it The risk of AI's interpretation of truth aging with the consensus Why faculty in English, history, and the arts are essential to AI policy What IEEE's 500,000 technical professionals are doing on AI standards that no single corporate vendor will do Real-World Examples Discussed: The career assessments that pointed a top math student toward cooking and a Navy veteran toward forest ranger work A cancer detection project where six doctors agreed on whether something was cancer but disagreed on every grade beyond that A conservation project where the same tracking data that helps park rangers could help poachers if security is weak Graduate admissions committees where different faculty weight credentials, projects, and volunteer work differently, and what gets lost when only one set of weights is encoded into an AI screen Three Key Takeaways for Leadership: AI does not create bias. It scales whatever bias is already in the institution's decision systems, at the speed and volume the institution chose to deploy. Every consequential decision needs a human in the loop who can explain the call out loud. Without that, the institution cannot defend the decisions it is making. The sticker price on the AI tool is not the story. The data behind it is, and most vendors cannot tell you what it is. This episode gives presidents, provosts, and boards a practical framework for AI procurement and governance, along with a clear answer to the trustee asking why the institution has not bought what everyone else is buying.

Judicial Watch's Epstein-related lawsuit is primarily a Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) action filed against the U.S. Department of Justice (DOJ) in late 2025, seeking the release of government records related to accused sex trafficker Jeffrey Epstein that the group says have been improperly withheld from the public. The suit, Judicial Watch Inc. v. U.S. Department of Justice (No. 1:25-cv-04123), demands all documents that were subpoenaed by the U.S. House Committee on Oversight and Government Reform, including what was provided in response and communications about that response, after the DOJ failed to adequately respond to an August 2025 FOIA request. The records sought include internal DOJ materials and communications with federal officials about the subpoena and the broader Epstein investigation — material that Judicial Watch argues the public has a right to see given the high-profile nature of the case and longstanding questions about transparency.In addition to the DOJ FOIA suit, Judicial Watch has filed related FOIA lawsuits seeking Epstein-related records from other federal agencies. These include a FOIA lawsuit against the Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) for any records concerning Epstein's possible involvement with intelligence activities, his business dealings and travel, his contacts with influential figures, and documentation about his death, after the CIA failed to respond to a July 2025 FOIA request. Judicial Watch has also pursued DOJ and FBI records on the identities of Epstein's clients or associates and records provided to the FBI by accuser Virginia Giuffre. Through these cases, the group aims to compel the release of materials that could illuminate undisclosed aspects of the Epstein investigation and potentially government handling of related evidence.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-epstein-chronicles--5003294/support.

Luis Elizondo credits journalists and Chris Mellon for bringing the UAP issue into the public eye through The New York Times. He describes Mellon as a "national treasure" who pushed for congressional oversight after discovering the Pentagon was withholding data. Despite bipartisan legislative efforts, "pockets" within the Pentagon—often termed "weebies" who outlast political appointees—continue to use propaganda and classification to hide malfeasance. Elizondohighlights the danger of these objects splitting combat air formations and stresses that the military-industrial complex often operates unilaterally, ignoring the chain of command.
