A Diverse Unity - Church shaped by God's Word Sermon 4 - Church and orderly oversight 1 Timothy 2:9-3:7 Sunday 27th September 2026 Dave Brown preaching

SAS has led data management for the federal government for over fifty years. We face a new technology that tightly integrates data and AI. Today, we sit down with Reggie Townsend to get his ideas on human involvement in AI and review a new report, the 2026 Data and AI Impact Report. AS's 2026 Data and AI Impact Report, based on IDC research, finds that trustworthy AI is strongly associated with better business results. Organizations with strong governance, data quality, auditability, and explainability practices were 15 times more likely to report strong AI ROI. Nearly all users—97.2%—override AI recommendations at least occasionally, with lack of explanation the leading reason. Trust also declines as AI becomes more autonomous. Only 17.5% of enterprises have data infrastructure mature enough for agentic AI. The study, covering 2,699 decision-makers across 28 countries, concludes that strong data foundations and trustworthy AI practices are essential for successfully scaling AI. During the interview, Townsend tempers this information with comments about a human component, typically called getting the human in the loop. He begins by noting that humans are part of the solution, then comments on federal involvement. Townsend thinks government involvement in evaluating AI capabilities may be warranted to protect citizens.

Built For Life, Not Just Wealth is the podcast from Ryan Burklo and Alex Collins of Quantified Financial Partners in the Greater Seattle area. Earlier episodes were published as Beer & Money and Holistic Finance. In this episode of Built For Life Not Just Wealth, Alex Collins explores the capabilities and limitations of AI in financial planning, emphasizing the importance of proper prompting, verification, and human oversight to avoid pitfalls. He also shows how small errors or unchecked assumptions can quickly create big consequences in high-stakes financial decisions.   Check out our website:  https://www.builtforlifenotjustwealth.com/ Find us on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@builtforlifenotjustwealth/ Subscribe to our newsletter: https://www.quantifiedfinancial.com/subscribe-now Check out our Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/ryanburklofinance?igsh=ZTJzN3Jnajd5M2Mw Ryan Burklo's LinkedIn profile: https://www.linkedin.com/in/ryanburklo/ Alex Collin's LinkedIn profile: https://www.linkedin.com/in/alexandercollins/ For a quick assessment of your current financial life go to: https://www.livingbalancesheet.com/lbsVision/lite/RyanBurklo   #BuiltForLifeNotJustWealth #AI #financialplanning #prompts #verification #financialliteracy #portfoliomanagement #retirementplanning #AIblindspots #financialadvice #tools   Takeaways Prompts significantly influence AI outputs in financial planning.

AI agents have begun to move from speculative promise into everyday deployment. They translate high-level goals into plans and carry them out across connected digital environments. Agent builders often promise that users will remain in control through approval prompts and pause buttons. Yet these safeguards work only when users can recognize a mistake and intervene before its consequences cascade. Drawing on fieldwork in a computational biology laboratory, Data & Society's primer The Oversight Fallacy examines what effective oversight of AI Agents requires in practice.

Marc Cox and Kim St. Onge host Missouri State Auditor Scott Fitzpatrick to discuss state oversight of federal program expenditures, Medicaid compliance, and findings from the annual Single Audit of $20.5 billion in federal funds administered across Missouri state agencies. Fitzpatrick summarizes meetings held with federal fraud task force representatives—including U.S. Department of Justice officials—and outlines key audit findings regarding MO HealthNet administration. The audit identified approximately 10,000 duplicate Medicaid enrollments resulting in an estimated $60 million annual expense, an 85,000-person eligibility re-verification backlog, and oversight deficiencies in pandemic-era nutrition assistance programs managed by the Missouri Department of Health and Senior Services.For official voter registration guidelines, sample ballots, and election information, consult the Missouri Secretary of State Elections Division.

Minneapolis City Council Member Michael Rainville joins Adam and Jordana.

September 27, 2026, 8 AM;During his testimony before the House Judiciary Committee in January, he defended the investigations he led into Donald Trump's efforts to subvert the 2020 election as well as Trump taking classified documents to Mar-a-Lago after he left the White House. Smith faced hostile questions from Republican lawmakers, who accused him of political bias and overzealous prosecution. They also accused him of spying on members of Congress after it was revealed that prosecutors obtained telephone toll records of certain Republican lawmakers surrounding the events of January 6th. We are likely to see more of the same accusations from Senate Republicans because the hearing is titled “Oversight of Jack Smith's Abuse of Authority and the Targeting of Republicans and Related Matters.” Senator Cory Booker joins The Weekend to discuss the hearing.For more, follow us on social media:Bluesky: @theweekendmsnow.bsky.socialInstagram: @theweekendmsnowTikTok: @theweekendmsnow To listen to this show and other MS podcasts without ads, sign up for MS NOW Premium on Apple Podcasts.

In September 2026, the U.S. District Court for the District of Columbia preliminarily enjoined the EPA from sending four Clean Air Act waivers to Congress for potential repeal under the Congressional Review Act (CRA). These waivers have allowed California to enact its own vehicle emission standards. Judge Beryl Howell held the CRA's bar on judicial review does not reach an agency's threshold determination that its action is a "rule," and found California had standing to challenge the EPA's June 2026 press release announcing it was transmitting the rules to Congress. What may happen next in this case; and what does this litigation suggest about the limits on using the CRA as a deregulatory tool? Join us for a panel discussing the decision and the broader state of play on CRA issues under the current administration.Featuring:Michael Buschbacher, Managing Partner, Boyden Gray PLLCAndrew Ceonzo, Counsel to U.S. Senator Schmitt and the Senate Judiciary Committee(Moderator) Daniel M.

Sixty-seven acres of restored natural habitat in the heart of Salinas is now open to the public. And, an executive order aims to speed up oversight of artificial intelligence in California and study new rules.

Chuck Todd argues we've entered end-stage Trump — the most dangerous phase — as the president lashes out at a reality that keeps refusing to cooperate: raiding the Pentagon to fund his vanity arch, banning news outlets from the White House over coverage he dislikes. The new NBC poll gives him nothing to work with. Trump's approval sits at a second-term low of 41%, 55% say his policies have hurt the economy, and 43% say their congressional vote is meant to signal opposition to him — the highest such share NBC has recorded in three decades of pre-midterm polling. The war is a millstone (62% say it wasn't worth it), data centers are the worst-performing issue of the cycle, and the most popular positions in the survey are taxing billionaires and Medicare for All. Chuck’s read: the midterms are now entirely a referendum on Trump and the wave is showing up in Republican behavior as much as the polling. Then, Louisiana Congressman Troy Carter joins the Chuck ToddCast to talk about a state whose bipartisan political culture — he worked productively with Mike Johnson in the statehouse — has been steamrolled by a president who's made clear he doesn't want to work with Democrats at all. Carter notes the irony that a majority of Johnson's own district is Medicaid-dependent in a state that never expanded Medicaid, and that the One Big Beautiful Bill cut it anyway. He argues Democrats lose working-class voters by refusing to speak plain American, that Bill Cassidy would have been tough to beat had he run as an independent rather than losing his primary, and that impeachment without the votes is a fool's errand even as rampant corruption demands answers. Plus: why progressives struggle with Black voters, the flawed SCORE Act, Jeff Landry's LSU mess, and Carter's bill requiring watermarks on AI video. Finally, Chuck hops into the ToddCast Time Machine to revisit the story of Soviet soldier Stanislav Petrov correctly identifying a false alarm and preventing a potential nuclear war & the importance of human decision making in an automated system. He also answers listeners’ questions in the “Ask Chuck” segment and recaps the week in college football.

The Federal Reserve, the FDIC, and the OCC issued a clarification on bank oversight of core processing providers and other critical vendors. The interagency statement outlines expectations for third-party risk management, including due diligence, contracting, ongoing monitoring, and exit planning. It emphasizes that banks remain accountable for compliance and highlights contract terms such as audit rights, service-level agreements, incident notification timelines, data ownership, and termination assistance. The agencies note coordinated examinations of service providers through the FFIEC to align supervisory expectations. The concentration of core providers like Fiserv, FIS, and Jack Henry raises operational and negotiation risks, prompting banks to revisit contracts and reporting. Fintechs and Banking-as-a-Service partners should expect longer procurement and deeper control reviews, including SOC 2 reports, penetration testing, and financial resilience documentation.Learn more on this news by visiting us at: https://greyjournal.net/news/ Hosted on Acast.

1701 ARABIASaudi Nuclear Ambitions Spark Congressional OversightHenry Sokolski analyzes the controversial US-Saudi nuclear cooperation agreement, which permits Saudi Arabia to enrich uranium domestically. Congressional leaders from both parties are demanding transparency regarding classified documents stored in Capitol facilities that conceal vendor lists and fuel supply terms. Sokolski warns that domestic enrichment creates severe proliferation risks, as inspectors cannot guarantee timely warnings before potential weaponization, especially since Saudi Arabia refuses comprehensive IAEA inspections at undeclared sites. Furthermore, constructing nuclear reactors in an active conflict zone exposes facilities to Houthi missile strikes and cyberattacks, while global powers simultaneously escalate offensive space-control capabilities.

Five takeaways:Alignment is not a negotiation between beings. Models are software and data. Trust lives in the harness around them, not as a personality trait inside them.The labs own the outcome. Asking government to coordinate a slowdown is an admission of weak software. Slowing themselves to build the control plane is accountability. A legally enforced industry pause is not.The Anthropic and OpenAI/Hugging Face incidents were harness failures started by human prompts and weak boundaries. Unexpected solutions are the product working. Unauthorized consequences are the safety failure.Humans should set policy, not approve every click. Oversight at scale is software: traces, audits, escalation, and authority changes. Recursive self-improvement needs the same harness. There is no stable middle gear.Access and redistribution are not ownership. Free agents, local data-center bargains, market humanism, and robot taxes can help. None of them put a unit in her name.

The congressional depositions of Bill and Hillary Clinton expose a broader problem with the House investigation into Jeffrey Epstein: lawmakers appear to apply different levels of scrutiny depending on the political identity of the witness. Democratic members repeatedly characterize the Clinton depositions as political theater and spend significant portions of their public messaging attacking Republican motives rather than aggressively testing the Clintons' answers against the documentary record. Bill Clinton's documented relationship with Epstein, including travel aboard Epstein's aircraft and years of social contact, provides ample ground for detailed questioning, yet the deposition often lacks the kind of sustained follow-up that would normally accompany discrepancies, failures of memory, or assertions that conflict with other known evidence. Hillary Clinton's testimony receives similar defensive treatment, with Democratic members appearing more interested in challenging the legitimacy of the proceeding than independently examining what she knew about Epstein and Ghislaine Maxwell. Republicans contribute to the dysfunction with irrelevant and theatrical questioning of their own, but that does not excuse Democratic members from their responsibility to conduct serious oversight. The result is an investigation that too often resembles competing political defense teams rather than a disciplined effort to establish facts.The Clinton depositions also highlight a larger credibility problem for Congress, which spends months demanding testimony and threatening contempt proceedings only to allow partisan loyalty to dominate the questioning once witnesses finally appear. The committee releases hours of Clinton deposition video while providing searchable written transcripts for numerous other Epstein-related witnesses, making independent examination of the Clinton testimony more difficult and leaving the public increasingly dependent on selectively edited clips and partisan summaries. Instead of methodically comparing testimony with flight records, photographs, calendars, communications, financial records, and other evidence, lawmakers repeatedly turn the investigation into another battle between Democrats and Republicans. That approach does little for survivors and even less to explain how Epstein maintained access to powerful people and institutions for so long. Bill and Hillary Clinton should not receive harsher treatment because of who they are, but neither should political allies shield them from the same level of scrutiny applied to other witnesses. Congress claims that nobody is above investigation, yet the Clinton depositions raise an uncomfortable question about whether lawmakers are willing to apply that principle when the witness belongs to their own political camp.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.com

The congressional depositions of Bill and Hillary Clinton expose a broader problem with the House investigation into Jeffrey Epstein: lawmakers appear to apply different levels of scrutiny depending on the political identity of the witness. Democratic members repeatedly characterize the Clinton depositions as political theater and spend significant portions of their public messaging attacking Republican motives rather than aggressively testing the Clintons' answers against the documentary record. Bill Clinton's documented relationship with Epstein, including travel aboard Epstein's aircraft and years of social contact, provides ample ground for detailed questioning, yet the deposition often lacks the kind of sustained follow-up that would normally accompany discrepancies, failures of memory, or assertions that conflict with other known evidence. Hillary Clinton's testimony receives similar defensive treatment, with Democratic members appearing more interested in challenging the legitimacy of the proceeding than independently examining what she knew about Epstein and Ghislaine Maxwell. Republicans contribute to the dysfunction with irrelevant and theatrical questioning of their own, but that does not excuse Democratic members from their responsibility to conduct serious oversight. The result is an investigation that too often resembles competing political defense teams rather than a disciplined effort to establish facts.The Clinton depositions also highlight a larger credibility problem for Congress, which spends months demanding testimony and threatening contempt proceedings only to allow partisan loyalty to dominate the questioning once witnesses finally appear. The committee releases hours of Clinton deposition video while providing searchable written transcripts for numerous other Epstein-related witnesses, making independent examination of the Clinton testimony more difficult and leaving the public increasingly dependent on selectively edited clips and partisan summaries. Instead of methodically comparing testimony with flight records, photographs, calendars, communications, financial records, and other evidence, lawmakers repeatedly turn the investigation into another battle between Democrats and Republicans. That approach does little for survivors and even less to explain how Epstein maintained access to powerful people and institutions for so long. Bill and Hillary Clinton should not receive harsher treatment because of who they are, but neither should political allies shield them from the same level of scrutiny applied to other witnesses. Congress claims that nobody is above investigation, yet the Clinton depositions raise an uncomfortable question about whether lawmakers are willing to apply that principle when the witness belongs to their own political camp.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-epstein-chronicles--5003294/support.

All Home Care Matters and our host, Lance A. Slatton, were honored to welcome Susie Singer Carter and Don Priess for an important conversation about ROAR 4 LTC, the first-ever National Walk for Long-Term Care Reform, and the inaugural National Long-Term Care Reform Day taking place Sunday, September 27, 2026. This powerful discussion examines why long-term care affects every family, why the crisis facing nursing homes and long-term care can no longer remain hidden, and how families, caregivers, healthcare professionals, advocates, and communities across the country are coming together to demand meaningful change. ABOUT ROAR 4 LTC: ROAR stands for Respect. Oversight. Advocacy. Reform. ROAR 4 LTC is a national nonprofit movement dedicated to transforming long-term care through storytelling, education, advocacy, and public action. Born from the impact of the documentary No Country for Old People, ROAR seeks to make visible what too often remains hidden — nursing home neglect, abuse, chronic understaffing, inadequate oversight, and the devastating consequences these systemic failures can have on residents and their families. The movement is bringing together families, caregivers, healthcare professionals, advocates, students, organizations, and communities to call for greater dignity, accountability, transparency, and meaningful reform throughout long-term care. THE NATIONAL WALK FOR LONG-TERM CARE REFORM: On Sunday, September 27, 2026, communities across the United States will come together for the historic first-ever National Walk for Long-Term Care Reform and the inaugural National Long-Term Care Reform Day. The message is simple but powerful: "The power of the people is greater than the people in power." The National Walk is designed to bring the long-term care crisis into the public eye and give families, caregivers, residents, professionals, and advocates a collective voice. Participants are encouraged to walk, volunteer, organize, advocate, share their stories, and help ensure that the people living in long-term care are never treated as invisible. As ROAR says: Be a ROARior for our most vulnerable.

Together, they served as writers and Co-Executive Producers of the CBS series CAKE and DANCE REVOLUTION, as well as SURVIVING HAWKING and SILVER LININGS for Fox Television Studios. In this conversation with Lance A. Slatton, Susie and Don discuss the stories and experiences that helped inspire their long-term care advocacy, why storytelling can be such a powerful catalyst for social change, and why September 27 represents an opportunity for Americans to stand together for the dignity and protection of our most vulnerable citizens. Long-term care is not someone else's issue. It is a family issue. It is a caregiver issue. It is a healthcare issue. And eventually, it can touch every one of us.

The scariest part of caregiving is how quietly it starts, until one day you realize you're making medical decisions, managing safety, and carrying a grief nobody warned you about. We're joined by filmmaker, producer, and activist Susie Singer, who cared for her mom through 16 years of Alzheimer's and turned that experience into storytelling that doesn't look away.We talk about the early symptoms that don't feel like “normal aging” and the moment a simple cognitive test makes everything real. Susie gets honest about the common missteps many dementia caregivers make at first, like “testing” a loved one, then shares the mindset shift that changed everything: lean into their world instead of forcing them to stay in ours. We also dig into what happens when care moves beyond home, including why continuity, connection, and dignity matter as much as any medication.Then the conversation turns into a hard investigation of long-term care in the United States. Susie explains how her documentary No Country for Old People exposes nursing home neglect, understaffing as a business model, COVID-era lockouts, avoidable injuries like pressure sores, and the reality of chemical restraint, including off-label sedation with drugs like Depakote. She shares where you can watch the film (Amazon Prime and free on Tubi) and why she helped launch ROAR (Respect, Oversight, Advocacy, and Reform for Long-Term Care), including a National Long-Term Care Walk for Reform on September 27.Visit roar4ltc.org to find out more information. If you're an Alzheimer's caregiver, a dementia caregiver, or someone trying to choose memory care or skilled nursing, this conversation gives language, context, and a way to take action.

In this episode, Therese Markow and Dr. Daniel Aaron discuss the inadequate oversight of food additives by the FDA, particularly the agency's GRAS or "Generally Recognized as Safe" process, which allows unsafe additives to reach the market without proper scrutiny. Dr. Aaron highlights industry conflicts of interest, the lack of reporting requirements, the need for stricter regulation to protect public health, and discusses what is needed for the FDA to be better able to make impactful changes.     Key Takeaways: The majority of food additives in the US are not vetted by the FDA. Since 1958, food additives have been presumed safe until proven otherwise.  The Clean Eating movement in the US is indicative of the skepticism of the American food supply.  While the FDA used to maintain a list of GRAS substances, today, reporting to the FDA is not required.  Europe uses a more precautionary approach to food additives. The EFSA must approve all chemical substances prior to their use in foods.  Food additives are known to cause synergistic harm. However, the FDA poorly regulates single additives, so it is not surprising that its consideration of interacting chemicals is insufficient.   "The FDA is the most accountable to corporate power. The largest impediment, in my view, to food regulation is funding. FDA's Food Center has been underfunded for decades. Further funding from Congress is needed, but our legislators often are supported by industry that doesn't necessarily want a more robust review of food additives." —  Daniel Aaron, M.D., J.D.   Episode References:  Bystanders to a Public Health Crisis: The Failures of the U.S. Multi-Agency Regulatory Approach to Food Safety in the Face of Persistent Organic Pollutants by Katya S.

Anton Leicht, a fellow at the Carnegie Endowment for International Peace and author of Threading the Needle, joins Nathan Labenz to explore how political and institutional power can be preserved as artificial intelligence advances. They discuss the strategic trade-offs of frontier training pauses, the hurdles facing industry self-regulation, and how middle powers can trade data center capacity and semiconductor leverage for model access. Ultimately, Leicht emphasizes that preventing permanent disempowerment and the monopolization of control by private labs or single governments is just as critical as addressing catastrophic model risks.

Kenji Yoshino, Chief Justice Earl Warren Professor of Constitutional Law at New York University School of Law and a member of Meta's Oversight Board, joins Kevin Frazier, director of the AI Innovation and Law Program at the University of Texas School of Law, and guest co-host Kate Klonick to discuss what frontier AI companies can learn from the Oversight Board. Yoshino recently co-authored a Tech Policy Press piece with fellow Board member Ronaldo Lemos arguing that meaningful AI oversight should feature independent and representative overseers, external standards, and transparent, reasoned decisions.The trio tests that proposal against some of the hardest questions raised by the Oversight Board's own experience. Can a selective, precedent-setting institution provide meaningful oversight at AI scale? What gives a privately created board legitimacy to constrain decisions with global consequences? What powers would an AI oversight body actually need? And when does private oversight complement democratic regulation—and when might it merely give corporate power a new source of legitimacy?Here's the Tech Policy Press piece. Hosted on Acast.

CAPTION 1945 tokyo Oversight Loopholes in Saudi Nuclear DealHenry Sokolski outlines concerns regarding the unclassified but heavily redacted Saudi Arabian nuclear agreement. Government documents printed on September first reveal provisions for uranium enrichment up to twenty percent on Saudi territory. Crucially, the agreement limits atomic inspections to declared sites, presenting a loophole for covert parallel operations. Sokolski also addresses Iran's war crime accusations against the United States following a fatal off-target missile strike near the Strait of Hormuz. He attributes such tragic military targeting errors to outdated intelligence and the misuse of artificial intelligence to accelerate high-stakes decision-making in active war zones. (7)

MeidasTouch host Ben Meiselas reports on House Speaker Mike Johnson abruptly canceling the final two scheduled weeks of House votes in September, sending members home with only four legislative days remaining before the midterm elections. The stunning reversal comes just days after Johnson insisted Republicans would work throughout September, and amid intensifying scrutiny of Donald Trump and renewed efforts in Congress to investigate his conduct.
