Send a textIn this show, the boys tackle a couple of subjects...Firstly, they discuss whether Democracy would actually be better and get things done if we abolished political parties altogether.Secondly, they discuss whether money has eroded and destroyed the current legal systems, so fairness is no longer right, but rather, who has the bigger funds gets the best representation.But what are your thoughts on any of these subjects? Do you agree with Tony or Tayo, or do you have different views?Tune in and listen to the discussion. Please let us have your comments on these subjects.Links used during the show:-https://www.geo.tv/latest/648830-gen-z-is-less-intelligent-than-previous-generations-neuroscientist-claims-https://www.ladbible.com/news/uk-news/football-firestick-premier-league-illegal-jail-259476-20241113?fbclid=IwY2xjawGhaXFleHRuA2FlbQIxMAABHQkBOWB8wSoMv5PMnoIxEN2aS80keta1-6u8pA_CjldMiXPWiHFMevfbiQ_aem_w1b4ONXRcKE_lVWUJ0u5MA-When people who have committed “real” crimes, like abuse of children and rape, are let off or released early from prison to allow the justice system to spend time and money investigating and arresting someone streaming TV.It begs the question whether the legal system is indeed corrupted or, at the very least, skewed and misguided.Although we much prefer effusive praise

Partisan inconditionnel des Canadiens et de hockey, le comédien, animateur et metteur en scène André Robitaille était l'invité de Martin McGuire et Dany Dubé dans le cadre du balado Bon match! enregistré devant le public au Gatto Matto de Boisbriand. Celui qui fréquente souvent le Centre Bell, qui enseigne également le jeu à l'École nationale de l'humour, trace un parallèle fascinant entre le hockey et le milieu de la scène. Pour lui, la gestion d'une équipe de hockey ressemble à celle d'une troupe de théâtre ou d'un plateau de tournage: chaque individu doit comprendre son rôle pour servir l'objectif commun. «Faire partie d'une équipe pour le même but, avoir son rôle dans l'équipe. Souvent, je dis aux acteurs et actrices que je dirige: à quoi sert ton rôle dans l'histoire? [...] Savoir gagner, savoir perdre en équipe, des soirs qui sont plus difficiles, des soirs plus stressants.» André Robitaille salue par ailleurs le travail de l'entraîneur-chef du Tricolore, Martin St-Louis, dont il admire l'humilité et la capacité à insuffler un esprit de plaisir et de solidarité au sein de la jeune formation montréalaise.

Trump launched an unauthorized, unpopular war with Iran, and Independent Americans host and national security expert Paul Rieckhoff joins MSNOW's “The Weekend” to break down what it means for our troops, our Congress, and our future.  In this special episode, Paul shares a searing on‑air conversation about three fallen American service members, Trump's choice to hit eight countries in a year, and a Congress that can't be bothered to hold an emergency session as a new war unfolds. He lays out why this is the worst‑case scenario of an unchecked Trump presidency, why the Constitution is failing as a guardrail, and why both parties—especially House Republicans—must finally step up. Paul explains how Trump is “all gas, no brakes,” wielding the most powerful military on Earth with almost no oversight—and what could happen if he decides to hit Cuba, Mexico, or anywhere else next.  He connects the dots between foreign policy, domestic politics, and public that's stunningly silent on issues of war as Trump keeps piling up the targets.  -WATCH full video of this episode here. -Learn more about Paul's work to elect a new generation of independent leaders with Independent Veterans of America. -Learn more about American Veterans for Ukraine here.

Show Notes This week we take a break from our regular coverage of G Gundam to return to a research topic that will remain salient throughout the 90s Gundam era: the violent breakup of Yugoslavia and the history that led up to it. In Part 1, Thom picks up the story during World War II, as the old powers of the world begin to come to terms with the increasing inevitability of a Partisan and Communist victory, and gives a proper introduction to the youngest of Marshal Tito's political rivals...

Broadman talks about how his frustration with local transportation issues first drew him into civic life, what he has learned about, and the importance of, the everyday realities of constituent service, and how those lessons guide his work in the state Senate. The conversation also covers major budget pressures facing the legislature and his priorities to invest effectively in working families and economic development. In addition, Broadman delves into central Oregon's front-row experience of climate change and why efforts around prevention, mitigation, and community preparedness can be unifying and bipartisan.Tune in to hear what grounded, local-first leadership can look like in today's political climate.  IN THIS EPISODE:  • [01:04] Background about State Senator Anthony Broadman and his political focus. • [02:30] The State of Oregon and how he navigates the current political landscape. • [03:36] His path into public service and what shapes his approach to governing. • [05:20] Find out what motivated him to expand his role to the state level. • [06:36] What the HR1 Bill means for education, healthcare, and public safety in Oregon. • [08:34] Explore his approach to building support to overcome the impacts of HR1. • [11:03] Senator Broadman breaks down Oregon's current political culture. • [12:55] The local impact of climate change and how the district prepares for it. • [15:19] Discover how he bridged the rural–urban divides about climate change. • [16:23] How years representing tribal governments shaped his view of leadership. • [18:39] He shares what he has found most surprising about the Senate. • [19:48] Learn why he believes hard debates can coexist with basic respect. • [21:03] Find out his approach to prioritizing tasks and managing his time.

Jeffrey Epstein's rise, protection, and long run of abuse cannot be honestly framed as a partisan scandal. He cultivated relationships across the political spectrum—courting Democrats and Republicans, donating to candidates, socializing with presidents and princes, embedding himself in elite universities, financial institutions, and think tanks. His 2008 non-prosecution agreement in Florida was negotiated under a Republican U.S. attorney, but later federal oversight failures, intelligence lapses, and regulatory blind spots spanned multiple administrations. He moved easily between Wall Street, academia, philanthropy, and politics, exploiting a culture in which wealth and access often buy insulation. The machinery that allowed him to operate—deferred prosecution deals, sealed records, lax oversight in federal detention, and elite deference—was not owned by one party. It was enabled by a system that too often prioritizes influence, reputation management, and institutional self-protection over transparency and accountability.Reducing Epstein to a left-versus-right talking point obscures the broader failure: a bipartisan ecosystem of power that tolerated, minimized, or ignored red flags because he was useful, connected, or financially valuable. Figures from both sides distanced themselves only after public exposure forced their hand. The revolving doors between government, finance, and academia, along with opaque plea negotiations and limited victim notification, reveal structural weaknesses that transcend party labels. When scrutiny becomes selective—weaponized against political opponents while allies receive softer treatment—it reinforces the very dynamics that allowed Epstein to thrive. Accountability, if it is to mean anything, must confront institutional incentives, prosecutorial discretion, and elite gatekeeping across administrations. The scandal endures not because it belongs to one ideology, but because it exposed a system in which power protected power.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:Epstein was invited to gatherings with a dozen members of Congress years after his initial arrest, documents reveal | The Independent

Yes, I'm a Democrat for now, but in most ways, I'm still politically homeless. And that's always obvious whenever I say or post something critical of both sides. Whenever I do that, undoubtedly, the vast, vast majority of people on each side refuse to accept the criticism of their side. We gotta be better than that. Hosted on Acast.

A conversation with Dr. Christine PetrinHealthcare is not a partisan issue.No better organization demonstrates this fact than Doctors for America, a national collective of 40,000 members: doctors, medical students, healthcare workers, patients, and retired physicians.And who better to talk us through their mission, than Past President Dr. Christine Petrin.In her own words, “Every time I join a DFA call or meeting or talk, it really energizes me. It keeps me optimistic. There's so many people out there that are facing the same fight as you.”— We spoke about the history, structure, and advocacy efforts of Doctors for America (DFA), how they transitioned from advocating for the Affordable Care Act (ACA) to broader healthcare issues, their non-partisan nature and inclusive structure, and the importance of collective action amid widespread policy changes.Follow me on Instagram and Facebook @ericfethkemd and checkout my website at www.EricFethkeMD.com.

Unifying a Partisan Nation Around NatureNature is Nonpartisan is a bipartisan, solutions-focused coalition working to unite Americans around shared environmental goals. By fostering cross-party support for conservation and land stewardship, the organization hopes to reframe climate action as a unifying national priority rather than a partisan fight. Establishing Nature as Middle GroundIn recent years, environmental politics in the U.S. have been paralyzed by partisan gridlock, stalling climate progress. Nature is Nonpartisan aims to break this deadlock by reframing environmentalism around common-sense values, such as safety, access to the outdoors, and community well-being. By engaging Americans across the political spectrum, the coalition seeks to depoliticize climate solutions and ground them in conservation principles that resonate more universally: protecting public lands, supporting disaster-affected communities, and ensuring access to clean air and water.This approach gained national attention in early 2025 when founder and CFO Benji Backer, alongside coalition members, briefed White House staff on nonpartisan conservation strategies. A meeting scheduled for fifteen minutes extended well over an hour, ultimately influencing President Trump's unexpected June 2025 signing of the “Make America Beautiful Again” executive order. The order focuses on conserving public lands, safeguarding wildlife, and securing clean drinking water. Backer underscored that wildfires, drought, and ecosystem collapse don't just affect the environment; they threaten billions in outdoor-recreation revenue and undermine the hunting, fishing, and farming traditions valued across political lines.Nature is Nonpartisan's narrative emphasizes that environmental protection is not only about climate, but also the American landscape, economic security, and the natural heritage millions rely on and cherish.Conservation as Climate ActionNature is Nonpartisan's work centers on four key conservation areas: managing forests to reduce wildfire risk, enhancing water quality and improving water infrastructure, enhancing natural disaster resilience, and promoting responsible land stewardship. Together, these priorities offer a practical, bipartisan path to protect ecosystems and communities most vulnerable to climate change.Overall, emphasizing conservation provides a widely palatable, bipartisan entry point into climate action. By restoring ecosystems, sequestering carbon, and protecting biodiversity, these efforts simultaneously strengthen local economies — particularly in rural regions dependent on recreation and natural-resource industries — while building long-term climate resilience. The Tension Beneath the SurfaceDespite its promise, Nature is Nonpartisan's work exists within a fraught political landscape. Environmentalism and conservatism are still often framed as ideologically incompatible, a perception the organization works actively to undo. While the “Make America Beautiful Again” executive order signals progress, critics argue it may be more symbolic than substantive, especially given President Trump's longstanding dismissal of climate science. Some fear the order could serve more as a political performance than a genuine environmental advancement.These tensions point to the broader challenge: decades of conservative skepticism toward climate science have made it difficult to ensure follow-through on policy. Nature is Nonpartisan hopes to continue confronting this distrust by reframing environmental protection around nationally shared values — family, future generations, clean water, clean air, and access to the outdoors — whether one is a Midwestern farmworker or a city resident.The Power of Words and Bipartisan PolicyCommunications Director Amelia Joy emphasizes that language is crucial to keeping these efforts genuinely nonpartisan. Because the word “climate” has become politically charged, Nature is Nonpartisan often avoids leading with it. Instead, Joy notes that many of the organization's core priorities, from wildfire prevention to natural disaster resilience, are climate issues, but by centering them in everyday terms, the coalition can build durable, cross-party support that can outlast any single administration.Policy Director Maya Cohn adds that progress doesn't have to depend on who is in office. She emphasizes that policy advances can happen under any president or Congress if people are willing to work across political lines. For her, bridging divides and having honest conversations, even with those you disagree with, is the only way to create long-lasting environmental solutions.About the GuestsAmelia Joy is the Communications Director at Nature is Nonpartisan and identifies as Conservative.

WXPR News for 2-10-26

When outrage becomes the default setting, thinking gets outsourced to the loudest tribe. We invited Substack writer and teacher David Dennison to help map a way back to clear thought, using real-world examples to show how independent journalism can resist the dopamine rush of instant certainty and invite deeper inquiry instead.We start with the state of media: why partisanship sells, how predictable framing keeps audiences hooked, and what reader-supported platforms like Substack make possible. David unpacks how dissenting takes can live without an editor's gatekeeping, and how basic tools—public statutes, Google, even ChatGPT—let anyone verify claims before a narrative hardens. A fast-moving Minnesota incident becomes a case study in how rapid storylines outpace facts, why legal context matters for public judgment, and how speed can erase nuance when lives and policies are at stake.From there we tackle immigration and identity. We separate humane admissions from willful evasion, argue for policy that acknowledges real invitations and real risks, and push back on the false binary of open versus closed borders. On race and identity politics, we revisit the cost of insulating weak arguments with moral intimidation, and make a case for liberal principles: free inquiry, evidence-first claims, and respect for both progress made and work unfinished. Finally, we talk about classrooms as places to teach, not recruit, and why safeguarding neutral learning protects trust and helps students build durable judgment in a noisy world.If you crave analysis that prizes clarity over team colors, this conversation is for you. Subscribe to The Common Bridge on Substack, share this episode with a friend who values nuance, and leave a review to help others find thoughtful, independent voices.Support the showEngage the conversation on Substack at The Common Bridge!

1. United Nations Funding Crisis The United Nations is facing financial collapse because the United States has reduced or withdrawn funding. This is a move to stop funding “woke” & ideological programs. The UN is ineffective, bureaucratic, and overly dependent on U.S. taxpayer money. Symbolic examples (turned-off escalators, reduced heating) are used to emphasize desperation and mismanagement. The U.S. withdrew from 66 international organizations and treaties, framed as: Cost-saving Anti-globalist Pro-American sovereignty Many of these organizations are described as obscure, wasteful, or hostile to U.S. interests. The underlying message is that global institutions dilute U.S. power without delivering value. 2. Media Merger and National Security Concerns Focus shifts to a major media merger (Netflix / Warner Bros / Paramount context). Concerns raised include: Foreign influence, especially money from the Middle East or China National security implications Loss of American cultural control The argument is that entertainment media shapes public perception more than news. Hollywood and major streaming platforms are portrayed as: Predominantly left-wing Hostile to conservative viewpoints Engaged in ideological indoctrination Executives are challenged on whether their content fairly represents conservatives. The inability to name conservative-oriented programming is used as evidence of bias. The merger is framed as dangerous because it could: Concentrate cultural and political influence Amplify a single ideological viewpoint The Department of Justice and FCC are identified as key gatekeepers. The timeline for approval is described as months to years, with high stakes for media freedom. 3. Save America Act (Voter ID Legislation) Proof of U.S. citizenship to register to vote Photo ID to vote The bill is common-sense and widely supported, including among minority voters. Democrats, particularly Chuck Schumer, are accused of: Using “Jim Crow” rhetoric to scare voters Ignoring polling that shows broad support for voter ID Opposition is attributed to: Desire to preserve election vulnerabilities Partisan strategy rather than public opinion Ballot harvesting is described as inherently vulnerable to abuse. Examples (nursing homes, paid operatives) are used to argue: Elderly and vulnerable voters can be exploited Ballots can be selectively discarded The Carter–Baker Commission is cited to legitimize these concerns. Acknowledges internal Republican resistance and logistical challenges. Emphasizes urgency and political pressure as tools to pass the bill. Please Hit Subscribe to this podcast Right Now.

This has been a crucial year for US energy policy. The passage of the One Big Beautiful Bill Act eliminated many of the clean energy incentives that were centerpieces of Biden-era climate policy.  The rollback of key climate provisions from the Inflation Reduction Act led to contentious debate over America's energy future. With so many shifting priorities and questions around the direction and the pace of the energy transition, it's unclear what 2026 will bring. So how are policymakers facing these challenges and working to accelerate clean energy deployment in a shifting political environment? What does pragmatic energy policy look like in an era of deep partisanship? And what should the policy response be to rising electricity demand and costs in the United States? Today on the show, we're revisiting a conversation that Jason Bordoff had back in September with Illinois Congressman Sean Casten. They discussed the state of clean energy deployment in the US. Congressman Casten represents Chicago's western suburbs and serves on both the House Financial Services Committee and the Joint Economic Committee. He's also vice chair of the Sustainable Energy and Environment Coalition. Before entering Congress, Rep. Casten was a clean energy entrepreneur and consultant, serving as CEO of Turbosteam Corporation and as founding chairman of the Northeast CHP Initiative.

We know from both Jewish and secular sources, that 2,500 years ago the Babylonians led by Nevuchadnezar, besieged Jerusalem on this day. Two years later the Temple was destroyed. But what events led to this moment?

PREVIEW — Elizabeth Peek — Trump's Embrace of AI and Crypto Viewed as Essential Against China. Peek defends Donald Trump's strategic alignment with cryptocurrency and artificial intelligence technology sectors against partisan criticism characterizing this relationship as favoring billionaire elites over working-class economic interests. Peek argues that American technological leadership in AI is strategically critical to national security and economic competitiveness; ceding dominance in artificial intelligence development to China would allow Beijing to establish global technological standards and dictate the future architectural framework governing digital civilization. Peek contends that Americaninnovation leadership in transformative technologies represents essential rather than ancillary to working-class prosperity. 1870

Donate (no account necessary) | Subscribe (account required) Join Bryan Dean Wright, former CIA Operations Officer, as he dives into today's top stories shaping America and the world. In this episode of The Wright Report, Bryan breaks down the fierce political battles inside Washington over healthcare, immigration, and the courts. He then turns to global flashpoints involving the Muslim Brotherhood, Ukraine, foreign propaganda campaigns, and a surprising development involving Italian pasta. Healthcare Fight Intensifies: President Trump is preparing to release his updated plan for America's health insurance marketplace. Early details include extending Obamacare subsidies for two more years, with tighter income eligibility rules and minimum premium requirements. The White House will also expand Health Savings Accounts and allow federal assistance to be used for faith-based HealthShare programs. Republicans fear voter backlash if a fix is not delivered before the midterms. At the same time, critics warn that the extension will add around fifty billion dollars per year to the national debt. Bryan notes the frustration felt by many listeners facing soaring premiums, including his own fifty-four percent increase. Immigration Battle Escalates: DHS is recruiting "deportation judges" with salaries up to $200,000 and significant bonuses. The administration hopes to replace immigration judges with high asylum approval rates, particularly in cities like San Francisco, where twelve Democrat appointed judges have already been removed. Trump is prioritizing faster removals for millions of pending asylum cases. Meanwhile, the fight over Somali welfare fraud has led the White House to rescind long-standing protections for Somali migrants, prompting criticism from Democrats and activist groups. Representative Ilhan Omar mocked the policy shift and insisted, "We are here to stay." Courts Block Key Enforcement Tools: A Clinton-appointed judge ruled that the IRS cannot share data with DHS to identify illegal aliens, blocking access to more than one million records. Other Democrat appointed judges halted Trump's attempt to expand rapid deportations inside the United States for migrants who have been here for fewer than two years. Bryan explains why these rulings highlight a deeper partisan divide inside the judiciary and why Supreme Court control has become a central battleground for both parties. Sedition Charges and Military Discipline: Senator Mark Kelly and other members of the "Seditious Six" face investigations after urging military personnel to resist hypothetical unlawful orders from President Trump. Kelly insists he is exercising free speech, but Pentagon officials say retired officers remain bound by military law. Bryan argues that these calls to resist the President are politically motivated and undermine public trust in the armed forces. Representative Eugene Vindman is also under investigation for unapproved foreign consulting work in Ukraine after leaving military service. Comey and Letitia James Win a Round in Court: Charges against former FBI Director James Comey and New York Attorney General Letitia James were dismissed after a judge ruled that the Trump appointed prosecutor had been improperly selected. The Department of Justice says it will refile the charges and insists the statute of limitations has not expired. Bryan describes the moment as a tactical win for the defendants but not the end of the fight. Trump Targets the Muslim Brotherhood: The President ordered the State Department to determine which branches of the Muslim Brotherhood should be labeled as terrorist organizations. The group's history stretches back to its founding in Egypt in the 1920s, inspiring violent movements including Hamas and al Qaeda. Bryan notes that some Middle Eastern governments, particularly Turkey and Qatar, still support parts of the organization, and that groups like CAIR in the United States have roots in Brotherhood networks. Foreign Troll Farms Exposed on X: A new platform update revealed that many accounts posing as American conservatives or pro-Palestine activists are actually operated from Africa, Asia, and the Middle East. These users post inflammatory political content to generate clicks and payouts under Elon Musk's monetization system. Bryan urges listeners to be skeptical of viral accounts and to scrutinize sources. Ukraine Peace Plan Revised: Trump's proposed peace plan has been reduced from 28 points to 19 and now leans more toward Ukraine's favor. European leaders insist Ukraine must maintain a one-million-strong force, even as countries like Germany admit it will take a decade to reach 260,000 troops. Bryan argues that Europe's rhetoric far exceeds its ability to act and that Trump is correct to dismiss their objections. Italian Pasta Tariff Coming: The White House is preparing a tariff on imported Italian pasta to protect U.S. producers. Bryan jokes that listeners may want to stock up now.   "And you shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free." - John 8:32   Put a smile on your face and give joy to your taste buds… Give Masa and Vandy beef tallow chips a try today!
