1. Religious Liberty Commission A commission formed in 2025 to evaluate threats to religious freedom. It conducted hearings and gathered testimony from over 100 witnesses. Its final report was delivered to President Trump, outlining proposed reforms. 2. Healthcare Sector Implications The report recommends expanded protections for healthcare workers (doctors, nurses, pharmacists, etc.) who object to certain medical procedures on religious or moral grounds. Proposed actions include: Strengthening enforcement of federal “conscience laws” Supporting specific legislation (e.g., Conscience Protection Act) Increasing investigation and legal defense of religious rights The debate: Supporters: Say workers should not have to choose between their beliefs and careers. Critics: Argue this could limit patient access to services. 3. Military Implications Focuses on service members who refused COVID-19 vaccines for religious reasons. Many were denied exemptions and suffered consequences (e.g., dismissal, lost benefits). Recommends: Improving the process for religious accommodations Offering stronger protections for service members’ beliefs 4. COVID-19 Vaccine Context The pandemic is a key example of government overreach. Religious exemption requests were often denied Individuals were forced to choose between compliance and employment However, the commission does not call for banning vaccine mandates, but rather for more meaningful accommodation processes. 5. Policy and Legal Proposals “Know Your Rights” campaigns Hotlines and reporting systems for violations Honors/awards for defending religious liberty These proposals could be implemented through: Executive action Congressional legislation Legal challenges Please Hit Subscribe to this podcast Right Now.

Fifteen years after her cancer diagnosis, Sheila Dillon asks what role food could play in cancer treatment, prevention and recovery - and why it is still so often overlooked.Earlier this year, the Government published a new 10-year National Cancer Plan for England, aiming to save 320,000 lives and ensure three in four people survive at least five years after diagnosis by 2035. It's been welcomed as an ambitious strategy, yet some say it has little to say about diet. References to food focus largely on reducing obesity - by making supermarkets to monitor and report on sales of healthy and unhealthy foods, and expanding access to weight-loss drugs. It also includes commitments to improving hospital food for children with cancer, and introducing prehabilitation programmes via the NHS App by 2028. So where does that leave food itself - in treatment, in recovery, and in the risk of relapse?Featuring interviews with: Clare Doney, the clinical lead for personalised care for the Northern Cancer Alliance covering the North East and North Cumbria. Dr Giota Mitrou, Executive Director of Research and Policy at World Cancer Research Fund International Prof. Robert Thomas, head of oncology at the Royal London Hospital for Integrated Medicine, part of University College Hospital and consultant oncologist at Addenbrooks hospital in Cambridge.Produced by Natalie Donovan for BBC Audio in BristolResources:https://mywellbeingspacenca.nhs.uk/https://www.wcrf.org/living-well/living-with-cancer/cancer-and-nutrition-helpline/These links will take you to an external website.

What happens at one of the world's largest rheumatology conferences, and why should patients care? In this special episode of The Health Advocates, Steven Newmark is joined by Dr. Shilpa Venkatachalam, Director of Patient-Centered Research at the Global Healthy Living Foundation (GHLF), to discuss the biggest takeaways from EULAR 2026, the annual congress of the European Alliance of Associations for Rheumatology. The conversation explores why conferences like EULAR are so important for advancing patient care, how researchers, physicians, and patient advocates work together to shape the future of rheumatology, and why the patient voice has become an essential part of medical research. Steven and Shilpa also highlight GHLF's contributions to this year's conference, including two original research posters examining barriers to the early recognition of hidradenitis suppurativa and the unmet informational and support needs of people living with Sjögren's disease. Along the way, they discuss exciting emerging trends in rheumatology and clinical care, especially the increasing emphasis on patient-reported outcomes. Whether you're living with a rheumatic disease, caring for someone who is, or simply interested in the future of healthcare, this episode offers an inside look at how today's research is helping shape tomorrow's treatments—and why patient perspectives are more important than ever.

Manoj Pradhan returns to Top Traders Unplugged to explain why the forces that kept inflation and interest rates low for decades are now reversing. Drawing on themes from The Great Demographic Reversal and his new book The Unanchored Central Banker, he argues that aging populations, labor shortages, rising fiscal deficits, and the changing role of central banks are creating a very different macroeconomic landscape. The conversation explores why demographics matter more than many models assume, whether AI can offset labor shortages, and why central banks may increasingly be forced to choose between controlling inflation and maintaining fiscal stability.-----50 YEARS OF TREND FOLLOWING BOOK AND BEHIND-THE-SCENES VIDEO FOR ACCREDITED INVESTORS - CLICK HERE-----Follow Niels on Twitter, LinkedIn, YouTube or via the TTU website.IT's TRUE ? – most CIO's read 50+ books each year – get your FREE copy of the Ultimate Guide to the Best Investment Books ever written here.And you can get a free copy of my latest book “Ten Reasons to Add Trend Following to Your Portfolio” here.Learn more about the Trend Barometer here.Send your questions to info@toptradersunplugged.comAnd please share this episode with a like-minded friend and leave an honest Rating & Review on iTunes or Spotify so more people can discover the podcast.Follow Kevin on SubStack & read his Book.Follow Manoj on LinkedIn and Read his Book.Episode TimeStamps: 00:00 - Why demographics matter for inflation and central banks03:05 - The demographic sweet spot that lowered inflation and rates06:28 - Why labor supply is now reversing12:15 - Global birth rates and the replacement rate problem17:03 - The fiscal blind spot in conventional economic models20:31 - Housing, urbanization, and real interest rates27:03 - Can AI offset labor shortages?37:24 - Policy ideas to increase labor supply and manage aging45:40 - Why central banks may become “unanchored”50:40 - The tension between inflation control and debt stability54:49 - Could high rates trigger a crisis and force policy reversal?58:28 - Final thoughts on demographics, debt, and the future of inflationCopyright © 2025 – CMC AG – All Rights Reserved----PLUS: Whenever you're ready... here are 3 ways I can help you in your investment Journey:1. eBooks that cover key topics that you need to know about In my eBooks, I put together some key discoveries and things I have learnt during the more than 3 decades I have worked in the Trend Following industry, which I hope you will find useful.

The summer heat is here and so is a heavier load on our country's electrical grid. The U.S. Northeast, Northwest, and areas of Texas and California face an elevated risk of blackouts from extreme weather and overextended power grids. Combine the normal load increase with a sharp rise in expansion of AI data centers, digital infrastructure, and industrial electrification. Proponents of nuclear power say it supplies cleaner and more reliable energy than other sources, especially during extreme weather events. FOX's Tonya J. Powers speaks with John Kotek, Senior Vice President, Policy and Public Affairs, from the Nuclear Energy Institute (NEI), who says during extreme weather events nuclear can provide clean, reliable power, and explains how 'microreactors' are an important element of a nuclear future.

With the midterms fast approaching, Texas' top elections administrator is out the door. Who will be next - and what awaits them in the role?
Lara Moody (iFeeder), Dr. Yuntai Hong, and Leah Wilkinson (AFIA) join the Real Science Exchange podcast to explore the growing concern around vitamin and amino acid supply chain disruptions—and their potential impact on U.S. food security. Recorded live at IPPE, this episode dives into how feed ingredient availability influences animal performance, producer profitability, and long-term resilience across the food system. The conversation opens with introductions and an overview of the iFeeder report, setting the stage for a data-driven discussion on supply chain stability and its importance to the animal feed and food industries (00:00–01:08). The panel begins by outlining the mission of iFeeder and the origin of the resiliency challenge, explaining how the organization was tasked with delivering fact-based insights to quantify supply chain risks tied to vitamins and amino acids (01:08–03:19). The discussion then traces the report's development back to COVID-19, when widespread disruptions exposed vulnerabilities in sourcing critical feed ingredients and highlighted the need for credible data to inform policymakers (03:19–04:15). As the episode progresses, the panel walks through the data collection and analysis process, describing how global trade data is translated into meaningful, species-specific insights for producers and nutritionists (04:15–07:36). This foundation reinforces the importance of evidence-based decision-making across the industry. The Role of Vitamins and Amino Acids in Animal Nutrition Attention then shifts to the essential role of vitamin and amino acid supplementation in modern animal nutrition systems (07:36–09:18). While feed ingredients provide baseline nutrients, supplementation is required to support optimal production, maintain animal health, and ensure efficient growth across species. These findings align with broader research showing that consistent access to these nutrients is critical for maintaining livestock productivity and food supply stability. [ifeeder.org] The conversation further explores global production capacity, noting that many systems are currently operating below optimal utilization levels—raising concerns about long-term supply reliability and resilience (09:18–10:33). Real-World Impacts of Supply Chain Disruptions The panel then dives into the real-world consequences of nutrient shortages, using examples like lysine to demonstrate how disruptions can reduce growth rates, extend time to market, and significantly impact production efficiency (10:33–13:26). These disruptions ripple throughout the value chain, influencing not only on-farm productivity but also economic outcomes and consumer-level impacts such as reduced food supply and higher prices (13:26–14:31). Global Supply Dependency and Food Security Risks The discussion also highlights global sourcing trends, particularly the increasing reliance on imports for vitamins and amino acids—often driven by cost advantages (14:31–16:50). This dependency introduces new vulnerabilities into the supply chain. Industry research has shown that the U.S. feed sector relies heavily on a limited number of global suppliers, creating potential risks to animal production and broader food security if disruptions occur. [feedandadditive.com] Policy, Innovation, and National Resilience The conversation then transitions to policy and national security considerations, exploring how outsourcing production affects more than just agriculture (16:50–18:44). The panel discusses potential pathways forward, including the need to rebuild domestic capacity and enhance supply chain stability. Ongoing legislative and policy efforts are also highlighted, including engagement with Congress and federal agencies to address supply chain risks through incentives, research investment, and public-private cooperation (18:44–20:51). As the discussion continues, the panel emphasizes the importance of maintaining long-term momentum and ensuring sustained focus across political cycles, regardless of changing administrations (20:51–23:07). Industry Resources and Call to Action The episode also outlines available resources for industry stakeholders, including the full iFeeder report, summary versions, and species-specific subreports designed to make the findings more actionable (23:07–23:53). The panel concludes with a call for continued industry support and investment in research to better quantify downstream impacts on food systems and strengthen overall resilience (23:53–26:44). The episode wraps with key takeaways emphasizing that supply chain risks are real, collaboration is essential, and long-term resilience is critical to sustaining animal agriculture and food security (26:44–28:49).

In this episode, we'll dive into When the Body Breaks but the Policy Doesn't Listen.Disability insurance claims are often presented as questions of medical evidence, but the outcome frequently depends on something else entirely: how a person's limitations are defined, classified, and translated into policy language. The gap between experience and contractual definitions can become especially significant when insurers evaluate complex occupations, subjective symptoms, or functional impairments that do not fit neatly into standardized vocational categories. In this episode, attorney Nancy Cavey examines three disability cases that illustrate how these disputes arise and why occupational definitions often play a central role in claim decisions. She discusses the challenges faced by a river pilot with long COVID symptoms, the importance of "own occupation" language in disability policies, and the difficulties of assessing chronic pain and medication-related cognitive impairments within the framework of vocational analysis. Together, these issues demonstrate that disability claims are rarely determined by medical diagnoses alone. Instead, they reveal how medical evidence, occupational duties, vocational classifications, and legal standards intersect to shape disability determinations, and why understanding that process is critical when pursuing Long-Term Disability benefits.In this episode, we'll cover the following topics:One - Rolling, Rolling Down the River - How the River Pilot With Long COVID Lost His Unum ERISA Disability ClaimTwo - When Definitions Decide Disability - Why “Own Occupation” Is Often the Real BattlegroundThree - Don't Let a Disability Carrier or Plan Ignore How Long-Term Opioid Use and Side Effects Can Prevent You From Performing Your Own OccupationWhether you're a claimant, or simply seeking valuable insights into the disability claims landscape, this episode provides essential guidance to help you succeed in your journey.

The DEC hosted Diane Swonk, Chief Economist at KPMG, on Tuesday, June 16, at the MotorCity Casino Hotel. The discussion was moderated by Dustin Walsh of Crain's Detroit Business.
Malthusian Logic and the "Check" of Hunger. Guest: Patrick Scanlan. Scanlan discusses the influence of economist Thomas Robert Malthus on Victorian policy, noting his argument that population growth would inevitably outstrip food production. Malthus viewed famine as nature's "last most dreadful resource" to restore balance. For Victorian policymakers, this logic justified a refusal to provide direct aid to the poor, fearing it would encourage "imprudent" reproduction and laziness. They believed that without the "check" of hunger, the Irish would refuse to work for low wages. Malthus specifically viewed the potato as "too generous" because it allowed the poor to survive with minimal labor, bypassing the "civilizational checks" on population seen in other societies. Consequently, many British officials viewed the famine as an inevitable consequence of Irish behavior and population growth. This ideological framework heavily influenced the British Empire's preoccupation with maintaining a "work ethic" even amidst mass starvation. 51868

Infinite Banking has grown fast. Really fast. And with that growth has come a flood of practitioners, coaches, agents, and advisors all claiming they can help families become their own banker. Some of them are exceptional, some are undertrained, and some are simply using the Infinite Banking label to sell products they were already selling, with a new coat of paint. From the outside, it's genuinely difficult to tell the difference. Their Marketing is polished, and their credentials sound similar. And yet the person you choose to guide you through this process will shape a financial strategy that isn't meant to last a few years. It's meant to last generations. A policy designed today may still be growing in your children's lifetime. That deserves care. https://youtu.be/0jcJDFXixhY What follows is a set of questions every Infinite Banking practitioner should be able to answer before you trust them to design your system. These aren't adversarial questions. A well-trained, experienced practitioner should answer every one of them with enthusiasm, because they demonstrate exactly the kind of long-range, client-centered thinking that separates someone guiding a philosophy from someone selling a product.

Key Takeaways Whether a practitioner is actively practicing Infinite Banking themselves is the single most revealing question you can ask. Authorized Nelson Nash Institute practitioners have completed formal training in the philosophy as originally taught; using the IBC label without authorization is worth questioning. Behavior matters more than policy design. A good practitioner asks as many questions about your financial life as you ask them. Policy design fluency, company selection knowledge, and honest discussion of the first five years are all marks of a practitioner who knows what they're doing. Infinite Banking is one piece of a full financial picture. A practitioner who only sees the insurance piece is missing the rest. The relationship doesn't end when the policy is issued. It's just beginning. Are You Practicing Infinite Banking Yourself? This is the most important question on the list. Not "do you have a whole life policy." Most insurance agents do. The question is whether they actively practice Infinite Banking in their own financial lives. There's a meaningful difference between the two. An agent who holds a whole life policy primarily for death benefit coverage is still thinking in product terms. A practitioner who is intentionally capitalizing policies, taking policy loans to fund investments or opportunities, repaying those loans, and systematically growing a network of policies over time is living the philosophy. You can follow what someone's life demonstrates. Believing what they say is a different thing entirely. Bruce has been capitalizing since his father opened a policy on him as an infant. That's not a credential. It's evidence of a practitioner who thinks about capital the way the Infinite Banking Concept requires. When I talk about our family banking system, I'm not speaking in theory. I'm reporting what's actually happening in our financial life. A practitioner who truly owns this will go further than confirming they have a policy. They'll be able to tell you which policy loan they most recently funded, how many policies they are running, and how they think about repayment. The follow-up question to ask: How are you using your cash value right now? What did you most recently capitalize? If those questions produce vague answers, that tells you something. Are You an Authorized Nelson Nash Institute Practitioner? Nelson Nash developed the Infinite Banking Concept and wrote Becoming Your Own Banker. The Nelson Nash Institute trains and authorizes practitioners in the philosophy as he originally taught it. Authorization means completing the Institute's training program. It's not a license in the regulatory sense, but it sets a minimum floor of both knowledge and philosophical alignment. The IBC term carries a copyright. And yet many agents use "Infinite Banking Concept" or "IBC" in their marketing without the Institute's authorization. That raises a fair question: why wouldn't they simply get authorized? Nelson said that the only limit to Infinite Banking is imagination, but he also gave guidelines. The flexibility he intended has led some practitioners to strip away those guidelines entirely and declare that any whole life policy you can borrow against constitutes IBC. Bruce calls this oversimplification. It produces policies that look like Infinite Banking on the surface but don't function like it in practice. The design is there; the philosophy isn't. Authorization is a meaningful bar. It's not the only bar, and there are levels of competency even among authorized practitioners. But a practitioner who markets themselves using intellectual property they've chosen not to be authorized in is worth questioning before you go further. Are They Asking the Right Questions About You? Nelson Nash said it himself: behavior is more important than policy design. A practitioner who truly understands this will spend as much time asking about your financial life as you spend asking about theirs. If the first question you're asked is "how much do you want to put in each year," and then they produce an illustration based on that number, that's not due diligence. That's taking an order. Think about what you'd expect from a commercial bank. If you walked in asking for a $50,000 loan and the banker just transferred the money without asking about your income, your assets, or your ability to repay, you'd be alarmed. And yet that's what some practitioners do for people who are trying to become their own banker. The institution they're helping you replace operates with far more rigor than they're applying to the process. Or consider what you'd expect from a physician. A doctor who hands you a prescription the moment you name a medication, without examining you or understanding your history, isn't practicing medicine. They're taking orders. A practitioner who quotes you an illustration before understanding your full financial picture is doing the same thing. A practitioner asking the right questions will want to understand your income and how it flows, where your money currently sits, your existing insurance and protection picture, any anticipated income changes or windfalls, your tax situation, and your estate and legacy goals. And that's not a one-time conversation. A good practitioner commits to reviewing all of it at a minimum once a year, because life changes, and the policy needs to change with it. Can They Explain the Policy Design and Why? This section covers the technical fluency a practitioner should demonstrate. You don't need to become a policy design expert. But you should know what depth of answer to expect. Mutual participating company This is the non-negotiable starting point. Universal life policies, including indexed universal life, carry no guarantees. Whole life from a mutual, participating company is the foundation. Participating means you share in the profits through a dividend. A practitioner who is unclear on why that matters, or who offers IUL as an alternative vehicle for Infinite Banking, is not operating from Nelson's philosophy. Direct vs. non-direct recognition Non-direct recognition companies credit the same dividend regardless of outstanding loans. Direct recognition companies reduce the dividend on the loaned portion. For active Infinite Banking practitioners who borrow regularly, this distinction is important, especially when a loan carries over from one year to the next and compounds against a smaller dividend. Non-direct recognition is our preference, and it's one of the clearer signs that a practitioner is thinking about how the policy will actually function in use. Base premium vs. PUA ratio Paid-up additions, or PUAs, allow you to pour additional capital into the policy and build cash value faster in the early years. A lower base with heavy PUAs can look attractive on a short illustration. But a higher base creates a larger permanent death benefit and a higher dividend over decades. You can read more about how whole life dividends work and what affects them. That dividend compounds into more cash value over a lifetime. The deeper principle: a practitioner who designs defensively, minimizing the base "in case you can't pay," is building behavioral uncertainty into the structure from day one. A practitioner who helps you think about how much you can capitalize, rather than the least you need to commit, is operating from the philosophy. Over 40 years of consistent funding, the lower base policy can outperform. But the moment funding falters, and it will because life is not a spreadsheet,...

On Friday's Mark Levin Show, twice as many MAGA Republicans favor regime change in Iran as those preferring a negotiated settlement, with President Trump's supporters overwhelmingly backing the overthrow of Iran's theocratic regime. 51% of MAGA Republicans and 50% of all Republicans support the US installing new leadership there, while only 25% in each group prefer a peace deal. This contradicts the narratives from the Woke Reich. Meanwhile, for 47-years, we did not respond militarily in any real way to the Iranian regime's murder of our military personnel and civilians. The policy practiced by presidents before Trump was exactly as the isolationists, appeasers, and pacifists demand today and demanded before POTUS attacked Iran's nuclear sites last June and this February. He is the first president to take real military action. Putting aside different views of the MOU, the forever war was and is being fought by an enemy that believes in forever wars. We certainly haven't fought a forever war against Iran. The result: thousands of Americans maimed and killed. Later, Zohran Mamdani is an inexperienced young sloganeer who has accomplished nothing, never worked a real day, and acts as a walking communist manifesto spouting empty slogans about working people, affordability, and lowering prices while knowing nothing. The Marxist experiment is a complete failure that only redistributes wealth without creating it, propped up by prior capitalism. Socialist systems like Canada's are condemned for horrendous outcomes, equal misery, and lack of motivation, while capitalism is praised as spontaneous commerce that rewards harder work, innovation, and better service with success and inequality.

A 2021 federal law (Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act, Section 24220) mandates that all new U.S. passenger vehicles starting in 2027 must include "Advanced Impaired Driving Prevention Technology." These appear to be taking the shape of passive AI systems using infrared cameras, biometric sensors, and behavioral tracking to detect driver impairment and automatically intervene by limiting speed, pulling over, or shutting down the vehicle.While intended to improve safety, the mandate raises major concerns about constant surveillance, massive data collection shared with insurers and third parties, high rates of false positives, and the erosion of personal freedom in what has long been a symbol of American autonomy.Let's go through the details together.
