Investigative journalists Mandy Matney and Liz Farrell and attorney Eric Bland now have a fuller picture of the #SquiresGate case in Hilton Head Island after it went viral last week.  On today's episode, the gang talks about what it took to get the Beaufort County Sheriff's Office to fire off-duty deputy Master Sgt. Billy Squires after video emerged of him pointing his service weapon at four teenagers in his neighborhood on a Sunday evening while allegedly intoxicated and wearing part of his uniform over his regular clothes.  A shocking video depicts the kids begging for their lives and one of them calling out his mom had people across the spectrum and all over the world calling for justice. It took five days for the sheriff's office to terminate Squires even though many of his 11 policy violations were immediately apparent.  Mandy, Liz and Eric talk about what it took to pressure the good ole boys into holding one of their own accountable.  *Since recording this episode, Live 5 News Reported SLED Chief Mark Keel said, “At this time, there is no evidence to indicate the fire was intentionally set. SLED agents have preliminarily found there is no evidence to support a pre-fire explosion.” Referring to Circuit Judge Diane Goodstein's house fire.  ☕ Cups Up! ⚖️ Episode References “Deputy fired for ‘multiple' policy violations, Beaufort County sheriff says” - Live5 WCSC, Updated Oct 4, 2025

Girl bosses? Check. Overbearing mothers? Check. Politicians getting into sexy shenanigans? You betcha! Emily returns to Congressional Cemetery to pay her respects to one of its most (in)famous interns, Mary Ann Hall. From humble beginnings, Mary Ann worked her way up to be one of the most successful business women in Washington D.C. Servicing politicians, socialites, and the elite just blocks away from the nation's capitol, Mary Ann was making bank. The only problem was, her business was illegal. Kelley tells the terrifyingly true story of Julia Buccola Petta, a young Italian immigrant who tragically died during child birth. But when her body was exhumed years later, what onlookers found was truly shocking. Beware of freshly poured patios and take control of your life (or don't) because we're wining about herstory!

Jeffrey Epstein was a steady political donor for years, spreading money across both parties while cultivating influence. From 1989 to 2003, he gave more than $139,000 to Democrats and over $18,000 to Republicans, often in relatively small increments that added up over time. His contributions included donations to figures like Chuck Schumer in the 1990s and a $50,000 check to Bill Richardson's 2002 gubernatorial campaign in New Mexico. Beyond politics, Epstein also positioned himself as a benefactor in academic and cultural circles, with his foundations giving more than $30 million to universities and institutions, furthering his attempts to launder legitimacy and credibility through philanthropy.Epstein's financial ties also reached organizations connected to the United Nations. The International Peace Institute (IPI), a think tank closely tied to the UN, received donations from his network, prompting scandal years later when it was revealed the contributions were not fully disclosed. In 2020, IPI president Terje Rød-Larsen resigned after admitting to accepting Epstein-linked funds, even as he claimed they represented only a small portion of IPI's budget. Reports also show Epstein helped facilitate or influence funding for UN-affiliated projects alongside other wealthy donors, such as through connections with the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation. While these donations may not have gone directly to the UN itself, they highlight how Epstein used philanthropy and political giving to maintain access to power.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-epstein-chronicles--5003294/support.

Recent events remind us that political violence rarely ends with one act—it sparks more violence. Politicians then exploit that violence to score ideological points or to win votes. But too often, the spotlight skips over the men who actually commit these acts. On this episode of Revealing Men, host Randy Flood takes on a question [...]

Your financial advisor hates this bull market! Find out what it is as we talk the recent market conditions as well as the potential upcoming government shutdown, noting that while shutdowns once spooked markets, investors have become largely desensitized as they rarely have major lasting effects outside of government employees and contractors. Shutdowns have historically been used as political tools, sometimes causing GDP drag and reputational costs, but now often register as background noise. We also chat about seasonal and cyclical inflection points—like quarter-ends, tax-loss selling, and earnings season—that can drive short-term volatility. It's important to keep your perspective, recognizing political drama as a “circus,” and instead focusing on underlying market cycles. Today we discuss... Government shutdowns used to trigger fear in markets but now typically cause little more than short-term noise. Politicians increasingly use shutdowns as leverage tools in budget negotiations rather than genuine fiscal concerns. Past shutdowns have shown temporary GDP drag but very little lasting structural harm to markets. Markets tend to quickly recover after shutdown drama fades, reinforcing investor desensitization. The real drivers of volatility now are cyclical factors like quarter-end portfolio adjustments and tax-loss harvesting. Earnings season consistently creates inflection points for markets, often outweighing political headlines. Seasonal forces can exaggerate short-term market swings, particularly in September and October. Positioning between defensive stocks and growth stocks is more critical for risk management than reacting to shutdown fears. Broader global market trends often matter more than U.S. political events. U.S. small-cap stocks have underperformed compared to large caps and international equities, reflecting structural weaknesses. Investors should focus on long-term positioning rather than reacting to short-lived shutdown volatility. Shutdowns reveal the widening gap between political theater and actual economic fundamentals. Short-term market noise from shutdowns can actually create opportunities for disciplined investors. Shutdowns are best understood as temporary disruptions, not trend-defining events.   Today's Panelists: Kirk Chisholm | Innovative Wealth Douglas Heagren | Mergent College Advisors Follow on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/moneytreepodcast Follow LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/showcase/money-tree-investing-podcast Follow on Twitter/X: https://x.com/MTIPodcast For more information, visit the show notes at https://moneytreepodcast.com/your-financial-advisor-hates-751

Gerardo highlighted tragedies abroad and political dysfunction at home—Republicans blocking Epstein file transparency, the Supreme Court greenlighting racial profiling, and escalating violence across regions. Nick reminded listeners that while the chaos is real, the design is to divide and distract. The lesson: focus inward—on family, community, and personal resilience—while tuning out the noise. Levity came via county fairs and Beaver Creek banter, but the underlying theme is clear: this Fourth Turning is intensifying. Stay level-headed.Market Takes - From Beaver Creek to Denver, sentiment is bullish. Attendance, deal-making, and even wine shortages confirmed we're in a real bull market. Gold set fresh highs near $3,700 before consolidating around $3,600—now likely a new floor. Silver broke decisively through $42, signaling higher levels ahead. Rate cuts and re-accelerating inflation are tailwinds, alongside central bank and even Tether buying. Copper, meanwhile, has rebounded sharply post-tariff reversal and continues tracking in a long-term bullish channel, supported by U.S. critical metals policy and AI-driven infrastructure demand. As Nick put it: “The charts are up and to the right.”Bizarro Banter - Headlines keep proving the name of this podcast right. Political violence, Epstein cover-ups, tribalism stoked on both sides—yet markets rip higher. Politicians provide theater while debt climbs past $37 trillion. The “cleanest dirty shirt” argument persists, but fiat erosion is by design.

Was Frank breastfed, like Krasner accused him of not being? How did Frank find out that Krasner was hanging around in that park? Who has more followers on social media, Surge or Krasner? 1250 - Your calls. Is Randi Weingarten intentionally dense, or does she really not see the hypocrisy between her rhetoric and her book? 1 - Senior Fellow, American Culture Project and School Choice Evangelist, Corey DeAngelis, joins us today.

Why does it make zero sense to go against the Teacher Freedom Alliance if you're against politics in the classroom? 120 - Bad Bunny will be the Super Bowl Halftime show.

Wrapping up the hour. 2 - New Jersey Republican Candidate for Governor, Jack Ciattarelli, returns to the show. Why won't Mikie Sherrill release her records?

How big are the new Charlie Kirk tee shirts? 240 - What will happen in Gaza? 250 - The Lightning Round!

On this episode of the Chuck ToddCast, Chuck looks at new polling showing just how unsettled Americans feel heading into yet another potential government shutdown. With 93% of the country agreeing that political violence is a problem and a majority believing we're in a full-blown political crisis, partisanship has hardened to the point where disagreement itself is seen as betrayal. Chuck traces how government shutdowns—once unheard of before 1980—became a recurring political weapon, thanks to Justice Department rulings, congressional maneuvering, and laws that reduced the political pain by exempting things like military pay and Social Security. The result: contractors left stranded, bipartisanship all but eliminated, and a system designed to fail.Then, veteran journalist for The Economist, James Bennet joins Chuck to break down Donald Trump's scathing U.N. speech and what it reveals about his worldview: not isolationist, but relentlessly self-centered, with his personal interest framed as national interest. Bennet warns that Trump's grip on power is existential for him and his administration, and if institutions like the Supreme Court allow unchecked presidential firings, the rule of law itself could unravel. From the Cold War's stabilizing influence to the fractures of today's four-party system crammed into two, Bennet and Chuck explore whether America can navigate its political turmoil without mass violence, and how drone warfare, refugee flows, and the collapse of the international rules-based order are reshaping global politics.The conversation also turns inward, examining how journalism has struggled to adapt in the Trump era. Bennet reflects on writing for international audiences, the dangers of catering to niche media bubbles, and why legacy outlets must rediscover local reporting. He argues that deplatforming Trump was a massive mistake that accelerated the collapse of resistance, while public pressure against platforming controversial voices continues to erode open debate. From Biden's misunderstood mandate to the Senate's paralysis and the rise of cult-of-personality politics, this episode considers what reforms will be necessary both in government and in journalism.Finally, Chuck takes a trip in the ToddCast Time Machine to 1974, when congress gave the Freedom of Information Act teeth, plus answers listeners' questions in the “Ask Chuck” segment.Got injured in an accident?

 Tommy ROBINSON - Opportunist, Patriot or Ill-Informed? (Part 2)         The Black Spy Podcast 211, Season 22, Episode 0003 The 150,000-strong anti-immigration demonstration in central London, fronted by figures like Tommy Robinson, is a striking illustration of how immigration has become one of the most polarising issues in British politics. The march's overt targeting of Muslims and people of colour underscores the racialised framing of immigration, moving the debate far beyond policy detail and into the territory of national identity, culture, and belonging. The demonstration reflects a public mood that successive governments have helped to shape. For years, both Labour and the Conservatives have flirted with populist rhetoric on immigration. Labour, historically more cautious, now walks a tightrope between its traditional working-class base—some of whom are sceptical of immigration—and its progressive, urban supporters who view migration as essential to a modern Britain. This tension often leaves the party hesitant, reactive rather than proactive. The Conservatives, by contrast, have leaned heavily into the immigration debate, especially under recent leaderships. Their strategy has been to present themselves as the only party capable of “taking back control” of borders—first through Brexit, then through high-profile but controversial measures like the Rwanda deportation scheme. While such policies rarely deliver the promised results, they fuel a perception among parts of the electorate that the government is fighting a cultural battle against an “influx” of outsiders. In effect, the Conservatives have normalised elements of the very language and themes echoed by street movements like Robinson's. This creates a dangerous loop: populist protests pressure politicians, politicians adopt harsher rhetoric to shore up support, and protests grow bolder in turn. The London demonstration is therefore not just a one-off show of force but a symptom of how deeply immigration has become embedded in Britain's political fault lines—and how both major parties, albeit in different ways, are struggling to manage it.

We explore how money has corrupted our political process and turned our economy into a casino-like system that requires many losers to sustain a few winners.• America's political system has evolved into an oligarchy where running for office requires millions of dollars• The financial barrier to political participation filters out average Americans and labor interests• Our "hamster wheel economy" functions like a casino where "the house always wins"• Both political parties serve donor interests rather than voter concerns• Artificial polarization keeps Americans distracted from bipartisan consensus on military spending and corporate subsidies• U.S. foreign policy in Israel-Palestine and Ukraine primarily serves special interests rather than American needs• The rise of counter-alliances like BRICS and simultaneous confrontation with multiple powers creates conditions for potential global conflict• Looking beyond partisan labels is essential to understanding and addressing America's structural problemsCheck out Jose's podcast "El Nino Speaks" and follow him on Twitter for more of his independent political analysis that crosses traditional partisan boundaries.Follow Jose Nino at ...His substack which contains the podcasthttps://josbcf.substack.com/Twitterhttps://x.com/JoseAlNinoSupport the showFollow your host atYouTube and Rumble for video contenthttps://www.youtube.com/channel/UCUxk1oJBVw-IAZTqChH70aghttps://rumble.com/c/c-4236474Facebook to receive updateshttps://www.facebook.com/EliasEllusion/Twitter (yes, I refuse to call it X)https://x.com/politicallyht LinkedIn https://www.linkedin.com/in/eliasmarty/

We talk with North Carolina State political scientist Andrew J. Taylor about his new book, A Tolerance for Inequality: American Public Opinion and Economic Policy, probing why voters often prefer public goods and tax cuts over classic redistribution—and how policy frequently tracks aggregate opinion more than pundits admit. Taylor also explores why blue-collar districts don't reliably elect blue-collar representatives and what that says about representation. Plus: the Spiel on the James Comey indictment—why prosecutors previously declined the case, how the McCabe leak finding undercuts the charge, and why this looks like executive retribution rather than justice.

Today's Topics: 1) Gospel - Luke 9:18-22 - Once when Jesus was praying in solitude, and the disciples were with Him, He asked them, “Who do the crowds say that I am?” They said in reply, “John the Baptist; others, Elijah; still others, ‘One of the ancient prophets has arisen.'” Then He said to them, “But Who do you say that I am?” Peter said in reply, “The Christ of God.” He rebuked them and directed them not to tell this to anyone. He said, “The Son of Man must suffer greatly and be rejected by the elders, the chief priests, and the scribes, and be killed and on the third day be raised.” Memorial of Saints Cosmas and Damian, Martyrs Saints Cosmas and Damian, pray for us!

The Epstein cover-up isn't just corruption—it's an insult to everyone's intelligence. The powerful trot out the same tired lines—“we're investigating,” “we didn't know,” “our hands are tied”—while survivors are still screaming and files remain sealed. Politicians pound tables for the cameras, the FBI pretends to be helpless, and institutions hide behind PR spin, charity donations, and crocodile tears. The arrogance is breathtaking: they think if they stall long enough, the public will forget. But the public isn't forgetting, because everyone knows this wasn't ignorance—it was complicity.At its core, this isn't just about Epstein—it's about a system rotted through with people who knew, who benefited, and who chose to protect themselves instead of the victims. Every sealed file, every redacted name, every “move on” excuse is proof that power protects power at all costs. The outrage won't fade, because truth doesn't expire. The longer they bury it, the hotter the rage burns. And when the dam breaks, every enabler—from politicians to royals to institutions that took the money—will drown in the flood of accountability they thought they could dodge.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-epstein-chronicles--5003294/support.

Rogers for America with Lt. Steve Rogers – I have frequently stated that some leaders in this country incorporate scripture into their political rhetoric to present themselves as devout Christians, yet simultaneously support policies that conflict with biblical teachings. Sometimes compromise is necessary; it is often better to get part of what you want than nothing at all, if it is not the worst part...

HEADLINE: Nikita Khrushchev's Miscalculation and the Specter of Berlin GUEST NAME: Professor Serhii PlokhyBOOK TITLE: Nuclear Folly TOPIC: Accidental War Warning SUMMARY: Nikita Khrushchev, a shrewd politician who succeeded Joseph Stalin, was widely misunderstood as a clown.

Over the weekend, Jeremiah and Brian go into the realities of America's rising debt and why politics alone won't fix the problem. The hosts challenge common assumptions about government spending, inflation, and taxation—breaking down how these big-picture issues actually trickle down to everyday households. Instead of waiting on Washington, they focus on what individuals can do now: understanding the real impact of debt, how taxes may shift depending on policy changes, and why relying solely on campaign promises is a dangerous financial strategy. Plus, Their conversation also explores investing in uncertain times, from opportunities in technology and AI to evaluating where future growth could come if the U.S. reduces its reliance on foreign goods.   Listen, Watch, Subscribe, Ask! https://www.therealmoneypros.com Host: Brian Wiley & Jeremiah Bates ————————————————————— SPONSORS: Ataraxis PEO https://ataraxispeo.com Tree City Advisors of Apollon: https://www.treecityadvisors.com Apollon Wealth Management: https://apollonwealthmanagement.com/ —————————————————————

Three politicians with ties to Muslim Brotherhood backed networks are Rep. Ilhan Omar, Rep. Rashida Tlaib, and Rep. André Carson. Each has embraced groups and causes linked to Islamist extremism while using their offices to push policies that weaken U.S. security, normalize anti-Israel rhetoric, and give legitimacy to organizations tied to Hamas and the Muslim Brotherhood.

How do you know when God is moving amongst His people? You'll see repentance, humility, and transformed hearts. In this sermon, Pastor Allen Jackson discusses God's movement and involvement in our lives. He teaches from the book of Acts to demonstrate the power, glory, and righteousness of God and how the world's values fail to align with the Lord's. It isn't just a battle over law and order—there's a spiritual conflict unfolding. We're watching as morality continues to degrade, but there is hope! When we stand firm in our faith and trust the Holy Spirit to guide us in His perfect plans, God will bring us out of the darkness and into His light.
