The billionaire David Sullivan has been accused of sexually exploitative and predatory behaviour by several women dating back to the 1980s. In a joint investigation with the BBC, The Times has spoken to seven women about their experiences. In his statement on 4 June, Sullivan announced his immediate resignation as joint-chair and director of West Ham, saying the “false allegations” had been “sensationalised” and none related to his time in football. He added: “After a lifetime spent building businesses in the adult industry in which I have met thousands of women, it is sadly inevitable that a small number of improper conduct claims are being made against me. I categorically deny these claims.” Before publication, Sullivan said that he reserved his legal rights in relation to “false or defamatory allegations” and would not be commenting further at this stage.This podcast was brought to you thanks to the support of readers of The Times and The Sunday Times.

Many recruiting services, profile websites and showcase camps profit by keeping families engaged and spending money rather than helping athletes achieve meaningful recruiting outcomes, said Reid Meyer, co-founder of A2A Academy and a former college baseball player. To be successfully recruited, athletes need to be proactive, directly contacting coaches and focusing on finding colleges that fit their academic, athletic, financial and personal goals, he said.

The incredible NACA mortgage allows NACA Members to purchase their homes with the following: Below is a structured summary of the Bruce Marks interview with Rushion McDonald on Money Making Conversations Masterclass, based entirely on the interview transcript you provided. All points and quotes are drawn from that source. Interview Summary Bruce Marks, founder and CEO of NACA (Neighborhood Assistance Corporation of America), joins Rushion McDonald to discuss his four-decade mission to make affordable homeownership accessible to working families, particularly those historically excluded from the housing market. Marks explains how NACA fights predatory lending while simultaneously offering what he calls “the best mortgage in America”—characterized by no down payment, no closing costs, no fees, low fixed interest rates, and no reliance on credit scores. The conversation highlights NACA’s innovative programs, including converting Section 8 housing vouchers into mortgage payments, the $1 Homeownership Program for vacant properties, and large-scale, community-based homebuying events that process thousands of families in days rather than months. Marks frames homeownership as a tool for wealth-building, community stability, crime reduction, and racial equity. Purpose of the Interview The purpose of the interview is threefold: Educate listeners about alternative paths to homeownership that defy traditional mortgage industry norms. Challenge myths about credit scores, Section 8 recipients, and affordability. Promote NACA’s model as a scalable, nationwide solution to the housing affordability crisis and racial wealth gap. Key Takeaways 1. NACA’s Mortgage Model Is Radically Different No down payment No closing costs or fees Below-market, fixed interest rates Credit scores are not used; lending is based on payment history and financial behavior. 2. Predatory Lending Targets Vulnerable Communities Marks defines predatory lending as mortgages “structured to fail”, citing the 2008 housing crisis as a direct result of unaffordable loan structures that later doubled or tripled payments. 3. Section 8 as a Pathway to Ownership and Wealth NACA enables families to apply their Section 8 Housing Choice Vouchers toward mortgage payments, allowing renters to build equity instead of enriching landlords. Over a 20‑year term, this can result in $200,000–$300,000 in personal wealth. 4. The $1 Homeownership Program Is a Game Changer Cities sell vacant homes or lots to buyers for $1, while NACA finances renovation or new modular construction—cutting costs by eliminating developers and enabling homes to be built for roughly $120,000 total. 5. Scale and Impact Matter NACA operates in all 50 states Newark event drew 25,000+ people over five days Over 75,000 homeowners served Foreclosure rate: 0.00012. Notable Quotes from Bruce Marks “We have the best mortgage in the country.”. “Predatory lending is a mortgage that is structured to fail.”. “What you’re doing is the wealth is now going to the person with a Section 8, not to the landlord.”. “We do character-based lending, never looking at someone’s credit score.”. “Homeownership is a safety issue, it’s an anti-crime issue.” Bottom Line The interview positions Bruce Marks and NACA as disruptors of the traditional mortgage industry, proving that affordability, scale, and advocacy can coexist. The message is clear: homeownership should be a right earned through responsibility and support—not a privilege restricted by wealth, credit scores, or predatory systems.. #SHMS #BEST #STRAW Support the show: https://www.steveharveyfm.com/See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

What drives a compulsive offender to suddenly alter their signature behaviors and shift target demographics? This episode explores the psychological mechanisms behind "predatory drift," detailing how evolving violent fantasies alter a serial killer's behavioral patterns over time. We dissect the cognitive adaptations, personality disorders, and neural compulsions that allow unhinged predators to modify their hunting methodologies and evade psychological profiling.

Gugs Mhlungu is joined by Erin Torkelson, Senior Lecturer in the Department of Geography at the University of the Western Cape, discussing her recent book exploring how social grants, intended to alleviate poverty, can inadvertently trap some poor South Africans in cycles of debt. They unpack how deductions linked to loans, airtime, and funeral cover, often taken out without clear consent, can deepen financial vulnerability and reinforce economic inequality.

How does an industry avoid accountability for decades while carrying tens of millions of passengers a year? It spends $70 million lobbying Congress. It hires former FBI and Coast Guard officials. It registers ships abroad to dodge U.S. taxes and jurisdiction. It fights reform legislation and wins. It settles lawsuits behind NDAs. And it issues identical zero-tolerance statements every time a crew member is caught. This final episode of Cruising with Predators names the machine. The money trail, the revolving door, the CVSSA's limitations, and the foreign-flag shield are all laid bare. Then the reforms: device screening, an international registry, prosecution before deportation, independent investigations, ending NDAs in cases involving minors, and licensing standards for youth programs. Each tied to a case from this series. The industry built this system. Families can demand it be rebuilt.

Master keycards that open every cabin. Youth centers without standardized staffing ratios. Background checks limited to whatever foreign governments provide. No international offender registry. No mandatory device screening. This is the access structure parents are not being told about — the gap between the safety the cruise industry markets and the screening that actually exists. According to a Congressional report, one-third of cruise ship assault survivors were minors. Maritime law firms confirm approximately one-third of their cases involve children. The highest-risk location for crew-on-child incidents: the guest cabin. Parents step out believing a locked door is enough. It is not enough when the crew member has a master key. The industry says it has strict policies. Those policies are self-created, self-enforced, and not independently audited.

Why do some serial offenders suddenly abandon one hunting ground and reappear hundreds of miles away years later? In this deep forensic investigation, we examine the phenomenon of “predatory drift” — the geographic and psychological migration patterns of violent offenders whose anchor points, routines, victimology, and operational zones evolve over decades. Drawing from behavioral profiling, geographic profiling, environmental criminology, and real cold case dynamics, this episode explores how killers adapt, why investigators often miss the pattern, and how modern forensic analysis is reopening cases once thought permanently unsolved.

Job seeking has become a full time job for many. And in an age where predatory capitalism continues to make billionaires richer while the rest of us struggle on the margins, the work of seeking work becomes a dystopian in-between place.

Psychotherapist Shavaun Scott brings her clinical expertise to an examination of the alleged behavioral patterns prosecutors have described in the case against David Anthony Burke, known professionally as D4vd. Charged with first-degree murder with special circumstances, continuous sexual abuse of a child, and mutilation of human remains, Burke has pleaded not guilty. His attorneys maintain he is innocent.Prosecutors allege contact with Celeste Rivas Hernandez began when she was eleven and became sexual when she was thirteen. They allege Burke paid a thousand dollars to maintain contact after law enforcement intervened, that he allegedly killed her when she threatened to expose the relationship, and that he subsequently ordered tools and materials under a fake identity — with forensic evidence reportedly tying those items to injuries on her remains. Throughout, prosecutors allege he maintained his public career and reportedly deceived those around him about what had occurred.Scott examines the psychological dimensions of the alleged behavior — what sustained contact with a child from age eleven allegedly reveals about intent versus opportunity, how the alleged escalation after law enforcement contact fits established behavioral models, and what the reported ability to allegedly move between extreme violence and public performance suggests about compartmentalization and psychopathology.Join Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

For those with Dark Triad traits, intimacy is not a bond, but a high-stakes con designed for resource extraction and ego gratification. This episode strips away the veneer of "romance" to analyze the cold, calculated mechanics of the Callous Exchange—a behavioral pattern where victims are groomed, used, and discarded with clinical efficiency. We examine how narcissism, Machiavellianism, and psychopathy converge to create the ultimate social predator who views human emotions as mere vulnerabilities to be exploited.

Jason and Michael Zuber discuss the negative consequences of current economic and social policies in Western nations. They argue that countries like Australia and the United States are using high levels of immigration to temporarily mask deeper financial mismanagement and housing shortages. They focus on progressive tax regimes in cities like Seattle and New York, which aggressively target the wealthy and drive away essential tax revenue. They assert that mobile capital will naturally flee predatory government environments, leaving the middle class to bear the resulting financial burden. Ultimately, they critique big government intervention and advocate for asset ownership as the only reliable path to wealth in a fiat economy.   Key Takeaways: 0:00 Why so many intellectuals are often left leaning 3:56 Australia is booming 10:46 Get your tickets to https://empoweredinvestorlive.com/ now! 11:05 Mayor of Seattle and the mobile millionaires 17:02 Mayor of New York vs. Ken Griffin 23:00 Spencer Pratt and the Socialist Republic of California  23:56 See you all at Empowered Investor LIVE!  May 15-17, 2026 Friday to Sunday #CapitalMobility #TaxRefugees #EconomicMigration #MillionaireTax #RealEstateInvesting #HousingCrisis #FiatEconomy #AssetOwnership #WealthGap #KShapedEconomy #GovernmentOverreach #EconomicRefugees #TaxRegimes #FinancialFreedom #StateTaxes  _______________________________________________________________ Follow Jason on TWITTER, INSTAGRAM & LINKEDIN Twitter.com/JasonHartmanROI Instagram.com/jasonhartman1/ Linkedin.com/in/jasonhartmaninvestor/ Call our Investment Counselors at: 1-800-HARTMAN (US) or visit: https://www.jasonhartman.com/ Free Class:  Easily get up to $250,000 in funding for real estate, business or anything else: http://JasonHartman.com/Fund CYA Protect Your Assets, Save Taxes & Estate Planning: http://JasonHartman.com/Protect Get wholesale real estate deals for investment or build a great business – Free Course: https://www.jasonhartman.com/deals Special Offer from Ron LeGrand: https://JasonHartman.com/Ron Free Mini-Book on Pandemic Investing: https://www.PandemicInvesting.com

With so much discussion about gambling leading to the May 19th Primaries Greg explains the difference between predatory and social gambling.

When we released Predatory in 2024, it drew a lot of criticism. Why would we include an episode where it didn't end well? The short answer is because it unfortunately proves the rule more than the exception. Many cases do not end well. Sin is intoxicating and hard to give up. For Dylan, he wanted the benefits of God without the relationship, and that wasn't going to work for Father Martins. In this revisit of the case file, Father Martins breaks down a very complex case and the bizarre psychological elements. How could a demon manipulate people into lust? Why would God permit that? Why did the demon remain dormant for so long before finally unleashing its attack on Dylan? Father Martins breaks down what dynamics are at play. Trigger Warning: This case file may be triggering to some listeners given the theme of sexual assault that is discussed. Listener discretion is advised.

In this episode of the Consumer Finance Monitor Podcast, host Alan Kaplinsky (founder, former chair for 25 years and now Senior Counsel) had the pleasure of speaking with Sam Levine, Commissioner of the New York City Department of Consumer and Worker Protection (DCWP), about the agency's evolving role as one of the most active local consumer protection regulators in the country. Important note: This podcast was recorded prior to DCWP's April 8, 2026 release of its proposed "click-to-cancel" rule addressing subscription practices. Alan recorded a description of the proposed rule which is at the end of the recording. We also wrote a separate blog about that significant development. A Local Regulator with National Influence From the outset, Commissioner Levine emphasized that DCWP is not simply a municipal agency focused on traditional licensing and enforcement, but rather a modern regulator tackling complex consumer protection issues that increasingly mirror those addressed at the federal level. "Local enforcement can be incredibly impactful—we're often closest to consumers and can move quickly to address emerging harms." He noted that New York City's scale and diversity make it a uniquely important testing ground for innovative consumer protection strategies. Executive Orders Driving Enforcement Priorities A key backdrop to DCWP's current activity is a pair of mayoral directives—Executive Order 9 and Executive Order 10—issued by New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani on January 5, 2026 (shortly after he took office) which we have discussed in a prior blog post. These Executive Orders signal a clear policy direction to fulfill his campaign promise to make life more affordable for everyday New Yorkers: an intensified focus on consumer protection, particularly in areas involving deceptive practices, hidden or "junk" fees, and recurring payment models. Executive Order 10, in particular, directs DCWP to prioritize enforcement against "subscription traps" and misleading recurring charge practices—laying the groundwork for the Department's subsequent proposed "click-to-cancel" rule published on April 8, 2026. Commissioner Levine made clear that these directives are not merely aspirational, but are actively shaping the agency's enforcement and rulemaking agenda: "We're aligning our work with the Mayor's directive to go after practices that frustrate consumers and undermine fair competition." Enforcement Priorities: Targeting Deceptive Practices A central theme of our discussion was DCWP's aggressive focus on deceptive and unconscionable trade practices, particularly in areas where consumers are most vulnerable. Commissioner Levine highlighted the agency's work in combatting: 1.     Hidden fees and misleading pricing practices 2.     Predatory lending and financial services abuses 3.     Worker exploitation in the gig economy 4.     Emerging digital marketplace risks "We're focused on conduct that distorts consumer choice—where people think they're getting one thing but end up locked into something very different." He underscored that transparency and fairness are guiding principles behind DCWP's enforcement agenda. Final Debt Collection Rules: A Significant Regulatory Development We also discussed DCWP's recently finalized debt collection regulations, which we have analyzed in prior blog coverage. These rules represent one of the most significant updates to New York City's debt collection framework in years. Commissioner Levine emphasized that the rules are designed to modernize existing requirements and address evolving industry practices, including the increased use of digital communications. "The goal is to ensure that debt collection practices keep pace with how consumers actually communicate today, while maintaining strong protections against harassment and abuse." Among other things, the rules clarify permissible communications, reinforce substantiation and disclosure requirements, and strengthen consumer protections in line with broader trends seen at the federal level. These rules, which go effective later this year, apply not only to third-party collectors and buyers of consumer debt, but also to creditors of consumers whenever the debtor resides or is located in New York City. Collaboration with Federal and State Regulators Drawing on his prior experience at the Federal Trade Commission as Director of the Bureau of Consumer Protection, Levine discussed the importance of coordination across jurisdictions. "There's a real opportunity for federal, state, and local regulators to work together and reinforce one another's efforts." He explained that DCWP frequently collaborates with the FTC, the New York State Attorney General's Office, and other enforcement bodies, particularly in cases involving multi-state or national conduct. At the same time, he made clear that local regulators can lead: "We don't have to wait. If we see harm affecting New Yorkers, we're going to act." Rulemaking as a Strategic Tool In addition to enforcement, Levine emphasized DCWP's increasing use of rulemaking to shape market behavior proactively. "Rules give clarity to businesses and protections to consumers—they're an important complement to case-by-case enforcement." He noted that clear rules can help level the playing field for companies that are already trying to do the right thing. Focus on Financial Services and Marketplace Innovation The conversation also explored DCWP's interest in financial services, particularly as new products and delivery models emerge. Levine pointed to risks associated with: 1.     Fintech innovations that may outpace regulatory frameworks 2.     Online platforms that obscure key terms or pricing 3.     Products that rely heavily on consumer inertia or behavioral biases "Innovation can be a good thing—but it can't come at the expense of transparency or fairness." Practical Takeaways for Industry For companies operating in or serving New York City, the message from DCWP is clear: 1.     Expect active enforcement of deceptive practices 2.     Monitor local regulatory developments, including mayoral directives and rulemaking initiatives 3.     Prioritize clear disclosures and consumer-friendly processes 4.     Anticipate continued focus on digital and subscription-based business models "Our goal is straightforward: markets should work for consumers, not against them." Looking Ahead Although our discussion did not cover it because it happened after our podcast was recorded, DCWP has since proposed a significant new rule targeting subscription practices—further underscoring the agency's commitment to addressing modern consumer risks and reflecting the policy direction set by Executive Order 10. Given Commissioner Levine's leadership and experience, including his prior role at the FTC, DCWP is likely to remain at the forefront of consumer protection innovation.

From losing over a million dollars in a rice business gone wrong to understanding the brutal reality of predatory pricing and foreign dominance in Ghana's food import sector, and why the harsh truth about entering the rice business is that you can't just walk in with a hundred thousand dollars thinking it's easy money because the moment you show up with your shipment the established players who own 12 brands each will scrub their prices down to cost price and even below just to frustrate you out of the market selling rice at 200 cedis when it's impossible unless they didn't pay duty or got the rice for free, the entrepreneur who faces predatory pricing where competitors intentionally lose money just to keep new players out of the market cutting prices so low that first time importers are forced to sell below cost and lose their capital before eventually quitting the business allowing the big players to raise prices again and recover everything they lost kicking you out, the business owner who warns that 80% of rice importers in Ghana are foreigners from the Middle East India and Lebanon creating a serious concern about food security when the country's food supply of rice sugar and other imports are mainly in the hands of foreigners not because they're not helping the economy or providing jobs but because no Ghanaian businessmen can survive in an environment where the people in the companies are robbing Ghanaians themselves, the realization that these foreign business owners have been here for generations and actually have Ghanaian passports and speak Twi so fluently that if you don't see them and only hear them on the microphone you might think it's a Ghanaian speaking proving how deeply rooted they are in the system, the imported rice versus locally produced rice debate where imported rice is cheaper than locally produced rice because the cost of production in Ghana is so high and all borne by the farmer while in other countries the government provides machinery fertilizers tractors and combined harvesters for free as grants supporting their agribusiness, the farmer in Ghana who has to pay for the tractor buy gasoline rent the combined harvester plow the floor and bear all those costs alone ending up with a product that's not even as fine but still highly priced compared to imported rice making it impossible for any rational Ghanaian consumer to choose local when there's Ghanaian rice at an exhibition selling for 450 cedis while imported rice is way less, the thought of growing rice in Ghana that died after research showed it would result in losses because government promises to help the agri sector never come and friends who own farms in Volta region get no help and have to call for assistance just to sell their rice, the shocking data that the entire rice harvested in Ghana is not enough to feed the people of Greater Accra for two weeks yet people still complain about not having buyers because it's not about demand it's about pricing since farmers spent a lot of money to produce and are suffering, the solution that would affect a lot of importers but could work if the government pushes an agenda for 70% consumption of local produce and 30% importation but only if the government also supports the farmers because otherwise importers would just quit and switch to farming to gain from government support, the threat to the economy when the people who control how much food comes into Ghana are foreigners who are helping the economy yes but building theirs even better sending all the money back to their homes creating a situation where if they decide they're done and leave Ghana will go hungry.

Online real estate platforms may seem helpful, but many are designed to sell your data — not protect your homebuying journey.Buying your first home often starts online, but most platforms are built to generate leads, not guide buyers.

Coco welcomes her longtime friend Tamz to Keep The Change to unpack a Louis Theroux documentary on “the manosphere,” described as online communities and influencers focused on male identity, framed around men “losing power” and regaining dominance through money, status, and control often at women's expense. They recommend watching the documentary (ideally with teenagers) and discuss how the featured figures monetize attention through livestream gifts, referral-style financial promotions, courses, and OnlyFans management, arguing much of it is performative rage-bait marketing. They highlight contradictions like demeaning sex workers while profiting from them, a “one-way monogamy” relationship, and claims dismissing women's inventions, while noting fatherlessness and identity loss tied to provider roles. They compare this to predatory influencer dynamics in women's spaces, touch on AI-driven economic shifts, and close with advice for women: education, asking questions, and maintaining financial literacy and independence (including having a separate bank account).00:00 Welcome and guest intro00:39 Why this documentary02:16 Meet Tamz03:17 Louis Theroux approach04:21 What is manosphere05:30 Teens and influence06:47 Predatory marketing tactics08:14 Performative misogyny exposed10:30 Three figures overview10:37 Hs Ticky Talky breakdown13:39 Family dynamics and fatherlessness16:25 How influencers profit19:20 Teaching kids media literacy21:29 Courses and reality TV effect27:11 Trad wife parallels28:59 Salesmanship and ethics30:20 Unbothered For Pay31:07 OnlyFans And Fresh Fit32:09 Farmer Belle Case Study33:35 Justin Waller Profile37:18 Women Sphere Parallels41:17 Dismantling Patriarchy42:35 AI And Social Shifts47:32 Smoke And Mirrors Wealth50:18 Why Manosphere Rising55:50 Financial Impact On Women58:57 Never Be Dependent01:02:44 Wrap Up And GoodbyeInstagram - Tamz Jade - https://tinyurl.com/u7npcymcTiktok Video - Myrone Gaines - https://tinyurl.com/fdw2yuz4TIktok VIideo Nara Smith - https://vt.tiktok.com/ZSHJhjGNC/ If you're after some more goodiesI have a FREE 5-Day Mindset Reset for you called  Wealthy Women WinYou can also follow me on Instagram

President Donald Trump wields American power like few leaders in U.S. history ever have. By imposing tariffs, threatening territorial conquest, and ordering military intervention, he deploys the United States' strength to assert dominance over friends and foes alike. Stephen Walt, a professor of international relations at Harvard, describes this uniquely Trumpian grand strategy as “predatory hegemony” in a new essay in Foreign Affairs. The central aim of predatory hegemony, Walt writes, “is to use Washington's privileged position to extract concessions, tribute, and displays of deference from both allies and adversaries, pursuing short-term gains in what it sees as a purely zero-sum world.” Walt argues that this approach may appear to yield immediate wins, but that over time it will erode the real sources of American power, leaving the United States “poorer, less secure, and less influential.” You can find sources, transcripts, and more episodes of The Foreign Affairs Interview at https://www.foreignaffairs.com/podcasts/foreign-affairs-interview.
