    Top Stories for January 10th Publish Date: January 10th PRE-ROLL: Kia Mall of Georgia From the BG AD Group Studio Welcome to the Gwinnett Daily Post Podcast. Today is Saturday, January 10th and Happy Birthday to Rod Stewart I’m Peyton Spurlock and here are your top stories presented by Gwinnett KIA Mall of Georgia. Affordability a top concern as lawmakers prepare for Georgia legislative session Srim Academy to host series of free seminars for young parents Christkindl Market drove 77% increase in downtown Lawrenceville visitors All of this and more is coming up on the Gwinnett Daily Post podcast, and if you are looking for community news, we encourage you to listen daily and subscribe! Break 1: EAGLE THEATRE STORY 1: Affordability a top concern as lawmakers prepare for Georgia legislative session When Georgia lawmakers head back to the Capitol next week, it’s all about affordability—or at least that’s the plan. House Speaker Jon Burns isn’t mincing words: “We’re laser-focused on making life affordable,” he said Wednesday, pointing a finger at property taxes for crushing the dream of homeownership. “For too many families, it’s slipping out of reach. We’ve got to fix that.” Meanwhile, Senate Republicans are eyeing income taxes. A committee led by Sen. Blake Tillery wants to nix the 5.19% tax for individuals earning under $50,000 (or $100,000 for couples) and eventually scrap it altogether by 2032. But affordability isn’t just about taxes. Rising medical costs? A mess. The end of federal health insurance subsidies? A looming crisis. Burns says the House will tackle health care, focusing on keeping doctors in Georgia by expanding residency programs. STORY 2: Srim Academy to host series of free seminars for young parents Srim Academy, a Montessori school in Norcross, is kicking off a series of free seminars for young parents—because, let’s face it, parenting is hard. Topics? Everything from potty training and screen time battles to fostering independence and getting kids to actually move their bodies. The first session, “Fostering Your Child’s Independence: Lemonade, Ladybugs and Learning,” happens Saturday, Jan. 31, at 10:30 a.m. at 5511 Williams Road. Expect 90 minutes of practical advice, hands-on activities (think crafts and cooking), and maybe even a few lightbulb moments. Led by Srim’s seasoned faculty and guests from Gwinnett Building Babies’ Brains, it’s all about building confidence—for kids and parents. Bonus: giveaways! Details? Visit www.srimacademy.com or call 678-808-9813. STORY 3: Christkindl Market drove 77% increase in downtown Lawrenceville visitors Lawrenceville’s first year hosting the Atlanta Christkindl Market? A total game-changer. Nearly 371,000 people visited the market during its debut season downtown—more than double the attendance from its Buckhead days, even with fewer open days. And here’s the kicker: 159,500 of those visitors wandered over to the Lawrenceville Square, boosting local restaurants and shops by 77% compared to 2024. Free parking, shuttles, and a glowing Winterlight Walk helped draw crowds, with visitors from 48 states. Downtown businesses saw sales jump 5–30%, and vendors reported 20–30% higher sales than the previous year. The collaboration between the city and Gwinnett County was key, with County Chairwoman Nicole Love Hendrickson adding, “This event showed what’s possible when partnerships thrive.” Lawrenceville’s officially on the holiday map. We have opportunities for sponsors to get great engagement on these shows. Call 770.874.3200 for more info. We’ll be right back Break 2: Ingles Markets STORY 4: 2026 Beer Chaser 5K Registration is open Whether you’re a speed demon or a beer-loving stroller, the Beer Chaser 5K is calling your name. On March 7, Suwanee Town Center Park transforms into a St. Paddy’s Day celebration with a twist—running, sipping, and plenty of green. This isn’t your average 5K. Sure, it’s a Peachtree Road Race qualifier, but it’s also a beer lover’s dream. Choose your adventure: run straight through or stop at five beer stations along the scenic Suwanee Creek Greenway. Each station features a different Georgia brewery, so your taste buds get a workout too. Not into mid-run sips? No worries. Every runner (21+) gets a full beer at the finish line. And the party doesn’t stop there—StillFire Brewing is hosting an after-party with live music, food trucks, and 25 beers on tap. Registration starts at $55 for the straight-through option or $65 if you want those beer stops. Prices go up Feb. 1, so don’t wait. Oh, and don’t forget your festive St. Paddy’s Day gear—there are prizes for best costume, best group, and best kilt. Proceeds benefit Kiwanis Charity, supporting local causes like the North Gwinnett Co-Op and Children’s Healthcare. Details? Head to SuwaneeBeerFest.com/beer-chaser-5k/. STORY 5: Lanier Islands Resort looks back at 2025, forward to an exciting 2026 Lanier Islands Resort just wrapped up a big year—its 50th anniversary—and it’s clear they’re not slowing down anytime soon. Recognized as one of Georgia’s Best Vacation Destinations, the resort is leaning into its legacy while planning some exciting upgrades for 2026. Last year was packed: a new chapel and garden for weddings, a free summer concert series, the return of Magical Nights of Lights, and even a lantern festival that drew 4,500 people. Oh, and they snagged awards from The Knot, WeddingWire, and GolfPass, among others. Looking ahead? A $3 million refresh for Legacy Lodge, a revamped golf clubhouse, and Georgia’s first lighted Par-3 course. Plus, new events like a Fall Songwriter Series. Big things are coming. We’ll be right back. Break 3: GCPL Passport STORY 6: Rep. Andrew Clyde announces 2026 Congressional Art Competition Hey, high school artists in Georgia’s Ninth District—Congressman Andrew Clyde wants *you* to show off your talent in the 2026 Congressional Art Competition. Got a creative spark? Here’s your chance to have your work displayed in the U.S. Capitol for a whole year. Submissions are due Feb. 20, and the process is simple: send a digital image of your piece first, and if you’re a finalist, drop off the physical artwork by March 13. The theme? Anything that reflects North Georgia—think landmarks, industries, or even your school. Accepted mediums include paintings, drawings, mixed media, photography, and more. Just keep it two-dimensional, under 26x26 inches framed, and under 15 pounds. Oh, and no copying or controversial content—this is about originality. Questions? Call Clyde’s Gainesville office at 470-768-6520. Let’s see what you’ve got! STORY 7: Gwinnett Chamber introduces Elevate Business series The Gwinnett Chamber is shaking things up with the launch of the Elevate Business Series (EBS)—a fresh, expanded take on their long-running Small Business Series. Starting in 2026, this revamped program is all about helping small and medium-sized businesses level up with sharper insights, practical strategies, and tools to thrive. Why the change? Simple: demand. Attendance has been climbing, industries are diversifying, and businesses are hungry for deeper, more advanced content. “Elevate reflects how far we’ve come—and where we’re going,” said Megan Lesko, the Chamber’s Senior VP of Membership. The first event? Feb. 24, featuring Media Frenzy CEO Sarah Tourville on strategic communications.

    In the first long-form episode of 2026, host Trevor Hall welcomes Steve Enders and Jasper Bertisen to discuss why mining investments frequently succeed or fail based on people rather than just geology. The guests elaborate on their research paper, which found that nearly 98% of surveyed investors agree that management quality is the dominant variable in driving portfolio outcomes, especially during difficult times. They identify two major red flags: a misalignment of skills for a specific strategy and ego-driven behaviors that surface when teams face stressors like CAPEX overruns or jurisdictional issues. To move beyond "gut feel," the discussion highlights objective tools like blind referencing and psychometric testing, which help investors identify if a team lacks diversity of thought or resists transparency. Steve and Jasper warn that while high metal prices can mask management "sins" much like high-grade ore does, investors must remain vigilant to avoid inefficiencies that are only exposed once the cycle turns.

Links for the Show: Fondazione FS Italiane National Railway Museum Strada dell'Olio DOP Umbria  Via di Linari In this episode, Kimberly Holcombe and Tommaso share insights from their friends who recently traveled to Italy during the Christmas holiday. They discuss historical train routes, exciting activities like driving a Ferrari through Tuscany, and adventurous hiking and biking options. Join us in this episode for unique ways to experience Italy beyond the typical tourist paths. Key Points: Christmas in Italy: Venice was less crowded than Rome during the holidays. Italian locals gather in Rome for Christmas, making it more crowded. Venice had crowds during specific events like the Santa Claus gondolier parade. Uber Black in Rome: Friends used Uber Black successfully in Rome, despite previous reliability concerns with standard Uber. Uber Black offers larger, luxury vehicles with professional drivers. Historical Exploration: Friends regretted not researching the history of Italian landmarks before their trip. Tommaso suggests spending ample time before the trip researching historical facts so they are better prepared once there. New Travel Options for 2026: Historical Train Journeys: Italy's historic railways, managed by La Fondazione FS Italiane. Binari Sensa Tempo (Timeless Tracks): Offers dozens of itineraries across the country. The National Railway Museum is in Pietrasara, outside Naples. The Christmas Market Train (Treno de Mercantini di Natale) runs from Sulmona to Roccaraso in Abruzzo. A day-long excursion from Torino to Canelli offers wine tastings in Piemonte. The train features Centoporte (100 Doors) carriages from the 1920s to the 1980s. Sommeliers offer tastings of regional wines like Barolos. Olive Mill Trains: Frantoi Aperti (Open Olive Mills) trains run every weekend through mid-November. Organized by Strada dell'Olio DOP Umbria (The Olive Oil Road). Visitors can taste fresh extra virgin olive oil and learn about production. Guided tastings led by professional tasters are available on board. The route runs from Arezzo to other Umbrian towns like Spoleto and Assisi. Promotes mindful travel and reduces carbon emissions. Luxury Driving: Drive a Ferrari through the hills of Tuscany. Prices are around 4,000 euros per day, or 2,000 euros per person for two. Multi-day excursions include high-end hotels. Adventure Hiking: Via Di Linari: An ancient 93-mile trail through medieval monasteries, abbeys, and a national park. The trail snakes through Emilia-Romagna and the Apennine Mountains into Tuscany. Best hiked in spring or fall, taking about nine days to complete. Sections are no more than 12 miles long. The website Camini Emilia Romagna provides detailed itineraries and accommodation options. Monasteri Aperti: Monks open their doors to hikers for hot meals on certain autumn weekends. Biking Expeditions: Flat, scenic rides connecting food capitals like Parma and Bologna to Venice. Explore historic sites like Ferrara, a UNESCO World Heritage site. Sardinia: Features rugged coastlines and routes for all levels. Sicily: Combines history and natural beauty, with cycling through the Valley of the Temples and around Mount Etna. Egadi Islands (Isola Egadi): Offers idyllic cycling vacations.

    If you're planning a trip to Ireland in 2026 these tips will make planning smoother, help you avoid crowds, and maybe even save you a bit of money. Probably the most important tips are when NOT to be in Dublin, but there are some updates to European entry & exit systems that you need to know, as well as really important advice for 2027. Jody Halsted – Ireland Family Vacations and the Traveling in Ireland podcast In case you're wondering why you would want to get your Ireland travel advice from me… My name is Jody Halsted, and I am an Ireland travel advisor. I have been traveling to and through Ireland for over 23 years (!!), publish Ireland Family Vacations, host the Traveling in Ireland podcast, assist hundreds of travelers with their Ireland vacations each year and, occasionally, I also host small group tours through Ireland (I have 2 this spring so you can look forward to some live from Ireland episodes in April and May). That's a lot! But Ireland travel is my passion; and my goal -100% – is to help you have an amazing Ireland vacation. And I have quite a few ways to do that. My website, Ireland Family Vacations, is a complete resource for Ireland vacation planning – filled with information on what to do & see as well as handy tips for planning your trip and free itineraries to get your plans in motion quickly. (Don't let the name fool you! I travel through Ireland solo, with my husband, with my family, and hosting small group tours. Whatever your group size or dynamic I am able to assist!) My itinerary personalization, vacation coaching, and custom itinerary creation services help you maximize your Ireland experience, and my small group guided tours are designed to not only deliver the ‘authentic' Ireland of your dreams but also introduce you to the people and hidden places that make the country so very magical. If you love the process of planning your trip the Ireland Travel Compass walks you step-by-step through my expert process, from when to visit and how long the perfect vacation lasts, to what to see, where to stay, and even what to eat. It's basically my entire Ireland vacation planning brain laid out. On a more personal note, I have 2 daughters, now in college, who have been traveling through Ireland with me since before they could toddle and one very supportive husband (who loves it when I plan other people's vacations because it means I'm not planning my own). At Malahide Castle (It's probably time to get new family photos done)By Aoife for Flytographer; Dublin, Ireland. All rights reserved. Now that you know all about me, let's jump into what you need to know as you consider planning an Ireland vacation in 2026! This article is based on Traveling in Ireland podcast episode 320.

In Case of Cancellation Read and understand cancellation policies on everything from flights and transportation to tours and accommodations before booking. If booking with a credit card be aware of the cancellation coverage you may have with that card. I highly recommend purchasing travel insurance if you book tickets our tours that don't allow 100% refund if cancelled. And always if you are booking a tour package (and not necessarily the one the company offers). 2026 Looks like Another Busy Year from Travel to Ireland from North America Irish tourism numbers showed that tourism from Europe into Ireland was down, but numbers from North America remained steady. From my perspective things are already looking busy, especially in the months of May, late August, and September. (The shoulder season is the new high season.) More Direct Flights to Ireland in 2026 Aer Lingus, Ireland's flagship airline is adding 2 new US routes in 2026, bringing the total to 18 routes from Dublin!This is important because Aer Lingus is considered a ‘budget' carrier. And when budget carriers enter a market, US based airlines will drop rates to compete.

John reveals an unexpectedly massive haul of Dungeons & Dragons books, while Ryan contemplates purchasing a PlayStation Portal. The conversation then shifts to industry news, where John and Ryan unpack reports of rising RAM costs and what that could mean for a potential PlayStation 5 price increase. They also discuss the recent separation of GOG from CD Projekt's corporate structure, exploring what this move might signal for the future of DRM‑free gaming and why it matters to players who value ownership and preservation. From there, the duo jumps into this week's game review, putting the original Driver for the PlayStation through its paces. They revisit the game's notoriously tough tutorial, its cinematic car chases, and the legacy it left on the genre, all while debating whether its current market price truly reflects the experience it offers today.   00:00 Introduction and Game Picks 09:53 D&D Book Collection and Value 19:53 Current Gaming Experiences 26:51 GOG's New Ownership and Future 30:10 PlayStation 5 Price Hike Discussion 32:30 Driver Game Review: Nostalgia vs. Reality   Want more Game Deflators content?

    It's The Ranch It Up Radio Show! Join Jeff Tigger Erhardt, Rebecca Wanner AKA BEC and their crew as they hear the top new year's resolutions for those of us that live at the end of dirt roads.  Plus record setting land and cattle prices from 2025, new additions to the program and where the price of retail beef ended the year all wrapped into this episode of The Ranch It Up Radio Show. Be sure to subscribe on your favorite podcasting app or on the Ranch It Up Radio Show YouTube Channel. New Year's Resolutions For Ranchers   We all need to have resolutions for the new year!  But what about the ranchers?  Here is our list for 2026: Thou shall finally return the borrowed farm equipment Thou shall keep better records, because apparently, a general sense of where the cows are doesn't count as inventory management. Thou shall reduce shouting by 50% while working cattle with the misses Thou shall check the air in the trailer tires before using it.   Thou shall confirm hand signals before backing up to any implement or trailer with the misses Thou shall make sure all ear tags will be legible and if I can't make them legible, I will assign the task to someone that can write legible.   Thou shall fill all fuel tanks on vehicles when they are down to ¼ tank. Thou shall not assume that everyone that helps sort cows knows exactly what I mean when I shout the black one when 253 of them are black.   Thou shall take the batteries out of the hot shot before working cattle of any kind.   Thou shall remember that everytime working with dogs, horses and animals of any kind at any time is a training opportunity and bad behavior is always rewarded with bad behavior. Thou shall realize that the neighbor is not out to “one up me on everything”.  If they want to get that new truck, let them and be happy for them.   Record Setting Land Prices In 2025 2025 was quite a year, depending on which side of the fence you were on per say.  Records being set in the beef arena of course.  Get this out.  Did you hear of the record $32,000 per acre land sale that took place in early December in Iowa?  Yeah, in Sioux County, near Orange City Iowa, 35.51 acres.  Brownfield's Brent Barnett interviewed Jim Rothermich, the vice president of Iowa Appraisal on the sale and the details.   Reference: https://www.brownfieldagnews.com/news/northwest-iowa-farmland-sells-for-32k-per-acre/   Record Setting Steer Prices The highest prices ever paid for 800–899 lb steers are concentrated entirely in the months of September and October, reflecting a historically strong fall market. Valentine Livestock Auction accounts for five of the top ten sales, underscoring its outsized role in setting record values in this weight class. Nebraska dominates the list overall, hosting eight of the ten highest-priced sales. Four sales reached or exceeded the $400.00 per hundredweight threshold, marking an unprecedented level for 8-weight steers. Pratt Livestock Auction stands as the only market from Kansas to appear among these records, while Hub City Livestock Auction is the sole representative from South Dakota, further highlighting the regional concentration of these historic prices. Highest Prices Paid for 800–899 lb Steers in U.S. History (1)  Valentine Livestock Auction  (Valentine, NE) — 68 head, 803 lb average — $408.50/cwt — September 4, 2025 (2)  Crawford Livestock Market (Crawford, Nebraska) — 72 head, 814 lb average — $401.00/cwt — October 3, 2025 (3)  Pratt Livestock Auction (Pratt, Kansas) — 109 head, 802 lb average — $400.50/cwt — October 16, 2025 (4)  Valentine Livestock Auction (Valentine, NE) — 129 head, 832 lb average — $400.00/cwt — October 13, 2025 (5)  Valentine Livestock Auction (Valentine, NE) — 66 head, 847 lb average — $399.00/cwt — September 4, 2025 (6)  Valentine Livestock Auction (Valentine, NE) — 63 head, 810 lb average — $399.00/cwt — September 4, 2025 (7)  Valentine Livestock Auction (Valentine, NE) — 118 head, 821 lb average — $395.50/cwt — October 13, 2025 (8) Hub City Livestock Auction (Aberdeen, South Dakota) — 72 head, 860 lb average — $395.25/cwt — October 22, 2025 (9)  Bassett Livestock Auction (Bassett, Nebraska) — 31 head, 812 lb average — $395.00/cwt — October 15, 2025 (10)  Ogallala Livestock Auction (Ogallala, Nebraska) — 15 head, 813 lb average — $395.00/cwt — October 16, 2025 Featured Experts in the Cattle Industry Kirk Donsbach – Financial Analyst at StoneX https://www.stonex.com/ Follow on Facebook: @StoneXGroupInc Shaye Wanner – Host of Casual Cattle Conversation https://www.casualcattleconversations.com/ Follow on Facebook: @cattleconvos Contact Us with Questions or Concerns Have questions or feedback?

    From 2026 travel trends and purposeful adventures to the weirdest etiquette rules of the past 100 years and the smartest things to buy in January—this week we blend humor, history, and practical tips. Join radio hosts Rebecca Wanner aka ‘BEC' and Jeff ‘Tigger' Erhardt (Tigger & BEC) with the latest in Outdoors & Western Lifestyle News! 2026 Travel Trends — Purposeful, Experiential & Flavor-Forward Travel in 2026 is all about doing less, but doing it better. Instead of cramming calendars with nonstop trips, travelers are prioritizing meaningful experiences, longer stays, and intentional planning that blends adventure, culture, and rest. Purposeful travel means choosing trips that matter—whether that's a family getaway, an outdoor escape, or a food-forward adventure that lets you slow down and soak it all in. What to Do Now If summer travel is on your radar, now is the time to start watching flights and hotel availability. Prices tend to reward early planners, especially for popular destinations. Travel Tuesday Tip: Shop for flights on Tuesdays when deals are more likely to appear. Pro Move: Use your browser in incognito mode to avoid cookies that can track searches and potentially drive prices up. Active Culinary Travel Takes Off One of the fastest-growing trends blends outdoor activity with regional food and wine experiences. Think hiking by day, local cuisine by night—travel that feeds both the soul and the appetite. The Weirdest Etiquette Advice from the Past 100 Years Good manners have always evolved—but some advice from the past now feels downright bizarre. A look back at etiquette rules from the 1880s through the 1970s reveals just how much society, parenting, and social norms have changed. Highlights include: 1880s: Women limited to one glass of champagne and expected to keep their hair up at all times—except in private. Early 1900s: Children were expected to never contradict adults and keep opinions to themselves. 1910s–1920s: Parents were advised to avoid hugging or kissing babies to prevent “spoiling” them. 1940s: Salt and pepper were inseparable at the table—always passed together. 1960s: The right hand was strictly the “social hand,” reserved for handshakes—not coughing, drinks, or purses. 1970s: Dinner bills were to be discussed before the meal to navigate changing gender roles. It's a reminder that what once passed for “proper” can feel completely out of touch just a few generations later. What to Buy in January — The Smart Shopper's Sweet Spot January is one of the best months of the year for strategic shopping, thanks to post-holiday sales and inventory resets. Whether you're upgrading your home, health, or wardrobe, this is when deals shine. Fitness & Wellness: Gym memberships, home workout equipment, smartwatches, and activewear Home Goods: Bedding, towels, blankets (hello, white sales), humidifiers, and routers Electronics: TVs and tech discounted after football season to make room for new models Winter Apparel: Coats, boots, gloves, and scarves—buy now for next year Thrifted Finds: Donation drops surge after the holidays, making thrift stores goldmines OUTDOORS FIELD REPORTS & COMMENTS We want to hear from you!

    As we close out another bumpy year in the art market, we are revisiting a recent episode that looks at one of the factors in play: the erosion of logic when it comes to the price of works of art. Our editor-in-chief was on the podcast sharing what she learned about how the rules of art pricing were made and broken—and what may come next.   What's a painting worth? For art world professionals, that question of price has never been easy—but lately, it's gotten harder than ever. As we've discussed on this podcast before, the art market has cooled off. But this isn't just a downturn—it's a disruption. The system that once supported pricing logic is now in disarray, and dealers and advisors are feeling the strain. In a recent report for Artnet News Pro, our editor-in-chief Naomi Rea explored how the traditional rules of art pricing have stopped making sense. With confidence waning and speculation drying up, dealers are quietly recalibrating. What we're seeing may be more than a correction—as Naomi reports, it could be the unraveling of an entire logic. Naomi joins senior editor Kate Brown to unpack what's going on in the “danger zone” of the market and how different players—from mega-galleries, emerging dealers, to advisors and collectors—are adapting. They also discuss whether we might be heading toward a more sustainable and meaningful art market.

    After the Minneapolis Meltdown The Detroit Lions walked out of Minneapolis with bruises and questions. The Minnesota Vikings exposed protection issues, timing issues, and game-management issues. It was hard to watch. On the latest episode of The Grey Area, the conversation turned fast from pain to purpose. This is the last week of the season. The Bears are next. The focus is whether anything learned in that loss will shape what happens now. Dan Campbell's words mattered. Right after the game he said the Lions “gotta make changes.” No hedging. No deflection. His Monday tone was calmer, but the message stood. Change is coming, and he has to be the agent of it. That echoes his raw line after the NFC title loss two seasons ago about “that might have been our shot.” Seasons in the NFL are fragile. Windows swing fast. What happens next decides whether that old line is a footnote or a warning. There was no comfort in the tape. Execution sagged. Play calling sputtered. The Vikings dictated terms. That adds weight to Week 18. Not for stats. For choices. Campbell's Crossroads: Play, Rest, or Recalibrate Grey wrestles with the final-week question. To play or not to play. The roster is banged up. The rhythm is off. The instinct to chase numbers gives way to a need to reset habits. The staff has to decide who benefits from snaps and who needs a seat. No simple answer, but clarity is required. Campbell already pushed past the usual coach-speak about “on to the next one.” He went straight to overhaul talk, with a game still left. That tells you where his head is. Numbers over narratives took a back seat. This week the lesson is bigger than the box score. The Lions need a cleaner plan and a cleaner identity before Chicago. That is the work. Fix the Offensive Line, Fix the Offense The priority is clear. The offensive line is job one. Find a center. Stack guard depth. Solve tackle. You can do that in one offseason. Other teams have done it with castoffs. If Brad Holmes and Campbell hit on those spots, a lot of what failed in Minnesota vanishes. Protection stabilizes the pass game. The run game breathes. Play calling opens up. Defense needs help too. All three levels. But without the line, you get what you just saw. The blueprint is attainable. The roster core can support quick repair. The front office has to execute. Temperature Check: Fans, Accountability, and the Bears Ahead Fans are angry. They should be. The team has traded on two years of success. Prices went up. Expectations followed. Then came the worst Lions performance in years, by execution and by design. That stings. The enemies list segment landed hard because accountability matters right now. Giving in to lesser angels is easy. The smarter move is to demand concrete fixes. The Detroit Lions still control their response. Beat the Bears with purpose. Then attack the line, the depth, and the defensive holes. Campbell opened the door to change. Now he has to walk through it. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8WqWARwBd_E #detroitlions #lions #detroitlionspodcast #minneapolismeltdown #minnesotavikings #protectionissues #game-managementissues #dancampbell #week18 #chicagobears #playorrest #offensivelineoverhaul #findacenter Learn more about your ad choices.

    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 Monday Headline Brief of The Wright Report, Bryan covers a massive FBI investigation into Somali fraud networks in Minnesota, the Trump administration's accelerating deportation and surveillance strategy, the growing political fight over prices and the Senate filibuster, improving drought conditions in the western United States, and major global developments from Africa, Latin America, China, and Australia. FBI Expands Probe into Somali Fraud Networks: FBI Director Kash Patel surged agents and resources into Minnesota following evidence of roughly nine billion dollars in suspected fraud tied to Somali-run daycare centers, Medicaid programs, food banks, and autism services. Investigators are now examining whether state officials and Democratic politicians enabled the schemes by shutting down early warnings. Bryan explains how viral footage showed dozens of fake daycare centers with no children enrolled, yet receiving massive public funds. Political Fallout and Questions for Democrats: Reports indicate that some Somali donors involved in the fraud also contributed to Democratic campaigns across multiple states. Governor Tim Walz previously halted fraud investigations after activists claimed discrimination. Bryan raises questions about whether these networks were used to generate political donations and votes, calling the potential scale of abuse "almost unimaginable." Trump Escalates Immigration Enforcement: ICE expanded highway operations targeting illegal migrant truck drivers in multiple states, while also arresting migrants at court check-ins who then skipped hearings, making them automatically deportable. The administration is deploying advanced tools, including facial recognition, license plate readers, and data from the IRS and Social Security Administration, to locate illegal migrants. Trump also increased the voluntary self-deportation bonus to $3,000, with airfare included, if migrants leave by December 31. Surveillance Tools Target Extremists: The same tracking systems are now being used to identify Antifa members and left-wing agitators under investigation for violence. DOJ officials say the effort responds to intelligence showing left-wing terrorism is now more prevalent than right-wing violence in the United States. Prices and the Filibuster Fight: President Trump warned that inflation and pricing will decide the 2026 midterms. With another government shutdown looming in January, he urged Senate Republicans to eliminate the filibuster to pass healthcare reform. A new GAO audit found widespread Obamacare fraud, including subsidies paid to deceased individuals and duplicate Social Security numbers. Western Drought Conditions Improve: California's drought has eased significantly, boosting agricultural water supplies. Lake Mead rose by three feet following recent storms, adding roughly seventy-two billion gallons of water, more than southern Nevada's projected annual usage. U.S. Strikes ISIS in Nigeria: The Pentagon launched missile strikes on ISIS training camps in northern Nigeria in coordination with the Nigerian government. Democrats criticized the strikes, while the White House rejected claims of racial motivation. Bryan warns that Islamist groups are attempting to establish a caliphate across central Africa. Trump Expands Influence in Latin America: The United States will reopen a strategic base in Manta, Ecuador, to counter narcotics trafficking and monitor Chinese influence. Conservative allies backed by Trump also won elections in Honduras, strengthening U.S. leverage across the region. China Signals Military Threats: Photos released by Chinese media show ballistic missiles concealed in cargo ship containers, a tactic that could be used to attack U.S. forces or ports during a conflict. Bryan says the images were deliberately leaked and amplified by Chinese bots as a warning to the West. Australia Downplays Islamist Attack: Australian officials claimed a recent ISIS-inspired attack on Jews was not religiously motivated, drawing sharp criticism. Bryan argues that refusing to acknowledge the crisis within Islam mirrors decades of Western denial and will lead to more violence. Listener Questions Close the Episode: Bryan answers questions on Ukraine's mineral deals, fuel supply risks tied to California refinery closures, and whether the American republic still exists. He argues the United States now functions more like a parliamentary democracy and explains why the filibuster debate reflects that deeper shift.   "And you shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free." - John 8:32     Keywords: FBI Somali fraud Minnesota, Kash Patel investigation, Tim Walz daycare Medicaid scandal, ICE deportation surveillance tools, self deportation bonus Trump, Antifa terrorism DOJ tracking, Obamacare fraud GAO audit, Lake Mead drought recovery, U.S. Nigeria ISIS airstrikes, Ecuador Manta base Trump, Honduras election Asfura, China cargo ship missiles, Australia ISIS attack denial, filibuster healthcare reform debate
