It's Friday, March 13th, A.D. 2026. This is The Worldview in 5 Minutes heard on 140 radio stations and at www.TheWorldview.com.  I'm Adam McManus. (Adam@TheWorldview.com) By Adam McManus Why some Iranians dance during war Why are some Iranians dancing while war is unfolding in their country? For more than 47 years, the Islamic regime ruling Iran has governed through fear, oppression, and bloodshed, reports International Christian Concern. The hands of this regime are stained with the blood of thousands of Iranian and American citizens. It has been one of the world's leading sponsors of terrorism, spreading violence far beyond Iran's borders. At home, it has relentlessly persecuted Christians — executing some, imprisoning many, and forcing countless others into exile. Believers have been torn from their families, their homes, and their homeland, scattered across the world simply because they chose to follow Jesus Christ. When some Iranians celebrate or dance these days, it is not because they love war. It is because they have lived for decades under a darkness that few outside the country can fully comprehend. For many Iranians, these moments carry the fragile hope that the long night of oppression may finally be nearing its end. And freedom might be dawning once again. Congress hopes to Safeguard Women from Chemical Abortion On Wednesday, Republican Senator Josh Hawley of Missouri took to the podium in the Senate Judiciary hearing room to deliver a clear message: the abortion pill Mifepristone is not just risky — it's “inherently dangerous.” And it's up to Congress to regulate it, reports The Washington Stand. At a press conference, the Missouri senator unveiled his new legislation, the Safeguarding Women from Chemical Abortion Act. This bill seeks to strip Mifepristone — the drug responsible for the majority of U.S. abortions — of its longstanding approval from the Food and Drug Administration. According to recent data from the Guttmacher Institute, chemical abortions made up 63% of all abortions in 2023, with the trend only accelerating in the years since. Senator Hawley didn't hold back, blasting the FDA for letting mail-order shipments flood the country, wiping out state-level protections for the unborn and leaving women to face severe complications. HAWLEY: “In 11% of cases, women who take the drug, Mifepristone for use in an abortion experience a serious adverse health event. Now, that's the technical term. What it means, in practice, is internal infections, sepsis, hemorrhaging, a trip to the emergency room, a life-threatening condition. In 11% of cases!” Hawley added, “It is time for Congress to do something about this racket, And it is a racket. It is time for Congress to ban the use of Mifepristone for abortion, and it is time for Congress to give the victims — the survivors — … the right to recover.” He framed the fight as a double victory: shielding vulnerable women from what many see as a profit-driven chemical experiment and protecting unborn life when the courts and agencies will not. Call your Congressman today and urge him or her to vote for The Safeguarding Women from Chemical Abortion Act. The number is 202-224-3121. That's 202-224-3121. You can call and get a live operator 24 hours a day, 7 days a week and simply leave a message. The manufacturers and distributors of this heinous Abortion Kill Pill are well described in Isaiah 59:7. “Their feet rush into sin; they are swift to shed innocent blood. They pursue evil schemes; acts of violence mark their ways.” Armed man rammed truck into Michigan synagogue On Thursday, authorities say a man, armed with a rifle, rammed his truck into Temple Israel in West Bloomfield, Michigan, before the vehicle caught fire, prompting an active shooter response, reports NewsNation. Oakland County Sheriff Michael Bouchard said the synagogue's security team engaged the suspect with gunfire after he breached the building and drove down a hallway. The suspect was later found dead. His body was badly burned. BOUCHARD: “No kids, this is the important thing, no kids or no staff was injured whatsoever. One of the lead security people was hit by the car and was taken to the hospital for treatment. That individual should be okay.” The sheriff said the suspect appears to have been the only person in the vehicle. CNN host makes humiliating on-air correction after getting NYC terror attack story wrong During a “Stop the Islamic Takeover of New York City” rally on Saturday, two men were arrested for throwing improvised explosive devices at anti-Islam protesters. Authorities later discovered these men were inspired by the Islamic State terrorist group. The incident took place outside Gracie Mansion, the official residence of New York Democratic Mayor Zohran Mamdani. However, CNN's Abby Phillip, host of “NewsNight,” claimed on Tuesday that the men were not targeting the crowd, but the mayor, a Muslim himself, reports The Western Journal. PHILLIP: “Two Republicans say Muslims don't belong here after an attempted terror attack on New York Mayor Zohran Mamdami.” Samuel Short wrote, “The intent was obvious as CNN and Phillip would love to blame anyone who criticizes Islam as a violent terrorist. Oh, the irony.” On Wednesday morning, Phillip published a correction on the social media platform X. She also issued a correction on air Wednesday night. PHILIP: “This morning I issued a correction first thing in the morning, on X, for a mistake that I made in last night's show. But I also wanted to do so on air as well. “I incorrectly said that the bombs that were thrown by ISIS-inspired suspects in New York over the weekend were directed at Mayor Mamdani. They were not. I failed to catch and correct that mistake in real time, and I take full responsibility for that.” Former Southern Baptist Convention President entered hospice Former Southern Baptist Convention President Steve Gaines, age 68, has entered hospice care, over two years after he was diagnosed with kidney cancer, reports The Christian Post. Bellevue Baptist Church Pastor Ben Mandrell, who replaced Gaines as lead pastor of the Cordova, Tennessee-based megachurch last year, wrote a letter to the congregation earlier this week explaining the situation. He wrote, “Steve has faithfully served the Lord and shepherded so many people through the years. He's been a great pastor, mentor and friend. Let's honor him and his family by lifting them up before the Lord.” Butler Bill, which prohibited teaching evolution, signed into law And finally, on this day, March 13, 1925, Tennessee Governor Austin Peay signed the "Butler Bill” which prohibited the teaching of the false theory of macro evolution in public schools. The law was introduced by Tennessee House of  Representatives member John Washington Butler, for whom the law was named. The law was challenged and upheld later that year in a famous trial in Dayton, Tennessee called the Scopes Trial which involved a raucous confrontation between prosecution attorney and Christian leader, William Jennings Bryan, and prominent defense attorney and religious agnostic, Clarence Darrow. On parental rights, Bryan said, “The parents have a right to say that no teacher, paid by their money, shall rob their children of faith in God.” On the nature of evolution, Bryan said, "The first objection to Darwinism is that it is only a guess and was never anything more. It is millions of guesses strung together.” And, on his Christian worldview, Bryan said, "I would rather begin with God and reason down than begin with a piece of dirt and reason up.” Sadly, William Jennings Bryan died five days after the Scopes Trial concluded. The Butler Law was not repealed until 1967. Genesis 1:1 declares, “In the beginning, God created the heavens and the Earth.” Close And that's The Worldview on this Friday, March 13th, in the year of our Lord 2026. Follow us on X or subscribe for free by Spotify, Amazon Music, or by iTunes or email to our unique Christian newscast at www.TheWorldview.com.  Plus, you can get the Generations app through Google Play or The App Store.

A stunning whistleblower revelation exposes 25 years of secret FBI files used to surveil Trump, his allies, and political opponents—without evidence of crimes. From prohibited access files hidden from oversight to wiretaps, grand juries, and social media censorship, the story paints a picture of a shadow surveillance state inside the United States. SUMMARY Today's episode dives into a massive scandal threatening civil liberties: Prohibited Access Files Uncovered Whistleblower tipped off Senator Charles Grassley about secret FBI files known as “prohibited access,” which track Trump, his campaign, and nearly all Republican Party affiliates. These files, dating back to 1999, were rigged to hide from oversight, returning false negatives to FOIA requests or congressional inquiries. FBI agents, journalists, campaign staff, defense lawyers, and even Kash Patel himself were surveilled under this system. Illegal Surveillance & Constitutional Violations No evidence of wrongdoing was required to be targeted—this bypassed all protections under the Bill of Rights. Wiretaps, phone record analysis, and secret grand juries were used to monitor Trump's orbit, including Susie Wiles, his current chief of staff. Special judges were repeatedly used to approve illegal surveillance, creating a persistent unchecked surveillance apparatus. Political Witch Hunt & Whistleblower Exposure The prohibited access system is likened to secret police operations, enabling a surveillance state within the FBI itself. Kash Patel now leads a task force investigating the extent of these files and has already begun taking corrective action, including firing individuals involved in illegal spying. The scale: at least 1,200 individuals between 2018–2024 fell under this secretive surveillance, raising potential civil rights violations. This episode unpacks how a shadow surveillance network operated for decades, targeting political figures and whistleblowers while evading constitutional safeguards, and why oversight systems failed to detect it until a brave whistleblower came forward. SOCIAL MEDIA POST Title: FBI “Secret Police” Files Exposed: Trump Allies Targeted Description: Whistleblowers reveal 25 years of secret FBI files surveilling Trump, his allies, and Republicans—without evidence of crimes. Message: The FBI secretly maintained “prohibited access” files to spy on Trump, Susie Wiles, journalists, and campaign staff, bypassing the Bill of Rights. A whistleblower alerted Senator Grassley, exposing a surveillance state operating in plain sight. Kash Patel now leads an investigation into this massive abuse of power. Could America's own police state be hiding in plain sight? #FBIScandal #ProhibitedAccess #TrumpSurveillance #WhistleblowerAlert #PoliticalWitchHunt #CivilRights #KashPatel #SecretFiles #GovernmentOversight #ElectionIntegrity HASHTAGS FOR FIRST COMMENT #ShadowState #SecretPolice #FBIFiles #TrumpAllies #IllegalSurveillance #BillOfRights #ProhibitedAccess #GovernmentCorruption #Whistleblower #PoliticalSpying CUSTOM LABELS FBI secret files, prohibited access, Kash Patel investigation, Susie Wiles surveillance, Trump allies targeted, political witch hunt, civil rights violations, secret grand juries, wiretaps, FOIA obstruction, social media censorship, shadow surveillance state

Explosive revelations show the FBI secretly surveilled over 1,200 Trump allies, journalists, and political figures—without evidence of crimes. From Michael Caputo's emails to Susie Wiles' lawyer conversations, “special circumstance” subpoenas allowed prohibited access files to operate undetected for years. SUMMARY In this episode, we break down a massive constitutional and political scandal: The Prohibited Access System Over 1,200 people in Trump's orbit were surveilled under secret FBI files marked “prohibited access,” designed to hide their existence. These files returned false negatives when searched in the official FBI Sentinel system, making oversight impossible. Illegal Surveillance & “Special Circumstances” Michael Caputo's emails and communications were seized just weeks after joining the Trump campaign. Susie Wiles' conversations with her attorney and her movements were monitored under the same system. “Special circumstances” were used to justify surveillance without evidence of a crime, often approved by corrupt judges. Targeting Trump Allies & Republican Leadership Journalists, campaign advisers, lawyers, congressional staff, and even Kash Patel were all surveilled. Files were hidden from oversight, including Congress and internal FBI investigators, ensuring the shadow surveillance remained secret. Even after Kevin McCarthy became Speaker in 2023, the FBI reportedly opened files on Republican leadership under this system. This episode exposes the depth of the FBI's secret surveillance apparatus and raises questions about civil liberties, political targeting, and the unchecked power of intelligence agencies. SOCIAL MEDIA POST Title: FBI Secret Surveillance: 1,200 Trump Allies Monitored Description: Prohibited access files, illegal subpoenas, and secret FBI spying—Trump allies and journalists were targeted without evidence of crimes. Message: From Michael Caputo's emails to Susie Wiles' lawyer calls, over 1,200 Trump allies were surveilled under “special circumstances” files hidden from oversight. Prohibited access files returned false negatives, shielding the FBI from Congress, journalists, and even internal investigators.

Prohibited Digital Relationships | My Valentine is going to Hell? Sermon Series | Week 3 | Ps Chris by Every Nation Dorado

This Day in Legal History: Opium is Prohibited in the USOn February 9, 1909, the United States took its first significant federal step toward regulating narcotics when Congress passed a law banning the importation of opium for non-medical purposes. The act, officially titled “An Act to Prohibit the Importation and Use of Opium for Other Than Medicinal Purposes,” marked the beginning of a century-long evolution in American drug policy. While opium had long been associated with addiction and social issues—particularly in Chinese immigrant communities—prior regulation had occurred mostly at the state and local levels. This federal statute aimed to curb both domestic consumption and the growing international trade in opium, which had become a concern for moral reformers, physicians, and public officials.The 1909 law was as much a product of racialized anxieties and diplomatic concerns as it was a health policy. U.S. officials were influenced by the growing global temperance movement and international agreements like those discussed at the International Opium Commission in Shanghai that same year. Domestically, the law paved the way for a broader federal role in drug control, leading to later landmark legislation such as the Harrison Narcotics Tax Act of 1914. It also helped define narcotics as a matter of federal concern rather than simply a moral or local issue.While the 1909 statute was limited in scope—it did not criminalize possession or use, only importation—it established the principle that Congress could regulate substances in the interest of public health and welfare. That principle would be expanded in later decades as the War on Drugs developed. The opium ban illustrates how early 20th-century American legal policy began to intertwine with international diplomacy, race, and evolving conceptions of public health.A landmark trial began this week in a California state court to determine whether Instagram and YouTube can be held liable for allegedly harming a young woman's mental health through addictive platform design. The plaintiff, a 20-year-old woman identified as K.G.M., claims that Meta (parent company of Instagram and Facebook) and Google (which owns YouTube) designed their platforms in a way that fostered addiction from a young age, contributing to her depression and suicidal ideation. Her legal team argues the companies were negligent, failed to provide warnings, and that the platforms substantially contributed to her psychological harm.A verdict in her favor could open the door for thousands of similar lawsuits currently pending against major tech firms like Meta, Google, Snap, and TikTok. Notably, Snap and TikTok settled with the plaintiff before trial, while Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg is expected to testify. The defense plans to emphasize external influences in K.G.M.'s life and highlight efforts they've made around youth safety.The case challenges longstanding U.S. legal protections under Section 230 of the Communications Decency Act, which generally shields internet companies from liability for user-generated content. However, if the jury accepts the argument that the harm stems from platform design rather than content, it could weaken those defenses. Parallel legal battles are underway, including over 2,300 federal lawsuits and a separate trial in New Mexico where Meta is accused of enabling child sexual exploitation.Instagram, YouTube addiction trial kicks off in Los Angeles | ReutersThe Trump administration has appealed a federal court ruling that requires the U.S. Department of Transportation to release frozen funding for the $16 billion Hudson Tunnel Project, which aims to upgrade vital rail infrastructure connecting New York and New Jersey. Judge Jeannette Vargas issued a preliminary injunction ordering the unfreezing of the funds after officials from both states warned that construction would cease due to lack of financing. The administration filed a notice of appeal two days later.The funding had been halted in September pending a review of the project's adherence to new federal restrictions on race- and sex-based criteria in contracting. According to a source, Trump recently proposed unfreezing the money if Democrats agreed to rename Washington Dulles Airport and New York's Penn Station after him—an offer that was widely condemned.The Hudson Tunnel, which was damaged during Hurricane Sandy in 2012, remains a critical piece of rail infrastructure, handling over 200,000 passengers and 425 trains each day. The Gateway Development Commission, which oversees the project, expressed readiness to resume work once funding is reinstated. Approximately $2 billion of the $15 billion federal allocation—approved under the Biden administration—has already been spent.Trump administration appeals ruling on releasing New York City tunnel funds | ReutersA divided panel of the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Fifth Circuit upheld the Trump administration's policy of mandating detention without bond for individuals arrested during immigration enforcement operations. The 2-1 decision is the first appellate ruling to affirm the policy, despite widespread opposition from hundreds of lower-court judges across the country who have deemed it unlawful. The ruling applies to Texas and Louisiana, states that hold the largest populations of immigration detainees.The policy relies on an expanded interpretation of the term “applicants for admission” under federal immigration law. Traditionally applied to individuals arriving at the border, the Department of Homeland Security argued in 2025 that it also applies to undocumented individuals already residing in the U.S. This interpretation was adopted by the Board of Immigration Appeals and made mandatory by immigration judges nationwide.The case before the court involved two Mexican nationals, Victor Buenrostro-Mendez and Jose Padron Covarrubias, who had previously persuaded lower courts they were wrongly denied bond hearings. The appeals court reversed those rulings, with Judge Edith Jones writing that the statute's plain text supported the administration's view. Judge Dana Douglas dissented, arguing that the interpretation stretched beyond what Congress intended in the 1996 immigration law.Other circuit courts are expected to weigh in on similar challenges, and the issue may ultimately reach the U.S. Supreme Court.US appeals court upholds Trump's immigration detention policy | ReutersA federal appeals court has denied the Trump administration's request to delay proceedings in its appeal to reinstate executive orders targeting four major U.S. law firms. The U.S. Court of Appeals for the D.C. Circuit ruled that the cases—challenging orders against Perkins Coie, WilmerHale, Jenner & Block, and Susman Godfrey—will move forward and be combined with a related appeal involving attorney Mark Zaid's revoked government security clearance.The Justice Department had sought to postpone the law firm appeals until after the Zaid case was decided, a move that could have delayed resolution for months. But the court rejected that approach, siding with the law firms, which argued they deserved a timely judgment on whether the government unlawfully targeted them.Trump's executive orders accused the firms of using the legal system against him and criticized their diversity policies, directing the government to strip them of security access and limit their interactions with federal agencies. Four federal judges previously struck down the orders as unconstitutional, finding they violated free speech and due process rights. The administration is now appealing both those rulings and the one involving Zaid.Trump administration loses bid to delay appeals over law firm executive orders | Reuters This is a public episode.

This is effectively part 3 in a series of responses to the Prime Minister of Australia about censorship, legislation, policy, philosophy, Bondi and Social Media. The Prime Minister attempted to explain, as best he could, the reasons for banning under-16 year olds from certain social media platforms. I remark on an interview he conducted and make some broader remarks in conclusion to a short series on his response to the Bondi tragedy and other issues. These are largely off-the-cuff rather than prepared remarks - so expect the tone, tenor, tempo and expression to be a little different than usual.

The church, as the household of God and the pillar of truth, must steadfastly uphold doctrinal purity by resisting false teaching with uncompromising conviction. 1 Timothy 1:3–4 reveals the church's mission is to guard the apostolic faith against myths, endless genealogies, and speculative traditions that undermine God's authoritative word, particularly in the face of cultural and ideological pressures like secular humanism. We must heed God's call for a renewed commitment to the stewardship of God's truth—rooted in faith, grounded in Scripture, and expressed through faithful teaching, church discipline, and unwavering loyalty to Christ's commands. True spiritual health requires being dogmatic in the biblical sense: stubborn, adamant, and unbending in defending the gospel, especially against false teachers who arise from within the church itself. Ultimately, the church is called to be intransigent in its devotion to the apostles' teaching ensuring that Christ alone is exalted in all things.

California Assemblyman, Chris Rogers, joins the Exchange. He represents five counties across his district, which include Del Norte and Humboldt.

You'd be surprised at some of the everyday things that are banned in different parts of the world! For example, chewing gum is a big no-no in Singapore because they want to keep their streets clean. In Milan, Italy, it's actually illegal to frown in public unless you're at a funeral or visiting someone in the hospital.

En este episodio vamos a hablar sin filtros de una industria que mueve miles de millones de dólares cada año y que, aunque promete salud y rendimiento, también esconde riesgos que rara vez se mencionan.Arrancamos cuestionando lo más básico: ¿los suplementos realmente contienen lo que dicen en la etiqueta? Puede sonar obvio, pero más de un análisis independiente ha encontrado discrepancias preocupantes. Después, hablaremos del peligro latente en la industria de suplementos: falta de regulación, productos que salen al mercado demasiado rápido y fórmulas que no siempre son seguras.También platicamos del porqué deberías pensarlo dos veces antes de lanzarte a probar cualquier suplemento “nuevo” y cuáles son las mejores prácticas si decides incluir alguno en tu rutina: desde verificar certificaciones hasta saber identificar señales de alerta.Por supuesto, no podemos evitar la gran pregunta: ¿realmente necesitas suplementos para estar saludable? En algunos casos pueden ser útiles, pero en la mayoría de los escenarios, una buena alimentación y hábitos sólidos hacen mucho más que cualquier cápsula.Atajos Del Episodio02:17 - ¿Los Suplementos Contienen Lo Que Dicen Contener? 04:39 - El Peligro De La Industria De Suplementos 07:58 - Evita Consumir Suplementos Nuevos 12:00 - Mejores Prácticas Para Consumir Suplementos 14:40 - ¿Son Necesarios Los Suplementos? 17:33 - ConclusiónReferencias:National Institutes of Health.

With school back in session and fall in the air, it's the perfect time to get back to basics on the Rules of the Game podcast. On today's episode, we'll review how the advocacy rules differ across the various types of tax-exempt organizations, including 501(c)(3)s, 501(c)(4)s, and PACs. Whether you're a seasoned advocate or just starting out, understanding these fundamentals is crucial for crafting bold advocacy plans that maximize your capacity and comply with the appropriate rules. Join us for a quick refresher!   Attorneys for this Episode Melissa Marichal Zayas Natalie Ossenfort Susan Finkle Sourlis   Comparison of tax-exempt organizations There are many different types of tax-exempt organizations – our federal tax code offers 29 different types of tax exemptions to choose from! 501(c)(3)s 501(c)(3) organizations are tax-exempt, and donations to 501(c)(3)s are tax deductible. With this favorable treatment come some restrictions related to lobbying and election season advocacy. ·      Public Charities (including Community / Public Foundations) o   Prohibited from supporting or opposing candidates for public office o   Allowed to lobby so long as they stay within certain lobbying limits and use unrestricted dollars to pay for lobbying activities o   May also conduct nonpartisan election-related activities including voter outreach, voter education, voter registration, etc. ·      Private Foundations o   Prohibited from supporting or opposing candidates for public office o   Effectively barred from lobbying due to a steep excise tax that applies to private foundation lobbying expenditures o   Should also be aware of specific rules related to voter registration activities   501(c)(4) social welfare organizations, 501(c)(5) unions, and 501(c)(6) trade associations These organizations enjoy tax exempt status, but donations to them are not tax-deductible for the donor. However, they can engage in a wider array of advocacy activities than 501(c)(3)s. ·      They are allowed to lobby without tax code lobbying limits. ·      They can engage in some partisan political activity as a secondary purpose (for example, express advocacy). ·      When engaging in partisan activities, they need to be aware of campaign finance regulations and reporting thresholds. ·      At the federal level (and in most states), corporations - including tax-exempt organizations - are prohibited from making monetary or in-kind contributions to candidates or political parties.   527 – political organizations 527 political organizations include political parties; campaign committees for candidates running for federal, state, or local office; and federal or state political action committees (“PACs”). ·      The primary purpose of a 527 must be to engage in activities that influence the selection, nomination, election or appointment of an individual to a public office or an office in a political organization. ·      They do not generally engage in lobbying. Their lobbying expenditures may be subject to tax if the lobbying does not further political purposes. ·      There are many types of PACs, including traditional PACs and Super PACs.   How can these organizations work together?  Despite the different restrictions on lobbying and political activity, there are several ways to safely collaborate with organizations that have a different type of tax exemption.   501(c)(3) private foundations & 501(c)(3) public charities ·      Private foundations and public charities can engage in joint nonpartisan, non-lobbying activities, like public education campaigns. ·      Private foundations can also fund public charities, but they must ensure that they don't earmark any funds for lobbying.   501(c)(3) private foundations & 501(c)(4)s/501(c)(5)s/501(c)(6)s ·      Private foundations can also fund 501(c)(4)s, (c)(5)s, and (c)(6)s, but they must follow what are called the expenditure responsibility rules when granting to any non-(c)(3) organization.   501(c)(3) public charities & 501(c)(4)s/501(c)(5)s/501(c)(6)s ·      Public charities, including public and community foundations, can also collaborate with and fund (c)(4)s, (c)(5)s, and (c)(6)s. ·      Remember, your tax-exempt status follows your organization into any coalition work, so (c)(3)s must track any lobbying they engage in on behalf of or in support of the coalition and continue to stay within their lobbying limits. ·      All joint activities and campaigns must be nonpartisan, and any grants from a c3 to a c4 must prohibit the use of funds for partisan political activity. ·      The IRS will count the full grant from a c3 public charity to a c4 as a (c)(3) grassroots lobbying expenditure, unless the grant agreement explicitly prohibits the use of funds for lobbying or states what portions may be used for direct and for grassroots lobbying.   501(c)(4)s/501(c)(5)s/501(c)(6)s & 527 political organizations ·      501(c)(4)s, and all other corporations, should avoid making monetary or in-kind contributions to a political organization or candidate. These types of contributions are prohibited in federal elections, as well as in most state and local elections. ·      However, 501(c)(4) corporations may establish a traditional federal PAC via a Separate Segregated Fund. o   501(c)(4) corporations may not contribute to this federal PAC or any other political organization, but they can pay for a connected SSF's administrative costs. o   There are other special limitations for this type of PAC, including that it can only raise funds from the connected organization's bona fide members and its executive and administrative personnel and their families.   Resources ·      Alliance for Justice, The Connection: Strategies for Creating and Operating 501(c)(3)s, 501(c)(4)s, and Political Organizations (See p. 11 for chart comparing tax-exempt organizations) ·      Alliance for Justice, Focus on Foundations ·      Alliance for Justice, An Introduction to PACs ·      Alliance for Justice, How to Fund a 501(c)(4)

Today we are talking about a deal we recently raised for, mostly so you can understand some of the things that happen behind the scenes and why we decided to have this be our first syndication for 2025.Read this episode here: https://tinyurl.com/2km2c2k9Why did it pass our test besides the fact that these partners have a great track record and having exited 4 deals with them?1. Low vacancy. There is a shortage of small bay industrial in the Phoenix market, people have been building large bay industrial. For the small tenants that need a smaller space, the available inventory is very low.2. Leases expiring and below market. A lot of the tenants had their lease expiring during our ownership, and the vast majority is below market, one of the largest tenants in the property with the biggest rent upside, already decided to not renew. We underwrote them not renewing a year from now, and they are significantly below market.3. IG Leases. All of the tenants except one are on industrial gross (IG) leases. We are converting all of the tenants to NNN leases. This will also increase the bottom line for our investors.4. Prohibited cost to build. Besides the market having very low vacancy, the vast majority of tenants being between 30 to 70% below market, and the leases expiring in the next 24 months, small bay industrial is cost prohibited to build. It costs more to build than the rents that you're going to get. We are purchasing the property at a significant discount to replacement cost. The property was built in 1999 and it looks really good.5. Location. The property has freeway visibility and is right next to the freeway exit.6. Market. Phoenix is a phenomenal market. It has a 16% population growth since 2010, a job growth of 45 to 50% since 2010. The personal income tax is very low at 2.5%. They're exploding in terms of plants, campuses, and jobs being created in the area. There is a $65 billion chip plant being created next to the property. There is a $20 billion Intel expansion. These are all creating jobs, which is always a great sign of a phenomenal market to be in.Final ThoughtsThe raise took a little bit longer than what we thought it was going to take. We did not finish the entire raise and still have a couple million to go, however, we did manage to close on the property and the couple million that we have to go is mainly for reserves, so that still needs to be finalized.Commercial Real Estate Tips Learned Recently:Turn expense into income: e.g., rent dumpster out.You can open a Senior Living home in any state if one tenant has a disability due to the ADA / Fair Housing Act.Always over-raise in case investors don't send funds.If a deal blows up, attorney often refunds fees (to keep you as a client).When you refinance, you don't pay taxes. This means you can cash out of a property, or get a line of credit, and buy another property without paying taxes on that down payment. Make sure you are comfortable with the LTV's when you cash out.Interest rates are always negotiable, you can get ~0.25% interest rate break if you open a checking/savings with lender.When developing a property from the ground up, always assume that the piece of land has all of these: endangered species, wetlands, easements, utility issues, trees – until proven otherwise. This means you need to get all of these reports and surveys done (amongst many other things)) before purchasing a piece of land for development.Join our investor club here: https://montecarlorei.com/investors/

The Donald Trump/Pam Bondi reality show continues with reporting that the DOJ will release a transcript of an interview Trump's former criminal defense attorney, Todd Blanche, conducted with convicted child sex trafficker and indicated perjurer Ghislaine Maxwell.In the interview, Maxwell reportedly said Trump did nothing wrong. Of course, we already suspected that was the case for at lease two reasons. First, after the interview, the DOJ rewarded Maxwell with a move to a cushy women's prison camp even though convicted sex offenders are PROHIBITED from serving their sentence at the facility to which Maxwell was transferred. Second, was there ever an expectation that Maxwell would implicate or incriminate the only person on the planet who could pardon her for her crimes?Glenn discusses the three main takeaways about the DOJ potentially releasing a transcript of Maxwell's recent interview.For nightly live Law Talks, please join Glenn on Substack: glennkirschner.substack.comIf you're interested in supporting our all-volunteer efforts, you can become a Team Justice patron at: / glennkirschner If you'd like to support Glenn and buy Team Justice and Justice Matters merchandise visit:https://shop.spreadshirt.com/glennkir...Check out Glenn's website at https://glennkirschner.com/Follow Glenn on:Threads: https://www.threads.net/glennkirschner2Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/glennkirschner2Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/glennkirsch...Bluesky: https://bsky.app/profile/glennkirschn...TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/glennkirschner2See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

This Halacha was developed from multiple transcriptions of Rabbi Eli Mansour's lectures in the "Beki'im BaHalacha" series. The original audio recordings for this Halacha were delivered on the following dates and can be accessed here: 06-24-25 Audio File ; 06-25-25 Audio File ; 06-26-25 Audio File ; 06-29-25 Audio File The Three Weeks , spanning from Shiba Asar BeTammuz (the 17th of Tammuz) through Tisha B'Av , is a time designated for national mourning over the tragedies that befell Am Yisrael throughout history—most notably the destruction of both Bateh Mikdash. Our Sages instituted a number of customs and halachot during this period to reduce our joy and help us internalize the gravity of the losses. While the Nine Days and week of Tisha B'Av carry stricter restrictions, even from the start of the Three Weeks, there are behaviors and activities that should be avoided due to their association with excessive joy, lightheartedness, or distraction from mourning. Entertainment and Recreational Outings The Rambam writes (Hilchot Ta'aniyot 5:1) that the proper response to communal suffering is to reflect and act—not to carry on with business as usual. For this reason, it is customary to avoid outings and events that are designed purely for fun or celebration . This includes: Attending concerts, comedy shows, musical performances, or theater productions Going to amusement parks, carnivals, bowling alleys, or arcades Group activities or trips organized for entertainment and leisure Recreational barbecues, parties, or similar festive gatherings The She'elat Ya'abets and Ben Ish Hai (Parashat Devarim) both emphasize avoiding such joyous outings during this period. Rav Moshe Feinstein (Iggerot Moshe, O.C. vol. 3, siman 87) also addressed recreational gatherings and ruled that they should be avoided even when music is not involved. Sports and Physical Activity Recreational sports are another category of concern. While physical activity for health is permitted, engaging in sports for fun—especially if competitive and emotionally charged—should be avoided. Casual jogging or gym workouts for health reasons are permitted . Joining in competitive team sports, tournaments, or pickup games, especially those that attract crowds or bring heightened excitement, are discouraged . Swimming for fitness may be permitted during the Three Weeks, but not during the Nine Days. The Mishna Berura (O.C. 551:16) cites that joyous activity should be limited even during the early part of the Three Weeks, especially when it mimics festivity. Poskim such as Rav Shmuel Kamenetsky extend this to include sporting events with celebratory atmospheres. Shopping for Enjoyment During the Three Weeks, one should refrain from shopping for enjoyment , even if no Beracha Shehechiyanu would be required. This includes: Buying new clothing, shoes, jewelry, accessories, or electronics Making home décor upgrades or indulging in hobby-related purchases Shopping sprees or window-shopping done for leisure Essential purchases (like school supplies or items urgently needed) are permitted. If one finds a limited-time deal or discount that will not be available later, they may buy the item during the Three Weeks but should wait to use it until afterward , if possible. This is ruled by Rav Moshe Feinstein and others (Iggerot Moshe, O.C. vol. 3, siman 80). Travel and Leisure Trips The Three Weeks are also considered a time of danger (see Shulchan Aruch O.C. 551:18), and for this reason, many refrain from leisure travel or long road trips. Rav Ovadia Yosef (Yechave Da'at 1:37) writes that unless there is a real need, vacation trips should be postponed until after Tisha B'Av. This includes: Cruises, resort stays, or beach vacations National parks or nature sightseeing trips Visiting distant relatives for enjoyment rather than necessity However, if the travel is required for business, medical needs, family obligations, or other pressing reasons, it is permitted—though one should still avoid turning it into a joyous excursion. Maintaining the Right Tone Some mistakenly believe that the Three Weeks require sadness or depression. On the contrary, the Torah teaches that a Jew must always serve Hashem with joy (Devarim 28:47). But during periods of national mourning, the tone of that joy must be subdued and introspective. The Gemara in Ta'anit 30b teaches, "Mi'shenichnas Av, mema'atin b'simha"—as the month of Av begins, we reduce our joy. We do not eliminate joy, but we avoid external expressions of frivolity and celebration. This balance is echoed by the Aruch HaShulchan (O.C. 551:23) , who writes that one's behavior during these days should reflect a seriousness and awareness of our national losses, even if one continues to smile, work, and engage with others normally. Summary During the Three Weeks, one should avoid: Concerts, shows, amusement parks, and festive outings Competitive or recreational sports done for fun Unnecessary shopping for non-essential or luxury items Travel taken for leisure or vacation Parties and gatherings unrelated to Misvot This helps us remain focused on the deeper meaning of this period—a time to reflect, mourn, and yearn for the rebuilding of the Bet HaMikdash.

In 2024 Australia introduced a new Prohibited Symbols Act which includes a ban on the public display, sale and trade of original or reproduction items which carry the Hakenkreuz or SS runes. There are exemptions in place if the items are used for "educational, artistic, academic or scientific purposes" but the wording of the legislation is vague - leaving Australian reenactors in a difficult position. In this episode Chris talks to Craig, a long time reenactor from Australia, about the impact that the new law is having on the hobby there.  For more information on Craig's unit please click the link below.... https://www.facebook.com/share/19HkoomukR/?mibextid=wwXIfr A big thank you to everyone who supports the podcast via Patreon - we appreciate every donation, no matter how big or small, and your regular contributions really do keep the show on the air.

Let me clarify for the audience that does not follow closely.  Tariffs are paid by the importer based on the wholesale price of the product as delivered by the exporting country depending on the exporters' tariff rate.  Tariffs are NOT LEVIED/PAID based on the retail price of the product as sold to the consumer. Example:  A pair of Denim Jeans made in China for Guess Brand.  The Chinese manufacturer sells the jeans to Guess Brand for $10 a pair manufactured.  Guess sells the jeans at retail in the USA for $100 (a $90 gross profit). A 50% tariff on China means the jeans cost Guess Brand $15 instead of $10 (an $85 gross profit).  A 50% tariff on Guess brand jeans, that retail for $100, changes the cost to the retail brand by $5. Multinational corporations who have off shored their production and manufacturing to China are the ones screaming about tariffs.  Ultimately in the final analysis, President Trump is exposing corporatism, multinational corporate vultures; he is not necessarily just exposing China. In the example above the company makes $85 gross profit as opposed to $90 gross profit on the pair of jeans if they do not raise the retail price.  They don't raise the price because their profit margins are already ridiculous, and that's why consumer prices do not go up. A 50% direct tariff on Chinese goods only marginally hits the multinational corporation.  American consumers need to understand this dynamic better.    WATCH:  MARGARET BRENNAN: But for consumers, the reality is there will either be less inventory or things at higher prices, or both. SEC. BESSENT: Margaret, when we were here in March, you said there was going to be big inflation. There hasn't been any inflation. Actually, the inflation numbers are the best in four years. So why don't we stop trying to say this could happen, and wait and see what does happen.
