The so-called “Trump economic miracle” isn’t a talking point — it’s a real, measurable reality, no matter how hard the media tries to deny it. While Washington reflexively reaches for gimmicks and control levers, President Trump has been proving something far more powerful: real prosperity comes from free markets, not federal micromanagement. Lower taxes, deregulation, energy dominance, and unapologetic America-First trade policies are doing exactly what they’re designed to do — ignite growth without artificial stimulus or central-planner schemes. On today’s episode of Stinchfield, we lay out why Trump must stay the course — and why he should not listen to voices inside his own administration pushing non-free-market ideas. Credit card price controls? That’s government setting prices. A $200 billion expansion of Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac housing interventions? Did we learn nothing from the 2008 housing collapse? Prohibiting investors from buying housing only distorts supply further, and Uncle Sam taking equity stakes in Intel or defense firms crosses a dangerous line into state-run capitalism. The foundation for growth is already set. Capital is moving. Confidence is rising. Productivity is coming back online. The lesson is simple and timeless: when government gets out of the way, Americans build, innovate, and win. We don’t need bailouts, price controls, or Washington picking winners and losers. This is what real economic leadership looks like — trusting free people instead of controlling markets. Don’t interfere. Don’t panic. Just let it happen. Trump is on the right track, and the results are speaking for themselves.

The book of Vayikra ends with hard warnings against Israel should they walk with God with indifference. He too will be indifferent to them and the world will feel as though it is turning on them. Subsequently there is an intriguing mitzvah presented that deals with what's called "Temura" or "exchange". Prohibiting one from attempting to exchange an animal that was given to God for an offering with a different animal whether it be better or worse. In this episode we examine the problem with that and how fear and the need for control underlies it, as well as why it is related to the issue of indifference.

Coimisiún na Meán has published the finalised Online Safety Code. The Code sets binding rules applying to video-sharing platforms who have their EU headquarters in Ireland. The general obligations contained in the Code will apply from next month and platforms will have an implementation period for certain detailed provisions, which require IT build, to come into compliance. Coimisiún na Meán will take a supervisory approach to enforcing the Code, ensuring that platforms implement appropriate systems to comply with the provisions of the Code The Code introduces obligations on video-sharing platforms to protect people, especially children, from harmful video and associated content, including: Prohibiting the uploading or sharing of harmful content on their services including cyberbullying, promoting self-harm or suicide and promoting eating or feeding disorders as well as incitement to hatred or violence, terrorism, child sex abuse material, racism and xenophobia. Using age assurance to prevent children from encountering pornography or gratuitous violence online and having age verification measures in place as appropriate. Providing parental controls for content which may impair the physical, mental, or moral development of children under 16. These platforms will also have to ensure that they have ways for people to report content that breaks the rules, and act on those reports in line with their Terms and Conditions. The development of the Code was informed by an initial call for inputs in summer 2023, followed by a full public consultation from December 2023 to February 2024, which received nearly 1400 responses. Coimisiún na Meán's Youth Advisory Committee was also consulted on the development of the Code. The Code was then notified to the European Commission under the Technical Regulations Information System (TRIS) Directive process to ensure alignment with the EU Digital Services Act. The Code is part of Coimisiún na Meán's overall Online Safety Framework. This Framework makes digital services accountable for how they protect users from harm online. The updated Code, combined with the other parts of the Online Safety Framework, will deliver on the objectives of the Online Safety and Media Regulation Act, leading to safer online experiences for people across Ireland. The overall Online Safety Framework gives Coimisiún na Meán the tools to address the root causes of harm online, including the availability of illegal content, the harmful impacts of recommender systems, and inadequate protections for children on social media services. The Online Safety Commissioner, Niamh Hodnett, said: "The adoption of the Online Safety Code brings an end to the era of social media self-regulation. The Code sets binding rules for video-sharing platforms to follow in order to reduce the harm they can cause to users. We will work to make sure that people know their rights when they go online and we will hold the platforms to account and take action when platforms don't live up to their obligations." Executive Chairperson of Coimisiún na Meán, Jeremy Godfrey said: "With the adoption of the Online Safety Code, all the elements of our Online Safety Framework are now in place. Our focus now is on fully implementing the Framework and driving positive changes in peoples' lives online. Our message to people is clear: if you come across something you think is illegal or against a platform's own rules for what they allow, you should report it directly to the platform. Our Contact Centre is available to provide advice and guidance to people if they need help." Minister for Tourism, Culture, Arts, Gaeltacht, Sport and Media, Catherine Martin TD commented: "I welcome Coimisiún na Meán's adoption of its first Online Safety Code. Building upon the foundation set out in the Online Safety and Media Regulation Act 2022, this code is a major step forward in online safety. It introduces real accountability for online video sharing platforms and requires them to...

This Day in Legal History: King Tut's Tomb OpenedOn this day in legal history, February 16, 1923, the opening of King Tutankhamun's tomb by Howard Carter not only captivated the world with its historical and archaeological significance but also set the stage for a series of legal debates and regulations concerning the protection of cultural heritage. This event underscored the importance of laws governing archaeological excavations, the ownership of antiquities, and the ethical considerations of cultural patrimony. The discovery highlighted the legal complexities surrounding the removal of artifacts from their country of origin and the international trade in antiquities, which often involves issues of colonial history and national sovereignty.The opening of King Tutankhamun's tomb brought to light the need for comprehensive legal frameworks to protect ancient sites and artifacts from looting and illegal trafficking. It prompted countries around the world to reassess and strengthen their laws on cultural heritage protection. This event also played a significant role in the development of conventions and treaties aimed at the preservation and return of cultural properties to their rightful owners or countries, influencing key legal instruments such as the 1970 UNESCO Convention on the Means of Prohibiting and Preventing the Illicit Import, Export, and Transfer of Ownership of Cultural Property.Furthermore, the fascination with Tutankhamun's tomb raised ethical questions about the treatment of human remains and the respect due to ancient cultures, contributing to the evolution of ethical standards in archaeology and museology. The legal implications of Carter's discovery continue to resonate in contemporary debates over the repatriation of cultural artifacts and the responsibility of museums and collectors to ensure that their collections are ethically acquired and legally compliant.In essence, the opening of King Tutankhamun's tomb on this day in 1923 not only unveiled the treasures of ancient Egypt but also catalyzed significant legal and ethical advancements in the stewardship of cultural heritage. It serves as a reminder of the ongoing challenges and responsibilities faced by the international community in safeguarding the legacies of our shared human history.The Boy Scouts of America (BSA) has requested the U.S. Supreme Court to proceed with a $2.46 billion settlement for abuse claims, despite a pending review by the court on a related legal issue from the Purdue Pharma bankruptcy case. A group of 144 abuse victims is challenging the settlement, arguing it unjustly prevents them from suing non-bankrupt entities like churches and insurers associated with the Boy Scouts. The Supreme Court's decision in the Purdue Pharma case, which involves the potential immunity of the Sackler family for opioid-related lawsuits in exchange for a settlement, could influence the BSA's situation. The BSA contends that halting their settlement, already in effect and distributing funds to victims, would severely disrupt their operations and mission. The organization emerged from bankruptcy in April 2023, with the settlement aiming to compensate abuse victims with amounts ranging from $3,500 to $2.7 million. The BSA's plea emphasizes the distinct nature of their case compared to Purdue Pharma's and warns against the detrimental effects of unwinding the settlement plan.Boy Scouts org urges Supreme Court not to stop $2.4 bln abuse settlement | ReutersOver the past nine months, Saudi Arabia has attracted at least 30 multinational law firms, marking a significant influx into a new legal market, thanks to the kingdom's decision to allow foreign law firms to operate independently without local partners. This shift represents a major opportunity in a wealthy, oil-rich nation, especially as it coincides with Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman's efforts to modernize the economy and diversify beyond oil, through the Vision 2030 plan supported by a $700 billion sovereign wealth fund. The fund has initiated numerous large-scale infrastructure projects, offering unique legal challenges and opportunities, from city-building to drafting complex international contracts. However, the allure of this burgeoning market is tempered by concerns over Saudi Arabia's human rights record, complicating recruitment efforts for firms based in countries with more progressive stances on issues such as women's rights and LGBTQ+ rights. Despite these challenges, law firms are mandated to staff their offices with at least 70% Saudi nationals, creating a high demand for local legal talent and a competitive hiring environment. Firms must navigate the nuances of Islamic Law (Sharia), with some opting to draft documents in English or US law to circumvent local legal complexities, though this approach is not without its pitfalls. The legal landscape in Saudi Arabia is rapidly evolving to align more closely with international standards, particularly in areas like commercial arbitration. This rapid development offers a promising future for ambitious Saudi lawyers and presents foreign law firms with the task of integrating into a legal system that is swiftly adapting to meet global benchmarks, all while navigating the ethical considerations of operating within a jurisdiction with notable human rights concerns.Saudi Arabia Lures Big Law Firms to Lucrative New Legal MarketA New York state judge is poised to make a significant ruling in a $370 million civil fraud case against former U.S. President Donald Trump, accused of exaggerating his net worth to secure favorable loan terms from bankers. This lawsuit, initiated by New York Attorney General Letitia James, alleges Trump and his business operations inflated his worth by up to $3.6 billion annually over a decade, a claim Trump refutes as a political attack. The potential consequences for Trump include not just a hefty financial penalty but also a permanent ban from New York's real estate sector, severely restricting his business activities within the state. Additionally, James seeks to impose a five-year ban on Trump's adult sons, Don Jr. and Eric, who are co-defendants.In September, Justice Arthur Engoron found Trump guilty of fraud, mandating a partial dissolution of his business empire, the full impact of which remains uncertain as Trump appeals the decision. The forthcoming ruling, expected after a tumultuous three-month trial, could significantly impact Trump's business dealings and his political ambitions, including his campaign for the Republican nomination to contest against President Joe Biden.Throughout the trial, Trump's testimony acknowledged some inaccuracies in property valuations but shifted responsibility to the banks for their due diligence. He leveraged court appearances for political momentum, vehemently criticizing his adversaries for allegedly using the legal system against him. Despite these legal entanglements, including four criminal indictments related to various charges from hush money payments to mishandling classified documents and attempts to overturn the 2020 election results, Trump maintains his innocence and continues his bid for the Republican nomination.Judge set to rule in Trump's $370 million civil fraud case | ReutersThis week's closing theme is by Frédéric Chopin and brought to us thanks to Aya Higuchi, a teacher of piano at the University of Michigan.Frédéric Chopin, born in 1810 in Poland, is one of the most revered composers and pianists of the Romantic era, celebrated for his profound influence on the world of music, particularly piano composition. Chopin's unique style combines delicate melody with intricate technical demands, making his works a staple of the pianistic repertoire. Among his extensive catalog, the Nocturnes hold a special place, showcasing his innovative approach to the piano as a solo instrument capable of expressing a wide range of emotions and colors.The Nocturne in E-flat major, Op. 9, No. 2, is one of Chopin's most famous pieces, epitomizing the essence of the Nocturne form— a musical composition that is suggestive of the night. Composed in 1830-1831, this piece is celebrated for its lyrical melody, expressive depth, and serene character. The Nocturne Op. 9, No. 2, is marked by a graceful, singing melody in the right hand, over a flowing accompaniment in the left, creating a harmonious and dreamlike atmosphere.This work exemplifies Chopin's masterful use of the piano to convey emotion, with its subtle nuances, delicate phrasing, and dynamic contrasts. It is a piece that demands both technical precision and emotional sensitivity from the performer, balancing the expressive melody with the underlying accompaniment to create a cohesive and moving musical experience.Chopin's Nocturne Op. 9, No. 2, has become a beloved piece in the classical music repertoire, frequently performed in concert halls and recorded by countless artists. Its enduring popularity is a testament to Chopin's genius in crafting music that speaks directly to the human spirit, transcending time and cultural boundaries.Through pieces like the Nocturne Op. 9, No. 2, Chopin has left an indelible mark on the world of music, continuing to inspire both performers and listeners with his poetic expressiveness and innovative piano technique. This Nocturne, with its beautiful melodies and emotional depth, remains a shining example of Chopin's ability to transform the piano into a voice that speaks of the beauty and complexity of the human experience.Without further ado, Chopin's Nocturne opus 9 number 2.  Get full access to Minimum Competence - Daily Legal News Podcast at www.minimumcomp.com/subscribe

Dom welcomes in Representative Amen Brown back onto the Dom Giordano Program to discuss the importance of a few bills that have recently passed in Philadelphia and Pennsylvania. First, Rep. Brown offers his thoughts on Philadelphia City Council's Anthony Phillips and his bill that he recently got passed that bans the wearing of ski masks in public places, explaining that wearing these face masks only invites police questioning after a string of crimes with perpetrators using them to hide their identities. Then, Amen offers his thoughts on PA Senate Bill 140, a new bill passed in State Senate that limits Krasner's prosecutorial power, disallowing him the ability to prosecute crimes within 500 yards of a SEPTA station. Also, Brown explains why he voted in favor of Taylor Swift, explaining he was fearful of becoming the next topic of one of her songs. (Photo by Getty Images)

OUTLINE of today's show with TIMECODES A new medical code to track unvaccinated, partially vaccinated and anti-vexers — and a code to pay doctors for being informants 2:08 We've seen it coming for a long time. From the beginning of mRNA, CDC had mechanism for doctors to report those who "refused" 10:12 Gov Kristi Noem (SD) tells us integrity of "trusted international organizations" (like WHO) was damaged by — wait for it — CHINA. Feds did nothing wrong? 23:13 Brazil will vote on a measure to IMPRISON vaccine refusers AND those who speak against it — 2 to 8 years plus fine 31:14 Lancet publishes study that shows natural immunity is equal or better to jabs.

Does he stop vaccines? 43:35 Listener asks for prayers for his son, Daniel Jeremiah, who is suffering severe adverse effects from vaccine induced autism. FOX News pharmaceutical shill, pushes "breakthrough" drug for autism. It's cheap but comes with adverse effects. What's being ignored is Stem Cells (from patient and umbilical chords) that have been VERY effective at curing, not just treating, autism with NO adverse effects. 59:15 CDC's Wallensky: "masking guidance doesn't change with time" as she bemoans the "unfortunate" low numbers of cases but makes it clear she doesn't care about numerous scientific studies showing masks do NOT work 1:03:58 The merger of BigFood, BigPharma, and BigData that will operate through BigBox retailers to surveil you and your food and drugs 1:12:28 Democrat economist warns "debt could hit 130% of GDP in the next 10 years and boost interest rates".

He's worried about their borders, not our; their defense, not our; their PENSION PLANS, not ours 1:41:00 Switzerland may be the first country to outlaw cashless society, not outlaw cash. 1:48:40 The advantages of cash, why you don't need a digital ID to participate in the economy and ways to prepare and push back against CBDC 1:55:59 Discover is about to lose millions of customers after it told Reuters that it would target gun sales with the new merchant credit card codes. But they said they would not be the only ones. Will all credit card companies do this in just a couple of months? 2:07:49 Why are they doing this? They don't care about profits. They don't care about the marketplace. They only care about ESG 2:11:58 Woman sues White Castle hamburger chain for using her fingerprints without her consent and it may cost the chain BILLIONS 2:18:40 IMPORTANT: Tennessee bill would nullify any federal law, executive order, bureaucratic rule, or court decision that violates the Constitution.

And if you don't live in TN, tell your state reps to do something like this 2:25:50 The anti-freedom far-left is nothing more than a squawking minority of 10%. 2:37:14 Florida legislature overwhelming GOP offers money to homeschoolers but on the other end of the string are "tests" and a "Choice Navigator" to visit your family once a year and determine the educational needs of each child. 2:43:42Find out more about the show and where you can watch it at TheDavidKnightShow.com If you would like to support the show and our family please consider subscribing monthly here:SubscribeStar https://www.subscribestar.com/the-david-knight-showOr you can send a donation through Mail: David Knight POB 994 Kodak, TN 37764Zelle: @DavidKnightShow@protonmail.comCash App at: $davidknightshowBTC to: bc1qkuec29hkuye4xse9unh7nptvu3y9qmv24vanh7Money is only what YOU hold: Go to DavidKnight.gold for great deals on physical gold/silver
