The 2026 midterm elections may be in November, but they're top of mind for California voters who will elect a new governor this year and who passed Proposition 50 last fall – redrawing congressional districts to favor Democrats in their bid to retake the House. We look at how redistricting is shaking out in races across the state. And we examine whether Democrats have gained an edge nationally as new polling shows voters souring on Trump's immigration and economic agenda, but concerns about election interference mount.

In this episode of Built to Divide we dissect the collision of NIMBY politics, Proposition 13 in California, environmental law, rising construction costs, and cultural status signaling that defined housing in the 2010s. Dimitrius Lynch takes listeners inside the community meeting rooms where projects die quietly, tracing how California's tax revolt rewired local incentives, how CEQA evolved from environmental shield to procedural weapon, and why housing scarcity became fiscally rational—even when socially destructive.This episode connects Thorstein Veblen's leisure class theory to modern zoning fights, explains why new construction skews luxury, and reveals how amenities became financial risk mitigation tools, not indulgences. From Hudson Yards and empty towers as safety-deposit boxes to YIMBY vs. NIMBY power shifts, this episode shows why the middle disappeared from the housing market—and why scarcity today is a policy choice, not a mystery.Episode Extras - Photos, videos, sources and links to additional content found during research.Episode Credits:Production in collaboration with Gābl MediaWritten & Executive Produced by Dimitrius LynchAudio Engineering and Sound Design by Jeff Alvarez

The America's Work Force Union Podcast welcomed David Goldberg, President of the California Teachers Association (CTA), representing more than 325,000 educators across the state. Goldberg discussed the funding challenges facing California public schools, the wave of teacher strikes for better resources and compensation and the critical need to extend Proposition 55, a tax measure that supports education and other public services. On today's episode of America's Work Force Union Podcast, Sue Browne, Rapid Response Coordinator for District 1 of the United Steelworkers, took center stage. With more than 30 years as a Steelworker and deep roots in Local 5965 in Michigan, Browne reflected on her path from the assembly line to union activism. She shared insights into the USW Rapid Response program, its communication strategies, and its Balancing the Scales campaign, which aims to advance core workplace issues for union members in Ohio and Michigan.

FF: Talk vs. Action There is a big difference between what someone says and what they do. The legislators might tell you that they have saved you 3 billion dollars. They won't mention that this savings is spread over 10 years after they already increased what you pay over the last year by 3 billion. So did you really save anything? The Auditor might report that they do not have a backlog of tax disputes, but if there are 4509 complaints pending, how accurate is that statement? People can say that they want to stop government waste, fraud, and abuse, but are they taking actions to help make that happen? Today we talk about politicians, property taxes, Proposition 13 in California, and where our taxes go. We also talk about audits, accountability, and taking simple actions to protect yourself and make the world a better place!

Joanne Fleming is an extraordinary freedom-fighter in Texas who runs “Grassroots America We the People.” On Steve Bannon's “War Room Texas” program last night, she revealed a stunning fact.  According to Ms. Fleming, during interviews of candidates seeking her group's influential endorsement, when asked what prospective constituents say is most concerning them, the threat posed by shariah's adherents is now consistently mentioned.  This is particularly noteworthy because voters in the Texas Republican primary on March 3rd will have an opportunity to approve Proposition 10, which simply says “Texas should prohibit sharia law.”  A new poll by Rasmussen Reports indicates that its not just Texans, but a sizeable majority of U.S. voters – seventy-seven percent – who are concerned about “the influence of radical Islam in America.” Learn more about the threat Texas – and the rest of America –face from sharia-supremacism at BanSharia.com This is Frank Gaffney.

Martin Luther King, Jr. had a dream of freedom. The world's sharia-supremacists have one, too. Theirs  is about submission – specifically, the non-Muslim world's enslavement pursuant to the toxic, demonic and anti-constitutional Islamic ideology known as sharia. The United States is a prime target for sharia-adherents' penetration, subversion and conquest since that would inevitably ensure the end of Judeo-Christian civilization – and with it, any hope of fully realizing and perpetuating Dr. King's visionary aspiration.  Texas is the frontline of this battle between good and evil. On March 3rd, many Texans will vote on Republican primary ballot Proposition 10. It simply says, “Texas should prohibit sharia law.” The stakes could hardly be higher. After all, as Texas goes, so goes the Nation. And it is no exaggeration that as this nation goes, so goes Dr. King's quest for freedom worldwide. This is Frank Gaffney.

On this episode of Everyday Injustice, host David Greenwald speaks with Kate Chatfield, executive director of the California Public Defenders Association, about the mounting crisis in California's public defense system and what it reveals about deeper structural failures in the criminal legal system. Chatfield explains that public defenders now represent roughly 90 percent of people charged with crimes, yet remain chronically underfunded and overwhelmed, a reality that directly undermines the constitutional promise of meaningful legal representation . Chatfield describes how excessive caseloads make it nearly impossible for defenders to provide the level of advocacy required even in so-called low-level cases. She notes that misdemeanors routinely carry severe collateral consequences, including loss of employment, housing instability, and immigration harm, and that many clients are navigating homelessness, mental illness, or substance use disorders. These underlying conditions, she argues, are routinely criminalized rather than addressed through social services, placing public defenders on the front lines of systemic neglect . The discussion also turns to SB 1437, the landmark 2018 reform that narrowed California's felony murder rule. As the bill's lead drafter, Chatfield recounts how survey and appellate research revealed that felony murder disproportionately impacted young people, particularly young Black and Latino men, and frequently sentenced accomplices who were not the actual killers to life terms. She emphasizes that resentencing data following SB 1437 show extremely low recidivism rates, undercutting claims that such reforms threaten public safety . Finally, Chatfield weighs in on Proposition 36 and broader claims that increased incarceration can be justified as “treatment.” She argues that such measures are disingenuous, expanding jail populations while diverting resources away from housing, health care, and voluntary treatment—the very investments proven to prevent harm. True public safety, she concludes, will not come from deeper entanglement with the criminal legal system, but from sustained commitment to meeting human needs before people ever enter it .

The latest episode of the AgNet News Hour delivers a wide-ranging discussion on agriculture, public policy, and the growing challenges facing California farmers. Hosts Nick Papagni, “the Ag Meter”, and Lorrie Boyer open the show with a look at new federal dietary guidelines tied to the Make America Healthy Again movement, which emphasize protein, fruits, vegetables, whole milk, and eggs while reducing reliance on grains and ultra-processed foods. The conversation highlights how these changes could affect school meals, SNAP and WIC programs, and key agricultural sectors such as dairy. A major portion of the episode features an in-depth interview with California Assemblyman David Tangipa, who reflects on the legacy of late Congressman Doug LaMalfa, a fourth-generation rice farmer remembered for his integrity and advocacy for agriculture. Tangipa discusses the political uncertainty following LaMalfa's passing and strongly criticizes Proposition 50, arguing that California's redistricting process amounted to unconstitutional racial gerrymandering. He outlines ongoing litigation, possible Supreme Court involvement, and the broader consequences for Central Valley representation. The discussion expands into election integrity, with Tangipa calling for voter ID, citizenship verification, and increased accountability, while urging farmers and rural communities to become more politically engaged. He stresses that breaking the Democratic supermajority in Sacramento is critical for meaningful reform, particularly on water policy, energy costs, and agricultural regulations. Beyond politics, the episode addresses pressing on-the-ground issues for growers. A BASF interview focuses on weed control lessons from 2025, emphasizing “start clean, stay clean” strategies to manage herbicide resistance, especially against Palmer amaranth. The hosts also raise concerns over unfair import dumping impacting California commodities such as pears, mushrooms, sheep, tomatoes, avocados, and raisins, noting that domestic growers face higher regulatory burdens without a level playing field. The show closes with discussion of water storage, rising gas prices, California's growing budget deficit, stalled high-speed rail projects affecting farmland, and increasing wildlife pressures, including wolves and predators. Throughout the episode, AgNet West reinforces its commitment to advocating for farmers, providing clear context on policy decisions, and keeping agricultural voices front and center.

This week we talk about prediction markets, incentives, and gambling addiction.We also discuss insider trading, spot-fixing, and Gatorade.Recommended Book: The Kingdom, the Power, and the Glory by Tim AlbertaTranscriptPrediction markets are hundreds of years old, and have historically been used to determine the likelihood of something happening.In 1503, for instance, there was a market to determine who would become the next pope, and from the earliest days of commercial markets, there were associated prediction markets that were used to gauge how folks thought a given business would do during an upcoming economic quarter.The theory here is that while you can just ask people how well they think a political candidate will fare in an election or who they think will become the next pope, often their guesses, their assumptions, or their analysis will be swayed by things like political affiliation or maybe even what they think they're meant to say—the popular papal candidate, for instance, or the non-obvious, asymmetric position on a big commercial enterprise that might help an analyst reinforce their brand as a contrarian.If you introduce money into the equation, though, forcing people to put down real currency on their suspicions and predictions, and give them the chance to earn money if they get things right, that will sometimes nudge these markets away from those other incentives, making the markets commercial enterprises of their own. It can shift the bias away from posturing and toward monetization, and that in turn, in theory at least, should make prediction markets more accurate because people will try to align themselves with the actual, real-deal outcome, rather than the popular—with their social tribe, at least—or compellingly unpopular view.This is the theory that underpins entities like Polymarket, Kalshi, Manifold Markets, and many other online prediction markets that have arisen over the past handful of years as regulations on these types of businesses have been eased, and as they've begun to establish themselves as credible players in the predicting-everything space.In politics in particular, these markets have semi-regularly shown themselves to be better gauges of who will actually win elections than conventional polls and surveys, and though their records are far from perfect and still heavily biased in some cases, such community-driven predictions from money-motivated markets are gaining credibility because of their capacity to incentivize people to put their money where their mouths are, and to try to profit from accurate preordination.The flip-side of these markets, and some might even say a built-in flaw with no obvious solution, is that they are rife with insider trading: people who are in the position to know things ahead of time making in some cases millions of dollars by placing big bets that, for them, aren't bets at all, because they know what will or what is likely to happen.This seems to have occurred at least a few times with big political events in 2025, and it's anticipated that it could become an even bigger issue in the future, especially for markets that use cryptocurrencies to manage payments, as those are even less likely than their fiat currency peers to keeps solid tabs on who's actually behind these bets, and thus who might be trading on knowledge that they're not supposed to be trading on.That said, it could be argued that such insider trading makes these markets even more accurate, eventually at least. And that points us toward another problem: the possibility that someone on the inside might look at a market and realize they can make a killing if they use their position, their power to sway these markets after placing a bet, giving them the ability to assure a payout by abusing their position—major events being influenced by the possibility of a community-funded payday for those in control.What I'd like to talk about today is the same general principle as it's playing out in the sports world, and why the huge sums of money that are now sloshing around in the sports betting industry in the US are beginning to worry basically everyone, except the sports betting companies themselves.—In October of 2025, the head coach of the NBA basketball team, the Portland Trail Blazers, Chauncey Billups, Miami Heat player Terry Rozier, and former NBA player Damon Jones, and about 30 other people were arrested by the FBI due to their alleged illegal sports gambling activities. Rozier was already under investigation following unusual betting activity that was linked to his performance in a 2023 game—he was later cleared of wrongdoing, but the implication then and in this more recent instance is that he and those other folks who were rounded up by the FBI may have been involved in rigging things so they could get a big payoff on gambling markets.Similar things have been happening across the sports world, including a lifetime ban for Jontay Porter, a former Toronto Raptors player, who apparently gave confidential information to people who were placing bets on NBA games—he later pleaded guilty to conspiracy to commit wire fraud as a result of that investigation—and in November of 2025 two Major League Baseball players, both of them pitchers for the Cleveland Guardians, Emmanuel Clase and Luis Ortiz, were charged by federal prosecutors for allegedly rigging pitches to benefit people betting on those pitches; they've been charged with wire fraud and money laundering, and each could face up to 65 years in prison.And those are just a few of the many instances of game-rigging that have been alleged in recent years, the specifics of which vary, but the outcome is always to give someone an advantage in these markets, which are only recently broadly legal across the United States, and which thus allow folks with the right connections or some money to invest ahead of time to, for instance, pay a pitcher to throw an inning, or pay a coach to tell them who will be benched and when, so that they can make a big wager with less of a risk, or in some cases, no risk at all.One of the big issues here is that rather than simply being a which-team-will-win sort of thing, many of these bets are highly specific and granular, including what are called proposition or prop bets that allow folks to gamble on the number of strikeouts a pitcher will tally in a given inning and other very specific things.If a pitcher were to then place a bet, perhaps through an intermediary, on their own prop bet-related performance, they would stand a decent chance of tallying the right number of strikes and balls. They could also sell that information to someone else, taking a guaranteed payout in exchange for the foreknowledge they grant that gambler, who could then do what they want with the information, and then if they do well with it, they could pay that pitcher to do the same again in the future.This type of bet is called spot-fixing, and it's seen across prediction markets, not just sports markets. Pitchers can fix an inning of a game, but poker players can also go all-in or fold a given number of times in a tournament, and the folks in charge of dumping Gatorade over the winning coach following a Super Bowl event can leak that color, based on their foreknowledge of the setup, to gamblers—these markets are sprawling and varied, and anyone in any position of power who can make decisions about such things, or who's involved enough to leak information can do so at a profit, either themselves putting down money on spot-fixed prop bets, or selling that information to those who will themselves place a bet.The issue sports organizations in the US are now running into is that while they aligned themselves with sports gambling entities like DraftKings and FanDuel after these platforms were legalized in more states following the striking-down of a federal ban on such things in 2018—as I record this, they're currently legal in 31 states, alongside Washington DC and Puerto Rico—and they've profited a fair bit from that, allowing these businesses to become sponsors, to slap their logos on everything, and to generally become interwoven with the leagues themselves; despite all that, they've also created a sports culture in which betting is ultra-common, and that means fans are no longer just fans, they're putting down money on various possible sports-related outcomes.That means folks who were maybe previously die-hard fans of their local team may no longer just be disappointed when their team loses, they'll be financially impacted, perhaps even devastated. And many athletes who play on these teams, in these leagues, are now suffering all kinds of abuse and threats from people who decided to put a lot of money on their performance, but who failed to win a game, or maybe even throw the exact right number of strikes and balls in a given inning.This points at two big issues with sports betting in the US right now.First is that there's a lot of money splashing around in this space. An estimated $160-170 billion was wagered by US citizens in 2025 alone, generating about $16.4 billion in revenue for sportsbooks—the entities that take these sorts of bets.That's likely a significant undercount, too, as more generalist prediction markets are also getting involved in the sports betting game, blending this type of gambling with other sorts of prediction markets, like those related to politics and international happenings, like war.And second, a lot of people are gambling a lot of money on sports stuff right now, and that's becoming an issue. In October of 2025, a Pew Research poll found that 43% of US adults think legalized sports betting is bad for society, up from 34% in 2022, and 40% says it's bad for sports, up from 33%. A whopping 22% of US adults say they personally bet money on sports in the past year, up from 19% in 2022, and 10%, one in ten American adults, say they have placed a sports bet online in the past year, up from 6% in 2022.There has been a significant increase in calls to the National Problem Gambling Helpline in recent years—a 45% increase from 2017 in states where sports betting hasn't been legalized, and a 148% increase, more than three times as much, in states where sports betting was legalized by August of 2025. Not for nothing, too, it's estimated that professional athletes are about five-times more likely than the average person to become hooked on gambling, which would seem to amplify all these issues, in addition to the obvious problems this can create for people with often high-paying, but also often financially precarious, short-term careers.The implication, then, is that legal sports betting either sparks or reinforces gambling issues, creating more addictive behavior and triggering more financial issues. And bankruptcy numbers seem to back this up: in states where online gambling is allowed, bankruptcy rates increased by 28% and debt collections rose by 8% just two years after sports betting legalization. Data also shows that there's a 20% increase in mass-market alcohol consumption in states with legalized sports betting, and that for every dollar spent on sports betting, 99 cents of investment money disappears from records, which means, basically, people are not using spare money they would spend on random stuff anyway when placing these bets, they're spending money that would otherwise be put into savings, or which is already in their savings on this type of gambling—and much of that money then disappears into the pockets of these gambling platforms.This same general state of affairs has played out in other countries before the US, but things seem to be moving especially fast here in part because this isn't gambling that's limited to a physical location, it's increasingly being conducted on smartphones and other always-on-us devices, and that means it's easier to get hooked, but also that it's more accessible to more people more of the time, and the ever-present deluge of information about these topics, and about these platforms that allow us to casually place bets on said topics, make getting sucked in and sold on the idea of easy money, simpler and more likely than ever before.Show Noteshttps://www.washingtonpost.com/sports/2025/10/23/nba-chauncey-billups-terry-rozier-arrested-betting-probe/https://www.washingtonpost.com/sports/2025/11/09/emmanuel-clase-luis-ortiz-indicted-bribes/https://www.washingtonpost.com/sports/2025/12/29/sports-betting-integrity-fans/https://www.washingtonpost.com/sports/2025/10/29/player-prop-bets-nba-arrests/https://www.washingtonpost.com/sports/2025/06/14/sports-betting-athlete-abuse-online/https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_bookmakershttps://www.actionnetwork.com/online-sports-bettinghttps://nypost.com/betting/best-sports-betting-apps-usa/https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gambling_in_the_United_Stateshttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sports_bettinghttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sportsbookhttps://www.delasport.com/history-of-sports-betting/https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC7780080/https://www.espn.com/sports-betting/story/_/id/23561576/chalk-line-how-got-legalized-sports-bettinghttps://www.cnn.com/2024/05/03/sport/sports-betting-usa-impact-on-lives-spt-intlhttps://naadgs.org/history-of-sports-betting-the-transition-from-illegal-to-mainstream/https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_match-fixing_incidentshttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/History_of_gambling_in_the_United_Stateshttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Professional_and_Amateur_Sports_Protection_Act_of_1992https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gambling_in_the_United_Kingdomhttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Prediction_markethttps://users.wfu.edu/strumpks/papers/Int_Election_Betting_Formatted_FINAL_NoComments.pdfhttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Proposition_bethttps://www.axios.com/2025/12/14/sports-betting-gambling-young-men-crisishttps://www.espn.com/espn/betting/story/_/id/47337056/scandals-prediction-markets-2025-turning-point-sports-bettinghttps://www.pewresearch.org/short-reads/2025/10/02/americans-increasingly-see-legal-sports-betting-as-a-bad-thing-for-society-and-sports/ This is a public episode.

Over the holidays, we're rebroadcasting some of our favorite interviews from 2025. President Donald Trump this summer set off an unusual mid-decade redistricting scramble after he asked Republican-led states to redraw their congressional districts to give the GOP more seats in Congress. California Democrats responded with their own new map, which voters approved through Proposition 50 in November.  Scott and Marisa discuss the history of gerrymandering with Los Angeles Times writer James Rainey, taking us back to an earlier era when it was a regular part of California's political landscape.

Pastor Ché shares the moment God called him to run on April 28th, his immediate response of "God, please not this, it is impossible," and the miraculous White House invitation that came just five hours after he asked for confirmation. You'll hear his incredible story, from growing up as the son of a North Korean pastor imprisoned under communism to his own battle with drug addiction at 17. He shares the supernatural moment at a Deep Purple concert in 1973 when he encountered Jesus, walked out before the main act, and was instantly delivered from addiction. That was 52 years ago. Pastor Ché breaks down California's crisis points: Proposition 1 codifying abortion through the ninth month, transgender sanctuary state policies, teen suicide now the number one killer of youth ages 10 to 18, $5 billion spent on homelessness with $2.5 billion unaccounted for, the bullet train to nowhere that's burned through nearly $100 billion with not one foot of track laid, and defunded police departments. He lays out his vision for common-sense solutions: DOGE-style audits of every department, fully funding law enforcement, balanced environmental policies, and calling for a statewide day of prayer and fasting on day one. He's the only person of color running in a state where over 50% are people of color, has zero political background but 46 years of proven integrity, and brings a spiritual dimension focused on revival. Ty and Pastor Ché find common ground in running for office after receiving divine impressions and believing voters need to look beyond party affiliation to character and values. Pastor Ché's message is clear: California's problems are fundamentally spiritual, and it's going to take more than policy changes to bring restoration. Visit che4ca.com to support his campaign. Anyone in all 50 states can contribute. Most importantly, he asks for your prayers for California.   As always, we would like to hear from you!

"Proposition" de la Russie concernant le chercheur français Laurent Vinatier, sanctions de l'administration Trump contre Thierry Breton... Bernard Guetta, député européen Renew, est l'invité de RTL Matin. Ecoutez L'invité RTL de 7h40 avec Céline Landreau du 26 décembre 2025.Hébergé par Audiomeans.

La presse algérienne revient largement sur cette adoption de la proposition de loi criminalisant la colonisation française. « Adoption à l'unanimité » par les membres de l'APN, l'Assemblée populaire nationale en plénière, souligne le journal algérien El Moudjahid. Le média parle d'« une démarche inédite [qui va] dans le sens de la préservation de la mémoire nationale et de l'établissement des responsabilités, d'autant plus que, jusque-là, la France coloniale se refuse à reconnaître ses crimes coloniaux en Algérie ». Le journal algérien Le Soir décrit la proposition de loi : « Structurée en cinq chapitres comprenant 27 articles, [elle] s'appuie sur "les principes du droit international consacrant le droit des peuples à l'équité juridique et à la justice historique et la fin de l'impunité". » Le quotidien algérien L'Expression analyse ce « texte mémoriel aux enjeux stratégiques ». Cette proposition est « un acte fondateur de justice historique », explique le média, qui décrit le texte en deux temps. D'abord : « Sur le plan interne, l'adoption de ce texte est présentée comme un levier de renforcement du Système législatif national en matière de protection de la mémoire. (…) ». « Mais, souligne L'Expression, au-delà de sa dimension mémorielle, cette initiative revêt [aussi] des enjeux stratégiques et géopolitiques majeurs. (…) ». Ainsi « en portant le débat sur le terrain juridique, l'Algérie cherche à internationaliser la question des crimes coloniaux et à les inscrire dans les normes relatives aux crimes contre l'humanité ». À lire aussiAlgérie: le Parlement valide la loi de criminalisation de la colonisation française « Une première en Afrique » Et, cette loi criminalisant le colonialisme est aussi présentée comme « une première en Afrique », explique le journal en ligne algérien TSA. Il revient notamment sur les propos de l'expert en politique internationale Abdelkader Soufi, sur les ondes de la Radio algérienne. Le spécialiste explique que cette loi vise « à établir un cadre juridique clair pour qualifier, reconnaître et condamner les crimes commis par la puissance coloniale ».  La nouveauté dans ce texte réside dans « la classification détaillée des crimes, incluant désormais des faits longtemps marginalisés ou passés sous silence (...) » c'est-à-dire « la torture, les exécutions sommaires, les massacres de masse, les enfumades, les kidnappings et les viols » qui sont des pratiques « rarement reconnues dans les textes officiels auparavant ». Ce texte va donc au-delà de la reconnaissance symbolique, souligne la presse. Il criminalise la colonisation pour reconnaître les crimes car « la loi qualifie explicitement la colonisation française, qui s'est étendue de 1830 à 1962, de crime d'État », rappelle Afrik.com. « En cinq chapitres, elle recense les exactions commises durant cette période ». Des excuses officielles attendues de la part de la France Et, cette proposition de loi réclame notamment des « excuses officielles » de l'État français pour les crimes commis. Des excuses « présentées comme un préalable indispensable à toute "réconciliation mémorielle" entre les deux pays », souligne Afrik.com. Pour rappel, en 2021, le président français, Emmanuel Macron, avait qualifié la colonisation de l'Algérie de « crime contre l'humanité », mais sans présenter d'excuses officielles au nom de l'État français. « Une nuance que les autorités algériennes n'ont jamais cessé de souligner », commente le média. La loi prévoit également une « indemnisation complète et équitable pour les préjudices matériels et moraux causés par la colonisation. Elle appelle la France à restituer l'ensemble des archives liées à cette période ». Autre point mentionné par la proposition de loi : la décontamination des sites affectés par les essais nucléaires français. Le texte possède également des dispositions pénales qui répriment la glorification de la colonisation. « Les relations avec l'ancienne puissance coloniale demeurent fragiles » Et, les réactions de Paris sont commentées aussi. Le média Observalgerie mentionne les déclarations du Quai d'Orsay : « Paris estime que cette loi va à l'encontre de la volonté de reprise du dialogue franco-algérien et d'un travail serein sur les enjeux mémoriels ». Par ailleurs, le Quai d'Orsay a précisé que « la France n'avait pas vocation à commenter la politique intérieure algérienne. [Le Quai d'Orsay] a toutefois rappelé "l'ampleur du travail engagé par le président" Emmanuel Macron sur les questions mémorielles, notamment à travers une commission mixte d'historiens des deux pays. » Dans sa déclaration, le ministère français a également réaffirmé sa volonté de « continuer à travailler à la reprise d'un dialogue exigeant avec l'Algérie ». Ce qu'il faut retenir, souligne Afrik.com, c'est qu'« au-delà de ses effets juridiques concrets, cette loi marque un tournant : celui d'un État qui choisit de faire de la mémoire un acte législatif, et de l'histoire un enjeu pleinement politique, au moment même où les relations avec l'ancienne puissance coloniale demeurent fragiles et chargées de non-dits ».

EXCLUSIVE INTERVIEW: Assemblyman David Tangipa (R‑Clovis) is a lead plaintiff challenging California’s Proposition 50, which authorized new congressional maps. He argues the maps unfairly favor Democrats and Latino voters, violating constitutional protections. The case is currently being heard in federal court, with Tangipa at the forefront of Republican opposition.

Last spring, California voters narrowly passed Proposition 1 to reform behavioral health care across the state.It calls for a $6.4 billion bond to fund behavioral health beds and housing, and hands more money to the state to focus on treating serious mental illnesses and addiction.Now, county officials say they've been forced to cancel 21 contracts with agencies that provide preventative services.We talk about what this means for behavioral health services and community members in San Diego County.Guest:Lisa Halverstadt, senior investigative reporter, Voice of San Diego

It's Tuesday, December 16th, A.D. 2025. 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 Kevin Swanson Chinese Communists arrested 18 pastors over evangelism online Chinese Pastor Ezra Jin and 17 other pastors have been arrested by Chinese Communist authorities on charges of using illegal information networks. Translation? Putting the Gospel message on Zoom is now illegal in China.   The pastors are facing three years in prison.   A pastor's wife described the situation on the Christian Broadcasting Network. WIFE: “China opened the door for the Western society and then grow their economy. I grew up from that period of time. So, I thought we weren't gonna be put in jail because of our Christianity or our faith.” Chinese officials convicted liberty advocate Jimmy Lai Not surprisingly, those Chinese communists have convicted Hong Kong's pro-liberty advocate, Jimmy Lai, with conspiracy to collude with foreign forces. It's a charge that could put him in prison for life. This was the highest profile case since Hong Kong was turned over to the communists in 1997, and Hong Kong's democratic elections halted in 2020. China to eliminate out-of-pocket expenses for childbirth China is planning to eliminate all out-of-pocket medical costs for childbirth with the hopes of encouraging more births. China's fertility rate is dismal, hovering around 1.0. In fact, Chinese deaths have outnumbered births for three years in a row now. The countries with the lowest fertility rates in the world are Hong Kong, China, Taiwan, South Korea, Singapore, Ukraine, and Chile. Two Muslim men killed 16 Jews in Sydney, Australia On Sunday, two Muslim men, a father and son, have been identified as suspects in the killings of 16 people at a Jewish celebration of Hannukah in Sydney, Australia on Bondi Beach, reports the Associated Press. That's the worst mass shooting in Australia since the Port Arthur massacre of 1996 where 35 people were killed and 23 were injured. Providentially, a bystander of Muslim background, 43-year-old Syrian fruit shop owner, Ahmed Al-Ahmed, happened on the scene. He tackled and disarmed one of the gunmen during the deadly massacre, preventing further carnage.  Ahmed was shot in the shoulder and arm while hiding behind a tree after confronting the gunman. Australia's Prime Minister Anthony Albanese is promising “tougher gun laws” in response. Actor Rob Reiner and wife allegedly killed by son Director and actor Rob Reiner and his wife Michele were found dead Sunday, apparent victims of foul play at their home in Los Angeles, reports The L.A. Times. Sadly, Rob Reiner was an atheist, as was his father, Carl Reiner — another famous movie director.   Rob Reiner will be best remembered in the political realm for his leftist views, especially in his opposition to California's Proposition 8, and efforts to introduce homosexual marriage to the state and the country. At last report, Rob and Michele's son Nick, age 32, has been taken into custody by the Los Angeles Police Department, charged with the murder of his parents. He has a long history of drug addiction. Exodus 21:15 speaks to this sort of crime, as do Jesus's words in Matthew 15:4: “And he who strikes his father or his mother shall surely be put to death.” Little Sisters of the Poor vs. Obamacare continues After 14 years, Little Sisters of the Poor, comprised of Roman Catholic nuns, continues to object to the Obamacare mandate to provide coverage for abortifacients for their organization.    Back on July 8, 2020, the Supreme Court ruled 7–2 in favor of the Little Sisters, upholding federal rules that exempted religious organizations from the contraceptive mandate. But now, Pennsylvania and New Jersey have refused to drop their efforts to take away the Little Sisters' protection in the lower courts. Last August, a rogue federal district court in Philadelphia ruled against the Little Sisters and vacated the religious exemption rules that had protected them.  The case is in appeal to the Third Circuit Court. Bill Clinton unresponsive to Congressional subpoena over Epstein GOP House Oversight Committee Chairman James Comer announced he will initiate contempt of Congress proceedings against Bill and Hillary Clinton. At issue is the Clintons' decision to ignore the committee's subpoenas issued back in August, in relation to investigations of the Jeffrey Epstein sex trafficking scandal. Epstein visited the White House 17 times in 1993 after Bill Clinton's inauguration. Artificial Intelligence: Time Magazine's “Person of the Year” Time Magazine's Person of the Year goes to Artificial Intelligence or rather, the architects of AI. Spending on Artificial Intelligence development has increased from $40 billion to $400 billion in just the last ten years.  Nvidia's stock has increased 60-fold, while Microsoft and Alphabet, Inc. have increased 7-fold over the same timeframe. Kirk Cameron advocates unbiblical theology of annihilationism Actor and Christian celebrity Kirk Cameron suggested in his recent podcast that hell is not forever — a departure from the long-held position of an eternal punishment for those who do not trust Christ, reports The Christian Post. CAMERON: “Eternal judgment or eternal punishment doesn't necessarily mean that we are being tormented and punished forever and ever, every moment for eternity. It means that the punishment we deserve is irreversible. It's permanent; it's eternal. You're dead. You've been destroyed. You have perished. You're gone, and you're never coming back.” This theological position is called annihilationism, a belief that all damned humans and fallen angels – including demons and Satan -- will be totally destroyed and their consciousness extinguished. CAMERON: “I actually think this is a really good argument for annihilationism. Just because the righteous go to eternal life, which is the gift of God, not that the wicked are granted an eternity of punishment. The punishment of the wicked is final. It is irreversible.” Rev. Al Mohler, President of Southern Baptist Theological Seminary in Louisville, Kentucky, called the admission “sad.” And in his words: “The admonition to confess Christ or risk non-existence just doesn't pass the New Testament test, and there is a good reason it doesn't work in a sermon either. The stakes are just too low, and the fires of hell hold no eternal consequence.” At the final judgment, as recorded in Matthew 25: 41-43, Jesus said to those on His left hand: “Depart from Me, you cursed, into the everlasting fire prepared for the devil and his angels: for I was hungry and you gave Me no food; I was thirsty and you gave Me no drink; I was a stranger and you did not take Me in, naked and you did not clothe Me, sick and in prison and you did not visit Me.' … And these will go away into everlasting punishment, but the righteous into eternal life.” Imprisoned fathers reunited with daughters at dance And finally, the “God Behind Bars” organization links local churches to prisons, and reunites families, especially children with their incarcerated parents or grandparents.   This Christmas season, the organization sponsored its first Father-Daughter Dance at the Angola Louisiana State Penitentiary.    Twenty-nine fathers were reunited with their daughters that night, many of whom had not seen their daughters for years — some over a decade. The ministry calls these events "moments of restoration … and the Gospel in motion."

Republicans have sued state leaders, including Gov. Gavin Newsom and Secretary of State Shirley Weber, for the newly drawn maps, which voters approved through Proposition 50. Assemblyman David Tangipa, R-Fresno, is among the group that sued. During his first stint as president, Trump was heavily influenced by the Westlands Water District, a huge agricultural water agency in the San Joaquin Valley that sought more irrigation water for itself and other farm interests.

Religious freedom, especially for Christians, is under attack across the globe, including in the West–including right here in the United States. Whether insidiously in the form of diversity, equity, and inclusion programs that block Christians from employment and advancement opportunities, or, overtly, like vandalism against churches, or, in some parts of the world, murderous violence against Christians themselves, in terms of sheer numbers–and this fact is often ignored–Christians are, by far, the most persecuted religious group in the world. While defending religious freedom is important for people of all faiths, or no faith at all, it is thus especially urgent for believers in Christ. How, then, can we work together as a church and as a society to make progress on this front? Taking a step back, what, specifically, is religious freedom and why is it a universal human right? What is the relationship between the free exercise of religion and freedom of speech? And how can we respond to the secular charge that religious freedom is merely a backdoor means for the faithful to impose their beliefs on others? A listener asks how we can grow in confidence that Catholicism is the one true religion.

California Politics and West Coast Issues. Jeff Bliss reports on California Governor Gavin Newsom's successful Proposition 50 to reshape congressional districts, a move linked to increasing Newsom's presidential visibility. Newsom's public persona is increasingly marked by anger and profanity aimed at political opponents. Other issues include Las Vegas resorts reconsidering "nickel-and-diming" practices, ongoing regulatory hurdles delaying rebuilding in Maui, and routine fires in LA's growing homeless encampments.

Democrats are celebrating a collection of election wins across the country this week. Messaging around affordability and the cost of living scored big wins for the party in the Virginia and New Jersey governor's races, as well as mayoral races in several major cities. Will a successful off year help the party smooth over its internal disagreements heading into next year's midterms?California passed Proposition 50, a proverbial counter punch to redistricting efforts in Texas and other red states. The state's governor, Gavin Newsom, says the legislation is a temporary fix to the campaign by President Donald Trump to create more congressional seats for conservatives. Democrats promise to be the “adults in the room,” but can they deliver?Can voters really exert their power if the two major parties control the candidates they have to choose from? KCRW discusses one potential solution to the political Coke vs. Pepsi problem.

After a big win, James and Al explain why the Democrats outperformed in the off-season elections, focusing on the declining affordability of life under Trump, his anti-democratic actions, and the desire for change in the electorate.  Then, they look at the implications for the upcoming national elections, the growing headwinds to MAGA and Republican rule, and the potential to increase the share of the Hispanic vote.  They also examine the impact of statewide court decisions, the effects of redistricting following California's Proposition 50, and the state of international relations, with a focus on Israel.

Meet my friends, Clay Travis and Buck Sexton! If you love Verdict, the Clay Travis and Buck Sexton Show might also be in your audio wheelhouse. Politics, news analysis, and some pop culture and comedy thrown in too. Here’s a sample episode recapping four takeaways. Give the guys a listen and then follow and subscribe wherever you get your podcasts. It's Election Day! A high-energy Election Day edition packed with breaking political analysis and cultural commentary. Clay celebrates the release of his new book “Balls”, urging listeners to support conservative voices in publishing. The hour dives deep into the New York City mayoral race, spotlighting the shocking Donald Trump endorsement of Andrew Cuomo as a strategic move to block socialist candidate Zohran Mamdani. Clay and Buck debate whether this last-minute endorsement helps or hurts Cuomo, referencing insights from Stephen Miller and Van Jones, and warning that a split in the anti-Mamdani vote could hand victory to the far-left. The hosts analyze key battlegrounds in Virginia and New Jersey, stressing the importance of down-ballot races like Attorney General and Lieutenant Governor. They predict razor-thin margins and urge listeners nationwide to get out and vote. Discussion turns to Mamdani’s progressive promises—rent freezes, free buses, and government grocery stores—which Cuomo calls “TikTok promises” with no legal basis. Clay and Buck argue these policies would worsen crime and quality of life, drawing parallels to failed corporate virtue-signaling like Starbucks’ bathroom policy and Bud Light’s marketing missteps. Get Some Balls! Clay promotes his new book “Balls”, endorsed by President Trump, and shares plans for charitable initiatives tied to free speech advocacy. Clay and Buck analyze the high-stakes contests in New Jersey, Virginia, and New York City, emphasizing how Democrats will frame victories as a referendum on Donald Trump’s presidency, despite these being deep-blue strongholds. The hosts spotlight the New Jersey governor’s race, where Jack Ciattarelli’s chances hinge on massive Republican turnout to overcome Democrats’ early voting lead. They slam progressive policies like plastic bag bans, arguing they harm consumers and the environment, and highlight housing affordability crises caused by government mandates and rent control schemes. Our Data Guru Crunches the Early Numbers Data analyst Ryan Girdusky joins to break down record-breaking voter turnout, surging Democratic numbers in key counties, and the implications for future elections. The discussion expands to electricity price spikes, the impact of data centers, and Democrats’ strategy to nationalize local races around Trump. In New York City, the conversation centers on the mayoral showdown featuring Zohran Mamdani, whose socialist platform promises rent freezes, free buses, and government grocery stores—policies Clay and Buck call “fairy tales” that would worsen crime and quality of life. They dissect Andrew Cuomo’s failure to give Republicans a reason to support him, despite Trump’s last-minute endorsement, and warn that a Mamdani victory could embolden far-left figures like AOC to push national socialism. The hour also covers Virginia’s gubernatorial race, where Winsome Sears struggles after running a single-issue campaign on transgender bathrooms, while down-ballot races for Attorney General and Lieutenant Governor remain competitive. Gonna Be Gavin and The Empire Strikes Back The hosts revisit the stakes in New York City’s mayoral race, the Virginia and New Jersey governor contests, and California’s Proposition 50, warning that Democrats will frame any wins as a repudiation of Donald Trump’s presidency despite these being deep-blue strongholds. Clay and Buck emphasize the importance of voting and highlight how Democrats use emotional manipulation—rather than real solutions—to distract from failures on crime, cost of living, and governance.

The brothers analyze President Obama's powerful return to the campaign trail in Virginia, Governor Gavin Newsom's final push for California's critical Proposition 50, and the devastating new polls spelling disaster for Donald Trump and the GOP. Plus, they dissect Trump's disastrous and heavily edited 60 Minutes interview that even CBS couldn't salvage, and what it all reveals about the unraveling state of the MAGA movement.

Alex talks about the hottest issue leading up to next week's election….the 2026 election. California's Proposition 50 is a power play by Governor Newsom and Democrats to fight back against Republican gerrymandering in Texas, in the hopes of saving Democratic seats in Congress in the midterm elections. Now a firestorm has ignited with states across the country launching redistricting efforts, and both parties have come to play. First, Alex hears about grassroots efforts to tackle the issue from Richard von Glahn, the Executive Director of People Not Politicians in Missouri. Then she speaks to democratic strategist David Plouffe about the moral quandary Democrats find themselves in, and why our hyper partisan political environment necessitates a gloves-off approach.

A Virginia judge allowed the state's Democrats to pursue a redistricting plan on Wednesday that would permit them to amend the state's constitution and redraw its congressional districts before next year's midterm elections – despite a lawsuit from Virginia Republicans. Those Democrats are following a national trend, kicked off by President Trump. Back in August, Trump called on Texas to redraw its congressional maps ahead of the 2026 midterms in order to minimize Republican losses in the House. And after Texas redrew its maps, California Democratic Governor Gavin Newsom responded by putting forward a plan to redistrict his state through a ballot measure, Proposition 50, that would redraw California's congressional districts and push five Republicans out of their seats. Californians will be voting on the proposition on Election Day next week. To explain the fight and how the 2026 Midterms became a battle royale, I spoke with John Bisognano. He's the President of the National Democratic Redistricting Committee.And in headlines, Congress continues to prove pointless as funding for Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program benefits are set to expire for millions of Americans, the Federal Reserve cuts interest rates again, and immigration officials deport a man living in Alabama to Laos despite literally being ordered not to.Show Notes:Check out the National Democratic Redistricting Committee – democraticredistricting.com/Call Congress – 202-224-3121Subscribe to the What A Day Newsletter – https://tinyurl.com/3kk4nyz8What A Day – YouTube – https://www.youtube.com/@whatadaypodcastFollow us on Instagram – https://www.instagram.com/crookedmedia/For a transcript of this episode, please visit crooked.com/whataday Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.
