In this episode, breaking news hits Coastal Carolina University: a taxpayer-funded employee who praised the murder of Charlie Kirk and suggested Congresswoman Nancy Mace should be next is no longer employed. Tara dives into the bigger issue of tenure in higher education, asking whether state-funded professors should be shielded from accountability no matter what they say or do. Joining the conversation is Pam Evette, South Carolina's Lieutenant Governor and candidate for governor, who makes the case for ending tenure at state schools, empowering students to push back against bias in the classroom, and using financial leverage to drive change. The discussion also turns to illegal immigration enforcement, comparing South Carolina's approach to Florida's “all officers deputized” model, and whether similar steps could soon come to the Palmetto State. This fast-moving episode unpacks how colleges, politics, and law enforcement intersect — and what accountability should look like for those in positions of power.

Frequent mass shootings are a distinctly American problem, with news of another tragic shooting grabbing our attention every few weeks. Yet policy change is stalled.In this episode, we focus on an important reason for the congressional paralysis—the gun lobby. John Donohue, one of the country's leading experts on the empirical study of law and public policy, and Eric Baldwin, a research fellow at Stanford Law, join us for a discussion about their new research paper, "Another Shooting, Another Contribution From the Gun Lobby." They reveal how both gun rights and gun safety PACs flood competitive districts with donations in the wake of deadly shootings. The result? A high-stakes stalemate that helps preserve the status quo, despite overwhelming public support for measures like universal background checks. With Donohue's decades of scholarship on crime and policy and Baldwin's insights into political science and lobbying, the episode offers a timely look at how money and ideology shape one of the country's most polarizing debates and offers an examination of a grim reality: mass shootings have become more frequent, but meaningful reform rarely follows. Against the backdrop of rising political violence, the conversation probes the sometimes-surprising role of campaign donations and interest-group maneuvering in shaping what legislators do—or fail to do—after mass shooting tragedy.Links:John Donohue >>> Stanford Law pageEric Baldwin >>> Stanford Law pageTakuma Iwasaki >>> Stanford Law page“Financial Firepower: School Shootings and the Strategic Contributions of Pro-Gun Pacs” >>> Stanford Law pageConnect:Episode Transcripts >>> Stanford Legal Podcast WebsiteStanford Legal Podcast >>> LinkedIn PageRich Ford >>>  Twitter/XPam Karlan >>> Stanford Law School PageDiego Zambrano >>> Stanford Law School PageStanford Law School >>> Twitter/XStanford Lawyer Magazine >>> Twitter/X(00:00) Introductions and The Role of Different Gun Lobby Groups(10:01) Impact of Mass Shootings on Public Discourse (18:01) Political Reactions and Misinformation (25:01) Empirical Findings and Study Insights (30:01) Potential Changes in Public and Political Attitudes Towards Gun Violence Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

This episode begins with Mary and Andrew digesting the 2-1 decision from the Fifth Circuit Court of Appeals halting the Trump administration's ability to use the Alien Enemies Act to deport Venezuelan nationals accused of being members of Tren de Aragua. Andrew calls the administration's recent arguments “outlandish” before moving to the questionable legality of the U.S. military's deadly boat strike last week – an unprecedented action which left eleven dead. Next, they move to Monday's Supreme Court decision undoing limits set by a lower court on how ICE conducts immigration raids. Plus, a federal judge issues a win for Harvard University on the topic of frozen and terminated funds. Further reading:  The 5th Circuit Court of Appeals' ruling on Trump's invocation of the Alien Enemies Act to deport VenezuelansAnd a reminder: tickets are on sale now for MSNBC Live – our second live community event featuring more than a dozen MSNBC hosts.

Erik brings decades of experience in counter-drone warfare, urban operations, and emerging threat environments, with direct insight from years spent training Ukrainian forces and advising on counter-unmanned systems. Kramer explains how drones and unmanned systems are fundamentally transforming warfare and crisis response — creating a “revolution in military affairs.” Drawing from his time in Iraq, Afghanistan, and Ukraine, he shares how decision-making is shifting from senior leaders to junior operators who must act instantly under drone threats. He warns that the U.S. and local agencies remain woefully unprepared for a September 11th–style event involving unmanned systems, and stresses the urgent need for counter-UAS training, decentralized decision-making, and survivor-first leadership. Beyond drones, Kramer highlights the often-overlooked risks of subterranean operations in cities — from tunnels and underground infrastructure to complex dense-urban terrain — and how NCOU is working with ports, first responders, and military units to build awareness, create tailored counter-drone strategies, and deliver advanced training. This episode connects lessons from Ukraine, Special Forces culture, and emerging technologies directly to emergency managers, first responders, and policymakers who must adapt to an era where drones, cyber, and underground threats redefine homeland security.

From undercover narcotics operations to revolutionizing firearms training, Brian Stahl takes us through his remarkable 20-year journey in law enforcement and his unexpected pivot to politics.Brian's career path took many unexpected turns—from scholarship football player sidelined by injury to deep undercover narcotics investigator who faced down drug dealers with guns in his face. Throughout his story, a common thread emerges: communication saves lives. Whether talking down armed suspects or building rapport with informants, Brian's ability to connect with people proved invaluable in his police work.The conversation shifts to Brian's groundbreaking work in firearms training, where he's helping transform how officers prepare for real-world encounters. He explains why static range training fails officers in dynamic situations and how red dot technology has dramatically improved accuracy rates from a dismal 20% to nearly 80%. Brian challenges outdated training philosophies like "slow is smooth, smooth is fast," arguing that officers need to train at speed to perform under pressure.Most surprisingly, Brian reveals his current campaign for U.S. Congress. Drawing on his experience in law enforcement, he advocates for transparency, accountability, and better communication between elected officials and constituents. His vision includes judicial reform addressing revolving-door bail policies and greater support for first responders through improved training and equipment.Through personal anecdotes about family sacrifice, career setbacks, and unexpected opportunities, Brian's story offers powerful lessons about servant leadership and adapting to change. Whether in policing or politics, his message remains consistent: effective service requires listening to people's needs and communicating solutions clearly.#police #lawenforcement #cops #policemonitor #policeoversight #policeoversightmonitor #bridgethegap #bethechange Join our Discord!! https://discord.gg/BdjeTEAc

WITF Democracy Reporter Jordan Wilkie discussed his report on Pennsylvania activist Heather Honey, who is moving from leading election conspiracy groups to a top elections policy role at the U.S. Department of Homeland Security. Elections experts have raised concerns that Honey’s appointment could undermine federal election support and public confidence. “The appointment of Heather Honey is just confirmation that DHS has gone from being one of the most credible supporters of American election integrity to potentially a purveyor of disinformation,” said David Becker, head of the Center for Election Innovation & Research. Next, WITF Capitol Reporter Jaxon White weighed in on Pennsylvania’s upcoming Supreme Court retention elections. Three Democratic justices—Christine Donohue, Kevin Dougherty, and David Wecht—face voters this November. Supporters, including legal expert Shanin Specter, argue the justices rule impartially and deserve to keep their seats, while Republican groups are campaigning against them citing key decisions on abortion, mail-in voting, and redistricting. Finally, PennLive reporters Jenna Wise and Jonathan Bergmueller discussed a Labor Day weekend incident at Harrisburg’s Kipona festival, where a car ran into a crowd, injuring three people, including a 6-year-old child.Support WITF: https://www.witf.org/support/give-now/See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Marc and Dan are joined by Missouri Governor Mike Kehoe to discuss the special legislative session focused on redrawing congressional maps, including efforts to make districts more compact and reshape the 5th district in Kansas City.

On this episode of "The Valley Today," host Janet Michael welcomed Captain Warren Gosnell of the Frederick County Sheriff's Office for a lively and insightful discussion that went far beyond the usual public safety bulletin. The conversation began with a heartfelt congratulations to Captain Gosnell for his recent award, setting the tone for a candid exploration of what recognition means in the world of law enforcement. Goz reflected on his journey from a self-described average student and band member to a leader in public safety, emphasizing the importance of teamwork and the often-overlooked support systems behind every accolade. The heart of the episode delved into the realities of traffic safety—a topic both host and guest are passionate about. Janet raised a question about school bus safety at intersections, prompting Captain Gosnell to clarify Virginia's laws and the critical importance of stopping for school buses from all directions. Their discussion highlighted not just the letter of the law, but the spirit behind it: protecting children and fostering a culture of caution and care on the roads. The conversation took a sobering turn as they addressed recent traffic fatalities in the region, including tragic incidents involving motorcycles and high-speed pursuits. Captain Gosnell provided a behind-the-scenes look at the complexities officers face, from the split-second decisions during pursuits to the aftermath of fatal crashes. He debunked common myths about speed limits and the so-called “flow of traffic,” urging listeners to trust the expertise of engineers and law enforcement rather than internet rumors. Humor and humanity were never far from the surface. Janet and Goz shared personal stories—ranging from field day disappointments to the frustrations of social media trolls—reminding listeners that those in uniform are people first, with their own doubts, triumphs, and moments of self-reflection. The conversation closed with practical advice on managing road rage, the importance of patience, and the value of community conversations in making the roads safer for everyone.

Mike Lomas and Glenn Wiggle rip into the chaos of Democrat-run cities, exposing how crime statistics are being manipulated while violence actually worsens. From D.C.'s soaring murder rate to California's crumbling streets, they argue that lenient sentencing and bail reform are fueling lawlessness by design—just another path to more gun control and government power.
