What happens when the police stop responding — and activists take over the streets? Tara breaks down shocking footage out of Minneapolis showing alleged vigilante roadblocks, ID checks, and license plate scans carried out by Antifa-aligned groups while emergency calls go unanswered. She's joined by Rep. Nancy Mace to discuss escalating political violence, ignored death threats, and a justice system that many conservatives believe has stopped protecting them.
A carrier vanishes from the road, sells its MC, and reappears just long enough to “accept” a $3.8M server load. Sounds absurd—until you see how often the digital record diverges from real-world behavior. We sit down with Genlogs CEO Ryan Joyce to unpack their $60M Series B and the larger vision: an all-source intelligence platform that fuses roadside cameras, satellite imagery, IoT signals, open datasets, and financial clues into one reliable source of truth.We walk through why data quality—not flashy demos—determines AI ROI in logistics. Ryan breaks down how Genlogs' nationwide camera network establishes ground truth, then correlates it with other signals to expose mismatches: carriers that stop appearing on highways, fleets that claim 200 trucks online while their physical footprint stays flat, or flatbed operators suddenly “hauling” high-value electronics in dry vans across the country. These anomalies are the breadcrumbs that prevent theft and steer teams away from risky tenders. More importantly, the same signals power precision sourcing—finding the one carrier in the right city with the right equipment today—so you can stop blasting a hundred calls to cover one load.The conversation expands beyond fraud. Ports use the platform to measure dwell at the gate, improve turn times, and identify BCOs draining cargo from neighboring gateways. Insurers, lenders, and truck sales and service centers get access to verifiable activity data that refines underwriting, targeting, and revenue planning. With fresh capital, Genlogs is sequencing a multi-product roadmap, expanding coverage into Mexico and Canada, and staying disciplined on spend to protect quality and customer trust.If you care about accurate carrier validation, fewer costly mistakes, and sourcing that actually lands on the first or second call, this conversation offers a practical blueprint.

(Presented by Material Security: We protect your company's most valuable materials -- the emails, files, and accounts that live in your Google Workspace and Microsoft 365 cloud offices.) Three Buddy Problem - Episode 83: Poland's CERT documents a rare, explicit wiper attack on civilians in a NATO country, including detailed attribution of a Russian government op targeting the electric grid in the heart of winter. We examine why this crosses a long-avoided threshold, why attribution suddenly matters again, and what it says about pre-positioned access, vendor insecurity, and the shrinking gap between cyber operations and acts of war. Plus, another Fortinet fiasco, a new batch of Ivanti zero-days under attack, an emergency patch from Microsoft and the return of the mysterious KasperSekrets account.

Drake Maye raises some eyebrows
Fresno Unified School District trustees are set to receive a 113% pay increase beginning February 1, raising their monthly stipend from $2,111 to $4,500 despite the district facing years of projected budget deficits and declining enrollment. The 6–1 board vote follows the enactment of Assembly Bill 1390, which lifted long‑standing limits on school board compensation. Supporters say the raise reflects the demands of the role, while critics argue it’s poorly timed as the district struggles financially.

When most founders look at markets dominated by Google or Apple, they see a dead end. Ariel Seidman saw an opening. Before founding Hivemapper, Ariel helped scale Yahoo Maps during a period when search and mapping were rapidly evolving. That experience gave him a front-row seat to how large-scale mapping systems are built — and how technical, capital, and organizational constraints shape the pace of innovation at scale. In this episode, he breaks down what it really takes to build a startup against giants: why data moats matter more than UI, how to layer products instead of attacking incumbents head-on, and how insider knowledge can become an unfair advantage — if you're willing to unlearn Big Tech habits that don't translate to startups. We also dig into Hivemapper's decentralized approach to mapping, the role of physical AI and real-world data, the tradeoffs behind crypto incentives, and why the future of maps looks more like a spatial intelligence platform than a navigation app. If you're thinking about taking what you've learned inside Big Tech and applying it to your own startup, this is a conversation you'll want to hear.

Chicago's brilliant plan: raise hotel taxes to the highest in America to *boost tourism*. If you had to read that five times, same. The city wants to jack hotel taxes from 17.5% to 19%—making it more expensive than anywhere else in the country—to generate $40 million for marketing "Choose Chicago." Because nothing says "come visit" like the nation's highest hotel tax, 10,000 businesses fleeing the area, massive property tax hikes, kids looting stores on the Magnificent Mile, and a person shot every 4 minutes. Meanwhile, Boeing just dumped their Chicago headquarters at a massive loss, and the Bears are looking to bolt for Indiana. But sure, let's compete with Vegas by making conventions MORE expensive. This isn't a misconception—it's reality. Does anyone on Chicago's city council understand basic economics?

Jason highlights the notable differences between the departures of Mike Tomlin and John Harbaugh. Jason notes that Tomlin hasn't addressed the media expounding on his decision. He failed to lean into faith, which is a hallmark of his personality. Pittsburgh Steelers owner Art Rooney II speculated that Tomlin's decision was probably more family-related than football-related, without explanation. The Athletic published an article highlighting the players' emotional response to Tomlin's announcement, with Aaron Rodgers and T.J. Watt in tears. Why were the players so taken aback? Did he feel disrespected by the Steelers hierarchy? Just as importantly, could it be because of persistent rumors of issues with his personal life that Tomlin has avoided media interaction? Two years ago, Caitlin Clark was making her WNBA debut. The league was garnering unprecedented media coverage, and TV ratings were soaring, with venues packed to watch Clark. Today, Clark has been minimized, the league is in a labor deadlock, Unrivaled first-week ratings tanked, and Jason claims this is just another matriarchal implosion. Coach J.B. joins Jason to talk about Tomlin's strange departure, the NFL playoffs, head coaching openings, and Lamar Jackson.

“America's Job Market Has Entered the Slow Lane”—that was a recent Wall Street Journal headline. Most of the mainstream media echoes this interpretation, but the reality is much better than the headlines suggest. In fact, it's as if the reporters who wrote those headlines didn't read beyond the headline of the jobs report. Here's what the Dec. 2025 jobs report actually showed: ✅People working multiple part-time jobs exchanged them for single full-time jobs in December. ✅During nearly the entire final year of the Biden admin, annual native-born employment was in the red. In 2025, native-born employment beat foreign-born employment by over 1.6 million. ✅The federal workforce is the smallest it's been since 2014. “So, despite all the naysayers, Trump's first year back at the helm saw a labor market undergo badly needed structural changes that are making Americans better off… If we keep up with tax reform, regulatory reform, and energy reform, economic growth will turn into a rocket sled on rails.” For more videos like this, subscribe to The Daily Signal's YouTube channel and enable notifications to be alerted the second a new video drops: https://www.youtube.com/dailysignal?sub_confirmation=1 Learn more about your ad choices.

A measles outbreak in South Carolina is sparking intense debate over vaccination policies, religious exemptions, and vaccine efficacy.
The Giants finally have a real head coach, and everything feels different. Evan, Tiki, and Sean debate how much the John Harbaugh hire should immediately raise expectations in Year 1. Is a winning season the floor, or is it fair to expect playoff contention right away? The guys dive into what this move means for Joe Shane, how tough the NFC really is, why meaningful football in December matters, and whether Giants fans should aim high or stay patient. One thing is clear: the bar has officially been raised in New York with John Harbaugh now leading the franchise.
