Corey duBrowa spent much of his career advising some of the world's most scrutinized leaders — from Howard Schultz at Starbucks and Marc Benioff at Salesforce to Sundar Pichai at Google. Now, as CEO of global communications firm Burson, he's helping executives navigate a charged marketplace shaped by AI disruption, ICE activity, and nonstop reputational risk. duBrowa explains why reputation remains one of the most powerful (and most misunderstood) assets in business, and how leaders should decide whether, when, and how to speak up.Visit the Rapid Response website here: https://www.rapidresponseshow.com/See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

This episode is a full-on “the headline is the least important part” takedown. We break down how the U.S. manufacturing side of the jobs data is quietly screaming recession (32 straight months of declines… yeah, that's a thing), while the media does victory laps on top-line numbers like we're not all watching the revisions come in later with a chair and popcorn. Then we get into the weirdest plot twist of the labor market: retirees are re-entering and grabbing new roles at rising rates, while under-25 workers are fading from the “new job” pipeline—because apparently the American Dream is now a part-time shift… after you already retired. Add in the usual THS spice: AI hype, crypto whiplash, and the “sensational headlines vs. reality” problem that keeps everyone emotional and nobody informed.

You're listening to American Ground Radio with Louis R. Avallone and Stephen Parr. This is the full show for February 11, 2026. 0:30 An unprecedented national security moment at the southern border. We break down the stunning FAA decision to shut down airspace over El Paso and parts of southern New Mexico after cartel-linked drones crossed into U.S. airspace from Mexico. Commercial flights grounded, the military quietly neutralizing the threat, and comparisons to 9/11 and historic cross-border attacks raise a chilling question: was this a probe for something much bigger? From Mexican drug cartels and drone warfare to terrorism designations and the real possibility of U.S. military action, this is not routine border chaos — it’s a warning sign of escalation that could reshape border security, U.S.–Mexico relations, and America’s response to cartel terrorism. 9:30 Plus, we cover the Top 3 Things You Need to Know. President Trump has sent home National Guard troops deployed to several high crime cities across America.These include Portland, Los Angeles, and Chicago. The FAA closed the airspace around El Paso earlier this week for an unspecified security reason. A Grand Jury has refused to indict six Democrats who made a video encouraging members of the military to refuse orders given by President Trump. 12:30 Get Prodovite Plus from Victory Nutrition International for 20% off. Go to vni.life/agr and use the promo code AGR20. 13:00 House Republicans pass the SAVE Act—again—mandating proof of citizenship and voter ID for federal elections, and once again it heads straight for a Senate roadblock. We take aim at Democrats’ near-unanimous opposition, the handful of states that still don’t require voter ID, and the growing frustration with Senate leadership refusing to force the issue. Is verifying voters really “voter suppression,” or just common sense election integrity? 16:00 Did you swear you’d never turn into your parents… and then realize you already have? In this American Mamas segment, Terry Netterville and Kimberly Burleson jump into a candid, funny, and surprisingly heartfelt conversation about parenting, boundaries, and the habits we promised ourselves we wouldn’t repeat. From “because I said so” moments and helicopter parenting to free-range childhoods, united fronts, and good cop–bad cop dynamics, the discussion hits home for moms and dads alike. It’s an honest look at generational parenting, raising kids without a blueprint, and why every parent eventually hears, “I’m never doing that with my kids”… right before they do exactly that. If you'd like to ask our American Mamas a question, go to our website, AmericanGroundRadio.com/mamas and click on the Ask the Mamas button. 23:00 A blunt warning from across the Atlantic—and a debate Americans shouldn’t ignore. We react to comments from British billionaire Sir Jim Ratcliffe, who says the UK is being “colonized by immigrants” and warns you can’t sustain an economy with millions on government benefits and open borders. From eye-opening wealth comparisons between Britain and the U.S. to free speech crackdowns, mass immigration, and the failure of Europe’s multicultural experiment, the conversation draws sharp lines between border security, national identity, and economic survival. Is Britain saying out loud what many Western nations refuse to confront? 25:30 A deeper dive into the jobs numbers reveals a story the headlines missed. We break down the latest U.S. jobs report and why what’s inside the data matters more than the top-line figures. Private-sector job growth surged while government payrolls shrank to levels not seen since the 1960s, wages are once again rising faster than inflation, and native-born Americans are gaining jobs as foreign-born employment declines. From shrinking bureaucracy and “deep state” influence to AI’s impact on wages, tariffs, reshoring manufacturing, and real wage growth under Trump, this is a data-driven look at why the economy may be stronger—and more America First—than the media wants to admit. 32:00 Get Performlyte from Victory Nutrition International for 20% off. Go to vni.life/agr and use the promo code AGR20. 32:30 Hollywood accounting meets hard reality. We pull back the curtain on Disney’s woke remake of Snow White and why the numbers tell a brutal story Hollywood doesn’t want you to see. Thanks to UK transparency rules, Forbes was able to expose an estimated $170 million loss—turning a beloved classic into a financial bloodbath. From sneaky studio bookkeeping and royalty checks no one can verify to audiences rejecting political lectures at the box office, the message is clear: go woke, go broke. Audiences are finally voting with their wallets. 35:30 A shocking civics failure inside a state legislature sparks a much bigger debate. We react to a North Carolina sheriff who couldn’t identify the basic branches of government during a legislative hearing tied to a deadly crime—and why that moment exposes a deeper problem in American leadership. The conversation turns to Congressman Wesley Hunt’s proposal to require members of Congress to pass a basic civics test, similar to the citizenship exam. From constitutional ignorance and oath-taking to accountability for elected officials, this is a blunt discussion about why you shouldn’t hold power if you don’t understand the Constitution—and why civic literacy may be the missing safeguard in American government. 39:30 A Team USA bobsled athlete and U.S. Air Force airman Jasmine Jones' pride in representing her country stands in sharp contrast to athletes who criticize America on the world stage. Her words about service, sacrifice, and honor strike a powerful chord—showing what it really means to wear “USA” across your chest. 41:30 And we finish off with some words of wisdom about how the country actually works.

In this episode, Paul sits down for a wide-ranging conversation that traces his journey from physical education teacher to multi-level basketball official — and ultimately to building Crown Refs as a global education and mentorship platform. He opens up about his early years in officiating, the mistakes and gaps that shaped him, and how struggles with game management and coach communication became the catalyst for the Rapid Response system. Paul also reflects, quietly but honestly, on navigating early resistance and criticism as the platform grew — choosing humility, consistency, and purpose over ego, and trusting that impact would win out over time.The discussion dives into practical, on-court teaching: how to communicate rulings without over-talking, why conviction matters more than convincing, and how to balance rulebook language with coach-friendly explanations. Paul breaks down some of the hardest calls in the game, shares insights on anticipation and positioning, and explains why modern officiating requires both technical sharpness and emotional intelligence. The episode closes with a look ahead at the Crown Refs Skill Development Camp in Fort Wayne, highlighting a holistic approach to growth — signals, movement, communication, leadership, and character — all grounded in the belief that the best officials keep getting better, one possession at a time.⛺️ Register for the Crown Refs Skill Development Camphttps://stan.store/crownrefs/p/crown-refs-skill-development-camp-tmq5jdse

Episode 165: Re-release, Episode 33 of the American Grown Podcast in the Colortech Creative Solutions studios with Rebekah Gundrum U.S. Navy Vet & Owner of Triggered22.In this episode, I re-released episode 33 featuring Rebekah Gundrum owner of Triggered 22 and U.S. Navy Veteran. She shares a raw and courageous story of service, survival, and healing.After a 20-year Navy career and a deployment to Iraq in 2011, Rebekah opens up about the long nights overseas—trying to rest while mortars hit around her compound, some landing inside the wire. Like many veterans, she carried those invisible wounds home. With the encouragement of her oldest daughter, Taylor, Rebekah sought help and was diagnosed with PTSD.Her journey toward healing led her to Northwest Battle Buddies, where she met her service dog Trigger—a constant companion who has helped her reclaim peace, confidence, and purpose. With Trigger always watching her six, Rebekah made a powerful decision: stop surviving and start living.That decision became Triggered 22, an apparel brand and movement dedicated to raising awareness for PTSD, veteran suicide prevention, and the strength found in vulnerability.This episode is about courage, family, service, and turning pain into purpose—so others know they are not alone.Triggered 22SHOW SPONSORS:College Knowledge Foundation.

//The Wire//2300Z January 29, 2026////ROUTINE////BLUF: VEHICLE RAMMING ATTACK CONDUCTED IN BROOKLYN. ANTI-ICE PROTESTS CONTINUE AS BEFORE.// -----BEGIN TEARLINE------HomeFront-USA: Around the nation, anti-ICE protests and demonstrations continue as before. Civil disruption efforts of varying intensity were carried out over the past couple of days in the usual hotspots: Minneapolis, New York, Eugene (OR), etc. Smaller demonstrations of varying size were also noted overnight in Connecticut, Missouri, Florida, Ohio, Texas, Virginia, Wisconsin, California, and Tennessee.New York: Yesterday evening a vehicle ramming attack was conducted at the entrance to the Chabad Lubavitch World Headquarters in Crown Heights, Brooklyn. The assailant attempted to ram his vehicle into one of the subterranean entrances to the facility, ramming into the underground gate several times before being halted. The suspect was detained by police who were providing security for the venue, and later identified as Dan Sohail of New Jersey. Immediately after the incident, a federal civil rights investigation was opened regarding this case.California: Last night a state of unrest was reported at a Korean BBQ in Lynwood, after ICEWatch intelligence networks falsely identified off-duty TSA agents as ICE agents. After a group of off-duty TSA agents were spotted at the restaurant having dinner, backup was called in to the activists dispatch cell, and Rapid Response teams were sent to demonstrate in the parking lot. After some time local law enforcement was also dispatched to the scene, to assist the off-duty TSA agents in departing from the establishment.-----END TEARLINE-----Analyst Comments: While the individuals targeted in California were obviously not ICE agents, they were still federal agents wearing civilian clothes, so the intelligence networks which identified and targeted them were not that far off the mark. However, targeting random clean-cut guys with fade haircuts, polo shirts, and khakis...in southern California...is not going to work out so well when they inevitably target the wrong crowd by mistake. This has been a wider concern nationwide, following the spooling-up of targeting efforts in Minneapolis, which involve vigilante activists targeting anybody they suspect of being ICE, assumptions which most of the time are false. However, the scale of these efforts is still a major concern; operations which are laughable can become quite serious when these networks are functioning in every major city in the country, with hundreds if not thousands of "whistles behind every blade of grass"...so to speak. While these efforts are quite silly to most people, these vigilante activists are more than willing to die for their cause, which is a detail that should not be underestimated.Analyst: S2A1Research: https://publish.obsidian.md/s2undergroundDisclaimer: No LLMs were used in the writing of this report.//END REPORT//

At the beginning of December 2026: ICE announced an enforcement surge in the Twin Cities.January 6, 2026: DHS announced what it called the largest immigration enforcement operation ever carried out, sending 2,000 agents to the Minneapolis–Saint Paul metropolitan area.

Two Target employees forced to the ground, then into SUV, then dumped in different parking lotJanuary 14, 2026: A different ICE agent shoots and injures a man in north Minneapolis; the man survives after being shot in the leg. This second shooting further intensifies public anger and calls for an end to the federal surgeJanuary 17, 2026: National Anger Spills Into Target Stores, AgainJanuary 22, 2026: Target Store Staff Are Skipping Work Over ICE's Crackdown in MinnesotaJanuary 23, 2026: A statewide Day of Truth & Freedom / Minnesota general strike is held, described as the first U.S. general strike in about 80 years, explicitly targeting ICE operations and Operation Metro Surge. On that day, many workers, businesses, schools, and institutions in Minneapolis and across Minnesota participate in work stoppages, marches, and large rallies against federal immigration enforcement.January 24, 2026: Federal Border Patrol agents assigned to the metro surge shoot and kill Alex Jeffrey PrettiJanuary 25, 2026: The Minnesota Chamber of Commerce released this letter on behalf of more than 60 CEOs of Minnesota-based companies today.Eight people have died in dealings with ICE so far in 2026. Keith Porter, Parady La, Heber Sanchaz Domínguez, Victor Manuel Diaz, Luis Beltran Yanez-Cruz, Luis Gustavo Nunez Caceres, and Geraldo Lunas Campos. The high-profile fatal shootings follow the deaths of at least 32 people in ICE custody in 2025 – the highest number since 2004.Minnesota CEOs Seek De-Escalation After Border Police Shooting“The business community in Minnesota prides itself in providing leadership and solving problems to ensure a strong and vibrant state. The recent challenges facing our state have created widespread disruption and tragic loss of life. For the past several weeks, representatives of Minnesota's business community have been working every day behind the scenes with federal, state and local officials to advance real solutions. These efforts have included close communication with the Governor, the White House, the Vice President and local mayors. There are ways for us to come together to foster progress. With yesterday's tragic news, we are calling for an immediate deescalation of tensions and for state, local and federal officials to work together to find real solutions. We have been working for generations to build a strong and vibrant state here in Minnesota and will do so in the months and years ahead with equal and even greater commitment. In this difficult moment for our community, we call for peace and focused cooperation among local, state and federal leaders to achieve a swift and durable solution that enables families, businesses, our employees, and communities across Minnesota to resume our work to build a bright and prosperous future. “3M – William Brown, Chairman and CEOAmeriprise Financial – James Cracchiolo, Chairman and CEOAPi Group – Russell Becker, CEOBest Buy – Corie Barry, CEO C.H.

The future may not be knowable, but it is inventable—and it belongs to those who dare to imagine what's possible.”Managing Directors: 5 dudes (3 stanford; 3 harvard)Founder Vinod Khosla: “I agree with @EthanChoi7. Macho ICE vigilantes running amuck empowered by a conscious-less administration. The video was sickening to watch and the storytelling without facts or with invented fictitious facts by authorities almost unimaginable in a civilized society. ICE personnel must have ice water running thru their veins to treat other human beings this way. There is politics but humanity should transcend that”Target's incoming CEO Michael Fiddelke in a video message sent to employees (January 26, 2026): “Right now, as someone who is raising a family here in the Twin Cities and as a leader of this hometown company I want to acknowledge where we are. The violence and loss of life in our community is incredibly painful. I know it's weighing heavily on many of you across the country, as it is with me. What's happening affects us not just as a company but as people, as neighbors, friends and family members.”A company spokesman declined to comment. Still nothing official on website.Lloyd Vogel, CEO Garage Grown Gear: said he felt compelled to condemn the shootings in a LinkedIn post because he lives and works in the Twin Cities. "My primary rationale was to show solidarity with my community," he told Business Insider. "It's also just bad for business when people are afraid to leave their homes.""There's so much fear in Minnesota right now," he said. "It would just be cowardice to not have a perspective on this."JPMorgan Chase CEO and Chair Jamie Dimon 1/22/26 Davos): ″I don't like what I'm seeing, five grown men beating up a little old lady. So I think we should calm down a little bit on the internal anger about immigration… We need these people. They work in our hospitals and hotels and restaurants and agriculture, and they're good people.… They should be treated that way.”On Saturday evening (1/24/2026), top technology executives gathered in Washington to attend a screening of “Melania,” a documentary produced by Amazon about the first lady, Melania Trump. Black-tie event: guests were handed monogrammed buckets of popcorn, framed screening tickets for their trophy shelves, and a limited-edition copy of Trump's 2024 book of the same title as her documentary, “Melania.“Among them was Andy Jassy, the chief executive of Amazon; Tim Cook, the chief executive of Apple; and Lisa Su, the chief executive of chip maker AMD.Also: Eric Yuan – CEO, Zoom; Lynn Martin – President, New York Stock Exchange; General Electric CEO Larry CulpApple CEO Tim Cook says it's 'time for de-escalation' in MinneapolisCook came under fire for appearing at The White House just hours after federal immigration authorities killed Alex Pretti, a veterans' nurse, in Minnesota“This is a time for de-escalation,” Cook wrote to Apple staff. “I believe America is strongest when we live up to our highest ideals, when we treat everyone with dignity and respect no matter who they are or where they're from, and when we embrace our shared humanity.”Cook said he “had a good conversation with the president this week where I shared my views, and I appreciate his openness to engaging on issues that matter to us all." Apple's Cook says he's ‘heartbroken' by Minneapolis events and has spoken with TrumpOpen AI CEO Sam Altman (1/27/26): I love the US and its values of democracy and freedom and will be supportive of the country however I can; OpenAI will too. But part of loving the country is the American duty to push back against overreach. What's happening with ICE is going too far. There is a big difference between deporting violent criminals and what's happening now, and we need to get the distinction right. President Trump is a very strong leader, and I hope he will rise to this moment and unite the country. I am encouraged by the last few hours of response and hope to see trust rebuilt with transparent investigations. As a company, we aim to stick to our convictions and not get blown around by changing fashions too much. We didn't become super woke when that was popular, we didn't start talking about masculine corporate energy when that was popular, and we are not going to make a lot of performative statements now about safety or politics or anything else. But we are going to continue to try to figure out how to actually do the right thing as best as we can, engage with leaders and push for our values, and speak up clearly about it as needed.James Dyett, Global Business at OpenAI: “There is far more outrage from tech leaders over a wealth tax than masked ICE agents terrorizing communities and executing civilians in the streets. Tells you what you need to know about the values of our industry.”Angel Investor Jason Calacanis: Once again, I will remind everyone that our leaders are failing us. True leadership would be to calm this situation down by telling these non-peaceful protestors to stay home while recalling these inadequately-trained agents.”Jeff Dean, Chief Scientist, Google DeepMind & Google Research. Gemini Lead: “This is absolutely shameful. Agents of a federal agency unnecessarily escalating, and then executing a defenseless citizen whose offense appears to be using his cell phone camera. Every person regardless of political affiliation should be denouncing this.”Jeffrey Sonnenfeld, senior associate dean for leadership studies at the Yale School of Management: "CEOs are feeling the community pressure." He said that reactions that convey sorrow and don't mention Trump or ICE are likely to be perceived as an unwelcome challenge to the White House's immigration agenda. "That is not what the Trump administration wanted," he said.Business Roundtable CEO Joshua Bolten asked to comment on the chaos in Minneapolis: replied with a statement endorsing the Minnesota Chamber's call for "cooperation between state, local, and federal authorities to immediately de-escalate the situation in Minneapolis."Robert Pasin, CEO of toy company Radio Flyer: recently shared an email on LinkedIn that he sent to his employees that was critical of the shootings in Minneapolis: "I am deeply concerned about the current state of our democracy, and the continued actions we are seeing from President Trump and his administration that are intended to undermine democratic institutions, the rule of law, and the norms that hold our country together."Dario Amodei, CEO Anthropic: called the events in Minnesota a “horror” on Monday. An Anthropic spokeswoman said the company did not have contracts with ICE.ICEout.tech statement from January 24, 2026: "We condemn the Border Patrol's killing of Alex Pretti and the violent surge of federal agents across our cities. The wanton brutality we've seen from ICE and CBP has removed any credibility that these actions are about immigration enforcement. Their goal is terror, cruelty, and suppression of dissent. This must end. Tech professionals are speaking up against this brutality, and we call on all our colleagues who share our values to use their voice. We know our industry leaders have leverage: in October, they persuaded Trump to call off a planned ICE surge in San Francisco, and big tech CEOs are in the White House tonight. Now they need to go further, and join us in demanding ICE out of all of our cities." 811: 508 names; 19 one name with title, 284 role onlyReid Hoffman says business leaders are wrong to stay silent about the Trump administrationThe LinkedIn cofounder and tech investor said in an episode of the "Rapid Response" podcast published Tuesday that he rejects the idea that executives can simply wait out political turbulence: "The theory that if you just keep your mouth shut, the storm will blow over and it won't be a problem — you should be disabused of that theory now," Hoffman said.Palantir Defends Work With ICE to Staff Following Killing of Alex Pretti: Leadership defended its work as in part improving “ICE's operational effectiveness.”

//The Wire//2100Z January 24, 2026////PRIORITY////BLUF: ICE-INVOLVED SHOOTING REPORTED IN MINNEAPOLIS AS ARMED SUSPECT ATTEMPTED TO SHOOT ICE AGENTS DURING ALTERCATION.// -----BEGIN TEARLINE------HomeFront-Minnesota: This morning a DHS-involved shooting was reported at 2614 Nicollet Ave in Minneapolis. The engagement was captured on video, which showed a suspect fighting with agents for some time before shots were fired.Immediately after the shooting, Rapid Response teams from Defend612 and ICEWatch maneuvered into the area, and occupied the Key Terrain around the shooting site. Rioters began gathering in the parking lot to the East of Nicollet Avenue, while other forces took up position on the perimeter, establishing roadblocks at the intersections of 26th and Blaisdell, 27th and Nicollet, and along 27th Street.-----END TEARLINE-----Analyst Comments: Right now the situation is highly dynamic and details are subject to change. Substantial Information Operations are underway to spin the Minneapolis shooting story with the intent of provoking riots. All news media outlets have shown the video of this incident, which doesn't clearly show what actually happened, and statements by local politicians have intended to stoke up riots.Per statements by officials and video evidence of the scene before the shooting, the truth can be discerned rather easily. The suspect was not the target of a raid, but rather one of the infamous "observers" that have been following ICE agents around for weeks. In this case, this "observer" harassed ICE agents until they made contact with him to either move him out of the street, or arrest him on obstruction charges. At some point, the firearm was discovered, with this Hostile Intent escalating the situation. After the suspect resisted arrest, this intent transitioned into a Hostile Act as the suspect attempted to reach for his firearm during the scuffle. This prompted agents to engage the suspect before he could open fire.Even considering these details, the truth never stopped any riot, so more civil unrest is likely to continue tonight, despite the incredibly cold temperatures. The suspect himself has not yet been identified, and DHS press releases have stated that the suspect had no identity documents on him. While it is speculative at this time, the lack of ID papers is a common tactic used by terrorists and other malign actors, as it makes the identification of their remains more difficult.Analyst: S2A1Research: https://publish.obsidian.md/s2undergroundDisclaimer: No LLMs were used in the writing of this report.//END REPORT//
