Podcasts about remedies

Experiencing insomnia, restless nights, or waking up feeling tired even after a long night's sleep?Have you noticed how sleep issues often come and go with stress, overstimulation, or irregular routines?From Ayurveda, we know sleep disturbances aren't random or something to override with quick fixes.Nidra, or rest, is one of the four pillars of health. It's essential for balanced agni (digestion), the development of ojas (immunity or zest for life) and a calm, clear mind. When sleep is disturbed, the doshas become aggravated, especially vata, and true restoration through digestion cannot occur.In this episode, you'll discover:• Why sound, restful sleep is a sign of true health• The most common sleep disturbances and their root causes in Ayurveda• How overstimulation, digestion, and daily routines impact sleep quality• Why sleeping pills and over-the-counter aids don't resolve the root cause• Simple, natural practices to restore deep, nourishing sleep and resilienceReady to dive deeper into the practices of Ayurveda and guide others to do the same to support their well-being and heal from difficult symptoms and diseases? If leading others on this path feels like your dharma, or calling, we invite you to apply now for a free 1:1 clarity call with a member of our team so we can discuss your goals and see if our training feels aligned.Thanks for tuning in to the Everyday Ayurveda and Yoga at Hale Pule podcast.

On this episode of Vitality Radio, Jared is joined once again by homeopathic consultant Amanda Kotter of Elemental Health to demystify one of the most misunderstood natural medicine systems: homeopathy—specifically how it's used safely and effectively with children. Parents often feel unsure about homeopathic remedies because of unfamiliar names, unusual potencies, and misconceptions about strength and safety. In this conversation, Jared and Amanda simplify the process by walking through a short list of essential remedies every parent should understand. You'll learn when and why remedies like Ferrum Phos, Mag Phos, Aconite, Chamomilla, and Arnica are commonly used for kids, how to think about potency without getting overwhelmed, and why homeopathy is often a gentle first step rather than a last resort. This episode is practical, approachable, and designed to help parents feel confident using homeopathy in real life. Products:Build your own Kids Remedy Kit: Choose any 5 products from this Collection and automatically receive 20% off through February 26, 2026.Vitality Radio POW!

Send a text to Melissa and she'll answer it on the next episode. Let's talk honestly about constipation—what's truly normal, what's not, and how to get back to regular without relying on harsh laxatives. We break down the real signs of constipation beyond just “skipping days,” including hard, dry stools, straining, incomplete emptying, or no urge at all, and we map those patterns to targeted homeopathic remedies that support the body rather than forcing it.We walk through practical matches: Nux vomica for tense, irritable, stressed-out “always urging, never empty” patterns; Bryonia for dryness and pain that worsen with movement; Alumina when there's no urge and sluggish bowels; Silica for the “bashful stool” that slips back in; Opium for severe sluggishness after anesthesia or medications; Calc Carb for slow metabolism and large, painful stools, especially in kids; and Lycopodium for afternoon bloating, trapped gas, and IBS-like discomfort. Along the way, we share how to choose potencies and frequency with a light, sensible touch.Beyond remedies, we dig into the everyday shifts that make a big difference: choosing the right magnesium and pairing it with Mag phos, staying truly hydrated, using warm lemon water to prime digestion, and leaning on fruit like prunes, pears, kiwi, and berries. Movement matters more than most people realize, so we offer simple ideas—from walking to gentle squats—to nudge peristalsis. Parents will find guidance for easing fear and withholding in kids with kindness and flexible strategies.We also flag when to seek medical input: blood in stool, severe pain, more than five days without a bowel movement, unexplained weight loss, or recurring episodes. Most of all, we connect the dots between elimination and whole-body health—mood, skin, energy—so you can move from coping to confident. If this conversation helps, subscribe, share it with a friend who needs relief, and leave a quick review so more people can find these practical tools.You may also gain Access to my Fullscript dispensary and save 30% by going to: https://us.fullscript.com/welcome/mcrenshawFIND ME!

The Holy Family stands as an example of what a family should be. The Church itself is a family as well. Yet today there is a revolution that seeks to undermine the proper order of both human families and the Church family by removing their hierarchical structure in favor of a bottom-up approach to authority. Added to this is the temptation to view the family not as a home, but as a hub where each individual member may pass through living their own life, but without a common commitment to the good of the whole. This problem is exacerbated on contemporary distractions like electronic devices which allow people to shut themselves off from one another. To combat this errant individualism, families must commit to sharing a common life, ranging from taking meals together to praying together as one.

An expansive policy blueprint for meaningfully expanding the middle class for the first time in a century The US middle class was a product of state and federal policies enacted in the wake of the Great Depression. But since the 1980s, lawmakers have undermined what they once built, shredding the social safety net and instituting laws that virtually guarantee downward mobility for all but the most privileged. How can we restore what has been lost? Rigorous and highly readable, The Middle-Class New Deal: Restoring Upward Mobility and the American Dream (U California Press, 2026) breaks down the policies that have decimated working families and proposes reforms to reverse this trend. As Mechele Dickerson shows, part of the problem is that politicians disingenuously conflate the middle class with the "White lower rich." Such propaganda hides how state and federal lawmakers consistently favor education, labor, housing, and consumer-credit laws that erode the bank accounts of lower- and middle-income people--especially those who are not White and don't have college degrees. Weaving together the latest research with the personal stories of Americans struggling to make ends meet, Dickerson provides a clarion call for political leaders to enact a bold agenda like the one that created the middle class almost a century ago. A. Mechele Dickerson is the Arthur L. Moller Chair in Bankruptcy and Practice and University Distinguished Teaching Professor at University of Texas School of Law. Professor Dickerson is a nationally recognized scholar on financial vulnerability, consumer debt, housing affordability, and racial and economic disparities. She regularly teaches Remedies and Federal Civil Procedure at the School of Law, has taught a class on civil procedural disputes that arose between the two Trump presidencies, and has taught numerous cross-listed interdisciplinary graduate-level courses on the American middle-class and the COVID pandemic. She is also the author of Homeownership and America's Financial Underclass: Flawed Premises, Broken Promises, New Prescriptions. Learn more about your ad choices.

For generations, families relied on traditional remedies to care for everyday health long before prescriptions became the first response. From coughs and sleep issues to digestion and skin care, these natural approaches were not trends. They were practical tools passed down because they worked.In this episode of the Gubba Podcast, we explore why natural remedies gradually disappeared from everyday life, how modern medicine became centralized and pharmaceutical driven, and why so many people are now returning to the knowledge their grandmas once trusted. We talk about the historical shift that labeled home remedies as quackery, the role of mineral depletion and nervous system support, and how simple practices like herbal teas, magnesium, broth, and barrier focused skincare supported families for generations.This episode also dives into traditional skin care, including why tallow was historically used to protect the skin barrier and how simplifying modern routines can dramatically improve dryness and irritation. If you are interested in homesteading, self reliance, traditional living, or reclaiming practical health skills, this episode offers a grounded and educational look at remedies that stood the test of time.Perfect for anyone curious about natural medicine, homesteading skills, traditional health practices, or understanding how we moved from kitchen remedies to prescription first care.Shop my homestead and all-natural skincare

Understanding Fiduciary Duties in Modern Trust LawThis conversation delves into the intricate world of trusts and estates, focusing on the fiduciary duties that trustees must uphold, the evolution of the prudent investor rule, and the remedies available for breaches of trust. It emphasizes the importance of process over outcomes, the mandatory duty of loyalty, and the necessity for transparency in trust management. The discussion also highlights the complexities of commingled funds and the modern view of trusts as contracts, providing valuable insights for law students preparing for exams.In the realm of trusts and estates, fiduciary duties stand as the cornerstone of legal responsibility. These duties, often perceived as relics of a bygone era, are in fact dynamic principles that govern the modern landscape of trust law. At the heart of this discussion is the transformation from the traditional prudent man rule to the contemporary prudent investor rule, a shift that underscores the importance of portfolio diversification and risk management.The Evolution of Trust LawHistorically, trust law was rigid, focusing on the preservation of capital through conservative investments. However, the advent of modern portfolio theory in the 1970s revolutionized this approach. Legal scholars Langbein and Posner championed the idea that diversification is the only "free lunch" in finance, advocating for a holistic view of trust portfolios. This perspective laid the groundwork for the Uniform Prudent Investor Act (UPIA), which empowers trustees to embrace modern financial principles while maintaining a disciplined investment process.Core Fiduciary Duties: Loyalty and PrudenceThe duty of loyalty remains an unyielding firewall against conflicts of interest. Trustees must act solely in the interest of beneficiaries, avoiding any self-dealing or personal gain. Meanwhile, the duty of prudence demands active management and documentation of investment decisions, ensuring that trustees adhere to a rigorous standard of care.Remedies for Breach of DutyWhen fiduciary duties are breached, the law provides a robust framework for remedies. From surcharges that hold trustees personally liable for losses, to equitable remedies like constructive trusts, the goal is to restore the trust to its rightful state. These remedies not only compensate beneficiaries but also serve as a deterrent against future misconduct.The Future of Trust LawAs trust law continues to evolve, the tension between settlor autonomy and mandatory fiduciary duties will shape its future. The flexibility offered by the Uniform Trust Code (UTC) allows for sophisticated estate planning, yet it also raises questions about the balance between administrative power and fiduciary obligation. This ongoing dialogue will undoubtedly influence the development of trust law in the years to come.Subscribe now to stay informed about the latest developments in trust law and fiduciary duties.TakeawaysTrustees are judged by process, not just outcomes.The modern trust is a contractarian instrument.Fiduciary duties are default norms to protect beneficiaries.The prudent investor rule shifts focus from individual assets to overall portfolio.Diversification is a mandatory duty for trustees.Self-dealing transactions are voidable regardless of fairness.Trustees must provide regular accountings to beneficiaries.Delegation of duties is allowed but with strict rules.Remedies aim for restoration, not just compensation.Understanding the contract nature of trusts enhances legal analysis.trusts, estates, fiduciary duties, prudent investor rule, duty of loyalty, remedies, trust law, legal analysis, estate planning, law school

Get ready for the February 2026 California Bar Exam with detailed essay predictions based on historical testing patterns and recent exam analysis. In this episode of the Bar Exam Drills Podcast, I break down my comprehensive predictions for the most likely subjects and specific topics to appear on the upcoming exam so you can study strategically instead of guessing. In this detailed analysis, I walk through the core predicted subjects including Professional Responsibility, Community Property, Remedies, Contract Law, and Evidence. For each subject, I examine what appeared on recent exams from July 2025 back through previous testing cycles, identify patterns in how the California Bar Examiners rotate topics, and pinpoint the specific issues most likely to show up in February 2026. For Professional Responsibility, I predict a civil setting focusing on settlement offers, conflicts of interest, and fee splitting arrangements, possibly in a divorce context. Community Property analysis reveals a strong likelihood of quasi community property issues, the clawback rule, and potential crossover with Wills based on the July 2022 pattern. My Remedies prediction points toward a torts and nuisance scenario with injunctions, and I walk you through exactly which past questions to review including the public and private nuisance issues that keep recurring. The Evidence prediction suggests another California Evidence Code question in a civil setting covering subsequent remedial measures, character evidence, and the types of hearsay exceptions that appear when the bar examiners want to test foundational knowledge. For Contracts, I break down the UCC versus common law pattern and explain why I'm predicting a common law contracts question this cycle after back-to-back UCC testing. I also preview the wild card predictions coming in a separate video covering Real Property, Civil Procedure, Criminal Law, and Wills. Throughout the video, you can screenshot the specific topics I've identified so you have a targeted study list instead of trying to memorize everything. Whether you're a first-time taker or repeating the California Bar Exam, these predictions help you allocate your limited study time to the highest probability topics and walk into the exam with confidence. Drop a thumbs up and comment if you want the wild card predictions video released sooner. Want to take your bar prep to the next level?

Notes: Contract Law Exam Ready GuideUnderstanding UCC Article 2 vs. Common Law Contracts: A Legal Deep DiveThis conversation provides an in-depth analysis of UCC Article 2, focusing on the transition from common law contracts to the more flexible UCC framework. It covers essential topics such as the scope of UCC Article 2, merchant status, contract formation, the battle of the forms, performance and breach, risk of loss, warranties, remedies, and the judicial concept of unconscionability. The discussion emphasizes the UCC's anti-surprise policy, which aims to protect buyers from hidden risks and unfair terms in contracts.Navigating the transition from common law contracts to the Uniform Commercial Code (UCC) Article 2 can feel like stepping into a new world. The shift from rigid common law rules to the flexible, commerce-friendly UCC is akin to changing the rules of gravity in a legal landscape.The Philosophical Shift: Common law contracts focus on the intent and promises between two parties, demanding precision and formality. In contrast, UCC Article 2, which governs the sale of goods, is designed for the high-volume, often messy reality of commerce. It aims to facilitate trade rather than hinder it over minor discrepancies.Scope and Application: The UCC applies exclusively to transactions involving goods, defined as movable items at the time of contract identification. This distinction is crucial, as it determines whether the UCC or common law governs a transaction. In mixed contracts involving both goods and services, the predominant purpose test helps decide the applicable legal regime.Merchant Status and Good Faith: Merchant status under the UCC introduces stricter rules and increased liability. Merchants are held to a higher standard of good faith, requiring not only honesty but also adherence to reasonable commercial standards. This ensures that a merchant's conduct aligns with industry norms.Formation and Flexibility: UCC formation rules prioritize the parties' intent to contract, even if some terms are left open. The code provides statutory gap fillers to address these omissions, ensuring that viable agreements are not destroyed by technicalities.Warranties and Disclaimers: The UCC imposes express and implied warranties to ensure product quality. Sellers can disclaim these warranties, but the UCC's anti-surprise policy requires disclaimers to be conspicuous and explicit. This protects buyers from hidden risks.Remedies and Risk of Loss: The UCC offers remedies to place aggrieved parties in the position they would have occupied had the contract been fully performed. It also outlines rules for risk of loss, determining which party bears the financial burden if goods are damaged or destroyed.The UCC's overarching policy objective is to prevent surprise and ensure fairness in commercial transactions. By understanding the nuances of UCC Article 2 and its contrast with common law, legal professionals can navigate this complex landscape with confidence.Subscribe now to stay updated on the latest legal insights and deepen your understanding of contract law.TakeawaysThe transition from common law to UCC is significant.UCC Article 2 focuses on commercial reality and flexibility.Merchant status affects the obligations and risks in transactions.The predominant purpose test determines the governing law for mixed contracts.UCC formation rules are more flexible than common law.The battle of the forms allows for contract formation despite discrepancies.The perfect tender rule gives buyers leverage but has safety valves.Risk of loss depends on the type of contract and seller status.Warranties are foundational seller promises that can be difficult to disclaim.Unconscionability serves as a judicial check on fairness in contracts.UCC, Article 2, contracts, common law, merchant status, warranties, remedies, unconscionability, risk of loss, battle of the forms

Notes: Contract Law Exam Ready GuideUnderstanding Contract Law Remedies: Expectation, Reliance, and RestitutionThis conversation delves into the intricacies of contract remedies, focusing on the primary types: expectation, reliance, and restitution. It emphasizes the importance of compensation over punishment in contract law, exploring the limitations on damages, special rules under the UCC, and the concept of equitable remedies. The discussion provides a comprehensive framework for understanding how damages are calculated and the legal principles that govern them, making it essential for law students preparing for exams.In the realm of contract law, understanding remedies is crucial for both students and practitioners. The primary goal of contract remedies is compensation, not punishment, aiming to place the non-breaching party in the position they would have been if the contract had been performed as promised. Let's delve into the three main types of remedies: expectation, reliance, and restitution.Expectation Damages: The Default RemedyExpectation damages are the most common remedy, designed to give the injured party the benefit of the bargain. This involves calculating the value of what was promised minus what was actually received, adding any incidental or consequential losses, and subtracting any costs avoided due to the breach. This forward-looking approach ensures the injured party receives the future they were promised.Reliance Damages: Looking BackwardWhen expectation damages are too speculative, reliance damages come into play. This remedy aims to restore the injured party to their pre-contract position by reimbursing expenses incurred in reliance on the contract. It's particularly useful in cases where future profits are uncertain, such as new business ventures.Restitution: Preventing Unjust EnrichmentRestitution shifts the focus from the injured party's loss to the breaching party's gain. This remedy ensures that the breaching party does not unfairly benefit from the contract. It's especially relevant in scenarios where the market value of the work done exceeds the contract price, allowing the non-breaching party to recover the reasonable value of their services.Key Limitations and ConsiderationsContract law also imposes limitations on these remedies, including foreseeability, certainty, and the duty to mitigate damages. These constraints ensure that damages are reasonable and justifiable. Additionally, the Uniform Commercial Code (UCC) provides specific rules for the sale of goods, emphasizing real-world mitigation strategies.In conclusion, understanding these remedies and their limitations is essential for navigating contract law effectively. Whether you're preparing for an exam or dealing with a real-world contract dispute, mastering these concepts will equip you with the tools needed to achieve fair compensation.Subscribe now to stay updated on the latest insights in contract law.TakeawaysThe goal of contract remedies is compensation, not punishment.Expectation damages aim to put the injured party in the position they would have been in if the contract had been performed.Reliance damages restore the status quo ante, reimbursing expenses incurred in reliance on the contract.Restitution focuses on preventing unjust enrichment of the breaching party.Damages must be proven with reasonable certainty; speculation is not enough.The injured party has a duty to mitigate their losses after a breach.The Lost Volume Seller doctrine allows sellers to recover lost profits even after reselling goods.Specific performance is an equitable remedy used when money damages are inadequate.Liquidated damages clauses must be reasonable estimates of potential losses, not penalties.contract law, remedies, expectation damages, reliance damages, restitution, UCC, equitable remedies, legal principles, compensation, breach of contract

Of all contest entries, Bush Bath is perhaps the embodiment of the 2025 festival contest theme, Remedies of Root. Penned by Brandon McIvor, it traces a man on a visit to Trinidad to see his dying mother, who abandoned him as a child. He delays the meeting, instead taking a symbolic "bush bath" in a forest pool to cleanse his pain. There, a recovered memory reveals his mother didn't save him from danger, but first let him go. As the story unfolds, McIvor's main character must decide whether to confront her with this painful truth or offer her peace. Brandon Mc Ivor was born and raised in Trinidad and Tobago and holds a BSc in English Literature from New York University. He currently teaches English in Ehime, Japan, while continuing to build a literary practice that explores the craft and circulation of storytelling. His work has appeared in The Caribbean Writer and in Akashic Books' flash fiction series, among other publications. He was also shortlisted for the Commonwealth Short Fiction Prize in 2020 for his work Finger, Spinster, Serial Killer. Both writer and marketer, Mc Ivor is deeply interested in the forms and voices through which stories are told, seeking to move audiences through fiction, poetry, and creative communication alike.

Have you ever walked past something every single day and somehow never noticed it? Yep… me too. In this episode of the Visibly Fit Podcast, we're talking about healing tools that are hiding in plain sight — the simple, everyday things you probably already have at home that can support your health in powerful ways.I kick things off with a funny story about my husband's missing LARQ bottle (because who loses something that's literally right in front of their face?). But that moment reminded me of something deeper: so many of us overlook the most effective healing modalities because they seem too simple or too ordinary. We assume health has to be complicated, expensive, or high-tech, when in reality, God has already provided us with so many tools right where we are.I hope that this conversation opens your eyes a little wider to your home, your backyard, and even your everyday routines. Because healing isn't always found in something new… sometimes it's found in what you've been walking past all along.Chapters[00:00] Podcast Preview[01:22] Welcome + The “Lost” LARQ Bottle Story[04:15] Hidden in Plain Sight: The Deeper Lesson[06:08] Hot Potato Remedy for Sore Throats[08:00] Saltwater, Lemon, Thyme & Peppermint Gargle[08:42] Pine Needle Tea & Its Powerful Benefits[10:36] Purslane: The Wild Weed That Fuels Energy[12:54] Milk Thistle + Dandelion Root Liver Detox Tea[15:11] Onions in the Socks to Reduce Fever Naturally[17:40] Cabbage Wraps for Joint Pain & Inflammation[19:09] DIY Brain Fog Blend with Pumpkin Seeds & Herbs[21:06] Parsley Tea for UTI Support[22:39] Aloe Vera: Skin Healing & Everyday Uses[23:54] Epsom Salt Baths for Magnesium + Inflammation[25:05] Baking Soda for Heartburn Relief[26:11] Rice Compress for Hot/Cold Therapy[27:10] Towels, Broomsticks & Paper Plates for Home Workouts[30:15] Mason Jars & Pantry Hacks for Healthy Living[34:00] Citrus Peel Aromatherapy[34:56] Final Thoughts: What Are You Overlooking in Your Life?Resources mentioned:FREE Green Drink Recipe: liveimmune.comConnect with me: wendy@wendiepett.com More FREE Resources visit wendiepett.comP.S.

In this important older episode of the Ancient Health Podcast, Dr. Motley discusses the relationship between a dry cough and kidney health. He explains how the kidneys and lungs are connected, and how chronic stress, fear and grief can impact kidney function and lead to a persistent cough. Show Notes + Links ⬇️ Takeaways: A chronic dry cough can be an indication of kidney fatigue and imbalance.

In this episode, Matt sits down with his spiritual father, Fr. Boniface Hicks, to unpack Aquinas' five remedies to sorrow. There's so much sadness in the world today, may this episode be a healing balm if you're wading through the thick of it right now.

Ralph welcomes Professor Roddey Reid to break down his book “Confronting Political Intimidation and Public Bullying: A Handbook for the Trump Era and Beyond.” Then, we are joined by the original Nader's Raider, Professor Robert Fellmeth, who enlightens us on how online anonymity and Artificial Intelligence are harming children.Roddey Reid is Professor Emeritus at the University of California, San Diego where he taught classes on modern cultures and societies in the US, France, and Japan. Since 2008 he has researched and published on trauma, daily life, and political intimidation in the US and Europe. He is a member of Indivisible.org San Francisco, and he hosts the blog UnSafe Thoughts on the fluidity of politics in dangerous times. He is also the author of Confronting Political Intimidation and Public Bullying: A Handbook for the Trump Era and Beyond.I think we still have trouble acknowledging what's actually happening. Particularly our established institutions that are supposed to protect us and safeguard us—many of their leaders are struggling with the sheer verbal and physical violence that's been unfurling in front of our very eyes. Many people are exhausted by it all. And it's transformed our daily life to the point that I think one of the goals is (quite clearly) to disenfranchise people such that they don't want to go out and participate in civic life.Roddey ReidWhat's broken down is…a collective response, organized group response. Now, in the absence of that, this is where No King's Day and other activities come to the fore. They're trying to restore collective action. They're trying to restore the public realm as a place for politics, dignity, safety, and shared purpose. And that's been lost. And so this is where the activists and civically engaged citizens and residents come in. They're having to supplement or even replace what these institutions traditionally have been understood to do. It's exhilarating, but it's also a sad moment.Roddey ReidRobert Fellmeth worked as a Nader's Raider from 1968 to 1973 in the early days of the consumer movement. He went on to become the Price Professor of Public Interest Law at the University of San Diego (where he taught for 47 years until his retirement early this year) and he founded their Children's Advocacy Institute in 1983. Since then, the Institute has sponsored 100 statutes and 35 appellate cases involving child rights, and today it has offices in Sacramento and DC. He is also the co-author of the leading law textbook Child Rights and Remedies.I think an easy remedy—it doesn't solve the problem totally—but simply require the AI to identify itself when it's being used. I mean, to me, that's something that should always be the case. You have a right to know. Again, free speech extends not only to the speaker, but also to the audience. The audience has a right to look at the information, to look at the speech, and to judge something about it, to be able to evaluate it. That's part of free speech.Robert FellmethNews 10/17/25* In Gaza, the Trump administration claims to have brokered a ceasefire. However, this peace – predicated on an exchange of prisoners – is extremely fragile. On Tuesday, Palestinians attempting to return to their homes were fired upon by Israeli soldiers. Defense Minister Israel Katz claimed those shot were “terrorists” whose attempts to “approach and cross [the Yellow Line] were thwarted.” Al Jazeera quotes Lorenzo Kamel, a professor of international history at Italy's University of Turin, who calls the ceasefire a “facade” and that the “structural violence will remain there precisely as it was – and perhaps even worse.” We can only hope that peace prevails and the Palestinians in Gaza are able to return to their land. Whatever is left of it.* Despite this ceasefire, Trump was denied in his bid for a Nobel Peace Prize. The prize instead went to right-wing Venezuelan dissident María Corina Machado. Democracy Now! reports Machado ran against Venezuelan President Nicolás Maduro in 2023, but was “barred from running after the government accused her of corruption and cited her support for U.S. sanctions against Venezuela.” If elected Machado has promised to privatize Venezuela's state oil industry and move Venezuela's Embassy in Israel from Tel Aviv to Jerusalem, and in 2020, her party, Vente Venezuela, “signed a pact formalizing strategic ties with Israel's Likud party led by Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu.” Machado has also showered praise on right-wing Latin American leaders like Javier Milei of Argentina and following her victory, praised Trump's “decisive support,” even telling Fox News that Trump “deserves” the prize for his anti-Maduro campaign, per the Nation.* Machado's prize comes within the context of Trump's escalating attacks on Venezuela. In addition to a fifth deadly strike on a Venezuelan boat, which killed six, the New York Times reports Trump has ordered his envoy to the country Richard Grenell to cease all diplomatic outreach to Venezuela, including talks with President Maduro. According to this report, “Trump has grown frustrated with…Maduro's failure to accede to American demands to give up power voluntarily and the continued insistence by Venezuelan officials that they have no part in drug trafficking.” Grenell had been trying to strike a deal with the Bolivarian Republic to “avoid a larger conflict and give American companies access to Venezuelan oil,” but these efforts were obviously undercut by the attacks on the boats – which Democrats contend are illegal under U.S. and international law – as well as Secretary of State Marco Rubio labeling Maduro a “fugitive from American justice,” and placing a $50 million bounty on his head. With this situation escalating rapidly, many now fear direct U.S. military deployment into Venezuela.* Meanwhile, Trump has already deployed National Guard troops to terrorize immigrants in Chicago. The Chicago Sun-Times reports Pope Leo XIV, the first American Pope and a Chicago native, met with Chicago union leaders in Rome last week and urged them to take action to protect immigrants in the city. Defending poor immigrants is rapidly becoming a top priority for the Catholic Church. Pope Leo has urged American bishops to “speak with one voice” on the issue and this story related that “El Paso bishop Mark Seitz brought Leo letters from desperate immigrant families.” Chicago Cardinal Blase Cupich, also at the meeting with Leo and the union leaders, said that the Pope “wants us to make sure, as bishops, that we speak out on behalf of the undocumented or anybody who's vulnerable to preserve their dignity…We all have to remember that we all share a common dignity as human beings.”* David Ellison, the newly-minted CEO of Paramount, is ploughing ahead with a planned expansion of his media empire. His next target: Warner Bros. Discovery. According to the Hollywood Reporter, Ellison already pitched a deal to WB CEO David Zaslav, but the $20 per share offer was rejected. However, Ellison is likely to offer a new deal “possibly…backed by his father Larry Ellison or a third party like Apollo [Global Management].” There is also talk that he could go directly to the WBD shareholders if the corporate leadership proves unresponsive. If Ellison is intent on this acquisition, he will need to move fast. Zaslav is planning to split the company into a “studios and HBO business,” and a Discovery business, which would include CNN. Ellison is clearly interested in acquiring CNN to help shape newsroom perspectives, as his recent appointment of Bari Weiss as “editor-in-chief” of CBS News demonstrates, so this split would make an acquisition far less of an attractive prospect. We will be watching this space.* In another Ellison-related media story, Newsweek reports Barron Trump, President Trump's 19-year-old son, is being eyed for a board seat at the newly reorganized Tik-Tok. According to this story, “Trump's former social media manager Jack Advent proposed the role at the social media giant, as it comes into U.S. ownership, arguing that the younger Trump's appointment could broaden TikTok's appeal among young users.” Barron is currently enrolled in New York University's Stern School of Business and serves as an “ambassador” for World Liberty Financial, the “Trump family's crypto venture.” TikTok U.S., formerly owned and operated by the Chinese company ByteDance, is being taken over by a “consortium of American investors [including Larry Ellison's] Oracle and investment firm Silver Lake Partners,” among others.* As the government shutdown drags on, the Trump administration is taking the opportunity to further gut the federal government, seeming to specifically target the offices protecting the most vulnerable. According to NPR, “all staff in the [Department of Education] Office of Special Education and Rehabilitative Services (OSERS), with the exception of a handful of top officials and support staff, were cut,” in a reduction-in-force or RIF order issued Friday. One employee is quoted saying “This is decimating the office responsible for safeguarding the rights of infants, toddlers, children and youth with disabilities.” Per this report, OSERS is “responsible for roughly $15 billion in special education funding and for making sure states provide special education services to the nation's 7.5 million children with disabilities.” Just why exactly the administration is seeking to undercut federal support for disabled children is unclear. Over at the Department of Health and Human Services, headed by Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr., HHS sent out an RIF to “approximately 1,760 employees last Friday — instead of the intended 982,” as a “result of data discrepancies and processing errors,” NOTUS reports. The agency admitted the error in a court filing in response to a suit brought by the employees' unions. Even still, the cuts are staggering and include 596 employees at the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention and 125 at the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration, to name just a few. This report notes that other agencies, including the Departments of Justice, Treasury and Homeland Security all sent out inaccurately high RIFs as well.* The Lever reports Boeing, the troubled airline manufacturer, is fighting a new Federal Aviation Administration rule demanding additional inspections for older 737 series planes after regulators discovered cracks in their fuselages. The rule “would revise the inspection standards…through a regulatory action called an ‘airworthiness directive.'...akin to a product recall if inspectors find a defective piece of equipment on the plane…in [this case] cracks along the body of the plane's main cabin.” The lobbying group Airlines for America is seeking to weaken the rule by arguing that the maintenance checks would be too “costly” for the airline industry, who would ultimately have to bear the financial brunt of these inspections. Boeing is fighting them too because such a rule would make airlines less likely to buy Boeing's decaying airplanes. As this report notes, Transportation Secretary Sean Duffy – who oversees the FAA – “previously worked as an airline lobbyist…[and] Airlines for America recently selected the former Republican Governor of New Hampshire, Chris Sununu to be their chief executive officer.”* In more consumer-related news, Consumer Reports has been conducting a series of studies on lead levels in various consumer products. Most recently, a survey of protein powders and shakes found “troubling levels of toxic heavy metals,” in many of the most popular brands. They write, “For more than two-thirds of the products we analyzed, a single serving contained more lead than CR's food safety experts say is safe to consume in a day—some by more than 10 times.” Some of these products have massively increased in heavy metal content just over the last several years. CR reports “Naked Nutrition's Vegan Mass Gainer powder, the product with the highest lead levels, had nearly twice as much lead per serving as the worst product we analyzed in 2010.” The experts quoted in this piece advise against daily use of these products, instead limiting them to just once per week.* Finally, in a new piece in Rolling Stone, David Sirota and Jared Jacang Maher lay out how conservatives are waging new legal campaigns to strip away the last remaining fig leaves of campaign finance regulation – and what states are doing to fight back. One angle of attack is a lawsuit targeting the restrictions on coordination between parties and individual campaigns, with House Republicans arguing that, “because parties pool money from many contributors, that ‘significantly dilutes the potential for any particular donor to exercise a corrupting influence over any particular candidate' who ultimately benefits from their cash.” Another angle is a lawsuit brought by P.G. Sittenfeld, the former Democratic mayor of Cincinnati – who has already been pardoned by Trump for accepting bribes – but is seeking to establish that “pay-to-play culture is now so pervasive that it should no longer be considered prosecutable.” However, the authors do throw out one ray of hope from an unlikely source: Montana. The authors write, “Thirteen years after the Supreme Court gutted the state's century-old anti-corruption law, Montana luminaries of both parties are now spearheading a ballot initiative circumventing Citizens United jurisprudence and instead focusing on changing state incorporation laws that the high court rarely meddles with.The measure's proponents note that Citizens United is predicated on state laws giving corporations the same powers as actual human beings, including the power to spend on politics. But they point out that in past eras, state laws granted corporations more limited powers — and states never relinquished their authority to redefine what corporations can and cannot do. The Montana initiative proposes to simply use that authority to change the law — in this case, to no longer grant corporations the power to spend on elections.” Who knows if this initiative will move forward in Montana, but it does provide states a blueprint for combatting the pernicious influence of Citizens United. States should and must act on it.This has been Francesco DeSantis, with In Case You Haven't Heard. Get full access to Ralph Nader Radio Hour at www.ralphnaderradiohour.com/subscribe

More than half of U.S. adults experience dry eye symptoms, but only a small fraction have received a formal diagnosis or treatment Common symptoms include burning, stinging, gritty sensations, blurred vision, and eye fatigue, often worse at night or with prolonged screen use Environmental and lifestyle factors — including digital device use, indoor HVAC, contact lenses, and certain medications — are major drivers of dry eye disease Remedies range from simple lifestyle changes and home routines (blink breaks, warm compresses, humidifiers) to over-the-counter drops, prescription medications, and device therapies Ignoring persistent symptoms increases the risk of corneal damage, chronic inflammation, and permanent vision changes, making professional evaluation necessary
