In this Badlands Media special coverage, viewers are presented with President Donald Trump's extended remarks and press exchange following major military and geopolitical developments involving Venezuela. The coverage begins with prepared remarks emphasizing American sea power, industrial revival, and the launch of a month-long “Arsenal of Freedom” tour highlighting U.S. shipbuilding, manufacturing, and military readiness.

The press portion centers on Venezuela and the capture of Nicolás Maduro, with President Trump addressing the operation, U.S. involvement, and the future of Venezuelan governance, oil infrastructure, and elections. He discusses narcotrafficking, cartel activity, regional security, and the Monroe Doctrine, while responding to questions on Cuba, Colombia, Iran, Russia, Ukraine, tariffs, sanctions, and global trade. The coverage concludes with reflections on peace, deterrence, and restoring American strength at home and abroad, presented in full without commentary or hosting.

So many of us make New Year's resolutions with the best intentions, only to watch them fade by February. This episode is a vital message for anyone who's ever felt discouraged by a "failed" resolution. It's not about lacking discipline; it's about a fundamental misunderstanding of how change truly happens. Inside this episode, we explore: The Resolution Trap: Why resolutions ask you to "try harder" and how this approach actually keeps your old identity in charge. Identity vs. Effort: The crucial difference between making resolutions and making decisions that redefine who you are. The Subconscious Mind: How your subconscious prioritizes safety and familiarity, and why it doesn't respond to hope or pressure. Intention vs. Decision: Understanding that intentions are directional, but decisions are final and non-negotiable. Alignment Over Force: How a shift in identity leads to effortless behavioral change, creating a sense of calm and regulation. The Power of Deciding: Why this year is about deciding who you are and what you want, not about trying harder. This is the episode for anyone ready to move beyond the cycle of resolutions and embrace a deeper, more powerful form of transformation by making definitive choices about their identity.  

In part one of Red Eye Radio with Gary McNamara and Eric Harley, Happy New Year and Happy Birthday Eric! Before the guys left for holiday vacation the US was sending criminals to Venezuela, and when they returned we are extracting a criminal from Venezuela. The latest is that Maduro's arraignment is expected today after helicopters flew the Venezuelan leader to New York City over the weekend. Operation "Absolute Resolve" now places Venezuela's acting president Delcy Rodríguez in charge. She made a statement on Facebook Sunday night issuing a public appeal for peace and cooperation with the U.S. Also Secretary of State Marco Rubio sparred with several network interviewers including ABC's George Stephanopoulos on Sunday as the "This Week" host repeatedly pressed Rubio over whether the U.S. was going to run Venezuela and Gary shares a special Christmas moment with his Father over the holidays.

On January 3rd, 2026, the U.S. military performed the most high-stakes extraction in modern history. Operation Absolute Resolve didn't just remove a dictator; it reset the geopolitical map of the Western Hemisphere. In this episode, host Kevin Muñoz explores the dual realities of the Venezuelan strike. On one side, a "surgical" removal of a narco-terrorist leader to face justice in New York. On the other, a nation in crisis, a defiant Vice President in Delcy Rodríguez, and a looming corporate battle over the world's largest oil reserves. We dive into: The Tactics: How 150 aircraft blinded a nation in 30 minutes. The History: Why this feels like Panama 1989 and Guatemala 1954 all over again. The Economy: Trump's "Reimbursement Model" and the $110 billion price tag to fix a rotting industry. Is this the dawn of Venezuelan democracy, or the return of the Monroe Doctrine? Stay Informed.

Episode 541: Operation Maximum Resolve - Regime Tailoring?Today, Les, Morgan, Jess, and Matthew discuss the U.S. operation in Venezuela over the weekend that extracted President Nicolás Maduro and his wife and brought them to New York to face drug trafficking charges. While the Trump administration says no U.S. troops are currently on the ground and denies plans to run Venezuela's day-to-day affairs, the operation follows months of apparent intelligence and military preparation and coincides with a significant U.S. naval presence offshore. Former Vice President Delcy Rodríguez has been sworn in as interim president, setting the stage for a highly uncertain next phase inside the country.Is this regime change—or a more limited leadership removal designed to avoid the mistakes of past U.S. interventions? Does extracting a single leader offer a cheaper, more effective alternative to invasion and occupation, or does it raise serious questions about sovereignty and international law? And can the United States translate a stunning military and intelligence success into lasting deterrence, democratic opportunity, and a rollback of Russian and Chinese influence in the Western Hemisphere?@lestermunson@morganlroach@nottvjessjonesLike what we're doing here?

Why do some eating disorders continue for years or even decades, despite treatment, effort, and a strong desire for change? Long-standing eating disorders are often misunderstood as personal failure or lack of motivation. In reality, persistence usually reflects unmet needs, nervous system strain, and environments that have not supported safety or regulation. What “Chronic” Really Means in Eating Disorder Care In clinical settings, the term chronic simply means persistent over time. It does not mean static, untreatable, or hopeless. Many people with chronic eating disorders experience periods of stability, partial recovery, or symptom shifts rather than full resolution. Progress often occurs in layers rather than in a straight line. Chronic eating disorders appear across diagnoses, including anorexia, bulimia, binge eating disorder, ARFID, and mixed presentations. What matters most is not the duration of symptoms, but the function those symptoms continue to serve. Eating Disorders as Nervous System Survival Strategies Eating disorder behaviors frequently operate as survival responses. They may regulate anxiety, reduce sensory overwhelm, create predictability, or provide relief from emotional distress. When behaviors serve a regulatory purpose, stopping them without replacing that function can feel destabilizing rather than healing. Persistence is rarely about effort. Many people with long-term eating disorders have engaged in extensive treatment and tried multiple approaches. Without safety, the nervous system will continue to rely on familiar strategies. Trauma, Chronic Stress, and Ongoing Threat Long-standing eating disorders often develop in the context of trauma that never fully resolved. Ongoing stressors such as medical trauma, anti-fat bias, racism, ableism, financial insecurity, chronic illness, or identity-based harm can keep the nervous system in survival mode. When threat remains present, recovery models that assume safety already exists often fall short. In these environments, eating disorder behaviors may remain necessary for coping. Neurodivergence and Unmet Support Needs Neurodivergent people experience chronic eating disorders at high rates, yet are frequently underserved by standard treatment models. Sensory sensitivities, executive functioning challenges, and interoceptive differences can make eating overwhelming in ways traditional care does not address. Without accommodation, eating disorder behaviors may persist because they reduce sensory or cognitive overload. Recovery requires adapting care to the person, not forcing the person to adapt to the model. Autonomy, Power, and Control in Recovery Eating disorders often become closely tied to autonomy, especially for people who have experienced chronic control or invalidation. Decisions about food can feel like the last remaining area of choice. When treatment removes autonomy without rebuilding agency, symptoms often intensify. Collaborative, consent-based care that honors choice can create safer conditions for change. What Actually Supports Long-Term Change Sustainable change in chronic eating disorders is built through safety, curiosity, and flexibility. Emotional, sensory, and relational safety allow the nervous system to shift. Curiosity replaces judgment by asking what the eating disorder provides rather than focusing only on stopping it. Accommodation, harm reduction, and connection play central roles. Reducing risk, improving quality of life, and supporting nourishment without demanding perfection create space for gradual change. Rethinking Recovery for Chronic Eating Disorders Recovery does not need to mean the complete absence of symptoms to be meaningful. Increased flexibility, reduced fear, fewer medical crises, and a fuller life matter. Chronic eating disorders reflect complexity, not hopelessness. Who This Episode Is For This episode is for people living with chronic eating disorders, providers working with long-term or complex cases, and anyone seeking a trauma-informed, neurodivergent-affirming perspective on eating disorder recovery. Content Caution Discussion includes eating disorder behaviors, long-term symptoms, trauma, and systemic barriers to care. Related Episodes Relapse in Long-Term Eating Disorders on Apple & Spotify.

Too often New Year's resolutions are about self-help.They should be about stewardship.Teach us to number our days, that we may gain a heart of wisdom.Resolve to live intentionally for God's glory in 2026.

As a new year begins, many people rush to make resolutions rooted in hope, emotion, and intention. In this teaching, Pastor Azizah Morrison draws a clear biblical distinction between abstract resolutions and inner resolve.Using Scripture, this lesson explores how true transformation begins with settled decisions of the heart, not temporary motivation. You will learn why so many cycles repeat, how double-mindedness produces instability, and why God emphasizes resolve over promises. From Daniel's quiet conviction in Babylon to Jesus setting His face toward Jerusalem, Scripture reveals that lasting obedience flows from inner finality.This message invites listeners to move beyond trying harder and into living governed, aligned, and spiritually settled. The teaching concludes with a prayer asking God to establish resolve within us for the year ahead.This is not a message about goals. It is a call to inner alignment.

The New Year is just around the corner along with the tradition of making resolutions, which are usually promises to do something "more, better, or different." Most of us start the New Year with the greatest of intentions, yet by March (or even by the second week in January) we may not find ourselves so resolved. We revert back to old patterns and beat ourselves up for not sticking to our resolutions. Could there be a way to ring in 2026 that serves us better? YES! And it has been my New Year ritual for the past fifteen years. Many of you have joined me in this ritual, which is a co-creative process of reflection and intention setting over the years. The night of December 31st will come and go (and no one will remember what you wore) so instead of just trying to plan an epic evening, set your sights on co-creating an epic year!! I invite you to follow this step-by-step process and amend it any way that inspires you: PART ONE: Completing 2025 On December 31st (or around that time) carve out at least an hour of uninterrupted time for yourself. Create the mood – get comfy, quiet, light a candle, put on some music. Begin by writing in a journal your "Year in Review." Month by month recall events that happened, people you met, places you visited, lessons you learned, accomplishments, blessings, struggles, funny moments and so on. What is so great about looking at the year in this way is that you are able to notice how you have grown and express gratitude for all your learnings. After you have gone through the year, consider the behaviors, beliefs or habits that you'd like to leave behind. We all have our regrets, bad habits, and learning experiences; yet, a lot of us tend to cling to them much longer than we need to. On a separate sheet of paper, write down what you would like to leave behind in 2025. For example: being obsessed with an ex, bad eating habits, going to bed too late, limiting beliefs, repetitive/disruptive thoughts, overuse of social media, consistent self-scrutiny, road rage and so on. When you complete this list, burn it or rip it up into tiny pieces to really let it go! If you so choose, share your year in review with someone close to you. See what they recall, reminisce, and share a couple laughs. (Optional) Make a toast to the end of the year. Say a prayer of gratitude for 2025, declare you are letting it go, and toast to releasing anything that no longer serves you. PART TWO: Co-Creating 2026 Begin to co-create/manifest 2026. Light a new candle, set the mood. Meditate for at least five minutes using the guided meditation included in this episode. Meditation is important to do before you begin to manifest so you create and visualize from the authentic self rather than the ego. After your meditation is complete and you are tuned into your most authentic channel, you are ready to start visioning your 2026! Begin by getting a blank sheet of unlined paper. Write at the top: "This or something better for the highest good of all concerned. And so it is." Without thinking or analyzing, write down anything and everything that comes to mind that you would like to co-create/manifest in 2026. Be specific, be creative and think big; however, your list should be at least 70 percent possible and believable. Write until your brain is empty – don't worry about being greedy! The Universe loves to be generous!!! Important: write everything in present tense using "I am" and use verbs to enthusiastically and specifically express what you want. For instance, "I am joyfully and easily securing a new job that is professionally fulfilling and offers me the opportunity to do what I love." Include how you will FEEL - this is crucial because we're actually chasing the feeling, not just the goal. Choose a place to display your list where you can see it regularly and treat it as something sacred. Better yet, record yourself reading your list aloud with feeling and emotion - your own voice is hypnotic. Listen to this recording daily, multiple times a day if possible. Create a playlist of 3-5 songs (at least 20 minutes) that make you feel enlivened, connected to your purpose, and energized for the future. Choose forward-thinking songs that uplift you, not songs that make you nostalgic or sad. Listen to this playlist frequently - ideally while taking a walk and listening to your recorded manifestation audio. Frequently throughout the year, review your list (every day is ideal). Read what you wrote aloud and feel free to add to it. January 1st is not the only day of the year in which you can call in what you want! Believe in the possibility of your manifestation power. Observe with gratitude as things in your life begin to manifest. Celebrate AND do not beat yourself up or get discouraged over what is not happening. Focusing more on what is abundant in our lives ALREADY is the best way to generate more abundance. Remember that sometimes our timeline and the Universe's timeline may be different. Resolve to live your life in alignment with what you truly want to manifest. Rid yourself of any emotional, mental, physical, or interpersonal clutter so that you can get out of your own way. Co-creating and manifestation takes action as well as thought and belief, so resolve this year to take steps to truly LIVE your best life. Love, Christine

Teaching Ecclesiastes 9:10

Then let us also be all the more diligent to receive our inheritance. If you would resolve anything in the new year, resolve this. Resolve to live in the name and inheritance which you have been given. Put to death those sins which are foreign to who you are. Christ has already cut off those things by baptism, in the circumcision of your heart. Live honoring the name which you have been given, the name of Jesus Christ. Remind yourself of this promise, and make good use of the sacraments for the strengthening of your heart.

The great ones in business stay with their high-value targets through the storms of criticism, the attacks of vicious critics and the aching bouts of self-doubt. Much like a dog with a bone, these movement-makers have habituated (by training) the traits of resilience, persistence and the superhuman determination to finish what they start. They are masters of entrepreneurship instead of entitlement, really believing that their creativity, productivity, teamwork and contributions to their industry are exponentially more essential to their success than having a fortunate destiny or getting lucky.My latest book “The Wealth Money Can't Buy” is full of fresh ideas and original tools that I'm absolutely certain will cause quantum leaps in your positivity, productivity, wellness, and happiness.

THE DEVASTATION OF BLOODY WEEK AND MORISOT'S RESOLVE Colleague Sebastian Smee. In May 1871, French government forces retook Paris during "Bloody Week," a period of atrocity where summary executions were rampant and the streets "ran red with blood." In response, Communards burned major landmarks, including the Tuileries Palace and the Hôtel de Ville. Manet, though absent during the final violence, created a lithograph depicting the execution of Communards as an indictment of the government's brutality. Berthe Morisot witnessed the destruction firsthand; rather than deterring her, the trauma of the "Terrible Year" strengthened her resolve to become a professional artist, a radical decision for a woman of her class. While many were executed or exiled to New Caledonia, Morisotchanneled the instability of the era into her work, emerging from Manet's shadow to become a distinct and innovative painter in her own right.

As we look ahead, this message affirms a clear truth: when communities most impacted have real power in decision-making, racial justice becomes not just possible, but inevitable.

A raw, reflective journey through the political upheavals, personal reckonings, and hard-won hope of 2025. Episode Summary Corey takes us on a tour of 2025's most pivotal moments—both in politics and in his own life. He recounts the Trump administration's controversial actions, the assassination of Charlie Kirk, and civic responses like the No Kings Rallies. Interwoven are deeply personal stories: Corey's mental health struggles, the loss of a friendship, and a psychotic break that led to crucial self-reflection.

Read OnlineThe book of the genealogy of Jesus Christ, the son of David, the son of Abraham… Thus the total number of generations from Abraham to David is fourteen generations; from David to the Babylonian exile, fourteen generations; from the Babylonian exile to the Messiah, fourteen generations.” Matthew 1:1; 17This lengthy list of Abraham's and David's descendents, leading to Jesus, is much more than a listing of names. It's an illustration of God's fidelity to His promises. To Abraham, God promised “All the families of the earth will find blessing in you” (Genesis 12:3). To David, God promised “Your house and your kingdom are firm forever before me; your throne shall be firmly established forever” (2 Samuel 7:16).Certain divine qualities are revealed in these passages. Unwavering fidelity, continuity through the ages, and God's eternal plan to bless all people through the descendants of Abraham and David are among them. These qualities are not only important for Scripture study, enabling scholars to better understand the whole of salvation history, they also are important to each one of our lives today.When God makes a promise, He is faithful to that promise. What promises has God made to you? He has promised the gifts of grace, happiness, holiness, and eternal life to all who become members of His Kingdom. This promise of unwavering fidelity should inspire hope within our hearts, especially when life is difficult. Difficulties can tempt us to despair, anxiety, and fear. Confidence in God's fidelity will keep us firmly grounded in the certainty of hope that God will never let us down when we remain faithful to Him.In our fast-paced and ever changing world, continuity and consistency are often absent. Many people change their views based on the latest trends. The barrage of constant news, political and moral opinions, and changing economic and social conditions tempt us to change with the latest ideas. God's ideas, however, never change. These promises should lead us to establish our lives not on the latest opinions or popular culture, but on the rock-solid principles of faith, as revealed by God.We are among those who receive blessings promised to “all the families of the earth” through Abraham. Jesus is that final descendent through Whom every good blessing comes. His mission opens the floodgates of grace to all who turn to Him in their need. Don't ever doubt that perfect and eternal plan of salvation. Reflect today on God's perfect fidelity, continuity, and promise of eternal salvation to all who become members of His Kingdom. That Kingdom will remain forever while every other kingdom will pass away. Resolve to remain a full citizen of that Kingdom by being unwaveringly faithful to God's promises, and you will be blessed now and forever to share in the eternal plan of our saving God. My faithful God, Your eternal Word never changes. Your perfect plan invites me to share in the salvation promised to all who follow You and become members of Your Kingdom. Grant me the gift of perfect fidelity to You so that I am consistently united to You and always remain a member of Your eternal Kingdom on Earth and in Heaven. Jesus, I trust in You.  Image: © José Luiz Bernardes RibeiroSource of content: catholic-daily-reflections.comCopyright © 2025 My Catholic Life! Inc. All rights reserved.
