Constitutional reform is a recurring theme in UK politics. Debates regularly surface about changing the electoral system, reforming the House of Lords, or redefining the role of the courts. These conversations often focus on the traditional institutions of the state: government, parliament and the judiciary. But is that focus too narrow? When considering how power operates in a modern democracy, should constitutional thinking extend beyond these formal branches of government? Might institutions such as the media, financial sector or other centres of influence also deserve attention when we discuss constitutional design? This week, Daniel Hind joins host Alan Renwick to explore a fresh argument that the constitutional reform agenda needs to be broadened. The discussion is based on a new article in The Political Quarterly that calls for a more expansive understanding of how democratic power should be structured and overseen. Mentioned in this episode: Popular Sovereignty and the Constitutional Reform Agenda

Mike Johnson, Beau Morgan, and Ali Mac react to a report that the Atlanta Falcons are converting $14 million dollars of Offensive Tackle Jake Matthews' salary into a signing bonus, adding one void year, clearing $10.5M of cap space in 2026, talk about how this move could mean they were wrong about what they thought the Falcons and General Manager Ian Cunningham were planning for the future, and then continue to react to the reports that Falcons free agent linebacker Kaden Elliss is leaving the Falcons and heading back to New Orleans to rejoin the Saints on a three-year, $33 million-dollar deal.

Valenti and Rico continue their criticism of the Lions for their lack of aggression in free agency.

When your business is bogged down by debt, every bill feels like an emergency and every slow sales day feels catastrophic. This creates "noise"—a cycle of anxiety, reactive decision-making, and overwhelm that keeps you stuck. In this episode, I'm breaking down why debt is almost never a sales problem and revealing the single most important metric you need to track to climb out of the hole and regain control of your business. Key Takeaways The Debt-Noise Cycle: Debt creates mental noise (guilt, shame, fear), which leads to overwhelm. Overwhelm leads to paralysis, keeping you stuck in the same financial patterns. The "Sales" Myth: Most business owners try to out-earn their debt. However, debt is usually a result of issues below the sales line: cost of goods, low margins, overspending, or poor purchasing discipline. The Golden Metric: If you focus on only one number to fix your debt, let it be your Gross Margin. This is your real margin after discounts, shipping, shrinkage, and fees—not just your initial markup. Operations & Margin: Margin isn't just about pricing; it's tied to operational efficiency. How you run your business daily directly impacts your profitability. Restructuring vs. Bankruptcy: You don't always need a massive, dramatic action (like filing for bankruptcy) to fix a massive debt. Incremental, disciplined changes to your margin can pay off hundreds of thousands of dollars over time. The Five Categories of a P&L Debt hides in the gaps between these five lines: Sales (The top line) Cost of Goods (Where the problem often starts) Gross Margin (The number to focus on) Expenses (Operational efficiency) Net Profit (The freedom fund) Actionable Steps for This Week Don't let the "noise" paralyze you. Choose one bite-sized action to take today: Get Honest: List out exactly what you owe. No more hiding from the total balance. Calculate Your Real Margin: Look at your numbers after all the "leaks" (discounts, fees, etc.) are taken out. Commit to Strategy: Move from "living sale-to-sale" to making disciplined, strategic financial decisions. Memorable Quotes "Debt creates noise... the noise creates overwhelm... and the overwhelm keeps you stuck." "Debt is almost never a sales problem. It's a cash flow structure problem. It's a margin problem." "Restructuring isn't dramatic. It's disciplined. Discipline builds profit, profit builds freedom, and freedom eliminates debt."

Market segmentation driven by rising memory costs is actively restructuring the endpoint device landscape, leading to margin redistribution across the technology stack. Apple exemplified this bifurcation strategy by launching an entry-level MacBook Neo at $599 built on the A18 Pro iPhone chip, while simultaneously increasing prices on other MacBook Air and Pro models by $100 to $400 in response to global memory shortages. This deliberate move separates high-margin premium hardware from low-cost devices, effectively diminishing the traditional mid-tier device segment where most SMB and MSP standards have typically been positioned. Supporting data highlights the broader industry impact: 62% of small businesses report ongoing supply chain disruption, affecting pricing, timing, and availability, according to recent NFIB survey data. Component suppliers such as Broadcom are capturing upstream value, with a reported 29% year-over-year revenue increase driven by concentrated AI infrastructure demand. Omnia's forecast anticipates a significant smartphone shipment decline in 2026, primarily attributed to rising memory costs and uneven impact, disproportionately squeezing entry-level devices while preserving premium margins. A parallel challenge emerges within organizational governance and service delivery. The Logicalis Global CIO Report 2026 found over half of CIOs believe AI adoption is outpacing their management capabilities, with 90% of organizations lacking internal technical expertise yet 72% planning further AI investment. This gap between ambition and readiness, combined with traditional ticket-based operating models, means unmanaged risk increases as businesses prioritize speed over structured governance. Internal IT builds are increasingly abandoned, with 71% of IT and security leaders reporting failure to meet on-time and budget targets, signaling that velocity and accountability, not just ticket closure, are becoming core client expectations. Implications for MSPs and IT service providers are immediate and operational. Service models must account for hardware segmentation by incorporating differentiated support structures for entry-level versus premium devices. Increased complexity and support demands from constrained hardware will compress margins unless properly priced and standardized. MSPs are positioned closest to liability accumulation as clients face both hardware refresh and AI adoption without sufficient internal expertise. Advisory frameworks should address total cost of ownership, memory shortage context, and governance gaps, productizing assessments and redesigning service delivery for speed with explicit controls to manage risk. Three things to know today 00:00 Memory Costs Squeeze Entry-Level Hardware as Suppliers Capture Margin Upstream 02:24 Apple's $599 MacBook Neo Signals a Split Hardware Strategy, Not a Budget Play 04:22 IT Service Models Built on Approvals Are Losing to Speed-First Competitors 06:57 Why Do We Care?  Supported by:

When Heritage Foundation officials unveiled Project 2025 in April 2023, they presented what they called a comprehensive roadmap for restructuring American government. What emerged was a 920-page blueprint called Mandate for Leadership that has since become one of the most consequential policy agendas in modern political history.At its core, Project 2025 seeks to consolidate executive power by placing the entire federal government's executive branch under direct presidential control. This represents a dramatic expansion of presidential authority based on what critics call an expansive interpretation of unitary executive theory. The project explicitly calls for eliminating the independence of agencies like the Department of Justice, the Federal Bureau of Investigation, and the Federal Trade Commission.The scope of proposed changes is staggering. The Heritage Foundation's blueprint recommends dismantling entire agencies including the Department of Homeland Security and the Department of Education. It proposes abolishing the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau, which has returned 21 billion dollars to consumers harmed by bank fraud, and eliminating the Federal Trade Commission, responsible for enforcing antitrust laws. The project also targets the National Labor Relations Board, which protects workers' organizing rights.Beyond eliminating agencies, Project 2025 envisions radical workforce reductions. The document calls for replacing federal civil service workers with people loyal to what it describes as the next conservative president. It explicitly recommends dismissing all Department of State employees in leadership roles before January 20, 2025, and replacing them with ideologically vetted appointees who don't require Senate confirmation.The Trump administration's implementation since taking office in January has exceeded even these ambitious proposals. According to the Center for Progressive Reform, the administration has initiated or fulfilled more than 47 percent of Project 2025's domestic regulatory agenda. Government efficiency officials under Elon Musk have laid off or plan to lay off over 280,000 federal workers across 27 agencies. The Health and Human Services Department alone announced plans to cut 20,000 positions representing 25 percent of the agency.Policy changes target vulnerable populations with particular intensity. Project 2025 proposes slashing Medicaid funding through caps, work requirements, and converting the program into vouchers. It recommends narrowing the Department of Agriculture's role and increasing work requirements for food assistance recipients.The project's vision extends to law enforcement and civil rights. It characterizes the Department of Justice as a bloated bureaucracy infatuated with a radical liberal agenda and calls for making both the FBI and DOJ more directly accountable to the president while expanding death penalty eligibility.Courts have begun challenging implementation, with judges reinstating employees at USAID, the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau, and Voice of America after mass firings. These legal battles will define whether Project 2025's vision becomes law or faces constitutional limits on executive power.Thank you for tuning in today.

In this episode of the Debtwired Podcast, host Madalina Iacob is joined by Wariz Anifowoshe, Head of Restructuring at Fortress Investment Group, Kevin Fortunato, Portfolio Manager at Benefit Street Partners, and Scott Greenberg, Global Head of Restructuring at Gibson Dunn. A central theme of the discussion is AI-driven disruption, particularly in software, and how investors are positioning defensively while selectively hunting for opportunities. Panelists emphasize that AI risk is already reshaping maturity extensions, underwriting assumptions, and liability management decisions, especially for businesses facing rapid technological change. The group also explores what's driving the unprecedented speed at which loans are trading down from CLO technicals, group-formation risk, and growing familiarity with liability management exercises (LMEs). Speakers expect both more LMEs and an uptick in Chapter 11 filings this year, including failed LMEs from prior vintages where balance sheets were fixed, but businesses were not. They unpack why LMEs are neither inherently successes nor failures, why every situation is bespoke, and how sponsors and not creditors typically set these processes in motion. Finally, the speakers conclude that cooperation agreements (co-ops) remain an essential and widely used tool for collective creditor action, and there has been no meaningful slowdown in their use since Optimum filed an anti-co-op lawsuit against its creditors.

"The biggest one and the most impactful one is not making the time every week to work on the business. They get themselves into the rat race. They spend the money on these programs, and then they don't make the time to implement them. That's the biggest mistake that I see. Do the hard things 'cause we can all do hard things and it's okay if we screw up."–Teresa Slack In the final episode of this four-part series, co-founder of Financly Bookkeeping Solutions, Teresa Slack shares how her bookkeeping firm shifted from survival to stability by building the systems, pricing, and team structure needed to scale.

Matt “Money” Smith and Lorenzo Neal break down the Chargers' offseason priorities, starting with the ongoing conversation about restructuring Justin Herbert's contract and how it could create valuable cap space without limiting roster flexibility. The guys dive into the economics of the NFL salary cap, explaining how teams like Kansas City and Philadelphia manipulate contracts to stay competitive. From there, the focus shifts to free agency — particularly the urgency of fixing the center position and stabilizing the interior offensive line. The hosts debate whether to pursue top-tier options like Tyler Linderbaum, retain Zion Johnson, or allocate resources elsewhere, while also discussing the futures of Khalil Mack, Tuli Tuipulotu, and other key defenders. With FanDuel listing the Chargers among the top AFC contenders, the message is clear: the Super Bowl window is open — but it hinges on smart financial decisions and solidifying the trenches.

Islamic terrorists attacked the US Consulate in Benghazi on September 11, 2012, eleven years after the attacks on the World Trade Center. As noted previously, the Libyan nightmare was the result of a war that President Obama and Hillary Clinton started.  They never should have started the war in Libya, never should have placed Americans there unprotected, and when the Americans in Benghazi were under attack on 9-11, 2012 they should have provided help.  Instead, four Americans died in Benghazi as was famously portrayed in the movie 13 Hours. For days after the attack on Benghazi, President Obama and Hillary Clinton blamed the attack in Benghazi on a made up story about a US citizen who incited protests in Benghazi from a YouTube video about Islam. They continued with the story as the caskets of the four dead Americans, including Ambassador Chris Stevens, were shipped back to the US. Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton left the Consulate to fend for itself and never sent military support to rescue the men trapped at the Consulate. Attorney General Pam Bondi: On September 11th, 2012, Americans watched horrified as our embassy in Bengasi came under a vicious terror attack. We lost four American lives that day: Ambassador Chris Stevens, Sean Smith with the State Department, and two CIA contractors, Glenn Dordy and Tyrone Woods. We have never forgotten those heroes, and we have never stopped seeking justice for that crime against our nation. In fact, from day one, Cash and Dan would sit in meetings and say, We're going to get them, and they did. Today, I'm proud to announce that the FBI has arrested one of the key participants behind the Bengasi attack. Zubar Albaqash landed at Andrews Air Force Base at 03: 00 AM this morning.

The Government of Iran continues to restrict access to mobile, landline, and national internet networks. Airlines continue to limit or cancel flights to and from Iran. U.S. citizens should expect continued internet outages, plan alternative means of communication, and, if safe to do so, consider departing Iran by land to Armenia or Türkiye. Actions to Take: Leave Iran now. Have a plan for departing Iran that does not rely on U.S. government help. Flight cancellations and disruptions are possible with little warning. Check directly with your airlines for updates. If you cannot leave, find a secure location within your residence or another safe building. Have a supply of food, water, medications, and other essential items. Avoid demonstrations, keep a low profile, and stay aware of your surroundings. Monitor local media for breaking news. Be prepared to adjust your plans. Keep your phone charged and maintain communication with family and friends to inform them of your status. Enroll in the Smart Traveler Enrollment Program (STEP)  to receive the latest updates on security in Iran. If You Plan to Leave Iran:  U.S.-Iranian dual nationals must exit Iran on Iranian passports.  The Iranian government does not recognize dual nationality  and will treat U.S.-Iranian dual nationals solely as Iranian citizens. U.S. nationals are at significant risk of questioning, arrest, and detention in Iran. Showing a U.S. passport or demonstrating connections to the United States can be reason enough for Iranian authorities to detain someone.  U.S. citizens who do not have a valid U.S. passport in their possession should apply for one at the nearest U.S. embassy or consulate after departing Iran. The U.S. government cannot guarantee your safety if you choose to depart using the following options. You should leave only if you believe it is safe to do so.

Democrats Cry As Trump Makes It Easier to Fire Federal Workers The Trump administration is planning to make it easier to discipline—and potentially fire—career officials in senior positions across the government, a move that would affect roughly 50,000 federal workers. The U.S. Office of Personnel Management, which oversees the federal workforce, issued a final rule on Thursday that creates a category of worker for high-ranking career employees whose work focuses on executing the administration's policies. Workers who fall into that category would no longer be subject to rules that for decades have set a high bar for firing federal employees.  The Trump team, however, characterizes the move as one that gives the executive branch the ability to better shape the bureaucracy to help serve its agenda, instead of allowing it to clandestinely thwart it: The administration has been clear that the goal of the rule is to more easily fire workers they argue are hindering Trump policies — a nod to the president's claims of a “Deep State” within the federal government trying to undermine him. “This is not about people's views or ideas. This is about whether they are refusing to actually affect their duties on behalf of the American people consistent with the objectives of this administration,” said Scott Kupor, director of the Office of Personnel Management (OPM), which promulgated the rule.   Source: redstate.com https://twitter.com/drawandstrike/status/2020298873923567783?s=20   doesn’t agree with the 5th Circuit’s ruling. How in the world would you REINSTATE a policy where an illegal who successfully evaded detection at a port of entry has legal recourse to bond when those illegals detected at a port of entry do not? The 5th just rightfully found that NEITHER kind of illegal should have recourse to bond – whether they are detected at a port of entry or they successfully sneak into the country and are here for months/years before being caught. The fact this absurd situation persisted for decades shows you the system was rigged to allow human trafficking and to create a literal legal industry to facilitate it.      Trump can “legally” mass deport ALL illegals, whether they have committed a crime or not. “A federal appeals court ruled that Trump administration can lock up the vast majority of people it is seeking to deport without offering a chance for bond, even if they have no criminal records and have resided in the country for decades.        https://twitter.com/alexahenning/status/2020196173663867144?s=20 https://twitter.com/HansMahncke/status/2020253940374245522?s=20   https://twitter.com/DNIGabbard/status/2020227805976678574?s=20  control of the Whistleblower's complaint, so I obviously could not have “hidden” it in a safe. Biden-era IC Inspector General Tamara Johnson was in possession of and responsible for securing the complaint for months. – The first time I saw the whistleblower complaint was 2 weeks ago when I had to review it to provide guidance on how it should be securely shared with Congress. – As Vice Chair of the Senate Intelligence Committee, Senator Warner knows very well that whistleblower complaints that contain highly classified and compartmented intelligence—even if they contain baseless allegations like this one—must be secured in a safe, which the Biden-era Inspector General Tamara Johnson did and her successor, Inspector General Chris Fox, continued to do. After IC Inspector General Fox hand-delivered the complaint to the Gang of 8, the complaint was returned to a safe where it remains, consistent with any information of such sensitivity. – Either Senator Warner knows these facts and is intentionally lying to the American people, or he doesn't have a clue how these things work and is therefore not qualified to be in the U.S. Senate—and certainly not the Vice Chair of the Senate Intelligence Committee. Here is a detailed chronology of the situation: – June 2025, I became aware that a whistleblower made a complaint against me that after further investigation, neither Biden-era IC Inspector General Tamara Johnson nor current IC Inspector General Chris Fox found the complaint to be credible. – The complaint required special handling and storage in a safe because the complainant chose to include highly sensitive information within the complaint itself rather than referencing the sensitive reporting and leaving the complaint at a lower level of classification. – Security standards for complaints that include such sensitive intelligence required the Inspector General to keep the complaint and the intelligence referenced secured in a safe from the time the complaint was made, until now. – In June 2025 after Biden-era Inspector General Tamara Johnson completed her review of the complaint, no further oversight or investigative activity took place. – Biden-era Inspector General Johnson had communicated with me directly throughout the course of her investigation into this complaint, yet neither she nor anyone from her office informed me that the Whistleblower chose to send the complaint to Congress which would require me to issue security instructions. – When a complaint is not found to be credible, there is no timeline under the law for the provision of security guidance. The “21 day” requirement that Senator Warner alleges I did not comply with, only applies when a complaint is determined by the Inspector General to be both urgent AND apparently credible. That was NOT the case here. – I was made aware of the need to provide security guidance by IC Inspector General Chris Fox on December 4, 2025, which he detailed in his letter to Congress. – I took immediate action to provide the security guidance to the Intelligence Community Inspector General who then shared the complaint and referenced intelligence with relevant members of Congress last week. Senator Warner’s decision to spread lies and baseless accusations over the months for political gain, undermines our national security and is a disservice to the American people and the Intelligence Community. https://twitter.com/seanmdav/status/2020151219210137711?s=20   https://twitter.com/AlecLace/status/2019802427487027667?s=20 https://twitter.com/WallStreetMav/status/2020150184374681890?s=20 https://twitter.com/AlecLace/status/2019849309148311983?s=20 https://twitter.com/TheStormRedux/status/2019941561367191842?s=20 https://twitter.com/Rasmussen_Poll/status/2020183096667128211?s=20  2.

If you search as to why brain surgery is on the rise you will read it's due to advancements in technology. Less invasive techniques, AI-guided imaging, and robotics—which have made procedures safer, more precise, and more accessible. But to me it begs the question of why we are in need of so much brain surgery? My feeling is I would rather not have my head cut into. At all. In this episode I'm joined by a friend. Dr. Lee Warren is a brain surgeon at the top of field. And he is here to tell us that the most effective brain surgery we can do is through our thoughts. But he is not giving some motivational speech. He is being completely literal. He takes tools and instruments to dig into the human skull and literally restructure the brain, and he says you can do more and better restructuring with your thoughts. He leads us in understanding that our thoughts are creating our brain structure. When we have the same thoughts over and over we strengthen and create pathways, and to a degree, at this level he can't help you with any medical procedure. No surgery or resetting can overcome a concrete belief or fear you keep reinforcing. Lee's new book is called, The Life-Changing Art of Self-Brain Surgery: Connecting Neuroscience and Faith to Radically Transform Your Life. I'd encourage you to pull the book up on Amazon and click “read sample” and just peruse the contents and see his “10 Commandments of Self-Brain Surgery.” This alone will either inspire you or show you that you don't want to take the level of personal responsibility Lee is calling us to.

BONUS: Conflict Is the Yellow Brick Road to Success — How Embracing Conflict Transforms Teams and Leaders In this bonus episode, we explore why fear, conflict, and courage sit at the heart of true agility with Dan Tocchini, a leadership catalyst who has spent over four decades helping teams at organizations like ESPN, Disney, and Homeboy Industries break through the human barriers to high performance. Dan shares powerful stories and practical wisdom on how leaders can embrace conflict as a generative force, build trust through vulnerability, and restructure their teams for genuine agility. The Power of Vulnerability in Leadership "I'd rather have it on an honest basis, where she knows what I'm thinking, what I'm aiming at, and we're shoulder to shoulder, not head to head."   Dan's career-defining moment came when he told a CFO at ESPN — while he was competing against McKinsey for the same contract — that she was the problem behind her department's 75% turnover rate. Rather than sugarcoating or deflecting, Dan chose vulnerability and honesty, even at the risk of losing the contract. This radical transparency became his superpower. The CFO hired him, and within six months, turnover dropped to 15%. Dan stayed with ESPN for eight years. The lesson for Scrum Masters and leaders: you can only truly connect with someone if you're willing to be honest, even when it might cost you. Listening for Openings, Not Outcomes "Most people listen for outcomes. I listen for openings."   Dan draws a critical distinction between chasing outcomes and discovering openings. When faced with an angry car buyer who felt ripped off, Dan didn't try to close the sale. Instead, he leaned into the conflict, acknowledged the customer's perspective, and opened all the books. The result? A sale with 17% margin — above the dealership average — because the customer chose the price himself. For leaders, this means detaching from your desired outcome and focusing on understanding the opening in front of you. That shift builds trust and often produces better results than pushing for what you want. Why Team Drama Is a Distraction Strategy "Whenever there's drama, it's because people don't want you to see something."   Drama in teams happens because people are siloed, and they silo because they don't trust each other. They share only the information that serves their position without jeopardizing their role. The drama itself is a distraction — like a child throwing a tantrum so you'll forget what they did wrong. Dan's approach: ask three questions. What are they committed to causing? How much of that are they producing? And what's the story between the two? The problem is never the problem — the problem is how you think about the problem. Restructuring for Agility: A Restaurant Case Study "Your way of being needs to be bigger than the structure."   Dan illustrates agile restructuring through a top-25 restaurant in Boise where the general manager flows seamlessly between roles — bussing tables, coordinating with the kitchen, and leading the team — without ever pulling rank. The secret? He grounds his team before every shift with genuine connection, shared meals, and open dialogue. When he gives direction, people move — not from fear, but from respect. Structure alone won't solve problems; it only organizes them so you can see them better. Leaders must be committed to what the structure is designed to accomplish, altering it in motion when needed. Conflict as a Generative Force "What you're not willing to face will eventually defeat you."   Dan's core philosophy centers on embracing conflict rather than avoiding it. When people face conflict, they either seek comfort by avoiding it or realize what's at stake and find a way through. The Stoic principle "the obstacle is the way" applies: to find the path, you must hug the cactus and pull the problem close. In relationships — whether marriage, team, or client — breakdowns should deepen intimacy and trust. Dan reports that 90% of the time, authentically facing into mistakes with clients deepens relationships and keeps contracts alive. What Keeps Dan Going After Four Decades "People love to accomplish things they didn't think they could do. To me, that's exciting."   After more than 40 years in this work, Dan remains energized by working with people to accomplish challenges they initially thought impossible. He describes his work as akin to family — that same depth of connection and shared purpose. His one-liner: "We turn leadership into leadership." It sparks curiosity and opens conversations about what real leadership transformation looks like. About Dan Tocchini   Dan Tocchini has spent 35+ years working with leadership teams across the spectrum — from ESPN to nonprofits like Defy Ventures — helping them evolve from functional to fully alive. His work focuses on the human systems that make agile succeed… or silently kill it.   You can find out more about Dan and his leadership training programs at TakeNewGround.com.

Can We Say Anything Meaningful About a Venezuelan Debt Restructuring? Venezuela must restructure its debt if it, and its new "friends" in Washington DC, want the economy humming again. But how? The debt stock is enormous and the range of claims so vast that normal techniques are unlikely to work. And typically, before anything could happen, the IMF would need to go in and assess the actual situation on the ground. All this takes time. But we imagine that the folks in Washington DC want to declare their adventure a success, and soon. Is that impulse consistent with an orderly, comprehensive debt restructuring? For that matter, what would a restructuring look like if we also assume that Washington wants to line its own pockets with Venezuelan oil revenues, and perhaps to give preferential treatment to oil major creditors (to entice them back into Venezuela)? We don't have answers — but we suspect that those folks in DC don't either. Producer: Leanna Doty

The cannabis industry is more competitive then it was 5-10 years ago. But that doesn't mean it's broken. In this episode, I talk with Jeff Wissink, Partner at Paladin Restructuring. We cover what's really happening inside cannabis businesses today. We cover what is forcing owners to rethink where they spend money, when to engage a restructuring professional and why growing through M&A is harder than it looks. The message is clear: the rules changed, and smart operators are adjusting.Jeff explains Paladin's two main ways of helping companies. Restructuring is for emergencies like missing payroll, missing debt covenants or running out of cash. Performance improvement is about fixing problems early so the business can make more profit and avoid a crisis. Using his past experience as a cannabis COO, Jeff shares why one simple number SG&A as a percent of revenue can show what's working and what's not. He also explains why cutting back too much on finance and HR can hurt growth. And why waiting until the last minute leaves very few good choices. We wrap up by talking about leadership, survival, and what comes next for cannabis. Jeff uses a fun example of kids all chasing the soccer ball to explain why clear roles matter as companies grow. He also breaks down why retail is costly and why strong operations matter more than hype. He is nice but honest, if owners and investors focus on cash flow, teamwork, and smart systems now, they'll be in a great spot when the industry settles down and new opportunities open up.

We look at the Air India Boeing 787 crash and the friction between investigators, Boom Supersonic's plan for stationary power generation, Spirit Airlines' new labor agreements, the canceled TSA labor contract, DHS purchase of Boeing 737s, ethics and the FAA Administrator, the V-22 Osprey accident rate, A-10 retirement postponement, return of PanAm, and fumes in the cabin. Aviation News Air India Boeing 787 Crash Probe Leads to Tussle Between Investigators India's Aircraft Accident Investigation Bureau (AAIB) and U.S. agencies, such as the NTSB and FAA, investigating the Air India crash have clashed over where and how to read out the flight recorders, access to evidence, and the overall pace and transparency of the investigation. U.S. officials reportedly feared a lack of openness, while Indian officials pushed back strongly against what they saw as outside interference and challenges to their competence. Boeing 787, courtesy Air India. Preliminary technical findings point toward the 787's fuel control switches being moved from “RUN” to “CUTOFF,” starving both engines of fuel shortly after takeoff. Some U.S. sources suspect deliberate pilot action, while Indian authorities have downplayed pilot culpability in public. Source article in the Wall Street Journal: Officials Clash in Investigation of Deadly Air India Crash Air India Admits Compliance Culture Needs Overhaul After Flying Airbus Without Permit, Document Shows An Air India investigation found that one of its Airbus planes conducted eight commercial flights without an airworthiness permit. “Systemic failures” were cited, and the airline admitted it needed to make compliance improvements. Boom Supersonic Secures Breakthrough AI Engine Deal Boom Supersonic is developing the Symphony propulsion system to power its Overture supersonic airliner. At the same time, AI data centers require enormous compute power, and they need energy to do that. Boom says that it will develop the land-based Superpower 42-megawatt natural gas turbine, based on the Symphony engine. If successful, the Superpower would generate a revenue stream and provide operating data. Crusoe Energy has 29 Superpower units on order, with delivery expected in 2027. Major aero‑derivative OEMs offering ground power generation​ include: General Electric, Siemens Energy, Mitsubishi Power, Rolls‑Royce, and Kawasaki Heavy Industries. AvWeek reports that Boom has closed a $300 million funding round, which the company says, together with the AI gas turbine deal, will be sufficient to complete development of the Symphony and initial Overture aircraft.

Shortly after takeoff, the plane narrowly avoided a collision with a US Air Force refueling tanker. Spirit Airlines Reaches Another Milestone in its Restructuring as Pilots and Flight Attendants Ratify Agreements Spirit Airlines announced the ratification of labor agreements with pilots (represented by the Air Line Pilots Association) and flight attendants (represented by the Association of Flight Attendants-CWA). The two agreements are subject to court approval. 82% of the pilots voted in favor of the contract, which allows temporary reductions in pay rates and retirement contributions effective January 1, 2026. Pay rates are restored through guaranteed increases on August 1, 2028, and January 1, 2029. Company-funded retirement contributions will be fully restored by July 1, 2029. See ALPA Press Release: Spirit Airlines Pilots Ratify Restructuring Agreement. US invalidates union contract covering 47,000 TSA officers, AFGE vows to challenge The American Federation of Government Employees represents airport screening officers and plans to file a lawsuit after Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem terminated the collective bargaining agreement. DHS plans to implement a new labor framework on January 11, 2026, when the collection of union dues from TSA officers’ paychecks will cease. TSA said the new labor framework “will return the agency back into a security-focused framework that prioritizes workforce readiness, resource allocation and mission focus with an effective stewardship of taxpayer dollars.” US signs nearly $140m deal to purchase six Boeing 737s for use in deportations The Department of Homeland Security signed a contract with Arlington, Virginia-based Daedalus Aviation Corporation to purchase six Boeing 737 planes for deportation operations. DHS spokesperson Tricia McLaughlin said: “This new initiative will save $279m in taxpayer dollars by allowing ICE to operate more effectively, including by using more efficient flight patterns.” Daedalus Aviation Corporation focuses on turnkey flight operations and specialized charter services for government and high‑stakes commercial clients. They emphasize contingency, evacuation, and other critical missions. Senator says FAA administrator failed to sell multimillion-dollar airline stake as promised Sen. Maria Cantwell (D-Washington) says FAA Administrator Bryan Bedford promised to sell his multimillion-dollar stake in Republic Airways under his ethics agreement, but he has failed to do so. Bedford agreed to sell all his shares within 90 days of his confirmation, but 150 days have now passed. In a letter to Bedford, Sen. Cantwell writes, “It appears you continue to retain significant equity in this conflicting asset months past the deadline set to fully divest from Republic, which constitutes a clear violation of your ethics agreement. This is unacceptable and demands a full accounting.” New V-22 Mishap Reviews Find Material Issues with Osprey, Poor Communication Between Services Two new reports point to faulty parts, poorly understood maintenance procedures, and a lack of communication across the services. The result was a lack of safety and reliability across the Navy, Air Force, and Marine Corps. One report was from the Naval Air Systems Command, and the other was from the Government Accountability Office. Both had been in the works for two years. Twenty people were killed in V-22 Osprey accidents from 2022 to 2024. Congress Postpones A-10 Retirement The A-10 Thunderbolt II (the Warthog) close support aircraft has been on the verge of retirement for years. The National Defense Appropriations Act (NDAA) directs the Air Force to keep at least 103 A-10 aircraft in its inventory until a phaseout in 2029. The NDAA limits retirement plans for other aircraft: KC-10 tankers, the F-15E Strike Eagle, and the E-3 Sentry surveillance plane. Delays in supplying replacements are cited as the reason. Pan Am plans future Airbus A320neo operations as part of Miami launch The “new Pan Am” is a startup effort to revive the Pan American World Airways brand as a U.S. Part 121 scheduled airline. Pan American Global Holdings acquired the rights to the Pan Am brand in 2023. Pan Am intends to deploy Airbus A320neo aircraft as part of its future operations in Miami. There are few details about the executive team, but Ed Wegel is described as a Pan Am co-founder. He is also the founder of AVi8 Air Capital, a niche aviation-focused investment and advisory firm with headquarters in the Miami, Florida area. The company is active in the relaunch of Pan Am, and this year (2025), they completed a comprehensive Pan Am business plan. Boeing Sued By Law Professor After Allegedly Inhaling Toxic Fumes On Cross-Country Flight A law professor who flew on a Boeing 737 aircraft operated by Delta Air Lines last year is suing Boeing, alleging that he suffered serious health issues after being exposed to toxic fumes in the cabin.

John is joined by Richard East and Karabeth Ovenden, partners in Quinn Emanuel's London Office. They discuss the unprecedented bankruptcy and restructuring of NMC, the largest healthcare provider in the United Arab Emirates (UAE). Initially listed on the London Stock Exchange and heavily favored by the market, NMC collapsed precipitated by a report by short-seller Muddy Waters raising significant questions about the audited accounts of the company. Ultimately it was revealed that NMC had approximately $6.5 billion in debt, rather than the $2.5 billion that had been disclosed to the market. Over 100 creditors rushed to seize NMC's assets across the UAE. The absence of a comprehensive UAE bankruptcy framework posed an existential threat to the company, especially because the crisis occurred during the COVID-19 pandemic when NMC facilities were treating a significant portion of the country's COVID hospitalizations.To address this crisis, a team of QE insolvency litigators initiated administration proceedings first in the UK for NMC's parent company. However, this did not protect NMC's UAE-based operating entities. To protect those assets and preserve continuity of care, the QE team adopted the novel strategy of moving 36 NMC operating companies into the Abu Dhabi Global Market (ADGM), a common-law “free zone” jurisdiction within the UAE. This required a sovereign executive order to release existing asset attachments and allow for insolvency proceedings in the ADGM—an unprecedented step in UAE restructuring history.The move faced significant jurisdictional and legal resistance across the various Emirates. Recognition of the ADGM orders in onshore courts was difficult, requiring extensive legal argumentation and government coordination. Once inside the ADGM, the companies could proceed with a complex reorganization plan, culminating in a successful arrangement which obtained support from over 90% of the creditors. The team also navigated criminal investigations, litigated against dissenting creditors, and pursued claims against parties potentially complicit in the fraud. Podcast Link: Law-disrupted.fmHost: John B.
