Stephanie is a Cooley Law School Graduate and works as the Founder of Growthset Coaching. Stephanie's Legal journey was a constant tug and pull with the Law. With a Global upbringing and having lived in Costa Rica for a couple of years, College brought her interests together, and she decided the legal route was for her. Stephanie and I started after she graduated from Mount Holyoke College. She would go on to join the Women's Bar Association, which she highly suggests, and also become a Legal Assistant for a year. Stephanie described her pre-law legal job as a critical experience in preparing her for Law School, which is one of the best ways to build a network and gain great insights into what the Law School experience is like. Following this, Stephanie spoke about her first year at Cooley Law School, saying that it was incredibly difficult, overwhelming, and truly an experience unlike anything else she has ever encountered. She suggested how crucial having a support system is, talking to Peers at the school, and saying yes to every opportunity you can get your hands on. Also, Stephanie suggested using a physical timer to keep you focused and using your voice to study while cooking, cleaning, or any other daily activities. Finally, we spoke about her experiences after Law School, finding what sector of the Law she enjoyed most. Each experience would be delved into, leading us to her opening Growthset Coaching, something that stemmed from her experience as a TA, helping Neurodivergent Law Students gain the techniques and principles they need to flourish in Law School. This episode with Stephanie is a fantastic one, full of quick tips for those in and out of Law School to live out your legal dreams!

#SWAMPWATCH – Trump Escalates Rhetoric Against Iran, Calls for ‘Unconditional Surrender'. Parents say their children coming home from college are “roommates from hell”. #WELLNESS – Kraft Heinz to remove artificial dyes from food products.

The rhetoric and violence are both escalating on all sides in the Iran-Israel war. U.S. President Donald Trump is now demanding Iran's unconditional surrender, while appearing to threaten the country's supreme leader. Iran and Israel are firing missiles at each other. And Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu hints at regime change – in Iran.Also: Mark Carney is trying to make the most of what's left of the G7 in Alberta. The leaders kept their meetings going without the most consequential member: Trump. The U.S. president left last night – one day ahead of schedule. Even without him, leaders are focused on delivering more help to Ukraine and putting more pressure on Russia.And: New warnings about colorectal cancer. More young people are being diagnosed with it – and advocacy groups are calling for screening at a younger age.Plus: Indigenous groups protest the One Canadian Economy bill, 23andme fails to protect privacy, and more.

On a recent episode of The View, the hosts strongly criticized the rise in political violence and the rhetoric fueling it. Their comments followed the tragic killing of a Minnesota state representative, which some believe was politically motivated. The co-hosts condemned inflammatory language from public officials, while refusing to evaluate their own inflammatory language.

How should Christians approach immigration, justice, and faith in today's cultural climate? In this episode of the Voxology Podcast, Mike and Tim dive into "Joyful, Peaceful, and Gracious Noncompliance," exploring what scripture teaches about welcoming the stranger, showing compassion, and advocating for justice. Drawing on the work of experts like Matthew Soerens and their own reflections, they tackle the complex intersections of cruciformity, faith and politics, and the role of the church in society. Through real-life stories, scripture analysis, and discussions on cultural challenges, they address the dehumanizing language often used in immigration debates, the tension between legality and justice, and the church's responsibility to embody the teachings of Jesus. What does it mean to love our neighbor, especially when they are vulnerable? How can the church navigate these issues with humility, courage, and hope? Engage with thoughtful insights, critical questions, and a call to action to advocate for justice in peaceful, gracious ways. Feel free to email your questions, share your perspectives on social media, and join the conversation as we pursue faithfulness to Jesus in a complex world. Together, let's reflect on how Christianity can shape a more just and compassionate society. #news #newstoday #greencard #biblestudy #faithandjustice Chapters 00:00 Introduction and Context of Immigration Discussion 02:50 Personal Stories and Anecdotes on Immigration 06:06 The Role of the Church in Immigration Issues 09:05 Current Administration's Immigration Policies 11:58 Language and Rhetoric in Immigration Discourse 14:51 Understanding Different Types of Immigrants 17:46 Legal Status and Its Implications 21:01 Biblical Perspectives on Immigration 23:54 Theological Arguments for Compassionate Immigration Policies 27:12 Conclusion and Call to Action 51:12 The Call to Welcome Strangers 52:34 God's Heart for the Vulnerable 53:30 The Church as Foreigners and Exiles 58:12 Christian Identity and Immigration 01:01:51 Citizenship in the Kingdom of God 01:08:34 The Role of Government and Justice 01:15:21 Advocacy and Non-Compliance 01:21:47 The Church's Responsibility in Advocacy As always, we encourage and would love discussion as we pursue.

It's fair to say Christopher Luxon's had a rough run at the top. The transition from CEO to PM hasn't been all that smooth. His approval ratings have been way out of whack with those of any predecessor at the same time in their reigns. We hardly saw a honeymoon. One of the problems has been communication. You ask people and they tell you: it's hard to connect with him. We don't really get what he's about. His loudmouth coalition partners have largely filled the personality void to his detriment. As a business executive, you've got to optimistic. You've got to project positivity, and that positive, upbeat style has jarred with the reality of our economy. The more he said things are improving and this economy is turning a corner, the more out of touch he has sounded. Jacinda Ardern encountered this problem when she refused to call the cost of living crisis a crisis. You lose the room. It's like a bit like trying to entertain a crowd of Metallica fans with a choir - a bit of a bum note. And that problems has befallen Luxon. Until now. Despite this morning's card data going sideways, there's no doubt the economy's on the up. We're about to see another jump in GDP next week as we get Q1 data, which follows positive Q4 data. Treasury reckons this current year will see growth hitting almost 3%. Thanks to our exporters and global conditions, there's light at the end of the tunnel. You can feel it - shops are filling up. Manufacturing's on the up. Company's are hiring. And this is massive for Luxon because it means his rhetoric is starting to match the reality. It's the missing piece of the puzzle that could turn his political fortunes around. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Stephen Nast is a Recent Graduate from Liberty University School of Law. Stephen's journey began after hearing his pastor ask, 'What would you regret not doing?' This moment would bring the law school to his attention and start his pursuit. Stephen and I started in his first year of Law School. With a family at home, he was ultra-motivated to succeed and navigate Law School with ease. He leaned into the curriculum and faculty to help him maneuver his way through Law School. While still challenging, Stephen was able to build an effective system for himself. Following this, Stephen talked about his two experiences outside of Law School, learning how to work with clients, and trying different sectors of the Law to see what sticks. His most important takeaway was to say yes to every opportunity, as you never know what lies on the other side of it. Finally, we spoke about Stephen's participation in Rhetoric's Moot Court Madness Competition, noting its uniqueness, and how legal tech can play an integral part in Law Schools across the country. We ended off with how faith and God played a crucial role throughout his life, and in Law School. Congratulations to Stephen for graduating from Law School and taking home a treasure trove of awards in his final semester. Stephen is certainly someone to look out for in the future!

Griff Jenkins, national correspondent for Fox News, joined The Guy Benson Show today to unpack Hakeem Jeffries' alarming rhetoric about potentially doxing anonymous ICE agents. Jenkins explained why sanctuary jurisdictions not only fail to protect communities but actually lead to more crimes and arrests, and Guy and Griff broke down how Democrats continue to misread the room by defending criminal illegal aliens on an issue they've consistently lost public support over.

This explosive segment confronts escalating tensions between ICE agents and progressive activists, highlighting a violent San Diego incident where agents were attacked by protesters. The host accuses top Democrat leaders—like Cory Booker and Dan Goldman—of endangering ICE agents through incendiary rhetoric, doxxing demands, and refusal to change immigration laws legally. The monologue also delves into deeper issues of government overreach, including alleged FBI surveillance of traditional Catholics based on biased sources like the Southern Poverty Law Center. With strong language and urgent tone, the segment argues that political persecution and media-driven extremism are pushing the U.S. toward dangerous territory.

Watch the Q&A session here: https://youtu.be/VOGzTymAYnoFor many modern thinkers, the lawgiver has been important as a founder or re-founder of civic identity and cultural values. From Machiavelli on Moses; to Rousseau on Solon, Lycurgus, and the need for a lawgiver to make a true social contract possible; to Nietzsche and his followers seeking a lawgiver who can be also poet and prophet, this lecture will explore the figure of the lawgiver and how it has been a center of debate in modern political philosophy.This lecture was recorded by Melissa Lane on 29th May 2025 at Barnard's Inn Hall, London.Melissa Lane is Gresham Professor of Rhetoric.Melissa is also the Class of 1943 Professor of Politics, Princeton University and is also Associated Faculty in the Department of Classics and Department of Philosophy.

And through that vision, Wes is also one of the most artistic directors of his generation!

What if everything you were taught about health, science, and medicine was wrong?Dr. Andrew Kaufman—a former psychiatrist and medical researcher—walked away from a successful career to speak the truth about modern medicine, even when it cost him his income, reputation, and relationships. In this eye-opening conversation, he reveals the false foundations of the medical industry, the dangers of compliance, and how we can raise critical thinkers and future leaders in a world that rewards conformity.If you've ever felt like something doesn't add up—you're not alone. Dr. Kaufman explains why asking hard questions is the first step toward real freedom, health, and leadership.Quotes:"I'm primarily motivated by justice. It's one of the most important influences for my professional life." - Dr. Andrew Kaufman"Our destiny as humans on this planet is that we're all supposed to have abundance." - Dr. Andrew Kaufman"We're giving opportunities, or we're helping families home educate work, we're helping families raise their kids in a way that is exactly in line with what we're talking about here, to be able to think for yourself." - Matt Beaudreau Key Takeaways:· Audit Your Health Beliefs: Ask yourself, "What do I believe about health, medicine, and disease—and why?" Take time to research the origins of those beliefs. Start with one area (like germ theory or pharmaceutical use) and look for primary sources.· Start Learning Like an Autodidact: Choose one topic you've always been curious about and study it independently for 30 days. Use books, scientific papers, and interviews—not just search engines. Reflect: Can I teach this to someone else?· Reassess Your Children's Education: If you're a parent, evaluate whether your child's education supports critical thinking and self-learning. Consider incorporating the Trivium (Grammar, Logic, Rhetoric) into your homeschool or afterschool approach.· Clean Up One Area of Your Lifestyle: Pick one health domain—like food, water, air, or personal care—and take one action to remove toxins or processed chemicals. Example: swap conventional cleaning products for natural alternatives.· Join or Build a Parallel Community: Look for local groups, meetups, or online communities that share values of sovereignty, truth-seeking, and natural living. Don't isolate—build alliances that challenge mainstream narratives.Conclusion: Dr. Andrew Kaufman's journey reminds us that true leadership means standing for truth—even when it costs you everything. In a world filled with noise, compliance, and fear, he chose clarity, courage, and integrity. His message is a call to action: to question what we've been taught, to seek knowledge for ourselves, and to raise a new generation of thinkers who value truth over comfort.Whether you're a parent, a student, a professional, or simply someone who feels like the system isn't working—this conversation challenges you to dig deeper, live more consciously, and lead by example.Because freedom begins where blind obedience ends.

Tonight on The Last Word: Conservatives slam Donald Trump's tariffs as unconstitutional. Also, tourism from nations hit by Trump's tariffs plummets. Plus, while leaving his White House role Elon Musk dodged a question about a New York Times reports on his alleged drug use on the campaign trail. And Trump pardons criminals convicted of tax and fraud crimes. Jared Bernstein, Nevada Attorney General Aaron Ford, Ruth Ben-Ghiat, and Brendan Ballou join Ali Velshi.

Great strategy starts with a question—and a story worth believing in.A good strategy isn't just built—it's told. For Martin Reeves, chairman of the BCG Henderson Institute and author of The Imagination Machine and Like: The Button That Changed the World, strategy and imagination are both deeply communicative processes, rooted in storytelling, curiosity, and the courage to reframe assumptions.“A strategy is really just a special kind of story,” Reeves explains. “It begins with the present and aspires to a different future—it's fiction made actionable.” To bring that fiction to life, leaders must involve their teams in a co-creative journey and use thoughtful questions to shape not just ideas, but belief and action.In this episode of Think Fast, Talk Smart, Reeves joins Matt Abrahams to explore how communication fuels strategic thinking, innovation, and organizational reinvention. He outlines his six-step framework for imagination—from embracing anomalies to codifying and continuing ideas—and underscores the role of reframing, deep listening, and even levity in solving complex problems. Together, they unpack how a single “like” button changed our digital behaviors—and what it teaches us about influence and attention today.Episode Reference Links:Martin Reeves Martin's Books: Like / The Imagination Machine Ep.71 Strategy Success: How to Communicate Your Gameplan Connect:Premium Signup >>>> Think Fast Talk Smart PremiumEmail Questions & Feedback >>> hello@fastersmarter.ioEpisode Transcripts >>> Think Fast Talk Smart WebsiteNewsletter Signup + English Language Learning >>> FasterSmarter.ioThink Fast Talk Smart >>> LinkedIn, Instagram, YouTubeMatt Abrahams >>> LinkedInChapters:(00:00) - Introduction (02:19) - Using Story in Strategy (05:00) - Questions as a Communication Technology (06:15) - The Six Steps to Harnessing Imagination (10:36) - The “7 Cs” of Imagination and Communication (12:08) - Reframing as a Creative Tool (14:11) - The Like Button: Origin and Evolution (16:14) - Brain Chemistry Behind Digital Liking (18:12) - The Final Three Questions (22:59) - Conclusion    *****This episode is sponsored by Stanford.

Eric is a graduate of the University of Baltimore School of Law and currently works as a Litigation Attorney at WGK Personal Injury Lawyers. Not only have I known Eric since I was 5, but hearing his riveting journey to the Law was a full-circle moment for me, and an excellent episode that anyone can learn from! Eric and I started before his introduction with his first run-in with Law School at Touro Law Center. Eric always wanted to be a Lawyer since he was 5 years old, with many of his relatives being Lawyers, and working in his Uncle's Law Office since he was young. Following his graduation from Plattsburgh, Eric would head off to Touro Law Center. Although after his father, my legendary lifetime lacrosse coach, was struck with cancer in the fall, Eric would miss out on the GPA minimum in his first semester and would be dismissed. But this wouldn't stop him, as the following fall, he would land himself at the University of Baltimore School of Law. With a new city to explore and having the prior experience of 1L, Eric would excel in his first year and beyond in Law School. Eric and I would discuss the various experiences he had throughout Law School, and how he came to find out that Personal Injury Litigation would be the path for him. Finally, we spoke about his post-Law School experiences and where he works today at WGK Personal Injury Lawyers. He spoke about identifying a company's culture and learning how to build up cases. He emphasized asking questions and always being available to help at any opportunity. This episode with Eric was a sentimental one for me, and I would be remiss not to shout out the entire Suris family for all that they have done for me and my family throughout the years!

After a pause, The Philosopher & The News is back! In fact, we have been back since last September of 2024, in the form of a series of live online events in partnership with The Philosopher journal that have then featured in The Philosopher's YouTube Channel. But  we thought it's about time we updated our usual podcast channel too. In this episode I spoke with Robin Reams about The Power of Rhetoric in Polarized Times less than a month before the US election. Did Trump manage to get elected once again using the rhetorical tricks that the Sophists used to undo Athenian democracy? Or does our era of memes, Twitter and fake news mean that demagogue's methods have changed?  Robin Reames is associate professor of English and Culberston chair at IU Blumington, specializing in rhetorical theory and the history of ideas. Her latest book is The Ancient Art of Thinking For Yourself: The Power of Rhetoric in Polarized Times (Basic Books, 2024)If you enjoyed the episode, please leave us a rating and a review on Apple Podcasts.This podcast is created in partnership with The Philosopher, the UK's longest running public philosophy journalm founded in 1923.

What does liberty entail? How have concepts of liberty changed over time? And what are the global consequences? Liberty as Independence: The Making and Unmaking of a Political Ideal (Cambridge UP, 2025) surveys the history of rival views of liberty from antiquity to modern times. Quentin Skinner traces the understanding of liberty as independence from the classical ideal to early modern Britain, culminating in the claims of the Whig oligarchy to have transformed this idea into reality. Yet, with the Whig vision of a free state and civil society undermined by the American Revolution of 1776, Skinner explores how claims that liberty was fulfilled by an absence of physical or coercive restraint came to prominence. Liberty as Independence examines new dimensions of these rival views, considering the connections between debates on liberty and debates on slavery, and demonstrating how these ideas were harnessed in feminist discussions surrounding limitations on the liberty of women. The concept of liberty is inherently global, and Skinner argues strongly for the reinstatement of the understanding of liberty as independence. Illustrates the connections between philosophical debates surrounding liberty and the sociopolitical contexts in which they took place Provides a comprehensive analysis and bibliography of rival ways of thinking about liberty Explores the contribution of the American Revolution to discussions on the idea of liberty Quentin Skinner is Emeritus Professor of Humanities at Queen Mary University of London. He was at the Institute for Advanced Study at Princeton between 1974 and 1979, and was Regius Professor of History at the University of Cambridge between 1996 and 2008. He is the author and editor of numerous books on Renaissance and Modern Intellectual History, and the recipient of many awards including the Wolfson Prize for History and a Balzan Prize. Previous publications include the two-volume study, The Foundations of Modern Political Thought (Cambridge, 1978), Liberty before Liberalism (Cambridge, 1998) and, most recently, From Humanism to Hobbes: Studies in Rhetoric and Politics (Cambridge, 2018).

According to a newly unsealed FBI affidavit, Elias Rodriguez, the man accused of killing two Israeli diplomats outside the Capital Jewish Museum in Washington, D.C., on Wednesday night, could face the death penalty. When Rodriguez was apprehended he began shouting 'Free Palestine', a popular anti-Semitic slogan often being used during college campus protests across the country that sometimes turn violent. It begs the questions, are the anti-Israel protests at our nation's schools beginning to inspire radicals to commit acts of violence? FOX's Eben Brown speaks with Julie Rayman, Managing Director of Policy and Political Affairs at the American Jewish Committee (AJC), who says the murders have shaken the Jewish community and the sharp rise of anti-Semitic rhetoric needs to watched.

"Touch some a**"

This heated radio commentary criticizes prominent Democratic figures—including Rep. LaMonica McIver, Gov. Tim Walz, and former FBI Director James Comey—for allegedly justifying or normalizing violence in political discourse. The hosts argue that a dangerous double standard exists: violence from the political left is excused as protest, while similar actions from the right are harshly punished. The discussion spans topics from ICE agent confrontations and Tesla dealership attacks to an IVF clinic bombing and perceived media gaslighting, suggesting an alarming cultural shift toward legitimizing left-wing violence as acceptable political expression.

Liberty as Independence: The Making and Unmaking of a Political Ideal (Cambridge UP, 2025) surveys the history of rival views of liberty from antiquity to modern times. Quentin Skinner traces the understanding of liberty as independence from the classical ideal to early modern Britain, culminating in the claims of the Whig oligarchy to have transformed this idea into reality. Yet, with the Whig vision of a free state and civil society undermined by the American Revolution of 1776, Skinner explores how claims that liberty was fulfilled by an absence of physical or coercive restraint came to prominence. Liberty as Independence examines new dimensions of these rival views, considering the connections between debates on liberty and debates on slavery, and demonstrating how these ideas were harnessed in feminist discussions surrounding limitations on the liberty of women. The concept of liberty is inherently global, and Skinner argues strongly for the reinstatement of the understanding of liberty as independence. Illustrates the connections between philosophical debates surrounding liberty and the sociopolitical contexts in which they took place Provides a comprehensive analysis and bibliography of rival ways of thinking about liberty Explores the contribution of the American Revolution to discussions on the idea of liberty Quentin Skinner is Emeritus Professor of Humanities at Queen Mary University of London.
