In this episode of Passing Judgment, Jessica Levinson unpacks the legal battle between California and the Trump administration over the federalization of the National Guard in Los Angeles. She explains the statutes at play, including the limits of the Posse Comitatus Act and the potential use of the Insurrection Act. Jessica details Judge Breyer's ruling in favor of California, outlines the key legal questions for the upcoming Ninth Circuit hearing, and gives insight into the judges involved in this high-profile case.Here are three key takeaways you don't want to miss: Presidential Power to Federalize the National Guard: Jessica Levinson opens by explaining the legal mechanisms the president attempted to use to federalize the National Guard and send them, along with Marines, into Los Angeles. She breaks down the relevant federal statute (Title 10, Section 12406), which gives the president limited power to federalize the National Guard under specific conditions, such as responding to rebellion or when federal law can't be enforced with regular forces.The Scope and Limits of Military Involvement – The Posse Comitatus Act: Jessica addresses the significance of the Posse Comitatus Act, which generally prohibits the use of the military for domestic law enforcement. Even if the National Guard is federalized, their direct involvement in law enforcement (like making arrests) is limited unless a separate statute (the Insurrection Act) is invoked.The Insurrection Act as an Exception: She describes how the Insurrection Act is an exception to the Posse Comitatus Act, allowing the military to more directly handle law enforcement under certain conditions (such as widespread unlawful conduct or when state authorities can't protect federal rights). She provides historical examples, such as federal intervention during desegregation in the 1950s and 1960s, and the Rodney King riots in 1992.Follow Our Host: @LevinsonJessica

The LA riots perfectly symbolize everything that is currently wrong with this country.The images of cars set ablaze, protesters tossing rocks at police and officers firing nonlethal rounds and tear gas at protesters hearkens back to the last time a president sent the National Guard to respond to violence on Los Angeles streets.But the unrest during several days of protests over immigration enforcement is far different in scale from the 1992 riots that followed the acquittal of white police officers who were videotaped beating Black motorist Rodney King.President George H.W. Bush used the Insurrection Act to call in the National Guard after requests from Mayor Tom Bradley and Gov. Pete Wilson. After the current protests began Friday over Immigration and Customs Enforcement raids, President Donald Trump ordered the deployment of 4,100 National Guard troops and 700 Marines despite strident opposition from Mayor Karen Bass and Gov. Gavin Newsom.University of Minnesota set to close Les Bolstad golf courseThe University of Minnesota announced last week plans to close the Les Bolstad golf course in Falcon Heights."We recognize this course holds generations of memories for our community," the statement from the University of Minnesota reads.

Trump continues to intentionally pour kerosene over the protest fires in California to give him the confrontation he wants to crack down on blue states and his political rival the Governor of California, now blowing a dog whistle to give permission to the National Guard and law enforcement to use excessive force and brutality to put down protests over Trump's immigration. Michael Popok compares this to Trump at the end of his first term giving police permission to “shoot” if they “loot,” and how this is the time for a Selma, Alabama moment to oppose Trump's fascist policies, not a Rodney King riot moment, and why it matters.

Desde la semana pasada Los Ángeles se ha convertido en el epicentro de una serie de protestas que han suscitado la atención nacional e internacional. Las protestas estallaron a causa de las redadas que está realizando el Servicio de Inmigración y Control de Aduanas. En estas operaciones, enfocadas en comercios, almacenes y otros centros de trabajo, se detuvo a más de cien inmigrantes ilegales que podrían ser deportados como ya le ha ocurrido a otros 70.000 inmigrantes detenidos. La operación forma parte de la política migratoria del gobierno de Donald Trump, que ha prometido deportar a todos los inmigrantes ilegales que residen en el país. El viernes comenzaron las manifestaciones, en origen pacíficas, pero pronto derivaron en disturbios callejeros. Las protestas se extendieron a otras partes de la ciudad en las que los manifestantes bloquearon calles con contenedores. La escalada llevó a Trump a federalizar la Guardia Nacional de California el sábado pasado. El lunes el Pentágono anunció el envío de 700 marines para proteger propiedades federales. Este despliegue, el primero desde 1965, se realizó sin el consentimiento del gobernador de California, Gavin Newsom, que demandará al gobierno federal por violar la soberanía estatal. El enrarecido clima político de Los Ángeles agrava la situación. En noviembre del año pasado, tras la reelección de Trump, el consejo municipal declaró la ciudad como santuario para inmigrantes y se negó a cooperar con las autoridades federales en temas migratorios. Esta decisión, sumada a la percepción de las redadas como un ataque a la comunidad inmigrante, muy numerosa en esta ciudad, ha movilizado a decenas de miles de angelinos. Aproximadamente el 34% de los 11 millones de habitantes del condado de Los Ángeles son inmigrantes, y se estima que 800.000 están sin papeles, lo que representa 8% de la población. Deportarlos, como propone Trump, ocasionaría un vacío laboral imposible de cubrir, dado que el desempleo en la ciudad es muy bajo. Esto revela cómo las promesa de deportaciones masivas de Trump son inviables en la práctica. Las protestas, con unos 150 detenidos hasta ahora, son pequeñas comparadas con los disturbios de 1992 por el caso Rodney King. Pero la presencia en la calle de marines, no entrenados para mantener el orden público, podría empeorar la situación. Trump justifica el despliegue militar como respuesta a la anarquía, la delincuencia y a ataques contra agentes del servicio de inmigración. Pero las redadas no están dirigidas a los delincuentes, sino a todos los indocumentados, la mayor parte de los cuales carecen de antecedentes penales. Con esto Trump busca satisfacer a su base electoral haciéndose ver como garante del orden frente a las débiles autoridades de ciudades y Estados gobernados por el partido Demócrata como Los Ángeles y California. Estos disturbios podrían ser el pistoletazo de salida para un “verano caliente” si las protestas se extienden a otras ciudades con alta población inmigrante como Nueva York, Chicago o Miami. La militarización de las calles, aunque útil desde un punto de vista meramente táctico, es arriesgada ya que la violencia puede descontrolarse en un país fuertemente armado en el que estos episodios terminan siempre con un alto número de muertos. Entretanto la situación favorece a Trump ya que mata tres pájaros de un tiro: aplica su programa migratorio, satisface a su electorado y avisa a otras ciudades demócratas cómo terminará la cosa si deciden echarle un pulso.

PRESS REVIEW – Tuesday, June 10: We look at reactions after protests in Los Angeles, where Donald Trump has sent in the National Guard. A video goes viral of an Australian reporter being shot with a rubber bullet in the middle of a live broadcast. Also, what comparisons can be made to the 1992 LA riots? Plus, here in France, the hit Netflix series "Adolescence" will be shown in schools to teach teenagers about toxic masculinity. We start with the protests in Los Angeles over increasing ICE arrests. The Australian press are headlining on the story. The conserative Melbourne daily Herald Sun headlines "Hell reigns in City of Angels" and notes that rubber bullets and tear gas have been used to disperse protesters. The Guardian Australia headlines on a viral video of Australian journalist Lauren Tomasi being shot with a rubber bullet during a live update, showing a guard appearing to deliberately aim in her direction. Her employer Channel 9 says the video serves as stark reminder of the inherent dangers journalists can face while reporting.Another Melbourne-based paper, The Age, writes that LA simmers as Donald Trump threatens to send troops everywhere. The paper's international editor Peter Hartcher writes that the confrontations we're seeing in LA are not "episodic or random". They are likely the opening scenes of a new phase in US history. He adds that the problem is not the principle of deporting illegal immigrants but rather the manner in which Trump is doing it – with an enthusiasm verging on bloodlust, he says. The San Francisco Chronicle publishes exclusive photos showing the deployment of troops as being "wildly underprepared." The photos show dozens of National Guard troops sleeping on the floor after Trump's rush to deploy them to LA without the approval of California Governor Gavin Newsom. Meanwhile, an excellent cartoon from British illustrator Ben Jennings cleverly sums up the situation. The previous deployments of the National Guard are also garnering a lot of attention in the press. The Associated Press notes that the deployment of National Guard troops is typically reserved for civil rights protests. It reminds us that the last time the National Guard were deployed to LA was in 2020, during the height of protests over the death of George Floyd. Some have also compared the protests to the 1992 LA riots, after the acquittal of White police officers for the beating death of Black man Rodney King. Time Magazine explains that the two are not comparable, notably because Trump invoked a section of the US code that allows the president to call in the National Guard when regular forces are not enough. But he did so without the approval of the governor, which is mandated in the code. Furthermore, the damage in 1992 was extensive when the troops were sent in. In LA right now, there is much less damage.In France, Politico is focusing on the plight of Franco-Algerian writer Boualem Sansal. The acclaimed novelist – a vocal critic of the Algerian regime – was arrested in Algiers last November, accused of undermining national unity. He's been sentenced to five years in prison. His case has garnered a lot of attention in France, which accuses Algeria of using him as a political pawn. Relations between France and Algeria deteriorated last year after France's recognition of Moroccan sovereignty over Western Sahara. Supporters of the writer have now turned to Europe for help. Sansal has been in and out of hospital since his arrest – he's suffering from cancer and his supporters are concerned about his medical care. So far, efforts to lobby the Algerian government to release Sansal have been ignored. His support group has also filed a complaint with the EU ombudsman in the hopes of keeping up the pressure.Staying in France, authorities are planning to use the hit Netflix series "Adolescence" to teach students about toxic masculinity. The series has been viewed 140 million times and garnered critical acclaim. Now the Guardian reports that France will follow in the footsteps of the UK, Netherlands and the Flanders region of Belgium. The French education ministry will offer schools five classes based on excerpts from the mini-series, which sparked a global debate about misogynistic content online and its impact on teenagers. You can catch our press review every morning on France 24 at 7:20am and 9:20am (Paris time), from Monday to Friday.

The IPS Evening Deprogram for June 8th, 2025 explores the intersection of psychological warfare, predictive programming, and reality construction. The host emphasizes that many events are not organic or random but are crafted as part of a long-term “meta script” designed to influence mass perception and behavior.The Pentagon fabricated the UFO myth and the Area 51 narrative to distract from experimental aircraft, seeding a belief system that replaces angels with aliens.This deception, the speaker argues, is part of a broader attempt to introduce a “new scientific paradigm” rooted in superstition.Quotes:“The Pentagon made it all up.”“They've replaced angels with aliens.”“They lied… to influence public opinion and culture.”Entertainment is framed as a weaponized medium used in psychological operations.UFO mythology, alien invasions, and disaster movies are cited as tools of propaganda.Quotes:“Entertainment is more or less a military operation.”“UFO-ology is government propaganda.”Media such as Final Destination, Leave the World Behind, and Fight Club are seen as predictive programming vehicles.Imagery like collapsing towers and doomed flights are interpreted as precursors to 9/11.Quotes:“You're experiencing 9-11 from the perspective of one of the passengers.”“9-11 was being destroyed in front of our eyes in many forms for decades.”Recurring dates like 6/11, 7/13, and the number 33 are highlighted as embedded signals in media and events.These dates connect to themes like blackouts, political assassinations, and media spectacles.Quotes:“Trump was shot at 6:11 — same date, same number.”“Rodney King was hit 33 times in 1 minute 19 seconds.”A growing narrative portrays Trump as an authoritarian tyrant ahead of a potential June 11th crisis.The media script seems to be setting up a symbolic or literal cataclysm around Trump, riots, and Los Angeles.Quotes:“Liberate Los Angeles from the migrant invasion.”“Trump is portrayed as a tyrant — sending in troops unnecessarily.”Generative AI like Sora and Grok expose how easily fake but convincing realities can be created.The speaker argues that AI panic is a staged crisis to justify censorship and protect the “worldview monopoly”.Quotes:“If you can conceptualize it, you can manifest it.”“This is a made-up crisis — the public cannot tell real from fake.”Both red-pill (conspiracy awareness) and woke (social justice awareness) are labeled false awakenings designed to trap and demoralize.True awakening is defined as escaping the media-scripted narrative entirely by adopting an “off-world stage” perspective.Quotes:“The red pill is a false awakening. The woke ideology is a false awakening.”“If you're not deprogrammed, you are programmed by default.”2025 is described as a pivotal year in theosophical circles — a predicted date for the externalization of the hierarchy (manifestation of spiritual guides).The speaker hints this could tie into how elites introduce new “teachers” to lead humanity in a post-truth world.Quotes:“2025 is the next step in spiritual evolution.”Scientists have developed a biological computer made from human brain cells derived from blood.This tech, capable of learning faster and using less energy than silicon chips, is likened to the concept of Astrocrete — human blood used in extraterrestrial construction.Quotes:“Biological fusion… a disturbing development.”“A computer made of human brain cells.”The speaker closes by encouraging listeners to subscribe to the newsletter and Discord, and to watch unfolding events with discernment, not dread — urging a “grab your popcorn” approach to the world stage's manufactured drama.

Los Ángeles vive en 2025 sus peores disturbios desde 1992, pero esta vez la chispa no fue un caso de brutalidad policial, sino las redadas masivas de ICE contra inmigrantes indocumentados. Con 118 detenciones en pocos días, la comunidad latina mayoritaria en la ciudad sintió esto como una agresión colectiva. Trump respondió desplegando 2,000 efectivos de la Guardia Nacional sin autorización del estado, rompiendo protocolos federales. Este análisis profundo explora los paralelismos con los disturbios de Rodney King, las causas políticas inmediatas, el impacto de la identidad cultural latina, las comparaciones con Europa, y cómo los medios moldean el relato. Más allá del conflicto local, este episodio revela tensiones globales sobre migración masiva y la necesidad de nuevos modelos para el siglo XXI, ya que las soluciones tradicionales han fracasado en ambos extremos del espectro político.Conviértete en un seguidor de este podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/el-podcast-de-marc-vidal--5231699/support.

In honor of Asian American and Pacific Islander Heritage Month, we bring you an episode from Inheriting Season One. Inheriting is a show about Asian American and Pacific Islander families, which explores how one event in history can ripple through generations. Carol Kwang Park was 12 years old, working as a cashier at her family's gas station in Compton, California, when the 1992 L.A. Uprising forever changed her life. Her mom was at the gas station that day and Carol was unsure if she'd even make it home. At the time, she didn't understand why tensions came to a head in Los Angeles, following the acquittal of the officers who beat Rodney King. She also never understood why her mother insisted on keeping the business going, especially after the Uprising. As an adult, a personal crisis prompts Carol to finally start processing that event and her place in history. Content Warning: This episode contains racial slurs and discusses police brutality.

This week marks 33 years since four police officers were acquitted in the brutal beating of Rodney King in Los Angeles. That verdict exploded into days of rioting and unrest across the city. It also ignited a national conversation about police brutality, as well as race and inequality in the criminal justice system. This week we're featuring an episode from Uncuffed, a podcast made by incarcerated people in California prisons in collaboration with KALW. We hear from Uncuffed's host Greg Eskridge and others who've been incarcerated about how the riots had a lasting impact on their lives. Greg Eskridge's story mentions abuse and violence, so please take care when listening. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

This Day in Legal History: Los Angeles RiotsOn April 29, 1992, the Los Angeles riots erupted following the acquittal of four LAPD officers charged with excessive force in the beating of Rodney King, an African American motorist. The brutal 1991 beating had been captured on video and widely broadcast, leading to public outrage. However, when a largely white jury in suburban Simi Valley found the officers not guilty of assault and use of excessive force, it sparked immediate and widespread unrest. Over six days, riots, looting, arson, and violence resulted in more than 60 deaths, thousands of injuries, and nearly $1 billion in property damage. The events prompted a national conversation about police accountability, racial injustice, and the legal standards for the use of force.Legally, the case led to significant developments: the U.S. Department of Justice later brought federal civil rights charges against the officers, resulting in two convictions. The riots also accelerated efforts to reform policing practices, sparked lawsuits, and influenced federal legislation concerning police oversight. The King case remains one of the most prominent examples in American legal history where video evidence, jury perception, and civil rights law collided in dramatic fashion.On Monday, U.S. law firm Jenner & Block is asking a federal judge to permanently block an executive order issued by President Donald Trump that penalizes the firm for its past employment of Andrew Weissmann, a prosecutor involved in the Russia investigation. Trump's order, issued on March 25, aims to restrict Jenner's access to federal facilities and terminate government contracts held by its clients. Jenner argues the order violates the First Amendment's protection of free speech and the Fifth Amendment's guarantee of due process. The case will be heard by U.S. District Judge John Bates, a Republican appointee, in Washington. Three other firms — Perkins Coie, WilmerHale, and Susman Godfrey — have also sued to block similar executive orders. So far, judges have temporarily halted major parts of Trump's orders in these cases. The broader context involves Trump's pressure campaign against law firms he views as politically opposed. Meanwhile, other major firms have pledged significant pro bono support to White House causes to avoid being targeted. Jenner is also suing the administration over its actions concerning transgender rights and agency funding freezes.US law firm Jenner asks court to permanently bar Trump executive order | ReutersPresident Donald Trump plans to sign an executive order requiring the Attorney General and Secretary of Homeland Security to compile a list within 30 days of cities and states that are not complying with federal immigration laws. The move escalates Trump's ongoing battle against so-called "sanctuary" jurisdictions, which limit cooperation with federal immigration enforcement. This follows a federal judge's recent decision blocking the administration from withholding funds from these jurisdictions. Trump officials highlighted a sharp drop in illegal border crossings since he took office, though deportations have fallen compared to Biden's administration. ICE detention centers are over capacity, leading the government to prepare facilities like Fort Bliss and to continue using Guantanamo Bay for migrant detention. Separately, controversy arose after a Wisconsin judge was arrested for allegedly helping a defendant avoid immigration authorities, an action defended by the Trump administration. Despite divided public opinion, Trump's immigration policies maintain relatively strong approval ratings compared to his handling of other issues.Trump to sign order requiring list of sanctuary cities, states, official says | ReutersMy column for Bloomberg this week argues that if Congress wants professional sports to be more equitable, accountable, and less reliant on taxpayer subsidies, it should rethink a looming tax change that would punish the Atlanta Braves—the only MLB team subject to full public oversight. A new cap on salary deductions for public companies under Section 162(m) is set to take effect in 2027, and while not aimed directly at sports teams, it would hit the Braves with an estimated $19 million annual tax hike. Meanwhile, billionaire-owned private teams would continue enjoying deduction benefits without similar transparency obligations.I explain that public ownership brings clear benefits: the Braves are required to file audited financials, face investor scrutiny on major spending decisions, and have less flexibility to threaten cities with relocation demands. Unlike private ownership groups that can easily pressure municipalities for stadium subsidies, publicly traded teams must answer to broader stakeholder interests. Moreover, public teams can raise capital through stock or bonds instead of leaning on taxpayers.Rather than penalizing the only team operating under these conditions, Congress should create incentives—like a targeted entertainment industry carveout—to encourage more public ownership. The goal isn't to give special treatment to the Braves, but to promote a model that favors transparency, accountability, and financial independence from taxpayers. Letting the current tax rule stand would send the wrong message: rewarding secrecy while punishing openness—and that's bad policy not just for baseball, but for public trust.

The 1992 Los Angeles uprising, sparked by the acquittal of officers in the brutal beating of Rodney King, exposed deep cracks in the systems meant to protect and serve. More than thirty years later, what actions can we take to create real public safety practices that center justice, equity, and community care?Joining us to explore these questions is John Kim, President and CEO of Catalyst California (formerly Advancement Project California). John shares his personal reflections on the uprising and how it continues to shape his work today.

Last week, Frank introduced three compelling reasons to believe in the resurrection, including embarrassing details and eyewitness testimony. In this midweek episode, he jumps back into more archaeological discoveries that include names of people involved in the death and crucifixion of Jesus and how the excruciating deaths of the eyewitnesses offer powerful evidence that they weren't lying as well. He also answers questions like:Did any of the apostles recant their eyewitness testimony and is it possible that they were hallucinating?Were the apostles motivated to invent the resurrection story and should their testimony be dismissed because they were Christians?Is martyrdom also evidence that Islam is true?What does Spiderman have to do with the reliability of the New Testament?Is the New Testament just a work of historical fiction?Can other world religions be defended with apologetics?Why are skeptics and non-Christians often motivated to reject Christianity?Later in the episode, Frank draws from major cultural events in modern U.S. history—like 9/11, the OJ Simpson trial, and the Rodney King incident—to reveal how human bias can shape the way we interpret evidence and how “impact events” can help us in evaluating the historicity of the New Testament.

Send us a textRev. Martin Luther King Jr. once said that "Riots are the language of the unheard" and in April of 1992, the black community in Los Angeles felt very unheard. The Previous year in 1991, 25 year old Rodney Glen King had been involved in a high speed chase. Noticing the spot light from a helicopter, Rodney realized that things had quickly gotten out of hand and, ended up pulling off Interstate 201, onto the right hand shoulder of Foothill Blvd. What followed was caught on video, by a nearby resident named George Holliday..... and the world would see one of the most horrific beatings, that did not result in death. By some miracle, Rodney was not killed, but doctors would say that some of his bones had been so pulverized that the looked like grains of sand...13 days after this, a 15 year old black girl named Latasha Harlins, at the request of her grandmother, had gone into a corner store to pick up some orange juice for her and her siblings, Latasha walked walked to the front counter with $2 in hand to pay for the 1.79 orange juice, again, this interaction was caught on film, the store owner seemed to have believed Latasha was going to steal the juice, despite the cash in her hand, after a short but intense interaction with the store owner, Latasha tried to walk away. The store owner would pull out her gun, and end the life of a 15 year old child. When Latasha's killer got off, with community service and a fine, the black community was horrified, and when the 4 officers who beat Rodney, nearly to death, were acquitted, they had had enough, and with in minutes the riots would begin. They would last for 6 days, leaving some neighbourhood, reduced to rubble.This is the case of the 1992 LA Riots.Support the showIf you're interested in receiving bonus episodes, early release dates, an everything scary sticker and ‘thank you' as well as a shout out on our regular feed!

What is lacking in today’s chaotic world is Emotional Intelligence. People can’t move through conflict, they can’t forgive, never forget, and keep a pound of flesh and a record of wrong. We won’t socialize with someone who votes differently than we do, and we judge others by their external features; The color of the skin, their sexual preference, who they vote for! It is a mess! To quote Rodney King, “Can’t we all just get a long?” What is lacking is EMOTIONAL INTELLIGENCE. Emotional intelligence is now seen as a “need to have” ingredient in the makeup of leaders. One of the early purveyors of the concept of EQ (Emotional Intelligence), Dan Goleman says this about EQ: “Without emotional intelligence, a person can have the best training in the world, an incisive, analytical mind, and an endless supply of smart ideas, but he still won’t make a great leader.” Goleman identified five elements of our make-up that we could attribute to emotional intelligence: 1-Self Awareness – How much do we understand about our own moods, states, and emotions. 2-Self Regulation – How good are we at thinking before we act? 3- Motivation – How strong is your desire to relentlessly pursue your goals? 4-Empathy – How easy do we find it to see another person’s point of view? How much do we understand about the emotional make-up of other people? 5-Social Skills – How easily are you able to build rapport and find common ground to effectively manage your relationships? In today’s hour of power Mr. Black will also share with you 2 tools that he uses to help others GROW THEIR EMOTIONAL INTELLIGENCE: Epigenetics and Neuro Linguistic Programming (NLP) Warriors it is time to get EQUIPPED- Like IT MATTERS!

Detective Rick Jackson, a decorated LAPD detective and a key inspiration in the development of Harry Bosch, delivers a shocking and immersive look into the one case he could never let go. In June 1990, Ronald Baker, a straight-A UCLA student, was found repeatedly stabbed to death in a tunnel near Spahn Ranch, where Charles Manson and his followers once lived. Shortly thereafter, Detective Rick Jackson and his partner, Frank Garcia, were assigned the case. Yet the facts made no sense. Who would have a motive to kill Ron Baker in such a grisly manner? Was the proximity to the Manson ranch related to the murder? And what about the pentagram pendant Ron wore around his neck? Jackson and Garcia soon focused their investigation on Baker's two male roommates, one black, and one white. What emerges is at once a story of confounding betrayal and cold-hearted intentions, as well as a larger portrait of an embattled Los Angeles, a city in the grip of the Satanic Panic and grappling with questions of racial injustice and police brutality in the wake of Rodney King. Rick Jackson, the now-retired police detective who helped inspire Michael Connelly's beloved Harry Bosch, along with co-writer, Matthew McGough, take us through the events as he and his partner experienced them, piecing together the truth with each emerging clue. Black Tunnel White Magic is the true story of a murder in cold blood, deception and betrayal, and a city at the brink, set forth by the only man who could tell it.

Guest: Rick Smith, CEO & Founder of Axon (formerly TASER)Being a founder-CEO is a “unique superpower,” says Axon's Rick Smith: People like him get a longer leash from the board to try things that outside CEOs might not.“My job is to push risk into the organization,” Rick says. “If there's a project with a 50 percent chance of success, a 50 percent chance of failure, but it's going to pay 100 to 1, any finance person will tell you, you should take that bet all day long.”One of those bets was the transition from running a weapons company called TASER into a broader public safety firm called Axon, which makes cloud-supported body cameras fro police, tactical drones, AI records management software and more. “If we never have a product failure, then we're not taking risks anymore and we're going to end up getting disrupted,” Rick says.Chapters:(01:09) - Tasers vs. guns (03:35) - Axon's growth (07:09) - Biggest surprises (09:33) - How TASER got started (13:11) - Reinventing the taser (17:24) - A humiliating launch (23:33) - Rick's family (26:14) - The Auto Taser failure (30:21) - The darkest days (34:26) - Hans Marrero (37:25) - Family and burnout (42:49) - Rick's family (45:49) - Pivoting the business (51:37) - Axon body cameras (53:46) - Axon's current products (58:08) - Re-educating the cops (01:02:09) - Pushing risk (01:05:44) - Competing with the gun (01:10:16) - Exponential stock plans (01:14:17) - Who Axon is hiring (01:14:46) - What “grit” means to Rick Mentioned in this episode: UnitedHealthcare and Brian Thompson, Harvard University, human-machine interfaces, Star Wars, Timecop, Star Trek, Jack Cover, Project Apollo, Ed Owen; the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, and Firearms; Tom Smith, Rodney King, the Sharper Image, Steve Filmer, Phil Smith, Silicon Valley Bank, Emil Michael, Bob Kagle, Benchmark, Norwest Ventures, Molly Wuthrich, Josh Isner, The Terminator, Ferrari, Richard Branson, Burning Man, Steve Jobs, Brenda Smith, Hadi Partovi, Amazon AWS, Microsoft, DraftOne, Ambience Health, OpenAI, Mark Zuckerberg, Michael Brown, Computer Aided Dispatch, Elon Musk and SpaceX, and Luke Larson.Links:Connect with RickTwitterLinkedInConnect with JoubinTwitterLinkedInEmail: grit@kleinerperkins.com Learn more about Kleiner PerkinsThis episode was edited by Eric Johnson from LightningPod.fm
