    He was hated, maligned, and marginalized. His enemies kicked dirt over his grave. His own people turned on him.  He dared to discipline in a permissive society. He dared to defy the zeitgeist, and to take the battle to the devil's back yard. He fought back against abortion and sexual perversion when everybody knew it would be a losing battle. He spent his wad advocating a highly marginalized homeschool movement, opposing godless public schools, and fighting abortion. He pushed for Christian legal defense organizations in an anti-Christian age. Dr. James Dobson was the man for the day — a quarterback fighting for every inch he could get, when pushed back to his own 5 yard line. He fought for a country through Roe v. Wade, Lawrence v. Texas, and Obergefell. He fought to save a civilization. . . a losing battle. He lost the pro-life plank. He lost the pornography battle. He lost the war on sexual perversion. But the point is. . .he fought with courage the whole way.  Here is our tribute to Dr. James Dobson (1936-2025).

    01:02:09 – Shooter's Demonic Diary The Minneapolis church shooter's writings reveal regret over being trans, self-brainwashing, and violent fantasies. Media figures like Jake Tapper tie themselves in knots over pronouns while ignoring the manifesto's satanic themes. 01:10:15 – Stephen King Defends Trans Shooter King dismisses transgender ideology as a factor, blaming guns instead. Hosts argue the real problem is cultural rot, demonic influence, and a clear pattern of trans-linked shootings disproportionately targeting Christians. 01:16:07 – Psaki Mocks Prayer After Massacre Former White House press secretary Jen Psaki derides “thoughts and prayers” after Christian children are gunned down, sparking backlash. The commentary argues school shootings increased precisely because prayer was removed from schools. 01:27:29 – SSRIs and Mass Killings RFK Jr. calls for a probe into antidepressants. Studies and 7,000+ case reports show SSRIs linked to homicidal ideation, murder-suicides, and violent psychosis, especially among trans-identified youth already under institutional grooming pressures. 01:58:23 – Church Security and Great Replacement Closing segment pivots from the massacre to broader concerns: failures of Catholic school security, migrant violence, and reckless foreign truck drivers in Tennessee. Framed as part of the “great replacement” and systemic government negligence. 02:01:50 – Red Flags vs. Black Labels Commentary slams gun control hypocrisy, arguing the real threat isn't lawful gun owners but SSRI drugs causing homicidal ideation. Instead of “red flag” laws, America needs warning “black labels” on dangerous pharmaceuticals. 02:13:00 – Foreign Trucking Crisis An Indian driver, drunk and barreling the wrong way across Memphis in an 18-wheeler, highlights a growing crisis: poorly vetted foreign truckers with California licenses endangering Americans nationwide. The DOT is accused of negligence. 02:21:17 – Illegal Alien Maserati Crash In Nashville, an illegal Honduran with a revoked status and prior convictions drove a Maserati drunk, killing and injuring Americans. Framed as part of the “Great Replacement,” where foreign criminals are protected while citizens suffer. 02:25:12 – Walmart's H-1B Visa Scam Scandal erupts as Walmart fires 1,200 tech contractors amid allegations of a $30,000-per-day kickback scheme tied to H-1B visas. Critics say corporate elites use foreign labor to gut the American middle class. 02:48:20 – Python Wars & Brain Chips Florida deploys $4,000 “robot rabbits” to lure invasive Burmese pythons destroying wildlife, while China advances brain-computer interface programs for totalitarian control. Both framed as government-backed “solutions” that could spiral into bigger dangers. 03:05:33 – India's War on Christianity India passes radical anti-conversion laws allowing life in prison for sharing the Gospel, framed as “freedom of religion” amendments. Critics say Tulsi Gabbard's ties to Modi's party expose the hypocrisy and danger for Christians worldwide. 03:08:00 – Same-Sex Marriage Reconsidered Discussion of Obergefell resurfaces, with Clarence Thomas signaling it rests on the same shaky legal ground as Roe v. Wade. Marriage redefinition is framed as a state power grab that undermines children's rights to their biological parents. 03:16:38 – GOP Support for Gay Marriage Collapses Republican support for same-sex marriage drops sharply since 2021. Panelists call for conservatives to finally “conserve something,” noting Trump and Melania openly celebrated LGBT policies despite presenting themselves as cultural defenders. 03:21:43 – Law Without Moral Foundation Debate over “substantive due process” shows how courts manufactured rights like abortion and gay marriage. The commentary insists law requires a moral foundation, warning against turning children into state-owned commodities. 03:53:18 – Peter Thiel's Tech Bilderberg Peter Thiel launches “Dialogue,” a secretive DC-based club for tech elites, Treasury officials, and politicians (including Tulsi Gabbard & Ted Cruz). Framed as a “Bilderberg 2.0,” critics say it's a transhumanist push to eliminate AI regulation.

But, no need to fear – we're leaving y'all with some extra brain juice to keep you company while we're offline. We're dropping an ENCORE POD EPISODE of when we collabed with the iconic “Boom! Lawyered” hosts Imani Gandy and Jess Pieklo IN DC and broke down SCOTUS' Medina v. Planned Parenthood South Atlantic arguments back in April. It went a little something like this… ATTENTION BUZZKILLAHSSSSS! WE DID A LIVE THING – in DC! Yep. Your “Feminist Buzzkills” joined forces with the “Boom! Lawyered” pod for an epic live show! After getting word that SCOTUS was hearing a case that could result in eliminating any healthcare provider from Medicaid payments if they provide abortion, we geared up for battle for one super-sized show with the amazing “Boom! Lawyered” hosts Imani Gandy (Rewire Editor-at-Large) and Jess Pieklo (Rewire Senior Vice President, Executive Editor.) We break down what this case means, and fill you in on all the outrageous tricks clown lawmakers across the country are playing trying to destroy access to reproductive care. It was a packed show full of rage and shenanigans and the DC crowd LOVED IT!  This episode unpacks the arguments in Medina v Planned Parenthood South Atlantic, a case that could upend Medicaid beneficiaries ability to enforce their rights under the public benefit program all because conservatives hate abortion. We get into the history of efforts to kick Planned Parenthood out of the Medicaid program, the bad faith arguments made by conservatives to the Court as they try to do so again, and how a bad decision in the case could impact way more than access to abortion. Recorded LIVE at the Black Cat in DC, we gotta give a huge shout out and special thanks to the Black Cat crew for making the space for our loud asses AND for everyone who showed up! Tune in for the legal brilliance, the laughs, the knowledge, and some actions you can take to be the change you wanna see in this world.  Times are heavy, but knowledge is power, y'all.

    欢迎收听雪球出品的财经有深度,雪球,国内领先的集投资交流交易一体的综合财富管理平台,聪明的投资者都在这里。今天分享的内容叫“易中天”的半年报,哪家更强?,来自围棋投研。估计读者们都希望看到寒王的分析,但思来想去还是算了,毕竟短期涨得太好,好像怎么聊都不太合适,不妨就先放一放。最近市场很流行“纪连海”,也就是寒武纪+工业富联+海光信息,但相较而言,我依然更愿意关注“易中天”,即新易盛、中际旭创和天孚通信,核心原因是业绩的可预测性。首先,三家上市公司都发布了半年报,我们可以简单来分析一下。把3家上市公司放到一起看,更直观。从体量上来看,是新易盛和中际旭创更大,天孚通信相对小一些;从增速上来,看是三家都很不错,新易盛更胜一筹,主要是下游客户订单的放量;从现金流来看,现金流都很健康,自由现金流基本都是净利润的一半左右;从盈利能力来看,都很强,毛利率是偏上游的天孚通信更强,净利率是新易盛最优;从净资产收益率ROE来看,半年度数据都很惊人,新易盛38%尤其“逆天”;从净营业周期方面来看,是天孚表现最好,基本上维持2个月多一点;从股东结构来看挺有意思,机构持股是递增、外资比例是递减,说明新易盛更受外资欢迎,天孚更受内资欢迎,中际则是居中。总结为一句话:“易中天”三份答卷都很优秀,其中新易盛增速最猛、中际旭创体量最大、天孚通信盈利能力最强。其次,看看单二季度有没有超预期,以及为什么超预期。虽然都是光模块赛道,但每家龙头都有自己的特色,逐个拆分下:首先是新易盛:预期净利润18-20亿,实际23.7亿。超预期。卖货的路子更广,不光直接卖给Meta和AWS这些大厂,还通过设备商把货卖给XAI和Oracle,甚至帮Mellanox代工,间接把货卖到英伟达,海外市占率不断提升。高级产品卖得更多,一季度主要是卖400G,800G客户只有Meta,记住800G肯定比400G要贵就行,二季度巨头都开始大量买800G,甚至给Mellanox代工的1.6T(等于1600G)也开始交货。再来看中际旭创:预期净利润18-20亿,实际24.1亿,超预期。收入结构是全面开花,400G老产品生命周期延长,800G产品新增AWS以及设备商需求,1.6T新产品加速放量,甚至交付高峰期是在下半年。相对于其他家都是外采硅光芯片,中际是基于自研硅光芯片封装,而自研就能控制成本,因此硅光的放量及良率提升都在加速盈利能力的释放。最后是天孚通信:预期净利润4-5亿,实际5.6亿,超预期。毛利率是环比下滑的,主要是产品结构、泰国工厂效率偏低以及年降等多重因素影响,但费用率收窄后,净利率不降反增,证明规模效应起到了作用。无源器件增长不算高,但在虚拟经济、云计算、人工智能等场景推动下,全球数据中心持续扩容,有源器件增速越来越高。有没有发现,虽然每家光模块龙头都有自己的小故事,但大方向有迹可循,一是全球数据中心的需求越来越多,海外各家互联网厂商都在扩容,行业景气度很高;二是每家都能分到一杯羹,既证明了国内产业链的竞争优势,也意味着越来越能看到规模效应;三是都在努力把产品越做越高级,毕竟越高级就能卖得越贵,毛利率能提升不少,就有净利润的提升空间。至少从上半年而言,光模块的全球景气度非常高,龙头企业的财报都很优秀且超预期,就看下半年的高价值量产品出货以及各家的降本控费能力了。接着,不妨再来看看“易中天”的市场表现。短期维度,今天市场是大幅回落,3家龙头还能上涨不容易,说明行业热度及业绩超预期带来了超额收益;中期维度,无论是月度、年度还是今年4月份以来的底部反弹,都是和半年度净利润增速成正比,增速最高的新易盛,得到了最大的涨幅;长期维度,如果是从2021年初算起,5年不到的时间,最少的中际旭创有7倍收益率,而新易盛则是13倍,非常惊人。因此,就像昨晚聊到的,所谓题材概念股,如果能够满足“锦上添花”就会更有说服力,景气度向上+业绩超预期=大幅上涨,同时业绩弹性越大就增速越高。至于估值,这3家企业今年PE估值都是40-50倍,明年市场一致预期下是30-40倍,是高还是低,就要留给球友们自己判断了。最后,今天市场波动挺大,上午和下午就宛如两幅面孔,能给到的就是两个建议:一是要做好分散投资和分批买入,宁愿少赚一些,也不要承担太大的风险;二是牛市并没有到顶部,很多核心资产都没有超过2021年高点。

    Conservative Review with Daniel Horowitz
    Now Is the Time to Reverse 'Gay Marriage' | 8/28/25

    Conservative Review with Daniel Horowitz

    Play Episode Listen Later Aug 28, 2025 64:19


    The Minnesota trans-identifying shooter is part of a dangerous trend of psychosis among those pumped with chemical castration drugs. Conservatives must use this opportunity to ban all forms of castration, not just for children but for adults as well. At the same time, we must remember that transgenderism flows directly from Obergefell and the false concept of a same-sex marriage. We're joined by Mat Staver of Liberty Counsel, who believes his client, Kim Davis, is on the cusp of forcing the Supreme Court to overturn Obergefell. We discuss the legal case for overturning the decision and why anyone who voted for the Dobbs opinion is bound to reverse this decision because Obergefell is even more legally indefensible than Roe v. Wade. We also discuss the need to build political momentum in the states and expose the travesty of same-sex adoptions so that we don't make the same mistakes we did with Dobbs — winning the legal fight while losing the political fight in the states.  Learn more about your ad choices.

    Patrick confronts the aftermath of the Minneapolis church shooting, threading callers' raw stories and emails through his search for why violence has surged, all while scrutinizing cultural shifts, violent media, fractured families, and technology’s grip. He refuses to look away from difficult questions about parenting, faith, and the uncomfortable links between media exposure and aggression. Across perspectives spanning heartbreak, frustration, and weary hope, Patrick lets the messiness unfold while weighing the spiritual and practical challenges pressing on America’s conscience. Michael (email) - This behavior needs to be rooted out and destroyed. (01:02) Patrick shares more emails about gun control John - I am 76-years-old and Vietnam War Veteran. This talk about a taking guns away is ridiculous. I am tired of people trying to take rights away from us. (05:25) Amelia - We don't need coddling like the shooters’ mom did. (14:49) Dana - America has so much violence. It is like a spirit of violence in the air. I think that just about everyone has a gun. Could they make guns that could just injure and not kill? (19:21) Michelle - There is a gun shop/pawnshop near here. We have laws for guns, but they don't enforce them because they are afraid of offending people who are mentally ill. (28:57) Laura - What has changed? You are not even talking about social media and how the rate of mental health problems has gone up since 2020. (31:28) Rita - There was mass violence during the Vietnam War. Remember the Kent State shooting and also the bombings. I don't think that the trans thing has much to do with Catholic students being murdered. (33:52) Mary (email) - How do we influence and coexist with other catholic parents in a conservative catholic school environment where so many of the parents in this community have rolled over and given their kids these smart phones? (37:05) Cindy - We need to remember that we are one in the body of Christ. We have to always be prepared with our spiritual weapons like the Rosary. (40:13) Richard - I teach a serial killer and mass murder class. When it comes to violent video games, numerous studies have been done linking these games to acts of aggression. (42:26) Maureen - Our politics have become extremely violent. People need to look at the politicians who have called on violence towards others. (46:37) Anna - You are talking about the underlying issues. I think these things are promoted and allowed. Look at Epstein, mafia, and cartels. It's all big money. (48:47) Mike - I feel strongly that Roe v. Wade started all of this because as a society we have become numb to death. (49:49)

    An Honest Account of Abortion - "Since Before Roe v. Wade: An Abortion Provider's Memoir" by Steven H. Eisinger, MD, FACOGSince Before Roe v. Wade was written with clarity, humor, and passion. This memoir presents an accurate picture of abortion to the public, including the medical and psychological realities for patients and providers, and fearlessly addresses the complex issues surrounding abortion. Numerous patient stories are presented to illustrate the many facets of abortion. Other aspects of pregnancy and childbirth, contraception, and gynecologic conditions and how they relate to abortion are discussed as well. These accounts explain technical issues to the public with the aid of vivid illustrations. Dr. Eisinger envisions his work becoming a useful source of information. In our current overheated national discussion about abortion, we need an accurate, compassionate, honest account of abortion-this is it!Steven H. Eisinger, MD, FACOG attended college at the University of Chicago, medical school at the University of Michigan, and residency in Ob Gyn at the University of Wisconsin. He then served as a Major in the Army for two years, delivering babies and doing abortions! Then, Dr. Eisinger accepted a position as an Assistant Professor at the University of Rochester (NY) Medical School in 1977, teaching Ob Gyn to resident physicians.Dr. Eisinger remained in Rochester for his entire career teaching, practicing, and conducting research, eventually retiring as Professor Emeritus in 2022. Throughout his career, Dr. Eisinger has dedicated himself to three main pursuits: providing obstetric and gynecologic care for underserved women, educating young doctors, and championing reproductive freedom, including abortion. Dr. Eisinger has performed abortions all his professional life, beginning in 1971, Since Before Roe v. Wade.Dr. Eisinger spoke at the 2024 NOW rally in Rochester, NY, to advocate for the continued availability of mifepristone, the abortion pill. He was an author of and was responsible for designing safety protocols for a nationwide scientific study on mifepristone. The study persuaded the FDA to approve mifepristone in 2000. Dr. Eisinger has since prescribed mifepristone for thousands of women. The abortion pill is safe and effective-he should know!He is a lifetime Fellow of the American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists (FACOG). His hobbies include hiking, trail maintenance, golf, mountain climbing, and dealing in rare coins. Married with two adult children, he and his wife Sue celebrated their fifty-fifth anniversary in 2024. This book is dedicated to Sue.AMAZONwww.KingPagesPress.com  https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=61578414656989http://www.bluefunkbroadcasting.com/root/twia/82825kpp1.mp3

    In June of 2015, the Supreme Court made history by ruling that Jim Obergefell and other same-sex couples deserve the right to have their marriages legally recognized — not just in a few states, but across the country. It's strange to think that only happened ten years ago. Gay couples across the country have only had the right to marry the person they love since the year of Jurassic World and the first run of Hamilton and that dress on the internet that nobody could agree was blue and black or white and gold. And it was only eleven years before that, in 2004, that the very first legal gay wedding was held anywhere in the country.As we saw with Roe v Wade, though, Supreme Court cases can be overturned and rights can be taken away. Right now, there's real concern that the Supreme Court will re-examine Obergefell in the next year. In 2022, after Roe v Wade was struck down, Justice Clarence Thomas wrote that the Court should turn their attention to other cases of equal rights… like Obergefell. And now, he might get his chance. Kentucky country clerk Kim Davis filed an official petition this month asking the Supreme Court to re-examine the case.Yes, that Kim Davis. The one who went to jail for 5 days in 2015 for refusing to sign marriage licenses for gay couples. Doesn't she have better things to do than work this hard to take away other people's rights?We have more than a decade of studies now that prove how much of a difference the right to marry has made for gay couples across the country. Married same-sex couples report better life satisfaction, better physical health, and higher rates of homeownership than unmarried same-sex couples. Once married, they can get on each other's health insurance, file taxes jointly, and act as legal next of kin in cases of life or death.By contrast, not a single study has been able to prove any negative effects. Divorce rates across the board have fallen for all types of married couples and children of same-sex couples have the same educational and health outcomes as those in a household with a mother and father.The majority of Americans believe in marriage equality and the separation of church and state. But for hundreds of thousands of gay couples across the country, the right to get married isn't abstract — it affects their daily lives, their finances, their health, and their family.For a transcript of this episode, please email comms@redwine.blue.

However, for the first time in over five years, Kim Davis (an opponent of same-sex marriage) petitioned for a writ of certiorari to overturn Obergefell. Is there a possibility the court will revisit its finding? How does this decision compare to other recently overturned decisions like Roe v Wade?

    This Day in Legal History: Nineteenth Amendment CertifiedOn this day in legal history, August 26, 1920, the Nineteenth Amendment to the U.S. Constitution was formally certified by Secretary of State Bainbridge Colby, granting women the right to vote nationwide. The certification marked the culmination of a nearly century-long struggle led by suffragists like Susan B. Anthony, Elizabeth Cady Stanton, and later Alice Paul and Ida B. Wells, who fought for political inclusion through protests, civil disobedience, and persistent lobbying. The amendment's ratification by Tennessee—by a single vote—on August 18, 1920, provided the necessary 36th state approval to satisfy constitutional requirements.The Nineteenth Amendment's language is deceptively simple: “The right of citizens of the United States to vote shall not be denied or abridged... on account of sex.” But its legal impact was profound, constitutionally guaranteeing the franchise to half the population that had long been excluded. The certification did not end all voting discrimination—many women of color, particularly Black and Native American women, continued to face racist barriers to the ballot—but it was a foundational legal step toward gender equality in civic life.August 26 is now recognized as Women's Equality Day, established by Congress in 1971, to honor the legal and political significance of the Nineteenth Amendment and to commemorate the broader fight for women's rights. The legal principle enshrined in the amendment echoes in later equality jurisprudence, forming part of the constitutional backdrop to cases involving gender discrimination under the Equal Protection Clause.The Nineteenth Amendment also represented a rare moment when a constitutional change directly expanded democratic participation, in contrast to more procedural or structural amendments. It altered not just who could vote, but how lawmakers and courts would later consider the role of gender in public policy and civil rights. The amendment continues to serve as a legal and symbolic foundation for subsequent laws and cases advancing gender equity, including Title IX and the push for the Equal Rights Amendment.On August 26, the legal history of suffrage becomes not only a story of amendment certification, but of constitutional transformation through organized legal and political struggle.U.S. Senator Ron Wyden has called on Chief Justice John Roberts to initiate an independent investigation into the federal judiciary's cybersecurity practices, following a significant breach of the court system's electronic case management system. In a letter, Wyden urged Roberts to involve the National Academy of Sciences in reviewing both the recent and previous hacks—highlighting that foreign actors, possibly including Russia, exploited the same vulnerabilities in both incidents.Wyden criticized the system as outdated, insecure, and costly, noting this was the second major breach since 2020. He emphasized that sensitive data, including information on confidential informants and sealed case files, may have been compromised. The judiciary's handling of cybersecurity, Wyden argued, has repeatedly failed to meet the standards expected of institutions entrusted with highly sensitive information.The senator pointed out that despite years of warnings and expert recommendations, the judiciary has lagged in updating its technology. U.S. Circuit Judge Michael Scudder recently admitted in testimony that the case management system is obsolete and needs replacement. Wyden also noted that while executive branch agencies have been using multi-factor authentication since 2015, the judiciary will not implement it until the end of 2025.Wyden has long advocated for transparency and modernization in the court system, including efforts to make the PACER database free. His latest request underscores growing bipartisan concern over national security implications tied to the federal courts' digital infrastructure.US senator calls for independent review of federal judiciary cybersecurity | ReutersA federal judge has ruled that the Trump administration can move forward with a provision in its recent spending bill that bars Medicaid funding from going to abortion providers in Maine. The ruling, by U.S. District Judge Lance Walker—a Trump appointee—rejected a request by Maine Family Planning to block the provision, part of the One Big Beautiful Bill Act passed by Congress in July. The organization argued the law unfairly targeted them and violated their constitutional rights, but the judge declined to intervene, emphasizing the law was a product of the democratic process.Walker acknowledged that the policy might be unwise but stressed it is not the judiciary's role to override legislative choices based on policy disagreements. Maine Family Planning, the state's largest reproductive healthcare provider, warned that the ruling could force clinic closures and reductions in care, impacting around 8,000 patients annually.The case is one of two major legal challenges to the law. A separate federal judge in Boston has temporarily blocked the same provision as it applies to Planned Parenthood nationwide, and that ruling is under appeal. The Maine case focused on how the law would impact two of the state's main abortion providers and argued it violated equal protection rights under the Fifth Amendment by singling them out.Judge Walker, however, found that Congress has the authority to direct federal funds in ways consistent with its policy goals, including discouraging abortion—a procedure that is no longer protected as a constitutional right following the Supreme Court's 2022 ruling overturning Roe v. Wade.Trump administration can withhold Medicaid funding from Maine abortion providers, judge rules | ReutersPresident Donald Trump has moved to fire Federal Reserve Governor Lisa Cook, alleging she made false statements on mortgage applications—an accusation she denies. The unprecedented move, announced via Truth Social, sent financial markets into a brief stir, with long-term Treasury yields rising and the dollar dipping, reflecting concerns over the Fed's independence. Cook, appointed by President Biden and confirmed in 2022, has vowed not to resign and plans legal action, arguing that Trump lacks authority to remove her without proper cause.Trump claims Cook's conduct shows “gross negligence” and undermines trust in the Fed. However, under the Federal Reserve Act, governors can only be removed “for cause,” a standard historically interpreted to mean inefficiency, neglect of duty, or misconduct while in office. Cook's alleged mortgage misstatements predate her time at the Fed, making the legal grounds for removal murky.This attempt follows months of Trump's public attacks on the Fed for keeping interest rates high. If successful, it would allow him to reshape the board with dovish policymakers more favorable to rate cuts. Critics, including Senator Elizabeth Warren and legal scholars, denounced the move as a political power grab and a threat to central bank independence.The Department of Justice may investigate Cook following a criminal referral, but no charges have been filed. Legal experts suggest the case could test the Supreme Court's recent statements on limits to presidential power over independent agencies. Meanwhile, Cook has reiterated her commitment to her role and refuses to step down amid what she calls political bullying.Trump Moves to Fire Fed's Cook, Setting Up Historic Legal FightAnd in my column this week, a story out of Utah. A small town in Utah, Wellington, is facing public backlash after proposing a 225% property tax hike—a dramatic response to years of avoiding smaller, routine tax increases. This financial crisis wasn't caused by a single year of overspending but rather by elected officials deferring necessary tax adjustments since 2017, despite rising costs for services and infrastructure. While avoiding tax hikes may have seemed politically savvy, it left the town with a nearly $400,000 budget shortfall that now demands a painful correction.The Wellington situation illustrates a broader problem: local governments often delay modest increases to avoid political consequences, only to face greater fiscal challenges later. Holding tax rates flat may feel like good governance, but it allows infrastructure to decay and expenses to balloon. By the time officials act, the required adjustment feels extreme to residents who weren't prepared for it.The solution, according to my piece, lies in normalizing small, predictable tax increases. This would help cities keep pace with inflation and infrastructure needs, without shocking taxpayers. One of my proposed reforms is land value taxation, which taxes land rather than improvements on it—encouraging development without penalizing property upgrades and offering greater economic stability.To depoliticize the process, cities could establish independent, bipartisan bodies to manage long-term tax planning. This shift from reactive crisis management to proactive fiscal planning could help avoid sudden, disruptive tax spikes like Wellington's. The underlying message: the longer tax adjustments are postponed, the more painful and politically damaging they become.Utah Town's 225% Property Tax Spike Is Lesson on Fiscal Realism This is a public episode.

    Randall Balmer: Myth Busting Evangelical Activism & Its Origins

    What if everything you thought you knew about why evangelical Christians became politically active was completely wrong? Today I sit down with one of America's greatest historians of religion, Randall Balmer, to do some serious myth-busting. We dive deep into what Balmer calls "the abortion myth" - the widely believed but false story that evangelicals mobilized politically in the 1970s over Roe v. Wade. The real origin story? It's much more uncomfortable - it was actually about defending racial segregation in Christian schools when the IRS threatened their tax-exempt status. Balmer takes us through this hidden history he discovered firsthand at a 1990 gathering of religious right leaders, where architect Paul Weyrich admitted abortion "had nothing to do with" their political mobilization. We trace how a religious community that once championed prison reform, women's rights, and abolition transformed into today's Christian nationalist movement, and explore what this means for the future of American religion. From Jimmy Carter to Donald Trump, from the Jesus movement to Project 2025, this conversation reveals how evangelicalism lost its prophetic voice and became, in Balmer's words, dangerously "worldly." It's a sobering but essential look at how we got here - and whether there's any hope for course correction. Randall Balmer is one of America's leading historians of religion and a prominent scholar of evangelicalism. A professor at Dartmouth College, Balmer grew up in the evangelical subculture as the son of a preacher before earning his PhD. Balmer is the author of numerous influential books, including Bad Faith: Race and the Rise of the Religious Right, God in the White House, and America's Best Idea: The Separation of Church and State.  UPCOMING ONLINE CLASS - ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠The God of Justice: Where Ancient Wisdom Meets Contemporary Longing⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ This transformative online class brings together distinguished scholars from biblical studies, theology, history, and faith leadership to offer exactly what our moment demands: the rich, textured wisdom of multiple academic disciplines speaking into our contemporary quest for justice.

    In this episode of Passing Judgment, Jessica breaks down three major legal developments: the Supreme Court allowing Mississippi's age verification law for social media to take effect while litigation continues, a renewed but unlikely push to overturn the Court's marriage equality decision in Obergefell, and a federal court ruling enabling potential mass firings at the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau. Jessica explains what these cases mean for our rights and daily lives, highlighting the ongoing balance between state power, individual liberties, and consumer protection.Here are three key takeaways you don't want to miss:Supreme Court and Mississippi's Social Media Age Verification Law: The episode opens with a discussion of the Supreme Court's decision to allow Mississippi's new law requiring age verification for children on social media to take effect while legal battles continue. The law mandates social media companies verify users' ages and get parental consent for kids under 18. Supporters claim it protects children from online harms, while critics argue it's vague, intrusive, and may violate the First Amendment.Renewed Push to Overturn Marriage Equality (Obergefell v. Hodges): There's renewed legal activity aimed at overturning the Supreme Court's 2015 decision in Obergefell v. Hodges, which legalized same-sex marriage nationwide. The case gained attention due to Kim Davis, a former Kentucky clerk who refused to issue marriage licenses to same-sex couples, now asking the Supreme Court to revisit the ruling.Trump Administration and the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau (CFPB): The final major story discusses a recent court decision paving the way for the Trump administration to pursue mass firings at the CFPB—a federal agency created after the 2008 financial crisis to protect consumers.

    Bob Wilson an adoptee born in the early 1970s at the end of the Baby Scoop Era. During his childhood and young adulthood, he thought little about the fact that he was adopted. But after reading Ann Fessler's groundbreaking book The Girls Who Went Away (2007) about adoption in mid-twentieth century America, he began the legal process of unsealing his adoption records and attempting to find his birthmother. He located and contacted his birthmother nearly two decades ago and has had a close relationship with her since then. In 2020, GeoHumanities published his essay “Relinquished,” a narrative of his birthmother's fraught journey to surrender him for adoption and the legacy of that decision. “Relinquished” is a story of a birthmother and adoptee, but it also illuminates the history of adoption, abortion, and unplanned pregnancies in the decades before Roe v. Wade. He is currently associate professor of geography and the environment in the Maxwell School of Citizenship and Public Affairs at Syracuse University, where he teaches courses in historical geography, environmental history, and the environmental humanities.

    Is abortion really over now that Roe v. Wade is gone—or has the fight just shifted behind closed doors? That's the big question we tackle in today's episode of The Brian Nichols Show. If you think abortion ended with the Supreme Court's Dobbs decision, think again. The reality may shock you. Studio Sponsor: Cardio Miracle - "Unlock the secret to a healthier heart, increased energy levels, and transform your cardiovascular fitness like never before.": CardioMiracle.com/TBNS For years, the pro-life movement pushed for Roe to be overturned. Now that it has, abortion numbers haven't dropped—they've actually climbed. Mail-order abortion pills, state loopholes, and travel networks have made it easier than ever for abortion to continue in “pro-life” states. Bradley Pierce from the Foundation to Abolish Abortion joins me to break down the facts and expose the truth the media won't cover. We cut through the flimsy narratives—“clump of cells,” “parasite,” “women dying in the streets”—and replace them with clarity. This episode shows how equal protection under the law has been intentionally avoided and why real change requires more than half-measures. Bradley explains why the term abolition—not regulation—gets to the heart of the fight. But this isn't just about policy. It's about messaging, persuasion, and connecting with people emotionally. We talk about why words matter—like using “murder” or “abolition”—and how emotional truth can break through the noise, plant seeds of doubt in pro-abortion arguments, and change hearts and minds. If you've ever wondered what's really happening after Roe, how abortion still thrives in “red” states, and what the pro-life movement must do differently, you cannot afford to miss this conversation.

    “This is not about rejection—it's about sacrifice.” – Edward Di Gangi Adopted at birth and raised as an only child, Edward Di Gangi never sought the details of his adoption—until a quiet moment in a New Jersey cemetery at age 69 set him on a journey of discovery. That path led to his acclaimed memoir The Gift Best Given, and now to his latest work, Gliding Through Goodbye. In this deeply empathetic conversation, Ed shares how he stepped into his birth mother's shoes to imagine her emotional world, drawing on interviews with women who placed children for adoption during the pre-Roe “baby scoop” era. The result is a moving tribute to courage, sacrifice, and the healing power of telling the truth. Key Takeaways: A moment that changed everything: How a quiet reflection at his adoptive family's gravesite inspired Ed to finally uncover the truth about his origins. The remarkable life behind the secret: Discovering that his birth mother was a celebrated ice skater touring the world in the 1940s and 1950s, and how that shaped the story. The emotional weight of silence: First-hand accounts from women of the “baby scoop” era reveal the lasting shame, secrecy, and grief of placing a child for adoption. Empathy as a writing tool: How Ed immersed himself in interviews and his mother's sparse notes to authentically recreate her diary and inner world. The craft challenge of authenticity: Why writing in his birth mother's imagined voice demanded restraint, historical accuracy, and deep emotional honesty. Reframing the adoption narrative: Moving away from a perception of rejection toward understanding adoption as an act of profound sacrifice. The healing power of storytelling: How sharing personal histories—no matter how painful—can lift the burden of secrecy and build compassion between adoptees, birth parents, and the public.

    In this episode, Cory asks a powerful question every real estate investor should consider: Should I sell my rental? It's easy to assume that if a property is cash-flowing, it's worth keeping. But when you dig deeper, the numbers often tell a different story. Cory breaks down the difference between Return on Investment (ROI) and Return on Equity (ROE), and why ROE becomes more important as your property appreciates. You'll learn how mortgage paydown, rising expenses, and hidden opportunity costs affect your real return, and what to do about it. Plus, discover four key questions to ask before deciding to sell, including how tax exemptions, cap rates, and your long-term strategy factor into the equation.   Whether you're actively managing rentals or simply wondering if your equity could work harder elsewhere, this episode will help you make informed, purpose-driven financial decisions rooted in today's reality, not yesterday's assumptions.   -- This Material is Intended for General Public Use.

    Since the Supreme Court's landmark June 2022 decision in Dobbs v. Jackson Women's Health Organization overturned Roe v. Wade and federal abortion protections, a wave of state legislatures have rushed to impose bans and restrictions. According to the Guttmacher Institute, 41 states now have abortion bans in effect, including 12 with total bans. “We hear about the endless, supposedly unintentional consequences of abortion bans like rising maternal mortality, child rape victims forced to travel across state lines, increased risk of criminalization, pregnant victims coerced by their abusers, all of that,” says journalist Kylie Cheung, author of “Coercion: Surviving and Resisting Abortion Bans.” “But I very much argue that these aren't unintended consequences.” This week on The Intercept Briefing, Cheung joins host Jessica Washington to trace the direct line from the Dobbs decision to state-sanctioned gender-based violence and control. “This is what abortion bans function to do, which is to police and control pregnant people, to feed cycles of abuse, to be this tool in the toolbox of abusers. To enact racial violence and economic subjugation and essentially lower women and pregnant people and people who can become pregnant to this lowered class in our society,” says Cheung. “And that is not unintentional at all.Listen to the full conversation of The Intercept Briefing on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, or wherever you listen.You can support our work at theintercept.com/join.
