In this episode of the Fit Father Project Podcast, I'm kicking off a brand-new series I'm calling "Blind Spots" — parts of your health that genuinely matter but rarely get enough attention. First up: your feet. I open with the true story of Abebe Bikila, the Ethiopian marathoner who won Olympic gold in Rome in 1960 running barefoot over cobblestones after his shoes didn't fit — then won again four years later in Tokyo, becoming the first man to win back-to-back Olympic marathons. That story sets up everything we cover: the anatomy of your feet (26 bones, 30+ joints, and their own "intrinsic" core muscles), the windlass mechanism that turns your foot from a shock absorber into a rigid lever for propulsion, and why your soles are one of your main sensory organs feeding data straight to your brain. I walk through the CDC fall statistics for adults over 65, the research linking weak toes and poor balance to increased mortality risk, and why 40+ years in cushioned, padded shoes has quietly weakened the muscles you need most as you age. Then I give you four simple at-home tests you can do right now — the 10-second one-leg stand, toe yoga, the paper grip test, and big toe extension — plus daily practices to rebuild foot strength, better footwear guidance, and the "tennis ball effect" that instantly improves your hamstring flexibility.Rate & Review — If this episode gave you something new to think about, please take a moment to rate and review the Fit Father Project Podcast. Your review helps more busy dads discover practical, science-backed health conversations that can genuinely change their lives.Join the Fit Father Project Community — If you're ready to build real strength and longevity — starting from the ground up — with support, accountability, and a brotherhood of men committed to thriving after 40, come join us. We're here to help you build real, lasting health together.Key TakeawaysFoot strength directly predicts fall risk. A 2006 Journal of Gerontology study of 176 older adults (avg. age 80) found 41% fell within a year — and fallers had weaker toe muscles, more bunions, less sole sensation, stiffer ankles, and more foot pain than non-fallers.Falls are a leading killer after 65. Per the CDC, falls are the #1 cause of injury-related death in adults 65+, with more than 1 in 4 older adults falling each year and fall deaths up 21% from 2018–2024.Balance predicts mortality. In a study of 1,700 adults followed for 7 years, those who couldn't stand on one leg for 10 seconds had a 17.5% death rate over the follow-up period vs. 4.5% for those who passed.Your feet have their own "core." The 26 bones and 30+ joints in each foot are stabilized by intrinsic muscles — and the windlass mechanism (your big toe bending back as you walk) turns your foot into a rigid lever for propulsion.Cushioned shoes dull your brain's data. A 2019 Nature study found barefoot walkers built thick calluses without losing sensitivity, while cushioned shoes reduce the sensory signal your brain needs for balance and postural control.Minimalist shoes build real strength fast. In a 2019 study, walking in minimalist shoes (building to 7,000 steps/day) was as effective as a dedicated foot-strengthening program — with muscle growth showing up by week four.It's never too late to start. In a 2026 study of adults over 65 at risk of falling, those wearing minimal footwear stayed fall-free 77% of the time over a year, compared to 52% in the control group.Rolling your feet instantly improves flexibility. The "tennis ball effect" — rolling a tennis or lacrosse ball under each foot for 30–60 seconds — measurably increases hamstring stretch tolerance by relaxing tension up the chain.Plantar fascia connects to your Achilles tendon, and that connection thins as you age — which is part of why younger feet feel "springier" and more athletic than older ones.Four simple self-tests reveal your foot health: the 10-second one-leg stand (bonus: eyes closed), toe yoga (lifting your big toe independently), the paper/business-card grip test, and big toe extension.Want To Change Your Life?

Standing in the door of the plane, with a fierce wind whipping his whole body, Curtis wondered why he'd volunteered for the paratroopers. It was glamorous, they said.It'll make a man out of you, they said.Shutting his eyes, Curtis prayed the most honest prayer of his life. He stretched out his hands and took a step...Lamentations 3:25–26 says, “The Lord is good to those whose hope is in him, to the one who seeks him; it is good to wait quietly for the salvation of the Lord.”Rolling on the ground wrapped in silk, Curtis realized he had followed his instructions to the letter. With his landing, he graded out the highest of anyone in his company.That story is exactly how we are to interact with our Savior. When we let go, confident that Jesus has us, we have no more pressure on us. He is carrying us to safety.And we land in the right place every time.Let's pray.Lord, we have so much gratitude for the countless ways you lead us through life. We love you. Thank you for every safe landing, and for holding us safe in the palm of your hand. In Jesus' name, amen. Change your shirt, and you can change the world!

Dave and Ashley are back with the second half of their rapid-fire Hot Topics round, tackling more of your biggest questions and the culture's most talked-about marriage debates. They cover why smart, capable people suddenly act helpless about finding a babysitter, why couples should choose to have kids (and why fur babies don't count), why forcing your spouse into a sexless marriage is a form of infidelity, why rolling your eyes at your spouse is one of the most accurate predictors of divorce, why empty nesters are divorcing at higher rates, why our culture spends so much time and money on grooming, and whether permanent birth control like vasectomies is biblical.

Peter is deep into training for the Athens Marathon, complete with brutal hills, aching joints, and some surprisingly fast downhill running. Adam and Peter then shift gears into tech and trading—debating Mac upgrades, complaining about Trader Workstation, experimenting with Python automation, and digging into what really happens when you “roll” an options trade. Then things get nerdier. Peter introduces Adam to Monster of the Week, Dungeon World, and the idea of turning an RPG session into something straight out of The X-Files. Along the way there are defective AirPods, questionable running belts, outdated podcast websites, affiliate-link riches, and a phone number at the bottom of the website that longtime music fans might recognize.

Suggest an interview for Cheryl Lee or let us know who your favorite interviewee is so farJoin Cheryl Lee - That Radio Chick on STILL ROCKIN' IT for news, reviews, music and interviews with some of our favourite Australian musiciansThe older I get, the more I want artists to tell me how the work really gets made, not just how it gets marketed. That's why this chat with Andrew Farriss hit so hard. You might know him from INXS, but he's here as a songwriter first, walking us through his solo album The Prospector and the singles getting attention now, including Rolling Home and Honesty. We talk about what happens when you put introspection on the record, and why “searching” is more than a theme, it's the engine behind the songs.Andrew takes us back to the early spark: seeing The Beatles up close in 1964, then slowly building toward a band life through writing, jamming, and taking the unglamorous gigs that teach you how to perform. From there, we pivot into the modern music industry: streaming, corporate layers, and the way big tech can sit between human artists and the audience. Andrew makes a strong case for why Nashville works as a talent pipeline, and why Australia needs better structures, stronger local radio support, and a serious national commitment to Australian music.We also dig into specific tracks on The Prospector, including the anti-war edge of I've Got Eyes On It, plus the joy and challenge of collaboration with writers like Jess Chalker, Ciaran Gribbon, and country music figure Lawrie Minson. And yes, we even touch on farm life, cattle, grains, and the need for rain, because that's part of who he is now. If you care about songwriting, country music in Australia, and what it takes to build a lasting career after the headlines fade, you'll get a lot out of this one. Subscribe, share this with a music friend, and leave a review with your favorite moment from the conversation.What is Andrew Farriss up to at the moment?

Key Takeaways: Build the Right Team: Starting a finance company requires experienced professionals, such as an attorney, finance manager, CPA, and banking expert. The right team can help you avoid costly mistakes. Use the Right Technology: Specialized financial software can help track loans, payments, and business performance. But the data is only useful if you understand how to read it and use it to make decisions. Review Your Numbers Regularly: A finance company should generate real value and profit, not just create more paperwork. Reviewing financial reports regularly helps you see what is working and what needs to change. Measure Real Growth: Success should be measured by more than the number of customers. Look at client growth, stronger operations, healthy cash flow, and improvements in the main business. Plan for Taxes and the Future: Tax planning should happen before problems arise. Working with a CPA and qualified wealth advisor can help you prepare for future taxes, investments, and financial decisions.

How to Trade Stocks and Options Podcast by 10minutestocktrader.com
The market is up big today… but does that actually mean the bull market is back? SPY and QQQ are both pushing higher, yet this market has spent weeks bouncing back and forth inside the same range. One green candle can create a massive amount of FOMO, but when you zoom out, price is still sitting near levels we saw only days ago.And that's the problem with a “kangaroo” or pinball market. It jumps up, falls down, jumps up again, and makes traders feel like they're constantly missing something. These are some of the hardest conditions to trade because there isn't a clean trend to sit in. Instead, traders get tempted into chasing every short-term move.The trend template is technically bullish. The 10 EMA is above the 20 EMA and price is above the 50 EMA. But market breadth tells a very different story. Every single sector still has bearish breadth, the number of stocks in uptrends has been falling, downtrends have been increasing, and only about 18% of the market currently has buy signals.That's why one of the biggest lessons in this episode is simple: when there's nothing to trade, sitting in cash is still a position. Trying to catch every little move can drain an account before the real opportunity ever arrives. Energy and materials are the only sectors showing positive weekly and monthly performance, and even those come with serious problems. Materials continues to see increasing sell signals, while energy carries significant geopolitical catalyst risk.Instead of forcing trades, we're using this period to build better trading plans. SPY and QQQ are beginning to develop into different strategies, with the focus shifting beyond pure expectancy toward something just as important: whether a trader can actually stick with the plan.That leads into the “Emotional Comfort Score” or sleep-at-night score. We're looking for strategies that combine strong expectancy with bigger winners, smaller losers, higher win rates, better trade frequency, and reduced drawdowns. The goal isn't necessarily to capture every last dollar of upside. Sometimes giving up some upside in exchange for dramatically smaller downside can create a plan that's easier to execute consistently.Capital efficiency is another major part of the research. Deep-in-the-money SPY options around 75 delta may allow a relatively small percentage of the account to replicate exposure that would otherwise require a much larger position in leveraged ETFs. Rolling options could also allow profits to be taken off the table while keeping the underlying trade alive.✅ SPY, QQQ, and the current “kangaroo market”✅ Market breadth, trend templates, and why one green day isn't enough✅ Sitting in cash and avoiding FOMO-driven trades✅ Expectancy, win rate, drawdowns, and the Emotional Comfort Score✅ Deep ITM options, capital efficiency, rolling, and new trading plansIf you've ever watched the market rip higher for one day and felt like you HAD to jump back in… this one is worth watching. A green candle doesn't automatically mean conditions are good.

We're hanging out with the Ghost Brothers one more time, and this week the dice have sent us to the historic Fitzpatrick Hotel in Washington, Georgia.Built in the late 1800s, the Fitzpatrick comes with exactly the sort of history we like around here: old rooms, strange happenings, a cemetery underneath the building because apparently moving the headstones was good enough, and at least one extremely messy story involving a man, his wife, his mistress, and a New Year's Eve ball.Which, as Megan helpfully points out, was held in the ballroom.Where balls typically are held.The Ghost Brothers check into the hotel for the night and investigate reports of mysterious footsteps, lights turning themselves on, a little girl roaming the halls, and spirits who may still be hanging around more than a century later. Meanwhile, we discuss creepy paintings, Bloody Mary, suspicious EVPs, very tight pants, and the important paranormal-investigation rule: don't do that when you're drunk.There's also a moment when everyone blames producer Steve for something decidedly ghosty, prompting a well-deserved “Damn it, Steve.” Except...it might not actually have been Steve.And after all the investigating, evidence reviewing, and attempts to figure out exactly who is haunting the Fitzpatrick, Amy delivers perhaps the perfect summary of paranormal television:“That was a lot of not really.”We love the Ghost Brothers, though. Even when the evidence is questionable, these guys are ridiculously fun to watch.So grab your cinnemon sticks and join us where The Activity Continues.Content Warning:We didn't find anything we thought might deserve a warning, except that we use colorful language.Chapter Markers27:06 Welcome02:43 Call for Stories05:56 Rolling for Episode08:09 Begin GB Episode43:42 End GB Episode - Wrap upThis episode was recorded on August 20, 2026, and released on September 3, 2026.Disclaimer:The Activity Continues is not affiliated with Warner Bros., Max, Travel Channel, Painless Productions, or any of the shows we talk about.

Clint is away flying to a Disney trip in Hawaii, leaving Cal to fill in as Meg and Dan chat about his kids’ surprise video and later updates of rain, long lines, and tired fighting kids.

Then head to https://www.ovtlyr.com.Learn more about OVTLYR: https://youtu.be/TUCbD5KovlcIf options trading still feels like a bunch of confusing numbers, Greeks, and formulas, this deep dive is going to make things click.We're breaking down the Option Greeks for beginners and showing why understanding them can completely change the way you look at an options chain.Here's what we get into:✅ Delta: how much an option can move when the stock moves $1, plus how delta can help estimate the chance of expiring in the money.✅ Gamma: the “acceleration” of delta and why your option can become more sensitive as the trade moves in your favor.✅ Theta: how time decay eats away at extrinsic value as expiration gets closer.✅ Vega: how implied volatility impacts option prices and why deep in-the-money options can reduce your exposure to volatility.But the real game changer? Rolling winning options to take partial profits, reduce risk, free up capital, and keep the position alive instead of cutting your biggest winners too early.We also break down intrinsic vs. extrinsic value, capital efficiency, position sizing, leverage, and why deep in-the-money options can behave much more like stock.If you want to trade options with more confidence and actually understand what those Greeks are telling you, this one is worth watching.

In this episode, Katie Tonda shares how she is leading a company-wide AI transformation and rebuilding leadership development from the ground up at ECI Software Solutions. Katie is Global Senior Director of Learning and Development at ECI, a private equity backed software company supporting around 2,400 employees globally, and she came there deliberately after building her career at two of the largest employers in the world, Verizon and Walmart. She and Andy talk about why she made that move, what best practices transfer from massive organizations to a lean team of three operating as a center of excellence, and her philosophy of being brief, being brilliant, and being gone.Katie walks through ECI's three-phase AI enablement strategy in detail, from a required baseline covering terminology, prompting, and hallucinations, through software-specific hands-on integration, to department-level work led by internal champions. She explains why her team builds custom AI apps in-house rather than buying off the shelf, including a career development tool that maps an employee's skills, values, and interests against future roles and generates a development plan. The conversation also covers how AI competency is now built into job descriptions and interviews, why L&D has to treat measurement like any other business decision, and her belief that the window to build a future-ready workforce has shrunk from five years to about eighteen months.I hope you enjoy it!

Welcome back to When Words Fail, Music Speaks—the show that explores how melody, rhythm, and creative fire can lift us out of the darkest moments. I'm your host, James Cox, a longtime “handicapped” skater‑turned‑podcaster who knows first‑hand how a good track can pull you through the toughest days.In today's episode we sit down with Brett Ashby—a world‑traveling contemporary artist, performance painter, motivational speaker, and ten‑year cancer survivor. Brett has turned a childhood love of skateboarding into a breathtaking art form: he paints vivid portraits while cruising on a skateboard, often on a half‑pipe, with live musicians providing the soundtrack. From his early days drawing in primary school, to collaging a Barack‑Obama piece for Art Basel Miami, to painting Tony Hawk‑inspired canvases on vert ramps, Brett's journey proves that creativity can be far more than self‑expression—it can be a lifeline.We'll hear how a U2 album became his chemotherapy companion, how he transformed a near‑fatal neck injury into a triumphant return to the board, and why he now mentors emerging artists while rolling, painting, and composing his own songs. Expect stories about:The “Energy” live‑skate portrait series that fuses rock, African drumming, Gregorian chant, and the natural sound of wheels on wood.The surreal surf‑board easel that birthed his “Understanding Life and Death” blue‑whale triptych displayed on Times Square's 32‑story billboard.Brett's favorite music that fuels his flow state, the moments when silence is essential, and the bands that helped him survive cancer.Quick‑fire lightning‑round answers that reveal his coffee‑first mornings, sunset preferences, favorite color (blue), and the dream of painting James from Metallica.If you've ever wondered how music can become a healer, how art can turn pain into purpose, or simply want to be inspired by a man who literally paints while he rolls, this episode is for you. Grab your headphones, turn up the volume, and let Brett's story remind us that when words fall short, the beat always carries us forward.Stay tuned—after the break we dive right into the conversation.
In this episode of Rolling with the USGA Green Section, Adam and Brian dive into two timely articles from the USGA Green Section Record and sit down with the experts behind them. First, Tom Gould joins us to discuss controlling blue-green algae on putting greens. We talk about why it develops, the conditions that encourage it and strategies Superintendents can use to manage it. Then, Zac Nicklaus joins the show to break down his article, "A Superintendent's Guide to Surviving Summer." From heat and humidity to drought, disease pressure, irrigation challenges and everything else summer throws at a golf course, Zac shares some practical insight for getting through the toughest months of the year. Two great articles. Two great conversations. And plenty of information you can take back to the golf course. This is Rolling with the USGA Green Section, presented by Turf Today.

We played the Modern Warfare 4 beta this weekend — including Warzone and the new Zodiac Resurgence map — and it took about fifteen minutes to know it was over. Not "this year is mid" over. Over over. This is the episode where a podcast that ran on Call of Duty for 600+ episodes says out loud that it's done. Raz makes the case that nothing else in an FPS matters if you can't see or hear the enemy, and everything else — weapon levels, perks, pipe climbing, the spawns everyone's arguing about on X — is fixing a leaky bathtub while the house burns down. Jake breaks down why CoD only takes from him now, why the lobbies are nothing but sweat, and the exact point where min-maxing your controller, your router and your ZIP code stopped being worth it. Also in this one: the Zodiac verdict (better than Area 99, roughly Haven's Hollow), the weekend 2 nerf pass, the 60% negative Steam reviews, why Warzone was in the beta at all, and a DMZ 2 prediction we're standing behind. Then a palate cleanser — Star Wars Zero Company, permadeath, and a first playthrough Raz completely ruined — plus a brutal Tarkov week, the Tarkov roadmap, GTA 6's Netflix look, and WARDOGS. Jake wanted it to be good. Raz stopped wanting that years ago.

Today’s Topics: Father Thomas Koller, OCD, joins Terry 1, 2, 3, 4) Gospel – Luke 4:16-30 – Jesus came to Nazareth, where He had grown up, and went according to His custom into the synagogue on the sabbath day. He stood up to read and was handed a scroll of the prophet Isaiah. He unrolled the scroll and found the passage where it was written: The Spirit of the Lord is upon me, because he has anointed me to bring glad tidings to the poor. He has sent me to proclaim liberty to captives and recovery of sight to the blind, to let the oppressed go free, and to proclaim a year acceptable to the Lord. Rolling up the scroll, He handed it back to the attendant and sat down, and the eyes of all in the synagogue looked intently at Him. He said to them, “Today this Scripture passage is fulfilled in your hearing.” And all spoke highly of Him and were amazed at the gracious words that came from His Mouth. They also asked, “Is this not the Son of Joseph?” He said to them, “Surely you will quote me this proverb, ‘Physician, cure yourself,' and say, ‘Do here in your native place the things that we heard were done in Capernaum.'” And He said, “Amen, I say to you, no prophet is accepted in his own native place. Indeed, I tell you, there were many widows in Israel in the days of Elijah when the sky was closed for three and a half years and a severe famine spread over the entire land. It was to none of these that Elijah was sent, but only to a widow in Zarephath in the land of Sidon. Again, there were many lepers in Israel during the time of Elisha the prophet; yet not one of them was cleansed, but only Naaman the Syrian.” When the people in the synagogue heard this, they were all filled with fury. They rose up, drove Him out of the town, and led Him to the brow of the hill on which their town had been built, to hurl Him down headlong. But He passed through the midst of them and went away. Saints in Heaven, pray for us! Bishop Sheen quote of the day

Pastoral Reflections Finding God In Ourselves by Msgr. Don Fischer
Original Postdate: September 2, 2024 === Gospel Luke 4:16-30 Jesus came to Nazareth, where he had grown up, and went according to his custom into the synagogue on the sabbath day. He stood up to read and was handed a scroll of the prophet Isaiah. He unrolled the scroll and found the passage where it was written: The Spirit of the Lord is upon me, because he has anointed me to bring glad tidings to the poor. He has sent me to proclaim liberty to captives and recovery of sight to the blind, to let the oppressed go free, and to proclaim a year acceptable to the Lord. Rolling up the scroll, he handed it back to the attendant and sat down, and the eyes of all in the synagogue looked intently at him. He said to them, “Today this Scripture passage is fulfilled in your hearing.” And all spoke highly of him and were amazed at the gracious words that came from his mouth. They also asked, “Is this not the son of Joseph?” He said to them, “Surely you will quote me this proverb, ‘Physician, cure yourself,' and say, ‘Do here in your native place the things that we heard were done in Capernaum.'” And he said, “Amen, I say to you, no prophet is accepted in his own native place. Indeed, I tell you, there were many widows in Israel in the days of Elijah when the sky was closed for three and a half years and a severe famine spread over the entire land. It was to none of these that Elijah was sent, but only to a widow in Zarephath in the land of Sidon. Again, there were many lepers in Israel during the time of Elisha the prophet; yet not one of them was cleansed, but only Naaman the Syrian.” When the people in the synagogue heard this, they were all filled with fury. They rose up, drove him out of the town, and led him to the brow of the hill on which their town had been built, to hurl him down headlong. But he passed through the midst of them and went away. Reflection One of the most fascinating things about Jesus as a messiah, someone who came to change the entire world and free us from an excessive power of evil over us. He was so ordinary. He was of the house of David, but basically the fundamental thing was he was seen as an ordinary guy, from a little not so great town, that had a shady past because many thought maybe he was illegitimate. But you look at that and he is the voice of God. This ordinary human being on the surface. But what is it about him that's so powerful? Not him or his physical life on this planet, but the God that dwelled in him and did such extraordinary healing work. Closing Prayer Father, the gift of spirit to each and every one of us is beyond measure. Yet we often look for other qualities about us that we would be more like things that were honored by our culture, that were beautiful, that were wealthy, that we have a great education. None of that is really necessary for a human being to be effective in the world, if they allow God to work through them. And we ask this in Jesus' name, Amen. Learn more about your ad choices.

Rolling along with more Biblical Theology, we wed two biblical mainstays--Providence and Idolatry--in a combination people might not be familiar with. Pharaoh, Job, and Peter among others show up to make sense of how anything less than the fullness of God's Providence leaves us worshiping idols of our own creation.

The show wraps with a look at Ohio State's controversial new $150K premium suites blocking student sightlines and the NFL officially scrapping the Pro Bowl.

Dr. Syed served in Gaza at both al-Aqsa Hospital and Nasser Hospital, where she documented severe injuries from drone strikes and she has firsthand experience treating civilians targeted by the IDF. She is co-author of the Costs of War Project's new report: Lethal Precision Without Accountability: Israeli Government “Quadcopter” Use in Gaza.A lot of the attention has essentially fallen off from Gaza because of this so-called ceasefire…And the media (Western media) unfortunately is complicit in this—has no interest in covering Gaza, has no interest in covering the ongoing slaughter that's happening in Gaza.Dr. Mimi SyedThe irony of all of this is that the drones and the capabilities that these drones have to shoot and to distinguish between a civilian and a combatant—the whole purpose of this is to mitigate civilian harm. And instead, perversely, they're being used for the opposite. They're being used to target civilians and children. And in the U.N. report, they specifically talk about a soldier describing the experience, saying that it's like a video game. He can be sitting somewhere far away, away from the dangers of a military zone, away from the dangers of combatants, and essentially target whoever he wants, and shoot. And these drones have the capability of distinguishing between a child, an adult, a combatant. And most of these cases that I documented, the child was by themselves. There was no other adult harmed.Dr. Mimi SyedJoel McCleary served as Deputy Assistant to the President during the Carter Administration. As president of the Sawyer-Miller Group he oversaw international strategic advisory work for fourteen prime ministers and presidents. Currently, he is Managing Partner of Four Seasons Ventures, which has conducted in-depth studies for the Department of Defense and Department of Homeland Security on biodefense. These studies reviewed the emergency powers of the President in the event of a pandemic or major biological weapons attack. He is co-founder of the nonpartisan nonprofit Keep Our Republic.November 3rd is just the prelude to January 3rd—the game (so to speak) is who controls the Speakership. And that is determined by the certified members who are certified by the current House—they will determine who meets on January 3rd. So obviously what Trump does not want (or any President does not want) is there to be an opposing party's Speaker.Joel McClearyWe're not saying that anything is inevitable. We're just saying what is possible if you look at what they're saying and if you look at where they might go if they feel compelled to do so. So NSPM-7 is probably the most frightening aspect of this whole thing. And what's most frightening is how few people have focused on it. All of us need to read these documents at the ACLU (the Brennan Center has done fantastic work). And Mark Medish and I just are appalled that still, in Democratic circles or other circles, we are not yet comprehending the meaning of NSPM-7 and how it threatens each one of us in reality.Joel McClearyNews 8/21/26* This week, another round of primaries were held, most notably in Florida. For progressives, the biggest victory is that of Angie Nixon, a DSA-backed member of the Florida House of Representatives, representing Jacksonville. Nixon trounced her opponent – Alex Vindman, who testified against Trump during the 2019 impeachment effort – winning 56% of the vote to his 44% despite being outspent by a margin of 16 to 1. Forbes reports that in her victory speech, Nixon said “We have proved that everyday people are more powerful than corporations and billionaires…We went up against the political establishment, against millions of dollars of outside spending…and we won. This win was for the little guys and girls…We, the hardworking everyday people of Florida, sent a shock wave to the Washington, D.C., establishment.” Unfortunately, Nixon's candidacy, like that of any statewide Democratic campaign in the Sunshine State, remains a long shot. The last Democrat to win a U.S. Senate seat in Florida was former astronaut Bill Nelson in 2012.* More disappointing were the down-ballot results in these primaries. In the 20th congressional district, a majority-minority district centered on Broward County, Debbie Wasserman Schultz won with 45% of the vote, according to NBC. She defeated four Black candidates, including young progressive Elijah Manley. Wasserman Schultz previously represented the 25th district, but following the Republican-led mid-decade redistricting program carried out in Florida, she opted to seek reelection in this heavily Democratic seat. The Black candidates had tried and failed to consolidate behind a single choice.* And in Florida's 25th congressional district, ultra-zionist incumbent Congressman Jared Moskowitz “warded off” a challenge from his left in the form of Oliver Larkin, a DSA-backed union organizer. Larkin drew substantial media attention, first when he appeared on Fox and, asked about immigration and crime, he demanded accountability for “this pedophile president Donald Trump” and others implicated in the Jeffrey Epstein scandal and again during an interview with WPLG Local 10 when Larkin was “faced with genocide denial.” According to the Middle East Eye, Larkin “raised the topic of Israel's genocide in Gaza, pointing to statements and findings from institutions such as the United Nations, Amnesty International and Israeli human rights organisation B'Tselem,” which the interviewer, Glenna Milberg incorrectly dismissed as “factually incorrect.” Larkin “outlined Israel's deliberate targeting of civilians, restrictions on humanitarian aid and attacks on churches, schools and other places of worship,” and Milberg again “interrupted and said his account was ‘factually not correct.'” The Middle East Eye writes that the exchange was then “cut short when Milberg said she was being told they had to wrap up the interview.”* Turning to Texas, NOTUS reports Democratic Senate nominee James Talarico – capitalizing on the acrimonious primary battle between sitting Republican Senator John Cornyn and his victorious primary opponent Texas AG Ken Paxton – has taken the extraordinary step of bringing a Cornyn aide onto his campaign. According to this piece, “Jacob Smith, who worked for Cornyn for five years as a deputy legislative director and policy adviser, is taking on the role of deputy policy director for Talarico's campaign.” In a statement, Smith said that he is “proud” to join Talarico's campaign and that “Instead of playing partisan politics, Talarico speaks to the needs of everyday people who day in and day out work too hard for too little.” Smith also laid into Paxton, calling him “the most corrupt, self-dealing politician in Texas who would sell their futures to the highest contributor just to hold onto power,” and urging “fellow Republicans who know Ken Paxton is unfit to serve in the Senate to finally hold him accountable at the ballot box.” This piece quotes an anonymous “Republican operative” who characterized this kind of “cross-party hire” as “unheard of.” He added that Talarico has a “better chance than any Democrat has had in the state in a very long time.”* In more primary news, last week we discussed the victory of former Hartford, Connecticut Mayor Luke Bronin over 14-term incumbent Congressman John Larson. That same day, the Lever published an exposé of Stephen Mandel, a Connecticut-based billionaire hedge fund manager and Democratic mega-donor who is the “largest bankroller of a nascent political machine promising to ‘redefine' the Democratic Party.” Via two organizations – Majority Democrats and the Bench – Mandel and his wife have funneled tens of millions of dollars to candidates of their choosing in an attempt to form a “new [political] center.” According to this report, Bronin amassed a “sizable war chest,” during his primary challenge against Larson, much of which traces back to Mandel. Not only that, apparently, Bronin “used to be on the payroll of a nonprofit funded by the billionaire,” and his campaign's policy stances reflect the network's preferences and priorities. The Lever notes that, perhaps unsurprisingly, the Mandels did not return their requests for comment.* In more Connecticut news, in the wake of Larson's defeat, local media is beginning to question whether Senator Richard Blumenthal should run for another term in 2028, with WTNH noting that he will be 82 at the end of his current term. While Blumenthal has not formally announced that he will run for a fourth senate term, he did confirm that he has a campaign committee and it is raising money. This piece notes that Blumenthal is the second oldest member of Connecticut's congressional delegation, behind only Congresswoman Rosa DeLauro, 83, who represents the state's third congressional district. With the increased scrutiny on aging Democrats, and donors like Stephen Mandel bankrolling primary challenges by younger candidates, Blumenthal's decision of whether or not to run or anoint a successor could prove critical. For his part, Blumenthal is quoted saying “Age is a state of mind…and I am very, very happy doing my job right now, as energetically as I feel is appropriate.”* Senator Blumenthal features prominently in another story this week from a different part of Washington. NOTUS reports that on K Street, lobbyists for the defense industry – literally the military industrial complex – are “girding for aggressive investigations of President Donald Trump's Pentagon and the companies that do business with it,” if the Democrats retake one or both houses of Congress in the midterm elections. This piece emphasizes that Democrats have “spent two years seething that the Trump administration shut Congress out of decisions about the Pentagon, from the Iran war to politically connected contractors and a defense budget that's ballooned to $1.5 trillion.” Lobbyists are reported to be particularly wary of their clients being caught between outraged congressional Democrats and an uncooperative White House for the next two years. Blumenthal, the top Democrat on the Senate Investigations Subcommittee, is already zeroing in on 1789 Capital, where Donald Trump Jr. is an investor, and American Ventures, where Eric Trump is an investor, both of which received billions of dollars in government awards. He is quoted saying “We need to look into whether Trump's sons are profiting from investments in defense contractors that involve insider information or contracts awarded in ways that compromise defense interests.” Other investigations he signaled they might pursue include a probe of “the administration's growing reliance on single-source contracts and whether the administration has given preferential treatment to companies with political ties, particularly those that donated to Trump's White House ballroom project.” In the House, Democrats on the Armed Services Committee will likely focus on “military strategy, acquisition decisions and the Pentagon's rapidly growing budget,” while the Oversight Committee, is more focused on “corruption, conflicts of interest, companies connected to Trump allies such as SpaceX and other ethics issues.” When Republicans won control of the House, Senate, and presidency in 2024, many lobbying firms axed their Democratic staff. It seems they are beginning to regret that decision.* Our next two stories have to do with the AI boom. First, in Wisconsin, the politics of AI data centers have come to in large part define the ongoing race to succeed Democrat Tony Evers as Governor. DSA-backed candidate Francesca Hong rode her vow of a moratorium on new data center construction to front-runner status in the primary, only to lose by a hair to Evers' last minute chosen successor, David Crowley. Since becoming the nominee, Crowley has refused to adopt Hong's signature issue and his opponent, Republican Congressman Tom Tiffany is taking full advantage. According to Wisconsin Public Radio, Tiffany's campaign has released a new TV ad labeling his opponent “data center David Crowley.” In the ad, Crowley is “seen saying Wisconsin has the opportunity to be ‘an AI and a data hub not only for the entire country, but for the entire globe.'” Ironically, Tiffany himself has cast “pro-data center votes in Congress” and Crowley's campaign argues that Tiffany “wouldn't be as hard on developers as his campaign claims,” though he is now campaigning on “ending state subsidies for data centers and creating additional protections for ratepayers and the state's farmland and water.”* Next, a stunning feat of reporting by 404 Media exposed how “Amazon is buying massive quantities of books, scanning them for AI training data, and destroying them in the process.“ To investigate this, the outlet placed a tracking device in a rare book that they suspected would be acquired by an AI company for training data. Then, when indeed it was, they followed the book around the country to its final destination – an Amazon warehouse in Las Vegas, Nevada – where employees say that “all [they] do is scan books..Some are assigned to cut books, and others go to receive where they get books and scan the bar codes.” The printed book is destroyed in the process. The logo of the Amazon team that works at this warehouse, called VGT3, is a dinosaur, brandishing its teeth and with a book in its hands. The piece notes that the AI company Anthropic has previously been sued for engaging in the practice of destroying rare books in order to feed them into their large language models, or LLMs, on copyright grounds, but the “judge in the lawsuit ruled it was fair use and not a copyright violation for Anthropic to scan a book for training data in part because it destroyed the original, printed copy.” The author of this piece notes that these rare books are not necessarily monetarily valuable – they could be rare because “not many copies of them were ever printed,” or “they are in a foreign language not many people speak.” Still, as one bookseller said “There are different types of value…[besides monetary value] There's historical value, intellectual value, sentimental value. All sorts of things, and all of those the AI companies don't care about. They just want the content as a bunch of words strung together.”* Finally, we turn to the Vatican, where, Drop Site reports, Pope Leo XIV is using his pulpit to call for the opening of humanitarian corridors for civilians in Sudan. In his weekly Angelus address, the first American Pope highlighted “the plight of civilians in the besieged city of el-Obeid.” In addition to his call for humanitarian corridors, the pontiff called for both sides to “cease attacks on civilian targets.” Drop Site explains that El-Obeid, the largest city in Kordofan – the region comprising central Sudan – has faced intense drone attacks as the rebels of the Rapid Support Forces (RSF) battle the Sudanese army for supremacy in the region. An RSF siege has “left over 500,000 people in famine conditions for months and without supplies.” The United Nations warns that if El-Obeid falls, it could follow in the mold of el-Fasher, which fell to the RSF last year and resulted in “mass ethnic cleansing massacres by the RSF that killed an estimated 60,000 people.” We can only hope that the world will heed the Pope's plea for peace and humanitarian assistance to the civilian population of Sudan.This has been Francesco DeSantis, with In Case You Haven't Heard.
