In this episode of The Capital Raiser Show, Richard C. Wilson sits down with Marcus Ridgway, founder of F6 Partners and co-founder of Invitation Homes, for a fireside chat on attracting institutional capital at scale, building frameworks that earn the trust of the world's largest investors, and why extreme conservatism - not big risk - is what created one of the most impressive real estate track records in the country. Marcus shares how building institutional-grade systems from day one led to Blackstone wiring $35 million before a single document was signed, and how they ultimately scaled that relationship to $1 billion - all because the architecture, software, and reporting were airtight from the start. The conversation dives into risk mitigation frameworks, optionality as an insurance policy against volatility, the mindset shift from hustle to architecture, what separates centimillionaires from founders who never scale, and why Marcus believes fat tail risk is the defining challenge facing every investor in the years ahead. Topics covered include: Securing $4 billion from Blackstone and taking Invitation Homes public on the NYSE Why institutional investors never look at IRR - only downside risk Building architecture that creates returns vs. relying on hustle to create results Why exactness and transparency with institutional capital is non-negotiable Creating an investment committee even for a single house purchase How a cold call from an industry researcher led directly to Blackstone Optionality as an insurance policy against volatility Returning $200 million to an investor when the strategy no longer made sense Offshoring decisions so the business doesn't depend on one person Separating ego and identity from outcomes as a founder Student housing and senior housing as the top opportunities right now Fat tail risk - why black swan events are increasing in frequency and what to do about it How conservative structuring, not big bets, built a billion-dollar platform The Capital Raiser Show brings together billionaire investors, family offices, elite entrepreneurs, and capital allocators to discuss investing, scaling, strategic growth, and wealth creation.

Enterprises are running more AI agents than their security teams realize, and attackers only need to be right once. Anand Oswal, EVP of Network Security at Palo Alto Networks, explains how to secure agents across four surfaces: enterprise, SaaS, endpoints, and the browser.

While LLMs and agents are new to appsec and everyone else, a lot of AI security requirements translate to well-known API security requirements. Jeremy Snyder helps us frame the OWASP LLM Top 10 into five layers in order to help orgs understand and prioritize their attack surface. A lot of orgs don't have to deal with model-specific threats or building their own GPU architecture, but every org adopting LLMs and agents should be aware of how those agents are being invoked and the output those agents are producing. That awareness of input and output helps in identifying and mitigating prompt injection attacks, ensuring agents are working within their expected boundaries, and taming token budgets.

Organizations are facing a new kind of security challenge: one defined by compressed timelines, emerging risks, expanding trust boundaries, and competing priorities. That urgency is only increasing. Recent White House Executive Orders make clear that quantum isn't a distant concern: the U.S. is accelerating quantum innovation while setting firm timelines to transition critical systems to post-quantum cryptography. In this episode, leaders from IBM, U.S. Customs and Border Protection, and Entrust cut through the hype to focus on what matters now: where to prioritize, how to balance immediate risks with long-term transformation, and what it takes to prepare for a future where machines act autonomously and cryptographic trust must continuously evolve.

While our opening €17.5 million bid has reportedly been rejected by the Dutch side, the exciting news is that Read is incredibly keen on a move to the Premier League and is said to be very enthusiastic about the prospect of developing his game under Glasner. Feyenoord are holding out for a fee closer to €25-30 million, but Forest are already preparing an improved package exceeding €20 million to get the deal over the line. Securing a talent like Read would be a massive statement of intent, especially with our top players—led by Morgan Gibbs-White—calling for high-quality recruitments to ensure we push well clear of any relegation scraps this year. What are your thoughts on this opening bid, Reds? Should we pay the extra money to bring this Eredivisie star to Trentside?

The NRL is staying on Sky. The television broadcaster has secured the rights for another seven years, starting in 2028 and running through until the end of the 2034 season. The deal is reportedly worth $61 million a year – up to $20 million more than before. Sky TV CEO Sophie Moloney told Mike Hosking that they definitely believed, and this has confirmed, that they are the right home for rugby league in New Zealand. She says they're absolutely thrilled that the combination of their premium sport and free to air offering has delivered this outcome. LISTEN ABOVE See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
Robert Cwiklik, guest author, recounts how, in July 1866, New Orleans became the site of a brutal police-led riot against a constitutional convention aimed at securing Black voting rights. Following Lincoln's death, President Andrew Johnson's lenient Reconstruction policy empowered former Confederates, who enacted "Black Codes" to essentially re-enslave African-Americans through vagrancy laws and labor restrictions. When unionists attempted to rewrite Louisiana's constitution to include Black suffrage, local police and white citizens opened fire on the convention-goers. The massacre resulted in at least 44 deaths, mostly Black veterans and delegates, while white casualties were largely attributed to friendly fire. This violence horrified the North, leading to a massive Republican victory in the 1866 midterm elections and providing a mandate for Radical Reconstruction. The incident highlighted the deep-seated resistance of white Southerners to the concept of racial equality and the failure of Johnson's initial approach to national healing.

Tomorrow, America will celebrate its birth. But the decisive moment, even the real birth of modern America, argues Alexander Mikaberidze in his new book The Louisiana Purchase: The Grand Bargain and the Making of America, may not have been 1776 at all. It was 1803, the year of the Louisiana Purchase. The year Thomas Jefferson bought the future from Napoleon Bonaparte. This was the moment the young American republic doubled its size in a single transaction, absorbed the heart of a continent and set itself on the path to becoming a global superpower. The numbers associated with the Louisiana Purchase are staggering. 828,000 square miles. Thirteen states. Fifteen million dollars — four cents an acre, so the mythology tells us. But Mikaberidze reminds us that the deal Jefferson signed did not actually grant the United States the land. Instead, it merely authorised the republic to negotiate the acquisition of land still owned by Native Americans. So it became the founding event of the US-Indian Treaty System that produced over 200 Native American cessions between 1804 and 1970, and cost the Republic billions of dollars. The Louisiana Purchase was America's grand Faustian bargain. It was a deal that not only enabled America's eventual rise as a 20th century superpower, but also the expansion of slavery, the destruction of Native peoples, and the 19th century imperial reach of the Monroe Doctrine. So forget 1776 and save the fireworks to remember 1803. And celebrate with croissants rather than hot dogs. Without Napoleon Bonaparte's generosity, the United States might be just another regional power like France. Five Takeaways • The Louisiana Purchase: Arguably the Decisive Moment in American History: Mikaberidze's opening argument: if you had to pick the single most important moment in American history, 1803 has a stronger claim than 1776. Independence established the republic. The Louisiana Purchase made it a continental power. 828,000 square miles. Thirteen states. The heart of the continent. Securing the Mississippi for American commerce. Laying the groundwork for the Monroe Doctrine, Manifest Destiny, and America's eventual emergence as a global superpower. The revolution created the nation. The purchase created its destiny. • Four Cents an Acre? The Real Price Was Billions: The famous number: $15 million, or four cents an acre. The less famous fact: the agreement Jefferson signed did not grant the United States the land. It merely authorised the republic to negotiate the acquisition of the land, which was still owned by Native Americans. The Louisiana Purchase was the founding event of the US-Indian Treaty System — which produced over 200 Native American cessions between 1804 and 1970, and cost the United States not $15 million but billions of dollars. What appeared to be the greatest real estate deal in history was actually an authorisation to conduct the most expensive series of land negotiations in history. • The Grand Faustian Bargain: Slavery, Native Peoples, and the Monroe Doctrine: Andrew's formulation — the Grand Faustian Bargain, the deal with the devil — is one Mikaberidze accepts. The purchase did three things simultaneously: it made America a continental power and a future superpower; it enabled the expansion of slavery into the vast new territory (the Missouri crisis of 1820 was a direct consequence); and it set in motion the dispossession of Native peoples at a scale and speed that would otherwise have been impossible. The Monroe Doctrine — America's declaration that the Western Hemisphere was its sphere of influence — would not have been conceivable without the continental reach the purchase provided. • Napoleon's Bad Weather: The Contingency That Made America: The counterfactual at the heart of Mikaberidze's book: in October 1802, Napoleon had 4,000 veteran French troops ready to sail for New Orleans. The bad weather delayed them. Then it was too late — war with Britain was coming, and Napoleon decided to sell. If those troops had arrived, Mikaberidze argues, France might have retained effective control of southern Louisiana, cultivated alliances with Native nations (as it historically had), and used those alliances to constrain American expansion inland. Without the Louisiana hinterland, the American republic might have been a prosperous but regionally limited power, strong in New England and the Northeast but denied the continental reach that made it a superpower. • Croissants in Kansas, Tacos in Oklahoma: The Counterfactual Continents: Andrew's closing question: what would July 4 look like in Kansas and Oklahoma if the purchase hadn't happened? Mikaberidze's answer: French Louisiana, Spanish Texas, and Native-controlled hinterlands are all in play. The people of Kansas might indeed be celebrating with croissants rather than hot dogs. Mikaberidze adds: or tacos. Almost certainly more tacos and moles, given the Spanish and ultimately Mexican influence that would have prevailed across most of the continent. The American empire of liberty, in this alternative timeline, stops somewhere in the middle of what is now Missouri.

John is joined by Michael Gottlieb, partner in the Washington, D.C., office of Willkie Farr & Gallagher, and Nicholas Reddick, partner in the San Francisco office of Willkie Farr & Gallagher. They discuss the landmark $1.1 billion judgment Michael and Nicholas obtained against the Islamic Republic of Iran on behalf of U.S. service members and civilians harmed by Iran-backed terrorist groups, and the legal framework for suing state sponsors of terrorism and private organizations that support them.Claims against sovereign states are based on the Foreign Sovereign Immunities Act (FSIA). FSIA claims require plaintiffs to prove that the foreign sovereign materially supported acts of terrorism, often through militia groups operating in conflict zones. The process is complex and time-consuming. Although Iran never appears to defend these cases, plaintiffs must still prove liability and damages with admissible evidence, often obtained through Freedom of Information Act requests, military reports, and expert testimony.Because such judgments are rarely enforceable against Iran's frozen or inaccessible assets, successful plaintiffs must seek compensation through the U.S. Victims of State Sponsored Terrorism Fund, which draws on congressional appropriations and settlements from unrelated sanctions violations. Payments from the fund are made annually and prorated based on judgment size, but disbursements have been inconsistent.Recent developments, including circuit court rulings and a pending Supreme Court case, may reshape key legal standards for FSIA claims, such as the requirement of an actual death for certain terrorism-related claims. Several new legislative efforts seek to expand the cases that may be brought under the FSIA and increase the funds allocated for compensating victims.Claims against private entities, such as banks, contractors, or companies that have evaded sanctions, rely on the Anti-Terrorism Act (ATA). Many such cases are currently being litigated. ATA claims require proof of the defendant's material support and knowledge of terrorist outcomes. Defendants in ATA cases are likely to appear to defend against the claims, but only after plaintiffs navigate complex issues of jurisdiction and service of process.Podcast Link: Law-disrupted.fmHost: John B.

After seven years in a Texas prison, Tim came home with prison politics, gang ties, and connections that would pull him straight into the meth game. In episode 4 of Tim's series, he breaks down how life behind bars shaped his mindset, how he adjusted after release, and how prison relationships eventually led to cartel-level meth connections. Tim talks about working on death row, surviving the Texas prison system, coming home on parole, and entering a dangerous world of meth trafficking, cartel plugs, stash houses, and small-town drug markets. He also explains how rural Texas became flooded with ice, why meth spread so quickly through small towns, and how one out-of-state connection changed everything. This is a raw look at prison life, cartel influence, the meth pipeline, and the consequences of chasing fast money after prison. Watch until the end for Tim's reflection on how quickly the money, pressure, and paranoia took over. Topics covered: -Meth trafficking in Texas -Cartel meth connections -Small-town drug epidemics -Life after prison -Parole and halfway houses -Cartel stash houses -The prison-to-streets pipeline Go Support Tim!

In Episode 372 of The Real Jason Duncan Podcast, you signed your name, walked out on your own, and called it freedom. So why does it feel like the business owns you instead? Two hundred and fifty years ago this week, Thomas Jefferson sat in a hot rented room in Philadelphia and signed a document that could have gotten him hanged. That signature didn't make anybody free — not that day. The actual winning took seven more brutal years. The declaration cost an afternoon. Securing it cost just about everything they had. You made a similar pledge the day you bet on yourself and started your own company. No more boss. No more permission slips. And it felt huge. But if being your own boss made you free, why does it so often feel like the business owns you instead of the other way around? In this solo Wednesday episode drawn from his What's Real newsletter, Jason exposes the lie hiding inside entrepreneurial independence — why most business owners have built a declaration with no war behind it, what the numbers say about owner-dependent businesses, and what it actually takes to go from signing the paper to winning the freedom. In this episode, Jason covers: What Thomas Jefferson's declaration has to do with the day you started your business Why signing the paper was never the freedom — and what the actual fight looks like The one sentence Jason's business coach said that cracked everything wide open Why only 20-30% of businesses that go up for sale ever actually sell — and the number one reason the rest don't Why 80% of most owners' net worth is locked inside the one thing they can't step away from The difference between ambition and a declaration with no war behind it What James figured out by year four — and what it cost him to build the way out on purpose What Proverb 14:12 says about the road that feels like freedom and where it actually leads Declaring it cost an afternoon. Securing it costs everything you have. This episode is about finally starting the fight.

Hey friends! This is a tough one to write. My dad passed away on Friday, and instead of the hacker-y tech episode I had planned, I pivoted to something more personal — another installment of our "Securing Your Family During and After a Disaster" series. I talk pretty raw and transparently today about loss, grief, and the practical stuff that makes a hard situation just a little less hard. Fair warning: it's about death and dying, so if that's not where your head is today, it's totally okay to duck out – we'll catch you next week. Here's what I cover: My dad's last day — He spent Thursday doing all his favorite things: chainsaws, ATVs, trap-shooting, mowing, and weed-whipping. Then Chinese food with the family and marveling at modern video games for the first time since the Atari 5200. It was, by all accounts, a perfect day for him. How we found out — My son Cameron, who's finishing up paramedic school, was visiting and sprung into EMT mode when my dad was found unresponsive Friday morning. He did CPR for 10 straight minutes — on his grandpa, who was his favorite person in the world. That's the stuff that's going to stay with Cam (and me) for a long time. Getting some closure — Cameron had the presence of mind to ask the paramedics to leave my dad in place so I could have a few minutes with him when we arrived. That was both devastating and, in its own way, healing. Why pre-planning your funeral is a gift to your family — My parents had nearly everything already picked out: the pastor, Bible verses, music, the military honors ceremony, photos for the display board, and even a time limit on service length (45 minutes and no more!). My dad had pre-written his own obituary. When we sat down with the funeral home, the heavy lifting was already done — and that was a genuine gift to all of us in an incredibly hard moment. Storyworth — seriously, do this — Years ago we signed my dad up for Storyworth, a service that sends your loved one a weekly question via email (things like "What's your earliest childhood memory?" or "Do you have any regrets?") and compiles their answers into a hardcover book. It runs about $100. Reading that book the last few nights has been incredibly comforting — including finding out my dad started smoking at age 8 using used cigarette butts rolled in toilet paper. Gross! Get your end-of-life wishes in writing — My wife's mom had verbally told us she wanted to be cremated, but it wasn't documented, and other family members made a different call. My dad put "cremation" right in his paperwork, no ambiguity. My recommendation: have this conversation with your loved ones, write their wishes down and make them official. Funeral home "upsell" moment — I had no idea there were apparently 627 ways to incorporate your loved one's remains into keepsakes — pendants, rings, necklaces with fingerprints, biodegradable urns for water scattering, etc. Some family members were very into this. I was not quite ready to turn my dad into an Atari cartridge, but your mileage may vary. On grief itself — Everybody handles it differently, at different speeds and intensities. My approach is to head straight into it rather than put on a happy face and deal with unprocessed grief years later. I encourage everyone — especially the kids — to not hold back. Ask the questions. Tell the stories. Cry if you need to. Give each other grace. Coming up next week — Back to pentesting content! I'll share details on a new lab from the folks who brought us Game of Active Directory, and I'm getting back on the CARTP (Certified Azure Red Team Professional) horse. I'm also tentatively eyeing the third Thursday of July for an unedited livestream of owning Ninja Hacker Academy from start to finish — Kali setup, tools, Mythic C2, BallisKit obfuscation, the whole thing. More details to come. If you're the thoughts, prayers, and/or good vibes type, I'd really appreciate you sending some my family's way over the next few weeks.

Let the atmospheric, quiet journey through the ancient palace distract your mind from tomorrow's stress and guide you into a restful, restorative slumber.
PRESIDENT TRUMP signed two executive orders Monday that pave the way for the coming Antichrist. It'a unlikely the president understands that's what he's done. His EOs, Ushering in the Next Frontier of Quantum Innovation and Securing the Nation Against Advanced Cryptographic Attacks, commit the resources of the United States government to developing a framework for quantum computing. This will provide the processing power needed by a theocratic government to control all aspects of our lives. It sounds far-fetched now, but this is a plan that's been ninety years in the making. We refer you to Patrick M. Wood's article “How Trump's New Quantum EO Locks Technocracy Into Place,” and his groundbreaking book Technocracy Rising. Also: Texas to require Bible readings in school; Canada's new hate speech law criminalizes parts of the Bible; massive earthquakes devastate Venezuela; the weaponization of space; and Iran already shooting at ships in the Strait of Hormuz.

Keep winning! Two-time Emmy and Three-time NAACP Image Award-winning, television Executive Producer Rushion McDonald interviewed Katrina Fitten. Purpose of the Interview The interview aims to educate entrepreneurs—especially women business owners—on how to secure funding responsibly, avoid scams, and develop a strategic financial plan. It also highlights Katrina Fitten’s expertise as CEO/CFO of New Day for You Financial and her mission to help startups and small businesses access capital. Key Takeaways Funding Opportunities & Qualifications Katrina helps women business owners secure up to $100,000 in 100 days or less, with same-day approval and next-day funding. Basic qualifications include: Credit score of 680+ Existing credit lines (at least $10,000) A clear business mission and low-risk profile. Avoiding Scams Beware of unsolicited emails/texts promising easy money. Do your homework: Check companies on Better Business Bureau (BBB). Look for testimonials and partnerships with reputable banks (e.g., Chase, American Express). Never share sensitive information without verifying legitimacy. Importance of a Business Plan Funding is not free money—you need a strategic plan. Katrina calls it a “money mission”: know exactly how funds will be deployed. Without a plan, money disappears quickly, leading to debt and bad credit. Family & Friends Lending Treat personal loans like business loans: Have written agreements with terms, repayment schedule, and penalties. Decide upfront if it’s a gift or a loan. Services Offered by New Day for You Financial SBA loans, equipment loans, purchase order financing. Lines of credit and 0% interest credit cards (18–21 months). Credit card stacking for higher funding amounts. Credit restoration referrals for those with poor credit. Success Story Example: A tax accountant secured $160,000 in less than a week due to strong credit, revenue history, and a solid business plan. Notable Quotes “If you don’t have a plan for your money, your money will have a plan—and you’ll look up and it’s gone.” “We don’t want to be out here racking up good debt and then you’re not going to be responsible.” “You have to vet companies. Go to BBB, Google them, and check their credibility.” “If I give you money, I decide—is it a gift or a loan? There are rules to borrowing money.” “We say if you don’t get anything, we don’t get paid.” #SHMS #STRAW #BEST #AMISee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
Jonathan Schanzer critiques the rumored US-Iran deal, warning that it offers significant sanctions relief without securing nuclear concessions. He argues that the plan fails to address ballistic missiles or proxies like Hezbollah. Schanzer expresses concern that the deal grants Iran a veto over Israeli defense actions in Lebanon.
