Senator Josh Hawley (R-MO), who serves on the Senate Committees on the Judiciary; Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs; Health, Education, Labor, and Pensions; and Small Business and Entrepreneurship, joined The Guy Benson Show today to discuss the tragic murder of two Israeli embassy workers in Washington, D.C. by a pro-Hamas protester. He condemned the lack of response from Democrats like Ilhan Omar, calling out what he sees as a disturbing silence in the face of antisemitic violence. Hawley also weighed in on the passage of Trump's "Big Beautiful Bill," praising the widespread tax relief it delivers and outlining how he believes federal spending can still be cut without sacrificing Medicaid for truly struggling Americans.

Episode 4239: Exposing The Lies Of The Senate Committees
On Tuesday, a memo that ordered the Freezing of Federals Funds for Grants and Hundreds of Programs set off a nationwide firestorm of confusion and complaints. A group of non-profits sued to block the order from Trump's Office of Management and Budget. And a Federal Judged paused the freeze temporarily. A spokesman for the Trump Administration said the directive should not be interpreted as a complete funding freeze. The official, who was not authorized to discuss the internal memo publicly, said that agencies should review their grants, loans, and programs to ensure they align with the new administration's priorities. This is a developing story. I will be posting updates on YouTube and TikTok. And today and tomorrow, two Senate Committees will question Robert Kennedy Jr., Trump's nominee to run the Department of Health and Human Services. On Tuesday, Caroline Kennedy, the daughter of the late President John F. Kennedy, wrote a letter to Senate leaders asking them to reject her cousin's nomination.

You will be remembered as a tool in the Democratic Party's strategy of misusing the Justice Department to visit injustice on innocent people with differing political views. I am a victim of your dysfunctional leadership, but unlike many of your targets, I have survived unscathed.” You can read the full editorial here: https://www.wsj.com/opinion/a-letter-to-merrick-garland-justice-department-investigation-unjust-lawfare-5ba52b42?mod=opinion_lead_pos5. 5:00pm- On Wednesday, the Senate Judiciary Committee held a confirmation hearing for former Florida Attorney General Pam Bondi who has been nominated to serve as U.S. Attorney General in the incoming Trump Administration.

Hosts: Leah Murray and Rusty Cannon Analyzing the motivation, effects of new ad for Brian King and Phil LymanA new campaign ad for Democrat Brian King features former GOP gubernatorial candidate Phil Lyman. Both King and Lyman come together with a singular message: do not re-elect current Governor Spencer Cox. It’s a message that’s shocked many on both sides of the aisle. The KSL at Night hosts try to figure out why Lyman would join in a video with King in a way that appears to show an endorsement (Lyman has since clarified that it was not an endorsement). Robert Axson, Chairman of the Utah Republican Party also joins to share his take on the whole situation. Republicans rallying around Governor Spencer CoxUtah Republicans – even those who have criticized Governor Spencer Cox in the past – are now rallying around his re-elect efforts. State Representative Kera Birkeland wrote a social media post explaining why she was supporting Cox, even though she’s been in agreement with Phil Lyman on many things in the past. She joins the program to explain more of her reasoning while also offering her take on the King/Lyman video ad. Utahns to vote on amendment that could change how food is taxedIn November, Utahns will vote on an amendment that could change how the state receives tax revenue. The state is asking voters to remove a constitutional earmark in order to give more flexibility to the budget. That change would remove a state tax on food, but it could also jeopardize funding for education. The KSL at Night hosts dig into what this amendment could mean for Utah’s budget and your pocketbook. Speculating on coming changes to the U.S. Senate CommitteesSeveral changes could be coming to the U.S. Senate Committees following the November election. Folks will shuffle around between committees like the one on Foreign Relations or the one on Veterans’ Affairs. But one potential shift stood out to the KSL at Night hosts: Sen. Elizabeth Warren may take a top spot on the Banking Committee. The hosts give an insider look into what that could mean for the committee. Discussing the role of government in housing, using examples from ArgentinaThe president of Argentina has made many libertarian changes in the South American country, including the elimination of rent control on apartments. Since making that decision, housing has opened up drastically. Leaders here in the U.S. have made similar pushes for rent control – is that a good idea? The KSL at Night hosts discuss the issue with Steve Waldrip, Utah Senior Advisor for Housing Strategy and Innovation to get his take on housing issues in Utah. Controversy over gymnastics' medal from Paris OlympicsImagine getting an Olympic medal, only to be told you need to return it because an appeal was overturned. It’s what Team USA Gymnast Jordan Chiles is dealing with right now. There’s controversy over the entire ordeal, especially with regards to people on the appeals commissions and their ties to Romania, which ultimately received the bronze medal. The KSL at Night hosts finish the show breaking it all down for our listeners.

This week, we're talking to New Mexico Senate Majority Leader Peter Wirth. We'll be talking about how he is approaching this year's 60-day session of the New Mexico Legislature. We'll take a look at many of the big-ticket items lawmakers are discussing as lawmakers set about crafting an historically large budget — one Wirth described as larger than any lawmaker, living or dead, has ever seen. Totaling $9.4 billion in recurring spending — an 11.9% increase from the last fiscal year — there is no shortage of ideas on how to best spend that money. And that doesn't include the one-time, nonrecurring funds that will be doled out this year. Unlike 30-day sessions, which happen in even-numbered years and are focused nearly exclusively on the state's budget, 60-day sessions allow any legislator in the House or Senate to introduce any bill they'd like. As a result, many are pitching their ideas to address some of the state's most pressing issues — education, public safety, early childhood development, bail reform, water conservation and energy, just to name a few. We'll talk to Majority Leader Wirth about all of those things and more. We'll also talk about the state's Land Grant Permanent Fund — sometimes referred to as the “rainy day fund” — which has long been closely guarded by legislators, though that may be changing. Well, maybe a little, anyway. Wirth, who has served in the legislature for 19 years, and in the Senate since 2009, currently serves as the vice chair of the Senate Committees' Committee and is a member of the Senate Judiciary Committee and the Senate Tax, Business and Transportation Committee. This week, we're grateful to have Senate Majority Leader Wirth joining us.

In Episode 34, Frank breaks down the legal woes of Donald Trump and is left to wonder "is it possible to be President of the United States while in jail?" Of all the cases in front of the former President, Frank thinks it might be the otherwise innocuous and strange situation of the Mar-a-logo documents that is Trump's biggest legal risk. Frank discusses the implications of a split Congress, indicating that this topic is top of mind with investors and corporate clients post the mid-term elections. He is watching the Georgia run-off for the 100th Senate seat very closely as a Democratic victory would reduce the influence of Joe Manchin and other senators at the end of the spectrum and would allow the Democrats greater control of Senate Committees. Turning to Canadian politics, Frank is not as sure as his colleague, The Honorable Rona Ambrose, that the new Premier of Alberta, Danielle Smith, will win when the province goes to the polls next May.Chapter Headings1:20 – The Number 1 Topic Dominating Frank's Investor and Corporate Conversations4:30 – Donald Trump's Bad Month – What Legal Issue is Trump's Biggest Worry?17:00 – Mid-Terms – Practical Implications of a Split Congress24:55 – Frank vs Rona – Who Wins Alberta?29:35 – Frank Remains Steadfast "There will NOT be a Windfall Tax on Oil and Gas"33:50 – The New UK Government – Adults are Now in the RoomThis podcast was recorded on November 25, 2022.For relevant disclosures, visit: tdsecurities.com/ca/en/tds-geopolitics-episode-34.

About Gene Kalwarski and Cheiron: For more than 30 years, Gene Kalwarski has been one of the nation's leading actuaries to multi-billion dollar jointly-trusteed pension and health and welfare funds in the Taft-Hartley and public sector arenas. He is an industry leader in the development of PC-based financial applications and interactive analytical tools that empower fund trustees to understand evaluate and strategize alternative solutions to their financial challenges with respect to pension funding, escalating healthcare costs, and investment strategy. Gene's ideas and achievements have been chronicled in many industry publications, Money magazine, and at the annual Business Week CFO Forum. He specializes in creating innovative real-time simulation decision tools for financial executives facing major strategic decisions with respect to pension funding, investment strategy, and health insurance. His clients have been primarily multi-billion dollar funds of major corporations, states, Taft-Hartley funds, U.S. federal agencies, and the governments of foreign countries. Gene applies a "hands on" approach in designing and developing evolving technology applications for clients. Staying actively involved in this dynamic field allows him to incorporate his depth of knowledge and experience to the applications being developed, enhancing them to be more effectively useful from an upper management perspective. In addition, he has extensive experience presenting actuarial concepts to large audiences who have little technical expertise. Gene has testified on several occasions before U.S. Senate Committees and regularly testifies before state legislatures and boards of trustees on behalf of the many state-wide pension funds he represents. After more than 21 years at Milliman where he established the firm's Washington office, in 1984 he became the firm's youngest Equity Principal. By 1990 he was the youngest Equity Principal to serve on the firm's Board of Directors. He joined Cheiron in November 2002. Prior to working at Milliman, Gene worked for two years at Towers Perrin. He began his actuarial career at the Pension Benefit Guaranty Corporation or PBGC where he spent nearly five years. Cheiron (pronounced ki´• ron) is an employee-owned, full-service actuarial and financial consultancy, advising a national client base of public employers, Taft-Hartley plans, non-profits and corporations, from offices in Washington, DC; Charlotte; Chicago; Philadelphia; New York; Portland, OR; Los Angeles; San Francisco; and San Diego. Our primary business is in the pension and health areas, where we help clients identify, measure, and monitor financial risks, and assist them in addressing those risks. At the heart of these services is our proprietary line of sophisticated "X-scan" modeling tools that allow clients to see, in real time, the nature and degree of financial risk they face, and determine when deeper analysis is needed. We stand behind our work, serving our clients with integrity, responsiveness and objectivity. Our only business is providing analysis and advice. We do not ask clients to accept limitations on our liability for the quality of our work. Our advice is objective, serving only our clients interests and will not be affected by conflicts with other corporate alliances, outside advisors, external oversight entities, or between management and labor. Although Cheiron opened its doors in 2002, our seasoned consulting staff averages more than 24 years of experience. Our consultants have earned a strong national reputation for high professional standards, innovation and dedication to solving our clients' problems.

“It's a complicated issue. I think a lot of those bird disappearances come from the fact what are those disappearances come from the fact that we have massively intensified our agriculture. Large areas of North America and Europe are now under intense agriculture. They are sprayed with a whole variety of pesticides, which I think is also responsible for the fact that many insects have disappeared, so species that depend on farmland have clearly declined dramatically, but it isn't all birds and there is a piece of this complicated story that involves water birds. Herons and egrets and ducks. Those species both in North America and Europe, are now much more common than they were 30, or 40 years ago. That comes from active conservation of protecting wetlands, making sure we don't shoot our wetland birds. So it's not all doom and gloom. There are some success stories. There are many things we can do. I think 50 years ago, there were only something like 300 bald eagles in the lower 48 states. Bald eagles are now nesting in every state apart from Hawaii. Our conservation efforts have done a great job.”Stuart Pimm is a world leader in the study of present-day extinctions and what can be done to prevent them. His research covers the reasons why species become extinct, how fast they do so, the global patterns of habitat loss and species extinction and, importantly, the management consequences of this research. Pimm received his BSc degree from Oxford University in 1971 and his Ph.D. from New Mexico State University in 1974. Pimm is the author of over 350 scientific papers and five books. His commitmnt to the interface between science and policy has led to his testimony to both House and Senate Committees on the re-authorization of the Endangered Species Act.

Pimm received his BSc degree from Oxford University in 1971 and his Ph.D. from New Mexico State University in 1974. Pimm is the author of over 350 scientific papers and five books. He is one of the most highly cited environmental scientists.

His commitment to the interface between science and policy has led to his testimony to both House and Senate Committees on the re-authorization of the Endangered Species Act. He was worked and taught in Africa for nearly 30 years on elephants, most recently lions — through National Geographic's Big Cats Initiative — but always on topics that relate to the conservation of wildlife and the ecosystems on which they depend. Other research areas include the Everglades of Florida and tropical forests in South America, especially the Atlantic Coast forest of Brazil and the northern Andes — two of the world's "hotspots" for threatened species. His international honours include the Tyler Prize for Environmental Achievement (2010), the Dr. A.H. Heineken Prize for Environmental Sciences from the Royal Netherlands Academy of Arts and Sciences (2006), the Society for Conservation Biology's Edward T. LaRoe III Memorial Award (2006), and the Marsh Award for Conservation Biology, from the Marsh Christian Trust (awarded by the Zoological Society of London in 2004).

His research covers the reasons why species become extinct, how fast they do so, the global patterns of habitat loss and species extinction and, importantly, the management consequences of this research. Pimm received his BSc degree from Oxford University in 1971 and his Ph.D. from New Mexico State University in 1974. Pimm is the author of over 350 scientific papers and five books. He is one of the most highly cited environmental scientists. Pimm wrote the highly acclaimed assessment of the human impact to the planet: The World According to Pimm: a Scientist Audits the Earth in 2001. His commitment to the interface between science and policy has led to his testimony to both House and Senate Committees on the re-authorization of the Endangered Species Act. He was worked and taught in Africa for nearly 30 years on elephants, most recently lions — through National Geographic's Big Cats Initiative — but always on topics that relate to the conservation of wildlife and the ecosystems on which they depend. Other research areas include the Everglades of Florida and tropical forests in South America, especially the Atlantic Coast forest of Brazil and the northern Andes — two of the world's "hotspots" for threatened species. His international honours include the Tyler Prize for Environmental Achievement (2010), the Dr. A.H. Heineken Prize for Environmental Sciences from the Royal Netherlands Academy of Arts and Sciences (2006), the Society for Conservation Biology's Edward T. LaRoe III Memorial Award (2006), and the Marsh Award for Conservation Biology, from the Marsh Christian Trust (awarded by the Zoological Society of London in 2004). Sigma Xi, The Scientific Research Society, awarded him the William Proctor Prize for Scientific Achievement in 2007. In 2019, he won the International Cosmos Prize, which recognised his founding and directing Saving Nature, www.savingnature.org, a non-profit that uses donations for carbon emissions offsets to fund local conservation groups in areas of exceptional tropical biodiversity to restore their degraded lands. “It's a complicated issue. I think a lot of those bird disappearances come from the fact that we have massively intensified our agriculture. Large areas of North America and Europe are now under intense agriculture. They are sprayed with a whole variety of pesticides, which I think is also responsible for the fact that many insects have disappeared, so species that depend on farmland have clearly declined dramatically, but it isn't all birds and there is a piece of this complicated story that involves water birds. Herons and egrets and ducks. Those species both in North America and Europe, are now much more common than they were 30, or 40 years ago. That comes from active conservation of protecting wetlands, making sure we don't shoot our wetland birds. So it's not all doom and gloom. There are some success stories. There are many things we can do. I think 50 years ago, there were only something like 300 bald eagles in the lower 48 states. Bald eagles are now nesting in every state apart from Hawaii.

Her vast experience in both retail and wholesale industries led her to launch the first to market wholesale subscription box for boutique retailers, which she built and sold within 18 months.

As a busy mom of three, a wife to a traveling hubby, and keeping it weird in Austin, Texas, it's safe to say that my life is never boring. In addition to running my coaching business as C'N'C's CEO, I'm a certified coach for a premier virtual fitness and nutrition program helping others feel better while sustaining a healthy lifestyle. My mom and dad are thrilled that I'm putting my Exercise Science degree to good use. Along with my experience training pro athletes, S.W.A.T. members, and a high school football team, I gained 10+ years experience as the Director of Marketing building multiple court reporting companies. Lastly, I am a published writer, Content Coordinator, and Account Executive for a publication by Best Version Media. They even gave me a monthly “How to” column where I teach others how to be more self-sufficient with common household tasks. Every woman should know how their home functions and what to do if something malfunctions, man or no man. With my husband on the road, searching “How To” on the internet has transformed me into a “Mommy MacGyver”. “I don't know how you have the time.” “You're like a Supermom!” These are common things that people say, but the truth is that life hasn't always been easy or pretty....

It's not news that former President Trump tried to steal the 2020 election, but we now know that he also attempted to use the Justice Department to make it happen. CNN Political Director David Chalian breaks down two draft letters by former DOJ officials that emerged this week from the House & Senate Committees' investigation into the Jan. 6 insurrection. Both letters illustrate a frightening picture of just how far Trump was willing to go to subvert the will of the American people.

We were LIVE in the studio today with Lt. Warren Gosnell from the Frederick County Sheriff's Office for our "normal" monthly conversation about traffic safety, new laws and public safety in general. He told us about the new bicycle law that Governor Northam signed into effect on March 31, 2021 HB2262, the Bicyclist Safety Act requires the driver of a motor vehicle to change lanes when overtaking a bicycle or certain other vehicles when the lane of travel is not wide enough for the overtaking motor vehicle to pass at least three feet to the left of the overtaken vehicle. The bill also removes the limitations on riding bicycles and certain other vehicles two abreast. The Department of State Police is directed to convene a work group to review issues related to allowing bicyclists to treat stop signs as yield signs, and to report any recommendations to the chairmen of the House and Senate Committees on Transportation. We also discussed: school's out so watch out for kids in neighborhoods, back roads and near play areas; speeding is an issue
In our latest episode of the American Maritime Podcast, we hear from Dr. Michael Pillsbury, a leading expert on China.

The proposal, publicly commended by Ronald Reagan, Henry Kissinger, and James Schlesinger, later became U.S. policy during the Carter and Reagan administrations. Dr. Pillsbury served on the staff of four U.S. Senate Committees from 1978 to 1984 and 1986 to 1991. As a staff member, he drafted the Senate Labor Committee version of the legislation that enacted the U.S. Institute of Peace in 1984. He also assisted in drafting the legislation to create the National Endowment for Democracy and the annual requirement for a DOD report on Chinese military power. In 1992, under President George H. W. Bush, Dr. Pillsbury was special assistant for Asian affairs in the Office of the Secretary of Defense, reporting to Andrew W. Marshall, Director of Net Assessment.

On this episode, we are joined by U.S. Senator Jeff Merkley (D-OR), who currently serves on the Senate Committees on Appropriations, Foreign Relations, Budget, and Environment and Public Works. The senator explains that the 13th Amendment to the U.S. Constitution abolished most—but not all—slavery, permitting slavery or involuntary servitude “as a punishment for crime.” The punishment clause exception has led to the incarceration of millions of Black Americans since Reconstruction and continues to feed the current mass incarceration of people of color. Senator Jeff Merkley and Representative William Lacy Clay (D-MO-1) have introduced bicameral legislation to strike this clause in order to finally abolish slavey in the United States. The hosts for this episode are Clint Odom, NUL Senior Vice President of Policy & Advocacy, and Toni Wiley, NUL Director of Advocacy. From the National Urban League, For The Movement discusses persistent policy, social, and civil rights issues affecting communities of color.

It was a short show tonight, but we did a good one. Some headlines from around a world going insane: There is more evidence that COVID-19 Social Controls are slowly being converted into a full on mobilized world government effort to fight "climate change." Don Lemon and the Communist Front continue to show us all that civility will not stop the Left's drive to eliminate any and all dissenting voices from their End Game vision...but along the way, they also can't help but expose just how ignorant they are. Joe Biden has a hefty problem coming his way as multiple Senate Committees have published a report on a laundry list of unsavory dealings between Hunter Biden and foreign states and oligarchs -- will it matter? Then we take some calls and ask the question: What are some beliefs you have that even you think would sound insane if you told them to people?

Stuart Pimm, our guest for this episode, is Doris Duke Professor of Conservation Ecology at Duke University, and is a world leader in the study of present day extinctions and what can be done to prevent them. His research covers the reasons why species become extinct, how fast they do so, the global patterns of habitat loss and species extinction, and the management consequences of this research. His commitment to the interface between science and policy has lead to his testimony to both House and Senate Committees on the re-authorization of the Endangered Species Act. He has worked and taught in Africa for nearly 20 years on elephants, and most recently lions — through National Geographic’s Big Cats Initiative — but always on topics that relate to the conservation of wildlife and the ecosystems on which they depend.

On November 20, President Obama announced his intention to execute an Executive Order potentially offering deferred deportation for nearly five million illegal immigrants. Since that time, opposing forces have challenged the constitutionality of such actions. Perhaps the most significant challenge is a federal lawsuit filed by nearly 20 states. In it, they allege violations of Article 2 Section 3 of the U.S. Constitution as well as the Administrative Procedure Act. On this episode of Lawyer 2 Lawyer, host J. Craig Williams interviews former United States Senator Byron Dorgan and current New Mexico State Senator Steven Neville. Also participating by pre-recorded interview is current Texas State Senator Jose Rodriguez. Together, they discuss the constitutionality of President Obama's recent actions on immigration as well as the viability of the federal suit filed by the various states.
