The Supreme Court handed a win to President Donald Trump's Department of Government Efficiency on Friday, granting the efficiency unit access to records at the Social Security Administration. The unsigned opinion provides the Elon Musk-associated DOGE with even more access to sensitive government information to fulfill its mission of making government more efficient. Just last month, the team also gained access to payment systems at the Department of Treasury. The ruling also comes at an awkward time for the DOGE, as Musk — its creator — and Trump are in the midst of an apparent falling out on social media. Per the decision, a majority of the justices voted to grant the administration's request to stay a lower court decision and concluded that “SSA may proceed to afford members of the SSA DOGE Team access to the agency records in question in order for those members to do their work.” Justices voted on political lines, with liberals Elena Kagan, Ketanji Brown Jackson and Sonia Sotomayor saying they would have denied the government's application for a stay. Simultaneously on Friday, the Supreme Court handed a second win to the DOGE, shielding it from producing documents as part of a discovery process in a Freedom of Information Act lawsuit. More federal workers would have access to artificial intelligence training under a bill reintroduced in the House on Thursday by Rep. Nancy Mace. The AI Training Extension Act of 2025 aims to expand the Artificial Intelligence Training for the Acquisition Workforce Act, which was signed into law by President Joe Biden in 2022, by offering available AI training to more pools of federal employees beyond the acquisition workforce, including “supervisors, managers, and frontline staff in data and technology roles,” according to a release from the South Carolina Republican's office. Chair of the House Oversight Subcommittee on Cybersecurity, Information Technology, and Government Innovation, Mace previously introduced the bill in 2023 during the 118th Congress with Rep. Gerry Connolly, D-Va., who passed away last month. Rep. Shontel Brown, D-Ohio, is a co-sponsor of the reintroduced bill. The Daily Scoop Podcast is available every Monday-Friday afternoon.

Former President Donald Trump cleaned up in the South Carolina Republican primary last Saturday, winning 60 percent of the votes to Nikki Haley's 40 percent, in spite of the fact that the battle played out in Haley's home state. For her part, Haley says she's still not dropping out.The race now heads to Michigan which holds its Presidential primary on Tuesday. The results could demonstrate how much support President Biden maintains among a key demographic in the state: Muslim and Arab American voters. Many of these voters pledge to vote “uncommitted” as part of the Listen to Michigan campaign, a statewide effort aimed at pressuring the president to take action to prevent the death of thousands more people in Palestine.And in headlines: Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy said 31,000 of his country's soldiers have died since the start of Russia's invasion, the former head of the NRA was found liable in a massive corruption lawsuit, and what happened at the Screen Actors Guild and Independent Spirit Awards.Show Notes:Listen To Michigan campaign – https://www.listentomichigan.com/What A Day – YouTube – https://www.youtube.com/@whatadaypodcastFollow us on Instagram – https://www.instagram.com/crookedmedia/For a transcript of this episode, please visit crooked.com/whataday

Donald Trump came away with more than a win in the South Carolina Republican presidential primary; he also came away with a big question mark. Some polls had Trump up by more than 35 points but he only ended up beating Nikki Haley by 20 points. Yes, she lost in her home state, but she also took about 40% of the vote. One analyst says it indicates that primary voters don't like Trump. More fallout after the South Carolina primary: The money tree is drying up for Nikki Haley. The network associated with billionaire Charles Koch won't be putting its cash toward Haley and will instead focus on key Senate and House races where they say they may have more of an impact. Our favorite Britisher. Anthony Davis (MeidasTouch Media Network and 5 Minute News Podcast), will be on at top of the show to talk about it all. True Crime Corner is open for business. Courtney will join us with her story of the week. Karen Dawn pops in to show some love for the animals.

[SEGMENT 1-1] The SC Primary SC is over and what's changed for Republicans? Nothing. Donald Trump has won the South Carolina Republican presidential primary, CNN projects, defeating Nikki Haley on her home turf as he completed his sweep of the early voting states. Already the prohibitive favorite to claim his third straight nomination, the former president's victory in the Palmetto State, where Haley was twice elected governor, has all but ended the race — even as Haley insists that she will keep battling at least into next month. Trump's dominance in South Carolina was hardly surprising. The state is among the most conservative in the country and has backed the former president every time he's been on the ballot. According to a CNN exit poll of primary voters, more than 4 in 10 described themselves as being affiliated with the MAGA movement, while roughly 8 in 10 described themselves as conservative. Only a third of respondents acknowledged President Joe Biden as the rightful winner of the 2020 election. Biden and Trump both pivoted to the general election campaign weeks ago, but Haley's decision to play out the race has been gnawing at the former president, who is positioning himself to close his grip on the GOP political apparatus. While the result in South Carolina was never really in doubt — most polls showed Trump with a 25- to 30-point lead — there are still a few outstanding details. Chief among them: How many delegates can Haley win? South Carolina gives most of its plunder to the statewide winner but also doles out delegates to the winner in each of its seven congressional districts. CNN projected late Saturday night that Haley will win the state's 1st Congressional District and its three delegates. [SEGMENT 1-2] The SC Primary 2 It's official. We can refer to Nikki Haley as Nikki "Who-ly", as in "Remind me...who is she?" Trump as the Republican nominee has been a foregone conclusion since the Coup of 2020. Trump performed amazingly as president and deserved his second term. The Republican establishment partnered with Democrats to defeat him. And their continued efforts to destroy Trump and his family led to Trump's resurgence. Oh the irony. Nikki Haley and others were sanctioned to take Trump out. I commented many times that the Uniparty hoped that the sheer volume of people going against Trump would be enough to take him out. DeSantis, Haley, Christi, Hutchison, and others. Former governors, Senators, Attorneys Generals, and Trump staffers were cajoled into making Trump look bad. The idea was "Look at all these formidable people running against Trump". The "field" never had a majority, and the most votes any of them got when they ran collectively was around 20 percent. South Carolina put the nail in the coffin for the RINO faction of the Republican Party. What is the makeup of the Republican Party? According to a CNN exit poll of primary voters, more than 4 in 10 described themselves as being affiliated with the MAGA movement. Forty percent MAGA. The exit poll doesn't tell the whole story, since 80 percent of people polled described themselves as conservative. Consider that 80 percent of the people don't think of themselves as Republicans. Put another way, MAGA is double the size of Republicans. I consider the 80 percent conservatives as ReTrumplicans. And while some may not like Trump's style, the love his results. Another poll question had to do with Biden. Only a third of respondents acknowledged Joe Biden as the rightful winner of the 2020 election. So calling ReTrumplicans "election deniers" isn't doing the party any harm. The majority of Republican voters believe that Democrats stole the elections. What next for Trump? Undoubtedly, Trump has ground to make up. But his ground is smoother than the Democrats. How many of "Who-ly'" 39 percent can he garner? I say most of it. However, before we get into that, let's look at the one-third of voters who believe Biden won. How will the "free and fair election" thinking shift over the next few months as more Democrat skullduggery gets revealed? Trump remains defiant about the big cheat, something that irks the Democrats. Part of destroying Trump meant destroying the idea of a tainted election. But Trump has held firm and his stature has grown. Thus, as the myth of a fair election dissipates, more of those voters will move to Trump. One thing is for sure, election deniers have been growing since Democrats started this lie. Look back at the polls right after the election, and Democrats did a decent job of convincing people that Biden won fair and square. However, those numbers have steadily dropped over three years. How many more people will see the light between now and election time? [SEGMENT 1-3] More on Plan B… Not long ago a report asked Biden about Plan B. The media sense that Biden is toast, no matter how some of them present the man. The house of cards is about to fall down, so what is Plan B? [X] SB – Man speaks of life in CA under Newsom Most popular state to LEAVE 170 years population increased, until Newsom declined every year over last 4 years Led the nation in U-Haul rentals Highest taxes, highest poverty rates Gas prices, worst roads Flood emergencies and drought emergencies Spend more on homelessness, most homeless Most lockdowns, worst public health outcomes Education, worst education outcomes Sacrifice the most, put get the least $68B deficit [SEGMENT 1-4] SC Primary 3 What of the perception of Biden? He has been painted as "Average Joe"; trustworthy and honest. Do you think this is how people will think of the Bidens in the next 60 days? Jim Biden has already recanted his testimony about his big brother, aka "the big guy". And that recanting by the FBI agent changed nobody's mind about the Biden family grift. They can't make 20 LLCs, 170 suspicious activity reports, and million of dollars Joe Biden said they never got go away. The hurdle Trump must jump is people don't like him? That's what they said about him in 2016. Then in 2020 he managed to win over millions more voters than in his previous election. With the current witch hunts by the embattled Fani Willis, and soon to be embattled Judge Engoron, Letitia James, and Alvin Bragg, how do you think things will look for Trump by election time? Democrats have bet their strategy on a Trump conviction, even if it's jaywalking. And while the media touts polls that show people declining to vote for Trump if he's convicted, that narrative is a ruse. As CNN reported, Still, Trump saw hefty advantages with other demographics, according to the exit polls. Primary voters thought he was more electable in November than Haley by a 23-point margin, and more voters said he has the physical and mental health needed to serve effectively as president than Haley. Overall, he also demonstrated more loyalty among his voters at the same time that the exit polls hinted at how he can motivate his critics. Ninety-three percent of Trump voters said they mainly voted for their candidate, rather than against his opponent. Among Haley voters, 58% mainly supported her -- and 40% voted mainly to oppose Trump. Telling numbers, particularly the last datapoints. Ninety-three percent of Trump voters voted FOR Trump. Only 58 percent voted for Haley. Trump has without a doubt the most loyal supporters of any candidate, running or planning to run. And that base grows each time he defeats a challenger. Trump can lose part of the Republican Party and comfortably defeat Biden or anyone else. Have you seen polling of Trump vs Michelle Obama? Google it; I dare you. Recently there appeared Trump versus Newsom poll and it wasn't good news for Newsom. And what of Trump versus Harris? Not good news for Harris, though surprisingly she did better than Newsom. Anybody think Democrat want to share the results of these polls. Trump will heal the Republican Party, even if it means dragging McConnell around by a dog leash. But major roadblocks lie ahead for the Democrats. Headwinds they knowingly sailed into. Nikki Haley was never a factor against Trump. Just more Leftist propaganda to get real Republicans' eyes off the ball. Another fail by the Left and a nail in the RINO Deep State coffin.

Live—from the campus of Hillsdale College in beautiful Hillsdale Michigan— this is Scot Bertram in for Steve on the Steve Gruber Show for   –Monday February 26th 2024—   —Here are 3 big things you need to know—   One —  Two congressmen are trying to get a bi-partisan border security and foreign aid bill onto the House floor.  Republican Congressman Brian Fitzpatrick of Pennsylvania and Democratic Congressman Jared Golden of Maine said on CBS' Face the Nation they believe their bill can get the necessary 218 votes in the House.  They also stressed the urgency to provide aid to Ukraine after a city fell to Russia last week.   Two—  The Michigan Department of Health and Human Services is confirming a child in Oakland County has the first case of measles in the state since 2019. The child's case is linked to international travel and officials say no one outside of the home is believed to have been exposed.    And number three — Nikki Haley says she's still in it to win it - or at least to give GOP voters an option other than former President Trump.  Haley lost to Trump in Saturday's South Carolina Republican primary, the state where she served as president.  Haley told supporters that she's "a woman of her word," and will continue campaigning for the White House.  

This week Open Sources Guelph is dealing bad news. What else is new? From critics silenced to cities under siege, we're reminded that there's a world full of danger and destruction out there, which are two things that are closely associated with a specific man who was once President of the United States, and might be again. Meanwhile, closer to home, an old man is almost literally yelling at clouds. This Thursday, February 22, at 5 pm, Scotty Hertz and Adam A. Donaldson will discuss: Alexei. They finally did it. After years of trying, Vladimir Putin and his appendages in the Russian state were finally able to eliminate his biggest critic, Alexei Navalny. The lawyer-turned-agitator "died suddenly" in one of the worst prison in all of Russian, and coincidentally just a few week ahead of a national election and the second anniversary of the Ukraine invasion. So where does Russia go now? Rafah. The next front in Israel's war against Hamas seems to be the city of Rafah, but as the IDF are promising to launch their campaign just before the start of the holy month of Ramadan, the Israeli government is facing for blowback from the international community who are calling for a ceasefire and the resumption of humanitarian aid in Gaza. Nearly five months into this war, is there any chance that Israel will listen? Oh Carolina! This weekend is the South Carolina Republican primary, and it's widely expected that Donald Trump will win. It will be just about the only winning that Trump's experienced recently after being told he doesn't have total immunity, he has to pay $364 million in fines for the way he did business in New York, and there are still so many court cases to go. So why does Trump look unbeatable? They Call Me Mr. Tibbits. So the head of Conestoga College called his colleague from Sault College a "whore" last week in an actual interview with the press. Tibbits, along with many Ontario college leaders, has been on the defensive for the drastic increase in the number of international students enrolled, but is this ad hominem attack a sign of the stress getting to Tibbits, or is just a sign he should retire? Open Sources is live on CFRU 93.3 fm and cfru.ca at 5 pm on Thursday.

It's Monday, February 26th, A.D. 2024.  This is The Worldview heard at www.TheWorldview.com.  I'm Adam McManus.  (Adam@TheWorldview.com) By Adam McManus Nigerian Muslims kill 23 in 3-day string of attacks From February 16th to February 19th, suspected Islamic terrorists in Nigeria killed 23 people, injured 10, kidnapped five, and set ablaze 28 houses across multiple villages, reports International Christian Concern. It is unknown if these are coordinated attacks or if the same terrorists are committing each attack in the area.  Audu Tanko said, “There is tension now in my village. We are killed because of our faith in Jesus.” Luke 11:49-51 says, “God in His wisdom said, ‘I will send them prophets and apostles, some of whom they will kill and others they will persecute.' Therefore, this generation will be held responsible for the blood of all the prophets that has been shed since the beginning of the world, from the blood of Abel to the blood of Zechariah, who was killed between the altar and the sanctuary. Yes, I tell you, this generation will be held responsible for it all.” Trump wallops Haley in South Carolina On Saturday, Donald Trump cruised to victory in the South Carolina Republican primary. He had received 59.7% of the vote over former South Carolina Governor Nikki Haley with 39.5% of the vote, reported Fox News. TRUMP: “This was a little sooner than we anticipated. (cheers) It was an even bigger win than we anticipated. (cheers)  And I was just informed that we got double the number of votes that has ever been received in the great state of South Carolina. So, that's pretty good. (cheers) “I just want to say that I have never seen the Republican Party so unified as it is right now. (cheers) “We're going to be up here on November 5th, and we're gonna look at Joe Biden and we're gonna look him right in the eye. He's destroying our country. And we're gonna say, ‘Joe you're fired. Get out! Get out Joe. You're fired.'” (cheers) South Carolina Governor Henry McMaster said this. McMASTER: “I would like you all to remember this moment, that you were here. This is a great moment in American history. We will probably never see another one like it. Every time a rocket launches you know it goes up slow and it is climbing and climbing and then boom, that next stage comes off and it goes. Well, we just did that. We just hit maximum velocity! We going all the way!” (cheers) And South Carolina Senator Lindsey Graham spoke at Trump's victory as well. GRAHAM: “America, the nightmare (cheers) you're facing is just about over. Help is on the way. (cheers) This is the most qualified man to be president United States. (cheers) And let it be said that South Carolina created the biggest political comeback in American history!” Nikki Haley vows to continue Former South Carolina Governor Nikki Haley received an unusual introduction after having lost the primary in her home state. ANNOUNCER: “Ladies and gentlemen, please welcome the next President of the United States, Nikki Haley.” She congratulated the victor. HALEY: “I want to congratulate Donald Trump on his victory and I want to thank the people of South Carolina for using the power of your voice. … I feel blessed tonight. I've felt blessed through this entire journey, even when it's been tough. I haven't lost sight of that. I've felt God's strength and grace every step of the way.” Haley described what she believed was the underlying message. HALEY: “It's a blessing to know that across our sweet state everyone wants to bring back the America we know and love. (cheers) That's the underlying message of what happened today.” But she doesn't think that Biden nor Trump is the answer. HALEY: “We can't afford four more years of Biden's failures or Trump's lack of focus. (cheers)  Does anyone seriously think Joe Biden or Donald Trump will unite our country to solve our problems? One of them calls his fellow Americans fascists. The other calls his fellow Americans vermin. They aren't fighting for our country's future. Their demanding we fight each other. The younger generation, my children's generation, knows it better than anyone. They deserve better. They deserve leadership.” (cheers) Despite receiving a trouncing in her home state, Haley vowed to stay in the race. HALEY: “I said earlier this week that no matter what happens in South Carolina, I would continue to run for president. (cheers) I'm a woman of my word. (cheers) I'm not giving up this fight when a majority of Americans disapprove of both Donald Trump and Joe Biden. (cheers) South Carolina has spoken. We're the fourth state to do so. In the next 10 days, another 21 states and territories will speak. They have the right to a real choice.” Biology professor fired for teaching chromosomes determine sex reinstated And finally, a Texas college has reinstated a professor who was fired for teaching about the traditional, biological definition of gender, reports The Christian Post.  Genesis 1:27 says, “So God created man in His own image, in the image of God He created him; male and female He created them.” In a statement published Tuesday, the Christian law firm First Liberty Institute announced that Johnson Varkey, a St. Philip's College adjunct professor, has been reinstated after he was fired in January 2023 for rejecting aspects of homosexual and transgender ideology. The law firm filed a charge of discrimination with the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission after the San Antonio, Texas-based historically black community college fired Varkey because the biology professor told his students that sex is determined by an individual's chromosomes.  In a letter to St. Philip's College last summer, First Liberty Institute complained to administrators that Varkey's termination violated the Free Exercise and Free Speech Clauses of the First Amendment to the U.S. Constitution as well as Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 and the Texas Religious Freedom Restoration Act.  The settlement reached Tuesday will enable Varkey to return to the classroom by the fall semester of the 2024-2025 academic year.   Close And that's The Worldview on this Monday, February 26th in the year of our Lord 2024. Subscribe by iTunes or email to our unique Christian newscast at www.TheWorldview.com.

The South Carolina Republican primary is tomorrow. Former President Donald Trump is favored to win, but the contest will test how much appetite remains for a different Republican nominee. And how Republicans are reacting to last week's Alabama Supreme Court ruling that embryos created through IVF, are children under a state law. This episode: political correspondent Susan Davis, presidential campaign correspondent Sarah McCammon, presidential campaign reporter Stephen Fowler, and White House correspondent Asma Khalid.

It's Friday, so it's time for “The Campaign Moment” – a new weekly roundtable conversation to help you keep track of the biggest political news in this campaign year. Senior political reporter Aaron Blake, who writes The Post's new newsletter by the same name, and senior national political correspondent Ashley Parker sit down with Martine Powers to discuss the expectations for this weekend's South Carolina Republican presidential primary, the chatter on who is on former president Donald Trump's list of potential running mates and the latest in the Republican House-led impeachment inquiry of President Biden.

Just two days until the South Carolina Republican primary, Donald Trump remains well ahead of Nikki Haley, who's vowed to remain in the race for the GOP nomination. Meanwhile, the Alabama Supreme Court's controversial ruling that frozen embryos are considered children is quickly becoming a political issue, and threatens GOP efforts to win over voters in November. Plus House Republicans turn their attention to the annual CPAC conference, even as a government shutdown could be just weeks away. Peter Baker, Carol Lee, Joyce Vance, Tom Winter, Zooey Zephyr, Mike Murphy, Robert Gibbs, and Simon Shuster break it down.

President Biden announced hundreds of new sanctions on Russia on the eve of the 2nd anniversary of its invasion of Ukraine. The much anticipated South Carolina Republican primary takes place tomorrow. And the Vatican Museums presented an exhibition to commemorate the tragic bombing by US forces in 1944.

With three days to go the South Carolina Republican primary, Nikki Haley is rejecting calls to drop out of the race for the 2024 nomination. Haley vows to stay in the race "until the last person votes." Meanwhile, Joe Biden threatens new U.S. sanctions against Russia in response to the death of opposition leader, Alexei Navalny. Plus White House national security spokesman John Kirby says sanctions will work to hold Russia accountable for invading Ukraine. And, how the ultra-rich convert their wealth into power. Vaughn Hillyard, Tristan Snell, Matthew Dowd, William Taylor, Juanita Tolliver, Natasha Korecki, and Bill Cohan break it all down.

Nikki Haley is sharpening her attacks towards Donald Trump with only four days left until the South Carolina Republican primary. Plus, new protests are erupting after the death of Vladimir Putin's most vocal critic, Alexei Navalny, as his widow and mother speak out. Also, the Kelce brothers are pledging support for the victims of the Kansas City Chiefs parade shooting. And, Vicky Nguyen shares what you need to know about the growing popularity of weight loss drugs with kids and teens.

YOU DECIDE 2024 coverage continues, as the White House looks at possible sanctions against Russia following the death of Putin antagonist Alexie Navalny last weekend. Additionally, President Biden is using the bully pulpit to apply pressure on Congress to pass foreign aid funding for Ukraine et.al., while Congress is on hiatus until February 28. And finally, the South Carolina Republican primary is this weekend, with Trump and Haley both making campaign pushes leading into the weekend.

AP correspondent Ed Donahue reports the stakes are rising for Nikki Haley in the days before the South Carolina Republican presidential primary.

It's Friday, February 16th, A.D. 2024.  This is The Worldview in 5 Minutes heard at www.TheWorldview.com.  I'm Adam McManus.  (Adam@TheWorldview.com) By Adam McManus Pakistani Muslims shoot up, throw fuel bombs on Christian village On Monday, February 12th, more than twenty Pakistani Muslims fired gunshots and threw fuel bombs at the homes of Christians in a village at 2:00 a.m., reports Morning Star News. They were angry with the Christians for two reasons. First, the believers supported an opposing political party in the February 8th election. And second, Christians are constructing a church building. Providentially, no one was killed or injured in the attacks in Punjab Province led by Imran Yousaf.  Bishop Abraham Daniel of Sahiwal Baptist Church said more than 100 Christian families live in this village. Psalm 23:4 says, “Even though I walk through the darkest valley, I will fear no evil, for You are with me; Your rod and staff, they comfort me.” The timely arrival of police forced the Muslim assailants to flee, keeping them from harming the Christians. However, no arrests have been made. Pakistan is ranked seventh on the Open Doors' World Watch List of the most difficult countries to be a Christian. Nikki Haley: “Donald Trump cannot win a general election.” Appearing on Fox News with John Roberts, former South Carolina Governor Nikki Haley dismissed polls showing her trailing former President Donald Trump by 35 points in next week's South Carolina Republican presidential primary, reports RealClearPolitics.com. Listen. ROBERTS: “We're just a little more than a week away from South Carolina. At the moment, it looks like you're going to go into that contest and lose badly in your home state, which would forever be a cloud over your political career. Why go through with it?” HALEY: So, first of all, that's what they said before New Hampshire, and I got 43 percent of the vote. Our polls do not show that. That is not what we're seeing, and we're going to close that gap. But, more than that, you're asking me about my political career. That's the problem with politics. Donald Trump's worried about his image. Joe Biden's worried about his image. I'm not worried about mine. I'm worried about the future of America. I'm worried about my kids and what country they grow up in. “Don't complain about what happens in a general election if you don't play in this primary because Donald Trump cannot win a general election. He's already said he's going to spend more time in court than on the campaign trail. He spent $50 million of campaign contributions towards his personal court cases. The RNC is broke. “Republicans will not win if you continue down this path. The reason Donald Trump wants me to get out so badly is because he wants help paying his court fees. That is not the job of the RNC. That's not the job of taxpayers.” Three updates on Kansas City Chiefs' parade shooting Three updates now on the shooting during the Kansas City Chiefs' victory parade on Wednesday which left one dead and 20-plus wounded. First, the shooting was the result of a "personal dispute" between several people in the crowd.  Two of the three suspects arrested were juveniles. No one has been charged in relation to the incident as of yet, reports The Mirror. Second, eight of the victims hospitalized are in critical condition, and seven of them are in serious condition. Third, the person who was shot and killed was a 43-year-old radio DJ named Elizabeth Galvan. who was known locally as Lisa Lopez-Galvan.  She hosted the show “Taste of Tejano.” Inflation up On Tuesday, the Labor Department reported that inflation rose more than expected last month. In January, the consumer price index rose 0.3%. On an annual basis, that's a 3.1% increase, only slightly down 3.4% in December. Much of the inflation increase came from housing prices. Quincy Krosby at LPL Financial noted, “The much-anticipated [consumer price index] report is a disappointment for those who expected inflation to edge lower, allowing the Fed to begin easing rates sooner rather than later.” Register for Family Reformation conference in Branson, Missouri Kevin Swanson, founder of Generations, will be one of the keynote speakers at The Family Reformation Conference on Thursday, April 11th through Saturday, April 13th at Friendly Baptist Church in Branson, Missouri. Come join like-minded families from all over the country and hear solid, biblical teaching from others as well including Scott Brown, Kirk Smith, Israel Wayne, David Reece, and Jim Orrick. This year they're focusing on growing "deep roots" in Christ through His word that builds a multi-generational faithfulness. Psalm 78:5-7 says, “God decreed statutes for Jacob and established the law in Israel, which He commanded our ancestors to teach their children, so the next generation would know them, even the children yet to be born, and they in turn would tell their children. Then, they would put their trust in God and would not forget His deeds, but would keep His commands.” For more information, call Kristi Wilbanks at 417-459-9318 or email thefamilyreformationconference@protonmail.com Three simple exercises can cut Alzheimer's risk by almost 50% And finally, pharmacist Mark Burdon reveals three simple exercises that can keep the brain sharp into old age: Swimming, gardening, and walking, reports Great Britain News. Swimming is a low-impact exercise that can help to delay dementia by activating the “cold-shock” protein (RBM3), which a 2015 study on mice showed offered protection against the onset of dementia. One study suggests that daily gardening may lower the risk of dementia by 36 percent. Engaging in activities that stimulate the brain reduces the risk of Alzheimer's as much as physical activity. And if you walk 9,800 steps per day, or about five miles, you will be 51 percent less likely to develop dementia. That's what a study of 78,000 healthy people between the ages 40 to 79 discovered. People who walked just 3,800 steps per day, or about two miles, were about 25 percent less likely to develop dementia. In 1 Corinthians 6:19-20, the Apostle Paul asks, “Do you not know that your bodies are temples of the Holy Spirit, Who is in you, Whom you have received from God? You are not your own; you were bought at a price. Therefore, honor God with your bodies.” Close And that's The Worldview in 5 Minutes on this Friday, February 16th in the year of our Lord 2024.

How much influence does Taylor Swift actually have? Would her endorsement in a presidential election move voters? Has her presence at NFL games already created new fans among young women? Some have used polling to suggest it has, so in this installment of the 538 Politics podcast, we ask "good or bad use of polling?" The crew also looks at some of the minor primary contests between now and the South Carolina Republican presidential primary and spotlights the biggest takeaways from last quarter's campaign fundraising numbers.

On today's episode of The Atlanta Journal-Constitution's "Politically Georgia" representatives of the secretary of state's office to talk about the battles Brad Raffensperger is fighting on two fronts. The Legislature is making a second effort to give the State Election Board the responsibility to oversee the operations of the secretary of state's office in managing elections. And the office is now in federal court defending itself in a lawsuit filed by a liberal voting rights group that alleges the state's Dominion voting machines are vulnerable to hacking.    Then, the South Carolina Democratic presidential primary is sneaking up on most political observers. It will take place in a little more than one week. Meanwhile, Nikki Haley is doing her best to goad Donald Trump into revealing the worst aspects of his character as the South Carolina Republican primary campaign gets underway. AJC Savannah bureau chief Adam Van Brimmer joins the conversation.     Plus, the state Senate appears set to pass a bill defining antisemitism. The measure would make it easier to punish antisemitic acts under Georgia's hate crimes law.    Links to today's topics:  Bill would allow investigations of Raffensperger  Witness in federal trial shows how voting machines can be hacked   Haley pins hopes on home state primary  Trump warns Haley donors to stop funding Haley  Senate revives antisemitism bill  Have a question for the show?

Join Amanda Seales in the latest episode of The Amanda Seales Show on November 15, 2023, as she navigates through the peculiarities of the day, including the unexpected celebration of National Raisin Bran Cereal Day. Amanda reflects on the approaching Thanksgiving and dives into the surprising return of Dr. Jill Stein to the presidential arena. Legal matters take the spotlight as a judge rules on the admissibility of Young Thug's lyrics in court, provoking a broader conversation. The 60 Second Headlines touch on diverse topics, from Sen. Tim Scott suspending his presidential campaign to Snoop Dogg launching Death Row Games. The show introduces the new segment "Am I Trippin," offering advice on life's dilemmas. Plus, a Big Up/Let Down involving André 3000's unexpected move into flute-playing. The episode wraps up with phone calls, quizzes, and laughter. Tune in for the latest insights, laughs, and Amanda's unique perspective! FOLLOW ALONG AS WE COVER:   (4:19) - Jill Stein announced that she would seek the Green Party nomination for the second time. Stein's case for her candidacy, as she tells it, is to “offer a choice for the people outside the failed two-party system.” Stein's abrupt relaunch into presidential politics comes weeks after Cornel West, a leading academic and progressive activist, decided to run as an independent after formerly campaigning with the Green Party.   (8:47) - Judge Ural Granville granted prosecutors the right to present a collective of Young Thug's rap lyrics in the trial against him and his YSL (Young Slime Life) associates amid their controversial RICO case. While Young Thug's defense team assured that the singles were only done in an artistically-driven manner, the court settled unfavorably, reportedly citing that their stance was “ridiculous.” Rapper Meek Mill said: “Locking us [up] for rapping got me scared to do [an] interview. Free Jeff. Free Lucci.”   (14:30) – 60 Second Headlines   STORY 1: Sen. Tim Scott has announced that he is suspending his presidential campaign, which failed to meet high expectations that the South Carolina Republican would at least go deep into the primary season.   STORY 2: Snoop Dogg and his son, Cordell Broadus, have launched Death Row Games. The startup was created in support of minority creatives to help them design, develop, and publish content.   STORY 3: Chicago Mayor Brandon Johnson has announced the launch of a new subcommittee that will allocate $500,000 of the city's 2024 budget to study reparations…for those who are the descendants of enslaved African Americans.   STORY 4: Lil Wayne has just become an investor and strategic advisor of the professional Pickleball Team, The Texas Ranchers.   STORY 5: JASON LEE, the Founder of Hollywood Unlocked is officially running for Stockton City Council District 6 [South Stockton]   (17:15) - Now it's time for Bringing Up Old Ish, with Conscious Lee. Dr. Calvin Lee and the Trick of Time   (21:59) - Coming up this hour…. Our new segment, Am I Trippin'... I'm pretty good at giving advice, and I've got some for you today. Hey ya!!! The Big Up Let Down involves an André 3000 and a flute.   (24:56) - Am I Trippin? Every day we all have those moments that make us double take, scratch our chins, and ask ourselves, am I trippin? Well, when you do, send us a DM @SealesSaidIt and tell us about your dilemma, and I'll weigh in on whether you're tripping like Ella Mai or somebody playing in your face. TODAY'S DILEMMA: My best friend has been dating this guy for about 6-7 months now, and it's been clear that she isn't into him like he's into her. He's not a bad guy or anything, but from what she says, he's just not keeping her attention. I think it's partially because her ex spun the block recently to holla, but that's a whole other story. Anyways, she decided to just break up with her current boyfriend about 2 weeks ago, and I ran into him at a mutual friend's party. He was clearly still upset and literally was crying on the balcony asking if there was anything I could do to help him save the relationship. I do feel bad for him, but I'm not trying to be in my friend's relationship drama. Am I right for staying out of it, or am I tripping?   (26:30) - It's The Amanda Seales Show… I'm Amanda Seales… Last break we introduced a new segment called “Am I Trippin?” where I weigh in on the dilemmas that have you conflicted. Today's question came in anonymously from a friend conflicted on whether they should get involved with their best friend's relationship after her ex was asking for help getting back together. They don't want to but feel bad for the guy. Here are my thoughts:   (29:17) - Big Up - shout out to André 3000! Announced a debut solo album titled “New Blue Sun". A couple of titles of tracks on the album: Dreams Once Buried Beneath The Dungeon Floor Slowly Sprout Into Undying Gardens; That Night In Hawaii When I Turned Into A Panther And Started Making These Low Register Purring Tones That I Couldn't Control ... S*** Was Wild. On this album, he is reintroducing himself as a flutist. Let Down - WAIT WHAT?! HE'S PLAYING FLUTE AND NOT RAPPING?! I CHANGED MY MIND; THIS IS A LET DOWN.   (34:05) - Our phone lines are open, 24/7 at 855-AMANDA-8. That's 855-262-6328! I always like to hear from you. So call me!   (37:45) - Coming up this hour…. Why you bringing up old ish; That's not my ministry with Rita Brent; Professor Supreme will join us with a Blop Quiz. Issa Black Pop Quiz, what it is.   (42:15) - That's Not My Ministry with Rita Brent   (44:26) - Professor Supreme will join us for a Blop Quiz.   (48:25) - Let's go to the phones.. 1-855-262-6328.   (51:56) - It's time to listen, laugh, and learn… I have the word for the day…. And the word of the day is… SUFFUSE (Verb) To suffuse something is to spread over it or fill it. Either literally or figuratively.   (54:16) - Politicians say the darnedest things.

U.S. Senator Tim Scott isn't backing down from his criticism of fellow GOP presidential candidate Gov. Ron DeSantis over his state's proposed guidelines for teaching slavery. The South Carolina Republican called the controversy a “hot mess that isn't necessary” during a podcast interview with NHJournal.Hosted by NHJournal Managing Editor Michael Graham.

U.S. Senator Lindsay Graham met last Friday with Ukrainian President Zelensky. A widely circulated video showed the South Carolina Republican senator saying that Russians are dying in Ukraine and supporting the Ukraine war is the best money ever spent by the US government. Senator Graham claims the video was edited. His alleged comments created an uproar in Russia. The country's interior ministry, similar to America's homeland security agency, issued an arrest war for Sen. Graham. A warrant for his arrest is the least of Mr. Graham's worries. Some high level Russians have hinted that the South Carolina Republican senator should be assassinated. Rick Wiles, Doc Burkhart.

World War 3 was elevated to a new level today. The International Criminal Court issued an arrest warrant for Russian President Vladimir Putin. Russia's former president Dmitry Medvedev referred to the arrest warrant as toilet paper. And Mr. Medvedev issued a veiled threat against US Senator Lindsay Graham that the South Carolina Republican could be killed in a plane crash.Tune in as your TruNews team is ready to give you the most complete report anywhere on World War 3 and the reason for it, the implosion of the Western financial system.

Vol. 3 episode 23Greetings!Well, per usual, Elisabeth nailed a prediction…she said that as we began recording this on Groundhog Day, in reference to the Bill Murray movie that puts his life on perpetual repeat, we would end up recording, editing, recording, editing, until we finally learned our lesson…Well, nearly 25 hours later, the lesson learned is how to engage constructively with Saturn's energy of streamlining, seriousness, hard work, and focus. Because the result is…excellence!And so, at last…Here is your first weekly episode in news from the Ensouled Universe!In it, Elisabeth and I discuss charts making news, including why Florida Republican governor, Ron DeSantis is making authoritarian moves now and how the media is, per usual missing the point about why and how. We give you the heads up about potential shocks and disruptions that could likely occur over this weekend, we answer why Kamala Harris has “disappeared”, and the likely trajectory of former South Carolina Republican governor, Nikki Haley's anticipated bid for US president.This episode's Department of They (as in, “they say”…who are they and why should we trust them?) is mighty fine. We dissect recent the New York Times and other media outlets' poor showing when it comes to pointing out how we've been here before when it comes to horrible events in human history, and how that harms us as citizens, while fattening the pockets of the They who Say things that might or might be true…or at least are only partially true.The astrology of economic theory? We also venture an explainer into the history of something fundamental to economic policy in this country by looking at the astrology of the…wait for it…Federal Trade Commission. How to make that segment interesting and entertaining is primarily what took us so long to get this out to you (that, and the audio editing software crashing per the Uranus/Sun square we warn you about), but we are proud of the outcome, well, because – astrology is amazing. There was so much the stars suggested we could say, but we narrowed it down to bite-sized fundamentals that will empower you with context for what surely will be more news to come about the shifting fortunes of Big Business and American standards of living.If you have a noncompete clause with your employer, you especially will want to listen to this episode. If you don't, then you will enjoy learning about the way astrology signals we are headed into some seismic shifts in how labor and Big Business are about to play in the sandbox together.Think coming shifts in the plantary patterns of Pluto, Saturn, and Uranus…all outer planets (even if astronomers have kicked Pluto out of the official planetary line-up), and how they will be speaking in fresh tones of Aquarius (power to the people, but also innovations in technology), Pisces (universal love and forgiveness), and Taurus (status quo, but also comfort). We break it down, just as we will continue to do so through the year.You are the mediaMost of all in this episode, we remind you that you are the media. You are the one in control of your mind, your actions, your life. And indeed, the game of politics is one of control, and pretty much every flavor of corporate media collectively is a weapon, an agent of mass destruction because it is an agent of mass enchantment. It casts a spell over us, separating us from our native powers of discernment.Elisabeth and I are confident you can disarm those spellcasters who seek to use that weapon against you – Off the Charts is our way of helping you learn how.We are still tinkering with the format, but thanks to the growth of our audience that includes you, a loyal listener, and also thanks to the meaningful feedback you have been sending us, we think we have something mighty fine with this podcast and are seeking to expand, even if it takes us a minute, or two.Groundbreaking news deliveryIs it too bold to suggest that we see ourselves delivering news from the Ensouled Universe as akin to how Jon Stewart's The Daily Show revolutionized news by making fun of it, and thus actually getting people to take it seriously? Nah, not too bold. We have lots in mind for how we can expand, including interviews with newsmakers, more frequent forecasts, and more in-depth analysis, among many other ideas…But it's only possible with your support. To that end, we are running a special on annual subscriptions. If you've been thinking of going all in with us, now is the time! Until March 7, when Saturn enters Pisces, you can get an annual subscription for 25% off the usual $75.We had to cut scads and scads if we were going to keep this episode to about an hour, which we think is more than plenty. We will use the remaining goodies as incentives for you to become a patron subscriber if you're not already. As an incentive…Later this week — for patron subscribers only — we will release the audio we cut from this episode, on what we think about heard-on-the-street rumors that DeSantis is gay, and the implications about that vis-à-vis sexuality and politics. We also cut some banter about recent news to do with a certain former president and a certain former “adult film” actress, and also possibly a rant about why men make so much noise in this country.And because some of you who are already subscribers have asked how you can add more to your pledges of support, I am investigating how we might include a one-time donation in our show notes.Of course, you can always visit Elisabeth's forecast and leave a little something in her tip jar, since it is her forecast on which this fab podcast is based.Also, if you're interested in becoming a sponsor of our show, we are now planning on working that into our format.Below my signature are the promised links I discuss in this episode. We thank you for being there, and for encouraging us to up our game by going weekly. Please share with others and feel free to get in touch with us if you have a news tip, a chart in the news to suggest, or if you'd like to work with us as consultants or presenters.That's it for this week's regular weekly episode. Next week might be shorter, might not – it's a work in progress, but it's your work in progress.xx Whitney and ElisabethFTC Rulemaking on ending noncompete clauses; make your comments known!Non-Compete Clause Rulemaking | Federal Trade Commission (ftc.gov)Democracy & Monopoly — Open Markets InstituteAnti-Monopoly Timeline — Open Markets InstituteExecutive Order to Promote Competition in the American Economy This is a public episode.

Looking at the Tyre Nichols case, South Carolina Republican caucus dispute

Hey Identifier, https://thehill.com/homenews/3652777-graham-throws-another-wrench-into-gops-abortion-messaging/ #lindseygraham #betamale #abortion Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-S.C.) created new headaches for Republicans on Tuesday with his claim that abortion is “not a states' rights issue,” keeping the debate in the headlines and undercutting the party's messaging heading into November's midterms. Graham, speaking to “Fox & Friends” on Tuesday morning, acknowledged his bill that would ban abortions after 15 weeks goes against typical GOP thinking on the issue. “This is not a states' rights issue. This is a human right issue,” Graham said. “So, no matter what California or Maryland will do … I am going to advocate a national minimum standard.” But the South Carolina Republican's effort comes at a perilous time for the Senate GOP, which is attempting to retake control of the chamber after two years in the minority and is dealing with a barrage of ads on the issue from Democrats, who see it as a political winner.

That was the gist of Senator Tim Scott's rebuttal to the president's first address to a joint session of Congress on Wednesday night. Painting Biden's calls for unity as “empty platitudes,” the South Carolina Republican accused Democrats of dividing Americans in pursuit of a far-left agenda, and of abandoning GOP lawmakers who sincerely want to come together to advance common-sense legislation. “We need policies and progress that bring us closer together,” Scott said. “But three months in, the actions of the president and his party are pulling us further and further apart.” Leave us a Voice Mail or Support https://anchor.fm/the-identity-booth/message https://anchor.fm/the-identity-booth/support Sub to the channel here https://www.twitch.tv/theidentitybooth Donate https://streamlabs.com/projecteto/tip The Goal: Try to Identify with you as you try to identify with me.

Ryan Thompson, Democratic candidate for State House of Representatives, District 106, kicked off his election campaign celebrating his 22nd birthday, on July 6, 2022 in Myrtle Beach, SC.He's our guest on this special South Carolina Elections Edition of the Lean to the Left podcast, and during our conversation is candid about the challenges and the uphill battle he's facing, demonstrating a "never quit" spirit that is sure to take him a long way in his career.Ryan grew up as a gay kid subjected to the bullying and disrespect that came with that. When he was just 11, his father passed away and despite his grief, he pitched in to support his family, creating handmade pet toys and selling them online and at a local flea market. Ironically, when he was old enough, he landed a job at a Chick Filet, not exactly a bastion of sexual tolerance, but one that eventually got him a scholarship for college. Ryan was born and raised in Murrells Inlet, S.C., and has called Horry County his home for his entire life. He graduated from St. James High School in 2018 and recently graduated from the College of Charleston Honors College with a degree in Political Science. Now, Ryan faces another big challenge -- seeking public office as a gay Democrat in a deep red South Carolina Republican stronghold. But, he is passionate about his hometown and is convinced he has a real shot. And, if he succeeds, he plans to make a real difference as a state legislator with zero ties to special interests. Every bit of his modest campaign war chest comes from individual donors, not developers or others with a financial stake in legislative decisions.In fact, Ryan has been involved with local politics since he was 17, working on campaigns across the state, meeting with voters and listening to their needs. In high school he was involved in theater, swim team, student government, and future business leaders of America, and then, in his senior year in college, this budding young politician was elected Student Body President. Ryan also was a student representative on the Council for Higher Education and is passionate about ensuring all South Carolinians have access to a quality education. He will be an unyielding advocate for educators in the state and is currently pursuing teaching opportunities in the community.I am sharing this story with Lean to the Left readers, listeners and viewers because Ryan Thompson represents the type of individual we so badly need in public service today. We need his youth, his enthusiasm, his determination, his caring, and his practical common sense that was developed during those tough times on Medicaid and food stamps.Here are some of the questions we posed to Ryan on the podcast:Q. Tell us why you are running for the state legislature at such a young age and in an area where the odds so heavily favor the Republicans.Q. You've fought the odds all your life, right?Q. What is it about politics and the opportunity to serve that attracts you?Q. Do you feel that your youth is an advantage or disadvantage – and why?Q. Same question about being gay. Running for office here in SC, is that an obstacle for you, or doesn't it matter?Q. If you're elected, what do you want to achieve?Q. What do you see for your future? Even higher office?Q. Are you enjoying your experience as a candidate?Q. It costs money to run for office. You clearly do not come from a wealthy family. Where is the money coming from?Q. Are you being taken seriously by your opponent?Q. What's your elevator speech to the voters of your district? Why should they elect you?Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-lean-to-the-left-podcast--4719048/support.

US Senator Lindsay Graham (R-SC) is obviously trying to get Democrats on the record on whether they support late term abortions. The leftwing UK Guardian reports: Senator Lindsey Graham was proposing legislation on Tuesday for a nationwide 15-week abortion ban, a politically risky strategy as a backlash grows to the supreme court ruling earlier this summer overturning federal protections for the procedure. Polling shows that 57% of Americans disapproved of the court's June reversal of the 1973 Roe v Wade ruling guaranteeing access to abortion, and 62% say the procedure should be legal in all or most cases. The proposal by Graham, a hardline South Carolina Republican, will be called the “Protecting Pain-capable Unborn Children from Late-term Abortions Act”. It stands next to no chance of becoming law, but is seen by analysts as an attempt to frame the discussion around abortion, with fewer than 60 days until the midterms. Also, President Biden announces a celebration of the Inflation Reduction Act's 4-week anniversary - just as the new report shows inflation increased. And Mark Garrison discusses the new Charlotte-Mecklenburg Police Department media policy, and says it was deceptively framed by the Chief last night during the City Council meeting.      Get exclusive content here!: https://thepetekalinershow.com/See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

He is the first of 10 House Republicans who voted to impeach Trump over the Jan. 6 insurrection to lose a reelection bid

The richest person in America tweeted last week that Democrats have “become the party of division & hate, so I can no longer support them and will vote Republican.”Hello? Democrats are the party of division and hate? What planet has Elon been living on? Meanwhile, the second-richest person in America (Jeff Bezos) tweeted that the Democrats' proposed tax hikes on the rich will not tame inflation and their proposed spending would worsen it (he's wrong, and I'll explain why in another post).In addition to last week's billionaire tweetstorm, it was reported that Oracle's Larry Ellison (#7 on Forbes' list of richest Americans) in November 2020 joined Sean Hannity, Lindsay Graham, and Trump's attorney to discuss strategies for contesting the presidential election results.Oh, and Ellison has dumped some $25 million into a Super PAC supporting South Carolina Republican senator Tim Scott, a Trump endorsee. As I noted last week, another billionaire, Peter Thiel, has donated at least as much to Trump-endorsed Republicans in senate primaries.Not to mention Trump-diehards Charles Koch (#16 on the Forbes list), Rupert Murdoch (#31), and Carl Icahn (#43).This is the same crew, not incidentally, that's been fighting unions and flooding Congress and statehouses with cash to support Trump election deniers, prevent tax hikes on themselves, and kill off Biden's and the Democrats' agenda (more on this in a moment).  This billionaire bombardment gives Biden and the Democrats an opportunity to tell America whose side they're on and whose side they're not on — in effect, to declare class war on the class warriors. Will they take it?Not in over a century has so much of the nation's wealth been concentrated at the very top — in the richest one-tenth of one percent of the richest one-tenth of one percent. Not in seventy years have corporations been as flush with cash, notwithstanding the stock market's recent selloff. Not since the 1890s have CEOs raked in as much pay relative to average workers. Not since the creation of the income tax have the super-rich paid as low a rate as they do now relative to tax rate paid by most other Americans.Isn't it time for Biden and the Democrats to tell this to America? Wealth isn't a zero-sum game in which more at the top necessarily means less below, but wealth is tied to power — and power is a zero-sum game.Many of America's wealthiest and most powerful are now gathering for their annual gabfest in Davos, Switzerland, just as the annual get-together of America's right (CPAC) is coming to a close in Budapest, Hungary. The two conferences are beginning to converge. Although the CEOs and hedge fund managers at Davos profess to worry about America's record inequality and tout “corporate social responsibility,” their own corporate political action committees are doing everything possible to squelch tax increases on them, and to prevent additional spending on health care, child care, and other needs of average working people. Meanwhile, not even the Republicans' billionaire backers can disguise the total absence of a Republican agenda to help average working people.The reason Democrats haven't been able to get their agenda through the Senate and raise taxes on billionaires or on big corporations to pay for it — or even repeal the Trump tax cuts that went mostly to the top — is because Democrats have only 48 senate votes (all fifty Senate Republicans are against these measures, and the other two senate Democrats are major beneficiaries of campaign donations from corporations and the rich).Isn't it time for Biden and the Democrats tell this to the American people, and offer them a clear choice in the upcoming midterms and beyond?Billionaires are mounting a class war. Republican lawmakers are mounting a culture war to deflect attention from it.On October 31, 1936, in New York's Madison Square Garden, Franklin D. Roosevelt, facing a bruising re-election bid, defined the stakes much as they are today. He explained that America was in a struggle against “business and financial monopoly, speculation, reckless banking, class antagonism, sectionalism, war profiteering” and that a wealthy elite “had begun to consider the Government of the United States as a mere appendage to their own affairs.”He continued: “We know now that Government by organized money is just as dangerous as Government by organized mob.”Then FDR said, in words similar to what Joe Biden and Democrats should be using against the billionaires and bigots who are now arrayed against them:Never before in all our history have these forces been so united against one candidate as they stand today. They are unanimous in their hate for me — and I welcome their hatred.Isn't it time Biden and the Democrats came out clearly against the billionaires abusing their wealth and power by suppressing the wages of average working people and flooding our democracy with their money? And against the culture warriors who are covering up for them? Isn't it time for Biden and the Democrats to explain why they haven't been able to get their agenda through Congress? Biden and the Democrats should tell Americans which side they are on — and ask America to choose sides. ***PS: ICYMI, here's a clip from my appearance on “The Simpsons” last night, where I had a chance to explain the reasons for America's staggering inequality in 8 seconds. (I probably got more across to more people in those 8 seconds than in all the books I've written and all the classes I've taught, combined.) This is a public episode.

Can the threat of climate change bring together the political left and right in the United States? In the partisan politics that have become so divisive in our country, climate change is usually seen as a progressive issue, disregarded by conservatives. For those who believe that climate change is a very real threat -- to the world's environment, security, economy, agriculture and people – they know that the world must come together quickly to enact durable solutions before it is too late. Yet how can we build consensus for action globally, when in our own country we remain divided? Tonight's guest, Bob Inglis, is a former member of Congress, and the founder of republicEn.org, a grass roots organization whose mission is to educate, recruit and organize conservative voices for action on climate change. Each year the cathedral chooses a theme for inspiration and reflection, and in 2022 our theme is connection. Join Dean Malcolm Clemens Young for a conversation with Inglis about bringing the right and left in the United States together, and leading the world to solutions on climate change. You can help us bring the arts to life at Grace with a gift today to The Forum. Text Think to 76278 or go to gracecathedral.org/givetograce.   About the Guest Bob Inglis is the Executive Director of republicEn.org. He was elected to the U.S. Congress in 1992, having never run for office before. He represented Greenville-Spartanburg, South Carolina, from 1993-1998, unsuccessfully challenged U.S. Senator Fritz Hollings in 1998, and then returned to the practice of commercial real estate law in Greenville, S.C. In 2004, he was re-elected to Congress and served until losing re-election in the South Carolina Republican primary of 2010. In 2011, Inglis went full-time into promoting free enterprise action on climate change and launched the Energy and Enterprise Initiative (“E&EI”) at George Mason University in 2012, later rebranded as republicEn.org. For his work on climate change Inglis was given the 2015 John F. Kennedy Profile in Courage Award. About the Moderator The Very Rev. Dr. Malcolm Clemens Young is the dean of Grace Cathedral.

This is John McGlothlen with The Gazette digital news desk and I'm here with your update for Monday, Nov. 22nd. According to the National Weather Service, in the Cedar Rapids area today, it will be mostly cloudy, then gradually becoming sunny, with a high near 35. Winds from the northwest, 5 to 10 mph. Then tonight, mostly clear, with a low around 22. Republicans in the Pennsylvania Senate said Friday they will pay up to $270,000 over the next six months to have an Iowa consulting firm examine the 2020 election with an eye toward developing changes to their state's election law. The “forensic investigation" is being launched in response to pressure from Republican supporters of former President Donald Trump upset over his 80,000-vote loss in the state, but is well short of the Arizona-style “audit” that many of them have clamored for. The contract was signed by Senate Majority Leader Kim Ward and Envoy Sage, a Dubuque-based company. Committee spokesperson Jason Thompson said it will be made public in redacted form in the coming days. The company will be paid out of a taxpayer-funded leadership account that Ward controls and the agreement can be extended, he said. Envoy Sage president Steve Lahr issued a statement saying company officials have no “pre-conceived notions for what we will or will not find” and that he considers objectivity to be critical. Thompson initially said Lahr recalled making only a single political donation, several years ago, to a friend from his time in the military. Later Friday, Thompson said Lahr acknowledged also making donations to the National Republican Congressional Committee and to U.S. Sen. Lindsay Graham, a South Carolina Republican. It was senior day at Kinnick Stadium in Iowa City Saturday, and the Hawkeyes are now 9-2 after a 33-23 win over Illinois. One of the highlights was a 100-yard kickoff return by Charlie Jones for a first-quarter touchdown. Iowa is 6-2 in the Big Ten and still in play for the West title, though it needs to beat Nebraska Friday and have Minnesota take down Wisconsin the following day in Minneapolis. Like food?

This past week on March 16th, South Carolina Republican-controlled House Judiciary Committee tabled the Save Women's Sports Act. This prevented it from moving forward through the legislative process and becoming a law. This act was intended to protect the arena of women-only sports for girls in South Carolina schools. We decided to record this episode as an urgent response, to help inform you about what is going on right now in our State House. And if you don't live in South Carolina, we urge to be on the lookout for mirroring legislation in your state, and of course, to make your voice heard. We were able to secure an interview with Representative Ashley Trantham, and Meagan sits down with her to learn about the specifics of the bill, what prevented it from going through, and how we can do better in the future.

Senator Tim Scott is one of the biggest name in Washington. The South Carolina Republican is generally respected on both sides of the aisle and has been a leader on big issues facing the country. Recently, Sen. Scott joined host Dave Anthony on the Fox News Rundown. We did ask the Senator about the coronavirus and the economic challenges facing America, but much of the time was spent on his incredible story and unique life in politics. We could not get the entire conversation in the segment that ran this week, so we thought we'd let you hear it on the Fox News Rundown Extra. As you listen to the whole conversation, you will hear about his relationship with President, his views about our country and the challenges he faces as being the only black Republican in the Senate.

After talking to the South Carolina Republican about his conversation with the President about reopening the nation, and reading a few e-mails from guys talking about their wives, I have some reservations about this "new normal" too many people want us to have.

Hello! And welcome to another edition of the Inside The Newsroom podcast newsletter. Today’s guest is Kait Parker, meteorologist at weather.com and host of the Warming Signs podcast. We talked about hurricane recoveries and what the past couple of years mean for climate change attitudes. Below are links and post-game analyses of everything we talked about. Hope you enjoy and pick up something!Warming SignsClever title aside, Kait has her own podcast where she speaks to people from different areas of the meteorology and climatology worlds. Last week’s episode was topical to our own conversation, when Kait spoke to Lisa LaDue, Hurricane Harvey Mental Health and Psychosocial Program Manager for Americares. Definitely worth listening to about how when a hurricane comes ashore, it’s just the beginning of a recovery that can last decades. Destruction Is Just the StartHurricane Michael’s 160mph winds left parts of Florida and Georgia unrecognizable. For many, the news was quickly shoved aside by politics or some dumb s**t Rick Scott said. But for the thousands of farmers in south west Georgia, the rebuilding has only just begun and may take up to a decade to return to normalcy. Max Blau, Atlanta MagazineBob Inglis At Your ServiceThere are portions of the GOP that have their heads screwed on as it pertains to climate change, and one of those is former six-term South Carolina Republican congressman Bob Inglis, who lost his seat way back in 2010 in large part due to his support for climate change. Inglis didn’t even make it out of the GOP primary, but has since set up his own nonprofit, RepublicEn, devoted to getting conservatives to come to grips with climate change.James Rainey, NBC NewsWhy Even Have a Hurricane Season?Tropical storms have occurred before the “official” start of the Atlantic hurricane season (June 1st) for the past five years, which begs the question why we put a label on when a season starts and ends (November 30th). There is logic behind it: 97 percent of tropical activity in the Atlantic happens between these dates, according to the National Hurricane Center. And fun fact: The season initially stretched from June 15 through November 15, until officials decided in 1965 to expand it.Nicole Chavez, CNNHurricane Imelda Sounds Terrifying 😨A look at the names for the 2019 Atlantic hurricane season. Here’s to hoping we don’t have to use all of them…Saeed Ahmed and Judson Jones, CNNRecord May For TornadoesFor folks like Kait, severe weather is a year-round commitment. In May, a record 13 consecutive days of tornadic activity in the US led to an unprecedented 555 tornado reports. While data is preliminary and needs to be confirmed, we know that two EF-4 tornadoes rocked Dayton, Ohio and Linwood, Kansas, and an EF-3 destroyed parts of Jefferson City, Missouri.Amanda Schmidt, AccuweatherIs Climate Change Responsible?The short answer is welllllll... As Dr. Victor Gensini from Northern Illinois University points out, no single weather event is caused by climate change. But that doesn’t mean climate change didn’t have an effect. More simply put, climate change increases the odds of severe weather events happening. More detail in the thread below. Victor Gensini, Northern Illinois UniversityThe “Twister” EffectSomething I’ve always found fascinating is the power of Hollywood, and the 1996 classic “Twister” is a classic example. The movie starring Helen Hunt and Bill Paxton was a huge hit on and off the screen, and is widely cited as the birth of amateur storm chasing in the US. In the decades before the movie, meteorology in America was obscure, maybe a small department at only a few dozen universities. But in the decade between 1994 and 2004, Americans receiving bachelor’s degrees in meteorology increased by 47 percent.Ben Guarino, Washington PostRelated Podcasts#37 — Josh Morgerman (Hurricane Man)#23 — Michael E.

Listen HERE Senators emerged from a closed-door briefing with the CIA director Tuesday to say there’s no doubt Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman was deeply involved in the killing of journalist Kamal Khashoggi — but still not clear on what steps Congress can take to punish him. “We know he ordered it. We know he monitored it,” said Sen. Bob Corker, chairman of the Foreign Relations Committee, after hearing from CIA chief Gina Haspel. He said it the case were submitted to a jury trial, “he would be convicted in 30 minutes.” Sen. Lindsey Graham, South Carolina Republican, called the evidence they heard overwhelming, and rebutted the claims of top Trump administration officials that there was no “smoking gun” tying the crown prince directly to the killing in October. “There’s not a smoking gun, there’s a smoking saw,” Mr. Graham said, referring to the reports that Khashoggi’s body was dismembered after he was slain in the Saudi consulate in Istanbul. Mr. Graham said those who deny the crown prince’s involvement — including the president and his team — “have to be willfully blind.” READ MORE: www.washingtontimes.com/news/2018/dec/4/lindsey-graham-sees-smoking-saw-khashoggi-killing/

First, [3:35] newest Crooked Media pod host Ira Madison III (@ira) drops by to talk about why “good men” should be prepared to lose something when it comes to facing and assessing their past behaviour, which includes acknowledging a system that has afforded white men so much success.

Only 11 percent of conservative Republicans say climate scientists understand the causes of climate change very well. So, can anything change their minds? One conservative says ‘yes’. Bob Inglis is a former South Carolina Republican congressman who now heads a group called republicEN.org which aims to promote ‘free market’ solutions to climate change.  

For character witnesses in a presidential primary, candidates turn to a cast of elected officials and other prominent supporters to vouch for their bona fides. But a good surrogate can be hard to find. RCP discusses with Rep. Jeff Duncan, a South Carolina Republican, who campaigned on behalf of Ted Cruz.

Obviously, we have to talk about the Nevada Democratic caucus and the crazy South Carolina Republican primary. We take a moment to lament Jeb Bush's exit from the campaign, and we discuss the state of the race going forward. We've been disappointed that education has barely been a side note in the presidential race, so devote The Suit to our thoughts on education reform. Finally, we talk Oscar nominations in The Heels.

Trump? There's so much about the primary that isn't going Christie's way. But he certainly didn't expect to suddenly be the mild, more-restrained candidate in the race. This week, New Jersey Public Radio's Matt Katz and Paul Mulshine, conservative columnist for the Star-Ledger join us to talk about what Donald Trump's ascendency means for the Christie campaign. With Trump generating so much attention, Matt says Christie has been 'totally outshined.' He says Christie's 'Tell It Like It Is' brand doesn't make sense 'when someone else is saying stuff that's even more outrageous.' He adds that Trump 'makes Christie look like the absolute cookie-cutter politician – the opposite of the perception that Christie has cultivated on the national scene for all these years.' Also: Christie was back in South Carolina this week. Host David Furst is joined by South Carolina Republican strategist Chip Felkel, and Deborah Streetman, president of the Charleston County Republican Women. They check in to tell us how Christie is being received in the key primary state. Check out the WNYC Data News App: The Christie Tracker.
