8.11.2025 #RolandMartinUnfiltered: Trump Seizes D.C. Police, 800 Guard Deployed; TX Dems Block Quorum; VA Axes 400K Union Contracts Donald Trump has done something no president has ever done before.... Putting D.C.'s police force under federal control and sending in 800 National Guard troops. The mayor calls Trump's actions "unsettling and unprecedented." We'll talk with Markus Batchelor from People For the American Way about what this means for democracy and civil rights in the nation's capital. Meanwhile, for a second straight week, more than 50 Texas House Democrats remain out of state, blocking Republicans from reaching the quorum needed to push through a controversial mid-decade redistricting plan. We'll bring you the latest on this high stakes political standoff and what it means for voting rights in Texas. And in a sweeping move affecting hundreds of thousands of workers, the Department of Veterans Affairs has terminated union contracts for over 400,000 employees. We'll break down which unions are impacted and what this means for VA staff nationwide. #BlackStarNetwork partner: Fanbasehttps://www.startengine.com/offering/fanbase This Reg A+ offering is made available through StartEngine Primary, LLC, member FINRA/SIPC.

CAS 8-8-2-2025 Doug Johnson-Huset's Speedway GM from Knoxville Nationals by Calling All Sports
MLB attempted to play a game at Bristol Speedway and it was a total disaster. A record-breaking crowd filled Bristol Motor Speedway to watch the Atlanta Braves take on the Cincinnati Reds, but not everyone left with a winning experience.Among the attendees was Lester Tate and his family, who traveled to the Tennessee venue for the unique ballgame. What they're saying:Tate said while the concept of hosting a baseball game at the iconic NASCAR track was exciting, the execution left much to be desired. He described long waits for basic concessions—claiming he stood in line for two hours for either a bunless hot dog and nachos without cheese—and criticized stadium signage and overall logistics."Frankly, if they'd spent half the time hyping to try and get 85,000 people there planning on what you're going to do when the 85,000 get there, it would have been a total success," Tate said.Certain states will no longer allow you to buy junk food with SNAP.In a win for Make America Healthy Again (MAHA) advocates, six more states have gotten waivers allowing them to ban soda, candy and other high-sugar junk foods from being purchased through the federally funded, but state-operated Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program, known as SNAP. The waivers, which amend the statutory definition of eligible food for purchase under SNAP, were granted to West Virginia, Florida, Colorado, Louisiana, Oklahoma and Texas. The new restrictions on what can and cannot be purchased will go into effect in 2026.The six new waivers bring the number of states that have sought to restrict SNAP purchases of junk food to 12. The other states who received waivers from the Trump administration earlier this year were Nebraska, Iowa, Indiana, Arkansas, Idaho and Utah.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Send us a textKurt Vonder Haar, marketing director for Highland Speedway, recently appeared on the Dirty Right Rear Podcast, brought to you as always by The Barn, to discuss the track's growth, challenges, and upcoming marquee events. A seasoned marketing expert with a background in corporate event planning, Kurt has helped transform Highland Speedway into one of the top short tracks in the region by growing sponsorships from 12 to 75 and expanding its digital reach through social media and TikTok.Kurt highlighted the Speedway's recent success in hosting 103 cars across multiple classes and proudly reflected on Highland welcoming the World of Outlaws for the first time in 2024. He credited this growth to strong community support, a family-friendly atmosphere, and initiatives like the Junior Fan Club and kid-focused pit activities. Despite weather setbacks and rainouts that have affected many tracks this season, Kurt and the Highland race committee have doubled down on their commitment to delivering quality racing and memorable fan experiences.All attention is now on the highly anticipated World of Outlaws “Beat the Heat 40” event coming up Wednesday, August 13th at Highland Speedway in Highland, Illinois. The event will feature the World of Outlaws Late Model Series, DIRTcar Late Models, and DIRTcar UMP Modifieds, including a $2,500 payout for Modifieds. Last year's event drew fans from 24 states, and this year's edition is expected to be even bigger. The grandstand gates open at 4:30 PM, hot laps begin at 6:30 PM, and a full night of racing will follow.Kurt is also organizing special features for fans, including a kids' autograph session, a VIP tent, and contingency plans for weather. Reserved seating is selling quickly, but general admission tickets will still be available at the gate. Prices include $40 for adults, $10 for kids 12 and under, $50 for reserved seats, and $75 for box seats. Full-service and primitive camping options are also available.Looking ahead, Kurt is focused on increasing payouts, improving safety with new fencing in the backstretch, and exploring options to add seating in turns three and four or build premium viewing suites. His ultimate goal is to turn Highland's World of Outlaws stop into a crown jewel event in the dirt racing world. Through vision, hard work, and hometown pride, Kurt Vonder Haar continues to shape Highland Speedway into a national-caliber racing destination.www.BetterHelp.com/TheBarnhttp://www.betterhelp.com/TheBarn http://www.betterhelp.com/TheBarnThis episode is sponsored by www.betterhelp.com/TheBarn and brought to you as always by The Barn Media Group.

Send us a textDeep in northern Michigan, where entertainment options are limited and community bonds run strong, Caitlin Bernard carries forward an extraordinary motorsports legacy. As the fourth generation of women in her family to race at Whittemore Speedway, she follows in the tire tracks of her great-grandmother, grandmother, and mother who all competed at the same local track.Growing up on a farm and riding four-wheelers by age five, Bernard's journey to racing feels almost predestined. Yet surprisingly, she discovered her family's racing heritage only after she began competing herself. "I am the fourth female generation driver on my mom's side at Whittemore Speedway," she reveals, a lineage tracing back to when the track was still dirt and women competed in "Powder Puff" divisions.What makes Bernard's story particularly compelling is her grassroots approach to motorsports. Racing a converted 2003 Buick Regal that was once her daily driver, she exemplifies how racing can be accessible without breaking the bank. "When we put the car together I probably put a grand into it," she explains, noting she's now competing in the top 10 with a completely stock motor.Beyond the competition, Bernard's experience highlights the tight-knit community that defines small-town racing. In her front-wheel drive class, which regularly fields 15-20 cars per night, competitors maintain a family-like atmosphere despite the on-track rivalries. "We might bicker back and forth once in a while, we have rivals once in a while," she says, "but at the end of the day it's like we're one family."When not at the track, Bernard embodies a quintessential Michigan lifestyle – studying to become a registered medical assistant while tending to her homestead with ducks, geese, and dogs. Her story reminds us that motorsports isn't just about professional aspirations, but about community connections, family traditions, and the pure joy of competition.
