Michael Steele dives into the evolving political landscape, focusing on the so-called "origin story" of the current movement within the Democratic Party. He addresses the narrative being pushed by Republicans, declaring the party as socialist, and counters it with insights on what voters truly desire: candidates who will fight for their interests. Michael highlights the recent successes of Democratic candidates across various regions, including conservative areas, emphasizing that it's not a messaging issue but rather a matter of candidate selection and strategy. Tune in for a lively discussion on the implications of these dynamics as midterms approach, and why understanding voters' needs is crucial for both parties.Catch Michael Steele on The Weeknight Mondays - Fridays at 7pm EST on MSNBC: https://www.msnbc.com/weeknightFollow Michael on X: https://x.com/MichaelSteeleFollow Michael on Bluesky: https://bsky.app/profile/michaelsteele.bsky.socialFollow Michael on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/chairman_steele/Follow Michael on Threads: https://www.threads.net/@chairman_steeleListen to The Michael Steele Podcast: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the-michael-steele-podcast/id1412905534Watch The Michael Steele Podcast: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLJNKzTkCZE9uNqPiKYw5eU5YkS_mMsr6oIf you enjoyed this, share it with a friend!

Welcome back to HALO Talks! In this episode, we're joined once again by Adam Sedlack, CEO of UFC Gym, for another conversation that explores the evolution of the brand since his last appearance in May, 2019. (Link below.) Adam takes us behind the scenes on navigating the challenges of COVID-19, transitioning to a franchise-focused, asset-light business model, and expanding globally, with UFC Gyms now operating in 48 countries and growing. You'll hear firsthand how strategic decisions protected both the UFC brand and its franchisees, why careful franchisee selection and capitalization are crucial, and how UFC Gym's new concepts, like boutique jiu-jitsu studios, are shaping the industry's future. Plus, Adam shares very candid advice for fitness entrepreneurs, his thoughts on brand partnerships, and what true community means inside—and outside—the gym doors. Whether you're a franchise veteran or just starting out, this episode is packed with a ton of takeaways.  Key themes discussed UFC Gym's global franchising strategy and expansion Navigating COVID-19 financial challenges without bankruptcy Franchisee support, training, and operational infrastructure Introducing UFC Gym Jiu Jitsu boutique model Importance of franchisee passion and capitalization Opportunities for gym conversions and management partnerships Synergies and potential for brand sponsorships in clubs A Few Key Takeaways 1.Asset-Light, Franchise-Focused Strategy Post-COVID: The organization shifted from owning corporate gyms, creating significant rent and debt liabilities, toward an asset-light, franchise-centric model. Assets were sold to well-capitalized franchisees, and proceeds were used to pay off debt, allowing the company to emerge stronger post-pandemic 06:07. 2. Disciplined Franchisee Selection: Success in franchising is not just about expansion but about choosing the right partners. The best franchisees are both properly capitalized and deeply passionate about the brand and its mission. A lack of either capital or passion is a deal-breaker, and sometimes it's about connecting people who have both qualities 20:39. 3. Global Expansion & Diversified Models: The brand is now developing in 48 countries, opening nearly one new gym every week, and is on track to increase that pace. Performance is especially strong in larger 30,000-40,000 square foot models. Additionally, they've launched a low-capital UFC Gym Jiu Jitsu studio to serve smaller markets and new owner-operator franchisees, expanding their reach and appeal 06:23. 4. Operational Infrastructure and Automation: To scale effectively, automation, robust systems, and support infrastructure are essential. The company leverages tools like Club Connect, comprehensive CRMs, and AI to support franchisees, enabling even average teams to perform at high levels by following well-crafted operational manuals 17:41. 5. Potential and Practice of Facility Conversions: There is growing opportunity in converting existing, often underperforming, fitness facilities (sometimes with landlords becoming franchisees) into refreshed UFC Gym-branded locations. The model is flexible, allowing for such conversions and even management partnerships where the UFC Gym team operates facilities on behalf of landlord-owners 26:24.

The dust is settling on DC's mayoral election, and plenty of people are trying to interpret just what message the electorate was sending. I decided to outsource that job to DC Councilmember Christina Henderson. She's worked closely with Janeese Lewis George in her time on the Council — but she's also pushed for a somewhat different set of priorities than the likely next mayor.

Patrick Fruzzetti warns the market is showing signs of irrational exuberance, particularly in semiconductors, even as the U.S. consumer remains strong on solid retail sales. He points to inflation risks, geopolitics, and the Fed's influence on the bond market as key drivers of rising rate pressure. Fruzzetti expects bond market stress to spill into equities, leading to increased volatility despite ongoing momentum.======== Schwab Network ========Empowering every investor and trader, every market day.Subscribe to the Market Minute newsletter - https://schwabnetwork.com/subscribeDownload the iOS app - https://apps.apple.com/us/app/schwab-network/id1460719185Download the Amazon Fire Tv App - https://www.amazon.com/TD-Ameritrade-Network/dp/B07KRD76C7Watch on Sling - https://watch.sling.com/1/asset/191928615bd8d47686f94682aefaa007/watchWatch on Vizio - https://www.vizio.com/en/watchfreeplus-exploreWatch on DistroTV - https://www.distro.tv/live/schwab-network/Follow us on X – https://twitter.com/schwabnetworkFollow us on Facebook – https://www.facebook.com/schwabnetworkFollow us on LinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/company/schwab-network/About Schwab Network - https://schwabnetwork.com/about

Interview with Tim Harrison, Managing Director, Ionic Rare Earths Our previous interview: https://www.cruxinvestor.com/posts/ionic-rare-earth-asxixr-advanced-recycler-targets-china-free-heavy-rare-earth-supply-7871Recording date: 16th June 2026Ionic Rare Earths is advancing its position in the rapidly evolving global rare earth supply chain, driven by Western efforts to reduce reliance on China following export restrictions imposed in 2025. At the center of its strategy is a demonstration-scale recycling and separation facility in Belfast, which processes end-of-life magnets and manufacturing waste into separated rare earth oxides. A key milestone has been the successful validation of these recycled materials in a Ford motor—an industry first for a recycler—alongside a commercial supply agreement with US-based Advanced Magnet Lab, which serves defense-related applications.Although the Belfast plant currently produces only about 10 tonnes of separated oxides annually, it has demonstrated the ability to recover a broad range of elements, including high-value heavy rare earths such as dysprosium, terbium, and yttrium. Prices for these materials have surged sharply since China's restrictions, in some cases increasing multiple times over, significantly strengthening the project's economic outlook.A 2024 feasibility study for a larger £85 million Belfast facility projected annual output of 400 tonnes, with a post-tax net present value exceeding $500 million and an internal rate of return above 40%. Management believes current market conditions could further enhance these returns, though updated figures have not yet been released. The company has secured a £12 million UK government grant and is targeting a final investment decision by September 2026, contingent on completing funding and securing supply and offtake agreements.Looking ahead, Ionic plans to replicate its modular recycling model internationally, prioritizing the United States, where significant investment in domestic magnet manufacturing is expected to generate substantial recyclable waste. The company favors joint ventures to retain control over its technology and material flows. While promising, key risks remain, including scaling production, securing full project financing, and finalizing commercial agreements.Learn more: https://www.cruxinvestor.com/companies/ionic-rare-earths-ltdSign up for Crux Investor: https://cruxinvestor.com

We break down the historic foreign policy progress happening overseas as the White House announces a major milestone in negotiations with Iran. Dawn highlights the latest de-confliction updates from JD Vance before his departure from Switzerland, including a 60-day interim deal to keep the Strait of Hormuz open and toll-free. We analyze how the Trump administration is applying maximum pressure to permanently end the nuclear weapons program while routing unfrozen assets directly into purchasing American corn, soy, and wheat to enrich domestic farmers and feed the Iranian people. The crew welcomes Frank Scales from Surge Philly to expose the intense friction occurring on the ground at recent local pride festivals in Washington, D.C., and Baltimore. Frank shares wild firsthand footage of self-appointed security forces utilizing aggressive intimidation tactics and improperly holstered firearms on public property to silence independent journalism. Dawn reacts to the shocking refusal of attendees to recognize basic biological realities and addresses the deeper cultural push to upend traditional Western values, replace father figures, and target young children. Dawn shifts focus to the mainstream media's ongoing bias by omission, tracking how major success stories under the Trump administration consistently vanish from the nightly news. We look at how Department of Homeland Security leaders Tom Homan and Markwayne Mullin are quietly executing highly effective crackdowns on both the supply and demand sides of human trafficking and illegal labor. Finally, we laugh at the media's sudden obsession with Washington reflection pool algae, discuss the hostile treatment of golfer Wyndham Clark by an arrogant New York crowd at the US Open, and lament the growing "hall of cowards" as local towns cancel traditional Fourth of July parades.

As AI investment keeps growing, our strategists Carolyn Campbell and Vishwas Patkar discuss the many ways tech infrastructure gets financed and the opportunities for investors.Read more insights from Morgan Stanley.----- Transcript -----Carolyn Campbell: Welcome to Thoughts on the Market. I'm Carolyn Campbell, Morgan Stanley's Asset-Backed Securities Strategist. Vishwas Patkar: And I'm Vishwas Patkar, Morgan Stanley's Head of U.S. Corporate Credit Strategy. Carolyn Campbell: Today, how fixed income markets are helping fund the AI build-out. It's Thursday, June 18th, at 10am in New York. Let's get right into it, Vishwas. We've both come on this podcast before to talk about how credit markets are financing the AI build-out. And over the last ten months, I think it's fair to say that things are faster, broader, deeper than we perhaps expected initially. This investment now spans investment-grade corporate bonds, high yield loans, and a range of securitized products. From your seat in corporate credit, why does AI infrastructure matter so much, to investors right now? Vishwas Patkar: This is a big talking point in our client discussions. it's also telling that less than a year ago, we wrote about this topic for the first time, identifying a $1.5 trillion financing gap that credit markets could help bridge. At that time, data center debt was not something that investors were really focused on. Yet less than 12 months forward, this, I think, is the number one theme dominating both your and my market. And why it's important, I would say, is across, three key vectors. First, just the scale. So, if you look at overall AI-related debt issuance so far this year, we're close to $250 billion. For the balance of the year, we expect that number to double, so about $500 billion of total AI debt financing for 2026. Increasingly the second vector, I think, is around the complexity of deals. So initially, while AI financing was dominated by vanilla investment-grade corporate bond deals, we are now seeing that broaden out into project finance style deals in the high-yield market. We have seen an uptick in chip financing across the different credit silos. And that's important for investors, as identifying value across these different options does require deep credit expertise. And third, as this investment cycle rolls along, it's also important to be cognizant of risks that are building. Not just from a very broad top-down sense around the demand for compute. But also, what are some of the nuances in these different structures – whether it is in data center construction or is in chip financing that investors will need to monitor. So, it's across these three themes that we think data center debt financing is gaining importance. Carolyn Campbell: Now, the underlying demand for AI infrastructure is very strong. That doesn't necessarily mean that every bond tied to this theme is automatically going to be attractive. And as you mentioned, [$]500 billion of supply for the year; a large amount of complexity between those structures.How should credit investors think about the various risks within these different structures? Vishwas Patkar: So, in investment grade, the story is a bit simpler. So, we have had unsecured hyperscaler bond issuance. We have had issuance from semiconductor names. And then we've had some, what we call, private style data center deals. But the vast majority still comes from hyperscaler investment grade rated bonds. For this market, our focus is less on fundamentals because fundamentals are very strong. And then hyperscaler are some of the more most creditworthy companies that we've seen in the history of the market. Our emphasis more is on just the quantum of supply. So, year to date, we have had north of [$]100 billion of hyperscaler debt in the dollar market. We've had north of [$]50 billion being issued in other currencies. If you look at the overall investment grade market, supply is up almost 25 percent versus last year. That's consistent with our call for a year of record issuance this year. And increasingly, if you look forward and then map these issuance numbers to our CapEx estimates, where we could very much be on track for another record to be hit next year. So, the issue of the investment grade market is not around the fundamentals of the companies or these deals. It's more about the quantum of supply, which we think eventually will test the demand capacity of this market. And our base case for the investment grade space is similar to 1997-1998, where credit was starting to finance the business cycle, spreads widened modestly, and IG could underperform other risk assets. But over a longer time horizon, spreads still look historically very low. Carolyn Campbell: Now, what about further down the credit spectrum into the non-investment grade portion? What about that part of the issuance spectrum for AI? Vishwas Patkar: Yeah. So, what we're seeing in the sub-investment grade space, especially in high yield, is very different. There, the growth in data center financing has happened around project finance deals for data center construction. In many cases, these have come from crypto miner companies that effectively provide what we call speed to power solutions. We've also had some unsecured issuance from neo clouds, although that's relatively small. But this sector has expanded from effectively zero billion around the fall of last year to about [$]40 billion this year. We expect to see another [$]20 billion of issuance by the end of 2026. And the way they fit into this whole ecosystem is – these project finance deals we think are interesting diversifiers for regular credit investors. They do come with construction risks, especially initially for the first two to three years till the data center is up and running. But on the flip side, you do get a lot of structural enhancements and creditor protections, which is something you don't see in the vast majority of the high yield market. So, I think a key shift in the framework that investors have to do for these deals is focus on asset-level risk, which is again, I think a big divergence from how the vast majority of the credit market trades, which is largely unsecured corporate-level risk that investors have been used to. Carolyn Campbell: All right. You just brought up construction risks. Do you think that's the biggest risk facing the high-yield investors today? Vishwas Patkar: Yes. I think for the high-yield deals in particular, construction risk is the dominant vector that investors are focused on. Because it's important to remember a lot of the debt issuers are first-time borrowers. And they have a limited track record of construction in the past. So, you could see potential delays and things like cost overruns that can affect sentiment on the sector. Or at least on specific bond deals. And this will be especially important to monitor going into the second half of the year, as we have some of the first delivery dates coming up for the deals in the sector that were announced last year. That being said, you know, even though some of the tenants have termination rights, if delays go beyond 180 days, our view is that given the structural power constraints, these termination rights are unlikely to be exercised. So, while construction milestones can affect sentiment and short-term valuations, we would look at any blips as buying opportunities in the space. Alright. So Carolyn, let me throw this back to you. So, construction risk clearly very important for the corporate credit market, especially for high yield investors. Is that something ABS investors or commercial mortgage-backed investors care about? And in what other ways are these asset classes different from corporate credit? Carolyn Campbell: Okay. So first and foremost, the biggest difference is that in securitized products, the assets are stabilized, they're cash flowing, they're online. We don't have that first vector of construction risk in our space. The second biggest difference is while in high yield and IG we've mostly seen – or we've entirely seen single campus, single tenant data centers; in securitization issuance, it's mostly multi-tenant, multi-asset, multi-regional, deals that have come to market. And so, it's a very different risk profile. And as a consequence, investors are focused not just on who is behind this one single lease and what are the termination rates, but what does the landscape look like in general for compute? How does that affect vacancy and churn rates? And then lastly, the issuers themselves are different. You talked about the crypto companies. You get a little bit more of the data center, data center construction. Whereas in securitized products, these are companies that have been around for 5, 10, 20 years. They're accustomed to managing a fleet of assets, dozens if not hundreds of tenants. They've got a little bit more of a track record for the most part, than the types of issuers we're seeing in the credit market. Vishwas Patkar: Your market post-construction, more leverage to the thematic of demand for compute – and how the AI investment cycle is playing out. Versus the corporate credit market, which is largely exposed to construction risks as the data centers get built out. So that's a very important difference.That being said, one theme that ties both our markets are just healthy fundamentals, but at the same time heavy supply. So, I talked about how we see that affecting our view on investment grade. How is that same tension showing up in securitized products? Carolyn Campbell: So exactly as you said, the fundamental story is very strong. We don't see deterioration in performance of the assets either that has happened yet or that we expect to come in the near term. So, it really is a technically driven story. Supply in this space, we're forecasting at around [$]30 billion for year, so smaller in magnitude, but relatively large for the market. That has very elevated supply expectations, and so as a consequence, we've seen spreads back up across the space. We do think that some of the cross-asset comparisons will help keep spreads contained from here. And so, we do see value in securitized credit across the stack for the rest of the year. Vishwas Patkar: All right. So, you brought up the cross-asset comparison. And so, we've discussed the fundamental differences in our market, how much issuance we expect. But, you know, just to end on a commercial note – if we are advising investors on where is the best relative value and what's the framework for comparing opportunities, how do you think about that? Where do we see value across the ecosystem? Carolyn Campbell: I mean, I think this is probably the biggest question that investors that are looking at this space are facing today. And there's... If we're thinking just about the data center backed assets, I think there are two main things. One is the asset itself, where we're focused on things like the geography, the tenant, the interconnectivity, the flexibility of this asset for multiple uses. And then the second is on the structure of the deal itself. How much leverage is being raised against the asset? How cash flowing is it? And then of course, the duration as well. But it's a great question. And because of the complexity of this space, it can be really hard to compare one to the other. Vishwas Patkar: Yeah. And, at the risk of providing a non-answer, I very much think investors are in the process of coming up with a framework because these deals have come very quickly. This is a new sector for most credit investors to analyze. But I think what we can say with a high degree of certainty is this is blurring the lines between corporate credit and securitized credit. So, you know, this opens up more avenues for us to collaborate on this topic going forward. Carolyn Campbell: All right. That's a great place for us to leave it today with that nice cross-collaboration. Vishwas, thank you so much for taking the time to talk. Vishwas Patkar: Great speaking with you, Caroline. Carolyn Campbell: Thanks for listening. If you enjoy Thoughts on the Market, please leave us a review wherever you listen and share the podcast with a friend or colleague today.

In Wednesday's edition of Hollywood's Headlines, the guys react to the massive television numbers generated by the Knicks' championship run, as ESPN and ABC delivered the most-watched NBA Finals since the 1990s, including the most-watched Game 5 since 1998. The conversation continues with more fallout from New York's championship celebration before shifting to hockey, where the Stanley Cup Final also posted huge ratings, becoming the most-watched Finals since 2019 and more than doubling last year's audience. The guys also discuss Peyton Manning's Omaha Productions expanding its portfolio by adding the World Series of Poker, and wrap up with the surprising news that Floyd Mayweather is facing theft and fraud allegations tied to the purchase of a luxury watch using a face check—a shocking development given the enormous wealth he has accumulated throughout his legendary boxing career.

In this episode, we kick things off at the nation's busiest container gateway, where frontloading is fueling a massive early peak season surge. The Port of Los Angeles handled over 840,000 TEUs in May, up seventeen percent from a year ago, driven by strong inventory replenishment, concerns about fuel costs, trade-policy uncertainty, and preparation for upcoming retail seasons. Loaded imports surged twenty-six percent year-over-year, rebounding sharply from May 2025 when import traffic was severely undercut by Liberation Day tariffs on China. Meanwhile, the truckload market's upswing is officially ushering in driver pay hikes across the sector. Joliet-based carrier GP Transco increased pay for all company drivers by five cents per mile, pushing the upper end to seventy-two cents per mile, while Dubuque's Hirschbach announced a ten-cent per mile increase for over-the-road drivers. A supply-led trucking recovery has prompted the need for enhanced driver pay and perks, with heightened regulatory enforcement purging noncompliant drivers from the market since last fall. Finally, the Federal Railroad Administration is greenlighting expanded testing of high-tech track inspection systems as Class I railroads prepare for a major safety upgrade. The FRA recently approved a five-year waiver that lets railroads expand the use of Automated Track Inspection technology, which uses lasers, cameras, sensors, and ground-penetrating radar to scan tracks for defects. CSX plans to start using the waiver on July first, deploying the technology across over three thousand route miles, with early data showing ATI reduces track geometry defects by ninety percent in some cases.

In this episode of NASCIO Voices, hosts Amy Glasscock and Alex Whitaker sit down with NASCIO policy analyst Kalea Young-Gibson to discuss her article Digital Accessibility Compliance Thoughts From a Public Sector Attorney, which is based on a conversation with Max Heinz, supervising attorney with New York State Information Technology Services. The conversation covers the recently extended DOJ Title II final rule compliance deadline, explaining that while states now have more time, the urgency has not diminished — digital accessibility lawsuits have surpassed 5,000 per year and are now considered mainstream civil rights enforcement. Kalea breaks down what "reasonable effort" really means for state agencies (hint: it's context-driven, not a checklist), how states should structure vendor contracts using WCAG-tied language as a model, and why documentation is the single hardest — and most critical — thing states must get right to defend themselves in litigation. The episode closes with a lightning round featuring emoji habits, lessons from new cat ownership, and a passionate endorsement of Cook Out, North Carolina's beloved fast food chain.
