In which matters progress further in the SOUTH facing garden; that which is dead evidently does not lie down; Redmark gets The Fear; Tatler circumnavigates, while Davenant, Philips, Arundel and Blake form quite the quartet of enquiry around a tether and a mass of most unusual provenance… A modern Call of Cthulhu Scenario by Joseph Chance   Cast: Josephine Arundel & Felicity Blake – Belinda Cornish Chris Caldwell & Jonathan Tatler – Dan Wheeler Max Davenant & Tam Philips – Danann McAleer Charlie Westenra & Luther Eliot Redmark – Dominic Allen Keeper of Arcane Lore ­– Joseph Chance   CW: This podcast contains mature themes, strong language and cosmic horror.  This episode contains the repeated sound of sexual intimacy as well as abstract description of the points of a compass.

Bangladesh Nationalist Party Chairman Tarique Rahman has taken office as the country's prime minister. His party secured a two-thirds majority in parliamentary elections last week.

In which the Alfoxton quartet reunites, dares a montage, investigates corners and invokes a legend of Irem - confronting the Crayfish and triggering Quantock recognition along the way…   A modern Call of Cthulhu Scenario by Joseph Chance   Cast: Josephine Arundel & Felicity Blake – Belinda Cornish Chris Caldwell & Jonathan Tatler – Dan Wheeler Max Davenant & Tam Philips – Danann McAleer Charlie Westenra & Luther Eliot Redmark – Dominic Allen Keeper of Arcane Lore ­– Joseph Chance   CW: This podcast contains mature themes, strong language and cosmic horror.  This episode contains the repeated sound of sexual intimacy as well as both East Anglian (Cambridge) and West Country (Exeter) pronunciation of the name of Eibon. Briefly, the baby cries again. As ever, human discretion is advised.   The Apocalypse Players is an actual play (or live play) TTRPG podcast focused on horror tabletop roleplaying games. Think Dimension 20 or Critical Role, but fewer dragons, more eldritch horrors, and more British actors taking their roleplaying very seriously (most of the time). We primarily play the Chaosium RPG Call of Cthulhu, but have also been known to dabble with other systems, most of which can be found on our Patreon: www.patreon.com/apocalypseplayers We now have a free Discord server where you can come and worship at the altar of the Apocalypse, play Call of Cthulhu online, and meet like-minded cultists who will be only too eager to welcome you into the fold. New sacrifices - oops - we mean players are always welcome.

Trigger the We Pay: How a Sworn Proof of Loss Changes Everything https://www.publicadjusterbootcamp.com/   Recorded live at the SRC Summit, this conversation brings together Attorney Shaun Hodge and Public Insurance Adjusters Cal and Melanie Spoon for a blunt, practitioner level breakdown of what actually moves an insurance claim from "stuck" to "resolved." Their core message is simple: most delays, denials, and "frivolous" lawsuits trace back to one root problem, incomplete performance of the policy's Duties After a Loss. When the claim file is built correctly and the Sworn Proof of Loss (SPOL) is submitted as a true package, it triggers the carrier's obligations under the We Pay section, starts real statutory timelines, and forces a decision. From there, the path is clean: pay and close, or breach and face consequences. Expect practical guidance on documentation, process discipline, when to go legal, how to preserve leverage, and why so many professionals unknowingly give the carrier extra time, extra control, and extra "float." Speakers Shaun Hodge: Policyholder Attorney focused on insurance claim litigation and pre suit strategy. Cal Spoon: Public Insurance Adjuster and educator focused on building defensible claim files and contract compliance. Melanie Spoon: Public Insurance Adjuster and operator known for process, documentation standards, and clean file systems that hold up under scrutiny. What You Will Learn Why education is the real separator in claims handling, not influence, hype, or "industry talk." How the SPOL is the carrier's kryptonite because it triggers the first step toward the We Pay obligation. Why the "proof of loss" is not a single page, it is a complete package built from the Duties After a Loss. Why bad faith verdicts are rare, and how most cases never qualify because the policy conditions were not fully met. What the 60 day pre suit notice really does, and how it can become both a delay tool and a leverage point depending on file quality. How to treat the claim like a relay race, where PAs run their lap, then hand off cleanly to counsel at the right moment. Why documentation must be business record quality, not memory, not verbal, not "I remember he said." How supplements and amended SPOL submissions affect timelines, and what does and does not restart the clock. How DRP and managed repair programs should be evaluated against one standard: does it match the SPOL scope and restore pre loss condition. Why appraisal often becomes a "baseball bat" when the dispute is really scope or coverage, not price. The debate around PA fees, historical context, and why they argue it should be treated like other required experts. Key Topics Covered 1) Stop making the contract "gray" The speakers argue the policy is far less confusing than people assume, but it becomes gray when professionals do not follow the Duties After a Loss with precision. 2) The We Pay section is not a suggestion Until the insured's side fulfills the conditions, the carrier can treat payment like a "gimme." Once conditions are met, it becomes obligation. 3) SPOL as leverage, not paperwork They frame the SPOL as the trigger that changes the carrier's risk assessment, shifting you from "low threat" to "this file is dangerous." 4) Why attorneys end up doing adjusting work When a file reaches counsel without proper performance, the attorney spends the pre suit period doing the Duties After a Loss for the first time, which weakens bad faith potential and delays progress. 5) Documentation that survives depositions Contemporaneous field notes, follow up emails, consistent templates, and repeatable process create business records that are admissible and defensible. 6) Timing: do not hand off too early or too late They push a practical expectation that many residential claims should be positioned for resolution or litigation within roughly 60 to 90 days, depending on complexity. 7) Float, delays, and why time is money They explain how carriers benefit when claims linger, and why fast, compliant performance forces either closure or escalation. 8) Engineering reports, rebuttals, and control If a carrier produces a report, you rebut it with specificity and speed. If you do not call out the issues in writing, the carrier later argues they were never given the chance to correct it. 9) Complaints with teeth A complaint should be tied to a clear violation of statute or required timelines, supported by evidence, and copied appropriately including the insured. Memorable Lines and Ideas "You will never force the We Pay section until you perform the Duties After a Loss." "The proof of loss is a package." "Build every file like it's going to war, then hope for peace." "Do not make the attorney become an adjuster. Let the attorney do attorney things." Practical Takeaways You Can Apply Immediately Treat the SPOL as a complete package, not a summary sheet. Run a repeatable process on every claim, no shortcuts, no "this one is different." Memorialize key conversations in writing quickly. Non response often becomes meaningful. Rebut engineer opinions with policy grounded logic and factual corrections, not emotion. Hand off to counsel only when the file is ripe for litigation, not when it is messy. Keep the insured informed early so depositions do not produce surprise, shock, or confusion. Resources Mentioned The concept of insurance "float" often discussed by Warren Buffett. Policy language: Duties After a Loss and We Pay conditions. Industry discussion: managed repair and DRP style programs, appraisal strategy, and statutory timing rules. Disclaimer This episode is for education and discussion only. It is not legal advice. Laws and policy language vary by state and by carrier form. Consult qualified counsel for guidance on any specific claim.

Sworn to Justice (1996) was chosen by friend of the show and Patreon supporter Leigh, and is a prime example of mid-90s direct-to-video action thrillers built around martial arts credentials and late-night cable appeal. Produced by PM Entertainment — a studio known for churning out low-budget, high-concept action films — the movie was designed specifically for the booming VHS rental market rather than theatrical release. Director Paul Maslak leaned into the studio's house style: fast-paced action, neon-lit cityscapes, and a blend of crime, thriller, and exploitation elements. The film was shot quickly and economically, typical of PM's efficient production model, which prioritized practical stunts and tight schedules over polish or prestige.The production's biggest selling point was its lead, Cynthia Rothrock, already a well-established martial arts star with multiple Hong Kong and American action credits. Her real-life fighting background allowed the filmmakers to stage fight scenes with minimal doubles, keeping the choreography grounded and physical. Filming took place largely around Los Angeles, using recognizable streets and interiors to stretch the budget while maintaining a contemporary urban feel. Like many PM Entertainment titles, Sworn to Justice found its audience through home video, cable rotation, and word of mouth, eventually earning cult status among fans of 90s action cinema and martial arts B-movies. Today, it's remembered as a quintessential slice of direct-to-video action filmmaking — scrappy, stylish, and unapologetically of its era.Checkout Leigh on The Movie Vent.If you enjoy the show and would like to support us, we have a Patreon ⁠⁠⁠here⁠⁠⁠.Referral links also help out the show if you were going to sign up:⁠⁠⁠NordVPN⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠NordPass⁠⁠⁠Trailer Guy Plot SummaryA city drowning in crime… a system that's failed… and one woman who's had enough.When the law can't protect the innocent, justice goes underground. Trained to fight, driven by vengeance, and armed with nothing but her fists and her will, one relentless warrior takes the streets by storm — tearing through criminals, conspiracies, and anyone foolish enough to stand in her way.*Sworn to Justice* — no badge… no backup… no mercy.Fun FactsSworn to Justice is often categorized as an “erotic thriller meets martial arts action” hybrid, a niche genre that was surprisingly popular in the mid-1990s video market.The film was released during the peak VHS rental era, when action titles like this regularly outperformed small theatrical releases in video stores.Cynthia Rothrock performs nearly all of her own fight choreography, showcasing authentic Tang Soo Do and karate techniques rather than stylized wire work.The movie blends martial arts with noir-style detective elements, giving it a darker tone compared to Rothrock's earlier Hong Kong films.Several supporting cast members were real stunt performers, which helped make the fight scenes feel more physical and less choreographed.The film developed a late-night cable TV following on networks like USA Network and HBO Zone throughout the late 1990s and early 2000s.Rothrock fans often rank this among her most “adult-oriented” American roles, marking a tonal shift from her earlier PG-13 action vehicles.The movie features a synth-heavy 90s action score, typical of direct-to-video thrillers of the era.Collectors consider original VHS and DVD releases of the film minor cult items within martial arts movie circles.⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠thevhsstrikesback@gmail.com⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://linktr.ee/vhsstrikesback⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠

Recent news reporting indicates former President Bill Clinton and former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton have reversed their earlier refusal and agreed to provide testimony to the U.S. House of Representatives Oversight Committee about their past relationship with convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein. After months of resisting subpoenas — arguing the demands were legally invalid and politically motivated — and amid preparations for a possible contempt of Congress vote, the Clintons' legal team has now signaled willingness to sit for depositions or provide sworn interviews under terms to be negotiated with the committee's Republican chairman, Rep. James Comer. This shift comes just days before the full House was expected to consider holding them in contempt for failing to comply with earlier deposition subpoenas in the Epstein inquiry.The agreement to testify doesn't end the controversy: Comer has indicated that the Clintons' proposed terms — including unspecified dates and limits on scope in some offers — still require clarification before contempt proceedings are officially reconsidered or dropped. While neither Bill nor Hillary Clinton has been accused of wrongdoing in connection with Epstein's crimes, lawmakers have sought their testimony because of Bill Clinton's well-documented past social relationship with Epstein in the 1990s and early 2000s, and the broader public interest in transparency about Epstein's network of powerful associates.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:Bill, Hillary Clinton to testify on Jeffrey Epstein relationship -- cave to Comer ahead of contempt vote

In which Felicity, Luther and Tam confront Colin, while Jonathan resolves the truth of his capacity to speak Dante's great vernacular, as well as seeking out a decent set of cricket pads.

The Department of Justice's long-standing claim that Jeffrey Epstein and Ghislaine Maxwell acted alone is contradicted by the government's own records. Federal prosecutors explicitly acknowledged the existence of multiple co-conspirators as early as the 2007–2008 Florida investigation, including in the Non-Prosecution Agreement that granted immunity to Epstein and unnamed others. Sworn testimony, sealed filings, and investigative activity confirm that Epstein's crimes required an organized network of recruiters, schedulers, transporters, financial managers, and legal fixers operating across jurisdictions for years. Despite this, the DOJ has consistently narrowed its framing to portray the case as a two-person operation, avoiding any comprehensive conspiracy prosecution. That decision was not driven by a lack of evidence, but by institutional restraint, selective inquiry, and an unwillingness to confront the broader implications of its own past decisions.The DOJ continues to justify secrecy by invoking victim privacy, even though survivors themselves were excluded from key prosecutorial decisions and have repeatedly called for transparency. Redactions, sealed documents, and the refusal to name co-conspirators function less as victim protection and more as insulation for the government and its prior conduct. A full accounting would expose prosecutorial failures, political interference, and decades of discretionary choices that allowed Epstein to operate with impunity. The continuity of this behavior across administrations—including during the Trump DOJ—demonstrates that the issue is structural, not partisan. At bottom, the DOJ is not merely protecting Epstein's associates; it is protecting itself and the institutional role it played in creating, enabling, and shielding one of the most consequential criminal enterprises in modern history.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.com

This episode examines the killing of Alex Pretti, a 37-year-old ICU nurse shot by federal agents in Minneapolis, and the immediate effort by government officials to label him a dangerous gunman. Sworn witness testimony and video evidence directly contradict that narrative, describing an unarmed man holding a camera, trying to help someone on the ground, before being tackled and shot. Alex breaks down how this case shows government gaslighting in real time—and what it means when official stories collapse under oath.

AP correspondent Ed Donahue reports New Jersey has a new governor.

For the first time in United States History, the Commonwealth of Virginia has a female Governor. Abigail Spanberger took the oath of office at the Virginia State Capitol, a building steeped in history. As her husband and three daughters looked on, along with dozens of well-wishers, the Democrat vowed to work for unity. She said, “It is our duty to demonstrate for the generations to come that when faced with hardships, challenges, divisions, and even bitterness, we too forged a path forward and pursued progress.” Abigail Spanberger is now Virginia's 75th Governor.

Fifty times in a single day. That's how often JP Miller allegedly contacted his estranged wife Mica, according to the federal indictment. He tracked her with GPS devices. Posted intimate photos of her online without consent. Sabotaged her car. Then lied to FBI investigators about it.Mica Miller died on April 27, 2024 — 48 hours after serving him divorce papers. Her death was ruled a suicide. Now JP Miller faces federal cyberstalking charges.He pleaded not guilty in a Florence, South Carolina courtroom, then slipped out a back door while over seventy people waited and protesters chanted outside. Bond was set at $100,000 with strict conditions: ankle monitor, no firearms, no contact with victims, surrender of passport.Former FBI Special Agent Robin Dreeke — who ran the Bureau's Counterintelligence Behavioral Analysis Program — breaks down what the indictment reveals about predatory behavior and coercive control. Sworn affidavits describe years of isolation, financial manipulation, threats, and surveillance. Mica told police JP had "groomed" her since she was ten years old.His first wife Alison filed an affidavit alleging he confessed to affairs, hiring prostitutes, and being "sexually inappropriate" with underage church members. She says she went to police in 2015. They told her no one would believe her. Two civil lawsuits now accuse Miller of sexually assaulting minors in the late 1990s.And then there's Chris Skinner — a quadriplegic Army veteran who drowned in 2021, two weeks after allegedly confronting Miller about an affair with his wife. That wife is now married to JP Miller. He officiated Chris's funeral.Robin Dreeke analyzes the behavioral patterns, the control tactics, and what it takes to stop someone like this.#JPMiller #MicaMiller #JusticeForMica #RobinDreeJoin Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Robin Dreeke ran the FBI's Counterintelligence Behavioral Analysis Program. He's spent his career studying manipulation, deception, and how predators operate. When he looks at the JP Miller case, he sees a textbook pattern of coercive control — and an indictment that only scratches the surface.According to federal charges, Miller tracked his estranged wife Mica with GPS devices, contacted her more than 50 times in a single day, posted intimate photos of her online without consent, and sabotaged her car — then lied to FBI investigators about it. Mica Miller died on April 27, 2024, just 48 hours after serving him divorce papers.But the indictment doesn't capture the years that came before.Sworn affidavits describe isolation, financial manipulation, threats, and constant surveillance. Mica told police JP had "groomed" her since she was ten years old. His first wife Alison filed an affidavit alleging he confessed to affairs, hiring prostitutes, and being "sexually inappropriate" with underage church members. She says she went to police in 2015. They told her no one would believe her.Two civil lawsuits now accuse Miller of sexually assaulting minors in the late 1990s. Both name his father as a co-defendant and allege their churches enabled abuse for decades.And then there's Chris Skinner — a quadriplegic Army veteran who drowned in a Myrtle Beach pool on Labor Day 2021. His widow Suzie is now JP Miller's third wife. According to Alison's affidavit, Chris confronted JP about an alleged affair with Suzie just two weeks before he died. JP officiated Chris's funeral.Miller pleaded not guilty in federal court, then slipped out a back door while seventy people waited.

I'm Sean Tubbs and it's January 17, 2026.In this edition:* Abigail Spanberger is now Virginia's 75th Governor* There are several media reports that at least three members of the University of Virginia's Board of Visitors has resigned at Spanberger's request* The Virginia General Assembly has set the stage for a Constitutional amendment this spring for a Congressional redistricting with debate in both the House of Delegates and the Virginia SenateCharlottesville Community Engagement is a reader-supported publication.

It is my honor to be with all of you today,” said Governor Spanberger. “An inauguration ceremony like this one, with all its tradition and pageantry, represents something profound and in its origin, something uniquely American, the peaceful transfer of power.”Spanberger said the tradition began when George Washington, a Virginian, opted to step down after two terms as President. She thanked former Governor Glenn Youngkin for his service, as well as the time that former Lieutenant Governor Winsome Earle-Sears and former Attorney General Jason Miyares put in while in office.Spanberger also thanked generations that came before her that worked to ensure that women have the right not only to vote but also to hold office.“But who could only dream of a day like today?” Spanberger asked. “I stand before those who made it possible for a woman to also participate in that peaceful transfer of power and take that oath.”Spanberger noted that this is the 250th anniversary of the signing of the Declaration of Independence, drawing attention to Thomas Jefferson's role as Virginia's second governor. The first was Patrick Henry, who was sworn in in 1776.“Governor Henry is best known for his call against tyranny at St. John's Church, just up the road, words that helped launch the American Revolution,” Spanberger said. “But in his final public speech delivered in Virginia Years later in 1799, he made an appeal to his fellow citizens, warning against the divisions that were threatening our young country. His appeal remains timeless. He said, united we stand, divided we fall, Let us not split into factions which must destroy that union upon which our existence hangs.”Spanberger noted that the steps of the Virginia capitol were used by suffragists to lobby for the right for women to vote, a request denied for many years until 1920 when the U.S. Constitution was amended. She also noted that Virginia did not ratify the 19th Amendment until 1952.The new governor also noted that Virginia decided to call itself a Commonwealth upon independence and not just a state.“What's the difference?,” Spanberger said. “We, kids, pay attention. Someone may ask you this eventually. There's no difference. There is no difference in how we operate or function as a state. The difference lies in the intentions of our forefathers and the choice to indicate that here our government should serve the common good. That the voices of everyday Virginians, not kings, not aristocrats, not oligarchs, should. That the voices of everyday Virginian should drive us forward and that our prosperity depends on that union.”Turning to policy and the future, Spanberger said she would help guide Virginia during a time when the federal government is seeking to end support for rural hospitals, support for health care, and other outcomes sought by the current administration.“I know that some who are here today or watching from home may disagree with the litany in of challenges and the hardships that I laid out,” Spanberger said. “Your perspective may differ from mine, but that does not preclude us from working together where we may find common cause.”Spanberger said she looks forward to working with the General Assembly over the next four years and thanked her Cabinet for being willing to serve.“As we mark 250 years since the dawn of American freedom, what will our children, our grandchildren and their descendants write about this time in our Commonwealth's history? This chapter, 50, 100, 250 years from now, will they say that we let divisions fester or challenges overwhelm us? Or will they say that we stood up for what is right, fixed what is broken, and served the common good?”You can watch the entire inauguration ceremony on VPM or read the remarks on the website of the 75th Governor.Thanks for reading Charlottesville Community Engagement ! This post is public so feel free to share it.Several members of the Board of Visitors have resigned at Spanberger's requestThe Cavalier Daily is reporting that four members of the University of Virginia's Board of Visitors have resigned following a request from Governor Abigail Spanberger before she was sworn in.Shortly after Spanberger was elected, she asked the Board of Visitors to suspend a search for a new president following the resignation of Jim Ryan in June 2025. Former Governor Glenn Youngkin told her to stop interfering and the Board hired Scott Beardsley on December 19. Beardsley resigned as Dean of the Darden School of Business to take the job.The Board was already down to 12 appointees, all named by Youngkin, following the failure of five new nominees to get confirmed by the General Assembly.Rector Rachel Sheridan, Vice Rector Porter Wilkinson, and member Paul Manning all resigned on Friday. The New York Times reports that Doug Wetmore resigned today and their earlier reporting Spanberger has also asked Stephen Long to resign.The Cavalier Daily obtained a copy of Sheridan's resignation letter to Youngkin that blamed “political warfare” for the Board's inability to stabilize a University community where several groups expressed concern that Beardsley was appointed without their input. On Thursday, the Faculty Senate adopted a resolution calling for Spanberger to act.“The Faculty Senate calls upon Governor-elect Abigail Spanberger to exercise her statutory authority, review the actions of current Board members,remove those whose conduct has fallen short of the responsibilities of Visitors, and appoint qualified individuals to fill all vacancies on the Board,” reads one part of the resolution.The resolution also asks the new Board of Visitors to review the search process to determine if there need to be changes.As of publication, the Board of Visitors website has not yet been updated to reflect any resignations. However, Deputy Spokeswoman Bethanie Glover confirmed the four resignations.“President Beardsley and University leaders thank them for their service to UVA,” reads a brief statement sent in response to a query.The University of Virginia's Board of Visitors is next scheduled to meet on March 5. This is a developing story.Soon after being sworn in, Spanberger signed ten executive orders. One of them seeks reform of the way that members of governing bodies of state institutions of higher learning are appointed.

Under Virginia's Constitution, the legislature must agree to the amendment twice with a House of Delegates election in between before it goes to voters.Democrats took advantage of a special session from 2024 that had never ended to convene last October to hold the first reference in the House of Delegates and the Senate. Democrats then picked up an additional 13 seats in the House of Delegates.The House of Delegates passed the second reference on January 14 after about 20 minutes of debate. Delegate Rodney Willett (D-58) is the chief patron of House Joint Resolution 4 which will allow for a one-time redistricting outside of the decennial reapportionment process.“This keeps Virginia's options open,” Willett said. “This would enable us to preserve flexibility. If the people approve it and then we implement it, we could make redistricting decisions but there's no mandate here to do so.”Willett said the Virginia Redistricting Commission would do the work of redrawing Congressional lines in 2031 after the next Census.Delegate Terry Kilgore (R-45) said the General Assembly should not overturn the will of voters who approved a Constitutional amendment in 2020 to give the power to draw Congressional districts to the bipartisan Virginia Redistricting Committee.“We shouldn't care about what other states are doing,” Kilgore said. “We should care about what Virginia is doing, what message we're sending to our constituents.”Kilgore urged his colleagues to follow the lead of Indiana where a redistricting push failed in December. In both the Indiana House and the Senate, some Republicans joined with Democrats to vote against an effort to redraw lines. (learn more on Wikipedia)Delegate Wren Williams (R-47) rose to ask a question of Willett.“In 2020, nearly two-thirds of Virginia told us they wanted politics out of our map making,” Williams said. “Why would we reverse course now even under what is alleged to be a carve out for extraordinary emergencies?”Willett said this is a measure in response to a president who has demanded state institutions make changes for his benefit.“Our hand was forced here by the extraordinary actions coming from Washington by a president who contacted not one, not two, but multiple states and directed them to redistrict and change the election picture and essentially disenfranchise Virginia voters and other states that would vote Democratic,” Willett said. “We couldn't stand for that. When a bully punches you, sometimes you have to punch back.”Delegate Tom Garrett (R-56) argued that it would be Virginia Republicans who would be disenfranchised if lines are drawn to give Democrats an advantage. He ran through a list of states that are pursuing redistricting.“California, Missouri, North Carolina, Ohio, Texas, Utah, South Carolina, Virginia, Washington, Florida, Maryland, Alabama, Louisiana, New York, North Dakota have all either done this or are looking at doing it,” Garrett said. “You know what makes Virginia different? We are the only state on the list that I named that had a constitutional amendment that passed in 99 out of 100 House of Delegates districts five short years ago.”Delegate Mark Sickles (D-17) reminded his colleagues that the Virginia Redistricting Commission failed to complete their job in October 2021.“That commission did not work like we hoped it would,” Sickles said. “And having a bipartisan thing, a group of Democrats and Republicans and citizens come up with these districts, it did not work. The court drew these seats. So I don't know how much reverence we have for that. But this is an emergency. If this is not an emergency for American democracy, I don't know what is.”Delegate Mark Simon (D-13) noted that if Virginia voters don't want to change the districts, they can vote accordingly.“You know what happens after this resolution passes?” Simon asked. “There's a referendum. We get to go back to the voters again and they're the ones who get to decide what we do going forward.”The vote was 62 in favor, 33 against, one abstention, and four not voting.A look at what other states are up to:Before we go over to the Senate, let's go through some of what can be known about other states listed by Delegate Garrett.* In November, voters in California approved Proposition 50 with 64.42 percent of the vote that redrew lines to target several Republican incumbents. (learn more on Wikipedia)* In Missouri, the legislature approved a new map for Congressional boundaries last September intended to reduce Democratic representation but a citizens group called People not Politicians are trying to force a referendum. Take a look at this January 9, 2026 story in the Missouri Independent for more information.* The North Carolina legislature approved a map in October 2025 designed to make it more difficult for one Democratic incumbent to get re-elected. Learn more in this Associated Press article from then. The situation in Utah is different as there were already legal clouds over redistricting related to an attempt to create an independent commission in 2018. According to an article by Katie McKeller in the Utah News Dispatch, a judge ordered a new map that would likely lead to one Democratic seat. Republicans are challenging.* The Texas legislature adopted a map last August intended to give Republicans five additional seats and this was briefly thrown out by a federal court. The U.S. Supreme Court ruled voted 6-3 to allow the new map to proceed. (learn more on Wikipedia)* The Ohio Redistricting Commission adopted a new map last October that gives Republicans an advantage. They did so before the legislature was set to do it themselves, reports Jeremy Pelzer for cleveland.com.* Some Democrats in Washington want to redraw the maps, but Scott Greenstone of KUOW reports there are obstacles to getting that done in 2026.* The situation in Louisiana is more complicated and I refer you to Ballotpedia.* New York Governor Kathy Hochul is exploring the idea of redistricting, reports Kate Lisa for Spectrum News.* North Dakota only has one Congressional District making redistricting irrelevant. Learn more on Ballotpedia.Senate DebateThe Virginia Senate took about 40 minutes on January 16 to go through the debate with Senator Christopher Head (R-3) introducing several amendments to House Joint Resolution 4. He made many of the same arguments as his colleagues in the House, arguing that voters had agreed to place the power of redistricting to a commission after the General Assembly gave them that choice in 2020.“Some of you weren't here then, but if you voted for it then and you thought that was a good idea because it was your ethics and your beliefs and they were foundational and fundamental,” Head said. “But now, because you hate the man that's in the White House, and that's really the only thing that's behind this, is that you hate the man that's in the White House and you want to blunt his power, then we're going to politically gerrymander and take away the rights of the people to have representation that represents them.”Senator Scott Surovell (D-34) said that Head's amendments should have been made on first reference. He said he did not support the creation of the Virginia Redistricting Commission but he could understand how those who did might change their mind now.“They didn't imagine that we're going to have a hyper-partisan fascist ideologue telling state legislatures around the country to basically redesign their districts to maximize his own personal political power,” Surovell said. “And to the extent anybody even thought about that, I think most people thought that there were people of principle in the Republican party that would stand up to it because they cared about the rule of law or system of government preserving democracy.”Head did not receive enough votes for his amendments.Surovell said he wished he did not have to support this move but felt there was no other choice.“When other states manipulate their maps to gain unfair advantage, we don't just harm,” Surovell said. “They don't just harm their own voters. They also harm Virginia's ability to have its fair representation in Congress. We're simply seeking to level the playing field in Congress which has already been. Which is being tilted against us and our state.Senator Mark Peake (R-22) wanted to know what would happen if voters approve the redistricting.“Do we come back into special session after the citizens have voted to draw the new congressional districts?” Peake asked.Surovell said there are still remaining questions to be answered but the maps would be available for the public to review before the referendum.Peake said if this passes, Democrats will do what they can to hold on to power.“You're going to do away with bipartisan redistricting,” Peake said. “You're going to try and put us in a 10 to 1 Democrat to Republican congressional districts, and then you're going to again resume gerrymandering the entire Commonwealth.”Senator Ryan McDougle (R-26) urged Democrats in Virginia to follow what some of the Republicans did in the Indiana legislature when they stopped a gerrymander.“Republicans in Indiana stood up to political pressure and said we're not going to play these political games,” McDougle said.In the Indiana House, 57 Republicans voted for the redistricting and 12 voted against, joining 29 Democrats. In the Senate, 21 Republicans joined 10 Democrats against the redistricting, and 19 Republicans voted for it.Senator Bill Stanley (R-7) pointed out that President Trump is unpopular, citing Democrats picking up 13 seats in the Virginia House of Delegates this past November.“It seems to me what this kerfuffle is all about is because the current president has encouraged some states to change their congressional makeups and the lines,” Stanley said. “The last time I checked, when he was elected in 2016. In 2018, Madam President, the Democrats picked up, I think 41 seats in Congress.”That appears to be accurate per Wikipedia.Senator Schuyler VanValkenburg (D-16) agreed that Trump is unpopular and said that is why is is seeking to redraw lines across the country.“As is so often true over the last 10 years of politics, every accusation is a confession,” VanValkenburg said. “The other side mistakes their inability to. To push back against the craziness of our current president for how we will act or are acting.”The vote in the senate was 21 to 18 with one abstention.What questions do you have?(image) The current Congressional lines in Virginia.

I also got caught up in the moment. I remember attending the inauguration of Governor Mark Warner as a reporter back when that happened.At the time I really thought I would have a career in public radio, but my desire for longer and longer stories met up against their need for shorter and shorter ones. When it was clear I was not going to get a job in the field, I tried to create my own. After fits and starts, here we are.I'm not going to any gala or celebration today. I'm going to keep working as that's what I want to do more. I've got to get the Week Ahead out tomorrow, write two stories for C-Ville Weekly and finish up a cover story article that I am procrastinating on. Never underestimate the power of procrastination, dear reader!But I need some music to get me through and the DJs from Buenos Aires strike again! This is a public episode.

CTL Script/ Top Stories of January 16th Publish Date: January 16th   Pre-Roll: From the Ingles Studio Welcome to the Award-Winning Cherokee Tribune Ledger Podcast  Today is Friday, January 16th and Happy Birthday to Albert Pujols I’m Chris Culwell and here are the stories Cherokee is talking about, presented by Times Journal Woodstock elected officials sworn in to serve new terms Kemp to build roads, bridges during final year as Georgia governor Canton man charged in Christmas shopping center fire Plus, Leah McGrath from Ingles Markets on raw milk We’ll have all this and more coming up on the Cherokee Tribune-Ledger Podcast, and if you’re looking for Community news, we encourage you to listen and subscribe!  Commercial: INGLES 1 STORY 1: Woodstock elected officials sworn in to serve new terms Woodstock kicked off the week with a swearing-in ceremony on Monday, welcoming back familiar faces and appointing new ones to key boards. Municipal Court Judge Robert Tidwell swore in Mayor Michael Caldwell and Council Members Warren Johnson (Ward 1), Colin Ake (Ward 3), and Brian Wolfe (Ward 5)—all re-elected in November. Caldwell also administered oaths to Lisa Morton, Spencer Nix, and Melissa Madigan for the Downtown Development Authority, and Rob Hogan, Ali Najafi, and Chase Roth for the Planning Commission. “Public trust is no small thing,” Caldwell said. “Congratulations to everyone stepping up to serve.” The council also made appointments to the Ethics Board and Parks and Recreation Advisory Board. STORY 2: Kemp to build roads, bridges during final year as Georgia governor Gov. Brian Kemp isn’t coasting through his final year in office. Nope, he’s dropping over $2 billion into highway upgrades south and east of Atlanta—part of a $6 billion infrastructure push during his tenure. Speaking at the Georgia Chamber’s Eggs and Issues event Wednesday, Kemp credited “conservative budgeting” for making it all possible. “While some politicians just talk about affordability,” he said, “we’re actually doing something.” Big-ticket items? $1.8 billion for express lanes on I-75 in Henry County, $200 million to overhaul Georgia 316, and $250 million for local road grants. Oh, and $50 million to tackle homelessness ahead of the World Cup. Meanwhile, Lt. Gov. Burt Jones and House Speaker Jon Burns are laser-focused on taxes—property, income, you name it. Burns even floated eliminating homestead property taxes statewide. It’s a busy year for Georgia politics, to say the least. STORY 3: Canton man charged in Christmas shopping center fire  A Canton teenager is facing serious charges after allegedly setting fire to a vacant shopping center on Christmas Day. Firefighters were called to the Canton Village shopping center on Marietta Road around 3:15 p.m., finding smoke pouring from the roof and flames inside. Crews worked quickly—hoses out, building searched—but thankfully, no one was inside, and no injuries were reported. After an investigation involving fire officials, Canton Police, and the Cherokee Sheriff’s Office, 19-year-old Blake Louis Bishop was arrested Tuesday. He’s charged with first-degree arson, second-degree criminal damage, and loitering. The city-owned shopping center, set for demolition, required 30 firefighters and hours to fully extinguish the blaze. We have opportunities for sponsors to get great engagement on these shows.

Break: INGLES 2 STORY 4: Morales breaks record, Gold returns for New Years Kickoff meet At the New Year’s Kickoff swim meet, held Jan. 9-11 at UGA’s Ramsey Center, Mila Morales of Chattahoochee Gold shattered a 19-year-old club record in the girls’ 8U 50-yard freestyle. Her time? A blazing 30.95 seconds, dethroning Lauren Case’s long-standing mark. The meet wasn’t scored—more of a post-holiday tune-up—but Chattahoochee Gold swimmers still made waves. Ava Gana stole the show with five wins, including the 12U 400 IM (4:56.31) and 200 backstroke (2:20.22). Meanwhile, Ella Malave snagged gold in the 13+ 100 breaststroke (1:05.96), and Bryston Burks dropped six seconds to win the 12U 200 breaststroke (2:48.08). Plenty of top-10 finishes, too—this team’s on fire. FALCONS: The Atlanta Falcons officially introduced Matt Ryan as their new president of football on Tuesday, and honestly, it feels like a full-circle moment. At the press conference in Flowery Branch, Ryan—who spent 14 seasons as the face of the franchise—spoke about his “unfinished business” with the team. “Since I was drafted, my mission’s been the same: help this organization win championships. We came close, had some success, but I believe we’ll get there,” he said. After retiring and working as a CBS Sports analyst, Ryan said he wasn’t looking for a new job—unless it was with the Falcons. Now, he’ll report directly to owner Arthur Blank, focusing on hiring a head coach and GM who share a unified vision. STORY 5: Georgia GOP senators target Raffensperger over voter registration lists  A group of Georgia Republican senators is pressuring Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger to hand over the state’s unredacted voter registration list to the Trump administration—a move Raffensperger flatly opposes. His reasoning? State law. Sharing private voter details like Social Security numbers, birthdates, and driver’s license info is a no-go, he says. The DOJ, meanwhile, has been requesting voter lists from all 50 states, claiming it’s about ensuring accuracy. They even sued Georgia last month over the issue. The Senate resolution, led by Lt. Gov. Burt Jones’ allies, is mostly symbolic. But it accuses Raffensperger of “obstruction” for only providing a public version of the list. Raffensperger’s office fired back, saying he’s already complied as far as state law allows. “He won’t break the law or risk voters’ private information,” his office said. The DOJ’s lawsuit heads to federal court in Macon later this month.

In addition, numerous homes and businesses were vandalized or burned in the attacks, which struck the villages of Zah, Mubang Yadul, and Kijing. Many villagers fled for their safety. The attackers reportedly fled into the bush before security personnel arrived. The attacks, which occurred days after the U.S. struck ISIS-affiliated Muslim militants in northwest Nigeria, were the latest in a string of assaults on villages in the area to occur around Christmas. MN employees: "Gov. Tim Walz is 100% responsible for massive fraud." Republican Senator John Kennedy of Louisiana took to the Senate floor to address how it's possible that Somalis in Minnesota were able to defraud taxpayers to the tune of $1 billion, possibly $9 billion, through fake non-profits. KENNEDY: “Here's what the Legislative Auditor in Minnesota said: ‘The threat of litigation and the negative press affected how the state politicians use their regulatory power.' “And here's what a fraud investigator in the Attorney General's office said: ‘There is a perception that forcefully tackling this issue would cause political backlash from the Somali community, which is a core voting block for Democrats.' “One of the other witnesses in the fraud investigation said, ‘Look, the 80,000-voting block folks with Somali ancestry, you got to have their votes to win in Minneapolis. And if you're a Democrat, if you can't win Minneapolis, you can't win in the state.' So, the politicians did nothing.” Senator Kennedy quoted from a social media post in which hundreds of employees of the Minnesota Department of Human Service weighed in. KENNEDY: “Don't just take my word for it, and don't blame the state employees. They tried. In fact, recently the state employees, they just said, ‘Look, we've had enough.' Several hundred employees from the Minnesota Department of Human Service, who administered this program, they posted this. I'm quoting now. '[Democratic] Governor Tim Walz is 100% responsible for massive fraud in Minnesota. We let Tim Walz know of fraud early on.' That's employees talking, hoping for a partnership and stopping fraud. ‘But no, we got the opposite response. Tim Walz systematically retaliated against whistleblowers.'” Jeremiah 9:6 says, “'You live in the midst of deception; in their deceit they refuse to acknowledge Me,'” declares the LORD.” Additional massive fraud at Somali-run day care centers in Minnesota In a related story, YouTuber Nick Shirley, age 23, has exposed what appears to be massive additional fraud in taxpayer-subsidized, Somali-run day care centers. This has prompted the Department of Health and Human Services to announce that it is derailing the $185-million gravy train.  HHS Deputy Secretary Jim O'Neil said on X, “We have frozen all child care payments to the state of Minnesota,” reports The Blaze. O'NEIL:” “Intrepid journalists have made shocking and credible allegations of extensive fraud in Minnesota's child care programs. We believe the state of Minnesota has allowed scammers and fake day cares to siphon millions of taxpayer dollars over the past decade.” Muslim NYC Mayor sworn in with Quran Incoming New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani took his New Year's Eve oath of office on his grandfather's Quran and a 200-year-old Quaran from the New York Public Library. It marked the first time a New York City mayor used Islam's misguided text to be sworn in, reports the Associated Press. The 34-year-old Democrat became mayor in a long-closed subway station beneath City Hall, the first Muslim, the first South Asian and the first African-born person to hold that position. Most of Mamdani's predecessors were sworn in on a Bible, although the oath to uphold the federal, state, and city constitutions does not require the use of any religious text. In addition, Republican Senator Ted Cruz of Texas has directly labeled Mayor Mamdami a Communist.  Posting on X, Cruz wrote, “When communists rule, individual rights—invariably—are taken away.” Listen to the Big Apple Mayor's own words. MAMDAMI: “We will replace the frigidity of rugged individualism with the warmth of collectivism.” CT Governor to give $10 million to abortion giant Planned Parenthood Connecticut Democrat Governor Ned Lamont has announced he intends to give $10.4 million of taxpayers' money to Planned Parenthood of Southern New England, in order to compensate for Trump's decision to defund the abortion giant, reports LifeSiteNews.com. The Connecticut Mirror reported the governor's latest spending proposal, part of $41 million to make up for lost federal funds for a variety of so-called “services,” bringing the total committed for that purpose up to almost $168 million. Parents: School cancels Christmas concert over “Jesus” lyrics And finally, parents in Fonda, New York are furious after the annual elementary school Christmas concert was canceled. Many suspect it's because a teacher was offended by the name of Jesus, reports Christian talk show host Todd Starnes. Children at Fonda-Fultonville Elementary School had worked very hard to learn songs for the concert.  But there was one particular song that caused a bit of controversy. The song is called, “Oh, What a Special Night” and it tells the birth of Christ from the perspective of the animals around the manger scene. At the end of each verse, the children sang, “Thank you God for Baby Jesus.” The school district confirmed that the song was removed from the concert under guidance from their legal department.  Shortly after that, the concert was canceled. On Facebook, one parent wrote, “So tired of this woke culture, where one parent can call in and complain, and ruin it for the entire district.” Another said, “It is CHRISTmas. If someone doesn't agree with that, then they don't need to participate, and their parents don't need to attend. … The school has ruined the countless hours of practice the other kids have put in, as well as the joy and excitement they feel when they see their families in the audience. All of that happiness has been taken away.” Isaiah 9:6 declares, “For unto us a Child is born, unto us a Son is given, and the government will be on His shoulders. And He will be called Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God, Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace."

This is the noon All Local for Thursday, January 1, 2026

Retired FBI Special Agent Robin Dreeke, who ran the Bureau's Counterintelligence Behavioral Analysis Program, joins us to analyze two cases that expose how predatory and crisis behavior escalates inside families while the people closest to it feel powerless to intervene. First, the Nick Reiner case. The son of legendary director Rob Reiner now faces two counts of first-degree murder in the stabbing deaths of both his parents at their Brentwood home. Dreeke examines the disturbing timeline that emerged in the hours before the killings: erratic behavior at Conan O'Brien's holiday party, repetitive questioning of celebrities like Bill Hader and Jane Fonda, an explosive public argument between father and son, and Nick's reported four a.m. check-in to a Santa Monica hotel where staff later discovered blood-soaked sheets and a shower full of blood. We discuss what these behavioral patterns reveal about escalation and crisis states, and what this tragedy exposes about the limits of intervention even when families see catastrophe coming. Then we turn to the JP Miller indictment. A federal grand jury just charged the Myrtle Beach pastor with cyberstalking and making false statements to investigators in connection with his wife Mica Miller, who died in April 2024. According to the indictment, Miller posted intimate photos of her online without consent, placed tracking devices on her vehicle, contacted her over fifty times in a single day, and lied to federal investigators about sabotaging her car. Sworn affidavits describe years of coercive control, isolation, and surveillance. Two civil lawsuits now accuse Miller of sexually assaulting minors in the late 1990s. And another death looms over the case: Chris Skinner, a quadriplegic veteran who drowned in 2021 after allegedly confronting Miller about an affair. Dreeke breaks down the manipulation tactics, the warning signs, and what it takes to stop predators who hide behind family and faith. #NickReiner #RobReiner #MicheleReiner #JPMiller #MicaMiller #RobinDreeke #FBI #TrueCrime #BehavioralAnalysis #BrentwoodMurders #JusticeForMica #CoerciveControl #HollywoodTragedy #MentalHealthCrisis #CriminalPsychology #SolidRockChurch #FBIExpert #TrueCrimePodcast #FamilyViolence #PredatorBehavior Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Former FBI Special Agent Robin Dreeke — who ran the Bureau's Counterintelligence Behavioral Analysis Program — joins me to break down the psychology behind the JP Miller case and what the federal indictment reveals about predatory behavior and coercive control. A federal grand jury just indicted Myrtle Beach pastor JP Miller on charges of cyberstalking and making false statements to investigators. The charges stem from a documented pattern of harassment against his wife Mica Miller in the months before her death in April 2024. According to the indictment, Miller posted intimate photos of her online without consent, placed tracking devices on her vehicle, contacted her over fifty times in a single day, and lied to federal investigators about sabotaging her car. But the indictment only scratches the surface. Sworn affidavits describe years of coercive control — isolation, financial manipulation, threats, surveillance. Mica told police JP had "groomed" her since she was a child. His first wife says she went to police in 2015 after he confessed to being inappropriate with underage church members. She says they told her no one would believe her. Two civil lawsuits now accuse Miller of sexually assaulting minors in the late 1990s. Both name his father as a co-defendant and allege their churches enabled abuse for decades. And then there's the other death. Chris Skinner — a quadriplegic Army veteran — drowned in 2021, two weeks after allegedly confronting Miller about an affair with his wife. That wife is now married to JP Miller. Robin Dreeke has spent his career studying manipulation, deception, and how predators operate. In this interview, he analyzes the behavioral patterns in this case — the pulpit announcement, the documented control tactics, the lies that caught Miller, and what it takes to stop someone like this. #MicaMiller #JPMiller #RobinDreeke #FBI #JusticeForMica #CoerciveControl #TrueCrime #BehavioralAnalysis #SolidRockChurch #CrimePsych Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?
