professorjrod@gmail.comIn this episode of Technology Tap: CompTIA Study Guide, my students dive into the notorious Cambridge Analytica scandal and its profound impact on data privacy and technology ethics. Our students break down how seemingly harmless personality quizzes exploited Facebook data, creating psychological profiles that influenced elections worldwide. This discussion not only explores real-world technology applications but also enhances your understanding of data security—an essential topic for IT skills development and CompTIA exam prep. Tune in to expand your knowledge of technology education and the critical role of informed consent in today's digital landscape.We walk through the mechanics: the Open Graph loophole, the “This Is Your Digital Life” app, and the shift from demographic targeting to OCEAN-based psychographics that amplified fear, duty, or curiosity depending on your traits. The conversation connects the dots from early experiments with Ted Cruz to huge ad impression volumes tied to the 2016 cycle, explores coordination concerns with super PACs, and examines why these tactics made public debate harder and disinformation easier to spread. Along the way, our students highlight the whistleblowers who surfaced the practice and the global footprint that reached Brexit, the Caribbean, and beyond.The fallout mattered. Facebook faced FTC, SEC, and UK ICO actions; Cambridge Analytica went bankrupt; and Meta tightened API access to cut off friend data collection. We also dig into the privacy wave that followed—GDPR in Europe, CCPA in California—and what those laws do and don't fix. The core takeaway is clear: ethical data practices and transparent advertising aren't nice-to-haves; they're the guardrails for a healthy digital public square. If personal data can be turned into political power, then consent, purpose limits, and accountability must be visible and enforceable.Listen for a clear, step-by-step breakdown, plain-language answers to tough questions, and practical context you can use to evaluate political ads and platform policies. If this conversation sharpened your thinking, subscribe, share the show with a friend, and leave a review telling us how you protect your data online.Support the showArt By Sarah/DesmondMusic by Joakim KarudLittle chacha ProductionsJuan Rodriguez can be reached atTikTok @ProfessorJrodProfessorJRod@gmail.com@Prof_JRodInstagram ProfessorJRod

In what could be described as a fever dream of an episode, Piers Morgan Uncensored sums up 2025 with a wild assortment of topics and guests. There's a lot to argue about over Christmas dinner this year - we got a new American Pope and a new US President, who began the year with a ‘Revolution of Common Sense' - and ended it in a MAGA civil war. Snow White sacked the Seven Dwarves and became the most hated movie of all time - and somehow that wasn't even this year's biggest big screen disaster, as the Coldplay couple showed. The UK went mad about flags, the US went even madder over Elon's apparently fascist salute and the JFK Files were released in a triumph for transparency - but the Epstein Files were not. Piers Morgan welcomes his 2025 review panel; Gary Buechler AKA Nerdrotic, The Verdict with Ted Cruz co-host Ben Ferguson, author of The Case For Cancel Culture Ernest Owens and Uncensored studio contributors Esther Krakue and James Barr. Internet meme sensation Ugandan broadcaster Simon Kaggwa Njala also drops by to ask his most famous probing question, plus Piers speaks to Louis Provost, the brother of Pope Leo - who gives a big confession. Piers also speaks to This Is Spinal Tap and The Simpsons star Harry Shearer about the loss of his friend, director Rob Reiner.

Tucker Carlson made headlines this week with a explosive claim on the Judge Nap podcast, stating that a member of Congress informed him lawmakers were briefed on Tuesday that President Trump would announce a war against Venezuela during his address to the nation on Wednesday at 9 p.m. Eastern Time. Ahram Online and Marca reports detailed Carlson's warning that the war is coming amid Trump's total blockade of sanctioned Venezuelan oil tankers and the largest U.S. naval armada ever assembled in South America, escalating tensions with Nicolas Maduro's regime. This sparked widespread reactions, with YouTube clips from Democracy Now amplifying the buzz and international figures like Mexico's President Claudia Sheinbaum urging the UN to prevent bloodshed, while China condemned U.S. bullying.Mediaite's 2025 Most Influential in News Media list ranked Carlson at number 46, praising his independent success with over five million YouTube subscribers, his subscription service, and a recent live tour featuring guests like Alex Jones and Donald Trump Jr. The ranking notes his growing yet divisive influence, including heated interviews with Senator Ted Cruz and Nick Fuentes that drew millions of views and backlash over conspiracy theories and white nationalism, fueling debates on the Republican Party's post-Trump direction.No new legal or professional developments emerged, but Carlson's Venezuela comments underscore his role in shaping MAGA foreign policy discussions, positioning him as a key voice challenging mainstream narratives on interventions. His ongoing media ventures continue to thrive without Fox News backing, maintaining national relevance through provocative public appearances.Thanks for listening to the Tucker Carlson News Tracker podcast—please subscribe for more updates.

A rough Cowboys game, one epic curb trip, and then straight into the numbers that matter: we unpack new post-election polling showing a city that believes it's on the wrong track and still reelects the incumbent by a wide margin. The data is bracing. Crime and homelessness top voter concerns, majorities expect little improvement, and yet identity beats performance. We walk through why early decisions, negative partisanship, and team-first voting flipped what should have been a challenger advantage into a decisive status-quo win.From there, we connect the dots to statewide prospects and national currents. If Albuquerque remains a 20-plus point anchor, a Republican can't compete without reshaping the urban map—through smarter registration, better GOTV, and a concrete agenda on affordability, insurance costs, and public safety. We also track a subtle but important shift: more Republicans now identify with the party label rather than the MAGA brand, hinting at a real 2028 fight instead of a coronation. JD Vance remains formidable, but we explore why figures like Marco Rubio, Josh Hawley, Ted Cruz, and Glenn Youngkin could push a vibrant primary that tempers the party in the fire.We don't shy away from media critique, either. A staged “gotcha” moment aimed at Erika Kirk crosses a line, raising questions about fairness and the incentives driving broadcast drama. On the business front, Ford's pullback on the Lightning offers a sober lesson: EVs will win on performance, charging speed, and range, not on mandates. And a Heisman speech from Fernando Mendoza brings it home with a reminder that toughness can be quiet, humility travels far, and belief plus discipline still move mountains.If you value data over noise and want a clear view of where politics, policy, and culture collide, this one's for you.

Former Dallas Congressman Colin Allred's pivot from a second run for the U.S. Senate is only one of the results of the late-breaking announcement of a Senate run by fellow Dallas lawmaker Jasmine Crockett last week. Allred is now in a primary contest with Congresswoman Julie Johnson, interestingly the official who replaced Allred upon his departure from the U.S. House as he challenged Senator Ted Cruz in 2024. We're glad to accommodate Congressman Allred's request to join us and share his perspective on the fast-changing primary picture in Texas.Learn more about Congressman Colin Allred's campaign at https://colinallred.com/.Thanks for listening!

Bloomdaddy talks to Senator Ted Cruz, Chris Fedor on the Cavs, Rob Walgate on politics, Jimmy Watkins and also celebrates the news of Paul Hoynes winning the 2026 BBWAA Career Excellence award.

ICE and Border Patrol are kidnapping people in the suburbs near New Orleans based on racial profiling—it's like the South of 70 years ago. Mini Greg Bovino cares far more about his video team capturing him menacing and harassing people going about their lives than he does about due process and the Fourth Amendment. But despite her own pinup-style social media spreads, Trump may be readying to dump Kristi Noem from DHS. Meanwhile, the administration keeps creating new excuses for why it killed the two shipwrecked men near Venezuela, while also withholding key information. Plus, Trump is handing out more welfare checks to farmers, MTG says MAGA is not America First, the Dems get another shot this week on the affordability issue, Colin Allred may have been unwisely pushed out of the Texas Senate race, and Tim and Bill share a rare ‘you gotta hand it to Ted Cruz' moment. Bill Kristol joins Tim Miller. show notes Adrian's scoop on how Trump may be moving on from Noem Tim's 'Bulwark Take' on the protests and raids in greater NOLA Bill's "Bulwark on Sunday" with Sen. Warner on the boat strikes Monday's "Morning Shots" Cruz's good tweet 

Today we bring you a powerful, in-depth conversation with one of Washington's most seasoned conservative leaders, Dr. Paul Teller, former Executive Director of the Republican Study Committee, Chief of Staff to Senator Ted Cruz, and senior legislative aide in President Trump's White House. From the halls of Congress to the West Wing, Paul pulls back the curtain on what it really takes to fight for conservative principles in a divided capital. He shares the difference between serving in the majority and the minority, the biggest policy wins and heartbreaking disappointments of the past 25 years, how conservatives plan to restore strong school-choice provisions in 2026, and why America's unwavering support for Israel is not just right — it's essential to our own national security. With unflinching clarity, Paul and Donald tackle the truth about the Israel-Hamas war, the success of the Abraham Accords, the Palestinian rejection of peace, and the real meaning behind "from the river to the sea." A candid, no-spin discussion on faith, freedom, fiscal responsibility, and the future of the conservative movement with one of the men who helped shape it for over two decades. This is an episode you don't want to miss on CURE America with Donald T. Eason!

WABC Host Brian Kilmeade joins Sid to discuss potential political shifts, speculating on Ted Cruz's and JD Vance's roles in the Republican Party, touching on issues like anti-Semitism, and internal divides within the party.

Democrats have signaled that they're running in the 2026 midterms on “affordability.” This week, Trump unleashed several angry, wild-eyed rants about their “affordability” message. In one, he raged that this message is a “con job.” In  another, he seethed that it's a “Democrat scam.” He's angry because these attacks are working, and because he knows it means the GOP's midterm woes are getting much worse. And right on cue, in this week's special election in Tennessee that Republicans won, the vote shifted 13 points to the left relative to 2024. That shocked Republicans into a panic: Representative Elise Stefanik openly fretted that Republicans are “underperforming.” Senator Ted Cruz urged Republicans to sound the “alarm.” And a senior GOP strategist called the result a “flashing red warning.” We talked to Amanda Litman, the president of Run for Something, which is recruiting candidates across the country. She digs into the special election results to explain why they're good news, details how Democrats can keep the momentum going through 2026, and reflects on what could still go wrong.

There's a certain, very specific green liqueur that's become difficult to find in the past few years… impossible in some places. Jessica Leigh Graves, the founder of Violet Crown Spirits in Austin Texas, set out to make a “twin” (her word) of this bottle, and did pretty damn well for herself.

Back in October, Nick Fuentes, the Gen Z white nationalist influencer, was trending in the news after a leaked Young Republicans chat revealed how his ideas were taking hold in some conservative circles. Then, just a week or so later, Fuentes sat down for an interview with Tucker Carlson. That 2-hour interview triggered a crisis amongst the GOP's top brass that pitted major conservative influencers against each other, and garnered headlines declaring the start of a Republican “civil war.” For this midweek podcast extra, host Micah Loewinger called up Zack Beauchamp, senior correspondent for Vox, to wade through the fallout around Fuentes and Carlson, and break down what this tells us about antisemitism in American politics.  On the Media is supported by listeners like you.

We all know that the United States ships billions of dollars to Israel, but in this segment Jimmy explains how the true figure is much higher than most of us have been led to believe, and that U.S. financial support for Israel has totaled about $1.6 trillion since 1973. He and Americans' Comedian Kurt Metzger criticize how taxpayer funds—through direct military aid, state pension investments in Israeli bonds, and emergency spending—are allegedly prioritized for foreign conflicts rather than addressing economic struggles at home.  They argue that both political parties enable this imbalance, pointing to examples like Senator Ted Cruz's over-the-top pro-Israel remarks as evidence of bipartisan subservience to foreign interests. The segment closes by contrasting America's deteriorating infrastructure and social welfare with the vast sums directed overseas, framing the issue as one of class and systemic corruption rather than left versus right politics. Plus segment on Candace Owens' growing popularity since being fired by Ben Shapiro and video of Ukrainian President Zelensky acknowledging just days after the Russian invasion that many western powers wanted to use Ukraine just to weaken Russia. Also featuring Mike MacRae and Stef Zamorano. Plus a phone call from Andrew Cuomo and Zohran Mamdani!

1. Hostage Remains and Psychological Warfare The podcast opens with a news story from the Jerusalem Post about Hamas returning partial remains to Israel. These remains were not from known hostages, which the speaker describes as a form of psychological torture against Israeli families. The Red Cross acted as an intermediary in the handover, but Hamas did not specify whose remains were being returned. 2. Personal Reflections and Pilgrimage Ben then shares that this trip to Israel is a spiritual journey, visiting sites related to Jesus and expressing feelings of safety and peace in Jerusalem. Encourages others to visit Israel, stating it feels safe despite the conflict. 3. Rise of Antisemitism in the U.S. A major theme is the alleged rise of antisemitism among American conservatives. Specific figures mentioned include Candace Owens, Tucker Carlson, and Nick Fuentes, accused of downplaying Israel’s importance as a U.S. ally. The speaker references Senator Ted Cruz, who warned of a “growing cancer” of antisemitism on the political right and urged Christian leaders to confront it. 4. Media Criticism Ben criticizes mainstream media for allegedly portraying Israel as the aggressor and failing to tell the stories of Israeli victims and hostages. 5. Support for Donald Trump Ben praises Donald Trump’s leadership, particularly his role in the Abraham Accords and efforts to secure the release of hostages. Expresses gratitude from Israelis for Trump’s support and contrasts it with previous U.S. administrations. Please Hit Subscribe to this podcast Right Now.

1. Kennedy’s Humor and Persona (GRAB SEN KENNEDY'S NEW BOOK HERE!) Kennedy is a "Southern trial lawyer with a sharp wit", often underestimated due to his accent and folksy demeanor. He’s known for devastating cross-examinations of judicial nominees, both Democrat and Republican. His humor is often biting and irreverent, with jokes about colleagues like Chuck Schumer, Mitch McConnell, and even Ted Cruz. 2. Behind-the-Scenes Senate Culture Kennedy compares the Senate to junior high school, full of cliques, egos, and petty drama. He shares stories of interactions with nominees who failed basic constitutional knowledge. The book aims to demystify the Senate and show how disconnected Washington can be from everyday Americans. 3. Critique of Washington Kennedy argues that Washington lacks common sense, and that change is only possible by removing entrenched interests (“pigs out of the creek”). He emphasizes the importance of storytelling in politics, using humor to make serious points. 4. Praise and Promotion Cruz and Ferguson praise Kennedy’s storytelling and comedic timing. The book is a very giftable item, especially for those with conservative leanings or frustrations with Washington.
