In the early 1990s, a contractor working alone in a rural Texas home experienced something he couldn't explain.It began with movement in an empty room — subtle enough to question, but impossible to ignore. Then came a sudden chill… and a faint sound that didn't seem to come from any one direction.When he mentioned it to the homeowner, he didn't get disbelief. He got a name.The house sits near a creek and an old cemetery, and the story attached to it goes back decades. But what unsettled him most wasn't fear. It was the feeling that he wasn't unwelcome.Some spirits make themselves known in ways that don't feel threatening — just present.Love real ghost stories?

In this true scary story, we hear from Breanna. Growing up in Waco, Texas, our caller believed the strange activity in her home was just childhood imagination until it followed her across state lines, through new houses, and into adulthood. From shadow figures and whispered voices to a terrifying shared encounter in an Amish home… and then from violent energy inside her brother's room to a presence that seemed to want her at Cameron Park's infamous Witches Castle… the experiences continued spanning nearly 30 years. This is a layered, deeply personal account of recurring entities, drained energy, and something that may have attached itself long ago.You can get these ad-free through ScaryPlus.com free for 14 days, then 4.99 per month.

Today Allie discusses her impressions of Trump's State of the Union address, praising its patriotic tone and strategic juxtaposition of Democratic and Republican policies. She highlights key moments, including Trump's condemnation of illegal immigration, his proposal for Delilah's Law, and his support for IVF, which she criticizes due to ethical concerns. Allie also commends Trump's stance on crime, citing a 125-year low in murders, and his opposition to indoctrinating children into gender ideology. Trump also hosted special guests, including Erika Kirk and the USA men's hockey team. Allie criticizes Democrats for their lack of support on issues that should be unifying and emphasizes the importance of policy in protecting American citizens.

Legal Team, we're diving back into one of the wildest stories we've ever covered: an alleged fake-pregnancy scheme that ultimately ensnared a former Bachelor. In this continuation, we zoom out from Clayton Echard and unpack the disturbing pattern that allegedly came before him, including more fabricated pregnancies, more stolen ultrasounds, restraining orders, and escalating legal warfare. We break down the men Laura Owens targeted before Clayton then review the court's detailed findings in Clayton's case and why this saga has now shifted from civil chaos to 14 felony criminal charges. This case isn't just messy, it's a masterclass in how the legal system can be weaponized. What's On the Docket? Laura's first two targets: Michael Marini and Greg Gillespie Stolen ultrasound images, fabricated medical records, and escalating restraining orders Key findings from Clayton Echard's bench trial and why the judge questioned Laura's credibilityThe Rabkin DNA test and how science unraveled the paternity claims The court's referral to prosecutors and the 14 felony counts now pending Why these specific criminal charges (fraudulent schemes, perjury, forgery, extortion) are rare and serious Access additional content and our Patreon here: https://zez.am/thebravodocket The Bravo Docket podcast, the statements we make whether in our own media or elsewhere, and any content we post are for entertainment purposes only and do not provide legal advice.

Retired DEA agent J. Todd Scott takes us inside his most intense assignment — serving as Assistant Special Agent in Charge in El Paso, Texas, during some of the bloodiest years of cartel violence in Juarez, Mexico. From 21st-century drug trafficking operations to old-school smuggling straight out of the Wild West, Todd saw it all unfold from the front lines of America's border crisis.Todd reveals what it's really like working drug enforcement in a border city where cartel wars are happening right across the bridge, how he transitioned from DEA headquarters in Washington D.C. to the chaos of the southwest border, and why his time leading complex operations in Phoenix became the career highlight of nearly 30 years in federal law enforcement.This is real border security — told by the man who lived it.
Today's Headlines: The State of the Union ran a record-breaking 1 hour and 47 minutes, topping Donald Trump's own mark from last year. He opened with the men's Olympic hockey team, then rolled through familiar theatrics. Trump announced Vice President James Donald Bowman will lead a new “war on fraud,” said he'll continue tariffs despite the Supreme Court's ruling against them, teased a tax cut plan designed to bypass Congress, and gave a noncommittal “we'll see” on war with Iran if nuclear talks fail. Dozens of Democrats skipped the address. Those who attended brought guests including Americans affected by ICE enforcement and survivors connected to Jeffrey Epstein, turning the gallery into its own counterprogramming. Speaking of Jeffrey Epstein, NPR reported the Justice Department appears to have withheld dozens of pages from its Epstein file release, including documents referencing past allegations involving Trump. The gaps were identified through FBI logs and serial numbers. In Norway, former Prime Minister Thorbjørn Jagland — an Epstein associate — was hospitalized after an apparent suicide attempt days after police opened a corruption probe into his ties to Epstein. In other news, U.S. Ambassador to France Charles Kushner was briefly sidelined diplomatically after failing to appear at the French Foreign Ministry over a U.S. statement criticizing political violence in Lyon. He later smoothed things over with a phone call. Marking four years since Russia's invasion of Ukraine, Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orbán pledged to block $105 billion in EU aid to Ukraine, while Secretary of State Marco Rubio suggested Hungary could receive relief from certain U.S. sanctions. The Wall Street Journal reports the administration is considering requiring banks to collect and verify customers' citizenship status — a shift from current anti–money laundering rules. As if it wasn't chaotic enough, we've been blessed by 2 whistleblowers. A former ICE instructor told Congress the agency has cut constitutional and firearms training, and separate reporting alleges FBI response delays to a December mass shooting were tied to Kash Patel's jet use. And in Texas, Rep. Tony Gonzales is facing calls to resign following reports of an alleged affair with a staffer who later died by suicide.

Today on Joe Oltmann Untamed, Patrick is taking the reins to lay out the hard truth: a Palestinian Islamic scholar in Chicago just spelled it out open borders and asylum programs have been weaponized, letting in millions not just to work, but to exploit the system, commit fraud, and spread ideologies that clash with American values. We're seeing the fallout right here: schools quietly setting up Muslim prayer rooms during Ramadan, Texas districts handing out Sharia pamphlets, hijabs, and Qurans for “World Hijab Day,” and kids chanting anti-American slogans while staff look the other way. Separation of church and state? Apparently it only applies when it's Christianity.The chaos isn't stopping at the borders. We've got students beaten for holding Trump flags during anti-ICE walkouts, trans activists openly calling for violence until they get their way, and schools losing thousands of kids because parents are pulling them from indoctrination camps. This isn't random; it's deliberate infiltration and cultural replacement, and too many leaders are either complicit or willfully blind.This episode is a wake-up call for every parent, taxpayer, and patriot who's had enough of the double standards and the slow erosion of our way of life. From Muslim prayer groups in public schools to violent attacks on conservative kids, we're connecting the dots on how open borders, radical ideologies, and institutional cowardice are reshaping America and what happens if we don't fight back. Tune in for the unfiltered truth and the hard questions no one else wants to ask.

What about that? (HOW TO FIGURE OUT WHO GETS THE REFUND) --- Estimate that $175B tariffs have been collected alreay - A group of 22 U.S. Senate Democrats on Monday introduced legislation that would require President Donald Trump's administration to fully refund within 180 days all of the revenue, with interest, collected from tariffs struck down by the U.S. Supreme Court. - The legislation would require the Customs and Border Protection agency, which collects tariffs at U.S. ports of entry, to prioritize small businesses. - The U.S. Customs and Border Protection agency said it will halt collections of tariffs imposed under the International Emergency Economic Powers Act at 12:01 a.m. EST (0501 GMT) on Tuesday Stop The Presses - After years of JCD's rants....... - Apple will soon introduce MacBooks with touch screens - Apple Inc.'s initial touch Macs will have the Dynamic Island at the center top of the display and OLED screen technology.

"A deal is a deal." - All active discussions are halted on any USA/Europe trade deal The Potential Winners - Brazil and China may be the winners here - Chinese President Xi Jinping has a boost in bargaining power after the US Supreme Court invalidated Donald Trump's broad emergency tariffs, a key point of leverage over China. - The removal of tariff threats will make it harder for Trump to press Xi for larger purchases of certain products and leaves him without a key weapon to strike back if Chinese negotiators make fresh demands. - Xi's team will likely push harder for access to advanced semiconductors, the removal of trade restrictions on Chinese companies, and reduced US support for self-ruled Taiwan, according to Wu Xinbo, director at Fudan University's Center for American Studies. NVDA Earnings - NVIDIA drops its fiscal Q4 2026 (ended Jan 2025) results tomorrow—another make-or-break moment for the AI trade. - The bar is sky-high after years of blowout beats, but whispers of "peak AI" and slowing growth momentum have investors on edge. --- Consensus Expectations : ----Revenue: ~$65.6–$66.1 billion (up ~67–68% YoY from last year's ~$39B; guided $65B ±2% in prior report) ------EPS (adjusted/non-GAAP): ~$1.50–$1.53 (up ~70–72% YoY from $0.89). --------Gross margins: Targeting ~75% non-GAAP (holding strong despite supply chain noise). -----------Key driver: Data Center segment expected to crush ~$58–$60B, fueled by Blackwell ramp and hyperscaler spend. Home Depot Earnings - The home-improvement retailer gained 2.7% after posting fourth-quarter adjusted earnings of $2.72 per share on revenues of $38.20 billion. - That exceeded the per-share earnings of $2.54 on revenues of $38.12 billion expected by analysts polled by LSEG. AMD News - The semiconductor maker rose about 11% after it inked a multiyear deal with Meta to lend up to 6 gigawatts of its graphics processing units to artificial intelligence data centers. - The cost of the deal is unclear, but the companies' agreement includes a a performance-based warrant that could amount to up to 160 million of AMD shares, according to a statement dated Tuesday. - Meta has committed to deploying up to 6 gigawatts (GW) of AMD's Instinct GPUs (high-end graphics processing units optimized for AI workloads) to power its massive AI data centers. - Analysts estimate the GPU portion alone could be worth $60–$100+ billion over 5+ years Mortgage Rates - The average rate on the popular 30-year fixed mortgage fell to 5.99% on Monday, according to Mortgage News Daily, matching its lowest levels since 2022. - Last year at this time the rate was 6.89%. - A buyer putting 20% down on the median priced home, about $400,000 according to the National Association of Realtors, would have a monthly payment of $1,916 for the principal and interest. One year ago, that payment would have been $2,105, a difference of $189. Life Insurance Record - Manulife Financial Corp. sold a $300 million life insurance policy in Singapore, topping what Guinness World Records certified as the most valuable policy ever issued. - The policy surpasses the previous record of $250 million, set by HSBC Life in Hong Kong in 2024. Manulife said in a statement Tuesday that the deal reflects growing demand from ultra-wealthy clients to preserve their assets. - In Singapore over the past 12 months, Manulife has issued 25 individual policies each worth more than $50 million. Bitcoin Rout - Gemini said it was axing as much as a quarter of its staff and exiting the UK, European Union and Australia entirely. - This week, it parted with its chief operating officer, chief financial officer and chief legal officer, all in a single day. - Its stock has fallen more than 80% from a post-listing high last year, collapsing its market value from a peak of almost $4 billion to under $700 million. Over the Greenland - USA sending a "hospital ship" over - Trump's post on the ship came hours after Denmark's Joint Arctic Command said it had evacuated a crew member who required urgent medical treatment from a U.S. submarine in Greenlandic waters, seven nautical miles outside of Greenland's capital, Nuuk. - Greenland said thanks but no thanks So Long! - U.S. investors are pulling money out of their own stock market at the fastest pace in at least 16 years as Big Tech returns fade and better-performing overseas markets look more attractive. - In the last six months, U.S.-domiciled investors have pulled some $75 billion from U.S. equity products, with $52 billion flowing out since the start of 2026 alone, the most in the first eight weeks of the year since at least 2010 AI Disruption - DOD (Disruption of Disrupters) - CrowdStrike -9.8% and other cybersecurity names under heavy pressure again as AI disruption fears build following Anthropic's Claude Code release - - Cybersecurity stocks are under broad pressure today, extending recent weakness following Friday's launch of Claude Code Security by Anthropic. Claude Code Security scans codebases for vulnerabilities and suggests software patches for human review, fueling a narrative that AI platforms may be moving more quickly into parts of the security workflow than investors had previously expected. For cybersecurity, that raises concern around the forward demand outlook and competitive positioning, particularly in areas tied to application security, cloud security, identity workflows, and security operations automation, where AI-native tools could start to narrow perceived differentiation. - The move suggests investors are still sorting through the implications for product overlap, pricing power, and competitive positioning as AI capabilities evolve quickly. - IBM shares dropping toward lows of the session; attributed to news that Claude can automate cobol modernization COBOL (Common Business-Oriented Language) is a high-level, English-like programming language created in 1959 for business, finance, and administrative data processing. It is renowned for its verbosity, readability, and reliability, processing massive amounts of transactions on mainframe systems,, notes NetCom Learning and IBM. Despite being decades old, it remains critical in banking, insurance, and government sectors. - It is estimated that 70-80% of the world's business transactions are processed by COBOL Grok's Prediction about Future of OpenAi/ChatGPT Scenario Likelihood (My Estimate) Key Factors Outcome for OpenAI/ChatGPT Thriving Leader Medium (40%) Sustained breakthroughs, partnerships (e.g., Microsoft), regulatory wins OpenAI as AI giant; ChatGPT as ecosystem hub for agents/robots Evolved Survivor High (50%) Adaptation to agents/hardware; mergers Exists but rebranded; ChatGPT integrated into daily life tools Decline/Acquisition Low (10%) Overcompetition, funding collapse Absorbed or legacy; ChatGPT commoditized or obsolete Quick check on Europe Shares - European company earnings growth is picking up this reporting season against a tentatively improving economic backdrop, but wary investors are demanding more than solid results to justify sky-high valuations. - Companies representing 57% of Europe's market capitalization have reported so far, achieving average earnings growth of 3.9% in the fourth quarter, ahead of estimates for a final result of a contraction of 1.1% --- That is a big differential.... +3.9 vs -1.1 Iran Talks - News over the weekend that Iran will look to discuss a variety of items and potentially get a deal.... energy, mining and aircraft - Best guess: Iran will string us along like Russia is doing and we will say we have some kind of bogus deal. --- There is some talk of US "going in" as we are building military presence. Supposedly there are some saying it could be a multi-week incursion. - What is the plan - Regime change? What is this? - A divided Supreme Court on Tuesday ruled that Americans can't sue the U.S. Postal Service, even when employees deliberately refuse to deliver mail. - By a 5-4 vote, the justices ruled against a Texas landlord, Lebene Konan, who alleges her mail was intentionally withheld for two years. Konan, who is Black, claims racial prejudice played a role in postal employees' actions. - Justice Clarence Thomas, writing for a majority of five conservative justices, said the federal law that generally shields the Postal Service from lawsuits over missing, lost and undelivered mail includes “the intentional nondelivery of mail.” - So can ballots just be thrown in garbage for mail-ins for one party that will throw out another party's?

Pastor Troy Brewer and Ben Brewer, from OpenDoor Church in Dallas, Texas, join Tony to pull back the curtain on a ministry that doesn't just preach freedom, it hunts it down. From funding and executing rescues to stepping into nations where trafficking networks operate in plain sight, they share stories of walking straight into danger to bring people out. Their travels abroad read like something out of a thriller, filled with sudden spiritual confrontations, close calls, and moments where survival hinged on obedience and prayer. Yet behind the intensity is a relentless conviction that Jesus still sets captives free in real time. This episode is a gripping look at faith in action, where the fight against human trafficking is personal, costly, and anything but theoretical.Please pray for Tony's wife, Lindsay, as she battles breast cancer.

Not that long ago many church-going Americans saw Russia as a godless place, an “evil empire” in the words of Ronald Reagan. But in President Trump's second term, US-Russia relations have been turned on their head. Last year, the White House sided with the Kremlin at the United Nations, voting against a resolution to condemn Russia's invasion of Ukraine.This seismic shift is also being felt in parishes across America. Increasing numbers of US Catholics and Protestants are embracing Eastern Orthodoxy. Many converts disillusioned by the showbiz elements in many megachurches, say they are drawn to a faith with enduring traditions. Some, uneasy with social and demographic change, believe the churches they were raised in have lost their authority by going “woke” – shorthand for supporting equal marriage, female clergy, pro-choice, Black Lives Matter and other liberal issues.Some converts have hundreds of thousands of followers online, and push Kremlin narratives that Russia is the world's last bastion of true Christianity - a few of the most radical have even emigrated there. Last year, Lucy Ash went to Texas – one of the most religious states in the US – to meet some new converts.This episode of The Documentary comes to you from Assignment, investigations and journeys into the heart of global events.

Most advisory marketing doesn't fail because advisors aren't trying—it fails because the funnel breaks in predictable places, leaving great content and good intentions without a clear path to consistent leads. This episode explores the most common "break points" in advisor marketing funnels, as well as what it takes to build a strategy that attracts the right prospects, communicates value quickly, and makes it easy for prospects to take the next step towards becoming a client. Kendra Wright is the owner of Rebel Media Agency, a marketing firm based in Austin, Texas, that helps RIAs establish and execute clear marketing strategies. She joins us today to share the four ways she most often sees advisor marketing funnels break and how advisors can get what she calls "ideal client clarity" without necessarily forcing themselves into a single ultra-narrow niche. We also discuss how firms can choose a marketing channel that fits their client profile, why it's important for advisor content to be "targeted" in order to stand out, and how advisors can better move prospects from content to client.

In this episode, I sit down with Texas State Trooper and one of the most consistent bowhunters I've ever talked to — Tarif Alkhatib. A few years back Tarif punched the Texas State Record buck, but what impressed me most isn't just one giant… it's the repeatability. Year after year he's targeting and killing truly mature, free-range whitetails — many of them 6, 7, even 8+ years old and pushing well into the 150–160” class. We dive deep into Tarif's system for hunting bow-only counties in Texas, how he uses the Red Moon to time his hunts, and the mindset that keeps him consistently around the oldest deer in the county. If your goal is to stop chasing young bucks and start hunting true mature whitetails, this episode is loaded with real, field-proven insight. In this episode we cover: Tarif's Texas State Record buck story Hunting bow-only counties in Texas The Red Moon theory and how he applies it Finding and targeting 6–8 year old deer Why consistency matters more than luck Mistakes bowhunters make chasing mature bucks . . .

We are back for Part 2 of our Carson Kressley takeover! This week, Carson invites his "partners in crime," Amie and Jolie Sikes—better known as the Junk Gypsies—to the podcast. Broadcasting (virtually) from Round Top, Texas, the sisters share the story of how they turned a love for "junking" into a global lifestyle brand. Carson and the Gypsies discuss the magic of the Round Top Antiques Fair (the "Super Bowl of Junk"), why you should mix velvet with raw wood, and how to decorate with "glitter and dirt." Quick Decorating Takeaways: Mix "Glitter and Dirt": The Junk Gypsy aesthetic is all about contrast. Don't be afraid to pair a crystal chandelier with chipping paint, or velvet upholstery with rustic wood. The friction between fancy and rough is what makes a room interesting. Buy What You Love (It Will Fit): When shopping at flea markets or antique shows, ignore the "where will I put this?" doubt. Amie and Jolie believe that if you truly love a piece, you will find a place for it—even if it ends up in the bathroom holding towels. Souvenirs > Trends: Your home should be a scrapbook of your life. Carson and the girls discuss why buying weird, unique items from your travels (like a giant roadside sign or a beat-up guitar) beats buying a generic trend from a big-box store every time.

The investigation into the death of Celeste Rivas Hernandez took a significant legal turn this week when a Texas appeals court denied habeas corpus petitions filed by D4VD's parents and brother, ordering them to comply with California grand jury subpoenas. Dawud, Colleen, and Caleb Burke had argued that redacted affidavits prevented them from understanding why they were deemed material witnesses. The court disagreed, though a February 24 rehearing keeps the door open.The Burke family ruling is the latest escalation in what has become a defining feature of this case: widespread noncooperation from D4VD's inner circle. Neo Langston, a close friend and streamer, was arrested in Montana after failing to appear and testified for roughly 40 minutes — a duration retired FBI Special Agent Jennifer Coffindaffer believes signals repeated Fifth Amendment invocations. An unidentified female witness failed to appear, prompting prosecutors to seek a body attachment. Manager Robert Morgenroth testified for three days but was reportedly overheard discussing prosecutorial pressure over his failure to contact police.A footnote in the Texas ruling references "The People of the State of California v. David Burke," which analysts say strongly suggests sealed criminal proceedings are already underway. D4VD has not been charged. Sources say he is no longer cooperating with investigators.This episode covers the Texas ruling, the full pattern of witness resistance, and what February 24 could mean for the trajectory of this case.

When Donald Trump returned to office, he pledged the largest immigration crackdown in U.S. history. While public debate centered on mass deportations, a quieter — and potentially more consequential — transformation has taken shape: the rapid expansion of immigrant detention capacity inside the United States. New 2025 data shows that 77% of people newly placed into deportation proceedings had no criminal conviction. At the same time, ICE is consolidating more than 200 detention sites into 34 massive facilities — including proposed “mega-centers” capable of holding up to 10,000 people each. Planned sites span Georgia, Maryland, Texas, and Arizona, with total capacity projected to approach 100,000 beds. A controversial Department of Homeland Security memo now directs mandatory “re-vetting” of refugees at the one-year mark, allowing detention during inspection with no defined time limit. Critics argue this creates the risk of prolonged — even indefinite — confinement for people lawfully admitted to the United States. Federal judges have rebuked elements of the policy, citing constitutional concerns and unlawful detention practices. Meanwhile, fatal encounters involving federal immigration officers and a wave of collapsed federal prosecutions have intensified scrutiny. Supporters call the overhaul modernization and a restoration of order. Opponents see the construction of a permanent detention infrastructure that could outlast any single administration. Independent media has never been more important.

In 1988, I was one of only two white elected Democratic officials in all of America to endorse Jesse Jackson to be our party's nominee for President. (The other was Bernie Sanders, then the mayor of Burlington Vermont).As a Texas politico, my endorsement of the fiery Black leader was both derided as political suicide and hailed as gutsy. But it was neither – it was just the right thing to do. As I had learned from an old-time Texas Democrat, “Every now and then, a politician ought to do something just because it's right.”In the 1970s and 80s, I had gotten to know and work with Jackson. A renown orator, he was an even more effective thinker and uniter. For example, he was able to link white, conservative dirt farmers in common cause with impoverished farmworkers and inner-city families battling chain-store profiteers.So, when he ran for president, I had to ask myself: If this guy (1) is standing for the progressive populist values I believe in, (2) is standing with the grassroots families I'm fighting for, and (3) has the populist grit to stand up to the moneyed elites – why am I not standing with him?Millions of us responded to his deliberate campaign trying to forge a multi-racial populist movement, and it's up to us to carry that historic mission forward. But Jackson's “Rainbow” vision was not one of fluffy hope however, but one of profound “intentionality.” That means doing the grunt-level political work of strategizing, organizing, and mobilizing to make good things happen. Especially in these dark Trumpian times, emphasizing Jesse's deliberate determination is the best way to honor this true champion of democracy.Jim Hightower's Lowdown is a reader-supported publication.
