Rage on Moorea and Farewell to Mai. Guest Author: Hampton Sides. Tensions escalated on the island of Mooreaduring the "Goat Incident," where the theft of a pregnant nanny goat triggered a "scorched earth" campaign from Cook. He destroyed huts and canoes in a disproportionate rage that shocked his officers. Sides suggests this was a desperate attempt to protect Mai's future property by making an example of theft. After dropping Mai off at Huahine in a bittersweet farewell, the ships turned toward Alaska. Mai eventually died of disease a few years later, failing to reclaim his ancestral lands despite his English weapons. Cook, meanwhile, was increasingly seen by his men as a "darker" version of his former self as he pushed north. 51899 FIJI
In the summer of 1907, the Irish Crown Jewels were stolen from the heart of British power in Ireland, under the noses of the police, the military and the political establishment. Worth £50,000 at the time, their disappearance made headlines around the world. It was also deeply humiliating for the British authorities, coming just days before King Edward VII was due to visit Dublin.On the surface, it seemed like the perfect crime. The jewels were never recovered, and more than a century later, it remains unclear exactly when the theft even took place.But behind the mystery lay something even more explosive. Within days, detectives uncovered a scandal the British government could not afford to make public. This would lead to a major cover-up.In this episode, I take you back to Edwardian Dublin to explore Ireland's most infamous unsolved crime: a story of privilege, scandal and secrecy at the heart of British rule in Ireland.Sound by Kate DunleaSupport the podcast: patreon.com/Irishpodcast.Sources:Myles Dungan, The stealing of the Irish Crown Jewels: an unsolved crime https://www.amazon.com/stealing-Irish-Crown-Jewels-unsolved-ebook/dp/B00C80K09G/ref=sr_1_1?dib=eyJ2IjoiMSJ9.bOREnIOZl9l8Nl9OFsawFw.NpvKSTSvbFr7u5uAzCkP6Ex_SzFeGsfO5PF1fPu5Bsg&dib_tag=se&keywords=9781860591822&linkCode=qs&qid=1781869038&s=books&sr=1-1F.

Introduction: The Line Between Learning and Stealing Well, hey there. Welcome back. And I really mean that. I’m really glad you’re here. I’m really glad that you enjoy my vast library of information. In fact, I want you to do whatever you want with it. If you can accomplish something or understand something, in fact, there’s really no limit to what I would like you to do with the information. Except for one thing. And that one thing is steal it. What Actually Constitutes Stealing in the Age of AI? And you might say, well, Mark, it’s free. You’re already giving it away for a steal. Oh, I gotcha there. That was clever. Here’s the thing. If you use the information for yourself, that’s not stealing. If you use the information to improve something or to learn, or if it acts as a springboard in which you can say, hey, Mark mentioned that thing, I’m going to go look it up further and go do a, you know, go dive right into that, that’s not stealing. However, if you essentially cut and paste my information into AI and then post the result as your own, that’s stealing. The Unique Stamp of a Creator: Why Authenticity Matters Now you could say, well, look, lots of people come up with information relatively at the same time, right? So someone could come up with something around the same time someone else does, or there might be 20 people posting about the same time. Well, that’s fine, of course. If all 20 people did their research and due diligence, you’re going to see the flavor of that person on each post. I would like to think that each and every post that I make, each and every podcast episode, every book that I write has my stamp on it. It has my signature. You know that Mark Bradford wrote that. And for it to have that signature, there’s going to be good and bad, right? You may find that these episodes are rather dense and you would like someone to talk a little slower. You might also enjoy the fact that I have a format of sort of discover, raise awareness, and then kind of give you a tangible thing to take away. AI Generation vs. Iterative Creation: Putting Heart into the Work But it’s me. And I do this stuff from scratch. I mean, let’s talk about AI a little bit. Even when I generate some images, I spend way too much time on what is basically an image that people on Spotify and YouTube and iTunes probably aren’t going to see. And yet I still spend all of that time. And when I generate an image, I don’t just say, hey, give me an image of somebody doing this. No, I spend way too much time adjusting and iterating and iterating and iterating. And I did a podcast episode called Live Life Iteratively, and we talk about that there. The truth is I put my heart and soul into these things. Ultimately, I want you to benefit from it. I want you to be wiser and smarter. I want you to have a spark because of something I said. But when someone takes that, they take what you have written and they obviously put it through an AI slop machine only to repost it, that’s stealing. It’s a bunch of other things too. But it’s stealing. The Impact of AI on Non-Creative Professions If you’re not in the creative space, you may either doubt what I’m saying, or you might think, well, I can’t really relate to that. But you can. Even if you’re not in the creative space, and I typically argue that everyone’s in that space, there are still things that are uniquely you. And those aren’t things that only you find at home. Those are things that manifest themselves in your job. And if you’re successful at what you do, part of that success is probably because you do it your way. All of the fungible pursuits are still affected by this. Even if you’re in banking, or real estate, or dentistry, or sales, you’re still going to bring what is uniquely you to the table. It’s going to give you an advantage over other people, and it’s going to be something that people recognize you by. Experience Equals Wisdom: The True Cost of Duplication You may sell something that is in no way remotely interesting to people, but you make a good living at it. And you’ve figured out a way to sell that. You’ve figured out a way to connect to other people, to potential clients, in a way that gives you a lot of success. And it was probably done with blood, sweat, and tears. You probably had to figure this out after a while. And as I say, pain equals experience, and experience equals wisdom. So you have this wisdom that you painfully acquired. If someone comes by and copies that, you may say, well, it was eventually going to get out. But if somebody copies that and says, hey, I’m unique in this way because I do this thing… You would then say, well, no, you’re not unique. Now you’re a duplicate because you just stole the thing that I do. The Dirty Secret of AI Training Models and Piracy I’m not even talking about patents, trademarks, and copyrights. I’m talking about systems and things and ways of communicating, and ideas that people can come up with independently. The age of AI brings with it a lot of ups and downs. In my opinion, a lot more downs than ups. And when people adopt technology, technology tends to just magnify something that they’re already experiencing. How AI Amplifies Our Basic Instincts and Desires If someone’s a thrill seeker and they have a car, but they get a fast car, well, that’s going to amplify their seeking of that thrill in a way that’s pretty obvious. If someone’s desperately seeking status and attention, and AI comes along, well, it’s going to basically enable that. Like a drug dealer saying, hey, the drugs are now free, just click this button. You’ve seen it before. You’ve seen the memes about the flyers. How every flyer looks the same. And they call them the “boomer AI flyers” because they are. Typically older people who have adopted AI and just marvel and are thrilled at the fact that they can type a few things into it and get a flyer. But the flyers all look the same. The creative space has always been a difficult place to enforce ownership and rights. In fact, even when AI came along and was trained on books, do you think those books were paid for? A lot of them weren’t. The dirty secret of AI is that a lot of the books that main AIs were trained on were pirated. Generating Art vs. Imitating Artists: An Ethical Distinction Let me be introspective and objective. Now, as I’ve said, I use typically Midjourney and spend many hours, probably too many hours, generating and regenerating and adjusting images over and over and over again just so that I can get the proper image to invoke the proper emotion, at which time I then overlay all of my text and spend way too much time deciding on a stupid font, etc., etc. So I spend way too much work on that. But I’ve generated an image. And those images are drawn from the works of artists. I could say, show me an image of two people shaking hands as if Van Gogh painted it. And it would do it. It would do it in such a way that would be fairly believable. Now, Van Gogh would never paint that, but now you’ve created an image as if you’re that person. I don’t sell that image though. I don’t sell that image as if I created it. I generated it, but I didn’t create it. There’s a vast difference between using that as a background, as an icon for one of my podcast episodes, and finding someone online, perhaps someone I know, and taking a picture of their painting, feeding it through Midjourney, and saying, make a painting just like this one. And then me posting it as if I did that. Do you see the difference? Actionable Advice: How to Avoid Becoming “AI Slop” And again, I can feel in a lot of your brains that you’re going, well, look, this just doesn’t affect me. I don’t care. But it does affect you. And again, if you’re not in what you think is a creative space, there are still aspects of what you do, your productivity and your output, that are going to be affected by AI. And if someone then uses that as a proxy, you’re going to be in trouble. You’re going to be without a job, and you’re going to fight tooth and nail to hang on to what makes you you. I’m telling you, it doesn’t feel good when that happens. So this is the part in the episode where I tell you what to do, or I say what can we do, right? So what can you do? Well, we raised awareness of it, so be mindful of this. And if you’re mindful in a way that you weren’t before, you’re going to see in areas where people after a certain age post a lot of this, you’re going to see it. It’s all you’re going to see. All you’re going to see is this, as referred to as AI slop, over and over and over again. Personally, you should avoid anything that decides it wants to take the place of your frontal lobe. And I did a podcast episode on that, and there’s an MIT study in which people don’t think for themselves. They just went, oh, okay, I’ll just ask the AI for that. Give me a bullet list of five reasons why blah, blah, blah. And now I’ll post that and shove that in people’s faces. And if someone asks that person the next day, what was your post about? They’d have no idea. That’s not information. That’s not helping people. That’s static. That’s noise, and that’s garbage. And it’s not good for you. Protecting Your Work: Takedown Notices and Platform Stringency YouTube is very stringent about takedown notices. People can post a notice and say, hey, this is my stuff. And then YouTube will come to that person who is the creator and say, okay, we’ve taken this down or we’ve demonetized it. And in some cases, when people are accused of this, it’s frustrating because they’ll be getting tens of thousands of views and the money that should be going to them goes to somewhere else. But they take that stuff seriously. I have been tagged in both Spotify and YouTube about Alchemy. And it wasn’t hard to prove that I was here first and I and my specific kind of alchemy is different than what they were saying. They even have AI, here we go, they even have AI that randomly will spot stuff and say, hey, you’re infringing. So you also risk that. Conclusion: Focus on Your Unique Gift I know it makes your head spin when you just want to eat your pancakes and you just want to go do your job. But I’m warning you that if you are someone who creates or someone who has a special way of doing something, and that’s everyone, you can be in danger of this happening to you. If you’re someone who does this sort of thing, know that there are consequences for doing it. In a perfect world, I think each and every one of us has a gift. We have a gift and can bring something to other people, to groups, to civilization as a whole. We all have a gift. And focusing on that gift is what makes us happy and productive and who we are. Focusing on copying someone else’s gifts is just not a good idea. Thank you as always. I appreciate you, and I appreciate you listening. And take care.
Welcome to The Daily, where we study the Bible verse by verse, chapter by chapter, every day. Grab your Hosea Scripture Journal right now. Have you become calloused to sin? Our text today is Hosea 7:1-3: when I would heal Israel, the iniquity of Ephraim is revealed, and the evil deeds of Samaria, for they deal falsely; the thief breaks in, and the bandits raid outside. But they do not consider that I remember all their evil. Now their deeds surround them; they are before my face. By their evil they make the king glad, and the princes by their treachery. — Hosea 7:1-3 God begins with hope. "When I would heal Israel…" God's desire was not first to destroy, but to restore. He was ready to heal, ready to renew, ready to bring his people back. But every time healing approached, more sin surfaced. "The iniquity of Ephraim is revealed, and the evil deeds of Samaria…" This is what sin does when it is left unchecked. It does not stay hidden. It rises. It spreads. It multiplies. What was once private becomes public. What was once occasional becomes habitual. What was once shameful becomes acceptable. This is what happens when sin becomes normal. Hosea describes a culture built on deception. They deal falsely. Theft happens indoors. Violence happens outdoors. Corruption reaches the palace itself. Even worse, leaders were not restraining evil—they were rewarding it. And that is always the mark of deep decline. When evil is celebrated, when truth is mocked, when leaders profit from corruption, and when people stop blushing at sin, a society is in trouble. Israel was in trouble. And if we are honest, our nation is in trouble, too. But this is not only about nations. It is about you. The drift begins in the human heart, then rises, spreads, and multiplies. A compromise you once resisted becomes something you manage. A habit you once confessed becomes something you excuse. A conviction you once felt strongly becomes strangely quiet. That is how a heart hardens. Then God drops a dose of reality into their culture of sin: "They do not consider that I remember all their evil." God has a long memory. He sees what we normalize. He remembers what we rename. Yet even here, there is mercy for Israel and for us. The God who exposes sin is still the God who says, "When I would heal…" He reveals in order to restore. Do not wait until sin becomes your new normal. Do not keep living in sin while trying to hide it from God. When sin becomes normal, healing feels unnecessary. Let truth break in today. Let God expose you. Call it what it is—sin. Confess it quickly and specifically. Turn from it fully. Because what you normalize today will rule you tomorrow. Don't be ruled by sin. Be ruled by God. DO THIS: Identify one sin, compromise, or habit you have started excusing. Name it honestly before God and take one step to remove it today. ASK THIS: What sin has become too normal in my life? Where has my conviction grown quiet? Am I resisting the healing God is trying to bring? PRAY THIS: God, keep my heart sensitive to what offends you. Expose what I have normalized, and heal what I am willing to surrender. Amen. PLAY THIS: "Lord, Have Mercy"
The practice of people self-identifying as Indigenous has come into sharp focus after a number of high-profile cases of “pretendians” claiming to be Indigenous without evidence. However, far less attention has been given to Indigenous people being wrongly labelled as pretendians. In a recent article for Policy Options, Debbie Martin argues that the rush for Indigenous identity policies at universities has led to people with legitimate claims to Indigeneity being swept up in policies that will cause lasting harm. Debbie Martin is Inuk and a member of Nunatukavut. She is a professor in the school of health and human performance at Dalhousie University and the Canada Research Chair in Indigenous Peoples' health and well-being. We spoke in November.

In today's edition of Hollywood's Headlines, the guys react to the wild scenes in New York City following the Knicks' championship win, where celebrations quickly turned chaotic with multiple school buses and police cars set on fire, dozens of arrests, and several violent incidents reported. The conversation then shifts to the French Open, which reportedly hit a 20-year low in viewership after early exits from several top stars led to a drop in interest throughout the tournament. With World Cup excitement building, the discussion turns to a troubling trend of merchandise theft, including comparisons to infamous sports memorabilia crimes from the past such as Tom Brady's Super Bowl jersey being stolen and previous incidents involving stolen Miami Heat gear.
Today, let's talk about how to counter the rapidly evolving cyber threats facing the transportation industry in this episode with Jaime Lightfoot of Lightfoot Labs and Joe Ohr of the NMFTA! They share the new realities of logistical vulnerabilities, moving beyond abstract ransomware fears to reveal how everyday tools like legacy maintenance software and Electronic Logging Devices (ELDs) are being weaponized as backdoors into critical transport infrastructure. They also breaks down why fleets cannot afford to play catch-up with sophisticated, state-sponsored cybercriminals who exploit software white-labeling and GPS spoofing to manipulate logbooks or orchestrate strategic cargo theft. From simple wired connections during routine garage service to complex wireless interventions while trucks are actively moving on the highway, this conversation serves as a wakeup call emphasizing that asset protection requires continuous, proactive defensive remediation and a rigorous evaluation of every digital touchpoint in your supply chain! About Jamie Lightfoot Jaime Lightfoot is an independent security researcher, electrical engineer, and full-stack developer with over 12 years of industry experience. She specializes in embedded systems security within heavy trucking, automotive, and other critical infrastructure, helping companies assess vulnerabilities and working with their engineers to fix the gaps. About Joe Ohr Joe Ohr has more than two decades of experience in technical operations, customer success management, customer support, and product support. Currently serving as the Chief Operating Officer for the National Motor Freight Traffic Association, Inc. (NMFTA)™, he plays a pivotal role in helping to advance the industry through digitization, classification, and cybersecurity. Prior to Ohr's role at NMFTA, he served as in numerous engineering and operations positions at Qualcomm and Eaton, and most recently held the position of Senior Vice President of Operations/Customer Experience at Omnitracs. Throughout his career, Ohr has provided strategic guidance, vision, and a roadmap for addressing long-term customer challenges. He has played a key role in accelerating revenue growth and has collaborated closely with IT, product, and engineering teams to foster stronger partnerships with strategic customers and peers. Additionally, Ohr has overseen post sales customer support and service teams, as well as operations, managing a workforce of over 400 individuals. He holds multiple certifications such as CCNA from Cisco and MCSE from Microsoft and earned his Bachelor of Science in Education from the Ohio State University. Due to his contributions to the industry, he earned a spot in the Inner Circle in 2015 and 2018 from Qualcomm and Omnitracs.
Mitchell Jacobs has worked cargo theft at Walmart, security at Halliburton and United Airlines, and now runs safety and security for Lennox. He sat down with TalkLPnews Editor-in-Chief, Amber Bradley, to talk about the thing that actually keeps him up at night: a whole trailer can vanish off your dock and you won't know for hours. His fix starts with something most leaders skip, which is standing still on the floor long enough to watch two associates try to check in 30 trucks an hour while you ask them to be perfect. He also has a warning. Criminals are already using AI to mine broker boards and build fake bills of lading, and LP is too slow to catch up. Plus the leadership lesson he got from a YMCA boardroom in the 1980s, and why a closed case stopped feeling like a win.

3:00 -Retail's Shared Challenges: Trade, Theft, Cyber & Supply Chain 11:38 -Resilience vs. Efficiency in the New Normal 17:14 -AI in Retail: Practical Tools, Not Magic Solutions 20:43 -Halftime 23:30 -Supply Chain Myths, Tariff Policy & Organized Retail Crime In this special interview edition of Global Trade This Week, Doug Draper is joined by Jonathan Gold, Vice President of Supply Chain and Customs Policy at the National Retail Federation. Gold represents the retail industry on supply chain, international trade, product safety, customs, and transportation policy issues, and has been a leading voice on the value of trade and global supply chains to the U.S. economy. The conversation begins with a look at the scope of the NRF, the world's largest retail trade association, and the wide range of businesses it supports, from small independent stores to major national retailers, restaurants, digital brands, and more. Gold explains how NRF helps retailers navigate shared challenges including tariffs, cyber risk, labor, asset protection, cargo theft, and retail crime. A major theme throughout the interview is the reality that disruption has become part of the operating environment. Gold notes that retailers are no longer planning around a return to “normal” as it existed before 2019. Instead, they are building supply chains for a world defined by uncertainty, shifting tariff policy, changing consumer behavior, earlier peak seasons, and the need to stay prepared for whatever comes next. Doug and Jonathan also discuss the growing role of artificial intelligence in retail operations. Rather than treating AI as a universal solution, Gold emphasizes a more practical approach: identify the problem first, then determine where AI can help. From supply chain auditing to loss prevention and workforce productivity, retailers are looking for targeted ways to use technology while still keeping human judgment in the loop. The episode also explores organized retail crime, cargo theft, and the importance of collaboration between retailers, law enforcement, solution providers, and policymakers. Gold highlights the Combating Organized Retail Crime Act as one of the key policy efforts currently moving through Washington, with the potential to strengthen coordination across federal agencies and support state and local enforcement efforts. Finally, Gold offers a clear reminder about one of the biggest myths in supply chain: products do not simply appear on shelves. Retail supply chains are complex, global, and often planned six to nine months in advance. Policy changes, sourcing shifts, logistics capacity, port infrastructure, compliance requirements, and consumer demand all play a role in what ultimately reaches the customer. Watch the full interview for a thoughtful look at the intersection of retail, trade policy, supply chain resilience, and the decisions shaping the future of global commerce. www.capwwide.com/international-insights/6/15/26/gttw-podcast-episode-247

This was a fun discussion about the serious issue of gasoline, diesel, and fertilizer price increases for farmers, ranchers, and consumers in California. Make no mistake, the actions taken by the Newsom administration have driven consumer prices to some of the highest in the United States. Gavin has taken California from almost energy independent to total dependence on imports.We have Mike Ariza, a downstream expert, who has been on the podcast several times. A great resource for boots-on-the-ground information on the California downstream market. Connect with Mike on his X account. @MikeAriza4531Also, we had Joseph Huitt, who is with the Bordin-Huitt California Almond Ranch. Check out their family products for honey and specialty almonds at https://bhalmondranch.com/1. California's Energy Crisis & Fuel DependencyMike Ariza, an energy expert, explains that California has become dangerously dependent on fuel imports (40% dependent). Two major refineries were converted to renewable diesel in 2023, taking 350,000 barrels of crude oil processing offline. This resulted in no gasoline or jet fuel production from those facilities. The Iranian conflict further disrupted supply chains, cutting off jet fuel, diesel, and gasoline shipments from Asian refineries. President Trump's waiver of the Jones Act allowed fuel from Gulf Coast refineries to reach California, preventing potential $10+ gasoline prices and shortages.2. Agricultural Challenges & Rising CostsJoseph from Borden Hewitt Ranch discusses the severe economic pressures on family farms:Red Diesel prices skyrocketed from $3.17/gallon in February to $4.79-$6.60/gallon by MarchFertilizer costs doubled from $300-$500/acre to $400-$700/acre due to Strait of Hormones closureAlmond prices have remained below the $2/pound break-even point for five yearsPayment delays: Farmers receive paychecks every 3-4 months, not weekly, creating cash flow challenges3. Water Rights & Agricultural RestrictionsJoseph describes severe water restrictions in California's San Joaquin Valley, where farmers are prohibited from irrigating during peak heat seasons (June-July) despite canals being full. Banks only finance half the land value due to water limitations, effectively halving farm viability.4. Regulatory Overreach & Equipment RestrictionsEPA regulations prevent farmers from repairing their own equipment without manufacturer accessA diesel mechanic was jailed for helping farmers and truckers repair enginesSoftware restrictions: Farmers can't access tractor software updates, limiting their ability to fix equipment independentlyTuning restrictions: Rice farmers need extra horsepower to navigate clay fields but face penalties if caught modifying engines5. GMO Seeds & Agricultural ContractsDiscussion about restrictive seed contracts where farmers must purchase new seeds annually and cannot replant saved seeds from previous years, creating ongoing dependency on seed companies.6. State Taxes & Economic BurdenMultiple taxes burden California farmers:Cap and Invest (called "Theft and Invest")Road taxes37 cents for bullet train funding80 cents for other state initiatives These taxes are passed directly to consumers through higher food prices.7. Food Supply Chain VulnerabilityIf California loses refinery capacity, diesel shortages would collapse logistics, resulting in:Only 3-5 days of food supply in metropolitan areasPort of Los Angeles unable to operateFood distribution across the entire country disrupted (LA is the largest food importer during winter)8. Family Farm Viability & Future GenerationsJoseph, at 25 years old, represents the challenge facing young farmers. While passionate about farming, he's pursuing a master's degree in biological science (studying avian influenza) because farming alone cannot support a family. His mother advised all children to pursue other careers while farming as a side activity—a common reality for modern family farms.Overall Theme: The podcast highlights how interconnected energy, agriculture, and regulatory policy are in California, and how state policies are making it increasingly impossible for family farms to survive while threatening regional and national food security.Hat tip to the Great John Rich for being named the Special Envoy to Farmers for the USDA.

The host drops absolute truth bombs regarding the political left's massive double standards. They call out Maine Democrats for propelling self-described communist Grand Platner to a 73% primary victory despite national confirmation of his SS Totenkopf tattoo. The discussion shifts to election integrity, exposing the mail-in ballot schemes used to flip a critical California race. The host emphasizes that passing the SAVE Act is the ultimate weapon to stop these voting tactics from spreading to red states like South Carolina. Finally, the segment ends on a high note with massive economic victories: under President Trump, manufacturing is ticking up, and real median household incomes have surged by over $6,000!
Kinsella on Liberty Podcast: Episode 491. https://youtu.be/lfjpoKCWBDA I've known Paul Cwik, Professor of Economics and Finance at the University of Mount Olive and fellow of the Mises Institute since I started attending the Austrian Scholars Conference in 1995. He is an Austrian and libertarian of sorts but had some qualms with my anti-IP writing so presented a paper "Is There Room for Intellectual Property Rights in Austrian Economics?" at the Austrian Scholars Conference in 2008, which I attended and commented on. After 18 years we finally decided to get around to talking about this. I had planned on an hour but we ended up talking for 3. It turns out we were old friends but not that close; we didn't know much about each other. So the first 30-50 minutes or so is more preliminary discussion. To his credit, he read a good deal of the huge deluge of material I sent to read up on and asked many very good questions. He did not engage in intentional equivocation that is characteristic of many on the pro-IP side, and he was reasonable in conceding many of my points and was willing to ponder my push back. I was hoping to get him to see the light, since I have in person seen many people change their minds on IP after a long discussion but have never had it happen while recording. We did not resolve the issue, partly because we just didn't have enough time to keep going, but I think we made some progress. Maybe we will have a Part 2 later. Who knows. For now, some relevant links pertaining to some of the topics discussed. I will organize this better later. (Not to be confused with Bryan Cwik, who also has opinions on IP: “Good Ideas is Pretty Scarce”; Bryan Cwik, "Property Rights in Non‐rival Goods" (2, 3, 4); "Labor as the Basis for Intellectual Property Rights" (2; 3); Gamrot, Labor as the Basis for Intellectual Property Rights: Against Cwik.)

Locke correctly argued that the first person to “mix his labor with” an unowned resource owns it, since he thereby establishes an objective link to the resource which gives him a better claim to it than latecomers.[55] However, Locke based his argument on the confused and unnecessary idea that a person “owns” his labor and “therefore” owns resources that he mixes it with. But labor is not owned—it is an action, something a person performs with his body, which he does own—and this assumption is not needed for the Lockean labor-mixture argument to work.[56] This mistaken notion leads some people to favor IP because they figure that if you own a scarce resource because you mix your labor with it, you also own useful ideas that are produced with your labor. The related Smith-Ricardo-Marx labor theory of value, which underlies Marxism and socialism, is also sometimes used to support IP, as when people argue that if you work or labor, you “deserve” some kind of reward or profit. All this focus on labor must be rejected as overly metaphorical and confused, and, frankly, Marxian.[57]" On Libertarian Legal Theory, Self-Ownership and Drug Laws: p. 632 Libertarianism After Fifty Years: What Have We Learned?, p. 687 Creationism: Libertarian and Lockean Creationism: Creation As a Source of Wealth, not Property Right Libertarian Creationism KOL012 | “The Intellectual Property Quagmire, or, The Perils of Libertarian Creationism,” Austrian Scholars Conference 2008 KOL037 | Locke's Big Mistake: How the Labor Theory of Property Ruined Political Theory Part III.C.2 C.

Mentor Sessions Ep. 075: The Brutal Truth About Bitcoin in the NEW Dollar System, The Death of the Uniparty, and How Trump Is Rewiring Global Trade | Tom Luongo & Nolan BauerleBitcoin will be a collateral asset in the new dollar system — not the immediate replacement for it. Tom Luongo and Nolan Bauerle map out exactly why that order of operations matters, who is fighting it, and what the Iran conflict, Fannie/Freddie, and the Alaska-Russia trade corridor all have to do with Bitcoin's ultimate role.In this conversation you'll learn why Tom Luongo argues Wall Street already has the Bitcoin bug and the energy industry is next — and why that sequence, not retail adoption, is what actually shifts monetary reality. You'll see how Nolan Bauerle connects Bitcoin's "don't trust, verify" ethos directly to election integrity and why Bitcoiners broke so decisively for Trump in 2026. You'll understand the bimetallic framework Tom has been building for two years: America, Russia, China (ARC) as the geostrategic reality, with Bitcoin and gold as the collateral layer underneath a redesigned dollar system. And you'll hear both guests explain why the City of London's 40-year control of the eurodollar market — and its grip on Fannie, Freddie, and long-end yield curves — is the hidden architecture of the war being fought right now.⏱️ Timestamps:0:00 - Intro1:32 - Tom's 30,000 Foot View on Iran3:34 - Rewiring Trade Away from Choke Points5:20 - Iran's Collapse and IRGC Private Equity7:15 - Trump Wins Civil War Inside GOP9:31 - MAGA Civil War Narrative is Fake10:29 - Bitcoin Inside Dollar Framework12:07 - Dollar Dominance with Bitcoin Collateral19:03 - Bimetallism Stablecoins and Sound Money22:12 - Wall Street Bitcoin and Energy Next30:52 - Dollar Liquidity Crisis and SOFR44:22 - Why Bitcoiners Voted for Trump47:15 - Election Integrity and Prediction Markets53:12 - Privacy Property Rights vs CBDC59:49 - Government Audits and Transparency Shift1:05:29 - Fannie Freddie 2008 Theft and London1:13:48 - Summer Dollar Crisis and Trump Moves1:18:20 - Alaska Russia Bridge and ARC Trade1:21:49 - Why Satoshi Used Japanese Pseudonym

In this episode, we kick things off on the rails, where a powerful House committee is backing strict scrutiny for the proposed Union Pacific-Southern Pacific merger. The bipartisan House Appropriations Committee added language to the fiscal 2027 Transportation, Housing and Urban Development Appropriations bill during markup on June 2nd, urging the Surface Transportation Board to conduct a rigorous review of the $72 billion deal that would create the first all-freight transcontinental railroad. The committee specifically endorsed the STB's revised 2001 merger rules, which require applicants to not only preserve rail-to-rail competition but offer enhanced competitive options for railroad shippers. Meanwhile, in the cargo security sector, federal prosecutors have indicted eight individuals in what they allege was a massive carrier impersonation scheme targeting shipments moving through logistics facilities in New Jersey, Pennsylvania and Virginia between October 2025 and April 2026. Prosecutors allege the group stole approximately $4.49 million worth of products, including lamb, cheese, beef, copper and cigarettes, by obtaining legitimate carrier information and using it to impersonate those carriers at pickup locations with matching carrier names, MC numbers and DOT numbers on their tractor-trailers. Finally, we explore how FedEx is teaming up with a major Chinese carrier to strengthen its air logistics footprint in Asia. FedEx Corp. and the air cargo arm of China Southern Airlines signed a memorandum of understanding in Guangzhou, agreeing to strategically collaborate on ways to improve the efficiency and service capabilities of their air logistics networks. Under the agreement, the companies will explore cooperation opportunities in several areas, including capacity sharing, routes, hub connections, network planning, fleet resources, ground operations and digitalization.

The 10 Commandments E11 — The 8th Commandment, “Do not steal,” seems straightforward enough. But why does God forbid theft in ancient Israel? What harm can come to a community where people's property is always vulnerable? And what lies beneath the surface of our desire to take from our neighbor what doesn't belong to us? In this episode, Jon and Tim unpack the eighth command, discovering its deeper invitations to contentment, generosity, and stewardship.
