It happens in Washington D.C. all the time but also in state legislatures, political decisions are often made down the party lines with members voting with the official policy or opinion of one's political party. What happens when those policies work for cities but not for the rural districts of a state? That challenge could not be showcased better than in Washington State, which ranks second in the nation for agricultural production but also has cities like Seattle and Spokane to care for. FOX's Tonya J. Powers speaks with Washington State Senator Drew MacEwen (R) who says there is a balancing act in meeting the needs and interests of rural areas in a state and its cities, and he also shares plenty of reasons to visit his beautiful state.

Senate Parliamentarian Elizabeth MacDonough has struck several provisions from the 'One Big Beautiful Bill,' ruling they violate the Byrd Rule — a strict set of criteria budget reconciliation bills must follow to avoid a filibuster. The cuts—ranging from gun suppressor deregulation to Medicaid caps—have angered House Republicans, who passed the bill by just one vote. Senior Congressional Correspondent Chad Pergram explains what was removed, the implications for the bill's survival, and what Republicans might do next. He also weighs in on the fallout from U.S. airstrikes on Iranian nuclear sites and the sharp partisan divide over their impact. Later, Senator Marsha Blackburn (R-TN) shares what she learned about the challenging and often dangerous duties ICE agents possess after experiencing it first-hand, and why she remains optimistic about the potential impact the "Big Beautiful Bill" could have if it passes.

Slavik began by hammering home that Sean “Diddy” Combs was the unquestioned leader of a criminal enterprise—a “kingdom” built on wealth, fame, and a loyal inner circle ready to do his bidding. She painted a picture of Combs as empowered by his status and surrounded by lieutenants—assistants and security personnel—who enabled violent and criminal conduct. Addressing the racketeering conspiracy, she reminded jurors that the law views group crime as more dangerous, arguing that Combs's enterprise committed hundreds of predicate acts: from drug distribution and bribery to witness tampering and forced labor. She emphasized that Combs “doesn't take no for an answer” and “used power, violence and fear to get what he wanted,” spotlighting the relationship between his authority and the alleged crimes.Slavik then pivoted to the heart of the case—the sex‑trafficking and “freak‑off” allegations. She revisited testimony from former partners Cassie Ventura and Jane, underlining how they were allegedly drugged and coerced into participating in orgies with escorts, all orchestrated by Combs. She stressed that “drugs were an essential ingredient” in these events, part of how Combs maintained control and compliance, procuring substances through his enterprise. ith stark imagery and ferocity, she alleged that he repeatedly “forced, threatened and manipulated” victims—making it clear that this was a pattern of exploitation, not isolated incidents.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource: @innercitypress
After lunch, Slavik resumed by delving deeper into the case of the witness known as “Jane,” outlining the four stages of her relationship with Combs—from early “love‑bombing” to repeated “hotel nights” (or “freak‑offs”) orchestrated under Combs's control via lies, threats, and the looming possibility of losing housing or having intimate recordings released. She emphasized that even a single coerced encounter—if facilitated by his enterprise—met the legal definition of sex trafficking. “You do not need to find that all of the freak‑offs… were force or coercion,” she told jurors; “if there was one time, one single freak‑off, when the defendant knew or recklessly disregarded that [Jane] was participating because of his lies, his threats or his violence—then that's it. He's guilty”Shifting focus, Slavik then tackled the transportation-for-prostitution counts, showing how Combs and his aides paid for male escorts to travel—through flights, hotels, and bank records—to facilitate these encounters. She dismissed the notion of consensual participation, arguing that it “doesn't matter” whether the escorts consented—the crime lies in transporting them for paid sexual activity. She underscored that the enterprise facilitated this process, reinforcing the RICO charge's breadth. Shortly before the afternoon break, Slavik turned back to Cassie Ventura's situation, pointing to the strategic use of text messages and fear-based threats—recalling that Combs blackmailed her with videos and deployed violence and control tactics—to show the jury how a pattern of coercion extended across relationshipsto contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource: @innercitypress
Right after the lunch recess, Slavik resumed by focusing on Combs's relationship with “Jane,” the pseudonymous ex-girlfriend. She recapped how Combs escalated from “love‑bombing” with gifts and trips to coercive “hotel-night” sessions, leveraging his control over Jane's living situation and finances. She emphasized that even a single coerced “freak-off” session is enough for a sex-trafficking conviction, reminding the jury that Jane testified: “I didn't want it to feel too real… it just made things easier,” indicating she participated out of fear and manipulation.Slavik then turned to racketeering and witness tampering, detailing how Combs and associates reached out to Jane and former assistant “Mia” after Cassie Ventura's lawsuit—playing recordings of calls where he encouraged Jane to downplay her experiences and used D‑Roc's presence to intimidate Mia, who testified she felt “terrified”Christy Slavik concluded her nearly five-hour closing argument with a powerful, emotional plea that marked a clear turning point in her case. First, she reminded the jury that regardless of how disturbing the evidence was, it “proves to you that the defendant is guilty beyond a reasonable doubt.” Then, with quiet force, she directly appealed to the jurors: “Up until today, the defendant was able to get away with his crimes because of his money, power and influence. It's time to hold him accountable. It's time for justice. It's time to find the defendant guilty.”By ending her summation this way, Slavik framed the jury's role sharply: Combs's fame, wealth, and the influence that once shielded him must no longer be a barrier to accountability. Her closing words repositioned the deliberation as a matter of principle—justice over privilege—and underscored the gravity of the decision now entrusted to the twelve jurors. to contact me: bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:@innercitypress
Pat Leahy and Cormac McQuinn join Jack Horgan-Jones to look back on the week in politics: · US President Donald Trump was the main attraction at a landmark Nato summit on Wednesday with Nato secretary general Mark Rutte calling him ‘Daddy' during their press conference. Trump got what he came for with Nato member states agreeing to an increase of 5 per cent of GDP in defence spending. · Over at the EU leaders summit on Thursday, defence spending was also high on the agenda with Ireland backing the EU's €150bn defence plan. The war in Gaza was highlighted too with Taoiseach Micheál Martin unable to comprehend how Europe doesn't seem capable of putting any pressure on Israel to stop it. And with Trump's tariffs pause set to end on July 9th, Ireland and other EU countries will be forgiven for looking at India and China as greater trading partners. · Do policy interventions like reviewing RPZs compensate for the delayed release of the Government's housing plan? The document won't be published until after the summer.· Presidential candidates are still pretty thin on the ground with Fine Gael's Seán Kelly saying he “could do a lot” as president but stopped short of declaring he actually will enter the race. Plus, the panel picks their favourite Irish Times pieces of the week:· The endurance test that Irish concert-goers have to go through is worth it, Democratic mayoral primary Zohran Mamdani shocks as New York swelters, and Jaws and its Irish connection.

Why are politicians trying to ban the safer alternatives to cigarettes… while leaving cigarettes untouched? What's the real motivation behind targeting products like Zyn and vapes? Is this about protecting public health—or protecting power and control? Studio Sponsor: Cardio Miracle - "Unlock the secret to a healthier heart, increased energy levels, and transform your cardiovascular fitness like never before.": CardioMiracle.com/TBNS In this punchy, eye-opening episode of The Brian Nichols Show, we dive headfirst into the war on nicotine alternatives. Host Brian Nichols sits down with health policy analyst and harm reduction fellow Sophia Hamilton to break down why the government is so obsessed with regulating—if not outright banning—products like Zyn pouches. Spoiler: it has nothing to do with safety and everything to do with outdated narratives, political grandstanding, and generational ignorance. Sophia walks us through how the government's crackdown on Juul created a black market mess, how Zyn emerged as a cleaner, safer alternative, and why politicians like Chuck Schumer are frothing at the mouth to ban it next. Even though studies show these products are far less harmful than traditional tobacco, that's not stopping the Nanny State from stepping in. Brian and Sophia also dig into the generational divide fueling this hysteria—highlighting how Gen Z is rejecting alcohol and cigarettes but is being punished for making safer, informed choices. The hypocrisy is rich: the same boomers who once fell for Big Tobacco ads now want to control what young people can and can't use, despite overwhelming data and personal autonomy. And let's not forget the role of the FDA, which seems more interested in gatekeeping and bureaucracy than in approving harm-reduction products that actually help people quit smoking. This isn't just a public health failure—it's a prime example of government overreach making life worse, not better.

The UK has once more missed its tree planting targets - provisional figures for last year show that overall the number of trees planted fell in comparison with the year before, from 20 and a half thousand hectares to just over 15 and a half thousand hectares. The Government aims for 30,000 every year. New figures from the farming industry body the AHDB show that 190 dairy farmers left the industry last year. There are now 7,040 dairy producers in England, Wales and Scotland. That's a 2.6 per cent fall from the year before. But, despite that, there has been an increase in the amount of milk produced. We ask a dairy farmer why so many are leaving.English olive oil is now a reality, after a Cornish olive grower pressed his first oil last winter. Nik Butcher claims to be the first person to bottle English olive oil commercially since the Roman times. So could English olive oil one day prove as successful as English sparkling wine? All this week we've been hearing from those about to embark on farming related careers. For many students the exams are now over and they're just waiting for the results. For others, the wait is over, and we hear from three graduates from CAFRE, Northern Ireland's College of Agriculture Food and Rural Enterprise.Presented by Charlotte Smith and produced by Sally Challoner.

Top officials gave updated damage assessments on the Trump administration's historic bunker bust of Iran's nuclear program. On Thursday, both the President and U.S. Defense Secretary Hegseth pushed back on media reports downplaying the efficacy of the strikes, emphasizing this was a "highly successful mission." FOX News Sunday anchor Shannon Bream joins to discuss the latest updates on Iran's nuclear capabilities, New York's Mayoral Democratic primary, and a Supreme Court ruling on funding to Planned Parenthood.

God Always Wins: Saving Grace Through Divine Liberation In Today's Take Your Power Back Show, host Kim Yeater confronts a critical question: MEDICAL DECEPTION: Should You Place Your Faith in God or Government? Our title, God Always Wins: Saving Grace Through Divine Liberation, draws from Rev. Dr. Robert A. Schuller's powerful book and Scott Schara's fight for his daughter Grace, a 19-year-old with Down syndrome killed by hospital protocols during COVID-19. We're exposing a disturbing truth: medical murder and government deception are real. Paul Harvey's prophetic speech, “If I Were the Devil, a warning that echoes today's crisis. outlines how the devil would erode society through deception, division, and eroded faith, echoed in Schuller's book.)

Why are politicians trying to ban the safer alternatives to cigarettes… while leaving cigarettes untouched? What's the real motivation behind targeting products like Zyn and vapes? Is this about protecting public health—or protecting power and control? Studio Sponsor: Cardio Miracle - "Unlock the secret to a healthier heart, increased energy levels, and transform your cardiovascular fitness like never before.": CardioMiracle.com/TBNS In this punchy, eye-opening episode of The Brian Nichols Show, we dive headfirst into the war on nicotine alternatives. Host Brian Nichols sits down with health policy analyst and harm reduction fellow Sophia Hamilton to break down why the government is so obsessed with regulating—if not outright banning—products like Zyn pouches. Spoiler: it has nothing to do with safety and everything to do with outdated narratives, political grandstanding, and generational ignorance. Sophia walks us through how the government's crackdown on Juul created a black market mess, how Zyn emerged as a cleaner, safer alternative, and why politicians like Chuck Schumer are frothing at the mouth to ban it next. Even though studies show these products are far less harmful than traditional tobacco, that's not stopping the Nanny State from stepping in. Brian and Sophia also dig into the generational divide fueling this hysteria—highlighting how Gen Z is rejecting alcohol and cigarettes but is being punished for making safer, informed choices. The hypocrisy is rich: the same boomers who once fell for Big Tobacco ads now want to control what young people can and can't use, despite overwhelming data and personal autonomy. And let's not forget the role of the FDA, which seems more interested in gatekeeping and bureaucracy than in approving harm-reduction products that actually help people quit smoking. This isn't just a public health failure—it's a prime example of government overreach making life worse, not better. You do not want to miss this one. We have a new show on Lions of Liberty!
