Podcasts about tolls

On this week's edition of the Talking Michigan Transportation podcast, a conversation with J. Michael Skiba, also known as “Dr. Fraud,” a national expert on scams, like those proliferating in Michigan and other states, where text messages tell people they have unpaid road tolls. Skiba is department chair at Colorado State University Global where he oversees the Criminal Justice Department, including specializations in fraud, financial crime, and cybercrime. He discusses the psychology that prompts so many victims of online fraud to engage with scammers on smishing attempts. If you've been targeted, the FCC offers many tips. In April, the Michigan Department of Transportation released a video of Director Bradley C. Wieferich urging people not to respond to the texts.

In another 60 minute packed podcast, co-hosts Daniel Fontaine and Paul Minhas talk New West politics. First up to the bat is a discussion on the $110,000 Council committed to make permanent the Citizen Assembly. It was a pilot project that was initially heralded as an opportunity to streamline the city's engagement activities and make them more effective. While the survey says yes, a couple of NWP councillors said no. Find out why.Did you hear about the machete wielding thief who entered the Paradise Donair shop on 12th Street? He scared the living daylights out of the staff and was subsequently arrested and charge by the NWPD. Unfortunately, the judge let him out the next day and told him to 'behave'. What gives? Is this the new normal in New West?May Day has been around for 155 years. It used to receive lots of support from the School Board and City Council, but no more. While other organizations recently cobbled together get tens of thousands of tax dollars, May Day gets a fraction of that to keep the lights on. May Day Committee member Scott Rains let er rip at Council and told them the organization needs to regain its special status within the city. But were the politicians actually listening and willing to act? "Holy micromanagement Batman" said Councillor Nadine Nakagawa in response to a motion asking for more openness and transparency in city budget-making. If approved, it would have meant all projects at the city would have to have a budget and it would be readily available to the public. So why did the motion get voted down? Tolls. Levies. Congestion Pricing. You take your pick. It appears the BC NDP government is about to make driving your vehicle a lot more expensive. Have municipal politicians really convinced Victoria to give them new taxation power to help fund public transportation in Metro Vancouver? And will it really cost you $200 more per year to drive?We also do an event roundup and much, much more! If you like the podcast be sure to tell your friends and family and encourage them to follow.

We discuss share our overwhelming toll violations and parking ticket stories.

The Supreme Court made huge waves in the ongoing debate surrounding the rights of illegal immigrants in the United States when it temporarily blocked Trump's use of the Alien Enemies Act, which calls for the removal of identified gang members (from confirmed terrorist organizations), following the filing of an emergency application by the American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU). The order notes, “The Government is directed not to remove any member of the putative class of detainees from the United States until further order of this Court.” Of course, it has left many people divided, as it surrounds controversial members of the Venezuelan Tren da Aragua gang, as well as the Salvadoran MS-13 gang and several Mexican cartels. I will ask Michael A. Letts, the Founder, President, and CEO of InVest USA (a national grassroots non-profit organization that is helping hundreds of communities provide thousands of bulletproof vests for their police forces all across the U.S.), his thoughts about the Supreme Court intervening in the enforcement of the Alien Enemies Act.New York Gov. Kathy Hochul has instituted what she and her political cohorts call a “congestion pricing program,” which was approved by the Biden administration on Joe's way out of the White House. Hochul and company sought approval from Biden and his people because the program is a toll on roads built and maintained with federal dollars, which is a violation of federal law. The Trump administration reviewed the program, canceled the approval granted by Biden, and issued a deadline to end the collection of tolls. Hochul and other New York officials have, so far, ignored the Trump administration, but now faces an escalation as Transportation Secretary Sean Duffy has issued warnings that federal funding for construction projects in New York City will be cut off if the illegal toll isn't ended. I discuss the issue with Jay Beeber, Executive Director of Policy at the National Motorists Association, an organization dedicated to protecting American drivers against the tyranny of the anti-car movement. I was joined by Ron Edwards, host of The Ron Edwards American Experience. We discussed the arrest of former Dona Ana County Magistrate Judge Jose “Joel” Cano and his wife, Nancy, for tampering with evidence that was part of a probe by Homeland Security Investigations into their association with 23-year-old Cristhian Ortega-Lopez, who authorities say is linked to Tren de Aragua; also, the arrest of Milwaukee County, Wisconsin, Judge Hannah Dugan for intentionally misdirected federal agents away from a subject to be arrested in her courthouse, Eduardo Flores Ruiz, allowing the subject — an illegal alien — to evade arrest. We also discussed North Dakota Republican Governor Kelly Armstrong vetoing a bill that would have required school districts to keep books determined to be “sexually explicit” out of the reach of students.Become a supporter of Tapp into the Truth: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/tapp-into-the-truth--556114/supportInVest USATruth, Lies and Control: Finding Hope in an Upside-Down WorldNational Motorist Association Ron EdwardsIf you love high-quality jerky, you need to check out Jerky Snob.

Since it introduced congestion pricing in January, New York City has seen some impressive results: fewer cars on the road, faster travel times, and millions in revenue. As Toronto faces its own congestion crisis, is it time for Ontario's capital city to reconsider its take on tolls? To discuss we welcome Jennifer Keesmaat, CEO of Collecdev-Markee, and former chief planner of the City of Toronto; Matti Siemiatycki, Professor of Geography and Planning and Director of the Infrastructure Institute at the University of Toronto; and Teresa Di Felice: Assistant vice-president of government and community relations at CAA South Central Ontario.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

  Amy Cerato, a civil engineer and president of Pike off OTA, discusses the organization's opposition to the Oklahoma Turnpike Authority's (OTA) proposed 59-mile turnpike expansion. Cerato argues that the OTA, funded by revenue bonds, lacks oversight and prioritizes profit over public need, citing the construction of economically unviable turnpikes. She advocates for improving existing infrastructure and rural roads instead of building new turnpikes, emphasizing the negative impact of sprawl and the need to protect Oklahoma's natural resources.   Cerato advocates for eliminating tolls on Oklahoma turnpikes, arguing that the state gas tax and federal funds can cover maintenance costs. She criticizes the Oklahoma Turnpike Authority (OTA) for misallocating funds and proposes legislation to increase oversight, including a debt ceiling. Cerato also discusses a recent meeting in Norman, where she and others provided information and support to residents potentially affected by a proposed turnpike extension.   In concert with many Oklahoman's, Cerato expresses frustration with Oklahoma's eminent domain laws, arguing they favor industry over citizens. She advocates for stricter laws, including fair compensation and a more transparent process, citing examples of inadequate offers made by the Oklahoma Turnpike Authority. Cerato also highlights the need for legislative action and citizen engagement to protect private property rights.   pikeoffota.com

Inez Stepman of the Independent Women's Forum fills in for Jim today. Join Inez and Greg for 3 Martini Lunch as they analyze the U.S. decision to designate cartels and gangs as terrorist organizations, President Trump's sharp criticism of Ukrainian President Zelensky, and the latest developments on congestion tolls in New York City, where Andrew Cuomo's political ambitions are taking shape.First, they commend the State Department for labeling MS-13, Tren de Aragua, and several cartels as terrorist organizations. They discuss why this designation matters, the impact it may have, and how it aligns with Trump's national security strategy.Next, they break down President Trump's strong criticism of Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky. They examine where Trump's rhetoric diverges from the facts and how how Trump most likely believes this statement will help bring the war to an end. And while Trump and others have suggested possible Ukrainian concessions to reach a deal, Greg and Inez also consider what demands should be placed on Russia.Finally, they dive into two major news items in New York City, where Inez resides.
