In Session 3 of the 2026 Bainbridge Community Foundation Spring Financial Education Series, Paul sits down with Mike Piper — CPA, Personal Financial Specialist, and the voice behind the Oblivious Investor blog and the free Open Social Security calculator — for one of the warmest, most practical conversations of the series. Mike has a rare gift: taking the topics that intimidate most investors and making them feel obvious. Over the course of the hour, he and Paul work through the handful of decisions that genuinely shape a retirement.Mike opens with a quietly radical idea: if you've prepared well, "more than enough" isn't the exception — it's the most likely outcome. Because we have to plan for long lifespans, poor markets, and high medical costs that usually don't all come to pass, most disciplined savers end up with leftovers. From there, he explains which dollars to spend first each year, how age and capital gains should steer whether you draw from taxable or retirement accounts, and why the step-up in basis matters more than most people realize.The conversation turns to the human side of money, too — how to talk a couple through it when one spouse is aggressive and the other can't stand the thought of the stock market, why both positions are almost always driven by fear, and how framing the trade-offs around the people you love often brings them closer together. Mike and Paul also tackle the spendthrift-child dilemma, the case for matching a young person's Roth IRA, and why small gifts early can dwarf an inheritance received at 70.On Social Security, Mike makes the point that most people get the risk exactly backwards: delaying benefits isn't a gamble — it's insurance against the scary scenario of living a very long time. He walks through what really happens if Congress does nothing before the trust fund shortfall around 2033 (hint: the program doesn't disappear), and the range of fixes on the table. Throughout, both men return to the same theme — simple, low-cost, broadly diversified portfolios keep beating the clever alternatives, and the Bessembinder research helps explain why.Stick around for the closing exchange on using AI to learn from the "Truth Tellers" — and Mike's cautionary tale about a chatbot that invented an entire tax-code provision, word for word and completely convincingly, that simply does not exist.LINKS:Mike Piper's blog — obliviousinvestor.comOpen Social Security — opensocialsecurity.comMike's books on Amazon — https://bit.ly/49BQugdOblivious Investor — https://bit.ly/4oeIacsWe're Talking Millions!

Why does Trump understand the media better than the media understands him? Are tech billionaires like Elon Musk and Jeff Bezos more dangerous to journalism than Rupert Murdoch ever was? What did Tina Brown see change in Trump from the '80s to now, and when did he turn "dark"? Alastair and Rory are joined by Tina Brown, author of the Substack 'Fresh Hell' and former editor-in-chief of Tatler, Vanity Fair, and The New Yorker, to discuss all these questions and more.

Ephesians:  Gospel-Shaped Relationships. Part 3:  Truth TellersPaul spends three chapters reminding believers in Ephesus who they are in Christ; a new identity that shapes their relationships with each other. After establishing their gospel identity, Paul provides a list of behaviors to abandon and virtues to embrace, explaining the reason behind each instruction. Lying is a behavior that breaks trust and destroys community. By contrast, honesty builds and deepens our connections with each other.

Ukraine is winning, and a botox-bloated Putin looks like a dead-man walking. While the spineless MAGA right still tries to block aid, Ukrainian innovation has turned Russia's imperialist delusion into an embarrassing nightmare, as predicted on Gaslit Nation at the start of the full-scale invasion. Award-winning war reporter James Verini, author of The Theater: Courage and Survival in the Defining Atrocity of the Ukraine War, joins Gaslit Nation to discuss the desperation rattling Moscow. Putin wanted a grand Cold War rematch, but instead, he's trapped in a catastrophic, modern-day Afghanistan with a staggering one million Russian casualties. The reality the MAGA death cult and isolationists ignore? Ukraine is the true vanguard of global democracy. They are out-innovating Goliath with world-leading drone technology and defending the open society while MAGA lackeys play craven partisan games. Putin's radical, Dugin-fueled imperial ego has officially broken Russia, much like Trump's is breaking the U.S. To beat Big Tech censorship, subscribe to Gaslit Nation's Patreon at the Truth-Teller level or higher today.

In this message from Matthew 14, Pastor Karl explores two seemingly separate events — the beheading of John the Baptist and the feeding of the five thousand — and reveals how they are deeply connected as a portrait of two contrasting kingdoms.Drawing on the parallel between Herod's banquet and Jesus's meal in the wilderness, Pastor Karl shows what sets the kingdom of the world apart from the kingdom of God: one ends in death, self-service, and corruption; the other in life, compassion, and abundance. Through the stories of Elijah, Elisha, and Moses, he demonstrates that the disciples had all the history they needed to trust Jesus in the moment — and yet, like us, they forgot.At the heart of this teaching is a simple but powerful truth: you are insufficient, but you are not useless. The kingdom of God doesn't have a supply problem — it has a distribution problem. God has never asked how much you have. He only asks what you have — and what you place in his hands, he multiplies.Discipleship, Pastor Karl argues, always involves cost, courage, compassion, commands, and cooperation. The good news is that the Good Shepherd is more than sufficient for all his sheep.Watch all our sermons on our youtube channel "Flipside Christian Church"Join us in person 8:00am, 9:30am & 11:00am every Sunday morning.37193 Ave 12 #3h, Madera, CA 93636For more visit us at flipside.churchFor more podcasts visit flipsidepodcasts.transistor.fm

Blessed Are The Truth-Tellers (5.17.26, Alison Noll) by River NYC Sermons

What if the most important decision you ever make isn't about your career, your goals, or your next move — but about who you let close enough to speak into your life? EPISODE OVERVIEW In this episode, BRI and PAC dig into the Dream Team chapter from PAC's book Magnum Opus: The Art of Becoming One of One — a deeply practical, architectural look at the five people every person needs in their corner to actually become who they're meant to be. This isn't a conversation about having friends. It's a conversation about building a board. And the difference between those two things might be exactly what's been missing. KEY THEMES EXPLORED Why hyper-individualism is a lie we've been sold — the best leaders are built in community, not in isolation Proximity breeds intimacy: why online mentors and thought leaders can't replace people who actually know you The five Dream Team archetypes: The Encourager, The Truth Teller, The Covenant Friend, The Specialist, and The Wise Sage What it really means to have a Covenant Friend — someone who doesn't love your potential, they love your person The difference between knowledge and wisdom — and why you need a Wise Sage who gives generously without needing credit Why you can predict someone's future by who has access into their life — and what that means for the relationships you're maintaining right now Dating apps, courage, and what in-person vulnerability has to do with the kind of person you're becoming   WHY IT MATTERS You can't become one of one in isolation. Every masterpiece is shaped by the hands that had access to it. The people you let into your life aren't just your support system — they are actively shaping your ceiling. This episode gives you the language and the framework to audit your circle, fill the gaps, and start showing up as the kind of person worth having on someone else's Dream Team. CLOSING INVITATION Your Dream Team isn't just a list — it's a mirror. Adrian and Bri don't just describe these archetypes. They name them, challenge you, and make you feel every gap. If this episode made you think about someone specific — reach out to them this week. That's the whole point. New episodes of the New Rules Podcast drop every Wednesday. Don't miss one.

We dragged him through House of Flame and Shadow Chapters 29–35 anyway: Bryce gets shackled by her absolute trash bag of a father, the Autumn King helps himself to Truth-Teller (rude), Ithan goes necromancer-shopping to un-kill Sigrid (we have Thoughts on resurrection cheapening a death, thank you), Jesiba Roga continues to live in Melissa's head as Joe Rogan for reasons no one can explain, Lidia FINALLY reveals herself by dunking on The Hawk in an elevator — RIP the coolest name with the least impactful death — and then casually saves the entire gang before nuzzling Ruhn goodbye and yeeting herself off a cliff (with a bullet, just for fun). If your boyfriend/husband/situationship has ever side-eyed your SJM obsession, this is the episode to put on in the car — Zeke is the everyman ambassador and he's doing his best.

Conversations with trailblazers in the creative industries who use their talents in theatre, visual arts and beyond, to tell stories of our people. 

On this hopeful Gaslit Nation, we confront the MAGA fascist takeover with a look at the ultimate antidote: how to be a dissident. Andrea talks with The Atlantic's Gal Beckerman about his inspiring new book, How to Be a Dissident. While the establishment chooses conformity to protect their wealth, we explore the rare, stubborn individuals—from the abolitionists to the neighbors in Minnesota forming mutual care networks—who ask themselves the only question that matters: Can I live with myself if I obey in advance? As the toppling of Kremlin allies Assad and Orban, and soon Trump, have reminded us: the human spirit's desire for expression is the one thing a dictatorship can never defeat. Join us this Thursday for part two of our discussion on the Gaslit Nation Bonus Show–how to survive the stomach ache of fear and build an unrelenting culture of resistance. To listen to the full episode, subscribe to our Patreon at the Truth-Teller level ($5/month) or higher.

This conversation first aired on Star Wars Generations and we're sharing it here because it raises exactly the kind of question this show was built for.Maul is the only one in the room telling the truth and nobody will believe him. At the halfway point of Maul: Shadow Lord, Matthew Fox is joined by returning guests Pete Wright and AK Ahab to dig into what kind of show this actually is and what to make of a character who has been a Sisyphean tragic figure across every corner of Star Wars canon.The three hosts debate whether Maul is genuinely manipulative or just agenda-driven and honest. AK's reading — that Maul is too deep in self-deception to deliberately deceive anyone else — reshapes the whole conversation. They also get into the show's tonal balancing act: the crime noir Lawson subplot, the casting of a major actress in what might be a very small role, and the very real risk that the show trades its freshest ideas for a predictable Order 66 beat and a Padawan-falls arc. The meditation sequence in Episode 6 alone sent AK back to rewatch The Phantom Menace fight, because Maul's fighting form here doesn't match his onscreen history, and that gap is either a brilliant character insight or an oncoming problem.There's genuine enthusiasm for Maul: Shadow Lord in this conversation, and genuine anxiety about where the back half is headed. Both feel earned.itsmeepete.comConnect with AK: Instagram · Twitter/X**************************************************************************This episode is a production of Superhero Ethics, an Ethical Panda podcast and part of the TruStory FM Entertainment Podcast Network.

Welcome to "The Other Side of Midnight," the live late-night show where the truth comes out after dark. In this wildly unpredictable episode, host Walter Sterling dives into the mysterious and sudden disappearances of top military and scientific UFO whistleblowers. We also take a bizarre trip down south for "Florida Stories," featuring a naked Waffle House dancer and a man whipping a mule in a Walmart pillow aisle, before breaking down a chaotic double-knife fight at an upstate New York Walmart.

Tom Haberstroh, Amin Elhassan and producer Anthony Mayes are definitely on James Dolan's enemies list, as they tackled Pablo Torre's latest surveillance story way back in October 2022. The coaching carousel is in full swing as Billy Donovan steps down in Chicago, Jamahl Mosley is allegedly a dead man walking despite Orlando stunning the Pistons in Game 1, and Steve Kerr appears to be riding off into the sunset. MVP Tracker Max Croes re-joins the program to explain how he scours the media for data to connect the dots on awards voters' ballots.

When you're running for office be your authentic self and tell the truth. You have to tell everybody what you have done for them and what you want to do. You have to listen to them. You shouldn't be scripted. Shoot from the hip; talk from the heart. And you can tell them how you can't get things done without having the House and Senate, but this is what I would like to do. What makes sense for all Americans. But you have to point out the opponent -- things are hurting them. Ask them not to be a one issue voter; you're not voting for perfect but for Good. ~Pat CeasarPat Ceasar, Pat Is a Comic/Actor/Writer/ Director/DP and an Artist & Storyteller. After attending the Art Institute of Boston at Leslie College she started her career working on Political advertising in Boston as an Art Director.

Richard Pryor redefined comedy by telling the truth, even when it scorched him.Today, we're sharing a preview of a new podcast, Big Lives, and a special episode about Pryor.Every week, hosts Kai Wright and Emmanuel Dzotsi dig into the BBC archive to explore the story behind the icons who shape our culture—trailblazers like David Bowie, Meg Ryan, Amy Winehouse, and Tina Turner—and better understand how each legend set the stage for our contemporary cultural landscape. In this preview, Kai and Emmanuel look at how Richard Pryor rose from a Peoria, Illinois brothel to become comedy's GOAT, only to then wrestle with racism, fame, desire, and self‑destruction.

Ken Carman and Anthony Lima react to Todd Monken's defensive press conference comments regarding his absence from the NFL coaches photo. They debate whether Monken's candid personality would thrive in Cleveland or if it mirrors the failures of the Freddie Kitchens era. The discussion also touches on why Monken's authentic nature may have hindered his path to becoming a head coach.

As Donald Trump holds the world hostage with his sloppy Iran War, and JD Vance campaigns for Orban, the Kremlin's weapon in Hungary, Gaslit Nation returns to a shared family history of resistance. Andrea is joined this week by the brilliant artist Maya Hayuk to break down the story behind Andrea's new graphic novel, Mrs. Orwell. Born from a decade of research into the Holodomor, Stalin's genocide famine in Ukraine, Mrs. Orwell is a monument to an unsung heroine of literature and the truth the Kremlin tried to bury. We also cover the horrifying reality of the current front lines of Russia's invasion of Ukraine, where the UNESCO heritage site of L'viv's ancient city center was bombed by Russia while the U.S. sleepwalks through yet another "war of choice." While we share the intense rage of seeing Ukrainians having to bailout Trump and Vance in Iran, we remain focused on the agency of the people. The oligarch mafia model, which relies on apathy, despair, and nihilism, is being challenged by a culture of defiance.  We end with a miraculous artifact: a 1947 Ukrainian translation of Animal Farm discovered in both Andrea and Maya's families. This book, distributed in post-WWII refugee camps, is a sign that the spirit of rebellion cannot be extinguished. We refuse to be "useful idiots" for the transnational crime network; we have each other, and we are going to build a better world from the ashes.  For our bonus episode out later this week, we take a closer look at JD and Usha Vance's trip to Hungary to serve the Kremlin, and the latest hellscape headlines. To listen, subscribe to our Patreon at the Truth-Teller level ($5/month) or higher. For more on the Ukrainian refugee camp Animal Farm, read Andrea's book Orwell and The Refugees: The Untold Story of Animal Farm, which Patreon supporters at the Truth-teller ($10/month) and up level get for free.  Your support gives us the freedom to tell the truth–thank you for making Gaslit Nation possible!

The Top 5 Issues Managing Multiple AI Agents in Production Managing 1-2 AI agents? Easy. Managing 20+? That's a different game entirely. After 9+ months running nearly 30 AI agents in production at SaaStr, we've learned what actually breaks at scale - and nobody's talking about it. This isn't about deployment tips or vendor selection. This is about the brutal realities that only emerge when you're juggling 20+ agents generating $1M+ in revenue.

You can read every book and master every habit, but if you're the smartest person in your circle, your growth has a ceiling. In this episode, Clay and Adam tackle the often-overlooked reality that isolation is the enemy of excellence—and that staying lonely as a leader is a choice that stunts your potential.They introduce the concept of a "Relationship Portfolio": the four types of people every growing leader needs. The Mentor (someone 2–3 stages ahead), The Peer (iron sharpening iron), The Truth-Teller (the person with permission to call out your blind spots), and The Protégé (someone you're pouring into). You'll learn how to move from accidental relationships to engaged ones, how to make the "asymmetrical ask" when reaching out to a mentor, and why explicitly giving people permission to challenge you changes everything.The truth? We are the average of the five people we spend the most time with. This episode will challenge you to audit your circle and ask: Are these relationships stretching you, or just comforting you?Key Question: Who is one person you need to invite into your growth journey this week—and what specific permission do you need to give them?

Where are the people who are grateful God woke them up? Where are the people who understand they are an heir to God and pray with authority? Where are the people who tell the truth, no matter how it may make someone feel? Where are the SET APART BELIEVERS who aren't in mixture??

Our democracy has been hijacked by an elite pedophile ring–one that has always been operating in plain sight. This week, Andrea and Russian mafia expert Olga Lautman dig into the horror show of the recently released Epstein files. As students of Soviet history, we know the truth: what we know is horrific, but what has yet to be revealed is much worse. Did Epstein, Trump, and their friends kill for pleasure–how many of their victims were murdered or died by suicide? Who wrote Epstein an email about a torture video? Is that person in power, wielding influence over our lives? We also examine Epstein's freelance intelligence work, showing how he collected kompromat to consolidate power through elite capture, pollinating corruption through the transnational crime syndicate, especially the autocratic regimes of Russia and Israel.  We lift up the voices of the survivors and their advocates who demand the full release of the Epstein Files. Despite a bipartisan Congressional act, only an estimated half of the six million files have been released. Convicted felon Donald Trump's former personal defense attorney, Todd Blanche, is the Deputy Attorney General, helping lead the cover-up. The only silver lining in this extreme darkness is that the truth is finally coming to light, and American society, especially the media who glamorized Epstein, are no longer able to ignore it.  For our bonus episode this week, we answer your questions about the Epstein files, rising autocracy, and more.

Real-time analytics at a petabyte scale isn't just a technical challenge; it's a business survival requirement. Catherine Johnson, VP of Global Solutions Engineering at Hydrolix, joins the show to deconstruct the "impossible" architecture required to power the 2025 Super Bowl broadcast for Fox Sports. From managing 1.4 petabytes of daily log data to the brutal reality of why traditional auto-scaling fails during mission-critical events, Catherine reveals the strategic framework behind being a "Truth Teller" in the high-stakes world of Solutions Engineering.Key Takeaways1. Data Architecture as a Competitive Moat- Normalization is Non-Negotiable: At a petabyte scale, you cannot afford "dirty" data. Success requires normalizing disparate CDN logs—matching units (ms vs. s) and handling recursive URL encoding—into a single, queryable schema.- Indexing vs. Regex: Computational intensity kills performance. Strategic indexing for exact matches must replace regular expressions for high-frequency queries to avoid massive, costly table scans.- Schema Flexibility: Implementing multiple schemas on a single table allows for both granular technical deep-dives and high-level executive overviews without duplicating storage.2. Scaling Strategies for "High-Intensity" Events- The Limits of Auto-scaling: For predictable surges like the Super Bowl, relying on auto-scaling is a risk. Pre-scaling to 3x expected peak ensures availability when AWS regional compute limits are hit.- Multi-Region Redundancy: True global scale often exceeds the capacity of a single cloud region. Architecting for multi-region deployment is a requirement, not an option, for Tier-1 broadcast events.- Segregated Query Pools: Prevent "compute competition" by isolating resources. Executive dashboards, SRE monitoring, and ad-hoc troubleshooting should never fight for the same compute cycles.3. Solutions Engineering as "Truth Telling"- The Trust-Based Framework: A Solution Engineer's (SE) primary role isn't selling—it's building trust through accurate empathy. If the product isn't a fit, say it. Protecting your professional reputation outlasts any single sales cycle.- Root Cause Inquiry: When a customer asks for a feature or query optimization, pause. Don't answer the technical question until you've uncovered the business outcome they are trying to achieve.- Business Mapping: Every technical requirement must map directly to a business requirement. If it doesn't, it's just unnecessary complexity.4. The "Break-Fast" Learning Philosophy- Fearless Experimentation: The learning curve is shortened by breaking things in dedicated environments. If you only follow the "happy path" of a tutorial, you haven't actually learned the system.- Bridging Data Realities: There is often a gap between how data is stored for performance and how it looks in the real world. Success in SE requires the ability to bridge these two perspectives for the customer.Chapters:00:10 - Introduction: Meet Catherine Johnson00:50 - The Origins of Hydrolix: Solving the CDN Log Crisis06:10 - Deep Dive: Behind the Scenes of the 2025 Super Bowl10:14 - When the Path Changes: Adjusting Architecture Mid-Season14:25 - Multi-Region Deployment & AWS Compute Limits16:51 - Half-Second Query Times: How to Segregate Compute25:49 - The Non-Obvious Skills of Top-Tier SEs31:32 - The "Farming" Lesson: Understanding How Businesses Make Money37:04 - Lightning RoundVisit our website - https://saassessions.com/Connect with me on LinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/in/sunilneurgaonkar/

Send us a messageThe focus of this message will not be on any man or woman who proclaims that they are gay, transgender, or any of the many other descriptive terms for this – and again I call it out – demonic spirit – but on the demonic agenda behind it.This spirit manifests itself in many unique ways. In fact, on what has been dubbed the “1000 Gender List”  a vast array of identities encompass such titles as gay, nonbinary, genderfluid, agender, bigender, pangender– and many, many more. All of which are a fist in the face of God and His Divine Order – and a death knell – apart from genuine Repentance - for the one it has taken control over.While stepping out on a very slippery limb –  I do so boldly with love and Holy Spirit conviction, because I know that I have the parachute of Truth to protect me and to hold me up. And with time being so short – the Lord is raising up His remnant of Truth Tellers to herald His warning which will show the way of escape from sin's destruction, and into the Arms of the God of Love and the Eternal Life that can only be realized in Yeshua Hamashiach – Jesus the Christ!Support the showVisit our website: https://agapelightministries.com/

When actions align with words, trust is built. Trust is the foundation of relationships. 

Matthew 5:35-37

The world's leading philosophers and psychologists were based in Germany and Austria during the rise of Hitler. They studied the darkest chapter of human history while trying to make sense of it and survive it themselves. Their teachings are an urgent alarm for us today: fascists seek endless conflict through domination, and it will never be enough. Drawing on George Orwell's analysis of Hitler, we see that while democracy offers the radical concept of "having a good time," fascism preys on a neurotic, broken need for "struggle, danger, and death." It is an addiction to conflict, often first learned in the childhood home, according to Erich Fromm, that views empathy not as a virtue, but as a target.  Walter Benjamin, before losing his own life to suicide to avoid the concentration camps, pointed out that fascists seek pleasure in their own demise. It is the fleeting, hollow glee of a bully kicking over a sandcastle because he doesn't know how to build one. Joy is how we win. The hate-fueled fascist high is a non-renewable resource. It requires a constant supply of new enemies to sustain a house of cards built on lawlessness and corruption. True joy, born of community, love, and creation, is sustainable energy, even in the unlikeliest of places, as our heroes who came before us also showed us. Stay safe. Stay defiant. And find some joy today: it's the best revenge.

In this profound and paradigm-shifting episode of Get Real or Die Trying, host Amadon DellErba sits down at Sovereignty Ranch in Bandera, Texas with chef, regenerative farmer, author, & entrepreneur Mollie Engelhart ⁨ for a raw and uncompromising conversation about food, sovereignty, and what it really means to live in right relationship with nature.Mollie shares her journey from pioneering one of the most successful plant-based restaurant groups in the country to embracing regenerative farming, land stewardship, and food sovereignty — challenging dogma, identity, and tribal thinking along the way. Together, they dive into the psychology of belief, the weaponization of morality, the dangers of outsourcing authority, and why true sustainability starts with personal accountability, not ideology.This episode weaves together consciousness, ecology, motherhood, entrepreneurship, and spiritual awakening — revealing how food, fear, and freedom are far more connected than we've been led to believe.If you're ready to question everything you've been taught about health, ethics, control systems, and what it means to be a sovereign human in a collapsing world — this conversation will stretch you in all the right ways.

After nearly 200,000 cold calls and a million auto-dialer calls, Stephen Oommen discovered something shocking: 98% of his revenue came from warm referrals. Today, he breaks down how sellers can turn relationships into predictable growth. In this episode, host Lyndsay Dowd sits down with Stephen Oommen, a 25-year go-to-market veteran, speaker, and author of the upcoming book The Referral Effect. Stephen shares why nearly 98% of his business revenue came from warm referrals, despite making hundreds of thousands of cold calls throughout his career. Stephen opens up about growing up as the child of immigrants in Oklahoma, navigating an identity crisis that ultimately became his superpower—the Chameleon Effect—his ability to adapt, connect, and create trust across any environment. That skill later became the foundation for his referral-based sales methodology. You'll learn: - Why executives don't respond to cold outreach—and what they do respond to - How to close the trust gap by scaling warm referrals - The "Magic Networking Question" that instantly upgrades your network - The 99 and 1 Principle for managing energy in sales and relationships - How leaders can balance intensity, kindness, and long-term legacy If you're a B2B seller, founder, GTM leader, or executive tired of low-yield outreach, this conversation will challenge how you think about networking, sales culture, and growth.

This week we go into the dark heart of American Gestapo: Gregory Bovino's Border Patrol, which pushes ICE to become even more aggressive in his fascist feverdream.  Here to help us make sense of this hellscape is Nick Schwellenbach, a Senior Investigator at the Project on Government Oversight and former Communications Director at the U.S. Office of Special Counsel–a government agency set up after Watergate, meant to protect us from the next Nixon–more on that in this week's bonus show out Thursday.  Bovino grew up a Border Patrol fanboy idolizing fascist fiction and now stalks American cities in a Nazi-style trench coat with a taxpayer-funded film crew glamorizing his violent raids. Like Trump is a showman, Bovino is cruelty as a recruitment tool to consolidate power. Under his un-checked leadership, his border patrol army operates deep inside the U.S., smashing car windows, kidnapping U.S. citizens, and rounding up tens of thousands of people, including veterans and children, into detention centers where deaths are spiking at unprecedented rates.  With the help of questions submitted by a Gaslit Nation listener (thank you, Isabel!) we go into all the pressing questions about Bovino's Border Patrol and also ICE, including what happened to the children who disappeared under Trump's first term and what can be done to protect vulnerable immigrants today? As you listen to this episode, which opens with a clip of Bovino justifying shooting protesters with pepper balls, keep in mind Republicans gave ICE, which works closely with Bovino's Border Patrol, $75 billion over the next four years. They're also operating under aggressive weekly quotas. But is their war chest also for general population control?  For our bonus episode this week, we look at the safeguards that could have prevented Trump's return and why they didn't.

Turning to Bovino, the Court specifically finds his testimony not credible.  Bovino appeared evasive over the three days of his deposition, either providing "cute" responses to Plaintiffs' counsel's questions or outright lying."

Two weeks ago, Gaslit Nation pointed out that Vance is grooming the Christian nationalist movement to accept him as Trump's replacement. Turns out Vance knew–they all knew–that the Epstein paper trail was radioactive. The House released explosive Epstein documents that confirm what Gaslit Nation listeners already knew: the real story is not what's been revealed, but what's still being buried. We will continue to unpack this story as it develops, including the Kremlin connection as Epstein tried to advise Russia when it came to Trump.  For now, the Big Takeaways:  The emails released came from the Epstein estate. So what might Trump's DOJ and FBI be sitting on?: Photos, videos, and unredacted FBI and CIA files. Miami Herald reporter Julie K. Brown, whose investigations helped bring down Epstein and Ghislaine Maxwell, and the resignation of Trump labor secretary Alex Acosta who gave Epstein a "sweetheart deal" and was rewarded with a White House cabinet position, confirmed that thousands of records remain hidden, including: Epstein's original 2008 sex-trafficking indictment draft Search warrants from 2005 and 2019 raids Full lists of possible suspects and accomplices Witness statements and FBI and CIA files Autopsy and investigatory interviews into Epstein's death in prison The new release contains an April 2011 email from Epstein to Maxwell indicating that she misled the DOJ: she knew Trump had spent hours at Epstein's mansion with one of his victims. Epstein himself confirmed Trump's guilt, writing: "I have met some very bad people, none as bad as Trump." Epstein confirms that Trump knew about his pedophile ring. Of course he knew: That's why they were friends. The Epstein/Trump dump exposes Larry Summers, Clinton's Treasury Secretary and an economic adviser to Obama, decrying the MeToo movement in a private email to Epstein and making a sexist joke about women being stupid. Summers was the former president of Harvard University. Michael Wolff, media gossip profiteer and Trump whisperer, provided Epstein and sometimes Trump via Epstein with media consulting–in exchange for access to write his bestselling books. He was even Epstein's behind-the-scenes PR fixer during the Miami Herald investigations. Given that Epstein's victims have successfully sued banks for managing Epstein's human trafficking money, expect to see cases brought against Wolff. MAGA world is imploding. Trump huddled in the Situation Room with Pam Bondi, Kash Patel, and Lauren Boebert to stop the House vote. Boebert reportedly refused–likely because she faces a tough re-election campaign in a blue wave year. A new Democratic majority that finally includes Rep. Adelita Grijalva of Arizona will get their House vote to force the release of the full Epstein files. Once it passes the House, it still needs to clear 60 votes in the Senate. Trump is expected to veto it–after he and the MAGA disinformation machine ran on releasing the Epstein files, even accusing Biden of molesting his own daughter. For our bonus episode this week, we include the launch of Follow the Money, a new Gaslit Nation spinoff with Russian mafia expert Olga Lautman. In our first episode, we trace the Epstein-Trump financial nexus and expose the global corruption machine funding fascism.
