[Non-Paywall Source and Media Spin] President Trump has been cutting waste, fraud and abuse in runaway government spending; slashing costly regulations across all sectors of the economy and ending Green New Scam energy policy in favor of drill, baby, drill.  As noted by NEC Chairman Kevin Hasset, Trump has reduced deficit spending overall. There's still a long way to go, but significant MAGAnomic progress is being made.  Oh, and that skyrocketing “tariff inflation” the same shocked pundits proclaimed was sure to happen this time, well, that has not surfaced either.  Just like it didn't surface in 2018 or 2019 when the tariffs were applied the first time.

Time enough to make the economy shine come the mid-terms. Now we will start to see the fruits of that plan, and Trump’s speech tonight is to announce that. Is he right? One thing I’ve learned is to never bet against Trump. Maybe he is wrong. Maybe I’m wrong. But I still have trust. Political/Rights Nolte: Failing Oscars Demoted to YouTube Starting in 2029, the irrelevant Oscars will have its annual irrelevant Academy Awards show broadcast on — lol — YouTube. To dwindling ratings and cultural relevance, the Oscars have been broadcast on ABC since 1976. The final broadcast will occur in 2028, which also happens to be the 100th anniversary of the award ceremony. So now the Oscars will stream on YouTube, where anyone who wants to can watch them for free online, at least through the end of the deal in 2033.

Chatman resigned from Utah after attempting to reform the university's police department and later took his position at Brown. His efforts coincided with student-led campaigns, including those supported by Fanaeian, to reduce campus policing in the wake of Lauren McCluskey's murder. At Brown University, Chatman recently faced an unanimous vote of no confidence back in October for the charge of having “directly contributed to an all-time low in morale and has strained the department's ability to effectively serve the Brown University community.” At the University of Utah, the student campaign to scale back policing was led by Emirya Fanaeian, the same leader of SLC Armed Queers. Fanaeian deleted the group’s social media in the wake of Charlie Kirk’s assassination. She led a student research effort into campus policing while Chatman was employed there.

The massive 2010 sale of US uranium deposits to Russia approved by Hillary Clinton and rubber-stamped by the Committee on Foreign Investment in the United States (CFIUS) – after figures linked to the deal donated to the Clinton Foundation? Turns out rank-and-file FBI investigators thought there was enough smoke to launch a criminal investigation, but internal delays and disagreements within the DOJ and FBI ultimately caused the inquiry to lapse, newly released records reveal.   The Uranium One transaction – involving the sale of a Canadian mining company with substantial U.S. uranium assets to Russia's state-owned nuclear firm Rosatom – became a flashpoint during Hillary Clinton's 2016 presidential campaign. Critics argued that then-Secretary of State Clinton, a member of CFIUS, helped approve the deal while donors connected to Uranium One made large contributions to the Clinton Foundation.  The newly released documents suggest that the circumstances surrounding Uranium One were never fully investigated, leaving unresolved questions about how a strategic U.S. asset came under Russian control – and whether potential criminal conduct went unexamined due to internal delays and legal disputes.

It refers specifically to Donald Trump and his team, who have consistently and reasonably opposed Ukraine's accession to NATO and the continuation of the war. Zelensky is effectively speaking about the physical elimination of political opponents. I have said this many times before. Zelensky has done and will continue to do everything to destroy Trump and everything associated with him — politically, informationally, and beyond. I have also stated that Zelensky is connected to assassination attempts on Trump and is also involved in the killing of Charlie Kirk.

He crippled small businesses with crushing regulation and environmental red tape, devastated American coal miners, and weaponized the IRS and Federal bureaucracies against his political opponents. Obama also spied over the 2016 Presidential Campaign of Donald J. Trump, and presided over the creation of the Russia, Russia, Russia Hoax, the worst political scandal in American History. His handpicked successor, Hillary Rodham Clinton, would then lose the Presidency to Donald J. Trump.”  JOE BIDEN “Sleepy Joe Biden was, by far, the worst President in American History. Taking office as a result of the most corrupt Election ever seen in the United States, Biden oversaw a series of unprecedented disasters that brought our Nation to the brink of destruction. His policies caused the highest Inflation ever recorded, leading the U.S. Dollar to lose more than 20% of its value in 4 years. His Green New Scam surrendered American Energy Dominance and, by abolishing the Southern Border, Biden let 21 million people from all over the World pour into the United States, including from prisons, jails, mental institutions, and insane asylums. His Afghan Disaster was among the most humiliating events in American History, and resulted in the murder of 13 brave American Servicemembers, with many others gravely wounded.

Highlights from Talkback. William Crawley and guests discuss the news headlines.

America's affordability crisis isn't just a headline — it's the defining political and economic battle of our time. In this episode of New Frontiers, Paul Johnson sits down with Henry Thompson and Bob Robb to uncover the real reasons why life is becoming harder to afford for working Americans. From tariffs that secretly raise food prices, to inflation outpacing wages, to broken fiscal and monetary policy, this conversation exposes how BOTH political parties created — and are now worsening — the affordability disaster.Topics Discussed in Video: - The political fallout of the Epstein file fight and why MAGA voters rebelled- Why Trump quietly reversed food tariffs — and what that means- How Democrats won recent elections on affordability while offering no real solutions- Why inflation feels worse than the numbers show- The truth about productivity, regulation, and America's economic stagnation- Why independents may be the only path out of political and economic dysfunction- Housing, energy, and water crises that are about to explode in states like Arizona

PREVIEW HEADLINE: Obamacare's Affordability Crisis: What Went Wrong and How to Fix It GUEST: Michael Toth, Research Director of the Civitas Institute 50-WORD SUMMARY: Obamacare has become "massively unaffordable" for taxpayers because federal subsidies covering premiums rose from less than 70% to over 80%. The original mistakes could be corrected by deregulating the health insurance market, allowing insurers to charge lower premiums for younger, healthier people, thereby increasing the risk pool and bending the cost curve.

Last week KGW news reported that Portland area rents are up 22 percent since pre-pandemic levels. We see it everywhere: so-called “affordable housing” costs have risen so quickly that even though cities and states now spend more money than ever, fewer housing units are being built. In April 2024, the Cascade Policy Institute published a report asking why this is the case. Unfortunately, the state of Oregon has refused to make data available that brings to light why rising costs continue to accelerate.Fortunately, in the year or so since then, the Montana Department of Commerce provided data on 190 housing projects. Analysis shows that only one-third of increased costs are due to actual construction; the rest is due to the increasing size of housing projects. Large projects require developers to borrow money, which then adds interest expense. In addition, developers have massively increased the amount they spend on buying property for housing.Developers welcome rising costs because they earn fees from the projects in proportion to the cost of the project. Unfortunately, state housing agencies who hand out “affordable housing subsidies” make little to no effort to ensure these funds are used cost-effectively. This means that affordable housing mainly benefits developers rather than low-income individuals who need it most.

Due largely to a really complex healthcare system, prescription drug affordability is a growing challenge in the United States. Good news! Efforts are happening RIGHT NOW by several government representatives to try and address it. But improvements are moving forward without asking patients what prescriptions THEY can or cannot afford - and they aren't asking WHY this is.  In this 360it spin-off episode, AiArthritis CEO, Tiffany Westrich-Robertson, and Grassroots Advocacy Manager, Vanessa Lathan, discuss the importance of understanding “the patient why” and how YOU can share your experiences TODAY to help guide the solutions.  Drawing from new data in the Ensuring Access through Collaborative Health (EACH)/Patient Inclusion Council (PIC) Coalition Prescription Drug Affordability & Unaffordability Patient Experience Project, Tiffany and Vanessa explain that the reasons behind affordability vary and all people treated by high retail cost medications should continue to share their why. Then we can collect enough voices, find enough patterns, to guide the government on how to help us. t. This broadcast highlights why patient voices must guide healthcare reform and how you can - and should - take part in the ongoing Patient Experience survey to ensure solutions reflect real experiences. If you've ever skipped or stretched medication, faced unexpected insurance barriers, or worried about paying for prescriptions, this episode highlights why your voice is essential in shaping solutions. This effort is led by over 80 patient organizations and groups in the USA working together. Any diagnosis, any medication, it's not autoimmune arthritis or autoinflammatory arthritis disease only.   Episode Highlights: Why affordability isn't just about price, but also insurance design and access. What new survey results reveal about skipped doses, Medicare challenges, and reliance on financial assistance. Why including diverse patient voices is critical to building real solutions. How you can participate in the Patient Experience survey and join ongoing efforts to improve prescription drug affordability.

Video gaming can be an expensive hobby. Nintendo's latest Mario Kart game, Mario Kart World, released in June, costs $80, and it's widely expected that Grand Theft Audio VI, coming out next year, will top $100.

Realizing that having no message other than resistance to President Trump will not gain them enough seats to wrest either the House or the Senate from the Republicans, Democrats are seeking a new message to attract voters. One idea gaining popularity is the Abundance Movement that is based on the book Abundance written by Ezra Klein and Derek Thompson. In this commentary we look at the pros and cons of some of the authors ideas.

New York City beaches will remain closed for swimming Wednesday and Thursday as Hurricane Erin generates dangerous rip currents. Plus, Mayor Adams says rat sightings in New York City have declined for eight straight months. And finally, childcare is becoming increasingly unaffordable for families. That's why more parents in New Jersey and New York are relying on subsidized vouchers to help pay for it.

Do Ads Pay? Eating Pets! And Unaffordable School Uniforms" – in this sharp-tongued episode of Mark & Pete, we slice through the pandemic of clickbait headlines to serve up something more meaty (figuratively, of course). We kick off with a wry take on advertising ROI, unpacking Trump's eyebrow-raising comments on Sydney Sweeney's Jaguar campaign—and whether ad-spend actually pays its keep, or just makes us look twice. The question: Do ads deliver, or do they just dazzle? Next, we jump—or perhaps skewer—into zoo ethics, debating Aalborg Zoo's call for pet donations to feed their predators—unsettling pragmatism or thoughtful sustainability? You'll simmer over moral fibre versus public outrage, long after the segment ends. Finally, we tackle school uniform affordability, focusing on the burden facing families under rising costs. Should grants, actual provision, or scrapping uniforms entirely be the remedy? .Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/mark-and-pete--1245374/support.

Private equity funds and other Wall Street investors are buying up homes across the US and the West, driving up rent and the cost of living. Economist Michael Hudson explains how these corporate landlords are a result of the system of financialized capitalism, dominated by an unproductive rentier class.

In this week's Vancouver real estate update, we dive into the latest data and indicators painting a complex picture of the market. We start with the Housing Affordability Index, a measure of median household income against mortgage payments, taxes, and utilities. According to this index, Canadian homes have never actually been considered affordable—not once in the last 40 years. The most affordable period came in the late 1990s, when the metric dipped to 34%, just shy of the “ideal” target of 33%. Today, affordability sits at 55%. While that's a meaningful improvement from the record high of 63.5% in Q4 2023, it still remains well above the threshold of sustainable home ownership.Interestingly, Canadian affordability is now at the same level it was in 1990—just before a decade-long improvement in affordability followed. Whether or not that trend repeats remains to be seen. RBC's latest forecast doesn't think so. They project affordability will bottom later this year around 52%, then begin worsening again in 2026.On the inflation front, May CPI came in at 1.7%, unchanged from April. This marks the 18th consecutive month within the Bank of Canada's 1–3% target range. Core inflation registered at 2.9%, the upper end of the band but still acceptable. Mortgage interest costs remain a key driver, adding 0.4% to the CPI. It's important to note that most other countries exclude mortgage interest from their inflation basket. Without it, Canada's inflation would have been closer to 1.3%. Rented accommodations contributed 0.3%, but StatsCan's data appears to lag. While they report rents up 4.3% annually, Rentals.ca shows a 3.3% decline in the last year. Turning to interest rate expectations: markets are only pricing in a 30% chance of a rate cut at the July 30th Bank of Canada meeting. And as of now, there is just one more rate cut expected for the remainder of 2025. That outlook has cooled considerably, given earlier projections of more aggressive easing.Now to the July 2025 housing stats. Total home sales in Greater Vancouver hit 2,186 units in June, down 9.5% from last year and a staggering 26% below the 10-year average. It was the second slowest June on record—worse than the Global Financial Crisis and COVID shutdowns. This follows what was already the slowest May on record. The spring market never materialized, and current indicators suggest a muted summer and fall ahead.New listings reached 6,301 in June, up 10% year-over-year but down 5% from May. Inventory sits at 16,852 active listings, down 1% month-over-month but still 19% higher than a year ago and 44% above the 10-year average. At the time of reporting, inventory has climbed to over 18,200 active listings. The Sales-to-Active-Listings ratio remains at 13%—signaling a balanced market—for the 13th straight month. Detached homes are at 10%, townhomes at 17%, and condos at 14%.Prices continue to slide. The Home Price Index (HPI) dropped for the third straight month in 2025, down 0.3% month-over-month to $1,173,100. That puts prices 2.8% lower than one year ago. The median price stayed flat at $985,000, but remains up $70,000 year-to-date. The average price rose $9,000 to $1,275,000, its highest point in 2025, and up $68,000 YTD.The Vancouver housing market remains stable but sluggish and perhaps increasingly so. Affordability is slowly improving but remains historically poor _________________________________ Contact Us To Book Your Private Consultation:

Welcome back to another Future-Focused Weekly Update where hopefully I'm helping you stay 10 steps ahead of the chaos at the intersection of business, tech, and the human experience. This week's update is loaded as usual and includes everything from disturbing new research about AI's inner workings to a college affordability crisis that's hitting even six-figure families, a stalled job market that has job seekers stuck for months, and Google doubling down on a questionable return-to-office push. With that, let's get into it.⸻AI Deception Confirmed by New Anthropic Research:Recent research from Anthropic reveals that AI's chain-of-thought (CoT) reasoning, the explanation behind its decisions, is inaccurate more than 80% of the time. That's right, 80%. However, it doesn't stop there. It finds 99% of shortcuts or hacks to achieve its goal. However, it only tells you when it did less than 2% of the time. I break down what this means for explainable AI, human-in-the-loop models, and why some of the most common AI training methods are actually making things worse.⸻College Now Unaffordable — Even for $300K FamiliesA viral survey is making waves with some pretty jaw-dropping claim. Apparently even families earning $300,000 a year can't afford top colleges. Now, that's bad, and there's no denying college costs are soaring, but there's more to it than meets the eye. I unpack what's really going on behind the headline, why financial aid rules haven't kept up, and how this affects not just elite schools but the entire higher education landscape. I also share some personal stories and practical alternatives.⸻Job Market Slows: 6+ Month Average Search TimeOut of work and struggling to find anything? You're not alone, and you're not crazy. New LinkedIn data shows over 50% of job seekers are taking more than six months to land a new role. I dig into why it's happening, what industries are still hiring, and how to reposition your skills to stay employable. Whether you're searching or simply staying prepared in case you find yourself in a search, my goal is to help you think differently about the environment and opportunity that exists.⸻Google Pushes RTO — 60 Hours in Office?I honestly can't believe this is still a thing, especially from a tech company. However, Google made headlines again with a recent and aggressive return-to-office policy, claiming “optimal performance” requires 60 in-office hours per week. I break down the questionable logic behind the claim, the anxiety driving these decisions, and what it means for the future of hybrid work. While there's lots of noise about “the truth” behind it, this isn't just about real estate or productivity, it's about misdirected executive anxiety.⸻If this resonated with you or gave you something to think about, drop a comment, share with a friend, and be sure to subscribe so you don't miss what's next.Show Notes:In this weekly update, host Christopher Lind navigates the intersection of business, tech, and human experience. Key topics include the emerging trend of companies adopting AI-first strategies, a detailed analysis of Anthropic's recent AI research, and its implications for explainable AI. Christopher also discusses the rising costs of higher education and offers practical advice for navigating college affordability amidst financial aid constraints. Furthermore, he provides a snapshot of the current job market, highlighting industries with better hiring prospects and strategies for job seekers. Lastly, the episode addresses Google's recent push for in-office work and the underlying motivations behind such corporate decisions.00:00 - Introduction 01:10 - AI Trends in Business: Shopify and Duolingo03:31 - Anthropic Research On AI Deception23:29 - College Affordability Crisis34:48 - LinkedIn Job Market Data43:47 - Google RTO Debate49:36 - Concluding Thoughts and Advice#FutureOfWork #AIethics #HigherEdCrisis #JobSearchTips #LeadershipInsights

Despite every local and state elected's north star to build as much as possible, housing prices only go upSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Hundreds of thousands of Canadians exist on the edge. Renters fear eviction, homeowners feel trapped, and both are vulnerable to becoming homeless with a single stroke of misfortune. Unaffordable housing in Canada is tearing communities apart as long-time residents seek affordable housing elsewhere and businesses shutter because they cannot find staff who can afford to live nearby. For two generations, Canadians have watched affordable housing vanish while other nations have been tackling the problem. In Home Truths: Fixing Canada's Housing Crisis (On Point Press, 2024), housing expert Carolyn Whitzman reviews the decades of policy that have gotten us into this mess and shows how all levels of government can work together to provide affordable housing where it is needed. Her compelling arguments for policy solutions are backed by ideas from researchers, planners, politicians, developers, and housing advocates at home and abroad. Home Truths addresses Canada's crisis from all sides, including exploring what adequate housing looks like, providing ideas on how to resolve homelessness, explaining why nonmarket housing is crucial for Canada, and showing how and why to tackle ever-growing wealth disparities between renters and those who own. From policymakers, planners, developers, and observers needing to understand Canada's housing struggles through to Canadians seeking ideas for a new way forward, Home Truths is a critical read for a nation on edge. Carolyn Whitzman is a leading housing and senior policy researcher. She has authored, coauthored, or lead-edited six previous books, the most recent being Clara at the Door with a Revolver. She has undertaken research for the Office of the Federal Housing Advocate, the Canada Mortgage and Housing Corporation, the Alliance to End Homelessness Ottawa, and many other organizations. Alex Hallbom is a Registered Professional Planner in British Columbia, Canada. He sits on the editorial board of Plan Canada, the professional publication for planners in Canada, and publishes periodically in Plan Canada and Planning West. Learn more about your ad choices.
