https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Nff_2n5fqWE A message by Joti Brar, Chair of the Communist Party of Great Britain (Marxist-Leninist) on the idea of uniting the supposed 'left'. There is a fundamental distinction between different groups who call themselves 'left'. On the one hand, there are leftists who are only nominally 'left' but ultimately right in form as the results of their actions are contradictory to what they preach, and on the other hand there are leftists who are both left in name and in form: Marxist-Leninists. There can of course be no unity with incorrect stances and correct stances just as there can be no unity between purveyors of the market, and those who call for its abolishment. Marxist-Leninists do not seek to unite the so called 'left'; they seek to educate, organise, and unite the working class for its liberation. This speech was given at ResistFest in Nottingham, October 2021, where Joti Brar was then speaking as deputy leader of the Workers Party of Britain. She is now the vice-chair of the CPGB-ML.

What if the peace you keep chasing is already offered to you—today? We complete Hebrews chapter 3 and discover why the promise of rest is not a distant dream but a present invitation. By lifting up Jesus as fully God and fully human, we anchor rest where it belongs: in a Savior who finished the work and frees us from living like it's all on our shoulders.We revisit Israel's wilderness story—spies, fear, and forty years of wandering—to show how unbelief looks reasonable while quietly draining our joy. The issue wasn't a lack of evidence; it was a heart that made the giants bigger than God's word. Hebrews names this honestly: unbelief is disobedience. Not to condemn, but to explain why many churchgoers still feel tired, anxious, and stuck in works. When we treat outcomes, reputation, and self-justification as our job, rest evaporates. When we trust Christ's finished work, assurance returns and obedience becomes light.Scripture offers concrete wisdom for finances, marriage, parenting, work, and church life. Uniting that word with faith changes rhythms: generosity over grasping, reconciliation over resentment, limits over hustle, worship over worry. We share personal moments of wandering and renewal, highlighting how community, Scripture, and small groups helped us move from striving to steady. The simple prayer—“I believe; help my unbelief”—becomes a daily posture that opens the door to peace.The promise remains open. Will you enter it? If this conversation helps you breathe a little easier, follow the show, share it with a friend who needs rest, and leave a review so others can find it too. Your story might be the spark that helps someone else step into God's rest today.Support the showThank you for listening!!

Swanson's books include War Is A Lie and When the World Outlawed War  War adversely impacts all living things on the planet. W. Bush lied to Congress, the UN, Americans and the world to fabricate flimsy bogus evidence to illegally invade Iraq. Many legal scholars consider Bush and Cheney to be war criminals. Corporate media were complicit in the war propaganda machine. The UN General Assembly should adopt Uniting for Peace to override a US or Russian veto in the Security Council.   The Monroe Doctrine is a unilateral declaration by the US to control South America, keep Europeans out and spawn gunboat diplomacy that does not have the force of law. The destruction of fishing boats in the Caribbean is an illegal act that borders on war crimes.

Season 5, EPISODE 263 Common Ground Coalition Seeks To Preserve America's Food Security By Uniting Livestock Producers   Agriculture is not optional. America's food chain is only as strong as our family farms and ranches. Our livestock industry is better together and must unify with one voice. As dedicated stakeholders in the livestock industry, we call upon our fellow livestock producers and all of agriculture to join us and stand united. The time has come to prove that our industry can and will align to drive meaningful and lasting change, safeguarding the future of America's agricultural sector, rural communities and our nation's food independence. We need your help in giving America's livestock industry a common voice. The 5 Key Components Of The Common Ground Coalition 1. Achieve and Maintain Ag-Friendly Tax Policy Extend the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act provisions that help agriculture beyond 2025, including: Preservation of federal transfer tax lifetime exemption amounts, indexed for inflation, and Retention of step-up in basis under § 1014, and Return to 100% bonus depreciation under § 168, and Continued expanded application of § 179, and Maintenance of the § 199A qualified business income deduction. Increase the aggregate limit allowed under § 2032A to $30 million, indexed for inflation. 2. Make Risk Management Tools More Effective Increase the Livestock Risk Protection subsidy level, and Allow Livestock Risk Protection coverage to start the day price risk is assumed, and Create or improve mechanisms for industry input and oversight of risk management tools that will make them more attractive to producers. 3. Improve Access To Labor Remove the seasonality component from H-2 programs, and Create an optimized and efficient process for workers in good standing to return to the same employer year after year, and Redefine “agricultural employer” to expand its scope for purposes of H-2A programs to include more employers essential to agricultural production in the United States. 4. Increase Flexibility For Livestock Haulers Exempt livestock haulers from Hours-of-Service rules, and Permanently exempt livestock haulers from the Electronic Logging Device mandate, and Support the state and federal adoption of increased load capacity limits. 5. Create Support For Young & Emerging Livestock Producers Reform USDA programs to raise limits on guaranteed loan programs, streamline the lending process, and expand eligibility criteria. Create tax credits or incentives for leasing or selling land to, and providing capital to, younger or emerging livestock producers, including elimination of capital gains, reduced financing costs, and access to loans. Create front-loaded tax relief for buyers purchasing land for use in livestock production. Establish programs and educational programming to cultivate interest in young people to pursue careers in livestock production. Incentivize livestock producers and others, including those in academia, business, and government, to mentor young or emerging livestock producers and support new entrants into the industry. Develop technologies targeted at increasing efficiency in livestock production.

Guest Dr. Karen Sobel-Lojeski is a pioneer in understanding how technology shapes human connection at work and beyond. She created the award-winning framework, Virtual Distance, a proven and practical set of predictive analytics that target problems and predictably strengthen trust, collaboration, and productivity across remote, hybrid, and in-person teams. As the founder of Virtual Distance International, she has advised Fortune 500 companies, government agencies, and institutions, including Coca-Cola, the US Navy, DARPA, and the World Economic Forum. A trusted advisor, former professor and researcher with affiliations at Princeton's Institute for Advanced Study, Wharton, and the Stockholm School of Economics, she is the author of Uniting the Virtual Workforce, Leading the Virtual Workforce, and The Power of Virtual Distance. Her insights have been featured in Harvard Business Review, The New York Times, Forbes, The Wall Street Journal, NPR, and other prominent publications. She is a sought-after speaker, known for energizing audiences worldwide. She holds degrees in Computer Science and Applied Mathematics from SUNY Albany and a Ph.D. from Stevens Institute of Technology, where her dissertation, Virtual Distance: A New Model for the Study of Virtual Work, won the Best Dissertation of the Year Award. Summary In this follow-up conversation, Dr. Karen Sobel-Lojeski—creator of the concept of "virtual distance"—discusses how technology continues to shape, and often erode, human connection, particularly in education. She defines virtual distance as the measurable sense of separation people feel despite being physically close, a phenomenon driven by technology-mediated communication. The model comprises three layers: physical distance, which has the least impact on outcomes; operational distance, representing the day-to-day barriers to smooth communication; and affinity distance, the emotional and relational disconnect that most strongly undermines trust, learning, and collaboration. Dr. K and Jeff revisit ideas they first discussed during the COVID-19 pandemic, when schools shifted to remote learning. While educators solved many operational challenges, they largely ignored the emotional and social costs—students' inability to connect, play, and learn together. Dr. K likens this to Isaac Asimov's story "The Fun They Had," a cautionary tale about robotic education devoid of joy and connection. The discussion shifts to current policies that restrict cell phone use in schools. Dr. K argues these measures, while well-intentioned, misidentify the real problem. Locking up phones doesn't undo decades of cultural conditioning around technology. Students' sense of self and connection has already been rewired; removing the device without addressing underlying social and emotional needs merely produces deprivation, not engagement. She urges educators to prioritize relationships, empathy, and social learning—what she calls "reconnecting to our direct experience of being human." AI, she warns, intensifies virtual distance by outsourcing creativity and meaning-making. Ultimately, she calls for a cultural and educational rebalancing that centers human connection in an increasingly digital world. The Essential Point Technological fixes—whether online learning, AI, or banning cell phones—cannot mend what they helped fray: our capacity for human connection. True learning and creativity depend on empathy, direct experience, and social bonds.

A headline on a recent news article caught my eye, for it declared, “Americans Disagree on Everything.”I said to myself: “I disagree with that!”Indeed, the untold story of today's America is the good news that We the People fundamentally agree on more than what supposedly separates us. It is true that our daily media feed does relentlessly push political negativity and discord, and it's true that hyper-partisan politicians grab attention by hammering their narrow views into swords of hatred. But that's them, not the greater us.Even hot-button issues which dominate the Internet and talk-shows are actually not all that divisive for the majority of us. For example, nearly 90 percent of Americans (including two-thirds of Republicans) oppose the right-wing attempt to whitewash our nation's history by restricting teachers, museums etc. from addressing such realities as slavery.More significantly, consider the real needs of ordinary workaday families. Basics like living wages, protecting Social Security, busting-up monopolies, cleaning up pollution, providing affordable housing, funding our parks and libraries, stopping price gouging. Overwhelmingly, Americans in red, blue, and purple areas agree on what government ought to be doing – and disagrees with what it is doing. But the plutocratic moneyed elites that now fund and perpetuate Americas corrupt and dysfunctional government profit by promoting hatreds to pit us against each other, praying that all of us don't focus on them.Don't succumb to their self-serving lies, but seek ways to unite in what we Americans do agree on – specifically our historic commitment to the democratic values of economic fairness, social justice, and equal treatment for all.

There are many ways to frame conversations around cyber security. They can take on many aspects of security, ranging across the technical to the human. With the press towards platform consolidation, it's critical to reconsider the interaction between the human and technical elements and research director Scott Crawford and Javvad Malik, CISO advisor at KnowBe4, join host Eric Hanselman to dig into this important interplay. It's all too easy to fall into security practices that focus on technical requirements and don't account for the friction that is created for the people who use them. It's also easy to drop into a mindset that better security is just a matter of user education. Effective security requires thinking about user experience, as well as technical controls. Authentication is one of the most frequently experienced security interactions and also one where a technical focus can have the highest impact on the people using. Authentication happens often and is also a key element in securing IT environments. The push to multifactor authentication, for example, is an important step in security enforcement and can require a significant change in how people interact with the systems that support their daily lives. A wholistic approach to security can help teams move beyond the frustrating cycle of user training and shift to collaborative security implementations.

This Day in Legal History: PATRIOT Act IntroducedOn October 23, 2001, just six weeks after the September 11 terrorist attacks, the United States House of Representatives introduced H.R. 3162, the bill that would become the USA PATRIOT Act. Officially titled the “Uniting and Strengthening America by Providing Appropriate Tools Required to Intercept and Obstruct Terrorism Act,” the legislation represented one of the most significant expansions of domestic surveillance and law enforcement powers in modern U.S. history. The bill was drafted rapidly, largely by the Department of Justice under Attorney General John Ashcroft, and was introduced with bipartisan support.Key provisions of the act included expanded authority for wiretaps, the ability to access business and personal records through National Security Letters, and increased surveillance of internet and email communications. Section 215, in particular, allowed the government to obtain “any tangible things” relevant to a terrorism investigation, a phrase later scrutinized for its vagueness. Civil liberties organizations quickly raised concerns about the law's impact on privacy, due process, and the Fourth Amendment's protection against unreasonable searches.Despite these objections, the bill moved swiftly through Congress. The House passed it on October 24, and the Senate followed on October 25. President George W. Bush signed it into law on October 26, 2001. In the years that followed, the PATRIOT Act would become a focal point in debates over national security versus individual rights, particularly as revelations of mass surveillance by the NSA surfaced in the 2010s.Some provisions were later challenged in court, amended by Congress, or allowed to expire. Nevertheless, the PATRIOT Act reshaped the legal framework for counterterrorism in the U.S., leaving a legacy still felt in debates over surveillance, transparency, and executive power today.Several major lobbying firms in Washington, D.C., posted record or near-record revenues in the third quarter of 2025, driven by policy shifts under President Donald Trump and rising client demand for regulatory guidance. Ballard Partners led the surge, reporting a 400% year-over-year increase and nearly $25 million in lobbying revenue. Other top performers included BGR Group ($19.1 million), Brownstein Hyatt Farber Schreck ($18.9 million), Holland & Knight ($13.9 million), and Hogan Lovells ($4.4 million), each claiming their best quarter yet.The increase in lobbying activity was largely fueled by the Trump administration's aggressive moves on tariffs, trade, and the implementation of a sweeping tax-and-spending bill signed in July. Lobbyists noted that even during the early October government shutdown, regulatory deadlines such as public comment periods on tariffs kept work moving. Akin Gump reported $16.3 million, its best third quarter ever, and K&L Gates earned $5.4 million.Overall lobbying expenditures have continued to climb, with companies spending over $2.53 billion by late July 2025. Industries like pharmaceuticals, health products, and tech accounted for a significant share of that spending, reflecting ongoing regulatory and legislative uncertainty.Lobbying firms record 3rd quarter gains amid Trump policy shifts | ReutersPaul Ingrassia, nominated by President Donald Trump to lead the U.S. Office of Special Counsel, withdrew from consideration after losing Republican support in the Senate. He announced his withdrawal ahead of a scheduled confirmation hearing, citing an insufficient number of GOP votes. The Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs Committee had already postponed a prior hearing in August amid growing concerns.Senate Republicans distanced themselves from Ingrassia after Politico published alleged chat messages from him. His connections to controversial figures — including his legal work for Andrew Tate and attendance at a rally for White nationalist Nick Fuentes — drew additional scrutiny. Senator Thom Tillis labeled him “unfit to serve,” and Majority Leader John Thune confirmed the nomination was unlikely to move forward.The Office of Special Counsel plays a crucial role in enforcing civil service protections, particularly amid Trump's push to reshape the federal workforce. It also oversees Hatch Act compliance, which limits political activity by federal employees. With the Merit Systems Protection Board now restored, a new nominee will be needed to confront upcoming legal battles over career employee protections.Trump's Special Counsel Nominee Withdraws After GOP BlowbackIn Delaware court, tensions escalated between bidders and creditors over who should win control of Citgo Petroleum's parent company, PDV Holding, as part of a court-ordered auction aimed at compensating creditors tied to Venezuela's defaults and expropriations. The case, which has dragged on for eight years, now faces a decisive moment after three bidding rounds.A $5.9 billion offer from Amber Energy, affiliated with Elliott Investment Management, has been recommended by the court-appointed auction officer. However, Citgo's legal team and Venezuelan representatives argue the offer is too low, especially compared to a $7.9 billion bid from a Gold Reserve subsidiary. They also allege flaws in the auction process itself.Amber's bid includes a key side deal to pay $2.1 billion to holders of a disputed Venezuelan bond, making timing crucial since the agreement expires in early December. Gold Reserve, on the other hand, seeks to distribute more of the proceeds among a wider group of creditors, raising concerns over whether bondholders should benefit at all given unresolved legal questions about the bond's validity.Judge Leonard Stark also heard motions from Venezuela and Gold Reserve to disqualify him, court officer Robert Pincus, and two advisory firms over alleged conflicts of interest. The U.S. Treasury Department's approval is still required to finalize the auction, and both the Maduro government and Venezuela's opposition oppose the sale.Bidders, creditors battle in US court over who should win Citgo auction | Reuters This is a public episode.

Alex Tinsley is the Director of North America Field Marketing at SUSE, a global leader in open-source enterprise software solutions. Under his marketing leadership, SUSE has driven significant revenue growth and deepened collaboration between sales and marketing teams, bolstering their position in the enterprise software market. Alex's career spans roles in both software vendors and resellers, and he is known for championing innovative segmentation strategies and uniting cross-functional teams to accelerate business outcomes. In this episode… Bridging the divide between sales and marketing remains one of the toughest challenges in B2B organizations. Too often, these two departments operate in silos — each chasing different goals, using different metrics, and misunderstanding what truly drives the other. But what if aligning them could unlock faster revenue growth, deeper trust, and a more predictable sales pipeline? According to Alex Tinsley, a marketing leader with deep experience across sales, operations, and field marketing, the key lies in empathy and shared understanding. He highlights that misalignment often stems from false assumptions: sales thinking marketing just plans events, and marketing assuming sales ignores their leads. Alex emphasizes that when both teams take the time to learn each other's motivations and constraints, they realize they're chasing the same outcome: revenue. In this episode of the Revenue Engine Podcast, host Alex Gluz speaks with Alex Tinsley, Director of North America Field Marketing at SUSE, to discuss how uniting sales and marketing can supercharge B2B revenue. They explore the impact of removing internal silos, improving the sales-to-marketing handoff, and aligning goals around shared outcomes. Alex also shares how empathy, structure, and data transparency build trust that drives long-term growth.

The Rich Zeoli Show- Hour 1: 3:05pm- Last week, conservative political commentator Charlie Kirk was tragically murdered while speaking at a Turning Point USA event on Utah Valley University campus. In the aftermath, some on the far-left abhorrently defended the radicalized assassin's actions—simply because they didn't agree with Kirk's political opinions. 3:10pm- On Monday, Vice President JD Vance hosted The Charlie Kirk Show from the White House, explaining that political violence “is not a both sides problem” right now. He continued: “24% of self-described very liberals believe it is acceptable to be happy about the death of a political opponent, while only 3% of self-described very conservatives agree. 3% is too many, of course. Another truth is that 26% of young liberals believe political violence is sometimes justified. And only 7% of young conservatives say the same…The data is clear.
