In this episode of John Solomon Reports, we analyze the aftermath of President Trump's State of the Union address, which has set the stage for the 2026 election debate. John Solomon highlights a pivotal moment from the speech, where a clear divide emerged between those who prioritize American citizens and those who support illegal immigration, marking a significant narrative for the upcoming elections.We delve into the response from the Democrats, particularly focusing on Virginia Governor Abigail Spanberger's speech, which criticized Trump without offering substantive solutions to the pressing issues facing Americans. Solomon contrasts this with Trump's proposals, including innovative ideas for energy savings and retirement subsidies, showcasing a stark difference in leadership vision.In a major development, Solomon reveals that the FBI has confirmed the seizure of phone records from future director Cash Patel and White House Chief of Staff Susie Wiles, raising concerns about government surveillance and the implications for privacy rights.Additionally, we uncover significant details from the internal communications of Fulton County District Attorney Feeney Willis, revealing her collaboration with the Biden administration and the January 6th committee to orchestrate a coordinated legal assault against Trump. This unprecedented move raises serious questions about executive privilege and the integrity of future presidencies.Joining us today is former Secretary of Homeland Security Chad Wolfe, who shares his insights on Trump's proposals and the implications for national security. We also have an engaging discussion with Congressman Mike Rulli from Ohio, who addresses tariffs and the weaponization of government. Finally, we meet Keith Gross, a new candidate for Congress, who shares his vision and goals.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

On Tuesday night, President Donald Trump delivered the first State of the Union address of his second term.It comes at a pivotal moment in Trump's presidency. Approval of his performance – and policies – have hit new lows among the American people.Add to that last week's Supreme Court ruling that overturned the administration's tariffs — a centerpiece of Trump's agenda — and all of a sudden, the pressure was on Trump to reset the narrative of his presidency. Especially in the face of looming fears that Democrats could take back the House in the midterm elections.So, what did we hear from the presideFind more of our programs online.

Most cruisers walk into their cabin, throw their bags on the bed, and start unpacking. Big mistake. After more than 125 cruises, I've learnt – sometimes the hard way – that there are a handful of vital checks you should always do before you unpack a single item. In this video I take you inside a real cruise cabin and show you exactly what I personally check the moment I arrive on board. I also explain why it's absolutely critical to do these checks on embarkation day, when problems are far easier to fix, cabins are still moving around, and engineers are on full standby. Leave it until later in the cruise and you could be stuck with issues that never get resolved. If you want your next cruise to start smoothly – without nasty surprises, wasted time at Guest Services, or sleepless nights – these are the 10 cabin checks every cruiser must do before unpacking.

In this episode Garth interviewed Krisstal Clayton from the University of North Texas in Denton, TX.  Krisstal shares how heavy workloads, commuting, work, and caregiving contribute to students' AI use and argues for explicitly teaching AI literacy, its limits, and responsible use. She describes building connection and engagement in a 210-student lecture hall through weekly team activities, team exams, and gamified, real-world assignments (including an ultra-processed "Texas State Fair food" concept-mapping activity). She explains her approach to required reading, attendance-based course design, and Vantage quizzes to track learning and spot irregularities. She also discusses becoming first author on a new edition of an Intro Psych textbook, what pedagogical features they kept ("What's Your Prediction?" and applied examples), and updates she "went hard" on, including a methods-focused chapter, mindfulness and wellness content, and topics driven by student needs (sleep, social media/mental health, vaping, neurodiversity).

On this week's Unpacking Europe podcast, the CER's deputy director Ian Bond sat down with Andy Hunder, president of the American Chamber of Commerce in Ukraine, and Victoria Vdovychenko, the joint leader of the Future of Ukraine program at Cambridge University's Centre for Geopolitics, to take stock of the situation on the fourth anniversary of the start of Russia's full-scale invasion of Ukraine. They discussed how Ukraine is managing to hold out during the brutal winter, what the military and economic situation is, and what Ukraine's future prospects are.

Slowly but surely – and just in time for the State of the Union – the full picture of the Trump Administration's Most-Favoured Nations drug pricing policy is coming into focus. At the end of last year, CMS published the draft guidance for its GLOBE and GUARD pricing models, which establish MFN pricing in Medicare Part B and Part D, respectively. And earlier this month TrumpRx – the government's promised patient-facing discount portal – finally went live. On today's podcast, Jonah Comstock is joined by Alice Valder Curran, a partner at Hogan Lovells and a healthcare policy expert, to break down what we know and what we still don't know about each of these developments. Among other things, Valder Curran breaks down how the two CMS pilot programmes will work, what statutory authority CMS is leaning on (and whether that authority is likely to be challenged), and how the industry is responding. Comstock and Valder Curran also discuss TrumpRx and how impactful it's shaping up to be, at least based on what's been revealed so far. And how do those negotiated MFN deals fit in to all this? We can't give you the answers to all your questions about MFN – too much is still up in the air. But this podcast will at least give you an idea of what those open questions are and how they're likely to play out.

This conversation is about busting one of the most common myths in food and retail: that when teams struggle, it's because they don't care or aren't capable. Amy and Donna share what they see again and again while coaching pressured teams — from unspoken rules and quiet toxicity to “too-nice” cultures where nothing difficult ever gets said. They explore why leaders often default to training requests, even when the real issue sits deeper in behaviours, systems, and relationships. You'll hear why surface-level fixes rarely work, how emotional labour and burnout creep in unnoticed, and why projects often feel heavier than they need to. Donna brings a grounded, retail-savvy perspective on what actually helps teams move forward — including the power of asking braver questions and inviting honest feedback. This isn't about blame or quick fixes. It's about understanding how work really feels on the inside — and what shifts when leaders stop patching over problems and start addressing what's unspoken.

Following last week's conversations with ex-Corey's Angels musicians Margot Lane and Jezebel Sweet, director Marcie Hume joins us to talk about making Corey Feldman Vs. The World, the cinéma vérité documentary that starts as a quirky comeback chronicle and turns into an unexpectedly raw portrait of a former child star wrestling with trauma, ego, and the need to be believed.Marcie shares how she first got access to Corey Feldman, what it was like to embed with him, his band Corey's Angels, and their inner circle over years of on‑again, off‑again filming, and how the story kept shifting as his grievances, paranoia, and yearning for redemption played out in real time on and off camera. She also pulls back the curtain on the ethics of documenting someone who is both a survivor and a deeply unreliable narrator, the pressure from all sides—Corey, producers, fans, critics—to shape the narrative, and why she ultimately chose to keep the camera rolling long past the “hero's journey” arc in order to show something messier, more human, and uncomfortably honest about fame, fandom, and the stories we tell about abuse and accountability in Hollywood.Follow Marcie's journey on Instagram @cfvstw, at YouTube.com/@CFVSTW, and be sure to watch the documentary on Apple TV, YouTube, and Google Play.Trigger warning: This episode contains frank discussion of child abuse and sexual exploitation, emotional manipulation, trauma, PTSD, addiction, mental health struggles, and scenes of conflict and controlling behavior.Also…let it be known that:The views and opinions expressed on A Little Bit Culty do not necessarily reflect the official policy or position of the podcast.

In this episode of Your Week with St. Luke's, Pastor Jad explores Gospel of John 3:1–17 through Jesus' nighttime conversation with Nicodemus, inviting listeners to reflect on what it means to be “born from above.” Unpacking the rich symbolism and double meanings in John's Gospel: light and darkness, wind and Spirit, lifting up and exaltation, the episode examines how sincere faith can coexist with honest questions. Centered on John 3:16, Pastor Jad reframes this well-known verse within its broader context, emphasizing God's love for a confused and resistant world and clarifying that Jesus' mission is not condemnation but salvation. This conversation encourages listeners to release control, trust the movement of the Spirit, and embrace the transforming love of God that brings eternal life not just someday, but beginning now.  Join us on the free LivetheRhythm app to reflect on the scripture and find community with others. 

In this episode of One Vision — FinTech Fuse podcast, Theodora Lau and Jas Randhawa discuss the Universal Commerce Protocol (UCP) and implications for agentic commerce. They explore the challenges of chargebacks, the need for regulatory clarity, and the importance of consumer independence in the evolving landscape of e-commerce. While adoption is likely to grow, major risks include consumer manipulation, monopolistic outcomes, and the amount of personal data agents may require (buying, browsing, health, and other patterns), increasing privacy and security concerns. Now is the time to engage with policymakers and advocate for regulatory clarity and for the well-being of consumers. 00:00 Welcome Back to One Vision + Introducing Jas Randhawa (StrategyBRIX)01:10 What Is the Universal Commerce Protocol (UCP)?

Will Consumers Adopt—and at What Cost?42:59 Privacy, Data Control & The Need for Neutral Standards Bodies (Wrap-Up)47:45 Final Thoughts#AI #AgenticCommerce #UCP #Agents #Fintech Hot take:  ”The amount of information this agent now needs to have about me is shocking and it scares me a little bit because you're talking about buying patterns, browsing patterns, sleeping patterns, health pattern. For this agent to be really effective, it just needs to know everything that's in my head, right? It's gonna be very effective, but that's again, a major risk because no one's watching out for the consumer.”Hot take: “ The future of this world is unfortunately not you or me. It's a lot of these younger kids, their ecosystem is a lot different. These products are being designed for them.”More about our guest

We have a lot of ground to cover as we delve into bills that had hearings last week, and bills that will have hearings next week.

On Friday's Mark Levin Show, the Supreme Court majority issued a very messy and problematic decision on tariffs. The fact is the majority agreed on an outcome but not so much on the reasoning for the outcome. It struck tariffs under a single statute, yet created chaos or, actually, left it to the president to decide if and/or how to treat the revenue those tariffs already created for the federal Treasury. The question is not who has the power to tax per se, but a more complicated question about where the separation of powers is. The majority, apparently, chose to duck the question and stick with the indirect tax characterization and focus on a single statute, which is outrageous. Also, Tucker Carlson is an indecent grifter with inexplicable ties to Qatar and an attraction to the Third Reich. He is gravely damaging the Republican Party, the midterm elections, and the Trump administration. Later, Jon Levine of the Washington Free Beacon calls in to explain that NYC Mayor Mamdani is fulfilling his campaign promises by staffing his administration with individuals from radical Islamist and far-left progressive circles, united by a shared hatred of the West and Jews. Mamdani is also pressuring Governor Hochul to impose a wealth tax by threatening massive property tax increases on roughly 3 million homeowners—effectively holding the entire city hostage in a "look what you made me do" tactic.

On Thursday's Mark Levin Show, Bernie Sanders continues to display a perplexing misunderstanding of economics with his recent attacks on billionaires like Elon Musk and Mark Zuckerberg. He claims these wealthy individuals are thwarting a wealth tax measure and insists they should pay their "fair share," ignoring the fact that the top 1% already contribute over 40% of federal income taxes. Instead of fostering an informed dialogue about economic realities, Sanders resorts to Marxist and Socialist rhetoric that vilifies success and oversimplifies the complexities of wealth creation. It's high time we confront this misguided socialist perspective and recognize the vital role that successful entrepreneurs play in driving our economy forward. In addition, Tucker Carlson made a brief stop at Ben Gurion Airport in Israel to film an interview with US Ambassador Mike Huckabee without ever stepping outside the airport. Carlson lied about leaking the fact that Israeli police and staff at the airport was mistreating him, even though there is video footage of Tucker hugging people. Also, at least a dozen Democrats from both the House and Senate will skip President Trump's State of the Union address to attend a rally on the National Mall as an alternative protest against his presidency. Lastly, Rep. Bryan Steil joins the show to discuss how Democrats are trying to find ways to protect illegal aliens from getting deported, and by not passing the SAVE Act, so that illegal aliens can vote. The people need to call our senators to pass the Save Act now! Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices

It's no secret that Russia relies on high salaries and sign-on bonuses to recruit soldiers to fight in Ukraine. Despite staggering battlefield losses, an estimated 30,000 men still enlist every month. But after four years of full-scale war, the cost of finding volunteers is only rising steadily, and the burden is falling on Russia's regions.  Why have hundreds of thousands of men joined the Russian army? How much does it cost to sustain recruitment? And is it only a matter of time before Vladimir Putin will be forced to declare another mobilization? In this episode of The Naked Pravda, deputy editor Eilish Hart explores the big questions behind Russia's recruitment numbers with Dr. Janis Kluge, a researcher at the German Institute for International and Security Affairs (SWP) in Berlin. Time stamps for this episode: (2:14) Where the data comes from: Using federal and regional budgets(6:59) Quotas and pressure: How the top-down recruitment system works(9:03) Why men enlist: Bonuses, debt, and coercion at the margins(11:43) What recruitment really costs(16:50) Bonus shopping: Recruits traveling to the highest-paying regions(21:43) Will Putin mobilize again?

As the new generation of financial infrastructure takes shape, the need for sophisticated tools to inform policy-makers is growing. To encourage innovation and preserve security, it is vital that policy-makers have the capacity to interact with and closely supervise new systems. Sandboxes are a key tool for this process. Carmelle Cadet, chief executive officer and founder of EmTech joins OMFIF to discuss the nuances of how sandboxes work and how they should be constructed.

Bongani Bingwa speaks to Marrianne Merten, Associate Editor at Daily Maverick, about the tough questions emerging from President Cyril Ramaphosa’s 2026 State of the Nation Address. In a sharply argued opinion piece, Merten questions whether the President’s strong rhetoric on crime and the deployment of the South African National Defence Force reflect genuine urgency and political will or whether government is falling into a familiar pattern of bold announcements without meaningful accountability. They unpack opposition criticism, public frustration, and whether the state’s response matches the scale of South Africa’s crime crisis. 702 Breakfast with Bongani Bingwa is broadcast on 702, a Johannesburg based talk radio station.

In this episode of The Clay Edwards Show, host Clay Edwards announces an exciting new weekly segment called "Wild and Out Wednesdays," kicking off next week. Inspired by classic talk radio, it invites listeners to call in and deliver their best smack talk on politics, sports, or public figures for a chance to win prizes like gift cards or concert tickets. Clay emphasizes keeping it fun, clean, and anonymous to avoid any legal drama.   The main discussion dives into a major crisis affecting Mississippi's liquor stores, bars, and restaurants: a meltdown at the state's ABC warehouse. After a partial privatization in 2023, new software glitches, removed conveyor systems, and massive backlogs have left shelves empty and businesses struggling. Clay breaks down the issues, referencing local reports and legislative hearings, and highlights the broader implications for small businesses and government inefficiency. Guests including a local blogger join to provide insights on the fallout and potential solutions.

Data centres have become one of the most contentious issue in US power markets. The question of who will pay for the new generation and grid upgrades needed to keep them running has been soaring up the political agenda, and attracting attention in the White House.Host Ed Crooks is joined on this episode by Brandon Oyer, Head of Americas Power & Water at Amazon Web Services (AWS), and Vince Parisi, President & COO at NIPSCO, the Northern Indiana Public Service Company, to discuss a solution.Together, they unpack their new agreement to develop power capacity in northern Indiana, which they say will enable AWS to add 2.4 gigawatts of data centre capacity without sticking everyone else with the bill. Data centres are not just for AI: they are the “invisible digital backbone” behind everything from banking to healthcare to emergency services, Brandon says. But he also acknowledges that local communities around data centre developments are right to ask hard questions about costs. NIPSCO and other utilities agree. Vince says they welcome the economic activity and tax revenues that new data centres bring, but the goal for the electricity system is to ensure customers “aren't paying for it.” AWS and NIPSCO say their agreement, which they announced last November, will achieve that goal. In fact, they expect to save customers money, unlocking $1 billion in customer savings over 15 years.So what actually makes this deal different, and is it a template others can copy? Brandon and Vince walk through the ring-fenced structure (a separate GenCo that funds and builds generation), the performance incentives, and why both sides landed on a 15-year commitment even as data-centre hardware cycles every few years. You'll also hear why AWS doesn't see its data centres as truly flexible loads, how the GenCo model let NIPSCO lock in long-lead equipment early, and what plugging this capacity into the MISO power market means for the reliability of electricity supplies.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

In this episode we discuss how biblical fasting is vastly different from any other fast out there. Unpacking all the misconceptions, temptations and even distractions that can come along with it. Including, how to keep your fast from becoming an unintentional hunger strike, how to keep God at the center of it & what the original purpose of a fast was intended for, so that yours can bear the fruit that is possible. So if you have wondered what the bible says about fasting, or the in's and out's of how to grow in fasting on your walk with God, then I would encourage you to give this episode as well as the part 2 (out next) a listen. It just might light a fire within you to grow in this spiritual discipline. And who knows, the results just might be eternal. WebsiteInstagram

Historian Kevin Impellizeri shares a story of a video game controversy to his friends: Kate Lynch and Andy Hunter. Just in time for the latest installment of the Real Game Awards, we finish our look back at the first installment of the anti-woke game awards show made by gamers courageous enough to give Stuttering Craig Skistimas money. This time, we wade into the role of Warhammer 40,000 and the Real Game Awards and examine the show's impact (or lack thereof).Topics discussed include: literally betting on a game getting a good review score, imperial cheeseburgers, the complicated meanings of Warhammer 40,000's Imperium of Man, Craig's membership dues come up, and we read a TRGA acceptance speech.For more details on the people who get into Warhammer 40,000 specifically for the fascism, check out:Tim Colwill, “Satire Without Purpose Will Wander In Dark Places,” June 2023, https://timcolwill.com/40K.htmlJordan Carroll, “Welcome to Warhammer 40K's anti-fascist future,” Polygon, October 25, 2022, https://www.polygon.com/23414657/warhammer-40k-anti-fascism-space-marines-capitalism-leagues-of-votann-hate Edwin Evans-Thirlwell, “Why play a fascist?

"It is physiologically contraindicated for nurses to remain in practice" Nurses Uncorked welcomes back Dr. Lorre Laws PhD, RN to the podcast. In this episode, Nurse Erica shares her personal journey as the primary caregiver for her mother with Alzheimer's Disease. This conversation delves into the impact of unintegrated trauma on nurses and the necessity for self-compassion to aid in recovery. The discussion highlights the silent epidemic of nurse-specific trauma and how it affects nurses' mental and physical health. The statistics reveal high rates of PTSD, depression, substance abuse, and suicide among nurses. The conversation emphasizes the need for a deeper understanding of the nervous system and the importance of addressing personal and professional struggles faced by healthcare workers. The discussion also touches on trauma education lacking in nursing programs and asks the question - are nurses being traumatized to monetize? Interested in Sponsoring the Show?

Today's episode kicks off with election integrity special guest Mark Cook. He's an election and cyber-security expert, dropping hard evidence on Dominion Voting Systems. From hidden web servers and proof-of-concept demos showing vulnerabilities. Byrne's latest fire: unsealed grand jury evidence on Smartmatic, compromised hardware from China, a Taiwan switcheroo, and ties to Venezuela/Cuba that could blow open decertification of entire systems. If this holds, it's game-changing proof the machines aren't secure.We shift to the raw outrage from Colorado parents fighting back against a system that seems hell-bent on protecting predators instead of kids. Erin for Parental Rights out here in Commie land Colorado confronted lawmakers after seven Democrats voted no on tougher penalties for child sex traffickers and then refused to let voters decide via ballot measure. Add in the fresh bomb: Colorado Democrats just introduced a bill to decriminalize prostitution statewide, repealing crimes like soliciting and patronizing while preempting local laws. This isn't protection, it's a dangerous slide that puts vulnerable people at risk, and parents are done staying silent.This show pulls no punches real parents confronting spineless politicians, fresh legislation that reeks of misplaced priorities, and deep dives into voting tech corruption. Mark Cook brings receipts, Joe brings the heat, and we're asking the questions the establishment dodges. Tune in for truth that hits hard and the call to action Colorado families need right now.
