Crypto News: Bitcoin and Altcoins continue to struggle with mo major rally in Q4 but will January see a major crypto rally?Brought to you by

Donate (no account necessary) | Subscribe (account required) Join Bryan Dean Wright, former CIA Operations Officer, as he dives into today's top stories shaping America and the world. In this final holiday edition of The Wright Report for the week, Bryan shares economic good news, responds to listener questions about immigration, judges, and American identity, and offers a deeper reflection on what it truly means to be an American in a time of division, foreign influence, and cultural strain. Economic Bright Spots After Christmas: New data from Visa, MasterCard, and American Express show holiday spending rose between four and six percent year over year. GDP growth for the third quarter came in at a strong 4.3%, beating expectations. Bryan notes that while wealthy Americans are still doing well, middle and lower-income families continue to struggle with affordability. He argues the data supports Trump's case that tariffs and deportations did not crash the economy, but instead helped stabilize growth and reduce crime. Crime Falls as Deportations Rise: More than seventeen thousand illegal immigrants have been arrested under the Laken Riley Act, with two and a half million deported or self-deported over the past year. Early crime data suggests declines in murder, robbery, and vehicle theft. Bryan cautions the data is still incomplete but says the trend aligns with common sense and historical experience. Military Recruiting Surges: The U.S. military reported its strongest recruiting numbers in fifteen years. Bryan credits leadership changes at the Pentagon and renewed focus on mission and standards, pushing back on critics who predicted chaos under Secretary Pete Hegseth. Judges, Bias, and the Rule of Law: Listener questions focus on Democrat Judge Hannah Dugan's conviction for helping an illegal immigrant escape her courtroom. Bryan explains why jury reluctance to convict shows the cultural divide remains deep. He also defends his practice of identifying which president appointed judges, arguing that judicial bias is real and supported by Supreme Court reversal data. What It Means to Be an American: Bryan expands on Monday's debate about American identity, pushing back on Vivek Ramaswamy's claim that no American is more American than another. Drawing on the Founders, George Washington's farewell address, and the presidency's constitutional requirements, Bryan argues that allegiance, time in the country, cultural assimilation, and freedom from foreign loyalties all matter. He warns that dismissing heritage and lineage risks turning the United States into a fragmented society similar to modern Europe. Listener Questions and Reflections: The episode closes with unscripted questions on Israel, artificial intelligence and future jobs, personal interests, and Bryan's path from the CIA into broadcasting. He encourages young listeners to pursue skills that require judgment and adaptability, citing careers like the Merchant Marines as one example in an AI-driven future.   "And you shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free." - John 8:32     Keywords: holiday economy consumer spending GDP growth, Laken Riley Act deportations crime drop, military recruiting surge Pete Hegseth, Judge Hannah Dugan conviction immigration, judicial bias Supreme Court reversals, what is an American Founders Washington farewell, Vivek Ramaswamy citizenship debate, assimilation heritage American identity, AI jobs future Merchant Marines

Josh Sigurdson reports on the breaking news regarding the Pentagon's official agreement with xAI at the Department Of War, utilizing AI for militarism worldwide. This agreement comes months after President Trump signed an AI militarism deal with Saudi Arabia and Qatar alongside Palantir's Alex Karp and Peter Thiel, Sam Altman, Larry Fink of BlackRock, Elon Musk and many other technocrats. As we've warned for decades, social media was always meant to be the surveillance Trojan Horse to bring in social credit. Where people voluntarily give up their private information for a large database which is then used to determine via machine learning what kind of person you are. China did this with Sesame Credit years ago via WeChat. Now, it's being done for the Great Reset agenda which is rapidly being put into place both by the left and the right. XMoney which claims to be anti-establishment works in collaboration with Visa. X is being registered as a bank. Its algorithm is based in social credit. Elon Musk wants to put chips in your brain attaches to a Pentagon funded mesh network. He says AI will destroy humanity, yet he's the main person developing it. He says AI will take over most jobs, but don't worry, you can have UBI (Universal Basic Income) which is exactly what the WEF is pushing. He's creating a hive mind with Starlink. Now he's integrating xAI with the Pentagon. Do you understand what's happening yet? This all happens the same week that the US puts forward plans to demand 5 years of social media history to enter the US alongside 10 years of emails, biometrics and photo metadata? The same month that the US government announces it is putting facial recognition and license reading cameras on all highways and within all cities to track all drivers all the time to "track suspicious activity?" The same month that multiple states mandate a digital ID for internet usage? All the while, the government is attesting to demand age verification checks for VPN usage. This isn't a coincidence. With RealID among digital IDs mandated worldwide to fix problems the state created in the first place as well as Basel 3 bail in policies at 63 central banks, the digital prison is becoming more inescapable. On top of this, Chicago and New York City are pushing government run grocery stores and want to push food rations based on your digital fingerprint. Don't live in fear, reject this and prepare yourselves accordingly so you aren't dependent on banks and grocery stores or you will quickly be left behind. Stay tuned for more from WAM!

Japan's ruling Liberal Democratic Party is considering adding Japanese language proficiency as a requirement for permanent residency for foreigners, sources familiar with the matter said Friday. To obtain the status, foreigners will also be mandated to take a program aimed at helping them smoothly integrate into local communities, the sources said. The envisaged new requirements will be included in a draft package of proposals on policy for foreign nationals, to be compiled next month for submission to the government. Episode notes: ‘Japanese Proficiency Eyed as Permanent Residency Requirements': https://barrierfreejapan.com/2025/12/23/japanese-proficiency-eyed-as-permanent-residency-requirement/

The chief executive officer of the IRS said during an interview on Tuesday that around 94 percent of middle-class Americans will see some form of tax relief next year. He added that Social Security recipients will see “up to a $6,000 benefit.” Frank Bisignano's comments come after Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent and White House economic adviser Kevin Hassett have both projected significant refunds in the 2026 tax year due to legislation that was signed into law over the summer by President Donald Trump.A thunderous explosion at a nursing home just outside Philadelphia killed at least two people, collapsed part of the building, sent flames shooting into the air, and left people trapped inside. Pennsylvania Gov. Josh Shapiro said in a news conference several hours after the explosion that at least two people had been killed. The explosion occurred at Bristol Health and Rehabilitation Center in Bristol Township as a utility crew began searching for a gas leak on site.

En el episodio de hoy de VG Daily by VectorGlobal, Andre Dos Santos y Eugenio Garibay repasan qué está diciendo el consumo en EE. UU. al cierre del año y cómo ese pulso se traduce en señales para la economía y los mercados. La idea central es que el gasto aumenta, pero no de manera pareja.​Con datos recientes, comentan que Visa estima un alza de 4.2% en el gasto navideño, con e-commerce creciendo más rápido que la tienda física. A partir de ahí, discuten cómo tecnología y hábitos de compra (más digital, más comparación) están reconfigurando qué sectores ganan y cuáles se quedan atrás.​Finalmente, aterrizan el concepto de “economía en K”, un consumo agregado que luce resiliente puede convivir con presión financiera en ciertos segmentos, algo que se ve con claridad cuando se mira más allá del promedio. Un episodio para entender no solo “cuánto” se gasta, sino “quién” lo está sosteniendo y por qué eso importa para 2026.

On today's podcast:1) The US Justice Department released another tranche of files related to Jeffrey Epstein, including some that add fresh pressure on President Trump over his past relationship with the late, disgraced financier. The trove includes thousands of additional pages of material related to investigations of Epstein, including a 2020 email from a prosecutor that contains new detail about Trump’s trips on Epstein’s private jet in the 1990s, which the president has said never took place. There are also fresh details on Epstein’s relationships with financial firms and figures.2) The US Supreme Court has refused to let President Trump start deploying National Guard troops in Chicago, dealing a setback to his drive to use the military in liberal cities across the country. Rejecting a Trump request in a 6-3 decision, the court on Tuesday left in force a judge’s ruling that has blocked the deployment since Oct. 9. The president wanted to use hundreds of troops to aid immigration enforcement in the third-largest US city. The court said the legal provision Trump sought to invoke probably doesn’t permit deployment of the National Guard in situations where the president wouldn’t have authority to send in active-duty military. The court said that under federal law, the president can deploy the armed forces to help execute the laws only in “exceptional” circumstances.3) A federal judge says the Trump administration can move ahead with a $100,000 fee on new H-1B visa applications, providing a setback for US technology companies that rely on hiring skilled foreign workers. US District Judge Beryl Howell said in a ruling Tuesday that President Trump’s move to radically increase the cost of the popular visa is lawful. The decision provides a boost to the administration’s campaign to restrict immigration and push demand for US workers. The U.S. Chamber of Commerce, which sued to block the proposal, can appeal. Howell rejected the Chamber’s argument that the president doesn’t have the power to impose the fee, finding that his proclamation was issued under “an express statutory grant of authority to the President.”See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

In this episode of The LEO Podcast, We start with the U.S. government's decision to indefinitely pause the Diversity Visa Lottery, unpacking why the program is being targeted and what the freeze means for thousands of people who rely on one of the few remaining legal pathways to permanent residency. Next, we head to the Florida Everglades to talk about Alligator Alcatraz, the immigration detention center many believe is closed, but isn't. Kevin shares the story of the small group of protesters who stayed behind after the media left, becoming an unexpected support system for families searching for answers. Finally, we zoom out to the Caribbean, where the U.S. Coast Guard is pursuing and seizing oil tankers linked to Venezuela, escalating sanctions enforcement into a tense geopolitical standoff with major implications for Latin America, global energy, and regional stability.  BONUS EPISODES Patreon: ✨www.patreon.com/latinamericaneo✨

Riksbankschefen om styrräntan, omvärldsrisker för svensk ekonomi, och vad det kan få för konsekvenser att Sveriges försvarssatsning finansieras med lån. Lyssna på alla avsnitt i Sveriges Radios app. Under hösten har det talats om en kommande vändning för svensk ekonomi. Nu menar riksbankschef Erik Thedéen att den är här.”Vi hade ganska starka kvartalssiffror för BNP-tillväxten, men det stöds av andra indikatorer också under andra halvåret. Man kan säga att konjunkturen har vänt, men vi har fortfarande mycket lediga resurser. Så i någon mening har vi fortfarande lågkonjunktur”, säger Erik Thedéen.Omvärldsrisker för svensk ekonomiI den senaste penningpolitiska rapporten från riksbanken lyfts oförutsägbar amerikansk utrikes- och handelspolitik som en osäkerhetsfaktor för svensk ekonomi. Också tendenser i USA om att vilja ställa penningpolitiken och den amerikanska riksbanken Federal Reserve under större politisk kontroll tas upp som en risk. Kan Donald Trump verkligen ta kontroll över USA:s centralbank? ”Det är en bra fråga. Det är delvis en juridisk fråga, och det är en del rättsfall som nu prövas. Han vill avskeda en av ledamöterna, Lisa Cook, och det är nu uppe för juridisk prövning. Det blir ett test på: Har de ett starkare skydd än andra myndighetschefer likt vi har i Sverige och likt man har i ECB, eller har man inte det?”, säger Erik Thedéen.Erik Thedéen får frågor om hur han skulle göra om det kom liknande politiska påtryckningar mot riksbanken i Sverige.”Jag vet ju vad det står i lagen, och den kommer jag följa till punkt och pricka. Där står det att politiker helt enkelt är förbjudna att ge mig instruktioner, och lika viktigt är att jag och mina kollegor i direktionen är förbjudna att ta emot instruktioner. Så skulle det bli en sån här diskussion, vilket vi inte alls är nära eller ens sett i Sverige, då skulle jag förstås vara väldigt trogen lagen”, säger Erik Thedéen.I sitt sommarprat diskuterade Erik Thedéen ”otänkbara scenarier” med USA som ett potentiellt ekonomiskt hot mot Sverige. Han menar att det med tanke på det geopolitiska läget behövs en försiktighetsprincip, exempelvis vad gäller betalningssystemen. ”Vi har till exempel två kreditkortsutgivare i Sverige som vi använder, Mastercard och Visa. Det är amerikanska bolag. Det fungerar alldeles utmärkt, men det är klokt att tänka att vi också ska ha europeiska system eller svenska system som kan fungera i det fallet att de där inte riktigt fungerar”, säger Erik Thedéen.Risker för det finanspolitiska systemetNästa års statsbudget går med underskott, och många av oppositionens skuggbudgetar följer samma mönster. I juni slöt riksdagspartierna en överenskommelse om att behovet av nya försvarsutgifter, inklusive stödet till Ukraina tillfälligt ska lånefinansieras. Det innebär att en avvikelse från det finanspolitiska ramverkets mål tillåts. Avvikelsen får innebära en ökad skuldsättning på som mest 300 miljarder kronor, och senast 2035 ska det finansiella sparandet åter vara i balans. Enligt överenskommelsen ska partierna under 2030 presentera hur balansen på nytt ska åstadkommas. Det tycker Erik Thedéen är för sent. Dröjer ett besked till dess finns risken att det hinner kommer en ny kris innan dess, säger han. ”Och då blir det nytt skäl att ha tillfälliga upplåningar och sen kan det vara ett sluttande plan. Vi är i väldigt gott utgångsläge idag, men vi ska behålla det utgångsläget och komma tillbaka till den där trovärdiga planen”, säger Erik Thedéen.Om det drar ut på tiden menar Erik Thedéen att det finns en risk att Sverige inte kommer betraktas som lika trovärdiga av finansiella aktörer. ”Återigen, vi är i ett mycket bra utgångsläge. Det är inte någon fara på taket idag, i morgon, kanske inte ens i övermorgon. Men den planen finns inte, och därför har jag liksom Finanspolitiska rådet och även Riksrevisionen varit skeptiska till att man inte är mer tydlig här”, säger Erik Thedéen.Diskussionen vi för är gränslandet mellan finanspolitiken, som är politikernas ansvar och penningpolitiken, som är Riksbankens ansvar. Traditionen bjuder ju att ni inte lägger i varandras områden. Är det rätt att du som riksbankschef resonerar kring hur statsbudgetar ska finansieras på det här sättet?”Ja, det tycker jag att det är, för att det här påverkar möjligheten att bedriva penningpolitik”, säger Erik Thedéen, och exemplifierar med Frankrike där problemen i statsfinanserna gör penningpolitiken verkningslös. ”Det här har en direkt koppling till penningpolitiken på sikt, och därför så tycker jag att det är rimligt att uttala sig om ramverket. Inte om innehållet i finanspolitiken, skatter upp, skatter ner, bidrag eller inte bidrag. Det är helt en politisk fråga”, säger Erik Thedéen.Programledare: Johar BendjelloulKommentar: Knut Kainz RognerudProducent: Johanna PalmströmTekniker: Fabian Begnert Programmet spelades in fredagen 19 december.

Welcome back to another episode of the Couple Casuals Podcast!In this episode, Stefano sits down once again with Mario (4TheNorth) — one of Canada's most influential political commentators — for a wide-ranging, no-nonsense conversation about where the country is heading and why so many Canadians feel left behind.Mario breaks down how Canada reached this moment: unchecked government spending, distorted economic data, unsustainable immigration levels, and a political system that increasingly avoids accountability. From youth unemployment and part-time job manipulation, to food bank usage hitting record highs, he explains why the official narrative no longer matches everyday reality.In this conversation, Stefano and Mario dig into:• why Canadians across all backgrounds feel “cheated” by the system• how immigration policy is straining housing, healthcare, and wages• why economic “job growth” isn't what it appears to be• how government spending is being reclassified to mask massive deficits• why political trust is collapsing — and why independent voices are growing• Mark Carney's leadership, continuity from Trudeau, and what may come nextMario also explains why he has no interest in becoming a politician, despite massive influence — and why speaking freely outside the system may be more powerful than holding office inside it.This episode is candid, fact-driven, and grounded in lived reality — a must-watch for anyone trying to understand Canadian politics beyond headlines and spin.Grab a casual, lock in, and let's get into it.Host: Stefano (stefo)Instagram: @drstefohttps://www.instagram.com/drstefo?igs...Guest: Mario Zelaya Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/mario4thenorth?igsh=MXc2YTNlNmRta2N2NA==TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@officialmariozelaya?_r=1&_t=ZS-92JJpiCu5siX: https://x.com/mario4thenorth?s=21&t=Cgz_58zASW84g-pj2PUNtwThis episode is brought to you by Canada First — secure your home with Canada's best home fortification.

In episode 220, host Galit Friedlander and guest Chad Geiger (dance agent at The Movement Talent Agency) pull back the curtain on what representation really looks like from the agency side and what dancers often misunderstand about it. We talk about essential pieces of a sustainable dance career: communication, contracts, headshots and resumes that actually serve you, and how your choices off the floor impact your opportunities just as much as your training on it. Chad shares insight on navigating direct bookings, building trust with your team, and why “doing the basics well” is still one of the biggest differentiators in today's industry.

For episode 654 of the BlockHash Podcast, host Brandon Zemp is joined by Jason Dehni of BlackOpal.BlackOpal is an on-chain asset management and payments platform bridging investment-grade yield with emerging market receivables. The problem they're solving is twofold: High-quality merchants in emerging markets pay above-market premiums for working capital, not because they're risky, but because legacy banking is expensive, slow, and opaque. Meanwhile, institutional capital in developed markets is starved for low-risk emerging market yield.BlackOpal specializes in credit card receivables, underwriting based on historical and real time transactions, and acquiring them via short-duration True Sale structures. Credit risk is further minimized through repayment by AA+ counterparties like Visa and Mastercard, resulting in near zero credit default. Currency risk is hedged via Non-Deliverable Forwards (NDFs). ⏳ Timestamps: (0:00) Introduction(0:51) Who is Jason Dehni?(3:03) What is Black Opal?(6:15) Gemstone vs. LiquidStone II(8:27) User protection & transparency(10:43) What makes Black Opal unique?(13:15) Where are Black Opal's products available?(15:04) Future opportunities in the Digital Asset market(19:35) Tokenization in the near future(23:50) Black Opal roadmap 2026(25:49) Events & conferences(27:08) Black Opal website & socials
