Southwest Power Pool’s expansion into the West marks a major step toward greater regional coordination of the electric grid. --- Earlier this year the Southwest Power Pool, the electric grid operator for much of the central United States, expanded into the Western Interconnection, becoming the first Regional Transmission Organization to operate in both the Eastern and Western grids. The move comes as Western utilities seek to address rising electricity demand, the integration of growing amounts of clean energy, and concerns about future grid reliability, challenges that broader regional coordination may help address. SPP plans to build on that expansion with Markets+, a new regional market initiative scheduled to launch in 2027. Together, these efforts represent one of the most significant pushes yet toward greater electricity market coordination in the American West. They also come as California’s grid operator pursues its own effort to expand regional market participation through its Extended Day-Ahead Market, or EDAM, giving Western utilities multiple paths toward closer regional integration, each with different approaches to governance and market oversight. On the podcast, SPP Chief Executive Officer Lanny Nickell discusses SPP’s expansion into the West and the development of Markets+. He explains why Western utilities are becoming more interested in regional coordination, the tradeoffs between independence and larger markets, and what these developments may mean for the future of the electric grid in the American West. Lanny Nickell is the Chief Executive Officer of Southwest Power Pool.

In this powerful conversation, Delano Squires, Director of the Richard and Helen DeVos Center for Human Flourishing at The Heritage Foundation and author of The Vanishing Black Family, breaks down the dramatic collapse of the Black family — from stable two-parent homes in the 1940s-1950s to today's 70% out-of-wedlock birth rate. Delano explains how slavery deformed but did not destroy the Black family, but how the combination of 1960s welfare policies and new ideologies worked to undermine it.CHAPTERS:(00:00 Introduction)(01:45 The 1986 Bill Moyers Documentary)(04:20 Why Delano Wrote This Book Now)(08:10 The Black Family Before the 1960s – Surprisingly Stable)(13:40 Slavery's Real Impact vs. Welfare & Feminism)(19:55 The Economic Argument – Jobs vs. Culture)(26:40 Why the “Marriageable Men” Theory Falls Short)(32:15 Restoring the Black Family – The Multi-Generational Plan (Church, HBCUs & More))(42:50 Final Thoughts)DELANO SQUIRES LINKS:

Di seguito la Rassegna Stampa Economica e Finanziaria del 22 giugno 2026, costruita accorpando le notizie ricorrenti e privilegiando gli impatti economici, industriali e finanziari. Basata sul dossier allegato.  MERCATI, GEOPOLITICA ED ENERGIATestate: Corriere della Sera / Repubblica / La Stampa / Il Giornale / Domani / Il Fatto Quotidiano• Hormuz resta aperto, ma il traffico è fortemente ridotto* Lo Stretto di Hormuz continua a funzionare solo parzialmente.* Le navi bloccate o in attesa risultano circa 500.* Nelle ultime 24 ore sono transitati 67 cargo, contro una media pre-crisi di 135.* Il volume di idrocarburi trasportati è sceso a 3,1 milioni di tonnellate, rispetto a una media ordinaria di 10,3 milioni, pari a circa il 30,1% dei livelli normali.* Prosegue la ricerca di rotte alternative via Arabia Saudita, Emirati e Turchia, ma nessuna infrastruttura appare in grado di sostituire integralmente Hormuz.  • Imprese europee in stato di allerta* Diverse testate evidenziano come industria, logistica e commercio internazionale stiano predisponendo piani di emergenza.* La principale preoccupazione riguarda energia, fertilizzanti, chimica di base e materie prime critiche.* L'eventuale blocco completo dello Stretto avrebbe effetti immediati su inflazione e costi industriali.  • Crimea sotto pressione* Gli attacchi ucraini alle infrastrutture energetiche hanno provocato carenze di carburante e razionamenti.* Secondo analisi citate dal Corriere, i raid alle raffinerie russe avrebbero compromesso circa un terzo della capacità di raffinazione del Paese.* La Crimea conta circa 2,5 milioni di abitanti e rappresenta un nodo logistico strategico per Mosca.  Indicazione positiva* La mancata chiusura totale di Hormuz evita, almeno per ora, uno shock energetico paragonabile a quelli del 1973 o del 2022.* Le imprese stanno accelerando la diversificazione delle catene di approvvigionamento, riducendo il rischio strutturale futuro.INTELLIGENZA ARTIFICIALE, DATA CENTER E INNOVAZIONETestate: Corriere Economia / Repubblica Affari & Finanza• L'IA entra nella governance aziendale* L'intelligenza artificiale non è più soltanto uno strumento operativo.* I board aziendali sono chiamati a gestire temi di:    * strategia;    * rischio;    * compliance;    * cultura aziendale.* Cresce la richiesta di competenze specifiche nei consigli di amministrazione.  • Lombardia leader nei Data Center* La Lombardia si conferma il principale polo italiano per i data center.* L'Italia viene descritta come ancora in grado di recuperare terreno rispetto ai grandi hub europei.* Il tema è strategico perché collega infrastrutture digitali, cloud, cybersecurity e IA generativa.  • IA e lavoro: settimana lavorativa più corta* L'automazione potrebbe ridurre il tempo dedicato alle attività ripetitive.* Emergono nuovi modelli organizzativi basati su produttività e competenze.* La sfida riguarda soprattutto PMI e formazione continua.  • Tremonti: servono regole globali* L'ex ministro richiama il rischio di concentrazione del potere tecnologico.* Viene evidenziata la necessità di una governance internazionale dell'IA, analoga a quella sviluppata per i mercati finanziari dopo il 2008.  Indicazione positiva* L'Italia può beneficiare del ciclo di investimenti in data center e infrastrutture digitali.* Per PMI e professionisti si apre una fase di forte aumento della produttività potenziale.INDUSTRIA, COMMERCIO INTERNAZIONALE E MADE IN ITALYTestate: Corriere Economia / Repubblica Affari & Finanza• I “giganti” del Made in Italy valgono 326 miliardi* Il valore aggregato delle grandi aziende del Made in Italy raggiunge 326 miliardi di euro.* Rimane però limitata la presenza di gruppi high-tech e digitali.* La crescita continua a essere trainata da lusso, manifattura avanzata, alimentare e meccanica.  • Nuove rotte commerciali* Le tensioni geopolitiche stanno accelerando la ridefinizione delle catene globali del valore.* Cresce l'importanza di India, Medio Oriente e Sud-Est asiatico come mercati alternativi.• Europa-Cina: aumenta la pressione commerciale* Bruxelles valuta misure di protezione nei confronti dei produttori cinesi.* Settori maggiormente coinvolti:    * automotive;    * batterie;    * tecnologia;    * energia verde.* Resta il rischio di ritorsioni commerciali da parte di Pechino.  Indicazione positiva* La frammentazione geopolitica favorisce le imprese italiane ad alto valore aggiunto, soprattutto nei comparti industriali specializzati.PNRR, MEZZOGIORNO E SVILUPPO TERRITORIALETestate: Il Sole 24 Ore / Italia Oggi• PNRR: effetti visibili sull'economia reale* Le misure del PNRR continuano a sostenere investimenti e occupazione.* Tuttavia il recupero dei divari strutturali del Mezzogiorno resta complesso.* Le infrastrutture, la produttività e il capitale umano continuano a rappresentare i principali colli di bottiglia.  • Giovani in fuga dal Sud* Dal 2019 i giovani residenti nel Mezzogiorno risultano diminuiti del 7,6%.* Il fenomeno continua a pesare sulla crescita potenziale delle regioni meridionali.  • Manager verso il Centro-Nord* Un manager su quattro lascia il Sud per lavorare in imprese del Centro-Nord.* Il tema della disponibilità di competenze resta centrale.  Indicazione positiva* Per la prima volta da molti anni il Mezzogiorno beneficia contemporaneamente di PNRR, incentivi industriali e investimenti infrastrutturali.* Gli effetti potrebbero diventare più visibili tra il 2027 e il 2030.FISCO, CASA E WELFARETestate: Il Sole 24 Ore / La Stampa• Bonus casa 2025* Le agevolazioni fiscali consentono ancora la detrazione al 50% in circa 7 casi su 10.* Restano determinanti le date di avvio dei lavori e la tipologia dell'immobile.  • Welfare aziendale in crescita* I fringe benefit rappresentano ormai il 55% dell'intero welfare aziendale.* Le imprese utilizzano sempre più strumenti non monetari per attrarre e fidelizzare i dipendenti.  • Piano casa* Dibattito sul programma da 160.000 alloggi tra housing sociale ed edilizia pubblica.* Il tema riguarda accessibilità abitativa e sostenibilità finanziaria degli interventi.  LAVORO, PMI E TESSUTO PRODUTTIVOTestate: Il Sole 24 Ore / Corriere Economia• Negozi di vicinato in difficoltà* Negli ultimi dieci anni ha chiuso circa l'11% dei negozi di prossimità.* Il fenomeno colpisce in misura maggiore il Centro-Nord.* Pesano e-commerce, costi energetici e mutamento delle abitudini di consumo.  • Caporalato digitale sotto osservazione* Rafforzati controlli e strumenti investigativi nel settore agricolo.* Cresce l'attenzione verso le piattaforme digitali e le nuove forme di intermediazione del lavoro.  • PMI e trasformazione digitale* Le piccole imprese stanno affrontando la sfida dell'adozione dell'IA.* Le differenze di competenze e investimenti restano ampie, ma il processo di modernizzazione appare ormai irreversibile.  

Oops, you have to turn your phone to watch as I can't figure out how to change orientation! I am still learning. This was annual Winter Park Juneteenth Celebration where i captured the Libation Ceremony in which we honored our Ancestors.E Pluribus Unum (Latin for "Out of many, one") is a foundational phrase that signifies the creation of one united nation out of the original 13 colonies in 1776. This phrase served as the de facto motto of the United States for 180 years until it was changed to In God We Trust.While there are those who are trying to erase or rewrite our history and our contributions to the world which exceeds 400 years of free labor, the Preamble to the Constitution states, " We the People of the United States , in Order to form a more perfect Union, establish Justice, insure domestic Tranquility, provide for the common defence, promote the general Welfare, and secure the Blessings of Liberty to ourselves and our Posterity, do ordain and establish this Constitution for the United States of America."The language of the preamble establishes that authority of the Government comes from the citizens.We the people, cannot forget this , our Ancestors will not let us forget.Happy Juneteenth!

The cross-national correlation between gender equality and lower fertility is exceptionally strong (r ≈ 0.81). After the 1960s, a unique mating regime spread across parts of the world—with female emancipation, individual mate choice, and effective birth control—followed by a continuing rise in singlehood and declining fertility. Almost all women still want to reproduce, but many struggle to find a good-enough partner. This article argues from an evolutionary perspective that many men's utility to “free women” has been so diminished that solving the fertility crisis by increasing pair-bonding rates seems unfeasible. A viable means for aiding the survival of low-fertility nations could be to provide women with the economic and social resources necessary for them to conclude that having children alone makes for a better life than remaining childless. Such policies would likely exacerbate male marginalization, but new technologies are on the horizon that could offer men reproductive equality.

New figures obtained under the Freedom of Information Act reveal that at least 346 third-level students in Ireland reported being homeless during the last academic year.  Student representatives say that number is likely just the “tip of the iceberg”, with many cases of hidden homelessness going unrecorded and several of the country's largest universities unable to provide data.    As Ireland's housing crisis continues to affect access to education, concerns are growing about students forced to couch-surf, sleep in cars, endure long commutes, or live in insecure accommodation while trying to complete their studies.   Alan Morrissey has been speaking about this with Molly Hickey, Vice President of Welfare and Equality at the Students Union at the University of Galway.

Across Africa, norms regulating the conduct of hostilities long predate the codification of modern international humanitarian law (IHL). The ICRC Tool on African traditions and the preservation of humanity in warfare highlights how many African societies developed rules limiting violence, protecting civilians, and preserving human dignity during conflict. These traditions resonate strongly with contemporary IHL principles and offer important insights for current efforts to protect children affected by armed conflict. At a time when children continue to face killing and maiming, attacks on schools and hospitals, recruitment, displacement, and profound psychological harm, grounding humanitarian protection in both legal obligations and culturally rooted values can strengthen efforts to uphold humanity during war. In this post, Professor Robert Doya Nanima, Member of the African Committee of Experts on the Rights and Welfare of the Child, and Special Rapporteur on Children Affected by Armed Conflict, reflects on the relevance of the ICRC Tool through the lens of the African Charter on the Rights and Welfare of the Child. Drawing connections between African traditions, IHL, and African Union frameworks such as Agenda 2040 and Agenda 2063, he argues that the protection of children in conflict requires breaking down institutional silos and placing children at the center of humanitarian action.

Good afternoon, I'm _____ with today's episode of EZ News. Tai-Ex opening The Tai-Ex opened up 279-points this morning from yesterday's close, at 44,448 on turnover of $18.6-billion N-T. Shares in Taiwan closed more than 1,000 points higher Friday with AI-related stocks in focus amid improved sentiment after U.S. President Donald Trump cancelled planned strikes against Iran. Analysts say electronics heavyweights, notably in the semiconductor industry simply followed suit and the momentum largely reflected optimism toward AI development. And select raw material stocks also moved higher in line with the Taiex. Civil groups urge protections for migrant caregivers through agency hiring Civil groups are urging the government to allow household migrant caregivers to be hired and managed by long-term care agencies. They say, the move would prevent overwork and better protect the interests of both those providing and receiving care. Protesters demonstrated at a rally outside the Ministry of Health and Welfare, saying "exploitation (利用，剝削) is not a choice." Advocates described facing long working hours, limited opportunities for rest or leave, and increasing care responsibilities that often go beyond what one person can do. They noted that the rights to rest and take leave are "fundamental labor and human rights," and emphasized that caregivers being overworked affected the quality of care received by older adults. MOHW officials say that the proposed change would require significant regulatory changes and careful assessment. 2 Mercury viewing events coming up The Taipei Astronomical Museum says, stargazers may be able to view Mercury with the naked eye twice this week… This month Mercury is visible low in the western sky after sunset and can be seen more easily with binoculars. The first event will occur tomorrow, with one of the best chances all year to observe the planet. Then on Wednesday, Mercury will join Venus, Jupiter, and a crescent moon in the western sky,with all four objects forming a vertical arrangement. The museum recommended viewing the events between 7 p.m. and 8:30 p.m. from a location with an unobstructed (無障礙的) view of the western horizon… but they do warn of unstable weather affecting visibility. Gaza latest Gaza's Health Ministry says the Palestinian death toll from the Israel-Hamas war has surpassed 73,000. The updated toll came as Israel has continued to strike what it says are militant targets, often killing civilians, despite a fragile (脆弱的) ceasefire deal reached in October. Donna Warder again. G7 Summit Protests Thousands of demonstrators are converging in Geneva to show their discontent with the G7 group of rich countries. U.S. President Donald Trump and counterparts are set to hold a summit starting today across Lake Geneva in France. Environmentalists and feminists on Sunday joined protesters against imperialism (帝國主義), defenders of independent media and supporters of Palestinian rights and others in a lakeside park for a march across town. The summit from Monday to Wednesday in Evian-les-Bains, France, will discuss the Middle East, Ukraine and global economic issues. Demonstrators have been gathering for days. Switzerland Rejects Proposal to Cap Population Swiss voters have rejected a proposal to cap the country's population at 10 million. The initiative, led by the right-wing Swiss People's Party, was seen as a move against migration. Preliminary results showed nearly 55% opposed the measure, with a turnout of almost 59%. Critics warned it could harm Switzerland's ties with the European Union. Switzerland isn't an EU member but is surrounded by EU countries. The proposal's defeat reflects ongoing debates about immigration in Europe. Swiss democracy allows voters to directly influence policy through referendums, highlighting the country's unique approach to governance (治理). That was the I.C.R.T.

Host Tara and co-host Lee react to a breaking Truth Social post from President Donald Trump announcing that the United States intends to take control of Iran's Kharg Island tonight. They debate the strategic choice behind broadcasting a military operation in advance, questioning if it serves as a piece of deception or tactical supremacy over the Strait of Hormuz. Turning to the home front, Tara highlights major domestic victories that are being overshadowed by Middle Eastern developments, detailing a massive systemic dismantling of illegal immigration and welfare systems, including the removal of four million people from SNAP benefits and a HUD housing audit uncovering widespread documentation loopholes.

THEY CALLED REAGAN A RACIST FOR CALLING FOR WELFARE REFORM. THE USDA JUST FOUND 244,000 DEAD PEOPLE STILL ON THE ROLLS. Reagan described the fraud in 1976 and the press called it fantasy for fifty years — today we trace the line from Linda Taylor's Cadillac to the Roman grain dole to 4.3 million off the SNAP rolls and explain why what Brooke Rollins just did is something no Roman emperor ever managed. Then we take the Wall Street Journal's story calling North Korea the world's most surprising economic success story and run it through the same template Lloyd George used when he rode the autobahn in 1936 and came home calling Hitler the George Washington of Germany. Camellia from Americans for Prosperity Missouri joins us on Pete Hegseth landing Mormons outside the Christian column while erasing atheist and pagan service members entirely.

God Bless America - Seek The Welfare Of The City by Heritage Church

Churches and charities are warning that the federal government's plan to increase taxes on discretionary trusts could cost the welfare and community sector billions of dollars in donations. Christian and Muslim leaders have asked Treasurer Jim Chalmers to reconsider.Mark Fowler has been following the story.GUEST:Mark Fowler is a charity lawyer and advisory committee member for the Australian Charities and Not-for-Profit Commission, a commonwealth agency. 

For years, electricity prices broadly tracked inflation. New pressures may be changing that. --- Electricity prices have become a major political issue in the United States, with policymakers increasingly focused on rising utility bills and the costs of meeting growing electricity demand. At the same time, renewable energy has often been blamed for driving prices higher. But what does the data actually show? Ryan Hledik of The Brattle Group discusses research conducted with Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory on U.S. electricity price trends. The research finds that, nationally, electricity prices have largely tracked inflation, though significant regional differences tell a more complicated story. Hledik explains the factors that really drive electricity prices, the role of renewable energy, natural gas, and infrastructure investment, and why electricity costs vary so dramatically across the country. Hledik also explores whether 2025, when electricity prices rose faster than inflation nationally, marks the beginning of a new era of rising electricity prices, or a temporary departure from a longer-term trend. Ryan Hledik is an alumni policy advisor with the Kleinman Center for Energy Policy and a principal with The Brattle Group.

I did a livestream recap of the Mormon History Association (MHA highlights) conference, broadcast straight from my hotel room in lovely Las Vegas. Guided by some slightly out-of-order, AI-generated slides, this recap covers the most fascinating historical deep dives, unexpected gems, and award winners from the weekend. https://youtube.com/live/wy_-u8OCLMs Unexpected MHA Highlights & Gems: Pro Wrestling and Gnosticism One of the absolute standout presentations explored “The Mormon Giant,” Don Leo Jonathan, a 6’6″ pro wrestler active from the 1930s to the 1960s. Early in his career, he played up a “weird” and radical polygamist trope—complete with an unkempt beard and a live snake he claimed was from the Garden of Eden. However, to aid the Church’s PR shift toward mainstream assimilation in the 1950s and 60s, he transitioned to a clean-shaven, patriotic hero. Surprisingly, President David O. McKay, who was apparently a wrestling fan, actually authorized this PR gimmick to help mainstream the Church. Suprprisingly, his career ended via injury when he spun 7 foot tall Andre the Giant and injured his back in 1980, ending his wrestling career. Another surprise gem of the conference was a presentation by Mike Lemon on the “Temple of the Pearl,” a modern-day fringe group blending Mormon priesthood and eternal marriage with Gnosticism, chakras, yoga, and an androgynous double godhead. Mike LeCheminant, a dentist from Houston, TX gave an amazing presentation and I hope to get him on the podcast soon to talk more about this free love polygamist group. Politics, Welfare, and the New Deal MHA Highlights Several scholars provided a deep dive into the Church’s 1930s resistance to FDR’s New Deal, noting how leaders created their own welfare system driven by theological self-sufficiency to “supplant the dole” and discredit Roosevelt. Historian Matt Harris highlighted Hugh B. Brown, a vocal Democrat and trusted confidant of Heber J. Grant, who supported FDR’s programs. Brown faced severe backlash for taking the chairmanship of the state liquor commission after prohibition’s repeal, a controversial move that delayed his call to the Quorum of the Twelve Apostles by decades. We also learned about Senator Elbert Thomas, who defeated Apostle Reed Smoot in an election and applied his faith to international humanitarianism. Driven by the historical memory of 19th-century Latter-day Saint persecution, Thomas partnered with Jewish activists to force FDR to create a board that ultimately saved 200,000 Jewish lives. Finally, MHA President Ben Park delivered an address on Cleon Skousen’s massive political influence, explaining how Skousen tied Mormon agency to free-market capitalism and popularized works like The Naked Communist among conservative evangelicals through careful “code-switching.” Reevaluating Settler Colonialism & Science MHA Highlights Elise Boxer gave a powerful presentation challenging traditional “manifest destiny” pioneer narratives. She urged an indigenous lens to view Mormonism as a vehicle for US colonial expansion, pointing to the “This is the Place” monument as a visual example of reducing Native Americans to a marginalized backdrop. In the realm of 20th-century history, Steven Peck discussed BYU biologist Duane Jeffery’s 1970s push for evolutionary biology. Jeffery faced severe backlash and potential termination from Ezra Taft Benson in the 1980s, but was defended by current President Dallin H. Oaks, who decreed that the university must not censor truth or assume faith is too fragile for scientific reality. Polygamy Economics and Early Records MHA Highlights Our on Mary Ann Clements presented fascinating research examining the economic factors behind early plural marriage using Nauvoo tax records. She highlighted how leaders like Brigham Young may have strategically pursued women from wealthier families, such as Martha Brotherton, who famously refused a marriage proposal from Young at age 17 and was locked in a room at the Red Brick Store. Additionally, Cheryl Bruno announced the thrilling discovery of an 1854 list of Joseph Smith’s plural wives. This crucial document pushes the timeline of documented lists to just a decade after his death, earlier than the famous Thomas Bullock list. Award/MHA Highlights The conference also celebrated major contributions to the field of Mormon history. Posthumous honors went to Ardis Parshall, who received the Public History Award for her work championing the unheralded stories of everyday members. George D. Smith received the Arrington Award for fostering independent research as the co-founder of Signature Books, and Elise Boxer took home the Indigenous Studies Award for her book on Mormon settler colonialism. Did you go? What are your thoughts? Next year, John Turner will lead the conference as new MHA president in Provo, Utah. (Las Vegas to Provo is definitely a 180 in environment. I was surprised when a conference attendee was propositioned by a woman offering to make his night memorable. Clearly she didn’t care that most MHA attendees frown on such things. I don’t expect that to happen in Provo!) 00:00:02 Introduction & Welcome 00:04:17 Awards Ceremony (Friday Night) 00:08:34 New Deal & Hugh B. Brown Discussion 00:12:33 Mormon Settlement in Nevada 00:16:22 Mormon Settler Colonialism 00:20:33The Mormon Giant (Don Leo Jonathan) 00:24:40 Latter-day Saint Eloquence & Speaking 00:29:05 Canonization & Doctrine & Covenants 00:33:30 Saturday Sessions Overview 00:37:43 Polygamy in Nauvoo 00:41:50 Economic Factors in Plural Marriage 00:45:41 Earliest Plural Wife Lists 00:49:39 Ben Park’s Presidential Address (Cleon Skousen) 00:53:42 Evolution & BYU (Duane Jeffrey) 00:57:50 Gnostic Mormon Offshoot (Temple of the Pearl) 1:01:59 Final summary From deep dives into 20th-century political clashes to the surprising intersections of theology and wrestling, this MHA conference proved that Mormon history is vibrant, complex, and full of ongoing discoveries.

98% of patients welcome AI in their care — and still want a human in charge. That tension ran through the OECD and Spanish Ministry of Health conference on scaling AI in health (Madrid, late May 2026), and it frames this episode of Faces of Digital Health. Out of 38 OECD countries, only seven have a formal AI strategy and just over a tenth run workforce upskilling programmes — the ambition is outrunning the institutions meant to govern it. Host Tjaša Zajc brings together voices from across the conference to ask what actually has to change: regulation, trust, who gets a seat at the table, and the parts of the agenda nobody is funding. Featuring: - Eric Sutherland — Senior Economist, OECD - Aferdita Bytyqi — Executive Director & Founding Partner, Digital Transformations for Health Lab (DTH-Lab) - Erza Selmani — Research Fellow, DTH-Lab - Valentina Strammiello — Executive Director, European Patients Forum (EPF) - Dr Ricardo Baptista Leite — CEO, HealthAI (the Global Agency for Responsible AI in Health) - Dr Persephone Doupi — Senior Medical Officer, Finnish Institute for Health and Welfare; President, European Federation for Medical Informatics (EFMI) What the conversation covers: - Why trust — not capability — is the binding constraint on health AI adoption - The OECD readiness gap: AI strategies, HTA frameworks and workforce upskilling - How patients really feel about AI: consent forms, transparency, and keeping clinicians central - Why youth health and wellbeing keep getting left out of AI governance frameworks - Five recommendations to make the EU AI Act work for health and competitiveness - Coordinating the EU AI Act, MDR/IVDR and the European Health Data Space - Health technology assessment and reimbursement as the real barriers to scale - AI literacy and prevention: the most underweighted lever in the room Chapters: 0:10 — Welcome: AI in Health & the 2026 OECD Conference in Madrid 0:25 — Key Stats: Only 7 of 38 OECD Countries Have a Formal AI Strategy 2:10 — Eric Sutherland (OECD): We're Not Using Data as Effectively as We Could 3:11 — Afrodita & Erza (DTH Lab): Youth Health Is Missing from AI Governance Frameworks 5:12 — Valentina Stramello (EPF): 98% of Patients Are Positive About AI, But Trust Requires Transparency 7:14 — Dr. Ricardo Baptista Leite (Health AI): 5 Recommendations to Fix EU AI Policy for Health 10:53 — Persephone Doupi (EFMI): We Must Prioritize AI Literacy and Shift Healthcare Toward Prevention —

This episode continues our investigation into the implications of advanced AI for jobs, and specifically, how to design an economic system that makes a huge success of full automation by AI.Back in 2017, Bill Gates mused that governments should address radical automation by taxing robots. Gates may not have known it at the time, but he was suggesting a Pigouvian tax. In a 1920 book called “The Economics of Welfare”, Arthur Pigou proposed levying taxes on activities that generate negative externalities — costs on third parties to a transaction. The classic example of that is pollution: a factory produces goods but creates pollution. The market price of the goods doesn't reflect the pollution costs, so the factory managers don't try very hard to minimise them.A Pigouvian tax adds the social cost of the pollution into the price, so the producer is incentivised to minimise it.Gerry Tsoukalas and Brett Falk have published a well-received paper called “The AI Layoff Trap”, which recommends introducing a Pigouvian tax on automation that eliminates human jobs. Their proposal deserves credit for taking seriously the idea that AI may well cause severe automation, perhaps full automation – i.e. the Economic Singularity.The paper describes how firms face a prisoner's dilemma. If they automate all their jobs then there will be no consumers to pay for any of their products. But if any of them don't, their automating competitors will drive them out of business. Tsoukalas and Falk point out, counter-intuitively, that the fiercer the competition, the more acute the dilemma, so if we want to hold back automation, we might be better off with monopoly-ridden economies. Selected follow-ups:Gerry TsoukalasBrett Hemenway FalkThe AI Layoff Trap - The Wharton School Research PaperPDF of the AI Layoff Trap paperArthur Pigou - WikipediaPrisoner's dilemma - Wikipedia"Microsoft AI chief gives it 18 months—for all white-collar work to be automated by AI""Chinese court rules firms can't lay off workers on AI grounds"Music: Spike Protein, by Koi Discovery, available under CC0 1.0 Public Domain DeclarationC-Suite PerspectivesElevate how you lead with insight from today's most influential executives.Listen on: Apple Podcasts Spotify

EPISODE DESCRIPTION A shocking new figure buried inside a weekend report is fueling outrage nationwide: investigators now estimate that at least $3 trillion in taxpayer money may have been improperly paid out through government programs since 2003 — and officials believe the real number could be even higher. This episode dives into claims from the Trump administration and supporters of JD Vance that decades of weak oversight, expanded COVID-era policies, and failures at the state level opened the door to massive fraud in welfare and Medicare programs. The discussion explores how anti-fraud technology used by banks and companies like eBay and Amazon could potentially transform government systems, why some states are resisting oversight efforts, and what the findings could mean for taxpayers moving forward. The conversation also examines political backlash surrounding fraud investigations, welfare reform debates, and growing concerns over the long-term impact on the national debt. KEY TOPICS Alleged $3 trillion in improper government payments Welfare and Medicare fraud investigations Trump administration anti-fraud initiatives JD Vance's role in oversight efforts COVID-era policy changes and benefit expansion State-level resistance to anti-fraud enforcement Illegal benefit claims and eligibility concerns Technology solutions for fraud prevention National debt and taxpayer accountability Political backlash over government audits SEO KEYWORDS government fraud, welfare fraud, Medicare fraud, JD Vance, Trump administration, taxpayer money, federal spending, national debt, fraud investigation, government waste, COVID fraud, welfare abuse, anti fraud technology, Medicaid fraud, food stamp fraud, federal accountability CHAPTERS 00:00 Stunning Fraud Numbers Revealed 03:08 The $3 Trillion Estimate Explained 06:52 COVID Policies and Oversight Failures 10:27 How Fraud Expanded Across State Programs 14:15 Banks vs Government Fraud Detection 18:04 Why Anti-Fraud Technology Already Exists 21:33 Medicaid and Food Stamp Eligibility Concerns 25:18 Wisconsin Benefit Roll Controversy 28:40 Political Backlash Against Fraud Investigations 32:06 Could Fraud Reduction Shrink the National Debt? YOUTUBE DESCRIPTION A staggering new estimate is raising serious questions about government spending and oversight in America. According to new figures discussed in this episode, investigators believe at least $3 trillion in taxpayer money may have been improperly paid out through welfare, Medicare, and other federal programs since 2003 — with officials warning the true total could be even higher. The discussion breaks down: Anti-fraud investigations tied to the Trump administration Claims from JD Vance regarding benefit abuse COVID-era policy changes that loosened oversight Why banks and private companies use fraud systems the government still lacks Concerns over illegal benefit claims and state-level enforcement The political fight surrounding audits and government accountability The episode also explores how fraud prevention technology could potentially reshape federal spending and whether these discoveries could impact the future debate over the national debt.

Generational wealth building for women starts long before the first investment, the first business, or the first paycheck. It starts with the decision to believe your life can look different from the one you inherited. On Getting Rich Together, host Syama Bunten sits down with Twyla Garrett, a serial entrepreneur, real estate developer, and founder of the Garrett Foundation, whose story is one of the most compelling examples of how to build wealth from poverty you will ever hear. Twyla grew up in Cleveland's inner city, was removed from her home at 14, spent time in juvenile homes, and relied on welfare and food stamps during college. She left with a financial acumen that would eventually carry her to seven figures within a year of walking away from a government job. Twyla does not skip the hard parts. From doing taxes and bookkeeping as a teenager to buying her first home at 26 with just $4,000 and shaky credit, to transforming a derelict Cleveland train station into the city's largest jazz supper club, Twyla's path is a masterclass in how to scale a business from nothing. Women entrepreneurs and real estate intersect throughout her journey in ways that feel practical and urgent, not abstract. But the conversation goes further than personal success. Twyla is now channeling everything she has built into a model for affordable homeownership in the inner city, one that replaces Section 8 dependency with actual ownership. People take care of what they own. A $200,000 condo with a $900 monthly mortgage costs less than what Section 8 currently pays for a two-bedroom rental. That gap is where generational wealth building for women and for entire communities becomes possible. If you have ever wondered whether your starting point disqualifies you, this episode is a reminder that your starting point does not have to define what you build next. And if you are ready to keep going, Wealth Catalyst is where women take it further.

GymCastic Live: Featuring Chae CampbellReplay tickets available → Get tickets here SAM OLDHAM INTERVIEW British gymnastics legend Sam Oldham is here, and yes, we're going to talk about everything from winning Great Britain's historic (first in 100 years) bronze medal at the London Olympics that changed everything for British Gymnastics, to the chaos, comedy, and emotional whiplash of elite gymnastics life. Sam brings the rare combination of competition accolades, deep gym nerd-student credentials, and the kind of honesty about athlete culture that makes you gasp-laugh and then immediately need a therapy session. We discuss the pressure cooker of British Gymnastics, his friendship and love for his coach, surviving weight-obsessed culture he swore he would never succumb to, and being followed by a Japanese gymnastics spy!

1. King Charles III’s Visit to the U.S. King Charles addresses a joint session of Congress, becoming only the second British monarch to do so (after Queen Elizabeth II in 1991). The visit is symbolic of deep historical and constitutional ties between the U.S. and the U.K., especially as America approaches its 250th anniversary. Shared Anglo-American legal traditions (Magna Carta, English Bill of Rights, John Locke). The irony of honoring a British monarch given America’s revolutionary origins. King Charles is portrayed as: Surprisingly humorous and personable, using dry British wit. Well-received across party lines, including Democrats who previously opposed “monarchy symbolism.” President Trump is quoted praising the King’s speech and leveraging the visit to reinforce themes of heritage, liberty, and national identity. 2. FBI Raids on Alleged Somali Fraud Operations The FBI conducts 22 raids in Minnesota, reportedly targeting childcare centers accused of defrauding federal programs. Allegations include: Billing for childcare services not provided. Large-scale misuse of taxpayer funds. Claims that some funds were diverted abroad (including alleged terrorism links—presented as accusations, not proven facts). Specific political figures (e.g., Ilhan Omar, Governor Tim Walz) are accused by the speakers of: Ignoring, enabling, or benefiting politically from the alleged fraud. Ben and the Senator praise the Department of Justice and Trump administration for aggressive enforcement, framing it as overdue accountability. Welfare recipients owned luxury vehicles (Tesla, Porsche, Lamborghini, Ferrari, etc.). Exploited eligibility loopholes like Broad-Based Categorical Eligibility (BBCE). Weak identity and asset verification enabling fraud. The welfare system is: “Fraud by design,” incentivized to maximize dependency rather than enforce eligibility. Poorly monitored by Democratic-led states. The narrative argues for tighter controls, asset checks, and stricter enforcement. Please Hit Subscribe to this podcast Right Now.
