Beef Packer Margins Rebound To Record U.S. Beef Packer Margins Turn Positive After Labor Day as Wholesale Prices Hit Record Highs Beef packer margins in the U.S. rebounded into positive territory during the first week after Labor Day, fueled by record-setting wholesale beef prices, according to the latest Beef Profit Tracker from Drovers. U.S. Beef Packer Margins Turn Positive After Labor Day as Wholesale Prices Hit Record Highs For the week ending September 6, the Comprehensive Cutout Value climbed $5 from the prior week to its highest level on record. With fed cattle priced at $244.44/cwt, packer margins averaged an estimated $38.05 per head, a sharp turnaround from the $9.50/head loss posted the week before. Feedlots Report Strong Cattle Feeding Margins Feedlot profitability also strengthened. Average 5-Area Direct Steers traded at $242.62/cwt, well above the estimated breakeven of $192.35/cwt. That left calculated feeding margins at an impressive $703.74/head, compared to $662.03 the previous week and only $90.42/head during the same period in 2023. Beef Production Declines, Margins Improve Even with lower cattle slaughter numbers — 487,000 head versus 565,000 head the prior week — packer and feedlot profits improved. Fed plant capacity utilization dropped to 67.8% from 78.6%, while cow plant utilization fell to 53%. Outlook: Tight Supply and Strong Demand Support Fall Profits The data underscores a tightened beef supply chain paired with strong consumer demand, setting the stage for continued profitability for both cattle feeders and beef packers heading into fall 2025.

      Saul and Jolene went to a couple conventions in late August and Early September.  In late August they went to Galaxycon in San Jose.  It takes place in downtown San Jose at the McEnery Center.  It is the largest convention center in the South Bay.  Saul was really impressed with all the guest speaker, panels, activities that were available at Galaxycon.  This was Jolenes and Sauls first time attending a Galaxycon.  Both came away impressed with the con and it was a very fun experience for the both of them.      Pacifcon is over Labor Day weekend and Saul and Jolene went on a Saturday once again.   Saul and Jolene met up with old friends and made new ones  playing an RPG called Troika and Boardgames.   Pacificon strengths are War Games and Miniature Games.  They also have full days of boardgames, organized play, and Protospiel.  A nice little con over Labor Day weekend.         Thank you all for listening.   Website Art by Jim Foster Episode Art by Michael Shean-Jones    No music for this episode.

Today we're doing something… a little different. I spent Labor Day weekend in Port Aransas, Texas. It is a peaceful beach town, but there are stories there that stick with you long after you leave. This episode is different from our usual format. I am sharing a few haunted tales tied to places I visited […]

Amazon Affiliate Link.   Lily King talking on Books, Beach & Beyond (2025)-  on love "Love is really the most important thing to us and possibly the thing, the only thing that is going to save us from our other impulses. I am extremely concerned about the state of mind of this country and what we are allowing and what we have voted in and what we are experiencing and, in in some ways, our lack of resistance to it, and our our silence and our complicity. And it all really comes down to love. And if we lose that ability, I don't think AI is going to help us with love, I don't think Instagram is going to help us with love. I feel like all of our habits that are increasing and increasing are pulling us apart even giving us the illusion that its not, but we are, and we have to remember what it is like to love people. In all of those forms. It is the thing that makes us human. And we have to stay human." Lily King   A few of my other favorite quotes from Writers & Lovers “When my mother died, I sort of felt her inside me sometimes,' I say. ‘Like I'd swallowed her.' He laughs. ‘Swallowed her.' ‘I still have moments when I feel that, when it feels like she's inside me, and there's no difference between us or that the difference doesn't matter.” ― Lily King, Writers & Lovers   “I can tell he lost someone close somehow. You can feel that in people, an openness, or maybe it's an opening that you're talking into. With other people, people who haven't been through something like that, you feel the solid wall. Your words go scattershot off of it.” ― Lily King, Writers & Lovers   “When I was visiting her a few years ago she hugged me and said, ‘Tomorrow after you leave I will stand here at this window and remember that yesterday you were right here with me.' And now she's dead and I have that feeling all the time, no matter where I stand.” ― Lily King, Writers & Lovers   “I look into my eyes, but they aren't really mine, not the eyes I used to have. They're the eyes of someone very tired and very sad, and once I see them I feel even sadder and then I see that sadness, that compassion, for the sadness in my eyes, and I see the water rising in them. I'm both the sad person and the person wanting to comfort the sad person. And then I feel sad for that person who has so much compassion because she's clearly been through the same thing, too. And the cycle keeps repeating. It's like when you go into a dressing room with a three-paneled mirror and you line them up just right to see the long narrowing hallway of yourselves diminishing into infinity. It feels like that, like I'm sad for an infinite number of my selves.” ― Lily King, Writers & Lovers   Note: Some links are listed as Amazon Affiliate Links.

Is the Spirit of the Lord and His anointing on me? Do I have an awareness of how God is winking at me? You do NOT have Him figured out!

In this Labor Day episode, Bob 'n Joyce shine a spotlight on the blue-collar heroes who keep our communities and organizations running. These men and women bring grit, skill, and pride to their work—whether they're building, fixing, driving, or keeping the lights on. Too often their contributions are overlooked, yet without them the systems we rely on every day simply wouldn't function. We step back to honor the dignity of all work—not just what happens in corner offices or behind computer screens. Every paycheck, every community, every thriving business stands on the shoulders of people whose names we may not know, but whose impact we feel everywhere. As OD and HR professionals, we have a responsibility to create cultures that celebrate, respect, and support these workers. Join us for a heartfelt conversation about why blue-collar work matters, what we can learn from it, and how we can give these unsung heroes the recognition they deserve. So, grab a snack, pull up a chair, and let's raise a toast to the backbone of our workplaces and our lives.

Welcome to Kat's New Hire Training! And if you yourself need a refresher on marketing and sales interlock, this is the episode for you. Kat and Ian start the show with a quick debate on the worst day of work in the calendar year...Kat's vote is the day after Labor Day, Ian argues for the day after the Super Bowl - drop your vote below. From there, class is in session, and Ian gives Kat a crash course on navigating relationships between marketing and sales before she starts her new role working closely with sales - ahh, the juxtaposition from her previous relationship with sales.

On Monday, September 1, 2025, the labor community came together for the Capital District Area Labor Federation's 'Labor Day 2025 Celebration - Rally and Picnic' at Lanthier's Grove Corporation on 4 Dunsbach Ferry Road in Latham. Our labor correspondent, Willie Terry, was there, engaging with union members to hear their thoughts on the labor issues and concerns that were at the forefront this Labor Day 2025. In this fifth segment of the voices from the Labor Day picnic and rally, Willie interviews Gustavo Santos, a Guilderland Town Board member and a member of the Public Employees Federation.

Here we go with the first of three (yikes, let's hope it's just three) episodes reviewing everything we did at Dragon Con, the ultimate gathering of geeks over Labor Day weekend in Atlanta.

All our weird friends from the American Sci-Fi Classics Track! Our guided tour for new Dragon Con attendees, during which we were secretly recorded for nefarious purposes! Dangerous fake Oreos! Classic arcade games and Geek Singalongs with Kate from Strange Animals Podcast! And some Molly Ringwald-style antics at the 80s Prom and the 120 Minutes dance party!

In this follow-up to our Labor Day conversation, we dive deeper into the meaning of work, labor, and the “nine-to-five” mindset. Are work and labor the same—or is there a biblical and cultural distinction? Has the nine-to-five schedule helped us thrive or quietly reshaped our families, communities, and faith? We wrestle with the tension between efficiency and purpose, predictability and freedom, labor and calling. This thought-provoking episode will challenge you to reflect on how you view your job, your time, and your stewardship before God. Thanks for Listening! Follow us on Facebook and Instagram!

The Cru returns for Season 5 of Radio FreeWrite! In this episode, we set fresh writing goals, reflect on unions and collective action, and laugh about Monty Python as we take on the Scots phrase ca' canny: a call to ease up, work slow, and resist.Stories this week begin at the 16:30 mark and explore resistance in many forms: a poetic plea for freedom from work and a greening earth, a Joycean sketch of paralysis on the farm, a futuristic Uber ride tinged with climate anxiety, a fantasy where unchecked power threatens destruction, and a Labor Day reflection on the risks and strength of workers.Prompt: Ca' canny — Scots expression meaning go easy, don't exert yourself, go slow; also in trade union parlance: work to rule or restrict output so as to exert pressure on employers.Like this weeks episode and wish you could read as well as listen?

This week Killbillies stopped by the studio and brought some levity from the tension and suffering of world events, with a fun episode recounting their adventures playing, and participating at Dragon Con. Dragon Con is a multigenre convention, founded in 1987, which takes place annually over the Labor Day weekend in Atlanta, Georgia. As of 2017, the convention draws attendance of over 80,000. It features hundreds of guests, encompasses five hotels in the Peachtree Center neighborhood of downtown Atlanta near Centennial Olympic Park, and runs thousands of hours of programming for fans of science fiction, fantasy, comic books, and other elements of fan culture. It is owned and operated by a corporation but also with the help of a 1,500-member, enthusiastic volunteer staff.

Upward Bound is a faith-based camp that opened in 1978 for pre-teens and adults with disabilities to experience traditional camp activities, from making s’mores around a campfire to hiking, fishing or playing outdoor games. In 2014, the camp bought an 18-acre property in Gates in Linn County that included an elementary school, a gymnasium and high school building. Classrooms were converted into bunks for campers to stay in, along with other modifications made to allow for year-round programming and activities.    Although the camp was able to successfully pivot when the pandemic broke out with individual tents for campers to stay in and other precautions taken, tragedy struck on Labor Day in 2020. As the Beachie Creek fire tore through the Santiam Canyon, Upward Bound executive director Diane Turnbull and her staff evacuated the camp. When Turnbull returned two weeks later, many of the structures had burned, including the elementary school where campers stayed.    Turnbull, with the support of Upward Bound’s board, decided to keep the camp going, with outdoor bell tents that counselors and campers now stay in. The camp recently ended its summer session and has since expanded its programming to include activities like archery, theater and music performances. Turnbull joins us to talk about the camp’s recovery efforts, including working with FEMA to rebuild structures lost in the fire that would allow the camp to expand access to people who are visually impaired or require other physical accommodations. Also joining us is Misael Pujols, a camp counselor from the Dominican Republic who recently completed his third summer working at Upward Bound.   

Dr. Elizabeth Lee Vliet is president and CEO of Truth for Health Foundation. Since February 2020, she has been part of the team of frontline physicians treating COVID early at home. With Dr. Peter McCullough, she is a co-author/editor of the Guide to COVID Early Treatment: Options to Stay Out of Hospital and Save Your Life. Discussion began by looking at President Trump who was demanding answers from the pharmaceutical companies related to the COVID shots. He indicated that the CDC is being ripped apart over the question of the shots and he wants an answer as to whether the drug companies can justify the success of the various COVID drugs because there are those who disagree. Elizabeth referred to a Trump post on Truth Social from Labor Day where he claimed he was given secret data by the pharmaceutical companies showing benefits. Such data was not released to the public. She believes President Trump was "horribly deceived by the deep state players," all who had been involved in the planning of "Operation Warp Speed" before we had ever heard of COVID and before President Trump was in office. In other words, the president was not the architect of this operation. She believes Anthony Fauci indicated that in 2017. Also, in 2017 at Davos, there was a PowerPoint presented by Bill Gates and Klaus Schwab that outlined the plan for pharma profits from the new, experimental vaccines based upon mRNA technology. Elizabeth believes that President Trump knew all along that he was being deceived yet was not in a position to take on the deep state, the vaccine cartel and the other nefarious players that had been crafting this plan.

MDJ Script/ Top Stories for September 10th Publish Date:  September 10th    Commercial: From the BG Ad Group Studio, Welcome to the Marietta Daily Journal Podcast.    Today is Wednesday, September 10th and Happy Birthday to Roger Maris I’m Keith Ippolito and here are the stories Cobb is talking about, presented by Times Journal Cobb Habitat Interfaith Coalition dedicate 25th home Austell officials call for greater oversight after Labor Day show goes largely unnoticed Investigation underway after Waffle House brawl in east Cobb All of this and more is coming up on the Marietta Daily Journal Podcast, and if you are looking for community news, we encourage you to listen and subscribe!  BREAK: INGLES 9 STORY 1: Cobb Habitat Interfaith Coalition dedicate 25th home  On Sept. 7, the Cobb Interfaith Habitat Coalition handed over the keys to their 25th Habitat house—a future home for D, a Cobb County public servant, and his family. D works long hours as a Project Utility Manager for Cobb DOT, keeping the county’s infrastructure running smoothly. But despite his steady job, he and his wife, Dreika, have struggled to find affordable housing in the very community he serves. Their current rental? Cramped, water-damaged, and unsafe. But now, with Habitat’s help, they’re building a home—a real home—with space for their kids to play and a future that feels secure. STORY 2: Austell officials call for greater oversight after Labor Day show goes largely unnoticed An Austell city-sponsored Labor Day celebration fizzled, leaving residents and officials frustrated and pointing fingers. Councilwoman Meredith Adams said she didn’t even know about the event until she heard music from her house. “Less than 200 people showed up,” she said, despite the city spending $7,500 on fireworks. The Austell Business Association, which organized the event, struggled with volunteers and promotion. Residents like Claudette Parker demanded better communication. Mayor Ollie Clemons promised more oversight moving forward. STORY 3: Investigation underway after Waffle House brawl in east Cobb Cobb Police are on the hunt for a group of teens who turned an east Cobb Waffle House into chaos early Sunday morning. It all went down around 1:58 a.m. at the Sandy Plains Road location. Witnesses say the teens were asked to leave multiple times but refused—then things got ugly. Plates were knocked off counters, and some of the teens jumped over the counter into the kitchen. One staff member was put in a headlock and hit repeatedly. A video of the fight surfaced online, sparking rumors the teens were local high school students, though police haven’t confirmed any connection. The investigation is ongoing. We have opportunities for sponsors to get great engagement on these shows. Call 770.799.6810 for more info.  We’ll be right back. Break: COBB MAKE A WISH STORY 4: Former Smyrna mayor's granddaughter seriously injured by falling branch Former Smyrna Mayor Max Bacon’s 12-year-old granddaughter, Claudia, was seriously injured over the weekend when a tree branch fell on her during the Paulding Meadows Arts Festival. A sudden storm brought the branch down, striking Claudia in the head. “It was a huge tree, and she’s just a small girl,” reads a GoFundMe set up for her recovery. She suffered a fractured skull, a bruised lung, and a broken rib, and required a blood transfusion. Claudia faces a long recovery ahead. STORY 5: After 41 years, Cobb authorities identify Mableton woman as 1984 homicide victim After 41 long years, Cobb Police have finally given a name to the young woman found near the Chattahoochee River in 1984: Veronica Jane Miller. Miller, just 20 at the time, was identified through groundbreaking genetic genealogy work by Othram Labs. A DNA match with a half-sister and family testimony confirmed it. Her partially clothed remains were discovered in May 1984, but for decades, her identity—and her story—remained a mystery. Metal pins in her ankle, facial reconstruction surgery, and a life cut short. Now, her family knows. But her case, ruled a homicide, is far from closed. Anyone with information is urged to come forward. Break: STORY 6: Cobb Veterans Memorial Foundation vows to keep 'promises made'  The Cobb Veterans Memorial Foundation isn’t giving up. Despite setbacks, they’re determined to raise the $1 million still needed to break ground on the long-promised memorial, according to a letter from President Donna Rowe. Last month, the Cobb Commission rejected a proposal to reallocate $1 million in SPLOST funds to the project, citing an agreement that the foundation would primarily fundraise. Rowe pushed back, saying the foundation has exceeded its fundraising goals, averaging $34,000 a month. STORY 7: Renowned AI expert Kathy Pham speaks at Kennesaw State’s inaugural Presidential Lecture Series event  Kennesaw State kicked off its Presidential Lecture Series on Sept. 8 with a bang—computer scientist and entrepreneur Kathy Pham took the stage to talk about artificial intelligence, a field where KSU is quickly making waves. Pham, VP of AI at Workday and a lecturer at Harvard’s Kennedy School, spoke to a packed house on “AI Across Boundaries: The Only Way Forward.” Her message? AI isn’t just about tech—it’s about collaboration. Industry, academia, government, and advocacy all need to work together to shape its future. KSU’s commitment to AI? Impressive. From launching a master’s program to groundbreaking research—like non-invasive blood sugar monitors and pest protection for crops—the university is diving headfirst into the AI revolution. We’ll have closing comments after this. Break: TRUCK A PALOOZA Signoff-   Thanks again for hanging out with us on today’s Marietta Daily Journal Podcast.

This month's headlines are stranger than fiction — and the conspiracy-fueled chaos is only heating up.The WNBA is under attack — not from critics, but from flying sex toys. Multiple games were interrupted as fans hurled brightly colored dildos onto the court, prompting outrage from players and coaches. A meme-coin group, "Green Dildo Coin," claimed responsibility for some of the stunts, allegedly to promote their launch. Arrests have been made, and the league has promised swift bans and legal action. But behind the absurdity lies a deeper issue — the ongoing disrespect and sexualization of women in sports.President Trump's silence over Labor Day sparked a viral death hoax that spiraled out of control. With no major appearances for six days, rumors of his failing health took over social media, amplified by images of swollen ankles and bruised hands. When Trump finally reappeared — smirking at a Fox News reporter's joke about his “death” — the internet had already run wild. Is this just a case of online hysteria, or is something more being hidden?Down in Georgia, a massive immigration raid at the Hyundai Metaplant led to 475 arrests — most of them Korean nationals. The operation is the largest workplace crackdown yet under the current Trump administration, with questions swirling around subcontractors and labor practices.Also in the mix:Boxing shocker: Mike Tyson vs. Floyd Mayweather Jr. is happening — two legends in one unbelievable exhibition match.Will Smith accused of using AI-generated crowds in his tour promo — glitchy fingers, warped faces, and the growing fear of deepfakes.Florida's vaccine wars escalate as the Surgeon General calls to eliminate all mandates, sparking national backlash.And Epstein survivors take justice into their own hands, vowing to compile their own “client list” and demanding full transparency from Congress.It's a wild month — let's get into it.www.patreon.com/theconspiracypodcast

On Tuesday's Mark Levin Show, Democrats, the media, and some Republicans are portraying President Donald Trump as a threat to democracy and the Constitution, but it's the opposite. Democratic Congress members, isolationist fake MAGA figures, Marxists, and Islamists are plotting to destroy American principles and the country, while being promoted by left-wing corporate media. Rep Rashida Tlaib is the enemy within, an Islamist who supports Hamas and seeks to destroy America.  She was at the People's Conference for Palestine, where she asserts Palestinians are "just getting started," and accuses "genocide enablers.” The speakers at this conference are part of the hate America crowd, undermining the U.S. from within.  Also, not all young people in America are problematic, but there's a significant portion who succumb to Marxist propaganda—often intertwined with Islamist rhetoric and issues like climate change—blaming systemic issues like capitalism, racism, or billionaires for personal shortcomings rather than taking responsibility. Life demands hard work, accountability, and individualism, and true freedom shouldn't require others' enslavement through taxes or systemic upheaval.  Later, over Labor Day weekend in Chicago at least 58 people were shot, including 8 fatalities and a drive-by wounding 7 victims. This is happening while Governor Pritzker claims crime is down. The Democratic Party is siding with criminals and offering no real solutions. Now Chicago Brandon Johnson is claiming Trump is “militarizing” Chicago. Did Ike "militarize" our schools when he federalized the National Guard in 1957 to escort black students into Central High School?  Of course not! The governor refused to allow the students safe passage into the school and blocked them from entering the school. Trump is not "militarizing" Chicago. He wants to ensure the people there are safe while the mayor and the governor are failing horribly and people are literally dying. Learn more about your ad choices.

Meet my friends, Clay Travis and Buck Sexton! If you love Verdict, the Clay Travis and Buck Sexton Show might also be in your audio wheelhouse. Politics, news analysis, and some pop culture and comedy thrown in too. Here’s a sample episode recapping four Tuesday takeaways. Give the guys a listen and then follow and subscribe wherever you get your podcasts. Code Switching Clay and Buck dive into the political and cultural landscape shaping the first fall of the Trump 2.0 presidency, highlighting the ongoing resistance from federal judges against the administration’s policies. The hosts criticize what they describe as partisan judicial activism, particularly rulings that attempt to block President Trump’s constitutional authority—such as deploying the National Guard in Los Angeles during immigration-related unrest. They emphasize how these decisions are often overturned by higher courts, including the Supreme Court, reinforcing Trump’s legal standing. The show also covers a controversial case involving 76 unaccompanied Guatemalan children who were blocked from being reunited with their families in Guatemala by a federal judge. Clay and Buck frame this as an example of how judicial overreach is obstructing humanitarian efforts and immigration reform under Trump 2.0. Call in the Guard! A deep dive into the escalating crisis of urban crime in America, with a sharp focus on cities like Chicago, Washington D.C., and Memphis. They highlight the Trump administration’s proactive stance on law and order, praising President Trump’s efforts to reduce violent crime and carjackings while exposing the political resistance from Democrat leaders who, they argue, are failing to protect their constituents. The conversation centers around the staggering statistic that 50 people were shot in Chicago over Labor Day weekend, prompting Clay and Buck to question why Democratic officials like Mayor Brandon Johnson oppose federal assistance, including National Guard deployment, to restore safety. They contrast Johnson’s slogan-heavy rhetoric with more pragmatic voices like Morning Joe’s Joe Scarborough, who surprisingly called for bipartisan cooperation with Trump to address crime in Illinois. The hosts also revisit the controversial remarks of Los Angeles Mayor Karen Bass, who suggested that increased policing would lead to too many arrests of black and brown individuals. Clay and Buck challenge this logic, emphasizing that the real victims of unchecked crime are often minorities living in high-crime neighborhoods. They argue that the true measure of safety is whether women and children can walk or jog freely in their communities without fear. Commie Mamdani The New York City mayoral race, scrutinizing the candidacy of Zohran Mamdani, a self-described democratic socialist. They dissect the New York Times’ attempt to downplay his ideology and warn that his proposed policies—like government-run grocery stores—could devastate the city’s economy and infrastructure. The hosts debate whether Mamdani is a true ideologue or simply an inexperienced politician who may struggle to implement his radical agenda. The segment also includes reflections on past NYC mayors like Rudy Giuliani, Michael Bloomberg, and Bill de Blasio, comparing their leadership styles and impact on crime. Clay and Buck argue that Bloomberg’s business acumen and Giuliani’s law enforcement background made them effective leaders, while de Blasio’s progressive policies contributed to the city’s decline. Doesn't Have to be This Way Clay and Buck scrutinize Chicago’s violent crime epidemic, where Governor JB Pritzker dodges questions about the city’s safety following a weekend of 54 shootings and 7 deaths. Clay and Buck argue that President Trump’s deployment of the National Guard in Washington D.C. has proven effective, and they challenge Democrats to explain their resistance to similar measures in cities like Memphis, St. Louis, and New Orleans. The hosts dissect Mayor Brandon Johnson’s inflammatory rhetoric, including his call for citizens to “defend the land” against Trump’s law enforcement efforts. Clay and Buck criticize this as dangerous and historically inaccurate, noting that Chicago was not built by slaves or indigenous people, and that invoking such narratives undermines real solutions to crime. They emphasize the psychological deterrent effect of visible law enforcement and the success of plainclothes policing units in cities like New York. The conversation shifts to the broader political implications of Trump’s crime-fighting strategy, highlighting how Democrats are increasingly boxed into defending the indefensible. Clay and Buck argue that Trump’s actions are saving lives, even if those lives can’t be individually identified, and they call out the hypocrisy of Democrats who welcomed National Guard troops during COVID but now oppose them for public safety.

On Monday's Mark Levin Show, we bring you the best of on Labor Day! Critics of President Trump's executive order on American flag burning have not read it and are misrepresenting it, as the order creates no new laws or offenses. It does not run counter to the 1989 5-4 Supreme Court decision in Texas v. Johnson. Unsurprisingly, most of the media jumped the gun and their favorite NeverTrumpers (among others) joined in the chorus, accusing the president of lawlessness, etc. Also, France's Emmanuel Macron is a disgusting quisling. He thinks it's still Vichy France, where he'd be more comfortable. Kudos to our Ambassador to France, Charles Kushner for calling out antisemitism in France. Also, CNN and similar media are biased against Supreme Court conservatives like Justices Gorsuch, Kavanaugh, and Alito, who are accused of being "out of control" while upholding the Constitution in rulings favoring the Trump administration on issues like immigration and spending and DEI. Afterward, On Power explains that negative power, particularly its soft form, exists in both open and closed societies and is increasingly prevalent in democracies like America. It emphasizes that a universal order—encompassing nature, morality, values, and beliefs—precedes, transcends, and outlasts all governments, which are temporary human constructs imposing limits on individuals. Humans are not inherently subjects of rulers or governments but are governed by an unamendable supreme law. Valid governments must align with this universal order, while soft negative power persists in civil society (via laws, customs, or social contracts like Locke's) to maintain order, prevent anarchy, and protect individual liberty—even in the best governments. People vote for tyranny then when it takes hold it's too late - that's what will happen if Zohran Mamdani becomes Mayor of NYC. Later, the question media pundits keep asking: what is happening to the democrat party? What happened is that the people have learned a great deal about the Democrat Party and its ideologies over the years and they don't like it. Ideas do have consequences. Educating and reading remain crucial. Unfortunately, too many people with microphones and TV cameras have forgotten about this. Scholarship, history, philosophy still matter. They have always mattered. It's called getting back to basics. Getting back to our founding principles, beliefs, and values, and exposing those who seek to pervert, undermine, and destroy them. The Democrat Party is struggling and failing because it stands for virtually everything most Americans reject. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices
