Is Everything Racist?
The term “racism” has been thrown around a lot recently. Is there anything—from physical fitness and professionalism to clean pantries and even pumpkin spice lattes—that isn’t racist? @aldobuttazzoni visits Cal State Northridge to find out what students think about their everyday behaviors being labeled as “racist.”

RaeLynn: Getting Married Was My Boldest Act of Rebellion
An accomplished singer and songwriter, RaeLynn was told at an early age to prioritize career over family. In an act of rebellion, she got married at age 21 and started a family soon after. She now uses her influence to counter the toxic mom culture prevalent in our society. Despite what culture and the media tell you, children don’t hinder success; they only add value to our lives.

Left vs. Right: Freedom
Politicians on both the left and the right say their side values freedom more than those across the aisle. But how can this be? Because the left and the right have different definitions of “freedom.” @realcjpearson breaks down these differences and explains both sides of the argument.

Big Business & Big Brother
We are on the brink of the biggest merger in history. If we don’t stop it, our constitutional rights could become a relic of the past. Philip Hamburger, Professor of Law at Columbia University and CEO of the New Civil Liberties Alliance, explains.

Script:
We’re witnessing the biggest merger in history. Big government and big business are getting together to tell us what to do, what to say, and what to think. And the only way they can do it is to work around the Constitution.
Sometimes this alignment is voluntary, sometimes not. Either way, it portends a profound change in the way we live—and not for the better.
An early hint of this merger occurred in 2013. That’s when the Obama Administration implemented what it called “Operation Choke Point.” The idea was to choke off a type of business—pay day lending—that the administration didn’t like but couldn’t get Congress to ban.
Pay day lenders make small, short-term loans at high interest rates. Their customers are usually in need of quick cash—for example, to pay a bill that’s due before the next paycheck arrives. This is entirely legal. Nonetheless, the Obama administration pressured banks not to process credit-card payments to these businesses or give them loans.
Banks are heavily regulated and very susceptible to government pressure. All the administration had to do was apply pressure to two banks—Four Oaks Bank in North Carolina and CommerceWest in California. Soon, others took the hint and stopped doing business with payday lenders.
State governments have taken a cue from the federal government. In 2018, New York State warned banks and insurance companies about “reputational risk” in doing business with the National Rifle Association—thereby denying it financial services.
Recently, the federal government has been pressuring social media platforms to censor speech. As we learned from the Twitter files and recent litigation, government agencies such as the FBI, Homeland Security, and the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention have been telling the platforms what opinions they want suppressed.
The platforms have become partners with the government in suppressing freedom of speech. They voluntarily cooperate when their own views align with those of government. And when they don’t cooperate, the government pressures them to conform.
We’ve seen this before.
A foundation of fascism is the alliance of big business with government to control society, even to mold private opinion. Government privileges big business and in exchange expects its support.

What's Wrong with Marijuana?
Millions of Americans believe marijuana relieves pain, reduces anxiety, improves your mood, and has no side effects. Are they right? Dr. Drew Pinsky, physician, addiction medicine specialist, and media personality, answers this question.

Script:
Here’s a medical miracle for you: a drug that relieves pain, reduces anxiety, improves your mood, and has no side effects.
Too good to be true? Well, millions of Americans believe that drug is marijuana.
Are they right?
I’m a physician, board-certified internist, and addiction medicine specialist. I’ve treated thousands of people whose addictions to opiates, alcohol, and other drugs were wrecking their relationships, their careers, and their lives. And I’m telling you marijuana can be both harmful and addictive, just like many other substances.
What I’ve seen firsthand for twenty years is now becoming obvious to other doctors and researchers: increased use of marijuana is leading to increased psychosis, bipolar mania, and even spontaneous vomiting, especially in adolescents and young adults. The younger the user, the less developed their brain, the more harmful the drug.
I hate to burst your bubble, but that is the science.
A 2022 Gallup survey found 30% of Americans between 18 and 34 use marijuana. When scientists at the University of Michigan asked young adults between 19 and 30 if they’d used it within the past month, 29% said yes in 2021, compared to 21% in 2016 and 17% in 2011.
Daily marijuana use across all ages nearly doubled from 6% in 2011 to 11% in 2021. That translates into over 13 million Americans, compared with 5 million in the decade before.
There is no such thing as a “bad” drug. They are just molecules that affect the human physiology. Most Americans use some form of a recreational substance. But ignoring or denying potential adverse effects creates the potential for serious harm. There is no free lunch with mother nature so there are always side effects. My goal here is not to shame or scare anyone, but to raise awareness so you can make informed decisions.
Speaking of that, keep in mind that marijuana has gone corporate. According to Forbes, legal marijuana is now a 20 billion dollar industry and growing. There’s a lot of vested interest in making sure you don’t hear the bad news.
But there are risks. And the more you use, and the higher the concentrations, the more the risk.
Of course, most people who use marijuana won’t have a psychotic break, develop bipolar disorder, or become schizophrenic—just as most people who drink don’t develop alcoholic liver disease or alcohol dementia.
Some individuals—and not a small number—will have a significant reaction to marijuana. And there is no way to know in advance. You won’t know until it happens. And then it might be too late.
It wasn’t always like this. The marijuana people use today is not the weed of my generation. It hasn’t been for at least two decades.
What changed?
The answer is found in three letters: THC
THC or tetrahydrocannabinol, is the main psychoactive—or mind-altering—component of cannabis; it’s what gets you high.

Watch the full episode: https://l.prageru.com/3sWEbZO
As wars in Israel and Ukraine rage on, some Americans are advocating that we take care of our own problems before involving ourselves in foreign affairs. However, if we hold ourselves to that standard, we will never help any other country because there will always be problems at home. Is that really how America should lead the world?
