Lee Smith of The Players has long been a partner for the Child Cancer Fund. But things got personal when their PGA co-worker Michela's fantasy joined the peditric cancer fight. You can join the fight with them, by donating at CHILDCANCERFUND.ORG, texting CMG to 707070, or calling 855-916-2500.

FRI – Clark reminds us – whether you’re making NFL money or 9-to-5 money, scammers are out to get everyone’s money!

Alberto Destarac is a visionary - an ironic description, perhaps, given that he is blind. He is the first blind person to graduate from the US Naval Academy (2023), and in this interview he shares his experience transitioning from midshipman to entrepreneur, as blindness revealed a new career path.

Annette Taddeo - Dem. candidate for Florida CFO (vs Rep. Blaise Ingoglia, incumbent), joins JMN to discuss primary results, and key issues she is campaigning on in her bid to be the Florida CFO, including data center actual costs, state resource auditing (like costs for Alligator Alcatraz), and resident affordability issues (housing, groceries, etc.).

Former SC Rep. Joe Cunningham – a member of the Pharmaceutical Reform Alliance - is advocating “most favored nation” legislation for US prescription prices. Affordability is a key modern issue, particularly for prescriptions, and using GLP-1’s as an example Americans are paying way more than most other countries. An XO from the President can be nullified – legislated savings are harder to deny, in this age of Big Pharma record profits.

In modern politics, it seems as if scandals are essential to get awareness for candidate brands, whether it be about questionable ethics, questionable decisions, or sexual misconduct. Case in point -- California held a special runoff election to replace embattled former lawmaker Eric Swalwell, who resigned following allegations of sexual misconduct. FOX News's Tonya Powers is following the results.

State & Local Gov't Reporter Jake Stofan joins JMN with analysis of the Florida primaries, and tensions within the Florida Democratic Paty. Angie Nixon's victory over Alexander Vindman raises a number of questions -- will the FDP support a Democratic Socialist? While Nixon affiliated herslf with DSA, they have not officially reciprocated an endorsement. Is the Florida left shifting further left with Nixon? And this is the first time both candidates are vying for a federal office. Republican Senate incumbent Ashley Moody was appointed, not elected; the GOP has a lot of party money to fund her campaign ... but so did Vindman. This will be an interesting election.

Kiev is under fire, as a Russian attack of drones and missiles has resulted in at least 16 deaths and multiple buldings damaged, including military resources, warehouses, and civilian aid properties. In other Russia/Ukraine news, President Zelenskyy's office is probed for corruption as his now-fired defense minister demands elections in war-torn Ukraine. Where do things stand? Meanwhile, President Trump has reduced current military drills with ally South Korea, out of concern that North Korean leadership calls the drills "hostile acts."
