Starting on November 9, 1938, the Nazis orchestrated a wave of nationwide violence targeting Jewish communities. Rioters destroyed synagogues, attacked and looted Jewish shops, and ambushed people in their homes. Around 30,000 men were arrested and sent to concentration camps merely for being Jewish. Jews were left bereft, desperate to escape Nazi Germany by any means possible.
After the initial outrage, world attention faded and the Nazis carried out even greater horrors. Eighty-five years after the “Night of Broken Glass,” watch this discussion to understand this pivotal moment on the path to mass murder.

Mission Statement
Investigate & expose corruption, dishonesty, self-dealing, waste, fraud, and other misconduct in both public and private institutions in order to achieve a more ethical & transparent society.
Core Values
MORAL COURAGE - Courage is the virtue that sustains all others. We choose to overcome our fears.
WE ARE ALL LEADERS - Turning people into leaders. Completed staff work. Ownership.
COLLABORATION - Best not to work in silos. No one individual is as smart as all of us.
RESILIENCE - Persistence and determination alone are omnipotent. Never, ever, ever give up. We don't let mistakes or setbacks discourage us. Pursue perfection, knowing full well you will never attain it.
MISSION DRIVEN - The best people are motivated by purpose. We are passionate and truly believe in our cause. We must be externally focused, not internally focused.
MAKE THE STATUS QUO DO THE IMPOSSIBLE - We move mountains. Failure is not an option. We do whatever it takes.
THE TIP OF THE SPEAR - We are a loss leader. We do not shy away from conflict or litigation.
Ethical Values
Rule #1 – Truth is paramount. Our reporting is fact based with clear and irrefutable video and audio content. Truth is paramount. We never deceive our audience. We do not distort the facts or the context. We do not “selectively edit.”
Rule #2 – We do not break the law. We maintain one-party consent when recording someone is inherently moral and ethical. We never record when there is zero-party consent. In areas where we are required to have consent from all parties, we seek legal guidance regarding the expectation of privacy’s impact on our right to record.
Rule #3 – We adhere to the 1st Amendment rights of others. During our investigations we do not disrupt the peace. We do not infringe on the 1st Amendment rights of others.
Rule #4 – The Zekman Test. The undercover investigations we pursue are judged by us to be of “vital public interest” and “profound importance.” The Zekman Test is our baseline. Undercover investigative reporting is necessary because, “...there’s no other way to get the story...” Whereas the Society of Professional Journalists allows for undercover techniques, if undercover techniques are necessary to expose issues of vital public importance; we believe they are not only allowed but required.
Rule #5 – We Protect the Innocent When Possible - Embarrassing private details are not to be investigated. We stay away from irrelevant embarrassingly intimate details about private citizens personal lives. We look for individual wrong-doing and judge its public importance. The irrelevant religious or sexual dispositions of our targets are not to be investigated.
Rule #6 – Transparency. Our methods & tactics must be reasonable and defensible. We use the “Twelve Jurors on Our Shoulder” rule. The work has to be done with such a degree of integrity that it can withstand scrutiny in both law & ethics. We are comfortable with transparency. We must be willing to be ready to disclose our methods upon publication.
Rule #7 – Verifying and Corroborate Stories – Evaluate impact on third parties and Newsworthiness of Statements Alone.We consistently consider the probable truth or falsity of statements, examine any reasons to doubt the veracity of underlying assertions and whether the assertions are newsworthy. When possible, we will confirm with our subjects that their statements captured on video are accurate & truthful. At the very least, we will give our subjects an opportunity to elaborate and/or respond. In all matters, we rely on the 1st Amendment to protect our ability to publish newsworthy items after our internal deliberations. On whether there is an obligation to ensure the veracity of statements made on video, 1.) consider whether the remarks may potentially impact an innocent third party. (Factors in support of releasing the content) and 2.)The Newsworthiness of the statement alone by itself. (Factors against releasing the content).
Rule #8 – Raw Video. In certain circumstances we may release the “raw” video to the press and or the public. But as a rule, we do not.
Rule #9 – Subject Anonymity. We investigate & question sources before promising anonymity. Once we confirm, we will do everything in our power to protect the identity of our confidential sources.
Rule #10 – Being Accountable. Admit mistakes & correct them promptly.
Rule #11 – We do not manufacture content. We do not put words in our investigative subjects' mouths. We do not lead the horse to water. Our purpose is to elicit truth.
Rule #12 – With Great Power comes Great Responsibility.
,1,Largest royal palaces in the world! These massive palaces are the biggest palaces that aren't castles.

Number 12. Palace of Versailles
A historical monument and UNESCO World Heritage site, the Palace of Versailles is renown for its beauty, size, and cultural importance. It began as the royal quarters of French royalty with Louis XIV in 1682 and was used as such until the reign of Louis XVI and the French Revolution in 1789. The Palace of Versailles measures 679,000 square feet in area, but the whole of the palace grounds holds the title of largest royal domain in the world at 2,014 acres! Within its walls lie a number of famous attractions such as the Royal Opera and the ceremonial Hall of Mirrors. Over 7 million visitors are drawn to the Palace of Versailles each year, making it the second most popular attraction in France after the Louvre.
Number 10. Buckingham Palace
With 775 rooms, the largest private garden in London covering 40 acres of surrounding space, and and a square footage of 828,000, Buckingham Palace is both one of the most impressive and one of the most famous palaces in the world. This royal residence was first built in 1703 as a townhouse for the Duke of Buckingham, but in 1761 King George III purchased the home for his wife, Queen Charlotte, and it henceforth was known as The Queen's House. But as the building expanded in the early 19th century, it grew to be less of a townhouse and more of a palace with the addition of three wings and a central courtyard. When Queen Victoria rose to power in 1837, Buckingham Palace became the official home to the British monarchy and continues to serve as a royal headquarters for the United Kingdom in modern times.
Number 5. Forbidden City
Though the entirety of the Forbidden City's palace complex equates to over 7.75 million square feet, making it the largest palace complex in the world, the actual main structure fills an area of just 1.61 million square feet. Serving as China's imperial palace from 1420 to 1912, this great building was the home of many emperors, their families, and their royal courts from the reign of the Ming dynasty until the end of the Qing dynasty. For just under 500 years the Forbidden City was the political center of the Chinese government, but has been under the control of the Palace Museum since 1925 with much of the artifacts from prior residing dynasties making up a majority of their exhibits. Over sixteen million people now visit this historically sacred World Heritage Site annually, and it remains one of the most culturally significant structures in all of China.
,1,In a brazen confession, Davis explains that he defies the stated goals of DEI – to give every family an equal chance of admission – because in practice, he has blocked “hundreds” of families from admission due to their differences in perspective on the value of DEI.
Journalist: “How many people have you deterred away from the school because they weren't aligned with DEI?”
Quincy Davis, DEI Director, Mount Tamalpais, CA: “It’s in the hundreds.”
