Former US president Joe Biden's announcement on Sunday that he has been diagnosed with an aggressive form of prostate cancer paused the avalanche of damning stories about his mental acuity and cognitive fitness for office during his presidency.The leaks and pre-publicity around a new book Original Sin: President Biden's Decline, Its Cover-Up, and His Disastrous Choice to Run Again by Alex Thompson and Jake Tapper have been going on for weeks.The authors contend that Biden's decline was obvious during his tenure as president and accelerated while he was campaigning for a second term. They say the facts of the 82-year-old's health were kept secret from the wider Democratic party and the American public by a small inner circle, led by his wife, Jill.Then last weekend audio surfaced of his interview with former special counsel Robert Hur in 2023 in which Biden sounded confused, rambling and with a notably weak voice.There were public messages of support and sympathy for Biden and his family from his supporters and political rivals - even president Donald Trump - when he announced the news.But as the week has gone on, commentary has turned to speculation around the timeline of his diagnosis, reviving questions about what health issues he was dealing with while in the White House.Irish Times Washington correspondent Keith Duggan looks back a monumental week for Biden and the Democrative party.Presented by Bernice Harrison.

Here are the 3 Big things you need to know this hour— Number One— A French politician says America needs to give the Statue of Liberty back to France— and Karoline laughed about it—and pointed out the French would be speaking German with the United States— Number Two— Today is the day we are told for 80,000 pages of documents related to the assassination of John F. Kennedy to be released—more than 60 years after the killing in Dallas Texas—will there be anything important? Number Three— Democrats continue to find themselves on the very wrong side of pretty easy issues—

In this snap, bonus episode, show host Jef Szi riffs on what he is calling, 'Alpha Masculinity,' as it emerges alongside Donald Trump election to a second presidential term. In his eclectic style, Jef begins the show sharing his experience on a beautiful November night in San Francisco and going to see Leif Vollebekk in concert with his wife. Contrasting that with the pre-show UFC experience, Jef leans into evolution, mating strategies, and ironies that are unfolding as the majority of American Voters embrace the "big man" attitude and style of Donald Trump. With curiosity, critique, and invitation, Jef invites us to dive into the instinctual draw toward a renewed Alpha Masculinity with nuance.Calling on the stories from his late friend, Brent MacKinnon during the turmoil of the Vietnam War as well as the gift of artistry Leif demonstrated in his show, Jef calls us forward into this conversation using all the sensibilities to illuminate the deep need to reconcile ourselves with this force and to find our way with the complexities it presents.
Trump won the presidency, but down ballot votes didn't always follow party. How can we understand the conflicting and diverging values expressed in the 2024 election?
It's one of the great conundrums of modern American politics. Time and again, voters elect politicians who espouse positions that are contrary to what the majority of the public believes. The list of such issues is a long one: climate change, gun violence, wages, tax fairness, health care. And another classic example of this […]

As the US presidential election approaches, Donald Trump attempts to drum up support from Arab-American voters in Michigan, while Kamala Harris holds rallies in Wisconsin. Also: can avatars help people with psychosis?
With just 11 days to go until the US election, Sky's dedicated team of correspondents goes on the road to gauge what voters in key swing states make of the choice for president. Mark Stone is in Michigan, where Arab-American voters are a key demographic seemingly swinging towards Trump. Some in the community feel abandoned by the Democrats because of their approach to Gaza, and as the consequence of a gradual leftward creep by the party away from socially conservative values. And what happens when you have a candidate who fought to overturn the result of the last US election, who is already claiming his opponents are cheating at this one, and whose supporters are challenging the process through the courts? Our correspondent James Matthews is in Atlanta, Georgia, to find out. Plus, Martha Kelner looks at why billionaire Elon Musk is awarding some registered voters a million dollars.

In the final weeks before election day, candidates are scrambling to win over groups of voters who could tip the results. American voters have shifted significantly in recent decades with changes in the racial and ethnic composition of the electorate and their education level. In California, more than 2 million Latinos and more than 750,000 people of Asian descent became eligible to vote between 2012 and 2022. Meanwhile, white voters declined by more than 1 million. In other parts of the country, there are now more voters with college degrees than without. Those shifts could have major implications for elections. We'll talk about voter trends at the local, state and national level and what it could all mean. Guests: Mindy Romero, founder and director, Center for Inclusive Democracy Jason McDaniel, associate professor of political science, San Francisco State University Jocelyn Kiley, senior associate director of research, Pew Research Center
On today's Closer Look with Rose Scott, we continue our series on different voter blocs.Over the past 20 years, Asian Americans have been the fastest-growing group of eligible voters in the United States. In the past four years alone, they've added 2 million eligible voters. Among this diverse group are diverse political opinions. Show host Rose Scott speaks with Asian Americans representing advocacy groups and both major political parties. We'll also speak with a panel of Asian American voters about what matters most to them this election cycle. Guests Include: Christine Chen, the executive director and co-founder of Asian and Pacific Islander American Vote Victoria Huynh, the founder and chief community organizer for Georgia AAPI HubRajpal Sagoo, the chairperson of the Cherokee County Republican Coalition Theresa Shen, a member of the Georgia Chinese-American Republicans Kannan Udayarajan, the chairperson for Forsyth County Democrats Jennifer Lee, the policy director for Asian Americans Advancing JusticeMurtaza Khwaja, the executive director of Asian Americans Advancing Justice Jeremy Thao, an Atlanta-area filmmaker and entrepreneur Jadelynn Zhang, a PhD Student in the Department of Sociology at Emory University See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

There are nearly 6.8 million American Indian and Alaskan Natives living in the United States. Of those, approximately 4.7 million are eligible to vote.
The Indian Citizenship Act of 1924 should have given Native Americans the right to vote, but in New Mexico and other states it took decades more to materialize, and some of the same challenges to Natives voting are still present today. On the next Let's Talk New Mexico we'll discuss barriers to Natives voting and the political power their votes represent.

Why do American voters support divisive misinformation? That's the question driving our guests' latest research, and the focus of today's episode.Minjae Kim and Ezra Zuckerman Sivan are experts in sociology, and organizational behavior. In this episode, they dive into their latest collaboration, exploring moral flexibility and why some voters are drawn to divisive misinformation. Their new study, When Truth Trumps Facts: Studies on Partisan Moral Flexibility in American Politics, will be published in the American Journal of Sociology.Minjae is an Assistant Professor of Management at Rice Business and Ezra is the Alvin J. Siteman Professor of Strategy and Entrepreneurship at MIT Sloan. Together, they sit down with host Maya Pomroy '22 to unpack their findings. Listen as they discuss how personal truths can override objective facts and why misinformation often resonates so strongly with voters.Episode Guide: 01:40 Motivation to Pursue this Study on Moral Flexibility02:30 The Puzzle of Authenticity05:36 Insights From Their First Study Together11:43 Current Study Overview16:06 Truth vs. Fact34:30 Historical Context and Examples39:31 Minjae's Future Research Owl Have You Know is a production of Rice Business and is produced by University FM.Episode Quotes:A hope for more reflective politics38:42 [Maya]: What are your hopes of what your study... how it will help our society?38:49 [Ezra Zuckerman Sivan]: I hope it gets at least some self-reflection, that people are realizing that they're using different standards for themselves and for others. And actually, one of the things I hope is, like, this is just the beginning research for us. We hopefully have a lot of people build on our research. I see a lot of areas of application where people are using different standards in different ways. You can see it, I would say, in a lot of the tumult since October 7th on our campuses. People are using very different standards on each side of the divide, again holding the other side to much higher standards than they're holding themselves to in the statements that they're making. And so, my hope is that, somehow, we get to be a little more reflective about these things and apply those lessons and maybe take the temperature down in our politics because of that.On The Authentic Appeal of the Lying Demagogue06:37 [Minjae Kim]: I think one of the key things that we really wanted to focus on was that we started with a premise that not only do politicians spread misinformation on all sides of the spectrum, but also, people often, you know, recognize the possibility, very salient possibility, that politicians lie very often.So, there is literature in the political science talking about how it is actually very hard for politicians to appear authentic. So, one of the key things that we try to get at in that paper with the authentic appeal of the lying demagogue was essentially to identify a specific type of misinformation or specific type of lies that, you know, we label as lying demagoguery that would help that politician appear more authentic versus not under certain kinds of conditions.Economics is always shared goal06:37 [Minjae Kim]: Even if there is some kind of separation between the facts and truth that people recognize as, that if they can agree what, kind of, the goal that they should seek out for, then, you know, there might be... this divide might not necessarily be a hurdle. That said, we don't know if it is easier to arrive in the same goal or if it is easier to arrive at the same facts. We don't really know which one is easier. So, the prescription would have to depend a little bit on that. But, you know, the economic goal might be, kind of, one of them, so it could be, but yeah. 33:16 [Maya]: Economics is always a shared goal, you know. Like, let's bring it back to business. And that's true. It's the quality of life. It's the quality of life that you have.Despite divisions, American economy shows potential for growth30:15 [Ezra Zuckerman Sivan]: The American economy, is a place where Americans of all types meet each other, and do business with each other, do all kinds of creative, exciting things together. And it is quite robust. Now, it has challenges. But if you look at the state of the American economy, especially compared to, to the rest of the world, American economy is doing fantastically well. Now, that doesn't mean it doesn't have troubles. And now, I'm going to get into trouble a little bit because, [30:44] I think both on right and left, people are complaining about the economy. You ask most economists, you ask most business school professors, people seem to be complaining about the economy more than they should. So, we're back to a little bit of the, you know, gap between some kind of sense of truth and facts. And also, there are people who are really clearly suffering in this economy. But the American economy, and there was a great jobs report that came out just now, like, shows you that Americans, even despite our divide and our different narratives, at least about politics, can do great things together. And so, maybe that's a source of hope.Show Links: When Truth Trumps Facts: Studies on Partisan Moral Flexibility in American Politics | American Journal of SociologyFlexible morals: A key reason American voters support divisive misinformation | MIT SloanThe Authentic Appeal of the Lying Demagogue: Proclaiming the Deeper Truth about Political Illegitimacy - Oliver Hahl, Minjae Kim, Ezra W.

On this week's episode of The Van Maren Show, Jonathon discusses the challenges of reaching the average voter with a pro-life message ahead of the upcoming November elections. Jonathon analyzes why pro-lifers have not been successful in effectively spreading their message, comparing the American situation to what happened in Ireland in 2018. Pro-lifers face an uphill battle given the enormous resources of the abortion industry and the complete support it receives from the mainstream media. But by laying out the reality of the situation, Jonathon is hoping to spur the pro-life movement into adopting winning strategies that transform our culture into one which defends the sanctity of life.LSNTV Apple Store: https://apps.apple.com/us/app/lsntv/id6469105564LSNTV Google Play: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.lifesitenews.app****SHOP ALL YOUR FUN AND FAVORITE LIFESITE MERCH! https://shop.lifesitenews.com/+++Connect with John-Henry Westen and all of LifeSiteNews on social media:LifeSite: https://linktr.ee/lifesitenewsJohn-Henry Westen: https://linktr.ee/jhwesten Hosted on Acast.

The presidential election is right around the corner and Michigan is going to play a crucial role in the election results. For MSU Today's 2024 Election Spotlight Series, I'm talking with MSU researchers and experts who can discuss all things elections and politics. Each guest brings a unique perspective on research and work they are doing that relates to the 2024 election. To kickoff this series, I'm joined by Dante Chinni, director of the American Communities Project (ACP) at Michigan State University's School of Journalism. Chinni talks about the ACP and its mission, and he describes the ACP's 2023 survey that found a great deal of agreement on policy issues in the 15 community types they examined. It's the culture issues that tend to divide us. Conversation Highlights: (0:45) – What's your background? (1:12) – What attracted you back to MSU? (2:01) - What are your research interests? (2:50) - What are all the ways you're engaged with the election? (3:25) - Tell us what the American Communities Project is and does? (5:21) - You conducted surveys last year finding agreement among Americans on issues like abortion and the economy. How did you conduct the survey? Were you surprised by these findings? (11:17) - There is disagreement among Americans on cultural issues. Why are people divided on these issues in particular? How do we get past it? Are you hopeful? (12:55) - The ACP categories counties into 15 different categories to better understand how America can be so different. Describe some of them and when it comes to polarization, are we as divided as some think? Are there ways we can bridge this gap? (17:11) - It's cool you're engaging J-school students with ACP. Tell us how MSU student journalists are reporting on the election. (18:30) – What are your thoughts on the state and future of journalism? (21:09) - What other trends are you watching for as we approach the election? Listen to “MSU Today with Russ White” on the radio and through Spotify, Apple Podcasts, and wherever you get your shows.

On Sunday, President Joe Biden announced he would not be running for re-election, and would instead endorse Vice President Kamala Harris. A lot of the news coverage in the last twenty four hours has focused on how party officials from both sides of the aisle are considering the President's decision to step down from race. But those aren't the people who will ultimately be deciding the outcome of this race in November. The question is: will an influx in Democratic Party fundraising, institutional support – as well as a new narrative – be enough to engage the average American voter? Or does the seeming momentum of the Republican Party sweep former President Tump back into office? Guest: Eric Liu: CEO and co-founder of Citizen University, a cross-partisan non-profit dedicated to reviving civic engagement. He's also a former foreign policy speech writer and deputy domestic policy advisor under the Clinton Administration. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
America's Founders didn't create a democracy; yet here we are with "our democracy." John Adams explicitly said: "Remember, democracy never lasts long...There never was a democracy yet that did not commit suicide." American citizens are finding out that anyone who crosses the border can vote. Proof of citizenship not required. Is America fulfilling the very point that John Adams was making?

Ignore the political experts and all the political smart people who tell us that the American people only care about the economy, health care, the border, etc. bullshit. There is something they care about even more. And thank god they do.
In this episode, we explore Georgia's historic political shift in 2020 when the state narrowly elected Joe Biden, marking the first Democratic presidential win since 1992. Asian voters were a big part of that result, as voter registration and participation surged from 2016 to 2020, leading the turnout increase. Our focus today is on Indian-American voters in Georgia, a significant yet often overlooked group in political discussions. Apart from their voting power, Indian-Americans are becoming more prominent in elections, evidenced by the popularity of Vivek Ramaswamy and Nikki Haley in recent primaries. We also introduce an Indian-American Gen Z candidate, Ashwin Ramaswami, running for State Senate in District 48, showcasing the new wave of political engagement.
