How to Lose Loudly: What the Left can Learn from the NRA

Keen On Democracy

One of the most painful lessons of the Kirk assassination is that conservatives are running rings around progressives in political mobilization - especially of young Americans. So how to make the left relevant in America again? For the philosopher Michael Brownstein, co-author of Somebody Should Do Something, progressives need to learn to lose both cleverly and loudly. And they can learn from NRA on this. Despite holding positions unpopular with most Americans, Brownstein acknowledges that the NRA created a powerful social identity around gun ownership and leveraged it for decades of legislative victories through masterful political strategy and organization. Drawing from social science research on collective action, Brownstein argues that highly theatrical defeats—like the recent Texas Democrats' walkout or John Lewis' bloody fate on the Edmund Pettus Bridge in 1965—can catalyze change by forcing opponents into untenable positions. The key isn't winning every battle, but making individual actions visible enough to shift social norms and inspire others, especially the young, to join the cause. So lose often and lose loudly, Brownstein says. It's a winning strategy. 1. Individual Actions Are Social Signals, Not Just Drops in the Bucket When you install solar panels or drive an electric car, the impact isn't just environmental—it's social. Research shows your neighbors are far more likely to adopt these behaviors after seeing you do it. Stop calculating carbon molecules; start thinking about social influence.2. The “Do-Gooder's Dilemma” Is a Corporate Invention From “jaywalking” (coined by 1920s car companies) to “personal carbon footprints” (popularized by BP), industries have systematically shifted responsibility for systemic problems onto individuals. Recognizing this manipulation is the first step to effective collective action.3. Losing Loudly Can Be More Powerful Than Winning Quietly The Texas Democrats knew they'd lose their walkout fight. John Lewis knew he'd be beaten at Selma. But theatrical defeats that force opponents to reveal their brutality or absurdity can shift public opinion more effectively than quiet procedural victories.4. Study Your Enemies' Playbook The NRA succeeded for decades despite holding unpopular positions by creating a powerful social identity around gun ownership. Progressives should learn from these organizing tactics rather than dismissing them.5. Beware the “Anti-Incrementalism Bias” Revolutionary change like Prohibition often fails because it lacks public buy-in. Lasting progress—like Social Security—comes from incremental victories that build over time. Don't let perfect be the enemy of good.Keen On America is a reader-supported publication.

In this episode of First Light, we dive into the journey of building and rebuilding a thriving law firm, facing both moments of triumph and near collapse. The conversation explores what it takes to go from working solo out of a home office to leading a firm of more than one hundred people, all while navigating the financial and emotional challenges of entrepreneurship. Key Takeaways Growth is rarely linear—setbacks can become pivotal turning points.Financial crunches are part of building a business; resilience and decisive action are critical.Efficiency and velocity in operations often determine whether a firm thrives or stalls.Core values and personal discipline serve as anchors in both business and life.Scaling back isn't failure—it can be the reset needed to regain momentum.Building a reputation and referral network takes time, trust, and consistency.True success comes from not just winning cases but also giving back to the community. Listeners will hear candid reflections on surviving financial crunches, scaling back in order to grow stronger, and how discipline, values, and perspective shape long-term success. From handling massive cases like BP's refinery explosion and the Deepwater Horizon spill to learning how to balance health, business, and family, this story is about grit, resilience, and reinvention.

How Many House Seats Could Flip as a Result of Redistricting Efforts Around the Country?

On the Ballot

On this episode: Several states are moving to redraw their congressional maps ahead of the 2026 midterms, reviving a practice that has happened before but rarely on this scale. Texas has already acted, with Republicans pushing through a new map that could net them multiple House seats. In response, Democrats in California are advancing a ballot measure that would suspend the state's independent commission and open the door to a more favorable map of their own. As a result, nearly a dozen states are engaged in redistricting efforts of their own, with huge implications not just for the balance of power in the House — but the Americans who live in the districts in question. To break down what's happening and why it matters, Erin Covey — Editor of U.S. House coverage at the Cook Political Report with Amy Walter — explains the political strategies at play and the legal uncertainties that surround them. She walks through the domino effect of Texas's decision, how California, Missouri, Ohio, and Utah fit into the bigger picture, and why deadlines in other states are quickly closing in.At the same time, a looming Supreme Court case from Louisiana could reshape the legal boundaries for redistricting nationwide.The case revisits Section 2 of the Voting Rights Act and carries major implications for how states consider race when drawing districts — with potential ripple effects across the South and beyond.Read Erin Covey's analysis for The Cook Political Report: https://www.cookpolitical.com/analysis/house/redistricting/2025-2026-redistricting-tracker-how-many-seats-could-flip-0 Learn more about the latest redistricting efforts on our site: https://ballotpedia.org/Redistricting_ahead_of_the_2026_electionsComplete a brief 5 minute survey to review the show and share some feedback: https://forms.gle/zPxYSog5civyvEKX6 Sign up for our Newsletters: https://ballotpedia.org/Ballotpedia_Email_Updates Stream "On the Ballot" on Spotify or wherever you listen to podcasts.

Fit Mother Project Podcast number 166 introduces us to Dr. Melissa Mahan. A 59-year-old grandmother of six, higher-ed leader, and certified professional coach from San Antonio who refused to let family history dictate her future. After a routine checkup in early 2024 revealed an A1C of 6.6 with high cholesterol and blood pressure, she chose a structured, natural path over medication—and found the Fit Mother Project. What followed was a systems-driven transformation built on consistent action, community support, and faith. Within months, Melissa dropped her A1C to ~6.0, normalized her blood pressure, improved her lipid ratios, and lost ~35 pounds—largely by dialing in “protein first,” lifting consistently, and stacking simple habits like morning sunlight walks. She also learned powerful glucose-management strategies through a CGM, discovering how pairing protein/fiber (and avoiding “spike-on-a-spike” combos like soda before pizza) dramatically changed her numbers. Melissa shares the tweaks that mattered (e.g., swapping coconut milk for almond milk in shakes and adding psyllium husk), along with her mantra of the “relentless return”—not perfection, but always coming back to the next right action. She describes how Fit Mother retreats, small-group coaching, and the in-app sisterhood reinforced mindset shifts, helped her navigate menopause challenges, and kept her on track during celebration-heavy seasons. Now, just shy of 60, Melissa is training for senior-level cycling events and planning a 500-mile Camino de Santiago ride in Spain—proof that health creates possibilities. Her challenge to listeners: dare to dream, set a meaningful goal, and finish this year strong.Key Takeaways:A1C 6.6 → ~6.0; BP/lipids trending normal~35 pounds down; energy and mood up“Protein first” meals; stronger satiety, fewer cravingsCGM insights; smarter food order and pairingSkip soda-before-pizza; avoid “spike on a spike”Fiber + protein before carbs; steadier glucoseAlmond milk swap; lower sugar, cleaner shakesPsyllium add-in; soluble fiber, better fullnessMorning sunlight + 20–30 min walk stackStrength training 2–4x/week; progressive overloadPower-meter cycling; targeted endurance gainsRetreats + small groups; consistent accountabilityMenopause-aware tweaks; sleep and stress prioritized“Relentless return” mindset; progress over perfectionBig goal: 500-mile Camino; senior cycling eventsWant To Change Your Life?

In this new installment of Tea with Dr D, host James Q. Del Rosso, DO, is joined by Karan Lal, DO, to examine 3 complex cases where clinical reasoning required moving beyond conventional pathways. This episode features visually impactful case images that bring the discussion to life. The first case centers on an elderly patient on PD-L1 immunotherapy who developed erosive plaques on the head and neck. Dr Lal reviews the diagnostic challenges of atypical presentations, the limitations of standard treatments, and his decision to carefully introduce a JAK inhibitor with oncology support, illustrating the importance of balancing risks and benefits in drug-induced BP. Next, they consider a young adult male with diffuse hair loss. A biopsy confirmed androgenetic alopecia without inflammation, prompting Dr Lal to initiate low-dose oral minoxidil with finasteride. He details why combination therapy can be advantageous in younger patients, the need for counseling about shedding phases and time to response, and how to interpret prostate screening in those taking finasteride. The final case highlights a dramatic case of rhinophyma presenting as fibrotic nodules without classic inflammatory features of rosacea. Dr Lal explains his staged management of surgical debulking followed by laser resurfacing, along with the role of isotretinoin for long-term maintenance. For patients unable to pursue surgical options, he shares alternative approaches such as combining isotretinoin with neuromodulators to shrink tissue and improve appearance. Tune in to the full episode to see striking clinical images, learn how expert dermatologists navigate diagnostic uncertainty, and gain insight into creative, patient-centered strategies for challenging presentations.

Negotiating Survival: The Complex Decision-Making Required to Save Louisiana's Coast

Ten Across Conversations

The human interventions intended to make Louisiana's coastline habitable and productive over the past century have contributed to the region's most existential threats. Without redress, displaced river sediment, compromised wetlands, and land subsidence will increasingly expose the state to extreme storm surge and sea level rise.  In 2007, following the devastating impacts of Hurricanes Katrina and Rita, Louisiana adopted its Coastal Master Plan. More than 100 projects have been approved under the plan, including the $3 billion Mid Barataria Sediment Diversion. The largest project of its kind, the diversion was designed to regenerate 40 square miles of barrier wetlands by allowing the leveed river to flood the Barataria Basin. Construction began in 2023, but it was ultimately canceled by Governor Jeff Landry in July of 2025 due to financial and environmental objections.  The arc of this project, from its design through its cancellation, exemplifies how complicated and divisive collective decision-making can become in the age of climate change. Projects scaled to meet major resilience issues are rarely able to serve the conflicting priorities, values, and interests of all stakeholders equally—and trade-offs can bring conflict at every step.  The Water Institute CEO Beaux Jones and award-winning environmental journalist Boyce Upholt both return to the podcast—this time for a joint conversation about the dilemmas in Mississippi River management, conflicting interests and negotiations in coastal resilience, and what it all means for Louisiana's future.  Relevant Articles and Resources  Subscribe to receive the Southlands Magazine and newsletter here! Learn more about the 10X Convergence and attending  “'It's a tragedy': Current, former state officials spar over scuttled coastal project” (The Current LA, August 2025)   “What scrapping a $3 billion coastal project means for Louisiana's future” (The Washington Post, July 2025)  “Proponents of Mid-Barataria diversion warn against abandoning wetlands” (Louisiana Illuminator, May 2025)  Mississippi River 100 (The Water Institute)  Relevant Ten Across Conversations Podcasts  Past and Future Resilience Along the Mississippi with Boyce Upholt  Want to Understand the Future of U.S. Climate Resilience?

Prior to joining the Institute, Beaux was environmental section chief of the Louisiana Department of Justice, where he represented the state on a variety of matters ranging from environmental and coastal law to criminal and appellate law. He previously was an environmental and coastal lawyer for the firm Baldwin Haspel Burke & Mayer. Beaux also served on the BP spill litigation team with the Louisiana State Attorney General.  Boyce Upholt is the founding editor of Southlands Magazine and the author of The Great River: The Making and Unmaking of the Mississippi.

On this episode: The Supreme Court's 2025 term opens with a docket that could reshape trade, elections, civil rights, and executive power. Among the major cases: challenges to Trump-era tariffs that test the scope of presidential authority over economic policy, a Voting Rights Act dispute from Louisiana involving claims of racial gerrymandering, and a Title IX case on whether transgender students can participate in school sports. The justices will also confront questions about capital punishment and intellectual disability, the independence of federal agencies like the FTC and Federal Reserve, and the growing influence of the Court's emergency docket.Zachary Shemtob, executive editor of SCOTUSblog, helps break down the key cases to watch, the broader trends shaping the Court's work, and how this term's decisions could have lasting consequences for law, politics, and governance in the United States.Read Shemtob's analysis: https://www.scotusblog.com/author/zachary/ Learn more about the cases coming before the Supreme Court in the 2025-26 term: https://ballotpedia.org/Supreme_Court_cases,_October_term_2025-2026 Complete a brief 5 minute survey to review the show and share some feedback: https://forms.gle/zPxYSog5civyvEKX6 Sign up for our Newsletters: https://ballotpedia.org/Ballotpedia_Email_Updates Stream "On the Ballot" on Spotify or wherever you listen to podcasts.

Show Notes: Uday Turaga runs ADI Analytics, a boutique firm specializing in oil and gas, energy, and chemical industries. ADI Analytics was founded in 2009, has 20 employees, and operates globally. The firm focuses on the value chain across oil and gas, energy, and chemicals, including upstream exploration, midstream natural gas and LNG markets, downstream fuels, power utilities, and energy transition. In 2017, ADI Analytics acquired Chemical Market Resources, expanding its capabilities in the chemicals and materials spaces. Oil and Gas Projects Uday discusses various oil and gas projects, including work with large oil and gas majors like Exxon, BP, and Shell. ADI Analytics helps refining independents explore export markets in Latin America due to the US refining complex's gasoline surplus. The firm conducts feasibility studies for LNG export terminals on the US Gulf Coast, analyzing competitive positioning, technology, risks, and financing. He explains that scenario planning for an oil major focuses on long-term energy demand, and how it can be affected by the growing demand for natural gas from data centers and emerging markets globally. About ADI Analytics  Uday talks about ADI Analytics. They work with large chemical players like BASF, Dow, and SABIC, covering the entire value chain, and help them on the feedstocks conversion into key building blocks in the chemicals industries, such as olefins, aromatics, and then all the derivatives, and further down into plastics, polymers and and how those plastics and polymers end up in our lives as consumers. He explains why the chemical industry is distressed, and how the firm helps clients understand the cost competitiveness of different chemicals globally and the impact of energy transition on the industry. Projects include due diligence for private equity firms on specialty chemical and materials markets and mapping the impact of energy transition on supply chains. Data Center Growth in the US Uday provides an overview of the data center landscape, noting the significant growth in data center capacity in the US Hyperscalers are building larger data centers, often in non-traditional locations like Texas, Oklahoma, and Louisiana, driven by the need for secure energy and power. He explains how large the demand for electricity from data centers is with hyperscalers requiring up to a gigawatt of power, which is challenging to secure. Energy needs between households and data centers are compared to give an example of the scale needed. However, the process of adding new power generation capacity to the grid is slow, with interconnection queues taking multiple years, leading to delays in meeting data center power needs. Energy Sources and Strategies for Data Centers  Hyperscalers are pursuing various strategies to secure power, including building data centers in non-preferred locations, partnering with utilities, and investing in early-stage technologies like geothermal and small modular nuclear reactors. Uday discusses the challenges of securing power for data centers, including the need for significant new power generation capacity and the difficulties in connecting to the grid. The conversation highlights the importance of low-carbon energy sources for data centers, with interest in geothermal, nuclear, and hydrogen. ADI Analytics is involved in projects helping tech companies identify sources of low-carbon energy and exploring opportunities for oil and gas majors in the power generation space. Geothermal Energy and Small Modular Nuclear Reactors Uday explains the potential of geothermal energy, including traditional hydrothermal resources and advanced geothermal systems (EGS). EGS involves drilling deep into the Earth's surface to extract heat, but the technology is still in development and faces challenges like high costs and engineering complexities. Small modular nuclear reactors (SMRs) are gaining interest due to growing electricity demand from data centers and industrial electrification. The conversation covers the regulatory and permitting challenges for SMRs, the need for innovation in nuclear power, and the potential for these technologies to address energy needs. Politics and Policy on Energy Projects The conversation turns to the impact of political and policy decisions on energy projects, including the opposition to renewable energy projects and support for nuclear power. Uday highlights the need for a balanced energy policy that supports all forms of energy, recognizing the unique advantages and challenges of each technology. He emphasizes the importance of allowing markets to determine the most competitive energy solutions, rather than imposing political or regulatory barriers. The discussion concludes with a call for a more cohesive and market-driven energy policy to meet the diverse energy needs of the future.

Die Wall Street startet verhalten in die Woche: Der S&P 500 pendelt um die Nulllinie, der Nasdaq Composite steigt um 0,2 %, der Dow verliert rund 109 Punkte (-0,2 %). Belastend wirkt das wachsende Risiko eines Regierungsstillstands: Der Senat blockierte jüngst Übergangsvorlagen beider Parteien, während die Finanzierungsfrist am 30. September ausläuft. Zuvor hatten die Indizes auf neue Rekordhochs geschlossen; der Russell 2000 markierte seinen ersten Rekordschluss seit November 2021. Rückenwind kam von der ersten Fed-Zinssenkung seit Dezember (-25 Bp). Laut CME FedWatch sind bis Jahresende zwei weitere Schritte eingepreist – die Märkte schauen daher umso stärker auf neue Makrodaten, allen voran den PCE-Preisindex. Barclays-Stratege Emmanuel Cau warnt: Bei Kursen nahe Höchstständen hängt die weitere Unterstützung eher an robusten Daten als an noch lockererer Geldpolitik. Statistisch gilt diese Woche zudem als schwächste des Jahres für den S&P 500 (Citadel). Der Goldpreis setzt derweil neue Maßstäbe: Futures erreichten mit 3.763,10 Dollar je Unze ein Rekordhoch.

On this episode: Alaska's history with ballot measures stretches back before statehood and has produced some of the country's most distinctive political experiments. In 1956, voters approved the “Tennessee Plan,” electing shadow representatives to lobby for statehood. In the 1970s, Alaskans twice approved relocating their capital out of Juneau—only to reject billion-dollar funding proposals that kept the government in place. And the Alaska Permanent Fund, established by voters in 1976, grew into an $80 billion investment fund that continues to pay annual dividends to residents.Ryan Byrne, Ballotpedia's managing editor for ballot measures, joins Geoff Pallay to discuss these milestones along with Alaska's recurring debates over its relationship with the federal government, the rise of ranked-choice voting, and the measures already slated for 2026—including campaign finance limits, psychedelic decriminalization, and another potential repeal of ranked-choice voting. Together, they highlight how Alaska's ballot measures reflect the state's independent political identity and its lasting impact on national reform debates.Learn more about Alaska: https://ballotpedia.org/Alaska_Ballot_Measures:_Historical_Ballot_Measures_Factbook Ballotpedia's Historical Ballot Measure Factbooks are out to document nearly 200 years of direct democracy in the United States — and you can find a crash course on each state coming MONTHLY — check out the series here: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLtP8LWIl9mMNHPEjGV4G235vMd8bOR1_4 Complete a brief 5 minute survey to review the show and share some feedback: https://forms.gle/zPxYSog5civyvEKX6 Sign up for our Newsletters: https://ballotpedia.org/Ballotpedia_Email_Updates Stream "On the Ballot" on Spotify or wherever you listen to podcasts.

Senate Invokes ‘Nuclear Option' to Fast Track Presidential Nominations

On the Ballot

Play Episode Listen Later Sep 16, 2025 16:18


On this episode: Senate Republicans pushed through a major change to how presidential nominees are confirmed, lowering the threshold to a simple majority and allowing many nominees to be approved in large groups rather than one by one. The change applies to more than 1,200 positions across the federal government, including ambassadors, U.S. attorneys, and military appointments. Supporters argue it will speed up confirmations and prevent backlogs that can stall an administration's agenda. Critics warn it weakens Senate oversight, sidelines the minority party, and chips away at institutional norms designed to protect bipartisan cooperation.Roll Call reporter Ryan Tarinelli joins host Norman Leahy to explain what exactly changed, why Republicans chose this moment to act, how the move fits into a decade of similar Senate rule fights, and what it might mean for the future balance of power in Congress.There have been three other uses of the nuclear option in recent years, all of which affected how the confirmation process works in the Senate. In 2013, Senate Democrats used it to change the threshold to invoke cloture on non-Supreme Court nominations from 60 votes to 50 votes. The two other recent uses of the nuclear option occurred during Trump's first administration. In 2017, Senate Republicans expanded Reid's rule change from 2013 to include Supreme Court nominations. In 2019, Senate Republicans used the process to reduce the length of post-cloture debate on nominations from 30 hours to 2 hours.Read Tarinelli's reporting: https://rollcall.com/2025/09/11/gop-changes-senate-rules-to-speed-some-confirmations/ Follow our coverage: https://news.ballotpedia.org/2025/09/12/senate-republicans-invoke-nuclear-option-to-change-nomination-rules/ Complete a brief 5 minute survey to review the show and share some feedback: https://forms.gle/zPxYSog5civyvEKX6 Sign up for our Newsletters: https://ballotpedia.org/Ballotpedia_Email_Updates Stream "On the Ballot" on Spotify or wherever you listen to podcasts.

Before it invaded Ukraine, Russia was Europe's single largest supplier of imported natural gas. But now that the European Union is considering an outright ban on all Russian gas by the end of 2027, Russia is pivoting to Asia, courting China as both a crucial new market for its gas and an important geostrategic ally. When Russian President Vladimir Putin traveled to China at the end of August, the visit produced a series of cooperation agreements. Among them: a deal between Gazprom and the China National Petroleum Corporation to advance the long-discussed Power of Siberia 2 pipeline, a massive project that, if completed, could send 50 billion cubic meters of Russian natural gas to China each year. But the announcement is short on many details, including pricing, financing, and a timeline. So what — beyond symbolism — does this deal actually deliver for both Russia and China in the short term? What prompted China to sign the agreement after years of delays? And what does it tell us about China's efforts to diversify its energy imports?  This week, Jason speaks with three scholars from the Center on Global Energy Policy (CGEP), Anne-Sophie Corbeau, Tatiana Mitrova, and Erica Downs, about the possible impacts of the Power of Siberia 2 pipeline agreement. The trio also recently co-authored a post about the PoS2 news on the CGEP website.   Anne-Sophie is a global research scholar at CGEP, where she focuses on hydrogen and natural gas. She previously worked as a senior analyst at BP and the International Energy Agency. Tatiana is a CGEP research fellow with twenty five years of experience dealing with Russian and global energy markets. Erica is a senior research scholar at CGEP, where she focuses on Chinese energy markets and geopolitics. Earlier in her career she held senior roles in the China Studies program of the CNA Corporation and at Eurasia Group. Credits: Hosted by Jason Bordoff and Bill Loveless.
