This week on Westminster Insider, host Patrick Baker takes a pint-fueled tour through some of Westminster's best-known watering holes in his bid to find out what makes the best political boozer. Reform UK leader Nigel Farage explains why the Westminster Arms is his favorite pub and why his longtime friend, Gerry Dolan, its former landlord, is behind the pub's popularity. Dolan himself recounts how lager-loving politicians would race over the road to vote at the sound of the division bell, before haring back to finish their drinks, and remembers how each of the different parties under his roof would occupy various corners of his pub like tribes.  Celia McSwaine, a former special adviser to ex-Chancellor Kwasi Kwarteng, illuminates the role of the Two Chairmen as the Treasury's designated post-Budget pub and recounts how the drinks were flowing in the immediate hours after the fateful mini-budget, before any economic meltdown had struck. Pub enthusiast James Potts, a Labour councillor in Islington and author of "What's in a London pub name?" regales Patrick with the exotic history of the Two Chairmen from the secrecy of its top room, the site of much political plotting over the years.  Andy McSmith, former Chief Political Correspondent at The Observer, joins Patrick at the Red Lion in the heart of Westminster, recounting his pivotal role in breaking the infamous story that Gordon Brown's former spin doctor Charlie Whelan had told Tony Blair that the U.K. would not be joining the Euro, from just outside the pub. Former Education and Culture Secretary Nicky Morgan returns to The Blue Boar, a discreet pub she says she hasn't been back inside since she found out there that the UK was to leave the European Union. Labour insider Sienna Rodgers, Deputy Editor of parliamentary magazine The House, meets Patrick in The Clarence, and offers her top tips on where to find Labour MPs and special advisers nowadays.  And finally Patrick visits the famous Marquis of Granby pub, where journalist and Reform supporter Tim Montgomerie and Nigel Farage's former press secretary Gawain Towler describe how the 'MOG', as it's known, is Westminster's consummate rebel pub, ideal for plotting a political insurgency during the long days of opposition.

The week began with a striking drop in the stock market, with Monday marking Wall Street's worst day in years. Some believe the selloffs are due to growing concerns over the Trump Administration's tariff plan — which they believe could lead to an international trade war and ultimately, a recession. President Trump, however, has voiced his confidence that this plan will leave the country in a richer, more independent place. Chief Political Correspondent for 'The Washington Examiner' Byron York, FOX News Radio Washington D.C. Correspondent Jared Halpern, and Democratic pollster Carly Cooperman join Bret to discuss this, Republican lawmakers fight to pass a continuing resolution by Friday, and more on today's All-Star Panel.

On December 18, 2024, Major Garrett, Chief Political Correspondent, CBS News, returned to the stage at the Economic Club of Minnesota. Major provided the audience with an interesting historical perspective by comparing two non-consecutive seated Presidents, Grover Cleveland and Donald Trump. While President Grover Cleveland's term was during the Gilded Age, President Trump's terms are both happening during the Digital Age. Both are animated by massive economic shocks and high expectations, both internally and externally. Major has vast experience and knowledge from covering 5 presidents in his career. He concluded his remarks, leaving the audience with this thought, “History tells us, sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't. One thing we know, the Gilded Age and the Digital Age have a lot to tell us about where we're headed.” The Honorable Tim Penny moderated Q & A with Major. Tim posed a few questions about Major's books, the recent presidential election, the transition, and the change in candidates from Biden to Harris. Major addressed some poignant questions from the audience. It's worth taking the time to listen to or watch the recording of this event!

In today's episode of I Am Refocused Radio, we dive into one of the most turbulent and consequential periods in American history—the violent 1872 Louisiana gubernatorial election. Joining us are CNN's Chief Political Correspondent Dana Bash and bestselling author David Fisher, who co-wrote the riveting new book America's Deadliest Election. This powerful narrative uncovers the little-known story of an election that pushed democracy to the brink, resulting in hundreds of murders, street warfare, and the rise of white supremacist violence.Through their exploration of the Colfax Massacre—the deadliest incident of racial violence during Reconstruction—and the legal and political fallout that followed, Dana and David reveal unsettling parallels to today's deeply divided political landscape.ABOUT DANA BASH AND HER BOOK AMERICA'S DEADLIEST ELECTION CNN anchor and chief political correspondent Dana Bash has written her first book, AMERICA'S DEADLIEST ELECTION: The Cautionary Tale of the Most Violent Election in American History with bestselling author David Fisher. AMERICA'S DEADLIEST ELECTION recounts the extraordinary election that led to hundreds of murders, warfare in the streets of New Orleans, two governors of Louisiana - and changed the course of politics in our country. The Election of 1872 was the most contentious in American history. After both parties complained of corruption, neither candidate would concede, two governors claimed office and chaos erupted. Rival newspapers engaged in a bitter war of words, politicians plotted to overthrow the government, and their supporters fought in the streets and attempted assassinations. The entire country watched in grim fascination as the wounds of the Civil War were ripped open and the promise of President Grant's Reconstruction faltered in the face of violent resistance and the birth of the Ku Klux Klan. In this riveting book, Dana Bash and David Fisher tell the incredible, little-known story of the election that pushed democracy to the breaking point, and sparked historic events including:The Colfax Massacre, in which at least 150 Black men were killed by white supremacists.The extraordinary train race from New York to New Orleans for control of the state government.The election of the first black Congressman from Louisiana in the face of violent resistance.The Supreme Court ruling that ended Reconstruction and became the foundation of Southern segregation, changing the American legal system for the next centuryAMERICA'S DEADLIEST ELECTION is an eye-opening warning of what's at stake and what it takes to protect our democracy. DANA BASH BIO Dana Bash is CNN's chief political correspondent and the anchor and host of Sunday morning's State of the Union, serving as the network's lead reporter covering campaigns and Congress.
