3/8. Social Security is Driven by the Townsend Plan and the Rise of Father Coughlin — David Pietrusza — Dr. Francis Townsend's proposal to provide $200 monthly to citizens over age 60 compelled a reluctant FDR to rapidly introduce the Social Security legislation. Townsend subsequently aligned with the influential radio priest Father Charles Coughlin and Reverend Gerald L.K. Smith to establish a third-party challenge. Coughlin, having turned bitterly against FDR, met with him at Hyde Park the morning following Huey Long's assassination, a meeting that proved to be their final conference. 1936

Since October 7, 2023, the world has witnessed a massive American Jewish uprising in support of Palestinian liberation. Through sit-ins in Congress or Grand Central Terminal, through petitions and marches, thousands of Jews have made it known the Israeli state is not acting in their name. This resistance did not come out of nowhere. Citizens of the Whole World: Anti-Zionism and the Cultures of the American Jewish Left (Verso Books, 2025) returns us to its roots in the “red decade” of the 1930s and, from there, traces the history of American Jewish radicals and revolutionaries to the present day.Benjamin Balthaser delves into radical Jewish novels and memoirs, as well as interviews with Jewish revolutionaries, to unearth a buried if nonetheless unbroken continuity between leftist Jewish Americans and the diasporic internation­alism of today.Covering more than just the politics of anti-Zionism, Citizens of the Whole World explores the Jewish revolutionary traditions of Marxist internationalism, Jewish solidarity with Third World struggles, and relations between Jewish and Black radicals during the Civil Rights era.Balthaser's book stages an intervention into current anti-Zionist politics, suggesting activists can learn from past struggles to help form a future politics in a world after Zionism. Benjamin Balthaser's critical and creative work explores the connections among radical U.S. social movements, racial and class formation, internationalism, and culture. He is the author of Anti-Imperialist Modernism: Race and Radical Transnational Culture from the Great Depression to the Cold War (University of Michigan Press, 2016) and Dedication (Partisan Press, 2011).

Jesus Followers Have Eternal Life, Even Before their Earthly Death, Because Whoever “believes him {God} who sent me {Jesus}” MESSAGE SUMMARY: First, the moment you become a Jesus Follower, you have immediate Eternal Life; and you become a Citizen of Heaven.  Jesus tells us, in John 5:24, that His followers have Eternal Life and are Citizens of Heaven here on earth living their earthly lives: “Truly, truly, I say to you, whoever hears my word and believes him who sent me has eternal life. He does not come into judgment, but has passed from death to life.". As Christians and Citizens of Heaven, we know that the Lord is coming back -- either to greet us when we die or before we die at His Second Coming. For most of us, however, our vision of Heaven is clouded by looking backwards; therefore, the return of Jesus does not have any power in our life. Paul reinforces the return of the Lord of Heaven in Philippians 1:6: “And I am sure of this, that he who began a good work in you will bring it to completion at the day of Jesus Christ.". When Jesus returns, we will put on our spiritual bodies, as promised. As Jesus tells us in Matthew 4:17: “From that time Jesus began to preach, saying, ‘Repent, for the kingdom of heaven is at hand.'”.   TODAY'S PRAYER: Lord, Sabbath rest is truly an unbelievable gift! Thank you that there is nothing I can do to earn your love; it comes without any strings attached. As I close my eyes for these few minutes before you, all I can say is, thank you! In Jesus' name, amen.    Scazzero, Peter. Emotionally Healthy Spirituality Day by Day (p. 133). Zondervan. Kindle Edition. TODAY'S AFFIRMATION: I affirm that because of what God has done for me in His Son, Jesus, I AM RIGHTEOUS IN GOD'S EYES. God made Him who had no sin to be sin for us, so that in Him we might become the righteousness of God. 2 Corinthians 5:21 SCRIPTURE REFERENCE (ESV): 1 Peter 1:1-18; 1 Corinthians 11:23-27; Luke 22:20; Psalms 1:1-6.

As we begin the Advent season, we remember that we are citizens, not the King. Too often we climb onto a throne that isn't ours, trying to rule our own lives. But Advent invites us to step down from the throne and let the King be King. When we shift our identity from king to citizen, we find the freedom, peace, and joy that come from living under the reign of the One who has come — and is coming again. Scriptures: 1 Timothy 6:13-16, 1 Corinthians 4:3-4, 2 Corinthianas 12: 7-10, Hebrews 4:15-16

The news of Texas covered today includes:Our Lone Star story of the day: A new ruling in the case of the City of Kemaj abusing citizens from the Fifth Circuit Court of Appeals will have far reaching consequences for Texas and local governments that abuse the rights of citizens. One key takeaway: The court “…asserted that a “taking” of property occurs at the time a government takes an action that makes the property unusable.”Read the full story by the great Holly Hansen here: Federal Appeals Court Ruling in Kemah Lawsuit Dismantles Hurdles for Citizens to Sue Local Governments.Our Lone Star story of the day is sponsored by Allied Compliance Services providing the best service in DOT, business and personal drug and alcohol testing since 1995.Dallas Fed: Texas manufacturing activity accelerates.

We lead-off with Milwaukee Area Labor Council President Pam Fendt to discuss a successful organizing campaign by union workers at the City of Milwaukee to win a Common Council vote to override the Mayor's budget vetoes, including his effort to scale backe to pay increases for city employees who live in Milwaukee. We connect this worker-led union effort to the possibility of the 2026 state elections leading to a Democratic trifecta which could set the stage to overturn Act 10 and other anti-worker policies in Wisconsin. Will a new Democratic majority be ready to raise the additional revenue to make up for all the lost ground caused by Scott Walker's union busting? We update the co-sponsor count for the Utility Rate Cap bill, bringing the total of sponsors to 19. We encourage our listeners to contact your state Senators and Representatives next week before the December 5th co-sponsorship deadline. Robert updates us on the latest indications of an AI data center superpowered stock market bubble that could generate another financial meltdown, and leave Wisconsinites deal with abandoned data centers and unneeded methane gas plants. Citizen Action is an early supporter of Clean Wisconsin's petition to pause AI Data Centers until a comprehensive plan to deal with climate emissions, water, and energy costs for consumers is developed. We discuss why this is so important, especially considering the potential for a historic AI data center bubble bursting and leaving us holding the bag. Robert helps us better understand the policy question embroiling federal politics: Is Trump really trying to extend ACA subsidies as he announced this week? And will WisconsinEye halt its unique coverage of state politics on December 15th without more funds, further reducing the transparency and accountability of state government.

The Citizen bought storied Philadelphia magazine. Here's why.

We discuss the pathbreaking Utility Rate Cap bill which is currently circulating for co-sponsors in the state legislature. We praise the current co-sponsors and encourage our listeners to reach out to their state legislators today. We expose the continuing perversion of democracy and human decency that finds Speaker Robin Vos unilitarially blocking the latest effort to pass a PostPartum Care Expansion bill in the Assembly with overwhleming bi-partisan support. It already pased Wisconsin Senate 32-1. We continue the conversation on the un democratic rush to approve and throw tax giveaways at AI data centers owned by the world's richest people and largest tech companies. We look at the public uprising where conservatives, independents and democrats agree the data center assault on communities is corporate welfare in the guise of economic development. We close with a dive into the new national MU Law Poll that trumpets Trump vulnerability. We are not as sure. We also look at how voters' clear top issue is the cost of living and how no matter where you live in Wisconsin you should shuld make enough income to afford the basics of life. House Democrats call on Trump to act on an epidemic of claims denials in employer-sponsored health care. And, Group Health Co-op board to discuss motions to recognize the nurse and healthcare workers union.

"You ever been beaten down by life after 30 years? ... That's the genesis of Slow Joy. It's just emotionally driven lyrics and things that make sense really loud."In this episode, we sit down with Esteban from Slow Joy at the Bottom Lounge in Chicago to discuss the reality of tour life and the release of his deluxe record, A Joy Even Slower. Bridging the gap between the Myspace era and today's alternative waves, Esteban breaks down how growing up in the Dallas music scene influenced his unique sound—a mix of "hot and sludgy" shoegaze and anthem-heavy emo.We explore his deep love for Taking Back Sunday (specifically the Louder Now era) and the cinematic history of the "The Ghost of You" music video. Esteban also opens up about his vocal evolution, moving from trying to emulate Midwest emo tappies to channeling the raw power of Joe Talbot from Idles and Citizen. Whether you are a nostalgic millennial or an emo revivalist, this conversation connects the history of the genre to its exciting future. Key Topics & Timestamps:Introduction: The reality of tour life and the "Venn Diagram" of sleep vs. foodThe Emo Check: Why Taking Back Sunday's "Makedamnsure" is the perfect songFun Fact: How the director of "The Ghost of You" went on to direct Spider-ManDefining the Slow Joy sound: "Life beating you down"Deep dive into the deluxe album A Joy Even Slower and Modest Mouse influencesTouring with The Academy Is... and the kindness of 2000s legendsThe Texas Scene Report: Dallas, Denton, and the "sludgy" shoegaze soundVocal techniques: Channeling Idles and Citizen vs. Midwest Emo math rockWhere to find Slow Joy online Guest/Band Links:Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/artist/SlowJoyInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/slowjoy.officialOfficial Website: https://www.slowjoymusic.com/ Episode Highlights:"I'm not cool enough to do the shoegaze thing. So I just kind of live in a world where you sing like these bright, cool melodies and then do that melodic rock stuff.""I'm just gonna do my best Joe Talbot impression... that 'tough guy' voice thing that I do. Everybody is like, 'Oh, that's like Citizen.' And I was like, 'No, I'm actually just trying to do Joe [from Idles].'""You can do two things half-a**ed... or I'm gonna do one thing at a time.

Send us a textTonight our friend Karla Wagner from AxMITax.org is back on the show and she has learned first hand how dirty and disingenuous the game of politics really is. It's all political theater and gaslighting. Tonight she will continue her fight to end property taxes here in Michigan and what we must to to help. The federal DOGE model should be the ordinary, not the extraordinary and needs to happen in every state.

Trust in government is low. Politicians are trading personal insults on social media. And, Americans see the country as more divided than at any other time since the Civil War. What would it take to bring more dialogue, respect and effectiveness to politics? A first-of-its-kind program from the Citizen's League is starting small and personal, with an “exchange” program for pairs of state Republican and DFL legislators. The goal is to build genuine relationships across the aisle and help legislators gain firsthand insight into a region of Minnesota different from their own. MPR News guest host Catharine Richert reported on one of the first legislator pairs to participate. On Tuesday, she sat down to talk more with them and with the program's founder about what it takes to build bipartisan trust.

Register your feedback here. Always good to hear from you!If I could choose any superpower, I might pick being able to fly. I doubt I'm alone in that. No wonder flight is used so often in the Bible as a spiritual metaphor. This week we'll learn how to escape the problems of this life by looking at the world the way God does; how to embrace the desire to fly God put in us and use it properly; how to accept adversity on the way to spiritual  achievement; and how to reject dreams of world domination in favor of being just one cog in a gigantic wheel.Check out Hal on YouTube at https://www.youtube.com/@halhammons9705Hal Hammons serves as preacher and shepherd for the Lakewoods Drive church of Christ in Georgetown, Texas.

When our kids step into the digital world, most of us feel like we're handing them car keys without ever having learned to drive ourselves. In this episode, Danish parenting expert and author Jessica Joelle Alexander returns to share the tool she created when her own daughter started asking for a phone: Raising Digital Citizens conversation cards. Drawing on Denmark's world-leading approach to happiness, character education, and digital well-being, Jessica shows how “digital independence” can become part of their modern rite of passage. Through simple, powerful questions, families learn to talk about safety, scams, manipulation, and trusted adults before a crisis hits, so kids already know what to do and who to go to when something goes wrong. Ginny and Jessica walk through real scenarios kids face every day: a bathroom photo being shared around school, “harmless” pranks that go too far, gaming scams and virtual goods, misunderstood texts and emojis, mean comments, and the pressure to be “always on” with friends. This is a hopeful, practical roadmap for raising kids who are kind, thoughtful, and safe in both the online and real worlds.

Steven Spielberg's extraordinary career redefined Hollywood, but his achievement goes far beyond shattered box office records. Rejecting the view of Spielberg as a Barnumesque purveyor of spectacle, Lester D. Friedman presents the filmmaker as a major artist who pairs an ongoing willingness to challenge himself with a widely recognized technical mastery. This new edition of Citizen Spielberg (University of Illinois Press, 2022) expands Friedman's original analysis to include films of the 2010s like Lincoln and Ready Player One. Breaking down the works by genre, Friedman looks at essential aspects of Spielberg's art, from his storytelling concerns and worldview to the uncanny connection with audiences that has powered his longtime influence as a cultural force. Friedman's examination reveals a sustained artistic vision--a vision that shows no sign of exhausting itself or audiences after Spielberg's nearly fifty years as a high-profile filmmaker. Incisive and discerning, Citizen Spielberg, Second Edition, offers a career-spanning appraisal of a moviemaking icon. Nathan Abrams is a professor of film at Bangor University in Wales [https://research.bangor.ac.uk/...(b8c6d91f-14c5-4862-8745-0f5d0e938a28).html].

Today I welcome Anthony Miller onto the podcast. Anthony shares his journey through a series of ontologically shocking events ranging from cultural to political to religious to exploring the very fabric of reality. This resulted in him developing a contact protocol that, to put it lightly, was a success. Anthony Miller is the co-host of "Fire In The Cosmos" (formerly "Obliterate The Construct"), a video podcast with Sinéad Whelehan examining the wide-ranging connections between consciousness, various anomalous phenomena, mystical experiences, and human potential. He is also the state lead for the Virginia chapter of Citizens for Disclosure, a volunteer activist group under the New Paradigm Institute pushing for UFO disclosure in Congress and destigmatizing the topic throughout society.Anthony is an experiencer of various anomalous phenomena who has learned the importance of taking a broad, non-dualistic, and integral approach in the exploration of consciousness and our greater reality, seeking to communicate this in both his public and private outreach efforts. With a career in open source intelligence (OSINT), he leverages his expertise in media and disinformation analysis to raise awareness on the narratives and constructs that have co-created and continue to permeate our perceived realities, and how we can regain agency and re-enchant our world. Anthony holds a master's degree in Public Policy & National Security from George Mason University and a B.A. in International Studies from Virginia Tech. Recently, he has started a position as Fundraiser for the nonprofit Consciousness Hub -- a community for those exploring the nature of reality, inner growth, and expanded awareness, featuring live events, meditations, imagination journeys, and practical tools that support real change.Fire In The Cosmos LinksYouTube (Video)Spotify (Audio)Patreon (Support & Community)InstagramX/TwitterFacebookListen to my recent appearance on⁠⁠ Gods, Ghosts and UFOs.⁠⁠Become a patron at the EarthLovers $10 tier by visiting ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠patreon.com/robinlassiter⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ and get access to two Community Gatherings per month. ⁠⁠Earth: A Love Story is now an ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠AUDIOBOOK!⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠My book ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Earth: A Love Story⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠exists as a physical object in the world.

Our allegiance to Christ shapes how we live, work and engage in a culturethat is driven by greed, fear, and self. We live in the profound truth that gives us bothour identity and purpose; we are citizens of the Kingdom of God and of the world. Ourdual citizenship may seem to be a contradiction, but in fact it is a calling. We live in thetension of the values of Christ and the seduction of the world. Through the power ofGod, we walk with integrity, generosity, justice and compassion considering “the other”as we balance both worlds.

China's Censorship Campaign Against Pessimism and Social Discontent. Charles Burton discusses how China initiated a two-month campaign against "pessimism," targeting citizens who criticize the state due to economic failure, unfair housing, or joblessness. The regime ignores serious societal issues, relying on propaganda while profound discontent exists privately. Censorship is counterproductive, leading to false reporting and increasing internal cynicism toward the leadership. With official news censored, people rely on fast-running rumors, which the government attempts to deal with by arresting activists and rumor-mongers.
