“I'm Sorry, Dave.” It's not that George Soros was born in 2008 but he became part of the political zeitgeist that year as we learned about how he helped raise a fortune for the Presidential aspirations of a young Senator from Illinois named Barrack.  Ever since then the specter of Soros and his money has hung over every discussion about democracy in the United States. Last year he announced that he was stepping back from the day-to-day operations in favor of his son Alex, who he calls far more politically active than he ever was, taking over. The fear in Conservative circles was that a more politically aggressive, more targeted Soros organization at Open society would be harder to even keep up with, never mind defeat. The Soros organization is the key pole underneath the tent of a fundraising machine called  Arabella Advisors. They are a philanthropic consulting company that oversees a handful of nonprofits, all of which oversee a multitude of left-leaning projects and organizations. When accounting for the seven nonprofits in the Arabella Network, they provided nearly $1 billion in grants in 2023 alone.  One group that has done an exquisite job all the way to the point of publishing a book on who Arabella Advisors are is the Capital Research Center. Kristen Eastlake, Senior Vice President of the CRC sits down with us at the State Policy Network annual meeting to tell us breaking news that George and more importantly Alex Soros may not have the money they used to have.

What level of proof is required before sounding the alarm? When risks are identified, should they be broadcast widely, or kept within a limited circle? What happens when victims are silenced, ignored, or when abuse is covered up? How can we, as a community, ensure that abuse is never minimized or swept under the rug?

At the beginning of August, Trump took to social media and informed the world he had instructed the Department of Commerce to immediately begin work on “a new and highly accurate CENSUS based on modern day facts and figures and, importantly, using the results and information gained from the Presidential Election of 2024.” Most notably, he wrote, “People who are in our Country illegally WILL NOT BE COUNTED IN THE CENSUS.” If Trump has his way, it will have significant repercussions on how Congressional districts could be drawn, even as Texas leads the pack and has already approved a new congressional map – leading to a very public walkout by Texas Senate Democrats and CA Gov Gavin Newsom's retaliatory threat to redraw California's congressional map. There's also a SCOTUS angle here, as the Supreme Court squashed the citizenship question pertaining to the 2020 census when it came up in 2019. Now, CRC has learned that some hefty lefty funding is going into an effort to push a narrative on the census that runs counter to the Trump administration's and is designed to last for the next 10 years to cover the 2030 census. And one prominent name in the mix is our old friend The Funders Committee for Civic Participation. Here to discuss are my colleagues, Mike Watson, and the President of CRC, Scott Walter. Funder's Committee 10-year plan to influence the 2030 CensusMike Gonzalez explains why the Census should include the citizenship questionSome thoughts on the gerrymandering warsCensus Bureau Errors Distort Congressional Representation for the StatesFunder's Committee members listFunders Committee for Civic Participation (FCCP)

In this episode we speak with Bert Adema, Executive Director of Indigenous Christian Fellowship in Regina, Saskatchewan. Bert shares about 32 years of ministry, fostering a vibrant community by addressing spiritual and social needs. He emphasizes an incarnational approach, tackling the "messiness" of the world and advocating for right relations, not just reconciliation. Bert also reflects on finding hope and abundance amidst scarcity, powered by prayer, community, and trusting God's provision."If you're sitting there and you have no hope at all, you're really, really in a difficult situation. I think prayer is really, really important. And then when we pray in community... we say, 'What can we do together?'"Links:Indigenous Christian Fellowship: https://icfregina.ca/home CRC's Indigenous Ministry: https://www.crcna.org/indigenousTranscript: https://www.crcna.org/do-justice/bert-adema-gifts-gardens-and-good-samaritans

In this special episode of The Data Minute, Peter sits down with Dave Chen, Co-Head of Global Technology Investment Banking at Morgan Stanley, for a tactical deep dive on how today's founders should think about going public.Dave shares what IPO prep really looks like in 2025 and beyond, why the best companies start working with bankers 2–3 years ahead of a listing, how institutional investors actually evaluate growth-stage companies, and which metrics every founder needs to start tracking long before they file a public S-1. He also breaks down the difference between “lean in” and “sobering” market windows, how valuation strategy works behind the scenes, and what happens in the high-pressure decision days right before a public debut.If you're leading an aspirational company, or running growth-stage finance, this is the IPO playbook you've been waiting for.Subscribe to Carta's weekly Data Minute newsletter: https://carta.com/subscribe/data-newsletter-sign-up/Explore interactive startup and VC data, with Carta's Data Desk: https://carta.com/data-desk/Chapters:01:12 – Dave Chen's path from pre-med to tech investment banking02:53 – The enduring founder journey from startup to IPO04:16 – IPO timelines have changed06:21 – How scale has shifted in the public markets07:28 – Is there still room for smaller IPOs?08:31 – Lean in vs. sober & clinical10:03 – Why companies now engage banks years before IPO12:00 – How founders can gauge IPO readiness13:08 – Building investor relationships years ahead of a roadshow14:34 – What happens when the IPO timeline shifts16:11 – 2024 recap: What happened, and what didn't, in tech IPOs17:32 – The real reason we didn't see more IPOs18:44 – Private capital changed the game for late-stage companies20:01 – The rise of structured late-stage rounds21:03 – How growth + downside protection are unlocking new deals22:53 – Why public investors love private exposure early23:06 – Does IPO prep differ for tech vs. non-tech companies?24:15 – 2–3 years out: What founders should focus on first25:13 – Most teams don't optimize metrics correctly26:02 – The management team matters before and after the IPO27:26 – Designing a board that adds real support28:12 – Why predictable revenue matters pre-IPO29:34 – The fuel founders need to operate like a public company30:53 – The small M&A move that delayed an IPO by six months33:14 – Biggest mistake?

Almost everyone can look at the education landscape in America today and see that something has gone very, very wrong. Spending per student has increased, and there is no evidence that this increased spending has improved student performance outcomes. But what if there are factors eating up the budget and keeping the student performance outcomes stagnant? Factors such as the rise of teachers unions in non-right-to-work states, for example?Joining us today is Corey DeAngelis, a school choice evangelist who is a senior fellow at the American Culture Project, to discuss a recently released report he helped author that looks at just that, the administrative bloat in the public school system and how it correlates to increased teacher union influence. Also joining is CRC colleague Mike Watson, our regular host and resident labor union expert. Corey A. DeAngelis is a senior fellow at the American Culture Project. He has been labeled the “school choice evangelist” and called “the most effective school choice advocate since Milton Friedman.” He is a regular on Fox News and frequently appears in The Wall Street Journal. DeAngelis is also the executive director at Educational Freedom Institute, a senior fellow at Reason Foundation, an adjunct scholar at Cato Institute, a board member at Liberty Justice Center, and a senior advisor at Accuracy in Media. He holds a Ph.D. in education policy from the University of Arkansas. He is the national bestselling author of The Parent Revolution: Rescuing Your Kids from the Radicals Ruining Our Schools (Center Street, 2024).Links: Educational Bloat and the Role of UnionsCorey DeAngelis - XEducation FirstWhere Is, Repeat Where Is, America's Political Leadership?

Equity compensation can be a powerful tool to engage and motivate employees, but only when they understand its value. With over 25 years of experience in stock plan administration, Christine Zwerling, Head of Stock Administration at Asana, shares insights for HR leaders looking to make equity work harder for their teams. In this episode of Invested at Work, host Rodney Bolden speaks with Christine about how equity compensation can be a key lever for culture and connection. Christine shares how Asana's approach ties equity compensation to corporate goals, how employee understanding of equity evolves over time and why clear communication is key to maximizing its value. They also discuss common misconceptions about equity, the disconnect between how HR and employees perceive its value, and how strong equity plans can support both business performance and employee well-being.Visit MorganStanley.com/atwork for more insights on workplace financial benefits.

Send us a textWhat happens when a struggling father refuses to let disability define his family's future? Hannah Smith's remarkable story reveals the transformative journey from family separation to triumphant reunion in post-war Sierra Leone.Hannah's story begins in hardship—her disabled father, a determined blacksmith, made the heartbreaking decision to place his children in an orphanage when he couldn't provide basic necessities. Though initially grateful for education and proper care at the Child Rescue Center, Hannah and her siblings soon felt a profound emptiness without their father's presence. "Every day spent without him, it was like, 'When are we going to see our dad again?'" Hannah shares, revealing how even well-intentioned institutional care cannot replace family bonds.The turning point came through empowerment, not charity. The CRC's microfinance program equipped Hannah's father with business training and initial capital that allowed him to expand his blacksmith work creating farming tools and even open a small cinema for community football viewings. Crawling on the ground to perform his craft during difficult rainy seasons when orders decreased, this remarkable man refused to surrender to circumstances. He transformed from a parent who couldn't provide into a successful entrepreneur who trained others and rebuilt his family's future.Today, Hannah pursues higher education inspired by her father's extraordinary example. "He's our strong pillar... despite his condition, he's always keeping a deep smile to tell people that yes, even though he's disabled, all is not lost." Her powerful message reminds us that determination coupled with the right support can overcome seemingly insurmountable obstacles.

In celebration of CRC's 35th anniversary, Pastor Richard Hilton delivered a heartfelt and powerful message titled “I Have You in My Heart,” centered on Philippians 1:3–7. Reflecting on the deep bond Paul shared with the church at Philippi, Pastor Hilton reminded us that ministry is more than moments—it's about meaningful relationships built through financial support, friendship, and fellowship. He emphasized that we're called to do life together: remembering each other with gratitude, praying with joy, and walking in deep, limitless love. When someone is in your heart, you set your affection on them, you share vision with them, and you sacrifice for their destiny. With joy woven throughout the message—just as it flows through Philippians—Pastor Hilton closed with the reminder that God is a Finisher, faithful to complete the good work He began in us. This message marked not just an anniversary but a reaffirmation of our calling to love deeply, dream boldly, and serve one another wholeheartedly.

The best CEOs know how to hold the long-term vision—while building the structure and discipline needed to scale sustainably. That's according to Henry Ward, Founder and CEO of Carta, a networked enterprise resource planning (ERP) platform for private capital markets.In this episode, Henry joins host Rodney Bolden to reflect on his founder journey and the leadership lessons he's learned along the way. They discuss “founder mode,” how the founder mindset evolves as a company grows, and how to manage the tension between innovation and operational rigor within a company. They also cover why more companies are staying private longer and how private companies are offering meaningful equity and liquidity to retain top talent, from early-stage startup to late-stage growth.

Private equity funds typically invest in securities, instruments, and assets that are not, and are not expected to become, publicly traded and therefore may require a substantial length of time to realize a return or fully liquidate. They typically have high management, performance and placement fees which can lower the returns achieved by investors. They are often speculative and include a high degree of risk. Investors can lose all or a substantial amount of their investment. They may be highly illiquid with significant lock-up periods and no secondary market, can engage in leverage and other speculative practices that may increase volatility and the risk of loss, and may be subject to large investment minimums. When Morgan Stanley Smith Barney LLC, its affiliates and Morgan Stanley Financial Advisors and Private Wealth Advisors (collectively, “Morgan Stanley”) provide “investment advice” regarding a retirement or welfare benefit plan account, an individual retirement account or a Coverdell education savings account (“Retirement Account”), Morgan Stanley is a “fiduciary” as those terms are defined under the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended (“ERISA”), and/or the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 (the “Code”), as applicable. When Morgan Stanley provides investment education, takes orders on an unsolicited basis or otherwise does not provide “investment advice”, Morgan Stanley will not be considered a “fiduciary” under ERISA and/or the Code.

Over the past several years, the public has become familiar with the concept of “lawfare,” the process of using the legal system to gain political ends regardless of the validity of the underlying case. Environmentalist groups have long been practitioners of aggressive lawfare, but who exactly is funding litigation challenging the ability of energy companies to make energy? The U.S. Senate suspects that the People's Republic of China may be among them, and so CRC president Scott Walter was invited to testify on the funding of lawfare at a Judiciary Subcommittee hearing titled “Enter the Dragon—China and the Left's Lawfare Against American Energy Dominance.” Scott joins us to discuss his testimony.Scott Walter's Written Testimony to the Senate Judiciary Subcommittee
