Hosts: Adam Gardiner and Guest Host Emily Lockhart  The political legacy left behind by Pope Francis  Thousands of people are expected to visit the Vatican to pay their respects for Pope Francis, who passed away at the age of 88. The Pope's legacy wasn't just a spiritual one; it was a political one too. He often spoke up against U.S. Presidents, encouraging them to be more charitable, loving, and peaceful. Kyle Palmer, local Utah Catholic and Principal at Irish Elk, LLC joins Inside Sources to share his takes on the political legacy Pope Francis leaves behind.    China threatens neighboring countries about making trade deals with the US  President Trump's tariffs have contributed to a volatile global stock market, and foreign countries have been clamoring to meet with the President to negotiate tariffs and new trade deals. China is notably not seeking negotiations right now. But the country is exerting pressure on neighboring Asian countries, warning them of retribution if they make deals with the United States that could put Beijing at a disadvantage. To get some perspective on this and what China could do, the hosts are joined by Dr. Anna Pechenkina, associate professor of Political Science at Utah State University.    Op-Ed details chaos and dysfunction under Secretary Hegseth’s command  Between a new op-ed detailing the chaos and dysfunction within the Department of Defense and a new report from The New York Times outlining another instance of sharing sensitive information via Signal, Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth is in the spotlight today. Will the newest stories lead to his removal by President Trump? The Inside Sources hosts share their thoughts on the growing security issues.    Carelessness abides over how sensitive government information is stored  Sloppy handling of sensitive documents has become all-too-commonplace among the last two administrations. The latest instance involves a Google Drive folder -- which contained documents like White House floor plans -- being inadvertently shared among employees who weren't supposed to have access. In this day and age, how have we gotten to this point where there's such disregard for protecting sensitive and classified government information?    Judge rules that Utah Fits All Scholarship is unconstitutional  State lawmakers are preparing their appeal today following last week's ruling by a Utah judge that the Utah Fits All Scholarship program is unconstitutional. It's left a lot of questions for the thousands of children who were beneficiaries of the program. It's also sparked outrage and anger from legislative proponents of the program. The Inside Sources hosts try to answer some of the questions they’ve thought of.     Updates on Utah’s strategic reinvestment bill for higher education  Utah's strategic reinvestment bill for higher education aimed to cut inefficiencies, help with rising tuition costs, and loosen blockades in high-industry-demand majors like nursing and engineering. Now, House leaders say that shuffling funds could also help the mental health crisis facing Utahns by opening up access for future mental health practitioners. State Representative Karen Peterson sponsored the legislation and joins the show to explain how the bill could affect mental health resources.    Poll: Support strong but waning for Gov. Cox, State Legislature  Utahns continue to support Governor Cox and the State Legislature -- that's according to new polling from the Deseret News. But the overall support numbers are dropping, a potential indicator of trouble. The group of voters who seem to be waning in their support are more Democratic-leaning individuals. How much of an effect could that actually have? Adam Gardiner and Emily Lockhart discuss.   Utah’s innovation blueprint and how it could strengthen America’s place in the global tech race  While China continues to ramp up and develop its own AI and technology, the United States stands in a unique position that could result in either technological growth or collapse. Sure, it'll take strong federal action to ensure growth. But as a new opinion piece in the Deseret News points out, it'll also take action from each individual state. Utah is in a good position for exactly this kind of thing. Joining Inside Sources to share more about his opinion piece is Matt Waldrip, Managing Partner at Dauntless Capital Partners and the former chief of staff to Senator Mitt Romney.

As China's military capabilities expand, US-China frictions intensify, and regional tensions increase, concern is on the rise that a potential crisis, either accidental or deliberate, could take place that could spiral out of control. If a crisis arises with China, leaders may want to de-escalate and prevent a wider conflict. To do so, they will need to understand how China thinks about crisis management and escalation.The guest for this episode has dug into the writings of PLA strategists and authoritative PRC sources as well as Western scholarship to assess how China views military escalation and how the US and other countries can accurately predict and interpret PRC signal in crisis scenarios.Lyle Morris is a Senior Fellow on Foreign Policy and National Security at the Center for China Analysis at the Asia Society Policy Institute.

When people think about startups working with the government, the phrase “black box” often comes up. But what if that box is finally being pried open?In this episode—recorded live at the American Dynamism Summit in DC—we talk with two Chief Technology Officers at the heart of American defense: Alex Miller, CTO for the Chief of Staff of the Army, and Justin Fanelli, CTO at the Department of the Navy. Along with a16z partner Leila Hay, they break down how the Department of Defense is shifting from decades-old processes to software-speed execution, why the real bottlenecks are cultural, not technical, and how startups can actually navigate and scale within this massive system.From replacing outdated procurement with faster pathways, to getting tech into the hands of warfighters faster, this is a rare look inside the government's most ambitious efforts to modernize—and what it means for builders on the outside.Is it time to rip up the system and start fresh?

The year 2025 marks the 10th anniversary of China's Digital Silk Road, which has become an increasingly crucial component of Xi Jinping's flagship foreign policy project: the Belt and Road Initiative. Over the past decade, China has massively expanded its digital infrastructure investment across the globe. Accompanying the investment has been the diffusion of China's digital governance norms and standards in recipient states. Countries in the Indo-Pacific have been at the forefront of this stretching Chinese digital influence landscape. The conflation between digital development cooperation and digital governance norms adoption has far-reaching implications that need to be better understood and addressed. To discuss the issue, Michael Caster joins host Bonnie Glaser. Caster is the Head of Global China Programmeat ARTICLE 19, an NGO that advances freedom of opinion and expression. His organization has published two reports examining China's Digital Silk Road. Timestamps[00:00] Start[01:30] Understanding China's Digital Silk Road [05:57] China's Digital Governance Norms[10:16] China's Digital Footprints Abroad[16:07] Attractiveness of Chinese Digital Solutions[18:56] Role of High-Tech Companies in Digital Governance[21:44] Assessing the Effectiveness of China's Digital Governance[23:14] State-Driven Surveillance and Censorship[27:39] China's BeiDou Navigation System [31:09] How should governments respond to these normative shifts?

Here, he began to experiment with regenerative farming techniques using livestock such as cattle, pigs, and chickens to rejuvenate land. Eric's passion for sustainable farming and his military discipline have merged to create the Regenerative Grazing Open Air Lab (R-GOAL) in San Luis Obispo, where he continues to blend agricultural innovation with military training to enhance land stewardship and community resilience.The podcast covers a range of topics, including:Eric's transition from Wisconsin to California and his introduction to regenerative agricultureHis experiences in Africa and the U.S. with livestock relocationThe integration of agricultural practices into military training environmentsThe successful collaboration between military personnel and local ranchersThe innovative grazing management practices on Department of Defense landsThe personal anecdotes of his journey, including the emotional decision to part with his Brahman herdThe ecological benefits observed from these practices, such as increased wildlife sightings and improved landscapesListeners should tune in to this episode to gain insights into the unique intersection of military operations and sustainable agriculture. Eric's story is not only inspiring but also offers practical lessons on how dedication and adaptability can lead to remarkable outcomes in land management.

3.19.2025 #RolandMartinUnfiltered: Defense Dept. deletes Jackie Robinson info, DOGE cuts Fair Housing Grants, DOE grants reinstated The Defense Department claims it was a mistake to delete pages on the Navajo Code Talkers, black Medal of Honor recipients, Jackie Robinson, and Ira Hayes, one of the Marines who raised the flag on Iwo Jima. Movie director Spike Lee has a lot to say about the MAGA movement's efforts to erase Black history. Fair housing groups have filed lawsuits against HUD and DOGE regarding the cancellation of fair housing grants. Pennsylvania State Senator Vincent Hughes will explain what he is doing to combat efforts to dismantle anti-discrimination measures in housing. It seems the Texas Governor is delaying the scheduling of a special election to fill the late Congressman Sylvester Turner's House seat. We'll speak with one candidate eager to represent the 18th Congressional District. And March Madness has kicked off with a historic victory by Alabama State University, which defeated Saint Francis to secure the school's first tournament win. #BlackStarNetwork partner: Fanbasehttps://www.startengine.com/offering/fanbase This Reg A+ offering is made available through StartEngine Primary, LLC, member FINRA/SIPC.

How do we prevent or catch mismanagement, corruption, and waste of taxpayers' dollars in federal agencies? On January 24, 2025, days into his second administration, President Trump fired Inspectors General from 17 different federal agencies, including the Department of Labor. If no one is watching, does that mean there's nothing to see?In this episode Pam Karlan is joined by Glenn Fine, a former Inspector General of both the Department of Justice and the Department of Defense. Glenn highlights the extensive work involved in detecting and deterring waste, fraud, and abuse within these massive agencies. He discusses the differences between the DOJ and DOD, emphasizing the unique challenges and the importance of understanding each agency's culture and operations. Through detailed examples, including politicized hiring at the DOJ and a tragic incident at the Bureau of Prisons, he illustrates the breadth and impact of the investigations conducted by Inspectors General—and the essential function of these watchdogs in maintaining integrity and accountability within federal agencies. Earlier in his career, Glenn served as an Assistant United States Attorney in Washington D.C., where he handled criminal cases, including more than 35 jury trials. He also worked in private practice in two law firms.  He is the author of the book Watchdogs: Inspectors General and the Battle for Honest and Accountable Government, with a foreword by General Jim Mattis. He currently is a fellow at the Brookings Institution and serves as an Adjunct Professor of Law at Georgetown University—and as a visiting lecturer at Stanford Law School.Links:Glenn Fine >>> Stanford Law pageWatchdogs >>> UVA Press pageConnect:Episode Transcripts >>> Stanford Legal Podcast WebsiteStanford Legal Podcast >>> LinkedIn PageRich Ford >>>  Twitter/XPam Karlan >>> Stanford Law School PageStanford Law School >>> Twitter/XStanford Lawyer Magazine >>> Twitter/X(00:00:00)  Introduction and Overview of the Inspector General's Role(00:03:52) The Impact of Inspector General Reports(00:04:39) Notable Investigations at DOJ and DOD(00:15:56) The Role of the Defense Criminal Investigative Service(00:17:23) Coordinating COVID-19 Relief Oversight(00:27:59) Importance of the IG's role in maintaining government accountability

Few have worked longer and with more passion toward understanding the unexplained than astronomer, computer scientist, and internet pioneer Jacques Vallée, who for most of his life has pursued the "forbidden science" of unidentified aerial phenomena.

Former Defense Department CIO John Sherman anticipates many shifts from President Donald Trump and his administration's incoming leadership on tech development and defense priorities. Sherman, who now serves as Dean of Texas A&M's Bush School of Government and Public Service, has spent 30 years in national security and intelligence positions in the CIA, DOD and other agencies. As DOD CIO, he oversaw technology and cyber modernization for a 4 million-person enterprise with a $60 billion IT and cyber budget. He was also politically appointed as Intelligence Community CIO under Trump's first administration. Since taking office, Trump has released new guidance, shifting government's approach to technology modernization and personnel management. Sherman explained how he sees the new administration's priorities developing and provided insight on the Office of Personnel Management's recently released guidance regarding redesignating SES CIO positions. Plus, he shared his perspective on the new AI executive order and the Defense Department's push to develop an “Iron Dome.”

On this week's episode of 'The Sunday Show with Jonathan Capehart': Dubious deadline. Elon Musk says federal employees must justify their job by Monday night or they'll be out of work. But even the leaders of the FBI and State Department are urging their staff not to comply. I'll discuss the chaos and the Democratic response with Rep. Jasmine Crockett and former Biden advisor, Mitch Landrieu. Blackout. The growing online movement to boycott major retailers abandoning diversity and inclusion initiatives. The Rev. Al Sharpton will tell me if this is an effective strategy. And a Bold Move. Three years ago tomorrow, Russia invaded Ukraine, but today, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy said he's willing to resign if it leads to peace. Amb. Michael McFaul will discuss this and the unwillingness of some in the Trump administration to admit that Vladimir Putin started the war. All that and more on “The Sunday Show with Jonathan Capehart.”
