Last year, extreme weather cost us hundreds of American lives and hundreds of billions of dollars. So… why is the Trump Administration defunding the Weather Service?The Weather Service is part of NOAA, the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration. We need NOAA to help us predict storms and warn people when they need to evacuate. The data is used by airports to make sure planes can fly safely, by farmers to know when to plant their crops, by fishing companies to know when it's safe to send boats out on the water, and by construction companies to plan the best time to pour concrete and calculate the right risks of wildfires or flooding. And individual Americans rely on their weather apps and local meteorologists to tell them when it's safe to go out for a hike or what to pack for an upcoming vacation. The weather app on your phone isn't magical - it relies on weather data provided by NOAA.Climate and weather may be complicated, but the reason why Trump is cutting NOAA is very simple: it's in Project 2025.What Project 2025 wants to do is make NOAA a private, for-profit service. But some things are a public good - like schools, parks, and information. Who benefits when climate and weather information is suddenly paywalled? The millionaires and billionaires who run the companies that now own that information.If we want to survive and thrive over the next few generations, we need access to the best information about our atmosphere and oceans.

Equity, Diversity, and Inclusion (EDI) have become integral components of Canadian science funding. In this episode, we explore Pierre Poilievre's plan to strip funding from research programs that incorporate so-called "woke" policies like EDI. We examine how EDI policies are currently embedded in major grants from NSERC, SSHRC, CIHR, and more, and discuss what could be at stake for Canada's research innovation if these changes move forward. Pierre Poilievre's proposal has sparked a broader debate within the Canadian academic and scientific communities. Many fear that removing EDI requirements could turn back progress made toward ensuring more inclusive and impactful research environments. We'll dive into what these policies actually achieve, why they were implemented, and the potential future of science in Canada.

Today, we're looking at Pierre Poilievre reiterating his commitment to defund the CBC, while keeping the French-language Radio-Canada, and forcing the state broadcaster to compete with other outlets. Plus, Mark Carney admitted the Liberals' flagship carbon tax policy actually contributed very little to reductions in emissions — so why has the party spent the last 10 years forcing the punitive tax on Canadian consumers? And finally, Meghan Murphy, an outspoken activist opposing radical gender ideology, announced she was running as a candidate for the People's Party of Canada, only to then have her bank account frozen. Special Guest: Lise Merle.

Portland's street takeover exposes the absurd reality of defunded police departments – officers forced to 'monitor' illegal activity from a block away while hundreds of idiots spin donuts in the middle of a public street. Watch as businesses owners express their 'concern' (shocker!) while the same city that slashed police budgets now wonders why officers can't magically control 300 lawbreakers with just a handful of patrol cars. This $90 million experiment in 'progressive' policing has resulted in exactly what critics predicted: chaos on the streets with zero consequences. Is anyone surprised that the same politicians who championed police defunding now offer empty 'solutions' like updating towing policies they can't even enforce? How many more neighborhoods need to be terrorized before basic public safety becomes a priority again?

“The kids are watching. The kids see everything. If you can act and model what type of person you want them to be, that's going to be way better than teaching them about a person you want them to be. If you can be the one who's vulnerable first, if you can show other emotions, if you can meet them half way emotionally, that may be an opportunity for them to let their guard down, for them to see connection, and then be able to attend to the work that you want them to do.”Easier said than done?

(The Center Square) – President Donald Trump Thursday called for defunding National Public Radio and Public Broadcasting Service, two partially federally funded groups under scrutiny in the DOGE era. Trump's comments come after heads of both NPR and PBS defended their work at a Wednesday Congressional hearing. At the Wednesday hearing, Republican critics honed in on aggressively anti-Trump coverage, inclusion of trans content in children's programming, and a former senior editor at NPR who uncovered that 87 registered Democrats and not a single registered Republican worked in NPR's D.C. office.Support this podcast: https://secure.anedot.com/franklin-news-foundation/ce052532-b1e4-41c4-945c-d7ce2f52c38a?source_code=xxxxxxFull story: https://www.thecentersquare.com/national/article_0989e03e-2a2a-47d5-8972-a1ed9867b3af.html

The Rich Zeoli Show- Hour 4: 6:05pm- According to reports, The Atlantic's editor in chief Jeffrey Goldberg was inadvertently added to a Signal group chat with Trump Administration officials discussing planned military strikes against Houthi fighters in Yemen. Spokesman for the White House National Security Council Brian Hughes said the messages Goldberg received appear to be “authentic.” In Goldberg's report, he noted that National Security Advisor Michael Waltz was responsible for the mistake and that he may have also violated a federal records law—as Waltz set some of the messages exchanged on Signal to auto-delete after one week. While speaking with the press from the White House on Tuesday, President Donald Trump defended Waltz and suggested he doubts his cabinet officials will rely on Signal for group discussions moving forward. 6:15pm- From the Oval Office, President Donald Trump signed an executive order placing a 25% tariff on imported cars. The tariffs will go into effect on April 2nd. According to The New York Times, 1 million—of the 2.3 million—Toyotas sold in the United States last year were manufactured overseas. 6:20pm- The far-left continues to vandalize Tesla electric vehicles out of disdain for the auto manufacturer's CEO Elon Musk—who heads the Trump Administration's Department of Government Efficiency. Tom Elliot and Grabien have pieced together an incredible montage of media members and Democrats condoning vandalism and, in some cases, violence against Tesla. 6:40pm- On Wednesday, NPR and PBS executives testified before the DOGE subcommittee on overtly political content being funded by taxpayers. During one exchange with Rep. Jim Jordan (R-OH), President and CEO of National Public Radio Katherine Maher conceded that they made a mistake by not covering the Hunter Biden laptop story prior to the 2020 presidential election.

Halting the money out of USAID may end up being WAY BIGGER than anyone expected.

The White House is defunding USAID, one of the largest distributors of foreign aid, and blaming it on wasteful spending—like a D.E.I musical in Ireland. But as Phil, Skye, and Kaitlyn unpack, the real losers are Christian relief organizations like World Relief and Catholic Charities, which now face devastating budget cuts. Then, it's been over 20 years since the release of Blue Like Jazz, the bestselling book that made faith feel cool. Did it offer a helpful critique of evangelicalism, or was this the beginning of the rise of vibes-based Christianity? Also, New York Times columnist Ross Douthat joins Skye to discuss his new book, Believe: Why Everyone Should Be Religious. He explains why our increasingly secular culture is still drawn to spirituality and why rejecting religious institutions in favor of “DIY faith” may not be the answer. Plus, we have a trailer for a new season of Why I'm Still a Christian.
