The parent company of the satirical site The Onion acquired Infowars, a franchise founded by conspiracy theorist Alex Jones. Infowars was recently auctioned off to help Alex Jones pay the nearly 1.5 billion dollars he owes the families of the Sandy Hook Elementary school shooting victims after he falsely claimed that the 2012 massacre was a hoax. Everytown For Gun Safety was named as the exclusive advertiser on the new platform. Everytown's President John Feinblatt joins “Forbes Newsroom” to discuss the partnership.

April 20th marked the 25th anniversary of the Columbine High School shooting in Colorado, which at the time was deemed the worst in America's history. In this episode, Maggie hosts Monisha Henley, senior vice president of government affairs for Everytown for Gun Safety. Everytown was formed in 2014 following Columbine, the Sandy Hook Elementary school shooting in Newtown, Connecticut and others. In this conversation, we learn more about the motivators for Monisha's work, Everytown's policy priorities and bipartisan policy successes in the past 10 years, and what's next for Everytown in its second decade.   Monisha Henley is the Senior Vice President of Government Affairs at Everytown. Before joining Everytown, she honed her expertise at the American Nurses Association and PricewaterhouseCoopers (PwC). She began her career in the United States Senate. Monisha is originally from Wilmington, DE and now resides in New York City. 

Thursday, October 26th, 2023   Nick Suplina is Senior Vice President for Law & Policy at Everytown for Gun Safety. He was previously an advisor for New York State's Attorney General. We discuss how 10 years of grassroots organizing has changed the political calculus on gun safety legislation, starting with the Bipartisan Safer Communities Act.    Although progress is slow, 15 Republican senators did vote for the Bipartisan Safer Communities Act in 2022. This was made possible because of 10 years worth of pressure from constituents. Since Sandy Hook, grassroots organizing has made a significant difference. The notion that there is no point in fighting because nothing will ever change is false. As Nick told us, “Just because we can't get everything we want, doesn't mean we shouldn't act every way we can.”   Follow Nick on Twitter:  https://twitter.com/nicksuplina    Follow Mila on Twitter:  https://twitter.com/milaatmos    Learn about Everytown for Gun Safety:  www.everytown.org   Follow Future Hindsight on Instagram:  https://www.instagram.com/futurehindsightpod/   Love Future Hindsight?

A hoax phone call sent Moab schools into lockdown on Wednesday. It was one of over a dozen calls placed yesterday affecting communities across Utah. State and federal law enforcement are currently investigating the source of the calls. We also hear from a representative of Everytown For Gun Safety, who says there are long term impacts on students and their families living under the constant threat of gun violence. Plus, Arches National Park will use a timed-entry system again this tourist season to prevent overcrowding. And later, the EPA is studying better waste solutions in tourist towns. Show Notes: // Photo: Grand County High School. Hoax calls affected thirteen Utah schools on Wednesday, sending many into lockdown. //Everytown For Gun Safety https://www.everytown.org/ //Arches National Park Tickets on Recreation.gov https://www.recreation.gov/timed-entry/10088426 //KOTO: EPA Studies the Grimy Side of Tourism https://www.koto.org/featured-news-stories/2023/3/23/cct7livoqnwjuc7yg46ibwok0nyu4o

Shannon Watts is the founder of Moms Demand Action For Gun Sense in America — a self-described “accidental activist” who, in less than a decade, went from being a stay-at-home mother in Indiana to the face of a national grassroots movement with more active members than the National Rifle Association. When Watts launched her advocacy group as a simple Facebook page in the wake of the Sandy Hook school shooting in December 2012, she had just 75 friends on the site but grand ambitions, boundless energy, and infinite chutzpah. Today, Moms Demand Action is part of Everytown For Gun Safety and a political juggernaut, deploying tens of thousands of volunteers and tens of millions of dollars to support candidates, legislative campaigns, and corporate reform efforts. Heilemann and Watts discuss the ways her group has changed the game on gun control, the role of women and young people in the movement, the crisis at the NRA, and why Watts believes the Biden administration will be “the strongest gun safety administration in history.” Hosted on Acast.

#Millennial is back in time for PRIDE month y'all! Time for some pretend adulting, gay talk. To kick off Pride Month, we speak with Kacen Callender, author of bestselling novel 'Felix Ever After.' Kacen tells us how they got started as a writer, and we chat about the increase in popularity of LGBTQ romance in mainstream media. Kacen can't spill too much, but 'Felix Ever After' is being adapted by Amazon, and we're so excited to see it! Follow Kacen on Twitter and check out their website here! It's time to talk gun safety reform... again. In the space of two weeks, mass shootings in a Buffalo supermarket and a Texas grade school left dozens dead. We've heard the same rhetoric around this gun debate for our entire lives - why does this keep happening? We look at some data to explain how our state legislatures respond. The upshot is this: Republican controlled state legislatures respond by loosening gun laws 120% in the year following a mass shooting. Why? The NRA continues to be better funded, and gun fanatics are simply better at engaging with the political process. Here's what we all need to do to make a difference: be engaged with what your state's legislature is doing, join a local gun violence prevention group, donate to a national gun reform organization (Everytown For Gun Safety, Brady, Coalition to Stop Gun Violence, Sandy Hook Promise), volunteer for pro-gun reform candidates, and VOTE in every election!  Want to help victims and survivors in Buffalo and Uvalde? Check out these verified fundraisers: Verified fundraisers for Buffalo + Verified Fundraisers for Uvalde Shifting gears, Andrew tells us about an eventful birthday weekend, and provides video evidence of a wild police stop he witnessed right in front of him. This week's recommendations are informative and comfy: 'Prehistoric Planet' on Apple TV+ (Andrew), 'The G Word' on Netflix (Laura), and shoe inserts for converse (Pam). And in this week's installment of After Dark, available on Patreon: We're kicking off our in-depth host interviews this week with Pam! Pam shares how she got into journalism, and the joys and and difficulties of breaking into the field. Where did we meet Pam? Through Harry Potter? Through Twilight? None of us can remember. What does Pam do outside of #Millennial? And what's her greatest ambition in life?

Uvalde: funerals begin for the 21 victims of last week's mass shooting. Visiting mourning families over the weekend, President Joe Biden was urged by members of a Uvalde crowd to "do something" - the U.S. Justice Department will conduct an investigation into law enforcement's response. Pete Arredondo, the school police chief being charged with stopping police officers from intervening quickly, will not be publicly sworn in to the Uvalde City Council - he won election to a seat last month. Almost $3 million has been raised for the surviving children of slain teacher Irma Garcia and her husband Joe, who has died of a heart attack since the shooting. Harry Styles announces a partnership in honor of the Uvalde victims with the non-profit Everytown For Gun Safety, and Matthew McConaughey - who spent his early childhood in Uvalde - paid his respects this weekend as well. Governor Greg Abbott has made incorrect statements about the Sutherland Springs shooting, asserting that background checks would not have stopped that shooter from arming himself (they would have). Kaitlin Armstrong remains wanted and at large in the shooting death of pro cyclist Anna Moria Wilson - she was charged with larceny after walking out of a Botox spa without paying a $650 bill in 2018. Austin City Council Member Chito Vela is proposing a resolution that would reduce any enforcement of Texas abortion laws to APD's lowest priority and restrict city funds and staff from use in any action on suspected abortions. Another scooter-related death has occurred, Sunday night in South Austin - that's three in about the last month. We're on track to conclude the hottest May in Austin in recorded history. We're also more than two inches behind our typical rainfall totals - Austin will begin Stage 1 water use restrictions next Monday, June 6. The Austin City Council is considering trimming down, dissolving or merging a range of the four dozen current City boards and commissions. Longtime South Congress curio merchant Tesoros Trading Company has announced its impending closure. The University of Texas is one of three Texas colleges that have made a list of the most sought-after colleges in the country. UT was #2 overall and tops in Texas, followed by Texas A&M, the University of Houston, and Baylor. A team of 5 BBQ cooks from Navarro Early College High School is set to compete in an national BBQ competition in mid-June in Round Rock. A man has caught a record-setting 64-pound smallmouth buffalo fish from Lady Bird Lake. Texas Longhorns Baseball beat Oklahoma State for a second time to advance to the Big 12 Tournament title game, only to be stopped in their tracks by OU 8-1. Texas has, however, been named an NCAA regional host for the national tournament starting on Friday - the Horns face Air Force, and Louisiana Tech faces Dallas Baptist. Austin FC collected a "well-earned loss" to the L.A. Galaxy last night - they're off for the international break until a visit to Montreal on June 18.

TikTok star Isaiah Garza joins Robert Peterpaul to discuss going from a childhood of poverty and homelessness to giving back, viral kindness videos on social media and much more. You've no doubt come across Isaiah's moving viral videos. From surprising deserving people with money to people suffering from homelessness with houses, their videos are a bright spot in the newsfeed. Isaiah has amassed almost 8 million followers on TikTok with this kind-first content. Giving to others is second nature to the jewelry designer and activist. Isaiah's story began in Yakima, Washington, where they grew up in poverty and often, they and their family struggled with homelessness. Many of Isaiah's friends were killed by drug or gang violence. But Isaiah had dreams carried them to: Los Angeles. Isaiah's big break came when Rihanna wore one of their jewelry pieces in a magazine cover shoot. We get into that amazing story during our chat. Their designs have now adorned celebrities like Selena Gomez, Cardi B, Khloé Kardashian, Chance the Rapper, and Pete Davidson. Expanding into clothing now, Isaiah's designs can be found online at isaiahgarza.com in addition to a variety of boutiques around the world. In addition to being a social media star, Isaiah is also the Drew-Gooder Ambassador on The Drew Barrymore Show and continues to work with various organizations to make the world a better place.

A right-wing rally is headed to D.C. tomorrow (Saturday, Sept 18th), and the participants will be armed. Justin Wagner is the Director of Investigations for Everytown for Gun Safety, and the organization is concerned about what lies ahead for this particular rally, given that their data shows definitive proof that guns in the mix make the scenario more dangerous. Everytown released a report that looked at thousands of protests in 2020, finding 560 instances of open-carry and a nearly 6x greater chance the event will turn destructive or violent. This, of course, goes against everything gun lobbyists want you to believe, based on their claim that guns make us safer. But as Justin explains, it's gun laws that make us safer, and their hope is this information will continue to push forward the work on gun law reform.

Shannon Watts is the founder of Moms Demand Action For Gun Sense in America — a self-described “accidental activist” who, in less than a decade, went from being a stay-at-home mother in Indiana to the face of a national grassroots movement with more active members than the National Rifle Association. When Watts launched her advocacy group as a simple Facebook page in the wake of the Sandy Hook school shooting in December 2012, she had just 75 friends on the site but grand ambitions, boundless energy, and infinite chutzpah. Today, Moms Demand Action is part of Everytown For Gun Safety and a political juggernaut, deploying tens of thousands of volunteers and tens of millions of dollars to support candidates, legislative campaigns, and corporate reform efforts. Heilemann and Watts discuss the ways her group has changed the game on gun control, the role of women and young people in the movement, the crisis at the NRA, and why Watts believes the Biden administration will be “the strongest gun safety administration in history.” Learn more about your ad-choices at https://www.iheartpodcastnetwork.com See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.

Hello! Welcome to another episode of Inside The Newsroom where today we welcome Betsy Sweet to the podcast! Betsy’s a veteran of Maine politics and is running for U.S. Senate, where she must defeat Sara Gideon and Bre Kidman in July’s Democratic primary, before taking on Republican incumbent Susan Collins. Our conversation centered around the ridiculous nature of U.S. elections that sees voters bombarded with political ads and door knocking for two years, before it all starts again for the next cycle. And we went deep into campaign finance laws and the history behind Citizens United, which allows corporations to fund candidates in the name of free speech. Up top is the podcast, down below is the post-game, but first my top stories of the week. Enjoy! ✊Picks of the WeekElon Musk — He’s back!

Companies include CNN, the BBC, the NBA and Telemundo. Spread the word far and wide!Who is Betsy Sweet?There’s a saying that in order to know what a person is about, look at what they’ve done. Betsy’s been helping others for almost 40 years, whether it was writing and helping to pass the first Family Medical Leave Act in the country, getting rid of environmental toxins from building materials and children’s toys, or expanding the Human Rights Act in Maine, Betsy’s record speaks for itself. If and when Betsy wins June’s Democratic primary, she must topple Republican incumbent Susan Collins, who’s been a U.S. Senator from Maine since 1997. One of the most vulnerable Republicans in the country, Collins is against Medicare For All and the Green New Deal, and has voted with Donald Trump 67 percent of the time since he assumed office. Betsy 👇A Brief History of Maine PoliticsAs is often the case with many states, there’s a disconnect between Maine’s presidential and U.S. Senate voting history. Apart from Maine’s 2nd congressional district giving Donald Trump a single collegiate vote in 2016, the Pine Tree State has voted blue solidly since George H. W. Bush swept the country in 1988. Meanwhile, Betsy’s vying to become the first Democratic senator to represent the state since George J. Mitchell did so in 1995 — current senator Angus King has a mixed history but was elected as an independent in 2012.Credit: 270toWinThis is a massive part of U.S. politics that’s all too often glossed over, with most outlets labelling Maine a blue state, or West Virginia, for example, a red state, when in reality neither is any color other than purple. That’s why Betsy is running on a platform of issues that shouldn’t be seen as left or right, but rather up and down, supporting the average voter against big-money interests of corporations and billionaires.Where Do Campaign Contributions Go Once a Campaign Ends?It’s a question I’ve always wondered, especially on the presidential level where campaigns can be left with millions of dollars after they’re suspended. The 2020 Democratic primary field raised an estimated $2 billion million between the two dozen or so candidates, including the $1 billion Michael Bloomberg and $315 million Tom Steyer dropped on their campaigns. There are many paths candidates take. If you’re Elizabeth Warren, you might use the $11 million in hand to pay the $5.9 million monthly payment it cost to run your campaign. If you’re Beto O’Rourke, you might make donations to organizations including Everytown For Gun Safety and March For Our Lives, which champion gun control and is something Beto holds close to his heart after the El Paso mass shooting that left 20 dead last year. If you’re Mini Mike Bloomberg, you might transfer a cool $18 million to the DNC, making it the largest transfer by a presidential campaign in recent history. If you’re one of the many senators or representatives, you might transfer funds from your presidential campaign to your congressional campaign, so long as they don’t surpass limits on what donors had already contributed. Which raises the next question: How much does all the ad spending benefit local economies?Ad Spend in the Local EconomyWe know that more than $2 billion was raised by Democratic candidates in the 2020 primary race and the majority of that will have been spent in advertising. This means that early voting states such as Iowa, New Hampshire, Nevada and South Carolina felt a real cash injection from not only the increased advertising, but also from campaigns and reporters spending money on hotels, in restaurants and on rental cars for example. Research conducted by Rebecca Lessum, an assistant professor of economics at Carnegie Mellon University, and Carly Urban, an associate professor of economics at Montana State University, found that increased spending in a state around a primary can increase total per capita earnings in that quarter by up to 25 percent.If you follow elections in other countries, you’ll know that the U.S. system is an anomaly in that there’s barely a break in political campaigning. As soon as the current presidential cycle ends in November, it’ll be a few short months before activity resumes toward the 2022 midterms, if not right away. Compare that to the UK’s campaigning rules, which states that the official campaign period is limited to 25 working days. It’s why Betsy is among a growing number of people calling for limits to the campaign period in the U.S., so not to desensitize voters from the onslaught of campaign material.Citizens United IncPerhaps the main reason why U.S. presidential campaigns are so damn long is the money involved. Betsy and I discussed the need to reduce the influence money has on politicians and their policies, which in turn fuels the endless campaigning. That’s where Citizens United enters the fray, which was a landmark case in 2010 that ruled that political spending is a form of free speech protected under the First Amendment, and opened the door for corporations to spend unlimited amounts of money on political advertising. While the increased spending will inevitably benefit local economies, it reduces the power of each voter and allows lobbyists to buy candidates and elections.But it wasn’t always like this and doesn’t have to be this way. Between 1907 and 1970, a series of acts were passed limiting the influence of money in politics. And in 1971, Congress passed the Federal Election Campaign Act, which strengthened the requirement for candidates to publicly report their campaign finance and put limits on the amount they could receive in one go. But then in 2010, Citizens United paved the way for the open season system the U.S. has today.

"Everytown For Gun Safety" with John Feinblatt; "Independent Map Amendment" with Dave Mellet

A dispute has surfaced over what is and what isn't a school shooting after the mass murder at Umpqua Community College in Oregon. The website Everytown For Gun Safety, launched by former New York City Mayor Michael Bloomberg states 142 school shootings have taken place since the Sandy Hook Elementary school mass killing of 20 children and 6 staff in 2012. Opponents argue gang-related shootings, shootings over drugs, and shootings over arguments are not school shootings, even if the shooting takes place at schools or on school property. "It's not a school shooting when someone goes and shoots a specific person on campus. It's a shooting that happens to take place at school" is that group's position. Do you agree with this statement or do you believe if a shooting happens at school regardless the circumstances it is a school shooting? See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
