In this episode of The P.A.S. Report, Professor Nick Giordano breaks down the “One Big Beautiful Bill” that just passed the House and now goes to the Senate through budget reconciliation. While the bill offers some middle-class tax relief, work requirements, and border enforcement, it fails on fiscal responsibility, limited government, and bureaucratic overreach. Professor Giordano exposes how the bill expands federal power, increases spending, and continues rewarding the same agencies that have abused their authority. He makes it clear that real reform is essential and getting back to the principles of fiscal responsibility and limited government is the real way to usher in the next golden age of America. Episode Highlights: Why Congress hasn't passed a real budget since 1997 and how reconciliation is being abused The good: No tax on tips or overtime, Trump tax cuts extended, border wall funded, work requirements imposed for some entitlement programs like Medicaid and SNAP The bad and ugly: Debt ceiling hike with no reform, departments and agencies continue to see funding increases, and continued bureaucratic bloat

While Elon Musk and his "Department of Government Efficiency" are slashing areas of federal spending to combat the current national debt ($36 trillion) and the current fiscal year's deficit ($711 billion), we remember going through something similar back in 2010: Simpson-Bowles, known as "The National Commission on Fiscal Responsibility and Reform." There were 12 members of Congress and 6 private citizens on the commission. In the end, they failed to get the required super-majority vote to advance their recommendations to Congress. Michael today speaks with Congresswoman Jan Schakowsky (D-IL), who sat on the committee, and voted against the commission's recommendations 15 years ago. Then, hear from the audience on the current fiscal state of the United States. Original air date 7 February 2025.

Nov 22 2024 - Advice on how to balance festive cheer with fiscal responsibility and avoid holiday debt by VOCM

President-elect Trump recently announced that entrepreneurs Elon Musk and Vivek Ramaswamy will lead the Department of Government Efficiency. Musk had forecast the idea in the tail end of the presidential election, championing a commission focused on cutting government spending and regulation. In a statement posted to Truth Social, the president-elect said DOGE would “pave the way for my administration to dismantle government bureaucracy, slash excess regulations, cut wasteful expenditures, and restructure federal agencies.” For his part, Musk said “this will send shockwaves through the system, and anyone involved in government waste, which is a lot people.”Government waste has long been a focus for Republicans in Washington. The phrase “waste, fraud, and abuse” often generates a chuckle in DC circles, given how much the federal bureaucracy, government spending, and the national debt have grown despite decades of professed fiscal hawkishness. While critics of Trump and Musk are rolling their eyes at what they perceive as a toothless commission, proponents welcome the focus on government efficiency from the president-elect and the world's richest man, and are optimistic that Musk and Ramaswamy's expertise in the business world would bring much-needed outside perspectives on how to optimize the federal government.The Foundation for American Innovation has operated a project on government efficiency and tech modernization since 2019. FAI fellows just published a new paper on the topic of “An Efficiency Agenda for the Executive Branch.” To discuss DOGE, the challenges of streamlining bureaucracy, how AI might play a role in the efforts, and what Congress can do to help make DOGE a success, Evan is joined by Sam Hammond, Senior Economist at FAI and Dan Lips, Head of Policy at FAI. For a quick take on FAI's recommendations, check out Dan's oped in The Hill  linked here.

Last week, United States presidential candidates Kamala Harris and Donald Trump delivered hour-long speeches outlining their economic policies for the country if they win in November. This week on a special episode of Capitalisn't, Bethany and Luigi weigh in on the candidates' economic proposals. What makes this discussion particularly urgent is that neither candidate is espousing a traditional Republican or Democratic platform. Further, despite the length of their respective speeches, there were few specifics. Instead, both candidates are running on "vibes" more than detailed manifestos. With just under five weeks to go before Election Day, Bethany and Luigi sift through the proposals around taxes, tariffs, price gouging, and the “Opportunity Economy,” helping us separate the substance from the slogans.

Join the community:  https://www.patreon.com/politicsandreligion   It would mean so much if you could leave us a review:  https://ratethispodcast.com/goodfaithpolitics    In this edition, we explore the nuances of conservative values and Christian beliefs amidst our politically charged environment. To get clarity on what it means to be a conservative and a Christian, it requires NOT surrendering to the extremists who monopolize conversations around politics and religion. Our discussion dives into the foundational principles of conservatism, such as: Individual Freedom,  Limited Government,  Rule of Law,  Peace through Strength,  Fiscal Responsibility,  Free Markets,  and *Human Dignity,  ...contrasting these with the divisive and aggressive tactics often employed in Trump-era politics. Contrary to what passes for “conservative” in today's political and media landscape, we'll look at the way true conservatism respects the U.S. Constitution and promotes a healthy, engaged citizenry, devoid of blanket vilification via broad generalizations and dehumanization. We'll also give a sneak peak into Part II of this discussion on Christian values, specifically targeting the misalignment of Trump's actions with biblical teachings. So, yeah, this one might tweak some beaks!   02:49 The Impact of Extremism on Public Discourse;  13:40 Exploring the True Meaning of Conservatism;  14:16 Principles of Conservatism vs. Trumpism;  27:29 The Importance of Human Dignity in Conservatism;  34:35 Teaser for the Next Episode: Christianity vs Trumpism   Let us know what you think.

Embedded within broader bills to fund foreign wars, notably in Ukraine, this legislation authorizes the U.S. President to seize Russian governmental assets totaling about $300 billion from U.S. and European banks, reallocating them to support the war effort in Ukraine. Wright raises critical questions about the wisdom of such financial interventions, exploring the potential repercussions for the international trust in the U.S. financial system. The discussion outlines the crucial role of the U.S. dollar as both a transaction and a reserve currency, explaining how its stability has underpinned global economic security since World War II. Through a thought experiment involving hypothetical transactions between Guyana and Uruguay, Wright illustrates the fundamental dynamics of international trade and the pivotal role of the U.S. dollar. He expresses concern that the actions under the REPO Act could erode global confidence in the dollar, potentially leading to financial instability and diminishing the economic advantages currently enjoyed by the U.S. Wright warns that while the measures are intended to punish Russia, they could inadvertently accelerate efforts by BRIC nations to develop alternatives to the dollar-centric financial system, challenging U.S. economic dominance. He concludes with a call for fiscal responsibility and strategic financial management to preserve the dollar's status and ensure continued stability in the global financial landscape. This episode is a must-listen for anyone interested in understanding the broader implications of current U.S. foreign and financial policies on the global stage.

The episode opens with a discussion on the U.S. Senate's decision to keep Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas in office despite controversies over his handling of immigration policies, forecasting an impending crisis with potential mass migrations from Venezuela.

Furthermore, Wright discusses the contentious move by House Speaker Mike Johnson to advance a significant aid package for Ukraine, stirring debate over national priorities and fiscal responsibility. The episode also covers the Biden administration's initiation of a tariff war against China and Russia, with potential impacts on American consumers and the broader economic landscape due to increased costs of essential materials like steel and aluminum. Throughout the episode, Wright blends detailed reporting with sharp analysis, examining the intersection of U.S. domestic policy with global geopolitical dynamics, and questioning the effectiveness and ethical implications of these high-stakes decisions.
