Will Con Inc. once again misdirect the base's energy for reform into supporting an unreformed Republican Party vs. Democrats in the general election, in an ill-fated bid to win the entire country, when, in fact, much of it is lost? We're joined by Wyoming activist Darcie Gudger, who explains how a lack of education in primaries has led to Wyoming becoming a RINO haven. The state is under a multi-front assault on its land and beauty at the hands of the green grift, data centers, and transmission lines created to power California. We rely on ranchers in Wyoming for affordable, healthy beef, yet ranchers are disappearing. We're making some headway against liberal Republicans, but they continue to dominate in state and local government because Con Inc. refuses to get involved. Multiply Wyoming's dynamic by 20+ other red states, and you will understand why there is such a disconnect between conservative social media bravado and the lack of boots on the ground in red states fighting for policy outcomes Learn more about your ad choices.

MDJ Script/ Top Stories for September 17th Publish Date:⯠September 17th āÆāÆ Commercial: From the BG Ad Group Studio, Welcome to the Marietta Daily Journal Podcast.⯠⯠Today is Wednesday, September 17th and Happy Birthday to Hank Williams Iām Keith Ippolito and here are the stories Cobb is talking about, presented by Times Journal Cobb elections director not to return after leave Sawyer Road Elementary celebrates 20 years with $7.7M renovation reveal Three arrested, charged in east Cobb Waffle House fight All of this and more is coming up on the Marietta Daily Journal Podcast, and if you are looking for community news, we encourage you to listen and subscribe!⯠BREAK: INGLES 1 STORY 1: Cobb elections director not to return after leave āÆAfter less than two years on the job, Cobb County Elections Director Tate Fall is stepping downāfor good. Fall, who came to Cobb from Arlington County, Virginia, was appointed in late 2023 and has since overseen nine elections, including the 2024 General Election. But last month, she requested leave, and now itās official: she wonāt be back. In her absence, Michael DāItri, a longtime county employee and Elections Prep Center manager, has stepped in as acting director. Why is Fall leaving? The county isnāt saying, and Fall herself hasnāt commented. STORY 2: Sawyer Road Elementary celebrates 20 years with $7.7M renovation reveal āÆSawyer Road Elementary just hit the big 2-0, and itās looking better than ever. Thanks to a $7.7 million renovation, the school got a serious glow-upānew floors, ceilings, lighting, windows, paint, and even a revamped media center. The upgrades, funded by the E-SPLOST VI program, were unveiled Monday during a ribbon-cutting ceremony. āThis isnāt just fresh paint and new windows,ā said board member Kerry Minervini. āItās an investment in our kidsā futures.ā Fifth-grader Adamary Lopez-Cisneros summed it up perfectly: āItās like watching your house get remodeled. It feels specialālike they care about us.ā And honestly? It shows. STORY 3: Three arrested, charged in east Cobb Waffle House fight It was chaos at a Waffle House on Sandy Plains Road last week, and now all three suspects involved in the early-morning brawl have been arrested, according to Cobb County jail records. Sammy Dodd, 17, of Ball Ground, and Daniel Riley, 18, of Calhoun, are accused of climbing the counter, kicking plates, and assaulting a staff memberāleaving him bruised and cut, with pain in his chest and back. Oh, and they allegedly broke 24 plates in the process. Blake Talley-Stewart, 17, of Roswell, reportedly threw a plate of food and a drink into the fray. All three face misdemeanor charges, with bonds ranging from $1,870 to $5,720. We have opportunities for sponsors to get great engagement on these shows.

Break: INGLES 1 STORY 4: UPDATE: Cobb teachers on administrative leave for 'unacceptable comments' on Kirk shooting The Cobb County School District is investigating āunacceptableā social media posts by educators about the shooting death of conservative activist Charlie Kirk. Some posts, according to the district, appeared to celebrate his deathāa claim thatās sparked outrage. Nan Kiel, the districtās spokesperson, confirmed that employees involved have been placed on administrative leave. āThey wonāt be in classrooms or interacting with students,ā she said, adding that the district will report the matter to Georgiaās ethics board for educators. Jeff Hubbard, president of the Cobb County Association of Educators, urged teachers to pause before posting online. Other Georgia employers, like Delta and Childrenās Healthcare of Atlanta, have also fired or suspended workers over similar comments. STORY 5: Georgia Bureau of Investigation promotes Mableton resident The Georgia Bureau of Investigation has promoted Mableton resident Kimberly Jewett to lead the Trace Evidence Section of its Crime Labāa big step for someone whoās been with the GBI since 2009. Jewett, who started as a trace evidence scientist, has worked on everything from hair analysis to gunshot residue. Now, sheāll oversee the sectionās staff and operations. A University of West Georgia grad (biology, cum laude), Jewett is also an instructor for the GBI Resiliency Program. Her leadership? Itās already making waves. Break: STORY 6: Former Republican, Duncan, running for governor as Democrat āÆIn a twist no one saw coming, former Republican Lt. Gov. Geoff Duncan is running for Georgia governorāas a Democrat. His campaign? All about financial stability and dialing down the political chaos. In a YouTube video posted Monday, Duncan didnāt hold back, calling out Donald Trump as an extremist and wearing Trumpās criticism like āa badge of honor.ā Duncanās been on Trumpās bad side since rejecting his 2020 election claims and writingāÆGOP 2.0, a book urging Republicans to move past Trumpism. Now, heās taking on big issues: child care costs, families struggling to afford medicine, and, of course, political moderation. Duncan joins a crowded Democratic primary with Jason Esteves, Keisha Lance Bottoms, and Michael Thurmond. Meanwhile, the GOP race is heating up between Trump-endorsed Lt. Gov. Burt Jones and Attorney General Chris Carr. STORY 7: UPDATE: 16-year-old charged in Mableton killing āÆA 16-year-old has been arrested for allegedly killing 17-year-old David Daniel at a Mableton home Saturday evening, Cobb Police said. Officers were called to a house on Milam Creek Road around 5:41 p.m. for a medical emergency. They found David on the front porch, suffering from a stab wound to his left torso. He was rushed to the hospital but didnāt make it. The suspect, whose name hasnāt been released, was arrested without much incident and charged with felony murder, aggravated assault, and possession of a knife during a crime. Mableton Mayor Michael Owens called the loss āheartbreaking,ā urging the community to support Davidās family and Pebblebrook High School, where he was a student. The investigation is ongoing, and police are asking anyone with information to come forward. Weāll have closing comments after this.

With Calgarians heading out to vote on Oct. 20, what can they expect for the 2025 General Election? Ā On this episode, we're joined by Kate Martin, City Clerk and Returning Officer, and Andrew Brouwer, Assistant Director of Elections, to find out what it takes to keep Calgary's election running smoothly and safely. From the new local political parties to hand counting votes, we're diving into what's new, different and important for voters.Ā
It was a new dawn. Or at least so Tony Blair said, as he emerged from his landslide victory in the 1997 General Election. It's what he would say, isn't it?Still, there was some truth to the claim. It was the end of eighteen years of Conservative rule. Eleven of them had been under the Iron lady, Maggie Thatcher. And whatever her achievements, she had certainly been the most divisive leader since the Second World War, as she made clear by explicitly breaking with the consensus politics that had marked the postwar scene up to her. It was also revealed in the deeply divided reactions to her death in 2013, with tributes from some (including Tony Blair) and celebration (Ding-dong, the witch is dead) from others.She'd been followed by John Major, in a government marked above all by division within his own party, as well as some blunders. Also marked, however, by one big breakthrough: the beginning of a peace process in Northern Ireland which he couldn't take through to completion, but which got some momentum behind it all the same.That's the theme the episode concludes with, because it fell to Tony Blair's government to take that process forward. Its work would lead to the Good Friday Agreement of 1998. That would only be possible thanks to the unflagging support of the governments in both Dublin and London and, indeed, in Washington DC.As well as to the courage and willingness to go out on a limb of an extraordinary woman, the first female Northern Ireland Secretary and someone of outstanding firmness of will combined with willingness to negotiate to anyone she needed to win around. And who was she?Why, she was Mo Mowlam.Illustration: Mo Mowlam.

In this episode, I'm sharing a story from my blog about how neighboring cities shape each other and the surprising ways that history still affects us today. I dive into Lacey's journey to cityhood, from its rivalry with Olympia in the 1960s over annexation and boundaries, to its push north in the 1980s to grow into undeveloped areas like Hawks Prairie. Along the way, I explore how city boundaries have never been neutral, they've historically shaped wealth, services, and political power, often in ways that entrench inequality. I also discuss modern implications, including Lacey's recent studies on annexing older unincorporated neighborhoods and how financial and service considerations continue to drive decisions. And I touch on a broader idea: what if independent boards, rather than city governments themselves, managed city boundaries to focus on efficiency, equity, and community planning? Finally, I'm excited to share how the podcast is expanding to cover local school district and city council races, bringing in new voices, but the same policy-focused perspective to elections that shape our communities today.

Nigel Farage Has Already Won the Next Election | Reform UK Surging Nigel Farage claims victory before a single vote is cast. #NigelFarage #ReformUK #UKElection #JonGaunt #GeneralElection #UKPolitics #GeneralElection Nigel Farage claims victory before a single vote is cast ā Reform UK's surge is shaking Britain's political establishment to its core. At the GB News launch party in Washington, D.C., Farage boasted he will win the next UK General Election and take the keys to No.10.] Fresh from roasting Congress over freedom of speech and speaking with Donald Trump in the Oval Office, Farage says Reform UK is the only party offering real answers while Labour and the Tories collapse into chaos. The polls tell the story. Voters have had enough of the old parties ā copying Farage's policies hasn't saved them. People want authenticity, not cheap imitations. On illegal migration, migrant hotels, and the growing sense that Starmer backs everyone but the British public, Farage has seized the ground. Add the Angela Rayner tax scandal and her refusal to resign, and it's clear: Britain's political class is finished. Reform UK is rising ā and Farage says he's already won. What do you think?

How Singapore can truly be a āwe firstā society. Synopsis: Join Natasha Ann Zachariah at The Usual Place every Thursday as she unpacks the latest current affairs with guests. āItās not āIā or āmeā. Itās āweā. To keep Singapore going, we must be a āwe firstā society.ā This was Prime Minister Lawrence Wongās rallying call to strengthen the Singaporean Spirit ā to put the welfare of the community ahead of individual interest. It came towards the end of his National Day Rally address on Aug 17, perhaps as a reminder that the way forward is not only paved by policies meant to fix problems. PM Wongās first NDR speech after the 2025 General Election emphasised that āwhen the whole is strong, each of us becomes stronger tooā. This message built on what was put forth during the Forward Singapore exercise ā launched by the countryās fourth-generation team of political leaders ā to refresh Singaporeās social compact and build a shared future. But how does this rallying call resonate with Singaporeans? In this episode of The Usual Place, Natasha hosts Dr Rebecca Grace Tan, a political science lecturer at the National University of Singapore, and Mr Jeremy Tan, who ran as an independent candidate for Mountbatten SMC at GE2025. They chat about PM Wongās style of governance, and why he emphasised that Singapore needs to be a āwe firstā society to keep going. Highlights (click/tap above): 4:34 Why Jeremy wanted PM Wong to give Singaporeans the ābitter medicineā 7:45 Were the expectations of big announcements warranted? 9:18 āThe disconnect is something that needs to be addressedā: Jeremy 16:15 Does PM Wongās style of delegating announcements to his colleagues work? 21:00 PM Wongās rally call dichotomy: Empowering Singaporeans, yet slightly paternalistic? 28:06 The big question about PM Wongās We First message: What can be the new approach?

On Tuesday 17th November the Rt. Hon. Professor Shirley Williams delivered the 2009 Alcuin lecture at the Law Faculty, discussing the future of the European Union after the Lisbon Treaty.Shirley Williams, Baroness Williams of Crosby, was one of the 'Gang of Four' moderate Labour politicians who in 1981 founded the Social Democratic Party (SDP), which merged with the Liberal Party in 1988 to form the Liberal Democrats.Baroness Williams was first elected as an MP in the 1964 General Election to represent the Labour Party in the constituency of Hitchin, Hertfordshire. She rapidly rose to a junior ministerial position and subsequently served as Shadow Home Secretary of State for Prices and Consumer Protection, Secretary of State for Education, and Paymaster General until she lost her seat in the general election of 1979.In 1981 she resigned from the Labour Party to form the SDP, along with Roy Jenkins, David Owen and Bill Rodgers. Later that year she won the by-election for Crosby in Merseyside to become the first elected SDP MP. After losing her seat in 1983 she became a familiar face as a broadcaster on In conversation with Shirley Williams and has appeared on the BBC's Question Time more than any other panellist.n 1988, Williams moved to the USA as Professor of Elective Politics at Harvard's Kennedy School of Government until 2001. She helped draft constitutions in Russia, Ukraine and South Africa, served as a UN Special Representative to the former Yugoslavia, and has been President of Chatham House, the Royal Institute for International Affairs.

If you want to get a bit angsty about the voting changes, the one everyone seems to have missed is the one about how it's being changed because we are so hopeless. On the ādisenfranchisedā side of the equation, I have little, if any, time for it. An election is held every three years. Between the last one and the next one that's a lot of days to, at some point, stick your name down for another crack. The fact you can't rock up on the day is only going to ādisenfranchiseā you if you are a bit disorganised. Everyone loves a conspiracy theory so a few jumped on the old "it will favour the right" line. It won't. But here is the bigger question: why can't you enrol on the day? Because we can't cope. Why can't we cope? Because we are a small island backwater with a technological mentality to go with it. I asked Justice Minister Paul Goldsmith last week why we aren't like the Germans. The German elections have their results as the polls close. Watch them next time, it's awesome. We don't, he said, because they're efficient. Why aren't we efficient? He laughed, as well he might. Elections, technologically, are the thing time forgot. Years back we talked of phones and votes and electronic registration. None of it has happened and none of it will. We can't conduct a Census properly, we make a marae a polling station where the CEO is also the candidate and we still have rules being changed around food and drink, despite the fact that got first raised as an issue 100 years ago when they called it treating. We have mail votes at local body elections, despite the fact no one uses mail, so the post office is besides themselves. Our rules around political donations are constantly tinkered with. Elections just appear a bit hard for us. It's true there are issues elsewhere - we don't seem to have the waiting times many do, we are corruption free, and participation is high. But the fact you can't execute a fairly simple and logical idea like same-day registration does remind you that when it comes to modern day efficiency, it's not a ādisenfranchisingā scandal that did us in. It's the gliding-on nature of how we run things. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

The chair of the commission, Richard Buery, and its executive director, Alec Shierenbeck, joined the show to discuss the proposals that aim to increase housing growth and voter participation, among other goals, as well as one major reform that the commission did not advance for voters to approve or disapprove. Voters will be able to vote "yes" or "no" on all five on their general election ballots this fall. (Ep 519)

Starmer's Youth Vote Gamble: Will It Save Him ā or Sink Him Starmer #VotingAge #UKPolitics #ReformUK #Farage #JonGaunt Keir Starmer and Angela Rayner have announced plans to lower the voting age to 16.
