What happens when the federal government owns part of a company? That's one of MANY questions about federal policy right now, as the Trump Administration aggressively pushes for stakes — and oversight — of major private companies.This week, the White House announced it was taking a ten percent stake in the struggling technology giant Intel.Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick says the administration is considering similar moves with other companies tied to the defense industry, too. Trump looks ready to turn the U.S. into a corporate stockholder.

The U.S. government is taking a 10% stake in Intel, a deal that caps a two-week frenzy for the troubled chip maker and marks the latest in a series of extraordinary private-sector interventions by President Trump.

In a highly unusual move, the Trump Administration announced the government will take a 10 percent equity stake in computer chipmaker Intel. The new arrangement makes the U.S. government the largest shareholder in Intel, a relationship many economists, policy experts and elected officials say is problematic, unnecessary and signals an overreach of presidential power. Earlier in August, fellow chipmakers Nvidia and Advanced Micro Devices agreed to pay the United States 15 percent of their revenue from selling chips in China. We talk about what those deals mean, the administration's strategy and why experts say this is a step toward fascism.

This content focuses on a controversial school policy in California that requires high school girls to declare themselves "mentally ill" in order to receive an exemption from changing clothes in the same room as biological boys. The speaker argues this policy is a form of social and psychological coercion, designed to penalize people who hold traditional views and to create a permanent record that could jeopardize their future careers, such as in the military or law enforcement. The speaker ties this policy to a broader narrative of what he calls "the left" losing the culture war but seeking to exact a heavy price for dissent. He uses other examples, including an incident in Loudoun County, Virginia, where a Muslim student's religious objection to a school's transgender policy was respected while others' were not, and an event in Canada where pro-Palestinian activists reportedly shut down a gay pride demonstration. He frames these conflicts as proof that the left's coalition of "protected" groups is fracturing, and that a new form of public backlash, amplified by social media, is forcing these issues into the light.

Guest: Tom WeberWhen we talk about weather forecasting, we often picture meteorologists at a green screen or storm chasers racing toward a supercell. But behind every forecast is a global network of scientists, technologists, and communicators working on the front lines of climate and extreme weather. In his book Cloud Warriors, journalist Tom Weber introduces us to the pioneers transforming how we understand and respond to the atmosphere. From data-gathering drones and AI-powered models, to humanitarian efforts in the face of heat waves and famine, Weber's reporting highlights the people pushing weather science into the future while trying to protect the most vulnerable among us.Chapters00:00 Introduction to Cloud Warriors and Weather Enterprise01:42 Tom Weber's Journey to Becoming a Weather Geek07:03 The Importance of the Weather Enterprise15:52 Storm Chasing and Research in Meteorology16:19 Understanding the Weather Enterprise20:17 The Balance of Government, Academia, and Private Sector23:18 Experiences in Storm Chasing with NSSL30:46 The Role of Technology in Weather Communication35:00 Understanding Weather Forecasting and Human Behavior38:51 The Role of Technology in Weather Communication44:46 Advancements in Weather Modeling and AI54:52 The Importance of Weather Literacy and Public AwarenessSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
Municipal bonds have been one of the more active corners of the fixed income market this year. Near-record levels of new issuance have outpaced demand amid uncertainties stemming from shifts in the policy landscape. While institutional investors have long turned to munis for tax-advantaged yields and portfolio diversification benefits, the surge in supply puts the onus on buyers to be selective. Government initiatives and infrastructure funding needs are fueling supply growth, creating opportunities across some sectors and highlighting how the resilient credit quality of muni bonds can add to their appeal to global investors. On this episode of Disruptive Forces, host Anu Rajakumar sits with Jamie Iselin, Head of Municipal Fixed Income, to demystify the contrasting dynamics of the municipal bond market and its expanding role in portfolios. Together, they unpack new policy developments, trends in public-private partnerships, and practical perspectives for investors seeking access to this dynamic asset class.

In this video, we explore the reasons why gun confiscation under martial law is doomed to fail. From the sheer number of firearms in circulation to the logistical nightmare of implementing such a policy, we examine the practicality and potential consequences of such an action. With the Second Amendment at the forefront of the discussion, we delve into the historical context and legal precedents that make gun confiscation a highly unlikely and potentially disastrous scenario. Join us as we break down the reasons why gun confiscation under martial law will ultimately fail.
In this episode we look at Lockheed Martin, Tic Tac and the U.S. Government. With recent accusations that the Tic Tac UFO was nothing more then a Lockheed Martin top secret program and moves by the U.S. Government to grab a piece of government contractors stock we have to ask what is going on? Is this another case of who made who or just titans battling for control of American tax dollars?
Commerce Secretary Lutnick told CNBC yesterday that top pentagon officials are discussing taking stakes in defense contractors like Lockheed Martin as the possibility of nationalization expands beyond Intel. But the resounding sentiment from startups and investors is that this could have disastrous consequences on innovation in the sector.

The predictably slow delivery of infrastructure here has a raft of negative consequences, not least how it undermines our competitiveness in a very challenging global environment.So why are vital projects so slow to get over the line?

GOVERNMENT CUTS RESTORATION RED TAPEFollowing a long campaign from the Historic and Classic Vehicles Alliance and other similar associations, the Government has simplified the red tape around modifying and restoring vehicles.

The government has already pledged to pause changes to the National Construction Code to accelerate housing supply - and now they are fast-tracking their expansion of the First Home Buyer Guarantee.

Stewart Hamilton is 12 months into his role as CEO of Mercury NZ—and despite a record-dry year and a dip in earnings, he's forecasting a billion-dollar 2026. In this episode, he lays out what’s next for Mercury and its investors. How are Mercury and other big players teaming up to secure NZ’s troubled power supply—and are they forming an energy "cartel" in the eyes of the Commerce Commission? Would breaking up the big energy gentailers help make electricity affordable, or is the current model more efficient? Does the Government’s stake in Mercury create a conflict of interest?

Economic Update returns next week to its regular schedule! This week's episode was recorded in June this year and covers topics our viewers have written to us and requested. Professor Wolff explains what deficits are and why the capitalist system enables and invites employers to cause them. He then proceeds to explain how deficits both solve specific problems of capitalism while also causing others. Over time, problems accumulate to undermine the credit of the US and bring economic crisis. Modern Monetary Theory (MMT) is shown to offer one way out of the crisis by changing how money is created.

According to host Tara, the U.S. has been forced into a humiliating position with China, as seen by the increase in Chinese student visas from 500,000 to 600,000. She links this to a "hostage situation" where China is leveraging its monopoly on rare earth minerals to gain concessions. Tara argues that this is not an isolated incident but part of a larger conspiracy, connecting it to the 2021 withdrawal from Afghanistan. She alleges that the U.S. military retreat was a deliberate act to allow the Taliban to take control of the country's valuable lithium mines, in a deal orchestrated by China and profited from by the Biden family. Tara states that the deaths at Abbey Gate were a result of U.S. service members being forbidden from engaging a known suicide bomber to ensure the Taliban takeover proceeded smoothly. She warns that this pattern of "selling out" America's interests is also evident in the weaponization of COVID-19 and the alleged merger of the Democratic Party with the Chinese Communist Party, a trend that is leaving the U.S. weak and vulnerable.

Exploring the intriguing history behind the U.S. Navy's missions to Antarctica and what they were looking for in Operation Highjump.

The Trump administration is deploying a new strategy to speed up deportations. Government lawyers are asking immigration judges to dismiss on-going cases. Then, Immigrations and Customs Enforcement agents arrest people as soon as they step out of the courtroom. The process is often chaotic. And for immigrants without legal status, it's also very risky. NPR immigration policy reporter Ximena Bustillo went to an immigration court in New York City to see how that process unfolds – and found herself experiencing some of the chaos firsthand.For sponsor-free episodes of Consider This, sign up for Consider This+ via Apple Podcasts or at plus.npr.org.Email us at considerthis@npr.org.This episode was produced by Sarah Ventre, Avery Keatley and Connor Donevan, with audio engineering by Jimmy Keeley.
