American politician (1777 - 1852)
POPULARITY
This is the fourth in a series of eight episodes regarding America's seventh President, Andrew Jackson. Having "saved" the nation at New Orleans, Jackson parlays his newfound hero-status into the territorial governorship of Florida, a seat in the Senate representing Tennessee, and a candidate in the 1824 election to replace James Monroe. But with victory in his grasp, John Quincy Adams, with the aid of two of America's 'monsters,' John C. Calhoun and Henry Clay, conspire to play kingmaker in what would become known (in Jackson's circles) as the Corrupt Bargain.

Estamos hablando de la rebeldía; cómo responden los hijos y cómo deberían responder los padres.A la larga, la comodidad de los padres es muy costosa. Si nuestros hijos no aprenden a obedecer, seguramente ellos y nosotros estaremos en serios problemas.En esta enseñanza aprenderemos:La manera equivocada para enfrentar la rebelión.Las consecuencias de no abordar adecuadamente la rebeldía.El verdadero sentido y significado de la disciplina.
Como padres debemos imitar a Dios en el proceso de la disciplina con nuestros hijos. Esto es una tarea difícil, pero… ¿es una misión imposible?En todo momento debemos mantener la calma y nunca perder el control…¿Cómo podrá un padre descontrolado impartir control en sus hijos?En esta enseñanza se nos enseñará sobre:Qué debemos hacer y qué NO debemos hacer al momento de disciplinar a nuestros hijos.La importancia de buscar una restauración de la comunión en la relación luego de la disciplina.
Veníamos hablando que nuestra meta principal en los primeros diez años en la vida de nuestros hijos, es lograr que estén bajo control. Y… el gran desafío es que los padres estemos bajo control primero, ya que si no logramos esto, serán pocas las esperanzas de que ellos puedan alcanzarlo.En ciertas cosas, tendremos que tomar temporariamente algunas decisiones por nuestros hijos, hasta que tengan la edad y el entendimiento necesarios para ir tomando las propias.¿Cuándo es necesario imponer control o límites en la vida de nuestros hijos?En esta capacitación estaremos aprendiendo:Qué es lo que sucede espiritualmente en el proceso de la disciplina de nuestros hijos.Cómo realizar el proceso de disciplina y reconciliación con nuestros hijos.Maneras prácticas de expresar nuestro amor a nuestros hijos antes, durante y después de la disciplina.
Continuamos nuestra capacitación sobre el discipulado en la familia.Veníamos aprendiendo las maneras de enfrentar la rebeldía en la vida de nuestros hijos.La sanción o penitencia no suele ser un método muy eficaz… Pero no es algo malo tampoco; ciertas veces utilizaremos ese recurso. Lo importante es tener presente que nuestro objetivo no es el castigo de nuestros hijos, sino la corrección para que vuelvan al camino correcto. El orar por y, sobre todo, con ellos transformará realmente la situación ya que algunas veces se trata de una influencia espiritual que necesita de la oración. Y… lo más importante para la vida de mi hijo no es corregirlo, sino amarlo!En esta charla estaremos aprendiendo sobre:Métodos adecuados para enfrentar la rebeldía de nuestros hijos.Lograr que estén bajo control (dirección en qué hacer y restricción en qué no hacer) durante sus primeros 10 años de vida a fin de que crezcan en su autodominio interior.Anticiparles las situaciones a vivir y orar con nuestros hijos para prepararlos para la obediencia, porque ellos también tienen una lucha con el pecado al igual que nosotros.La importancia del control adecuado como una expresión verdadera de amor. El fruto de la disciplina son niños felices y obedientes!
La forma en cómo nos relacionamos con nuestros hijos influye en el concepto que se van formando de Dios. Cuando el hijo pródigo volvió a la casa de su Padre, este lo recibió con los brazos abiertos. De la misma manera debemos actuar nosotros. NUNCA debemos manipular emocionalmente a nuestros hijos para tratar con su rebeldía. NUNCA disciplinemos retirando nuestro amor. NUNCA dejemos de hablarles…Nuestro amor por ellos no depende de cómo se porten. Al amarlos incondicionalmente, estaremos tratando la rebeldía como Dios manda.En esta enseñanza aprenderemos:Qué no hacer para tratar la rebeldía de nuestros hijos.La importancia de afirmarlos con nuestras palabras y de pedirles perdón cuando nos equivocamos.
La disciplina física es un método enseñado por la Biblia. Al ser una medida de estas caracterísitcas, siempre existe la posibilidad de no estar correctamente empleada. Disciplinar a nuestros hijos de forma descontrolada demuestra nuestra falta de sumisión y control al Espíritu Santo. Recordemos que la meta es lograr una corrección en la vida de nuestros hijos, no castigarlos.La razón de la disciplina NUNCA es porque estamos enojados, sino que ante la desobediencia del niño, nuestra obligación es corregirlo.En este mensaje, estaremos compartiendo:La forma adecuada de disciplinar físicamente a nuestros hijos.Maneras inadecuadas de disciplinarEnseñanza bíblica y versículos claves para la crianza.Pautas para mantener el control en el momento de la indisciplina.Consejos y tips prácticos para padres sobre la disciplina de nuestros hijos y el uso de la vara.
Estamos hablando sobre el discipulado en la familia. La importancia de la buena crianza de nuestros hijos, especialmente en los primeros 10 años de sus vidas. El tema de hoy es La Rebeldía.Es de esperar que los pequeños no entiendan el por qué del cumplimiento de ciertas reglas y normas. Nuestro desafío como padres es que ellos acepten nuestra autoridad impuesta y que maduren hacia la sumisión voluntaria.Esta capacitación nos enseñará:¿Qué es la rebeldía?¿Cómo enfrentar la rebeldía de nuestros hijos?Maneras inapropiadas para enfrentar la rebeldía en las distintas etapas del niño.
Para Dios es muy importante la crianza de nuestros hijos. Él nos pedirá cuenta de nuestras acciones. Es un tema demasiado serio para dejarlo librado al «azar» y no hacer nada al respecto.Si eres padre, abuelo, tía… puedes ser de mucha influencia para el desarrollo de los pequeños que el Señor te ha confiado.Estas enseñanzas también serán de utilidad si te encuentras colaborando en un ministerio con niños en tu Iglesia.En este podcast, entrevistaremos a Marcelo y Silvina Bernardini, quienes nos compartirán sus experiencias, testimonios y desafíos.
Dios es nuestro modelo de Padre perfecto. Hay mucho que aprender de él.Por ejemplo: Dios nos ha salvado por su gracia, nuestra salvación no fue ganada por nuestras obras. Esto ha sido un Regalo de Dios cuando pusimos nuestra fe en Cristo Jesús. Esto es una muestra del Amor incondicional de nuestro Padre.A imagen del Señor, debemos amar a nuestros hijos en forma incondicional. Debemos poner límites, corregirlos, pero nada debería alterar nuestra manera de amarlos.Amamos a nuestros hijos, eso es una gran verdad, pero nuestros hijos ¿se sienten amados?
Hoy presentamos una serie de capacitaciones sobre el Discipulado en la familia. La crianza de nuestros hijos es todo un desafío. Al pensar en esto, puede ser que venga a nuestra mente la imagen de un «policía». Pero como padres, nuestra mayor responsabilidad es vivir el evangelio en nuestra casa y hacer de nuestros pequeños, discípulos de nuestro Señor.¿Esto será posible?En esta capacitación estaremos aprendiendo:Los problemas de la familia actual.Nuestro rol como padres en el discipulado de nuestros hijos.La realidad del pecado en los niños.La importancia de tener al Señor, nuestro Padre, como modelo para ser padres.Conceptos y herramientas prácticas para la crianza.
Seguimos entrevistando a Marcelo y Silvina Bernardini.Ellos nos cuentan su experiencia y testimonio respecto a la crianza.Lamentablemente observamos que los gritos, las amenazas, la inconstancia y los conflictos están presentes al momento de querer disciplinar a nuestros hijos.En esta capacitación estaremos conociendo:La importancia de la constancia y la calma en la disciplina.La influencia de los límites y la sobreprotección en el desarrollo de nuestros hijos.La asignación de tareas hogareñas para que los niños adquieran un sentido de responsabilidad y confianza.El entrenamiento en cada etapa de la vida de los niños.Nuestra meta como padres es que nuestros hijos alcancen la madurez.Pero… ¿somos padres maduros? Padres que viven vidas descontroladas, ¿podrán impartir control en sus hijos?¿Identificas algún área en la que no hayas alcanzado la madurez y donde Dios no esté bajo control?
Jim Clark, Executive Director of the Henry Clay Memorial Foundation, joins Kate Savage for a wide-ranging conversation about Ashland, the historic Lexington estate once home to Henry Clay. They discuss Ashland's architectural evolution, the intentional landscape design echoing European traditions, and the site's ongoing role as a gathering place for arts, culture, and community. The conversation also delves into Ashland's layered history—including its legacy of slavery—and current efforts to address this past through initiatives like the forthcoming “Breath of My Ancestors” memorial by sculptor Vinnie Bagwell. Jim Clark shares insights on balancing preservation and progress, from contemporary sculpture installations to inclusive programming like the Traces Tour and the annual Candlelight holiday events, all aimed at keeping Ashland relevant and resonant for today's audiences.For more and to connect with us, visit https://www.artsconnectlex.org/art-throb-podcast.html

This two-part video series provides a deep historical analysis of Moralistic Therapeutic Deism (MTD), tracing its ingredients from 19th-century New England intellectual and social revolutions to its status as America's de facto civic religion. We argue that MTD collapsed when the sexual and moral revolutions forced a devastating fracture between its Christian heritage and its core principles of self-actualization and benevolence, leading to the polarized political landscape of today.Moralist Therapeutic Deism Part 1 - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5eHYMzanOvs&t=4679s @triggerpod @InterestingTimesNYT @JonathanPageau @PaulVanderKlay 00:00:00 - Introduction and Recap00:10:07 - MTD, Chicago, and Obama00:13:00 - Cornell as Microcosm00:25:15 - Tim Keller on programatic secularism00:35:55 - Mainline Christianity00:37:45 - Wokeness and MTD00:47:05 - MTD and Partisanship00:49:20 - Arena vs Agent00:51:00 - Donald Trump 00:56:15 - Nationalism vs Globalism01:03:40 - Who killed MTD?01:05:55 - Competing Arenas01:08:25 - The future of Christian NationalismIn this video I mention:Aaron Renn, Abraham Lincoln, Albert Baker, Alfred, Allen C.

Economy If Canada Wasn't Taking Advantage of America, Why Did They Just Lose 40k Jobs to Trump's Tariffs? according to Reuters, Canada's economy lost 40,800 jobs in July, seemingly belying the Democrat- and establishment media-promoted narrative that Trump's tariffs would upend a trade partnership in which prosperity and fairness prevailed for both the United States and its northern neighbor. In other words, if Canadians already treated Americans fairly, then why would tariffs have a negative impact on Canada? Michael Davenport, senior economist at Oxford Economics, noted a significant reversal from June, when Canada added 83,000 jobs. “Canada's labor market snapped back to reality in July,” Davenport said. In this case, “reality” hit hard thanks to Trump's tariffs on steel, aluminum, and autos. The Canadian manufacturing sector alone lost 10,000 jobs.

In a post on Truth Social, Trump posted a video in which Navarro explained how people such as Alexander Hamilton and Henry Clay have advocated for tariffs throughout the history of the United States. Navarro noted how Hamilton believed that the U.S. “needed tariffs to defend its young industries from British domination.” “Trumpnomics' goal is not only to reduce America's trade deficit, it is to defend American workers and factories against unfair trade practices, while encouraging trillions of dollars in investment in new American plant and equipment,” Navarro says. “The policy is working for America, and no one should be surprised by this.” Navarro continued to explain how Alexander Hamilton was the “original architect of American economic nationalism.” “In his report on manufacturers, Hamilton laid it out clearly,” Navarro continued. “United States needed tariffs to defend its young industries from British domination, and to secure true independence — not just politically, but economically. Hamilton knew that if America relied on foreign powers for manufactured goods, it would always be vulnerable.” “Decades later, Henry Clay carried Hamilton's vision forward,” Navarro continued.
This Day in Legal History: Second Bank of the United States VetoedOn July 10, 1832, President Andrew Jackson vetoed legislation that would have renewed the charter of the Second Bank of the United States, setting off a fierce political and constitutional conflict known as the “Bank War.” The Bank, originally chartered in 1816, acted as a quasi-governmental financial institution and played a central role in stabilizing the U.S. economy. Jackson, however, saw the Bank as a symbol of entrenched privilege and a threat to democratic values. In his veto message, he argued that the Bank was unconstitutional—even though the Supreme Court had previously upheld its legitimacy in McCulloch v. Maryland (1819)—and that it concentrated too much financial power in the hands of a wealthy elite.Jackson framed his opposition as a defense of the common man against corporate monopoly. His veto marked a dramatic assertion of presidential power, expanding the scope of the executive's role in legislative review. By directly challenging a long-standing institution supported by Congress and the courts, Jackson redefined the balance between branches of government. His veto was also politically strategic, rallying populist support ahead of the 1832 presidential election, which he would go on to win decisively.The fallout was immense: Jackson's administration began withdrawing federal funds from the Bank and redistributing them to selected state banks, derogatorily termed “pet banks.” This redistribution triggered economic instability and helped contribute to the Panic of 1837. Despite intense opposition from figures like Henry Clay and Nicholas Biddle, the Bank's president, Jackson remained steadfast, and the Bank's federal charter ultimately expired in 1836.The legal significance of this event lies in its reimagining of the veto as a political, not merely constitutional, tool. Jackson's interpretation of the Constitution, driven by populist ideals rather than judicial precedent, established a precedent for a more active and independent executive.A federal judge in New Hampshire, Joseph Laplante, is set to hear arguments on whether to block President Donald Trump's executive order restricting birthright citizenship, despite a recent Supreme Court decision limiting the use of nationwide injunctions. The American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU) is asking the court to grant class-action status to a lawsuit aimed at protecting U.S.-born children whose parents are not citizens or lawful permanent residents. If class status is granted, it could enable a nationwide block on the policy through the class action mechanism—something the Supreme Court ruling left open as an exception to its injunction restrictions.Trump's executive order, issued on his first day back in office in January, would deny citizenship to children born in the U.S. unless at least one parent is a citizen or green card holder. The Supreme Court previously narrowed three injunctions against the order, but did not rule on its constitutionality. Opponents argue the order violates the 14th Amendment and contradicts the precedent set in United States v. Wong Kim Ark (1898), which affirmed that birthright citizenship applies regardless of a parent's immigration status.Judge Laplante had already ruled in February that the policy was likely unconstitutional and issued a limited injunction affecting only certain advocacy groups. The ACLU is now urging him to expand this to a broader class of affected families, citing the risk of statelessness or undocumented status for tens of thousands of children. The Justice Department, meanwhile, claims the plaintiffs are too diverse to form a single legal class and that the suit bypasses proper legal procedures.Judge to weigh blocking Trump on birthright citizenship despite Supreme Court ruling | ReutersThe Trump administration escalated its standoff with Harvard University by threatening its accreditation and subpoenaing records related to international students. Federal officials claimed Harvard may have violated anti-discrimination laws by failing to protect Jewish and Israeli students, citing a Title VI investigation by the Department of Health and Human Services. As a result, the Education and Health Departments formally notified Harvard's accrediting body that the university might not meet its standards. However, the accreditor clarified it operates independently and typically allows schools up to four years to come into compliance.Simultaneously, the Department of Homeland Security announced plans to issue subpoenas targeting potential "criminality and misconduct" among student visa holders at Harvard. These actions follow previous federal efforts to block Harvard from admitting international students and to freeze billions in grants, which the university is currently challenging in court. A judge had already halted Trump's proclamation barring foreign students, though the administration is appealing that ruling.Trump accused Harvard of fostering antisemitism and "woke" ideology, while the university insists the administration's actions are politically motivated retaliation infringing on its First Amendment rights. Nearly 6,800 international students—about 27% of Harvard's student body—could be affected if the administration succeeds in stripping the university of its ability to host them. A separate lawsuit seeking to unfreeze $2.5 billion in grants is set to be heard on July 21.Trump administration threatens Harvard's accreditation, seeks records on foreign students | ReutersThe U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) announced it will no longer consider a farmer's race or sex when administering many of its key programs, including those related to loans, commodities, and conservation. The decision follows directives from the Trump administration aimed at rolling back diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) initiatives across federal agencies. According to the USDA, the shift reflects its belief that past discrimination has been sufficiently addressed and that programs should now focus solely on merit and fairness.The final rule, signed by the USDA's acting General Counsel, states that race- or sex-based criteria will no longer influence program eligibility or funding decisions, though some advantages remain for beginning and military veteran farmers. For decades, the agency had designated certain groups—such as women and farmers of color—as "socially disadvantaged," often creating set-asides or prioritizations for them. This latest move effectively ends that practice.Critics argue the change undermines transparency and accessibility for farmers of color who have historically faced systemic exclusion. Legal scholar Margo Schlanger, formerly involved in USDA civil rights work, said the rule shuts off a vital avenue for ensuring equitable access to federal support. The decision comes despite the fact that only about 4.5% of U.S. farmers identify as nonwhite or multiracial, according to the 2022 Census of Agriculture.US agriculture agency to end consideration of race, sex in many farm programs | ReutersThe Trump administration filed a lawsuit against California, arguing that the state's animal welfare laws concerning egg and poultry farming unlawfully raise egg prices nationwide and violate federal law. The complaint, brought in federal court in Los Angeles, claims that California's regulations conflict with the Egg Products Inspection Act of 1970, which mandates national uniformity in egg safety standards. The federal government asserts that only it has the authority to regulate egg safety and that California's restrictions burden interstate commerce.California laws passed by voter initiatives in 2008 and 2018 prohibit confining hens so tightly that they cannot move freely. These measures were designed to reduce animal cruelty and prevent foodborne illness. However, the federal government argues that while California can regulate farms within its borders, it cannot impose its requirements on out-of-state producers selling eggs in California.This is not the first legal battle over the issue. In 2014, several states sued California on similar grounds and lost at both the district and appellate levels. The U.S. Supreme Court upheld California's 2018 animal welfare measure in a separate challenge from pig farmers in 2023, further solidifying the state's right to set agricultural standards for products sold within its borders.US government sues California over egg prices | Reuters This is a public episode.

Historian James Bradley has written a major new biography of local resident and the 8th president of the United States, Martin Van Buren. He was the first chief executive not born a British citizen and the first to use the party system to chart his way from tavern-keeper's son to the pinnacle of power.This new biography of Van Buren - the first full-scale portrait in four decades - charts his ascent from a tavern in the Hudson Valley to the presidency, concluding with his late-career involvement in an antislavery movement. Offering vivid profiles of the day's leading figures (Andrew Jackson, Henry Clay, John Calhoun, John Quincy Adams, DeWitt Clinton, James K. Polk), James Bradley's book depicts the struggle for power in the tumultuous decades leading up to the Civil War.
Send us a textImagine a time when a Kentucky statesman would haul barrels of bourbon over the Appalachian Mountains to Washington DC, using America's native spirit to broker political deals. According to Congressman Andy Barr, Henry Clay's famous ability as "The Great Compromiser" had a secret ingredient: Kentucky whiskey that "lubricates the wheels of government."This fascinating historical tidbit sets the stage for our spirited conversation with Representative Barr, who brings a special treat – Blanton's Gold Edition at 103 proof, a Congressional White Oak Caucus barrel selection. As we savor this exceptional bourbon with its honey, dried fruit, and lingering spice notes, Barr reveals the surprising intersection of bourbon and modern politics.You'll discover two congressional caucuses you probably didn't know existed: the bipartisan Bourbon Caucus that advocates for the industry, and the White Oak Caucus working to ensure sustainable forestry for those all-important aging barrels. Barr explains how his Aged Distilled Spirits Competitiveness Act changed tax law to level the playing field for bourbon producers, and shares insights into international trade dynamics affecting Kentucky's signature export.The conversation flows as smoothly as the bourbon itself as we explore India's potential as a massive new market for American whiskey, the "rum cover over" tax provision, and how European retaliation against bourbon exports affects multinational spirits companies. Throughout it all, Barr demonstrates that bourbon transcends political divisions – bringing together legislators from both parties who might disagree on policy but find common ground over a well-crafted pour.Whether you're passionate about whiskey, curious about politics, or simply enjoy listening to genuine conversation, this episode captures the essence of bourbon's unique ability to create connections. As Buffalo Trace ambassador Freddie Johnson wisely notes, bourbon's magic isn't in collecting bottles but in creating memories through sharing – a philosophy that might just be the secret to better governance.Listen now, and raise a glass to the spirit that not only warms the soul but occasionally manages to warm the cold halls of Congress too.

Here's one of the first things heard that first day of Senate TV: "Today begins the video history book. No longer will the great debates in this Chamber be lost forever. What a thrill it would be to watch Henry Clay, John Calhoun, or Daniel Webster in action. Of course, there were no cameras or tape recorders rolling when those congressional giants spoke. But sadly, the sights and sounds of great debates featuring such legends as Everett Dirksen, Lyndon Johnson, Hubert Humphrey, and Howard Baker, men who lived during the age of radio and television, were also lost forever. Now, future generations can have the opportunity to watch history in the making, thanks to videotape. So there are a number of good things about to happen."

Some say that Martin Van Buren was one of themost remarkable politicians—not only of his time, but in American presidential history. Co-editor of the Martin Van Buren Papers, James M. Bradley writes this new biography of the 8th president of the United States . Van Buren was the first chief executive not born a British citizen, and the first to use the party system to chart his way from tavern-keeper's son to the pinnacle of power. Additionally, he was the principal architect of the party system and one of the founders of the Democratic Party, he came to dominate New York-then the most influential state in the Union-and was instrumental in electing Andrew Jackson president. Van Buren's skills as a political strategist were unparalleled—and was coined the "Little Magician"—winning him a series of high-profile offices: US senator, New York's governor, US secretary of state, US vice president, and finally theWhite House. In his rise to power, Van Buren sought consensus and conciliation, bending to the wishes of slave interests and complicit in the dispossession of America's Indigenous population, two of the darkest chapters in American history. This first full-scale portrait charts Van Buren's ascent from a tavern in the Hudson Valley to the presidency, concluding with his late-career involvement in an antislavery movement. Offering vivid profiles of the day's leading figures including Andrew Jackson, Henry Clay, John Calhoun, John Quincy Adams, DeWitt Clinton, and James Polk, Bradley's book depicts the struggle for power in the tumultuous decadesleading up to the Civil War.About the AuthorJames M. Bradley is co-editor of the Martin Van Buren Papers, based at Cumberland University in Lebanon, Tennessee. He is an Adjunct Instructor in the public history program at State University of New York at Albany and was the Senior Project Editor of Encyclopedia of New York City,published by Yale University Press.

He became a frontier lawyer and married Rachel Donelson Robards. He briefly served in the U. S. House of Representatives and the U. S. Senate, representing Tennessee. After resigning, he served as a justice on the Tennessee Superior Court from 1798 until 1804. Jackson purchased a property later known as the Hermitage, becoming a wealthy planter who owned hundreds of African American slaves during his lifetime. In 1801, he was appointed colonel of the Tennessee militia and was elected its commander. He led troops during the Creek War of 1813–1814, winning the Battle of Horseshoe Bend and negotiating the Treaty of Fort Jackson that required the indigenous Creek population to surrender vast tracts of present-day Alabama and Georgia. In the concurrent war against the British, Jackson's victory at the Battle of New Orleans in 1815 made him a national hero. He later commanded U. S. forces in the First Seminole War, which led to the annexation of Florida from Spain. Jackson briefly served as Florida's first territorial governor before returning to the Senate. He ran for president in 1824. He won a plurality of the popular and electoral vote, but no candidate won the electoral majority. With the help of Henry Clay, the House of Representatives elected John Quincy Adams as president. Jackson's supporters alleged that there was a "corrupt bargain" between Adams and Clay and began creating a new political coalition that became the Democratic Party in the 1830s.Jackson ran again in 1828, defeating Adams in a landslide despite issues such as his slave trading and his "irregular" marriage. In 1830, he signed the Indian Removal Act. This act, which has been described as ethnic cleansing, displaced tens of thousands of Native Americans from their ancestral homelands east of the Mississippi and resulted in thousands of deaths. Jackson faced a challenge to the integrity of the federal union when South Carolina threatened to nullify a high protective tariff set by the federal government. He threatened the use of military force to enforce the tariff, but the crisis was defused when it was amended. In 1832, he vetoed a bill by Congress to reauthorize the Second Bank of the United States, arguing that it was a corrupt institution. After a lengthy struggle, the Bank was dismantled. In 1835, Jackson became the only president to pay off the national debt. After leaving office, Jackson supported the presidencies of Martin Van Buren and James K. Polk, as well as the annexation of Texas. Jackson's legacy remains controversial, and opinions on his legacy are frequently polarized. Supporters characterize him as a defender of democracy and the U. S. Constitution, while critics point to his reputation as a demagogue who ignored the law when it suited him. Scholarly rankings of U. S. presidents historically rated Jackson's presidency as above average. Since the late 20th century, his reputation declined, and in the 21st century his placement in rankings of presidents fell.This recording reflects the Wikipedia text as of 00:53 UTC on Monday, 20 January 2025.For the full current version of the article, see Andrew Jackson on Wikipedia.This podcast uses content from Wikipedia under the Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike License.Visit our archives at wikioftheday.com and subscribe to stay updated on new episodes.Follow us on Mastodon at @wikioftheday@masto.ai.Also check out Curmudgeon's Corner, a current events podcast.Until next time, I'm long-form Patrick.

Ever wonder what truly impacts your team or your customers? It's not always the significant, flashy initiatives—the small courtesies leave the most profound mark. Let's discuss how these seemingly trivial moments can make all the difference in your multifamily organization. Welcome back to the Multifamily Collective! Tonight, I want to share a quote that resonated with me: "Courtesies of a small and trivial character are the ones which strike deepest to the grateful and appreciating heart." - Henry Clay. This quote reminded me that while we often focus on large, complex initiatives in our organizations, small, thoughtful gestures can create the most lasting impact. Whether remembering a team member's anniversary or sending a handwritten note to a client, these micro-moments of kindness build trust and connection. The best part? You may never know how much they mean to someone, but those little courtesies can show up precisely when needed. So, in your workplace, with your family, or community, show up with small acts of kindness and watch the ripple effects unfold. If you believe small actions can lead to big changes, please like this video, subscribe to the channel, and tap the notification bell for more insights.

This week on The Learning Curve, co-hosts Alisha Searcy of DEFR and retired MN Justice Barry Anderson interview Dr. David Heidler. He discusses the transformative period of Jacksonian Democracy, from 1829 to 1837. Dr. Heidler explores the political changes, sectionalism, and reforms that characterized the era, alongside the controversial figure of Andrew Jackson, whose volatile nature and strategic political management propelled his rise and image. Heidler delves into Jackson's presidential campaigns, his party's appeal to diverse coalitions, and the significant role of slavery, particularly in the wake of events like Nat Turner's 1831 slave rebellion. He also examines Jackson's relationships with prominent statesmen like Daniel Webster, Henry Clay, and John C. Calhoun; his influence on Indian removal policies leading to the Trail of Tears; as well as the divergent constitutional views of figures like the abolitionist William Lloyd Garrison and the states' rights advocate, Calhoun. Dr. Heidler underscores how history, classic literature, and slave memoirs can enhance understanding of Antebellum America. He discusses the importance of examining the economic impact of immigration and transportation innovations, and highlights the influence of civic associations, religious movements, and communication advancements on the period's social reforms and democratic spirit. In closing, Dr. Heidler reads a passage from his coauthored book, The Rise of Andrew Jackson: Myth, Manipulation, and the Making of Modern Politics.

The first outlet to report on the story was NOTUS, which is associated with the Allbritton Journalism Institute. The Loudoun Times-Mirror also laid out all the known facts and the timeline. And now five of the other Democrats in the congressional primary are calling for Helmer to drop out of the race.In this primary election, a PAC for Republican candidate Hung Cao has become a source of controversy for how it spent its money; another PAC has attracted attention because it was created to attack Democratic candidate Eileen-Filler-Corn.
