Podcast appearances and mentions of Larry Jacobs

On Tuesday at 4 p.m., some federal funding and grants provided to the state of Minnesota will be paused due to an executive order from President Donald Trump. Minnesota gets billions of dollars from the federal government, with a large portion of it going toward issues under health and human services, education and transportation, though not all of that funding is at risk. NPR is reporting that this funding freeze could be as short as a day. State agencies are trying to figure out exactly what this order means. This announcement from the Trump administration is just one of many that has unclear consequences and leaves a lot of questions on how it will impact Minnesotans. To help bring some context to the first week of the Trump presidency, Larry Jacobs, a political scientist and professor at the University of Minnesota joined Minnesota Now.

Professor Larry Jacobs from the Humphrey School of Public Affairs talks about the passing of former president Jimmy Carter and the impact he made on the country before during and after his time in office.

Now that Donald Trump is the president-elect and Republicans will have full control of Congress, President-elect Trump's government appointees and changes in congressional leadership will determine the policy direction of the incoming Congress and administration. Vin Weber and Trent Lefkowitz from Mercury Public Affairs will map out the new power centers in Washington DC in a conversation moderated by Larry Jacobs.

#197: Dave is joined by the founders of the del Cabo Collective, farmers Larry Jacobs and Sandra Belin. You'll hear about challenges small farmers around the world face today, due to unpredictable weather, changing consumer demands, and rapid consolidation in the marketplace. The strengths of biological controls, often overshadowed by chemical products, are also discussed. Longtime organic farmers Larry Jacobs and Sandra Belin founded the del Cabo Collective of Baja, Mexico in 1985, In addition to thier work creating a ready market for organic vegetables in the US that would support an entire farming community in Baja, they are also known for their expertise with biocontrols that manage pest and disease pressure without the use of chemical applications. https://www.jacobsfarmdelcabo.com/To watch a video version of this podcast please visit:https://realorganicproject.org/larry-jacobs-sandra-belin-organic-supply-chains-integrity-episode-one-hundred-ninety-sevenThe Real Organic Podcast is hosted by Dave Chapman and Linley Dixon, engineered by Brandon StCyr, and edited and produced by Jenny Prince.The Real Organic Project is a farmer-led movement working towards certifying 1,000 farms across the United States this year. Our add-on food label distinguishes soil-grown fruits and vegetables from hydroponically-raised produce, and pasture-raised meat, milk, and eggs from products harvested from animals in horrific confinement (CAFOs - confined animal feeding operations).To find a Real Organic farm near you, please visit:https://www.realorganicproject.org/farmsWe believe that the organic standards, with their focus on soil health, biodiversity, and animal welfare were written as they should be, but that the current lack of enforcement of those standards is jeopardizing the ability for small farms who adhere to the law to stay in business. The lack of enforcement is also jeopardizing the overall health of the customers who support the organic movement; customers who are not getting what they pay for at market but still paying a premium price. And the lack of enforcement is jeopardizing the very cycles (water, air, nutrients) that Earth relies upon to provide us all with a place to live, by pushing extractive, chemical agriculture to the forefront.If you like what you hear and are feeling inspired, we would love for you to join our movement by becoming one of our 1,000  Real Fans!https://www.realorganicproject.org/1000-real-fans/To read our weekly newsletter (which might just be the most forwarded newsletter on the internet!) and get firsthand news about what's happening with organic food, farming and policy, please subscribe here:https://www.realorganicproject.org/email/

Walz, who's nearing the end of his second term as Minnesota's governor, describes himself as moderate. But during his time in office, he's signed some major progressive legislation into law, like protecting access to abortion and gender-affirming care, expanding gun control, and guaranteeing paid family leave. Larry Jacobs, director of the Center for the Study of Politics and Governance at the University of Minnesota, explains what Walz brings to the Democratic ticket.And in headlines: Hamas named the architect of the Oct. 7 attack on Israel as its new leader, stock markets rebounded after multiple days of losses, and Team USA's Gabby Thomas took home her first gold medal with a win in the women's 200-meter race. Show Notes:Subscribe to the What A Day Newsletter – https://tinyurl.com/3kk4nyz8What A Day – YouTube – https://www.youtube.com/@whatadaypodcastFollow us on Instagram – https://www.instagram.com/crookedmedia/For a transcript of this episode, please visit crooked.com/whataday

Finding common ground in Washington is rare and urgent. Rob Portman has a record of passing more than 200 bills that were signed into law by Presidents Obama, Trump, and Biden. His leadership is exemplified by the 2021 infrastructure bill that builds an economic lifeline to the future, support to defend Ukraine's freedom in the face of growing Republican resistance, and courageous defense of his son's decision to come out as gay. In conversation with moderator Larry Jacobs, Rob Portman will draw on his three decades of experience working for two Republican Presidents and serving in Congress as a Republican Representative and US Senator to identify his approaches to achieving bipartisan progress. About the Series: The Nakasaka Dialogues stimulate conversations about the state of public life and encourage progress toward our shared bonds. This event series is made possible by a generous contribution from Humphrey School of Public Affairs alumnus Kiyoshi Nakasaka.

Steve Thomson takes us through a few topics during this hour, including the top movies of the year and the deaths of comedian Tom Smothers and former U.S. Senator Herb Kohl.  Before that, U of M professor Larry Jacobs looks ahead to more turbulence ahead of the 2024 election.

It has already been a wild cycle ahead of the 2024 Presidential election.  What more can we expect now the we're entering the actual election year?  U of M political science professor Larry Jacobs takes us through the candidate possibilities.

In the wake of Donald Trump's role in the attempt to overturn the 2020 election and the Jan. 6 attack on the Capitol, lawsuits in states around the country are seeking to disqualify him from the 2024 election. Challengers to his eligibility invoke Section 3 of the Fourteenth Amendment, which provides in relevant part that "No person shall . . . hold any office . . . under the United States . . . who, having previously taken an oath . . . as an officer of the United States . . . to support the Constitution of the United States, shall have engaged in insurrection or rebellion against the same, or given aid or comfort to the enemies thereof."As of now, there are nearly two dozen states in which litigation is ongoing to bar Trump from the ballot, and that number is only expected to grow. Earlier this week, a Colorado district began a week-long bench trial and, this Thursday, the Minnesota Supreme Court will hear oral argument. And if a state does disqualify Trump, the United States Supreme Court will no doubt immediately hear the case.On Monday October 30, the University of Minnesota Law School held a conference with leading law and political science scholars on "Section 3, Insurrection, and the 2024 Election: Does the Fourteenth Amendment Bar Donald Trump from the Presidency?" Today's Lawfare Podcast is a recording of one of the conference panels, which focused on the political implications of the Section 3 cases.The moderator was Larry Jacobs of the Hubert H. Humphrey School of Public Affairs at the University of Minnesota, and the panelists were Julia Azari, a Professor of Political Science at Marquette University; Ilya Somin, a Professor of Law at George Mason University's Antonin Scalia Law School; and Eric Segall, a Professor of Law at the Georgia State College of Law.Support this show http://supporter.acast.com/lawfare.

Culture war issues are increasingly playing a role in who gets elected to the school board. Over the last few years, school board races have become a political battleground. First sparked by heated debates over mask mandates during the pandemic, the cultural issues of today range from parental rights in the classroom to diversity in curriculum.School board elections used to be nonpartisan. But candidates running in this year's elections have been endorsed by political groups, and large dollar amounts are being spent to sway voters.With a heated competition across 40 Minnesota districts underway, do you know who's on your voter ballot this November? Minnesota has local elections this fall. What questions do you have about them?

We are back after a bit of a break due to holidays and the such. Plus we had to wait for Jason to get through customs after he was detained trying to smuggle acres of Canadian cardboard in his luggage and down his britches. Our feature this month is The Nelvana Reunion panel featuring John Celestri, Larry Jacobs, and Brian Lemay and they talk about their experiences working on the Holiday Special, Droids, and Ewoks cartoons! The panel took place at ‘May the North be with You' in Toronto on August 5th - Thanks to Chris Porteous. Action figure face-off is nearing its conclusion as Andy Preston defends Dengar, Andy Norton loves Luke Jedi, Jason Smith wonders over Warok and Peter Davis delights over the Death Star Droid. Richard Hutchinson has an impossible job trying to choose the winner.  Rebel Briefings is jam packed with wondrous tales of collecting, Richard interviews Tom Scaife & others regarding a Pre-production find in the USA, the mystery of Willrow Hood is finally revealed and so much more Star Wars collecting goodness is discussed. The licencee section finishes it all off looking at Fundimensions and their small but perfectly formed releases. 

The Federal Reserve has a huge sway over the US economy – and therefore the world's. But as well as financial clout, it also has a massive political impact. How does it run – and how do its actions impact us all? Alex Andreou is joined by Larry Jacobs, co-author of Fed Power: How Finance Wins and professor at the University of Minnesota, to discuss for The Bunker USA.  “It's serving the interests of finance and working separate from democratic accountability.”  “The key thing to remember is it is its own operation. It stands alone with its autonomy.”  “It is not beholden to Congress. It doesn't rely on Congress for any appropriation. Its officials have tremendous latitude.”  “The magnitude of its intervention is quite remarkable.”  www.patreon.com/bunkercast  Presented by Alex Andreou. Music by Jade Bailey.

Vad innebär det för framtiden för den amerikanska demokratin? Konflikts Robin Olin reser till delstaten Arizona i USA. Där ute i det torra ökenlandskapet försöker han ta reda på vad som händer när valförnekare får makt. Inför mellanårsvalet 8 november är det hundratals kandidater runtom i USA som liksom Donald Trump menar att presidentvalet 2020 blev stulet. Nu kan de få stort inflytande över själva hjärtat av den amerikanska demokratin, valsystemetRobin Olin träffar traditionella republikaner som Rusty Bowers och Clint Hickman. Republikaner som efter att de vägrat tro på Donald Trumps konspirationsteorier förlorat sina positioner i partiet. Rusty Bowers pressades efter presidentvalet av Donald Trump att försöka ogiltigförklara valet. Men eftersom han inte fick se några bevis på valfusk så vägrade han, ett beslut som kostat honom hans politiska framtid.På ett politiskt möte för Trumpanhängare träffar vi Mark Heley som är övertygad om at demokraterna fuskade i valet och under en biltur i Arizonas öken förklarar han vad det är som får driver honom och varför han är orolig för demokratins framtid i USA.  Men oron för demokratins framtid finns över hela det politiska spektret. David Rasmusson ringer upp två kända amerikanska forskare Lawrence Lessig och Larry Jacobs som båda är bekymrade över vad det kommer innebära att valförnekande politiker nu kan få makt över själva valsystemet.I Arizona åker Robin Olin hem till Martha Chansley, mamma till den så kallade Qanonshamanen, Jake Angeli. Jake sitter numera i fängelse för sin roll vid stormningen av Kapitolium 6 januari 2021, men många Republikaner ser honom istället som en politisk fånge och hjälte.Programledare: Robin Olin robin.olin@sr.seTekniker: Heinz WenninProducent: David Rasmusson david.rasmusson@sr.se

American political life is defined by what can seem like a paradox. Our society is incredibly politically polarized, but our parties are as weak as they've ever been. How else could a reality TV star have so quickly and completely taken control of one of our major political parties?For Larry Jacobs, a political scientist and professor at the University of Minnesota, the weakness of our parties is a major threat to American democracy. But as he explains in his new book, “Democracy under Fire: Donald Trump and the Breaking of American History,” the roots of this weakness go back all the way to the earliest years of the United States and today manifest in our broken system of presidential primaries. Alan Rozenshtein spoke with Larry about his new book, his diagnosis of what ails American politics and what, if anything, can be done to fix it. Support this show http://supporter.acast.com/lawfare.
