Joe Manchin grew up in the coal fields of West Virginia, the grandson of a miner and the son of a small-town grocer. His worldview was shaped by a place where energy isn't an abstract policy debate; it's the identity of the community and vital for economic survival. Manchin was portrayed as a bit of a villain in liberal circles for his role in blocking or slowing down Biden-era policy goals, including climate policy. Yet he was also the architect of the biggest climate legislation the country has ever enacted: the Inflation Reduction Act. Now, in the midst of the Trump administration dismantling climate policy and basic political norms, Manchin is calling for a return to compromise and “common sense.”  Episode Guests:  Joe Manchin, Former US Senator, West Virginia  Thomas Ramey, Commercial and Nonprofit Solar Evaluator, Solar Holler For show notes and related links, visit ClimateOne.org Highlights:  00:00 - Intro 05:27 - Joe Manchin on his first senate run  10:42 - Joe Manchin on Build Back Better 19:26 - Joe Manchin on how the Inflation Reduction Act was written  22:51 - Joe Manchin on the dismantling of the IRA 27:21 - Joe Manchin on the effects of climate  31:02 - Joe Manchin on West Virginia's transition to clean energy  37:10 - Joe Manchin on the state of the country  38:10 - Joe Manchin on how to make the country better  42:56 - Joe Manchin on working together  44:20 - Thomas Ramey on growing up in West Virginia 50:08 - Thomas Ramey on how he talks about solar energy Support Climate One by going ad-free!

Send us a textA room of 2,300 people fell completely silent—and not just any room, a ballroom filled with passionate Italians—while Andrea Bocelli sang “Mamma.” That shared hush becomes our doorway into a rich conversation with John F. Calvelli about what truly unites us: heritage, humility, and the courage to build bridges across differences.John wears two hats that reveal one mission. At the Wildlife Conservation Society, he champions global conservation from the Bronx Zoo to the farthest field sites. As the new chairman of the National Italian American Foundation, he's focused on three priorities: energizing young professionals through mentorship and community, deepening U.S.–Italy ties in both culture and business, and building sustainable funding so those ambitions endure. We dive into the electric momentum of NIAF's 50th anniversary gala—honoring a 104‑year‑old WWII veteran, watching a new generation sing along, and witnessing a respectful, cross‑party conversation with Speaker Kevin McCarthy, Senator Joe Manchin, and Maria Bartiromo that modeled what civic grace can look like.Threaded through it all is a leadership philosophy shaped by family tables, immigrant grit, and St. Francis's wisdom: in giving we receive. John explains why stories move people more than statistics and how that insight helped power wins like naming the bison America's national mammal—a coalition effort spanning Native nations, policymakers, and the conservation community, rooted in the Bronx Zoo's historic role in bringing bison back from the brink. We explore how community and entertainment—film festivals, documentaries, shared meals—turn values into action, whether the goal is cultural pride or wildlife protection.If this conversation resonates, tap follow, share it with a friend who cares about culture or conservation, and leave a quick review to help more listeners find the show.

Tara breaks down the shocking aftermath of New York's latest election — a turning point Democrats are celebrating as the triumph of a “new America.” With foreign-born voters driving socialist victories and native-born working-class citizens voting the other way, Tara exposes how this was never a grassroots uprising, but the culmination of a decades-long demographic and political strategy. From Zohran Mamdani's win to the looming fight over the filibuster and amnesty, this episode uncovers the real battle shaping America's future — and why losing it could mean the end of the nation as we know it. *The ballot box is changing — but who's really casting the votes?* new york election, zohran mamdani, replacement voters, foreign-born electorate, socialism in america, democratic strategy, immigration politics, filibuster fight, amnesty debate, voter demographics, marxism, political transformation, tara podcast Tara dives into the data behind New York's latest election, revealing a stark divide between native-born and foreign-born voters. According to new polling, Zohran Mamdani captured over 60% of the foreign-born vote while losing among native-born Americans — a sign, Tara argues, of the Democratic Party's long-term “replacement strategy.” She dissects how nearly half of New York City's population is now foreign-born and one in five residents can't speak English, reshaping the state's political identity. The episode connects these shifts to national stakes: the Democrats' push for amnesty, the near loss of the filibuster, and how two senators — Joe Manchin and Kyrsten Sinema — may have prevented a permanent one-party system. Tara warns that without resistance, similar outcomes could spread nationwide, fundamentally transforming America's political landscape.

Tara exposes the dark side of political power in Washington — the threats, the intimidation, and the near-collapse of America's constitutional balance. In this gripping episode, she revisits how two Democrats, Joe Manchin and Kyrsten Sinema, stood between the nation and permanent one-party rule by refusing to end the Senate filibuster. Tara plays shocking excerpts from Manchin's own interview, where he describes death threats, stalking, and organized activist campaigns funded by his own party to force him into submission. From the push for amnesty to the trillion-dollar “Build Back Better” plan, Tara reveals how close America came to losing its last safeguard — and why keeping the filibuster may have saved the republic. *They couldn't buy his vote — so they tried to break him.* filibuster, joe manchin, kyrsten sinema, build back better, amnesty bill, democratic pressure campaign, political intimidation, one-party rule, biden administration, washington corruption, activist funding, tara podcast Tara unpacks Senator Joe Manchin's shocking revelations about the Democrat-led campaign to eliminate the Senate filibuster — and how his refusal may have saved America from permanent one-party control. She highlights the organized intimidation campaign Manchin faced, including paid protesters, kayakers surrounding his boat, and threats against his family. The goal: to pressure him into supporting the “Build Back Better” bill and amnesty for millions of illegal immigrants. Tara draws parallels between these events and the Democrats' larger agenda — to consolidate power by reshaping voter demographics and silencing dissent. Joined by listener commentary, she also contrasts today's political and economic climate with earlier generations, warning that Americans must not make it easier for authoritarianism to take root.

Tara breaks down how America came within inches of losing its electoral freedom — from federalized elections and Supreme Court packing to unconstitutional, race-based districts that handed Democrats decades of artificial power. But now, the tide may finally be turning. With the Supreme Court signaling an end to race-based redistricting, Republicans could reclaim as many as 20 seats long denied to them. Tara exposes how manipulated census data, deep-state influence, and Bush-era control kept the GOP from challenging the system — until Trump took the reins. Could this be the moment America redistricts its way back to fairness and freedom? “The map is changing — and with it, America's future.” In this explosive episode, Tara reveals how Democrats nearly reshaped the U.S. forever through federalized elections, court packing, and racially engineered voting districts. Thanks to key holdouts like Joe Manchin and Kyrsten Sinema, the filibuster survived — but the fight isn't over. The Supreme Court may soon strike down race-based redistricting, a decision that could shift up to 20 seats to Republicans and end decades of imbalance. Tara connects the dots between manipulated census data, suppressed GOP redistricting efforts under Bush-era control, and Trump's push to reclaim fair representation. As Democrats face declining support and growing exposure, Tara warns that desperation could drive escalating unrest — but also herald the dawn of a freer political era.

In Dead Center—part memoir, part manifesto—he makes a passionate case for a new, solutions-oriented politics rooted in common sense. Reflecting on the decisions that shaped him as a leader and public servant, he shares never-before-told stories from inside the Senate and the White House, along with fresh insight into how government can deliver real results for the American people.  It's a reminder that leadership still matters, character still counts, and common sense should never go out of style.

Is Permitting Reform About to Break Through?

Columbia Energy Exchange

Last year, an energy permitting reform bill sponsored by Senators Joe Manchin and John Barrasso passed out of committee but failed to gain full support in the US Senate. Since then, rising energy costs and infrastructure backlogs have only heightened pressure on Congress to take another run at reforming the National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA). As a result, momentum behind permitting reform is building again. Several legislative efforts are underway, most notably the bipartisan SPEED Act, which would change NEPA requirements in order to streamline the permitting process. It would also set limits on judicial review.  So how likely is meaningful permitting reform, this time around? How would it enable timely development of energy infrastructure without jeopardizing environmental concerns? And what might make it feasible to supporters of fossil and renewable energy alike? This week, Bill Loveless speaks to Jim Connaughton about shifting motivations for permitting reform in DC, and whether policymakers can find enough common ground to push reforms forward. Jim is the CEO of JLC Strategies and the former chairman and CEO of Nautilus Data Technologies. During the George W. Bush administration, he served as chairman of the White House Council on Environmental Quality and directed the White House Office of Environmental Policy.  Credits: Hosted by Jason Bordoff and Bill Loveless.

Join Jim and Greg for the Wednesday 3 Martini Lunch as they rip into ABC News over its repulsive coverage of Charlie Kirk's accused killer and slam Democrats for overwhelmingly embracing socialism. They also applaud former West Virginia Sen. Joe Manchin for slamming his former Democrat colleagues who attacked our system of government in the pursuit of power.First, they welcome Sen. Manchin blasting President Obama, President Biden, and Senate Democratic leaders like Harry Reid and Chuck Schumer for systematically trying to "weaken the very guardrails that have protected our democracy for generations—all in the name of advancing their agenda." This includes tactics like killing the filibuster on nominations and trying to kill the legislative filibuster. Jim says Manchin is right to point it out. But are any Democrats listening?Next, they dig into the charges filed against the alleged murderer of Turning Point USA founder Charlie Kirk and torch ABC News reporter Matt Gutman for gushing about the “touching” text exchanges between the accused killer and his partner as the shooter seemed to confess. Jim unloads on Gutman and the entire mainstream media, which seem to have perfect clarity on right and wrong when someone on the right is accused. But when a lefty is charged, all of a sudden the media lose the plot and just find everything so confusing.Finally, they're disgusted but not surprised to find that Democrats are overwhelmingly supportive of socialism. CNN is reporting that Democrats are now a net +36 on socialism and a net -13 on capitalism. This is now the mainstream position of the Democratic Party. Please visit our great sponsors:If your business can't adapt in real-time, you're in a world of hurt.  Get the free e-book “Navigating Global Trade: 3 Insights for Leaders” from NetSuite by Oracle.  Download today at https://NetSuite.com/MARTINISleep on an award-winning mattress from Brooklyn Bedding.

This Day in Legal History: First SCOTUS DecisionOn August 11, 1792, the United States Supreme Court issued its first reported decision in Georgia v. Brailsford. The case arose from the complex aftermath of the Revolutionary War, when questions about debts owed to British creditors came before the new federal judiciary. The State of Georgia had enacted laws seizing debts owed to British subjects, while the 1783 Treaty of Paris required those debts to be honored. The dispute involved a British creditor, Samuel Brailsford, seeking repayment from a Georgia resident. Georgia argued that its confiscation laws extinguished the debt, but the Court was faced with balancing state statutes against treaty obligations. In its decision, the Court reaffirmed that treaties made under the authority of the United States were binding on the states, even when they conflicted with local laws. This early opinion helped cement the principle of federal supremacy in foreign affairs and treaty enforcement. It also demonstrated the Court's willingness to decide politically sensitive disputes involving state sovereignty. The ruling, authored before the modern opinion-writing style developed, was short and straightforward, focusing narrowly on the facts and legal issue. It set an early precedent for judicial interpretation of the Constitution's Supremacy Clause. Georgia v. Brailsford thus marked the Court's entry into shaping the balance between state power and federal authority. The case also foreshadowed the judiciary's role in resolving conflicts between domestic law and international agreements. While not as well-known as later landmark cases, its legacy lies in establishing the Court as a neutral arbiter in disputes implicating both constitutional structure and international commitments.President Donald Trump is expected to nominate David Rosner, a Democrat currently serving on the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC), as its next chair. The agency oversees decisions on natural gas export facilities and major power infrastructure, making it central to Trump's energy agenda. Rosner, appointed to FERC by President Joe Biden, previously worked for former Senator Joe Manchin, who was known for supporting coal and gas interests. White House officials say Rosner aligns with Trump's priorities, despite his party affiliation. FERC was a flashpoint during Trump's first term, when his appointees attempted—but failed—to push policies favoring fossil fuel power generation. Today, surging energy demand from data centers has renewed attention on expanding cheap power sources. In July, the country's largest electric grid saw record power auction revenues of $16.1 billion, highlighting the strain on supply. Rosner's promotion would follow the departure of Republican Mark Christie as chair, signaling a bipartisan leadership shift at the influential regulator.Trump to Tap Democrat to Lead US Agency Overseeing Gas, PowerA closely watched trial began today in San Francisco over President Trump's deployment of National Guard troops to assist immigration raids and manage protests in Los Angeles. California argues the move violates the Posse Comitatus Act of 1878, which limits the use of the military in civilian law enforcement. The dispute centers on Trump's June order sending 700 Marines and 4,000 National Guard members to the city after mass immigration raids sparked unrest. State officials, including Governor Gavin Newsom, claim about 2,000 Guard members are still aiding U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agents in raids and restricting civilian movement. The administration denies the troops engaged in law enforcement, saying they were protecting federal property and ICE personnel. The three-day, non-jury trial before U.S. District Judge Charles Breyer could set limits on Trump's authority to deploy the military in U.S. cities. California is also seeking to regain control of its National Guard from federal command. A ruling against the administration could have lasting implications for the president's power to use military forces domestically.Landmark trial kicks off over Trump's use of US military in policing role | ReutersU.S. law firms saw stronger-than-expected business in the second quarter of 2025, with overall demand rising 1.6% from the same period last year and billing rates climbing 7.4%, according to the Thomson Reuters Institute. Clients sought legal guidance on shifting tariffs, regulatory changes, and an unsteady economy, partly fueled by President Trump's trade policies. The growth was uneven—top 100 firms experienced a 0.6% drop in demand, while the next-largest 100 grew 2.6% and midsized firms rose 3.5%, suggesting clients may be opting for lower-cost or more specialized services. Practice area results also varied: litigation demand rose 2%, corporate work 1.3%, mergers and acquisitions 0.3%, while intellectual property fell 1.4%. The industry's Financial Index score hit 55, up four points from Q1, but the report warned of risks ahead as overhead costs climb, collections dip, and productivity lags 1.3% year-over-year. Unpaid bills and write-downs could create further financial pressure if trends persist. Law firms stayed busy in second quarter but uncertainty looms - report | ReutersThe U.S. Environmental Protection Agency has moved to terminate its labor contract with the union representing 8,000 of its employees, according to the union's president. The action is part of President Trump's broader push to limit collective bargaining rights across federal agencies. Trump's March executive order seeks to remove such rights at more than 30 agencies, including the EPA, and is being challenged in court by unions that argue it violates free speech and bargaining obligations. The EPA says it is acting in compliance with the order, which would make it easier for agencies to discipline or dismiss workers. The move comes as the EPA plans to reduce its workforce by at least 23% and close its scientific research office as part of broader federal downsizing. Unions, including the American Federation of Government Employees, are suing to stop the effort, but a recent federal appeals court decision allowed the administration to proceed with exempting some agencies from negotiating with unions. The union representing EPA employees has pledged a legal response.Trump's environment agency terminates contract with unionized employees | Reuters This is a public episode.

What's it like behind the scenes of the independent movement? What does the future look like and who will be the candidates that emerge as leaders of the movement? They're important questions we've explored now for years and this week we've got a rare opportunity to share with you, the true independent Americans.This week, our host Paul Rieckhoff (@PaulRieckhoff) was joined by past guest and independent veteran candidate for Senate from Idaho Todd Achilles, California candidate for Governor Ethan Penner, and Tennessee's Khalil Ekulona for a discussion about what the future of the movement looks like and how it will take shape. It was part of a fascinating day of panel discussions featuring leaders from Forward Party, Veterans for All Voters and many other leading organizations in the independent space as well as a session with Joe Manchin and his daughter, former Colorado Congressman Ken Buck and many other notable speakers. The event was organized by our good friends at the Independent Center and was hopefully the first of many conversations like this. Not everyone that was there agreed about how to approach the challenges of the future, but we all agree on one thing. Independents are the future. And this event was in part about independents planting a flag in Washington DC and claiming what is rightfully all of ours.
