What does it really mean to speak of "socialism with Chinese characteristics"? Is it simply a matter of policy and political economy, or does it require grappling with thousands of years of civilizational history, philosophy, and culture? In this episode, Breht is joined by Zhao, the mind behind Goods for the People and author of Chinese Characteristics of Socialism: Civilizational Factors in CPC Governance to explore a bold and provocative argument: that while class struggle and material conditions must remain primary, China's socialist path cannot be understood without its deep Confucian, Daoist, and Buddhist inheritance. From Yu the Great's flood control and the origins of infrastructural legitimacy, to the Mandate of Heaven, Da Tong, and the tributary system, we examine how ancient ideas of harmony, moral legitimacy, and collective responsibility continue to shape contemporary Chinese governance and foreign policy. This is a wide-ranging conversation for Marxists, socialists, and anti-imperialists interested in China beyond caricature, reductionism, and Cold War myths -- one that asks how history, philosophy, and material struggle converge in the making of a socialist future, and what China's trajectory might mean for the global path toward communism.

What if writing a book wasn't just about telling your story, but about becoming who you're meant to be? In this episode of Your Passion, Purpose, and Personal Brand podcast, host Lisa McGuire is joined by bestselling author and brand strategist Mike Kim, to uncover the raw, creative, and often chaotic truth behind writing a transformational book. Mike doesn't just teach branding. He lives and embodies it. And in this conversation, he opens up about the mandate to write, the emotional rollercoaster of authorship, and how your book may end up shaping you more than you shape it. If you've ever felt a whisper saying "you have something to say," this episode is your invitation to start. You'll walk away not only with practical steps to begin, but a new way to see yourself as someone already becoming the next version of who you were meant to be. KEY TAKEAWAYS Writing a book can change the author more than the audience. There's a big difference between wanting to write, feeling called, and being mandated. Your manuscript is not a project—it's a relationship. Most people quit in the "messy middle," but that's where the transformation begins. There is no perfect writing process—only your process. AI can't replace your energy, stories, or lived experience. Writing connects you to a deeper identity—one you've been evolving toward. Creating space from social media can reignite creative fire. The "book that writes you" reveals truths you didn't know you were carrying.

Project 2025 begins not with a candidate, but with a playbook. According to the Heritage Foundation, it is a “Presidential Transition Project” designed to prepare a future conservative administration to, in its words, “take back our government” on day one. Its core text, a nearly 900-page volume titled Mandate for Leadership, lays out a sweeping plan to reshape the federal government agency by agency, from the Justice Department to the Department of Education, and to concentrate power more directly in the presidency.At the heart of the project is personnel. Heritage leaders say their goal is to recruit and train thousands of conservatives ready to serve, insisting that “personnel is policy.” They openly advocate reviving a job category known as Schedule F, which would reclassify tens of thousands of civil servants as political appointees, making it easier to fire career officials and replace them with loyalists. The National Federation of Federal Employees warns this could “destroy the administrative state” by stripping protections from nonpartisan experts and giving a president “full control of the Executive Branch for personal and political gain.”The blueprint also calls for dramatic changes to federal agencies. Project 2025's Mandate for Leadership proposes dismantling the Department of Education entirely, shifting its programs to other departments and leaving states in charge of most education policy. It recommends abolishing the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau and even the Federal Trade Commission, arguing that such regulators have become hostile to business. According to the ACLU's analysis of Project 2025, the plan would curb the independence of the Justice Department and FBI so that both are “directly accountable to the president,” a move that critics say could erode the traditional firewall between law enforcement and politics.On policy, the document pushes for deep cuts to Medicaid, reductions in Medicare, and lower corporate taxes, alongside rolling back environmental regulations to favor fossil fuel production, as summarized by reporting on Project 2025 in major national outlets and by policy watchdog groups. Supporters describe this as unleashing growth and restoring constitutional limits. Opponents, including Democracy Forward and the Center for Progressive Reform, argue the agenda would weaken worker protections, civil rights enforcement, and climate policy, while concentrating power in ways that test constitutional norms.As the 2024 campaign season unfolded, references to Project 2025 became a proxy fight over the future of American governance. Heritage insists it is simply offering a roadmap should a conservative win the White House. Legal scholars, meanwhile, are already gaming out court battles over any attempt to purge civil servants or dismantle long-standing agencies without congressional approval.The next milestones will hinge on who controls the presidency and Congress, and how much of this vision they are willing and able to enact. For now, Project 2025 remains a blueprint—but one detailed enough that listeners can see the outlines of a very different federal government if it ever moves from paper to practice.Thanks for tuning in, and come back next week for more.Some great Deals https://amzn.to/49SJ3QsFor more check out http://www.quietplease.aiThis content was created in partnership and with the help of Artificial Intelligence AI

In this opinion column, Nancy Churchill argues that Washington's 2019 Clean Energy Transformation Act created an unfunded mandate on local utilities, forcing small public utility districts to subsidize broad low‑income energy discounts out of their own rate base. Citing data from northeast Washington, she says the burden is landing on working families just above the cutoff line, and that House Bill 1903 would move funding and administration of the program to the state using Climate Commitment Act dollars. Churchill walks readers through how the bill would work, why she believes it's “pro‑rural” and “pro‑taxpayer,” and urges rural residents to contact lawmakers and demand a hearing on HB 1903. https://www.clarkcountytoday.com/opinion/opinion-olympias-mandate-and-your-power-bill/#WashingtonState #Opinion #HB1903 #CleanEnergyTransformationAct #RuralWashington #EnergyPolicy

The Survival of UNRWA and the Flow of Terror Finance: Colleagues Malcolm Hoenlein and Thaddeus McCotterreport that despite investigations revealing corruption and ties to terrorism, the UN has renewed the mandate for UNRWA for another three years; the organization's facilities have been used by Hamas and its schools have been implicated in radicalizing children, yet international efforts to replace it have stalled, while Hamas leadership refuses to disarm or accept international oversight, demanding a Palestinian state as a precondition for any change, with financial support for terror groups continuing to flow through networks in Europe and the Middle East. 1917 GAZA
Senator Mark Kelly and five other Democratic lawmakers—all former military —recently released a video urging U.S. troops to disobey orders from their new commander-in-chief, President Trump, if those orders “appear unlawful.” This amounted to a direct assault on the chain of command. And then: Trump announced all executive actions, pardons, and orders signed by Joe Biden’s autopen were null and void. It lands like a counterpunch in the broader fight inside the government over who actually wields authority. It’s not just coincidence. The Seditious Six exposed the extent to which entrenched bureaucrats and their allies are willing to undermine a duly elected president. The autopen enabled unelected staffers to mimic Biden’s signature and push through actions without accountability. By wiping that autopen slate clean, Trump is signaling that the shadow-government games are over. If this strategy succeeds, it could restore the people's mandate. President Trump and Pete Hegseth are ready for this fight. Let’s hope Pam Bondi is, too.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

In this powerful continuation of our Sacred Architecture series, we move from rebuilding the temple (Part 1) into examining the results of a neglected temple (Part 2). Drawing from Haggai 1:6, this episode uncovers why so many believers are planting much yet harvesting little — working hard but seeing limited spiritual, emotional, or even financial fruit. God reveals a painful but freeing truth: A damaged temple cannot hold what God gives. A leaking vessel cannot sustain a harvest. This episode breaks down the five spiritual symptoms found in Haggai 1:6: • sowing without reaping • eating without satisfaction • drinking without fullness • clothing without warmth • earning without increase These are not agricultural struggles — they are spiritual diagnostics. When the inner temple is cracked, unfortified, or misaligned, the blessings, insights, and breakthroughs God releases leak out before they can produce fruit. We explore: ✔ Why many believers feel spiritually hungry even after receiving the Word ✔ Why joy, peace, and strength often fade quickly after church ✔ Why increase seems to slip through the fingers ✔ Why some people feel spiritually “stuck,” despite trying harder ✔ How Babylon shaped the identity of the returning remnant ✔ Why God commands again, “Consider your ways.” (Haggai 1:5, 7) This episode also examines the three spiritual groups present then — and now: The faithful remnant The compromised The lukewarm multitudes Most believers today fall into the third group: spiritually sleepy, functional but fruitless, free but unfocused. Yet God's call through Haggai is a compassionate but direct divine reset. We end this episode with a prophetic pause: Can God trust your temple with a harvest? Are you rebuilt enough to sustain the blessing you prayed for? Is your inner architecture strong enough to hold increase? Can your walls protect your vineyard? In Part 3, we move from Planting → Harvest → Alignment → Obedience → Stirring of the Spirit, culminating in God's powerful declaration: “I am with you.” (Haggai 1:13) This is Sacred Architecture. This is the rebuilding of the interior life. This is preparation for Jubilee.
Project 2025 is a sweeping conservative blueprint to reshape the federal government, published in April 2023 by the Heritage Foundation and a coalition of right‑wing groups. At its core is a 900‑page policy manual called Mandate for Leadership, which lays out a detailed plan to consolidate power in the White House, remake the federal workforce, and roll back decades of Democratic policy.The project envisions a federal government where the president has far greater control over agencies now considered independent. It calls for dismantling the Department of Education and the Department of Homeland Security, replacing them with new structures that give states and the executive branch more authority. The Department of Education, for example, would be closed and its programs shifted to the Department of Health and Human Services, while the National Center for Education Statistics would be folded into the Census Bureau. Project 2025 argues that this would reduce “woke propaganda” in schools and expand school choice and parental rights.Another major goal is to transform the civil service. The plan urges replacing merit‑based career officials with political loyalists, especially through a revived “Schedule F” classification that would make many federal jobs at‑will appointments. Heritage Foundation officials have said this is about ensuring that the executive branch serves the president's agenda, not entrenched bureaucracy. But critics, including the American Federation of Government Employees and the ACLU, warn it would politicize the workforce and undermine government effectiveness.Project 2025 also targets regulatory and economic policy. It proposes abolishing the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau and the Federal Trade Commission, shrinking the National Labor Relations Board, and merging key statistical agencies under a more ideologically aligned leadership. On immigration, it calls for scrapping DHS and creating a new immigration‑focused agency that consolidates border and enforcement functions. On law enforcement, it argues the Department of Justice and FBI have become “infatuated with a radical liberal agenda” and must be brought under tighter White House control.Experts and watchdog groups stress that while Project 2025 is framed as a transition plan, its scale of change would fundamentally alter American governance. Democracy Forward and the NAACP Legal Defense Fund note that many of its proposals are already being tested in states and through executive actions. The plan's success or failure will hinge on the 2024 election and the legal and political battles that follow over agency independence, civil service protections, and the balance of power in Washington.Thank you for tuning in.

Ribbentrop in London: Gaffes and Alienation: Colleague Charles Spicer describes Ribbentrop's arrival in London as Ambassador with a cynical mandate from Hitler to neutralize Britain diplomatically, characterizing his tenure as a social disaster marked by gaffes such as giving the Nazi salute to the King; his wife Anneliese is depicted as thin-skinned and unable to handle the British press's mockery, while Sir Neville Henderson, the British Ambassador to Berlin, whose desire to accommodate Hitler was exacerbated by his secret battle with terminal cancer, influenced disastrous appeasement policies. 1933

Project 2025 begins with a simple premise: the next conservative president should arrive in Washington not just with ideas, but with a turnkey plan to remake the federal government. The Heritage Foundation, which coordinates the effort, calls its 900-page blueprint Mandate for Leadership and describes it as a manual to “restore the family as the centerpiece of American life” and “dismantle the administrative state,” all within the first 180 days of a new administration, according to Heritage's own materials and summaries by the American Civil Liberties Union and federal employee groups.At the heart of the project are two tracks: changing the rules, and changing the people who enforce them. Heritage and allied authors propose reviving and expanding “Schedule F,” a Trump-era personnel category that would let a president strip civil service protections from tens of thousands of policy-related jobs and replace career officials with ideological loyalists. The National Federation of Federal Employees warns that this would allow “unlimited political appointees without expiration dates,” effectively turning much of the bureaucracy into an at-will workforce devoted to a single agenda.The blueprint also sketches sweeping changes to major agencies. In education, Project 2025 urges closing the Department of Education entirely, shifting its programs to other departments and sending more power and funding directly to states. Heritage authors argue this would curb what they call “woke propaganda” and boost school choice and parental rights. Critics, including the Center for Progressive Reform, counter that such a move could destabilize protections for students with disabilities and civil rights enforcement in schools.On law enforcement and regulation, the document calls for putting traditionally independent entities under direct presidential control. It recommends tightening White House oversight of the Department of Justice and Federal Bureau of Investigation, and even abolishing the Federal Trade Commission and Consumer Financial Protection Bureau. Project authors say this would streamline regulation and stop what they describe as anti-business overreach. Consumer advocates respond that eliminating agencies that have returned billions of dollars to defrauded borrowers and credit card holders would leave ordinary families more exposed to corporate abuse.The plan reaches deep into social policy as well. Heritage's Mandate for Leadership urges major cuts to Medicaid, new work requirements, and options to turn it into a voucher-style program, while also rolling back reproductive rights, LGBTQ protections, and climate regulations in favor of expanded fossil fuel production. Supporters frame this as restoring traditional values and economic freedom. Opponents warn it amounts to a radical centralization of power in the presidency combined with a contraction of the social safety net.As listeners watch the 2024 and 2025 political calendar unfold, Project 2025 now serves as both a roadmap for conservatives and a rallying point for critics. Key milestones ahead include any formal embrace or rejection of the blueprint by presidential candidates, legal battles over Schedule F–style reforms, and congressional fights over agency funding and structure. However those decisions break, they will determine whether Project 2025 remains a provocative manifesto or becomes the operating manual for American governance.Thanks for tuning in, and come back next week for more.Some great Deals https://amzn.to/49SJ3QsFor more check out http://www.quietplease.aiThis content was created in partnership and with the help of Artificial Intelligence AI
Lou on President Trump ending Biden's electric car mandate.
Es ist ein grosses Tabuthema – jemand aus dem Team stinkt und niemand wagt es, die übel riechende Person darauf anzusprechen. Das verlangt viel Fingerspitzengefühl. Und auch das richtige Setting. Linda Hunziker ist Knigge Expertin, berät Firmen und hat Mandate in der Verwaltung. «Das ist ein grosses Tabu, das praktisch bei allen unseren Kursen von den Teilnehmenden thematisiert wird.» Wichtig ist Hunziker, dass man das Thema unter vier Augen anspricht. Auch die Vereinbarung eines Termins zu zweit sollte man diskret angehen. Wäre das nicht Chefsache? «Natürlich», sagt die Expertin. «Aber wer besonders Betroffen ist vielleicht eher bereit, das Gespräch zu suchen.» Wichtig: In der Ich-Form kommunizieren. Zum Beispiel: «Mir ist aufgefallen ... Ich habe bemerkt ...» Am besten vermeidet man darzulegen, dass jemand immer schlecht rieche. «Am einfachsten ist es, man betont, dass einem das Thema auch unangenehm sei.»

Even though we haven't gotten recent economic data because of the government shutdown, there's still plenty of speculation that the next Fed meeting will be a contentious one. We hear from Diane Swonk, chief economist at KPMG, about how the slowing job market and creeping inflation may force the guardians of interest rates into uncomfortable compromises. Plus, a look at why the Trump administration is lowering some tariffs on imported food items from Latin America. And, a chat with McKinsey's Michael Chui about how companies are utilizing AI and what that means for the workforce.

Two years later, he has made tremendous strides, as reflected in Argentina's 2025 legislative elections, in which Milei's party received a clear mandate from the masses. Matt Kibbe sits down with Agustin Etchebarne, director-general at Fundación Libertad y Progreso, to discuss why Milei has become so popular and why he has been so successful in presenting the ideas of Austrian economics to his voters.
