You've probably seen the warning on your passenger-side car mirror: “Objects in mirror are closer than they appear.” Which raises an obvious question: Why put a mirror on your car that deliberately distorts reality? Turns out there is a very good reason—and that distortion may actually help keep you safe. https://science.howstuffworks.com/innovation/science-questions/why-objects-in-mirror-closer-than-they-appear.htm We hear all the time that the world has become a riskier place and that the smart thing to do is play it safe. But is that really true? And what do you give up when avoiding risk becomes your default? Economist Allison Schrager explains why younger people appear more risk-averse than previous generations, why safety has a price, and how to tell the difference between a foolish gamble and a risk actually worth taking. Allison is a senior fellow at the Manhattan Institute and a columnist at Bloomberg Opinion. She is author of Worth the Risk: The Seven Myths That Keep Us from Taking the Chances We Need to Take (https://link.amazon/B0cRfL4UU). Right now, there are things you believe about yourself that feel like undeniable facts. Maybe you believe you're bad at something, that certain people don't like you, or that you simply aren't the kind of person who can do certain things. But what if some of those “facts” aren't facts at all? They may be what social psychologist Owen Fitzpatrick calls inner propaganda—stories your mind has repeated so often that you've come to accept them as truth. Owen explains why this inner propaganda can be so convincing and, most importantly, how to recognize it and challenge it. He has studied propaganda around the world, including in North Korea, and his TEDx talk on mind control has been viewed more than 1.4 million times. His latest book is Inner Propaganda: Leading Hearts and Minds Through Turbulent Times (https://link.amazon/B0aZRzMzg). Cats are missing the ability to taste something humans often find irresistible. Oddly enough, cats can also taste something that we can't. Neither is an accident. The explanation goes back to what cats evolved to eat—and offers a fascinating little glimpse into just how differently your cat experiences its dinner. https://www.scientificamerican.com/article/why-cats-taste-no-sweets/ PLEASE SUPPORT OUR SPONSORS MONARCH: Write your own money story with Monarch!

Aidan Grogan is a researcher at the Manhattan Institute. He went undercover at Socialism 2026 — the annual conference sponsored by Haymarket Books, held in Chicago over Labor Day weekend — and sat in on panels that weren't being livestreamed to see what they were saying behind closed doors. In some cases, they were saying considerably more radical things than what made it onto the stream.We talked about: how he got in (registered as Aidan G. with a burner email, wore Marxist pins, didn't iron his shirt, gave up on the disguise by day four); masks required at all times, COVID still surging, it felt like 2020 all over again; the family abolition session — two Yale-affiliated researchers sitting in a circle with Crayola markers on the table, advocating to dismantle the family as an oppressive capitalist institution; Sophie Lewis, Oxford graduate, family abolitionist, currently married; the audience describing the "most culturally celebrated family" as white people, private property, and heteronormativity; the fat genocide panel and the presenter who was herself relatively fit; Sophie Lewis denying any biological basis to sex; the mismatch between revolutionary rhetoric and people with too much anxiety to fire a gun; the old macho Marxists vs. today's conference-goers; Bill Ayers and the career path of a left-wing terrorist (hint: it ends in a tenured professorship); Robert Nisbet's The Quest for Community and why radical politics is a substitute religion for the socially alienated; and the DSA platform calling for abolishing the Senate, the Electoral College, and the checks and balances of the American constitutional order.Read Aidan's coverage → City Journal: cityjournal.orgFollow Aidan → Manhattan Institute: manhattan-institute.orgTIMESTAMPS:0:00 — Intro — Aidan Grogan, Manhattan Institute and City Journal0:43 — What is Socialism 2026?

No one likes the idea of being surveilled. That concern is fueling a nationwide backlash against Flock cameras, the automated license plate readers police use to find stolen vehicles, track suspects and locate missing people. Critics see their rapid spread as the beginnings of a mass surveillance network. Supporters say they reduce crime and save lives. So can communities keep the benefits without sacrificing privacy?Host Megan McArdle is joined by Charles Fain Lehman, a senior fellow at the Manhattan Institute and senior editor at City Journal. They examine what Flock cameras actually see, the data behind the headlines and whether safeguards can prevent a useful tool from becoming a threat to civil liberties.Subscribe to The Washington Post here.

What happens when a country embraces socialism—and could America be heading down the same road? Tudor Dixon is joined by Manhattan Institute fellow and Venezuela native Daniel Di Martino, who shares firsthand insight into how socialism transformed his homeland and why he sees warning signs emerging in the United States. Di Martino explains why he believes Americans still have time to avoid Venezuela’s mistakes, but warns about rising government spending, debt, nationalization, and politicians promising increasingly expensive government programs. Tudor and Daniel also tackle the battle over AI and data centers, including fears over electricity and water usage, whether data centers could actually lower property taxes and revitalize struggling communities, and why moratoriums could drive billions of dollars in investment elsewhere. Di Martino argues that America’s competition with China makes winning the AI and energy race even more critical. Plus, they discuss Venezuela’s oil industry, America’s energy future, Marco Rubio’s record on Venezuela, and why Di Martino believes JD Vance is likely to be the Republican presidential nominee in 2028—even though he personally sees strengths in Rubio’s experience and consistency.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Flock cameras are spreading across America – and so is the bipartisan backlash over privacy, government surveillance, and police abuse. Manhattan Institute's Charles Fain Lehman returns for a conversation about Flock cameras and whether the growing calls to ban them are justified. How does the technology actually work? How are police departments using it to solve crimes and track suspects? What safeguards exist to prevent abuse? And where does the use of Flock cameras cross the line from effective law enforcement into an unconstitutional surveillance state?   Charles Fain Lehman is a fellow at the Manhattan Institute and senior editor of City Journal. He focuses primarily on the public policy of antisocial behavior, including issues of crime, drugs, and public disorder.

Ken and Allison discuss how rent control in NYC may not keep rents lower in the future and explain how the availability of housing could decrease. Part of the issue could be the rising cost of materials and development, while landlords could also end up losing money. They also discuss whether developing a new app could help Mamdani with his grocery stores.

In recent weeks conservative social media has been aflurry debating that nebulous phrase, the Common Good. Does the New Right have a monopoly on the concept of the common good? If we can agree on the common good, does that alone grant us the political authority to impose it? What is the relationship between liberty and the common good? Saving Elephants welcomes two guests to set the record straight for good and all.

CNN told viewers that Michigan Senate candidate Abdul El-Sayed was "distancing himself" from Twitch streamer Hasan Piker — then Manhattan Institute's Jesse Arm read the anchor her own words back on live TV and the whole framing fell apart. Larry plays El-Sayed's FULL statement, the one CNN cut, and it never names Hasan Piker, never quotes what Piker said, and never says El-Sayed disagrees. Then Piker himself goes live to confirm it: El-Sayed isn't moderating on anything, and he's still their guy.

You're listening to American Ground Radio with Louis R. Avallone and Stephen Parr. This is the full show for August 26, 2026. We start by digging into the tangled state of the 2028 Democratic presidential field: Kamala Harris leads the national polling average, but red-state Democrats running in Iowa and Alaska are keeping her at arm's length, and her New Hampshire numbers tell a very different story than the national headline does. From there we hit the Top 3: President Trump's mail-in ballot executive order gets the green light after the Supreme Court forces a Boston judge to lift her injunction, Senator Darline Graham wins her primary to keep her late brother Lindsey Graham's Senate seat in South Carolina, and three Secret Service officers lose their clearances amid leak allegations. We're joined by American Mamas Teri Netterville and Kimberly Burleson to weigh in on whether a private text-message conversation caught on video in public is fair game, sparking a broader conversation about selective outrage and privacy double standards. We also try to put to rest the viral rumor about a government "kill switch" in 2027 vehicles, walking through what the 2021 infrastructure law actually requires versus what's circulating on social media. In Digging Deep, we look at a new HHS-backed study out of Rutgers and the Manhattan Institute examining a possible link between gender ideology and support for political violence, tying it back to Charlie Kirk's final on-air remarks. Our Bright Spot honors Dolly Parton, spotlighting King Charles and Camilla's tribute alongside tributes from Bill Clinton and President Trump, and celebrating her rise from an East Tennessee cabin to global icon. We close with a Moment of Whoa over Colin Kaepernick receiving the Muhammad Ali Humanitarian Award, plus a remembrance of actor Tim Curry, who passed away this week at 80.

Many schools today offer mental health programming, but according to Carolyn Gorman, a lot of school mental health programming is not only wasteful and ineffective but also directionally misguided: School mental health programming often targets students who don't need help, pathologizes ordinary emotions, and fails to adequately help students with the most severe mental health problems.On this episode of The Report Card, Nat Malkus speaks with Carolyn Gorman about school-based mental health. Nat and Carolyn discuss whether and why student mental health has gotten worse, what we do and don't know about school-based mental health programming, what K–12 schools should do when it comes to mental health, whether the mental health landscape in higher education is similar to the mental health landscape in K–12 schools, and how schools can promote student mental health through ordinary routines and orderly school environments.Carolyn D. Gorman is a fellow at the Manhattan Institute, where her research examines how policy changes in the U.S. impact individuals with mental illness.This episode was produced by Elli Lucas.Show Notes:School-Based Mental Health Initiatives Challenges and Considerations for PolicymakersThe Tradition and Limits of Campus Mental HealthCongress Is Treating Schools like Mental-Health ClinicsIt's Time For Schools To Get Out Of The Mental Health Business

On this episode, Razib talks to Daniel Di Martino, a Venezuelan-born economist, speaker, and fellow at the Manhattan Institute, where his research centers on immigration policy, including selection, assimilation, and high-skilled migration. Born in 1999 and raised in Venezuela, he witnessed firsthand the impacts of socialism, including hyperinflation and shortages, which prompted him to immigrate to the United States in 2016. He earned a BA in Quantitative Economics from Indiana University and a PhD in Economics from Columbia University. He writes for publications such as City Journal, and USA Today, and serves on the board of advisors for Young America's Foundation while sitting on New Jersey's advisory committee to the U.S. Commission on Civil Rights. First, they talk about the economic and social impact of socialism in Venezuela under Hugo Chavez and Nicolas Maduro. Di Martino describes the country's decline, including hyperinflation, shortages, and corruption, leading to a significant emigration of 30% of the population. Di Martino also discusses the potential for Venezuela's freedom under the Trump administration and his ongoing work on immigration and economic policy. He advocates for a selective, high-skilled immigration policy in the U.S., emphasizing its economic benefits and the need for a moral approach to enforcement. They discuss Di Martino's report, The Fiscal Impact of Immigration, and how Indians in America fit into that picture more precisely.

Buck Sexton sits down with Manhattan Institute fellow Rafael Mangual to discuss the heated debate over immigration, crime, and public safety. They examine why many cities do not collect immigration-status crime data, the impact of sanctuary city policies, and growing concerns about policing in New York City as political leaders push for changes to law enforcement and public safety strategies.

Christopher Rufo is arguably the most successful activist of the MAGA era. He rose to prominence fighting D.E.I. initiatives and critical race theory. In President Trump's second term, he's had a huge influence on policy, from Trump's executive orders against D.E.I. and the attacks on the Department of Education to the ICE and C.B.P. deployments to Minneapolis. Rufo, helpfully, calls his shots. He has published a guide, “The New Right Activism: A Manifesto for the Counterrevolution,” in which he argued for the value of “agitprop” and counseled that “political life moves on narrative, emotion, scandal, anger, hope, and faith — on irrational, or at least subrational, feelings.” But more recently, in his writing and on the podcast he co-hosts, “Rufo & Lomez,” he seems worried about the new right he has helped build: its attraction to conspiracy theories, its racialist thinking, its internal fissures. So I wanted to have him on the show to talk about the problems he sees on his side, but also to interrogate whether he may have scored short-term victories while seeding profound long-term problems. Rufo is a senior fellow and director of the initiative on critical race theory at the Manhattan Institute. He's a contributing editor of City Journal and the author of “America's Cultural Revolution: How the Radical Left Conquered Everything.” This episode contains strong language.
