Today a Senate Committee voted to advance former Oregon Representative Lori Chavez-DeRemer, Trump's controversial pick for Labor Secretary, to a full floor vote, so Americans would do well to begin preparing for an impending onslaught of labor-related news, especially since, as my colleague Mike Watson will likely make clear in this episode, the new courtship of Big Labor coming from the right made the unlikely pick of Chavez-DeRemer a possibility. Adding to the drama was the no vote from Kentucky Sen. Rand Paul, who, not coincidentally, earlier in February introduced the National Right to Work Act, a conservative-backed bill that among other things, makes paying union dues voluntary. Joining us to discuss that development, and his organization's work on the act itself, is Jace White, Director of Federal Affairs at the National Right to Work Committee. Links: Dr. Rand Paul Reintroduces National Right to Work ActNational Right To Work FoundationWhy Is Josh Hawley Bringing Obamanomics Back from the Grave?It doesn't go well when Republicans put Big Labor in the CabinetFollow us on our socials: Twitter: @capitalresearchInstagram: @capitalresearchcenterFacebook: www.facebook.com/capitalresearchcenterYouTube: @capitalresearchcenter

Almost everyone can look at the education landscape in America today and see that something has gone very, very wrong. Spending per student has increased, and there is no evidence that this increased spending has improved student performance outcomes. But what if there are factors eating up the budget and keeping the student performance outcomes stagnant? Factors such as the rise of teachers unions in non-right-to-work states, for example?Joining us today is Corey DeAngelis, a school choice evangelist who is a senior fellow at the American Culture Project, to discuss a recently released report he helped author that looks at just that, the administrative bloat in the public school system and how it correlates to increased teacher union influence. Also joining is CRC colleague Mike Watson, our regular host and resident labor union expert. Corey A. DeAngelis is a senior fellow at the American Culture Project. He has been labeled the “school choice evangelist” and called “the most effective school choice advocate since Milton Friedman.” He is a regular on Fox News and frequently appears in The Wall Street Journal. DeAngelis is also the executive director at Educational Freedom Institute, a senior fellow at Reason Foundation, an adjunct scholar at Cato Institute, a board member at Liberty Justice Center, and a senior advisor at Accuracy in Media. He holds a Ph.D. in education policy from the University of Arkansas. He is the national bestselling author of The Parent Revolution: Rescuing Your Kids from the Radicals Ruining Our Schools (Center Street, 2024).Links: Educational Bloat and the Role of UnionsCorey DeAngelis - XEducation FirstWhere Is, Repeat Where Is, America's Political Leadership?

Well, 2025 is here. And while it came in rather tragically in the South – and we do extend our condolences to the victims of the terrorist attack in New Orleans– the new year also brings a new presidential inauguration. This incoming administration promises big changes both in how government functions and how it funds, and these changes could have immediate effects on the world of grantmaking, philanthropy, and how nonprofits operate generally. As such, my colleagues Mike Watson and Robert Stilson and I thought it might be interesting to make a few suggestions about how some of those changes could play out and which ones we, as an organization, are keeping our eyes on moving forward.Links: SF pays big bucks to nonprofits, fails to properly monitor themConservative nonprofit's proposal points to states as best way to reduce foreign influence in higher edSuperfund Shakedown: Part 1, On to Plan CFollow Trump 45 Labor Policy, Not the Teamsters UnionFollow us on our socials: Twitter: @capitalresearchInstagram: @capitalresearchcenterFacebook: www.facebook.com/capitalresearchcenterYouTube: @capitalresearchcenter

Donald Trump has made quick work of nominating potential cabinet members, and many of those picks – while controversial – are being met with nods – albeit sometimes lukewarm nods -- by both conservative voters and Republican legislators.One pick, however, stands out as being not only controversial but downright anti-conservative. Lori Chavez-DeRemer, Trump's choice for Secretary of Labor, is a nominal Republican but supports legislation like the pro-unionboss PRO Act, and during her single term in Congress, co-sponsored the Public Service Freedom to Negotiate Act, which National Review recently argued “would force the blue-state model of government unions onto red states.”Here to discuss this confusing nomination, why Trump may have chosen her, and what her chances are for confirmation are my colleague and labor expert Mike Watson and Mark Mix, President of the National Right to Work Committee.Links: Lori Chavez-DeRemer Wants to Ban the Red-State ModelPRO Act Just Gives Unions More PowerNational Right To Work CommitteeFollow Trump 45 Labor Policy, Not the Teamsters UnionFollow us on our socials: Twitter: @capitalresearchInstagram: @capitalresearchcenterFacebook: www.facebook.com/capitalresearchcenterYouTube: @capitalresearchcenter

As the nation awaits the final results in a few dozen House races, the subject of gerrymandering has once again reared its head. This little understood – and often misunderstood – process of drawing congressional maps has been a subject of discussion in state legislatures and activist enclaves since the practice began in the early 1800s. Both right and left routinely accuse each other of manipulating the process even while both sides openly try to make it work in their interest. Now, as the Supreme Court prepares to hear a dispute in Louisiana over the question of racial gerrymandering and a citizen-led gerrymandering proposal fails in Ohio, the question of gerrymandering is once again in the news. Here to shed light on this most confusing American political process – or tactic, depending on your perspective -- are my colleagues Mike Watson and Ken Braun.Links: Supreme Court takes up Louisiana racial gerrymandering disputeThe Myth of Non-Partisan Districts: An Experiment in Redistricting ReformIssue 1 fails big in Ohio despite massive money advantageMichigan's Racist Redistricting “Reform”Chesapeake Bay BridgeFollow us on our socials: Twitter: @capitalresearchInstagram: @capitalresearchcenterFacebook: www.facebook.com/capitalresearchcenterYouTube: @capitalresearchcenter

This week, we are locked in to Jack Sinclair's closet as we delve into the latest news, gossip and scandal. Predictions (accurate ones as it turned out) are made for the WSOPE Final Table which leads the lads into a discussion on how to make the European leg of the WSOP more popular. The current GPI rankings are analysed as Jesse Lonis fends off challenges from Adrian Mateos and Mike Watson to hold onto top spot for a 20th consecutive week. David asks Jack and Dara to rank themselves in the all-time UK and Irish list. The lads discuss playing to study rations and downswings, offering some advice for how to cope with them. David thinks that Jack is daring Dara to play Tritons but is he? The show ends with a deep dive into the recent articles by Kit Chellel, Jonathan Raab and David on the recent Russian botfarm scandal as the lads all express concern for the idea that in-house bots are being deployed by some poker sites.

As the country moves through a contentious election season, where the state of the economy and worries over inflation have been a major talking point, a new economic hazard has appeared on the horizon threatening to hammer the American consumer just as Hurricane Helene threatened – and then did – hammer the Southeast: the International Longshoreman Association, a union of dockworkers who manage the transport, loading, unloading, and all other things associated with shipping containers at the nation's ports, threatened – and then did – go on strike over wages and automation of their jobs. Here to explain what's happening, what it could mean for the American consumer right before a busy holiday shopping season, and if any deal or government action may be forthcoming are my colleague and usual podcast host Mike Watson, who also happens to be our labor expert, and Sean Higgins, a research fellow at the Competitive Enterprise Institute here in Washington, DC specializing in labor and employment issues. Links: Sean Higginshttps://cei.org/blog/white-house-has-serval-option-in-dockworkers-strike-none-of-them-good/The real issue in the port strike: AutomationPRO Act Just Gives Unions More PowerFollow us on our socials: Twitter: @capitalresearchInstagram: @capitalresearchcenterFacebook: www.facebook.com/capitalresearchcenterYouTube: @capitalresearchcenter

Tom is joined by Mike Watson and Chris Redding as they discuss their experiences of moving schools fairly frequently. Mike has had 7 schools in 20 years, Tom 10+ in 18 and Chris is onto his 6th. They discuss how each career move had its pros and cons, when school moves went wrong and what they learnt along the way. They talk about whether there is stigma around teachers who are more nomadic or whether it's time to embrace teachers who chop and change a lot. All packed into this conversation. If you are a teacher considering staying, leaving, quitting or battling on, this is the one to listen to.

There's an ongoing policy war being waged between those who favor a weather dependent wind and solar approach to energy consumption and those who look to nuclear power and efficient electrical grids as the answer to future energy needs. And the dividing line between the two isn't as easy to determine along ideological lines as people might think. While left-leaning charitable organizations and activists do currently fund a push toward the weather-dependent approach, there are some outliers. And while right-leaning legislators have long paid lip-service to nuclear power and efficiency in the energy sector, their behavior hasn't always matched their words. Two new films explore this battle. Juice, a docuseries by energy journalist Robert Bryce and Tyson Culver, looks at the debate over nuclear power and government-induced inefficiencies in the power grid. And Climate: The Movie by British filmmaker Martin Durkin explores climate alarmism and the false claim that the scare tactics are based in science. Our colleague Ken Braun, who has seen both and reviewed one, is here with my colleague Mike Watson and me today to discuss all things energy.Links:Film Review of Juice: The Reliability ErrorJuice: Power, Politics & The Grid Is Out!Climate: The MovieTwitter: @capitalresearchInstagram: @capitalresearchcenterFacebook: www.facebook.com/capitalresearchcenterYouTube: @capitalresearchcenter

It will finally be stated that wellbeing and spiritual practice freed of the compulsive aspect of social media use might form a useful role in a wider movement aimed at fostering healthy communities.   Thank you guys again for taking the time to check this out.

Plus, hear how Kristen Foxen fell just short of becoming only the second woman in WSOP history to make the Main Event final table, including her much-discussed final hand.

On a positive note, Patrik Antonius became the 2024 inductee into the Poker Hall of Fame. The online and cash game legend became just the fifth European to be inducted, and he was on-site at the WSOP to accept the honor. See pictures and a video of the Finnish pro accepting his Poker Hall of Fame trophy. Finally, hear about recent WSOP gold bracelet winners including Jared Bleznick, Gary Bolden, Joseph Sanders, and Calvin Anderson; Jeremy Ausmus tying Phil Hellmuth's WSOP final table record; and other winners from Venetian and Wynn.

I'm Sarah Lee and this is the Influence Watch podcast. Joining me today is my colleague Parker Thayer because sitting in the hot seat is our regular host Mike Watson, and we're going to be grilling him on a 5 part series he wrote on the American elite, about which there has been much discussion over the last several years. They are a semi-mythical class made up of an American socio-political creature who, depending on your perspective, either needs to be heavily taxed to pay their fair share or are currently occupying the seats of power and actively trying to create a permanent majority. So just what defines the “elite” in American culture, which way do they vote, and are they ascending or descending on the political stage? Here's hoping Mike can shine a light on what he says makes the American elites so WEIRD. Links: On the Elites and Counter-Elites: WEIRDT hem vs. U.S.: The Two Americas and How the Nation's Elite Is Out of Touch with Average AmericansFollow us on our socials: Twitter: @capitalresearchInstagram: @capitalresearchcenterFacebook: www.facebook.com/capitalresearchcenterYouTube: @capitalresearchcenter

Part 2 (The Backroom), on The Possibility of Overcoming Myth is available exclusively on Patreon for 1Dime Patrons: https://www.patreon.com/OneDime This week's episode is all about the Frankfurt School of Critical Theory and the classic book "Dialectic of Enlightenment" By Theodor Adorno and Max Horkheimer. For this installment of 1Dime Radio, I am joined by Mike Watson, a professor, writer, and co-founder of Revol Press. We discuss the significance of 'Dialectic of the Enlightenment' and break down its key themes, not just focusing on the famous "Culture Industry" essay but also the other crucial parts of myth, The Odyssey, the concept of Enlightenment, Science, Reason, Technology, and the domination of nature.

A new union-curious faction of conservatism is growing in the run-up to the 2024 election. Leading the charge is a group of otherwise solidly conservative legislators (you'll recognize the names) and policy wonks who have the ear of venerable conservative think tanks (you'll recognize these names, too) who insist that if conservative candidates are going to win, they must reimagine 75 years of union distrust and take seriously the idea that the right has become the party of the working man. And the working man, they reason, might just need unions. CRC's labor policy expert Mike Watson disagrees and he, along with our colleague Ken Braun, joins the podcast today hosted by Sarah Lee to discuss statism from the right.Links: A Mandate for Labor Error: Statism from the RightNo Need to Rethink the Conservative Stance toward Labor UnionsNEWS RELEASES Project 2025 Publishes Comprehensive Policy Guide, ‘Mandate for Leadership: The Conservative Promise'Follow us on our Social Channels:Follow us on our Socials:Twitter: @capitalresearchInstagram: @capitalresearchcenterFacebook: www.facebook.com/capitalresearchcenterYouTube: @capitalresearchcenter

I'm Sarah Lee, and this is the Influence Watch podcast. With news last month that Visa and Mastercard had paused a plan to track gun purchases, and last year's SCOTUS decision that struck down a New York law that put restrictions on concealed firearms used for self-defense, conservatives seem to be winning on the gun issue. In fact, more women and minorities – and even progressives – are buying guns for self-defense. The Wall Street Journal reported in 2021 that during the COVID pandemic, gun sales soared, and more than half of those buyers were women. Joining my colleague Mike Watson and me today is Dianna Muller, the founder of DC Project, a women-focused guns rights nonprofit in DC with chapters all over the country dedicated to fighting for the constitutional right to self-defense. Hi Dianna, welcome to the show.
