In die hektische Diplomatie zur Ukraine kommt durch angebliche abgehörte Telefonate zwischen Unterhändlern der USA und Russlands zusätzliche Aufregung. Für Diskussionen sorgte ein etwa fünfminütiges Telefonat vom 14. Oktober, das die Nachrichtenagentur Bloomberg als Transkript veröffentlichte. Darin spricht Witkoff mit Juri Uschakow, dem aussenpolitischen Berater von Kremlführer Wladimir Putin. Er gibt ihm offenbar Tipps, dass man Trumps Ohr mit Lob für dessen Frieden in Gaza erreichen könne. Tatsächlich scheint Putin die Ratschläge in einem Telefongespräch mit Trump am 16. Oktober aufgenommen zu haben.Dagegen gilt Marco Rubio im Ukrainedossier, zumindest aus europäischer Sicht, eher als Stimme der Vernunft. Der US-Aussenminister ist Moskau gegenüber kritisch eingestellt und gehört zu jenen Stimmen in der Regierung Trump, die eine Kapitulation der Ukraine wie auch einen Diktatfrieden ablehnen. Dass die Gespräche in Genf zu einer Überarbeitung von Trumps Ukraineplan führten, wird auch Rubio zugschrieben. Besonders auffällig war seine Kommunikation, als er betonte, dass es in Genf grossartige Fortschritte gegeben habe. Trump erreicht aber auch direkte Kritik. Der republikanische Senator Mitch McConnell warnte davor, das Opfer unter Druck zu setzen und den Aggressor zu belohnen.Weshalb hat Trump seinen Ukraineplan gerade jetzt lanciert? Worum geht es ihm dabei, um Geschäfte, um den Friedensnobelpreis oder doch um Frieden? Und welche Rolle spielen Unterhändler Witkoff und Aussenminister Rubio? Darüber unterhält sich Christof Münger, Leiter des Ressorts International, mit USA-Korrespondentin Charlotte Walser in einer neuen Folge des Podcasts «Alles klar, Amerika?»Produktion: Jacqueline WechslerTrumps Ukraineplan:Jetzt zeigt sich, wo die USA wirklich stehen«Als würde er von Russland bezahlt»: Selbst Republikaner attackieren WitkoffGegenvorschlag: Zuerst Krieg beenden, danach über Territorien sprechenAussenpolitische Chaostage: Wie die USA Verwirrung stifteten Mehr USA-Berichterstattung finden Sie auf unserer Webseite und in den Apps.

Complaisant, au mieux naïf, au pire complice ? « Mardi après-midi, relate Le Monde à Paris, l'agence Bloomberg publiait des révélations retentissantes, donnant un aperçu inédit de la relation entre les États-Unis et la Russie ces derniers mois. Il s'agit de deux conversations téléphoniques distinctes, entièrement retranscrites sur la base d'un enregistrement audio. La première est entre l'émissaire américain Steve Witkoff et le conseiller diplomatique de Vladimir Poutine, Iouri Ouchakov, qui fut ambassadeur russe à Washington. La seconde est entre ce dernier et le président du Fonds d'investissement direct russe et principal négociateur au nom du Kremlin, Kirill Dmitriev ». Des conversations qui, résume Le Monde, « illustrent la grande proximité entre le conseiller de la Maison Blanche et ses interlocuteurs à Moscou, à qui il apporte des conseils sur la meilleure manière d'aborder le président américain ». Steve Witkoff qui se fait même « l'avocat zélé de l'agresseur », pointe encore le journal, et qui affiche auprès de ses interlocuteurs russes son « plus grand respect pour le président Poutine ». Manipulé ? Commentaire sans appel du Times à Londres : « Steve Witkoff a été manipulé par Poutine. Il doit partir. (…) Ses erreurs flagrantes sont trop importantes pour être ignorées. Il a une connaissance très limitée des territoires ukrainiens réellement occupés par la Russie, il ne s'est d'ailleurs jamais rendu sur place. Et il reprend à son compte le discours officiel du Kremlin sur l'appartenance de l'Ukraine à la Russie. Sa principale source d'information sur le pays semble provenir de son partenaire de négociation russe Kirill Dmitriev ». Et le Times de s'adresser directement au président américain : « Monsieur Trump, mettez fin à cette diplomatie à la volée et, dans un premier temps, limogez Steve Witkoff. Il est dépassé par les événements ». Aux États-Unis, le camp républicain est en plein doute. C'est ce que pointe le New York Times : « le sénateur Mitch McConnell et plusieurs autres parlementaires accusent l'équipe du président Trump de faire des concessions au Kremlin, et avertissent que cela ne conduira pas à une paix durable ».  Mitch McConnell qui avait récemment affirmé, rapporte encore le New York Times que « le président russe Vladimir Poutine avait "passé toute l'année à essayer de prendre le président Trump pour un imbécile", et que "si les principaux négociateurs de Donald Trump étaient plus soucieux d'apaiser Poutine que d'assurer une paix véritable, alors le président devrait trouver de nouveaux conseillers" ». Vers un nouveau « niet » des russes… C'est dans ce contexte de suspicion quasi-général que l'émissaire du président américain doit se rendre à Moscou la semaine prochaine pour rencontrer Vladimir Poutine. Et autant dire qu'il n'y a sans doute pas grand-chose à attendre de cette visite. Pour Le Soir à Bruxelles, il y a fort à parier que « Moscou rejettera la version actuelle de l'accord (modifié à Genève) et qu'on revienne ainsi à la case zéro. (…) Rien n'indique en effet à ce stade, pointe le quotidien belge, que la Russie acceptera un accord prenant en compte les intérêts de Kiev, et renoncera à son objectif de domination totale de l'Ukraine. Il semble que c'est le scénario qu'entrevoient les Européens. Le président français Emmanuel Macron a certes salué des avancées, soulignant qu'il y avait "enfin une chance de réaliser des progrès vers une bonne paix entre l'Ukraine et la Russie", avant de mettre de l'eau dans son vin, estimant qu'il n'y avait "clairement pas de volonté russe d'avoir un cessez-le-feu" ». Les européens « à la ramasse » ? Les européens qui tentent de faire front… Mais ont-ils les moyens de peser ? « Avec l'aide de l'Europe, Zelensky pourrait avoir de meilleures cartes en main », pointe le Guardian à Londres. Et bien non, soupire Libération à Paris : « il est désespérant de voir une nouvelle fois l'Union européenne totalement à la ramasse face à un Donald Trump, dont elle peine à admettre la brutalité mafieuse et le mépris qu'il lui porte comme le montre le "plan de paix" russe endossé par Washington. (…) Si les Européens avaient osé tenir tête à l'administration américaine (…) en s'engageant militairement en Ukraine, notamment en décrétant une zone d'interdiction aérienne couvrant tout l'ouest du pays (pas pour abattre des avions russes, mais des missiles et des drones), cela aurait changé du tout au tout la situation géopolitique, affirme Libération. L'Europe serait en position de force face à la Russie et aux États-Unis ».

The Federal Energy Regulatory Commission regulates the United States' energy transmission, pipeline networks, and wholesale rates for electricity. For much of its history, FERC was a little-known federal agency. But that's changing.  Today, topics like energy affordability and the urgent build-out of data centers to support AI are putting FERC in the spotlight. The Trump administration is also exerting pressure on the agency. This fall, Energy Secretary Chris Wright directed the commission to fast-track grid connections for certain large loads, such as data centers. But many communities have pushed back against new energy infrastructure.  So how is this independent agency handling pressures to reform its policies? How might politics play out — or not — in its rulings and in key court decisions that impact the agency? Outside of the agency, what are some solutions to building more energy infrastructure faster? This week, Jason Bordoff talks to Neil Chatterjee about FERC's role in energy policy.  Neil is a former commissioner of FERC, where he also twice served as chairman. Neil recently joined the Center for Global Energy Policy as a distinguished visiting fellow. He also currently is an advisor and investor in a number of organizations and is the chief government affairs officer at residential clean energy company Palmetto. Early in his career, Neil worked for Senator Mitch McConnell, R-Ky., as his energy policy advisor. Credits: Hosted by Jason Bordoff and Bill Loveless.

Senator Rand Paul (R-Kentucky) joins Chris Cuomo to break down why the fight over the Epstein files has become a test of public trust — and why he supported full disclosure even while warning people not to expect bombshell revelations. Cuomo presses Paul on how Washington keeps feeding suspicion through secrecy and mixed messages, what real accountability would look like, and why both parties are too comfortable letting the public assume the worst. They also dig into the surprise hemp ban buried in the shutdown bill, Paul's clashes with Mitch McConnell over industry pressure, and how a $25 billion sector got kneecapped without a real debate. From Venezuela to war powers to the politics of fear inside Congress, Paul explains why he believes leaders in both parties are avoiding tough choices as the country drifts deeper into dysfunction.

On this Salcedo Storm Podcast:Nate Morris is the Chairman of Morris Industries, and a 9th generation Kentuckian running for the U.S. Senate seat currently occupied by Mitch McConnell. Nate is an America-First outsider and businessman endorsed by Senators Benrie Moreno, Jim Banks, The Senate Conservatives Fund, Vivek Ramaswamy, and the late Charlie Kirk.

President Trump posted on social media Sunday night that "we have nothing to hide" and now says House Republicans should vote to release all files on convicted sex offender and well-connected financier Jeffrey Epstein. Punchbowl News co-founder John Bresnahan explains why.And, even with the government open again, Head Start programs are unstable, with some of them still closed. Tommy Sheridan, deputy director of the National Head Start Association, shares more.Then, Kentucky's Republican senators are feuding over a provision quietly tucked into the bill that reopened the government. Sen. Mitch McConnell added language banning the sale of hemp products with more than 0.4 milligrams of THC per container. Sen. Rand Paul says the provision could devastate the industry. Kentucky Public Radio's Joe Sonka explains.Learn more about sponsor message choices: podcastchoices.com/adchoicesNPR Privacy Policy

We've got ourselves a good old-fashioned legislative brawl over hemp. The Senate just shut down Rand Paul's amendment that tried to strip out restrictions on intoxicating hemp products from the new government funding deal. This is the kind of hemp that doesn't quite fall under marijuana, the THCA and Delta-9 stuff that's skirted federal legality thanks to a 2018 farm bill maneuver. Paul, joined by Ted Cruz and a solid group of Democrats, argued this would gut the hemp industry in Kentucky and beyond. Mitch McConnell, of all people, led the charge in cracking down — he wants to shut down what he sees as a loophole before he exits stage right in 2026.Politics Politics Politics is a reader-supported publication. To receive new posts and support my work, consider becoming a free or paid subscriber.The hemp industry is pissed. They lobbied hard, warning this will lead to job losses, ruined crops, and wiped-out businesses. But some law enforcement groups, anti-drug organizations, and even alcohol and legal marijuana folks were all in favor. They argue the current situation puts minors at risk and needs to be cleaned up. Rand Paul says his fight wasn't about holding up the government funding, but rather making sure someone in the Senate stood up for hemp farmers. Still, the amendment failed, and the broader bill — restrictions included — is going to move forward. And unless something magical happens in the House, it looks like the loophole days are done.Personally, I'm pretty skeptical of the idea that we're one bad gummy away from chaos in the streets. I've never bought the whole “kids are going to die if we don't regulate this tomorrow” pitch. That's not to say we shouldn't have age restrictions and public usage laws — we definitely should — but we need to be real about this. America needs a consistent weed policy. We're in this weird limbo where it's both legal and illegal, regulated and unregulated, and the result is that nobody really knows what's what.The 50-Year Mortgage PlanDonald Trump floated the idea of a 50-year mortgage on Truth Social, and it immediately got dragged on cable news. Fox Business host Charlie Payne slammed the plan as a bad way to fix housing affordability. The math doesn't lie: you might pay less per month, but in the long run, you'd nearly double the total cost of the house. That didn't stop Bill Pulte, head of the Federal Housing Finance Agency, from calling it a game-changer. But Pulte's now facing heat because this idea just doesn't have a lot of fans.The appeal is pretty simple. You give younger buyers a way into the housing market with a lower monthly payment. Maybe that helps them get in the game earlier, buy a house in their twenties, start building equity. But let's be honest — the problem isn't just the monthly payment. It's the cost of everything. I didn't buy a house in my twenties because I wasn't ready, and I wanted to live a little. That's not a mortgage issue. That's a culture issue.And when I finally did buy, I didn't care how long the mortgage was. I cared about location, timing, and whether I actually wanted to settle down. A 50-year mortgage might help on the margins, but it's not the silver bullet for housing affordability. Maybe it gets a few people in the door earlier. Maybe not. But it's certainly not going to fix the system.Schumer on the Hot SeatChuck Schumer is taking incoming fire from all directions. After eight Senate Democrats voted with Republicans to end the shutdown, a lot of progressives decided enough was enough. Groups like MoveOn and Indivisible are now calling for Schumer to resign. Even some moderates are joining the chorus. They say he's out of touch, ineffective, and unable to confront Trump in any meaningful way.MoveOn claims 80% of their members want Schumer out. Representatives like Rashida Tlaib, Ro Khanna, and Seth Moulton have all voiced their displeasure. But over in the House, Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries is standing by Schumer. He gave a full-throated endorsement, saying Schumer is the right man for the job and that his fight during the shutdown was valiant. So at least publicly, Schumer isn't going anywhere.But this does shine a spotlight on the growing rift within the Democratic Party. The progressives want more aggression, more resistance, and less compromise. Schumer's old-school Senate style — the backroom deals, the procedural wrangling — doesn't cut it for them anymore. Whether or not this turns into an actual leadership challenge is still up in the air. But the frustration is loud and growing, and Chuck is smack in the middle of it.Chapters00:00:00 - Intro00:02:39 - Latest on Shutdown00:04:21 - Interview with Kirk Bado00:29:16 - Update00:29:52 - Hemp Products00:33:57 - 50-Year Mortgages00:37:58 - Calls for Schumer to Resign00:41:41 - Interview with Kirk Bado (con't)01:08:10 - Wrap-up This is a public episode.

This week, Joe Gerrity, CEO of Crescent Canna joins the Cannabis Equipment News podcast to discuss the existential threat facing the hemp industry, why he believes Senator Mitch McConnell is on a "warpath" to undo the Farm Bill's accidental cannabis legalization, how it's hard to keep your foot on the gas (and people/media/the world interested in your plight) when you face constant attacks, and the sheer amount of money that goes into lobbying—as well as why it's time for the $40 billion to $50 billion industry to spend more than 0.01% on those efforts.Please make sure to like, subscribe and share the podcast.

1. Kennedy’s Humor and Persona (GRAB SEN KENNEDY'S NEW BOOK HERE!) Kennedy is a "Southern trial lawyer with a sharp wit", often underestimated due to his accent and folksy demeanor. He’s known for devastating cross-examinations of judicial nominees, both Democrat and Republican. His humor is often biting and irreverent, with jokes about colleagues like Chuck Schumer, Mitch McConnell, and even Ted Cruz. 2. Behind-the-Scenes Senate Culture Kennedy compares the Senate to junior high school, full of cliques, egos, and petty drama. He shares stories of interactions with nominees who failed basic constitutional knowledge. The book aims to demystify the Senate and show how disconnected Washington can be from everyday Americans. 3. Critique of Washington Kennedy argues that Washington lacks common sense, and that change is only possible by removing entrenched interests (“pigs out of the creek”). He emphasizes the importance of storytelling in politics, using humor to make serious points. 4. Praise and Promotion Cruz and Ferguson praise Kennedy’s storytelling and comedic timing. The book is a very giftable item, especially for those with conservative leanings or frustrations with Washington.

Tucker Carlson is at the center of intense national controversy after his recent high-profile interview with white nationalist Nick Fuentes. The interview, which aired on Carlson's independently run streaming show, has ignited a firestorm within conservative circles as well as broader political and media communities. Florida Republican Congressman Randy Fine became the most outspoken critic at the Republican Jewish Coalition's annual leadership conference, publicly labeling Carlson as “the most dangerous antisemite in America” and accusing him of promoting Holocaust denial, supporting those who “celebrate the Nazis,” and defending Hamas. During his remarks, Fine said he was canceling a scheduled Heritage Foundation event in protest and called on other Republicans to do the same, vowing to block Heritage staffers from his office and urging colleagues to follow suit.The Heritage Foundation's response has only deepened divisions. Its president, Kevin Roberts, released a video refusing to distance the influential think tank from Carlson. Roberts dismissed critics as a “venomous coalition” and insisted their efforts to cancel Carlson would fail, even though he and the foundation officially condemned Fuentes's antisemitic ideology. This stance drew significant backlash, including criticism from Heritage staff, Republican senators, and Jewish leaders in both parties. Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer called the Heritage statement “deeply disturbing,” and Mitch McConnell pointedly stated that “conservatives should feel no obligation to carry water for antisemites and apologists for America-hating autocrats.” Heritage has since reassigned its chief of staff in reaction to the controversy, signaling ongoing internal turmoil.This latest uproar follows a series of recent interviews where Carlson has platformed figures who espouse Holocaust denial and anti-Jewish conspiracy theories. Just weeks prior, Carlson's discussion with amateur historian Darryl Cooper provoked similar condemnation, after Cooper denied Nazi intent in the Holocaust and blamed Churchill for World War II atrocities, all with no pushback from Carlson. These editorial choices not only drew public rebuke from the White House and bipartisan groups of legislators but also stoked debates over rising antisemitism within the Republican Party and the broader conservative movement.In parallel to these controversies, Carlson's media ventures continue to attract attention. His new startup, Last Country, co-founded with Neil Patel, recently received a $15 million seed investment from Omeed Malik's 1789 Capital, according to the Wall Street Journal. Carlson is leveraging this funding to grow his audience through video content, mostly hosted on X (formerly Twitter), and has already produced episodes featuring major political figures including Donald Trump. Since departing Fox News, Carlson has focused on building a subscription-based media company and has regained significant popularity in the podcast space. By this summer, “The Tucker Carlson Show” was ranked the number one political podcast on Spotify.These developments have made Carlson a polarizing figure, amplifying debates over free speech, the mainstreaming of extremist rhetoric, and the responsibilities of leading media personalities. While Carlson retains a substantial following and influential allies in conservative media and think tanks, his critics warn of the dangers posed by granting a platform to extremist voices and normalizing language previously confined to the political fringes.Thanks for tuning in and don't forget to subscribe to the Tucker Carlson News Tracker podcast.

With the constitutionality of Trump imposing tariffs without the backing of Congress headed to the Supreme Court, legislators finally seem to be taking the matter back into their own hands. Five Senate Republicans joined Democrats in voting against the president's use of emergency powers to impose 50% tariffs on Brazil.

In this lively episode of "The Yard Sign," Florida's original political podcast, hosts Johnny Torres and Anibal Cabrera dive into a mix of humor, personal anecdotes, and political commentary. The duo kicks off with lighthearted banter about Anibal's recovery from illness, joking about his "little blue pills" and pharmacy mishaps, before sharing stories of their co-hosts' absences and a funny encounter with another host's girlfriend. They discuss a scandal in the Hillsborough County Sheriff's Office involving plagiarism and cheating on FBI courses, sparked by a scorned wife's email, praising Sheriff Chad Chronister's handling while noting the systemic issues. The conversation shifts to generational differences, with Gen Alpha emerging as surprisingly conservative, and the decline of nightlife as younger crowds prefer daytime raves. They lament aging politicians like Mitch McConnell and Nancy Pelosi clinging to power, advocating for term limits and retirement. The hosts also touch on pop culture, from binge-watching "The Newsroom" to JK Rowling's triumphs, and express excitement over Trump's second term, joking dreaming up White House additions like a putting green. The episode wraps with a mockery of the "No Kings" protests, celebrating America's rejection of monarchy, and a fast-food debate crowning Burger King's superiority. Anibal shares his wife's a cappella competition in Ohio, and the hosts tease upcoming political events and guest appearances, including potential county commission candidates. Packed with laughs, local insights, and unfiltered takes, this episode is a rollercoaster of Tampa flair and political spice.   **Topic Chapters with Timestamps:**   - 00:00:22 - Intro and Anibal's Health Banter   - 00:02:06 - Co-Host Absences and Girlfriend Stories   - 00:05:25 - Hillsborough Sheriff Plagiarism Scandal   - 00:09:15 - TikTok, Gen Alpha, and Nightlife Decline   - 00:16:12 - Aging Politicians and Term Limits   - 00:21:40 - Pop Culture: Newsroom, West Wing, JK Rowling   - 00:46:01 - Trump's Second Term and White House Ideas   - 01:04:17 - "No Kings" Protests and Fast Food Debate   - 01:17:20 - Parking Woes and Tampa Food Scene   - 01:19:15 - A Cappella, Political Events, and Closing     **YouTube Tags:**   The Yard Sign, Florida politics, Tampa podcast, Hillsborough Sheriff scandal, Chad Chronister, Gen Alpha conservative, term limits, Trump second term, No Kings protests, Burger King vs McDonalds, Tampa nightlife, JK Rowling, a cappella competition, political podcast, Johnny Torres, Anibal Cabrera

Smith potentially running for President in 2028, Mitch McConnell taking a spill yet in Washington yet again, and much more!

Public disgust with Washington is growing as the government shutdown continues, with both Democrats and Republicans seemingly unwilling to compromise. Is the American political system broken beyond repair? Former GOP fundraiser and chief of staff for Mitch McConnell, Steven Law, joins Ian Bremmer on the GZERO World Podcast to discuss the state of America's political parties ahead of a pivotal midterm election year.While Congress seems more polarized and divided than ever, Law believes that the American public writ large wants leaders who are constructive and unifying, even as they're prosecuting a strong agenda. But exactly what that agenda is, is what's unclear. According to Law, the GOP has become the party of Trump while the Democrats are experiencing an identity crisis and period of “massive redefinition.” What should parties focus on ahead of next year's midterms? Can either side break through the deep polarization in DC to deliver a message that resonates with voters?Host: Ian BremmerGuest: Steven Law Subscribe to the GZERO World with Ian Bremmer Podcast on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, or your preferred podcast platform, to receive new episodes as soon as they're published.

Join the Anchoring Truths Podcast for an in-depth dive into the career and jurisprudential mind of Justice Amy Coney Barrett. The occasion for doing so is the publication in September of Justice Barrett's new book, Listening to the Law. Anchoring Truths featured an exclusive review of the book by Michael A. Fragoso. Fragoso joins the podcast to discuss his review. Fragoso was not only a student of the justice while in law school at Notre Dame, but also one of the Senate staffers most responsible for her confirmation to the Supreme Court. He brings a fascinating and unique perspective to the path the justice has taken to the Court and the approach to judging she details in the book.Fragoso is currently Partner at Torridon LLC, the boutique law firm founded by former AG Bill Barr. Before joining Torridon, he was chief counsel to Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell. Fragoso was the Leader's primary legal advisor and managed the “last mile” of any legislation touching on the Senate Judiciary Committee. He also repeatedly represented Leader McConnell as counsel of record at the Supreme Court. Leader McConnell said of Fragoso that he's “equally at home in the high-minded philosophical discourse of the legal community and the urgent pragmatism of Congressional dealmaking,” and that he “maintains a firm grasp on the realm of the possible” but “knows which screws to twist.” He observed that Mike “is so exceptionally competent that he often produces from his desk the work that would normally require, literally, teams of outside counsel.”Fragoso previously was chief counsel for nominations and constitutional law for the Senate Judiciary Committee under Ranking Member Chuck Grassley and Chairman Lindsey Graham. During this time, he advised the Senators on two presidential impeachments, ran multiple policy hearings, and managed the confirmation process for over 80 federal judges, including Justice Amy Coney Barrett. Chairman Graham described Fragoso as “a force of nature.” He frequently comments on public affairs, and his writing has appeared in the Wall Street Journal, National Review, and the Harvard Journal of Law & Public Policy.Fragoso has also served as a law clerk to Judge Diane Sykes of the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Seventh Circuit. He is a graduate of Notre Dame Law School and Princeton University.

John welcomes celebrated First Amendment lawyer Floyd Abrams to discuss Donald Trump's efforts to stifle and/or prosecute his political opponents. Abrams—who has argued more free-speech cases before the Supreme Court than any attorney and whose clients have ranged from the New York Times in the Pentagon Papers case to Mitch McConnell in Citizens United—explains why Jimmy Kimmel's reinstatement isn't likely to end Trump's legal and regulatory assault on broadcasters and the news media; the indictment of Jim Comey marks a new and dangerous phase in the administration's weaponization of the legal system; and we are now living in a world where no hypothetical abuse of presidential power is too outlandish to take seriously.

President Donald Trump really, really, really hates wind and solar power. He made sure to make that point very clear during a Cabinet meeting last week, where he ranted about windmills for…way too long. At the end of August, the Trump team ordered construction be stopped on a 4-billion-dollar wind farm project off the coast of Rhode Island that was nearly finished. The administration alluded vaguely to national security threats, suggesting, among other things, that wind farms could be used to launch drone attacks on the U.S. None of this is good. Not just for, you know, preventing the very worst outcomes of climate change that could put billions of lives at risk and alter the very nature of human existence. But also for Americans dealing with spiraling energy bills. So we spoke to Bill McKibben, environmentalist and author of a new book, Here Comes The Sun: A Last Chance for the Climate and a Fresh Chance for Civilization, about climate change, to help us feel more optimistic about the future of the Earth.And in headlines, HHS Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. vs. the Senate Finance Committee, and former Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell has some thoughts on how we got here.Show Notes:Check out Bill's new book – wwnorton.com/books/Here-Comes-the-Sun/Call Congress – 202-224-3121Subscribe 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
