Today I'm joined by Teddy Pierce, author of Dethrone Davos: Save America, to discuss the shocking waste, fraud, and abuse that the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) has been uncovering. From reckless spending to blatant money laundering, we're breaking down how our government has been misusing our hard-earned tax dollars—and why this corruption must be stopped. Transparency and accountability aren't just buzzwords; they're essential for restoring actual integrity to our system. Tune in as we expose what's really going on behind the scenes and why this fight matters for all of us.—Buy Teddy's book, Dethrone Davos: https://www.amazon.com/Dethrone-Davos-America-Theodore-Pierce-ebook/dp/B0D5NKGGNC—https://www.thebrandsunday.com/collections/all

This week, editor Will Kaback sat down with Dave O'Brien, the policy director for RepresentUs, to ask him some of the questions our readers always ask us about money in politics — how it works, how it's changed, and what can be done to stop it. The conversation touched on how wealthy individuals like Elon Musk impacted the election, the ballot initiatives on campaign finance reform that RepresentUs supported in 2024, whether there's anything good about super PACs, and some of the innovative ways that local governments are regulating money in politics.

We talk campaign finance trends on this week's Access Louisville podcast. A few weeks ago, LBF Reporter Piper Hansen began digging into donation trends among workers at some of Louisville's biggest employers.

Here's a look at trends from the top three employers, according to info from OpenSecrets.org, a nonprofit campaign finance tracking website.United Parcel Service Inc. employees — $226,529 donated in total; Harris contributions: $139,746; Trump contributions: $86,783Ford Motor Co. — $119,986; Harris contributions: $76,071; Trump contributions: $43,915Kroger Co. — $85,917; Harris contributions: $46,696; Trump contributions: $39,221Hansen talks about these figures on this week's Access Louisville podcast and you can read more about what she found here.

On this week's episode, host Tim Boyum pulls back the curtain on the world of campaign fundraising. Democratic fundraiser and Parker Poe partner Bruce Thompson joins Tim to consider the ins and outs of a multi-billion dollar industry full of intrigue, controversy and misconceptions. Thompson was part of Hillary Clinton's national fundraising committee and has played a prominent role in North Carolina campaigns for decades. He explains the common misconceptions surrounding fundraising and the thought that money drives candidate decision making. He added that a big downside to fundraising isn't the amount of money, but the lack of transparency of who is donating.
