This week on Breaking Battlegrounds, we take on three of the biggest issues shaping America's future: national security, education, and taxes. First, Dr. Meg Reiss, founder and CEO of SolidIntel, joins the show to explain how American red tape is strengthening China's dominance over rare earth minerals. Then, National Emmy winning investigative reporter Chris Papst of Fox45 Baltimore joins to discuss his book Failure Factory, which uncovers America's public education crisis, including how billions in taxpayer dollars are spent while student outcomes stagnate and what parents nationwide should be watching for in their own school districts. Finally, Matthew Putnam of the National Taxpayers Union explains how Truth in Taxation laws offer a proven solution to runaway property taxes, highlighting successful reforms in states like Utah, Kansas, and Nebraska and why lawmakers across the country are paying attention.  

It's an amazing business story and one that has Hollywood and everyone who streams movies and shows watching with great interest. Could Netflix be about to purchase Warner Brothers and HBO? If so, what does it mean for how you see most of your favorite shows and movies? Christian Toto from HollywoodInToto.com breaks it down. President Trump has appointed Scott Bessent to be his "affordability" point man. The National Taxpayers Union has tracked the fast states to grow and lose population and Brandon Arnold who's the Executive VP shares the data. Erin Maguire is back for Monday's with Maguire to discuss how the GOP can or cannot weather this affordability discontent among the electorate and what it will mean for midterms. While two states have helped the GOP net 7 seats in total so far. Plus, too many young people think "words are violence" and Stigall is convinced the latest viral story of a fired Cinnabon employee in Wisconsin is a grand hoax. -For more info visit the official website: https://chrisstigall.comInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/chrisstigallshow/Twitter: https://twitter.com/ChrisStigallFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/chris.stigall/Listen on Spotify: https://tinyurl.com/StigallPodListen on Apple Podcasts: https://bit.ly/StigallShowSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Iowa Business Report Friday EditionNov. 07, 2025       Thomas Aiello of the National Taxpayers Union on their annual "no brainers list" of proposed Congressional legislation. 

This episode originally aired in March of 2025. Brandon Arnold from the National Taxpayers Union assesses the priorities President Trump and Congress (especially Republicans) should have in budget negotiations.

Taxpayer advocates are keeping close watch on this week's decision to name Social Security Administration Commissioner Frank Bisignano as CEO of the IRS, and have many questions about what it could mean for the agency. Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent said Monday he was creating a new IRS CEO position, and Republicans in Congress seem to be generally supportive, though some said the White House should still name an IRS commissioner nominee. The Treasury Department assured staff in GOP Iowa Sen. Chuck Grassley's office that a commissioner nominee would still be sent to the Senate. At the same time, the Senate Finance Committee voted Wednesday to advance Derek Theurer's nomination to be undersecretary for legislative affairs and Donald Korb's nomination to be IRS chief counsel. That's good news for Pete Sepp —president of the National Taxpayers Union, a taxpayer advocacy group—who is concerned that many of the top IRS positions remained unfilled. Sepp, who sat down with Bloomberg Tax Senior Reporter Chris Cioffi for this episode of Talking Tax, said Congress is right to seek answers about how the CEO job interacts with the commissioner. He said he hoped the CEO position, in the future, would be selected by an IRS oversight board that has been dormant for more than a decade. Do you have feedback on this episode of Talking Tax?
