Podcasts about Capitol Hill

Donald Trump's control of the Republican Party is almost complete. But there are still some members pushing back against the president. Sen. Lisa Murkowski is a persistent dissident. She was one of the few Senators to vote against a recent package of cuts that had already been approved in a spending bill. She has also voted against and expressed reservations about a number of Donald Trump's cabinet members. She voted to convict him on impeachment charges after the January 6 2021 Capitol Hill riots.  On this episode of Free Expression, Gerry Baker speaks with Murkowski about her recent memoir, “Far From Home,” her concerns about HHS Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr.'s stances on vaccines in relation to the recent measles outbreak in Texas, and why she's “not losing sleep” over the direction of the Republican party. Learn more about your ad choices.

What if your church stopped trying to be a lake and became a river instead?In this episode, Peyton Jones and Pete Mitchell sit down with Larry Walkemeyer, longtime pastor of Light & Life Christian Fellowship and the author of The River Church. Larry shares the radical vision God gave him and his wife Deb: instead of growing bigger, their church would grow deeper and wider by sending. That vision turned 39 parking spots into 33 church plants.Larry unpacks the biblical inspiration behind the river metaphor (Ezekiel 47), the ego-surrendering challenges of multiplication, and how prayer, generosity, and Spirit-led leadership shaped a culture of movement. Along the way, he shares powerful stories—from sending a former gang member to plant a thriving church, to watching a seemingly “failed” plant bear unexpected fruit on Capitol Hill.If you're a church planter or pastor dreaming of a multiplying movement, this conversation will stir your spirit and expand your imagination.Resources and Links Mentioned in this Episode:The River ChurchReliant Mission: reliant.org/cppNewBreed TrainingThanks for listening to the church planter podcast.

It's been a banner stretch for President Trump: a major strike on Iran's nuclear sites, a sprawling tax-and-spending bill pushed through Congress, and a growing foreign policy resume.

[Intelligence] Analysts are being told to change their conclusions—or lose their jobs.”The two also dive into the fallout from the US-Israeli strikes on Iran, the fragile push for a Gaza ceasefire, and why Warner sees a largely ignored civil war in Sudan as one of the world's worst ongoing humanitarian crises—and a rare opportunity for the US to lead.Host: Ian BremmerGuest: Senator Mark Warner (D-VA) 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.

From ICE racial profiling to Jeffrey Epstein fight on Capitol Hill to the announced expiration of The Late Show with Stephen Colbert...we have your "Final Thoughts" for the week!

This week we take a closer look at what's at stake in the upcoming August primary, and explore the potential resurgence of the progressive left in Seattle.   We consider whether "public safety" retains the same electoral weight it held in 2021 and 2023, years that saw the broad ousting of Seattle progressives. Drawing parallels to the victory of Socialist Zohran Mamdani over establishment Democrats in the recent New York City primary, we also ask if Seattle's incumbent establishment figures, including Mayor Bruce Harrell, City Council President Sara Nelson, and Republican City Attorney Ann Davison could be in trouble.  There's also discussion of a possible "Trump factor,” with the President pushing voters further left in elections across the globe this year. The podcast also gets into a recent court ruling banning nudity “as constituted” at Denny Blaine Park. This pod taping took place live at the Erickson Theater on Capitol Hill where the 43rd District Democrats had invited us to tape in front of an audience of fellow political nerds.

In this explosive episode, Christian Briggs returns to break down what nearly happened had Trump not won this term—and the centralized monetary system that was already being built behind closed doors. From Ripple's alleged backchannel deals with Kamala Harris to the FedNow platform's role in launching a commercial CBDC without Congress, Briggs exposes the global push toward programmable money and the power structures behind it. He explains how a coalition of lawmakers, spearheaded by Warren Davidson, Tim Scott, and Speaker Mike Johnson, rewrote the course of American finance by passing the Genius Act, Clarity Act, and Anti-CBDC bill. The goal? Keep crypto markets free, stop central bank overreach, and preserve individual control over digital assets before it's too late. What unfolded on Capitol Hill wasn't just legislation—it was a financial firewall against a global tide.

Remember when Mike Lee's 3.3 million-acre land sales were making headlines, what felt like every few seconds? It was all over social media; every conservation organization was talking about it, and even friends of mine who had never been very civically involved gathered the gumption to call their senators. Well, despite the fact that as a collective, we rallied together to defeat all three of Mike Lee's most recent attempts to sell public lands, Trump's Big “Ugly” Bill passed in the Senate, and within the hundreds of pages of legislation, many public lands attacks remained. While I do my best to cover most public lands news every Friday on this podcast, hearing from others in the outdoor advocacy community can shed light on things we may not have considered and help foster conversations needed to continue this fight. That's why I am excited to introduce Land Tawney to episode 189 of the Outdoor Minimalist podcast. Land is co-chair of American Hunters & Anglers, an energetic, media-based organization built on holding policy makers accountable through fast-paced grassroots advocacy. Tawney is a nationally renowned advocate of public land and wildlife. For a decade, he was president and CEO of Backcountry Hunters & Anglers, where under his leadership, BHA grew exponentially, expanding to 48 states and into Canada, garnering 40,000 members, and building an army of public land defenders. Land has testified before Congress on behalf of the Boundary Waters and has served on numerous federal advisory councils in support of hunting, fishing and conservation. He has held roles with the National Wildlife Federation, where he launched their Vanishing Paradise campaign in support of the Gulf Coast, and the Theodore Roosevelt Conservation Partnership. His 25 years of experience as an advocate, leader and sportsman make him just as comfortable in the duck blind and trout stream as he is on Capitol Hill.

What does it really mean to question the status quo? This week, we're sitting down with Dared Price, a pharmacy owner who's taking PBM reform from South Kansas all the way to Capitol Hill. Dared's resumé is extensive: he's started multiple pharmacies, built impressive clinical programs, and created a transparent PBM model that helped over 100 employer groups cut prescription costs. Lately, though, he's turned his attention to PBM reform—and he's already making waves: speaking at the White House, meeting with the Federal Trade Commission, and pushing for legislative change in the highest offices. In this episode, we dive into real-world wins in PBM reform, up-and-coming challenges, and how Dared is working to dismantle a broken system to build a better one.   https://oreadrx.com/  00:00 – Intro & Guest Intro  01:02 – Starting OreadRx  09:56 – Unbundling Benefits  14:14 – Working with Employers  21:22 – Kansas Policy Wins  28:27 – Speaking at the White House  36:58 – PBM Market Insights  42:40 – Future of Pharmacy    Hosted By: Mark Bivins | Chief Growth Officer, RedSail Technologies Guest: Dared Price | President, Price Pharmacies Inc.  Looking for more information about independent pharmacy?

Federal agents descended on a park in the middle of Los Angeles midday Monday, showing up on horseback, in armored tanks, and carrying rifles. While it's still not at all clear if the agents made any arrests, a regional Customs and Border Protection chief told a local FOX News reporter, “Better get used to us now, because this is gonna be normal very soon.” He may not be wrong. President Donald Trump's new spending and tax law explodes the budget for immigration and border enforcement, setting aside around $170 billion extra dollars for Trump's mass deportation agenda. Around $75 billion of that money is earmarked specifically for Immigration and Customs Enforcement. California Democratic Sen. Alex Padilla joins us to talk about ICE's aggressive tactics, how immigrants in California are feeling right now, and what Democrats — and all of us — can do to respond.And in headlines: Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu spent Wednesday waltzing around Capitol Hill meeting with lawmakers, Trump sent out threatening tariffs letters to more countries, and the CEO of the platform formerly known as Twitter coincidentally quit just a day after Elon Musk's AI chatbot went full antisemite.Show Notes: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
