Leon Black, billionaire cofounder of Apollo Global Management, was for years a heavyweight political donor, spreading money to both Democrats and Republicans. In 2016 alone, he poured in more than $590,000 across campaigns and committees, with large sums going to both parties' super PACs—$250,000 to the Democratic-aligned Senate Majority PAC and $150,000 to the Republican-aligned Congressional Leadership Fund. His donations continued into later cycles, but the amounts dropped sharply once his connections to Jeffrey Epstein became public, with watchdogs noting a steep decline in his political spending after 2020.When it came to his personal scandals, Black has claimed he was the one being targeted rather than the perpetrator. After Guzel Ganieva filed her 2021 lawsuit alleging sexual assault and coercion, Black fired back that the allegations were “fiction” and part of an extortion scheme. He launched counterclaims of defamation, insisted he had proof in the form of texts and calls, and argued that he was the victim of a calculated conspiracy meant to “destroy” him through litigation and media pressure. Black's stance has consistently been that he was set up—framed as both a financial and reputational hit job orchestrated by opportunists who saw him as a target.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-epstein-chronicles--5003294/support.

With school back in session and fall in the air, it's the perfect time to get back to basics on the Rules of the Game podcast. On today's episode, we'll review how the advocacy rules differ across the various types of tax-exempt organizations, including 501(c)(3)s, 501(c)(4)s, and PACs. Whether you're a seasoned advocate or just starting out, understanding these fundamentals is crucial for crafting bold advocacy plans that maximize your capacity and comply with the appropriate rules. Join us for a quick refresher!   Attorneys for this Episode Melissa Marichal Zayas Natalie Ossenfort Susan Finkle Sourlis   Comparison of tax-exempt organizations There are many different types of tax-exempt organizations – our federal tax code offers 29 different types of tax exemptions to choose from! 501(c)(3)s 501(c)(3) organizations are tax-exempt, and donations to 501(c)(3)s are tax deductible. With this favorable treatment come some restrictions related to lobbying and election season advocacy. ·      Public Charities (including Community / Public Foundations) o   Prohibited from supporting or opposing candidates for public office o   Allowed to lobby so long as they stay within certain lobbying limits and use unrestricted dollars to pay for lobbying activities o   May also conduct nonpartisan election-related activities including voter outreach, voter education, voter registration, etc. ·      Private Foundations o   Prohibited from supporting or opposing candidates for public office o   Effectively barred from lobbying due to a steep excise tax that applies to private foundation lobbying expenditures o   Should also be aware of specific rules related to voter registration activities   501(c)(4) social welfare organizations, 501(c)(5) unions, and 501(c)(6) trade associations These organizations enjoy tax exempt status, but donations to them are not tax-deductible for the donor. However, they can engage in a wider array of advocacy activities than 501(c)(3)s. ·      They are allowed to lobby without tax code lobbying limits. ·      They can engage in some partisan political activity as a secondary purpose (for example, express advocacy). ·      When engaging in partisan activities, they need to be aware of campaign finance regulations and reporting thresholds. ·      At the federal level (and in most states), corporations - including tax-exempt organizations - are prohibited from making monetary or in-kind contributions to candidates or political parties.   527 – political organizations 527 political organizations include political parties; campaign committees for candidates running for federal, state, or local office; and federal or state political action committees (“PACs”). ·      The primary purpose of a 527 must be to engage in activities that influence the selection, nomination, election or appointment of an individual to a public office or an office in a political organization. ·      They do not generally engage in lobbying. Their lobbying expenditures may be subject to tax if the lobbying does not further political purposes. ·      There are many types of PACs, including traditional PACs and Super PACs.   How can these organizations work together?  Despite the different restrictions on lobbying and political activity, there are several ways to safely collaborate with organizations that have a different type of tax exemption.   501(c)(3) private foundations & 501(c)(3) public charities ·      Private foundations and public charities can engage in joint nonpartisan, non-lobbying activities, like public education campaigns. ·      Private foundations can also fund public charities, but they must ensure that they don't earmark any funds for lobbying.   501(c)(3) private foundations & 501(c)(4)s/501(c)(5)s/501(c)(6)s ·      Private foundations can also fund 501(c)(4)s, (c)(5)s, and (c)(6)s, but they must follow what are called the expenditure responsibility rules when granting to any non-(c)(3) organization.   501(c)(3) public charities & 501(c)(4)s/501(c)(5)s/501(c)(6)s ·      Public charities, including public and community foundations, can also collaborate with and fund (c)(4)s, (c)(5)s, and (c)(6)s. ·      Remember, your tax-exempt status follows your organization into any coalition work, so (c)(3)s must track any lobbying they engage in on behalf of or in support of the coalition and continue to stay within their lobbying limits. ·      All joint activities and campaigns must be nonpartisan, and any grants from a c3 to a c4 must prohibit the use of funds for partisan political activity. ·      The IRS will count the full grant from a c3 public charity to a c4 as a (c)(3) grassroots lobbying expenditure, unless the grant agreement explicitly prohibits the use of funds for lobbying or states what portions may be used for direct and for grassroots lobbying.   501(c)(4)s/501(c)(5)s/501(c)(6)s & 527 political organizations ·      501(c)(4)s, and all other corporations, should avoid making monetary or in-kind contributions to a political organization or candidate. These types of contributions are prohibited in federal elections, as well as in most state and local elections. ·      However, 501(c)(4) corporations may establish a traditional federal PAC via a Separate Segregated Fund. o   501(c)(4) corporations may not contribute to this federal PAC or any other political organization, but they can pay for a connected SSF's administrative costs. o   There are other special limitations for this type of PAC, including that it can only raise funds from the connected organization's bona fide members and its executive and administrative personnel and their families.   Resources ·      Alliance for Justice, The Connection: Strategies for Creating and Operating 501(c)(3)s, 501(c)(4)s, and Political Organizations (See p. 11 for chart comparing tax-exempt organizations) ·      Alliance for Justice, Focus on Foundations ·      Alliance for Justice, An Introduction to PACs ·      Alliance for Justice, How to Fund a 501(c)(4)

The U.S. Supreme Court has vastly reshaped American democracy — rolling back voting rights, enabling secret money in politics and expanding presidential power. These decisions have a real impact on all Americans by making it harder for citizens to exercise their freedom to vote, easier for wealthy interests to sway elections and more difficult to hold leaders accountable.In this episode, host Simone Leeper speaks with law professor and co-host of the Strict Scrutiny Podcast Leah Litman, Campaign Legal Center Senior Vice President Bruce V. Spiva and Campaign Legal Center Campaign Finance Senior Counsel David Kolker. Together, they unpack the real-world impact of landmark Supreme Court decisions — from voting rights cases like Shelby County v. Holder and Brnovich v. DNC to campaign finance rulings like Citizens United — and explore what reforms could restore balance, accountability and trust in the Court.Timestamps:(00:05) — What do Americans really think about the Supreme Court?(02:18) — Why does the Supreme Court's power matter for democracy?(07:01) — How did Shelby County v.

In Dinner Table Action v. Schneider, pending in the First Circuit, Maine is appealing a permanent injunction barring the enforcement of a ballot initiative passed in 2024 that would have capped contributions for independent expenditures at $5,000. The initiative, formulated and supported by the anti-super PAC group, Equal Citizens, was designed to challenge the case that “created” super PACs, SpeechNow.org v. FEC, a unanimous en banc D.C. Circuit decision, which held that no limits can be placed on contributions for independent expenditures, and has since been reaffirmed by several federal circuit courts. If the First Circuit were to remove the injunction, it would create a circuit split, and open up the possibility of revisiting SpeechNow.org v. FEC.The Dinner Table Action District Court also ruled that mandatory disclosure of donors starting at $0 unconstitutionally burdens Free Speech by not affording any possibility for anonymous speech. As such, this case sits at an interesting intersection between free speech and election law. Join us for a litigation update where we will discuss the developments to date in this case, its potential impacts, and where it may be headed.

Frequent mass shootings are a distinctly American problem, with news of another tragic shooting grabbing our attention every few weeks. Yet policy change is stalled.In this episode, we focus on an important reason for the congressional paralysis—the gun lobby. John Donohue, one of the country's leading experts on the empirical study of law and public policy, and Eric Baldwin, a research fellow at Stanford Law, join us for a discussion about their new research paper, "Another Shooting, Another Contribution From the Gun Lobby." They reveal how both gun rights and gun safety PACs flood competitive districts with donations in the wake of deadly shootings. The result? A high-stakes stalemate that helps preserve the status quo, despite overwhelming public support for measures like universal background checks. With Donohue's decades of scholarship on crime and policy and Baldwin's insights into political science and lobbying, the episode offers a timely look at how money and ideology shape one of the country's most polarizing debates and offers an examination of a grim reality: mass shootings have become more frequent, but meaningful reform rarely follows. Against the backdrop of rising political violence, the conversation probes the sometimes-surprising role of campaign donations and interest-group maneuvering in shaping what legislators do—or fail to do—after mass shooting tragedy.Links:John Donohue >>> Stanford Law pageEric Baldwin >>> Stanford Law pageTakuma Iwasaki >>> Stanford Law page“Financial Firepower: School Shootings and the Strategic Contributions of Pro-Gun Pacs” >>> Stanford Law pageConnect:Episode Transcripts >>> Stanford Legal Podcast WebsiteStanford Legal Podcast >>> LinkedIn PageRich Ford >>>  Twitter/XPam Karlan >>> Stanford Law School PageDiego Zambrano >>> Stanford Law School PageStanford Law School >>> Twitter/XStanford Lawyer Magazine >>> Twitter/X(00:00) Introductions and The Role of Different Gun Lobby Groups(10:01) Impact of Mass Shootings on Public Discourse (18:01) Political Reactions and Misinformation (25:01) Empirical Findings and Study Insights (30:01) Potential Changes in Public and Political Attitudes Towards Gun Violence Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

This is the episode you've been waiting for, with possibly one of our most highly-requested guests, talking about the dirt, grime, poor legislation, break-ins, and incredibly tough decisions of the industry that no one else has the cajones to say with their chest, let alone on camera. Grab your popcorn for this one.Blackleaf sits down in the FSOTD studio with the Elliot Lewis, the notoriously outspoken CEO of Catalyst Co, a vertically integrated operation with over 33+ dispensaries statewide, plus a consumption lounge, who also produce a slew of in-house brands, to get down to the nitty gritty of the Glass House Farms fiasco, where industry tax money REALLY goes, getting raided multiple times by the DCC, the prominence of dirty or poisonous products at smoke shops/trap shops, receiving death threats, owning 25% of Cali Plug, why Elliot has his CCW and stays strapped, and so much more.If you thought you knew the whole story with Glass House Farms dating back to Elliot's initial lawsuit against them, buckle up, because we really get into the entire debacle from start to finish. Elliot dives into deep detail about his inherent issues with Glass Houses's operations, segwaying into assertions that 90% of Black Market products come from the legal market, and for those like Glass House that've claimed clean noses throughout, and to be caught red-handed back-dooring product…their behavior only damages the playing field on both sides.You might be thinking this is just another episode with a very vocal guest, but Elliot goes so much further than rocking the boat. You'll hear him talk about the real efforts he's been making with his team to lobby for change at the legislative level in California, his “tax strike,” and how he found a loophole that enabled him to potentially save millions on his taxes, much to the dismay of the DCC. On top of all the crazy stories that Elliot lets loose during this pod, there's also multiple conversations about what might happen when big money enters the industry and how many players may sell and exit, how our tax money goes straight into the pockets of politicians and super PACs, where all the homeless and fire relief money has ACTUALLY gone in CA, and how he hopes that someday the people will put the right individuals in position, but if it's up to the current powers-that-be, nothing will ever change in terms of taxation, safe banking, and general profitability and longevity in the space.If you've ever wondered the full story on how Catalyst came into prominence, the partnership between Caleb at Connected and Elliot, how brands grew with them as they expanded locations, the grocery store model that have to implement these days to protect margins, as well as what it really takes to get your brand on their shelves, you have to sit through to the end to truly soak up all of Elliot's game and candid responses.It's almost impossible to detail every vital knowledge-drop, never-before-heard background story, and tokens of wisdom that Elliot lets loose throughout this extended episode. By the end, you'll understand why his slogan, “Weed for the people,” is basically tatted on his chest. If you've ever felt like it's impossible to build an empire in the industry off honesty, grit, and never once “selling out,” you can't miss a minute of this pod with one of California's most resilient retail operators.Subscribe to our channel and the FSOTD.com site to keep up with other key figures and enjoy conversations with trailblazers from the culture you can't find anywhere else.

Sam Bankman-Fried BioSnap a weekly updated Biography.Sam Bankman-Fried, once feted as a crypto wunderkind, made major headlines again this week as the Bureau of Prisons transferred him out of Brooklyn's Metropolitan Detention Center. According to ABC News, the move follows his recently filed appeal on his conviction and 25-year sentence for orchestrating an $8 billion fraud while running the FTX crypto exchange. Despite his request to stay closer to his legal team in New York, Bankman-Fried is now destined for a longer-term federal prison facility, with his former holding merely intended for those awaiting trial. His transfer comes on the heels of a brief stint in solitary confinement, reportedly for conducting an unauthorized videoconference interview with Tucker Carlson. That controversial interview, which spawned viral soundbites and new rounds of online commentary, fueled more public fascination with his persona and prison life.On the pop culture front, Lena Dunham is penning a movie based on Michael Lewis's best-selling FTX exposé Going Infinite, now in early development at Apple Studios and A24, underscoring the enduring spectacle of Bankman-Fried's rise and fall. Meanwhile, the fascination with SBF's post-conviction life has gone theatrical, with a new Edinburgh Fringe show, Luigi the Musical, inspired by the extraordinary reality that Bankman-Fried, rapper Sean “Diddy” Combs, and Italian sensation Luigi Mangione briefly shared a Brooklyn jail cell. In the real-life version, Business Insider and other outlets reported that Bankman-Fried and Diddy were bunkmates, both held in the jail's special high-profile area. In a rare interview, Bankman-Fried admitted the two men had struck up a friendly rapport, further cementing his tabloid magnetism.In the political aftermath of his crimes, Democratic super PACs were pressured by the Justice Department to return over $4.4 million in FTX donations to the bankruptcy estate according to Sludge, a move two years in the making as the legal reckoning for Bankman-Fried's influence and philanthropic ambitions continues to ripples through Washington. As a reminder of the broader fallout, the Federal Reserve recently loosened its special crypto-focused supervision of banks, a safeguard prompted by the high-profile collapse of FTX and the cascade that followed, reported Indian Express.No credible reports of new business ventures or verified social media activity by Bankman-Fried have emerged in the past few days, given his ongoing incarceration and the strict limitations placed on his communications. His legacy, for now, remains one of scandal, headlines, and a pop culture fascination that seems nowhere near fading.Get the best deals https://amzn.to/3ODvOta

There's a direct line between when the Democratic Party got nationalized and when it started getting wiped out in red states. Dems need to embrace heterodoxy in their candidates—running in New York City is not the same as running in Nebraska. And the party has to exorcise itself of people like Andrew Cuomo. Plus, the administration has upped the cruelty quotient by denying retirement benefits to longtime trans members of the Air Force, the FBI gets deployed to advance the Republicans redistricting, and avoiding the scam PACs preying on Democrats. show notes Tim's interview with Andry on Substack or YouTube Lis's book, "Any Given Tuesday" Stanford's Adam Bonica on Mothership Strategies Cook Political Report's 2026 House rankings Tim's playlist

The IRS just dropped a bombshell, effectively kneecapping the Johnson Amendment and letting religious organizations openly politick from the pulpit without losing their tax-exempt status. Critics warn this could turn churches into tax-free PACs, funneling dark money into elections and further blurring the lines between church and state. While rarely enforced, this move exposes a glaring double standard, eroding fundamental principles of separation and allowing unchecked religious influence in politics. It's a classic case of religious overreach, threatening the integrity of both institutions and democracy itself, all while secular organizations play by stricter rules. The implications for public policy and fair elections are concerning, as accountability vanishes.News Source:IRS Now Says Pastors Can Endorse Political CandidatesBy NPRJuly 8, 2025

You almost knew when you heard the name "First Liberty" that the people running said business were aiming for a specific kind of client.It turns out that clientele was "easily duped conservative," as we learned last week that a Newnan, Georgia-based lender was hawking "patriot notes" to help fuel a movement of "America First patriots."You just know it's gross when the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) under the Trump administration is going after 'em. Or, as I surmise, maybe they're quashing competition for Trump's ceaseless business empire targeting the same rubes. It's lead to a potential class action lawsuit by some of the conservatives duped by it. It's also been heavily scrutinized by the staff at the Atlanta Journal-Constitution, who's followed the money to PACS, the state GOP and a handful of far-right politiicans and even the current governor and lieutenant goernor (like he needs it).

Send us a textWhen boxing historians look back at this era, they'll wonder why we didn't appreciate what we had. That's the passionate sentiment driving this episode as we break down a weekend that showcased both the brilliance and frustration of modern boxing.Oleksandr Usyk's masterful performance against Daniel Dubois highlights why he's not just the undisputed heavyweight champion, but one of boxing's pound-for-pound kings. We analyze how Dubois failed to implement the body attack that might have given him a chance, and how Usyk's combination of movement, precision, and killer instinct when his opponent was hurt proves why he's special at any age.Meanwhile, Jesse "Bam" Rodriguez delivered another dazzling performance that leaves us asking: why isn't this technical wizard a household name? With footwork reminiscent of Lomachenko but an aggressive style all his own, Bam represents everything great about boxing's current talent pool yet remains criminally undermarketed.The conversation takes a critical turn when examining Manny Pacquiao's return against Mario Barrios. What does it say about today's champions when a 46-year-old legend can fight to a draw against a current belt holder? We don't hold back in our assessment of what this means for Barrios' future and the welterweight division.From Sebastian Fundora's thrilling stoppage of Tim Tszyu to our preview of Bruce "Shu Shu" Carrington's upcoming interim title fight, this episode captures the full spectrum of emotions that only boxing can deliver.

On the Fourth of July, President Donald Trump signed into law a bill that constitutes one of the largest transfers of wealth in history — taking money away from working people and giving it to the nation's elite. The bill is the culmination of years of giveaways that have allowed corporations and billionaires to tighten their grip on the government. The law triples the budget for Immigration and Customs Enforcement, slashes taxes for the most wealthy, and pays for it all by cutting health care for as many as 20 million people and gutting funding for public education and meals for school children. “ The reconciliation process goes hand-in-hand with all the executive orders that we've been seeing,” says Rep. Summer Lee, D-Pa. “It goes hand-in-hand with all of the different things that DOGE was pretending to uncover. It goes hand-in-hand with so much of Project 2025. So this is all just one kind of super villain packed into this — what they call this one big bill — that's like thousands of pages.” This week on The Intercept Briefing, Lee speaks to host Akela Lacy about what Democrats are doing to meet the moment and how they can break through Republican messaging on the bill. “ Democrats are screaming into a void,” Lee says. “The reality is that we have been talking about Medicaid, and it's very hard to break through in a 24-hour news cycle and this big bubble where we are in a sea of red coverage, conservative media, conservative narratives, disinformation, misinformation. And to break through in that moment takes more than just us.”At the heart of it all is one core problem: the power of money in politics, Lee says. She introduced a bill to ban super PACs, the kind of groups that helped elect Trump and have pushed Democrats to the right. “ You cannot have a democracy and super PACs,” Lee says. “If you are able to influence and shape the politics, shape information — what information gets out, which information doesn't — because you have more money, then we don't have a level playing field.”You can hear the full conversation of The Intercept Briefing on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, or wherever you listen.You can support our work at theintercept.com/join.

Dans la vie quotidienne comme dans les textes juridiques, on entend souvent les termes "conjoint" et "concubin". Pourtant, ces deux notions ne désignent pas exactement la même chose. Quelle est la différence ?Commençons par le mot "conjoint". Sur le plan juridique, un conjoint est une personne unie par un mariage. Autrement dit, deux personnes sont "conjoints" dès lors qu'elles se sont mariées civilement. Cela leur confère un statut juridique précis et de nombreux droits et devoirs, définis par le Code civil. Par exemple :devoir de fidélité, de respect, d'assistance, de communauté de vie ;protection en matière de succession (le conjoint survivant est héritier) ;droits en matière de fiscalité (imposition commune) ;droits sociaux (pensions de réversion, couverture santé).On parle également de conjoint dans le cadre d'un PACS (pacte civil de solidarité). Même si le terme juridique précis est "partenaire", dans le langage courant et dans certains textes, on peut dire que deux personnes pacsées sont aussi des "conjoints", car elles ont formalisé leur union auprès de l'État, avec des droits et devoirs proches de ceux du mariage — mais moins étendus.Passons maintenant au terme "concubin". Un concubin est une personne en couple avec quelqu'un sans mariage ni PACS. Le concubinage est une union de fait : il n'existe pas de formalisation juridique obligatoire. Les concubins vivent ensemble de manière stable et continue, mais sans contrat officiel.Le concubinage, parfois appelé "union libre", n'entraîne pas les mêmes droits que le mariage ou le PACS :pas de protection automatique en cas de décès (le concubin survivant n'est pas héritier) ;pas d'imposition commune ;peu de droits en matière sociale (pas de pension de réversion).Il existe toutefois une reconnaissance minimale : les concubins peuvent obtenir des certificats de concubinage pour prouver leur vie commune auprès de certaines administrations.En résumé, la différence tient donc à la nature de l'union :Conjoint = union formalisée (mariage ou PACS) → statut juridique solide, nombreux droits ;Concubin = union de fait → peu ou pas de droits juridiques.C'est une distinction importante, notamment pour les questions de succession, de fiscalité ou de protection en cas de décès. D'où l'intérêt de bien comprendre les implications de son choix de vie commune ! Hébergé par Acast. Visitez acast.com/privacy pour plus d'informations.

We're reviewing five years of Minneapolis politics since George Floyd's murder with guest D.A. Bullock. We pick apart the records of two very different police chiefs - Medaria Arradondo and Brian O'Hara. We talk about the backlash to the backlash: fear politics is bigger than ever in 2025. Minneapolis has two PACs aligned with Mayor Frey using crime as a wedge to get us to vote for candidates who reject the idea of any renter and worker protections. John tells the story of how this political agitation led to the most Minneapolis thing he's ever witnessed: seeing Walter Mondale's son get shoved by a rich dick at the Ward 7 DFL Convention. We get D.A.'s thoughts on why we need a new mayor; what he thinks of candidates DeWayne Davis and Omar Fateh; we discuss how remarkable it is that Emily Koski was tagged with being too DSA before being run out of the race; and we find out what bothers D.A. about local news coverage. Most importantly, we learn what D.A. is an acronym for.Unfortunately this episode was recorded before Chief Brian O'Hara made comments about the ‘bourgeois liberal mentality' in Minneapolis. Imagine the fun we could've had with that.Watch: https://youtube.com/wedgeliveJoin the conversation: https://bsky.app/profile/wedge.liveSupport the show: https://patreon.com/wedgeliveWedge LIVE theme song by Anthony Kasper x LaFontsee

Are you tired of incessant, unhinged Democratic fundraising texts and emails? Well, so are we. Tommy sits down with three experts in the party's digital fundraising space to talk about how this model became the norm, why it may be hurting Democrats more than it helps, and how that campaign — you know the one — got your cell phone number. Blue State Digital founder Joe Rospars joins to diagnose the problem, our own Dan Pfeiffer weighs in on its impact, and ActBlue CEO Regina Wallace-Jones explains why Democrats rely on the tactic and lays out what we stand to lose if Trump's attacks against her organization succeed. For a closed-captioned version of this episode, click here.

Tired of what's happening in politics? Me too. I'm reposting an episode to remind us, we need to dream bigger — like Nazareth-big. I'm making the case for why my write-in vote this election would go to Mary, the mother of Jesus.Forget the mudslinging, the super PACs, and the endless superlatives — what we need in the Oval Office is the guts, grit, and grace of a woman who survived patriarchal oppression, political refugeeship, and raising the Savior of the world. (And did it all without a social media manager.)We'll explore how Mary's life experience — her leadership, her suffering, her faith — makes her more qualified than most modern candidates. Plus, I'll midrash a little, take a few playful swings at politics-as-usual, and offer a fresh vision for leadership rooted in compassion, courage, and relentless hope.Because honestly? We don't just need a President.We need a Mother.And Mary gets my vote.

Back in the 2012 cycle, Chauncey McLean was a young staffer on the Obama campaign working in the newly developing field of data analytics.Six years later, McLean put those data science skills - and the ones he developed while working in the private sector testing ads for commercial products - to work as head of the Democratic super PAC, Future Forward.Most outside super PACs like these do an extensive amount of polling and survey work and bring in multiple outside advisers to help manage and produce campaign ads and other material. What makes Future Forward unique is the tremendous amount of survey data and ad testing that they do. Its team of data scientists surveyed millions of voters and tested thousands of ads with the goal of finding and airing the ads that moved the needle the most with the voters.During 2024, the group poured more than $600 million dollars into ads that supported first Joe Biden and then Kamala Harris' campaign for president.At the end of the day, the Trump campaign's advertising and media strategy was more successful, particularly his ability to connect with younger men via social media platforms like podcasts and YouTube. As the Democratic party struggles to find its footing, we wanted to talk to Chauncey McLean about what he learned from Harris' loss and how Democratic groups like his are adapting to this fractured media environment going forward.We recorded the conversation on Wednesday, March 19th.

Today's Headlines: The trade war intensified as the EU and Canada announced steep retaliatory tariffs on U.S. goods, ranging from steel and aluminum to whiskey and motorboats. Despite this uncertainty, February's inflation report showed a slight decline to 2.8%, beating expectations. Meanwhile, Tesla's CEO has reportedly told Trump's advisers he plans to invest $100 million into super PACs aligned with the former president, though details remain unclear. In Washington, a government shutdown is set for tomorrow unless Senate Democrats secure enough votes to pass a funding bill. The EPA announced a sweeping rollback of 31 environmental regulations, cutting protections on emissions, coal plants, and wetlands. And in Greenland, the opposition party won a major election, signaling a move toward independence from Denmark—while the one party that backed Trump barely registered in the vote count.
