Podcasts about political leadership

As Donald Trump continues to launch unprecedented and innovative attacks on immigrants, civic institutions, and the rule of law, the Democratic response has been—in the eyes of many observers—tepid and inadequate. One answer to the sense of desperation came from Senator Cory Booker, who, on March 31st, launched a marathon speech on the Senate floor, calling on Americans to resist authoritarianism. Booker beat the record previously held by Senator Strom Thurmond's twenty-four-hour-long filibuster of the Civil Rights Act, in 1957, and he spoke in detail about Americans who are in desperate straits because of federal job cuts and budget slashing. “We knew . . . if I could last twenty-four hours and eighteen minutes, that we could potentially command some attention from the public,” Booker tells David Remnick. “That's the key here . . . to deal with the poverty of empathy we have in our nation right now.” Yet Booker bridles as Remnick asks about Democratic strategy to resist the Administration's attacks. Instead, he emphasized the need for “Republicans of good conscience” to step up. “Playing this as a partisan game cheapens the larger cause of the country,” he argues. “This is the time that America needs moral leadership, and not political leadership.”

In this episode, we dive into the latest controversies and power struggles gripping the Trump administration. Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth faces mounting backlash over leaked military intel shared through unsecured Signal chats, while internal turmoil in his office leads to high-profile firings. President Trump backs a controversial $5,000 baby bonus as part of new pro-natalist policies, even as critics warn of deeper economic and ethical concerns. Attorney General Pam Bondi launches a task force to root out anti-Christian bias in the federal government, sparking fierce debate about religious freedom. Meanwhile, the administration faces lawsuits from states over aggressive tariffs, backlash from top universities over funding threats, and legal challenges to education policies targeting diversity programs. On the global stage, Trumps trade war stumbles and Ukraine-Russia ceasefire talks hang in the balance, as Vice President JD Vance hints the U.S. may step back from peace negotiations. We also explore sweeping federal reforms from slashed NASA budgets to AI-driven school mandates, student loan collections resuming, and a push to cut toxic dyes from American food. From campuses to courtrooms, the Trump White House is leaving its markcontroversially and unapologetically.https://linktr.ee/purplepoliticalbreakdown

Has Starmer got balls? Has any politician?  #KeirStarmer #KemiBadenoch #UKPolitics #PoliticalCourage #WestminsterWatch #LeadershipCrisis  Kemi Badenoch straight-up told Keir Starmer he's got no balls — in Parliament. Savage. But is she wrong? Honestly, do any politicians have the guts to actually do what people want anymore? Or is it all just safe speeches, focus groups, and vibes?  In this video, Jon Gaunt is digging into:

John Maytham speaks to Adriaan Basson, Editor-in-Chief of News24, about what DA governance could realistically look like, who might lead such a government, and whether this current surge in support can last until 2029.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

In 1927, the Hollywood stars (and spouses), Mary Pickford and Douglas Fairbanks, Jr stood outside their California home, arms raised in fascist salute. The photo's caption, referencing the couple's trip to Rome the previous year, informs fans that the couple “greet guests at their beach camp in true Italian style.” How did “America's sweetheart” and her husband, a swashbuckler on and off screen, both patriots who had promoted Liberty bonds following the United States' entry into World War I, come to normalize something like Italian Fascism in its first decade? How did the Italian-born divo, or star, of Hollywood's silent cinema, Rudolph Valentino come to function as foil and counterpart to Benito Mussolini's, the duce, in public opinion in American culture in the 1920s? Winner of the 2019 award for best book in film/media from the American Association for Italian Studies, The Divo and the Duce: Promoting Film Stardom and the Political Leadership in 1920s America (University of California Press, 2019) tells the story of the relationship between celebrity culture, charismatic leadership and national sovereignty as it plays out on both sides of the Atlantic from roughly 1917 to the end of 1933. Giorgio Bertellini asks how two racially othered foreigners, Valentino and Mussolini, became leading figures in America and how these two icons of chauvinist Latin masculinity became public opinion leaders in a nation undergoing a major democratic expansion in terms of gender, equality, social mobility, and political representation. In the post-WWI American climate of nativism, isolationism, consumerism, and the democratic expansion of civic rights and women's suffrage, the divo and the duce became surprising paragons of both authoritarian male power as well as mass appeal. Bringing together star studies, screen studies, political science, Italian Studies, and American Studies Bertellini's study teaches us to think in new ways about cinema, political authority, masculinity, and race in Italian cinema and beyond. Meticulously archived, the author pays especial attention to the mediators between screens and the polity, a vast cast of players including journalists, photographers, ambassadors and other functionaries of state, advertisers, sponsors, and publicity agents, all of whom, on concert, work to promote the “ballyhoo” of the day.

 The Three Old Hacks look at the relationship between Nigel Farage and the Conservative Party. We are seeing a reshaping of the right in British politics, says Mihir. Nigel Farage is out to destroy the Conservative Party in his mission to become prime minister.He is making a tactical shift towards the centre, says David Smith, to take over the Conservatives' ground. While Tory Party members may be drifting towards Reform, that "is not easy for Tory MPs to contemplate", says David Smith. He thinks the Tories have repeated the mistake they made when they elected William Hague in 1997, in electing a leader who is too young to lead the party (he was then 26). Kemi Badenoch is 44, but is "not", says David, "a very good parliamentary performer."Mihir is prepared to put money on Farage becoming prime minister one day, but Nigel Dudley thinks the Tory Party will survive its current difficulties and will not be ousted by Reform as the rightful home of right-leaning voters.Turning to consider Rachel Reeves' performance as Chancellor and the measures she outlined in the Spring Budget, "it has been many decades since we have had an economist in the job of Chancellor," says David, "and she definitely is an economist," whatever her political enemies may say to the contrary. Whether or not she will survive as Chancellor has more to do with the number of enemies she has made in such a short time than it does with her abilities as an economist - pensioners who have lost their winter fuel payments, parents of children in private education, farmers, and now disabled people."She expected to be swept along on a tide of goodwill," says David, but that has not been the case.Is the Labour government's lack of popularity down to the mismatch in expectations between what they can afford and what people want from an incoming Labour government? Is it down to their lack of preparedness when they took office.The Three Old Hacks compare and contrast with governments past and consider the Trump effect on the UK's relations with Europe.Former Sports editor of BBC News Mihir Bose, political analyst Nigel Dudley and Economics Editor of the Sunday Times David Smith, aka the Three Old Hacks, bring their decades of experience to bear on the most pressing political developments. Get in contact with the podcast by emailing threeoldhacks@outlook.com, we'd love to hear from you!

Reform UK #Nigel Farage #Rupert Lowe Are Reform UK Finished? | Nigel Farage vs Rupert Lowe In this video, we explore the growing tensions within Reform UK, the fastest-growing political party in the UK. With the party's rise to prominence, it now faces an unprecedented internal crisis between leader Nigel Farage and party member Rupert Lowe.

Today we're talking about Trump's Inauguration Day, and while we're finally heading in the right direction, let's not pretend like everything is perfect. We've got some serious issues to address. Why is Trump still supporting the H-1B visa program that undercuts American jobs? Why didn't he put his hand on the Bible while being sworn in? And why is he backing these creepy AI-driven mRNA vaccines? If we're truly going to fix this country, then we need to face these problems head-on, not ignore them. That's what cowards do.—https://policecoffee.com/

Almost everyone can look at the education landscape in America today and see that something has gone very, very wrong. Spending per student has increased, and there is no evidence that this increased spending has improved student performance outcomes. But what if there are factors eating up the budget and keeping the student performance outcomes stagnant? Factors such as the rise of teachers unions in non-right-to-work states, for example?Joining us today is Corey DeAngelis, a school choice evangelist who is a senior fellow at the American Culture Project, to discuss a recently released report he helped author that looks at just that, the administrative bloat in the public school system and how it correlates to increased teacher union influence. Also joining is CRC colleague Mike Watson, our regular host and resident labor union expert. Corey A. DeAngelis is a senior fellow at the American Culture Project. He has been labeled the “school choice evangelist” and called “the most effective school choice advocate since Milton Friedman.” He is a regular on Fox News and frequently appears in The Wall Street Journal. DeAngelis is also the executive director at Educational Freedom Institute, a senior fellow at Reason Foundation, an adjunct scholar at Cato Institute, a board member at Liberty Justice Center, and a senior advisor at Accuracy in Media. He holds a Ph.D. in education policy from the University of Arkansas. He is the national bestselling author of The Parent Revolution: Rescuing Your Kids from the Radicals Ruining Our Schools (Center Street, 2024).Links: Educational Bloat and the Role of UnionsCorey DeAngelis - XEducation FirstWhere Is, Repeat Where Is, America's Political Leadership?

As the Liberal party gears up for a snap leadership race, we take a look at the top contenders for the role. Alex Marland joined us on the line today to give us some more information on the matter. He is the Jarislowsky Chair in Trust and Political Leadership at Acadia University.

A Psychoanalytic Study of Political Leadership in the United States and Russia: Searching for Truth (Routledge, 2024) provides psychoanalytic insight into the motives of this complex and contradictory topic. The chapters written by the editor of this book focus on the importance of truth-telling and evidence as it relates to presidents of the United States. She studied the way in which some of these leaders have failed to tell the American people the truth about the Maddox incident, Abu Ghraib, the Iran-Contra affair, My Lai, and the real reasons why atomic bombs were detonated in Japan. In the process of uncovering lies, over time this process has eroded trust in our leaders. She also explains epistemic trust which refers to the trust we place in others as sources of knowledge and information. It is a fundamental aspect of how we learn and understand the world, relying on the belief that the knowledge we receive from others is reliable and truthful. It plays a crucial role in various contexts, including education, science, with the media, and in everyday interpersonal interactions.

A Psychoanalytic Study of Political Leadership in the United States and Russia: Searching for Truth (Routledge, 2024) provides psychoanalytic insight into the motives of this complex and contradictory topic. The chapters written by the editor of this book focus on the importance of truth-telling and evidence as it relates to presidents of the United States. She studied the way in which some of these leaders have failed to tell the American people the truth about the Maddox incident, Abu Ghraib, the Iran-Contra affair, My Lai, and the real reasons why atomic bombs were detonated in Japan. In the process of uncovering lies, over time this process has eroded trust in our leaders. She also explains epistemic trust which refers to the trust we place in others as sources of knowledge and information. It is a fundamental aspect of how we learn and understand the world, relying on the belief that the knowledge we receive from others is reliable and truthful. It plays a crucial role in various contexts, including education, science, with the media, and in everyday interpersonal interactions.

In today's episode, I'm addressing the infighting within the Conservative Movement and why it's the last thing we need to focus on now that we've gained control of the Presidency, House, and Senate. While we have achieved significant political power, we cannot possibly afford to be distracted by these interpersonal petty wars. There are real, pressing issues at hand—issues that demand our attention. So, let's put aside the itty bitty baby battles and focus on what truly matters so we can accomplish greatness and usher in our New American Golden Age.--https://policecoffee.com/--Order Culture: The Dangers of Herd Mentality: https://www.paypal.com/ncp/payment/SLYWFXAB6479S

This episode is a re-release of S2 ep. 5 The first woman Speaker of the US House of Representatives Nancy Pelosi called her ascending to the highest leadership role in the house as "breaking the marble ceiling" because the challenges for women to rise in politics as leaders is that much harder.This is especially true for women of color who experience extreme bias as candidates not only due to their gender but race and ethnicity such as Vice President Kamala Harris. As more women of color run for office to make impact for their communities, we discuss the unique challenges they face. Is it possible to be a candidate/elected official who can embrace their voice while representing their community? Or do you have to appeal to stereotypes of women and people of color that many are comfortable with to be successful in making ? Can the remaining barriers to women of color in political leadership be broken, and if so how?I talk about that with special guest Amanda Hunter, Executive Director of the Barbara Lee Foundation. The only kind of foundation solely focused on advancing women's equality and representation in American politics. With extensive communications experience, Amanda brings her strategic insight to the Foundation's work, including over six years on Barbara Lee's senior leadership team. Amanda has covered the Foundation's research on the role of gender in politics on PBS NewsHour, NPR, and CNN, as well as in the New York Times, the Washington Post, Vox, the Los Angeles Times, and Politico. The Barbara Lee Family Foundation has been resolute in its goal of understanding the experience of women in politics and how to break the barriers women face when they are candidates on federal, state and local level. From how voters perceive women in crisis and even their changing hairstyles, to whether voters would really vote for women of color and queer candidates. Their research is in depth, and if you are someone who is committed to increasing representation of women in politics, particularly as candidates, this is one episode you'll like.If you enjoyed the show and you want to join our community of other women of color who are embracing their voice head over to https://embracingyourvoicepod.com/Connect with Atima on:InstagramTwitter

“The future is female.” That was the slogan printed on tee shirts in the early 1970s at the first women's bookstore in New York City. Fifty years ago, it seemed to be true. The Equal Rights Amendment to the Constitution had passed the House of Representatives and the Senate by wide margins and gone to the states for ratification. Fifty years later, there has certainly been progress in gender equality, but the ERA is long dead and Roe has been overturned. We speak with Jane Mansbridge, PhD '71, Harvard's Charles F. Adams Professor of Political Leadership and Democratic Values and the author of the award-winning book, Why We Lost the ERA, about whether the story of the 2024 election will be the way women voters reclaimed their lost rights and the promise of decades past.

This week's episode of the SEANC View Podcast focuses primarily on the State Treasurer's race, which is one of the most important to state employees and retirees. SEANC sponsored a debate between the candidates seeking to replace Dale Folwell — Brad Briner and EMPAC-endorsed Rep. Wesley Harris — in conjunction with the Institute of Political Leadership, which aired on Sunday on Spectrum News. In the debate, Briner, a personal investment manager, repeated a false claim that the pension system costs 16% of the overall state budget, which is more than three times what it actually costs. Executive Director Ardis Watkins points out in this episode that this inaccuracy makes it seem like our retirees are a huge burden to the state, which is untrue. Briner even said the pension system is "crowding out so many other priorities of the state." We also discuss the ongoing Hurricane Helene relief and recovery effort, highlighting the amazing work of state employees and our favorite fall traditions.

What happens when two hurricanes wreak havoc in the southeastern United States, only for the federal aid response to be met with controversy and criticism? That's the question we tackle in this episode, where we dissect the aftermath of Hurricanes Helene and Milton. Joined by Clay Novak, we explore the heartwarming celebrity relief efforts led by Jason Aldean and Luke Combs, alongside the mounting pressure on FEMA amid claims of fund mismanagement against a backdrop of government denial. Our discussion doesn't shy away from the stark reality of misinformation and the stories of everyday heroes stepping up to fill the gaps left by official responses.We venture into the world of political missteps and their impacts on disaster response. A certain political figure finds themselves under the spotlight, facing backlash for prioritizing media over ground presence during a crisis. In stark contrast, notable figures like former President Trump and Governor DeSantis showcase their leadership in the face of Hurricane Milton. As we share personal stories from families braving evacuation challenges in Florida, we also critically assess Vice President Harris's capacity to manage such crises, given past communication blunders and the potential complications of high-profile visits.Finally, we peel back the layers on a shocking scandal involving Sean "Diddy" Combs, drawing unsettling parallels to the infamous Epstein case, and ponder its broader implications on Hollywood and politics. We also highlight a new Tucker Carlson documentary that captures the unwavering resilience of Trump's base amid an assassination attempt. With a heartfelt nod to the communities affected by the hurricanes, we offer our support and introduce listeners to Terry Davis's thrilling journey and the enchanting world of Elsa Kurt's "Welcome to Chance" series.
