Podcasts about Reform

In this episode of John Solomon Reports, we delve into a riveting discussion with Congresswoman Claudia Tenney, who joins us live from the Republican Leadership Conference in Florida. Tenney shares her thoughts on the alarming revelations surrounding the FBI's classification of President Trump as a counterintelligence threat throughout his presidency, sparking a conversation about the lengths to which the Democrats will go to undermine him.As the discussion unfolds, Tenney highlights the ongoing issues surrounding Hunter Biden and the apparent lack of accountability for the Biden family, shedding light on her experiences on the Ways and Means Committee and the whistleblower testimonies that reveal a slow-walking of justice. She emphasizes the troubling dynamic between the intelligence agencies and the political landscape, calling for a restoration of trust and integrity within these institutions.We also explore the complexities of the FISA program and the urgent need for reforms to protect civil liberties while ensuring national security. Tenney discusses her efforts to balance these critical issues, advocating for accountability and transparency in government operations. With the upcoming midterms on the horizon, she shares insights into the Republican Party's proactive stance on election integrity and the importance of voter ID laws.Next, John Solomon is joined by Adam Gillette, president of Accuracy in Media, who sheds light on the group's inflammatory rhetoric, including their shocking tweet of "Death to America" and the implications of their actions amidst the ongoing conflict with Iran.Adam discusses the troubling environment at Columbia University, where anti-Semitic and anti-American sentiments seem to be rewarded rather than condemned. He highlights the cognitive dissonance among student activists who align themselves with ideologies that threaten their own safety. The conversation shifts to the broader implications of federal funding cuts to universities and the impact on their operations and endowments, particularly in light of declining support from Jewish alumni.Furthermore, Adam emphasizes the need for accountability and reform within higher education institutions, advocating for a crackdown on radical ideologies that permeate campus culture. He shares insights on the effectiveness of hidden camera investigations in exposing wrongdoing and the importance of public accountability for university administrators.Finally, we tackle the critical issue of high blood pressure, often referred to as the silent killer. John Solomon shares his personal journey with hypertension and emphasizes the importance of monitoring blood pressure to prevent serious health issues. He introduces 120Life, a remarkable super fruit juice that has helped him lower his blood pressure naturally alongside his medication.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

New left-wing figures like Zohran Mamdani in New York and Zarah Sultana in the UK are generating tremendous enthusiasm. These self-described socialists denounce capitalism and billionaires and propose bold reforms to alleviate the immediate problems of workers.These reforms can appear more realistic or practical than the messy business of revolution. Yet all over the world, capitalism is in an existential crisis. Far from granting reforms, the ruling class is ruthlessly clawing back reforms that were won in the past.So can we really reform our way to socialism? Is revolution necessary? And if so, is there any use fighting for reforms within capitalism? Finally, what should be the attitude of Communists towards these reformist figures?In this presentation from the 2026 Montreal Marxist Winter School, Josh Holroyd (member of the International Secretariat of the Revolutionary Communist International, editor of In Defence of Marxism magazine) explains the shortcomings of reform-ism, how Marxists approach reforms, and how we can fight for a successful socialist revolution.This presentation was recorded on February 15, 2026.Note: translation has been edited out for clarity.Join the Revolutionary Communist Party here

William Clouston, leader of the SDP, shocks by calling himself more conservative than most Tories while demanding an end to mass migration and evidence-based borders.

Clouston pulls no punches on Britain's deepest crises: the devastating housing shortage made impossible by unchecked mass migration, the failure of liberal "magic soil" assimilation fantasies, the importation of culturally dissimilar attitudes from "backward societies" (backed by evidence like Pew data on antisemitism and crime stats), and why progressive denial of reality is anti-empirical bigotry. He dismantles Owen Jones-style fact avoidance, explains why proximity and national interest must trump global altruism, critiques trans ideology's assault on truth and categories, and outlines the painful sacrifices needed to rebuild Britain—massive grid and nuclear investment, welfare cuts to fund house-building, ending de-industrialisation, and reclaiming state capacity in energy, rail, and water. Clouston discusses his SDP-Reform electoral pact, views on Tommy Robinson, the collapse of Christianity in Britain amid religious immigration waves, and why economic and social liberalism are "two cheeks of the same backside" destroying the nation. He praises Trump and Vance for proving borders can be enforced, admires philosopher Epicurus as his favourite heretic for rejecting gods and embracing simple, desire-limited living, and urges viewers to reject fantasy politics for evidence-based truth. If you're tired of woke denial and want real solutions rooted in faith, flag, family, borders, and national prosperity, this is must-watch. #MassMigration #BritainFirst #AntiWoke Join the 30k heretics on my mailing list: https://andrewgoldheretics.com  Check out my new documentary channel: https://youtube.com/@andrewgoldinvestigates  Andrew on X: https://twitter.com/andrewgold_ok   Insta: https://www.instagram.com/andrewgold_ok Heretics YouTube channel: https://www.youtube.com/@andrewgoldheretics Chapters: 0:00 SDP's Red-Blue Mix Explained 3:02 End Mass Migration or No Homes 5:04 Why Migration Doesn't Fix Building 7:03 True Conservatives vs Fake Ones 10:38 Owen Jones Called Out on Facts 15:04 Magic Soil Myth Busted 17:02 Trump & Vance Changing Everything 21:52 Trans Policy & Truth on Sex 24:04 Legal Sex Change Reversal Push 29:05 Reform, Tories & Future Coalitions 31:57 Economic & Social Liberalism Fail 37:00 SDP-Reform Pact Revealed 40:59 Is Britain Still Christian? 43:22 Religious Collapse & Migration Risks 47:09 A Heretic William Admires Learn more about your ad choices.

3/4/26: College Football Playoff Expansion, NIL And Revenue Sharing Reform, Media Rights Debates & So Much More!

Beci Newton is a Station Manager in the UK Fire and Rescue Service and an experienced fire behaviour instructor as well as other disciplines joins me for a conversation about our past, our present and our future, and how we are evolving the identity of our profession.This episode is about more than neutral planes &compartment behaviour. It is about identity & about who we are as a profession. We step back and ask some difficult but necessary questions about the fire and rescue service and the direction it is moving in. Who are we, really, as a profession? Where have we come from over the last two decades? How have we changed and why? How much of that change has genuinely made us better, stronger and more effective on the fireground, and how much of it has been performative? How much has added real operational value and how much, if we are honest, may have stripped something away?We explore the tension at the heart of modern reform. How do we innovate without forgetting the past? How do we change without losing ourselves? How do we embrace inclusivity, cognitive diversity and modern leadership while still protecting the qualities that make a firefighter dependable when it matters most: reliability, discipline, calm confidence under pressure, technical competence, resilience and steadfastness when conditions deteriorate. Because progress without memory can be reckless, and tradition without reflection leads nowhere. Somewhere between those two maybe sits the confident, disciplined and inclusive fire and rescue service we are all trying to build.Access all episodes, documents, GIVEAWAYS & debriefs HEREJoin me at Blue Light Show in London in JulyPodcast Apparel, Hoodies, Flags, Mugs HERE our partners supporting this episode.GORE-TEX Professional ClothingFIRST TACTICAL- tactical gear for elite operatorsMSA The Safety CompanyJAFCOIDEXFIRE & EVACUATION SERVICE LTD Send a textSupport the show***The views expressed in this episode are those of the individual speakers.

Loch an Loch und hält doch: Frost und Tau haben den Leipziger Straßen ordentlich zugesetzt – überall Schlaglöcher und Risse im Asphalt. Wie das Tiefbauamt die Schäden jetzt angehen will und warum das Ganze wohl etwas dauert, erfahrt Ihr in der neuen Folge von HELDENSTADT, dem Leipziger Wohnzimmerpodcast der LVZ. Wir, Eure Hosts Daniel Heinze und Guido Corleone, quatschen wieder über alles, was Leipzig gerade bewegt: In Lausen-Grünau hat unsachgemäß entsorgter Hygiene-Kram einen echten Abwasserschaden from hell verursacht (und niemand hat's für Instagram gefilmt!). Außerdem wächst der Widerstand gegen die Reform der Buslinie 89 – und wir erklären, warum auch wir weiter gerne gemütlich im Elektrobus durch die Fußgängerzone der Innenstadt zuckeln würden. Aufnahmestopp im Mieterverein: Weil dort die Arbeit überquillt, können aktuell keine neuen Mitglieder aufgenommen werden. Eigenbedarfskündigungen, steigende Nebenkosten und Mieterhöhungen haben in den letzten Monaten für einen regelrechten Run auf die Angebote des Vereins gesorgt. Be-Beat-and-Rhythm: In den Veranstaltungstipps raten wir Euch zu den Konzerten von Marc Broussard im Werk 2, Mel D in Naumanns Tanzlokal und Mallorca in Ilses Erika - und feiern die frisch sanierte und wiedereröffnete naTo am Südplatz.

Ralph welcomes sociologist and historian Behrooz Ghamari-Tabrizi to discuss the United States' war of aggression on Iran.Behrooz Ghamari-Tabrizi is an Iranian-born American historian and sociologist. He is a Research Fellow at the Center for Place, Culture, and Politics at the CUNY Graduate Center. He was the Chair of the Department of Near Eastern Studies and Director of the Sharmin and Bijan Mossavar-Rahmani Center for Iran and Persian Gulf Studies at Princeton University. He is the author of four books on different aspects and historical context of the Iranian revolution of 1979 and its aftermath.The only countries that I see that are in constant violation of international law is the United States and Israel. And frankly, I am speechless, although I'm speaking, but I am speechless—in what universe can this war be justified as self-defense? You listened to Secretary Rubio's speech in Munich where he laments 400 years of colonial rule being lost to this international law and laws of fighting wars because they want to go back to the way things were in the 18th and 19th century. This is a naked expansionist, extortionist administration here, and that's the only reason they have launched this war, and there is absolutely no justification for it.Behrooz Ghamari-TabriziFor years and years, the Israelis have been assassinating Iranian scientists. They were sabotaging Iranian industries. And actually, the Iranian government showed tremendous restraint in responding to these Israeli provocations because they didn't want to create the situation in which we find ourselves today. But then at the end of the day, calling Iran the aggressor here I think is a total ignorance of history and the context in which this war has started.Behrooz Ghamari-TabriziAll these things are not to suggest that the Iranian government in any form or shape is a democratic and just state. But the question here is about the sovereignty of the Iranian state. And the only inheritance of the revolution that has been kept throughout these forty-odd years was the question of sovereignty. Because that was one of the demands of the revolution. The question of social justice was thrown out of the window after the revolution. The question of civil liberties was thrown out of the window after the revolution. The only thing that is left is Iranian sovereignty. And according to every single intelligence study, what Iranians do outside their borders is a defensive posture. Iran does not have an expansionist agenda.Behrooz Ghamari-TabriziNews 3/6/26* Last week, Bill and Hillary Clinton testified before the House Oversight Committee on their respective relationships with financier and sexual predator, Jeffrey Epstein. Hillary Clinton, in a deposition described as contentious, maintained that she had virtually zero connections with Epstein, stating at one point “I am so tired of answering that question,” per PBS. Former President Bill Clinton meanwhile, tried to downplay his relationship with Epstein, describing it as “cordial,” and claiming that he had come to an arrangement with Epstein where the financier provided his private jet for humanitarian trips in exchange for Clinton discussing politics and economics with him. The committee pressed Clinton on this point, noting that Epstein visited the White House numerous times during Clinton's presidency and that there are photos of the two men shaking hands. Clinton told lawmakers he “did not recall those interactions.” These answers leave much to be desired.* Meanwhile, another Epstein associate occupies the Oval Office today – Donald Trump – and on February 26th the Wall Street Journal reported that the Department of Justice, under the stewardship of Attorney General Pam Bondi, has been withholding interviews with a woman who accused President Donald Trump of sexual assault back in the 1980s. As the Journal writes, the suppression of this interview “raises new questions about the Justice Department's handling of the Epstein files release and the pages that have been kept private.” The Journal adds that “Trump officials initially opposed the release of the files and then fumbled their response, including inconsistent redactions that exposed dozens of Epstein victims and initially kept some prominent men's names hidden.” However, on March 5th, POLITICO reported that the FBI has now published a trio of FBI interviews with the woman who accused the president of sexually assaulting her in collusion with Jeffrey Epstein. Trump and his allies categorically deny any wrongdoing on the part of the president, with White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt calling the allegations “completely baseless…backed by zero credible evidence, from a sadly disturbed woman who has an extensive criminal history.” This story also highlights what is sure to be the next flashpoint in this saga: on Wednesday, a House committee voted to subpoena Attorney General Pam Bondi to testify about her handling of the Epstein files.* Turning to media news, last week we covered how Paramount-Skydance, led by the Ellison family and backed by the Trump administration, outmaneuvered Netflix to close a deal acquiring Warner Bros. Discovery – including CNN. Throughout this process, many have raised the alarm that if the Ellisons were to get their hands on CNN, they would turn it over to their ideological attack dog, Bari Weiss, as they did with CBS News. Variety is now echoing those concerns, reporting that “It's expected that Weiss will have a big role in steering CNN.” Just what exactly this role will be remains to be seen, but given her tenure as editor-in-chief of CBS News, there is much cause for concern.* In related news, Variety reports Warner Bros. Discovery CEO David Zaslav has filed to sell 4,004,149 shares – over $114 million worth of stock – in the company following the announcement of the sale to Paramount, including Paramount's eye-popping offer of $31 per share. Zaslav retains additional stock and options which he could cash out as the deal moves forward. Curiously, even as the Trump administration backed the Paramount buyout over the Netflix deal, the president himself continues to bank on the fiscal stability of the streaming giant, with the Hollywood Reporter documenting that Trump bought between $600,000 and $1.25 million worth of Netflix debt in January, adding to the $500,000 to $1 million in Netflix bonds that he purchased in December. This story notes that while the Netflix-Warner deal fell through, Netflix walked away with a $2.8 billion “break-up fee,” and an investment grade credit rating, unlike both WBD and Paramount.* Looking at domestic politics, this week primaries were held in Texas and North Carolina which yielded the nomination of James Talarico in Texas, beating out Congresswoman Jasmine Crockett for the Democratic nod, and the razor thin victory of incumbent Valerie Foushee over her progressive challenger Nida Allam in the Durham-Chapel Hill region. But many more primary battles lay ahead, perhaps the most interesting of which is unfolding in Maine, where the Bernie Sanders-backed veteran-turned-oysterman Graham Platner is duking it out with Chuck Schumer's preferred candidate, outgoing Governor Janet Mills. Platner, despite damaging stories, has continued to draw massive crowds and enjoys a huge polling advantage. Last week, Platner's allies, led by United Autoworkers President Shawn Fain, staged a sort of intervention with Schumer, with Fain lambasting the “shortcomings” in Democratic leaders' approach to the 2026 midterms, “particularly their failure to adequately listen to working-class voters.” Michael Monahan, a high-level official in the International Brotherhood of Electrical Workers, also sent a letter to the Democratic Senate Campaign Committee strongly urging the DSCC to “refrain from intervening further in [the Maine] primary.” A mid-February independent poll found Platner with a 38-point lead over Mills among likely Democratic primary voters, yet the party continues to back Mills to the hilt. This from NBC.* Our remaining stories this week concern foreign affairs. First, in South Africa, it seems the forces of the Left are looking to pool their support by entering into a political alliance. According to TimesLIVE, a prominent South African online newspaper, the country's largest standalone Left party, the Economic Freedom Fighters (EFF) has convened with the South African Communist Party (SACP) to discuss such an electoral pact. The SACP has long participated in a tripartite alliance with the African National Congress party (ANC), which has ruled South Africa since the end of Apartheid, but recently announced they would contest elections independently. The EFF and SACP emphasized that their priorities align on the “deep crises confronting South Africa: de-industrialisation, austerity-driven fiscal consolidation, collapsing energy security, mass unemployment, and extreme poverty.”* In another major political realignment, the Green Party of England and Wales is surging as the Labour Party, under the centrist leadership of Prime Minister Keir Starmer, continues to lose ground to the Nigel Farage-led far right party, Reform UK. The rise of the Green Party has been bubbling for some time, as progressive voters feel betrayed by Labour and the momentum behind Jeremy Corbyn's “Your Party” has fizzled, but the first major test occurred recently in the Labour stronghold riding of Groton and Denton in Greater Manchester. According to the BBC, this marks the first ever win for the Greens in a by-election, with 34-year-old plumber Hannah Spencer becoming the party's first ever MP in northern England. Reform ran second, with Labour dropping by 25% into third place. Moreover, Zeteo reports the Greens have leapfrogged ahead of Labour in national polling, second only to Reform and has become the single most popular party among voters under 50. For the past five months, the Greens have been led by self-described “eco-populist” Zack Polanski, and have espoused policies including giving councils the power to control rents, extending free school meals to all children, and imposing a new ‘wealth tax' on assets above £10m.* In Congress, Representative Ro Khanna has introduced the West Bank Human Rights Resolution to Condemn Israeli Settlement Expansion. This resolution is described as utilizing far more specific language to condemn “Israeli settler violence and referencing potential sanctions tools while also calling for a review of US policies that may indirectly subsidise settlement activity,” per the Middle East Eye. In part, this resolution is a response to the Israeli government's February 8th approval of “sweeping changes to land registration and civil control in Areas A and B of the West Bank, which Palestinians say breach the Oslo Accords and advance de facto annexation.” This resolution was drafted in conjunction with Cameron Kasky, the survivor of the 2018 Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School shooting who has become a leading activist on rights for Palestinians in Gaza and the West Bank. In a statement upon the introduction of this resolution, Kasky wrote “this is a necessary measure for Democrats and Republicans to unite behind the upholding of international law. Democrats and Republicans can agree that U.S. taxpayer money being used to subsidize the violation of international law is an outrage.”* Our final two stories concern the U.S. attacks on Iran. First, a bizarre sequence of conflicting claims between the U.S. and Spain have left many observers puzzled. First, on March 3rd, Spanish Prime Minister Pedro Sánchez addressed the Iberian nation, saying “Very often great wars start with a chain of events spiralling out of control due to miscalculations, technical failures, and unforeseen circumstances. Therefore, we must learn from history and cannot play Russian roulette with the fate of millions.” Sánchez warned of “repeating the mistakes of the past,” and drew a comparison with the invasion of Iraq, concluding his government's position is “No to war,” per CNBC. More pointedly, the Spanish government prevented two jointly operated bases in its territory from being used in the strikes on Iran. Trump responded on the 4th by vowing to cut off all trade with Madrid, saying “Spain has been terrible…We don't want anything to do with Spain.” Then, on March 5th, Karoline Leavitt told the press that “With respect to Spain, I think they heard the president's message yesterday loud and clear, and it's my understanding, over the past several hours, they've agreed to cooperate with the U.S. military.” Yet, the Spanish Foreign Minister Jose Manuel Albares immediately responded that “The Spanish government's position on the war in the Middle East ... and the use of our bases has not changed at all.” This also from CNBC. Trump's threat to cut off trade with Spain would be difficult to follow through on, given that the 27 nations in the European Union negotiate trade agreements collectively,* Finally, far from assuaging concerns about the attacks on Iran leading to blowback, the Hill reports that, when asked during a phone call with Time magazine about whether Americans should be worried about a potential strike on the homeland, Trump replied, “I guess.” Trump went on to say “We think about it all the time. We plan for it. But yeah…we expect some things…some people will die. When you go to war, some people will die.” Stunningly, despite Trump openly declaring that we are at war with Iran sans congressional authorization and even casually admitting Americans could be killed on home soil, the feckless Congress has voted down War Powers resolutions in the House and Senate. In the upper house, the bill introduced by Democratic Senator Tim Kaine of Virginia, failed 47-53, with Senator Rand Paul of Kentucky crossing party lines to support it while Senator John Fetterman of Pennsylvania crossed party lines to vote nay, per the AP. A similar measure in the House, introduced by Reps. Ro Khanna and Thomas Massie – the duo behind the Epstein Files Transparency Act and other war powers resolutions including on Venezuela – failed by a vote of 212-219. In addition to Massie, Republican Rep. Warren Davison of Ohio voted in favor of the resolution, while four House Democrats voted nay, per Axios. Again the question is presented to us, if this won't shock Congress to action, what will?This has been Francesco DeSantis, with In Case You Haven't Heard.

Most people say they want politicians held accountable, but most voters don't understand how the legislative process works. In this video, Minnesota State Representative Walter Hudson walks through a real example from the Minnesota House where Democrats claimed to support a fraud-prevention bill — while quietly organizing a strategy to kill it. If you want to understand how politics really works behind the scenes and how a bill becomes a law, this is the kind of process most voters never get to see.https://x.com/WalterHudson⬇️ Watch, think critically, and decide for yourself.

Send a textIn this show, the boys tackle a couple of subjects...Firstly, they discuss whether Democracy would actually be better and get things done if we abolished political parties altogether.Secondly, they discuss whether money has eroded and destroyed the current legal systems, so fairness is no longer right, but rather, who has the bigger funds gets the best representation.But what are your thoughts on any of these subjects? Do you agree with Tony or Tayo, or do you have different views?Tune in and listen to the discussion.

Welcome to another episode of TWIRx – This Week in Pharmacy, where we break down the most important developments impacting the pharmacy profession. This week's show features leaders from across community pharmacy, health systems, healthcare advocacy, and international patient engagement. From PBM reform to patient-centered care and health system growth in Western Pennsylvania, this episode brings together voices shaping the future of pharmacy. Sponsored by Sykes & Company, P.A. Accounting, tax strategy, and advisory services dedicated exclusively to independent pharmacy operators. Segment 1 Austin Murray Communications and Marketing Director – Sykes & Company, P.A. We kick off TWIRx with Austin Murray from Sykes & Company, discussing the NCPA Consumer Marketing Campaign designed to educate the public about the value of community pharmacies. Austin shares insights on: • The importance of telling the community pharmacy story directly to consumers • Why independent pharmacies remain essential healthcare access points • The evolving state of independent pharmacy nationwide • Continued momentum around PBM Reform • Strategic accounting and tax advantages pharmacy operators should understand in today's challenging reimbursement environment Austin also explains how pharmacy-focused accounting firms like Sykes & Company help owners navigate reimbursement pressure, tax planning, and business strategy. Segment 2 Mark Duman Pharmacy 50 Award Winner – United Kingdom International healthcare thought leader Mark Duman joins TWIRx to discuss one of the most important principles in healthcare transformation: The patient must come first. Mark shares his perspective on: • Why healthcare systems must remain patient-centered • How pharmacy can lead the way in improving patient outcomes • Lessons learned from patient engagement initiatives in the UK healthcare system • Why meaningful healthcare innovation always begins by focusing on the patient experience Mark emphasizes that when healthcare professionals keep the patient as the constant focus, better pharmacy care and stronger health systems follow. Segment 3 Dr. Laura Mark, PharmD Vice President of Pharmacy – Allegheny Health Network Next, we welcome Dr. Laura Mark, Vice President of Pharmacy at Allegheny Health Network (AHN), who shares exciting news about new pharmacy operations facilities recently built in Butler County, Pennsylvania.

Segment 4 Eric Pusey Independent Pharmacy Owner – Pennsylvania Closing out this week's episode, pharmacy owner Eric Pusey joins TWIRx to discuss the latest updates on PBM Reform in Pennsylvania. In 2024, Pennsylvania enacted Act 77, a landmark law aimed at increasing oversight and fairness in pharmacy benefit management. Eric explains how the law: • Grants new regulatory authority to the Pennsylvania Insurance Department • Restricts PBM patient steering to pharmacies owned or affiliated with benefit managers • Improves transparency requirements for PBM operations • Establishes payment protections intended to level the playing field for community pharmacies Patient steering practices have long limited competition and reduced patient choice. Eric shares why these reforms represent an important step toward protecting both patients and independent pharmacy providers across the Commonwealth.

For my last conversation with Sam see here: https://youtu.be/Q06L7Uxq4PY?si=su6O18LIw3fF_JKfRabbi Sam Stern returns to The Fifth Question for a wide-ranging conversation on Reform Judaism, Zionism, anti-Zionism, and the future of American Jewish institutions. We start with Stern's recent op-ed—“Reform Judaism chose Zionism. That was not a mistake.”—and trace the Reform movement's historical arc from the 1885 Pittsburgh Platform to the 1937 Columbus Platform, and into today's post–October 7 landscape. Along the way, we tackle one of the central fault lines shaping liberal Jewish life right now: the tension between universalism vs. Jewish peoplehood/particularism, and what happens when Jewish identity is reduced to general ethics or political activism.This episode also digs into the question so many young Jews have inherited: why is Israel always framed as “complicated”? Stern argues that “nuance poisoning” and institutional risk-aversion have pushed Jewish education to start with critique instead of values—leaving students without the language, confidence, or backbone to stand up for themselves and for the Jewish community. We also discuss the role of Jewish institutions, the need to set an Overton window for communal boundaries, and whether the Reform movement can remain a big tent with real guardrails—including how it speaks (or fails to speak) to Sephardic/Mizrahi realities and political diversity in the American Jewish community.Topics & keywords: Reform Judaism and Zionism, Reform movement platforms, anti-Zionism, Jewish peoplehood, universalism vs particularism, Jewish institutional leadership, Jewish Overton window, Jewish education and Israel, campus antisemitism, post–October 7 American Jewish life, HUC, Reconstructionist movement, Hillel vs Chabad, Sephardic and Mizrahi American Jews.Chapters (video time):0:00 Intro + the op-ed: “Reform Judaism chose Zionism”0:23 Reform history: Pittsburgh (1885) to Columbus (1937)3:26 Institutions failing Jews + the need for new leadership5:25 Cycles of idealism: liberal universalism vs Zionist “pessimism”8:02 Universalism vs particularism in Reform Judaism10:04 If Judaism = universal ethics, why be Jewish?13:22 Peoplehood as a target of modern “universalism”16:02 Being “outflanked” + boundaries in a big-tent movement17:28 Survey language: who counts as a Zionist?21:13 “Israel is complicated” and how education frames values26:55 “Nuance poisoning” and starting with critique vs meaning38:28 The Jewish Overton window and communal boundaries40:26 Reform institutions and partisan politics44:27 Refocusing on Jews, Jewish education, and peoplehood53:54 ClosingIf you have thoughts on this episode—especially whether Reform conference food is fully kosher—drop a comment.

Passover (Pesach in Hebrew) is widely regarded as the oldest continually celebrated festival in human history. For millennia, Jewish families have gathered to remember the night God struck down the gods of Egypt and delivered His people. Across time and tradition, Pesach remains the one feast nearly all Jews observe, whether Orthodox or secular, Reform or traditional. Ithas endured because it is not just a tradition; it is a prophetic sign." Today on Crosswalk Colorado Springs, Jeff talks to Pastor Devin Knuckles of Vista Grande Baptist Church about his recently published Passover Seder guide, "Behold, the LambSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

On this episode of Astonishing Healthcare, Lloyd Fiorini, General Counsel & Chief Compliance Officer at Judi Health, returns to the studio for a discussion about the barrage of regulatory changes shaping the pharmacy benefit manager (PBM) landscape in early 2026. Within just two weeks, the Department of Labor announced new proposed rules, the Consolidated Appropriations Act of 2026 became law, and the FTC's announced a settlement with Express Scripts. Then, to top it all off, TrumpRx went live.Lloyd offers clear, helpful explanations of the key takeaways from each of these concurrent reforms aimed at improving transparency and how PBMs operate and interact with the other stakeholders in the supply chain, from independent pharmacies to patients and plan sponsors (employers). Whether you're responsible for a self-funded plan or overseeing a Medicare Part D plan, this episode provides the detail and insights about where the puck is going that you need. As Lloyd said, "I think we've made a great step forward, but the work isn't done."It's also worth giving a shoutout to previous guest Jim Winkler, as "Change is Imminent" is in the title of AH090!Episode HighlightsThe Department of Labor's historic proposed rules on PBM disclosures fills a gap left by the CAA of 2021The Consolidated Appropriations Act of 2026 redefines the financial alignment of pharmacy benefits beyond just Medicare Part Patient/plan member protection seems to be what the FTC's recent settlement was all aboutTrumpRx signals a broader shift toward transparent, cost-plus pricing models, but it's just for cash-paying customers, at least for nowDelinking and efforts to block vertical integration are hotly contestedRelated ContentAH095 - What's in Store for the New Year?

In this episode, listeners get to know the leadership of the California Pharmacists Association (CPhA), exploring their professional journeys, personal backgrounds, and the experiences that shaped their commitment to advancing the pharmacy profession. Susan Bonilla, CEO of the California Pharmacists Association, joins Dr. Sean Kim, PharmD, Vice President of Practice & Professional Development at CPhA, to discuss California's progress in pharmacy benefit manager (PBM) reform. As the largest state in the nation, California continues to play a significant role in shaping policies that strengthen patient access to pharmacy care and improve transparency within the prescription drug supply chain. Bonilla and Kim share insights into the reforms California has achieved, the legislative and regulatory priorities currently underway, and how these efforts may influence PBM reform conversations across the country.

After a brief discussion of Trump and Netanyahu's war with Iran, we turn to defeating authoritarianism by fighting for policies that help people with their most pressing priorities, like good paying jobs, well funded public schools, healthcare and childcare. We discuss the introduction of new legislation for a BadgerCare Public Option, which represents the most comprehensive healthcare affordability proposal introduced in Wisconsin this session. The legislation would open Wisconsin's trusted BadgerCare program to anyone who lacks adequate employer-sponsored coverage. Citizen Action announces a statewide virtual town hall with all the Democratic Governor candidates, Tuesday, April 14th 6pm. We bring attention to Legislative Republicans taking a chunk out of Department of Public Instruction's (DPI's) already approved funding over debunked allegations that they paid for a junket in the Dells. What kind of budget deal allows the Republicans to unilaterally veto agreed funding levels after ignoring the results of their own investigation? We lament the expiration of the Warren Knowles-Gaylord Nelson Stewardship Program due to GOP opposition following a large land purchase to extend the Ice Age Trail in Devils Lake area. And, as the Legislature may do nothing to regulate data centers – as Big Tech and utilities want – local people fight back, as a Judge allows a Port Washington referendum to continue. Finally, what is the division between Governor Evers and Legislative Democrats on gerrymandering? Will Vos reach another damaging deal with Evers before they both head off into the sunset?

Care about independent and ethical news? Support Media Storm on ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Patreon⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠! Last week's by-election in Gorton and Denton saw massive losses for Labour and a massive win for Hannah Spencer of the Green Party, despite Reform's overconfidence. So did the Greens cheat, as Reform claim… or are Reform just really bad losers? They seem to think abusive Muslim husbands stole their vote, and that the definition of sectarianism is brown people voting for a white woman in a party led by a gay Jewish man. And perhaps worse - the mainstream media think these ideas are worth multiple headlines, articles and broadcast discussions. Also: remember when Trump said he'd achieved 'everlasting peace' in the Middle East? Since he joined Israel in bombing Iran on Saturday; Lebanon, Bahrain, Kuwait, Iraq, Syria, Jordan, Cyprus, Saudi Arabia, Qatar, the UAE and Oman are caught in the crossfires. Trump insisted the attack was an act of self-defence, and now US officials are scrambling to justify exactly how that's true. Has the media learned from its devastating mistakes in 2003, when it circulated false intelligence of ‘weapons of mass destruction' in Iraq? Or are they doomed to repeat the same mistakes?

In this episode of the World of Higher Education Podcast, host Alex Usher speaks with Georgi Stoytchev about the structure and future of higher education in Bulgaria.They discuss how the system evolved after the fall of socialism, the role of the Bulgarian Academy of Sciences as the country's main research hub, and Bulgaria's distinctive national university ranking system, which uses administrative and graduate earnings data and is linked to performance-based funding.The conversation also touches on a recent tuition fee controversy, the involvement of Gen Z in anti-corruption protests, and the demographic pressures that are likely to shape the future of Bulgarian higher education.

This week on The Trawl, Marina and Jemma enjoy one of life's small but deeply satisfying pleasures: Nigel Farage losing an election and immediately blaming everyone except himself.Instead of the predicted triumph, Reform got absolutely walloped by a Green candidate who is, among other things, a plumber. Which is awkward when your entire campaign strategy revolves around telling everyone you're the voice of “ordinary people”.Naturally, the reaction has been measured and dignified. Just kidding. Nigel Farage immediately blamed “sectarian voting”, Reform supporters blamed Muslims, the right-wing press blamed immigrants, and the Telegraph briefly blamed reality itself. Meanwhile. the BBC is still trying to work out how to report a Green victory without sounding too enthusiastic about it.The ladies trawl through the fallout: the media meltdown, the conspiracy theories, Labour's dodgy campaign tactics, and the curious phenomenon of the losers getting far more airtime than the people who actually won.Plus: Nigel Farage clutching at more straws than a masturbating scarecrow, some spectacularly unhinged press coverage, and one glorious heckling moment that perfectly sums up the mood.Democracy - occasionally it still works.Thank you for sharing and please do follow us @MarinaPurkiss @jemmaforte @TheTrawlPodcast Patreonhttps://patreon.com/TheTrawlPodcast Youtubehttps://www.youtube.com/@TheTrawl Twitterhttps://twitter.com/TheTrawlPodcastIf you've even mildly enjoyed The Trawl, you'll love the unfiltered, no-holds-barred extras from Jemma & Marina over on Patreon, including:• Exclusive episodes of The Trawl Goss – where Jemma and Marina spill backstage gossip, dive into their personal lives, and often forget the mic is on• Early access to The Trawl Meets…• Glorious ad-free episodesPlus, there's a bell-free community of over 3,300 legends sparking brilliant chat.And it's your way to support the pod which the ladies pour their hearts, souls (and occasional anxiety) into.

Joshua Eyler, the author of Failing Our Future: How Grades Harm Students, And What We Can Do About It (JHUP 2024), is among the leading experts on grading reform. Praised by the likes of Cathy N. Davidson and Jeff Selingo, Eyler's book is roughly divided between indictment of current practices and exploring practical solutions. In every case, however, the answer keeps coming back: fundamental reform is necessary. Join us for a lively and perhaps surprising conversation about a too often taken-for-granted core academic practice.

This edition recorded before the US attacks on Iran. The dust is still settling from Gorton and Denton. Are the Greens playing with fire with their voter targeting? If Keir Starmer's leadership is back in question, how long has he got? Are Reform going full Trump with their whining about “cheating”? And can anyone think of anything at all to say about the Tories? Plus: Is there any appetite for an ICE-style immigration Gestapo like Zia Yusuf wants for his “Deportation Command”?

Sir Keir Starmer has been forced into an embarrassing scramble to send a warship to Cyprus, after France announced a major deployment to Mediterranean.Camilla and Tim speak to Labour MP Emily Thornberry, chair of the foreign affairs select committee, who has called the US-Israel strikes on Iran illegal – and tells The Daily T, “you can't attack a country because you don't like it and because you want it to be different.”Meanwhile, the Chancellor has delivered her Spring Statement, in which she took the opportunity to re-run some of Labour's most tired attack lines. Tim and Camilla are joined by shadow chancellor Mel Stride and his former party colleague, Reform's Robert Jenrick, to unpack how Rachel Reeve's rosy-sounding figures are hiding a much darker economic picture.We want to hear from you!
