Blue-Winged Teal Duckling Survival Jumped From 20% to 70% | Grant Rhodes Biologist Grant Rhodes returns to the North American Waterfowler Podcast for the third year in a row to share what he learned during his fourth field season studying Blue-winged Teal across the Prairie Pothole Region. Grant and his team are using drones equipped with thermal imaging, radio telemetry, and uniquely marked hens to study Blue-winged Teal broods and better understand what actually drives duckling survival. And this year produced some incredible results. After seeing duckling survival around 20% in previous years, Grant's raw numbers from this season showed survival approaching 70%. What changed? Water. We discuss how wet conditions across the breeding grounds created more seasonal wetlands, increased food and invertebrate availability, provided better concealment from predators, spread broods across the landscape, and allowed young teal to move between wetlands. We also get into: • Why Blue-winged Teal were chosen for this research• How thermal drones are changing the way researchers count duck broods• Why nest predation was so severe during the Saskatchewan years• Ravens and their impact on nesting success• Predator management and nest survival• Why some broods traveled as far as a mile• A hen that went from 11 ducklings to 21 through brood adoption• What ducklings are eating during their first weeks of life• Why Grant believes we could see a significant increase in Blue-winged Teal following this year's production• What harvest really means for Blue-winged Teal populations• Why habitat and breeding-ground conditions remain so important to waterfowl populations• Where Grant's research goes from here This is Grant's fourth field season studying Blue-winged Teal and his third appearance on the podcast. Each year we've been able to follow the research as it develops, and this may be the most interesting year yet.

It could be said that Cecil Rhodes quest for hegemony over the diamond industry of South Africa was quickened by rumours of significant gold discoveries in the Transvaal. Others say not, because no-one was aware in these heady days of just how valuable the Motherlode of Main Reef was to become. First a quick note. The easiest way to picture Kimberley in 1886–87 is not as a collection of neatly separated modern mining companies, each with its own mine. It was more like a gigantic underground chessboard, where the four great diamond mines around Kimberley—De Beers, Kimberley, Dutoitspan and Bultfontein—had originally been divided into hundreds of individual claims. A claim was essentially a small piece of ground, and in the early days an individual digger or small partnership could own one or several of them. As the workings became deeper and more dangerous, those little claims were progressively bundled together into larger holdings and companies. By the mid-1880s, therefore, you had companies that owned groups of claims inside a particular mine, while the word "mine" referred to the entire diamond-bearing pipe or working area. So, if you were standing in Kimberley in 1886 and somebody said, "I'm working in the Kimberley Mine," that did not necessarily mean he worked for a company called Kimberley Mine. He might have worked for Kimberley Central, or the French Company, or Standard, or one of the smaller interests that still held claims there. The mine was the physical hole in the ground; the companies were the owners of pieces of that hole. In 1886–87 the whole industry was therefore in the middle of a gigantic transition from hundreds of little claim-holders hacking away independently at the diamond-bearing ground, toward a handful of enormous corporations controlling entire mines. Underground mining was replacing the enormous open pits because the old workings were becoming dangerously deep; companies were sinking shafts and driving tunnels down into the pipes. At the same time, Cecil John Rhodes and Barney Barnato were consolidating ownership above ground. By 1886 Rhodes wasn't powerful enough to overcome other significant owners in Kimberley, although most of the other entrepreneurs believed amalgamation was good for diamonds — no-one wanted to be dominated by Rhodes — or each other. And Rhodes was seeking domination. While the majority of those in Kimberley scrabbled and scratched, the magnates were high on the hog. They frequented the Kimberley Club, launched by 74 well-heeled citizens who pledged 100 pounds each, a double storey structure that impressed as it rose from the flat Griqualand surrounds. Evenings were full of dinners and dances, black tie and evening dress abounded, awash in the blaze of the new electric lights, the first in South Africa, which twinkled inside the homes of the rich, and splashed along the streets. Men and women mingled, thronged and thrusted, the tuxedo dressed elites sat in their plush chairs in the Kimberly club, pressing the electric bells to call waiters who slid effortlessly across the plush velvet pile and Turkish carpets. Most evenings sitting side by side in the lounge were Cecil John Rhodes and his friend and co-shareholder Alfred Beit, sipping on their favourite tipple which was black velvet, a mixture of champaign and stout beer. Suitably fortified, they would dance, but let me hasten to add, not together, Rhodes with the plainest girl apparently while Beit, who was a short man, often sought out the tallest women. A weird vaudeville show and watched by a few sober enough to register irony. Alfred Beit was the key to what happened next because he had already drawn the attention of one of the most powerful capitalists in the world — Nathanial Natty Rothschild of Rothschild's bank in London. Beit wrote a letter of introduction for Rhodes, who sailed off to England where he met Natty Rothschild. The first meeting didn't start well. Rothschild was frosty.

No food on this planet's going to fix your progesterone, and estrogen dominance is not nearly as simple as the word makes it sound.I know, I know. That's a lot to hit you with in one sentence. But I needed to say it before we even got started, because these two things get more misinformation thrown at them than almost anything else in the hormone space.That's exactly why I brought my friend Dr. Heather Rhodes on the podcast this week: she and I both get the same questions over and over in our practices, and we're both so tired of watching women chase quick fixes that were never going to work in the first place. So we sat down and answered your biggest hormone questions, no fluff, no clickbait, just the actual truth about what's going on in your body. We're covering estrogen dominance, progesterone production, the "no time to balance my hormones" excuse, and what actually moves the needle when it comes to feeling good in your body again.Fair warning: we are busting a few myths in this one, including one that might make you side-eye your favorite wellness influencer just a little.Here's what we get into:The mindset trap behind "I don't have time to balance my hormones" and why your brain might be the one keeping you stuckThe blunt truth about whether food alone can raise your progesterone (spoiler, it's more complicated than any reel will tell you)The sneaky reason your labs keep coming back "normal" even though you feel like a completely different person for two weeks a monthFour (maybe five) totally different reasons you could be dealing with estrogen dominance symptoms, and why treating all of them the same way can backfireWhy going back to basics, not adding more supplements or more rules, is usually where the biggest shifts happenA mindset shift Heather shares about what your symptoms are actually trying to tell you, and why hearing it might change how you see your whole cycleLet's start with time, because I think almost every woman I know says some version of "I just don't have time for this." Heather made a point that stuck with me. If your brain is locked onto the belief that you don't have enough time, that is exactly what it's going to keep proving true. And being stretched that thin, having everyone need a piece of you all day long, can literally be part of what's throwing your hormones off to begin with.Here's the part that surprised me though. You're already eating. You're already making food choices every single day. You're probably already moving your body in some way. The work isn't necessarily adding more to your plate; it's getting more intentional about what you're already doing. Heather said something to a client once that I think about constantly: "You didn't need to go back to the basics. You were already doing the basics. You just weren't very good at them yet." Ouch. But also, kind of a relief.Then we got into progesterone, and this is where I need you to sit down for a second. That reel telling you "eat these foods to boost progesterone" is oversimplified; Heather flat out says there are no foods that increase progesterone. None. You could eat three buckets of ashwagandha a day (please don't), and if your nervous system doesn't feel safe, your body still isn't going to prioritize making more of it. Your progesterone being low is a signal, not a supplement deficiency. It could be stress, it could be undereating, it could be your body simply not feeling safe enough to ovulate well. Nutrition matters, don't get me wrong, but it's a piece of a much bigger picture.And can we talk about estrogen dominance for a second? Because I feel like every woman I know has self-diagnosed this one at some point, myself included. Here's the thing that Heather broke down so well. You could have all the classic "high estrogen" symptoms and actually have low estrogen that's just not clearing properly. You could have symptoms because you're not ovulating at all, which means estrogen is the only hormone showing up, even if your levels are technically low. You could be dealing with estrogen mimickers from your environment, your skincare, your food containers, or your job if you work in a salon. There are at least four, maybe five, completely different roots that can all look identical on the surface. That's exactly why grabbing an estrogen blocker off the internet without knowing your actual cause can leave you worse off than when you started.I know this can feel like a lot. Heather made a comment that made me laugh because it's so true: your brain will absolutely convince you that fixing this is going to take way more time and effort than it actually will. But once you know your starting point, the changes are usually smaller and simpler than you think. One of my favorite moments in this episode is when we talk about seeing your symptoms as your body talking to you instead of your body being broken or working against you. That shift alone changes how you show up for yourself every single day.If you've been spinning your wheels trying every protocol on the internet and nothing sticks, this episode will help you understand why and give you a clearer starting point than another list of foods to eat.Press play and let's figure out what your body's actually been trying to tell you this whole time.CONNECT WITH DR.

Onwards! Or more accurately - downwards! Because we're continuing the saga of early gold digging around the farm Langlaagte, and the other farms like Turfontein, it is 1886, hundreds of treasure hunters have descended on the empty veld just south of the Witwatersrand Ridge. First a quick note about Kimberley, where the mining magnates were locked in a struggle for supremacy trying to secure control over the lucrative industry. As you heard last episode, one of these, JB Robinson, had run into cash difficulties but was determined to travel to the Witwatersrand to assess for himself just how much gold could be mined in the Main Reef discovered by the two Georges. He'd borrowed 20 000 pounds from another Kimberley magnate Alfred Beit, and along with Beit's partner Maurice Marcus, launched the Robinson Syndicate with a total capital of 30 000 pounds. Then he leapt aboard a stagecoach for the gruelling four day trip between Kimberley and Potchefstroom where he arrived on the 22 July 1886. When this archetype converged on the Witwatersrand in 1886, they encountered a landscape defined by absolute physical indifference. The main reef was not an easy vein of rich quartz waiting for a prospector's spade as you've heard. It was a mysterious sloping and tilted sheet of ancient pyritic conglomerate, the banket, plunging deep into the earth's crust. On the surface, the highveld in July is icy at night, sometimes sleet blows when the antartic fronts charge up from the south, sweeping the ridge with handfulls of pain. When Robinson pitched up and set about breaking the land to fit his intent, it was a virgin of veld, clean and wide open. Within a decade the land had been utterly transformed by thousands of men forcing their way along the sloping banket, intent on finding treasure. JB Robinson spent a few days crunching through the conglomerate and realised that this reef was like no-other. How deep it went was still unknown, but that it was extensive was obvious. Petronella Oosthuizen, the widow, owned Portion D of LAnglaagte Farm, and her fortunes were indeed improving by the day. Robinston made a b-line straight for her house, and secured mining and water rights from the widow on July 27th 1886, paying 450 pounds with an additional option to buy the farm outright for 6000 pounds. In September the canny investor did just that, and also negotiated mining and water rights from the owner of Langlaagte Portion B, Anna de Beer Mulder. That cost Robinson one thousand pounds. Robinson later faced criticisms and a whispering campaign, it was rumoured that he had used his charm to seduce Petronella Oosthuizen before negotiating her land away. Petronella was paid the equivalent of 7 million Rand for her land — not a little — but in comparison to it's value, not a lot either. But he didn't stop there. Remember Robinson had a war chest of 30 000 pounds and was determined to buy up as much land as he could. He purchased fifty percent of a portion of Vogelstruisfontein Farm, the other half was owned by prospector Jan Bantjies as well as 50 percent of the Turfontein Farm — next door to Langlaagte. By snapping up the 12 000 hectares, Robinson was the first of a wave of Kimberley's rich who would make the journey north to the Witwatersrand. The second wave included Cecil John Rhodes. There is a bit of a myth about his involvement, that he was a late comer to the scene. That is inaccurate, if you cast your memory back to a far earlier episode, I explained how Rhodes had bought the farm Roodepoort near the gold bearing reefs more than ten years earlier — there it was a purchase based on a whim. A bit of luck you'd say. Rhodes had been present that day in April 1886 when Kimberley shop keeper Alexander had crushed conglomerate brought to Kimberley from the Witwatersrand, he had seen the public panning demonstration that revealed a gleaming line of wealth and was impressed as was JB Robinson.

Ben Rhodes served as one of Barack Obama's closest foreign-policy aides, holding the role of Deputy National Security Advisor for Strategic Communications and Speechwriting from 2009 to 2017. He acted as the lead negotiator in secret talks that normalised U.S.–Cuba relations and was central in building political support for the Iran nuclear deal. Since leaving government, Rhodes has been an outspoken critic of Donald Trump and his efforts to dismantle Obama's foreign policy legacy, moves Rhodes argues have destabilised the world and left America vulnerable.; In June 2026 Rhodes came to Intelligence Squared to make sense of America in 2026 and chart a path back to its democratic ideals. Drawing on his new book All We Say: A History of the United States in Fifteen Speeches, Rhodes traced the long battle over what it means to be American — from Benjamin Franklin's case for compromise to the culture war speeches that foreshadowed Donald Trump. He revealed the extraordinary power that words and oratory have had in redirecting the nation, and asked what they might still achieve at a time when American identity, and truth itself, is fiercely contested. --- This is the first instalment of a two-part episode.

Before Tiger Woods transformed golf, before Charley Sifford broke the PGA Tour's color barrier, there was Ted Rhodes — a remarkably gifted player whose career unfolded largely outside the spotlight because the game itself refused to let him in. This week, return guest Dan Taylor joins to discuss his new book, "Out of the Rough: Ted Rhodes And His Fight Against Golf's Color Barrier," the remarkable story of one of the greatest golfers most sports fans have never heard of. From humble beginnings in segregated Nashville to competing against the game's biggest names, Rhodes spent decades proving his talent while confronting the barriers that kept Black golfers from the highest levels of the sport. Taylor also explores the vital role of the United Golf Association, the organization that created competitive opportunities for Black golfers during an era when mainstream golf remained largely closed to them. Together, Rhodes and the UGA tell a story that extends far beyond fairways and scorecards, revealing an overlooked chapter in both golf history and the broader struggle for civil rights. Along the way, we examine Rhodes' friendship with boxing legend Joe Louis, his influence on future pioneers including Charley Sifford and Lee Elder, and why even Tiger Woods recognized Rhodes as one of the figures who helped make his own historic success possible. + + + SUPPORT THE SHOW: Buy Us a Coffee: https://ko-fi.com/goodseatsstillavailable The "Good Seats" Store: http://tee.pub/lic/RdiDZzQeHSY BUY THE BOOK: "Out of the Rough: Ted Rhodes And His Fight Against Golf's Color Barrier": https://link.amazon/B011VTLCa SPONSOR THANKS: Royal Retros (10% off promo code: SEATS): https://www.royalretros.com/?ref=SEATS Old School Shirts.com (10% off promo code: GOODSEATS): https://oldschoolshirts.com/goodseats FIND AND FOLLOW: Linktree: https://linktr.ee/GoodSeatsStillAvailable Web: https://goodseatsstillavailable.com/ Bluesky: https://bsky.app/profile/goodseatsstillavailable.com X/Twitter: https://twitter.com/GoodSeatsStill YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@goodseatsstillavailable Threads: https://www.threads.net/@goodseatsstillavailable Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/goodseatsstillavailable/ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/GoodSeatsStillAvailable/ LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/good-seats-still-available/

Sunday BBC Church Worship Sermon 8 2 2026 A Kingdom that Cannot be Shaken Hebrews 12 - Rhodes - trimmed by Patrick Rhodes
Ben Rhodes served as one of Barack Obama's closest foreign-policy aides, holding the role of Deputy National Security Advisor for Strategic Communications and Speechwriting from 2009 to 2017. He acted as the lead negotiator in secret talks that normalised U.S.–Cuba relations and was central in building political support for the Iran nuclear deal. Since leaving government, Rhodes has been an outspoken critic of Donald Trump and his efforts to dismantle Obama's foreign policy legacy, moves Rhodes argues have destabilised the world and left America vulnerable.; In June 2026 Rhodes came to Intelligence Squared to make sense of America in 2026 and chart a path back to its democratic ideals. Drawing on his new book All We Say: A History of the United States in Fifteen Speeches, Rhodes traced the long battle over what it means to be American — from Benjamin Franklin's case for compromise to the culture war speeches that foreshadowed Donald Trump. He revealed the extraordinary power that words and oratory have had in redirecting the nation, and asked what they might still achieve at a time when American identity, and truth itself, is fiercely contested.

Acts 21:1-16 English Standard Version Paul Goes to Jerusalem 21 And when we had parted from them and set sail, we came by a straight course to Cos, and the next day to Rhodes, and from there to Patara. 2 And having found a ship crossing to Phoenicia, we went aboard and set sail. 3 When we had come in sight of Cyprus, leaving it on the left we sailed to Syria and landed at Tyre, for there the ship was to unload its cargo. 4 And having sought out the disciples, we stayed there for seven days. And through the Spirit they were telling Paul not to go on to Jerusalem. 5 When our days there were ended, we departed and went on our journey, and they all, with wives and children, accompanied us until we were outside the city. And kneeling down on the beach, we prayed 6 and said farewell to one another. Then we went on board the ship, and they returned home. 7 When we had finished the voyage from Tyre, we arrived at Ptolemais, and we greeted the brothers and stayed with them for one day.8 On the next day we departed and came to Caesarea, and we entered the house of Philip the evangelist, who was one of the seven, and stayed with him. 9 He had four unmarried daughters, who prophesied. 10 While we were staying for many days, a prophet named Agabus came down from Judea. 11 And coming to us, he took Paul's belt and bound his own feet and hands and said, “Thus says the Holy Spirit, ‘This is how the Jews at Jerusalem will bind the man who owns this belt and deliver him into the hands of the Gentiles.'”12 When we heard this, we and the people there urged him not to go up to Jerusalem. 13 Then Paul answered, “What are you doing, weeping and breaking my heart? For I am ready not only to be imprisoned but even to die in Jerusalem for the name of the Lord Jesus.”14 And since he would not be persuaded, we ceased and said, “Let the will of the Lord be done.” 15 After these days we got ready and went up to Jerusalem. 16 And some of the disciples from Caesarea went with us, bringing us to the house of Mnason of Cyprus, an early disciple, with whom we should lodge.

Dr. Heather and I just did something we've never done on this podcast before. Can two hormone practitioners actually guess a client's gut test results just from her symptoms alone?That's the game we played on this week's episode, and honestly, neither of us knew if we'd end up looking brilliant or completely humbled. We took a real client case, someone newer to us who we barely knew yet, and we called our shots on her labs before opening a single result: just her age, her symptoms, and a peek at how she eats.Then we pulled up her actual GI-MAP and Full Monty panel live and found out exactly how close we got.It's part detective game, part science breakdown, part two friends arguing over bacteria names we can barely pronounce. We nerded out for almost forty minutes on one test, and it's one of my favorite episodes we've ever recorded.Here's what we get into:Why a client eating clean, whole foods can still be bloated, exhausted, and moody for a full week before her periodThe gut bacteria and mood connection that had Heather and me both going Wait, say that againWhat a low SigA marker can tell you about immune function, gut lining, and even fertilityWhy a history of constipation is one of the first things we flag before we even look at a testHow H. pylori and low stomach acid quietly sabotage digestion without you ever knowing it's happeningWhether our predictions actually matched her real results, or if one of us had to eat some serious wordsIf you've ever sat there staring at labs that say normal while your body is screaming otherwise, I made this one for you. Normal doesn't mean thriving. It just means you landed somewhere inside a range built for the general population, not built for you.This client's story is honestly so relatable it's almost funny. She's doing everything "right." Four eggs, good fats, whole foods, eating at home most nights. And she's still dealing with a full week of PMS symptoms before her period even shows up. Low energy. Irritability. Some days that dip into sadness she can't explain. If you've been there, wondering why doing all the right things isn't fixing how you feel, this episode walks through the actual why behind it.What made this one so fun (and honestly a little vulnerable for both of us) is that Heather and I had to commit to our guesses out loud before we had any idea if we were right. She'd say something like "I think Morganella is going to be high" and I'm sitting there going, nothing crazy, and then we just had to wait and see who got humbled first. Turns out guessing is a lot easier when your name isn't on the test.We talk through her gut bacteria levels, what butyrate actually does for your mood (it's more connected to how you feel emotionally than people realize), and how low good bacteria can quietly wear down your gut lining without a single obvious symptom pointing you there. We also break down beta-glucuronidase, which sounds intimidating but is really just the marker that tells you whether your body is clearing estrogen properly or pulling it back in for a rerun nobody asked for.Then there's the SigA conversation, which might be my favorite part of the whole episode. That one marker says so much about whether your immune system has any fight left in it, and it matters even more if you're trying to conceive. We really go there.What I love most about this episode is the reminder that you don't have to have sixteen different problems to explain why you feel off. A lot of the time it really is one or two things: bile flow, mineral depletion, a gut lining that needs some love, quietly running the whole show behind the scenes. Once you can actually see what's happening, the fix is usually a lot less complicated than you'd expect.So if you've been staring at your own "normal" results, feeling confused about why your body doesn't feel normal at all, or if you just want to sit in on two practitioners guessing, bickering a little, and geeking out over gut bacteria in real time, hit play.Guess along with us. See if your gut instinct beats ours.CONNECT WITH DR. HEATHER:WebsiteIG: @drheatherrhodesNEED HELP FIXING YOUR HORMONES?

Who is the greatest wrestling family of all time?
What does it mean to be American? Who gets to decide? Americans have debated those questions for 250 years. The issue of what it means to be an American shaped the compromises in the Constitution and the arguments we've been having ever since—spawning abolitionism, secession, and civil war; populism, mass migration, and global leadership; movements for reform and the backlashes to them. Former Obama speechwriter Ben Rhodes has examined the speeches of 15 people that shaped and reflected the argument Americans have been having from our founding to the present day's heated divisions. Rhodes has traced the history of our battle over identity. The result is a revealing portrait of America itself: a nation divided between two stories—one of inheritance, power, and exclusion; the other of equality, striving, and belonging. Drawing on a decade writing for Barack Obama, Rhodes also shows us how words can redirect a nation, what makes a speech enduring, and why oratory is a unique form of persuasion in American democracy. From Benjamin Franklin's call for compromise at the Constitutional Convention, to Alexander Stephens' case for white supremacy as the cornerstone of the Confederacy; from Martin Luther King's dream of true equality to Donald Trump's rallying cry against democracy itself, these speeches remind us that history is a living argument. At a time when American identity—and truth—is contested, Rhodes comes to Commonwealth Club World Affairs to offer a fresh and powerful look at who we really are and who we could still become.

Misha Glenny and guests discuss the origins and evolution of an alliance which transformed the geopolitics of the classical world: the Delian League. Since the start of the 5th Century BCE, city states across Greece had been fighting a series of armed conflicts in the Greco-Persian Wars. After the defeat of a second Persian invasion in 478 BCE, a league of cities across Greece came together and formed a new alliance led by Athens. That alliance is now known as the Delian League, after the island of Delos where it was established. In the following decades, Athens used the Delian League to grow its own wealth and formidable naval power. Cities which tried to leave the alliance found themselves violently put down and their lands confiscated by the Athenians. What had begun as a cooperative alliance sworn to resist the Persian Empire gradually started to seem like it may have created another imperial power: the Athenian Empire.WithLeah Lazar Lecturer in Hellenistic Culture at the University of ManchesterPolly Low Professor in the Department of Classics and Ancient History at the University of DurhamAndPaul Cartledge AG Leventis Senior Research Fellow of Clare College, University of CambridgeProducer: Martha OwenAristophanes (trans.

What do you do after things fall apart—and what do you do in the split second before you make the same choice again? In this episode, Steve Kamb's How to Try Again and Jonathan Rhodes and Joanna Grover's The Choice Point offer a practical guide to getting unstuck. Kamb shows why failure doesn't send us back to square one, while Rhodes and Grover explain how the small decision points in everyday life can move us closer to the future we actually want. Together, these books make a reassuring case for self-compassion, clearer choices, and beginning again—on purpose.

Over the last decade, white evangelicals in the U.S. have lost their moral credibility. In response, Peter Wehner says the church should embrace a form of "Christian humanism." The Holy Post crew discusses his article, what he gets right, and why that label may be a barrier for some. Kaitlyn interviews biblical scholar Michael Rhodes about his book,"Reimagining Biblical Politics: What Scripture Says About Public Life and Why It Matters." Rather than looking to specific verses to define our political positions, Rhodes says we must allow all of Scripture to shape our imaginations and then use discernment as we engage our unique political context. Also this week—controversy over the design of the Obama Presidential Center in Chicago, how faith-based apps are gamifying Christianity, and the benefits of talking to dogs.

Today on The Gist, we explore the collapse of the bipartisan affordable housing package on Capitol Hill. Then, former Obama deputy national security adviser and chief speechwriter Ben Rhodes returns for the conclusion of his conversation on All We Say: The Battle for American Identity, A History in 15 Speeches. Rhodes reacts to historical audio from nuclear negotiator Wendy Sherman to define the explicit red lines of the 2015 Iran nuclear deal, detailing how negotiated limitations and sweeping supply chain inspections remain superior to the temporary setbacks of military strikes. Finally, in the spiel, a look at the New York primary and why newly elected congressional candidate Darializa Avila Chevalier represents a low for the party.

Today on The Gist, lack of civic information and public debates available to voters ahead of the New York state assembly primary elections. Then, former Obama deputy national security adviser and chief speechwriter Ben Rhodes joins the show to discuss his new book, All We Say: The Battle for American Identity, A History in 15 Speeches. He breaks down how historical icons from Seneca Chief Red Jacket to Abraham Lincoln used the power of rhetoric to push for progressive change without resorting to moral purity tests. Rhodes critiques the modern political landscape, explaining how the online left's reliance on shaming has backfired compared to the unyielding optimism of early Obama campaigns.
