In 2018 my newspaper died. Well, actually, the emaciated carcass of the Austin American Statesman still had a feeble pulse. But its journalistic voice and soul were gone, stripped out by the notorious financial predators of Gannett, the huge media conglomerate that had recently bought the paper.Happily, though, the Statesman has made a near-miraculous recovery, thanks to a small-but-feisty band of actual journalists who believe in local newspapers. They fought Gannett bosses tenaciously, gaining a voice by forming a union, striking, and finally compelling the giant to sign a union contract. Victory!Uh… not yet. Just months later, Gannett sold the newspaper to Hearst, another massive media conglomerate. This new relationship started well, but soon turned sour when Hearst honchos abruptly refused to honor the paper's contract with the union. Then they began firing employees and jacking around with the newsroom's healthcare and retirement benefits. Adding pettiness to greed, Hearst honchos even refused to let Statesman journalists take a holiday that corporate managers get. What the hell?Bear in mind that Hearst is a phenomenally profitable, $13-billion-a-year, multi-media behemoth. It's CEO, Steven Swartz, pockets millions of dollars a year and lives in luxury. Also, Austin is a booming media market worth gazillions to Hearst! No need to be so pathetically mingy!So, the hardy members of the Austin News Guild are back doing what working people have to do – organizing and mobilizing for a little more justice. “We're no strangers to the petty tactics of corporate elites,” they say, so the guild is relaunching its grassroots campaign to battle the b******s, fight for fairness, and protect local news.

In a 2012 opinion piece bemoaning the state of the US Senate, Washington Post columnist Dana Milbank cited a “leading theory: There are no giants in the chamber today.” Among the respected members who once walked the Senate floor, admired for their expertise and with a stature that went beyond party, Milbank counted Sam Nunn (D-GA). Nunn served in the Senate for four terms beginning in 1972, at a moment when domestic politics and foreign policy were undergoing far-reaching changes. As a member and then chairman of the Senate Armed Services Committee, he had a vital impact on most of the crucial national security and defense issues of the Cold War era and the “new world order” that followed—issues that included the revitalization of the North Atlantic Treaty Organization's military capability, US-Soviet relations, national defense reorganization and reform, the Persian Gulf conflict, and nuclear arms control. In this first full account of Nunn's senatorial career, Frank Leith Jones reveals how, as a congressional leader and “shadow secretary of defense,” Nunn helped win the Cold War, constructing the foundation for the defense and foreign policies of the 1970s and 1980s that secured the United States and its allies from the Soviet threat. At a time of bitter political polarization and partisanship, Nunn's reputation remains that of a statesman with a record of bipartisanship and a dedication to US national interests above all. His career, as recounted in Sam Nunn: Statesman of the Nuclear Age (University Press of Kansas, 2020), provides both a valuable lesson in the relationships among the US government, foreign powers, and societies and a welcome reminder of the capacity of Congress, even a lone senator, to promote and enact policies that can make the country, and the world, a better and safer place. Frank Leith Jones is professor of security studies and the General C. Marshall Chair of Military Studies in the Department of National Security and Strategy at the US Army War College in Carlisle, Pennsylvania. His published work includes Blowtorch: Robert Komer, Vietnam, and American Cold War Strategy. Arya Hariharan is a lawyer in politics. She spends much of her time working on congressional investigations and addressing challenges to the rule of law. You can reach her at arya.hariharan@gmail.com or Twitter.

Episode 113 - From Stage to Stateman: Bobby Pulido's Next Chapter Episode Summary: In this heartfelt and candid episode, we sit down with Latin Grammy-winning Tejano icon Bobby Pulido, who's currently in the middle of his highly anticipated farewell tour after a groundbreaking 30-year career in music. Bobby reflects on his unexpected rise to fame—from a young man who once dreamed of becoming a lawyer to becoming one of the most recognizable and celebrated voices in Tejano music. He shares the personal and professional turning points that shaped his journey, and why now, even at the height of his success, he's stepping away from the stage. And what's next? Bobby is preparing for a new chapter—public service. While we pressed (gently and not-so-gently) for clues about a potential political run, Bobby keeps those cards close to his chest. No confirmations here, just a little speculative fun. Tune in for a conversation full of laughs, memories, and a few surprises. Whether you're a lifelong fan or just discovering Bobby's music, this episode captures the spirit of an artist who's always stayed true to himself—and now looks ready to serve in an entirely new way.

His friend the great scholar Desiderius Erasmus referred to Thomas More as “a Man for all seasons.” But which season? Or which Thomas More? Is he an advocate of conscience? A heroic defender of the Catholic faith? A saintly martyr? A fanatical zealot unwilling to listen to cool reason? An amateur inquisitor who lit the night with burning Lutherans and their books, and enjoyed little more than coming home after work for a torture session? Does every era get the Thomas More that it deserves?Thomas More was indeed a man of many twists and turns, a Tudor Odysseus. A Londoner; the grandson of a baker and son of a lawyer; a page in a noble household; an exceptional prose stylist, in Latin or English; a lawyer of exceptional diligence and skill; a guild member; a religious controversialist, able to match Martin Luther in scatology; a subtle humanist of European-wide fame; a poet; a politician; a bureaucrat; a royal advisor; a confessor of the faith; a prisoner; and a martyr. He was all those things, and more besides. With me to talk about the life and times of Thomas More is Joanne Paul, Associate Professor in Early Modern History at the University of Sussex. Her research focuses on the intellectual and cultural history of the Renaissance and Early Modern periods, written widely on Thomas More, William Shakespeare, Machiavelli and Thomas Hobbes. Her most recent book is Thomas More: A Life, which is the subject of our conversation today.For Further Investigation The web page of Joanne PaulThomas More: A LifeThe last time we talked about the Tudors on Historically ThinkingAnd the book we talked about with its author, Lucy E.C.

In its June 3, 2025 editorial, the Idaho Statesman emphasizes the critical importance of ensuring robust media access to the upcoming trial of Bryan Kohberger, accused of the 2022 murders of four University of Idaho students. The editorial argues that transparent media coverage is essential for maintaining public trust in the judicial process, particularly in high-profile cases that have garnered national attention. It underscores that the presence of journalists in the courtroom serves as a check on the legal system, providing the public with accurate and timely information.The piece also addresses concerns about the current system for reserving courtroom seats, suggesting that it may inadvertently limit media access and, by extension, public oversight. The Statesman advocates for a more equitable approach that guarantees space for credentialed journalists, ensuring that the proceedings are documented comprehensively. By facilitating full media presence, the editorial contends, the court can uphold the principles of transparency and accountability that are foundational to the justice system.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:Kohberger trial sparks media access concerns | Idaho StatesmanBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-epstein-chronicles--5003294/support.

Jonah Goldberg has realized that, if you name drop Leo Strauss enough, you're eventually going to have to explain who you're talking about. As the benevolent educator of The Remnant masses, Jonah has conspired with Steven Smith, a Straussian expert and professor of political science and philosophy at Yale University, to deliver this deep dive on the life and work of Leo Strauss. Jonah and Steven dig into the fundamentals of Strauss' work, the debate between the East Coast and West Coast Straussians, the value and potential in fusionism, and Harry Jaffa's various quirks. Plus: the flaws with the Great Man Theory and some gossip on the heavy hitting intellectuals of the 20th century. Show Notes:—Steven Smith: Reading Leo Strauss: Politics, Philosophy, Judaism—The Liberties Journal: “What is a Statesman?”—Take Steven's Yale University course on political philosophy from your couch!—Irving Kristol's 1952 review of Strauss' Persecution and the Art of Writing in Commentary Magazine The Remnant is a production of The Dispatch, a digital media company covering politics, policy, and culture from a non-partisan, conservative perspective.

George Mifflin Dallas, who served as the 11th Vice President of the United States from 1845 to 1849 under President James K. Polk, is one of the quieter figures in American history. Though the city of Dallas, Texas, may or may not be named after him, his influence was far greater in his own time than the legacy we associate with his name today. He was a man of learning, diplomacy, and political acumen, with roots that reached deep into the early fabric of American life.

In this enlightening episode of The Wandering Pilgrims, we explore the remarkable life of Dr. Matthew Thornton, a pivotal figure in American history whose diverse contributions helped shape the nation. Born in Ireland, young Matthew embarked on a treacherous journey to the American colonies at just four years old, facing adversity from the start as his family settled in Maine, only to flee to Massachusetts after a Native American attack.Thornton's resilience led him to a successful career in medicine, where he earned respect as a skilled doctor. At the age of 62, he made history by signing the Declaration of Independence, showcasing his unwavering commitment to his country. His service extended beyond medicine; he was a surgeon during King George's War and represented New Hampshire at the Continental Congress from 1776 to 1778. As President of the New Hampshire Provincial Congress, he worked tirelessly to secure independence, demonstrating his dedication to the cause.In addition to his political and medical endeavors, Thornton was an accomplished author, penning works that reflected his sharp intellect and keen sense of humor. His deep Christian faith guided his life, and he was known for his generosity and compassion towards others, always ready to offer help without expecting anything in return. Thornton's legacy is one of service, dedication, and a profound commitment to his community and country.Join us as we honor the life of Matthew Thornton, a man whose contributions and character continue to inspire.
