A secret may be sometimes best kept by keeping the secret of its being a secret.Taylor was son of a gentleman farmer in County Durham. After being at sea for some months and in the Naval Stores Department, he became a clerk in the Colonial Office, and remained there for 48 years, during which he exercised considerable influence on the colonial policy of the British Empire. He advocated the melioration, as opposed to the abolition, of the slave trade.In 1872 he was made K.C.M.G. He wrote four tragedies — Isaac Comnenus (1827), Philip van Artevelde (1834), Edwin the Fair (1842), and St. Clement's Eve (1862); also a romantic comedy, The Virgin Widow, which he renamed A Sicilian Summer, The Eve of the Conquest and other Poems (1847). In prose he published The Statesman (1836), Notes from Life (1847), Notes from Books (1849), and an autobiography.This is a reading of a short essay by Sir Henry Taylor, "Of Secrecy".

James Henson talks with political reporter Bayliss Wagner, of The Austin American-Statesman, about her recent coverage of abortion and intraparty tension among Texas House Republicans, as well as the Statesman’s change of ownership, and covering the lege for the hometown paper.

The news of Texas covered today includes:Our Lone Star story of the day: New levels of deception on Bond debt issuance claiming “it will not raise taxes” if passed: Bond Deception – Texas Public Policy Foundation.Our Lone Star story of the day is sponsored by Allied Compliance Services providing the best service in DOT, business and personal drug and alcohol testing since 1995.Texas wins again: 21st year to be named Best State for Business by Chief Executive magazine. Note how the former powerhouses of Illinois, New York, and California, now the nation's most extreme Democrat Party machine states, remain at the bottom of the list.Dallas Fed: Growth in Texas manufacturing; outlook turns negative.A few Texas House conservatives flexed their muscle Friday and as is usually the case, the insider power crowd in Austin threw fits about it. Much credit to the Texas Tribune that most accurately described what happened and why. The Statesman went with the somewhat misleading but typical insider soap opera approach with this approach: ‘Burn it all down': Hardline conservative bloc declares war on Texas House GOP leadership. If you read the Tribune story it's as if this were a different event.Listen on the radio, or station stream, at 5pm Central. Click for our radio and streaming affiliates.www.PrattonTexas.com

Mike believes that its communication strategy has improved massively. Starmer has come into his own on the international stage, arguably moving into the space at the top of Europe while the US is playing silly buggers with foreign policy.

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.

NATO's first Secretary General, Hastings Ismay, profoundly shaped today's Alliance. Join us to discuss his legacy with his latest biographer, Lieutenant General Sir John Kiszely. Hastings (Pug) Ismay was a general who never commanded beyond lieutenant colonel, rising through the ranks as a staff officer. This brought him into contact with politicians, like Churchill, and senior military commanders such as General Eisenhower, with whom he formed an enduring friendship. After retirement from the Army, Ismay briefly became a minister before serving as NATO Secretary General, 1952-1957. His time in office saw many challenges - the Soviet invasion of Hungary, Suez, the Cyprus Crisis of 1963-64 and the death of Stalin. Steering NATO through these crises required judgement, patience and humility. His legacy is that of NATO with a strong central headquarters connecting its political and military dimensions, and organisation with a global security perspective and a Secretary General who remains the servant of the Alliance. Our guest this episode, Lieutenant General Sir John Kiszely , served in the British Army for 40 years, including in the 1982 Falklands War for which he was awarded the Military Cross, in Bosnia and Iraq. His book ‘Anatomy of a Campaign: The British Fiasco in Norway 1940' won RUSI's inaugural Duke of Wellington Medal for Military History. His latest book, ‘General Hastings ‘Pug' Ismay: Soldier, Statesman, Diplomat' was published in 2024.

Aristotle's "Politics" is full of deep insight: politics as the architectonic science, the mixed constitution, happiness as the end of the city. But, there's a group which is excluded from human virtue; namely, the natural slave. Alex Denley and Dr. Andrew Jones discuss how the "natural slave" reveals the structure of Aristotle's just city: a limited class of citizens over an unspecified amount of slaves. And, that the despotic relationship extends into the mixed constitution of the citizens. The masses believe they are ruling in a democracy, the notables believe they are ruling an oligarchy, and the one, true philosopher-statesman rules the whole; each class instrumentalizes the other. They discuss how this doesn't vilify Aristotle, or presume nefarious intentions; this is what a science of a pagan political order demands. Ultimately, it is this structure that Christianity transforms from both within and above.

Peter Courtney died this week at the age of 81. He was first elected to the Oregon House of Representatives in 1980. He moved to the Senate side in 1999 and became Senate President four years later. Courtney, who grew up in what he liked to call “West by God Virginia,”  served for 38 years in the legislature, including a  record 20 as the senate president. In an institution that he cared about deeply, he was a kind of institution himself: passionate and bombastic, often dramatic and sometimes dour. We talked to Peter Courtney many times over the last 15 years. We listen back to our conversation with him in January of 2022, soon after he announced he would not be seeking re-election.

From March 22, 2014: On March 19, the Center on the United States and Europe (CUSE) hosted NATO Secretary-General Anders Fogh Rasmussen for a Statesman's Forum address on the importance of the transatlantic alliance and how the North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO) is evolving to address new common security challenges. As the crisis in Ukraine shows that security in the Euro-Atlantic area cannot be taken for granted, the secretary-general discussed NATO's essential role in an unpredictable world. He outlined the agenda for the September NATO summit in Wales as a critical opportunity to ensure that the alliance has the military capabilities necessary to deal with the threats it now faces, to consider how NATO members can better share the collective burden of defense and to engage constructively with partners around the world.Anders Fogh Rasmussen took office as North Atlantic Treaty Organization's 12th secretary-general in August 2009. Previously, he served in numerous positions in the Danish government and opposition throughout his political career, including as prime minister of Denmark from November 2001 to April 2009.Brookings Senior Fellow and CUSE Director Fiona Hill provided introductory remarks and moderated the discussion.To receive ad-free podcasts, become a Lawfare Material Supporter at www.patreon.com/lawfare.
