SO I POSTED SOMETHING ON X ABOUT BRITTANY PETTERSON TAKING HER BABY TO CONGRESS To say that the responses were less than family friendly was an understatement. Far too many of you showed NO sympathy for a new mom working in Congress, some of you said women of childbearing age should NOT be in Congress, or told your own story of having to go back to work so she should suck it up. It was disheartening to me. I will completely concede that her photo with her baby was a political stunt, but that doesn't change the underlying issue. I thought people on the right, which is probably most of my X feed, were about family values? I thought they were concerned that the country was being run by childless cat ladies, as JD Vance pointed out. I've got Hadley Heath Manning from the Steamboat Institute on today as she reached out after seeing the thread and wants to make the case that the Republican party should LEAD on making it easier for new moms to serve, because they've got a reason more than a childless cat lady to worry about the country they are leaving our children. She joins me at 1pm.

On Tuesday evening at Princeton University, Josh Hammer and libertarian comedian Dave Smith engaged in a Steamboat Institute-sponsored debate on whether the U.S.-Israel alliance serves America's strategic interests. The discussion explored whether Israel's policies benefit or undermine the U.S., as well as Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's vision for the country's future.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

WHAT DO YOU WANT TO SEE IN TRUMP'S NEXT TERM? The Steamboat Institute's Hadley Heath Manning joins me to talk about this column about her wishes for economic policy in Trump's next term.

Host Karl Honegger, member of The Steamboat Institute's Emerging Leaders Council Alumni Board, kicks off season 2 of Liberty Chats speaking with Writer and Director, Jimmy Morrison, about Grid Down, Power Up, a documentary that brings to light the urgency to save the U.S.power grid, starring Dennis Quaid. Jimmy created the motion graphics for the film.  Grid failure is a real and imminent threat, a devastatingly deadly occurrence leading to life-threatening shortages of heat, food, and water. If protective measures are not taken, we will experience catastrophic failures leaving citizens in states of starvation, death, destruction, and darkness for months. Reports released from Texas' 3-day “snowmageddon” indicate a minimum death toll of 246, with some estimates climbing as high as 702. An outage of 1-2 years would lead to 10,000,000+ deaths. One thing is evident: the clock is ticking, and if nothing changes, the power may go out for good… Learn more about the Grid Down, Power Up at: https://griddownpowerup.com/#aboutSubscribe to The Steamboat Institute Newsletter: https://www.steamboatinstitute.org/update/sign-up-for-newsletter-updates/

AN IMMIGRATION DEBATE IS HITTING THE ROAD The Steamboat Institute's Campus Liberty Tour is back and this year, it's about immigration. The Steamboat Institute, in cooperation with the Benson Center for the Study of Western Civilization at the University of Colorado Boulder, has announced that the second event on the 2023 Campus Liberty Tour will be a debate on the resolution, “Illegal crossings of the U.S.-Mexico border are increasing at record levels; the U.S. government must secure the border immediately.” The debate will be held April 13 at Chancellor's Hall on the CU Boulder campus, and will feature opening remarks by Chancellor Philip DiStefano. Julio Rosas and Michael Anton will argue the affirmative on the resolution, while Benjamin Waddell, Ph.D, and Jose Antonio Vargas will argue the negative. The debate will be moderated by Steamboat Institute Blankley Fellow Hadley Heath Manning, Vice President for Policy at the Independent Women's Forum.
