This week on Breaking Battlegrounds, Sam Stone is joined by Jonathan Butcher, Scot Mussi, Lou Perez, and John Lee to discuss higher education, Arizona school choice, comedy, culture, and Canada's euthanasia controversy. The show is then turned over to Chuck Warren  who sits down with Dr. John Lee for a one on one talk on China, Iran, critical minerals, and U.S. foreign policy. The episode wraps with B's Crime Corner and a disturbing true crime case unravleing in Ohio. Jonathan Butcher, Acting Director of the Center for Education Policy and Will Skillman Senior Research Fellow in Education Policy at The Heritage Foundation, joins the show to discuss his book Higher Education in America: It's Worse than You Think. Butcher breaks down the rising cost of college, the unclear pricing behind tuition, the role of federal student loans in tuition inflation, and the ideological imbalance on many campuses. He also discusses threats facing Jewish students, the impact of campus culture on young men and women, declining birth rates, and why lawmakers need to enforce the law on college campuses. The conversation also looks at trade schools, career readiness, and why America needs to rethink the idea that every student must follow the traditional college path.

Follow Jonathan Butcher on X: @JM_Butcher Scot Mussi, President of the Arizona Free Enterprise Club, joins Sam to discuss the fight over Arizona's school choice program and a ballot initiative backed by the Washington, D.C. Teachers Union that could impact more than 100,000 students. Mussi explains why school choice matters for families, including students with special needs, and why the fight over education funding is becoming one of the biggest political battles in Arizona. He also discusses Republican enthusiasm ahead of the November midterm elections, border security, cost of living, local spending, municipal budget increases, tax burdens, and what conservatives need to do to turn voter enthusiasm into turnout. Follow Scot Mussi on X: @ScotMussi Follow Arizona Free Enterprise Club on X: @azfec Website: azfree.org Comedian, producer, and author Lou Perez joins the program to discuss a troubling medical assistance in dying case out of Canada involving a 45-year-old man with inflammatory bowel disease and mental health struggles who was assessed for euthanasia outside a Tim Hortons before dying without his family being informed. Lou and Sam discuss the ethical questions surrounding Canada's MAID system, the consequences for the doctor involved, and the documentary Better Off Dead, which examines euthanasia practices in Canada.  Follow Lou Perez on X: @LouPerez                                                                                              The second to last segment, host Chuck Warren sits down with Dr. John Lee for a wide-ranging foreign policy conversation on China, Trump's strategy, critical minerals, Iran, and America's alliances. Dr. Lee is a senior fellow at Hudson Institute, a senior fellow nonresident at the United States Studies Centre, and an adjunct professor at the University of Sydney. Lee discusses his article in The Hill, "After the Trump-G Summit, China, Not America, is on the Back Foot," and argues that the Trump administration's reindustrialization and rearming agenda has strengthened America's strategic position rather than weakened it. He explains why Xi Jinping is now operating from a less favorable position, why America's allies may need pressure to take defense more seriously, and why critical minerals have become a major national security priority after years of warning signs from Beijing. Dr. Lee also breaks down the Iran situation, arguing that a successful outcome for the United States would mean setting back Iran's nuclear ambitions and reducing its conventional military threat. He explains why China is a more rational negotiating actor than Iran, how regime security shapes Tehran's decision-making, and why the U.S.-Australia alliance remains strategically strong despite political tensions over Trump. Guest: John Lee Article: "After the Trump-G Summit, China, Not America, is on the Back Foot" in The Hill In the final segment, B's Crime Corner returns with a disturbing true crime case out of Ohio, where two parents were convicted after their 11-year-old son, who had Hirschsprung's disease, died in a hotel room after being denied medical treatment. B breaks down the case, the 15-year prison sentences, the unanswered questions, and the psychology behind parents who harm their own children.

"They light that money on fire," says DeAngelis, Research Fellow at Heritage. Mostly, they spend money on politics and only 10% on the things you think they actually do, as you'll hear.

Tudor Dixon sits down with Nicki Neily, President and Founder of Parents Defending Education, to unpack their explosive new 10-year report on where teachers union dues are really going. Spoiler: it’s not classrooms, salaries, or fixing learning loss. Discover how over one billion dollars in taxpayer-funded dues from teachers across America is being funneled into far-left political causes — fighting school choice, bankrolling radical candidates, Planned Parenthood, the Trevor Project, the Southern Poverty Law Center, and multimillion-dollar PACs. From half-a-million dollars spent on Virginia’s gubernatorial race to $1.3 million on a single Los Angeles school board contest, the numbers are staggering. Nicki reveals the peer pressure and professional retaliation teachers face if they opt out, why unions prioritize power over kids, and how this “dark money” machine is shaping ballots, protests, curriculum battles, and even anti-Semitism controversies — all while claiming it’s “for the teachers.” If you’ve ever wondered why your tax dollars are fueling political activism instead of better schools, this episode is a must-listen.

Maryland, for my sins my home state, is almost completely controlled by the teachers unions—this was proven during COVID-19, when the state had among the longest school closures in the nation. But the end of the pandemic did nothing to curb Maryland teachers unions' ambitions, which are now focused against private education, which the unions and their allies in state government hope to ideologically compel to follow the party line. Today's guest, Corey DeAngelis of the Heritage Foundation among other places, focuses on an effort by the union-backed state legislature to require private schools in the state to acquiesce to gender transitions—even schools that have sincere religious objections to gender transitions likely protected by the First Amendment. He joins us today to discuss what this effort by blue-state teachers-union-controlled legislatures can tell us about parental rights campaigns across the country.Maryland's assault on private educationTeachers Unions Extort States Unwilling to ResistInfluenceWatch Podcast #397: Teachers Unions Target TargetBREAKING: Chicago Teachers Union just sent out curriculum for public school teachers and it indoctrinates kids by calling Trump fascist.

The US economy looks great on paper: high GDP, low unemployment, and booming markets. So why does it feel like the system is broken for so many people? To unpack the disconnect between macroeconomic data and everyday financial anxiety, we're joined by Chicago Booth professor Steve Kaplan. A staunch defender of the free market, Kaplan argues that despite our collective pessimism, American capitalism is actually delivering unprecedented prosperity. Are we just looking at the data wrong, or is the market failing us? From the staggering costs of the US healthcare system to the lasting scars of the China labor shock, we debate the deepest fractures in our modern economic framework. Recorded alongside the Stigler Center's economic conference "Can Capitalism Be Popular?" the conversation covers how to actually measure an economic system, the U.S. vs. Europe debate, the opioid crisis, health care lock-in, teachers' unions, UBI, and the core tension of the whole show: if capitalism is working, why doesn't it feel that way?

In this week's episode of The Learning Curve, co-hosts Prof. Albert Cheng of the University of Arkansas and American Federation for Children's Walter Blanks speak with Dr. Keri Ingraham, Senior Fellow at the Discovery Institute. Dr. Ingraham reflects on her academic and athletic journey, including being an Academic All-American, and how it shaped her belief in discipline, opportunity, and high expectations in education. She shares that in deep blue states like Washington, Oregon, California, and New York, strong teacher union political influence has often limited K-12 reform and innovation. Despite roughly $800 billion in annual K–12 spending, she points to stagnant academic outcomes, highlighted by National Assessment of Educational Progress results, as evidence that funding alone is insufficient without meaningful school choice and accountability. She discusses persistent achievement gaps and their economic consequences, emphasizing how today's workforce increasingly rewards knowledge and skills. She also highlights the rapid expansion of school choice policies following landmark U.S. Supreme Court decisions, such as Espinoza v. Montana Department of Revenue and Carson v. Makin, and critiques testing monopolies like those tied to the College Board. Dr. Ingraham concludes by underscoring the importance of federalism and a more limited role for the Beltway in education, with states, localities, and parents leading the way on school reform efforts.

Vancouver Public Schools faces $20-30 million in budget cuts, threatening beloved music, art, and PE teachers. But CCT Editor Ken Vance argues the real culprit isn't lack of funding—it's teachers' unions that greedily leveraged McCleary money for unprecedented salary increases while knowing other programs would suffer. Washington teachers now rank second nationally in starting salaries, averaging $105,254 plus $31,770 in benefits, while test scores plummet and families flee to private schools and homeschooling. There's only one funding pie, Vance argues, and teachers are consuming a disproportionate slice. https://www.clarkcountytoday.com/opinion/opinion-cct-editor-provides-another-history-lesson-on-funding-public-schools/ #Opinion #Education #VancouverSchools #McCleary #TeachersUnion #PublicSchools #WashingtonEducation #ClarkCounty #SchoolFunding #TaxpayerMoney

The primary teacher's union is accusing the government of divide and conquer tactics in their stalled pay negotiations. The Public Service Commission has decided to extend a pay offer to about 10,000 teachers who are not bound by the NZEI collective agreement ahead of settling with unionised teachers. NZEI claims it is a deliberate and serious breach of good faith and would undermine teachers collective bargaining. It is now threatening legal action. NZEI's lead negotiator for the primary teachers collective, Liam Rutherford spoke to Lisa Owen.

The primary teachers union says it's filing urgent legal action after the government announced it's offering pay rises to teachers who are not in the union. Public Service Commissioner Sir Brian Roche spoke to Ingrid Hipkiss.

Anthony Quinn, President of the Teachers Union of Ireland

One in five schools have been forced to drop a subject due to teachers' retention and recruitment issues, according to a survey carried out by the Teachers Union of Ireland.Three-quarters of the schools surveyed had advertised positions in the previous six months for which no teacher applied. A further 60% have unfilled vacancies…Have you or your children been affected by the teacher's shortage?Joining guest host Anna Daly to discuss is Paul Cuddihy, teacher of history and geography at Kilkenny College, primary school Principal Simon Lewis and more.

That teachers' unions are more interested in radical leftist political power than student achievement is increasingly recognized, and today's guest brings two new pieces of evidence to pile on the scales. First, AFT president Randi Weingarten, the under-recognized villain of the COVID-19 pandemic, announced to a videoconference of radical-left activists that she was leveraging teachers' pensions against Target to get the company to denounce immigration enforcement. Then, we dive deeply into Union del Barrio, a radical anti-immigration-enforcement group that may take control of Los Angeles's teachers union.

Help Persecuted Christians TODAY: https://csi-usa.org/ Christian Solidarity International On today's Quick Start podcast: NEWS: A massive avalanche buries backcountry skiers in California's Sierra Nevada, leaving 10 missing as rescuers battle whiteout conditions. Plus, New York City's socialist promises meet a $5.4 billion deficit — and middle-class taxpayers may foot the bill. FOCUS STORY: In a stunning move, San Francisco's teachers union urged parents not to homeschool during a strike — fearing students might thrive without the system.

Dr. Sasa joins us with firsthand accounts of the “systematic” persecution of Christians that much of the world is ignoring — and why action matters now. LAST THING: 2 Timothy 3:12 — A reminder that those who seek to live a godly life in Christ Jesus will face persecution — but they are not alone. PRAY WITH US!

Tish Hyman walks into a women's locker room at a LA Gold's Gym and sees naked male bodies. She tries to ignore it, but it keeps happening for months. When management does nothing, she reaches a breaking point and explodes in an exasperated rant captured on a viral video. But the mainstream media has a problem: Tish is a proud black gay woman and a Grammy nominated songwriter. The person she confronted was Alexis Black (formerly Kyle Grant Freeman), who is white and appeared male – and was reportedly “sentenced to one year in an Ohio prison in 2022 after pleading guilty to savagely beating his then-wife and breaking her jaw” (NY Post). Now the MSM is tied up in pretzels. Can't call her racist. Can't call her homophobic. Can't call her sexist. So instead, the media dismisses 2025's top story about the erosion of women's rights, leaving the real journalism to TMZ. Education activist Corey DeAngelis joins to discuss the Trump admin's dismantling of the Department Of Education, and a whistleblower video of teachers union members claiming “biology is a spectrum.” Tish Hyman (AKA Latisha Tawana Hyman) is a Grammy-nominated songwriter and artist who has has collaborated with Alicia Keys, Kanye West, Ty Dolla $ign, H.E.R., and many others.
