Former Virginia Gov. Glenn Youngkin joins Lisa Boothe to discuss the battle for the 2026 midterm elections, the affordability crisis facing American families, school choice, parents' rights and what he sees as the growing influence of socialism inside the Democratic Party. Youngkin, who won one of the country's most closely watched battleground races in Virginia in 2021, explains what Republicans need to do to win over voters in a difficult midterm environment. He argues that the GOP must acknowledge the pain Americans are feeling from inflation and higher gas prices while making a stronger case for its economic agenda. Youngkin also discusses his push to expand educational freedom and school choice through a federal tax credit that can help families pay for private school tuition, tutoring, transportation and additional educational services. He explains why he's pressuring Democratic governors to opt into the program and why he believes teachers unions remain one of the biggest obstacles to expanding parental choice. Lisa and Youngkin revisit the famous moment from the 2021 Virginia governor's race when Terry McAuliffe said he didn't believe parents should be telling schools what to teach. Youngkin explains why that moment crystallized a fundamental political divide over who should make decisions for America's children. Finally, Youngkin sounds the alarm over the ideological direction of the Democratic Party, arguing that socialists are winning its internal battle and that Republicans have an opportunity to contrast their agenda with the progressive left heading into November.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Should the president of Seattle’s teachers union keep her position? That’s the question on the minds of many local teachers and parents. Last week, parents of a student of Ibijoke Idowu began the process of pursuing a civil lawsuit against the teacher and the district, claiming she had physically harmed their child. This follows a Seattle Public Schools investigation, released in June, which concluded that Idowu “more likely than not” grabbed the student hard enough to cause bruising. Idowu was elected to lead the Seattle Education Association while she was on leave pending the results of this probe. Idowu has denied allegations of misconduct.

Bill speaks with American Federation of Teachers President, Randi Weingarten about the political fallout from Republicans' “One Big, Beautiful Bill” ahead of the November midterms, noting a Politico poll showing most Americans haven't heard of it and many who have think it mainly helps the wealthy. Weingarten says July student-loan changes eliminated most prior income-driven repayment plans, raising payments by hundreds or thousands per year for many of the 44 million borrowers, with 3.6 million defaults since Trump returned to office. Now with higher interest, and more debt collection. She promotes the coalition-led One Big Bill Campaign (onebigbill.org) to collect borrowers' stories—such as a Philly school counselor whose payment rose from $90 to $440—and take them to Congress, linking the cuts to tax breaks for the rich alongside reductions to Medicaid and SNAP. They also discuss Trump's efforts to dismantle the Department of Education, voucher expansion, and pressure on universities over DEI and antisemitism claims.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Nicki breaks down the rise of woke ideology in schools, the battle over school choice, gender policies in classrooms, and why parents began fighting back after COVID lockdowns. They also discuss declining test scores, union influence, Title IX battles, and the growing movement to restore accountability in education.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

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. Want a copy of Jonathan Butcher's book, Higher Education in America: It's Worse than You Think? The first five listeners to DM the Breaking Battlegrounds Facebook page with "Higher Education in America" will receive a copy. Make sure to include your mailing address so we know where to send it. 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.

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.

There was no classroom applause or cheers for the champion, although Bang thought he deserved it.low-key: 많은 이목을 끌지 않도록 절제하는, 요란하지 않은[3] "For kids growing up, there should be a culture of cheering for a classmate's success, but now these are things of bygone days," Bang told The Korea Herald, saying that a "new culture" has taken root.bygone: 지난, 옛날의take root: 뿌리를 내리다[4] Bang's case is just one example of how schools have come to avoid elements that could lead to complaints such as competitive sports, field trips and minor injuries in the schoolyard.

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

Well, we have been treated to another No Kings Protest, and each time this happens, we learn a little bit more about who is funding these operations. But while the man-on-the-street interviews are fun, should we take them seriously? Do they make any good points, or is this nothing more than an attempt to demoralize and destroy not only Trump but the United States as we know it?SPONSOR: Lear CapitalThe best way to invest in gold and silver is with Lear Capital.

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' […]
