Podcast appearances and mentions of Tom Gallagher

Episode 355 of RevolutionZ has as guest DSA activist and former Massachusetts state representative Tom Gallagher to discuss how leftists too often "do the billionaires' work for them" by attacking allies over ideological purity.When Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez and Bernie Sanders face vicious criticism from fellow progressives with headlines like "AOC is a genocidal con artist" or "Bernie is a ghoulish Zionist," something has gone terribly wrong with movement politics. Gallagher dissects this suicidal tendency with the perspective of someone who's witnessed decades of progressive movements building and fracturing.He describes how the Sanders campaigns temporarily broke through this cycle by demonstrating mass support for progressive policies and bringing people together around concrete goals. He contrasts this practical engagement with the sectarian tendencies that flourish especially in online spaces, where discourse lacks nuance and rewards extremism.The episode examine the challenges facing organizations like the Democratic Socialists of America as they navigate questions of electoral strategy, ideological consistency, and practical governance. The example of Zohran Mamdani's mayoral campaign in New York serves as a test case. How can a socialist be an effective mayor while maintaining progressive principles.Drawing on historical examples from Milwaukee's "sewer socialists" to the fragmentation of previous left movements, this discussion offers essential insights for anyone committed to building effective progressive power. Rather than treating disagreement as betrayal, Gallagher advocates recognizing common ground and directing our energy toward the actual systems of power and inequality that progressive movements exist to challenge.Support the show

Comunistul care a dus România în NATO: Ion Iliescu (DW) - VIDEO Cum i-a trimis Ion Iliescu pe mineri să „reocupe” Piața Universității și le-a mulțumit pentru „înalta disciplină civică” după măcelul din 13-15 iunie (HotNews) - Justiția îl mai scapă o dată pe Ion Iliescu: ceremoniile funerare naționale echivalează cu relativizarea răului făcut (SpotMedia) - George Simion, singurul lider politic fără nici o reacție la moartea lui Ion Iliescu. Liderul extremist nu a avut nici o postare în 12 ore (G4Media) - Dacă un bunic sau un părinte v-a lăsat moştenire un apartament de 60.000 euro, un hotel, un cont cu câteva milioane de euro, să ştiţi că asta i se datorează lui Iliescu: Cum a ajuns ca un comunist să aibă cea mai mare contribuţie la împroprietărirea românilor pe gratis (apartamente, acţiuni), la formarea capitalului privat şi la dezvoltarea Bursei (Ziarul Financiar) Comunistul care a dus România în NATO: Ion Iliescu (DW) Ion Iliescu, primul președinte postcomunist al României și singurul care a avut trei mandate, a încetat ieri din viaţă la vârsta de 95 de ani. Fusese internat cu două luni în urmă suferind de cancer pulmonar. În timpul ultimei sale președinții 2000-2004, România a fost primită în NATO și a încheiat negocierile de aderare la Uniunea Europeană. Dar orientarea lui nu a fost de la început pro-occidentală, așa că s-a grăbit imediat după instalarea la putere să semneze un tratat bilateral cu URSS, cu doar câteva luni înainte de căderea Uniunii Sovietice, tratat care bloca pentru 15 ani aderarea României la alte alianțe politico-militare. Intrarea pe orbita Moscovei a avut loc, însă, chiar în perioada tulbure a căderii puterii comuniste, în zilele fierbinți dinaintea condamnării lui Nicolae Ceaușescu: atunci Ion Iliescu a cerut sprijin militar de la Moscova, potrivit unor documente descoperite 20 de ani mai târziu. A fost ultimul președinte, dacă nu chiar ultimul politician autohton bine ancorat ideologic în lumea războiului rece, probabil cel din urmă care a vrut să rămână „sărac și cinstit” și singurul acuzat de crime împotriva umanității pe care sistemul juridic a vrut să-l protejeze până la capăt.  Cum i-a trimis Ion Iliescu pe mineri să „reocupe” Piața Universității și le-a mulțumit pentru „înalta disciplină civică” după măcelul din 13-15 iunie (HotNews.ro) S-a intamplat la mai puțin de o lună de la primele alegeri de după Revoluție, la care Ion Iliescu fusese ales cu 85%. În dimineața zilei de 13 iunie 1990, poliția intervine brutal și evacuează manifestanții rămași în Piața Universității. Iliescu îi numise golani pe protestatari. În jurul prânzului muncitorii de la IMGB sunt și ei implicați în operațiunea Poliției. Balconul Pieței se redeschide. În dimineata zilei de 14 iunie, aproape 10.000 de mineri din Valea Jiului ajung la București, înarmați cu bâte, lanțuri și topoare. Minerii ajung în Piața Victoriei de unde Ion Iliescu îi trimite către Piața Universității, cu ordinul să o „reocupe”. Minerii îi bat sălbatic pe toți cei care le ies în cale, devastează Universitatea și Facultatea de Arhitectură, precum și sediile partidelor și redacțiile ziarelor. Poliția nu intervine, dimpotrivă participă alături de mineri la violențe. Potrivit datelor oficiale, șase persoane au murit, peste 1.000 au fost rănite și sute de persoane au fost arestate în acele zile. Cu toate acestea, asociațiile victimelor mineriadelor susțin că numărul persoanelor decedate s-ar ridică la peste 100 de persoane. Justiția îl mai scapă o dată pe Ion Iliescu: ceremoniile funerare naționale echivalează cu relativizarea răului făcut (SpotMedia) Moartea lui Ion Iliescu lasă României o moștenire care continuă toxicitatea uzurpărilor din 1989, când pactul de protecție reciprocă făcut cu oameni din fosta Securitate și din fosta nomenclatură a obligat țară la decenii de deturnări instituționale, sărăcie, polarizare și o hemoragie de resurse umane peste granițe, , comentează jurnalista SpotMedia Magda Grădinaru. Funeraliile de stat pentru Ion Iliescu arată eșecul moral al României politice din ultimii 35 de ani, consideră ea. Tergiversările din justiție, intenționate o bună parte din drum, impunitatea pe care a transmis-o justiția, cu dosarele Revoluției și Mineriadei, au devenit, pe măsură ce timpul dreptății s-a scurs, un eșec moral. Mie Ion Iliescu mi-a luat 10 ani din viață (Republica) Dacă România este astăzi cum este, asta e și datorită, și din cauza lui Ion Iliescu, scrie la rîndul său jurnalistul Florin Negruțiu. Co-fondatorul Republica și-i amintește pe unii bucureșteni fanatici ai lui Ion Iliescu, național-comuniști demni predecesori ai georgiștilor de azi, care le pupau mâinile minerilor care tocmai despicaseră țestele golanilor din Piața Universității. Sau care maimuțăreau partidele istorice și pe Coposu, care făcuse pușcărie politică.  „Nu ne vindem țara!” strigau din toți bojocii românii în 1990. Din patriotism, le-am dat țara pe tavă securiștilor și comuniștilor strâns uniți în jurul lui Ion Iliescu. Împreună au făcut „democrația originală” sau „capitalismul de cumetrie”, Sistemul corupt care dăinuie și azi. Adio lui Ion Iliescu: Arhitectul viclean al democrației Frankenstein din România” (Contributors) Un comunist neîmpăcat și un președinte care a sabotat democrația, așa arată Ion Iliescu în prespectiva istoricului britanic Tom Gallagher, un cunoscător de talie al României și al evoluțiilor din ultimii 50 de ani din societatea și politica noastră. Fiind un cameleon politic desăvârșit și un intrigant împătimit, este puțin probabil ca moartea lui Ion Iliescu să provoace o revărsare masivă de durere națională. Cele mai puternice rezerve vor fi exprimate de către cei care cunosc bine modul în care el a sabotat șansa României de a se integra în Occidentul democratic într-o manieră comparabilă cu cea a Poloniei sau a țărilor baltice. Ultranaționaliștii din noul val, cum sunt cei din AUR, împreună cu suveraniștii pentru care Călin Georgescu este un paravan convenabil, vor rămâne probabil reținuți sau chiar critici față de omul care a ordonat execuția Conducătorului ce adusese România pe culmile zelului național-comunist. Însă tot datorită manipulării neobosite a lui Iliescu a fost creat, în anii '90, un sistem politic cu structuri de putere, mentalități, peisaj mediatic și intelectual din care dușmanii libertății profită enorm și astăzi. George Simion, singurul lider politic fără nici o reacție la moartea lui Ion Iliescu. Liderul extremist nu a avut nici o postare în 12 ore (G4Media) George Simion, președintele partidului extremist AUR, e singurul lider al unui partid al majorității etnice care nu a avut nici o reacție la moartea lui Ion Iliescu în 12 ore de la decesul fostului președinte. Simion în mod normal postează zilnic în ritm alert. Marți, după moartea lui Ion Iliescu, liderii PSD, PNL, USR, președintele Nicușor Dan și foștii președinți ai României au avut mesaje publice prin care s-au poziționat față de primul președinte post-Revoluție. Nici partidul AUR nu a avut vreo comunicare oficială legată de fostul președinte, mort la 95 de ani, inculpat în cele două dosare majore soldate cu mii de morți și răniți – dosarul Revoluției din 1989 și dosarul Mineriadei din iunie 1990. G4Media reamintește că mai mulți lideri ai partidului extremist AUR au avut constant ieșiri publice în care au lăudat regimul comunist și epoca dictatorului Ceaușescu, făcând apel la electoratul nostalgic. Dacă un bunic sau un părinte v-a lăsat moştenire un apartament de 60.000 euro, un hotel, un cont cu câteva milioane de euro, să ştiţi că asta i se datorează lui Iliescu: Cum a ajuns ca un comunist să aibă cea mai mare contribuţie la împroprietărirea românilor pe gratis (apartamente, acţiuni), la formarea capitalului privat şi la dezvoltarea Bursei (Ziarul Financiar) Istoria noastră consemnează că Ion Iliescu (a fost singurul preşedinte pregătit să fie preşedinte, pentru că ceilalţi au ajuns preşedinţi printr-o conjunctură, iar ulterior s-au calificat la locul de muncă). Istoria ar trebui să mai consemneze că el, un comunist, cu şcoala de la Moscova, un comunist cu faţă umană, un socialist, un adept al perestroikăi lui Gorbaciov, un neocomunist, a fost cel mai mare preşedinte capitalist pe care l-a avut România. Ion Iliescu, un om de stânga, sărac dar cinstit, a fost omul, preşedintele care a avut cea mai mare contribuţie la împroprietărirea românilor după căderea comunismului, care, sub semnătura lui, a creat capitalismul din România, care a susţinut transformarea economiei.

In this episode, we hear from Tom Gallagher, CEO of Diversified Automation and a former Penn State classmate. Who'd have thought we'd reconnect all these years later via a podcast? Listen for Tom's real-world insights and career advice shaped by his global business experience.  Tom recently stepped into the role of CEO at Diversified Automation following its acquisition by Leadec, a German powerhouse in the automotive and manufacturing sectors. Their newfound, shared vision leverages Leadec's international scale to develop opportunities for innovative and advanced automation in manufacturing and package handling. The companies have worked with Mercedes-Benz, Ford, Chevy, Amazon, DHL, FedEx, UPS, and more.  Tom regrets not having learned German, though he couldn't have predicted the country's influence on his career at the outset. He explains how government-mandated work safety and life balance requirements mean German citizens can only work so many hours a day. During one visit, he and his associates were not allowed back in the building after an evening meal!  His global experience yielded other surprising customs:  When traveling for business internationally, your hosts may expect you to dine and socialize outside the office.    In Germany, people like to walk for fresh air and exercise before and after dinner. His colleagues often pick a restaurant 15 to 20 minutes away to enjoy the time together.  Breakfasts can vary widely worldwide! Some European breakfasts feature an array of meats and cheeses, completely unlike typical American fare. Singapore's charming "Toast" shops offer avocado toast and matcha tea, showcasing the city-state's unique blend of Eastern and Western influences.  Like many in global business, Tom grappled with common concerns: How do you pick the right partners in unfamiliar territories? How can you anticipate trade limitations varying wildly from country to country? He recounts instances where equipment from China was barred entry into Korea and Vietnam, causing unexpected delays. In every case, a good and knowledgeable partner will help to avoid these issues.  Similarly, Tom's experiences underscore the value of expertise in translation, interpreting, and communication across language barriers. He found bilingual professionals with relevant industry knowledge invaluable for technical discussions and high-stakes negotiations. Their nuanced understanding of language and subject matter far outperformed general translators or AI solutions, especially in technically complex fields.  His final, best advice:  “If you have the opportunity to do international work, do not hesitate to say ‘YES!'” You will learn so much through travel, the interactions with local people, the experience of seeing how people live, and exposure to different cultures. Don't worry about failing,” he adds. “You may. That's OK. You will learn from it.”  Links:   Website: https://diversified-automation.com/  https://usa.leadec-services.com/  LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/tom-gallagher-5b52934/    Connect with Wendy - https://www.linkedin.com/in/wendypease/  Music: Fiddle-De-Dee by Shane Ivers - https://www.silvermansound.com

Today I talked to Tom Gallagher about his new book Europe's Leadership Famine: Portraits of Defiance and Decay 1950-2022 (Scotview, 2023). Representative democracy endured in Europe because its political leaders' deviousness and self-advancement were balanced by altruism, fortitude and civic virtue. However, in this century, the reputation and calibre of politicians has slumped in country after country, as fads, image, process, triviality and spin are promoted over experience, prudence and long-term outcomes. National leadership roles are increasingly filled by inexperienced careerists, who are disconnected from the people on whose behalf they are supposed to rule. How can Europe remain mostly free and adequately governed, if this leadership famine drags on?

This week's Ours to protect shines a light on the efforts being made by the Tipperary Barn Owl Project to address the increase in deaths of Barn Owls along a particular stretch of motorway. Our Reporter Alison Hyland travelled to Thurles to meet Tom Gallagher from the Tipperary Barn Owl Project to see what easures are being taken.

While the number of Barn owls in Ireland is on the decline, Tipperary has actually bucked the trend and has seen an increase in numbers with Tipperary now home to almost 25% of Ireland's entire Barn Owl population. This achievement can be traced back to a Primary school project in Ballycahill in the early 90's. Our reporter Alison Hyland went to speak to Tom Gallagher from the Tipp Barn Owl Project to find out more....

Dear Curt   Thanks again for taking the time to speak to me by phone a couple weeks ago.  You gave me a lot of insight as to how the system works and that was very helpful.  I am still perplexed about whether or not the state has constitutional authority over exotic animals vs. native wild animals but maybe we can talk that one through some time when you have a few minutes to chat.   When I told Roy Harrell that you suggested I meet with Commissioner Meehan, he set it up and we met last week.  Remembering your advice about him being a hunter I tried to keep focused on the exotic pet problem and that was effective.  He seems genuinely concerned and took the initiative to get Col. Julie Jones from FWC on a conference call to discuss my potential service on the Captive Wildlife Committee.   I had written Captain Linda Harrison and Ken Haddad and had been told that the people from 1994 had all agreed to reconvene the group and I would not be needed.  After speaking with Commissioner Meehan, Col. Jones said she would be mailing me an invitation this upcoming week but that she was inviting a lot of people who would then be screened by a facilitator for final selection.  I sent the attached letter at the suggestion of Commissioner Meehan that I fully detail why I should be selected.  It is long and self serving, but given the credentials of the people on the committee in 1994 (9 out of 10 made their living off exotic animal use) I should have a chance at serving if it truly is the purpose of the committee to look at the rules objectively.   Thought you might want to know that David referred to you as “the voice of reason”.  He asked Gloria Johnson to call me and we are playing phone tag, but I hope to speak with her soon.  Thanks again for pointing me in the right direction.   For the cats, Carole Baskin, Founder  (813) 493-4564 best way to reach me   S.

On this episode of the Hospitality Leaders podcast, I'm joined by Tom Gallagher, General Manager at Columbus Country Club. We discuss the ways Tom's style of communication strengthens his team. Contrary to much of the hospitality industry, Columbus Country Club became a haven of sorts for guests during the Covid-19 pandemic. This was due largely to the commitment shown by Tom's team to enhance their guests' experience. Tom has cultivated a work environment where his team is passionate about doing their job well and feel empowered by management to achieve success. Tom has accomplished this through his constant, open, and often informal style of communication. Tom treats his staff almost like his guests, asking about their kids' soccer games and remembering their birthdays. It's created an environment of trust, where his team is comfortable communicating with him openly. That trust goes both ways. When his team is open about their concerns and their needs, Tom is comfortable trusting them to use the tools he's given them to work diligently to the best of their ability. Tom shares with me how this method of communication has built an outstanding company culture — one from which everyone benefits.

The Brexit Bounce continues, and predictions that the sky would fall in, everything would run short, and we wouldn't even get our medicine have tumbled one after the other. The fate of the car industry after Brexit was one of the most commonly deployed tropes. And so, when Nissan made its announcement last week that it was investing £1 billion in Sunderland in a new electric car development, there was much rejoicing – except amongst the most embittered Remainers. To discuss how Brexit's going, we invited esteemed economist and former banking guru Dr. Gerard Lyons aboard Sputnik. Portugal, like Spain and Greece, was a dictatorship until the middle of the 1970s. All three dictatorships had similarities and differences. In Greece, it was a military junta; in Spain, El Caudillo General Franco, the flamboyant fascist whose thousands of graves are still being uncovered; and then there was the forgotten man, the Portuguese dictator Salazar. Antonio Salazar ruled Portugal from 1932 to 1968, when he was succeeded by his protege Marcelo Caetano. The whole show was overthrown in the Portuguese carnation revolution of 1974. There's a whole generation of people who've never heard of Salazar and so, 51 years after his death, author of new book ‘Salazar: The Dictator Who Refused to Die' Tom Gallagher, emeritus professor of politics at Bradford University, is more than timely in boarding Sputnik.

This week's Open Mic guest is Tom Gallagher, CEO of Dairy Management Incorporated. Few commodity groups in the nation have seen greater challenges than dairy farmers over the past several years. The COVID pandemic, higher feed costs, consolidation in the processing industry and drought are just a few of the challenges producers have endured. Yet, prices have stabilized and consumers continue to seek dairy products. Tom Gallagher says the industry is adapting to marketing concepts that reach younger consumers and sharing the dairy message of sustainability to an information thirsty consumer.

What have Barn Owls, Ballycahill, a group of school children, the Battle of the Boyne and a petro-chemical company all got in common? Find out in episode three of the podcast. On a beautiful June evening I joined former teacher,Tom Gallagher and other members of the Tipperary branch of 'Birdwatch Ireland' as they ringed Barn Owl chicks in north Tipperary. Tom is a great character and shares his great knowledge about these iconic birds who are under threat in the modern age. He also discusses his love of his life teaching and why it is important to get children outdoors as much as possible.

This week's guest on Open Mic is Tom Gallagher, CEO of Dairy Management Incorporated. Headlines from the dairy industry would suggest a sector under siege with a loss of fluid milk processors and dairy farmers. Gallagher says there are positives to discuss in consumer demand, but the industry needs a paradigm shift to meet a health-conscious consumer's changing lifestyle. He outlines the group's 2030 plan, speaks to the challenge the checkoff program faces from animal rights activists and more.

While the dairy industry has seen improved financial stability this year, Tom Gallagher CEO of Dairy Management Incorporated says the combination of larger global supplies and unstable economies makes the 2015 dairy outlook more challenging. Domestically, Gallagher says DMI has signed seven different partnerships to boost fluid milk consumption to a health and wellness minded consumer base. The effort will see an investment of over half a billion dollars in new packaging and new products to grow market share at home and with consumers around the world.Jeff NalleyTom Gallagher, CEO of Dairy Management Inc.
