Is your child's education under siege? Brace yourself as Lieutenant Colonel Matt Crouch and I pull back the curtain on the left's strategic attack on our culture and our children. We bring to light how empowering parents is the cornerstone in preserving childhood innocence and safeguarding the foundational values of our society. Join us as we navigate the complexities of school choice, an essential tool in giving parents control over their children's education. We expose the left's unnerving scheme to capture the minds of the young, and its impact on National Assessment for Education scores. As we delve deeper into the unsettling issues in Illinois, we uncover the state's ban against book bans and its glaring refusal to address explicit content in libraries. But fear not, we are here to guide you on how to take action to support school choice and shield your children from these menacing influences. Amidst the rising tide of cancel culture and the woke mob, we encourage you to stand firm for truth and tap into resources from Heritage Action to fight for your values. Let's reclaim our children's education and preserve the America we know and love for future generations.Matt CrouchState DirectorHeritage Action for AmericaCell: 202-329-0329 matthew.crouch@heritageaction.com heritageaction.comHeritage FoundationI will be providing more information from the Heritage Foundation in our upcoming Newsletter!

William "Bill" Sterbinsky, Esq., is a dedicated advocate for veterans and a passionate legal professional. Hailing from the sunshine state of Florida, Bill's journey into a life of service began at the age of 18 when he enlisted in the United States Marine Corps. Over the course of four years, from 2003 to 2007, he demonstrated unwavering commitment and bravery, serving as a Security Forces Marine and being deployed to Iraq with 3rd Battalion, 4th Marines, Weapons Company. Bill's ten-month combat experience in the Al Qaim Province, north of the Euphrates River, marked a pivotal chapter in his life. Following his honorable discharge, Bill pursued a degree in history at the University of South Florida, where he discovered not only his passion for all things military but also the challenges veterans face within the VA system. This eye-opening experience motivated Bill to make a difference. He embarked on a legal career, specializing in VA claims, and soon found himself at the Twelfth Judicial Circuit prosecutor's office, where he played a key role in establishing a Veteran's Treatment Court, providing veterans with a fresh start in the judicial system. Outside of the courtroom, Bill co-founded SRQ VETS, a local nonprofit dedicated to helping veterans in need. The organization, driven by Bill's commitment to "take care of our own," continues to positively impact the lives of veterans in the community. Today, as the leader of Veterans Affairs Law, P.A., Bill, along with his experienced team, provides legal representation to veterans nationwide, helping them navigate the complexities of the VA claims process and supporting their rights and benefits. Bill Sterbinsky's life and work exemplify unwavering dedication to veterans and a deep commitment to making a positive impact on their lives, both within and beyond the legal realm. His journey continues to inspire and uplift those he serves. --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/wakeupwithpattikatter/message Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/wakeupwithpattikatter/support

Brett Kuehn is a sports and human performance enthusiast, athlete, and mentor to Team VertiMax. He is a USMC veteran and business development professional at VertiMax. Brett's passion is to help others achieve their goals whether they are an athlete looking to improve their speed, agility, and verticals; a coach looking to help their athletes gain an edge, or a sports performance owner or trainer seeking new ways to increase their business.    Brett and Al discuss why it's beneficial to get your child to participate in multiple different sports. Sometimes children need variety and to also explore what they do or don't like. There's so many great sports out there, so don't limit them to just one thing.    Key Takeaways: [1:10] What sports should kids play?  [3:05] Children can get burnt out playing only one sport. [4:30] Playing multiple sports helps reduce injuries.  [6:15] When you play multiple sports, you also keep your options open.  [7:15] As you get older, around highschool, then it makes sense to focus on one sport.  [10:25] Sometimes your kid can be great at the technicalities of the sport, but not be very athletic.  [10:55] Sports don't have to be so competitive. It's also about having fun and trying new things.    VertiMax VertiMax on Facebook VertiMax on Instagram VertiMax on YouTube VertiMax on LinkedIn VertiMax Certification Education   Tweetables: “Kids are built for variety. They need different things and different coaches."   "My kid ended up doing a sport that I had known nothing about. Give your kid a chance and try other sports."

This week we have a returning guest Marc Arrington on the show to talk about a topic that has been in the news a lot over the past few years. I wanted to know more about why China would want Taiwan or feel entitled to take it. I Knew from the last recording that Marc wrote his thesis on this very topic, so I invited him back to discuss it. While in graduate school, he wrote an honors thesis focusing on the intellectual history of influential Chinese leaders with a heavy emphasis on the interpretation of the Chinese grand strategies of Clausewitz's writings (or vice versa). I learned a lot and really enjoyed this recording.

America is going through some dark days right now -- true. But America has never just been a plot of land; it's always been something more. It's always been a spirit -- and a spirit can't be killed. Perhaps it's time to focus more on selling the dream of America, and less on talking up the doom. Even with all the threats to freedoms, there is much to admire and love about this country. If someone were to ask you, 'what's so great about America, anyway?' -- would you have an answer at the ready? You should be able to rattle off 10, 20, 30 or more things without even thinking. If you can't, then perhaps it's time to refocus and think less on the doom and more on the dream. Major Scott Huesing, USMC retired, agrees, and his endeavor, Save the Brave, advances just that notion -- despite the fact it's a campaign aimed at drawing awareness to veterans' suicides.

On April 30, 1975, the South Vietnamese capital of Saigon fell to the North Vietnamese Army, effectively ending the Vietnam War. In the days before, U.S. forces evacuated thousands of Americans and South Vietnamese. However, not everyone who wanted to escape, could. With South Vietnam now under communist control, life for those left behind became a completely new and challenging world, one that would eventually lead many to escape by any means necessary. On today's episode I welcome back Retired Marine Corps fighter pilot, LtCol “Charlie” Dinh for Part 2, to discuss his life As a Vietnamese refugee in the US. We talk about his combat experience as a Marine, some great lessons on selfless leadership, and then an absolutely amazing story on his full recovery from being paralyzed, and how self-pity will get you nowhere, but having a badass wife can elevate you in ways you never imagined. I am your host, SUSAN, and this is the Ready Room Podcast.

Today, Justin speaks with John Crawley. John grew up in the United States in an Irish immigrant family, and after returning to Ireland for several years he became committed to the cause of Irish independence, vowing to return to join the IRA. After a stint in the USMC as a recon Marine, he brought his combat training back with the intent to fight back against British occupying forces in Northern Ireland. John spent years in an active service unit before coming back to the US again to purchase arms and ammunition for the cause. Upon his return to Ireland, he and his shipmates were betrayed by an informant and arrested, and he spent 10 years in prison. On the podcast, John discusses his life and struggles with the Irish Republican army.Download a free sample ofJohn's book, The Yank, here: https://theyank.getresponsepages.com/Or purchase a copy here: https://amzn.to/46wKhyQConnect with Spycraft 101:Check out Justin's latest release, Covert Arms, here.spycraft101.comIG: @spycraft101Shop: spycraft-101.myshopify.comPatreon: Spycraft 101Find Justin's first book, Spyshots: Volume One, here.Download the free eBook, The Clandestine Operative's Sidearm of Choice, here.History Nerds UnitedLet's make history fun again!
