The Heartland Institute's Donald Kendal, Jim Lakely, and Chris Talgo present episode 452 of the In The Tank Podcast. In the hours after our show ended last week, the verdicts began rolling in for former President Donald Trump's "hush money" case - 34 convictions. We are truly in unprecedented territory. What does this mean for Trump? What does this mean for the election? And most importantly, what does this mean for America? Also, a new report was released that shines even more light on the Covid lab leak theory and the role the United States played in funding that research.

Two employees of former President Trump moved boxes of papers at Mar-a-Lago just a day before the Department of Justice went to the Florida resort to collect classified documents, according to The Washington Post. The newspaper also reports that investigators have evidence that Trump kept the classified documents in a visible place in his office and would show them to visitors. Former Assistant U.S. Attorney Elie Honig tells Anderson Cooper the key things prosecutors have to prove is “knowledge and intent” that the former President knew what he was doing with the documents.

Topping the political news this week: the Governor delivers a populist State of the State message, with Democrats in the Legislature cheering repeatedly and Republican members sitting on their hands – even to the point of not cheering a proposal to help young children, or throwing shade at Ohio and Indiana. Mark and Jeff analyze the Governor's address, and talk legislative priorities with the first woman to serve as Senate Majority Leader, Grand Rapids Senator Winnie Brinks. Also this week: in what's becoming our weekly Republicans in Trouble segment, Macomb Prosecutor Pete Lucido has done it again – this time quoting the GOAT of insurrectionists, Gen. Robert E. Lee, and being targeted in another lawsuit alleging official misconduct. And there's a lot happening in both the state and national Republican Party leadership that pits the ultra-MAGAs against less extreme MAGAs. Senate Majority Leader Winnie Brinks has the historic distinction of being the first woman to ever hold this position in the Michigan Senate, as well as being the first woman to represent Grand Rapids in the Michigan Senate in more than 100 years. Her legislative focus has been on clean drinking water in Michigan and has worked tirelessly on efforts to reduce the prevalence of toxic PFAS chemicals in it. Her other policy passions have included improving equity in maternal health care, reproductive rights, reducing prescription drug costs, and helping uplift local communities and organizations. Before being elected to the state House (where she served two terms) Brinks was a caseworker at The Source, helping businesses and nonprofits improve workplaces and retain employees. She also worked as the director of a community-based corrections agency and as a school paraprofessional. She is a graduate of Calvin College, earning a bachelor's degree in Spanish with a concentration in sociology.

Here's what it is and why they want it. Washington Post - Trump backers flood election offices with requests as 2022 vote nearsYou're listening to the American Democracy Minute, keeping YOUR government by and for the people.Election-denier activists are trying to obtain the “Cast Vote Record” report from vote tabulating machines around the country in a nationwide effort to prove the existence of wide-spread voter fraud.  The nonprofit democracy news service VoteBeat reported last week that nearly identical requests are being made around the country, pushed by high profile election deniers like MyPillow CEO Mike Lindell.  Lindell and other conspiracy theorists are apparently providing “cut and paste” request language for supporters to request the information from their local election officials.  If the data is provided, the group intends to centrally analyze it, despite no evidence of widespread fraud in the 2020 election.The Cast Vote Record is a data file which vote tabulating machines like that of Dominion Voting Systems record.  While its format varies by type of machine, it records the raw data of the circles filled in, and sometimes records an image of the ballot.   But there is no information about the voter or the voter's identity, and it captures only machine-counted ballots, not those counted by hand. Votebeat reports that some election offices have received dozens of these requests, including 90 requests in Maricopa County, Arizona alone, each one consuming staff time to process.   Rules vary by state, with some states allowing unofficial access to the files, and some not allowing any public access, resulting in lawsuits demanding that access.To learn more find a link to the VoteBeat story at our website, AmericanDemocracy Minute.org.   Granny D said, “Democracy is not something we HAVE, it's something we DO!”  For the American Democracy Minute, I'm Brian Beihl

Donald Trump «è una minaccia, dovrebbe essere rimosso». Il Washington Post ha attaccato così il leader repubblicano e 45esimo presidente degli Stati Uniti dopo l'assalto al Congresso della giornata di ieri, in cui si sarebbe dovuta certificare la vittoria di Joe Biden alle elezioni presidenziali. «Il rifiuto del presidente Donald Trump di accettare la sua sconfitta elettorale e il suo ininterrotto incitamento ai suoi sostenitori hanno portato mercoledì all'impensabile: un assalto al Campidoglio degli Stati Uniti da parte di una folla violenta che ha travolto la polizia e ha cacciato il Congresso dalle sue aule mentre dibatteva sul conteggio dei voti elettorali. La responsabilità di questo atto di sedizione ricade direttamente sul presidente, che ha dimostrato che la sua permanenza in carica rappresenta una grave minaccia per la democrazia degli Stati Uniti. Dovrebbe essere rimosso», si legge in un editoriale del Washington Post.

Speaker for the Living 'Human Trafficking' Podcast

President Donald Trump reportedly questioned, “Why do we need more Haitians?” and “Why are we having all these people from shithole countries come here?” in a meeting on Thursday, January 11th. Hosts Seth Daire and JJ Janflone discuss what happened at the meeting, and how this will have a negative impact on international relations, as well as human trafficking. The Trump administration's position on immigration is problematic even if Trump didn't say everything attributed to him, and a number of people are defending Trump's words as if he said them, which is highly disturbing, and also showing a lack of understanding of international migrations flows, most notably why people migrate. "We need to be better, and looking at the rest of the world, to think more highly of people." - Seth Daire Sources: Trump derides protections for immigrants from ‘shithole’ countries, The Washington Post Trump decries immigrants from 'shithole countries' coming to US, CNN Shithole special, Vox's The Weeds Here are the right-wing media figures defending Trump’s racist “shithole” comment, Media Matters for America The “Shithole Countries”—and the Rest of the World—Respond to President Trump, The New Yorker Ryan calls Trump 's---hole' remarks 'unhelpful' and 'unfortunate', The Hill This is how ignorant you have to be to call Haiti a ‘shithole’, The Washington Post What Really Happened in Congo, Foreign Affairs 11 Incredible Books by Writers from ‘Shithole’ Countries, Electric Literature Photos: Wikipedia and Pixabay

The confirmation battle over Education Secretary Betsy DeVos was riveting political theater, but it also highlights deep divisions regarding our K-12 education system. Quoting from the Washington Post: “Trump's pick has intensified what already was a polarized debate about school choice. Advocates for such choice see in the Trump administration an extraordinary opportunity to advance their cause on a national scale, whereas teachers unions and many Democrats fear an unprecedented and catastrophic attack on public schools, which they see as one of the nation's bedrock civic institutions.” We're going to talk about education today.

The director of national intelligence and the joint chiefs will attend when discussions pertain to their areas. (BBC)Bannon is making sure there’s no White House paper trail. The Trump administration’s chief strategist has already taken control of both policy and process on national security.

(CNN)Trump signs executive order requiring that for every one new regulation, two must be revoked. (Politico)Trump Picks Neil Gorsuch, A Scalia Clone, For The Supreme Court. Ideologically, Gorsuch would almost certainly represent a reliably conservative vote and voice.
