Government Shutdown Standoff: What’s Really at Stake? — In the Tank Podcast #513

Download MP3
The United States government has shut down once again as Democrats demand the reversal of major spending cuts while Republicans and President Trump refuse to back down. At the same time, the ADL is facing growing backlash after its “Glossary of Hate” targeted groups like TPUSA, prompting even the FBI to distance itself. Meanwhile, Chicago schools continue to struggle with failing literacy rates, yet the teachers union chose to highlight and celebrate Assata Shakur, a convicted terrorist. And while the Wall Street Journal claims the U.S. is losing the race to China on green tech, is that really the full story? 

The Heartland Institute’s Linnea Lueken, Jim Lakely, S.T. Karnick, and Chris Talgo will discuss all of this and more on Episode #513 of the In The Tank Podcast. Join us LIVE at 1 p.m. ET and join us in the live chat!
