      <title>Gerrymandering, Iran, Ukraine &amp; the Future of the American Family</title>
      <link>https://www.pantsuitpoliticsshow.com/publish/post/197263877</link>
      <description>This weekend, the Virginia Supreme Court struck down the voter-approved congressional maps, while the Tennessee legislature eliminated its only Democratic Congressional District — but Sarah and Beth think despondence is the wrong response. Then they break down Trump's increasingly tangled Iran situation, why declaring victory and walking away might be the best bad option on the table, and what Ukraine's quiet battlefield gains reveal what America's absence on the world stage costs. Then, Sarah and Beth discuss what it means when marriage and family become a luxury — and whether the way we talk about life is making the problem worse.

      <title>The Abortion Pill, the Courts, and the Mess They Made</title>
      <description>The Fifth Circuit ruled again on mifepristone and the legal, political, and medical mess that followed is anything but settled. Sarah and Beth break down what Louisiana's "sovereign injury" theory means for mail-access abortion pills, why "leave it to the states" was never a real answer, and where the Republican Party goes from here on an issue Donald Trump desperately wants to avoid. Then, inspired by this week's Pulitzer announcements, they share the pieces of journalism they've never been able to forget.

Topics Discussed


  Mifepristone, the Courts, and the Mail

  Trump, the GOP, and the Abortion Trap

They check on Trump's promises to lower prices and fix our fiscal house. Outside of Politics, prom season has them asking whether we've over-structured — or under-structured — life for our kids.

      <title>The Education Crisis Nobody Wants to Fix</title>
      <description>Rahm Emanuel came ready to talk — and y'all, we were ready. This conversation covers the education crisis in America (which I don’t think a single person in this audience needs to be convinced about), what Mississippi actually did to turn things around, why Rahm closed schools in Chicago and would do it again, and what a real federal education strategy could look like. We also got into fiscal reality, political will, phones in classrooms, the debt we owe to community colleges, and whether the next president should come in like FDR or like a triage nurse. Plus: Rahm's near-death experience at 17, coffee in bed, and empty nest advice. — Sarah

Topics Discussed


  
The Education Crisis: Why We Know What to Do and Won’t Do It (science of reading, phonics, the Mississippi Marathon)



  
High School Reform, Community Colleges, and the “Learn, Plan, Succeed” Framework



  
Phones, Screens, and What We’ve Abdicated to the Algorithm



  
School Closures, Political Will, and Owning Tough Decisions



  
Outside of Politics: Swimming, Coffee in Bed, and Raising Boys

      <title>What Zohran Mamdani Gets Right</title>
      <link>https://omny.fm/shows/pantsuit-politics/what-zohran-mamdani-gets-right</link>
      <description>We spent Tuesday’s episode talking about headline national and global news, and it felt pretty bleak. Today, we’re zooming in on a bright spot, New York City, and asking what we can learn from Mayor Zohran Mamdani as he crosses the first-100-days milestone. Mamdani was hailed as a unique political talent on the campaign trail. We’re interested in how that star power translates to political power and how the Mayor has pivoted from campaign to service. His initial path tells a compelling story about what Democratic Socialism might mean in practice and where the dividing lines actually are in the Democratic Party. Any way around it, Mayor Mamdani’s “pothole politics” are a stark and welcome contrast to what we see in Washington D.C.
 Outside of politics, we consider the call for parents to hold hands and agree that we’ll all do less together. From Maycember sprawl to spirit week standards to the charcuterization of everything, we sort out what we’re doing and why. -Beth
 Topics Discussed:
   Zohran Mamdani’s 100 Days: Pothole Politics and What Democratic Socialism Looks Like in Practice
 
  The Affordability + Corruption + Service Formula — A Democratic Blueprint?
 
  Navigating the Coalition: Mamdani, Trump, Hochul, and the Art of Getting Things Done
 
  Outside of Politics: Maycember and the Case for Parents to Just… Stop

      <title>Punishment Isn't the Same as Accountability</title>
      <link>https://omny.fm/shows/pantsuit-politics/karma-crime-and-punishment</link>
      <description>Sarah and Beth catch up on the headlines — from the ongoing war in Iran and global energy disruptions to congressional gridlock — before diving into a conversation on punishment and accountability through two recent cases: an elderly driver who killed a family of four in San Francisco and two teenagers sentenced for creating AI-generated nude images of classmates. Outside of Politics, they answer a listener's question on whether they believe in karma.
 Topics Discussed:
  Iran and the Energy Crisis
 Punishment and Accountability
 Outside of Politics: Karma is a Vibe

      <title>Nihilism, Special Elections, and the Smut Renaissance</title>
      <link>https://omny.fm/shows/pantsuit-politics/the-temptation-of-nihilism</link>
      <description>When we look at the news right now — Iran, the airports, the corruption, the measles — it's tempting to decide none of it matters because, individually, we can't fix any of it. Nihilism is tempting, and we talk about how sometimes nihilism represents pride, but maybe in the right dose, it’s more like humility. Either way, “nothing matters” is being proven wrong every day. Special elections are producing surprising results. Courts are holding tech companies accountable. And people are figuring it out when institutions fail (I’m especially moved by the story of an underground railroad set up to bring Ukrainian children home from Russia). I say in this episode that my emotional cocktail has a splash of nihilism in it. But the main ingredient is my conviction that our attention and our care and our efforts make a difference. 
 Plus: please clap for my favorite segue in the history of Pantsuit Politics. From: “perhaps we aren’t sleepwalking into a dystopian nightmare” to “are we in a smut renaissance?” facilitated by the shelving of an erotic chatbot. If this doesn’t end your Friday with joy, I don’t know what will. -Beth  
 Topics Discussed:
  Nihilism is Having A Moment 
 Signs of Hope
 Outside of Politics: Smut Renaissance

      <title>Separating the Commander in Chief from the War </title>
      <link>https://omny.fm/shows/pantsuit-politics/separating-the-commander-in-chief-from-the-war</link>
      <description>Beth is joined by Rep. Greg Landsman to discuss the role of Congress, the decision to strike Iran, and why we need a Department of AI. Plus, they check in on their New Year's resolutions. 
 Topics Discussed:
  What "being done" looks like and whether that's realistic with this president
 The difference between Iran and what's happening in Venezuela and Cuba
 Congress's role in military action and Landsman's 30-day War Powers Resolution
 Whether the 2026 midterms can actually constrain this administration
 The Anthropic/Department of Defense standoff and why Landsman wants a Department of AI
 New Year's resolution check-ins (gluten-free life, no-shopping challenges, and sleep studies)

      <link>https://omny.fm/shows/pantsuit-politics/troubles-coming-tariffs-the-dollar-and-hidden-economic-risk</link>
      <description>The Supreme Court ruled 6-3 that the International Emergency Economic Powers Act does not give President Trump the authority to impose sweeping global tariffs. Sarah and Beth discuss how the tariff case is just one piece of a bigger and more troubling economic picture: a weakening dollar, a bond market under pressure, and a private credit sector showing signs of serious stress. Plus, Beth has finally watched The Pitt, and she and Sarah make the case that an emergency room drama might be exactly what America needs right now.
 Topics Discussed:
   The Supreme Court says Trump’s Tariffs are Illegal
 
  Economic Indicators are Changing

      <title>On the Ground in Minneapolis: Operation Metro Surge Is Far From Over</title>
      <link>https://omny.fm/shows/pantsuit-politics/on-the-ground-in-minneapolis-operation-metro-surge-is-far-from-over</link>
      <description>There’s a theme in today’s episode of holding the breath, which is something I’ve been doing about unrest and possible US military action in Iran. Sarah and I discuss reporting that the administration seems increasingly likely to take what they term “kinetic” action (and what Reps. Ro Khanna and Thomas Massie and Senators Tim Kaine and Rand Paul would call acts of war). 
 Then there’s the way that our guest and friend Natalia Terfa describes holding her breath in Minneapolis. Even as Operation Metro Surge “winds down,” there are still agents and agitators. There is still fear and tension. There is damage left to repair after “it’s over,” and a sense that it’s not really over yet. We’re grateful to Natalia for her leadership on the ground and her willingness to discuss it with us today. 
 We often talk about outside of politics as an exhale, and we hope it is today. We talk about our very-non-sports-y Winter Olympics takes, with a special shout out to all of you who participated in the Spice Cabinet Opening Ceremonies. 
 If you’ve listened for a long time, you know that I love yoga. One of my favorite parts of a yoga class is taking a collective breath. It reminds me that we’re here. We’re alive, right now, and that’s its own form of miracle. It reminds me that we’re not alone. I hope this episode gives you that sense, too. -Beth

 Good morning, friends. It’s Thursday, February 19th — the Good News Brief. And since we were hard on AI this week, I thought we should remind ourselves that AI is also quietly doing something extraordinary: remaking the future of human medicine. Today’s stories are a mix of awe and genuine hope.

      <title>Colbert Censored, the SAVE Act Explained, and AI Goes to War</title>
      <link>https://omny.fm/shows/pantsuit-politics/colbert-censored-the-save-act-explained-and-ai-goes-to-war</link>
      <description>Today, we're discussing the latest instance of large companies pre-emptively caving to the Trump Administration: Stephen Colbert's blocked interview with Texas Senate candidate James Tallarico. With that backdrop, the House of Representatives passed the SAVE America Act, which would require proof of citizenship to register to vote. Sarah and Beth discuss why this is a conversation about voter suppression disguised as election integrity. Next, we discuss the standoff between Anthropic and the Department of Defense over the use of Claude in military operations and domestic surveillance. Outside of politics, Sarah and Beth answer a listener's question about astrology and what it means to hold those frameworks loosely in an age of data and critical thinking.
 Topics Discussed
  The Save America Act
 Artificial Intelligence Overwhelm 
 Outside of Politics: Astrology and Tarot

      <title>What Trump Gets Wrong About China</title>
      <link>https://omny.fm/shows/pantsuit-politics/what-trump-gets-wrong-about-china</link>
      <description>Sarah and Beth dig into why China suddenly feels both harder to understand and more important to pay attention to — from Xi Jinping's latest purges of military leadership to what his consolidating power means for the U.S. They also sit down with veteran journalist Jane Perlez to discuss what Americans get wrong about China. Plus, they talk about where they would hypothetically set up Pantsuit Politics International.
 Topics Discussed
   What We’re Missing On China
 
  Jane Perlez on Trade, President Xi, and the Future of China
 
  Outside of Politics: Pantsuit Politics International

      <title>The No-Win Dynamic: Understanding Antisemitism and Israel</title>
      <link>https://omny.fm/shows/pantsuit-politics/the-no-win-dynamic-understanding-antisemitism-and-israel</link>
      <description>Why does support for Israel fuel antisemitism on the right, while criticism of Israel fuels it on the left? The Atlantic's Yair Rosenberg returns to explain what he calls the "no-win dynamic" of prejudice—where any argument can be twisted to justify hatred.
 Sarah and Beth talk with Yair about his recent research revealing a surprising generational shift: younger Americans are significantly more likely to express antisemitic views than older generations, and age matters more than political party. He unpacks why this is happening—from the fading memory of World War II to the culture of edginess and transgression online—and explains why it's so hard to distinguish "a punchline from a punch."
 The conversation also moves beyond Israel as symbol to Israel as actual country, exploring the upcoming election, Netanyahu's grip on power, the internal battles over university diversity programs and film funding, and why understanding these complexities matters for productive conversations about the Middle East.

      <title>Habits of the Heart: Conclusion</title>
      <link>https://omny.fm/shows/pantsuit-politics/habits-of-the-heart-conclusion</link>
      <description>As our team takes time off for the holidays, we are sharing the conversations Sarah and Beth had this year about Habits of the Heart. This final episode originally aired in December for our premium members on Substack.
 Whether you’re also taking a well-deserved break, spending time with family, or just looking for something meaningful to listen to, we hope you’ll join us to revisit (or enjoy for the first time!) this thoughtful exploration from Sarah and Beth of this powerful, prescient book.
 Beth subtitled this section, “Good Luck, Babes.” They talk about the problem of individualism, how we need to make not just a good life, but a good society, why we need to argue more, and the struggle in realizing that nothing systemic can save us from personal suffering.

      <title>Small Gratitudes</title>
      <link>https://omny.fm/shows/pantsuit-politics/small-gratitudes</link>
      <description>Here at Pantsuit Politics, we wanted to approach our gratitude a little differently this year. We reached out to a bunch of people in our community and asked them to do that with us. What you’ll hear today are members of our team, listeners like you, some friends of the show, and many of the guests we had on throughout this year sharing the absolute smallest things they are thankful for. What we got is a beautiful mix of poignant, funny, heartfelt, and honest answers.
 If you’ve never watched us on video, this episode is a great one to do so. It’s so fun to see everyone’s faces and spaces as they share what they are grateful for. Plus, Studio D was kind enough to work with me to put everyone’s names on the video as well, in case you don’t recognize them on voices alone.
 We’d love to know the smallest thing you are grateful for as well. We’ve made the Substack comments open to everyone for this episode, so make sure to share your small gratitude there.
 Our team is, today and always, grateful for each and every one of you who make our work possible.

      <title>Spicy Bonus: The Good News Edition</title>
      <link>https://omny.fm/shows/pantsuit-politics/spicy-bonus-the-good-news-edition</link>
      <description>Note: This week, we’re sharing the spicy bonus episode with all our subscribers - free and paid. If you’re a free subscriber, we hope you enjoy this preview. These are the types of robust, free-flowing conversations we’re sharing every Thursday for paid subscribers. We hope you’ll consider joining us as a paid subscriber so you can enjoy all our premium content, access the comments and community, and support our small business.
 On this week’s spicy bonus episode, Sarah and Beth discuss the encouraging election results from around the country. They discuss Nancy Pelosi’s announced retirement and how this administration is leaving so many missed opportunities on the table. This could have been a time of real change, but, instead, they are just breaking things.
 Speaking of breaking things, the political right is facing a real breakdown within its ranks. There’s a real divide happening.
 All this, plus the desire to do real work and be connected with each other, and the difference between virtue and moralizing. It’s all here in one of our characteristically wide-ranging episodes.
 *This episode is explicit.

      <title>States Are Excluding Soda from SNAP.  Should They?</title>
      <link>https://omny.fm/shows/pantsuit-politics/snap-benefits</link>
      <description>Should SNAP benefits cover soda and candy? Six states get federal approval to exclude them, and Sarah and Beth debate whether this is smart public health policy or government overreach—wrestling with the tension between the "nutrition" and "assistance" parts of the program's mission.
 Should tax dollars subsidize products that make people less healthy? Sarah and Beth explore the "common sense politics" of restricting junk food purchases, Sarah's personal experience using SNAP cards during COVID, and whether the Biden administration should have approved state waivers as experiments instead of blocking them.
 Is the soda industry the real villain? Sarah calls soda "poison" and predicts it will be viewed like cigarettes in decades to come, while Beth argues the government should regulate the industry upstream rather than police individual purchases downstream.
 Plus: Bedtime routines, sleep struggles, and why Beth can sleep through anything while Sarah wakes up at the slightest sound.

      <title>The Power of Three: 24 Years of Male-Female Friendship</title>
      <link>https://omny.fm/shows/pantsuit-politics/the-power-of-three-24-years-of-male-female-friendship</link>
      <description>What happens when a college "greet line" handshake turns into a 24-year friendship? Sarah welcomes her longtime friends Mike and Smith to explore how their trio has survived decades of different life phases, cross-country moves, and major life changes, from their freshman year at Transylvania University through careers, marriages, and parenthood—all anchored by a book club that became their lifeline.
 Why are platonic male-female friendships so rare in American culture? They examine the social dynamics that make cross-gender friendships uncommon, how romantic assumptions complicate these relationships, and what it takes for friendships to survive when partners enter the picture, exploring whether having sisters, shared interests, or just good "riffing" chemistry makes the difference.
 Is America heading toward a "soft secession" by blue and red states? They flip the script on our usual Outside of Politics segment and tackle the current political moment, debating whether fertile ground exists for a viable third party, why Trump's cultural omnipresence makes him irreplaceable, and whether the country's "bimodal" split on everything from news consumption to local governance signals a fundamental breaking point in American democracy.

      <title>Climate Change(s)</title>
      <link>https://omny.fm/shows/pantsuit-politics/climate-change-s</link>
      <description>Sarah and Beth tackle the complicated state of climate discourse in America. While extreme weather events become increasingly common and climate change shows up in our daily lives—from electricity bills to insurance rates—the national conversation remains frustratingly frozen in partisan gridlock.
 They explore why climate change has become such a divisive political issue despite its visible effects, discuss the tension between climate catastrophism and practical solutions, and examine what effective climate messaging might look like going forward. From the “mile wide, inch deep” nature of public support to the challenges facing both progressive and conservative climate advocates, this conversation captures the full complexity of where we are—and where we might need to go.
 Finally, Sarah introduces Beth (and us) to junk journaling, a creative practice of transforming everyday ephemera into meaningful keepsakes.

      <title>The Shutdown Benefits Republicans (For Now)</title>
      <link>https://omny.fm/shows/pantsuit-politics/the-shutdown-benefits-republicans-for-now</link>
      <description>Government shutdown drags on with no end in sight. Sarah and Beth explore why Republicans lack motivation to resolve it—from giving Russell Vought a runway to shut down agencies, to avoiding responsibility, to the Epstein document discharge petition battle. 
 Federal troops and ICE operations escalate in American cities. Sarah and Beth break down the National Guard deployments to Los Angeles, DC, Memphis, and the blocked attempt in Oregon, plus aggressive ICE raids across the country. 
 What "war zones" actually look like versus Portland protests. Sarah and Beth push back on the administration's characterization of cities, discuss ice impersonators endangering citizens, and debate whether Gavin Newsom and JB Pritzker are handling federal overreach differently. 
 Plus: Taylor Swift's The Life of a Showgirl album—what worked and what didn't.

      <title>Netanyahu Feels the Pressure, Democrats Hold the Line, and Pete Hegseth Wants a Fight</title>
      <link>https://omny.fm/shows/pantsuit-politics/netanyahu-feels-the-pressure-democrats-hold-the-line-and-pete-hegseth-wants-a-fight</link>
      <description>Can Trump's Gaza peace plan actually work? Sarah and Beth break down the 20-point proposal and why Netanyahu is finally feeling the heat. They discuss what's changed—from polling on Israel to Ukraine's drone warfare lessons—and whether this administration's transactional approach might accidentally deliver lasting peace.
 Why are so few panicking about the government shutdown? With funding lapsed and Congress in recess, Beth and Sarah explore the "giant shrug" response from those not directly affected and whether crying wolf has made actual shutdowns feel disminished. They debate Democratic strategy on healthcare protections, discuss the problem with shutdown threats, and propose what a genuine budget process reform could look like.
 What happened when Pete Hegseth called 800 generals to Quantico? Sarah and Beth dissect the defense secretary's retreat featuring Christian nationalism, complaints about "fat" people in the military, and Trump's "enemy within" rhetoric. They work through the tension of taking legitimate military critiques seriously while resisting the administration's trap of making everything a partisan thunderdome—and why the calm response from cities with National Guard deployments offers a better model.
 Plus: The treats roundup you need this week, from The Pitt to fall magazines to cinnamon toast blondies.

      <title>Why This Government Shutdown Could Be Different (And Harder to Win)</title>
      <link>https://omny.fm/shows/pantsuit-politics/why-this-government-shutdown-could-be-different-and-harder-to-win</link>
      <description>What is the path forward for Gaza and the West Bank? Beth and Sarah discuss Trump's fourth meeting with the Israeli Prime Minister as European countries recognize Palestinian statehood. They examine Tony Blair's transition proposal, Trump's 21-point plan, and whether the Trump administration can be a reliable partner in peace.
 What happens to a government shutdown when "we don't have local politics anymore"? As the government funding deadline hits tomorrow, Sarah and Beth explore why the old political playbooks may not work in today's splintered media environment. Sarah and Beth evaluate Democratic negotiating priorities - from healthcare tax credits to PBS funding - and debate whether representatives should act as delegates or trustees when Constitutional order itself is at stake.
 Is the Comey indictment as flimsy as it looks? Beth breaks down the two-page indictment charging the former FBI Director with lying to Congress about a 2016 leak. With a grand jury already refusing one charge and a statute of limitations that barely applies, they discuss what it means when the Justice Department has fully become "the revenge department for the president" rather than serving the American people.
 Plus: Sarah shares her Common Ground Pilgrimage to England and achieves her life dream of comforting a crying baby on a transatlantic flight.

      <title>Trump Orders Venezuelan Boats Destroyed in the Caribbean</title>
      <link>https://omny.fm/shows/pantsuit-politics/senator-chris-van-hollen</link>
      <description>Is the President authorized to blow up boats and kill suspected drug smugglers? Beth speaks with Senator Chris Van Hollen (D-MD) about Trump's use of military force to strike vessels in the Caribbean Sea without due process, trials, or congressional authorization. The Senator explains why these extrajudicial killings violate constitutional war powers and put America at greater risk internationally.
 Why aren't Republicans checking executive overreach? Senator Van Hollen describes how the GOP has become a "rubber stamp" for Trump, abandoning its constitutional duty to provide checks and balances. From dismantling congressional war powers to remaining silent on due process violations, he explores what it means when an entire party contracts out its judgment to one person.
 What levers does Congress actually have right now? As the government funding deadline approaches, Van Hollen discusses the Democratic strategy of "creative confrontation" - from showing up at ICE detention centers to challenging book bans at the Naval Academy. He explains why he won't give Trump a "blank check" even from the minority, and what safeguards against illegal withholding of funds could look like in any budget deal.

      <title>Political Polarization: Why Politics Can't Be Our Religion</title>
      <link>https://omny.fm/shows/pantsuit-politics/copy-of-vigorous-debate-for-the-rest-of-us</link>
      <description>Can Democrats move beyond defending broken institutions? Beth and guest host Mike Nellis explore how the party has become trapped in protecting a status quo that isn't working, while Republicans offer only grievance without solutions. Nellis argues that both parties lack a positive vision for America, leaving Americans choosing between institutional failure and billionaire-funded chaos.
 Why does Trump strategically pick fights he can win? From Jimmy Kimmel's suspension to targeting ActBlue, Beth and Mike examine how Trump chooses vulnerable opponents while avoiding stronger figures, and how his "retribution arc" exploits existing weaknesses in media and activist organizations.
 How do we have real conversations when algorithms profit from division? Drawing on everything from pro wrestling metaphors to advice from his Trump-voting FBI father, they discuss why billionaires benefit from keeping Americans fighting their neighbors, the loneliness epidemic among young people, and finding common ground beyond political identity.

      <title>Vigorous Debate for the Rest of Us</title>
      <link>https://omny.fm/shows/pantsuit-politics/vigorous-debate-for-the-rest-of-us</link>
      <description>What happens when a 22-year-old's "mission mindset" leads to political assassination? Sarah and Beth grapple with the charging documents and online footprint of Charlie Kirk's shooter, exploring how video game culture, sedentary leisure, and the deadly confluence that defies simple political categorization.
 Can we stop using historical figures as props to end arguments? They examine how both sides wield Hitler comparisons and identity markers to avoid engaging with actual ideas, discussing Sarah's personal reckoning with years of ad hominem attacks and why "you're a Nazi" has become a conversation killer rather than a call for critical thinking.
 Why do young people know Charlie Kirk but reject his ideas? From the 90% name recognition but only 30% approval among Gen Z to the "sedentary alone leisure time" crisis among young men, Sarah and Beth explore how we ceded intellectual territory to figures like Jordan Peterson and Andrew Tate by refusing to engage with questions about masculinity and purpose.
 How do we debate ideas without destroying relationships? Drawing on everything from couples therapy techniques to sibling fights, they discuss moving from "sneering" to intellectual rigor, why the personal being political doesn't mean emotions should dominate arguments, and how to choose relationship over being right.

Sarah and Beth process the assassination of Charlie Kirk and its aftermath, exploring how the same person can be seen as both saint and monster depending on your media diet, and why we're all seeing different versions of the same story.
 How do we have "soft conflict" in a world demanding verbal war? They examine the death spiral of online discourse where nuance dies and everyone becomes either completely good or irredeemably evil, discussing why we've lost the ability to disagree without destroying each other and how algorithmic social media poisons every conversation.
 Can we escape the cycle of cancellation and retribution? From firing people over social media posts to the deification and demonization of public figures, Sarah and Beth explore how both left and right use the same punitive playbook, and why someone has to go first in laying down weapons.
 Why are we all craving something real when everything feels like performance? Outside of Politics, they discuss the exhaustion of being extremely online, the appeal of house plants and tangible hobbies, and why even award shows feel hollow when streaming has fractured our shared cultural experiences.

      <description>Sarah and Beth react to both the horrific assassination of Charlie Kirk and the response online from people on both sides of the political aisle. If we truly believe every human life has value (and we here at Pantsuit Politics do), what does that mean as we reckon with political violence?

      <title>Why Congressional Democrats Are Failing Their Moment</title>
      <link>https://omny.fm/shows/pantsuit-politics/copy-of-is-trump-a-dictator</link>
      <description>Should Democrats shut down the government to stop Trump's authoritarian overreach? Sarah and Beth break down Ezra Klein's New York Times op-ed calling on Democrats to use the September 30th funding deadline to confront Trump's illegal pocket rescissions, growing corruption, and dismantling of congressional oversight, while examining whether traditional bipartisan governance enables authoritarianism.
 Why has Congress abandoned its constitutional duty to control government spending? They explore how the broken appropriations process—where the last complete budget was passed in 1997—has created a system of continuing resolutions that empowers the executive branch, as Trump's team openly admits they want Congress to "just keep doing what you're doing" while they consolidate power and enrich themselves.
 When is it okay to sing along at public events, and when should you stay quiet? Outside of Politics, they tackle the etiquette dilemmas of candlelight concerts, Broadway shows, movie sing-alongs, and graduation ceremonies, exploring how our "you owe me perfection and I owe you nothing" culture has broken down basic public courtesy and shared behavioral standards.

      <title>Is Trump A Dictator?</title>
      <link>https://omny.fm/shows/pantsuit-politics/is-trump-a-dictator</link>
      <description>Is Trump a dictator, or just a wannabe? Sarah and Beth define authoritarianism and examine how decades of expanding executive power set the stage for Trump's emergency declarations, ICE army, and attacks on expertise, while exploring whether American institutions can resist the authoritarian playbook.
 What happens when courts push back but the Supreme Court stays silent? They analyze Trump's use of emergency powers to justify military action in the Caribbean, mass deportations without due process, and the renaming of the Department of Defense to the Department of War, discussing how legal challenges create incentives for escalation.
 Why are we giving our kids adult experiences earlier and earlier? Outside of Politics, Sarah and Beth dive into the phenomenon of elaborate dorm room decorating, the pressure to make kids popular, and how parents navigate the fine line between support and performance in an Instagram-driven world.

      <description>What happens when we can't tell truth from rumors anymore? Sarah and Beth process the bizarre weekend when Trump death rumors dominated X while official news sources stayed silent, exploring what this reveals about our fractured media landscape and the breakdown of institutional trust.
 How do you rebuild expertise once it walks out the door? They examine the chaos at CDC under RFK Jr.'s influence, including the firing of Director Dr. Susan Monarez and mass resignations of top leadership, discussing whether institutions can be reformed or must be torn down entirely.
 Why are we all craving slower, more tangible things? Outside of Politics, Sarah and Beth reflect on the movement toward point-and-shoot cameras, canceling Amazon Prime, and pushing back against digital overwhelm in search of more intentional living.

      <title>Minneapolis &amp; DC (Plus: Taylor Swift's Engagement)</title>
      <link>https://omny.fm/shows/pantsuit-politics/minneapolis-dc-plus-taylor-swifts-engagement</link>
      <description>How do we talk about safety without demonizing entire communities? Sarah and Beth grapple with the complex psychology behind violence while examining Trump's federal takeover of DC police and exploring why crime statistics show progress even as public fear remains high.
 When does federal intervention help versus harm local communities? They analyze the deployment of National Guard troops to DC, the disconnect between data-driven policing successes and public perception of chaos, and what it means when emotions drive policy more than evidence.
 Why do so many (including us) find so much joy in Taylor Swift's engagement? In Outside of Politics, they discuss the joy of choosing community celebration over doom-scrolling, what this royal-level romance might mean for modern marriage, and why some people want to politicize everything.

      <title>1 in 20: Canada's Growing Cause of Death</title>
      <link>https://omny.fm/shows/pantsuit-politics/copy-of-israel-and-gaza-today</link>
      <description>What can Canada's death laws teach us about policy limits? Sarah and Beth examine Canada's medical assistance in dying (MAID) program, where assisted deaths now account for 1 in 20 deaths nationwide - more than Alzheimer's and diabetes combined. They trace how policies that began with terminally ill patients have expanded to include those with treatable conditions and mental health issues alone.
 When does personal autonomy go too far? Sarah and Beth explore the moral injury experienced by healthcare workers, question whether doctors should make ethical decisions, and examine what happens when individual autonomy becomes society's dominant value. 
 How do you deepen friendships by sharing life stories? In Outside of Politics, Sarah describes a weekend exercise where friends told their complete life stories from birth to present, plus creative alternatives like wedding album tours and conversation games like Hygge.

      <title>Israel and Gaza Today</title>
      <link>https://omny.fm/shows/pantsuit-politics/israel-and-gaza-today</link>
      <description>How have our perspectives changed since October 7th? Sarah and Beth open up about the difficulty of covering a conflict where any words will cause pain to someone. They share how their perspectives have evolved since October 7th and grapple with the moral complexities of Israel's actions, America's role, and what comes next.
 How do you hold complexity without losing moral clarity? Sarah and Beth explore how the Israeli government's actions have shifted their thinking, the limits of international law, and whether America should continue military aid without conditions.
 What is the best summer reading? In Outside of Politics, Sarah breaks down her summer reading wins and fails, from nonfiction gems to "trash" novels, while Beth plans her "fiction fall" reading list.

      <title>Putin, Epstein, and the Politics of Accountability</title>
      <link>https://omny.fm/shows/pantsuit-politics/trump-putin-epstein</link>
      <description>Are President Trump's diplomatic gambles paying off or backfiring? Sarah and Beth analyze Trump's summit with Vladimir Putin in Alaska, examining whether giving Putin a platform on American soil legitimizes his regime or advances genuine peace negotiations. 
 What does the Jeffrey Epstein case reveal about justice in America? Sarah and Beth debate how wealth and power corrupt our justice system. They wrestle with distinguishing between legitimate concerns about institutional failures around the Justice Department's handling of Epstein's case and conspiracy theories.
 How do you find genuine stress relief in chaotic times? In Outside of Politics, Sarah and Beth discuss managing stress and finding hobbies.

      <description>We are thrilled to be sharing a conversation today between Beth and Dr. Casey Burgat, a professor and author of the new book, We Hold These "Truths": How to Spot the Myths that are Holding America Back. Beth and Casey talk about the balance of power between the branches of government, what a reset would look like, where they would start fixing things, and — perhaps most importantly — their shared love of the Three Pines series by Louise Penny.

      <title>Spicy Bonus Episode: A Simmering Rage</title>
      <link>https://omny.fm/shows/pantsuit-politics/spicy-bonus-episode-a-simmering-rage</link>
      <description>Today’s spicy bonus episode is available to all listeners. These bonus episodes are where Sarah and Beth let loose a bit more than the main show. Their feelings are often more raw and their conversation often has more heat. This episode, like many of our spicy bonus episodes, is explicit.
 If you enjoy this type of conversation from Sarah and Beth, we hope you’ll join us as a paid subscriber here on Substack. Being part of the Spice Cabinet — as we lovingly refer to our paid subscribers — gets you access to this weekly spicy bonus episode, as well as Sarah and Beth’s two premium shows: Good Morning and More to Say. Plus, access to the comments, extras like our film club, and more.
 Join our Spicy Cabinet community on Substack.
 In this episode, Sarah and Beth talk about their feelings of powerlessness and frustration at how the system feels unresponsive right now. They also reflect on the Cincinnati live event and how we try to avoid a consumption model in our events. Plus, they share how they are thinking about our production as we head into a short summer break.

      <title>Introducing: Hasan Minhaj Doesn't Know (featuring Ronan Farrow)</title>
      <link>https://omny.fm/shows/pantsuit-politics/introducing-hasan-minhaj-doesnt-know-featuring-ronan-farrow</link>
      <description>This week, we’re introducing you to a show we think you’ll really enjoy—it’s called Hasan Minhaj Doesn’t Know, and it blends humor with genuine curiosity in a way that feels both fresh and thoughtful.
 You probably know Hasan from The Daily Show or Patriot Act, but in this podcast, he sits down with guests from across politics, culture, and tech to ask big, sometimes absurd, but always honest questions.
 In this episode, he talks with Pulitzer Prize-winning journalist Ronan Farrow about his HBO documentary on spyware technology, his new podcast Not a Very Good Murderer, and—of course—trades hair care tips with a fellow hair bro.
 After you listen, search Hasan Minhaj Doesn’t Know wherever you get your podcasts, or head to: https://lemonada.lnk.to/hasanminhajdoesntknowfd

      <title>Introducing: Choice Words with Samantha Bee</title>
      <link>https://omny.fm/shows/pantsuit-politics/introducing-choice-words-with-samantha-bee</link>
      <description>We're excited to share with you a show we love, Choice Words with Samantha Bee. In this episode, Congressman Maxwell Frost joins Sam to talk about what it’s like to be the first member of Gen Z in Congress, and why it’s so important for Democrats to choose to see themselves as the opposition party, not the minority party. They talk about how to make decisions that impact millions of people and why the Kennedy Center coup was more significant than people think, and that he has been reading a lot about Elon Musk because it’s important to know your enemies. Sam learns that Congressman Frost is a “no notifications guy,” that he subscribes to even more newsletters than she does, and that the phone calls to Congress are actually working.

      <title>Primary Everyone</title>
      <link>https://omny.fm/shows/pantsuit-politics/primary-everyone</link>
      <description>In our ongoing whiteboard series, we are having conversations about where we are getting it wrong in American politics - specifically Democratic politics - and dreaming of a better way for the future.
 Tyler Austin Harper is a perfect guest for a conversation like that. On today’s show, Sarah and Beth sit down with the writer to examine the strategic errors Democrats are making both in the political arena and higher education spaces. Together, they challenge some of what has become conventional wisdom and alienated formerly key Democratic voting blocs, explore some pragmatic alternatives, and ask what it will take to recalibrate a Democratic approach and build broader coalitions.

 Tyler Austin Harper is a perfect guest for a conversation like that. On today’s show, Sarah and Beth sit down with the writer to examine the strategic errors Democrats are making both in the political arena and higher education spaces. Together, they challenge some of what has become conventional wisdom and alienated formerly key Democratic voting blocs, explore some pragmatic alternatives, and ask what it will take to recalibrate a Democratic approach and build broader coalitions.

      <title>Is Elon Building or Destroying?</title>
      <link>https://omny.fm/shows/pantsuit-politics/is-elon-building-or-destroying</link>
      <description>Destruction can be part of the building process; it certainly is a key part of Elon Musk’s approach to business and his new - legally ambiguous - role with DOGE. There is, however, a fine line between disruption and destruction. The tech mantra of “move fast and break things” can be dangerous, particularly when applied to the government. On today’s show, Sarah and Beth explore this idea and how the new Trump administration is letting Musk run full steam ahead.
 Plus, they discuss the Trump administration’s approach to foreign policy, most notably marked this week by Ukraine’s exclusion from the negotiating table with Russia. Outside of politics, Beth shares her new hack for managing her online shopping.
 Topics Discussed
   Ukraine Excluded from Negotiations
 
  Is Elon Musk Building or Destroying Through DOGE?

      <title>On Trump, China, and Romance</title>
      <link>https://omny.fm/shows/pantsuit-politics/on-trump-china-and-romance</link>
      <description>It’s not lost on us that we are taking a more unique approach to the second Trump administration than many other creators.

      <title>A Teen, a YouTuber, and a Mom Talk Politics</title>
      <link>https://bit.ly/3NtuI0b</link>
      <description>On today’s show, we’re continuing our discussion and demonstration of how we talk politics with our kids. We are excited to share a conversation today between Brian Tyler Cohen, Sarah, and Sarah’s teenage son Griffin. A conversation between a teenage content consumer, the content creator, and the teen’s parent is a rare combination - one we think offers a lot of insight.
  
 We are thrilled to be hosting a joint live show this November 7th with one of our favorites, Vanessa Zoltan of Harry Potter and the Sacred Text! Join us in Boston - or via live stream - for a fun night among friends.
  
 Join us for a live virtual event with the Mormon Women for Ethical Government on Thursday, October 17 at 7pm MT / 9pm ET. All are welcome to join in real-time, but the recording will only be available to MWEG members. Sign up through this link and join us!

      <title>A Community Fight in Wisconsin, From To See Each Other</title>
      <link>https://shows.acast.com/pantsuit-politics/episodes/a-community-fight-in-wisconsin-from-to-see-each-other</link>
      <description>Sharing an episode of To See Each Other, a show that complicates the narrative about small town Americans in our most misunderstood, and often abandoned, communities. This season, host George Goehl travels to Lincoln County, Wisconsin to follow a small town battle for the last remaining public nursing home in the community. It’s a heart-pounding roller coaster of a fight - in a swing state that could determine the election. Over the course of the show, a universal truth emerges: That in every complicated set of politics, when we refuse to give up on each other, we can build a better future.

      <link>https://shows.acast.com/pantsuit-politics/episodes/the-nuanced-life-the-power-of-community</link>
      <description>This is our final episode of the Summer Nuanced Life Reboot, and we're sharing a very poignant conversation with our longtime listener, Kelly Kaufman. Kelly reached out to us after her daughter died suddenly from an asthma attack last March. Her story of grieving with her community and how friends, strangers, and even Hasbro have wrapped her family in love was so potent that we asked her to join Sarah and Beth to talk about her experience in her own voice and words.
  
 *This episode contains a conversation about the loss of a child

To support the show and get access to content like this multiple times each week, subscribe to our Premium content on our Patreon page or Apple Podcasts Subscriptions.
We're delighted to welcome Rosemary Ketchum back to Pantsuit Politics. Rosemary joined us in June 2020 when she became the first out transgender public servant in West Virginia's history. Since then, Rosemary has done awesome work in her community and we wanted to invite her back for an update as part of an upcoming Pride Month series we're working on.
When we reached out, we discovered Rosemary is running in an election happening TODAY in hopes of being elected as Wheeling's next mayor. We couldn't let her election day go by without sharing this energizing and encouraging conversation with you. As you'll hear, Rosemary is so smart and charismatic. We're wishing her the absolute best in her election today.
If you're in Wheeling, make sure you get out and cast your vote for Rosemary today!

CORRECTION: The Pell Grant does not run out. There are lifetime limits per student on the Pell Grant and basically every other grant that exists is first-come, first-served, but not Pell. Pell is always available. We are in the process of omitting this statement from the episode and will also correct it on Friday's episode.

      <link>https://www.patreon.com/pantsuitpolitics</link>
      <description>Today, we're sharing a special episode with you. This conversation with Jane Ferguson was released as part of our fall 2023 book club for our Premium members. As we wrap up our winter cycle this week and prepare to launch our summer cycle, we thought it would be fun to share a glimpse into the type of book club content our Premium members are receiving. You can join us and get access to all past and future book club content - plus our plethora of regular Premium content - at patreon.com/pantsuitpolitics.
Jane Ferguson's memoir, No Ordinary Assignment, details her life as a war reporter. Her courageous work is breath-taking and inspiring. We hope you love this conversation and, if you haven't read the book, that you pick it up as well.

      <title>More to Say: Love and Marriage and Disabilities and Money</title>
      <link>https://www.patreon.com/pantsuitpolitics</link>
      <description>We're sharing an episode of our Pantsuit Politics Premium show, More to Say, that Beth released earlier this week. To support the show and get access to content like this multiple times each week, subscribe to our Premium content on our Patreon page or Apple Podcasts Subscriptions. 
On September 13, 20 couples got married in a ceremony on the National Mall. It was both a celebration and a protest. The couples included people with disabilities who risk losing life-sustaining benefits by marrying people who are not disabled. Today, we're talking about the marriage penalties written into federal law and how those penalties can be eliminated.
If this episode speaks to you, I hope you'll consider sending a note to your representative today. It can be straightforward: "I learned about marriage penalties in Social Security, Medicare, and Medicaid regulations on a podcast. This seems wrong to me. I hope you will look into and support the Marriage Equality for Disabled Adults Act (HR 6405) introduced last January by Rep. Jimmy Panetta."

      <title>Government Leaks: Ten Years Since Edward Snowden</title>
      <link>https://bit.ly/3NtuI0b</link>
      <description>It's been a decade since Edward Snowden leaked government documents. Today, we're reviewing the history of what led him to that point and what happened in the aftermath. We found it helpful to look at the story as a whole rather than the slow trickle of reveals that happened at the time. We hope you'll find this look back valuable as a historical exercise and as we think about the more significant impact of leaking government documents.

      <title>Kristin Kobes du Mez on the Origin of the Culture Wars</title>
      <link>https://www.pantsuitpoliticsshow.com/podcast</link>
      <description>The American political landscape has been undeniably impacted by American evangelicalism and its leaders. Few people know the details of this better than Kristin Kobes du Mez, who literally wrote the book on it (Jesus and John Wayne: How White Evangelicals Corrupted a Faith and Fractured a Nation). In this episode, she joins us for a conversation about evangelicals' political impact, the legacies of toxic masculinity and racism within the church, and how our current culture wars trace their roots to this messy mixing of church and state.

In the intervening years, labor unions have only become more hotly discussed in the United States.

      <title>5 Things You Need to Know About Monkeypox</title>
      <link>https://www.pantsuitpoliticsshow.com/podcast</link>
      <description>We are breaking down some basic facts about monkeypox - including what you should know as it continues to spread around the world. 


Monkeypox isn't novel. 

Monkeypox is not an STD.

Monkeypox is now a global health emergency and a national emergency in the US. 

We already have vaccines!

We don't know everything, and we probably aren't doing enough.

      <title>Now What? Fractured Communities </title>
      <link>https://www.pantsuitpoliticsshow.com/podcast</link>
      <description>This year, our summer series centers around our new book, Now What?: How to Move Forward When We're Divided (About Basically Everything). We brought together groups of listeners who were on our book launch team to discuss how they’ve seen political conflict play out in their own lives. Over these episodes, we’ll share these conversations with you, along with some thoughts and strategies for how to navigate division in many different types of relationship. 
In this final episode, we’re discussing workplaces and geographic communities. We may expect some conflict in these spaces, particularly if we live or work in diverse areas. However, expecting the division doesn’t make it any easier or less personal.

Today, we’re focusing political division within faith communities. These spaces are often meant to be a refuge, but can become the opposite when conflict takes a stronghold.

      <title>Now What? Strained Relationships</title>
      <link>https://www.pantsuitpoliticsshow.com/podcast</link>
      <description>This year, our summer series centers around our new book, Now What?: How to Move Forward When We're Divided (About Basically Everything). We brought together groups of listeners who were on our book launch team to discuss how they’ve seen political conflict play out in their own lives. Over these episodes, we’ll share these conversations with you, along with some thoughts and strategies for how to navigate division in many different types of relationship.
Today, we’re focusing on some of the closest relationships we have: romantic partnerships and friendships. Having conflict in your home or in your most vulnerable relationships feels scary and even threatening at times. We’re also often to sacrifice the most to sustain these relationships regardless.

We brought together groups of listeners who were on our book launch team to discuss how they’ve seen political conflict play out in their own lives. Over the next few weeks, we’ll share these conversations with you, along with some thoughts and strategies for how to navigate division in many different types of relationship.
Today, we’re focusing on families of origin: parents, siblings, aunts, uncles, cousins. We bring deep histories to these relationships which can complicate our political divisions even further.

      <link>https://shows.acast.com/pantsuit-politics/episodes/5-things-you-need-to-know-about-the-january-6th-committee-he</link>
      <description>The Select Committee to Investigate the January 6th Attack on the United States Capitol begins public hearings on Thursday, June 9 at 8 pm EDT. Every American deserves to know the truth of what happened that day. Today, we’re here to catch you up on what the committee has done so far and why these hearings are important to every American.

The Select Committee to Investigate the January 6th Attack on the US Capitol is Unconventional, but Bipartisan

These Hearings Represent Months of Investigations and Interviews

These Committee Hearings Will be Different From the Impeachment and Supreme Court Confirmation Hearings

January 6th didn't begin or end on January 6th.

We know it's hard, but this is important.

      <title>5 Things You Need to Know About International Women's Day</title>
      <link>https://www.pantsuitpoliticsshow.com/podcast</link>
      <description>Today, March 8, is International Women’s Day. In recognition, we are breaking down the history of the holiday and sharing our thoughts on how it is and perhaps should be recognized. 


The popular origin story of International Women's Day is more myth than fact.

The real history of International Women's Day is that it began as a socialist holiday!

International Women's Day helped spark the Russian Revolution!

In the 1960s, second wave feminists adopted the day as their own.

The 2022 theme is #BreaktheBias.

      <title>5 Things You Need to Know About Inflation</title>
      <link>https://www.pantsuitpoliticsshow.com/podcast</link>
      <description>Inflation has been poking its way into our lives lately - on the political scene and as we swipe our credit cards in the check-out line. We’re breaking down the basics you need to know about inflation and how it works. 


Inflation is about a loss of money's purchasing power.

Inflation is hard to measure.

Our cost of living is rising; experts disagree about whether this is a long-term inflation problem.

Central banks are entering the chat; we will probably see higher interest rates.

Monetary policy is not science or magic.

      <title>5 Things You Need to Know About MLK Day</title>
      <link>https://shows.acast.com/pantsuit-politics/episodes/5-things-you-need-to-know-about-mlk-day</link>
      <description>We're breaking down what you need to know about the history of Martin Luther King Jr. Day and how it became a holiday in the first place. Spoiler: it wasn't an easy road. 


Martin Luther King, Jr.'s birthday is January 15th but the holiday is marked on the third Monday of every month.

The effort to make his birthday a national holiday took over three decades and an enormous amount of effort.

Stevie Wonder's Happy Birthday is about Martin Luther King, Jr!

The law passed in 1983 and signed by Reagan. The first federal holiday was in 1986.

The journey to all 50 states adopting the holiday took much longer.

      <title>5 Things You Need to Know About Section 230</title>
      <link>https://play.acast.com/s/pantsuit-politics/5thingsyouneedtoknowaboutsection230</link>
      <description>We’re breaking down what you need to know about Section 230.


We've been protecting content distributors from liability WAY before there was an internet. 

Section 230 functions as both a sword and shield and neutrality is not required.

Changes to Section 230 would never be easy but the size of the tech giants now make any reform even more difficult. 

Europe is working on their own framework. 

Regulating the internet is difficult and Section 230 is not our only tool.

      <link>https://play.acast.com/s/pantsuit-politics/infrastructureinreallife-emerginginfrastructure</link>
      <description>We've talked water, electricity, and transportation, but today's final episode of our Infrastructure In Real Life series is about the 21st century infrastructures that are still emerging. ⁠
⁠We spoke to Dr. Nicol Turner-Lee, Adie Tomer, and Kathryn de Wit about broadband and how vital it is for communities to have high-speed access. We also spoke to Savitha Moorthy and Anne Helen Petersen about why dependable childcare is essential to our economy and how we should be supporting both parents and childcare workers better. ⁠

Even though America is a very car-centric country, we're not limiting our conversation to transportation with wheels. Plus, we talk about why infrastructure projects are just so dang expensive and what that means for the innovating in this space.⁠

      <link>https://play.acast.com/s/pantsuit-politics/infrastructureinreallife-electricity</link>
      <description>When the power goes out, it's like a record scratching and pushing our normal lives into a weird pause. For most of us, we take for granted the predictability and reliability of our power supply. We count on the infrastructure that brings us energy, but that system needs attention. ⁠
⁠On this, the second episode of our Infrastructure In Real Life series, we're talking about energy, climate, jobs, and the politics of how these things intersect. We're sharing more insight from our Brookings Institute friends and can't wait to hear what you think, too. ⁠⁠

      <link>https://play.acast.com/s/pantsuit-politics/infrastructureinreallife-water</link>
      <description>It's here! Today is the first day of our Infrastructure In Real Life series! ⁠
We're talking about water - drinking water, waste water, storm water. How it gets where we want it and how we keep it safe and clean. We spoke to local experts like Dr. Crystal Tulley-Cordova of the Navajo Nation and John Hodges of Paducah, KY. We also talked to Adie Tomer and Joseph Kane from the Brookings Institute to get a big-picture perspective on how water infrastructure works. ⁠

For today’s show, though, we’re answer questions about our families, our beauty routines, food, jobs, dreams, travel, and the Free Brittany movement. It’s quite the range.

      <description>We were thrilled to talk with Senator Elizabeth Warren this week. We chatted about how to respond when people accuse Democrats of being socialist, why childcare and caregiving in general are such important pieces of economic success, and why you - yes, you! - give her hope to keep at the work of democracy.

      <description>We share our reactions to the first presidential debate which was....um...messy, to say the least. We talk about why we think it went down the way it did, the moments that stood out to us, what it can tell us about the state of the race, and what is giving us hope in the face of it all.

      <title>Five Things to Know About the American Disabilities Act</title>
      <link>https://play.acast.com/s/pantsuit-politics/fivethingstoknowabouttheamericandisabilitiesact</link>
      <description>In honor of the 30th anniversary of the American Disabilities Act (ADA), we break down five things you need to know about this historic legislation. On Tuesday, we'll be back with our thoughts and shared experiences from people directly affected by this law.


It took decades of thousands of people working locally to pass the ADA 

Defining "disability" under the ADA is very fact-intensive

The ADA helped bring about massive changes

But we have a long way to go.

There are many ways you can work toward disability justice.

      <title>The Personal Is Political</title>
      <link>https://play.acast.com/s/pantsuit-politics/thepersonalispolitical</link>
      <description>Several of our listeners have asked us to discuss our views on American obstetrics and birth. Today, we start that conversation and discuss the impact of U.S. birth practices on health care costs and gender equality. In the Pearls, we talk about Congress's efforts to combat the heroin epidemic and the legalization of marijuana. We also discuss the Obama administration's guidance to schools on restroom access. Finally, in the Heels, we go full MOM and discuss minivans vs. SUVs.

      <title>Five Things You Need to Know About Medicare for All</title>
      <link>https://play.acast.com/s/pantsuit-politics/fivethingsyouneedtoknowaboutmedicareforall</link>
      <description>What You Need to Know About Medicare for All:

Medicare: minus the "All" (02:19)

Medicare is popular because it touches so many Americans. (09:09) Currently, 44 million beneficiaries—some 15 percent of the U.S. population—are enrolled in the Medicare program. Enrollment is expected to rise to 79 million by 2030. Only one in 10 beneficiaries relies solely on the Medicare program for health care coverage.


Medicare for All is not really Medicare and it's not one thing. (14:10)

The cost of these plans is very, very high. (17:24)

The Taiwanese health care system is the closest equivalent which is why you hear so much about it. (21:38)

      <title>Episode of the Year: What You Need to Know about Abortion Law</title>
      <link>https://play.acast.com/s/pantsuit-politics/episodeoftheyear-whatyouneedtoknowaboutabortionlaw</link>
      <description>After polling our listeners, you have selected our 2019 Episode of the Year! Today, we're replaying our policy set from May about abortion law. You'll hear our Five Things You Need to Know About Abortion Law followed by our conversation about the complexities and nuances surrounding this issue.
Thanks to everyone who voted; we know abortion is a tough topic, so it speaks well of our community that you all were and continue to be so ready to engage with it. 
Five Things to Know About Abortion Law:

Abortion has a long emotional history in the US that Roe vs. Wade didn't stop.

Ohio, Mississippi, Kentucky, and Georgia have passed "heart beat bills".

Heartbeat bills and outright bans on abortion in all circumstances are surging in popularity, despite the fact that public opinion is largely more nuanced about abortion.

Stare decisions recently took a hit on the Supreme Court. 

Kentucky's law has already been struck down in court. Mississippi and Ohio's are already being challenged. Georgia and Alabama laws are also expected to be challenged.

2. Union membership peaked in the mid-20th century but struggled with racist and sexist policies as well as corruption within the leadership and anti-union government policies. (11:10)
3. As private union membership began to decrease, public service unions began to grow. (17:57)
4. We are also seeing the rise of organized action beyond the public sector as well. (20:04)
5. There is also a rise of collective action inside tech about both worker issues and societal issues. (21:46)

3. For most of our history, border deportations were pretty informal if not absent. (14:20)
4. The Trump administration does not believe the U.S. should welcome the persecuted or oppressed. (18:57)

What is the Irish backstop and why is it complicating things?

      <title>2020 Candidates, Rachel Held Evans, and Our Journey on LGBTQ Rights</title>
      <link>https://play.acast.com/s/pantsuit-politics/2020candidates-rachelheldevans-andourjourneyonlgbtqrights</link>
      <description>We start by talking about developments in the 2020 field, including the addition of  Mark Charles,  Kirsten Gillibrand's failure to launch, and security risks exemplified by what happened to Kamala Harris. We also share our heartbreak over  the shooting in Virginia Beach and ponder President Trump's state visit to the United Kingdom. 
For Compliment the Other Side, Beth honors the work of  Democrats in Connecticut who are working on a new budget package. 
In our main segment, we respond to listener Cody's message about Pride Month. We share our personal journeys in relation to LGBTQ rights and how we got to the positions we hold now.
Finally, we reflect again on the life and legacy of Rachel Held Evans and what an honor it was to be at her funeral this weekend. It was truly a sacred experience and we are so grateful to have known her. We encourage you to take the time to watch the funeral service yourself.

      <title>5 Things You Need to Know About Abortion Law</title>
      <link>https://play.acast.com/s/pantsuit-politics/5thingsyouneedtoknowaboutabortionlaw</link>
      <description>This week kicked off our annual Patreon drive! Visit our Patreon page to become part of the incredible community that supports our work and get access to exciting bonus content and perks. 
Today, we're sharing five things you need to know about abortion law in advance of a deeper conversation about recent events on Tuesday's episode. 

Abortion has a long emotional history in the US that Roe vs. Wade didn't stop.

Ohio, Mississippi, Kentucky, and Georgia have passed "heart beat bills".

Heartbeat bills and outright bans on abortion in all circumstances are surging in popularity, despite the fact that public opinion is largely more nuanced about abortion.

Stare decisions recently took a hit on the Supreme Court. 

Kentucky's law has already been struck down in court. Mississippi and Ohio's are already being challenged. Georgia and Alabama laws are also expected to be challenged.

Resources on Abortion Law

 New poll finds "dramatic shift" on abortion attitudes

Gallup polls on abortion

 Abortion would automatically be illegal in these states if Roe v. Wade is overturned

 Abortion Opponents Think They’re Winning. Have They Set Themselves Up to Fail?

‘The Time Is Now’: States Are Rushing to Restrict Abortion, or to Protect It

Today, we're sharing five things you need to know about abortion law in advance of a deeper conversation about recent events on Tuesday's episode. 

Abortion has a long emotional history in the US that Roe vs. Wade didn't stop.

Ohio, Mississippi, Kentucky, and Georgia have passed "heart beat bills".

Heartbeat bills and outright bans on abortion in all circumstances are surging in popularity, despite the fact that public opinion is largely more nuanced about abortion.

Stare decisions recently took a hit on the Supreme Court. 

Kentucky's law has already been struck down in court. Mississippi and Ohio's are already being challenged. Georgia and Alabama laws are also expected to be challenged.

      <title>Contempt, Military Action, School Shootings, and Drugs</title>
      <link>https://play.acast.com/s/pantsuit-politics/contempt-militaryaction-schoolshootings-anddrugs</link>
      <description>It's been a diverse news week and our conversation in this episode reflects that. We talk about Congress holding Attorney General Bill Barr in contempt and where things may be going next on the investigation/impeachment front. We also talk about the multitude of countries this with which this administration seems interested in going to war. 
We share our heartbreak over the school shootings this week and the hero students who sacrificed themselves for their classmates.
Finally, we have a conversation about drugs. Denver has decided to decriminalize psychedelics and Sarah is here for it. Beth, not so much. What we are both here for is a serious conversation about pharmaceutical advertising, something President Trump has been tweeting about lately.
We want to hear your opinions! Please take a couple minutes and  fill out our 2019 listener survey. We are thinking big about the future of the podcast and and we can't possibly continue down that road without your guidance.

      <link>https://play.acast.com/s/pantsuit-politics/rachelheldevans-middleeasternconflict-billbarr-andabigideacatch-up</link>
      <description>In our first segment, we share our grief over the death of Rachel Held Evans. We also talk about conflict in the Middle East (in both Gaza and  Iran) and  the continuing drama between Attorney General Bill Barr and Congress. In the main segment, we have a conversation about some big ideas that have been floating around the internet lately including the Bring Down the House documentary on Netflix, women  working long hours and  experiencing burnout in the workplace,  tragedy, and  empathy.

      <link>https://play.acast.com/s/pantsuit-politics/themuellerreport-churchtragedies-andmiddleeasterndiplomacy</link>

We also talk about Iran, John Bolton, and what's going on with our Middle Eastern diplomacy. During Compliment the Other Side, Beth compliments  Minnesota women working on climate change and Sarah compliments Mitt Romney.

      <description>We discuss the impending release of the Mueller report, President Trump's plan to send immigrants to sanctuary cities, and the continued controversy around Ilhan Omar's comments about 9/11. We also check in on the 2020 primary, including thoughts on how the coverage of Mayor Pete Buttigieg contrasts with that of the women candidates. Then, we share our conversation with Marjorie Skiba, an American expat living in Denmark; she shares what it's like to move from America to a socialist country. Plus, Beth shares what she's ready and Sarah talks Game of Thrones. 
Compliment the Other Side:  Texas State Rep. Jeff Leach and  Nevada State Senators Nicole Canizzaro and Julia Ratti

      <description>We follow-up on our conversation about Joe Biden from Friday's episode. His actions over the weekend have shifted Beth's position a bit. We also discuss the end of Kirstjen Nielsen's tenure at the Department of Homeland Security and Pete Buttigieg's comments on faith and morality. In our main segment, we share our conversation with Senator Maggie Hassan from our live event in at South Church in Portsmouth, NH. To finish out, we share the Q&amp;A segment from the event.

      <title>The Barr Letter, Bad Press, and Reaching Political Parity (with Kelly Werder)</title>
      <link>https://play.acast.com/s/pantsuit-politics/thebarrletter-badpress-andreachingpoliticalparity-withkellywerder-</link>
      <description>The response to the Barr letter continues and the fight to have the full Mueller report released continues to escalate. We discuss that and why President Trump seems intent on wasting this positive news cycle. Then, we're joined by Kelly Werder to discuss 50/50 by 2020, a bipartisan political action committee determined to see gender parity in our elected officials. They are sponsoring the Courage to Run 5K across the country on April 13. We're extra fond of them because our book is their first pick for their book club!

      <title>5 Things You Need to Know About Criminal Justice Reform</title>
      <link>https://play.acast.com/s/pantsuit-politics/5thingsyouneedtoknowaboutcriminaljusticereform</link>
      <description>March is National Criminal Justice Month. Plus, criminal justice reform is one of the few pieces of major legislation that has been passed with bipartisan consensus under the Trump administration. We'll be talking more about this issue on Tuesday's episode. Today, though, we're getting you ready for that conversation by sharing five things you need to know about criminal justice reform. 
The cost of the criminal justice system can begin before a person is every convicted of a crime.

The Bail Project

 How the bail system in the US became such a mess — and how it can be fixed

 Bail reform, which could save millions of unconvicted people from jail, explained

 The Economics of Bail and Pretrial Detention

Once you're in the court system, the process is difficult and representation is hard to come by.

 Plead guilty, go home. Plead not guilty, stay in jail.

The Trial Penalty: The Sixth Amendment Right To Trial on the Verge of Extinction and How To Save It

 Overworked and Underpaid: America's Public Defended Crisis

If you plea or are convicted, sentencing is another layer of inequity.

 The First Step Act, explained

 Trump administration looks to Texas as it pushes a criminal justice reform bill

A prison sentence is often just the beginning of the punishment which can continue far beyond the prison walls.

 Is it a poll tax if felons have to pay court costs and fees to regain voting rights?

 Invisible Punishment: The Collateral Consequences of Mass Imprisonment

Let's talk about the death penalty.

 Death Penalty Fast Facts

 Nine facts about monetary sanctions in the criminal justice system

      <title>Beto, Manafort, the College Admissions Scandal, and Understanding Antisemitism (with Deborah Lipstadt)</title>
      <link>https://play.acast.com/s/pantsuit-politics/beto-manafort-thecollegeadmissionsscandal-andunderstandingantisemitism-withdeborahlipstadt-</link>
      <description>In today's episode, we're joined by Professor Deborah Lipstadt, an expert in Holocaust studies. Professor Lipstadt helps us understand the controversies surrounding the Women's March and Representative Omar, and she advises us on how to thoughtfully discuss and critique America's relationship with Israel. 
But first, we dive into the week's news. Paul Manafort  received 43 additional months in prison from Judge Amy Berman Jackson, and he's been  indicted by Manhattan's District Attorney on state charges. 
After great anticipation, Beto O'Rourke has announced his candidacy for the Democratic Party's nomination. We're a little confused by his splashy  Vanity Fair rollout and  campaign announcement video. 
We also talk about  Operation Varsity Blues and the state of college admissions, wealth, and parenting in America. Sarah recommended these three episodes of Revisionist History: Carlos Doesn't Remember, Food Fight, and My Little Hundred Million.
Thanks again to Professor Lipstadt for joining us in conversation. She is the Dorot Professor of Modern Jewish History and Holocaust Studies at Emory University. Her books include The Eichmann Trial, Denial; Holocaust History on Trial (a National Jewish Book Award-winner); Denying the Holocaust: the Growing Assault on Truth and Memory; and Beyond Belief: the American Press and the Coming of the Holocaust. She lives in Atlanta. Her latest book is Antisemitism: Here and Now. Rachel Weisz portrayed Professor Lipstadt in the 2016 film Denial.

      <itunes:subtitle>Professor Deborah Lipstadt helps us understand anti-Semitism</itunes:subtitle>
      <itunes:summary>In today's episode, we're joined by Professor Deborah Lipstadt, an expert in Holocaust studies. Professor Lipstadt helps us understand the controversies surrounding the Women's March and Representative Omar, and she advises us on how to thoughtfully discuss and critique America's relationship with Israel. 
But first, we dive into the week's news. Paul Manafort  received 43 additional months in prison from Judge Amy Berman Jackson, and he's been  indicted by Manhattan's District Attorney on state charges. 
After great anticipation, Beto O'Rourke has announced his candidacy for the Democratic Party's nomination. We're a little confused by his splashy  Vanity Fair rollout and  campaign announcement video. 
We also talk about  Operation Varsity Blues and the state of college admissions, wealth, and parenting in America. Sarah recommended these three episodes of Revisionist History: Carlos Doesn't Remember, Food Fight, and My Little Hundred Million.
Thanks again to Professor Lipstadt for joining us in conversation. She is the Dorot Professor of Modern Jewish History and Holocaust Studies at Emory University. Her books include The Eichmann Trial, Denial; Holocaust History on Trial (a National Jewish Book Award-winner); Denying the Holocaust: the Growing Assault on Truth and Memory; and Beyond Belief: the American Press and the Coming of the Holocaust. She lives in Atlanta. Her latest book is Antisemitism: Here and Now. Rachel Weisz portrayed Professor Lipstadt in the 2016 film Denial.

      <link>https://play.acast.com/s/pantsuit-politics/2020dreams-paulmanafort-andelizabethwarrentakesontechgiants</link>
      <description>We recorded a live episode in Sarah's hometown, Paducah, Kentucky. Our comments about President Trump signing Bibles led us to a bigger conversation about what kind of presidential candidate we need in 2020. Then, we discuss Paul Manafort's prison sentence. In the main segment, we discuss Elizabeth Warren's desire to break up the tech giants and why we expect her ideas to gain traction. Outside of politics, we discuss Top Chef and Captain Marvel.

      <title>National Emergencies, LGBTQ Rights, and the Green New Deal</title>
      <link>https://play.acast.com/s/pantsuit-politics/nationalemergencies-lgbtqrights-andthegreennewdeal</link>
      <description>We discuss the president's choice to declare a national emergency and what that looks like in the context of past emergencies. During Compliment the Other Side, Beth praises Mama Bears who are welcoming LGBTQ children into their communities and cautions about discriminatory legislation cropping up in state legislatures; Sarah is excited to see Republican Bill Weld considering a primary challenge to President Trump. 
In our main segment, we break down the proposed Green New Deal and our different perspectives on it. Outside of politics, we're talking The Umbrella Academy on Netflix, reusable paper towels, and makeup. 
Recommended Resources:

      <itunes:summary>We discuss the president's choice to declare a national emergency and what that looks like in the context of past emergencies. During Compliment the Other Side, Beth praises Mama Bears who are welcoming LGBTQ children into their communities and cautions about discriminatory legislation cropping up in state legislatures; Sarah is excited to see Republican Bill Weld considering a primary challenge to President Trump. 
In our main segment, we break down the proposed Green New Deal and our different perspectives on it. Outside of politics, we're talking The Umbrella Academy on Netflix, reusable paper towels, and makeup.

      <link>https://play.acast.com/s/pantsuit-politics/jeffbezos-justinfairfax-andallthedemocraticwomen</link>
      <description>We touch briefly on the looming return of the government shutdown. Then, we talk about lots of men in power who are in varying levels of trouble: Jeff Bezos, Ralph Northam, and Justin Fairfax. In our main segment, we talk about the Democratic women running for president and whether or not media coverage of them has been sexist. Included in that discussion are our thoughts on Amy Klobuchar's staffing issues. Outside of politics, Beth watched Black Mirror and Sarah talks about her mother-son book club.

 Congress Overhauls Sexual Harassment Policies

 Bump Stocks Banned

Cultural Good News:

 Falling Murder Rate

 Women-Led Movies Succeed at the Box Office

 Nobel Prize Awarded for Cancer Immunotherapy

 Hope in the Face of Climate Change

Communities of Faith Protecting Others:

 Rings of Peace Around Synagogues

 Muslims Raise Money for Pittsburgh Synagogue

 Dutch Vigil Continues

      <title>What Nuance and Moderation Mean To Us (with Christina Dalcher)</title>
      <link>https://play.acast.com/s/pantsuit-politics/whatnuanceandmoderationmeantous-withchristinadalcher-</link>
      <description>This week's news has galvanized a new wave of conversations about what's at stake in the political landscape. We discuss the situation surrounding Jamal Khashoggi's death and The New York Times article questioning the place of nuance in our modern culture. Considering our whole deal is nuance, we have an extended conversation about what nuance and moderation mean to us and how power dynamics matter as a part of that conversation. 
Then, we share Beth's conversation with author Christina Dalcher who wrote Vox, a novel about women's voices being taken away - literally. They talk about how feminism and modern politics did and did not influence Dalcher's work.

      <title>Climate Change, Saudi-US Relations, A Presidential Op-Ed, and Healthcare Policy Logistics</title>
      <link>https://play.acast.com/s/pantsuit-politics/climatechange-saudi-usrelations-apresidentialop-ed-andhealthcarepolicylogistics</link>
      <description>Hurricane Michael has brutalized the Florida panhandle, and journalist Jamal Khashoggi disappeared after entering a Saudi consulate in Turkey. In the midst of these crises, the President is focused on campaigning. We discuss the news and his USA Today op-ed about American healthcare and the partisan divide. That discussion leads us into a deep dive about the practicality of changing the structure of our national healthcare.

      <description>Brett Kavanaugh is now a justice on the Supreme Court, and international scientists have issued a landmark report on climate change.

      <description>Just when we think we've exhausted our emotions over the Kavanaugh nomination...another day, another news cycle. We talk through some of the reasons this process is hitting so close to home for us. We also discuss the deeply important The New York Times story about the Trump family and tax fraud. Then, we share our conversation with Sarah Riggs Amico, who is running to become Georgia's Lt. Governor. We hope you will be as excited by her balance, nuance, and passion for policy as we were.

      <description>Brett Kavanaugh's confirmation continues to be a source of conflict across the country. We are angry, discouraged, and frustrated by the narrative surrounding this story. Thankfully, this episode is balanced out by Beth's uplifting conversation with Jessica Morse, who is running for Congress in California's 4th District.

      <title>9/11: How Did We Miss This?</title>
      <link>https://play.acast.com/s/pantsuit-politics/9-11-howdidwemissthis-</link>
      <description>One of the hardest questions to grapple with about 9/11 also sounds like the simplest: How'd we miss this? We discuss the history of the FBI and the CIA and their circumstances leading up to September 11. We also do a lightning round and cover Omarosa, the Unite the Right rally, Trump's latest tweets, and the pilot who stole and crashed a plane in Seattle. We end the episode with a discussion of Hannah Gadsby and tension in comedy.

      <title>9/11: A New Kind of Terrorism</title>
      <link>https://play.acast.com/s/pantsuit-politics/9-11-anewkindofterrorism</link>
      <description>It's impossible to understand 9/11 and the US response to it without knowing how and why al-Qaeda formed. For Part Two of our 9/11 series, we do a deep dive into recent Middle Eastern history and what led to the creation and successes of al-Qaeda and Osama bin Laden. We also talk about recent media conflicts, concerns around campaign finance, and share our weekly gratitude moments.
Media Conflicts:

 Sarah Jeong and The New York Times Racism Row

 The New York Times Stands By Sarah Jeong

 Trump Attacks the Media...Again

 Trump Will Have Blood on His Hands

Crossroads and Campaign Finance:

      <title>Foreign Policy Fiascos and Carri Hicks for State Senate</title>
      <link>https://play.acast.com/s/pantsuit-politics/foreignpolicyfiascosandcarrihicksforstatesenate</link>
      <description>The odd grammatical clarifications President Trump and the White House keep offering are dominating headlines, but the policy and actions behind them are far more concerning. We return to our conversation about confronting strangers after so much great listener feedback. We also talk to Carri Hicks, who is running for State Senate in Oklahoma.

More from Carri Hicks:

Why we need education funding: Last year Oklahoma approved over 2,000 emergency certifications to fill teaching jobs. This has been done in an attempt to keep schools open as we are in dire need of teachers. However, it gives the false impression that everything is fine in education because school is in session. Clearly there is a large problem when 50,000 children were educated by someone other than a certified teacher last year. The number is expected to rise again this year.

Why she decided now was the time to run: After the defeat of the penny cent sales tax, I took many personal days to advocate on behalf of my students at the capital. I met with Senator Mark Allen who is on the education committee (and will be on the ballot in Nov.). As I introduced myself and explained how many students I had in my classes at the time, 28, he called me a liar. He further went on to explain that they knew the average class size in Oklahoma is 16, so that I was clearly not being truthful. I have taught for 7 years and have never had less than 23 students. This interaction led me to believe not only were lawmakers misinformed about the needs in public schools, but were unwilling to hear what they were. Since these are the decision makers affecting my profession and millions of innocent children, I knew now was the time to give teachers, and education a loud voice inside our state government.

      <description>2,977 people were killed by 19 al Qaeda-backed terrorists on September 11, 2001. Today, as immigration and travel bans dominate the news, we begin a several month exploration of what that day has meant for American government, agencies, policies and culture.
We start the show lightning round to cover the this week's headlines. We're also sharing our first gratitude moment, a new regular segment in our Tuesday episodes.

      <link>https://play.acast.com/s/pantsuit-politics/separatingfamiliesattheborderandimmigrationpolicy</link>
      <description>It's being reported that 2000 children have been separated from their families at the US border between April 19 and May 31. We discuss our perspectives on this horrifying policy as well as reflect on how we view immigration to the United States. We also discuss the recent Supreme Court decision on gerrymandering, immigration issues in the European Union, and our weekly Pride Month moment.

      <title>Tension around the G7, Diplomats in China, and the House GOP</title>
      <link>https://play.acast.com/s/pantsuit-politics/tensionaroundtheg7-diplomatsinchina-andthehousegop</link>
      <description>There's so much tension in the news this week. International leaders are unhappy with the United States over tariffs, leading to concerns about the ability of the G7 to issue a joint statement. American diplomats in China are being brought home after experiencing neurological symptoms caused by sustained and mysterious sounds. And House GOP leaders are trying to quell and immigration revolt among their members. We discuss all of this, the idea of negative capability, and listener feedback on language as privilege.

      <title>SCOTUS, Military Cuts, Pride Month, and the New American Aristocracy</title>
      <link>https://play.acast.com/s/pantsuit-politics/scotus-militarycuts-pridemonth-andthenewamericanaristocracy</link>
      <description>We've discovered that it's hard to talk about what you think is important without talking about what everyone is talking about, so we set a timer to tick through the public frenzy stories of the week: the pardon memo, Roseanne and Samantha Bee, and the Bill Clinton interview. Then, we get down to business, talking about contemplated cuts to U.S. Special Forces in Africa and the Niger report, the impact of trade tariffs on America's alliances in the world, and news that Facebook had partnerships with 60 device makers involve data-sharing. 
Sarah shares a quick update on the Supreme Court's decision in the Masterpiece Cakeshop case. 
To celebrate Pride Month, we're highlighting the accomplishments of LGBTQ leaders every Tuesday. Today, we feature Annise Parker, former mayor of Houston and President and CEO of the Victory Fund. 
For our main segment, we discuss Matthew Stewart's "The Birth of the New American Aristocracy," income equality, insecurity, and living in relationship with each other. 
Outside of politics, Beth is thinking about music and Sarah about summer family fun.

      <title>The Trump Administration's Zero Tolerance Policy on Immigration, the Devastation in Puerto Rico Following Hurricane Maria, and the Volcker Rule</title>
      <link>https://play.acast.com/s/pantsuit-politics/thetrumpadministrationszerotolerancepolicyonimmigration-thedevastationinpuertoricofollowinghurricanemaria-andthevolckerrule</link>
      <description>We talk about the social media outrage machine in the wake of stories that families are being separated at the border, ICE has abused its power, and the Office of Refugee Resettlement has been unable to verify the status of children placed with sponsor families. In the #wherearethechildren outrage, we are missing key policy and enforcement issues that could help improve outcomes for immigrant families and Americans in the long run. 
We also discuss the devastating aftermath of Hurricane Maria in Puerto Rico and the historic failure of our government to mitigate the storm's impact. 
Finally, we talk about proposed changes to the Volcker Rule, a financial regulation that was implemented as part of the Dodd-Frank efforts to prevent another economic collapse because of speculative investments by banks.

      <title>Women in the Freshman Class of the Virginia Legislature</title>
      <link>https://play.acast.com/s/pantsuit-politics/womeninthefreshmanclassofthevirginialegislature</link>
      <description>The Virginia House of Delegates seated a record number of women in January, and those women aren't messing around. We attended The Blue Victory Dinner in Arlington, Virginia and spoke to some of them about their successful campaigns and the importance of women in political leadership. 
Thanks to our sponsors: SmartNews and Brandless.
The Delegates:
Jennifer Carroll Foy, 2nd district: A public defender, Jennifer is a graduate of the third class of female cadets to ever attend the Virginia Military Institute. She has a masters from VSU, a JD from the Thomas Jefferson School of Law, and twin boys, to whom she gave birth while on the campaign trail.
Wendy Gooditis, 10th district: An educator and local business operator, Wendy co-founded the Clarke County chapter of Indivisible following the November 2016 election. Her successful 2017 run was her first electoral campaign, which focused on education, jobs, health and the environment.
Danica Roem, 13th District: An award-winning journalist and Manassas native, Danica is the first transgender politician to be elected to Virginia's General Assembly. She out-raised her Republican opponent--a 25-year incumbent --by 5 to 1 with a campaign focused on economic and transportation issues.
Elizabeth Guzman, 31st district: A Peruvian-American public administrator and social worker, Elizabeth came to the United States as a single mom looking for a better future for her eldest child. She delivered the Spanish response to the 2018 State of the Union address at the invitation of House Speaker Nancy Pelosi.
Kathy Tran, 42nd district: Kathy is the first Vietnamese-American to be elected to the General Assembly and a former federal government employee. She came to the United States as a refugee and has spent her career advocating for workers, working families, and immigrants.
Hala Ayala, 51st district: A public servant and cyber security expert, Hala is one of the first Latinas to be elected to the General Assembly. A former vice president of the National Organization of Women (Virginia chapter), Hala has also served on former Governor McAuliffe's Council of Women and is an advocate for women and families.
Karrie Delaney, 67th district: A long-time local civic leader, counselor for sexual assault survivors, and advocate against human trafficking, Karrie beat a four-term Republican incumbent with a campaign focused on economic growth &amp; innovation, education and health care.

      <title>The Democratic Memo, Mueller's latest moves, #metoo at CPAC, and your thoughts on the gun debate</title>
      <link>https://play.acast.com/s/pantsuit-politics/thedemocraticmemo-muellerslatestmoves-metooatcpac-andyourthoughtsonthegundebate</link>
      <description>Critical discussions in this country continue to develop about election interference, #metoo, and gun violence. 
Thanks to our sponsors for today's podcast: ThirdLove and Martha Stewart Wine Company. 
Beth summarizes her thoughts on the Democrats on the House Intelligence Committee response to the Republican memo on the Russian investigation as well as her new found commitment to primary sources. She also shared her thoughts on the recent indictments and movement of Robert Mueller and his team. We also talk about Mona Charen's #metoo moment at CPAC.

      <description>Students across the U.S. are demanding action to prevent future gun violence, and Robert Mueller has issued an extensive indictment related to Russian interference in the 2016 election. We discuss the week’s news and talk with Tabitha Isner about her run for Congress. 
Thanks to our sponsors for today's podcast: Tamara Mellon and Martha Stewart Wine Company. 
Students from Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School are  leading a nationwide movement, demanding that policymakers address gun violence in schools. We discuss their activism and the need for reasonable progress and compromise. 
Special Counsel Robert Mueller, in a 37-page indictment, has described Russian interference in the 2016 presidential election. We discuss the indictment and updates regarding  Michael Flynn,  Rick Gates, and  Richard Pinedo. 
Sarah compliments  Congressman Carlos Curbelo for his remarks following the Parkland shooting. Beth compliments the  Albuquerque, New Mexico City Council. 
We talk with Tabitha Isner and her campaign manager, Megan Skipper, about her run for Congress as a Democrat in Alabama. You can find Tabitha on her website, Twitter, Instagram, and Facebook. 
We end with what's on our minds outside politics. Beth is thinking about her bucket list. Sarah is excited about her friend's new children's album.

      <description>On January 23, there was a school shooting in our home state. On February 14,  17 people were killed in yet another. 
If you are ready to take action, consider doing one of the following things: 

text ACT to 64433 to join Moms Demand Action 

host a conversation in your community about the threat of violence (agree in advance about whether you'd like to discuss gun control provisions or not) 

contact your elected official to express your insistence on measures to combat gun violence  

Post-note: 
At the top of the episode, we cite the statistic from EveryTown that there have been 18 school shootings in 2018. This statistic has been criticized today by, among others, the  Washington Post. EveryTown uses an expansive definition of school shooting to encompass every time a gun has discharged live rounds on school property. We encourage you to judge the meaning and importance of this statistic for yourself.

      <description>It’s hard to keep up with the memos, interviews, and leaks coming out of Washington DC so we take a painstaking look at what we do and don’t know about the memo and the Mueller investigation  Thanks to our sponsor: Martha Stewart Wine and TomboyX Underwear We discuss the resignation of Rob Porter and the President's wholly unacceptable response to the accusations of domestic violence against Porter. We also talk about the Olympics: North Korea's participation, the ugly part of the event, and why we keep watching.  To compliment individuals who aren't members of our respective parties, Beth compliments the Democratic candidate in her home district, Patti Piatt. Sarah compliments Rand Paul on his continued stance against deficit spending.  For our main segment, business journalist Heidi Moore joins us for a discussion of the stock market, the economy, and why debt colors Donald Trump's opinion of it all.  We end with a discussion on what's on our minds outside politics. Beth loved Lady Bird and Victoria &amp; Abdul. Sarah loved The Power and Sing, Unburied, Sing. Heidi shares her love for The Good Place and Call Me By Your Name.  Hosted on Acast.

      <link>https://play.acast.com/s/pantsuit-politics/race-gender-themilitary-religion-partisanship-androckets</link>
      <description>The United States continues to grapple with cultural tension over race, the military, and religion. We talk about the latest news around these topics and listener feedback in today’s episode.
The  death of Black Lives Matter activist Muhiyidin d’Baha and the vandalism of a Confederate monument in  Louisville, Kentucky, have us thinking about continued racial tensions in the United States. At the same, a message from our listener, Karen, and Sarah's experience passing a Fairness Ordinance in her city have us thinking about tension around Christianity. That tension is not helped by an  evangelical minister who made headlines this week by claiming that Christians don't get the flu. 
The President has expressed interest in a  military parade. Sarah has a great solution to dealing with this. 
We shared feedback from Michelle regarding #HearHerHarvard and the culture on Harvard's campus. We also discuss Melissa's message sharing her desire for a more balanced conversation -- one of many messages questioning Beth's political perspective. 
Finally, we discuss  SpaceX's launch of the Falcon Heavy.

      <link>https://play.acast.com/s/pantsuit-politics/-releasethememo-themuellerinvestigation-andumas-metoomoment</link>
      <description>It’s hard to keep up with the memos, interviews, and leaks coming out of Washington DC so we take a painstaking look at what we do and don’t know about the memo and the Mueller investigation  Thanks to our sponsor: Casper Mattress First up, we discuss how we think about the economy as we approach another government shutdown this week, including whether or not we should pour more money into the Department of Defense considering the results of the latest audit.   We discuss Uma's #metoo moment and why the coverage became the story.  To compliment individuals who aren't members of our respective parties, Sarah praises recently retiring and suddenly refreshingly honest Representative Trey Gowdyl. Beth compliments Senator Chris Coons on his work on a bipartisan immigration bill.  For our main segment, we start with a mini-primer on the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act ("FISA"), which was enacted in 1978 to protect Americans’ privacy in the midst of counter-terrorism efforts.  A law enforcement training white paper helped us significantly in understanding key provisions of FISA. FISA was enacted to limit the presidents' power and to create a judicially-manageable standard for issuing warrants in national security investigations. 
The key provisions of FISA were: 

Non-criminal electronic surveillance can only occur for the purpose of collecting foreign intelligence and foreign counterintelligence

Foreign powers and agents of foreign powers could be targeted for electronic surveillance (foreign powers and agents of foreign powers are defined in the statute—explicitly says “non US persons” — US persons are citizens, legal permanent residents, US corporations, unincorporated associates with a substantial number of members who are citizens or lawful permanent residents) 

The government needs probable cause to conduct surveillance (and set a probable cause standard)

Established foreign intelligence surveillance courts (FISC) at the district and appellate levels to review applications for warrants under the act

The government can only conduct electronic surveillance in the US for the purpose of collecting foreign intelligence or foreign counterintelligence pursuant to a warrant issued by a FISC or in an emergency with approval from the attorney general provided that a warrant is sought within 24 hours 

In 1995, FISA was expanded to include physical searches (which meant a recognition that the president’s power to order physical searches in the interest of nat security is limited) In 1998, provisions were added on pen registers and trap and trace - includes phone calls, email, and all electronic forms of communication. These provisions specifically prohibit investigation of US persons for activities protected by the 1st...

      <title>The Campaign to Recall Judge Persky, Conspiracy Theories, and the Physical Realties of Gun Violence</title>
      <link>https://play.acast.com/s/pantsuit-politics/thecampaigntorecalljudgepersky-conspiracytheories-andthephysicalrealtiesofgunviolence</link>
      <description>California voters will soon decide whether to recall the judge who sentenced Brock Turner, and conspiracy theories seem to be taking over our public discussions. We’re talking about institutional trust and accountability as well as discussing the brutal realities of gun violence in today’s episode.
Thanks to  TomboyX for sponsoring today's podcast. 
We discuss the campaign to recall Judge Persky,  how elections impact the judiciary, and the punitive side of rape culture. 
We also talk about "The Storm" and how the  Nunes memo is mainstreaming conspiracy theories. 
Finally, we talk with Dr. Sterling Haring about  his experience treating victims of the Marshall County High School shooting. Content warning: Our conversation with Dr. Haring includes some upsetting and graphic information about how bullets impact human bodies.

      <title>Bill Clinton, George W. Bush, and Moral Authority</title>
      <link>https://play.acast.com/s/pantsuit-politics/billclinton-georgew.bush-andmoralauthority</link>
      <description>John Adams said that “because power corrupts, society’s demands for moral authority and character increase as the importance of the position increases.” Every headline in the past week has us thinking about abuse of power and the moral authority required to stand up to that abuse. In this week's show, we discuss the growing violence in Afghanistan and the terrible attacks in Kabul. We also ponder the motivations behind President Trump's solar tariffs. In our #metoo moment, we talk about the #HearHerHarvard movement at Harvard University and the criticism of Judge Aquilina and her decisions involving the Nassar trial. We also discuss the economic motivations behind the recent Russian protests and why economics always becomes our central concern.   To compliment individuals who aren't members of our respective parties, Sarah praises Representative Will Hurd and his bipartisan immigration bill. Beth shares the encouraging reactions of several Arizona state legislators in the face of ugly immigration protests.  For our main segment, we discuss the moral authority and the arguments surrounding the presidencies of Bill Clinton and George W. Bush. Beth shares her journey with John McCain as a presidential candidate and we ponder the growing disgust among the moderate middle at the current state of politics in our country.  We end with a discussion on what's on our minds outside politics - specifically when we sleep - as Beth shares a common dream she has and Sarah worries about the epidemic of teeth clenching among Americans.  Hosted on Acast.

We also discuss the economic motivations behind <a href="https://www.npr.org/sections/thetwo-way/2018/01/29/581505309/protests-across-russia-call-for-boycott-of-march-18-presidential-vote">the recent Russian protests</a> and why economics always becomes our central concern.   To compliment individuals who aren't members of our respective parties, Sarah praises <a href="https://www.cbsnews.com/video/representatives-hurd-and-aguilar-lay-out-their-bipartisan-immigration-bill/">Representative Will Hurd and his bipartisan immigration bill</a>. Beth shares <a href="https://azcapitoltimes.com/news/2018/01/26/arizona-capitol-eric-descheenie-cesar-chavez-lisette-flores-selianna-robles-katie-hobbs-tomas-robles-trump-supports-yell-illegal/">the encouraging reactions of several Arizona state legislators in the face of ugly immigration protests</a>.  For our main segment, we discuss the moral authority and the arguments surrounding the presidencies of Bill Clinton and George W. Bush. Beth shares her journey with John McCain as a presidential candidate and we ponder the growing disgust among the moderate middle at the current state of politics in our country.  We end with a discussion on what's on our minds outside politics - specifically when we sleep - as Beth shares a common dream she has and Sarah worries about the epidemic of teeth clenching among Americans. <br><p> Hosted on Acast.

      <title>Gun Violence and Activism (with Special Guest Dr. Dana Fisher)</title>
      <link>https://play.acast.com/s/pantsuit-politics/gunviolenceandactivism-withspecialguestdr.danafisher-</link>
      <description>In 1997, three of Sarah's classmates were shot and killed in the lobby of my high school. 20 years later and 30 miles away, her community is again mourning the deaths of two 15 yo high school students shot in the in the lobby of Marshall County High School. We’re thinking about activism to prevent these tragedies and talking about activism through protests with Dr. Dana Fisher.
The  Courier Journal describes the shooting at Marshall County High School in Benton, Kentucky, in excruciating detail. We discuss how we think we can break the logjam on action to do better at preventing future gun violence.
We talk with Dr. Dana Fisher about the Women's Marches and the Resistance movement in the context of sociological activism data. You can find Dr. Fisher on Twitter, at her University of Maryland website, and at the website for her eye-opening book that's being shared as she develops it.

      <title>Negotiating with Jello: What to Make of the Government Shutdown and the Next Stage of Immigration Talks</title>
      <link>https://play.acast.com/s/pantsuit-politics/negotiatingwithjello-whattomakeofthegovernmentshutdownandthenextstageofimmigrationtalks</link>
      <description>How does one negotiate with jello? We talk negotiations, compromise, and the government shutdown on today’s episode. We begin with our #metoo moment, discussing the sentencing hearing for Larry Nassar, the former physician for the U.S. Olympian gymnastics team. Judge Rosemarie Aquilina has admirably allowed survivors to speak during the hearing, and survivors like Aly Raisman have used their time to powerfully indict everyone who has been complicit in Nassar's abuse.  Next, we talk about the talks between South Korean President Moon and Kim Jong Un regarding the Olympics. We don't know what the  President's actual strategy is, but we're hoping for a productive and peaceful path forward in light of apparent cooperation around Pyeongchang.  To compliment individuals who aren't members of our respective parties, Beth celebrates the achievements of Oregon governor Kate Brown. Sarah appreciates  Senator Lindsay Graham's efforts on immigration.  For our main segment, we discuss the government shutdown -- how and  why it happened,  the costs involved, what we can expect next, and how we can productively move forward.  We end with a discussion of books and movies (which should you do first?) and Beth's favorite romantic comedies -- one of which was made better by learning that Jack Nicholson sent a check to his co-star Diane Keaton, who was underpaid.  Hosted on Acast.

      <title>The Budget, DACA, and Listener Feedback on Aziz Ansari and Grace</title>
      <link>https://play.acast.com/s/pantsuit-politics/thebudget-daca-andlistenerfeedbackonazizansariandgrace</link>
      <description>The President of the United States, through his party's website, actually gave out Fake News Awards this week. There is an epidemic of pettiness in our politics. Let's discuss. 
We discuss Congress's  inability to pass a budget and inability to do a  "deal" that the President will sign on DACA. We also talk about the  Senate Judiciary Committee hearing that devoted a sad amount of time to whether the President actually said the word "shithole."
It's difficult to know what's happening in the Mueller investigation, but we do know that  Steve Bannon has agreed to be interviewed. 
Finally, we discuss the  State of the Commonwealth given by Governor Matt Bevin in our home, Kentucky. 
We then share listener feedback and continue the conversation regarding Aziz Ansari and Grace. There are too many think pieces and opinions to link because this issue has touched such a nerve--and that's exactly why we think it's so important.

      <title>Medicaid in Kentucky, Aziz Ansari, and Immigration Policy</title>
      <link>https://play.acast.com/s/pantsuit-politics/medicaidinkentucky-azizansari-andimmigrationpolicy</link>
      <description>The news this week has been explicit — both in language and in what that language reveals. We’re discussing the President’s comments on immigration and the US’s role in the world. 
Our home state of Kentucky has been  granted a waiver to add work requirements to Medicaid. We discuss the  facts of the new program and our thoughts on what it does and doesn't accomplish. 
A babe.net piece about "Grace's" date with Aziz Ansari has fueled  controversy over the past three days. (Please note that the linked content is explicit). We discuss where #metoo stands and what lessons we can learn from the Ansari allegations. 
To compliment the other side, Sarah compliments  Representative Mia Love for her statements on President Trump's "shithole" comments. Beth compliments  Senator Dick Durbin for trying to stay focused on DACA. 
We discuss President Trump's widely-publicized comments and general attitude regarding immigration. We talk about what drives our immigration policies, the  data on the importance of immigration in the United States, and our national values. 
Outside of politics, Sarah is thinking about all of the snow in Kentucky. Beth is planning  a class on boundaries.

      <title>#Oprah2020, DACA, and a Report from the Paducah City Commission</title>
      <link>https://play.acast.com/s/pantsuit-politics/-oprah2020-daca-andareportfromthepaducahcitycommission</link>
      <description>The Briefcase is our shorter episode each week when we catch up on news and often share listener feedback. Today, we're covering a local fairness ordinance, the Oprah 2020 frenzy, and the public DACA meeting President Trump convened. 
In our first block, Sarah emotionally describes the difficulty inherent in holding public meetings to pass a fairness ordinance in the city of Paducah, KY.  Paducah is Kentucky's 9th city to pass protections for LGBTQ+ individuals. In this segment, Beth mentions the work of Equality Ohio to support state-wide fairness legislation in Ohio. 
We then turn to the frenzied discussion of Oprah's presidential prospects -- which we believe misses the point of  her speech entirely. In this discussion, we reference Susan Faludi's piece,  The Patriachs Are Falling. The Patriarchy is Stronger Than Ever, and a conversation on Twitter resulting from listener M.E. sharing  an article about soft skills in the tech industry. Unfortunately, we are unable to locate any nuance for the gentleman who is  suing Google for discrimination. 
Finally, we break down the public negotiation President Trump convened on DACA -- we cover the good, the bad, and the ugly. We also give a brief overview of  earmarks, since that seems to be on the President's mind.

      <title>Fire and Fury, Oprah for President, and faith and politics with Michael Wear</title>
      <link>https://play.acast.com/s/pantsuit-politics/fireandfury-oprahforpresident-andfaithandpoliticswithmichaelwear</link>
      <description>We discussed #MeToo's moment at the Golden Globes, including Oprah's (presidential?) speech. Beth is reading Fire and Fury and keeping us all updated and we talk faith and politics with Michael Wear.  Thanks to our patrons; we hope you'll consider supporting Pantsuit Politics by making a monthly contribution at Patreon and by leaving a positive review in the Apple Podcast Player for Pantsuit Politics and The Nuanced Life.
Sarah live tweeted The Golden Globes and we had lots of thoughts on political statements, Oprah's speech, and Hollywood's participation in the #MeToo #TimesUp movement. Beth also wanted to share an amazing interaction between Sarah Silverman and a Twitter troll.  Beth is currently reading Fire and Fury and we discuss the book, the coverage, and the biggest problem for the White House.  Sarah compliments Indiana State Representative Matt Lehman and Beth compliments Tabitha Isner.  In our main segment, we talk with Michael Wear, the founder of Public Square Strategies LLC, and a leading expert on the intersection of faith, politics and American public life. Wear directed faith outreach for President Obama's historic 2012 re-election campaign and was one of the youngest White House staffers in modern American history, leading evangelical outreach and helping manage The White House's engagement on religious and values issues, including adoption and anti-human trafficking efforts. He is also the author of Reclaiming Hope: Lessons Learned in the Obama White House About the Future of Faith in America and the recent viral post Pro-life Voters and Pro-Choice Politicians.
Outside of politics, Michael joins us to talk about The Crown and his love for Lidia Bastianich

      <title>The tax plan, Evangelicals, and gendered conversations</title>
      <link>https://play.acast.com/s/pantsuit-politics/thetaxplan-evangelicals-andgenderedconversations</link>
      <description>We’ve been talking about the #metoo movement at length. As the year draws to a close, we’re thinking more about what gender equality could really mean. We discuss the Republican tax plan, evangelicals and the President, and ways that our everyday conversations can promote greater equality between men and women. Thanks to our patrons; we hope you'll consider supporting Pantsuit Politics by making a monthly contribution at Patreon and by leaving a positive review in the Apple Podcast Player for Pantsuit Politics and The Nuanced Life. Thanks to today's sponsors: StoryWorth,ThirdLove, and ModCloth.  The Republican tax plan brings many changes to the tax code and we talk through the changes to deductions, credits, and rates. Beth liked the Rattner charts on Morning Joe - Final GOP plan still benefits wealthy the most: Rattner charts. She also saw an interesting musical analogy. We also discussed the drive for profit v. profit maximization and a similar question asked in the documentary The Corporation.  There was an incendiary story about the CDC and banned words - we tackle the story and the real story, which didn't make us feel a little bit better. Jenn Hatmaker is back in the political news with a profile in Politico. We discuss that and the broader conversation regarding evangelicals post-Roy Moore's campaign and this excellent article on the subject.  Sarah compliments Rex Tillerson and Beth compliments Senator Joe Manchin.  In our main segment, we discuss how to talk about gender issues and gender equality without reverting to defensiveness. We tackle mansplaining, emotional labor, and how to move the conversation forward.  Outside of politics, Sarah is thinking about the holidays and Beth has launched her new coaching business!  Hosted on Acast.

      <title>Doug Jones and Roy Moore, the Mueller Investigation, and a Kentucky Tragedy</title>
      <link>https://play.acast.com/s/pantsuit-politics/dougjonesandroymoore-themuellerinvestigation-andakentuckytragedy</link>
      <description>Doug Jones defeated Roy Moore in Alabama’s special senate election. We reflect on that race, complaints about bias in the Mueller investigation, and the tragic suicide of a Kentucky lawmaker.  Thanks so much to our patrons, who make our work possible. If you'd like to support Pantsuit Politics, please visit our Patreon page. We also truly appreciate today's sponsors, ModCloth and Virtue Labs.  We discuss the  turnout and results of the Alabama special election, in which Democrat Doug Jones defeated Republican Roy Moore. We have different perspectives about the role that race and gender played in this race and what the race means long-term.  The  House Judiciary Committee believes that the Mueller investigation into Russian election interference is being tainted by partisan bias. We discuss what it would mean to adopt this theory.  We'll discuss net neutrality and the tax bill in greater depth next week. We wanted to acknowledge the tragedy of Kentucky state Representative Dan Johnson's death. We reflect on the relationship between this incident and the #metoo movement.  We end with listener feedback from Kerry and Erin on our Jerusalem discussion.  Hosted on Acast.

      <title>Complicit: Trump, the Media, the Budget, and the 2017 Word of the Year</title>
      <link>https://play.acast.com/s/pantsuit-politics/complicit-trump-themedia-thebudget-andthe2017wordoftheyear</link>
      <description>Dictionary.com has made “complicit” the 2017 Word of the Year. We consider our collective responsibility and Lindy West’s powerful statement that the opposite of complicity isn’t apology; it’s fixing what you broke.  Thanks to our patrons; we hope you'll consider supporting Pantsuit Politics by making a monthly contribution at Patreon and by leaving a positive review in the Apple Podcast Player for Pantsuit Politics and The Nuanced Life. Thanks to today's sponsors:  Away, Lola, and ModCloth.  The President has  made mountains of three  media errors over the last week. We discuss  his relationship with media and our consumption of news.  Republicans have passed  a two-week stop gap measure to keep the government funded. The next deadline is December 22. We are not optimistic that all end-of-year challenges can be met in the next two weeks.  Sarah compliments  Senator Tim Scott for his honesty about disagreements within the Republican party. Beth compliments  Bill Scher for his measured approach in the debate over the future of the DNC.  In our main segment, we discuss the decision by Dictionary.com to make "complicit" the word of the year. In our wide-ranging conversation, we reference  Lindy West's powerful op-ed on complicity,  Richard Shelby's surprising appearance on State of the Union,  Nikki Haley's comments on Roy Moore, and a  recent Frank Luntz focus group in Alabama.  We end, as always, by talking about what's on our minds outside of politics. Beth appreciates Spotify supporting her cover song habit. Sarah is reading and watching new shows.   Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

      <link>https://play.acast.com/s/pantsuit-politics/jerusalem-alfranken-andfeedback</link>
      <description>A quick ask! We need reviews for The Nuanced Life to help us get recognized by iTunes! So, if you're enjoying the show, stop on over and give us a review. 
We discuss President Trump declaring Jerusalem as the capitol of Israel, as well as the resignations of John Conyers and Al Franken. We talk about the concerns about false accusations in light of the #metoo movement and Jenny's awesome video she shared with us on consent. We send our love to California and consider how often we offer sympathy and a "yes, but you choose..." along with it.
Thanks so much to ModCloth for sponsoring today's podcast. If you'd like to check out the Pantsuit Politics gift guide, visit  our website, and if you'd like to support our work, please visit our Patreon page. 
In our feedback portion of the show, we reconsider the way we often talk about Baby Boomers in light of feedback from Juanita. We also discuss the wonderful feedback we received regarding the necessity of restraining children in special education settings.

      <title>Michael Flynn, the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act, CVS and Aetna, and What Our Priorities Say About Our Care for Children</title>
      <link>https://play.acast.com/s/pantsuit-politics/michaelflynn-thetaxcutsandjobsact-cvsandaetna-andwhatourprioritiessayaboutourcareforchildren</link>
      <description>Michael Flynn has entered a guilty plea and is cooperating with the Mueller investigation, and the Senate took a big step toward tax cuts. With very few days left in the legislative year, we’re considering how our national priorities measure up to our professed love of children. 
Thanks to Crane &amp; Canopy, Away, Zola, and ModCloth for sponsoring today's episode. Thanks as always to our patrons; if you would like to support Pantsuit Politics, please visit our Patreon page. We were thrilled to appear on KCRW's One Year Later with Jennifer Rubin this week and hope you'll check out that conversation along with our new podcast, The Nuanced Life. 
Michael Flynn entered a guilty plea to lying to the FBI. Legal experts seem to agree that this relatively minor offense must mean he has valuable information to offer to the Mueller investigation. They disagree about what, if anything, it means about criminal acts by other Trump transition team officials. Here is the double jeopardy/pardon theory Sarah discussed, as well as Jared Kushner's financial interest in Israel. 
Beth reflects on whether you can vote for the candidate's policy and not character (aka we talk about Roy Moore again).
The Senate passed a version of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act and we share what we don't mind and what we hate about it. We also discuss growth and this episode of Freakonomics. We discuss the process and meaning of the vote. Meanwhile, the government still needs to be funded.  And, CVS and Aetnahave announced plans to merge. 
In our main segment, we talk about how our national priorities square with our expressed love for children through the prism of three topics: the funding of the Children's Health Insurance Program,

      <description>Oscar Wilde said, “everything in the world is about sex except sex. Sex is about power.” Sex and power continue to dominate the headlines, and we’re still processing that along with our increasingly tenuous relationship with the truth. 
Thanks so much to ModCloth and VirtueLabs for sponsoring today's podcast. If you'd like to check out the Pantsuit Politics gift guide, visit  our website, and if you'd like to support our work, please visit our Patreon page. 
In a wide-ranging discussion, we talk about the state of the news-- the revelations regarding Matt Lauer and Garrison Keillor, Republican efforts to cut taxes, North Korea, and the continued tweet-drowning presidency of Donald Trump. We also share listener feedback on our most recent #metoo conversation.

      <title>Net Neutrality and #MeToo: Reckonings and Reflections</title>
      <link>https://play.acast.com/s/pantsuit-politics/netneutralityand-metoo-reckoningsandreflections</link>
      <description>The tsunami of sexual harassment and assault allegations continues and is causing cultural and political reflection. Today we continue our ongoing discussion of politics, partisanship, and the #metoo movement.  Thank you for everyone supporting our work on Patreon. We also appreciate our sponsors for today's podcast:  Credible.com,  Away, and  ThirdLove. We hope you'll check out our new podcast, The Nuanced Life.  Congress has a very long to-do list through the end of the year. It's important to keep in mind that in addition to plans for tax cuts,  Congress needs to fund the government before year-end and deal with DACA.  The attack on a mosque in the Sinai peninsula this weekend was the deadliest in modern Egypt's history.

      <title>Tax Cuts, Mugabe and Zimbabwe, and the Opioid Crisis</title>
      <link>https://play.acast.com/s/pantsuit-politics/taxcuts-mugabeandzimbabwe-andtheopioidcrisis</link>
      <description>The opioid epidemic impacts all of us in increasingly significant ways. Today, we’re discussing the impact of President Trump’s decision to declare this a public health emergency. 
It's Thanksgiving, and we're so grateful to everyone who makes Pantsuit Politics possible. We couldn't do the podcast without the support of our patrons, our advertising agency, and our sponsors. Thanks to today's sponsors:  BeFrugal.com and ModCloth. If you're interested in advertising on Pantsuit Politics, please reach out to Midroll. We're also so excited to launch our new podcast, The Nuanced Life, this week. Thank you for helping us out by listening, rating, subscribing, and reviewing it on the Apple Podcast Player! If you'd like Pantsuit Politics to speak at your university, business, or organization, please let Beth know. 
We begin with an update on  Republican efforts to cut some people's and companies' taxes. Some of the  provisions in the Senate bill are truly  mind-boggling. 
Next, we discuss the  recent military coup in Zimbabwe. We talk about Robert Mugabe's rise to power,  the World Health Organization's decision to revoke his appointment as a global health ambassador, the events leading up to the coup--including  a military official's trip to China, and his response to being placed under house arrest. The US  Senate Foreign Relations Committee seems uneasy about how power might transition in this nation. 
To compliment the other side, Sarah compliments  Senator Lisa Murkowski for her insistence on a healthcare stabilization plan in relation to the tax cut bill. Beth appreciates  Brian Baird, who is joining forces with a former state GOP...

      <description>Somehow, we’re still debating the Alabama senate race to fill Jeff Sessions’s seat. We’re here with additional thoughts on Doug Jones, Roy Moore, and tax cuts, plus a later-recorded segment on Al Franken and George Bush...because 2017. Thanks so much to everyone supporting our work on Patreon. If you'd like to bring some nuance to your neighborhood in 2018, please reach out to beth@pantsuitpoliticsshow.com. We also appreciate ModCloth's sponsorship of today's podcast. Please stick around for the post-roll and help us by completing  this quick survey.  We begin by talking about Doug Jones, Roy Moore's Democratic opponent. We share what we know about his  background and policy positions.  Although we hate the circumstances, we're encouraged by a  bicameral, bipartisan effort to reform the process of dealing with sexual harassment in Congress.  More transparency and accountability are clearly needed.  Republicans continue to try to find ways to keep their tax cuts within the  $1.5 trillion reconciliation box. Although there are  some good things in this bill, we think the plan is mostly absurd and that tax policy and healthcare policy should be set through regular order. We discuss feedback on tax policy from listeners Peggy and Lou.  After we recorded, we learned about the  Al Franken and  George H.W. Bush sexual harassment stories. We recorded an extra block to provide our thoughts.       Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Although there are <a href="https://www.politico.com/agenda/story/2017/11/16/easter-eggs-hidden-in-senate-tax-bill-000583"> some good things</a> in this bill, we think the plan is mostly absurd and that tax policy and healthcare policy should be set through regular order. We discuss feedback on tax policy from listeners Peggy and Lou.  After we recorded, we learned about the <a href="http://www.kabc.com/2017/11/16/leeann-tweeden-on-senator-al-franken/"> Al Franken</a> and <a href="http://www.cnn.com/2017/11/16/politics/george-h-w-bush-accuser-1992/index.html"> George H.W. Bush</a> sexual harassment stories. We recorded an extra block to provide our thoughts.      <br><p> Hosted on Acast.

      <title>Roy Moore, Trump's Asia Trip, and Tax Cuts</title>
      <link>https://play.acast.com/s/pantsuit-politics/roymoore-trumpsasiatrip-andtaxcuts</link>
      <description>You know things have gone terribly wrong when we're having a national conversation about whether a 14-year-old girl consented to a relationship with a man in his thirties. We discuss the responses to Roy Moore, the President's presence in Asia, and the process and substance of the Republican tax cut plan. 
Thanks so much to everyone supporting our work on Patreon and to today's sponsors: ModCloth, The Flex Company, and VirtueLabs. We are scheduling speaking events for 2018. Please email Beth for more information. 
We take a minute to extend our thoughts and prayers to everyone impacted by the terrible earthquake in Iran and Iraq. 
The  Washington Post story on Roy Moore has prompted some truly outrageous  reactions. We try to unpack the partisanship and tribalism at the root of these reactions as well as what all of this says about  voters' shifting standards of conduct for political figures and  communities of faith. Beth wishes we could take a look at Roy Moore's conduct on its own instead of trying to connect it to our personal political perspectives. 
Sarah shares  her perspective on stories that Sutherland Springs, Texas, is relying on faith to help cope with the devastating mass shooting that killed so many loved ones in the community. She draws on her experience from the shooting at Heath High School in 1997. 
We also discuss President Trump's trip to Asia, during which he complimented  China's President, neglected to discuss human rights and democracy, and took  Vladimir Putin at his word regarding Russian election attacks. 
To compliment the other side, Sarah appreciates Kentucky Governor  Matt Bevin's approach to sexual...

      <title>Primer: The Constitution and Appropriations</title>
      <link>https://play.acast.com/s/pantsuit-politics/primer-theconstitutionandappropriations</link>
      <description>We kick off a series on the U.S. Constitution by talking about the structure of Articles I-VI. This is a very basic review that reminds us of the intricate balance between state and federal responsibilities the framers envisioned. On Tuesday's episode, we'll be talking about tax reform, so we spend some time on a specific power granted to Congress -- the power of the purse.

      <description>A democratic wave on Tuesday signals that America might not be feeling great again. We discuss the election, listener feedback, and some fascinating articles on today’s episode. 
Thanks to everyone supporting our work on Patreon. And thanks to the sponsors of today's podcast: ModCloth and The Flex Company. 
We talk about the  Virginia gubernatorial race, the election of  Danica Roem, and  other Democratic victories on Tuesday. 
Next, at listener Eva's recommendation, we discuss Peter Beinart's article,  "Republican Is Not a Synonym for Racist."  
We also, at listener Lisa's recommendation, discuss Conor Friedersdorf's  "Four Defenses of Trump's Dissembling on Russia." 
Listener Karla left beautiful feedback on our website about our discussion of Sutherland Springs that we share.  
Finally, at listener Debbie's recommendation, we talk about  Erica Komisar's new book on motherhood and  "The Politicization of Motherhood."

      <title>Sutherland Springs, Wilbur Ross, and What Kind of Country We Want to Have</title>
      <link>https://play.acast.com/s/pantsuit-politics/sutherlandsprings-wilburross-andwhatkindofcountrywewanttohave</link>
      <description>The weekend's headlines painted an incredibly depressing picture. In the wake of these events, we're realizing that America needs a serious conversation about what kind of country we want to be. 
Thanks so much to our listeners who support us via Patreon. And thanks to today's sponsors: Crane &amp; Canopy, ThirdLove, The Flex Company, and ModCloth. 
We discuss the horrific shooting in a  Sutherland Springs, Texas, church and ask how we can move past talking points on gun violence. Do we want to live in a country where  church-goers carry weapons? Do we want to feel safe at concerts and in public venues? When we say this about  "mental health," what do we mean? 
We also discuss reporting about  Wilbur Ross's financial ties to Russia. 
Finally, we talk about what's on our minds outside of politics. Sarah is ready to move, and Beth is thinking about a beautiful  New York Times piece on platonic relationships.

      <title>Terrorism in New York City, Facebook and Twitter, Donna Brazile, and Our Second Birthday</title>
      <link>https://play.acast.com/s/pantsuit-politics/terrorisminnewyorkcity-facebookandtwitter-donnabrazile-andoursecondbirthday</link>
      <description>Pantsuit Politics is two years old! We celebrate, reflect, and discuss the week's news. We are so excited about our new book coming next year and our new podcast The Nuanced Life - coming soon!
Thanks so much to all of you who financially support Pantsuit Politics. If you'd like to support our work, please visit our Patreon page. This month we're giving a shout-out to our international patrons! 
We also were so excited to be named in The Guardian's Best podcasts of 2017!
Thanks to ModCloth and  The Flex Company for sponsoring today's episode. 
We are heartbroken about the  deadly attack in New York this week. We discuss the President's response, a merit-based immigration system, and the Islamic State. 
We also talk about  Facebook and Twitter making an appearance during Senate hearings and the interference in our 2016 election - as well as this article Why Is the U.S. So Susceptible to Social-Media Distortion?. We discuss Donna Brazile's Politico article about the DNC and  the role of Obama (or absence of a role) in the Democratic Party.
We respond to a listener's question about a friend who is changing her positions because of a new relationship (with an assist from  Roxane Gay's fantastic article about women's friendships). 
Finally, we reflect on the past two years and on the future of Pantsuit Politics.

      <description>Happy Halloween! Paul Manafort and Rick Gates surrendered to the FBI this week, and George Papadopoulos plead guilty to lying to the FBI. We discuss the news of the week and share our conversation with Gretchen Carlson about her book, Be Fierce. 
Thanks to Virtue Labs and ModCloth for sponsoring today's episode. You can also support Pantsuit Politics through our Patreon page. 
We review what we know so far about  George Papadopoulos's guilty plea and the indictment issued against Paul Manafort and Rick Gates.
To compliment the other side, Sarah compliments  John Boehner for his post-office reflection, and Beth compliments  Senator Claire McCaskill for her willingness to be moderate. 
We had the privilege of talking with Gretchen Carlson during an event at the Taft law firm. We share portions of her remarks and our discussion. 
Finally, we share what's on our minds outside of politics. Sarah's still moving and thinking about Halloween. Beth shares another tip on approaching others with a little more compassion.

      <description>Republican Senator Jeff Flake rebuked the tone of our politics on the Senate Floor this week. We discuss his remarks and the hard conversations we need to keep having to do real work in America. 
Thanks so much to ModCloth for sponsoring this episode.  Here's Beth's favorite new piece. 
We begin by discussing the breaking news that five(+) women have described sexual harassment from  Mark Halperin. We also talk about  Senator Jeff Flake's speech on the Senate floor and the revolving doors of  news related to the 2016 election. 
We end with listener feedback from Liz on the Boy Scouts of America and Janice on end-of-life care.

      <title>Niger, Healthcare, Tax "Reform," and Sexual Harassment</title>
      <link>https://play.acast.com/s/pantsuit-politics/niger-healthcare-taxreform-andsexualharassment</link>
      <description>We received an overwhelming amount of discussion from listeners about sexual harassment and assault. We've learned a lot and continue the conversation in today’s episode.  Thank you to our sponsors for this episode:  BaubleBar,  Away, and ModCloth.  To support Pantsuit Politics, please visit our Patreon page and rate, subscribe, and review the podcast on the Apple Podcast Player.  We discuss the horrific  ambush of US troops in Niger and try to provide some context to  military engagement in western Africa. While  details are still emerging about what took place, the President's team seems more engaged in a battle with Sgt. La David Johnson's family than in confronting the difficult  intelligence and foreign policy questions implicated.  Next, we turn to the legislature. We talk about the bipartisan work Senators Murray and Alexander are doing on  healthcare and the wholly partisan approach Congressional Republicans are taking to  tax cuts and the federal budget.   For our compliments to the other party, Sarah compliments  Former President George W. Bush for his recent remarks on civility in our discourse. Beth compliments  Former President Jimmy Carter for his willingness to engage with North Korea in order to prevent escalating conflict.  Because of the overwhelming feedback we received in response to  our discussion of Mayim Bialik's New York Times editorial, we resume the discussion of sexual assault and harassment, sharing the lessons we have learned over the past week. We also share a message from a listener who came to understand after the fact that he engaged in non-consensual sex with a woman in college and offered up his learnings from that experience about what men must do to stop the violence.  We end, as always, with what's on our minds outside of politics. Beth weighs in on personality types following  Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

We've learned a lot and continue the conversation in today’s episode.  Thank you to our sponsors for this episode: <a href="https://www.baublebar.com/category/whats-new/best-sellers.html?cvosrc=ppc.google.bauble%20bar&amp;cvo_crid=220250607077&amp;cvo_campaign=168858712&amp;cvo_adgroup=8688333472&amp;keyword=bauble%20bar&amp;matchtype=e&amp;gclid=Cj0KCQjwprbPBRCHARIsAF_7gDYRmutH3sQolRSAmOqNm4u6CQ0a8ADSLj9xwfAvYI_CQSYwHJwQDDcaAn1-EALw_wcB"> BaubleBar</a>, <a href="https://www.awaytravel.com/shop?utm_source=pantsuit&amp;utm_medium=podcast&amp;utm_campaign=pantsuit"> Away</a>, and <a href="modcloth.com">ModCloth</a>.  To support Pantsuit Politics, please visit our <a href="patreon.com/pantsuitpolitics">Patreon</a> page and rate, subscribe, and review the podcast on the Apple Podcast Player.  We discuss the horrific <a href="https://www.theatlantic.com/international/archive/2017/10/niger-isis-us-soldiers-attack/543531/"> ambush of US troops in Niger</a> and try to provide some context to <a href="http://www.politico.com/story/2017/10/20/what-really-happened-niger-troops-killed-244008"> military engagement in western Africa</a>. While <a href="https://www.voanews.com/a/new-details-emerge-about-attack-that-killed-us-soldiers-in-niger/4080617.html"> details are still emerging</a> about what took place, the President's team seems more engaged in a battle with Sgt. La David Johnson's family than in confronting the difficult <a href="https://www.cbsnews.com/news/niger-ambush-soldiers-killed-new-details/"> intelligence and foreign policy questions implicated</a>.  Next, we turn to the legislature. We talk about the bipartisan work Senators Murray and Alexander are doing on <a href="https://www.vox.com/health-care/2017/10/19/16505268/perilous-path-alexander-murray-law"> healthcare</a> and the wholly partisan approach Congressional Republicans are taking to <a href="-%20https:/www.theatlantic.com/politics/archive/2017/10/republicans-rally-around-raising-the-deficit/543510/"> tax cuts and the federal budget</a>.   For our compliments to the other party, Sarah compliments <a href="http://www.politico.com/story/2017/10/19/full-text-george-w-bush-speech-trump-243947"> Former President George W. Bush</a> for his recent remarks on civility in our discourse. Beth compliments <a href="https://www.nytimes.com/reuters/2017/10/22/world/asia/22reuters-usa-carter-northkorea.html"> Former President Jimmy Carter</a> for his willingness to engage with North Korea in order to prevent escalating conflict.  Because of the overwhelming feedback we received in response to <a href="http://www.pantsuitpoliticsshow.com/show-archives/2017/10/17/the-jcpoa-iran-agreement-mayim-bialik-on-feminism-and-weinstein-and-nuanced-relationships"> our discussion of Mayim Bialik's New York Times editorial</a>, we resume the discussion of sexual assault and harassment, sharing the lessons we have learned over the past week. We also share a message from a listener who came to understand after the fact that he engaged in non-consensual sex with a woman in college and offered up his learnings from that experience about what men must do to stop the violence.  We end, as always, with what's on our minds outside of politics.

      <title>The JCPOA (Iran Agreement), Mayim Bialik on Feminism and Weinstein, and Nuanced Relationships</title>
      <link>https://play.acast.com/s/pantsuit-politics/thejcpoa-iranagreement-mayimbialikonfeminismandweinstein-andnuancedrelationships</link>
      <description>On Capitol Hill, it feels like the gap between parties is increasingly wide. But across America, Republicans and Democrats build lives, homes, and families together every day. Today, we’re talking about how houses don’t have to be divided when you’re in a nuanced relationship.  Thanks so much to the sponsors of today's episode: Crane &amp; Canopy,  ThirdLove, and ModCloth.  We begin with a discussion on the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action (the "JCPOA") and  President Trump's unwillingness to certify that this agreement on Iran continues to be in America's best interests. We talk about  Congress's options in light of Trump's decision.  As we continue to learn more from Harvey Weinstein's victims, we discuss  Mayim Bialik's controversial New York Times editorial on being a feminist in Hollywood.  To compliment the other side, Sarah praises Secretary Mattis for his mature and measured service in the Trump administration. Without knowing his politics, Beth compliments  Cameron Gordon, a former NFL player in training to be a police officer.  Many listeners responded to our call, started by Chelsea's email, to discuss being in relationships with people from the other side of the aisle. We loved hearing from and talking with so many people and take a few minutes to reflect on what nuanced relationships can teach America.  We end, as always, by talking about what's on our minds outside of politics. Sarah is in the packing mode. Beth is unsubscribing from email lists.       Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

      <title>Harvey Weinstein, Masculinity &amp; Mass Shootings, and Facebook, Trump, and the Attention Economy</title>
      <link>https://play.acast.com/s/pantsuit-politics/harveyweinstein-masculinity-massshootings-andfacebook-trump-andtheattentioneconomy</link>
      <description>Russian agents bought Facebook ads targeted to voters in crucial swing states in last years elections, and the implications of the attention economy on our democracy go far beyond 2016. We focus on Facebook, Twitter, and the devices we use to distract ourselves from discomfort.  Thanks so much to the sponsors for this episode:  Baublebar, ModCloth, and Virtue Labs.  We start today's podcast discussing an article on why mass shootings tend to be committed by men. We also talk about the  Harvey Weinstein story and the bizarrely partisan reactions to that story. We note that the transactional nature of masculine energy seems to be taking shape in the  spat that Donald Trump is having with Senator Bob Corker.  To compliment the other party, Sarah commends  Senator Dean Heller and other Republicans who have urged ATF to review standards on the sale of bump stocks. Beth compliments Senator  Dianne Feinstein for her long-term service and work on gun safety measures.  For our feature topic, we discuss why Facebook, Twitter, and Google are so effectively and perhaps unintentionally transforming our politics and brains. In our discussion, we cite the following resources:   How Information Overload Robs Us of Our Creativity  Our Minds Can Be Hijacked Mindful Resistance  The Attention Economy and the Demise of the Middle Ground Pema Chodron on Dunzi  Realizd app We end, as always, with what's on our minds outside of politics. Both of us are thinking about clearing space to make room for things that make us better.        Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

      <title>Guns, God, and the Culture Wars</title>
      <link>https://play.acast.com/s/pantsuit-politics/guns-god-andtheculturewars</link>
      <description>The Las Vegas shooting seems to be fueling rather than calming the culture wars. We talk about how God and guns do not have to tear America apart. 
Thank you to ModCloth for sponsoring today's podcast. 
We discuss listener feedback, why gun sales spike after mass shootings, and how "thoughts and prayers" has become a cultural lightning rod. 
If you would like to help Las Vegas victims and their families, our listener Megan shared this link: https://www.gofundme.com/dr2ks2-las-vegas-victims-fund.

      <title>Las Vegas, Puerto Rico, and American Consumerism</title>
      <link>https://play.acast.com/s/pantsuit-politics/lasvegas-puertorico-andamericanconsumerism</link>
      <description>We're heartbroken over the mass shooting in Las Vegas. We recorded this episode on Monday morning (October 2), so we share our initial thoughts. We also discuss the humanitarian crisis in Puerto Rico, and we share Sarah's interview with Joshua Davis.
Thanks so much to today's sponsors: Modcloth, Ellevest, and  Wunder Capital. 
The  preliminary reports out of Las Vegas have confirmed that the shooting near Mandalay Bay is the worst mass shooting in American history. Since information is developing, we focus on our reactions to tragedy, the conversations in our country around  gun violence and gun control (and  this episode of Vox's The Weeds), and how we interpret comments about "evil acts" and "thoughts and prayers." 
We also react to  President Trump's statements, actions, and tweets regarding the absolute horror unfolding in Puerto Rico. 
As a continuation of our conversation about consumerism in American politics, we share Sarah's interview with  Joshua Davis, author of From Head Shops to Whole Foods. 
We end on a lighter note, discussing, as always, what's on our minds outside of politics. Beth needs everyone to know how good The Lazy Genius podcast is. Sarah is reading  Hillary Clinton's book and working on her move.

      <description>America’s favorite sport has become the latest arena for partisan politics. We discuss the President’s statements on the NFL and the relationship between race, politics, and patriotism. We also talk about North Korean policy continuing to play out via Twitter and the incredible suffering Puerto Rico. We end the show with what's on our minds outside of politics--including Sarah's home purchase and an article on accidental killings that touched Beth.  Thanks so much to our sponsors for today's episode:  ThirdLove and ModCloth.  North Korea has started referring to President Trump as  "Mr. Evil President." Its foreign minister says that sending missiles to the US mainland is "inevitable," and the President tweeted that North Korea might not exist much longer if it continues this kind of rhetoric. Side note: we're grateful for professionals continuing to support this administration's foreign policy apparatus and concerned that they might exit around the  one-year mark.  We wish we had the right words to express the angst we feel for our fellow Americans in Puerto Rico. Days after Hurricane Irma,  Hurricane Maria destroyed 90% of Puerto Rican's homes, took down power lines and internet, and created floodwaters ten feet high. We also talk about continued recovery efforts in Texas and Florida. We're particularly inspired by  The Lady General Foundation's efforts.  We send our thoughts to  Nashville in the wake of a church shooting on Sunday.  We discuss President Trump's  remarks in support of Luther Strange in Alabama over the weekend and how his comments on whipping votes might impact future negotiations.  To compliment the other side, Sarah highlights the work of  Republican Puerto Rican Congresswoman Jenniffer Gonzalez-Colon. Beth thanks Democratic Ohio Representative Nickie Antonio for sponsoring House Bill 160, making Ohio's non-discrimination laws more inclusive.  We discuss the President's comments about sports, race, and patriotism in depth.

      <title>Trump's UN Speech, North Korea, Graham-Cassidy, and Listener Feedback</title>
      <link>https://play.acast.com/s/pantsuit-politics/trumpsunspeech-northkorea-graham-cassidy-andlistenerfeedback</link>
      <description>President Trump addressed the UN this week. We discuss his remarks, the continued debate on Graham-Cassidy as a last ditch effort to repeal the Affordable Care Act, and listener feedback. 
First, we celebrate reaching our first Patreon goal that will allow us to produce The Nuanced Life series. We're so excited and extraordinarily grateful. If you'd like to support our work and access our secret garden of bonus content, visit our Patreon page. Thank you, thank you, thank you. 
And thanks to Modcloth and VirtueLabs for sponsoring today's episode. 
Before discussing foreign policy, we take a moment to acknowledge the  devastating earthquakes in Mexico City. Unfortunately, Mexico City is  uniquely positioned for more disasters. 
We talk about the  speech President Trump made to the UN, in which he promised to totally destroy North Korea if necessary and talked tough about Venezuela and US sovereignty. We discuss the contradictory mix of intervention and isolation the President promised as well as the tendency on the part of Americans to forget what we "get" in exchange for our global involvement. 
Next, we discuss the Graham-Cassidy bill and the  inexplicable inability of legislators to make a policy case for it. 
Finally, we discuss listener feedback on our Title IX conversation and Erin's question on how we do it all (and whether that's a question that we should ask each other).

      <title>Freeman High School Shooting, St. Louis Riots, the Graham-Cassidy Healthcare Plan, and Tax Reform</title>
      <link>https://play.acast.com/s/pantsuit-politics/freemanhighschoolshooting-st.louisriots-thegraham-cassidyhealthcareplan-andtaxreform</link>
      <description>Republicans have promised tax reform by the end of the year. We talk about tax policy, the Trump plan, and the goals of our tax code. We also discuss the tragic shooting at Freeman High School, the reactions to Jason Stockley's acquittal, and the healthcare plan proposed by Senators Graham and Cassidy. We end the show with thoughts on parenting and the Emmys. 
We're still interested in hearing about your nuanced relationships! Send a voice memo to sarah@pantsuitpoliticsshow.com about your partnership with the other side. And we're less than $100 away from producing a spinoff series on nuanced living. Please head over to Patreon to support Pantsuit Politics and access all of our patrons-only content. 
Thanks to today's sponsors: ModCloth,  Crane and Canopy, and  Wunder Capital. 
Freeman High School. Sadly, Caleb Sharpe, a 15-year-old sophomore entered his school in Rockford, Washington, with an assault rifle and a pistol. He killed one classmate and injured three others before Joe Bowen, a janitor and military veteran, heroically intervened.  Sharpe, who had given indicators that he was a danger to himself, said he intended to teach a lesson on bullying. 
St. Louis. In 2011, Jason Stockley, a police officer at the time, killed Anthony Smith during a drug stop. Following a bench trial, a judge acquitted Stockley of first-degree murder. We discuss the facts and the fallout from this verdict in a  city struggling with racial tension and economic angst. 
Graham-Cassidy. Republicans are scrambling to pass healthcare reform in advance of the September 30 fiscal year end in order to set the table for tax reform. Senators Lindsay Graham and Bill Cassidy have proposed a new version of "repeal and replace" that would turn over funding and control to states.  This Washington Post article succinctly explains the differences between various healthcare reform efforts and the Affordable Care Act. We discuss the issues with this plan and urge listeners who oppose the plan to take it seriously. 
Compliment the Other Side. Beth compliments Senator Elizabeth Warren for working on  legislation that would allow individuals to implement a credit freeze for free. Sarah compliments Congressman Will Hurd for comments on his recent  Pod Save the World appearance. 
Tax Reform. We take a deeper dive into tax reform today given the administration's stated goal of passing comprehensive tax reform by the end of the year. As

      <title>The Briefcase: Public Pensions and School Funding</title>
      <link>https://play.acast.com/s/pantsuit-politics/thebriefcase-publicpensionsandschoolfunding</link>
      <description>Sarah is in Washington D.C. as part of her #CommissionerHolland duties, so this episode features two interviews. First, Beth talks with Angie Ferguson, a Kentucky state judicial secretary (and fellow Phi Mu and Transylvania University alum) about the public pension crisis. Then, Beth talks with Zahava Stadler, Manager of Policy and Research at EdBuild, about school funding, inequality, and new ways to think about education.

 ModCloth is your go-to spot for fashion as unique as you. Whip up your wardrobe with quirky prints and classic silhouettes. Make every day extraordinary by going to modcloth.com and entering the code PANTSUIT to receive $30 off your purchase of $100 or more. 
Third Love. Stop tugging at your bra straps and second-guessing your size. Go to thirdlove.com/pantsuit now to get your perfect ThirdLove bra… and try it for 30 days!
Angie Ferguson has been with the Kentucky state court system for 13 years. During that time, she has paid into Kentucky's non-hazardous workers' pension system. Angie recognizes that something has to give in our benefits system. She also knows that we aren't paying public workers enough to reasonably expect to shift all of the risk and burden to individuals. She gives us some live Friday feedback in this episode. 
Zahava Stadler is the Manager of Policy and Research at EdBuild, a national non-profit focused on bringing common sense solutions to school funding. Zahava and Beth discuss how we accept real property tax funding at the local level for schools as part of the natural order, and, in doing so, contribute to an unequal school system that fails many of our children.

      <title>DACA, North Korea, and Public Pension Crises</title>
      <link>https://play.acast.com/s/pantsuit-politics/daca-northkorea-andpublicpensioncrises</link>
      <description>Unfunded pension obligations have risen to $1.9 trillion from $292 billion since 2007. Today we talk about public pension systems, partisanship, and problem-solving. In the Pearls, we discuss reports that President Trump will end the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals program ("DACA") and North Korea's hydrogen bomb test. In the Heels, we talk about Sarah's upcoming trip to Washington, D.C. and Beth's life decisions. 
We had the honor of talking with Branden Harvey for his inspiring podcast, Sounds Good, while we were in Nashville.  Check out our conversation on nuance and empathy. We also hope that you'll consider supporting Pantsuit Politics. We're so close to our goal and can't wait to celebrate with a mini-series on living in a more nuanced way.

The Pearls
This weekend,  reports surfaced that President Trump will end DACA, which President Obama enacted via executive order in June 2012. DACA provides a renewable period of deferred deportation and eligibility for work visas to individuals who meet  certain eligibility requirements, including that they entered the United States prior to their sixteenth birthdays and pose no threat to national security or public safety. DACA funds itself through application fees, and a  2016 study found that it has had a positive employment impact for the eligible population. Nevertheless, the President is reported to be living up to his campaign promise to end DACA in six months. We discuss this decision, particularly given the impact it will have on people already suffering from Hurricane Harvey. 
North Korea tested a powerful hydrogen bomb on Sunday--its eighteenth missile test since President Trump took office. Through

      <description>In today's episode of the Briefcase, we talk about the devastating impacts of Hurricane Harvey, the humans lessons we can take from this moment in time, and how and when to discuss the political impact of natural disasters. We also discuss the new documentary, Accidental Courtesy, about a black man who befriends members of the Ku Klux Klan.

As we come to understand the  causes and  infrastructure issues surrounding Hurricane Harvey, we are most struck by the images of  kindness and  compassion for others coming out of the area. We discuss our desire to harness  Americans' propensity for love and generosity in the wake of tragedy to help heal some of our political division. 
We also discuss the reactions to Hurricane Harvey--including social media discussion surrounding the  First Lady,

      <title>Pardoning Joe Arpaio, North Korea, Hurricane Harvey, and Sex Addiction</title>
      <link>https://play.acast.com/s/pantsuit-politics/pardoningjoearpaio-northkorea-hurricaneharvey-andsexaddiction</link>
      <description>As our country continues to feel divisive and unstable, it can be helpful to focus on our shared struggles. Today, our listener, Aubrey, shares her story and offers a nuanced perspective on sex addiction.

The Pearls
The White House took the concept of a Friday night news dump to new heights over the weekend. We discuss the implications of President Trump's decision to pardon  Sherriff Joe Arpaio and what we didn't know about Arpaio. In addition to  inflaming racial tensions, the pardon could also impact  Robert Mueller's investigation. 
After the President claiming during his Phoenix rally that North Korea has started to respect the United States,  North Korea launched three short-range ballistic missiles. This news comes as the President signed a directive banning  transgender military service. 
Although  Sebastian Gorka's bizarre departure from the White House made some headlines, we're a little tired of pretending that people...

      <title>The Briefcase: A Tale of Two Trump Speeches</title>
      <link>https://play.acast.com/s/pantsuit-politics/thebriefcase-ataleoftwotrumpspeeches</link>
      <description>This week, we heard from the President about his strategy in Afghanistan. Sarah was impressed that according to several reports the President spoke with soldiers before making decision and Beth reflects that most of her reaction was due to her lack of trust in Trump. We also discuss The Daily's reporting on the long-term strategy in Afghanistan with regard to Pakistan in particular. 
Then, we watched him give a 77-minute speech during a campaign rally in Phoenix and talk about Ben Carson's presence and his continued attacks on the media. We also struggle with people continuing to support Trump. We reflect on our reactions to these two speeches. 
We also discuss presidential pardons and this great Twitter thread on the subject (also don't miss the moment where Sarah confuses Chelsea Handler for Chelsea Manning!). We also talk about whether or not the Founding Fathers anticipated Trump.

        <![CDATA[<p>This week, we heard from <a href="https://www.nytimes.com/video/us/politics/100000005381642/president-trump-afghanistan-speech-live.html">the President about his strategy in Afghanistan</a>. Sarah was impressed that <a href="https://www.nytimes.com/2017/08/21/world/asia/trump-afghanistan.html?mcubz=1&amp;_r=0">according to several reports</a> the President spoke with soldiers before making decision and Beth reflects that most of her reaction was due to her lack of trust in Trump. We also discuss <a href="https://www.nytimes.com/2017/06/07/podcasts/the-daily/the-daily-the-view-from-kabul.html?mcubz=1">The Daily's reporting on the long-term strategy in Afghanistan with regard to Pakistan in particular.</a> </p><p>Then, we watched him give a 77-minute speech during a campaign rally in Phoenix and talk about Ben Carson's presence and his continued attacks on the media. We also struggle with people continuing to support Trump. We reflect on our reactions to these two speeches. </p><p>We also discuss presidential pardons and <a href="https://twitter.com/WangCecillia/status/900199367562248192">this great Twitter thread</a> on the subject (also don't miss the moment where Sarah confuses Chelsea Handler for Chelsea Manning!). We also talk about whether or not the Founding Fathers anticipated Trump. </p><p>Our patrons-only bonus episode for August is available for $15+ monthly subscribers. <a href="https://www.patreon.com/pantsuitpolitics">Head over to Patreon</a> to support the show and access the secret garden of content. </p><p>Thanks to our sponsors for this episode: </p><p><a href="https://www.modcloth.com/on/demandware.store/Sites-modcloth-Site/default/Default-Start?src=paid_brand&amp;utm_source=google&amp;utm_medium=cpc&amp;utm_campaign=G.SEM.US_BR.X_Brand&amp;utm_term=modcloth&amp;utm_content=e&amp;gclid=CLjHr_HOudQCFQiLaQodDt0Nuw"> ModCloth</a> is your go-to spot for fashion as unique as you.

The Pearls
 
Congress has BIG plans for their return from August recess and we are skeptical they can get any of it accomplished. 
Listener Caitlin sent us the New York Times editorial Motherhood Isn’t Sacrifice, It’s Selfishness and we talked about whether or not we agreed and what the type of impact this discussion had on those who choose not to have children.

We compliment Senator Alexander and Senator Murray on their bipartisan approach to health care.

That means more bounce, more shine, more strength, and more life for your hair. Visit Virtue Labs and use the code PANTSUIT for 10% off and free shipping.
The Pearls 
We discuss the Senate's failure to pass a repeal or replacement of the Affordable Care Act, including the valiant efforts of Senators  Susan Collins and Lisa Murkowski. 
We also talk about  Reince Preibus's departure from the White House and the President's appointment of  John Kelly as the new Chief of Staff. 
To compliment the other side, Beth highlights the work of  Take Back Our Republic, and Emily compliments  Chuck Schumer. 
The Suit
We discuss Emily's viral tweetstorm and Call the Halls: Contacting Your Representatives the Smart Way. 
The Heel
Since we're both introverts, we discuss the introversion, the internet, public service, and the importance of our extroverted friends.

      <description>On most days, you can bank on the news being brought to a grinding halt by a tweet from the President. Today we discuss all of the problems we aren’t solving because we are fixated on his 140 character musings.

Surprise! There's more stuff that  Jared Kushner left out of required disclosures. We try to put the constant barrage of information in perspective. 
We'd love to offer a nuanced analysis of the healthcare bill that will be voted on this week.  If only we knew what's in it.

      <link>https://play.acast.com/s/pantsuit-politics/thebriefcase-donjr.-russia-andanti-trustfeedback</link>
      <description>Today, we discuss the reporting regarding Donald Trump, Jr., and the Russian influence in the United States today. 
We're SO CLOSE to our $3000 monthly goal. Please head over to Patreon today for our special promotion!

 Donald Trump, Jr.'s behavior has us reeling. Plus, we discuss Leah's feedback on our antitrust episode: 
On antitrust, your discussion of the very grey area was so important. I'm a policy lawyer in the agricultural industry, and consolidation and mergers are a huge topic for our industry like most. Obviously, there are concerns about putting market share into less and less companies, and I share those concerns. At the same time, the costs, for example, of bringing new seed or a new drug to market are prohibitive and possibly insurmountable for any new/small company to actually hurdle. So, along with this discussion of what the corporations are doing to limit market access, is a question of, has the government through regulation or other means also (unintentionally) encouraged that consolidation and lack of market access? I'm totally in support of reasonable regulation and I see the need for a lot of the reviews/permits/etc that have to be done for many of these companies that create high tech solutions like seeds, pharmaceuticals/etc. At the same time, if those requirements are making it impossible for new innovation to be explored (and if that new innovation is not going to be properly funded through public research-but that's another issue) than aren't we (collectively as the govt/people demanding this) at least contributing to the issue of the consolidation?
We also appreciate our listener Sarah explaining that paper was indeed invented by a person at a specific time: 
Sarah, you made an off-hand comment in the latest episode about how no one really invented paper, and societies all simultaneously invented it. It was actually invented in China in 105 AD by Tsai Lun. Papyrus, because it is woven, is not technically paper, so it was definitely invented in China at one time (approximately).

So, along with this discussion of what the corporations are doing to limit market access, is a question of, has the government through regulation or other means also (unintentionally) encouraged that consolidation and lack of market access? I'm totally in support of reasonable regulation and I see the need for a lot of the reviews/permits/etc that have to be done for many of these companies that create high tech solutions like seeds, pharmaceuticals/etc. At the same time, if those requirements are making it impossible for new innovation to be explored (and if that new innovation is not going to be properly funded through public research-but that's another issue) than aren't we (collectively as the govt/people demanding this) at least contributing to the issue of the consolidation?</em></p><p>We also appreciate our listener Sarah explaining that paper was indeed invented by a person at a specific time: </p><p><em>Sarah, you made an off-hand comment in the latest episode about how no one really invented paper, and societies all simultaneously invented it. It was actually invented in China in 105 AD by Tsai Lun. Papyrus, because it is woven, is not technically paper, so it was definitely invented in China at one time (approximately).</em></p><br><p> Hosted on Acast.

      <description>Mitch McConnell has been our Senator since we were toddlers. We have thoughts. 
We're SO close to our first Patreon goal and hope that you'll find enough value in our discussions to contribute to the nuance! Come check out the secret garden of content!

North Korea launched an intercontinental ballistic missile, and the  Trump administration is considering U.S. options. We discuss how we'd handle this escalating situation if we were in the White House. 
Representative Clay Higgins  filmed himself discussing his public service in a gas chamber in Auschwitz. He has apologized. We reflect on whether we're losing our sense of sacred spaces. 
We discuss listener feedback on patriotism before turning to our thoughts on Kentucky Senator and Majority Leader Mitch McConnell. Believe it or not,  McConnell  used to be a moderate and even helped work toward passage of the Equal Rights Amendment. But the Senator has  built his career on tactical, rather than  legislative, achievements and is now seeking the  tactical victory of repealing the Affordable Care Act. We talk about what we've observed and hoped for in our Senator.

The Pearls
We discuss the President's vile tweets about  Mika Brzezinski and  CNN. We also talk about  lectureporn and its manifestation in a  recent HuffPo piece.

      <description>Senate Republicans say they’re going to fix the health care system by July 4th, but they won’t say how. A jury couldn’t convict Bill Cosby or the officer who shot Philander Castile, and we’re wondering about the effectiveness of all three branches of government.

      <description>Three very strange things happened this week: the Attorney General testified before the Senate Intelligence Committee; the Cabinet lavished praise on the President in a public meeting; and a man fired shots at Congressional Republicans during their baseball practice in what we've learned was a politically-motivated act of violence.

Coats and Rogers, along with Andrew McCabe and Rod Rosenstein, were unwilling to answer questions about their conversations with the President, prompting the ire of Senators like Angus King of Maine and

      <description>Sarah interviews Jason Silverstein, lecturer at Harvard Medical School and writer for Vice’s health channel Tonic, about global health, whether or not health care is a human right, and empathy in our societal lives. We talk about Jason's articles on the ridiculous way we talk about maternity care, the risk to families with terminally ill children, and the empathy gap on pain perception between races. We also mention this article in Marie Claire that addresses a similar problem for women and what all this means for the drug epidemic as recently covered by the New York Times.

We catch up on the news since our Tuesday episode: 

On Tuesday morning, the President tweeted that he had properly shared information with Russian officials in order to pressure them to join the fight against ISIS. 

We then learned that  Israel was the source of information shared with Russia. That's complicated, but we didn't have time to think about how complicated because...

The New York Times reported that  James Comey kept contemporaneous memos of conversations with President Trump, and that one of those memos details the President asking Comey to back off Michael Flynn. 

Meanwhile, the President met with the Turkish president, and  protestors were attacked outside the Turkish embassy. 

Also, a subpoena was issued for financial records related to a loan Paul  Manafort took out right after leaving the Trump campaign. 

Representative  Jason Chaffetz demanded to see all the Comey memos.

It will allow insurance companies to require people who have higher health care costs to contribute more to the insurance pool that helps offset all these costs, thereby reducing the cost to those people who lead good lives, they’re healthy, they’ve done the things to keep their bodies healthy. And right now, those are the people who have done things the right way that are seeing their costs skyrocketing.” We discuss the morality of healthy, as well as Blue Zones. Elizabeth Warren critiqued President Obama during an interview with the Guardian, “I think President Obama, like many others in both parties, talks about a set of big national statistics that look shiny and great but increasingly have giant blind spots,” she said. “That GDP, unemployment, no longer reflect the lived experiences of most Americans.

      <title>The Briefcase: Lightning Round</title>
      <link>https://play.acast.com/s/pantsuit-politics/thebriefcase-lightninground</link>
      <description>With Sarah in New Orleans and Beth in D.C., the sound in this episode isn't ideal, but we hope the substance is worth it. First, we talk about Beth's experience at Vox Conversations before moving into a lightening round conversation about the news of the week: 
 Michael Flynn's acceptance of payments from foreign governments
 The White House's release of a tax reform memo
 Efforts to resuscitate health care reform in the House
 President Obama's lucrative speaking gig
A federal judge enjoining President Trump's executive order on sanctuary cities
Our Friday feedback comes directly from our listeners who attended dinner in DC. 
Thanks for bearing with us through the audio! We'll be back on Tuesday with better sound and a robust discussion of the issues.

      <itunes:summary>With Sarah in New Orleans and Beth in D.C., the sound in this episode isn't ideal, but we hope the substance is worth it. First, we talk about Beth's experience at Vox Conversations before moving into a lightening round conversation about the news of the week: 
 Michael Flynn's acceptance of payments from foreign governments
 The White House's release of a tax reform memo
 Efforts to resuscitate health care reform in the House
 President Obama's lucrative speaking gig
A federal judge enjoining President Trump's executive order on sanctuary cities
Our Friday feedback comes directly from our listeners who attended dinner in DC. 
Thanks for bearing with us through the audio! We'll be back on Tuesday with better sound and a robust discussion of the issues.

      <title>Rehashing the Clinton Campaign</title>
      <link>https://play.acast.com/s/pantsuit-politics/rehashingtheclintoncampaign</link>
      <description>Today, we discuss the post-mortem looks at the Clinton campaign, along with Trump's first hundred days in office, the French election, and the looming deadline for funding the government. 
The Pearls
We're close to the end of the first hundred days of the Trump presidency, and it's becoming clear that President Trump has accomplished  some, but certainly not all of the items on his  Contract with the American Voter. While the  100 day marker is relatively artificial, it has become a flashpoint in journalism and analysis, and we think there's some merit to starting strong. 
The French voted over the weekend, with moderate Emmanuel Macron and nationalist Marine Le Pen emerging as the  top two candidates. They'll face off in June. Le Pen is widely seen as an extremist, and most French politicians are  quickly lining up to support Macron. 
Congress has until April 28 to pass a continuing resolution for funding the government. The Trump administration has made funding  contentious by  taking a hard line on its priorities. The administration is sharply focused on funding a  border wall and increasing military spending. 
Sarah extended her compliment for the other party this week to Representative Jamie Comer (and then added kudos for Joni Ernst following  remarks critical of President Trump for spending so much time away from the White House). Beth complimented Dick Durbin for his  nuanced take on Democratic candidates' positions on reproductive rights. 
The Suit
We discussed the conversation emerging from  Shattered: Inside Hillary Clinton's Doomed Campaign by Jonathan Allen and Amie Parnes. We think the focus should be less on  campaign infighting and drama and more on  what we can learn going forward. 
The Heels
Beth shares a little about her sister, Kimberly's, wedding, and we talk more about Sarah's house hunt.

Show Notes
First, in the Pearls, we discuss a  new law repealing an Obama-era rule on funding for Planned Parenthood. Sarah recommends this documentary on abortion. We also talk about the Trump administration's decision not to make White House  visitor logs public. For our compliments to the other side, Sarah compliments Republican governors in blue states (Massachusetts, Vermont, Maryland), who  tend to be enormously popular and effective. Beth was impressed by a  profile of Governor Dannell Malloy of Connecticut. 
In The Suit, we discuss North Korea. We recorded this episode prior to North Korea's failed missile test, but the question remains--how should the Trump administration respond to North Korea's weapons program? So far, the Trump administration has

Beth was impressed by a  profile of Governor Dannell Malloy of Connecticut. 
In The Suit, we discuss North Korea. We recorded this episode prior to North Korea's failed missile test, but the question remains--how should the Trump administration respond to North Korea's weapons program? So far, the Trump administration has

Show Notes
 
Jean's beginning thoughts on J.D. Vance and Hillbilly Elegy
"He is a bad source for what he is trying to get you to understand about these people. He is intrinsically different and always was because while the people he was talking about had the fuck it mentality, he didn't. he wanted out and knew it. he used the military as many often do to pull himself out. something that any of the others could do but dont because theyve already given up. like the bird that doesnt leave the cage when the doors open. He cant understand his own people and maybe thats why he comes off as judgy, because hes trying to tell a story from a mold he doesnt fit. My degree is in Psych, I have a deep rooted desire to understand why people think the way they do. I expected him to be a first hand source to aid in that understanding, but hes not. He is the outsider looking in at his own people because of that intrinsic difference between his drive and their lack of it, which means even he doesnt understand why they do and think the way they do.

Then in the Suit we discuss the military strike in Syria, and in the Heels, we’ll discuss what’s on our minds outside of politics this week.

Show Notes
We acknowledge the horrendous attacks in Sweden and Egypt.
 Sweden mourns 4 killed, 15 wounded in Stockholm truck attack
Palm Sunday bombings kill dozens at churches in Egypt
In our Kentucky-themed Pearls, we discuss Trump's recent actions on coal and the Saturday Night Live skit targeting Trump's Kentucky supporters.
Trump moves toward relief from water rule that threatens coal
 Trump signs law rolling back disclosure rule for energy and mining
We also discuss the Washington Post’s scathing editorial about Mitch McConnell.
We both compliment Senators from the other side who criticized the party line with regards to the recent rule change.
In the Suit, we respond to our listener Katie's concerns that "'peace through strength' is getting more and more antiquated with every generation."
We also share our previous views on Syria we both shared on Sarah's blog before the podcast began.

Palm Sunday bombings kill dozens at churches in Egypt
In our Kentucky-themed Pearls, we discuss Trump's recent actions on coal and the Saturday Night Live skit targeting Trump's Kentucky supporters.
Trump moves toward relief from water rule that threatens coal
 Trump signs law rolling back disclosure rule for energy and mining
We also discuss the Washington Post’s scathing editorial about Mitch McConnell.
We both compliment Senators from the other side who criticized the party line with regards to the recent rule change.
In the Suit, we respond to our listener Katie's concerns that "'peace through strength' is getting more and more antiquated with every generation."
We also share our previous views on Syria we both shared on Sarah's blog before the podcast began.

      <title>The Briefcase: Focus on Foreign Policy</title>
      <link>https://play.acast.com/s/pantsuit-politics/thebriefcase-focusonforeignpolicy</link>
      <description>Sarah returns to Pantsuit Politics on Tuesday's episode. For today's Briefcase, we have a special episode focused primarily on foreign policy. We're delighted to have Kerry Boyd Anderson on the podcast. Kerry is a political risk consultant with more than 14 years experience as a professional analyst of international security issues and Middle East political and business risks. She started her own company a year ago and is also a  contributor to Gulf News in Dubai. She was previously a Deputy Director for Advisory services with Oxford Analytica.  Kerry joins Beth for a discussion of the humanitarian, military, and political crisis unfolding in Syria. 
Then Dante, our Chief Creative Officer, takes a spin in Sarah's chair to discuss the news of the week and listener feedback. Beth and Dante talk about  President Trump's comments throughout the week, Ambassador  Nikki Haley's comments at the United Nations, and the White House's potentially shifting position on Syria. We then discuss North Korea's test missiles and  Rex Tillerson's strange response.  
Finally, we turn to the confirmation hearings for Judge Neil Gorsuch and discuss the  Democratic and  Republican positions with respect to the Supreme Court. 
We received great feedback this week and will save most of it for next week, but we had to address Sandy's question: 
I have yet to have an experience with regulations that was not literally "job creating" for me and/or rigor/responsibility-instigating. I cannot really trace back an example where a regulation has forced a company to make significant cuts or go under.  (I do, however, know of companies in the Chemical Engineering realm have utilized tax breaks intended for cleaner energy...but only did so in loop-hole/ethically questionable way...but maybe that's a different topic). Perhaps if I played out a scenario where the presence of regulations did make companies paralyzed (e.g. God forbid, if Honda leaked tons of antifreeze into storm water, knew about it, didn't report it ever, and then somehow owed a sum that would take them out), it feels like at that point such irresponsibility would have to be quite consequential.  
And I guess that's my question:  Why does this "anti-regulation" rhetoric exist? Does it have any grounds? Is it just a rallying cry? Some attempt to beef up some stocks or something?  
Once I stopped and thought about it in my own life experiences and realized it didn't match my life experiences, I got confused &amp; concerned. Thoughts? Love you ladies!
As always, we so appreciate the support...

      <link>https://play.acast.com/s/pantsuit-politics/thebriefcase-ivankasnewroleandpencesmarriage</link>
      <description>Before we got started, we thanked everyone for their patience as our feed repopulated. The good news is you can now go all the way back to our premiere episode in the feed! We talked about Ivanka's new role as special assistant to the president. We also discussed  the Washington Post's profile of Karen Pence and the controversy over several observations about the Vice President's marriage.    We praised the Senate Intelligence Committee for being the adults in the room. We discussed feedback from Brynn on the need to empathize with everyone. "So I’m finding myself constantly caught in this catch 22 where I want to emphasize with Trump supporters who feel betrayed, while at the same time fighting back the urge to just SCREAM “we told you so!”"
 Allison wrote in and wondered "if Ryan and the Republicans, instead of trying to appease the non-compromising Freedom Caucus, could try to reach out and work with moderate Democrats to draft and pass the bill?"  Also we shared a NY Times article "A Great New Accidental Renaissance" (link) from Megan and this fantastic quote. "It’s early, but we may be experiencing a great awakening for the humane values that are under siege by a dark-side presidency. People are going inward, to find something bigger than Trump, and outward, to limit the damage he inflicts on the country."

      <title>FISA, Flynn, and Failure</title>
      <link>https://play.acast.com/s/pantsuit-politics/fisa-flynn-andfailure</link>
      <description>We're talking about the FISA process, Retired General Michael Flynn, and the failure of the American Health Care Act. 
The Pearls
We comfort ourselves about our miserable election predictions by noting that we predicted that the American Health Care Act would not make it through the House of Representatives. And it didn't. Big winners: the American people for not being subjected to a half-baked, not-really-about-health-care-health-care-bill. Big losers:  Paul Ryan,  Donald Trump,  Republicans generally. 
Sadly, we have two incidents of violence to acknowledge. A British man, Khalid Masood, rammed his vehicle into a crowd at Westminster Bridge in London after stabbing a police officer. His  connections to Saudi Arabia have police still investigating his possible motives. On Sunday morning, a dispute escalated into a shooting in a Cincinnati, Ohio, night club, leaving one person dead and 15 injured. Our prayers are with everyone impacted in London and Cincinnati. 
For our compliments to the other party, Sarah tipped her hat to the  Freedom Caucus for standing their ground in opposition to the AHCA. Beth complimented the Democratic lawmakers behind the  Making Access Records Available to Lead American Government Openness Act (the MAR-A-LAGO Act), which would require the White House to publish its visitor logs and mandate the release of visitor logs when the President conducts business...elsewhere. 
The Suit
We start with a mini-primer on the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act ("FISA"), which was enacted in 1978 to protect Americans’ privacy in the midst of counter-terrorism efforts.  A law enforcement training white paper helped us significantly in understanding key provisions of FISA. FISA was enacted to limit the presidents' power and to create a judicially-manageable standard for issuing warrants in national security investigations. 
The key provisions of FISA were: 

Non-criminal electronic surveillance can only occur for the purpose of collecting foreign intelligence and foreign counterintelligence

Foreign powers and agents of foreign powers could be targeted for electronic surveillance (foreign powers and agents of foreign powers are defined in the statute—explicitly says “non US persons” — US persons are citizens, legal permanent residents, US corporations, unincorporated associates with a substantial number of members who are citizens or lawful permanent residents) 

The government needs probable cause to conduct surveillance (and set a probable cause standard)

Established foreign intelligence surveillance courts (FISC) at the district and appellate... Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

      <title>The Briefcase: A report from the ground</title>
      <link>https://play.acast.com/s/pantsuit-politics/thebriefcase-areportfromtheground</link>
      <description>We began by encouraging everyone to share the #trypod hashtag. The idea is to introduce someone who doesn’t listen to podcasts to the medium. Show them how to do it and obviously subscribe them to Pantsuit Politics!
We began by discussing  FBI Director James Comey's testimony before Congress confirming that the FBI is investigation whether or not President Trump’s campaign colluded with Russia to influence the election. We also discussed the AP's revelation that  Paul Manafort, former Trump campaign manager, was paid millions by a Putin ally.
Karen on Twitter had a great read of the situation: Illegality all around T. He was likely influenced by ppl with specific agendas tailored to appeal to his world view and vanity and so he is influenced. Also think he probably willfully "ignorant" of crimes around him but I bet we will never be able to pin any intentional criminal activity on him.
We then shared Beth's interview with Katherine Gypson, reporter for Voice of America, who was in the room for both Comey's testimony and Representative Devin Nunnes's press conference. 
We discussed Judge Gorsuch's confirmation hearings and  growing concerns about his views on torture and statements about women at law firms. We also discussed the Democratic party's plans to filibuster his confirmation. 
We moved on to talk about  two abortion laws that recently passed in Texas and several pieces of feedback we've gotten related to abortion. 
We talked about the proposed  Reins Act and whether or not the Congress really needs approval over so much regulation. We wrapped up with feedback from Shannon on the difference between how we discuss terrorism when the terrorist is white.

      <title>Our Empathy Deficit</title>
      <link>https://play.acast.com/s/pantsuit-politics/ourempathydeficit</link>
      <description>In the Pearls, we discussed President Trump's proposed budget.  The big winners under this budget were the Departments of Defense and Homeland Security, as well as Veteran's Affairs. The biggest loser was the Environmental Protection Agency, as well as nineteen other agencies that Trump proposed elimination. Beth argued that this budget shows diplomacy is not a priority for President Trump as it also includes cuts to the State Department and reductions in foreign aid. 
Inexplicably, healthcare companies such as drug makers and device makers will pay more than twice as much in 2018 to have their medical products reviewed for approval by the Food and Drug Administration under the proposed budget. The proposal budgets over $2 billion in fees to be collected from industry, twice as much in 2017. This doesn't seem to fit the increasingly loud narrative of reducing health care costs. 
We then moved on to compliment the other side.  Sarah had big praise two Texas Congressmen who hit the road for a bipartisan road trip. Beth praised Representative Rodney Moore for his eloquent advocacy for charter schools.
In the Suit, we discussed the fiery response on social media to Sarah's photo of a local church bulletin board featuring  the viral photo of Omran Daqneesh, a 5-year-old Syrian child. The caption seems to imply all the little boy needs is Christianity in his life and this position left many of you angry and seemed to reflect a growing disenchantment with religion itself. 
We discussed our own frustrations and history with organized religion and what those ideas can (and cannot) mean when it comes to politics. Do Americans suffer from an empathy deficit? What does it mean to be empathetic?
Sarah had high praise for Krista Tippet's expanded audio edition of Becoming Wise, which addresses the interplay between spirituality, religion, and politics incredibly well. 
Beth discussed  a wonderful Washington Post article that illustrated the difference in approach between empathy and entitlement in immigrants versus natural-born citizens. She also shared Anne Lamott's recent Facebook reflection.
As well as one of her favorite lines from The Invitation by Oriah Mountain dreamer which states simply, "I want to know if you can sit with pain, mine or your own, without moving to hide it, or fade it, or fix it." 
We ended the show in The Heels by lightening things up a bit with talk of real estate and Designated Survivor.

      <description>This week, Americans are squarely confronting the rights and responsibilities of our government, our citizens, and our fellow humans. With the travel ban, news from the intelligence community, and the AHCA, we’re asking what we exactly we do and do not owe to someone else’s babies. 
The Travel Ban
A federal district judge in Hawaii enjoined enforcement of President Trump's revised executive order on immigration. We recap  the decision: 
The plaintiffs were seeking a nationwide temporary restraining order. They had to establish

Standing (similar to state of Washington in 9th Circuit decision + tourism; the Court also held that an individual plaintiff had standing to challenge the order)

Strong likelihood of success on the merits of the Establishment Clause claims

The Court extensively quoted statements from then-candidate Trump, Rudy Giuliani, and Stephen Miller regarding the intention of the executive order. "The Government has established a disfavored religion." The Court also found that the executive order does not achieve its stated national security objectives because citizenship, according to the DHS, is an "unlikely indicator" of terrorism threats. 
Under the Lemon test, the Court held that the government could not show that the order has a primarily secular purpose. The Court also rejected the Government's claim that the executive order does not discriminate against Muslims because it does not apply to all countries with majority-Muslim populations, saying, “The notion that one can demonstrate animus toward any group of people only by targeting all of them at once is fundamentally flawed. The court declines to relegate its Establishment Clause analysis to a purely mathematical exercise."
The Court held that the plaintiffs would likely suffer irreparable harm without a temporary restraining order. Sarah fully agrees with the Court's analysis. Beth, while taking serious issue with the executive order, thinks the Court's analysis, particularly on standing, is very thin and problematic. 
Other News
We discuss the Justice Department's  indictment of two Russian spies and two criminal hackers in connection with the breach of 500 million Yahoo accounts in 2014, and we wonder how the administration will respond. 
Senators Richard Burr and Mark Warner announced this week that  there is no indication that the government surveilled Trump Tower before the election.  Sean Spicer then told the press that a British intelligence agency, GCHQ, actually did the spying. GCHQ responded by saying that Spicer's allegations are  "utterly ridiculous."

      <title>Repeal and Replace: The American Health Care Act</title>
      <link>https://play.acast.com/s/pantsuit-politics/repealandreplace-theamericanhealthcareact</link>
      <description>Republicans have been saying "repeal and replace" for seven years. Today, we're talking about their proposal, the American Health Care Act, to repeal and replace the Affordable Care Act. 
The Pearls (our quick discussions at important stories of the week) 
Attorney General Jeff Sessions  requested the resignation of 46 United States Attorneys this week. Though  it is not unprecedented for new administrations to transition personnel in the Department of Justice, the Trump administration's approach seemed unnecessarily graceless. The U.S. Attorney for the Southern District of New York, Preet Bharara, was especially taken aback by the Trump administration's move, refused to resign, and was ultimately fired.
We also discussed two thought-provoking pieces on how we take in information. A recent study concluded that Breitbart dominated right-wing media during the 2016 election, creating an ecosystem of thought that altered the broader media agenda. We discuss our thoughts on Breitbart as a nationalist and populist outlet, rather than a conservative one, and on what we see as asymmetric polarization. In connection with exiting the echo chamber, Sarah recommended PolitEcho and Escape Your Bubble. 
The second piece is a fascinating experiment in gender roles.  An NYU professor recreated parts of the debates between Trump and Clinton using a woman actor to play Trump and a male actor to play Clinton. Aside from the gender swap, the language, gestures, and tones of voice exactly mimicked Trump and Clinton during the debates. The results surprised the NYU audiences, and we were surprised by our reactions.
As always, we took a moment to compliment the other party. Beth complimented Congresswoman Debbie Dingell for her measured comments on health care reform. Sarah complimented  Rep. Jim Sensenbrenner for his willingness to hold town halls and address constituent concerns. 
The Suit (our closer look at a single topic): 
Following the November 2016 elections, Beth said that Republicans would have to step up and actually govern now because having an undivided government means there are no excuses. The American Health Care Act is Republicans' first real shot at actually governing, and we're not impressed. 
First, we discuss the strategy of beginning the legislative agenda with health care when immigration or tax reform seem like more logical choices that would set the stage for health care reform. We also discuss the rushed, secretive process to create the bill and the hypocrisy in  pushing... Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

      <title>The Briefcase: Transparency, Wikileaks, and Listener Feedback</title>
      <link>https://play.acast.com/s/pantsuit-politics/thebriefcase-transparency-wikileaks-andlistenerfeedback</link>
      <description>We discuss Noah Dyer - candidate for governor in Arizona -  who posted a VERY transparent statement on his sex life on his website. Is total transparency something we want? Wikileaks certainly does. We discuss  the trove of documents allegedly showing the CIA's cyber hacking capacity and technologies. We also discuss Assange's belief that  total transparency is the goal.  We follow up on some feedback from  our Book Club discussion with Brynn who shared: I have tried SO. HARD.  since the election to "reach across the aisle" and talk to people like this. But now, 120 days later, I am done. Do I condone physical or verbal aggression towards these people? Of course not. But if they are not willing to see that their views are truly HATEFUL then I don't know what else I can do. At this point I say we just press on without them if they aren't willing to abandon Radical Christian Extremism, embrace public education and accept facts as truth. Because there HAS to be some kind of line in the sand. We cannot keep making excuses for them or analyzing them like we're anthropologists forever. WE (all rational people of any political leaning) have to take a collective stand and tell them NO.    We also discussed our listener Chiara's argument that maybe we do want the President to fail. Chiara wrote us, " I was thinking about how, on the latest episode, you said that you aren't rooting for Trump to fail because you have respect for the office of the president. That's actually something I've been thinking about a lot too...but for me, I'm starting to think that I AM rooting for him to fail...but for the same reason: because I respect the office of the presidency. The truth is, if Trump succeeds, it will inevitably send the message that it is entirely okay for the American people to elect a president who is racist, sexist, bigoted, possibly engaged in illegal activities, and not at all knowledgeable about government or world affairs. If Trump succeeds, people will see that if such a person is elected, everything will be fine. And I don't think that's okay. So I don't want that message to be sent, lest he get re-elected (or we end up with a similar president in the future). It's the same as with President Obama, at least if we're going entirely on identity. Even though I didn't agree with all of his policies, his successful presidency demonstrated that a black, feminist community organizer/constitutional lawyer could do the job relatively well. And I believe that is a great thing, and fundamental to his legacy." We also shared Amanda's thoughts on educated v. expert. "I wonder whether, when we're talking about the value of ideas, we shouldn't put a premium on expertise rather than education alone. They very often come hand in hand, but this leaves the door open for more people, allows more of us into the conversation. It allows both the economics professor and the lifelong welfare recipient to be heard because in different ways, they're both experts. When it comes to crafting policy, things get more complicated (this way of looking at expertise won't be of much use when it come, to dealing with global warming, for example), but I think it provides an okay framework for dealing with certain types of emotional arguments.   Of course, this doesn't shed much light on the...

Chiara wrote us, " I was thinking about how, on the latest episode, you said that you aren't rooting for Trump to fail because you have respect for the office of the president. That's actually something I've been thinking about a lot too...but for me, I'm starting to think that I AM rooting for him to fail...but for the same reason: because I respect the office of the presidency. The truth is, if Trump succeeds, it will inevitably send the message that it is entirely okay for the American people to elect a president who is racist, sexist, bigoted, possibly engaged in illegal activities, and not at all knowledgeable about government or world affairs. If Trump succeeds, people will see that if such a person is elected, everything will be fine. And I don't think that's okay. So I don't want that message to be sent, lest he get re-elected (or we end up with a similar president in the future). It's the same as with President Obama, at least if we're going entirely on identity. Even though I didn't agree with all of his policies, his successful presidency demonstrated that a black, feminist community organizer/constitutional lawyer could do the job relatively well. And I believe that is a great thing, and fundamental to his legacy." We also shared Amanda's thoughts on educated v. expert. "I wonder whether, when we're talking about the value of ideas, we shouldn't put a premium on expertise rather than education alone. They very often come hand in hand, but this leaves the door open for more people, allows more of us into the conversation. It allows both the economics professor and the lifelong welfare recipient to be heard because in different ways, they're both experts. When it comes to crafting policy, things get more complicated (this way of looking at expertise won't be of much use when it come, to dealing with global warming, for example), but I think it provides an okay framework for dealing with certain types of emotional arguments.   Of course, this doesn't shed much light on the...

      <description>We bemoan the chaotic state of the news and try to tackle the highlights from the past few days' headlines. We discuss President Trump's frequent (and expensive) trips to Mar-a-Lago. Beyond the conflicts of interest, watching members of the club post pictures during what seemingly was a security crisis bother us and many others. 
We also discuss National Security Council Advisor Mike Flynn's resignation and President Trump's inability to take contradictory advice.

      <title>Testing President Trump</title>
      <link>https://play.acast.com/s/pantsuit-politics/testingpresidenttrump</link>
      <description>First up, Trump and Kellyanne fight with Nordstrom. Trump earlier this week tweeted that "My daughter Ivanka has been treated so unfairly by @Nordstrom. She is a great person – always pushing me to do the right thing! Terrible!" (And it was retweeted by the official @POTUS account) 
Then, Kellyanne stated on Fox &amp; Friends: "Go buy Ivanka's stuff, is what I would tell you," Conway said. "It's a wonderful line. I own some of it. I fully -- I'm going to just, I'm going to give a free commercial here: Go buy it today, everybody. You can find it online."
The comments could run afoul of a federal law that bars public employees from making an "endorsement of any product, service or enterprise, or for the private gain of friends, relatives, or persons with whom the employee is affiliated in a nongovernmental capacity."
James Nuzzo, a legal scholar and founder of the Colchester Group consulting firm, took a closer look at President Trump's tweet and noticed something very important was missing: Specifics. All the tweet accuses Nordstrom of "doing" is being "very unfair," Nuzzo points out. Any lawsuit the company brings against Mr. Trump would have almost no chance of success. Moreover, the U.S. Supreme Court has made it clear that only factual misrepresentation, in other words specific lies — not opinion — would be considered libel or slander. And the tweet almost seems to have been crafted very wisely with that precedent in mind. Someone saying another person or company is "unfair" is almost the definition of an opinion as "fairness" cannot really be defined legally or otherwise. In short, don't expect President Trump to get a slap on the wrist or any other kind of slap from the courts over this.
Congress is a different matter. A much stronger argument could be made that Congress could officially censure President Trump for his conduct connected to the tweet against Nordstrom and several others like it that specifically attacked or demeaned businesses and individuals.
Plus, we ask  Just how much trouble is Michael Flynn in? and talk about North Korea conducts ballistic missile test.
In the Suit, we talk about Washington v. Trump and do our best to summarize the decision. 

The procedural history of 9th Circuit decision: 

A. The state of Washington went to federal district court asking for a temporary restraining order (TRO). When a hearing happens, Washington wants a declaration that the order is illegal and unconstitutional and permanently enjoined from enforcement. (Minnesota jumped in as a plaintiff, too)The District Judge granted that TRO. The President asked the 9th circuit to stay the TRO. So, Washington said, “STOP enforcing this EO until a full hearing can happen.” The district court did. Then the President said to the circuit court “stop the district court’s order stopping my order until a full hearing can happen. And the 9th circuit said, “nope, we’re going with that restraining order.” 

Standing — cases and controversies — you can only bring a lawsuit if you have a particular and specific, non-theoretical injury that a court could actually redress. The states of Washington and Minnesota said that they were harmed because the EO kept people from coming to their public universities and the states are... Hosted on Acast.

      <description>We gave our best efforts to focus The Pearls on non-election events (by focusing on the FBI's thwarting of a bombing in Kansas, violence in Baghdad, a gun manufacturer liability ruling, and the Wells Fargo fallout). But, the 2016 race pulled us back in. In The Suit, we talk about the role of the Supreme Court today and how Trump and Clinton might approach the court. Finally, in The Heels, we talk about much-needed self-care during the election season.

      <title>Special Episode: Alex Merced on Libertarianism</title>
      <link>https://play.acast.com/s/pantsuit-politics/specialepisode-alexmercedonlibertarianism</link>
      <description>In this special episode, Beth interviews libertarian candidate for U.S. Senate (New York) Alex Merced. Alex talks about his background, why he's a libertarian, the current presidential and his positions on a "lightening round" of issues.
Here's what you should know about Alex: 
Name: Alex Merced - Libertarian Party US Senate Candidate (NY)
Age: 31
Married to wife for 2 years (together for 7 years)
Profession: Corporate Trainer in Financial Industry, former retail store owner (Gamers Lounge in Bowling Green, oh), Podcaster/blogger, event promoter, social media consultant
Education: BA from Bowling Green State University
If Elected Would Be...
- Youngest Serving US Senator (dethroning Tom Cotton)
- First Puerto Rican or Guatemalan Elected US Senate
- First Libertarian Elected to US Senate
Main issues:
- Rolling Back Regime Change to reduce new
Instability abroad
- Ending the drug war and the overcriminalization and violence that comes with it
- Increasing families disposable incomes and ability to save with tax reforms and reforming the policy drivers of inflation in healthcare, housing and education
- increasing visibility of Transgender issues and using the pulpit to bring attention to suicide, homelessness, and structural unemployment within the transgender community (have very close transgender issues, so this is more a personal thing than a policy issue)
Economic Policy Proposals:
- Rainy Day Account: rolling IRAs, HSAs, Coverdells into one tax favored savings account for all of life's events such as Unemployment, education, retirement, healthcare, parental leave, etc.
- The America Corp: a new corporate designation with 0% corporate tax rate but requires all assets and employees be in the US and that employees vote for one member of the board of directors to give labor more of a seat in corporate governance.
- 20% flat tax: instead of a complex tax code and complex web of aid programs, have a 20% flat tax with a refundable tax credit that will provide aid to anyone for anything. The amount of the tax credit amount changes with age (25k 18-26,65+ - 10k 27-64)
Interesting facts:
- Son of a immigrant from Guatemala in which regime change created instability in the 1950s which led to decades of civil wars and dictators and has contributed to the frustrations over the border (stability abroad effects border security, so regime change is very much against the countries national interests)
- parents are divorced so mainly raised by mother who after divorced lived in poverty working multiple part time jobs, going to school, raising two kids but worked her way to the middle class by the time I was 18 and has been my inspiration for my belief that anything is possible with hard work and determination
- grew up in suburban CT, went to school in Rural Ohio, and has lived in urban NYC so has experience the different setting Americans live in

      <title>Season 2, Episode 19: Trustees or Delegates?</title>
      <link>https://play.acast.com/s/pantsuit-politics/season2-episode19-trusteesordelegates-</link>
      <description>In the wake of Congress passing, overriding President Obama's veto on, and then regretting the Justice Against Sponsors of Terrorism Act, we're examining the roles of our representatives. In 2016, should our leaders act as trustees, exercising independent judgment, or delegates, conforming to the will of the populace? But first, we talk about Colombian voters' rejection of the FARC peace agreement, the continued violence and breakdown of diplomacy in Syria, and, of course, Donald Trump's taxes. We end on a much lighter note: Sarah's trip to Disney World. Can you help her family find a better trip hashtag? 
Show Notes:
Colombian Voters Reject FARC Peace Deal
Diplomacy Breakdown in Syria
Donald Trump's Taxes
International Lawyers: Don't Let Americans Sue Saudi Arabia
The Consequences of JASTA
Congress Somehow Blames President Obama for JASTA
The Unbelievable Idiocy of Congress
Trustees vs. Delegates
Majority Vote Rules: Advocating for the Delegate Model
The Reality of Modern Representation
Was Obama vs. Romney a Trustee vs. Delegate Contest?
Trustee vs. Delegate: A False Binary?

      <link>https://play.acast.com/s/pantsuit-politics/season2-episode14-thebriefcase-toughconversations</link>
      <description>In this episode of the Briefcase, we discuss what listeners are teaching us about gender and race in our conversations. 
Since Dante isn't on the episode for this discussion, we wanted to share his sentiments: 
 
I'm so glad my presence on the show inspired people to reach out to us, both in positive and critical ways. It's helped reaffirm that this show is and will always be about our listeners. I know this because until very recently I was one, and I know how much this show means to me and all of us. I've always learned from our community and will continue to do so to make this the best show it can possibly be. Y'all, never stop bringing that passion because as soon as that stops we've got a much bigger problem than a man crashing the Pantsuit Politics party. Smooches. - Dante.

      <description>Peter Drucker famously said that "culture eats strategy for breakfast." We take a look at the role of culture in this election season by discussing Hillary Clinton's "basket of deplorables" comments and sharing our interview with Nikki Johnson-Huston, attorney, advocate, and the author of "The Culture of the Smug White Liberal." We also briefly cover the cease-fire in Syria, how September 11 influences our generation, and the "life-changing" power of paring things down.  Hosted on Acast.

      <description>In this episode, we discuss Congressional term limits. What problems would they solve? What problems would they create? And where do they belong on the #crazymoderate agenda? First, in the Pearls, we get excited (or maybe "prepared" is a better word) for the upcoming Presidential debates, cover the United Nations report on violence in Syria, and, as always, offer our compliments to the other party. Finally, in the Heels, we discuss the best things we've eaten lately.  Hosted on Acast.

      <link>https://play.acast.com/s/pantsuit-politics/season2-episode5-pragmatismvs.idealism</link>
      <description>After briefly reviewing the weeks' major economic policy speeches from Hillary Clinton and Donald Trump, we dive into a discussion of whether and to what extent ethics in politics still matter. Should politicians be judged by voters on the ways they use power, or should we, as Sarah likes to say, stop hating the players and hate the game? We talk about ethical judgments of Hillary Clinton, Donald Trump, and third parties. In The Heels, we talk about our newfound interests in bullet journaling.  Hosted on Acast.

      <title>Incredible Action: Erin Miller and the Recognition of WASPs</title>
      <link>https://play.acast.com/s/pantsuit-politics/incredibleaction-erinmillerandtherecognitionofwasps</link>
      <description>We're speaking at Podcast Movement in Chicago this week, so we are thrilled to have two great interviews to share with you. In this episode, we talk with Erin Miller about her amazing journey to have her grandmother, Elaine Danforth Harmon, buried at Arlington National Cemetary. Harmon, a Women Airforce Service Pilot during World War II, wanted her service recognized as it would have been if she were a man. Erin and her family organized and advocated, leading to the unanimous passage of a bill that allows WASPs to be buried at Arlington. We are inspired by Erin's action and honored to share her story.
In The Pearls, Beth shares her essay, Humanity First, on terrorism following the harrowing attacks in Bangladesh and Iraq this week. Finally, in the Heels, we reflect on Independence Day and the privilege and responsibility of participating in a democracy.

      <title>Progress Made and Progress Lost: Politics and Rape Culture</title>
      <link>https://play.acast.com/s/pantsuit-politics/progressmadeandprogresslost-politicsandrapeculture</link>
      <description>Pantsuit Politics Family: We recorded this episode early Sunday morning before much was known about the tragedy at Pulse in Orlando. We will attempt to discuss more about the complexities of this act of terror, hate crime, and mass shooting at another time. For now, our hearts are with every person impacted. 
We are emotionally drained this week. In the Pearls, Sarah gets to celebrate the nomination of Hillary Clinton and President Obama's and Elizabeth Warren's endorsements. We then sadly turn our attention to violence in Tel Aviv and Orlando. We applaud the bravery of two Texas valedictorians who used their platforms to discuss our broken immigration system. Then, in The Suit, we discuss the Stanford case as a starting point for talking about rape culture and how we move forward. Finally, in The Heels, we talk about Made in America and how our lives are becoming history. 
Show Notes: 
Hillary Clinton's Nomination
 The Obama and Warren Endorsements
 A Victory for the Women's Movement vs. A Victory for Women
 The Tel Aviv Attack
 Status of Tel Aviv Victims 
 Texas Valedictorian Addresses Immigration
 A Huge Myth About Rape on College Campuses 
 What the Stanford Rape Case Can Teach our Sons
 What the Stanford Rape Case Tells Us About Rape Culture
 Disappointed and Not Surprised
 The Stanford Victim's Letter 
 Joe Biden's Response
Video: Victim-Blaming Makes No Sense 
Made in America

      <itunes:subtitle>The same week that brought us the first woman nominated by a major party for president also brought us the shameful sentencing of a college rapist.</itunes:subtitle>
      <itunes:summary>Pantsuit Politics Family: We recorded this episode early Sunday morning before much was known about the tragedy at Pulse in Orlando. We will attempt to discuss more about the complexities of this act of terror, hate crime, and mass shooting at another time. For now, our hearts are with every person impacted. 
We are emotionally drained this week. In the Pearls, Sarah gets to celebrate the nomination of Hillary Clinton and President Obama's and Elizabeth Warren's endorsements. We then sadly turn our attention to violence in Tel Aviv and Orlando. We applaud the bravery of two Texas valedictorians who used their platforms to discuss our broken immigration system. Then, in The Suit, we discuss the Stanford case as a starting point for talking about rape culture and how we move forward. Finally, in The Heels, we talk about Made in America and how our lives are becoming history.

Hillary Clinton's Nomination
 The Obama and Warren Endorsements
 A Victory for the Women's Movement vs. A Victory for Women
 The Tel Aviv Attack

      <description>Inspired by a message from our listener, Lindsay, this episode tackles how to talk through political disagreement. Beth discusses the importance of engagement and some tips for hearing and understanding others in The Suit. First, in the Pearls, Beth talks about the Libertarian Party's convention, the State Department IG report on Hillary Clinton's emails, Memorial Day, and President Obama's historic visit to Hiroshima. In the Heels, Beth talks about her new obsession with Alone on The History Channel. Since Sarah is enjoying some family time this week, we conclude with an interview with Chris Chidzick, a PredictIt data analyst on how political prediction markets work.  Hosted on Acast.

      <description>The Democratic Party seems far from unifying after a contentious Nevada state party convention. Donald Trump seems to have a long and complicated history with sexist behavior. Oklahoma seems to have forgotten a little decision called Roe v. Wade. 
But on a positive note... it also seems Sarah is on her way to becoming the next Paducah City Commissioner!

      <description>In this episode, we briefly take a look at the McCain and Ayotte Senate races before diving into Election Reform. We talk about first-past-the-post voting in the primaries and the general election, the primary calendar, and the electoral college. And, of course, no discussion of election reform is complete without a little campaign finance (spoiler: we almost subtitled this episode, "Beth Says Unpopular Things") and gerrymandering conversation. In The Heels, in honor of National Poetry Month, we share two of our favorites. 
We always love your feedback, and now there's a new way to contact us. Leave a message at 859-268-2330 to make an appearance in the Friday feedback section of the Briefcase.

      <link>https://play.acast.com/s/pantsuit-politics/anopen-heartedcampaign-aninterviewwithselluswilder</link>
      <description>We're so excited to share our interview with Sellus Wilder, who is seeking the Democrat's nomination to the United States Senate in Kentucky. He's a Pantsuit Politics kind of candidate--he's campaigning with his entire heart, fueled by his desire to have an honest conversation with voters about making our state and our nation healthier. 
In the Pearls, we discuss the presidential race with a focus on process. While we have frustrations with the current process from different angles, our common ground is this--we all have to get involved! Finally, in the Heels, we chat about our fun weekends in Gatlinburg (Sarah) and Cincinnati (Beth). You might need a corn fritter or steak after listening.

      <link>https://play.acast.com/s/pantsuit-politics/letstalktrade</link>
      <description>Anti-globalization sentiments underlie some of the populism shaping this presidential cycle. In this episode, we discuss trade and the absence of nuance in trade discussions (Note: if you're brand new to discussing trade, you might like to check out our bonus episode: Pantsuit Primer). In The Pearls, we talk about a few key senate races in 2016, the nuclear summit, and the release of the #PanamaPapers. Finally, we return to our very strong feelings about dessert.  Hosted on Acast.

      <itunes:subtitle>Beyond Donald Trump and the circus of the 2016 presidential primary lies a big, complex world. Today, we take a look at how big americans really want that world to be.</itunes:subtitle>
      <itunes:summary>Anti-globalization sentiments underlie some of the populism shaping this presidential cycle. In this episode, we discuss trade and the absence of nuance in trade discussions (Note: if you're brand new to discussing trade, you might like to check out our bonus episode: Pantsuit Primer). In The Pearls, we talk about a few key senate races in 2016, the nuclear summit, and the release of the #PanamaPapers. Finally, we return to our very strong feelings about dessert.  Hosted on Acast.

      <title>The Briefcase: SO much Listener Feedback</title>
      <link>https://play.acast.com/s/pantsuit-politics/thebriefcase-somuchlistenerfeedback</link>
      <description>In this episode of The Briefcase, we discuss Friday Feedback from so many listeners: Vielka, Bryn, Rachel, and Obie on college and school dress codes; Katie on Hillary Clinton and women in leadership; and Megan on the Oregon standoff. Additionally, we promise to devote Tuesday's episode to populism, Trump, and Sanders based on a series of topics from Nickie. 
Additionally, we discuss the "hot mic" audio from a Donald Trump interview with Joe Scarborough and Mika Brezenski. Our listener Kedar flagged this for us, and it led to so many questions: In this media environment, what are the rules? What are journalists? And, what are we?

      <title>The Briefcase: Should I Be With Her?</title>
      <link>https://play.acast.com/s/pantsuit-politics/thebriefcase-shouldibewithher-</link>
      <description>On this episode of The Briefcase, we give a giant shoutout and thank you to Jacquie, Caitlin, and Sharon for supporting Pantsuit Politics. We received a ton of great feedback this week and appreciate every email, tweet, and Facebook message. We briefly discuss Lou's feedback on asymmetric polarization and the Supreme Court. At Loree's request, we talk about Jeb's "America" photo. We lament Nikki Haley's endorsement of Marco Rubio and the state of the Republican horserace. Finally, thanks to listener Michael, we consider identity politics and how much it should matter, if at all, that Hillary Clinton would be the first woman to be president.

      <itunes:summary>On this episode of The Briefcase, we give a giant shoutout and thank you to Jacquie, Caitlin, and Sharon for supporting Pantsuit Politics. We received a ton of great feedback this week and appreciate every email, tweet, and Facebook message. We briefly discuss Lou's feedback on asymmetric polarization and the Supreme Court. At Loree's request, we talk about Jeb's "America" photo. We lament Nikki Haley's endorsement of Marco Rubio and the state of the Republican horserace. Finally, thanks to listener Michael, we consider identity politics and how much it should matter, if at all, that Hillary Clinton would be the first woman to be president.

      <link>https://play.acast.com/s/pantsuit-politics/ourhair-sonfire</link>
      <description>Our listener Susan inspired the title of this episode. We recap two crazy debates and the even crazier (and, let’s be honest, inappropriate) reactions to Justice Scalia’s death and the process to nominate his successor. In the Suit (inspired by our listener Bailey) we discuss why we affiliate with our respective parties and what we think becomes of the parties after the 2016 race. Finally, in the Heels, we talk about the women in political media who inspire us.  Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

      <description>In this crazy-special episode, we interview Mark McKinnon, co-executive producer, co-creator, and co-host of Showtime’s The Circus: Inside the Greatest Political Show on Earth. Mark shares perspective from three decades of political experience, talks with us about The Circus, and generally inspires us to step up in the political arena. Also, we recap the GOP Debate, discuss controversial comments from Madeleine Albright and Gloria Steinem, and offer our New Hampshire predictions. Finally, in The Heels, it’s all Beyoncé. Fasten your seatbelts--there’s a lot of nuance coming your way.

      <title>Political Correctness: Much Ado about Something</title>
      <link>https://play.acast.com/s/pantsuit-politics/politicalcorrectness-muchadoaboutsomething</link>
      <description>This week, Sarah and Beth react to the recent Republican and Democratic debates before tackling what is arguably a key driver in this presidential cycle: political correctness. Have we gone too far in trying to be PC, or have we turned political correctness into shorthand for something else entirely? And what does this have to do with The Donald? 
In the Heels, we share our favorite subscription services. 
Side note: We apologize for the small audio issues in The Pearls. Luckily, we had it sorted out by The Heels!

      <title>Our PREMIERE episode!</title>
      <link>https://play.acast.com/s/pantsuit-politics/ourpremiereepisode-</link>
      <description>Beth and I are so excited to launch our new podcast Pantsuit Politics on Election Day! We couldn't find a program that brought a nuanced perspective to today's current events and political issues... so we decided to create one. 
We're going to start every episode with a discussion of the week's news - a segment we're calling The Pearls. For our main segment The Suit, we'll discuss one major issue or story. Finally, in The Heels, we'll share something fun making our lives better - not politically or news related. 
We hope you enjoy our premiere episode here or subscribe on iTunes! A huge thank you to Nicholas, Sarah's husband, for signing up to be our executive producer!
