In this episode, Scott welcomes Chanel Rion, former White House Chief Correspondent for One America News Network (OAN). She now hosts her own show on OAN called "Fine Point with Chanel Rion." Chanel earned her degree in international relations from Harvard, and since then she has been at the center of exposing some of the most impactful stories in recent politics and has special insight into the transformation of America's media and the news that’s emanating from the White House. They have a great conversation about where we are with America's news and journalism, censorship, and her views on how to restore the media' most crucial role: holding the powerful accountable.

Senior Fellow Judy Shelton, author of Good as Gold talks about President Trump's economic decisions on tariffs. She says the grand theme is the transition of the economy that is dependent on the government, to one that thrives on its own, delivering prosperity to Americans. A peace dividend could also come if the war in Ukraine is ended, she says.

Research Fellow Jonathan Bean and contributors from the updated edition of Race & Liberty in America: The Essential Reader gathered for a rigorous and thought-provoking conversation. They tackle controversial topics such as immigration, “systemic” racism, and the politics of intermarriage. They also explore how classical liberal values—championed by figures like Frederick Douglass, Zora Neale Hurston, and Louis Marshall—have long provided a blueprint for a thriving multi-ethnic society.

What exactly are tariffs, and how do they work? How do they drive up prices? Are tariffs a way to protect the U.S. economy from hostile powers like the Communist Party of China? No, not really. Or a way to protect the supply chains on which U.S. military supremacy depends? No, not that either. In short, tariffs are toxic, and we discuss why that is.
