In the Tank

The Heartland Institute’s Jim Lakely, Chris Talgo, and Jack McPherrin present episode 428 of the In The Tank Podcast. By a 4-3 vote, a Democrat dominated Colorado Supreme Court removed Donald Trump from the primary ballot in that state for being guilty of “insurrection” against the United States. This is the first time a clause of the 14th Amendment has ever been applied. Is it warranted? And is this just the start? Rumors are Michigan, a genuine swing state, will follow. The ITT crew will also discuss a new poll we commissioned with Rasmussen about voter fraud in the 2020 election and what punishment Trump deserves for not accepting the results of that election.

The Heartland Institute’s Jim Lakely, Chris Talgo, Linnea Lueken, and special guest Jason Isaac of the Texas Public Policy Foundation present episode 422 of The In the Tank podcast. The Biden administration is continuing to mandate the electrification of everything while at the same time pulling offline the reliable and affordable power generation and transmission that would make it remotely possible. And this is a global delusion, not just a growing problem in the United States. Energy prices are skyrocketing and the “green energy” industry is now demanding even more government handouts – and permission to hike prices even more – to keep the scam going. But are we seeing signs that a rapid collapse of the scam is near? Investments in “alternative energy” companies took off in 2020, but all those gains are now gone. General Electric announced that it will post $1 billion in losses in its wind division. The S&P Global Clean Energy Index is down more than 30 percent this year and still dropping. Siemens, one of the premier German manufacturers of wind turbines, saw its stock price crash by nearly 40 percent in one day last week and now wants a 15-billion-euros handout from the German government. It also appears that “Big Oil” is giving up on pretending to be a part of the “green energy” future and is consolidating to produce even more oil and gas in the future. And in signs that the EV bubble is collapsing, Ford announced that it lost $1.3 billion in its EV division during the third quarter of 2023 – which translates into a loss of $62,016 for each of the 20,962 EVs it sold during the period. The CEO of Mercedes Benz said of the glut of EVs on the market that the public doesn’t want: “I can hardly imagine the current status quo is fully sustainable for everybody.” Even Elon Musk is warning that demand is just not there for this massive, government-driven push for EVs. Joining us to talk about all this is Jason Isaac, senior fellow of Life:Powered, a national initiative of the Texas Public Policy Foundation and co-author of the brand new report: “Overcharged Expectations: Unmasking the True Cost of Electric Vehicles.” With government so invested with OUR MONEY in these schemes, is it inevitable that a massive financial bailout for these boondoggles is coming?

The unfathomable evil of Hamas’ attack on Israel last week was a reminder that the eternal human struggle between civilization and savagery never ends. This is going to be a tough podcast to get through, but it is important to not look away from the hate and the horrors inflicted by the enemies of civilization. Some say this barbarous act changes the Middle East forever. Maybe. But what does the fight in Israel say about the future of global liberty, which we’ve always assumed would remain ascendent forever? And what are we to make of the overtly pro-Hamas sentiment found in American streets, the halls of Congress, the heights of academia, and other redoubts of the ruling class? Join The Heartland Institute’s Jim Lakely, Chris Talgo, S.T. Karnick, and Jack McPherrin to discuss these important topics, and more at 1 p.m. ET (noon CT) at the Stopping Socialism TV channel on YouTube and The Heartland Institute channel on Rumble.

In this clip from the August 24, 2023 episode of The Heartland Institute's In the Tank podcast, Donald Kendal, Jim Lakely, Chris Talgo, and Justin Haskins share their observations on why the first GOP debate of the 2024 election cycles is the worst they have ever seen. From the questions framed from the perspective of the left, to ignoring the issues voters actually care about, to giving the disastrous Biden administration a free pass, to how the moderators lost complete control, this was the worst GOP debate ever.

In what world is asking to observe the auditing of the ballots in Georgia a criminal act? In what world is asking your supporters to watch coverage of a hearing on the election a criminal act? In America today, apparently. Trump and his team were indicted for these "overt acts in furtherance of the conspiracy" to challenge the results of the 2020 election. And by that new standard of justice, a lot of Democrats are in big trouble -- including Hillary Clinton and "fake Georgia governor" Stacey Abrams. In this clip from the August 17, 2023 episode of The Heartland Institute's In the Tank podcast, Donald Kendal, Jim Lakely, Chris Talgo, and Linnea Lueken discuss the absurd indictment of Trump and his aides in Georgia. Lakely explains that in a country with a fair and functional justice system, one is not charged with crimes for following the Constitution and historical precedent to challenge the results of a close election.

Remember when a group of celebrities urged members of the Electoral College to overturn the results of the 2016 election? We do. Sounds a bit "insurrectiony." But not only was that no big deal, no one suggested that defying the will of the people and the results of the election was a threat to our very system of government. These celebrities didn't just want to slow the process down and investigate accusations of election irregularities, they wanted to straight-up install someone else -- anyone else --- as president than the winner of the election, Donald Trump. In this clip from the August 3, 2023 In the Tank podcast on our Stopping Socialism TV channel, The Heartland Institute's Donald Kendal, Jim Lakely, and Linnea Lueken remember those crazy times, and wonder why that was not also an "insurrection."

This week's In the Tank Podcast by The Heartland Institute featured special guest Joe Biden* who finally answered questions about the criminal charges brought against his son, the FBI possessing recordings of discussions about the Biden Family receiving $10 million in bribes, and even the granddaughter he doesn't acknowledge exists. (*It's up to you to decide whether AI Joe Biden and the real Joe Biden makes more sense speaking off the cuff.)

In this clip from the May 4, 2023 In the Tank podcast on our Stopping Socialism TV channel, The Heartland Institute's Donald Kendal, Justin Haskins, Chris Talgo, and Jim Lakely discuss whether the desire of global elites for control will combine with artificial intelligence to establish a dystopian future of constant surveillance.

The Heartland Institute’s Jim Lakely, Chris Talgo, and Linnea Lueken present episode 393 of the In The Tank Podcast. President Biden’s Environmental Protection Agency has just unveiled the “toughest ever” car emissions rules to force Americans to buy electric vehicles. This new mandate should be called the “Break America’s Electric Grid” rule. While we still have choices on what vehicles we buy, the Biden administration is trying to severely, and quickly, limit those choices. Can we go this fast into an EV future? And if we do, what are the real costs in terms of quality of life, freedom, and the environment. We’ll also play clips from a devastating interview of Elon Musk on the BBC this week. He was challenged by the mid-wit newsreader about allowing “misinformation” and “hate speech” on Twitter, which serves as the world’s public square. Unfortunately, the BBC newsreader’s dismissive attitude about free speech – a foundational right in a free society – is troubling and shared by many in the upcoming generations. We also talk about Chris Talgo’s op-ed in the American Thinker this week about the plan in California to pay millions in reparations to African-Americans and if that idea will spread nationally.

The Heartland Institute's Donald Kendal, Jim Lakely, Justin Haskins, and Chris Talgo present episode 380 of the In The Tank Podcast. The Biden administration announced this week that it was considering a ban on gas stoves, supposedly because it causes asthma in kids – a claim not backed up by science. They are trying to walk back from this infuriating government overreach, but the In the Tank crew won’t let them because it’s part of a tyrannical pattern by our ruling elite. For instance, New York governor Kathy Hochul also announced she wants to ban all appliances, including stoves furnaces, that burn fossil fuels. This is not about safety, but about forcing us to go “all electric” for EVERYTHING as soon as possible to “fight climate change.” It’s absolutely insane and must be stopped. The ITT crew will also talk about how the chairman of the Federal Reserve announced the Fed will not be a “climate policymaker,” a rare sensible statement from a position of great power that has the climate cultists enraged. We’ll also cover how YouTube shut down The Heartland Institute’s main channel just before we went live with a prominent climate realist scientist. We will also remember another great scientist and climate realist – our friend, Dr. Jay Lehr – who sadly passed away this week.

The Heartland Institute's Donald Kendal, Jim Lakely, and Chris Talgo — with SPECIAL GUEST Christian Toto — present episode 377 of the In The Tank Podcast. In what is becoming an annual tradition, the In the Tank crew end the year talking about the state of pop culture with veteran movie reviewer and culture writer Christian Toto, proprietor of the HollywoodInToto.com website. We’ll discuss what is looking like a rough patch (and maybe much worse) for the big streaming services (Netflix, Amazon Prime, Disney+, etc.), what that means for the future of Hollywood, and if the “get woke, go broke” maxim is holding or getting even worse. We’ll also discuss the state of the modern Hollywood blockbuster (with Avatar 2, which Donny just saw, being a test case), and Christian will tell us the best movies and streaming shows he saw this year and recommends to our audience.

In this clip from The Heartland Institute's In the Tank Podcast -- broadcast live on this YouTube channel every Thursday at 1 p.m. ET (NOON CT) -- Jim Lakely, Chris Talgo, S.T. Karnick, and Linnea Lueken discuss a terrible idea out of the G20 Summit of global leaders this week. All G20 nations (with the notable exception of China) has agreed in principle to require everyone on the globe to get a Global Health Passport (or a Digital Health Certificate approved by WHO. If you are certified by WHO as being vaccinated and properly tested, "you can move around." If you don't, you can't. Bottom line: Our global elites see all but themselves not as individuals, not as even human beings, but as only vectors of disease and walking bags of infection. If you value your freedom at all, you must resist this dehumanizing idea with everything you have. This is the most anti-human idea yet to come out of these global meetings, and that's a high bar to clear.

The Heartland Institute’s Jim Lakely, Chris Talgo, S.T. Karnick, and Linnea Lueken present episode 372 of the In The Tank Podcast. The ITT crew discusses how COP27 and the G20 summit is going so far – and it is all bad news if you cherish your liberty. The head of the United Nations says we’re on a “climate highway to hell,” Klaus Schwab says “the future is built by us” (and by “us” he means the unaccountable global elite), and every G20 nation has embraced the idea of mandatory “global health passports” to permit free movement of people during “the next pandemic.” Show notes: OPENING BANTER Trump is running for president again COP27 CNBC - We’re on a ‘highway to climate hell,’ UN chief Guterres says, calling for a global phase-out of coal https://www.cnbc.com/2022/11/07/were-on-a-highway-to-climate-hell-un-chief-guterres-says.html “We are in the fight of our lives, and we are losing,” Antonio Guterres tells the COP27 climate change summit. “It is either a climate solidarity pact, or a climate suicide pact.” “Greenhouse gas emissions keep growing, global temperatures keep rising, and our planet is fast approaching tipping points that will make climate chaos irreversible,” he adds. “We are on a highway to climate hell with our foot still on the accelerator,” Guterres, speaking in Sharm el-Sheikh, Egypt, says.

In this clip from The Heartland Institute's In the Tank Podcast, Donald Kendal, Jim Lakely, Chris Talgo, and Cameron Sholty explain why offering "amnesty" to the COVID lockdown advocates is out of the question. They created enormous social and economic destruction, and haven't even had the good manners to apologize. No way can we just "move on" until there is accountability and true atonement. Only then, maybe, can there be forgiveness and "amnesty." Tune into Heartland's YouTube Channel (youtube.com/TheHeartlandInstitute) to watch the show LIVE every Thursday at noon CT.

The Heartland Institute's Donald Kendal, Jim Lakely, Justin Haskins, and Chris Talgo present episode 361 of the In The Tank Podcast. Following California's lead, several other states have signed on to a plan to ban the sale of gas-powered cars by 2035. Similar plans have been proposed in the U.K. and elsewhere. While the plan aims to replace these vehicles with an electric option, the ITT crew questions whether this is part of a larger plan to completely destroy the idea of a personal automobile. Also, in response to Nancy Pelosi's trip to Taiwan, China has announced they are suspending cooperation the world in the fight against climate change.

The Heartland Institute's Donald Kendal, Jim Lakely, and Chris Talgo present episode 360 of the In The Tank Podcast. President Biden announced on Wednesday a massive round of student loan forgiveness. Is this fair? Will it exacerbate inflation? Also, Fauci is retiring.

The Heartland Institute's Donald Kendal, Jim Lakely, Justin Haskins, and Chris Talgo present episode 359 of the In The Tank Podcast. In the pursuit of a carbon dioxide neutral future, the left have put all their eggs in the wind and solar basket while completely ignoring nuclear power. This trend is clearly present in the recently signed Inflation Reduction Act. The ITT crew asks "why?" Also, they discuss two recently examples of the World Economic Forum playing defense in regards to two articles they published on their own website.

The Heartland Institute's Donald Kendal, Jim Lakely, Justin Haskins, and Chris Talgo present episode 358 of the In The Tank Podcast. Donald Trump’s residence was raided by the FBI this week. We are still not exactly clear as to the reasoning behind the raid. Also, the Inflation Reduction Act looks like it is real close to becoming law, which along with raising taxes, pushing further down the path of unreliable energy, and doing absolutely nothing to reduce inflation, will increase the power of the IRS.

The Heartland Institute's Donald Kendal, Jim Lakely, and Justin Haskins present episode 357 of the In The Tank Podcast. The Biden Administration is scrambling to get something accomplished before the midterms. Their latest attempt at a piece of comprehensive legislation is labeled the "Inflation Reduction Act." Despite the name of the bill, the legislation has far more to do with energy policy and increasing taxes. The ITT crew weighs in on this important topic. Also, Florida Governor Ron DeSantis seems to have joined the fight against ESG.

The Heartland Institute's Donald Kendal, Jim Lakely, and Chris Talgo present episode 356 of the In The Tank Podcast. The latest bout of climate hysteria has highlighted a lot of absurdity in regards to the proposed solutions. From the shortcomings of wind and solar energy to the disastrous outcomes of new farming regulations, the environmental left seems more detached from reality than ever. Also, a new report from the World Economic Forum seems to back up the globalist claim that "in the future, you will own nothing."

The Heartland Institute's Jim Lakely, Chris Talgo, and S.T. Karnick talk about the growing possibility that President Biden will officially declare a "climate emergency," seizing broad powers to shove the Green New Deal down our throats. Biden's climate speech in Massachusetts on Wednesday was a mess, and didn't go that far, but what if he does? The In The Tank crew discuss on episode #355 of the podcast. We also cover the one-year anniversary of Biden assuring America that rising inflation was only "temporary," and how Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg is glad gas prices are high, all the better to get people into electric vehicles. Speaking of those, a real-world test of an electric Ford F-150 towing a trailer went poorly ... as anyone with a brain would have suspected.

The Heartland Institute's Donald Kendal, Jim Lakely, and Chris Talgo present episode 354 of the In The Tank Podcast. A new poll, recently conducted by Rasmussen Reports, shows some disturbing results about Democrats positions on the Supreme Court and the Constitution.
