  • Biden Impeachment Incoming? - In The Tank #415
    The Heartland Institute's Donald Kendal, Jim Lakely, and Chris Talgo present episode 415 of the In The Tank Podcast. There has been a steady stream of stories coming out over the past several months relating to potential corruption involving President Biden and his son Hunter. It appears as though we might be reaching a tipping point as House Speaker Kevin McCarthy opened an impeachment inquiry into President Biden. How likely is this to go anywhere? Will this dredge out even more information? Will this have an impact on the election? The ITT crew discusses these topics and more.OPENING CHIT CHAT - SOCIALISM 2023 CONFERENCEWashington Stand - ‘Public Education Needs to be a Site of Socialist Organizing’: ALA Presidenthttps://washingtonstand.com/news/public-education-needs-to-be-a-site-of-socialist-organizing-ala-presidentSocialism 2023 Conference panelshttps://socialismconference.org/2023-schedule/Panels include:- "Family Abolition Today"- "Kids as Comrades"- "Radical Drag Show"PRIMARY TOPIC - BIDEN IMPEACHMENT INCOMING?AP News - What’s ahead now that Republicans are opening an impeachment inquiry into President Joe Bidenhttps://apnews.com/article/hunter-biden-congress-oversight-republicans-impeachment-57c5b1b40d19ede4ecf7fde08c027ceeNational Review - White House Sending Letter to News Outlets Urging Them to ‘Ramp Up’ Scrutiny of GOP over Impeachment Inquiryhttps://www.nationalreview.com/news/white-house-sending-letter-to-news-outlets-urging-them-to-ramp-up-scrutiny-of-gop-over-impeachment-inquiry/?utm_source=email&utm_medium=breaking&utm_campaign=newstrack&utm_term=32695645The Federalist - Impeaching Biden Is The Right Call, But Don’t Stop With Himhttps://thefederalist.com/2023/09/13/impeaching-biden-is-the-right-call-but-dont-stop-with-him/DailyMail - Chuck Schumer echos well-known Donald Trump talking point characterizing the Republicans' impeachment of Biden as a WITCH HUNT as other Democrats slam the inquiry as illegitimatehttps://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-12510647/Chuck-Schumer-echos-known-Donald-Trump-talking-point-characterizing-Republicans-impeachment-Biden-WITCH-HUNT-Democrats-slam-inquiry-illegitimate.htmDAVOS WATCH - G20 SUMMIT REVEALS ECONOMIC BATTLE WITH CHINAWhite House (Sep 9, 2023) - FACT SHEET: President Biden and Prime Minister Modi Host Leaders on the Partnership for Global Infrastructure and Investmenthttps://www.whitehouse.gov/briefing-room/statements-releases/2023/09/09/fact-sheet-president-biden-and-prime-minister-modi-host-leaders-on-the-partnership-for-global-infrastructure-and-investment/ NPR - Biden said the G-7 would counter Chinese influence.

    The Heartland Institute's Donald Kendal, Jim Lakely, and Chris Talgo present episode 414 of the In The Tank Podcast.

  • Climate Action 'Requires Global Cooperation (China)' - In The Tank #413
    The Heartland Institute's Donald Kendal, Jim Lakely, Chris Talgo, and Linnea Lueken present episode 413 of the In The Tank Podcast. Climate Czar John Kerry recently discussed the importance of China's cooperation in the fight against climate change. Kerry is not wrong, but how far is the U.S. willing to go in order to keep China happy? Rumors are swirling that China is building a super dam near the border of India, potentially igniting a geopolitical fire between the two countries. Also, what role is BlackRock, the corporate face of climate action, playing in China when it comes to energy production and finance? The ITT crew discusses these topics and more.OPENING CHIT CHAT - CHICAGO MAYOR BLAMES KIA FOR CRIME WAVE Red State - Mayor of Chicago Sues Automakers for Making Cars Too Easy to Stealhttps://redstate.com/heartlandinstitute/2023/08/30/mayor-of-chicago-sues-automakers-for-making-cars-too-easy-to-steal-n2163225 Fox 32 - Mayor Johnson mocked for suing automakers for car thefts: 'The numbers speak for themselves'https://www.fox32chicago.com/news/brandon-johnson-kia-lawsuit-car-thefts  PRIMARY TOPIC - CLIMATE ACTION REQUIRES GLOBAL COOPERATION NPR - John Kerry says U.S. can't reach climate goals without global cooperationhttps://www.npr.org/2023/08/27/1196251259/john-kerry-says-u-s-cant-reach-climate-goals-without-global-cooperation Asia Nikkei - China can't just keep building the world's biggest dam in secrethttps://asia.nikkei.com/Opinion/China-can-t-just-keep-building-the-world-s-biggest-dam-in-secret NYT - After Covid, China’s Leaders Face New Challenges From Floodinghttps://www.nytimes.com/2020/08/21/world/asia/china-flooding-sichuan-chongqing.html Select Committee on the CCP - "Unconscionable to Profit From Fueling China's Military" - Select Committee Launches Investigation Into BlackRock & MSCIhttps://selectcommitteeontheccp.house.gov/media/press-releases/unconscionable-profit-fueling-chinas-military-select-committee-launches  DAVOS WATCH - 21st CENTURY COLLECTIVIZED AGRICULTURE  Fox News - Two dozen Republicans call on Biden to disavow John Kerry's remarks targeting food productionhttps://www.foxnews.com/politics/two-dozen-republicans-call-biden-disavow-john-kerrys-remarks-targeting-food-productionReuters - EU okays $1.61 billion for Dutch government to buy out farmers, reduce nitrogenhttps://www.reuters.com/world/europe/eu-okays-161-bln-dutch-govt-buy-out-farmers-reduce-nitrogen-2023-05-02/WEF - Food Innovation Hubshttps://www.weforum.org/communities/food-innovation-hubs-partners-groupIIH - The Netherlands and the World Economic Forum Launch Food Innovation Hubs Initiative (2021)https://investinholland.com/news/the-netherlands-and-the-world-economic-forum-launch-food-innovation-hubs-initiative/ WEF - Green Returns: Unleashing the Power of Finance for Sustainable Food Systemshttps://www.weforum.org/whitepapers/green-returns-unleashing-the-power-of-finance-for-sustainable-food-systems
