Heard at Heritage

The Power Hour is a weekly podcast that discusses the most interesting energy and environmental policy issues of the day with top national experts.   Jack invites Panex Oil and Gas President and CEO R. Jay Burr to the Power Hour this week for a discussion you don’t want to miss.   They discuss the importance of petroleum in our everyday lives and why it is key to our high living standards.  Rather than accepting the anti-oil propaganda that bombards us every day, Jack and Jay talk about the good petroleum does for those that have access to it and why we should work to increase that access to those that don’t.  To learn more about Jay and the gas and oil business, check out the Panex website here.   Join the conversation at  thepowerhour@heritage.org!  Thank you for listening and please don’t forget to subscribe and help us to spread the word.     Listen to other Heritage podcasts: https://www.heritage.org/podcasts Sign up for The Agenda newsletter — the lowdown on top issues conservatives need to know about each week: https://www.heritage.org/agenda Listen to podcasts from The Daily Signal: https://www.dailysignal.com/podcasts/ Get daily conservative news you can trust from our Morning Bell newsletter: DailySignal.com/morningbellsubscription 

Children need real protection, not political lip service. When the well-being of children is prioritized, the results are not only good for kids but also smart policy. Conservatives repeatedly fail in the court of public opinion, but it is conservative principles which truly advance the well-being of the most vulnerable. Hear from policy experts on race, family, and border issues to learn the big lies told to the public, how those lies harm children, how the truth protects children, and what actions should be taken to protect them.

Agenda Panel I Rob Greenway, Director, Allison Center for National Security, The Heritage Foundation EJ Kimball, Director of Christian Engagement, Combat Antisemitism Movement Jonathan Schanzer, Senior Vice President of Research, Foundation for Defense of Democracies Daniel Flesch, Visiting Fellow, Allison Center for National Security, The Heritage Foundation (Moderator) Panel II Victoria Coates, Vice President for National Security and Foreign Policy, The Heritage Foundation Fred Fleitz, Vice Chair, Center for American Security, America First Policy Institute Mort Klein, National President, Zionist Organization of America Tricia Miller, Director of CAMERA's Partnership of Christians and Jews Mario Bramnick, Co-Chair, National Task Force to Combat Antisemitism (Moderator)  Since the horrific atrocities committed by Hamas against innocent Israelis, the Biden administration and the international community have waged an unprecedented, comprehensive, and escalating political war against Israel. They have attempted to criminalize Israel’s war efforts, effectively denying the Jewish state, the right to self-defense, and state sovereignty. This has fueled an unprecedented rise of antisemitism on the streets and campuses of American universities. Rather than an organic movement, the demonstrations, encampments, and riots engulfing these campuses and city streets are part of a concerted effort to sow social and political discord across the country.Our two panels will discuss both the organizations, objectives, and strategies behind the continued rise in antisemitism as well as the importance of restoring the once historic U.S.-Israel alliance.  Listen to other Heritage podcasts: https://www.heritage.org/podcasts Sign up for The Agenda newsletter — the lowdown on top issues conservatives need to know about each week: https://www.heritage.org/agenda Listen to podcasts from The Daily Signal: https://www.dailysignal.com/podcasts/ Get daily conservative news you can trust from our Morning Bell newsletter: DailySignal.com/morningbellsubscription

Join us for the official launch of Dr. Corey DeAngelis’ new book, The Parent Revolution, in which he unapologetically argues why parents and political leaders must lean into the culture war taking place in schools. Dr. DeAngelis exposes the hypocritical elites who are content to hold other people’s children captive to poorly run government schools while sending their own children to the best private and charter schools out there. And most importantly, he equips readers with the ability to make sure the potent forces of the educational industrial complex don’t regain their footing.Dr. DeAngelis is a senior fellow at the American Federation for Children and a visiting fellow at Stanford University’s Hoover Institution. He has been labeled the “school choice evangelist” and called “the most effective school choice advocate since Milton Friedman.” Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Fentanyl is the "deadliest drug threat the United States has ever faced," according to the U.S. Drug Enforcement Administration. The Centers for Disease Control (CDC) estimates that 108,000 Americans died due to drug overdoses in 2023. Of those deaths, 75,000—or nearly 3 out of every 4—were caused by synthetic opioids, primarily fentanyl, according to the CDC. While the usual suspects, such as Mexican cartels, are aiding this crisis, another player across the Pacific Ocean is driving the crisis: the People’s Republic of China.Unknown to many Americans, the Chinese Communist Party is actively funding, supporting, and pushing America’s most deadly drug threat in history. An effective U.S. strategy to combat the international fentanyl trafficking industry must begin with the recognition that the United States lacks good-faith partners in both the Chinese and Mexican governments.
