  • Fake Rubio, Real Insurrection, and Elon Throws a Party? - In The Tank #501
    After losing the presidential election and seeing the administrative state’s efforts steamrolled by Trump’s agenda, the left is ramping up its calls to violence—and even acting on them. Just in the last week, there were two attempts on the lives of ICE agents, resulting in injuries and deaths. Likewise, real "color revolution" insurrection plots are being staged by ex-USAID employees who believe they are the rightful government of the United States—not the president. Also, an AI impostor mimicked Marco Rubio in an effort to gain access to other high-level government officials, and Elon Musk has expressed interest in starting his own political party.The Heartland Institute’s Linnea Lueken, Jim Lakely, and Sam Karnick will discuss all of this and more on Episode #501 of the In the Tank Podcast.

  • Fiery But Mostly Astroturfed - In The Tank #498
    Riots are once again breaking out in California, all the way to Chicago and East coast cities. The National Guard is on the streets of LA to handle violent protests against ICE, and it seems there is evidence that these multi-day protests are anything but organic. Similar protests are planned around the country this weekend, attempting to counter a military showcase parade President Trump has planned for the 250th birthday of the U.S. Army. The media can't be trusted to cover it fairly, which leads to our next question: is the "knowledge" economy falling apart? The mainstream news media, academia, and scientific establishment are rapidly losing credibility in the eyes of the average person, and it may be well deserved.Turning our eyes abroad, Trump says he struck a deal with China on trade, we'll look at the good, the bad, and the ugly -- and the UK's Labour Party recently levied taxes that resulted very quickly in a nice demonstration of the Laffer Curve, ending in less government income rather than more.The Heartland Institute’s Linnea Lueken, Jim Lakely, Chris Talgo, and S.T. Karnick will cover all of this and more on episode Episode #498 of the In the Tank Podcast.SHOW NOTES:Topic #1Combining the main topic and Unhinged, we have the Riots! https://openthebooks.substack.com/p/california-pumped-tens-of-millionshttps://www.foxnews.com/politics/hegseth-defends-national-guard-la-deployments-says-ice-agents-must-be-protectedhttps://thehill.com/homenews/senate/5341670-fetterman-condemns-violent-protests-la/https://economictimes.indiatimes.com/news/international/global-trends/massive-no-king-protest-planned-in-more-than-1500-us-cities-to-counter-trumps-june-14-parade-10-points/articleshow/121730782.cms?from=mdr Topic #2"The Knowledge System Collapses"https://www.honest-broker.com/p/the-ten-warning-signsTopic #3US-China Trade Dealhttps://www.reuters.com/world/china/us-china-trade-talks-resume-second-day-2025-06-10/Topic #4Labour Taxes Backfirehttps://removepaywalls.com/https://www.telegraph.co.uk/money/labour-ideological-attack-private-schools-backfiring/
