Since Election Night, doesn’t everything feel different now? Not just our politics. but the whole mood of the country. Yes, some of our fellow Americans are in a very sad state. Clips of people filming their misery and sharing it with the world are everywhere. But for the majority of the country, is feels like a major societal and cultural shift has occurred. And there are a lot of people walking around with a new spring in their step.Our media has changed, with the legacy media’s corruption being its undoing. Our pop culture feels about to change, too, moving away from leftist moralizing and back to producing entertainment with broad appeal. It just feels like the politicization of everything is over, and we’re waking up in a new era in which leftism is no longer going to be the dominant force in American life.In a special Episode #473 of the In the Tank Podcast, guest host Jim Lakely welcomes The Heartland Institute’s Linnea Lueken and CFACT’s Chris Martz to discuss whether they share Jim's feeling that everything has changed. And if it has, what a more “normal” future will look like.SUPPORT THE SHOW: https://heartland.org/donate/SHOW NOTESCNN 'will axe top stars in layoffs that'll see hundreds fired as ratings continue to tank'https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/arti...“Fair & Balanced”: Trump 2.0 Era Brings New Los Angeles Times Editorial Board, Owner Promises With Fox News Motto Echohttps://deadline.com/2024/11/trump-la...MSNBC and CNN Ratings Tank After Trump Steamrolls Kamala Harrishttps://www.outkick.com/analysis/msnb...MSNBC Ratings Crater As Viewers Tune Out Trump Victory Coveragehttps://www.mediaite.com/news/just-in...Hollywood Braces for a Woke Backlash in the Wake of Trump's Electionhttps://www.msn.com/en-us/movies/news...SEMAFOR: The old media grapples with its new limitshttps://www.semafor.com/article/11/10...The rejection of the ruling class was global.https://x.com/jburnmurdoch/status/185...

A Trump Victory & a Media Reckoning - In The Tank #472
The Heartland Institute’s Donald Kendal, Jim Lakely, Justin Haskins, and Chris Talgo present episode 472 of the In The Tank Podcast. Donald J. Trump has been elected as the 47th President of the United States. Trump's victory comes after a years long campaign by the media to paint the President-elect as a racist, sexist, fascist, second-coming of Hitler. The media's narrative failed as Trump looks to lock up the popular vote. The In The Tank crew talks about the evaporating influence of the mainstream media and speculates on what the first 100 days of the next administration will look like.Election Outcome and Exit PollsNYT - Election Live Updateshttps://www.nytimes.com/live/2024/11/06/us/trump-election-harris-newsNBC News - Exit Pollshttps://www.nbcnews.com/politics/2024-elections/exit-pollsReckoning of the Media's InfluenceBusiness Insider - Trump's victory shows the flagging influence of mainstream mediahttps://www.businessinsider.com/trumps-victory-shows-the-flagging-influence-of-mainstream-media-2024-11The Left's Narrative and SpinThe Atlantic - TRUMP WON.

Bezos: Americans Don't Trust The News Media - In The Tank #471
The Heartland Institute’s Donald Kendal, Jim Lakely, Justin Haskins, and Jack McPherrin present episode 471 of the In The Tank Podcast. The last vestiges of the media's credibility are going up in smoke. From ghastly journalistic blunders to headlines that twist and turn like characters in a Hitchcock thriller, we’ll break down how the media seems to be taking an axe to its own reputation—Jack Torrance-style. Polls show public trust in the media is as low as the depths of Crystal Lake, and even Jeff Bezos, CEO of Amazon and owner of The Washington Post, recently penned a chilling op-ed on Americans' growing distrust. Join us as we venture into the haunted house of today’s media landscape—where truth and fiction blur and shadows lurk behind every headline."Trump on Joe RoganJoe Rogan Experience #2219 - Donald Trumphttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hBMoPUAeLnYNYP - YouTube, Google accused of censorship as Joe Rogan’s Trump interview nearly impossible to find in search: ‘No sensible explanation’https://nypost.com/2024/10/28/business/youtube-google-accused-of-censorship-as-joe-rogans-trump-interview-nearly-impossible-to-find/Trump's MSG "Nazi Rally"Fox News - Walz repeats Clinton attack that Trump Madison Square Garden event mirrored 1930s Nazi rallyhttps://www.foxnews.com/politics/walz-repeats-clinton-attack-trump-madison-square-garden-event-mirrored-1930s-nazi-rallyNational Review - Know Who Else Rallied at Madison Square Garden?

Establishment Targets Elon: 'This is War' - In The Tank #470
The Heartland Institute’s Donald Kendal, Jim Lakely, and Chris Talgo present episode 470 of the In The Tank Podcast. When Elon Musk expressed interest in purchasing Twitter and making it a bastion for free speech, he simultaneously put a target on his back for the political elites. In a recent development, leaked documents appear to show advisors to the Kamala Harris campaign have plans to "kill Musk's Twitter." Elon Musk's response? "This is war." Also, has the media completely lost it? President Donald Trump's recent campaign stunt at McDonalds has exposed what can only be described as lunacy of the mainstream media.Trump's shift at McDonaldsNYT - How Media Outlets on the Left and Right Covered Trump’s Stop at McDonald’shttps://www.nytimes.com/2024/10/21/business/media/trump-mcdonalds-media-coverage.htmlNewsweek - Was Donald Trump's McDonald's Shift 'Staged'?https://www.newsweek.com/donald-trump-mcdonalds-work-staged-fake-1972058The Federalist - The Press Can’t Handle Trump’s Brilliant Display Of Retail Politics At McDonald’s Drive-Throughhttps://thefederalist.com/2024/10/21/the-press-cant-handle-trumps-brilliant-display-of-retail-politics-at-mcdonalds-drive-through/ Musk: "This is War"Breitbart - This Is War:’ Elon Musk Furious at Center for Countering Hate Plan to ‘Kill Musk’s Twitter’https://www.breitbart.com/tech/2024/10/23/this-is-war-elon-musk-furious-at-center-for-countering-hate-plan-to-kill-musks-twitter/SubStack - Election Exclusive: British Advisors to Kamala Harris Hope to "Kill Musk's Twitter"https://disinformationchronicle.substack.com/p/election-exclusive-british-advisors Propaganda WarsGlenn Beck - Propaganda Wars: How the Global Elite Control What You See, Think, and Feelhttps://www.amazon.com/Propaganda-Wars-Global-Elite-Control/dp/1637633890 11 Days Until the Election538 - Who Is Favored To Win The 2024 Presidential Election?https://projects.fivethirtyeight.com/2024-election-forecast/Politico - Trump set to go on Joe Rogan’s podcasthttps://www.politico.com/live-updates/2024/10/22/2024-elections-live-coverage-updates-analysis/trump-joe-rogan-podcast-00184894

When Progressives Squash Progress - In The Tank #469
The Heartland Institute’s Donald Kendal, Jim Lakely, and Chris Talgo present episode 469 of the In The Tank Podcast. Over this past week, we witnessed an engineering breakthrough from Elon Musk's SpaceX. The successful launch and recapture of the SpaceX Starship booster marks a pivotal moment in the future of space travel, showcasing advancements in reusability and cost efficiency. SpaceX is paving the way for a new era where space access becomes more routine and affordable, pushing the boundaries of what is possible beyond Earth's orbit. But remember, Elon Musk is frowned upon by the political elite. Instead of commemorating this occasion and encouraging this innovation, government bureaucrats have instead chosen to stifle Musk by denying his request for additional rocket launches. Also, we are another week closer to the election and it appears Kamala Harris is getting increasingly desperate.Elon Musk's Starship BreakthoughSpace - SpaceX plans to catch Starship upper stage with 'chopsticks' in early 2025, Elon Musk sayshttps://www.space.com/spacex-starship-upper-stage-chopstick-catch-elon-muskEconomist - Starship will change what is possible beyond the Earthhttps://www.economist.com/leaders/2024/10/16/starship-will-change-what-is-possible-beyond-the-earthProgressives vs. ProgressNYT - California Rejects Bid for More Frequent SpaceX Launcheshttps://www.nytimes.com/2024/10/12/us/spacex-launch-california.htmlLA Times - SpaceX sues California regulators, alleging anti-Musk bias in rocket rejectionhttps://www.latimes.com/california/story/2024-10-16/spacex-political-bias-coastal-commission-lawsuitKamala's Bret Baier InterviewFox News - VP Harris to sit down hours from now with Bret Baier for first Fox News interviewhttps://www.foxnews.com/politics/vp-harris-sit-down-hours-from-now-bret-baier-first-fox-news-interviewKamala Is Getting DesperateReuters - Harris could join Joe Rogan podcast in hunt for male votes, sources sayhttps://www.reuters.com/world/us/kamala-harris-could-join-podcaster-joe-rogan-an-interview-sources-2024-10-15/Yahoo - Harris-Trump polls tighten, but PredictIt and Polymarket tell a different storyhttps://finance.yahoo.com/news/harris-trump-polls-tighten-predictit-173916471.html
