    Climate Scientist Fired. Was It For Countering the Narrative? — The Climate Realism Show #210

    One of Denmark’s most internationally recognized climate researchers, Dr. Henrik Svensmark, was just sacked from his long-time position at the Technical University of Denmark. Unlike many climate scientists, Svensmark conducted actual science experiments, and his work on the effects cosmic rays and clouds have on the climate was leading edge. He was fired after years of moves that look like they were purposely trying to push him out. What happened? Is it because his work didn’t support the alarmist climate narrative? We will have Dr. Svensmark on the program to get the story directly from him. On Episode 210 of The Climate Realism Show the Heartland Institute’s Anthony Watts, Linnea Lueken, Sterling Burnett, Jim Lakely and Henrik Svensmark will also cover some of the Crazy Climate News of the Week. Is climate change ruining summers for kids? Can wind farms help real farms? Is the best way to fight Net Zero through comedy? Join us Friday at 1 p.m. ET on YouTube, Rumble, X, and Facebook.

    I Am The Science! Fauci Lied, People Died - In The Tank #547

    Anthony Fauci was recently hauled before the Senate to explain his role in the COVID 19 pandemic, and the multitude of lies he told as head of the National Institutes of Health’s National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases and advisor to the president. He pleaded the fifth more than 100 times during the hearing, refusing to answer pointed questions. Next steps are as unclear as his tenure, his reasoning for seeming to protect China has been left unstated, and the scale of his corruption is hard to quantify. Meanwhile, the FCC has delivered a blow to China's AI and robotics industry by BANNING Chinese-made advanced robotics. On UNHINGED: Mamdani suggests that cash reparations might be doled out over slavery. Somehow. And for America @ 250, with all the drama surrounding Fauci, we're going to take a look at disease and epidemiology during the Revolution. The Heartland Institute's Linnea Lueken, Jim Lakely, and Chris Talgo will talk about all of this and more on Episode #546 of the In The Tank Podcast.

    Blame Canada! Smoky Skies and Climate Change — The Climate Realism Show #209

    Wildfires in Canada have become a major story in the US because the smoke from those fires have traveled a very long way, covering the skies of cities in the Upper Midwest as far south as Chicago, over nearly all of Michigan, and to major population centers in the Northeast. Much media coverage blames the fires on human-caused climate change. But what does the actual data say? On Episode 209 of The Climate Realism Show the Heartland Institute’s Anthony Watts, Linnea Lueken, Sterling Burnett, Jim Lakely Heartland UK/Europe’s Lois Perry will debunk some myths about the fire and also talk about other Crazy Climate News of the Week. The UK is poised to turn off people’s heat pumps right when they need them in the cold of winter. Are rolling blackouts coming to the US because of over-reliance on so-called “green” energy? And we’ll look at how much typhoons hate solar power. Join us Friday at 1 p.m. ET on YouTube, Rumble, X, and Facebook. Participate in the show by leaving your comments and questions in the chat.

    Our Elections Are In Peril! - In The Tank Podcast #546

    President Trump revealed that China has been interfering with our elections, especially the fraught 2020 election, in a speech that the mainstream media attempted to debunk before they even had the details. Trump brought receipts, and then as if to re-emphasize his point about election integrity, another bombshell dropped: illegals have been voting in New Jersey elections. The panel will discuss how to prevent these egregious problems with our election system, how to harden it against attacks, and how deep this all may go. On UNHINGED: Representative Jasmine Crockett says the reason people were rooting for Spain in the World Cup... was racism. And for USA @250 - In 1776, the first draft of the Pennsylvania constitution quickly highlighted why too much Democracy can be a bad thing. The Heartland Institute's Linnea Lueken, Jim Lakely, and S.T. Karnick will talk about all of this and more on Episode #546 of the In The Tank Podcast.

    We’re Winning! Climate Alarmism Is Losing Its Grip

    Is the media’s nonstop climate panic finally losing steam? Major outlets are scaling back climate coverage. The Washington Post fired 13 Climate Desk reporters, NPR disbanded its climate desk, Politico is folding E&E News into its main operation, and the latest UN climate negotiations in Germany saw the fewest journalists in attendance in more than a decade. Are these signs that climate realism is winning the debate, or just a temporary lull before the alarmists regroup? On Episode #206 of The Climate Realism Show, The Heartland Institute’s Anthony Watts, Linnea Lueken, H. Sterling Burnett, and Jim Lakely welcome Anika Sweetland of the CO2 Coalition to discuss the latest signs of momentum for climate realism. We’ll also cover the Crazy Climate News of the Week, including:- A UN plan to tax global shipping and aviation over greenhouse gas emissions- Claims that climate change is ruining our sleep- How China is exploiting the global climate agenda for economic warfare In The Tank broadcasts LIVE every Thursday at 12pm CT on on The Heartland Institute YouTube channel.

    Housing Act Held Hostage Until Save America Is Passed — In the Tank Podcast #542

    Trump is refusing to sign the 21st Century ROAD to Housing Act unless lawmakers first pass the SAVE AMERICA Act, which Trump says is far more important. There is a lot of skepticism about whether or not the now-hostage Housing Act is a good idea anyway, the panel discusses the nuances. On another issue, Trump has also said that the administration is working on a National Right to Carry bill, but again, there are potential issues down the road from this approach. Gun rights advocates say its a step in the right direction, but doesn't affirm Constitutional rights to bear arms strongly enough to end state-level infringements. For our Countdown to 250, we discuss this week in 1776, how colonies were feeling about breaking from the British in the week leading up to the Declaration of Independence. And on UNHINGED: New York City Congressional elections have been swept by socialist candidates, they are far more extreme than anyone Democrats have ever platformed. The Heartland Institute's Linnea Lueken, Jim Lakely, and S.T. Karnick will talk about all of this and more on Episode #542 of the In The Tank Podcast.

    Elon Musk, Trillionaire — In the Tank Podcast #541

    One would think a major terror attack just occurred on U.S. soil, for all the reactions that Democrats and socialist friends are having to the news that Elon Musk's net worth just hit a trillion dollars. He is the first person in history to make that mark, and leftist progressives absolutely hate it. We will discuss the politics of ENVY, and how poisonous jealousy is to society and the economy. Also, as the World Cup continues in the United States, many visiting Europeans are finding themselves loving American culture and community, reality is refuting the scary picture painted by their own media. American communities have always been loyal and close-knit, as the history of the "Midnight Ride" network of Paul Revere and his fellow messengers shows us. For our Countdown to 250 segment, we discuss the trust and coordination it took to make their mission a success. On UNHINGED: Lefties lose it over Elon Musk's trillionaire status. The Heartland Institute's Linnea Lueken, Jim Lakely, S.T. Karnick, and Chris Talgo talk about all of this and more on Episode #541 of the In The Tank Podcast.

    Godzilla El Niño is Coming! — The Climate Realism Show #205

    Ocean temps are rising in the tropical Pacific Ocean, a natural and regular phenomenon called El Niño. Climate modelers say this year's could be one of the biggest ever, and some have nicknamed it "Godzilla El Niño!" That's a fun name, but what can we expect in this El Niño cycle? The Climate Realism Show's Anthony Watts, Linnea Lueken, Jim Lakely, and special guest Lois Perry will talk about that.    We will also cover some of the Crazy Climate News of the Week, including: global airlines giving up on their always absurd NetZero by 2050 goal, giant fire tornadoes to clean up oil spills, Democrats backing off their pledges to stop oil and gas in the face of higher fuel costs, and will Trump's Endangerment Finding repeal soon also apply to power plants?   Join us Friday at 1 p.m. ET on YouTube, Rumble, X, and Facebook.
