January 11, 2024 PragerU’s Big Dreams for Future
Fifteen years ago, Allen Estrin and Dennis Prager founded an organization called PragerU with the goal of providing easily digestible commonsense ideas to young people. Estrin, producer of “The Dennis Prager Show,” and the namesake Prager struck gold.

Today, PragerU produces five-minute videos and other content that have more than 9 billion views since its founding in 2009. It’s an incredible story.

One of the people most responsible for PragerU’s success is Marissa Streit, CEO of the fast-growing operation. She spoke with The Daily Signal about PragerU’s mission and how it’s transforming lives, one video at a time.

January 10, 2024 Ohio's DeWine Rushed to Ban Trans Surgeries After Vetoing a Bill Outlawing Them. Why?
On Friday, Ohio's Republican governor, Mike DeWine, issued an “emergency” executive order to ban sex-reassignment surgeries for minors just one week after he vetoed a bill that would have banned those same surgeries and addressed related issues.

The General Assembly is expected to begin the process of overriding his veto Wednesday. Why did DeWine sign the order so quickly after vetoing the bill?

Dr. Stanley Goldfarb, chairman of the medical reform group Do No Harm, offered an explanation. In his interview with "The Daily Signal Podcast," he points to a video revealing a Cincinnati gender clinic as the reason DeWine moved to issue the order so quickly after vetoing the bill.

January 09, 2024 Why Iran Is at Center of Middle East Conflict
Hamas and Israel have been at war for three months. The Houthis are firing rockets at ships in the Red Sea. Lebanon is firing rockets into Israel. And internal violence is growing in Iran between Sunni and Shiite Muslims.

As tension builds in the Middle East, the most common thread in the conflict is Iran, according to Victoria Coates, former deputy national security advisor to President Donald Trump.

There are three Iranian-sponsored terrorist groups beginning with “H” in the region, Coates explains—to include Hamas, the Houthis, and Hezbollah.
Consider the attack on Israel alone.

“Hamas doesn't have the capability to do this on their own. They needed the help from Hezbollah. They needed the help ultimately from Iran in terms of equipment and intelligence and so on,” says Coates, who currently serves as vice president of the Institute for National Security and Foreign Policy at The Heritage Foundation. (The Daily Signal is Heritage’s news outlet.)

The Biden administration has failed to take strategic action against Iran, Coates says. Meanwhile, “there have been closer to 150 attacks on the part of these various Iranian proxy groups on U.S. installations and people” since Hamas attacked Israel on Oct. 7.

Coates joins “The Daily Signal Podcast” to explain why the Biden administration has not taken consistent strategic action against Iran and to address the threat of all-out war in the Middle East.

January 08, 2024 Why Colorblindness Is a Virtue
Martin Luther King Jr. and Frederick Douglass were both dedicated to bringing about an America that was colorblind, Andre Archie says, but their work is being undermined.

“When I say colorblind, it's not naive at all,” says Archie, an author and professor at Colorado State University. “It speaks to a tradition that we find with MLK, with Frederick Douglass, with the Founders, right, in principle. We also find it in the Western philosophical tradition; so, my goal is to rehabilitate that.”

In his new book, “The Virtue of Color-Blindness,” Archie explains how what he calls the “cult” of diversity, equity and inclusion has harmed society and is contrary to the vision of America’s greatest civil rights leaders, and what can be done about it.

Archie joins “The Daily Signal Podcast” to explain the role conservatives must play in restoring a vision of a colorblind America.

January 05, 2024 Climate Series Part 3: Should We Be Concerned Over Climate Change?
The climate is changing, but is the change cause for concern?

“There are natural climate cycles, which are normal,” research scientist Roy Spencer says, adding that “If you move beyond the temperature to things like storminess, you know, hurricane activity, there have been no demonstrable, long-term changes in anything other than a modest, relatively benign increase in temperature."

When it comes to climate change, Spencer, a meteorologist and research scientist at the University of Alabama in Huntsville, says he's “been hearing the rhetoric and the fearmongering since the 1970s.”
Asked if he personally worries about climate change, Spencer says: “No, if I was seriously worried about it, you know, I'd be worried for my children's future and my grandchildren's future. And I'm not.”

“I'm more worried about what our government is doing on a number of fronts, including regulatory mandates, which is going to make life much more expensive for them and therefore reduce their standard of living,” adds Spencer, who has researched climate change for 40 years.

The “natural fluctuations in weather are normal,” argues Spencer, currently a visiting fellow in The Heritage Foundation’s Center for Energy, Climate, and Environment. (The Daily Signal is Heritage’s news outlet.)

Spencer joins “The Daily Signal Podcast” for the final episode of a three-part series on climate change. In it, he explains what we know and don't know about the root causes of climate change and the appropriate response to a changing climate. Spencer also provides insight into how the climate may change in coming years.
