This week on Breaking Battlegrounds, we're joined by Daniel Di Martino, Fellow at the Manhattan Institute and PhD candidate at Columbia University, for a deep dive into the fiscal impact of immigration. Daniel breaks down his 2025 report showing how education level, age of arrival, and legal status determine whether immigration boosts or strains America's finances—revealing why high-skilled immigrants contribute net surpluses while lower-skilled, older arrivals often bring long-term fiscal costs. We'll also hear how his experience growing up in Venezuela shapes his views on socialism, protest culture, and opportunity. Later, Albert Eisenberg of RedBridge joins us to discuss the future of Pennsylvania, the political trajectory of John Fetterman, how Republicans can lead on healthcare solutions and affordability, and why smart strategic messaging is key to connecting with new generations of voters. And in Kiley's Corner, we're diving into the 2025 Louvre Museum heist as she reveals a Spotify playlist titled "Louvre Museum Heist" that was created four weeks before the crime. Was it the thieves? Tune into this episode to find out more.
