On Tuesday, New York City elected a trust-fund communist as mayor. New Jersey, which seemed to be trending red, put a scandal-ridden Democrat in the governor's mansion. In Virginia, voters rejected a black Republican conservative woman over a woke former CIA spook who pledged to force girls and women to endure biological men in their private spaces again. Oh, and Dems in the Old Dominion also elected a man who wished a political opponent and his children would be murdered so his grieving wife would finally agree with him on policy as she held her family in her arms.

The weird part is that all these results were expected for weeks. What happened? On Episode #518 of the In the Tank Podcast, the Heartland Institute's Linnea Lueken, S.T. Karnick, Jim Lakely, and Chris Talgo will break it all down. It seems that the rise of socialism has not been arrested after all. Is this an outlier, or a sign that the midterm elections in 2026 will be a bloodbath for Trump and the MAGA movement.

After years of funding and fueling climate panic, Bill Gates has done an about-face. In a new 17-page memo released ahead of COP-30 in Brazil, Gates admits that rising temperatures will “not lead to humanity’s demise” and urges the climate community to drop its “doomsday outlook.” This marks a stunning shift for one of the world’s most prominent climate influencers and could signal a long-overdue return to honest, fact-based climate discussion.

In Episode #180 of The Climate Realism Show, hosts Anthony Watts, Linnea Lueken, and Jim Lakely break down what Gates’ reversal means for climate policy, science, and the green tech industry. They also cover the Crazy Climate News of the Week, including a new study showing wind turbines are even worse for birds than previously believed, claims that climate change is to blame for higher Halloween candy prices, and why attributing the intensity of Hurricane Melissa to global warming is misguided.

What happens when cutting-edge technology meets childhood education? In this compelling debate from the Moms for Liberty Summit, two experts clash over whether AI belongs in our classrooms.

Meanwhile, Dr. Edward Hudgins argues that AI represents the key to personalized learning and preparing students for an inevitable technological future.
