A group that conducts “non-partisan conservative research and fact-checking” is calling into question the claim that one of Biden’s nominees to the Board of Governors of the United States Postal Service is a true independent and has produced online evidence she is a Democrat.
On this episode of
UnRig It, the official podcast of the National Association of Nonpartisan Reformers, host Shawn Griffiths talks with the Association s new executive director, Andy Moore. Shawn and Andy discuss his background in the reform space, what motivated him to get involved in the Association, and the next steps he would like to see the Association and the pro-voter movement take as we move into the future. Andy explains how this is a moment of self-reflection as reformers assess the challenges that still lie in front of them while also building tremendous support among voters who are tired of the political status quo in the US.

If Bill Gates, Barack Obama, NPR, Amazon and big and small publications can name their best books of 2020, so can I. Everyone in the Biden administration and Congress and you, too should read these two: Fareed Zakaria’s “Ten Lessons for a Post-Pandemic World” and Robert Putnam’s “The Upswing: How America Came Together a Century Ago and How We Can Do It Again.”
Both are bad-news/good-news books about America’s troubled and deeply divided society, with ideas on how to repair it.
Zakaria looks forward to the challenges of new pandemics, runaway technology, worsening inequality, climate catastrophe and a possible U.S.-China cold (maybe even hot) war. He suggests smart fixes that can be boiled down to four: better leadership, more public investment, systematic preparation and international cooperation.
