John, I'm excited to share the latest from CRC with you:

  • How can conservative nonprofits best navigate the pandemic?
    The Heritage Foundation is a pillar of the conservative movement, and so they hosted an online discussion for conservative leaders to help them learn how their organizations can best weather the pandemic's turmoil. Heritage asked fundraising expert Ann Fitzgerald and me to speak about how to plot strategy, keep revenues afloat, message powerfully, and otherwise "lead by example."     Watch the webinar here.
  • Does banning people from Facebook endanger lives?
    Modern technological advances have gone from being conveniences to life-saving resources. Twitter and Facebook are sources of breaking news and official government announcements. Uber Eats has become a vital means of social distancing for some. The list goes on. But what happens when people express the "wrong" political beliefs and are banned from these platforms? CRC's Ashley Rae Goldenberg explores the dangers of punishing wrongthink here.
  • Is the eco-Right genuinely conservative?
    CRC's Hayden Ludwig looks closer at the eco-Right -- conservatives who support the Left's view that manmade global warming will bring catastrophe. They say that in general they support free markets, limited government, and individual liberty, just not on environmental issues. Ludwig examines how dangerous it is to accept the environmental Left's deadly brew of "consensus" science, statist policies, and cronyism. Read his commentary here.
  • How can donors and parents strengthen history and civics education?
    CRC's Michael Hartmann has updated the list of groups and projects that support unbiased history and civics education. Those listed are worth consideration by major donors looking to improve American education on a large scale, but they can also be valuable at the home-level, by providing curricula for parents who have suddenly become schoolmasters during shutdowns. See the list and report here.

Environmentalists Praise Economic Devastation
 



In this episode, supporters of the Green New Deal praise the destitution inflicted by government shut-downs; government-worker unions and state-government-interest advocates try to use the crisis to shore up already-broken state finances; and we debunk a supposed “prudential conservative case” for the power of Big Labor.
