, I'm excited to share the latest from CRC with you:
Are there limits to union power? ([link removed]
This week, the U.S. Supreme Court decided Cedar Point Nursery v. Hassid, a challenge to California's agricultural unionization law. That law forces farms to let union organizers "take access" of their property in order to conduct union organizing activities. The Court said the requirement is so broad that it amounts to government taking the property for its own purposes, and so the farms deserve compensation.

Who complained about my piece on disinformation hypocrites? ([link removed]
A week ago, I reported on left-wing mega-donors' hypocritically attacking conservative "disinformation" even as they subsidize their own side's disinfo campaigns. That led a p.r. representative for Kathryn Murdoch, one of my targets, to accuse me of making a "bad faith argument" because I "conflated" Murdoch's giving to one left-wing group with giving to a separate left-wing group. When I responded that the two groups are literally parent and child, because one owns and controls the other, the best Ms. Murdoch and her flack could do is to keep insisting the two groups are technically separate. Read the funny story, including our emails back and forth, here ([link removed]
Why is the Left reviving FDR's Civilian Conservation Corps? ([link removed]
At a time when the Left is reclassifying almost everything as "infrastructure," it should come as no surprise that someone would want to revive President Franklin Roosevelt's Civilian Conservation Corps (CCC) as the "Civilian Climate Corps." This proposal would check off multiple boxes: (1) pay back Big Labor; (2) pander to the "Pajama Boys"; (3) appease "environmental justice" warriors.

Which think tanks are staffing the Biden administration? ([link removed]
Several high-ranking officials came from the president's own favorite institutions: the Penn Biden Center for Diplomacy and Global Engagement and the left-of-center American Prospect. Others came from the Center for American Progress, the unions' Economic Policy Institute, and Demos. In the first of a series of reports, CRC's Robert Stilson identifies the nonprofits exerting heavy influence on the administration here ([link removed]

InfluenceWatch Podcast 174The History of
Big Tech Censorship ([link removed] this episode ([link removed] Tech is dominated by the major social media and online communications companies like Facebook, Apple, Amazon, Netflix, and Google—FAANG, for short.
