What Next | Daily News and Analysis - What Texas Can’t Forget

One tragedy replaces another in the headlines—that’s just how things go. 


The Texas state legislature isn’t scheduled to convene until January 2023, when the shooting at Robb Elementary in Uvalde will no longer be fresh in people’s minds, and the momentum for changing Texas’s gun laws will be long gone. One state senator, however, won’t accept that.


Guest: Roland Gutierrez, Democratic Texas State Senator for District 19, which includes Uvalde.

The Daily Signal - Her Pro-Life Center Was Attacked by Pro-Abortion Thugs. She Fears It’s ‘Going to Get Worse.’

Across the nation, pregnancy resource centers are under fire. Pro-abortion radicals are increasingly vandalizing these safe havens for women experiencing unplanned pregnancies, smashing their windows, spray-painting vulgarities on their walls, and even firebombing them.

The most recent target of this senseless violence and vandalism by pro-abortion extremists was the Blue Ridge Pregnancy Center in Lynchburg, Virginia, which was hit early Saturday morning.

Susan Campbell, the center's executive director, is incredibly disheartened by what happened.

"We're a service that's well-known, and so our community is loving and kind and supports us at every level. We were shocked to be the target of the vandalism," she says. "We were the only center in Virginia that was hit [after Roe v. Wade was overturned], and we were just deeply saddened by that."

Regrettably, Campbell doesn't think that her center will be the last to be vandalized.

"I don't think that it's going to stop, and I think that it's only going to get worse from here, simply because of the overturning of Roe v. Wade," Campbell says. "But we've been praying for this for a long time, and we're not intimidated or dissuaded from our mission."

Campbell joins the show to share her story and offer a message of hope to those mothers and mothers-to-be looking for assistance in what can be the toughest time in their lives.

We also cover these stories:

  • Health and Human Services Secretary Xavier Becerra says "every option is on the table" when asked about whether abortion clinics could be set up on federal lands in states with strict anti-abortion laws.
  • President Joe Biden responds to criticism that his policies on border security led to the deaths of 50 illegal immigrants whose bodies were discovered in a sweltering tractor-trailer in San Antonio.
  • Hillary Clinton criticizes Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas in the wake of the overturning of Roe v. Wade.

Short Wave - Climate Change Is Tough On Personal Finances

A majority of people say they have experienced extreme weather in the last five years, according to a nationwide survey conducted by NPR, the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation and the Harvard T.H. Chan School of Public Health.

And events like floods, wildfires and hurricanes are emptying bank accounts--especially when insurance can't cover the damage. Aaron Scott talks to science reporter Rebecca Hersher about the new survey, and the hidden ways climate change could impact your finances.

NPR's Book of the Day - What does ‘The Family Chao’ have in common with Dostoyevsky? Murder and more.

Patriarch Leo Chao is murdered at his restaurant at the beginning of Lan Samantha Chang's new novel The Family Chao. Eventually family secrets and bitterness reveal themselves — much like a Dostoyevsky novel, from whom Chao took a lot of inspiration. But NPR's Scott Simon points out that even though this novel is about a murder, it's quite funny. Chang told Simon that she just enjoyed writing it so much that humor became part of it.

Hayek Program Podcast - Liberalism for All — The Political Economy of Inequality

On this episode of the Hayek Program Podcast, we continue a special summer series of the podcast on Liberalism for All, hosted by Jayme Lemke as she explores the underpinnings and outworkings of a free and open society. Driving the discussion is a set of core questions, including:

  • What does it mean to be liberal in the 21st century?
  • What is the relationship between liberalism and equality?
  • Is the pursuit of equality a threat or opportunity for the liberal project?

Joining Lemke for this episode is Mikayla Novak, a doctoral candidate in sociology at The Australian National University and former economist with her PhD in economics from RMIT University. Lemke and Novak begin their conversation by asking how liberalism connects to the question of inequality and the extent to which someone with liberal convictions should be concerned about inequality. Building on this, Novak explores how social exclusion and biases contribute to inequality and how she managed to include an analysis of these phenomena in her work. As they conclude, Novak shares what she sees as the greatest opportunities going forward to move towards the vision of a society of freely relating dignified equals.
