Everything Everywhere Daily - Rosie the Riveter

On December 29, 1940, a year before the United States entered the Second World War, President Franklin Roosevelt declared the United States to be an arsenal of democracy.

When the US did finally enter the war, they faced a serious problem. The population of men who would normally be called upon to work in the factories was now being sent off to war. 

The solution to the problem proved to be incredibly simple.

Learn more about Rosie the Riveter and women on the homefront during World War II on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.

NBN Book of the Day - Geoffrey Parker and Colin Martin, “Armada: The Spanish Enterprise and England’s Deliverance In 1588” (Yale UP, 2022)

In July 1588 the Spanish Armada sailed from Corunna to conquer England. Three weeks later an English fireship attack in the Channel--and then a fierce naval battle--foiled the planned invasion. Many myths still surround these events. The genius of Sir Francis Drake is exalted, while Spain's efforts are belittled. But what really happened during that fateful encounter?

Drawing on archives from around the world, Colin Martin and Geoffrey Parker also deploy vital new evidence from Armada shipwrecks off the coasts of Ireland and Scotland. Their gripping, beautifully illustrated account provides a fresh understanding of how the rival fleets came into being; how they looked, sounded, and smelled; and what happened when they finally clashed.

Looking beyond the events of 1588 to the complex politics which made war between England and Spain inevitable, and at the political and dynastic aftermath, Armada: The Spanish Enterprise and England's Deliverance In 1588 (Yale UP, 2022) deconstructs the many legends to reveal why, ultimately, the bold Spanish mission failed.

Charles Coutinho, PH. D., Associate Fellow of the Royal Historical Society, received his doctorate from New York University. His area of specialization is 19th and 20th-century European, American diplomatic and political history. He has written for Chatham House’s International Affairs, the Institute of Historical Research's Reviews in History and the University of Rouen's online periodical Cercles.

What A Day - TikTok On The Clock

The House Ethics Committee is officially investigating New York Rep. George Santos over whether he broke campaign finance laws. He’s also facing scrutiny over allegations of sexual misconduct from a prospective staffer.

Lawmakers are sounding the alarm over TikTok, with some members of Congress calling for a total ban of the video-sharing app in the U.S. TikTok has been under scrutiny for its data privacy practices, and because its parent company is based in China. 

And in headlines: Tennessee Gov. Bill Lee signed a controversial bill prohibiting drag performances into law, Finland’s Parliament gave final approval for the country to join NATO, and a reported battery fire forced a Spirit Airlines flight to make an emergency landing in Florida.

The Daily Signal - INTERVIEW | Rep. Ralph Norman Explains How Republicans Plan to Tackle America’s Spiraling National Debt, Spending

The clock is ticking on America’s debt.


“You cannot spend yourself into oblivion like this country's been doing,” Rep. Ralph Norman, R-S.C., says, adding that Republicans are “going to tackle it head-on.”


America has reached its current debt ceiling of $31.4 trillion, and Treasury’s extraordinary measures will likely be able to extend current federal spending levels until June.


Republicans say they won’t raise the debt ceiling until there is a cut in federal spending.


Norman joins “The Daily Signal Podcast” at the annual Conservative Political Action Conference just outside Washington, D.C., to explain how Republicans intend to cut spending and restore fiscal responsibility in America.

What Next | Daily News and Analysis - TBD | What Would Convince a Lab Leak Skeptic?

It was reported this week that the U.S. Department of Energy now believes, “with low confidence,” that the COVID-19 virus came from a lab. But is there enough evidence for the “lab leak theory” to convince those who believe the virus emerged from animals in a wet market?


Guest: Angela Rasmussen, virologist at the Vaccine and Infectious Disease Organization at the University of Saskatchewan in Canada.


Host: Lizzie O’Leary
