In The Tank

The ITT crew sifts through the "Twitter Files" and highlight the facts you need to know.

Show Notes

The Heartland Institute's Donald Kendal, Jim Lakely, and Chris Talgo present episode 376 of the In The Tank Podcast. With the recent deluge of "Twitter Files," some of the most important facts have been lost in the 24/7 news cycle. But, between the revelations about the Hunter Biden laptop, the deplatforming of a sitting president, and the rampant "shadowbanning" of conservative voices, these stories are too important to ignore. The ITT crew sifts through the "Twitter Files" and highlight the facts you need to know.

What is In The Tank?

The weekly flagship podcast from The Heartland Institute features in-depth policy discussions connected to current news. Host Donald Kendal leads the discussion with the usual crew of Heartland Institute Vice President Jim Lakely, Socialism Research Center “Commissar” Justin Haskins, Editorial Director Chris Talgo, and others at this national free-market think tank. The entertaining and informative discussions often hit topics such as the environment, energy policy, Big Tech censorship, the troubling rise of socialism, globalism, health care, education, that state of freedom in America and around the world, and much more.
