The Heartland Institute’s Donald Kendal, Jim Lakely, Justin Haskins, and Chris Talgo present episode 464 of the In The Tank Podcast. This week, the ITT crew is discussing a handful of stories that revolve around some of the world's most authoritarian socialist rulers. From Brazilian President Lula going after Elon Musk and Twitter to North Korean Dictator Kim Jung Un purging government officials, it seems we are at a time when the world's socialists are desperately clinging to power. What common links can be found between these stories? And what do these events tell us about socialism in general?PRIMARY TOPIC - World's Socialists Desperately Clinging to Power Fox News - Venezuelan dictator deploys bizarre distraction as country remains in turmoil after electionhttps://www.foxnews.com/world/venezuelan-dictator-deploys-bizarre-distraction-country-remains-turmoil-election The Blaze - Elon Musk torches Democrats after former DNC leader praises suppression of free speech in Brazilhttps://www.theblaze.com/news/ellison-free-speech-brazil-musk The Blaze - Globalists push to have Elon Musk arrested as global assault on free speech kicks into overdrivehttps://www.theblaze.com/return/globalists-push-to-have-elon-musk-arrested-as-global-assault-on-free-speech-kicks-into-overdrive Daily Wire - Brazil’s Crackdown On X Should Be Warning Sign For All Americans, Legal Group Warnshttps://www.dailywire.com/news/brazils-crackdown-on-x-should-be-warning-sign-for-all-americans-legal-group-warns Fox News - North Korea’s Kim Jong Un reportedly ordered dozens of officials executed after deadly floodshttps://www.foxnews.com/world/north-koreas-kim-jong-un-reportedly-ordered-dozens-officials-executed-after-deadly-floods Daily Mail - Kamala Harris goes to 'debate camp': Insiders reveal where VP's preparation is already going 'sideways' as she gets ready for primetime Trump showdownhttps://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-13812237/kamala-harris-debate-donald-trump-prepare.html WaPo - Harris to hold final days of debate prep in Pennsylvaniahttps://www.washingtonpost.com/elections/2024/09/03/2024-election-campaign-updates-harris-trump/ In The Tank broadcasts LIVE every Thursday at 12pm CT on on The Heartland Institute YouTube channel.
