She Thinks

Josh Kraushaar joins the podcast this week to help us look toward 2024. We discuss the likelihood of Joe Biden running again, including potential Democrat competitors. On the Republican side, we consider those who’ve thrown their hat in the ring and those whom we can expect to announce their candidacy next. We also discuss the state of the Republican party — how will the many factions shake out in the next couple of years and do we expect all to rally around the eventual Republican nominee? Josh Kraushaar is the senior political correspondent at Axios and incoming editor-in-chief at Jewish Insider where he’ll be debuting a 2024 political column. His political journalism has been a trusted source for the public for well over a decade, spanning four U.S. administrations and dozens of midterm elections.

Mandy Gunasekara joins to discuss this month’s policy focus: The Painful Reality of Expensive Heat. It’s no coincidence that we picked this topic for February, typically the coldest month of the year. We look at the reasons you are paying more than ever to heat your home, why rolling brownouts and blackouts are more common, and why the environmental, social, and governance (ESG) trend ultimately increases global emissions. Finally, we discuss the launch of the new Center for Energy and Conservation.Mandy Gunasekara is a senior policy analyst at Independent Women’s Forum.
