Ken Burns calls PBS the 'Declaration of Independence' for communication, decries its defunding
Longtime documentary filmmaker Ken Burns praised the Public Broadcasting Service (PBS) as the "Declaration of Independence" for communications while lamenting the loss of its federal funding on Wednesday.
Burns discussed his recent documentary "The American Revolution" on the "Hasan Minhaj Doesn't Know" podcast, but the subject eventually turned to President Donald Trump cutting funding to the Corporation for Public Broadcasting, which helps fund PBS, after Congress passed a federal rescissions package in July.
Burns, whose documentaries have long aired on PBS, said he believes the network will survive without the funding but warned that the impact of the cuts will be felt most in rural states.

"They will now be a news desert," Burns said. "No one will be covering the school board or the city council meeting. It's where people are dependent not just on children's and prime-time schedules but on classrooms of the air and continuing education. I know this doesn't sound sexy, but you also get emergency warning stuff. What happens as in the tumult of climate change and just the normal pattern of disasters? What happens when you don't have that signal available?"
He continued, "This is a serious thing. Hugely devastating for Alaska, for the Dakotas, for eastern Tennessee, for lots of other places that really stand a chance of losing this last communication. I actually think that public broadcasting is the Declaration of Independence applied to communications."
PROMINENT LIBERALS AND MEDIA FIGURES DECLARE CUTS TO PBS, NPR A ‘PERILOUS MOMENT’
Fox News Digital reached out to the White House for comment.
PBS CEO Paula Kerger made similar comments in April, warning the White House in a statement that cutting funding to public broadcasting would "devastate" rural areas that rely on emergency services.
"Rescinding these funds would devastate PBS member stations and the essential role they play in communities, particularly smaller and rural stations who rely on federal funding for a larger portion of their budgets. Without PBS member stations, Americans will lose unique local programming and emergency services in times of crisis," Kerger said.
The Corporation for Public Broadcasting announced in August that it would begin shutting down operations as a result of the spending cuts.
Erika Kirk shares emotional Thanksgiving message honoring Charlie: ‘What remains is sacred’
Erika Kirk marked her family’s first Thanksgiving without her husband, Charlie Kirk, with a heartfelt message about grief, gratitude and faith.
Kirk, the wife of late conservative icon and TPUSA founder Charlie Kirk, posted on Instagram on Thursday that her and Charlie "always loved Thanksgiving because it drew us back to the simple, but holy practice of gratitude."
"And even now, well, especially now, in the depths of the ache, I’m reminded of that gratitude," she wrote. "God blessed me with being married to the love of my life, with our beautiful babies, with our family and friends, and with people from all over the world who have sent us letters, toys, artwork, and Bibles."

The Turning Point CEO continued, "It’s easy to fixate on what’s been taken, at what’s missing. But my goodness does the Lord meet me in my weakness, and His strength gently shifts my eyes to what I still have on this side of heaven."
Kirk added, "What remains is sacred."
Charlie Kirk was assassinated in September at the age of 31, leaving behind Erika and their two children – a daughter born in 2022 and a son born in 2024.

Kirk noted that her family has received a stream of support in the months following her husband’s death, writing, "I can’t express what the outpouring of love has meant to me and the babies. I’m reading every letter and card, opening every gift, and saving each one for them when they’re older."
She also shared a video showing a mountain of gifts and letters as she reflected on how she describes Heaven to her children.
"Heaven’s our home," she said. "I just want her to know that daddy is having so much fun and building a place for her and our family."
Kirk finished her post by wishing Charlie a happy Thanksgiving, writing, "We’ll save a plate for you babe."
Angel Families thank Trump in new Thanksgiving video for his border security efforts: 'We appreciate you'
The American Border Story (TABS) has released a powerful new video featuring Angel Families — those who have lost loved ones to crimes tied to the border crisis — expressing gratitude to President Trump for his tough stance on immigration enforcement.
The 11-minute video, released on Nov. 22 in honor of Thanksgiving and featuring country music artist Alexis Wilkins, includes more than a dozen messages from Angel Families thanking Trump and his administration.
Joe Abraham, whose daughter Katie was killed in a drunken-driving accident caused by an illegal immigrant, thanked the president for prioritizing border security and "keeping our community safe."
"We hope you continue the dedication towards that," Joe Abraham said. "… We really don't want any other families to have to suffer the pain and despair that we're going through right now. So keep it up, and we appreciate you. Happy Thanksgiving."

Anne Fundner, who lost her 15-year-old son Weston to fentanyl poisoning, thanked President Trump and called him "the greatest president America has ever had."
"You spoke his name with honor and reminded me that Weston is looking down so proud," Fundner said. "President Trump, you work tirelessly, nonstop to protect Americans and keep our country safe. I am so honored and grateful to call you my president. I thank God for you every single day."
Agnes Gibboney, whose son Ronald Da Silva was murdered by an illegal immigrant in California in 2002, thanked Trump for his "courage, strength, determination, and love for our country."

In closing the video, Wilkins thanked the Trump administration for "the leaps and bounds made in infrastructure, in legislation, and in justice for these families and everything that they have been through."
"On behalf of everyone at The American Border Story, thank you, Mr. President. Happy Thanksgiving," Wilkins said.
Trump says US will begin stopping Venezuelan drug traffickers by land: 'Going to start very soon'
President Trump on Thursday said the U.S. will "very soon" begin stopping suspected Venezuelan drug traffickers "by land."
Speaking to U.S. service members on Thanksgiving, Trump praised the U.S. Air Force's 7th Bomb Wing at Dyess Air Force Base in Abilene, Texas, and their efforts to deter Venezuelan drug networks.
"In recent weeks, you've been working to deter Venezuelan drug traffickers, of which there are many," Trump said. "Of course, there aren't too many coming in by sea anymore. Have you probably noticed that?"
The president noted that drug traffickers are killing "hundreds of thousands of people a year" in the U.S. from the "poisons" that they bring in.
US TROOPS IN VENEZUELA? TRUMP HINTS MAJOR MOVES POSSIBLE AS TENSIONS SOAR
"From sending their poisons into the United States, where they kill hundreds of thousands of people a year — but we're going to take care of that situation," Trump said. "We're already doing a lot… It's about 85% stopped by sea."
The president added, "You probably noticed that now people aren't wanting to be delivering by sea, and we'll be starting to stop them by land also. The land is easier, but that's going to start very soon."
"We warn them, ‘stop sending poison to our country’," Trump said.
US MILITARY KILLS 2 SUSPECTED NARCO-TERRORISTS IN 16TH EASTERN PACIFIC STRIKE, HEGSETH SAYS
Earlier this month, Trump said he was not ruling out sending U.S. ground troops into Venezuela amid his administration's crackdown on criminal networks tied to the country's top leadership and drugs that are exported from it.
"No, I don't rule out that, I don't rule out anything," Trump said Nov. 17 when asked if he had ruled out sending U.S. troops to Venezuela.
Since early September, strikes across the Eastern Pacific and Caribbean have destroyed dozens of vessels, many tied to Venezuela’s Tren de Aragua gang and Colombia’s Ejército de Liberación Nacional.
The administration has since carried out at least 21 fatal strikes on the boats.
The White House did not immediately respond to Fox News Digital's request for comment.

What is Evacuation Day? The forgotten holiday that predates Thanksgiving -- and once eclipsed July 4
When President Abraham Lincoln first proclaimed Thanksgiving a national holiday, little did he know he was spelling the beginning of the end to the prominence of the original patriotic celebration held during the last week of November: Evacuation Day.
In November 1863, Lincoln issued an order thanking God for harvest blessings, and by the 1940s, Congress had declared the 11th month of the calendar year's fourth Thursday to be Thanksgiving Day.
That commemoration, though, combined with the gradual move toward détente with what is now the U.S.' strongest ally – Great Britain – displaced the day Americans celebrated the last of the Redcoats fleeing their land.
Following the Declaration of Independence in Philadelphia in 1776, New York City — just 99 miles to the northeast — remained a British stronghold until the end of the Revolutionary War.
Captured Continentals were held aboard prison ships in New York Harbor and British political activity in the West was anchored in the Big Apple, according to the Department of Veterans Affairs.
GEORGE WASHINGTON'S SACRED TRADITION
However, that all came crashing down on the crown after the Treaty of Paris was signed, and new "Americans" eagerly saw the British out of their hard-won home on Nov. 25, 1783.
In their haste to flee the U.S., the British took time to grease flagpoles that still flew the Union Jack. One prominent post was at Bennett Park – on present-day West 183 Street near the northern tip of Manhattan.
Undeterred, Sgt. John van Arsdale, a Revolution veteran, cobbled together cleats that allowed him to climb the slick pole and tear down the then-enemy flag. Van Arsdale replaced it with the Stars and Stripes – and without today's skyscrapers in the way, the change of colors at the island's highest point could be seen farther downtown.
In the harbor, a final blast from a British warship aimed for Staten Island, but missed a crowd that had assembled to watch the 6,000-man military begin its journey back across the Atlantic to King George III.
SYLVESTER STALLONE CALLS TRUMP ‘THE SECOND GEORGE WASHINGTON’
Later that day, future President George Washington and New York Gov. George Clinton – who had negotiated "evacuation" with England's Canadian Gov. Sir Guy Carleton – led a military march down Broadway through throngs of revelers to what would today be the Wall Street financial district at the other end of Manhattan.
Clinton hosted Washington for dinner and a "Farewell Toast" at nearby Fraunces' Tavern, which houses a museum dedicated to the original U.S. holiday. Samuel Fraunces, who owned the watering hole, provided food and reportedly intelligence to the Continental Army.
Washington convened at Fraunces' just over a week later to announce his leave from the Army, surrounded by Clinton and other top Revolutionary figures like German-born Gen. Friedrich von Steuben – whom New York's Oktoberfest-styled parade officially honors, but who is often supplanted by beer themes elsewhere.
AMERICA'S OLDEST INDEPENDENCE DAY PARADE MARKS 240 YEARS OF PATRIOTIC TRADITION
"With a heart full of love and gratitude, I now take leave of you. I most devoutly wish that your latter days may be as prosperous and happy, as your former ones have been glorious and honorable," Washington said.
Before Lincoln – and later Congress – normalized Thanksgiving as the mass family affair it has become, Evacuation Day was more prominent than both its successor and Independence Day, according to several sources, including Untapped New York.
November 25 was a school holiday in the 19th century and people re-created van Arsdale's climb up the Bennett Park flagpole. Formal dinners were held at the Plaza Hotel and other upscale institutions for many years, according to the outlet.
The New York Public Library reportedly holds a Delmonico's Steakhouse menu from the Evacuation Day centennial celebration in 1783; with celebrants dining on fish, pheasant and turkey, according to Eurasia Review.
An official parade reminiscent of today's Macy's Thanksgiving Parade was held every year in New York until the 1910s.

As diplomatic relations with the United Kingdom warmed heading into the 20th century and the U.S. alliance with London during the World Wars proved crucial, celebrating Evacuation Day became less and less prominent.
Into the 2010s, however, commemorative flag-raisings have been sporadically held at Bowling Green, the southern endpoint of Broadway.
For the 242nd anniversary of Evacuation Day in 2025, the Lower Manhattan Historical Association reportedly held a procession on Saturday from Fraunces' to Evacuation Day Plaza – where in present-day, the Wall Street "bull" is found.
A flag-raising then took place across the street at Bowling Green, according to DowntownNY. The historic greenspace is the oldest public park in the city and was a regular gathering place in British-Colonial New York.
On the original Evacuation Day, Washington's dinner at Fraunces Tavern was preceded by the new U.S. Army marching down the iconic avenue to formally take back New York.
Thirteen toasts – marking the number of United States – were raised at Fraunces, each one spelling out the new government's hope for the new nation or giving thanks to those who helped it come to be.
An aide to Washington wrote them down for posterity, and the Sons of the American Revolution recite them at an annual dinner, according to the tavern's museum site.
"To the United States of America," the first toast went. The second honored King Louis XVI, whose French Army was crucial in America's victory.
"To the vindicators of the rights of mankind in every quarter of the globe," read another. "May a close union of the states guard the temple they have erected to liberty."
The 13th toast offered a warning to any other country that might ever seek to invade the new U.S.:
"May the remembrance of this day be a lesson to princes."
Dem strategist says adding 500 National Guard troops in DC would create 'more targets'
A Democrat strategist told CNN Wednesday that adding 500 additional National Guard troops in Washington, D.C. would create "more targets" for shootings.
CNN host Erica Hill asked Democrat strategist Donte Mills on "CNN NewsNight" about the legal battle of keeping the National Guard in the nation's capital in the aftermath of Wednesday's shooting that critically injured two guardsmen.
"The administration filing this emergency today saying we want to keep them in, and the president saying, I want 500 more troops. How much does that sort of muddy the waters legally, given everything that we saw today?" Hill asked.
"I think the president is going to use — his administration is going to use this incident to further their cause of having these Guardsmen on the street," Mills said.
On Wednesday, two young National Guard members, Sarah Beckstrom, 20, and Andrew Wolfe, 24, were shot in Washington, D.C. They had been sworn into service less than 24 hours before the attack, U.S. Attorney for the District of Columbia Jeanine Pirro said on Thursday.
The shooting suspect, Rahmanullah Lakanwal, a 29-year-old Afghan national, had entered the U.S. legally in 2021 under humanitarian parole which was part of the Biden administration's Operation Allies Welcome, following the U.S. withdrawal from Afghanistan.
Following the shooting, Secretary of War Pete Hegseth said President Donald Trump asked him to deploy 500 additional troops to Washington, D.C.
But Mills said the additional guardsman would just be "more targets" for shootings.
"The issue that we have is, if you add 500 people to this equation, 500 soldiers, it wouldn‘t have stopped what happened today," Mills said. "He walked up on soldiers and opened fire. It would have just been more targets there. These people are there, their assignment is high-visibility patrol.
"So, people know where they are. They‘re uniformed, so people know what they look like. And if they want to approach them or harm them, they‘re in harm‘s way. So why add to that and put more people in harm‘s way, when it wouldn‘t have changed the outcome in this particular matter?"
Asked by Hill if additional guardsmen would keep D.C. safer, Paul Rieckhoff, a Iraq War veteran, said, "I don‘t think so. I mean, maybe potentially in those immediate areas. But I think the bigger question is this. Any time the commander in chief sends men and women into harm‘s way, he has to explain why it‘s absolutely necessary. And the question should be, is this absolutely necessary?"
Attorney General Pam Bondi says the Justice Department will do "everything in our power" to seek the death penalty for Lakanwal.
'Mormon Wives' star Whitney Leavitt sends clear message to haters after 'Dancing with the Stars' elimination
"The Secret Lives of Mormon Wives" star Whitney Leavitt sent a clear message to her haters after being eliminated from "Dancing with the Stars."
One day after the finale crowned Robert Irwin and Witney Carson as season 34's winners, Leavitt and her partner, Mark Ballas, appeared on Alex Cooper's "Call Her Daddy" podcast to perform one last final freestyle.
On Nov. 26, Leavitt and Ballas were able to perform their dance that was intended for the finale. They were eliminated from the show during the semi-finals.
"The fans are distraught because they wanted a freestyle dance. They’re like, ‘How are we not gonna see a Mark and Whitney freestyle dance? Even if they didn’t win, at least just give us that. At least let us see the dance,'" Cooper prefaced their performance.
HILARIA BALDWIN EXPLAINS ALEC'S ABSENCE FROM 'DANCING WITH THE STARS' AFTER STEAMY FIRST WEEK
"So, I don’t know if anyone’s noticed, but we’re currently sitting in the middle of a dance floor. And I was wondering if, Whitney and Mark, you would do us the absolute honor of performing your freestyle last dance," the podcast host said.
During the episode, "Dancing with the Stars" announcer Alan Dedicoat introduced Leavitt and Ballas to a cover of Frank Sinatra's "My Way." Incorporated into the dance was sparkly outfit changes, fake blood and metaphors to the online hate both Leavitt and Ballas have received since competing on the show.
On the podcast, Ballas read out some direct messages he received while competing on the show.
"‘Are you that cheap of a c--- to rot and do this? Damn, you’re special. You’re completely worthless, and I hope you f---ing burn in hell one day,'" he read aloud.

He continued, "That’s just one of them. And they’re relentless like that, over a dance show."
"I think also the thing is it’s like, I think there’s a narrative of like well, you wanted to be in the entertainment industry you signed up for this," Ballas said. "I signed up to dance, to choreograph, to make music, to be on stage, to entertain people, to bring happiness, to bring joy."
‘DANCING WITH THE STARS’ WINNER SAYS SHOW IS ‘MENTAL WARFARE’
Leavitt noted that she's "definitely become a little bit more desensitized" due to her rise to fame being from reality television.
"I’ve experienced it for years. But I think like what was a little bit triggering was watching someone experience that for the first time for something for what? Like it just it made no sense to me," Leavitt continued. "And then I also at times felt like it was my fault because I was like, ‘Oh, like maybe it’s because of me, maybe it’s because he’s partnered with me.’ So then it felt like my fault. Like it was just like a roller coaster of emotions during that time."
Following the elimination and before the podcast appearance, Leavitt took to Instagram and shared a tearful video, expressing her appreciation for being able to compete on the show.
"I'm just gonna speak from the heart, and share what I'm feeling. I share the good, I share the bad, I share the ugly. So I'm just gonna keep doing that," she began.

"When you're casted on 'Dancing with the Stars,' you are seeing these people hours every single day," Leavitt continued. "Then it just stops. It genuinely feels like a breakup. It feels like I'm, like, going through withdrawals right now. Today just felt so weird."
Leavitt concluded her video with gratitude for the friendships she made, especially with Ballas.

"Like, I loved every bit of it, but the one thing that I have loved the most that I wasn't expecting was getting a lifelong friend, a friend who makes fart noises every single day. I'm just so grateful. I love you guys. And I f------- love this show."
On "Call Her Daddy," Leavitt suspected that her drama on "Mormon Wives" played a factor in her elimination. Ballas said he's not too familiar with her reality TV show, he "couldn't even pinpoint" their elimination being because of one thing.
"Sometimes this s--- happens," Ballas said.
"I think with such a stacked cast and really great talent, great talent all around, you get to the point where we don't know the votes. Maybe some week, someone who's been voting one way will be like, 'You know what? I'm gonna throw these votes this way,'" he continued.
Irwin and Carson beat influencer Alix Earle and partner Val Chmerkovskiy during the finale.
Irwin took to Instagram to share, "dreams do come true," after taking home the coveted mirror ball. Prince William and Kate Middleton congratulated him on his big win. "Congratulations Robert and Witney!" they commented on the post, adding a disco ball and star emoji.
Browns' Shedeur Sanders defends Kevin Stefanski against 'sabotage' claims from supporters
Cleveland Browns rookie quarterback Shedeur Sanders made franchise history with his Week 12 win over the Las Vegas Raiders, and head coach Kevin Stefanski is keeping him in place as the team’s starter heading into this week.
There is, however, a group of Sanders fans who have been saying all season that Stefanski was "sabotaging" the Colorado product. Sanders says otherwise.
The fifth-round pick by the Browns was speaking to reporters when one reporter said, "All your supporters out there say that Kevin Stefanski was sabotaging you."

"So, you just want to start trouble, huh?" Sanders responded during his press conference.
Though Dillon Gabriel, the rookie quarterback taken two rounds before Sanders back in April, was cleared to play this week after being in concussion protocol, Stefanski named Sanders the Browns’ starter.
So, after a follow-up question about what Sanders’ relationship is like with his head coach, he emphasized how little the outside perspective on his situation in Cleveland matters.
SHEDEUR SANDERS ‘THANKFUL’ FOR TRUMP'S SUPPORT AMID WILD START TO NFL CAREER
"What people do outside the building isn’t really in my control," he responded. "It’s not in my power. So I don’t — you act like I go out there and tell them to do whatever. You know, that’s not nothing I control or nothing I can do.
"Overall, I’m just happy to be here. Coach Stefanski has been coaching since I got here, and he’s been doing a great job with everything that’s going on."
Sanders added that his relationship with Stefanski is "definitely like a coach," which involves telling him "what I need to do, on and off the field."
"We’ve definitely grown — our relationship and everything has grown. So I’m just thankful to be here."
Sanders became the first Browns rookie quarterback since 1999 to win his first career start after the 24-10 victory over the Raiders. He secured his first career touchdown pass thanks to the speed of rookie running back Dylan Sampson sprinting through Las Vegas’ defense for a 66-yard catch-and-run score.
Sanders also showcased strong accuracy, finding rookie receiver Isaiah Bond for a 52-yard strike that would’ve been his first touchdown if it wasn’t for a shoestring tackle.
Sanders’ performance was a breath of fresh air for Cleveland fans, who saw the team’s third win this season. Even President Donald Trump showed praise for the young signal-caller.
"Shedeur Sanders was GREAT. Wins first game, career start, as a pro (for Cleveland). Great Genes. I TOLD YOU SO!"
Sanders acknowledged Trump’s support.
"I’m just thankful for him, even taking time out of his day to be able to speak out and support," he said, via 92.3 The Fan.
Sanders will be facing a tough San Francisco 49ers defense in his first career start at home in Cleveland.

Packers' 4th down aggressiveness trumps Lions' decisions to complete season sweep
The Green Bay Packers-Detroit Lions rivalry belongs to the Cheeseheads in 2025.
The Packers completed the season sweep with a 31-24 victory on the road on Thanksgiving afternoon.
Green Bay was aggressive early, scoring a pair of touchdowns on fourth down in the first half. With 25 seconds left in the half, though, Jameson Williams scampered for a 22-yard touchdown to bring Detroit to within three, and the Lions got the ball to start the half.

The momentum was short-lived, though, as the Lions weren’t as successful when matching the Packers’ aggressiveness. Jahmyr Gibbs was stopped on a 4th and 3, giving the Packers the ball near midfield. On just the second play, Jordan Love found Christian Watson for a 51-yard score to put Green Bay up, 24-14.
The Lions answered quickly, as Jared Goff connected with Isaac Teslaa for a touchdown to make it a three-point game again, but the Packers matched it with Dontayvion Wicks' second touchdown of the afternoon.
Detroit was driving down the field in the fourth and went for it again on fourth down in field goal range, but Jameson Williams, who had been cooking with Amon-Ra St. Brown injured early, dropped what would have been a first down, giving the Packers the ball.
SHEDEUR SANDERS 'THANKFUL' FOR TRUMP'S SUPPORT AMID WILD START TO NFL CAREER
The Packers punted and Detroit drove again, with the help of a defensive penalty on a third-and-15 sack. They did have to settle for a field goal, though. With an option to punt, the Packers decided to go for it on fourth down to ice the game, and Wicks came up with a tremendous grab well beyond the sticks to all but end it. Love knelt out the clock for their eighth victory of the season.
It was the first time the Packers won both games against Detroit in a season since 2020, and it will certainly matter in the playoff hunt.
Love threw four touchdowns, two of which were to Wicks. The others were to Christian Watson and Romeo Doubs.
The Packers are now 8-3-1, while Detroit fell to 7-5. Green Bay has another NFC North date next week when they host the Chicago Bears. Detroit will stay home to host the Dallas Cowboys.

DNC chair touts election wins, says he never wants to hear about 'problem with young men' again
Democratic National Committee Chair Ken Martin celebrated recent electoral wins by his party and said because of the victories, he doesn't want to hear about the party having a problem with young male voters ever again.
"I never want to hear again that the Democratic Party has a problem with young men," DNC Chair Ken Martin said at a press conference, according to Politico. "We’re going to keep working hard to keep them in our camp and our coalition, for sure, but we won across the board with every major constituency that left our party last year, and that should tell you something again, that the Democratic Party is back."
Since the 2024 election, the Democratic Party has been working to figure out how to win back voters from key constituencies like young men. But after the victories of both Virginia governor-elect Abigail Spanberger, a moderate Democrat, and New York City mayor-elect Zohran Mamdani, a progressive, Martin believes the party is on the right track.
He reportedly also said that young people feel "disillusioned" by the lack of job opportunities, something he blamed on President Donald Trump's administration.
Prior to the off-year elections, James Carville, a veteran strategist for the Democratic Party, warned that far-left messaging and policies were hurting the Democratic Party’s image with young men.
"They were told, ‘The future is female, you must always believe the woman is never wrong, #MeToo,'" Carville said on a podcast in July. "And men are like, ‘S---, do I count? What about my life? I mean, we're only 48% of the voting population.’"
More recently, he has argued that any future president from either party will have to move in a more economically populist direction to win back young people who cannot afford the same standard of living as their parents and grandparents.
KEY TAKEAWAYS FROM THE 2025 ELECTIONS
In March, New York Times columnist Ezra Klein spoke with a Democratic pollster David Shor about how "75-year-old White men supported Kamala Harris at a significantly higher rate than 20-year-old White men."
"It is a real shift," Shor agreed. "This is the thing I am the most shocked by in the last four years — that young people have gone from being the most progressive generation since the Baby Boomers, and maybe even in some ways more so, to becoming potentially the most conservative generation that we’ve experienced maybe in 50 to 60 years."
NYU professor Scott Galloway argued that the affordability crisis made people turn against Democrats in 2024. He argued in a podcast in November that one of the biggest shifts he noticed in the 2024 election was middle-aged women toward the GOP, suggesting that mothers were voting for Republicans in order to help their struggling sons.
