When I started my advocacy, the Cuomo administration would say, well, she's just the weather lady.

She doesn't know what she's talking about, right? But a weather forecast can change the world.

This is the Daily Settle podcast for Tuesday, January 17th. I'm Virginia Allen.

And that was Fox News meteorologist Janice Dean, discussing her new book, I Am the Storm.

Not long after the pandemic began, Dean lost both her in-laws to COVID-19. They had been staying

in nursing homes in New York. Months later, Dean would discover that it was likely the actions

of then-New York Governor Andrew Cuomo that led to her family members' deaths.

Dean says it was not that Cuomo issued an ignorant order to send the COVID positive elderly

back to nursing homes that troubled her, but that Cuomo intentionally tried to cover up and lie

about his actions. Instead of losing herself in grief, Dean turned her anger into a mission to

expose Cuomo's actions. In her new book, I Am the Storm, Janice Dean tells her story of taking down

one of the most powerful men in New York. She also shares the stories of more than a dozen other

men and women who have turned their hardship into an opportunity for good. Dean joins me on the show

today to share these stories of grit and determination. Stay tuned for our conversation after this.

As conservatives, sometimes it feels like we're constantly on defense against bad ideas.

Bad philosophy, revisionist history, junk science, and device of politics.

But here's something I've come to understand. When faced with bad ideas, it's not enough to just

defend. If we want to save this country, then it's time to go on offense. Conservative

principles are ideas that work. Individual responsibility, strong local communities,

and belief in the American dream. As a former college professor and current president of

the Heritage Foundation, my life's mission is to learn, educate, and take action.

My podcast, The Kevin Roberts Show, is my opportunity to share that journey with you.
