WATCH: As we begin our journey toward @America250, I'm reminded of Ronald Reagan's words at our 200th in a poignant radio address titled, "Shaping the World for 100 Years to Come." We used to speech to celebrate @PepperdineSPP's own 25th anniversary, and it continues to ground our work, preparing public leaders who will, indeed, shape our nation and world for 100 years to come. https://t.co/yhl5IQvvfG

This is Olympic-level DNC'ing. You can't DNC any harder than this. https://t.co/DEzEbCvDiz

Sometimes the ad algorithm just nails it. Seeing public policy differently from @PepperdineSPP...

What a night, celebrating great public leadership in #DTLA! Last night's James Q. Wilson Award for Public Service was presented to @CommissBratton by @RickCarusoLA at an inspiring dinner event, which highlighted the importance of courage, community-building, and our "moral sense."

NEW REPORT: @PepperdineSPP and @BeaconEconomics analyze the ongoing economic impacts on Malibu's small businesses from the #palisadesfire - esp the #PCH closures. 70% DROP in revs for some businesses with follow on decreases in revs to @CityMalibu. We need to open PCH NOW. https://t.co/bX24XoV6Tt

"I don't think parents should be telling schools what to teach." - Terry McAuliffe, VA Gov Candidate, 2021, leading to his defeat by Youngkin.

This is, essentially, what our Governor is saying TODAY when he lets these kinds of arguments from the CTA go unanswered.

For the first time since WWII, every governing party facing election in a developed country this year lost vote share, via @jburnmurdoch

2024 Democrats are the red dot.

Absolutely critical context to any postmortem.

Wonderful to see our friends at the @RonaldReagan post this video from Pres. Reagan's first POST-presidency remarks @pepperdine. RR's speech about political reform is interesting, but it's how he answers 45 mins of student ?'s that's really remarkable. https://t.co/MDrrYITPY4
