The Daily Signal Podcast: Thursday, Aug. 16

There’s no need to hike taxes to give teacher raises. The Heritage Foundation’s Jonathan Butcher outlines ways school district can cut costs in other areas—such as no longer operating 1,000 unused classrooms, as one district does—to free up dollars for hardworking teachers. Plus: A Mexican restaurant faces protests, online and offline, after sharing a photo of Attorney General Jeff Sessions eating at the restaurant.
We also cover these stories:
- Former CIA Director John Brennan no longer has a security clearance.
- Christian baker Jack Phillips is now under fire from Colorado for not baking a cake for a transgender celebration.
- Hundreds of newspapers are expected to defend the press against President Donald Trump in editorials Thursday.
