In the latest episode of Leave Us Alone, Grover Norquist kicks things off with ATR’s Mike Palicz and James Erwin to break down the House-passed “One Big Beautiful Bill.” This sweeping package makes the Trump tax cuts permanent for individuals, eliminates federal taxes on tips and overtime, and cuts more than a trillion dollars in wasteful spending. It’s one of the most pro-growth, pro-taxpayer reforms to come out of Washington in years.

After unpacking the bill’s highlights, Grover turns to a conversation about how conservative victories like these happen in the long term. It’s not just through policy, but through strategy.

He sits down with Morton Blackwell, founder and president of the Leadership Institute, for a candid discussion about movement-building, political entrepreneurship, and the philosophy behind winning. Blackwell shares lessons from decades of training conservative leaders and explains why building institutional capacity is just as important as passing legislation.

In this episode, Grover and Morton discuss:

  • The origins and mission of the Leadership Institute
  • Why political technology and training are essential for the right
  • How to prepare the next generation of liberty-minded leaders
  • What state and federal lawmakers can learn from grassroots activists
