Teachers' unions have long been among the most influential forces shaping education policy, but new research suggests their grip is weakening across the country. In this episode, Siena Rose uses an article from The Lion to help break down what the decline of union influence means for teachers, parents, and public employees—and why growing worker freedom is reshaping the education landscape.
Kelley LaBedz has worked as a senior litigator, civil court director, HR director, and history teacher—so if there's anything she knows, it's America's law and culture. In this episode of The New Frontline podcast, LaBedz shares eye-opening stories from her eight years in the classroom and explains how she helped advocate for Florida's SB 1296—an essential reform for union accountability. Kelley and Siena discuss how union priorities can compromise your rights and your voice at the bargaining table, and why it's important to fight back.
Writer, speaker, and parental advocate Sara Huff joins The New Frontline with Siena Rose to discuss her journey from radical left-wing activism in Brazil to becoming a vocal advocate for family values and parental rights.Sara shares how she was drawn into feminist and activist circles, what made her walk away, and why she sees alarming similarities between the ideological movements she witnessed in Brazil and those influencing American schools and teachers unions today. Her story offers a powerful perspective on the culture war and the fight over the future of education.
Randi Weingarten is furious that we're telling the world about the unethical use of her union's funding to subsidize her new anti-American book. Siena dives into a recent Freedom Foundation report that uncovered that the AFT spent over $1.4 million in member dues to write, edit, and promote Weingarten's personal vanity project — and her only response was a press release full of personal attacks. Even worse, the very next day she demanded an investigation into a CEO for doing exactly what she just did with her members' money.
California teacher and lawsuit plaintiff Barry Blisten sits down with Siena Rose to share his firsthand experience watching the United Teachers of Los Angeles' shift from protecting teachers to pushing divisive political agendas funded by mandatory dues. He breaks down what exclusive union representation means for teachers' rights, why he chose to fight back, and what he hopes the public takes away from his battle for fair representation.
Siena Rose sits down with Natalya Murakhver to talk about her nonprofit Restore Childhood, their new "15 Days" film and her goal to educate others on the dangers that far-left activists and union leaders present. Murakhver shares how her experience navigating school shutdowns led her to launch parent-focused initiatives and challenge what she sees as growing political influence within education systems. The conversation explores themes of parental rights, free speech, and the competing visions for the future of public education in the United States.
Siena went to Chicago undercover to cover the May Day protests, capturing unfiltered footage and interviews with attendees to document what was actually happening on the ground. What she found raises serious questions about the role of unions, the presence of students at these events, and how radical ideology gets packaged in spaces deceptively framed as educational. Unions like the Chicago Teachers Union aren't representing workers — they're indoctrination pipelines that have no problem using America's children to advance a political agenda.
*The New Frontline with Siena Rose – a podcast and variety show from the Freedom Foundation.* Are teachers unions still focused on students—or have they shifted toward politics? Siena Rose sits down with Heritage Foundation researcher Madison Doan to break down new polling, union activism, classroom influence, and the growing disconnect between what parents want and what unions are prioritizing.
