Bookworm Room's Podcast

The new law in Massachusetts allowing abortion to birth is a Moloch law, and AOC's decision to freeze her eggs is a weird, creepy, anti-woman way of announcing a run for president, but those topics are so obviously awful that they didn't leave a lot of scope for me. Instead, I wanted to discuss how an unearthed video of Hasan Piker just a few years ago perfectly illustrates the non-black Muslim disdain for blacks. You don't have to look far for examples, since Muslims ran parts of the African slave trade for 1,200 years, and uncounted millions of Blacks vanished into the Muslim world as slaves.

Germany was unified in 1866, bringing together a hodgepodge of duchies and kingdoms, none of which was very powerful, but all of which shared a sort of Germanic culture. Kaiser Wilhelm's dreams of an All-Powerful German nation died on the battlefields of WWI, while Hitler's dreams of a racially pure Thousand-Year Reich died on the battlefields of WWII. Germany was broken in half, and that seemed to be the end of its ability to be a problem. However, Germany was not done making mischief. When it was finally reunified in 1990, it became the most powerful country in the EU and, in 2015, opened the door to mass radical Islamic immigration, destroying Europe and, potentially, the entire West.

If you want to see me get mad, rub my face in the fact that South Carolina has an open primary. Listen to this video to hear why, complete with examples from how the largest circulation paper in the state, the Post and Courier, is trying to game the open primary system. Also, I offer my personal endorsement (this is NOT an endorsement from American Thinker) to my friend Duke Buckner, someone whom I know personally and respect greatly, whose prescience I admire, and whose pro-American values I strongly support. If you want to learn more about Duke, you can find his campaign website here.

Chick-Lit used to be wholesome and patriotic. A perfect example is a book by D.E. Stevenson, a very popular British mid-century women's writer. Her book, Listening Valley, embodies the patriotism necessary for a country to win wars. We no longer have that patriotism, so it's questionable whether we can still win wars.

Winston Churchill famously said that an appeaser is one who feeds the crocodile in the hope that it will eat him last. Now that the radical Abdul El-Sayed, a Muslim socialist, has become the Democrat nominee for U.S. Senate in Michigan, old-line Democrats are running scared—and they're right, too, because the Democratic Socialists of America and Muslims have made it clear that they're not going to be the last to go but the first.

Jason Arday, a storied black academic at Cambridge University in the UK, and Angel Reese, a less storied black basketball player in the WBA, have both had their narratives called into question. Arday's fall from grace (allegations of plagiarism and lies about his past) has become a cause célèbres, while almost no one noticed what was going on with Reese's little Barbie tale. However, both speak to a ginormous shift in black culture, from one grounded in the Christian notion of truth to one that—at least among academics and others marinated in leftism—has broken free of facts thanks to post-modern victim culture.

Last week, DataRepublican (Jennica Pounds) announced that her new book, Unelected: How You Paid a Sinister Elite to Take Over America, is coming out in October. She added that she and her ghostwriter, Joshua Lisec, will be giving interviews. I instantly pounced on that opportunity, so Joshua and I arranged an interview. I found what Joshua had to say fascinating, for he expanded on the book's basic premise: A taxpayer-funded NGO complex has become a supranational force that weakens American sovereignty, advances left-wing causes, and prioritizes global humanitarianism and cheap labor over constitutional stability and national cohesion. Nor does Joshua let Republicans off the hook, for he explains that supranationalism is essentially the reductio ad absurdum of the Enlightenment idea that all men are created equal—which may be true, but it fails to consider that not all cultures are created equal. Nevertheless, our "gentry Republican" class, as he terms it, has the same virtuous high from open borders as George Soros does. To the end, they join with leftists in viewing as America's ultimate goal a borderless world of equal people. All is not lost, though, for there are ways Americans can fight back—and the left, of course, has mapped how to do that, for it used these same techniques to drag America left after WWII. I was hoping that the video would record as a side-by-side chat, but Google Meet refused to cooperate. The next time I do a video, I'll have that bug worked out.

One of the left's most common rallying cries is that Republicans, from Trump on down, are fascist. That's a slur going back to the end of WWII and bears no relationship to reality. The world is divided between totalitarian and liberty-centric political ideologies. Fascism and the American left are on the totalitarian side, and American conservatives come squarely down on the side of liberty.

This is a single-issue program about the D.C. gossip claiming that tonight—Thursday—Donald Trump will announce that he has evidence that the 2020 election in Georgia was illegitimate, meaning that Senators Raphael Warnock and Jon Ossoff are never elected. There are several problems with that, especially the fact that neither of those Senators was elected in the November 2020 election, but the rumor raises larger questions about election integrity and the process when fraud taints a Congressional election.

This is a single-issue program. My topic is my "catch them being good" philosophy, which I used to raise my children. However, I've realized over the years that it can help us remake American society for the better.

Today I discuss just one subject: A crazy new recycling rule that may destroy a large part of California's dairy industry or, at the very least, make an essential nutrition source for children much more expensive.

In today's podcast: 0:00 Zohran Mamdani rewrites New York City's immigrant history 8:16 Ireland and the problem of mass Islamic immigration 11:25 The center cannot hold because there is no center

In today's podcast: 0:00 Has the post-MOU era created a Vance v. Rubio foreign policy schism? 8:32 The left's blind spot for Islam, which represents everything leftists purport to hate I read at length from four things: A June 24, 2026, American Thinker essay. A June 17, 2026, Will Ricciardella tweet. A July 8, 2026, Will Ricciardella tweet. A July 6, 2026, LGBTQNation news report.

In today's podcast: 0:00 Regarding Iran, was this Trump's plan all along? 4:20 The Democrats revisit the Biden play with Graham Platner 7:08 The Democrats' horrible crime against American blacks.

Today's video podcast tackles just one topic, which is the common thread that runs through raising children, training dogs, and dealing with Muslims on American soil who have dreams of caliphate glory.

Today's video podcast tackles the following topics: ·      0:00 Introduction ·      1:05 European inertia ·      9:52 Conservative Americans' malaise I almost kept to my upper limit of ten minutes, and hope to do better next time. You can also watch the video on Rumble.

Today's video podcast tackles four topics: One. The surprising nature of employees at major airports given the identity of most hijackers since the 1960s. Two. The non-stop leftist propaganda at Seattle Airport. Three. Our quisling institutions are part of why Trump signed the Iran MOU. Four. Apparently, the Holocaust will soon be a forbidden subject at schools for fear of offending...certain people. ·      0:00 Introduction ·      04:21 Airport Security ·      13:37 Seattle Airport indoctrination ·      18:28 Quisling institutions and the MOU ·      26:09 The forbidden Holocaust curriculum

Today's topics are: ·      0:00 Introduction ·      0:16 Islam's sado-sexual culture ·      10:52 How America is doing in Iran and China ·      21:47 The reasonable reason for halting redistricting in South Carolina ·      26:43 A society cannot be structured around damaged people First, I examine the dueling reports about the unspeakable crimes Arabs committed against Jews on October 11 and Nicholas Kristof's blood libel about raped Arabs in Israeli prisons. I'll explain exactly why the former reports are manifestly true and the latter obscenely false. Second, I look at how we're doing vis-à-vis Iran and China. Maybe I'm a cockeyed optimist, but I think all is well under Trump's management. Third, before people get their knickers in a twist about the fact that the South Carolina legislature is dragging its heels on redistricting, there's reasonable thinking going on there. Fourth, and last, based on people I know and know of, a reminder that a society cannot organize itself around its most damaged members, no matter how sad their lives are.

This one's a bit different, because it's relatively short (for me) and discusses only a single topic: Whether Europe can survive. I don't think it can, and I explain why.

·      0:00 Introduction ·      0:40 Trump on Iran is no fool, no matter what the media say ·      11:43 Trump hatred started with Reagan hatred ·      15:11 The left mutilates Passover ·      28:18 The View hosts' modern eugenics ·      35:49 Free speech is dying in the Anglosphere

Today's topics are (1) China isn't having a good year, whether at home or abroad (2) What's happening in Iran is both amazing and necessary (3) The Democrats' hatred for Trump is blinding them to both the truth and the incredible evil that the mullahs represent (4) There are morally decent Democrats, but they're incapable of seeing that the isolated problems they recognize are part of an inherently corrupt ideology (5) The Democrats are destroying young lives, with just one example highlighting what they've done

Today's topics are (1) how Trump took the necessary steps to improve his job approval in the lead-up to the midterms, (2) the reason tariffs won't cause economic collapse and why they're a wonderful and equitable way to raise revenue, (3) the real meaning behind "Prince" Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor's detention, (4) the truth about the world in which Gavin Newsom grew up, and (5) the fact that my dad was right all along (going back to the 1970s) about the collapse of American K-12 education. You can find the Scott Sultzer essay I recommended here: https://www.americanthinker.com/articles/2026/02/the_supreme_court_s_political_attack_masquerading_as_a_judicial_decision.html

Today's topics are the prince formerly known as Andrew, which is really more about Trump's prescience and the British government's cowardice than about Andrew himself; the woke, DEI-obsessed power behind the throne at trouble-plagued DC water, along with his own troubled history; America's scary generation of woke mad scientists show up for their biggest annual convention, and the lower House in the Netherlands' Parliament decides to jettison the country's wealth by chasing out the wealthy.

Today's topics are how the left is seeking to return us to an age when we no longer are Nature's master, but nature is our master, and a hard, cruel one at that; the completely unnecessary Silence of the Lambs apology; the unfriendly skies we're flying; the autism myth; and me smugly patting myself on the back for being right about a lot of things.

Today's topics are the real reason the NFL went with Bad Bunny, some thoughts about American football versus soccer, watching Rowan & Martin's Laugh-In, and knitting and the magic of AI.

Today's topics are (once again) our grossly dishonest media, the story of Obama's "fixer" and Jeffrey Epstein, the tragedy of blacks failing in Marin County's school district (and one local media's effort to hide that), Europe's continued downfall as it bows before Islam, and the Ivy League college scam.

Today's topics are Trump's brilliance in negotiating a trade deal with India, the reality of the hijab (and it shouldn't be celebrated), the bizarre priorities of Senate Republicans when it comes to the SAVE Act, and understanding leftist Jews.

Today's topics are (1) more examples of the "de-Judaization" of the Holocaust and the total inversion as a vehicle to attack Jews, and (2) the weird thing about Michelle Obama's answer when she was asked whether she'd urge Obama to run again if Trump goes for a third term.

Today's topics are the terrible consequences of electing communists, the leftist view of religious rights, the dangerous drift toward "de-Judaizing" the Holocaust, and pure schadenfreude when looking at leftist expectations about "Melania," the movie.

Today's topics are one doctor's testimony in the Senate reveals how ideologically corrupt medical education has become, an essay by Ireland's former president reveals more than she realizes when she rants against infant baptism, Scott Adams's death highlights (again) how utterly corrupt the media are (but change can happen), and the necessity for Trump to act in Iran.

Today, there's only one topic: Singapore. I spent 12 days there and have opinions (plus, if you're watching the video, photographs).

Today's topics are tariffs, and why Trump's tariffs are good, not bad; the divisions (perhaps good ones) that come from our siloed media world; and the reason that medical costs are so high and—sorry—will never go down.

Today's topics are why the shutdown's end was inevitable, why New York City doesn't matter anymore, the problem of rogue judges, a (good) cultural shift and the evidence supporting it, a bad shift in South Korea, the Palestinian "fatocide" (and why, inevitably, the absence of starvation genocide is the Jews' fault), and whether God serves man or man serves God.

This is a special edition of the American Thinker Takeaways podcast. I had the opportunity to interview Professor Charles Murray about his new book, Taking Religion Seriously, about his intellectual journey to faith.

Today's topics are a little insight into some of the people on food stamps and Governor Tim Walz's deeply dishonest accounting; Karine Jean Pierre's victim-centric mindset and the dirty little anti-democratic secret her interviewer gave away; and the serious problem with elected politicians who were not born in America and have roots in cultures utterly alien to our own.

Today's topics are scary ideas from Google's AI (and their intersection with the climate changista and environmentalist worldview), Europe's problematic African and Middle Eastern immigrants (and the coming purification), how one leftist member of the media defines "racism" to attack Timothy Mellon (we're all racists now), and the demise of Napoleon's Army.

Today's topics are what Obamacare has done to ERs, the drop in fuel prices, WaPo journalists who dare not speak “their” truth, what Google AI is alleged to have done to Robby Starbuck, and the fall of John Cleese, the avatar for all bad things from the “intellectual” left.

Today's topics are the leftist obsession with animal costumes (and what Biblical proscription I think it violates); the antisemitic madness in England and the general problem of unlimited, mostly Islamic, immigration to Europe, the Pope's obsession with immigrants over his own flock; and, lastly, Zohran Mandami's open embrace of the same pro-Islamic ideas that Barack Obama and his supporters are believed still to be hiding.

This episode looks at the peace plan in Gaza, Kamala Harris's ignorance (whether willful or natural), dhimmitude in America's prison system, the slaughter of Christians in Africa, the Blue state and city insurrection when it comes to illegal immigration, Jack Smith's serious misstatements about national security law, and the return to gender sanity.

Sizing up the proposed Trump peace plan to end the fighting between Israel and Hamas.

The West's neo-paganism is worse than the original.

In this, the last podcast of 2024, I consider my movement to “ReclaimTheRainbow” for everyone, not just the LGBTQ+ crowd; the Biden military's crazed focus on gender and climate change rather than national defense;* Islamified Europe; and the necessity of Biden's presidency, along with my hope for the New Year.   *This is the Naval War College video underlying my look at Biden's military: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kEBdWjN9V_E

A look at the eight factors that make American healthcare so expensive—and why socializing our medical care will not make things better.

This video-podcast covers why it was a good thing Biden was elected (yes, I really said that), how Biden corrupted the constitutional pardon power, the difference between conservative and leftist populism, and why I think that Trump is America's Churchill.

This video/podcast discusses the illegal long count in Pennsylvania, the exodus from X, the La Leche League's founder going out with a “transphobic” bang, the Antifa fan in the Secret Service, and how Britain is going pre-modern with Net Zero.

·      Jack Smith's apparent retreat from the DOJ lawsuits against Trump, a tactic that is actually as slimy as the lawsuits themselves ·      The FEMA worker who was fired for instructing people to ignore Trump supporters' homes, and the situation isn't as obvious as you think. ·      The pathetic nature of today's performers, which explains why it cost Kamala so much to bring them to her rallies (with a cameo from poor Britney Spears) ·      The overall cult-like nature of today's leftism ·      A horrible development for women and girls in Iraq, something I lay squarely at Obama's feet—along with a short rumination about how bad Democrats are for women generally ·      The New York Times's despicable anti-Israel animus ·      A mass murder in China and what it says about guns and government

American Thinker's managing editor, Andrea Widburg, talks about: An important point about Civil Rights that too few Democrats understand. How the election spelled the end of the pernicious intersectionality that has dominated Democrat politics since the Obama era. The leftist overreach that spelled the Democrats' doom. The Trump dividends that are already paying off in foreign policy, even though he hasn't even been inaugurated. The American people's verdict should mark (and seemingly already is marking) the end of the lawfare against Trump. Fear and loathing at the FBI's headquarters now that there's a new Trumpian sheriff in town. The jihad playing out in Amsterdam. Why Hollywood stars—and, maybe, some politicians—should are, or should be, running scared...or just running. The sad, funny story of the leftist who utterly fails to connect her political values to the frightening world that she inhabits.

This video/podcast discusses a leftist European writer's accurate—and depressing—take on the state of America under Harris and Biden, the fraud against Israel that's taking place on Wikipedia, and the wonderful New York Times article that's meant to dissuade people from supporting Trump but that reads like the perfect Trump campaign promotional material.

This video/podcast discusses the Harris campaign's and the Democrat party's inherent racism, the joke on the Democrats regarding Trump's upcoming Madison Square Garden rally (plus the usual defamation against Trump), Kamala Harris's transgender policies, and a lovely pro-Trump message from Stanley Kubrick's daughter.
