The Human Equation with Joe Pangaro – The election of a democratic socialist mayor in New York City is not the end of the American system — far from it. But it is a reminder that the system is flexible enough to accommodate a wide range of ideologies. That flexibility is both its strength and its vulnerability. The rise of socialism in American politics should not be met with fear or hostility, but with...

2026 promises to be a year of peril and risk and the US attack on Venezuela is only just the beginning. Lingering conflicts in Ukraine, civil unrest in Iran and the US authoritarian turn combined with off the charts corruption of Trump regime makes the prospect of 2026 one to be treated with alarm. In this FRDH podcast, recorded as the news of the American operation in Venezuela to seize its president Nicolas Maduro broke. veteran geo-political risk analyst Michael Moran talks us through that event and other possible flash points that could convulse the world in 2026. Give us 55:55 to explain.

Captured Venezuelan President Nicolas Maduro and his wife will appear before a U.S. judge on Monday - their first court appearance in what will be a long legal battle. Meanwhile, Maduro's allies, now in control of Venezuela, say they will not bend to U-S pressure. Now, the Trump administration is making new, direct threats -- warning the regime to cooperate with American demands. Also: With the removal of Maduro, what happens now to Venezuela's oil reserves? Donald Trump says he wants U.S. oil companies to play a big role in their future. You'll hear what that could mean for Venezuela... and for Canada.And: A recent report by the Institute for Canadian Citizenship found that one in five immigrants leave Canada within 25 years of landing. It also found the ones that are most likely to leave are highly skilled people. We look at the causes, and what can be done to keep them here.Plus: Homes in Pimicikamak Cree Nation unsafe to live in, Responsibly disposing of holiday waste, The state of the film industry, and more.

Mount Rushmore is something of an American Rorschach test. Some look at the monument and see American patriotic ideals carved into a mountainside. Others see only the rank hypocrisy of American presidents blasted into an Indigenous sacred site. In A Biography of a Mountain: The Making and Meaning of Mount Rushmore, writer and journalist Matthew Davis explores the complexities, moral grey areas, and fascinating history of this most iconic American memorial. In detailing the mountain's pre-carving past, the genesis of the memorial, the life and times of its tumultuous sculptor, and the mountain's continued relevance to the present day, Davis explores the complex history of the mountain behind the faces. In doing so, he shows how even when a message is sculpted  sixty feet tall, there is nuance to be found in its history.

Welcome to the first episode of OUTRAGE CULTURE. The show where we delve into news, politics and culture, and answer the very important question: what are we outraged about today? Let's start off with the billions of dollars being stolen from American taxpayers...

After Dark with Hosts Rob & Andrew – After Dark highlights 2025 as a year of sweeping change under President Trump's return, marked by rapid executive action, border enforcement, economic revival, global conflict de-escalation, government reform, and cultural milestones. Supporters see decisive leadership restoring American strength, prosperity, and confidence at home and abroad while setting the stage for an even stronger 2026...

The Hidden Lightness with Jimmy Hinton – Adding to the economic tailwinds are sizable tax refunds reaching American households. While often dismissed as routine, refunds play a significant role in consumer behavior. Many families use them to pay down debt, invest, or make long-delayed purchases. Others channel that money into savings or entrepreneurial ventures. This infusion of cash...

The fabulous comedian David Cross, whose comedy decades ago first raised our eyebrow to lowest common denominator political American stupidity, has a great bit where he says “I would like to officially change and substitute 'casting spells and chanting' in place of 'thoughts and prayers'. Hilarious and even more American!This is not only wonderful and delightful because it draws attention to the fact that language itself is micro magic. When a likely fake Christian politician stands at a podium after a 2nd Amendment related tragedy and utters that eye roll worthy, tired, and empty phrase, “thoughts and prayers,” instead of passing very popular common sense policies to help reduce gun violence, what they are actually doing is a kind of spiritual bypassing substituted for spell-casting, though a spell so worn down, so emptied of intention, that it has become little more than background noise. The words drift out, ritualistically, to soothe and placate, but not to transform a culture into something better.These insight sub-episodes are mirrored on our primary YouTube channel which can be found at https://www.youtube.com/@NilesHeckman/videos

If Darwin's evolutionary theories couldn't kill America's faith in God, then what could? That's the message in Daniel K. William's new book, The Search for a Rational Faith. Americans, Williams argues, have always sought to combine scientific knowledge with Christian apologetics. From the Founding Puritans to John Adams, Harriet Beecher and Martin Luther King, Americans have clung to the idea that enlightenment doesn't undermine faith. That's why thoughtful people - or, at least, thoughtful Americans - believe in God. “Without religion as a moral constraint, any sort of moral anarchy would be theoretically possible. In the world of the atomic bomb, there had to be some form of transcendent thinking,” Williams argues. “Religion has not been simply an anti-liberal reactionary force, but actually has been central to the American story and to America's human rights project.”Keen On America is a reader-supported publication.

In September 2007, 20-year-old American college student Amanda Knox moved to Perugia, Italy to study abroad and experience life on her own. She settled into a stone villa with three other young women and quickly began building friendships with her new roommates, forming a particularly close bond with 21-year-old British exchange student Meredith Kercher. Just weeks later, on November 2, Amanda would find herself standing outside that same home as police and paramedics rushed inside. Not fluent in Italian, she didn't fully understand what was happening - only that Meredith had been found murdered in the villa they shared.  Despite having no clue what was going on, Amanda became the focus of the murder investigation within hours. And what followed would become one of the most controversial criminal cases of the modern era, marked by intense scrutiny, global media coverage, and sharply divided opinions about guilt, innocence, and how justice is pursued when the world is watching.

And like most things involving the president, the moves aren't without their critics — including some you might not normally expect pushback from. Trump's rapid response team highlighted the two vetoes: https://twitter.com/RapidResponse47/status/2006153283996381333?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw%7Ctwcamp%5Etweetembed%7Ctwterm%5E2006153283996381333%7Ctwgr%5E79e6ef2350ae826bc802e9e5d82d5c97bad630de%7Ctwcon%5Es1_c10&ref_url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.thegatewaypundit.com%2F2026%2F01%2Fpresident-trump-issues-first-vetoes-second-term%2F The “Miccosukee Reserved Area Amendments Act” is a bill aimed at expanding the land set aside for the Miccosukee Tribe inside Everglades National Park by officially including a section known as Osceola Camp. Trump had a couple of issues with this. The residential community in that area “was constructed in 1935, without authorization, in a low area that was raised with fill material,” Trump's explanation read. “None of the current structures in the Osceola Camp are over 50 years old, nor do they meet the other criteria to be considered for listing in the National Register of Historic Places,” Trump wrote to the House. He added that, “the Miccosukee Tribe has actively sought to obstruct reasonable immigration policies that the American people decisively voted for when I was elected.” That appears to be a direct reference to the tribe's publicized opposition — including a lawsuit against the Trump administration — to the “Alligator Alcatraz” detention center in Florida, as noted by The Associated Press. The “Finish the Arkansas Valley Conduit Act,” meanwhile, is a bill designed to make it easier for rural Colorado communities to complete a long‑planned water pipeline project that will facilitate drinking water to people in the Arkansas River Valley. Trump appeared to take specific issue with the price tag and repayment plans for this project. “It was originally authorized … in a bill signed by President Kennedy in 1962,” Trump said. “For decades it was unbuilt, largely because the AVC was economically unviable.” “More than $249 million has already been spent on the AVC, and total costs are estimated to be $1.3 billion,” Trump wrote. “H.R. 131 would continue the failed policies of the past by forcing Federal taxpayers to bear even more of the massive costs of a local water project — a local water project that, as initially conceived, was supposed to be paid for by the localities using it. “Enough is enough. My administration is committed to preventing American taxpayers from funding expensive and unreliable policies.

On Lexington Avenue sits a special food store named Kalustyan's with a second floor stocked with international spices, syrups, and bitters. In 1881, this was the home of Chester A. Arthur, and it was here in the early morning hours of September 20, that he became the 21st President of the United States.He is one of only two men inaugurated as president in New York City -- the other was George Washington. And Arthur was certainly no Washington!Fans of the Netflix series Death By Lightning have already been introduced to Arthur's rugged, street-toughened personality, an efficient operator of Republican politics in a city governed by Democrats and Tammany Hall. He was quite famous, in fact, for converting Tammany men to Republican voters by using similar bare-knuckle tactics.He eventually became the Collector of the Port of New York, one of the most lucrative jobs in American government. And then, through a strange series of events, he was catapulted onto the national ticket for president as the running mate of James Garfield.But nobody really wanted the New Yorker for president, did they?This is a story not only of a man out of his depth, but of the two very different individuals who helped hone his reputation -- the New York power broker Roscoe Conkling, and the Upper East Side recluse Julia Sand, who may have helped guide Arthur through the most challenging moments of his 'accidental' presidency.PLUS: How Madison Square Park has become one of the only true monuments to his legacy.This episode was produced and edited by Kieran Gannon.

LEND-LEASE AND BRITISH PROPAGANDA Colleague H.W. Brands. H.W. Brands explains the passage of the Lend-Lease Act (HR 1776), which effectively ended American neutrality by committing industrial resources to Britain. The segment reveals the covert British propaganda campaign led by William Stephenson to manipulate US opinion. Brands also describes how FDR utilized a likely forged map of a German-partitioned South America to frighten Americans, while Lindbergh argued that aiding Britain was supporting imperialism rather than democracy. NUMBER 5

LINDBERGH'S TRANSITION TO PUBLIC ANTI-INTERVENTIONIST Colleague H.W. Brands. H.W. Brandsdetails Lindbergh's transition into a public anti-interventionist figure. Motivated by his father's persecution during WWIand a desire to avoid another European quagmire, Lindbergh utilizes his celebrity to broadcast isolationist views on the radio. Brands notes that while British officials dismissed Lindbergh as a political "schoolboy," the aviator argued that American interests differed distinctively from the British Empire's survival, and that the US should not bail them out. NUMBER 2

LINDBERGH'S 1939 RETURN AND FDR'S FAILED RECRUITMENT Colleague H.W. Brands. H.W. Brandsdiscusses Charles Lindbergh's 1939 return to America amidst rising European tensions. Lindbergh, world-famous for his 1927 transatlantic flight and the tragic kidnapping of his son, is greeted by paparazzi and invited to meet FDR. Brands explains that while Roosevelt found Lindbergh charming, the President unsuccessfully attempted to recruit the aviator into his administration to control his potential opposition to American intervention in the looming war. NUMBER 1

THE EROSION OF NEUTRALITY AFTER POLAND AND FRANCE Colleague H.W. Brands. H.W. Brandsoutlines the erosion of neutrality following the fall of Poland and France. Roosevelt maneuvers to adjust neutrality laws and aids Britain via the destroyers-for-bases deal, despite isolationist skepticism. Lindbergh and his allies fear these steps are a trap leading to inevitable war. Meanwhile, Churchill's correspondence with FDR becomes increasingly manipulative, desperate to secure American support against Germany, while Lindbergh warns that the British are seeking a US bailout.

The Puritans and the early colonists found more monsters in America than just witches. The Devil had birthed a variety of what were often called “monstrous births” and they became signs and omens for the believers in an angry god. Spectral, shape-shifting dogs, along with demonic, giant black bears, haunted the woods around the settlements. They believed they were surrounded by evil spirits in the sea, the rivers, lakes, forests, and swamps around them. But the Puritans were not the only ones finding monsters on the American frontier. Sea serpents swam in our waters and strange beasts populated the wilderness that loomed over most new American settlements. But the response to the beasts the settlers met were not always the same and didn't always share the Puritan desire to destroy all monsters or cleanse the American landscape – no matter how devilish the monsters might be. Instead, they turned them into legends.Our Sponsors:* Check out Shopify: https://shopify.com/hauntings* Check out TruDiagnostic and use my code HAUNTINGS for a great deal: https://www.trudiagnostic.comSupport this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/american-hauntings-podcast/donationsAdvertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy

In this hard-hitting special series on Joe Oltmann Untamed, host Joe Oltmann teams up with military analyst “B” to rip the veil off the coordinated radical networks infiltrating American cities, politics, and youth culture. It all starts with Zohran Mamdani's rapid rise—far from grassroots politics. A leaked video from one of his aides exposes the Democratic Socialists of America (DSA) Steering Committee's calculated playbook, linked to Alicia T. Signham and a sprawling web that includes ANTIFA, the Party for Socialism and Liberation (PSL), the Muslim Democratic Club of New York, and INCA for Social Justice. With “B” mapping out the connections, we trace Linda Sarsour's direct pipeline from the DSA straight to Mamdani, showing how these groups hide behind “social justice” rhetoric to push a subversive, anti-American agenda. The videos and documents don't lie, this is deliberate, organized infiltration.Building on that explosive foundation, the series exposes the hidden threads tying it all together. Linda Sarsour stands out as the central bridge, her deep ties to ANTIFA and radical activism laid bare in a game-changing video played at the perfect moment. The swamp stench is overwhelming: coordinated efforts to inject anti-American ideologies into local politics while mainstream media stays silent or complicit. These aren't lone wolves, they're part of a deliberate network exploiting progressive cover to embed radicalism in our communities. Joe and “B” make it crystal clear: the threat is real, it's accelerating, and it's unfolding right in front of us.In the third episode, we go straight for the jugular. “B,” our military analyst, walks us through the speakers of the Islamic Circle of North America (ICNA) , the group that poses as a harmless charity but operates as the primary pipeline for dangerous voices inside the United States. Coming on the heels of a massive pro-jihad rally in Pakistan involving Hamas, Jamaat-e-Islami, and Lashkar-e-Taiba (with clear U.S. connections), we spotlight ICNA's own chosen platform guests: convicted Pakistani spy Syed Ghulam Nabi Fai, banned extremist scholar Tariq Ramadan, Jamaat-e-Islami insider Dr. Nakibur Rahman, and Linda Sarsour herself. Every guilty plea, banned-from-America ruling, and damning document flashes on screen. The conclusion is that ICNA isn't a charity, it's the command center for jihadist influence in American communities. The series presses on, and the truth keeps getting louder.Check the Map Out Here: https://graphcommons.com/graphs/c72e75e7-6b90-41bd-b059-cd59f1ea0bac Please check out Joe's Givesendgo at: https://www.givesendgo.com/JoeOltmann     https://untamednation.com/ Make sure to check out https://honorboundusa.com  for all your Untamed Nation merch needs!Go to honorboundusa.com to get FREE TINA stickers and use Promo Code “FREETINA” for 20% off!Go to https://DCFguns.com and use Promo Code UNTAMEDNATION for 5% OFF Byrna ProductsProtect your family from hackers by going to https://sns.pidoxa.com NOW

This week on Sinica, recorded at Yale University, I speak with Michael Brenes and Van Jackson, coauthors of The Rivalry Peril: How Great-Power Competition Threatens Peace and Weakens Democracy. Their argument is that framing the U.S.-China relationship as geopolitical rivalry has become more than just a foreign policy orientation — it's a domestic political project that reshapes budgets, norms, and coalitions in ways that actively harm American democracy and the American people. Rivalry narrows political possibility, makes dissent suspect, encourages neo-McCarthyism (the China Initiative, profiling of Chinese Americans), produces anti-AAPI hate, and redirects public investment away from social welfare and into defense spending through what they call "national security Keynesianism."Mike is interim director of the Brady Johnson Program in Grand Strategy at Yale, while Van is a senior lecturer in international relations at Victoria University of Wellington and host of the Un-Diplomatic Podcast. We discuss the genesis of their collaboration during the Biden administration, how they navigate China as a puzzle for the American left, canonical misrememberings of the Cold War that distort current China policy, the security dilemma feedback loop between Washington and Beijing, why defense-heavy stimulus is terrible at job creation, how rivalry politics weakens democracy, recent polling showing a shift toward engagement, and their vision for a "geopolitics of peace" anchored in Sino-U.S. détente 2.0.5:47 – The genesis of the book: recognizing Biden's Cold War liberalism 11:26 – How they approached writing together from different disciplinary homes 13:20 – Navigating China as a puzzle for the American left21:39 – How great power competition hardened from analytical framework into ideology 28:15 – Mike on two canonical misrememberings of the Cold War 33:18 – Van on the security dilemma and the nuclear feedback loop 39:55 – National security Keynesianism: why defense spending is bad at job creation 44:38 – How rivalry politics weakens democracy and securitizes dissent 48:09 – Building durable coalitions for restraint-oriented statecraft 51:27 – Has the post-COVID moral panic actually abated? 53:27 – The master narrative we need: a geopolitics of peace 55:29 – Associative balancing: achieving equilibrium through accommodation, not armsRecommendations:Van: The Long Twentieth Century by Giovanni Arrighi Mike: The World of the Cold War: 1945-1991 by Vladislav Zubok Kaiser: Pluribus (Apple TV series by Vince Gilligan)See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

In this episode historian Doug Brinkley discusses the unprecedented ways in which Donald Trump has pushed the boundaries of presidential power. Brinkley compares Trump's actions to historic moments, such as FDR's attempts to pack the Supreme Court and Lincoln's leadership during the Civil War, but notes that Trump's use of executive orders and his ability to intimidate fellow Republicans is unparalleled. The episode covers Trump's potential to weaponize the National Guard for political gains, his circumvention of legal authority, and the broader implications for American democracy. Brinkley expresses optimism for the future but warns of the challenges posed by emerging technologies such as AI and deep fakes.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

He is a filmmaker and director, most recently coming out with Brilliant Disguise. Brilliant Disguise tells the unique story of a group of inspired Western spiritual seekers from the 60s, who in meeting the great American teacher, Ram Dass, followed him to India to meet his Guru, Neem Karoli Baba, familiarly known as Maharaj-ji. Two days before he left his body, Maharaj-ji instructed K.C. Tewari to take care of the Westerners, which he did resolutely until the day he died in 1997. Silver's #1 charting MGM/UA/Warners film, “The Compleat Beatles” is the critically acclaimed biopic movie about history's most famous band. The term ‘rockumentary' was first applied to this two-hour movie. Rolling Stone recently described the film as a “masterwork.” Silver's Warner Brothers' feature film, “No Nukes” also started the whole trend of music/activism feature documentaries. “Urgyen and his sons and all Dzogchen people believe that dreaming is as important as meditating. Dreams are fluid, anything can happen in a dream. You can fly, you can walk through a wall. What Mingyur says is that is the perfect analogy for life itself; life is as fluid and as transparent as that dream, but we don't know it because we think it's solid because we can't put our finger through our hand.” –David SilverSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

In the early nineteenth century, a stretch of upstate New York became one of the most spiritually charged regions in American history. Known as the Burned Over District, this frontier landscape was shaped by relentless revivals, bold preachers, and a growing belief that individuals could choose salvation and reshape society. In this episode of the History of the Papacy Podcast, Steve Guerra is joined by historian John Fagant of the Buffalo Presidential Center (https://www.buffalopresidentialcenter.org) to explore how the Second Great Awakening transformed western New York into a proving ground for religious innovation. At the center of the story is Charles Grandison Finney, whose revival campaigns challenged older ideas of predestination and emphasized free will, moral responsibility, and action. The conversation traces how revival culture spilled beyond churches into abolitionism, women’s rights, education reform, and other movements that continue to shape American public life. What began as a regional religious phenomenon became a national turning point in how Americans understood faith, authority, and reform. #HistoryOfThePapacy #BurnedOverDistrict #SecondGreatAwakening #AmericanReligiousHistory #ChurchHistory #BuffaloHistory #UpstateNewYork #ReligiousReform Support the show:Buy me a coffee! https://buymeacoffee.com/historyofthepapacyPatreon: http://patreon.com/historyofthepapacyBuy me a book: http://bit.ly/40ckJ8EHave questions, comments or feedback?

We wrap up 2025 the only way real farmers can, by telling the truth about what worked, what didn't, and what it actually took to survive another year in agriculture. In this episode of Talk Dirt To Me, Logan Hanks and Bobby Lee Hanks go back through the goals we set at the beginning of 2025 and give a brutally honest breakdown of whether we hit them or missed them. From hay production to cattle performance, equipment costs, and what it really takes to keep a farm moving forward, nothing is sugar-coated. From there, we roll straight into our 2026 game plan. We talk about increasing hay output, tightening up cattle health and death loss, cutting waste and equipment expenses, and continuing to scale up production of our homemade sauerkraut at the farm store. These aren't just goals on paper. They're the moves that decide whether a family farm grows or disappears. Toward the end of the episode, Bobby Lee also weighs in on the recent Tucker Carlson interview about veterinary medicine, pulling back the curtain on what the public doesn't see and what those conversations get right and wrong about the realities of animal health, regulations, and modern livestock care. We also highlight this week's Made in USA product, the Scrusher Boot Brush, a simple but essential tool for anyone who lives in mud, manure, and real work.

Thom Hartmann is the nation's #1 progressive talk radio host and a New York Times bestselling author. His new book is The Last American President: A Broken Man, a Corrupt Party, and a World on the Brink. Hartmann reflects on the first year of Trump 2.0 and the destruction and chaos it has unleashed on American democracy, society, and the world. Yet he insists that despair and surrender are not options as we enter 2026. Drawing on history and the cycles of great social change, Hartmann points to signs of a growing people's movement pushing back against Trumpism, as more Americans wake up to the damage inflicted by the oligarchs, gangster capitalism, and other anti-democratic forces. Ultimately, he believes the American people will prevail and push toward a real social democracy modeled on President Franklin Roosevelt's FAIR Deal. On this special New Year's episode, Chauncey DeVega reflects on how we must keep riding the wave out of the great troubles of 2025 — balancing pessimism and optimism, fear and hope. He urges us not to pretend everything is fine or suppress anger and grief, but to acknowledge those feelings and ask the essential question: "Okay — now what are you going to do?" in 2026. And for those fortunate enough to have had a good year amid so much collective pain, Chauncey emphasizes the obligation to share that energy and to uplift others. By learning from the long Black Freedom Struggle and other pro-democracy movements, the American people can better navigate what promises to be a perilous year ahead. In that spirit, Chauncey shares an essay on the tradition of Watch Night, when enslaved and free African Americans — often in secret and at great risk — gathered on New Year's Eve to count down the minutes until the Emancipation Proclamation took effect on January 1, 1863.

It's becoming almost a tradition that when I need to talk about something really difficult, I invite David Gate on the Podcast. David is a former worship leader, recording artist turned author who has a keen eye about what is happening in the world. And he's not afraid to tell it like it is. David wrote an article recently called “The Soundtrack For American Fascism is Worship Music” – I know, pretty intense. But also not entirely hard to believe, if you're paying attention. In this conversation we talk about it – how worship music can be co-opted to serve anti-Christian political agendas. How easy it is for our Christianity to become enmeshed with our politics to the point where we can't tell where one begins and the other ends. We look historically at how Hitler co-opted the music of Wagner to serve his political aims. How worship music can be manipulative in healthy and unhealthy ways. We talk about choosing songs and what to do if you're tired of mainstream, popular worship music. The conversation ends with some music recommendations and thoughts on David's creative process. This is a difficult chat, but a great one. You'll be uncomfortable frequently. You may disagree some. But I guarantee it will challenge your thinking and improve your ministry life if you allow it. This is David Santistevan. You can email me any time at David@beyondsundayworship.com. As always, thanks for listening.

You can organize your ministries and keep everyone on your team communicating and aligned around what's going on. As a worship leader, good communication is key to building a strong worship team. You can cultivate relationships while ensuring everyone has what they need to successfully prep for your services. But why not take it up a notch using the chat feature? Built right into the Services mobile app—which, by the way, you should totally download if you haven't already—chat helps you coordinate all the service details with your team. Plus, you can have fun while doing it! No more juggling emails, group texts, and multiple apps to ensure your whole team is aligned. Chat will simplify your communication in one convenient place through the Services mobile app. And everyone can ask questions, request prayer, or join the banter in real-time with one another. The really cool part about chatting with your teams? Team members are dynamically added or removed from conversations as availability changes! So if your original bass player suddenly declines (why is it so hard to find a bass player, anyway?), your newly scheduled bass player is automatically added to the chat conversation. All of your chat conversations stay in sync. No more outdated group threads or irrelevant messages! So what are you waiting for? Download the Services app and start chatting!

As I've long noted, America—indeed, the entire first-world—is engaged in an existential war for survival.  The key weapon being used against us is biological and cultural in nature—to drown our high-IQ, high-trust, low-fraud, first-world cultures under hundreds of millions and billions of low-IQ, low-trust, high-fraud, third-world cultures. To conceal the nature of this biological and cultural warfare we are being propagandized to believe a profound lie—that all peoples across the globe are essentially identical and interchangeable widgets, that any Indian or Pakistani or Africa or Aboriginal can be plugged into a first-world nation in place of an American or Brit of German, and the recipient nation will be as innovative and productive and cohesive as if the swap had never occurred. 

The great and powerful President Donald J. Trump has ordered ramped efforts to denaturalize paperwork US “Citizens” who may have committed fraud in securing their American citizenship.The path to naturalized US citizen is a long one, with many steps in the process—and millions of third-world migrants who have progressed to naturalized citizenship come from cultures in which guilty-free fraud is not only accepted but considered a normal social function.Millions of these people are US citizens only in the most superficial and technical sense, are not and never will be assimilated cultural Americans, and maintain their sole cultural affinity to their nation and culture of birth.Every one of them needs to be returned home, along with their families. America for genuine cultural Americans!
