On Friday's Mark Levin Show, the Joe Kent narrative was tracked in real time by AI following his Tucker Carlson interview, revealing that the exact clip and caption featuring the quote about Israelis driving the Iran decision flooded hundreds of accounts simultaneously within minutes. This amplification involved Russian state TV (RT), Iranian state media through HispanTV, Hamas-aligned Quds News Network, Turkish state broadcaster TRT, Candace Owens, Marjorie Taylor Greene, and Max Blumenthal. Like the Marxists, the Fascists have a sophisticated and massive propaganda operation. Kent's military record does not shield him from accountability for alleged wrongdoing. He is under FBI investigation for leaking information, a serious matter that should not be dismissed simply by criticizing the FBI's past failures. Also, the House Oversight Committee is investigating nonprofit organization Creator Collective for potential violations of campaign finance disclosure rules through its Chorus program. This initiative pays Democratic-aligned political influencers up to $8,000 per month to promote party talking points on social media. The committee describes the activities as a "disturbing pattern" aimed at evading transparency requirements. Later, the Democrats have repeatedly blocked funding legislation for key federal agencies including the TSA, Coast Guard, Secret Service, and FEMA, resulting in a government shutdown that has left these workers unpaid and unable to cover mortgages or medical bills. Democrats refuse to support them; they prioritize benefits and amnesty for illegal immigrants over American citizens and essential security personnel, deliberately creating chaos at airports and elsewhere to gain political power. Afterward, the Save America Act is a straightforward measure to ensure honest elections by restricting voting to Americans only. No, it doesn't discriminates against Black people or married women - it prevents illegal voting practices such as non-citizens voting, double voting, voting in wrong locations, or voting using deceased people's names.

STREAMING THE MAKING OF THE JOHN BATCHELOR SHOW 3-20-20261868 PERSIAN GULFThis transcript from The John Bachelor Show features a dialogue between host John Bachelor, Jeff Bliss of Pacific Watch, and a commentator known as Germanicus. The discussion begins with an overview of California's current challenges, including record-breaking heatwaves and a controversial $100 million wildlife bridge in Agoura Hills that has faced significant budget overruns. The participants also examine the homelessness crisis in Los Angeles, specifically focusing on allegations of political fraud and the lack of financial accountability for state spending. Shifting to international affairs, the dialogue addresses rising global tensions involving Iran and the potential for infrastructure attacks that could destabilize energy markets. Finally, Germanicus provides a historical critique of modern American military strategy, arguing that the nation has traded versatile combat readiness for a reliance on expensive, "exquisite" weaponry.

An American expat in Oslo shares some of the quirks and customs of life in his adopted home. Then, a wilderness and history author recounts what he found exploring four blank spots on the US map. And an ethnobotanist describes the healing properties of different kinds of herbs around the world — some of which might be growing in your own backyard.

1. Kathy Hochul (New York Governor) – Economic Hypocrisy Hochul previously encouraged conservatives and wealthy job creators to leave New York. After large numbers of high‑income residents relocated, she now publicly urges wealthy individuals to return. This is hypocrisy—rejecting wealth creators ideologically while depending on them financially to sustain social programs. Left‑wing governance is hostile to success yet reliant on taxing it. 2. James Talarico (Texas Democratic Senate Candidate) – Religious & Cultural Contradictions Democrats selected Talarico to appeal to Christians because of his seminary background. His theological statements (e.g., describing God as “non‑binary”) are radical reinterpretations of Christianity. Additional Points: Supports abortion access for transgender individuals. Expresses discomfort with traditional symbols like the American flag and the Christian cross. Advocates reducing meat consumption and runs a vegan campaign in barbecue‑centric Texas. 3. Joe Kent (Former Trump Administration Official) – Foreign Policy Reversal Kent resigned in protest of U.S. military action against Iran, blaming Israeli influence. His past statements strongly supported aggressive action against Iran and praised Trump’s Iran policy. He later suggests (without evidence) that Israel may be threatening President Trump. Media reports suggest he may have leaked classified information. 4. Cesar Chavez (Labor Icon) – Moral Hypocrisy and Historical Revision Chavez has long been revered by the left as a civil‑rights and labor hero. A New York Times exposé alleges Chavez sexually abused minors over many years. The Left has: Allegedly concealed or ignored these accusations because Chavez aligned with their politics. Continued honoring him with statues, street names, and official recognition. Ideology was prioritized over justice and child protection. Please Hit Subscribe to this podcast Right Now.

Michael Wolff and Joanna Coles dive deep into the unraveling chaos inside Trumpworld as the Iran war exposes a full-blown MAGA civil war, with Tucker Carlson, Megyn Kelly and Nick Fuentes clashing against Ben Shapiro, Laura Loomer and Mark Levin in a bitter fight over Israel, antisemitism, and the future of the movement. Wolff reveals shocking behind-the-scenes insights into the conspiratorial currents driving Trump's base, the growing belief that shadowy forces are steering U.S. foreign policy and how figures like Jared Kushner are being recast in dark, dangerous narratives. As Trump stumbles through a conflict he never planned through, sidelining his own America First allies while embracing traditional hawks, the episode paints a portrait of a movement fracturing in real time—where ideology, opportunism, and resentment collide, and where the battle for control of MAGA may reshape American politics in ways few saw coming.

The U.S. is at war with the leading state sponsor of terror, and Donald Trump appointed Markwayne Mullin—a man with no counter-terrorism experience—to help defend the homeland. At the same time, Hegseth is a meathead, and the shoe designer at the top of the FBI is preoccupied with visiting all the places on his bucket list. This is the moment for Democrats to argue that Trump has made the country very vulnerable. Plus, the administration apparently did not consider worst case scenarios vis-à-vis Iran, the Iraq War planners look like pros in comparison, Denmark was seriously preparing for an American invasion of Greenland, and is Israel's conduct contributing to the growing antisemitism problem?David Frum joins Tim Miller for the weekend pod.show notes David's podcast David encouraging Dems to get to the right of Trump on the war Tim's playlist

From the White House to Iran's former crown prince, proponents of the U.S.–Israel war on Iran sell it to the American people — and Iranians themselves — as a crusade for liberation. Instead, the regime remains in place as the death toll grows, environmental hazards proliferate, and civilian infrastructure is decimated. As if the destruction inside Iran itself wasn't enough, the war is starting to have serious ramifications for the global economy and, more to the point, expanding into neighboring countries.Lebanon, in particular, has come into Israel's crosshairs, with increasing Israeli incursions and missile strikes deeper into the country. The number of dead there is approaching 1,000 with Israeli missiles razing entire apartment blocks in central Beirut this week and a ground invasion getting underway. More than 1 million Lebanese people have been displaced.“I think the Lebanese are suffering now, and there's not really anyone who's trying to save them,” says Afeef Nessouli, a Beirut-based journalist, speaking to The Intercept Briefing. “They know that, and they know that they're just political pawns who are always at the worst end of the stick along with Palestine.” He adds, “The fear is that [Israel] will occupy south of Litani [River] ... and just take people's homes, take their land, and never give it back, make settlements for their country.”“It's been really stunning to watch that so many people fall for this idea of ‘This is a human rights intervention' — and yet it's accomplished through massive human rights violations,” says Ali Gharib, a senior editor at The Intercept. Commenting on Israel's strategy of making failed states out of its adversaries in the region, he notes, the Israelis “don't need [Reza] Pahlavi to work. They don't need him to go in there and become this democratic leader. They just need him to lead a movement that damages the regime enough to put Iran into some kind of fractured state or state failure where it's not a threat to Israel anymore.”“We've had in the last 20 to 25 years, especially since the Iraq War in 2003, a lobby pushing for regime change in Iran,” says Sanam Naraghi-Anderlini, a veteran peace strategist. “The Iraq version of regime change ended up being a catastrophe from a U.S. perspective, but actually from an Israeli perspective and from a Saudi perspective, and even from a UAE perspective, the decimation of Iraq has been a success because if Iraq had turned out to be a liberal democracy, it would've challenged Israel on the question of Palestine. It would've challenged Saudi Arabia on the question of Islam and what is Islam.”It's a region in upheaval, and at the center are Israeli and American fictions about liberatory bombs.“I've been on podcasts with Israeli journalists where they're telling me the Iranians wanted us to go in and liberate them,” says Naraghi-Anderlini, “And my response to them is: Liberate their bodies from their souls?”Listen to the full conversation of The Intercept Briefing on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, YouTube, or wherever you listen.Keep our investigations free and fearless at theintercept.com/join.

Director of the Libertarian Institute Scott Horton offers his anti-interventionist perspective on America's involvement in the Iran War and the conflict in Ukraine—asking how the United States concludes the conflicts and whether the cost of American lives and treasure is worth the benefit.

Matthew Vernon Whalan joins the show to discuss Bullock: Chronicles of Deprivation and Despair in an American Prison, an interview-driven, investigative journalistic, and collectively narrated portrait of life inside Bullock Correctional Facility in Alabama. Through the words of incarcerated people themselves, we explore the everyday realities that rarely make it into public view: mental health crisis and predation, sewage and infrastructure collapse, cruel and unusual punishment, sleep deprivation, violence, drugs and overdose, and the informal social orders that take shape when official protection fails. This book is truly an act of witness -- and a demand that we look directly at what incarceration actually does to human beings. Once examined, we can see the U.S. prison system as a disturbing microcosm of the pathologies infecting and eating away at the broader American society.  Support Matthew and his work directly on Venmo @Matthew-Whalan-1 Get 15% off any book at Left Wing Books HERE Check out our previous episode with Project Hope t0 Abolish the Death Penalty HERE   ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Support Rev Left and get bonus episodes on Patreon Make a one-time donation to Rev Left at BuyMeACoffee.com/revleftradio Follow RLR on IG HERE Learn more about Rev Left HERE

Is Padma Lakshmi a model-turned-TV-star who's grown accustomed to the finer things? Or a down-to-earth mom who reuses takeout containers for her leftovers? Is she warm and hospitable, the kind of person who's excited to share her food with you? Or is she frank and snarky, the kind of person who compares her favorite dish to old bong water? Is she an Indian who grew up partly in America, or an American who grew up partly in India? Or is she all of the above? Dan sits down with cookbook author, food writer, and TV host Padma Lakshmi to talk about some of her earliest food memories from her grandmother's kitchen in India, her struggles to adjust to life in the US, and how she deals with the judgments people make about her body, and her brains.

Jimmy and Max Blumenthal eviscerate Tulsi Gabbard and JD Vance for their complete reversal on Iran war principles, in particular contrasting Gabbard's 2020 bill to prevent unauthorized war on Iran with her current groveling defense of Trump's illegal strikes. Max argues this is a "clarifying moment" exposing Gabbard as having zero influence and zero credibility, while her former second-in-command Joe Kent's resignation stands as a solitary act of conscience.  The two host also note that Marco Rubio's admission that the war was launched because "Israel was about to attack" destroyed any pretense of U.S. national interest, and that Gabbard and Vance have permanently decimated their political futures by becoming the very warmongers they once opposed. The segment concludes that Trump is controlled by "dark forces from Tel Aviv," that his administration officials fear him, and that only American casualties coming in to Dover Air Force Base are the only thing that will trigger real change. Plus segments on the Trump administrations threats to prosecute U.S. media outlets for treason over Iran war coverage, the surprising connection between Iranian revolutionaries and the U.S. black liberation movement, and Jimmy's conversation with Alex Jones about coming together across the political divide to prevent World War III. Also featuring Kurt Metzger and Stef Zamorano!

Trump doesn't have a Joe Kent problem, although his now former Director of Counter-terrorism wrote in a public letter that, in essence, Trump lied to the American people about Iran being an “imminent threat” to start the Iran War. No, he has a Tulsi Gabbard problem, as leaks come out of her National Intelligence office that she recommended against going to war with Iran, and predicted the exact oil blockade and strengthening of the Iranian regime that is on full display now. Popok looks at why Tulsi's Congressional Testimony this week about Iran is going to be a white-knuckle moment for Trump, as Tulsi, sidelined by Trump, gets her chance to have some political future after she leaves office by throwing Trump under the bus.

OA1245 - Federal prosecutors have just secured the first convictions in US history in which the Department of Justice has brought charges relating to associations with “Antifa,” an organization which demonstrably does not exist. We take a closer look at the plight of the eight defendants convicted on charges relating to a noise protest outside of an ICE detention center in Prarieland, Texas to break down the unusual legal basis for this case, understand how protesters were cast as terrorists, and what this all means for the future of American dissent. Then in better news, we take a closer look at the recent bar complaint against one of Trump's favorite lawyers (and our favorite MAGA characters) and AG Pam Bondi's efforts to claim that the feds can hold up similar investigations brought by state regulators. Matt explains why this proposed rule is not only obviously illegal but doomed to fail before providing some news you can use in today's footnote: the official OA guide on how to get away with a $100 million jewelry heist.

This week, the radical reality behind NYC Mayor Zohran Mamdani's inner circle and his agenda to financially gut the middle class. Before we even look at his insane proposed 50% "death tax" that will wipe out the generational wealth of everyday families leaving behind just $750,000 to fund bloated, hyper-woke city programs, we have to look at the company he keeps. We break down the disturbing anti-Semitism of his wife, who celebrated the October 7th terror attacks, and his father's extreme anti-Western rhetoric comparing Abraham Lincoln to Adolf Hitler. Then, Jillian tears into Joy Reid's delusional and vicious lie comparing American democracy to the brutal regime in Iran.  Finally, we head to the West Coast where Gavin Newsom's administration is officially crashing out under the weight of an epic $434 billion state fraud catastrophe exposed by Nick Shirley and Dr. Oz. California is hemorrhaging taxpayer money.  We dig deep into his wife's shady financial dealings - reportedly siphoning $3.7 million from her own transgender “charity” organization.  And finally, we expose Newsom's Chief of Staff, Dana Williamson, who is now facing 23 federal counts of fraud including wire fraud, bank fraud, and obstruction of justice.

In this episode of The President's Daily Brief: A potential shift from Europe and Japan on securing the Strait of Hormuz—but as allies stop short of specifics, U.S. air power, including A-10 Warthogs, is already striking Iranian assets to reopen the waterway. A bizarre and troubling turn in the cartel war, with a California-born figure now leading Mexico's most dangerous drug empire, complicating any effort to take him down. A new U.S. intelligence assessment is raising eyebrows, suggesting China may not be preparing to invade Taiwan—at least not on the timeline many had feared. And in today's Back of the Brief — a chilling reminder of the regime's brutality in Tehran, where a teenage champion wrestler is among those publicly executed as part of a widening crackdown on protesters.

Last year at the behest of Elon Musk, a group of young men in their 20s with no political experience set out to reduce federal spending by terminating lifesaving public health programs, slashing thousands of science and culture grants, and gutting entire federal agencies. The “DOGE Bros” wreaked havoc on American life — and somehow, reduced federal spending by nothing. Recently, two former DOGE employees were deposed amidst a lawsuit by organizations that want their money back. After spending days watching videos of their lengthy testimonies (that the government is actively trying to wipe from the internet), I've concluded that nobody benefits from identity politics quite like a mediocre white man.

 Welcome back to Straight White American Jesus. In this episode, Brad Onishi and co-host Dan Miller dig into the resignation of Joe Kent and the unraveling narrative around Iran. Kent's claim—that Iran posed no imminent nuclear threat—directly contradicts statements from figures like Mike Johnson and exposes what the hosts see as a familiar pattern: shifting justifications, vague timelines, and a disregard for expertise in favor of political loyalty. The conversation traces how dissent from within MAGA ranks—especially from someone like Kent—signals fractures in the movement, even as those critiques are quickly dismissed by Donald Trump. For Onishi and Miller, the deeper issue is a political culture where intelligence, experience, and even firsthand knowledge of war are subordinated to rhetoric, loyalty, and “feelings” about national security. The episode then widens its lens, connecting foreign policy to a broader “culture of death” that the hosts argue defines the current political moment. From Pete Hegseth's blunt justification that “it takes money to kill bad guys” to the rhetoric emerging from his religious circle—where his pastor Brooks Potteiger and podcast host Joshua Haymes discussed James Talarico in terms that included prayers for his death and suggestions he should be “stopped by any means necessary”—Onishi and Miller highlight a throughline of violence, dehumanization, and theological justification for harm. They argue that this kind of language—casting opponents as enemies of God or demonic threats—creates a moral framework where violence becomes not just acceptable but righteous. The result is a dangerous fusion of nationalism, militarism, and extremist theology, where political disagreement is reframed as spiritual warfare and the stakes are nothing less than life, death, and the future of American democracy.

Meet my friends, Clay Travis and Buck Sexton! If you love Verdict, the Clay Travis and Buck Sexton Show might also be in your audio wheelhouse. Politics, news analysis, and some pop culture and comedy thrown in too. Here’s a sample episode recapping four takeaways. Give the guys a listen and then follow and subscribe wherever you get your podcasts. A Fair Question to Ask About Iran President Donald Trump’s real‑time Oval Office remarks on the escalating U.S.–Iran conflict. Clay and Buck unpack Trump’s latest statements—including his clarification that he will not put U.S. “boots on the ground” in Iran—while noting his signature style of answering a question immediately after insisting he won’t. They highlight Trump’s comments about the Dow reaching 50,000 and his emphasis on keeping oil prices stable while managing U.S. strategy in the region. A central focus of Hour 1 is Trump’s response to Israel’s recent strike on part of Iran’s South Pars gas field. Trump said he was unaware the attack was coming but firmly warned Iran that any retaliation against Qatar’s LNG facilities would trigger overwhelming U.S. military action. Clay and Buck break down the significance of South Pars as one of the world’s most important natural gas sites and discuss how attacks on such infrastructure could destabilize global energy markets. They also track the rapid fluctuations in U.S. crude oil prices—swinging between $97 and $120 per barrel—as live updates emerge from the Oval Office. The conversation turns to the broader goals and consequences of the U.S.‑led campaign against Iran. Buck questions what the long‑term strategic objective really is, noting the massive cost of the operation and the complexity of Iran’s internal political structure, including militias like the Basij. Clay points out that predictions of an Iranian uprising have not materialized at the scale initially anticipated, even after the assassination of Iran’s leadership. Yet the White House maintains optimism: Trump and economic adviser Scott Bessent both claim that widespread military and government defections are underway, with Bessent asserting that the Iranian regime may collapse from within. Historical Perspective The hosts also examine U.S.–Israel strategic differences, comparing them to the historic disagreements between America and Britain during World War II. Clay and Buck discuss Israel’s more aggressive posture toward Iran, the threat Iran poses directly to Israel, and Trump's effort to prevent Israeli strikes that could destabilize global LNG supply. They consider whether Israel’s actions were coordinated with the U.S. or executed independently, and what that means for the joint campaign moving forward. From there, Hour 1 explores the scale of destruction inflicted on Iran’s military: its navy, air force, and anti‑aircraft capabilities have been “obliterated,” according to Trump. Clay and Buck analyze whether such overwhelming airpower—enabled by modern drone technology and real‑time intelligence—may represent a historic shift in U.S. military capability. They note how Russia is now supplying advanced drones and intelligence to Iran, making the speed of the U.S. offensive strategically crucial. Iran's Public Executions Iran just hung a 19-year-old wrestler for protesting the regime. Good and evil still exist in the world. Compare how the American and Australian media covered the 30,000 deaths in Iran during the protest uprising to how the deaths of Renee Good and Alex Pretti. Protecting the Homeland The TSA agents going one month without pay is ridiculous, not to mention making things far more dangerous. The government needs to get their act together and stop using citizens as pawns. FBI Director Kash Patel says the threat to the homeland is higher because of the DHS shutdown. You are waiting in long lines at the airport because of lunatic ICE protesters.

1. California Firearm Advertising Law Struck Down California agreed to a settlement exceeding $1.3 million in attorney fees after losing a lawsuit over its “marketing firearms to minors” law. The law effectively banned most firearm advertising, arguing it could appeal to minors. The lawsuit was brought by the Second Amendment Foundation, Firearms Policy Coalition, and other plaintiffs. Core Argument Presented The law violated the First Amendment by banning truthful, lawful advertising. It was also framed as an indirect attempt to undermine the Second Amendment by financially crippling gun stores. 2. Ninth Circuit Ruling and Judicial Reasoning A Ninth Circuit judge (Judge Lee, September 2023) ruled against the law. The opinion stated: The law did not materially advance California’s goal of reducing gun violence. There was no evidence minors had illegally purchased firearms due to advertising. The court highlighted a contradiction: California allows minors to use firearms legally (e.g., hunting, sport shooting), Yet banned advertising about those same lawful activities. 3. Governor Gavin Newsom Criticism Governor Newsom is portrayed as acting emotionally and irrationally, particularly over: A .22 caliber rifle designed for youth shooters. The text argues: Youth firearms are legally owned by parents, not children. Such firearms are common for hunting and training. The financial cost to taxpayers is emphasized as a political failure. 4. Broader National Implications The case is framed as a warning to other states: Similar laws will fail and result in costly defeats. The victory is presented as: A win for constitutional rights A success made possible only by organizations with “deep pockets” 5. Shift to Federal Politics: The SAVE Act The second half shifts focus to the U.S. Senate debate over the SAVE Act. The bill is framed as an election integrity measure. Core premise: “Only American citizens should decide American elections.” 6. President Trump’s Leadership Role Trump is portrayed as: Personally directing the strategy Pressuring Republicans to unify Making the bill a top priority The effort is described as deliberate and strategic, not symbolic. 7. Republican vs. Democrat Contrast Republicans: Unified On offense Advocating for voter ID and proof of citizenship Democrats: Described as unanimously opposed Framed as defending an “impossible” position The debate is positioned as a midterm election defining issue.

Michael Lester is a decorated U.S. Marine Corps combat pilot, cybersecurity educator, and author who has spent his career operating at the intersection of military power, technology, and national security. A graduate of the United States Naval Academy and a member of MENSA, Lester also holds a master's degree in Electrical Engineering from the Naval Postgraduate School and an MBA, giving him a rare blend of technical expertise and strategic insight. During his military career, Lester flew combat missions across Asia and the Middle East, witnessing firsthand the realities of modern warfare and U.S. foreign policy. After his operational service, he returned to Annapolis to teach electrical engineering and leadership at the U.S. Naval Academy, helping shape the next generation of naval officers. Today, Lester continues his work in national security and technology as an adjunct professor teaching graduate-level cybersecurity at St. Mary's University and Wake Forest University. He is also the founder of IronClad Family, a company focused on protecting families and individuals from digital threats, identity theft, and modern information warfare. Over the past two decades, Lester has conducted an extensive independent investigation into U.S. foreign policy after noticing a stark contrast between what he witnessed overseas and what was presented to the public at home. That research culminated in his book *We Are the Bad Guys: How the U.S. Wages War, Controls Economies, and Calls It Freedom*, a controversial examination of American military intervention, economic influence, and global power structures. With the launch of Operation Epic Fury on February 28, global tensions and strategic maneuvering have once again taken center stage, making Lester's analysis of geopolitical strategy and modern warfare more relevant than ever.

In this special episode of American Potential, host David From sits down with Fritz Klein, one of the nation's leading Abraham Lincoln portrayers, during America's 250th celebration in Springfield, Illinois. Through a unique and engaging conversation, “President Lincoln” reflects on his journey into public life, the challenges of leading during the Civil War, and the enduring principles of equality, self-governance, and unity that shaped America. Fritz Klein also shares how portraying Lincoln for nearly 50 years has influenced his own views on leadership, humility, and human nature. The discussion explores how Lincoln navigated deep national division, worked with people who disagreed with him, and remained committed to the founding ideals during one of the most difficult periods in American history. It also draws connections between Lincoln's time and today's political climate, highlighting lessons on civility, compromise, and preserving freedom. This episode brings history to life in a powerful way, reminding us that the challenges we face today are not new—and that the principles that guided Lincoln can still help guide us forward.

Your thyroid controls your energy, your metabolism, your testosterone, your mood, and your ability to think clearly. Most doctors are testing it wrong and treating it wrong, and this episode tells you exactly what to do instead. -Watch this episode on YouTube for the full video experience: https://www.youtube.com/@DaveAspreyBPR Host Dave Asprey sits down with McCall McPherson, a physician associate, TEDx speaker, and founder of Modern Thyroid Clinic, Modern Weight Loss, and the advocacy platform Thyroid Nation.

She treats patients nationwide via telemedicine and has become one of the most trusted voices in functional medicine thyroid care. Dave and McCall expose why standard TSH-only testing catches just 1 to 2 percent of actual thyroid variation, why the medication most doctors prescribe (Synthroid/levothyroxine) fails a massive percentage of patients, and why T3 is the active hormone that mainstream medicine has been trained to fear without good reason. They also get into how fluoride in tap water, bromine in American wheat, mold exposure, dairy, gluten, and oxalates directly suppress thyroid function and drive autoimmunity. If you want to optimize your metabolism, protect your mitochondria, support brain optimization, and stop leaving your longevity on the table, thyroid is the first domino. This is essential listening for anyone serious about biohacking, human performance, anti-aging, functional medicine, supplements, sleep optimization, and using smarter not harder strategies to take control of your biology. You'll Learn: Why testing TSH alone misses thyroid dysfunction in the vast majority of people What a full thyroid panel actually includes and the optimal ranges for T4, T3, and reverse T3 Why T4-only medications like Synthroid fail and what works better How low thyroid directly tanks testosterone and libido in both men and women The environmental triggers destroying your thyroid, including fluoride, bromine, mold, and inflammatory foods How Hashimoto's connects to broader autoimmune risk and what drives it into remission Why kids are being misdiagnosed with ADHD when the real issue is hypothyroidism The supplements and cofactors (selenium, zinc, magnesium, ashwagandha, tyrosine) that support thyroid activation How thyroid optimization connects to metabolism, dementia prevention, cardiovascular health, and economic outcomes When to use T3 only vs. a T3/T4 combination, and how to know if your dose is off Thank you to our sponsors!

First released in December 2013, this live RISK! episode from Philadelphia's First Person Arts pairs two storytellers with a lot to say about losing control and getting it back. Dawn Jewel Fraser's "Brasilado" follows a young American woman deep into an immersive year in Rio de Janeiro, learning Portuguese street by street from her chain-smoking instructor Marcy, until a late-night taxi ride home unravels spectacularly when Brazilian police find weed in her bag and mistake her for a drug trafficker. Then Katie Samson tells "The First Time Again," the story of rebuilding a romantic and sexual life after a sledding accident left her with a spinal cord injury at 20. Her homecoming weekend story is tender, funny, and genuinely triumphant. Two women, two very different roads back to freedom.

The idea that white people — and white men in particular — face discrimination has become something of an obsession on the American right. It's a view that my guest this week shares. Jeremy Carl was nominated to a State Department post by the Trump administration, which sparked a lot of controversy. Carl is the author of “The Unprotected Class,” in which he makes the case that white Americans are in danger of becoming “second-class citizens.”  I wanted to know what he thinks constitutes anti-white discrimination and whether focusing on it inevitably leads to white nationalism. After we taped this interview, Carl withdrew his nomination, acknowledging that he lacked enough support to be confirmed. 0:00 - Intro 01:59 - Jeremy Carl's trajectory and State Department Nomination 05:24 - The Civil Rights Act and rise of anti-white Discrimination 12:20 - The impact of immigration on white Americans 24:53 - The "radicalization" of D.E.I. 37:37 - Carl's provocative language and controversial tweets 51:06 - “White culture” vs. “civic nationalism” 01:01:00 - The fours pillars of “Americanness” (A full transcript of this episode is available on the Times website.)

In this episode, Tony sits down with Nicholas Daigle to explore a controversial theory that could reshape how we understand both Scripture and American history. What began as a study of Genesis 6 and the Nephilim quickly turns into a deep investigation into the Ozarks, where Nicholas uncovers newspaper reports, burial mounds, and strange archaeological patterns that suggest giants may have once lived in the region. He details the work of a 1930s pastor who unearthed unusual skeletons, mysterious cave burials, and artifacts that seemingly don't belong in the Midwest. The conversation follows Nicholas' journey as he connects ancient flood narratives, megalithic structures, and Native American mound sites into a single framework rooted in the biblical account. As the evidence builds, the question becomes harder to ignore, could the stories of giants in America be more than just legend?Please pray for Tony's wife, Lindsay, as she battles breast cancer.

Welcome back to Impact Theory with Tom Bilyeu. In today's episode, Tom sits down with Professor Jiang for a deep dive into the complex forces driving the current crisis in the Middle East—and the declining arc of global empires. Professor Jiang pulls back the curtain on the true motivations behind the war with Iran, challenging the official narratives and uncovering the hidden economic and geopolitical agendas at play. Together, Tom Bilyeu and Prof Jiang trace the historical strategies of global powers, from the maritime dominance of the British Empire to America's postwar baton-carrying, revealing how control over trade routes and reserve currencies has shaped the modern world. They examine America's military and financial maneuvers, the fragility of the petrodollar system, and how the fallout from the Ukraine war and U.S.-China trade tensions have created a perfect storm. Along the way, they break down the risks of escalation, the role of key players like Russia, Israel, and the GCC, and what's at stake for U.S. global dominance—and your everyday life. This episode is packed with big-picture insights and hard-hitting analysis that will challenge how you think about war, economics, and the future of the American empire.

In this episode, newly confirmed U.S. Drug Czar Sara Carter joins Lisa to discuss America’s escalating fight against fentanyl, cartel violence, and the global drug trade. Carter shares behind-the-scenes insight into her confirmation process and her current role leading the Office of National Drug Control Policy under President Trump. She details a coordinated “whole-of-government” strategy aimed at cutting off drug supply chains, dismantling cartel networks, and saving American lives. The conversation dives deep into the takedown of cartel leader El Mencho, revealing how U.S. and Mexican forces collaborated on one of the most significant operations against organized crime in recent years—and what it signals moving forward. Carter also breaks down: How fentanyl is entering the U.S. through borders, ports, and mail systems The role of China in supplying precursor chemicals Why cartel networks are becoming more sophisticated and dangerous The connection between drug trafficking, national security, and terrorism The reported drop in fentanyl flow and overdose deaths How the administration is targeting both supply AND demand She also delivers a passionate message about unity, urging Americans to come together across political lines to combat addiction and protect future generations.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

In 1977's Moscow, Americans Bea Grant and Twila Hasbeck learn their husbands have died during a secret mission in Soviet Russia. Determined to learn why, they convince the CIA station chief to let them return to the US embassy to complete their husbands' covert operation and uncover why it went wrong. Bea and Twila find themselves helping a young Russian leak secret Soviet technology. But they're drawn in deeper when Bea catches the eye of a ruthless KGB officer who's been gathering kompromat. Now they must complete their dangerous mission before the Russians figure out that American women can also work as spies. In Peacock's breezy, buddy spy thriller “Ponies,” Emilia Clarke and Haley Lu Richardson star as CIA widows who become operatives and find themselves in a high stakes game of international espionage. The unlikely pair try to balance romance, friendship, double-crosses, and a Cold War conspiracy in which the role of women is greatly underestimated. OUR SPOILER-FREE REVIEWS OF "PONIES" BEGIN IN THE FINAL 11 MINUTES OF THE EPISODE.

Jordan & Teyana Taylor at the Oscars White Rapper Jack Harlowe Mocked for Making an R&B Album Mayoral Forum in D.C. Goes Sideways Illinois Senate Race, Stratton Wins the Primary Secretary of War Hegseth Criticizes Media Coverage of the Iran War Not only did the “Secretary of War” criticize the media’s coverage of the Iran war–he offered his own rewrites of specific headlines, and said that he “can’t wait” for David Ellison to take over CNN. Billionaire David Ellison is close to Trump and recently acquired CNN (as part of the Warner Bros. Discovery deal). He is expected to make CNN’s coverage more conservative, just as he did with CBS. Meanwhile, Trump’s FCC Chair, Brendan Carr, has threatened to pull the licenses of TV broadcasters who are critical of the Iran war. Media suppression is part of Trump’s brand of heavy-handed American imperialism that has dropped even the pretense of following international law. After launching overt operations to topple regimes in Venezuela and Iran, he casually floated the idea of “taking” Cuba as well.
