Trump on the edge of an Iran deal? Insiders say the red lines are real; White House draws the line: no weak deal with Iran. But why the need to drag it out if red lines are non-negotiable? And how soon will gas prices go down? Trump on your cash? Treasury ready for $250 bill mania. Who and what will make it happen? And is this a good idea? Newsom’s weaponization fund promise ignites massive backlash; How illegal is his plan and how many other Democrat States are involved? James Talifreako leans into the controversy—smart politics or disaster? He doubles down on his craziest comments setting the stage for a Paxton win. Meanwhile the RINO purge expands. Who’s next to be primaried out?

Comey goes defiant! Comey posted a defiant video challenging Trump’s DOJ to “bring it”. What was Trump’s response? Should the DOJ have brought even more charges? And what should the GOP be doing to stop the violent rhetoric from the left? Hegseth goes off: “who are you rooting for?” Dems under fire? Hegseth was dragged before congress to be flogged over Iran war, but it was the Dems on the defense. SCOTUS delivers death blow to a key Democrat election strategy. Dems can’t win on their agenda or track record so they rig the system. How did SCOTUS make the playing field fair? Fauci covid crony indicted! Is he next? Morens was indicted on conspiracy against the United States and he was Fauci’s right hand. Is Fauci next? What about that pardon?

The Declaration of Independence created a new nation, and has guided the United States ever since.  Historian Steven Sarson argues in his new book, The Course of Human Events:  The Declaration of Independence and the Historical Origins of the United States that the Declaration looks backward, to British history and Biblical and Classical history, as much as forward.  Sarson looks at the structure of the Declaration's arguments, about “the Laws of Nature and of Nature's God,” and the story of the colonists' “Immigration and Settlement” in the New World to show how the Declaration's authors rooted its argument in their understanding of the world drawn from their knowledge of history.  The indictment of the British government's attempts to constrain them is also rooted in historical understanding of governance, and from this Americans would frame new governments, organizing them to preserve their lives, liberties, and pursuits of happiness.  Steve Sarson, a Professor of American Civilization at Jean Mouline University in Lyon, France, looks at the Declaration with fresh eyes, as he has been teaching it to French students curious about its meaning both to our world, and the world of its writers.  The ideas of the 18th-century, drawn from history, continue to inform our world, and Sarson shows how rooted they were in history as its authors understood it.  Tell us what you think!

Trump and department of war pull off a harrowing and amazing rescue of downed af pilots behind enemy lines. Andrea has all the incredible details. And who tipped off Iran through the media putting a missing pilot in the crosshairs? Trump vows justice. SCOTUS shocker! High court hands Steve Bannon a massive win! But what is missing in their ruling? What does it mean for MAGA? Arkansas decision sparks a firestorm! A shariah community gets approved. What are in the community laws? How do the Quran-based rules conflict with the Constitution and how can it be stopped? : With Guests Tom Del Beccaro, Author, “The Lessons of the American Civilization” and Brian Maloney, Red Wave AmericaSupport Our Mission: https://www.paypal.com/donate/?hosted_button_id=ZMGRBFGDJKRS8See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Betty Boyd Caroli's biography of Mary Kingsbury Simkhovitch is the first full-length work on a seminal figure in the settlement house movement, which spearheaded efforts to improve the life of immigrants and to counter urban squalor in cities around America in the early 19th century. Greenwich House, the community center Simkhovitch founded in 1902 in Greenwich Village, then a destination point for new immigrants to New York, quickly gained a reputation equal to that of Jane Addams's Hull House in Chicago, providing services in health, recreation, education, and the arts (which Greenwich House continues to do to this day). Simkhovitch became a tireless advocate of public housing and has been called by some "the mother of public housing." She played a central role in designing and administering the first public housing projects in America during the New Deal, in which she was an integral figure. The National Housing Conference, which she founded in 1931, continues to operate in our current "housing crisis" as among the most prominent advocates for safe, affordable housing. She co-wrote the National House Act of 1937, the first piece of legislation to establish the federal government's responsibility to help provide low-income families with housing. A Slumless America: Mary K. Simkhovitch and the Dream of Affordable Housing (Oxford University Press, 2026) by Caroli, best-known for her work on presidential First Ladies, which has gone through multiple editions, will become the standard account of a truly remarkable life. Born in New England and educated in Boston and at the University of Berlin, Simkhovitch married a Russian intellectual seven years her junior who spoke no English and had no job prospects. Raising a family while working for her rapidly expanding set of causes, Simkhovitch was portrayed in a DC Comics series (also featuring Diana Prince) in the early 1940s as a "Wonder Woman of History" for her seeming ability to do it all: take on the full spectrum of urban ills while also raising and supporting her family. Her husband eventually joined the Columbia faculty and became a noted art collector, advising collectors such as J. P. Morgan, while she exposed the squalor of Downtown slums. The stress of trying to do it all took a heavy toll on Simkhovitch, but her lifelong, passionate advocacy of and contributions to housing reform continued unabated and remains both inspiring and relevant. Betty Boyd Caroli is a graduate of Oberlin College and holds an MA in Mass Communication from Annenberg School of University of Pennsylvania, as well as a Ph.D. in American Civilization from New York University. She studied at the Università Per Stranieri in Perugia, Italy, and the Salzburg Seminar in Austria. A Fulbright in Italy led her to teach at the British College in Palermo, the English School in Rome, and two branches of City University of New York (Queens College and Kingsborough Community College).

Lots of work to do—lets get to it—Here are 3 big things for this hour—   Number One— A former mega- Democrat donor and billionaire—has dumped the left and is now giving his full throated support to President Trump and begging for the National Guard to be sent to San Francisco—   Number Two— Dominion Voting systems have been sold—you know the voting machines used in 27 states—to a MAGA millionaire—who supports paper ballots! Listen to the Democrats howl about this one!   Number Three— The liberal white woman is the real threat to American civilization today– Are you shocked to hear that? Well its true, and I can prove it.

Dr. Bruce Beehler is an ornithologist and Research Associate in the Bird Division of the Smithsonian Institution's National Museum of Natural History. Bruce's research is focused on the birds of the boreal conifer forests of the U.S. and Canada. He is interested in understanding how the permanent resident birds survive in these forests year round. Bruce spends much of his free time outside and immersed in nature. He enjoys playing tennis, going for hikes, and kayaking, as well as watching wildlife at the feeders outside his home.

When will all the craziness be over?  It's the question that seems to be on every American's mind, and one that many have asked both Russell Moore and George Packer, author and staff writer at The Atlantic. Moore and Packer discuss the exhaustion and rage that have become common in our politics. They discuss partisanship, profitability, and pessimism. They talk about the historical events that have led to our current realities, the effects of secularization on culture, and what it might take for Packer to believe there is a God—and why Packer still, despite all of the chaos, can't forgo his hope for humanity. Resources mentioned in this episode or recommended by the guest include: George Packer "What Will Become of American Civilization?

I've talked with journalist and best-selling author, GEORGE PACKER, about 2013's National Book Award-winning The UNWINDING and 2021's LAST BEST HOPE, in which he offers four narratives of America that motivate and divide us. Today our jumping off point will be his current cover story in The Atlantic on Phoenix, Arizona, WHAT WILL BECOME OF AMERICAN CIVILIZATION? Conspiracism and Hyper-partisanship in the Nation's Fastest-growing City. More tour guide than pundit, George chooses the characters and makes the introductions, but the voices in this piece are those of the people of Phoenix.
