It is always a special treat to reconnect with the founder of The Dollar Vigilante and Anarchapulco, Jeff Berwick. In the six years since we released The Controlled Demolition of the American Empire, most of what we predicted has come to pass in some form or fashion, not that we take any pleasure in it. Living a healthy life has become essential in today's polluted modern world, and new ideas are coming to light about how to improve our health in nontraditional ways. Can a TZLA machine really be the answer to some of the many medical issues faced by humanity? It already is, and many people are experiencing the healing benefits right now.Jeff Berwick: The Dollar Vigilante: https://dollarvigilante.com/Liberpulco: www.Liberpulco.com---Macroaggressionswww.Macroaggressions.ioMerch StoreLink Tree Video ChannelsRumble | YouTube | BrighteonActivist PostNewsletter Sign UpAudiobooksHypocrazyThe Octopus of Global ControlSupport Our SponsorsReplace Your Mortgage: www.WipeOutYourMortgageNow.comGround Luxe Grounding MatsC60 Power | Promo Code: MACROChemical Free Body | Promo Code: MACROWise Wolf Gold & SilverLegalShield: www.DontGetPushedAround.comChristian Yordanov's Health ProgramThe Dollar Vigilante

This week we continue our series on republicanism by returning to an episode we did on the complicated legacy of the American Revolution. This older episode now has a 40 minute preface where we discuss the episode and how much things have changed since the original, enjoy!  Like the bourgeois project as a whole, the historical consequences of the American Revolution have had mixed results. Simultaneously spurring on the cause of human freedom and stifling it, the American Revolution was pregnant with a creative and destructive spirit. As the American Empire appears to be in decline, we ask whether or not things could have gone, or could still go, in another direction.

Part 2 of a conversation with Youtube personailty Quang Nguyen of Quang PhilosophyJungian Psychology and AI Psychosis: Caesar discusses his personal discovery of Carl Jung's work following a meditative experience, noting how Jungian themes appear throughout pop culture. The hosts debate how AI platforms like ChatGPT have become more cautious and condescending—directing users to therapists rather than exploring spiritual or psychological concepts—to avoid legal liability associated with "AI psychosis".The Debate Over IQ, Genetics, and Environment: The speakers dive into a complex discussion on human intelligence, referencing "The Bell Curve". Quang argues that environmental factors and "memetics" (the transmission of ideas and cultural knowledge) have a much more significant impact on IQ than genetics, while Caesar shares evolutionary theories regarding northern versus southern climates.Wealth Inequality and the American Empire: Quang frames economic inequality as a simple math problem where the wealth of the rich grows faster than the overall economy. This leads to a discussion on whether younger generations still believe in the long-term growth of the U.S. stock market, especially given the perceived decline of the American Empire.Retail Investing, Geopolitics, and Elite Market Dynamics: The hosts talk about the challenges of retail investing, referencing geopolitical events like the Iran war and the 2025 tariffs that caused market dips. They question whether financial elites intentionally keep the best investment avenues (like private equity) away from average retail investors, noting Warren Buffett's recent moves to hold cash.

It's a measure of the fevered polarization in US society that even its history has become a matter of furious debate. Long before the current presidency, competing missions to redefine America's origins plunged the past into the heart of today's culture wars. From the 1619 project's attempt to reframe history around the arrival of slaves, to the 1776 commission's firm counter-narrative, the battle over what should be taught in schools and preserved in museums is intensifying. On Monday, the President launched a new front in this war, releasing a report detailing serious complaints about "divisive narratives" and "liberal ideology" inside the Smithsonian Institute. But beneath the partisan squabbling, the 250th anniversary of the nation raises a darker, existential question: Is this the revolutionary republic that defeated an empire, or is it now an empire in decline? Piers Morgan is joined by a panel of distinguished historians to debate the future of the American soul: Lord Andrew Roberts, Douglas Brinkley, Roy Casagranda and Barry Strauss. 00:00 Introduction 02:05 Panel discussion begins 11:21 How does history view the progressive wave? 14:07 Is the whole premise of America founded on a lie? 16:53 Dave King's historical works 19:02 Is Trump the most powerful person that ever lived? 23:00 America's foreign policy since WW2 28:45 How unreliable are America's European allies? 29:44 Netanyahu's influence over America in the Iran war 34:20 Would Churchill have helped America if he were involved in the Iran war? 36:10 Conspiracy theories in America - will we ever find out the truth? 39:20 Who has been the greatest American President and the greatest British Monarch?

The Fourth of July is supposed to feel like a reset, but it hits differently when people look around and see a country that can fund anything abroad while families cut back at home. We start with a viral political message about America's contradictions, then challenge the instinct to turn Independence Day into a scolding session. For us, the better move is to separate the ideals worth celebrating from the government actions worth opposing and to ask what it would take to return the American empire to a constitutional republic. From there, we dig into the economic anxiety behind the anger. When millions feel like they have no prospects, politics becomes a fight over villains instead of a fight for opportunity. We talk about the opioid crisis, fentanyl overdoses, and suicides as brutal signals that parts of the country have lost hope. The key question is not whether wealth exists, but whether regular people can realistically climb, start businesses, and build stable lives. That leads to the heart of our argument: corporate welfare and regulatory capture. Government contracts, subsidies, and a sprawling regulatory code reward the biggest players and punish everyone else. If only giant corporations can afford compliance, lawyers, and lobbying, “free markets” become a slogan while competition quietly dies. We then connect the domestic squeeze to US foreign policy: NATO burden sharing, the Iran war, the Strait of Hormuz, and a Ukraine poll showing strong public preference for negotiations. Power is shifting, allies are saying “no,” and Washington cannot paper over reality with talking points. If this conversation adds value, subscribe, share the show, and leave a review.

Putin says Russia is in a “challenging period,” but the more revealing question is what comes next when a war stops feeling like a crisis and starts running on autopilot. We unpack why Russia can look simultaneously steady and stuck: not prone to emotional swings, yet still locked into a slow, costly grind where drone strikes reach deep targets, NATO proximity raises the stakes, and every month of fighting makes the eventual political settlement harder to swallow. From there, we zoom in on the Ukraine endgame that rarely gets discussed honestly. If Russia holds territory in the east and south, what happens to the remaining Ukrainian politics when the most Russia-leaning constituencies are effectively removed from future elections? We talk about why that dynamic can empower hardliners, including the rise of Andriy Biletsky and the institutional growth of the former Azov network, and why a “freeze the lines” ceasefire can simply set the stage for the next phase across the Dnieper. We also connect the dots to Washington's incentives, including the explicit “Afghanistan” framing some prominent voices used before and after the invasion, and how that mindset treats Ukrainians as expendable inputs in a long proxy war. Then we pivot to the Middle East, breaking down reports and proposals that point toward pressuring Lebanon in ways that could spark a dangerous confrontation with Hezbollah and push a fragile country closer to civil conflict. If you care about Ukraine, Russia, NATO escalation, neocon strategy, and Middle East spillover risks, this conversation is for you.

On this episode of Special Cloth Talk, the SCT brothers broadly discuss the quarter millennium of American Empire.    

Tomorrow, America will celebrate its birth. But the decisive moment, even the real birth of modern America, argues Alexander Mikaberidze in his new book The Louisiana Purchase: The Grand Bargain and the Making of America, may not have been 1776 at all. It was 1803, the year of the Louisiana Purchase. The year Thomas Jefferson bought the future from Napoleon Bonaparte. This was the moment the young American republic doubled its size in a single transaction, absorbed the heart of a continent and set itself on the path to becoming a global superpower. The numbers associated with the Louisiana Purchase are staggering. 828,000 square miles. Thirteen states. Fifteen million dollars — four cents an acre, so the mythology tells us. But Mikaberidze reminds us that the deal Jefferson signed did not actually grant the United States the land. Instead, it merely authorised the republic to negotiate the acquisition of land still owned by Native Americans. So it became the founding event of the US-Indian Treaty System that produced over 200 Native American cessions between 1804 and 1970, and cost the Republic billions of dollars. The Louisiana Purchase was America's grand Faustian bargain. It was a deal that not only enabled America's eventual rise as a 20th century superpower, but also the expansion of slavery, the destruction of Native peoples, and the 19th century imperial reach of the Monroe Doctrine. So forget 1776 and save the fireworks to remember 1803. And celebrate with croissants rather than hot dogs. Without Napoleon Bonaparte's generosity, the United States might be just another regional power like France. Five Takeaways •       The Louisiana Purchase: Arguably the Decisive Moment in American History: Mikaberidze's opening argument: if you had to pick the single most important moment in American history, 1803 has a stronger claim than 1776. Independence established the republic. The Louisiana Purchase made it a continental power. 828,000 square miles. Thirteen states. The heart of the continent. Securing the Mississippi for American commerce. Laying the groundwork for the Monroe Doctrine, Manifest Destiny, and America's eventual emergence as a global superpower. The revolution created the nation. The purchase created its destiny. •       Four Cents an Acre? The Real Price Was Billions: The famous number: $15 million, or four cents an acre. The less famous fact: the agreement Jefferson signed did not grant the United States the land. It merely authorised the republic to negotiate the acquisition of the land, which was still owned by Native Americans. The Louisiana Purchase was the founding event of the US-Indian Treaty System — which produced over 200 Native American cessions between 1804 and 1970, and cost the United States not $15 million but billions of dollars. What appeared to be the greatest real estate deal in history was actually an authorisation to conduct the most expensive series of land negotiations in history. •       The Grand Faustian Bargain: Slavery, Native Peoples, and the Monroe Doctrine: Andrew's formulation — the Grand Faustian Bargain, the deal with the devil — is one Mikaberidze accepts. The purchase did three things simultaneously: it made America a continental power and a future superpower; it enabled the expansion of slavery into the vast new territory (the Missouri crisis of 1820 was a direct consequence); and it set in motion the dispossession of Native peoples at a scale and speed that would otherwise have been impossible. The Monroe Doctrine — America's declaration that the Western Hemisphere was its sphere of influence — would not have been conceivable without the continental reach the purchase provided. •       Napoleon's Bad Weather: The Contingency That Made America: The counterfactual at the heart of Mikaberidze's book: in October 1802, Napoleon had 4,000 veteran French troops ready to sail for New Orleans. The bad weather delayed them. Then it was too late — war with Britain was coming, and Napoleon decided to sell. If those troops had arrived, Mikaberidze argues, France might have retained effective control of southern Louisiana, cultivated alliances with Native nations (as it historically had), and used those alliances to constrain American expansion inland. Without the Louisiana hinterland, the American republic might have been a prosperous but regionally limited power, strong in New England and the Northeast but denied the continental reach that made it a superpower. •       Croissants in Kansas, Tacos in Oklahoma: The Counterfactual Continents: Andrew's closing question: what would July 4 look like in Kansas and Oklahoma if the purchase hadn't happened? Mikaberidze's answer: French Louisiana, Spanish Texas, and Native-controlled hinterlands are all in play. The people of Kansas might indeed be celebrating with croissants rather than hot dogs. Mikaberidze adds: or tacos. Almost certainly more tacos and moles, given the Spanish and ultimately Mexican influence that would have prevailed across most of the continent. The American empire of liberty, in this alternative timeline, stops somewhere in the middle of what is now Missouri. About the Guest Alexander Mikaberidze is Professor of History and the Ruth Herring Noel Endowed Chair at Louisiana State University-Shreveport. He is the author of The Louisiana Purchase: The Grand Bargain and the Making of America (Oxford University Press, July 3, 2026) and more than two dozen other books, including Kutuzov: A Life in War and Peace (Oxford, 2022) and The Napoleonic Wars: A Global History (Oxford, 2020), both winners of the Society for Military History's Distinguished Book Award and the Gilder-Lehrman Military History Prize. He was born in Georgia (the Caucasus) and has lived in Shreveport, Louisiana for twenty-six years. References: •       The Louisiana Purchase: The Grand Bargain and the Making of America by Alexander Mikaberidze (Oxford University Press, July 3, 2026).

The world changed abruptly in the early 1990s when the Soviet Union collapsed seemingly overnight, and the American Empire moved into a new era of dominance. Culturally, the music was fantastic, and things were good, but starting to change for the worse with the push of gangster rap, the emergence of global terrorism, and the deregulation of industries. The Gulf War kicked off during the first days of 1991 and has never stopped. George H.W. Bush wrapped up loose ends with the murder of Danny Cassolero by his Enterprise group, then ignored the ending of the Franklin Scandal he helped to create in order to take out Reagan.---Macroaggressionswww.Macroaggressions.ioMerch StoreLink Tree Video ChannelsRumble | YouTube | BrighteonActivist PostNewsletter Sign UpAudiobooksHypocrazyThe Octopus of Global ControlSupport Our SponsorsReplace Your Mortgage: www.WipeOutYourMortgageNow.comGround Luxe Grounding MatsC60 Power | Promo Code: MACROChemical Free Body | Promo Code: MACROWise Wolf Gold & SilverLegalShield: www.DontGetPushedAround.comChristian Yordanov's Health ProgramThe Dollar VigilanteNesa's Hemp | Promo Code: MACROAugason Farms

Today on Uncommon Sense, we're discussing the ongoing controversy surrounding the Epstein files, its blackmail, the political implications of Charlie Kirk's assassination, and the growing conflict between Israel and Iran. We'll also talk about the influence of powerful Israeli interests on American foreign policy and ask whether the United States is being drawn into another Middle Eastern war against the will of its own citizens (and at our cost, yet again).--https://www.youversion.com/bible-app

On a spring evening in Londinium, Gaius and Germanicus philosophize on the decline of the American Empire, drawing parallels between modern leadership and historical Roman crises. They contrast current American hesitancy with the "impetuosity" of Rome, suggesting the US has entered a "straitened situation" mirroring the 3rd-century Romancollapse. They argue that internal domestic weakness and a "venal" establishment—which the public views as an "Epstein class"—have eroded the altruism of the American century. (1)81 BCE SULLA

After Barbary: Algeria's Roles in the French and American Empires (Cornell University Press, 2025) by Dr. Timothy Mason Roberts explores the connection between the United States and North Africa between the Barbary Wars of the early nineteenth century and the era of European decolonization after World War II. Dr. Roberts offers a new approach to the study of empires, highlighting the significance of Algeria in French-American relations from France's first occupation of the country through the first years of independence of the Republic of Algeria. As Dr. Roberts demonstrates, imperial authorities in Washington, DC; Paris; and Algiers rarely collaborated intentionally in institutional partnerships or alliances. Rather, American, French, and Algerian politicians, soldiers, writers, and revolutionaries—often acting at cross purposes and across political and cultural boundaries—sought power by imagining and constructing Algeria as a fissured, dynamic, transimperial space. Focusing on issues of settler colonialism, irregular warfare, racialized citizenship, territorial incorporation, and pan-African identity, After Barbary shows how French Algeria helped make the American and French empires. This interview was conducted by Dr. Miranda Melcher whose book focuses on post-conflict military integration, understanding treaty negotiation and implementation in civil war contexts, with qualitative analysis of the Angolan and Mozambican civil wars.

Is the American empire in decline?The Trump administration's recent military actions have had certain observers asking... are we going full empire? But Daniel Immerwahr, a historian and the author of How to Hide an Empire, argues that the U.S. has engaged in empire building for hundreds of years — we've just been sneakier about it than other countries.In this episode from our friends at Code Switch, host Gene Demby is joined by Daniel to break down why we don't really think of ourselves as a colonial power – and how President Trump's international escapades are scrambling the global order.For more episodes about the US empire, check out:The human labor that makes AI workCanada hates us, but it's not all Trump's fault.Support Public Media.

Despite recent claims from President Donald Trump that the war in Iran has “terminated,” hundreds of ships are still stranded in the blockade of the Strait of Hormuz, and the ceasefire has never fully taken hold. Meanwhile, gas prices keep climbing, shortages are spreading, and economic uncertainty is growing. Is this really Trump's “best plan ever?”  Today on Lever Time, David Sirota sits down with Daniel Bessner and Derek Davison, hosts of the foreign policy and global affairs podcast American Prestige. They examine the deeper meaning and long-term consequences of Trump's war in Iran — including the Republican Party's internal divisions over U.S. foreign policy, the role of Israel and China in the conflict, whether high gas prices are the new normal, and why, despite everything, they're hopeful about our future.

The psychological tactic known as “Rally Around the Flag” was in full effect in the aftermath of 9/11 to galvanize a scared and angry public into launching the “War of Terror” in the Middle East. There has not been much public support for the newest war of aggression launched by the bloodthirsty American Empire and the Greater Israel Project Zionists, but that could always change.Absent a catastrophic and catalyzing event (like a new Pearl Harbor) - it is difficult to get the public to support another war, so expect just such an event in the near future. The planned famines are right around the corner, and the energy lockdowns will be a major part of it, but there must be a spark to light the fire.—Video ChannelsWatch the video version of Macroaggressions:Rumble: https://rumble.com/c/Macroaggressions YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@MacroaggressionsPodcastBrighteon: https://www.brighteon.com/channels/macroaggressions/—MACRO & Charlie Robinson LinksHypocrazy Audiobook: https://amzn.to/4aogwmsThe Octopus of Global Control Audiobook: https://amzn.to/3xu0rMmWebsite: www.Macroaggressions.ioMerch Store: https://macroaggressions.dashery.com/ Link Tree: https://linktr.ee/macroaggressionspodcast—Activist Post FamilySign up for the Activist Post Newsletter: https://activistpost.kit.com/emailsActivist Post: www.ActivistPost.comNatural Blaze: www.NaturalBlaze.com —Support Our SponsorsGround Luxe Grounding Mats: https://GroundLuxe.com/MACROReplace Your Mortgage: www.WipeOutYourMortgageNow.comC60 Power: https://go.ShopC60.com/PBGRT/KMKS9/ | Promo Code: MACROChemical Free Body: https://ChemicalFreeBody.com/macro/ | Promo Code: MACROWise Wolf Gold & Silver: https://Macroaggressions.Gold/ | (800) 426-1836LegalShield: www.DontGetPushedAround.comEMP Shield: www.EMPShield.com | Promo Code: MACROChristian Yordanov's Health Program: www.LiveLongerFormula.com/macroAbove Phone: https://AbovePhone.com/macro/Van Man: https://VanMan.shop/?ref=MACRO | Promo Code: MACROThe Dollar Vigilante: https://DollarVigilante.spiffy.co/a/O3wCWenlXN/4471Nesa's Hemp: www.NesasHemp.com | Promo Code: MACROAugason Farms: https://AugasonFarms.com/MACRO—

A journalist can be jailed, raided, and investigated for more than a year without ever being charged and that's not a glitch, it's the point. I sit down with investigative journalist Richard Medhurst to talk about his legal situation spanning the UK and Austria, where authorities have attempted to frame journalism as terrorism. We dig into what that kind of pressure does to reporting, academic work, and basic free speech, especially when the topic is Gaza and Western foreign policy. Then we zoom out to the story Richard says most people are missing: the energy war underneath the news. He argues the U.S. is executing a coherent strategy to dominate global oil and gas supply, protect dollar power, and reshape who gets energy and at what price. We walk through strikes on Russian tankers, refineries, and export hubs, disruptions to LNG flows impacting China, and why “economic defeat” and “military humiliation” aren't the same thing in long-term geopolitical planning. We also look at Europe's role in replacing Russian gas, the Mediterranean gas deals tied to major corporations like Chevron, and the debate over whether Israel drives U.S. decisions or functions as a proxy within a larger corporate-led project. Finally, Richard brings firsthand context from Vienna and the IAEA, explaining how Iran has repeatedly offered nuclear off-ramps while the West escalates with sanctions and condemnation. If this gave you a new lens on press freedom, energy geopolitics, the petrodollar, and U.S. foreign policy, subscribe, share the episode, and leave a review with the one claim you think people most need to argue about.

This week on SUNDAY WIRE returns with host Patrick Henningsen, covering the biggest stories in the US and internationally. This week we look at the incredible crisis over the Persian Gulf, Israel's latest attempt at genocide in South Lebanon, and Trump upcoming meeting with President Xi in China. Is a renewed war the inevitable? Can the American Empire die gracefully, or will they take down the rest of the world with them? Later in the Overdrive segment, we're joined by teammates Bryan "Hesher" McClain and Adam "Ruckus" Clark, for deeper comment and analysis on this week's earth-shaking geopolitical development.

The American Empire is stepping on rakes all over the Middle East, but this time it could cause an economic collapse, if not a global famine. The City of London plays a role in the severity of this war, and might even be calling the shots. The British know a thing or two about ruling the High Seas.The maritime choke point known as the Strait of Hormuz has been the topic of conversation around the world, as Iran squeezes the flow of oil to a slow drip. The only real surprise is that the Trump Administration pretended not to think this was a possibility. As we all sit on the brink of World War 3 breaking out globally, a decision made by an insurance company in London might be the final straw that sways history in a deadly direction.—Video ChannelsWatch the video version of Macroaggressions:Rumble: https://rumble.com/c/Macroaggressions YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@MacroaggressionsPodcastBrighteon: https://www.brighteon.com/channels/macroaggressions/—MACRO & Charlie Robinson LinksHypocrazy Audiobook: https://amzn.to/4aogwmsThe Octopus of Global Control Audiobook: https://amzn.to/3xu0rMmWebsite: www.Macroaggressions.ioMerch Store: https://macroaggressions.dashery.com/ Link Tree: https://linktr.ee/macroaggressionspodcast—Activist Post FamilySign up for the Activist Post Newsletter: https://activistpost.kit.com/emailsActivist Post: www.ActivistPost.comNatural Blaze: www.NaturalBlaze.com —Support Our SponsorsGround Luxe Grounding Mats: https://GroundLuxe.com/MACROReplace Your Mortgage: www.WipeOutYourMortgageNow.comC60 Power: https://go.ShopC60.com/PBGRT/KMKS9/ | Promo Code: MACROChemical Free Body: https://ChemicalFreeBody.com/macro/ | Promo Code: MACROWise Wolf Gold & Silver: https://Macroaggressions.Gold/ | (800) 426-1836LegalShield: www.DontGetPushedAround.comEMP Shield: www.EMPShield.com | Promo Code: MACROChristian Yordanov's Health Program: www.LiveLongerFormula.com/macroAbove Phone: https://AbovePhone.com/macro/Van Man: https://VanMan.shop/?ref=MACRO | Promo Code: MACROThe Dollar Vigilante: https://DollarVigilante.spiffy.co/a/O3wCWenlXN/4471Nesa's Hemp: www.NesasHemp.com | Promo Code: MACROAugason Farms: https://AugasonFarms.com/MACRO—

Is the American Empire finally crumbling? In this episode, I analyze the mounting evidence that the U.S. is facing a pivotal moment of decline—drawing on insights from experts like Douglas Macgregor, Michael Hudson, Jeffrey Sachs, and Alfred McCoy. From the strategic failure of the Iran War and the global gold exodus to the collapsing petrodollar and striking historical parallels with the 1956 Suez Crisis, we break down why the era of U.S. hegemony may be ending. We also expose RFK Jr.'s lies about prescription drug prices, reveal what the World Economic Forum quietly admits about inequality, and explain why Trump's "micro-military disasters" have only accelerated the empire's unraveling toward a multipolar world. My livestreams are on Mon and Fri at 3pm ET/Noon PT and Wednesday at 8pm ET/5pm PT. I am one of the most censored comedians in America. Thanks for the support!
