STREAMING THE MAKING OF JBS, FEATURING THADDEUS MCCOTTER AND JACK BURNHAM, 5-5-261/4: John Batchelor describes his co-host, Thaddeus McCotter (a former member of Congress and writer for American Greatness), as a "good colleague of many years" and his "partisan advisor." He also frequently consults with Jack Burnham, a senior research analyst at the Foundation for Defense of Democracies, regarding Chinese cyber operations and "unrestricted warfare."2/4: Batchelor frames the program around the concept of "pocketbook politics," arguing that while voters talk about foreign affairs, they generally "vote pocketbook." He explores how current events, such as the conflict with Iran and rising gasoline prices, blend foreign policy with domestic economic concerns.3/4: Batchelor guides segments on the "geopolitics of our European allies" and "Asian adversaries," specifically focusing on Moscow and Beijing. He expresses particular interest in the Chinese government's campaign to "interrupt, to intervene, to thieve, to just generally harass" the United States through cyber hacking groups like Salt Typhoon and Silk Typhoon.4/4: Batchelor often takes a "meta" approach to the broadcast, noting when the "making of the show becomes the theme of the show." He manages the program's timing and transitions, ending the session by referencing the "Roman Orchestra"—a term he uses for the closing music—and noting the need to pay "union wages" to the musicians as the segment concludes.

It's Monday, March 30th, A.D. 2026. This is The Worldview in 5 Minutes heard on 140 radio stations and at www.TheWorldview.com.  I'm Adam McManus. (Adam@TheWorldview.com) By Adam McManus Nigerian archbishop to Trump:  “Give us weapons” to “eradicate” Islamic terrorists Archbishop Ignatius Kaigama of Abuja, Nigeria called on the Trump administration to provide intelligence and weapons to the Nigerian government to help combat the brutal persecution of the country's Christians at the hands of Islamic terrorists, reports LifeSiteNews.com. During a March 20th press briefing hosted by Aid to the Church in Need as, Archbishop Kaigama praised Trump for being the first world leader to “clearly and unequivocally” declare that Nigerian Christians are being persecuted, reports EWTN. The archbishop emphasized, however, that Trump's remarks and his administration's December bombing in Nigeria have only emboldened Islamist terror groups, such as Boko Haram, to carry out more attacks on Christians. He called on the 47th president to share intelligence with and provide weapons to the Nigerian government to help them put an end to the persecution for good. Kaigama said, “I was glad when I heard Donald Trump say, ‘We are going to go to Nigeria; we are going to put an end to Boko Haram. At Christmas, we received a gift — a bomb that fell on Nigerian soil — and, truth be told, I could not say whether it did any good. “That incident, coupled with Donald Trump's words, has greatly inflamed the passions of the Islamists in that territory. The number of attacks, the number of kidnappings carried out by Boko Haram and other groups, has been rising ever since.” Islamic persecution of Christians in Nigeria tied to sharia law Persecution of Christians in Nigeria began to spike after 1999, when 12 northern states adopted Sharia law. The rise of the terrorist group Boko Haram in 2009 marked a dramatic escalation in the attacks. Famously, the group kidnapped hundreds of schoolgirls in 2014; 87 of them are still listed as “missing.” From 2009 to 2022, over 50,000 Christians were killed in the country. A 2024 report found that more than 8,000 Nigerian Christians were killed and thousands more were abducted in 2023 alone, making it the bloodiest year on record for Islamic attacks against Christians in the country. Sportscaster Stephen Smith calls out hypocritical Democrats Stephen A. Smith, the ESPN sportscaster, speaks the truth when he ventures into the political world. This time, he chastised Democrats for hypocritically complaining about President Donald Trump's willingness to do something about the growing Iranian threat. Listen. SMITH: “You got a lot of nerve to be in the face of the American people saying for numerous administration, ‘Iran is a problem. They have to be dealt with.'  And then this man deals with them, and then all of a sudden, you complaining about him now. It doesn't really make sense. It's a lack of consistency.” BILL CLINTON: “I am formally announcing my intention to cut off all trade and investment with Iran.” GEORGE W. BUSH: “Our second goal is to prevent regimes that sponsored terror from threatening America or our friends and allies.  Iran aggressively pursues these weapons and exports terror while an unelected few repress the Iranian people's hope for freedom.” BARACK OBAMA: “I strongly believe that our national security interest now depends upon preventing Iran from obtaining a nuclear weapon.” JOE BIDEN: “Well, I can say to you, Iran will never get a nuclear weapon on my watch, as they say.” DONALD TRUMP:  “As President of the United States, I would never allow the world's number one state sponsor of terror to obtain a nuclear weapon. I said that for a long time, and I didn't.” 3,500 U.S. Troops arrive in Middle East as Iran war strikes intensify More than 3,500 U.S. troops, including the U.S.S. Tripoli with about 2,500 Marines, arrived in the Middle East, officials announced Saturday, as strikes in the Iran war intensified, reports CBS News. It's the most updated of the amphibious warships, known as a "big deck," which allows more room for F-35 Stealth Fighter Jets, Ospreys and other aircraft. The ship had previously been based in Japan when the order to deploy to the Middle East came almost two weeks ago. Corey Lewandowski out at Department of Homeland Security Corey Lewandowski, a special government employee who served as a top adviser to former Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem, no longer has a role with the DHS, reports NewsNation.com. Last week, Democrats on the House Oversight Committee called for an investigation, saying that almost immediately after entering the agency, Lewandowski “exercised outsized influence over DHS far beyond what a special government employee is authorized to do.” Lewandowski was the campaign manager for President Trump in 2016. Plus, according to the September 2021 report of conservative media outlet American Greatness, he had an extramarital affair with the married South Dakota governor Kristi Noem, for whom he had long been a political advisor. Exodus 20:14 says, “You shall not commit adultery.” War Secretary Pete Hegseth reforms Chaplain Corps War Secretary Pete Hegseth says his latest reforms will allow the Chaplain Corps to fulfill its mission of being the spiritual backbone of America's military, reports The Western Journal. HEGSETH: “In previous administrations, our Chaplain Corps was infected by political correctness and secular humanism. The core functions of the Chaplain Corps were changed and watered down until they were viewed by many as nothing more than therapists. Faith and virtue were traded for self-help and self-care. “The crucible of combat tests more than the body. It tests conviction, character and spirit. The military's Chaplain Corps serves as spiritual and moral backbone of our nation's armed forces. Chaplains help forge spiritual readiness across the force, and that matters because in combat, in crisis, and in loss, a war fighter needs more than a coping mechanism. “They need truth, ‘big T' truth. They need conviction. They need a shepherd. Spiritual health is equally important to a service member's physical and emotional health.” According to a War Department news release, the number of faith codes used in the service has been winnowed down to 31. In 2017, the Pentagon issued a list of 221 groups that qualified as a religious group. Oddly enough, the list included witches and atheists, according to Stars and Stripes. Hegseth said, “It was impractical and unusable, and many codes were never used at all.” He noted that 82% of service members, who identify as being religious, used six of the codes. The War Secretary added that the chaplains will display their religious insignia on their uniforms instead of their ranks. He said, “A chaplain is first and foremost a chaplain, and an officer second. This change is a visual representation of that fact.” Christian stewardess gave her life for passengers on sinking ship And finally, on March 30th, 1899, the steamship Stella, carrying 147 passengers and 43 crew. struck some rocks in a fog while sailing to Guernsey, the second largest island in the Channel Islands in the English Channel. Mary Rogers, a cheerful, kind, and hard-working stewardess, supervised the escape of a large number of women and relinquished her own life vest to the last of them and gave up her place in the lifeboat. Four lifeboats were successfully launched and one capsized. Raising her hands to Heaven, Mary Rogers yelled, “Lord, have me!” as the ship sank beneath her within eight minutes. John 15:13 says, “Greater love has no one than this: to lay down one's life for one's friends.” Or, in this case, absolute strangers.

In this episode of El Niño Speaks, José Niño is joined by Malcolm Kyeyune to dissect the catastrophic trajectory of the current Iran war.They explore why this war marks the final nail in the coffin for the American Empire, the inevitable betrayal of Donald Trump by his own political class, and why the “clash of civilizations” narrative—from the United States to the Sweden Democrats—has become a stalking horse for Zionism. We also discuss why antisemitism is re-emerging as the natural, “off-the-shelf” response to the decay of Western institutions.American Affairs: https://americanaffairsjournal.org/author/malcom-kyeyune/American Greatness: https://amgreatness.com/author/oliver-bateman-and-malcom-kyeyune/Compact Mag: https://www.compactmag.com/columnist/malcom-kyeyuneThe American Conservative: https://www.theamericanconservative.com/author/oliver-bateman-and-malcolm-kyeyune/Twitter: https://twitter.com/SwordMercuryUnherd: https://unherd.com/author/malcom-kyeyune/Website: https://tinkzorg.wordpress.com/If you liked the show, feel free to continue supporting my work.

My guest today is Shyam Sankar, the CTO of Palantir Technologies. In this conversation, we explore the ideas that shape how Shyam thinks about technology, talent, and national power. We discuss the origins of Palantir's forward-deployed engineering model and the lessons he learned from Alex Karp about identifying people's "superpowers". We also talk about Shyam's fascination with the "heretics" of American history, the unconventional builders who challenged bureaucracy and created many of the systems that powered America's military and industrial success. Shyam argues that the United States must reindustrialize after decades of moving production overseas, and explains what we can learn from America's industrial past. In a new Colossus profile, our Editor in Chief Jeremy Stern tells the story of how Shyam became one of the most important but largely unseen figures behind Palantir, tracing his journey from immigrant roots to employee #13 and the architect of the company's success and distinctive culture.

   Team USA wins Olympic Gold in hockey and if anyone can actually believe it, this seems to be dividing Americans.  Jack Hughes delivered the Golden Goal and the celebration was wild.  It involved a tribute to a fallen teammate, an awkward medal ceremony for the Canadians, the FBI Directory pounding Mich Ultras partying in the locker room and President Trump on the phone.  Trump promised America would get tired of all the winning and if you see what liberals and their media are saying... it's true.  They are sick of Trump and patriotic Americans winning.    It was a tough Saturday for our college basketball teams, especially KU.  Chiefs Receiver Hollywood Brown shares a really sad story about NFL player Rondale Moore who was found dead in a garage.    A crazed gunman fixated on Epstein and Trump goes to Mar-a-Lago with a shotgun and a gas can.  The left just keeps stoking the fire in crazy people to go try to get Trump... even if it kills them.   Two KC area high schools make big news with protests gone wrong... this has to stop.   And our Final Final is a Chiefs legend and a famous actor in a big time commercial.

   I still get goosebumps thinking about the amazing military operation the USA conducted in Venezuela to extract narco drug lord Nicolas Maduro.  It may take months before we know just how great it was but with 150 planes in the sky and plenty of boots on the ground, it was close to perfect.   The world is amazed... and they should be.   Venezuelans cheer the news while hard left pols in America that used to call for Maduro to be taken out now say it's illegal because it's Trump.  They really love any country but ours.    The Chiefs season ends rolling craps in Vegas but they have a high draft pick and an excellent off season set up to completely remake this team.    Royals manager Matt Quatraro gets a contract extension, KU can't shake its Peterson problem and Mizzou beats the Florida Gators, again.    Our Final Final is a Guinness Record at a world famous beach.

New images of the suspected gunman in the Brown University shooting this weekend have emerged.

In this episode of the ProveText Podcast, Dr. T. Michael W. Halcomb sits down with Dr. Paul D.

HEADLINE: Remembering Resilience and a WWII Hero: The Children's Tree and the Legacy of Edward Shames GUEST NAMES: John Batchelor (Host), Thaddeus McCotter of American Greatness, and Malcolm Hoenlein 200-WORD SUMMARY: The program discussed the dedication of the Children's Tree in Battery Park, a powerful symbol of resilience and hope grown from cuttings of a tree secretly nurtured by Jewish children at Terezín (Theresienstadt) concentration camp during the Holocaust. In 1943, teacher Irma Lauscher courageously smuggled the original sapling into the camp so that children could celebrate Arbor Day and maintain a connection to life and normalcy amid unimaginable circumstances. The children sacrificed their precious water rations to care for the tree, demonstrating extraordinary determination and spirit. The 15-foot tree now standing in Battery Park will be cared for by children at the Battery Park School, ensuring that this legacy of hope continues for future generations. The segment also paid tribute to the late Edward Shames, the last surviving member of the legendary Band of Brothers (Easy Company, 506th Parachute Infantry Regiment), who died at age 99. Shames participated in D-Day (Operation Overlord) and was among the first members of the 101st Airborne Division to enter Dachau concentration camp upon its liberation, witnessing firsthand the horrors of the Holocaust. In a remarkable footnote to history, he later acquired Hitler's private cognac from the Eagle's Nest, a personal memento from the fall of the Third Reich. 1698 JERUSALEM The segment also paid tribute to the late Edward Shames, the last surviving member of the legendary Band of Brothers (Easy Company, 506th Parachute Infantry Regiment), who died at age 99.

   The Royals just lost a homestand.  Every game.  All very similar as the bats are so silent you can hear yourself breath inside Kauffman Stadium.  Is this the end of the 2025 season?  Should the Royals be thinking about trading away players to build a better team down the road?  Well, somehow they are still only 3 games back of a playoff spot so we think they'll be hanging on a few more weeks.  But, man, its ugly.    The US Open Golf Championship at Oakmont in Pennsylvania was a hot mess from start to finish but what a little known journeyman named JJ Spaun did on the 72nd hole is the stuff of legend.    A guest columnist pens a nice piece in support of NKC being the best location for a new Royals Stadium.  KU Athletic Director Travis Goff says KU will spend more of it's salary cap money for Bill Self's basketball team than almost any other school.    Army 250 and No Kings Day made headlines this weekend.  One was a celebration of American Greatness, the other a collection of misfits bitching about Trump being a King.  And No Kings Day was plenty peaceful in KC but deadly in Utah and Minnesota.    Pope Leo appeared on the Jumbotron at White Sox park for a special mass this weekend.  Rand Paul may be on board with the Big Beautiful Bill and Fenway Park workers may go on strike.

It's becoming a very real and disturbing trend: There are millions of people who are enthusiastic supporters of Donald Trump and MAGA — until the time comes to actually stick a ballot into the ballot box.
