Part 11. We're continuing from 13 January 2026, discussing the second subsection in his chapter 5 (The Relation of Ideological Tyranny to the Authoritarian State), called "The Demonism of Ideologized Christianity" based on the insights from a master observer of both types of totalitarian socialisms on the Left, national socialism -- sometimes called fascism -- and the kind of socialism that the Communists in East Germany and Russia had during the 1900s, during the life of Dr. Thielicke. (USSR meant Union of Soviet Socialist Republics). We go from pp. 62 to the bottom of p. 66 at the beginning of the next subsection. (See 13 Jan 2026, "Revelation 13...." for the last episode in this series). Our return guest today on The Republican Professor Podcast is the former professor of Theology at the University of Hamburg in West Germany, Dr. Helmut Thielicke, Ph.D., D.Theol. (Philosophy and Theology). Professor Thielicke once again joins us through his teaching in his Theological Ethics, Vol. 2: Politics. My copy was purchased at Old Capitol Books (new location) in Monterey, California, across from Nick the Greek restaurant on Alvarado Street (their old location was 559 Tyler, Monterey, CA, across from the Peet's Coffee and was formerly Book Haven for many years), and is a hard copy published in 1969 by Fortress Press and edited by William H. Lazareth. Thielicke died before he was able to come on to The Republican Professor Podcast. We thank Fortress Press for making the book available. Check out their catalogue for a full listing of their very interesting titles, and buy one. Get a copy of this for yourself and following along in our transformative, performative reading of it as we make fair use on his insights, with fresh scholarly commentary from me, and allow it to shape our understanding of American Politics. This is part 11 in a series on The Republican Professor Podcast, an introduction to theological reflection on American government. Here, we continue the topic of the nature and power of "ideology" in Communist Socialist and National Socialist (sometimes called by others fascistic socialism/fascism). Our very special guest today is, once again, the esteemed and long-time Professor of Theology at the University of Hamburg, Helmut Thielicke. And I've invited Professor Thielicke to join us today through my transformative, performative reading (with my scholarly commentary upon) and fair use of his teaching on this topic in his magisterial "Theological Ethics, Volume 2: Politics." My copy of the book was published in 1969 by Fortress Press. Please buy a copy of the book and follow along with our study of this material. Please, please support your brick and mortar used book dealers as well. Professor Thielicke died before we were able to invite him in person as a guest on the podcast. Thanks to Fortress Press, the book is still in print and would be a valuable addition, indeed, to your personal library. Please support the work of Fortress Press and buy the book, and check out the other selections that they carry, as well. The Republican Professor Podcast is a pro-deeply-conversing-on-the-theological-aspects-of-the-nature-of-government podcast. Therefore, welcome Professor Helmut Thielicke !

Is It Really Unconstitutional or Do Americans Just Not Understand War Powers?Is the latest U.S. military action unconstitutional… or are Americans arguing about the Constitution without fully understanding what it actually says?In this episode of Go Right with Peter Boykin: The Constitutionalist for Liberty, Peter breaks down the truth behind presidential war powers, the War Powers Resolution of 1973, and why the word “unconstitutional” has become one of the most misused terms in modern political debate.As social media erupts with outrage over a limited U.S. military operation involving Iran, this monologue steps back from partisan noise to examine how military authority has actually functioned inside America's Constitutional Republic for more than fifty years. From the balance between Congress and the Commander in Chief to the difference between political disagreement and constitutional violation, this episode focuses on facts, law, and civic understanding rather than slogans.This is not about defending or attacking a political party. It is about understanding the system Americans live under and why civic knowledge matters now more than ever.Topics covered:• The War Powers Resolution explained simply• Why Congress has not formally declared war since World War II• Presidential authority vs congressional oversight• How both parties have used modern war powers• The difference between legality and political opinion• Why constitutional literacy matters in a free societyWatch and Listen:https://rumble.com/v76jt68-is-it-really-unconstitutional-or-do-americans-just-not-understand-war-power.htmlhttps://youtu.be/dVTitbE4aS0https://www.spreaker.com/episode/is-it-really-unconstitutional-or-do-americans-just-not-understand-war-powers--70403315Read More:https://gorightnews.com/is-unconstitutional-becoming-americas-most-misused-political-buzzword/Follow and support independent constitutional commentary:

Is Election Day About Parties or About Independent Thinkers? | Go Right with Peter BoykinAs election day arrives in North Carolina, a growing political force continues to reshape the landscape of America's Constitutional Republic: the unaffiliated voter.In this episode of Go Right with Peter Boykin, the Constitutionalist for Liberty, we take a closer look at why more Americans are rejecting traditional party labels and what that means for candidates, campaigns, and the future direction of our elections.Are voters disengaged… or are they simply refusing to be managed by political machines?This monologue explores the frustration many independent voters feel toward establishment messaging, polling narratives, and campaign strategies that treat citizens like predictable voting blocs instead of individuals. From authenticity in leadership to the growing demand for genuine representation, this episode asks a deeper question:Is America still run by the people, or increasingly managed by power structures that underestimate independent minds?Election day is more than a contest between parties. It is a test of whether candidates understand voters who think for themselves.If you care about constitutional principles, political accountability, and the future of independent voices in American politics, this conversation is for you.Listen & Watchhttps://rumble.com/v76ihjc-is-election-day-about-parties-or-about-independent-thinkers.htmlhttps://youtu.be/inIrxUQUW8ghttps://www.spreaker.com/episode/is-election-day-about-parties-or-about-independent-thinkers--70391390https://gorightnews.com/are-unaffiliated-voters-about-to-decide-north-carolinas-future-while-parties-still-fight-yesterdays-battles/Follow & Support Go Right News

Was the 22nd Amendment really designed to protect democracy… or did it quietly reshape the balance of power in ways the Founding Fathers never intended? In this eye-opening episode of Truth Be Told, Tony Sweet dives deep into one of the most controversial constitutional changes in U.S. history—the amendment that permanently limited American presidents to just two terms in office following Franklin D. Roosevelt's unprecedented four-term presidency. But what if this wasn't just about preventing another “king-like” ruler? What if the 22nd Amendment fundamentally altered executive power… weakened voter choice… and shifted political influence toward unelected bureaucracies and long-term party operatives? We explore:

Guest hosts Andy Peth and Tanner Coleman, joined by Ashley Carter, take the mic for a fast-moving and thought-provoking Hour 1 of https://RushToReason.com, blending humor, cultural commentary, and serious political analysis ahead of a high-stakes State of the Union address. What does America actually want to hear right now—and more importantly, what are voters tired of hearing? Drawing on perspectives from younger Americans, the conversation explores unity, leadership tone, media influence, and why political messaging may be missing the mark. Should Donald Trump lean into confrontation, or would calm leadership and authenticity resonate more with voters heading into the midterms? The hosts debate immigration narratives, public perception, economic concerns, and generational expectations, asking whether optimism and shared national identity could shift the political climate. Andy Peth even outlines his own vision for a winning speech—centered on patriotism, progress, and common ground—sparking a lively exchange about what leadership should sound like in a divided era. Is this a roadmap for political success… or a missed opportunity waiting to happen? If you want insight into how everyday Americans—especially younger voices—are interpreting today's political moment, this hour delivers questions you won't stop thinking about. HOUR 2 Guest hosts Andy Peth and Tanner Coleman, joined by Ashley Carter, dive into one of the most challenging political questions of today: Why do young voters and independents seem so difficult for conservatives to reach—and is that perception wrong? Through candid discussion and generational insight, the hosts explore how culture, education, media narratives, and personal identity shape political loyalty long before adulthood. Is the divide really about policy—or about trust, perception, and feeling controlled? The conversation examines why many young Americans see one party as restrictive while viewing the other as liberating, even when real-world policies suggest something different. Caller Brett from Thornton joins the show, adding perspective on economic expectations, class messaging, and how early beliefs about success and ownership influence political attitudes. But the hour doesn't stop at diagnosis. Andy Peth introduces a surprising strategy: stop trying to “win” debates and instead lower hostility by recognizing shared motives first. Could empathy and understanding succeed where arguments fail? If political conversations feel impossible today, this hour asks the question everyone is thinking—are we talking to each other the wrong way? HOUR 3 Guest hosts Andy Peth and Tanner Coleman welcome recurring guest Jerzee Joe (host of the Jerzee Joe Podcast) for a fast-moving hour blending humor, political strategy, and headline analysis. The conversation begins with a behind-the-scenes look at the State of the Union: can one speech reshape public perception, and does tone matter more than policy? Andy and Jerzee Joe debate whether leadership today requires confrontation—or calm confidence aimed at persuading the middle. The discussion then shifts to major stories flying under the radar: alleged pay-to-play political access in Colorado, media fairness questions involving The View and FCC equal-time rules, and workplace controversies tied to discrimination and DEI policies. They also examine gig-economy legislation targeting Amazon drivers and ask whether regulation helps workers or quietly raises costs for everyone. The hour closes with a troubling immigration fraud case involving fake lawyers and judges, raising a larger question: are broken systems creating opportunities for exploitation? From national politics to local investigations, this hour challenges listeners to look beyond headlines and ask what's really happening behind the scenes.

Is Trump's State of the Union a Turning Point or Just Another Political Speech?Go Right with Peter BoykinAmerican Political Commentator | Citizen Journalist | ActivistThe Constitutionalist for LibertyWhat did Trump's State of the Union really mean for America? Was it a governing roadmap, a political strategy, or the opening move in the next election cycle?In this episode of Go Right with Peter Boykin, we go beyond the headlines and partisan reactions to examine how the speech connects federal policy, state leadership, and local elections that directly impact everyday Americans. From economic messaging and immigration policy to national security and rising living costs, this monologue explores how presidential speeches shape political narratives and influence voters from Washington, D.C. all the way down to local communities.This episode also looks ahead to the emerging political battlefield leading toward the next presidential cycle, asking whether America is witnessing policy leadership or preparation for future campaigns.In a Constitutional Republic, speeches may set the tone, but citizens ultimately decide the direction.Listen as Peter Boykin breaks down the real State of the Union and why engagement at every level of government matters now more than ever.Follow, share, and join the conversation.Watch and Listen:https://rumble.com/v76d0ho-is-trumps-state-of-the-union-a-turning-point-or-just-another-political-spee.htmlhttps://youtu.be/fRYpum5RNoghttps://www.spreaker.com/episode/is-trump-s-state-of-the-union-a-turning-point-or-just-another-political-speech--70332750Visit and follow:https://gorightnews.com/is-trumps-state-of-the-union-a-turning-point-or-just-another-political-speech/Watch more at GoRightNews.comFollow PeterBoykin.com for updates and commentarySupport independent journalism via Cash App $GoRightNews#GoRight, #GoRightNews, #PeterBoykin, #StateOfTheUnion, #TrumpSpeech, #PoliticalPodcast, #ConstitutionalistForLiberty, #PoliticalCommentary, #ElectionAnalysis, #FederalToLocal, #MidtermsMatter, #Election2028, #CitizenJournalism, #AmericanPolitics, #LibertyMovement, #NewsAnalysis, #PoliticalDiscussion, #WeThePeople, #PodcastPolitics, #CurrentEventsBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/go-right-with-peter-boykin-the-constitutionalist-for-liberty--3096608/support.

Are Politicians Fighting The Wrong Battles While Americans Fight Their Bills? In this episode of Go Right with Peter Boykin, The Constitutionalist for Liberty, we break down the growing disconnect between political headlines and real-life kitchen-table struggles. While politicians argue over symbolic issues, Americans are dealing with rising power bills, grocery costs, housing prices, insurance premiums, and everyday financial pressure that continues to reshape trust in government.This monologue explores how federal policies, state regulations, and local decisions all contribute to the cost-of-living crisis and why many voters feel ignored by both parties. From constitutional consistency to economic reality, this is a direct look at how leadership priorities impact real people and why affordability may be the defining issue shaping the future of our Constitutional Republic.Watch and Listen:https://rumble.com/v766730-are-politicians-fighting-the-wrong-battles-while-americans-fight-their-bill.html https://youtu.be/owDjjoREFIg?si=Q0iKOWsX2kF7REVZhttps://www.spreaker.com/episode/are-politicians-fighting-the-wrong-battles-while-americans-fight-their-bills--70243586Visit and follow:https://gorightnews.com/are-politicians-fighting-the-wrong-battles-while-americans-fight-their-bills/ Follow Go Right with Peter Boykin, The Constitutionalist for Liberty at GoRightNews.com.

Send a textSummaryIn this episode of Clarity from Chaos, host Dave Campbell and guest Charles Goyette delve into the manipulation of the American public by political leaders and the media. They discuss significant events like TWA Flight 800 and 9/11, exploring how these incidents were used to justify wars and political agendas. The conversation highlights the role of the military-industrial complex, the suppression of truth, and the need for accountability in politics. Goyette emphasizes the importance of recognizing the lies perpetuated by the government and the media, urging listeners to demand honesty and transparency in political discourse. TakeawaysThe American public has been manipulated by political leaders.TWA Flight 800 and 9/11 are examples of government deception.The media plays a crucial role in covering up truths.Political accountability is essential for a functioning democracy.The military-industrial complex influences U.S. foreign policy.There is a need for the electorate to demand honesty from leaders.The concept of Stockholm syndrome applies to the public's acceptance of lies.The deep state operates with little oversight or accountability.Historical events are often rewritten to fit political narratives.The public must be aware of the consequences of regime change wars.TitlesUnmasking Political DeceptionThe Truth Behind TWA Flight 800 sound bites"The media loves him.""It's a crying shame.""It's Stockholm syndrome."Chapters00:00 Introduction to Political Manipulation01:29 The Legacy of Deception: TWA Flight 800 and 9/1106:15 The Role of the Deep State in American Politics10:31 Media's Complicity in Political Lies16:13 The TWA Flight 800 Incident: A Case Study20:56 The Aftermath of 9/11 and Ongoing Cover-ups25:09 Media Credibility and Fabricated Narratives30:16 The Uniparty and Political Accountability35:48 The Cycle of War and Military Spending44:59 Empire of Lies: A Call to AwarenessSupport the show"Wherever you find yourself is exactly and precisely where God wills you to be" Support our show at the following: https://www.buzzsprout.com/2063276/support Follow us on X: @CFC30290 Follow us on Rumble: https://rumble.com/c/c-3123766 Website: https://clarityfromchaospodcast.buzzsprout.com/ Website: https://clarityfromchaos.substack.com YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCFk-DsClSJ6m0GDmAcA7AAg Thanks for listening to Clarity from Chaos

It Walks Like a Duck, But They Still Say It's Not | Is Reality Being Rewritten in This Election Cycle?What happens when the same facts produce completely different realities? What happens when perspective becomes more powerful than evidence?In this Go Right commentary, Peter Boykin breaks down one of the biggest problems shaping today's political climate: truth is no longer debated, it is selected. From federal election narratives and media framing, to state-level power struggles and local government decisions that directly affect your schools, taxes, land use, and public safety, the same pattern keeps repeating. People are not asking what is true. They are asking who benefits if it is true.As national headlines dominate the conversation, identity often filters facts before logic ever gets a chance. Candidates are framed as existential threats or flawless saviors. Policies are judged by party before principle. Even at the local level, where county commissioners and school boards make decisions that shape daily life, national tribal politics bleeds downward and distorts basic reality.This article examines how perspective without honesty becomes distortion, how loyalty without logic becomes propaganda, and how a Constitutional Republic depends on citizens willing to call things what they are. Not because it is convenient. Not because it helps one side. But because truth does not change based on preference.You do not have to like the duck. But pretending it is not a duck will never change the sound of the quack.Go Right is not about blind partisanship. It is about clarity, accountability, constitutional limits on power, and independent thinking from federal elections to state policy battles to local community decisions.Watch and Listen:https://rumble.com/v75z4o0-it-walks-like-a-duck-but-they-still-say-its-not-is-reality-being-rewritten-.htmlhttps://youtu.be/q0SS3KtFcSQ?si=I1G94E0uz0KHJgSfhttps://www.spreaker.com/episode/it-walks-like-a-duck-but-they-still-say-it-s-not-is-reality-being-rewritten-in-this-election--70147818Read more and follow the movement:https://gorightnews.com/it-walks-like-a-duck-but-they-still-say-its-not/Listen and Subscribe on Rumble, YouTube, Spotify, Apple Podcasts, Amazon Music, and Spreaker.Follow on Truth Social, X, Facebook, GAB, TikTok, and Telegram.Support independent media that holds power accountable.

Is America Still Run by the People or Just Managed by Power?GoRightNews Shared by Peter BoykinAmerican Political Commentator | Citizen Journalist | Activist | Constitutionalist for LibertyWelcome to #GoRight with Peter Boykin.America is facing a moment of deep reflection. Citizens still believe in the promise of the republic, yet trust in institutions continues to erode. In this episode and article, Peter Boykin explores whether America remains governed by the will of the people or whether power has shifted toward bureaucracies, institutions, and narrative-driven systems that shape outcomes before voters ever have a voice.This discussion challenges both sides of the political spectrum, examining how expanding systems of control, cultural division, and curated outrage impact civic responsibility, independent thinking, and the future of a Constitutional Republic. Rather than focusing on party loyalty, this commentary centers on constitutional principles, personal accountability, and the role of engaged citizens in preserving self-government.Go Right is more than politics. It is a mindset rooted in responsibility, liberty, and thoughtful participation in the democratic process.

Are Political Sharks Defining the Future of 2026 or Are We Ready to Change the Waters?As the 2026 election cycle begins to take shape, something feels different in the political waters. Candidates are positioning themselves, narratives are being sharpened, and the atmosphere is becoming more aggressive. In this #GoRight with Peter Boykin commentary, we dive into the idea of “political sharks” and what it means for our Constitutional Republic when ambition, media pressure, and internal party battles begin to overshadow principled leadership.This episode explores how political competition can either strengthen liberty or turn into a feeding frenzy that rewards division over solutions. From local government races to state leadership battles and national shutdown debates, we break down how power dynamics shift when citizens disengage and how WE THE PEOPLE can reclaim ownership of the process.This is not about eliminating competition. It is about restoring accountability, demanding substance over spectacle, and remembering that every level of government derives authority from the consent of the governed. Are political sharks defining the future of 2026, or are Americans ready to change the waters?Join Peter Boykin, The Constitutionalist For Liberty, as he delivers a powerful monologue challenging viewers to stay informed, stay engaged, and protect the principles that keep our republic strong.Watch & Listen:https://rumble.com/v75vl3m-are-political-sharks-defining-the-future-of-2026-or-are-we-ready-to-change-.htmlhttps://youtu.be/jiqdxpvX4Gohttps://www.spreaker.com/episode/are-political-sharks-defining-the-future-of-2026-or-are-we-ready-to-change-the-waters--70098035Read More at: https://gorightnews.com/a-quiet-conversation-turned-into-a-realization-are-political-sharks-already-circling-the-2026-election-waters/Follow #GoRight with Peter Boykin on Rumble, YouTube, Spotify, Apple Podcasts, Amazon Music, TikTok, Facebook, X, Truth Social, and GAB.Support independent journalism at Cash App $GoRightNews#GoRight, #PeterBoykin, #ConstitutionalistForLiberty, #Election2026, #PoliticalSharks, #WeThePeople, #ConstitutionalRepublic, #PoliticalCommentary, #AmericanPolitics, #LibertyFirst, #GoRightWithPeterBoykin, #GoRightNews, #GoRightNC, #NorthCarolinaPolitics, #UnaffiliatedVoters, #MidtermWatch, #LimitedGovernment, #PoliticalAccountability, #LocalPoliticsMatter, #PrimaryBattles, #GovernmentAccountabilityBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/goright-with-peter-boykin-gorightnews-com--3096608/support.

What begins as a documentary about racial justice in Omaha becomes something far more personal.Filmmaker Nick Beaulieu joins Outrage Overload to discuss My Omaha, a film that follows his effort to document activism in his hometown while navigating a deeply strained relationship with his terminally ill father, a staunch pro-Trump conservative.Rather than trying to change minds, My Omaha explores what it takes to stay in relationship across political, racial, and generational divides. In this conversation, Nick reflects on trust, identity, social media, and how lessons from racial justice organizing shaped the way he tried to understand his father before it was too late.This episode is about family, polarization, and what happens when the story you're telling changes you in the process.Text me your feedback and leave your contact info if you'd like a reply (this is a one-way text).

An anti-fascist spy handed American officials evidence of murderous intent from a Nazi planning server — and they declined to act.About the GuestChristopher Mathias is a journalist covering the far right, formerly a senior reporter at HuffPost, with work appearing in The Guardian, The Nation, MSNBC, Zeteo, and WNYC. His reporting has helped unmask white supremacist cops, soldiers, teachers, and politicians, and he was a Deadline Awards finalist for feature writing. He is originally from Gettysburg, Pennsylvania and lives in New York. His new book, To Catch a Fascist: The Fight to Expose the Radical Right (Atria Books), is out now.About the EpisodeDays after Jonathan Rauch's influential Atlantic essay announced he'd moved from fascism skeptic to fascism believer, Christopher Mathias joins the show to discuss his new book — a deeply reported investigation into the decentralized network of anti-fascist activists who infiltrate, monitor, and expose neo-Nazis and white supremacists operating in positions of power across America.The conversation quickly moves beyond whether Trump is a fascist to the harder questions his book raises: Who gets to decide who is exposed? What rights to privacy do members of extremist groups retain? Is unmasking community self-defense or vigilantism? And does the same logic that justifies exposing a neo-Nazi EMT extend to the tens of thousands of ICE agents now conducting raids on American streets?Timeline00:00 Introduction Jonathan Rauch's Atlantic essay and the renewed fascism debate01:10 Meet Christopher Mathias Introducing the book and the journalist behind it01:45 The Greenville Moment When Mathias first used “fascist” in a headline after watching Trump whip a crowd into chanting “Send her back”02:40 Defining the F-Word Fascism as a right-wing politics of domination; Langston Hughes recognizing it in the 1930s before the word arrived04:15 The Hard Question If MAGA is a fascist movement, are the 70-plus million who voted for Trump fascists too?05:55 The Worst of the Worst Why the book targets explicit neo-Nazis in positions of power, not ordinary Trump supporters08:15 Who Decides? Privacy, accountability, and whether everyone at Charlottesville deserves exposure10:45 Antifascist Amnesty Leave the movement and we leave you alone; return and we publish12:30 The Equivalence Trap Why Mathias rejects the idea that this is just radicals exposing radicals14:05 From Neo-Nazis to ICE How anti-fascist tactics are now used to identify masked federal agents17:15 Where Does It End? Drawing lines between violent enforcement and bureaucratic participation19:40 “Just Following Orders” Why some orders shouldn't be followed, and the occupation of Minneapolis21:30 The Battle Over Shame Competing databases, surveillance, and what America should be ashamed of23:15 The Spy Who Warned Charlottesville An infiltrator uncovers plans for violence that officials ignore26:00 Minneapolis as Model “We protect us” and a blueprint for grassroots resistance28:45 The Underground War Intelligence, counterintelligence, and the personal cost of exposure30:30 Closing Fascism as a snake eating its own tail and the urgent task of limiting the damageLinks & ReferencesMentioned in this episode:Jonathan Rauch, “Yes, It's Fascism” — The Atlantic (January 2026)To Catch a Fascist: The Fight to Expose the Radical Right by Christopher Mathias (Atria Books, February 2026)Christopher Mathias reporting archiveFollow Christopher Mathias: BlueSky | XAbout Keen On America Nobody asks more impertinent questions than the Anglo-American writer, filmmaker and Silicon Valley entrepreneur Andrew Keen.

Can faith sustain courage and openness in a polarized democracy? Former Ohio governor and presidential candidate John Kasich reflects on faith, fear, character, and public life amid deep political polarization and religious tension in America.“There is a certain comfort in knowing you have somebody who's always in your corner.”In this conversation with Evan Rosa, Kasich reflects on personal faith shaped by tragedy, the search for purpose, and why character matters more than ideology in leadership. Together they discuss religious faith in American life, his experience running in the 2016 Republican presidential primaries, voting on character over beliefs, firm political commitments, open-minded perspective taking, his vision of a life worth living, and before the end of this conversation, you'll find out his favorite Metallica song.Episode Highlights“There is a certain comfort in knowing you have somebody who's always in your corner.”“You can be firm while at the same time looking at a point of view of somebody who's diametrically opposed to you.”“I look for character. I don't look for what somebody thinks about the Book of Revelation.”“Faith informs the way I think about things, but it doesn't spell out what I'm going to do.”“If you begin to work together to solve a problem locally, it can actually create friendship.”About John KasichJohn Kasich is a former U.S. congressman, two-term governor of Ohio, and presidential candidate with more than four decades of experience in public service, media, and civic leadership. First elected to the Ohio State Senate at age 26, he later served 18 years in the U.S. House of Representatives before becoming governor in 2011. Kasich has authored six books exploring politics, faith, leadership, and civic responsibility, including his most recent, Heaven Help Us: How Faith Communities Inspire Hope, Strengthen Neighborhoods, and Build the Future. He is known for emphasizing character, dignity, and community-based solutions over ideological rigidity. Kasich frequently speaks on leadership, faith in public life, and democratic renewal, and continues to engage across political and cultural divides in pursuit of common purpose.

In part two of Dan's conversation with political scientist Yascha Mounk, the two discuss identity politics, its growing influence on the American left, and the danger this trend poses to pluralistic societies.They examine why identity politics is so seductive, how it reshapes government, schools, and civic  institutions, and why Mounk believes it ultimately undermines both individuality and democratic cohesion. The conversation also turns inward, exploring Jewish identity: where it strengthens pluralism, where it becomes politicized, and why Jews, in particular, should be cautious about abandoning universal principles for group-based power.In this episode...- Why liberalism today feels unrecognizable- What identity politics is and why it's so appealing- How universalism gave way to group-based politics- When inclusion turns into segregation- Jewish identity and the limits of identity-based politics- Why free speech remains essential for a pluralistic democracyFrom the episode:- Listen to Yascha's podcast The Good Fight- Subscribe to Persuasion- Purchase Yascha's book, The Identity TrapMore Ark Media:Want to join Ark Media?

Is Antizionism the new common denominator of the left? Political scientist Yascha Mounk, founder of Persuasion and author of The Identity Trap, joins Dan to discuss whether the rise of Zohran Mamdani is indicative of a growing connection between socialist causes and hostility towards Jews. Drawing on his personal history, Mounk explains the different iterations of Antisemitism on the left and discusses with Dan whether it is categorically different from what we're increasingly seeing on the American right.The conversation went longer than normal, so stay tuned for part 2 in which Dan and Yascha discuss how identity politics consumed America and Jews should be wary of falling into the same trap.In this episode...- Yascha's political upbringing- The history of Antizionism on the left - What would Mamdani compromise on?- Is the IHRA's definition of Antisemitism dangerous to free speech? - The Western left's silence on repression in IranThis episode was sponsored by Maimonides Fund: Sign up for the SAPIR journal at sapirjournal.org/CallMeBackFrom the episode:- Listen to Yascha's podcast The Good Fight- Subscribe to Persuasion- Purchase Yascha's book, The Identity TrapMore Ark Media:Want to join Ark Media?

Is America really on the brink — or is something deeper happening beneath the headlines?In this episode of The Right Side with Doug Billings, Doug breaks down the difference between panic and pressure, and why rising anxiety is often a sign of shifting legitimacy, not societal collapse. Drawing from American history and constitutional design, this episode explores how authority, power, and consent interact when institutions escalate and narratives intensify.You'll hear a strategic analysis of why “inevitability” language appears during periods of political and global realignment, how media urgency shapes public perception, and why citizen engagement and elections function as the constitutional pressure valves of a republic.This is a calm, educational look at accountability, sovereignty, and civic responsibility — and what history suggests comes next when a nation reassesses who truly holds power.Support the show

Michael Smerconish breaks down the data showing a record 45% of Americans reject both major parties.

The year is 1992, the film is Bob Roberts... a political mockumentary satire. The director, first-time filmmaker (and star) Tim Robbins. And it's also the first film role for a lovable gent named Jack Black. We dig into the parallels between Bob Roberts and present day American politics and consider the right wing folk songs that were, at one point, comedic in their absurdity.

Jeff is CEO of American Promise, a non-partisan organization dedicated to passing the For Our Freedom amendment to the Constitution, which would differentiate between people and corporations, and allow states to pass their own campaign finance laws. In this episode, he breaks down the history of campaign finance laws, key moments, such as the Citizens United Case, that have brought us to where we are now, and the steps his team have already taken to help add another amendment to the US Constitution.   If you want to sign the Citizen Pledge or just learn more about American Promise, make sure to check out AmericanPromise.net.   This episode was edited by Ben Sawyer.    

In just a few days, New York City, the world's business capital, will have a new mayor, Zoran Momdani. The self-described democratic socialist platform includes free buses, universal childcare, and city-run grocery stores. Prominent Democrats hesitated to support Momdany in New York City's mayoral race. Since his victory, Republicans nationwide have been raising red flags about his policies.

FOX Business' Lydia Hu speaks with Dr. Eric Patterson, the President and CEO of the Victims of Communism Memorial Foundation in Washington, D.C., to discuss his organization, the dangers of ‘class warfare' rhetoric and policies, and why he fears Mamdani's popularity could signal a shift in American politics.
