1. Investigation of Chinese-Linked Activist Financier Neville Roy Singham Ted Cruz discusses a federal investigation into Neville Roy Singham, a wealthy businessman with alleged ties to the Chinese Communist Party (CCP). The investigation reportedly involves potential violations of: The Foreign Agents Registration Act (FARA) Federal tax laws Singham is accused of funding left-wing organizations, including: The People's Forum Code Pink Cruz argues that money from foreign-linked sources may be supporting: Anti-Israel campus protests Anti-capitalist activism Other progressive political movements The discussion highlights concerns about foreign influence campaigns designed to shape U.S. public opinion and technology policy. Singham denies working for or taking orders from the Chinese government. 2. White House Discussion on Artificial Intelligence (AI) Cruz describes attending a meeting in the Oval Office with: President Trump Senator Marsha Blackburn Administration officials and advisors The meeting focused on AI regulation and policy. Blackburn promoted several AI-related bills, including: Child online safety measures (KOSA) App-store age verification requirements The “No Fakes” Act addressing AI-generated fake voices and images Cruz expressed support for parts of the proposals but questioned whether they had enough political support to become law. He argued that: AI legislation should protect consumers and children. Regulations should not unintentionally restrict free speech. The U.S. must remain competitive with China in AI development. The conversation also addressed concerns over deepfakes and AI-generated political misinformation. 3. Reading and Education Reform Legislation Cruz discusses a bipartisan education bill focused on improving reading outcomes among American students. He cites statistics showing declining reading proficiency among students nationwide. The bill would require states receiving certain federal literacy funds to use reading methods proven effective through research. The discussion contrasts: Phonics-based instruction ("science of reading") Three-cueing methods, which Cruz argues are less effective Examples highlighted include: Mississippi's dramatic improvement in reading scores after adopting phonics-focused instruction ("Mississippi Miracle") Similar gains in Alabama and Louisiana The legislation was introduced jointly with Democratic Senator Brian Schatz of Hawaii. Cruz presents the bill as a bipartisan effort to improve literacy and educational outcomes. The discussion outlines the legislative process needed for the bill to advance through Congress.

Ordained minister, Dr. Dennis Hall, examines the underlying cause of the majority of US adults having an unfavorable view of Israel, especially the fact that eight in 10 Democrats and Democratic leaning independents having a negative view of Israel. These anti-Israel views are also held by nonreligious secular US Jews. These views contribute to the growing anti-Semitism in the US. Dr. Hall discusses why Israel is strategically important to the US politically and militarily. It is pointed out that there is no greater voice in the anti-Israel, anti-sematic rhetoric then the popular podcaster Tucker Carlson. Dr. Hall reviews a litany of misinformation being promulgated in the Tucker Carlson podcasts. He points out how voices like Tucker Carlson are part of a spiritual war to legitimatize Israel. Dr. Hall uses Scripture to support the idea that the Jewish people still have the promises that God made to them in the Old Testament covenants. The podcast concludes by pointing out that Israel is an important ally of the United States and Jews continue to be God's chosen people.

Has anti-Israel activism become something much bigger than campus protests? In this special conversation from the CUFI Summit in Washington, D.C., Fleur Hassan-Nahum is joined by leading Jewish and Christian voices to expose how foreign influence and years of institutional infiltration have transformed universities, politics, media and even medicine. You'll learn why the alliance between Christians and Israel is growing stronger despite mounting pressure and why the battle against antisemitism is now being fought far beyond the Middle East.

For decades, but particularly over the last three years, anti-Israel activists have repeatedly sought to hijack indigenous language and terms in their attempt to demonize the Jewish State. From accusations like "colonization," these activists have turned truth on its head, and received widespread sympathetic coverage from the news media as a result.But that doesn't mean there is any merit to their claims. One of their loudest opponents has been the Honourable Harry LaForme, a trailblazing Indigenous judge in Canada who has served as Chair of the Royal Commission on Aboriginal Land Claims, among many other achievements.
Welcome to The Times of Israel's Daily Briefing, your 20-minute audio update on what's happening in Israel, the Middle East and the Jewish world. US reporter Luke Tress joins host Jessica Steinberg for today's episode. As far-left, anti-Israel candidate Melat Kiros wins in the Colorado primaries, Tress discusses the emerging pattern of far-left candidates running on Israel issues and winning, first in New York and now in Colorado. Tress also reviews last week’s New York primary winners, comparing Darialia Avila Chevalier with Kiros, both young doctoral students without legislative experience who beat long-term Democratic incumbents, creating a new model of outsiders sweeping the primaries. Along similar lines, Tress reports on a video on social media that shows Scott Weiner, a left-wing Jewish and openly gay legislator from the San Francisco area who is a longtime supporter of the transgender community, being run out of a transgender march in the city. Tress notes the wide swath of 700 rabbis who condemned New York Mayor Zohran Mamdani's comments about AIPAC, when he called the lobbying group "monsters," including antisemitic tropes. Finally, Tress discusses a New York City council law meant to protect the schools from protests as part of a broader plan to combat antisemitism, but was narrowed and watered down by a Mamdani veto.

Is the anti-Israel alliance finally starting to crack? This week's episode of "The Quad" explores three major developments that could reshape the Middle East: Lebanon's unprecedented move toward distancing itself from Hezbollah, Iran's increasingly aggressive actions in the Strait of Hormuz and the growing anti-Hamas protests erupting inside Gaza. You'll learn why these stories may be more connected than they appear, what they reveal about shifting regional alliances and whether these dramatic changes signal the beginning of lasting peace or the opening chapter of an even more dangerous conflict.
It's Monday, June 29th, 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 Hungarian homosexual pride march draws 100,000 On June 27th, at least 100,000 Hungarians gathered in 100-degree heat in Budapest to celebrate their 31st annual Homosexual Pride march, reports the Associated Press. It's the first such event since conservative Prime Minister Viktor Orbán was defeated in the April election. To his credit, Orban had prohibited the portrayal or "promotion" of homosexuality and gender transition to minors in schools and media aimed at children. Plus, the Hungarian Parliament amended the civil registry law so that official documents permanently record a person's "sex at birth" which ensures that citizens cannot legally pretend to be the opposite sex. And the Parliament limited adoption to married heterosexual couples. Hungary does not allow homosexual marriage. Sadly, under new leadership, all of that may change. Leviticus 18:22 says, “Do not have sexual relations with a man as one does with a woman; that is detestable.” Venezuelan death toll skyrocketed to 1,430 people Tragically, the death toll in those two major Venezuelan earthquakes last Wednesday has skyrocketed from 164 to 1,430 as of June 27th, reports NBC News. Plus, there are an astounding 51,000 people missing. According to the BBC, emergency teams are still searching for people trapped in buildings that collapsed in the earthquakes. Antoan Marín said, "Rescue workers are overwhelmed. They are pulling people out with their bare hands.” Over 2,000 rescue units from 21 international groups are on the ground in Venezuela or en route. Samaritan's Purse airlifted an Emergency Hospital to Venezuela On Saturday, the Samaritan's Purse cargo plane airlifted life-saving supplies, including an Emergency Field Hospital, to Venezuela. Hospitals in the hardest hit areas were already strained before the earthquakes. Now, many are damaged and overwhelmed with people in desperate need of care. The Samaritan's Purse Emergency Field Hospital is capable of treating more than 100 people each day. It will be equipped with multiple operating rooms, a critical care unit, pharmacy, and laboratory. The ministry has also airlifted emergency shelter material, solar lights, and blankets to provide relief to families who are suffering. Franklin Graham, the president of Samaritan's Purse, said, “Roads have been split wide open and hundreds of buildings have collapsed. People are living on the streets—terrified of aftershocks. It's heartbreaking to see the suffering and loss. We love the people of this country, and we want to do all that we can to help in Jesus' Name.” Send a much-needed gift to help equip Samaritan's Purse in their rescue efforts in Venezuela through a special link in our transcript today at www.TheWorldview.com. 1 John 3:17 says, “If anyone has material possessions and sees a brother or sister in need but has no pity on them, how can the love of God be in that person?” Three Democratic Socialists win in New York Three Democratic Socialists of America candidates beat establishment Democrats in New York City's June 23rd primary, winning with the backing from the city's democratic socialist mayor, Zohran Mamdani, reports USA Today. Claire Valdez and Darializa Avila Chevalier won in the 7th and 13th Congressional Districts for the U.S. House. Aber Kawas won in New York State Senate District 12. Chevalier and Valdez vowed to abolish Immigration and Customs Enforcement. And Chevalier once said, “I forgot to get napkins so I just wiped my hand on the American flag behind me." Plus, she wants to close down prisons and abolish the police. In 2017, Kawas, a Muslim woman, told a panel that the 9/11 attacks were America's fault, the result of "capitalism and racism and White supremacy ... and Islamophobia." Democrat Senator John Fetterman of Pennsylvania, said this on social media: "Anti-Israel. Anti-America. Anti-Western Civilization. Why am I the only Democrat in the U.S. Senate that refuses to excuse this or defend any of those self-identified communists?" And Republican Congressman Randy Fine of Florida sounded off as well. FINE: “It's a sad day for America. I mean, these people are bad people. We've got to be worried about the future of the country. “The Democrats are no longer the loyal opposition. In many cases, they are the enemy of the country. And I don't think it's hyperbole to say that. These are people who hate America and who seek its destruction.” Texas considers removing American Revolution from mandated history lessons The Texas State Board of Education is proposing changes to mandated school curriculum for the 5.5 million Texas students that would remove lessons about the American Revolution and would marginalize our Founding Fathers, reports Christian talk show host Todd Starnes. Conservatives are alleging that three Republicans joined Democrats to push through radical changes recommended by the Council on American Islamic Relations. Julie Pickren, a conservative Republican on the Texas Board of Education, exposed the group behind these radical changes. PICKREN: “About nine months ago, a foreign terrorist organization called the Council on American-Islamic Relations, which the FBI says is the face of the Muslim Brotherhood in America, they got involved in this process. And they got involved pretty heavily. They started showing up at all of our meetings and testifying, sending a lot of emails, making a lot of phone calls and text messages.” The Texas School Board specifically objected to the stories of Valley Forge as well as the battles of Lexington and Bunker Hill. Instead, the board wanted to provide lessons on modern-day Americans like Oprah Winfrey rather than our first president George Washington. References to the Black Robed Regiment were also removed. That regiment was comprised of a group of Protestant pastors who supported and fought for the American Revolution. Julie Pikren revealed that the three liberal Republicans who sided with the radical Muslim re-write of American history were Pam Little, Will Hickman, and Keven Ellis. Together with the five Democrats, they formed an 8-person majority voting bloc. Mrs. Pikren explained the motivation of the Muslim lobbyist group. PIKREN: “The terrorists, they don't want U.S. history taught. They don't want founding documents taught. They don't want presidents and founding fathers taught. And it's very sad that these Republicans are aligning with the mandate from a terrorist organization and joining the Democrats in passing this.” Send a polite, but firm short email to these three liberal Republicans on the Texas Board of Education to let them know your objections. pam.little@sboe.texas.gov, will.hickman@tea.texas.gov, ellisSBOE@gmail.com You can find their email addresses in our transcript today at www.TheWorldview.com. Julian the Apostate acknowledged Christ's victory over paganism And finally, 1,663 years ago, on June 26th A.D. 363, Roman Emperor Julian the Apostate died on the battlefield in modern-day Iraq. As his name suggests, he spent his life seeking to restore paganism in the Roman Empire and undo Christian reforms brought by Emperor Constantine the Great. However, in his dying words, Julian admitted, “Thou hast won, O Galilean,” referencing Jesus Christ. These words represented the victory of Christ over Caesar in the first 300 years of history since the Resurrection.

Matt Bennett — co-founder and executive vice president of the center-left think tank Third Way — joins the Chuck Toddcast to offer a pragmatist's anxious assessment of what the Mamdani-led DSA surge in New York actually means for the future of the Democratic Party. Bennett's central worry is whether the New York primaries represent a genuine "Tea Party moment" for the left — which he frankly admits would be scary for Democrats — though he takes some comfort in the fact that the three districts Mamdani candidates won are extraordinarily deep blue, and argues the national Democratic electorate simply isn't as extreme as the Republican base, making the party much harder to hijack than the GOP was. Bennett draws a crucial distinction in how these races were actually won: Mamdani himself won on affordability, but many of his endorsees won on Israel, where anti-Israel sentiment has become the number-one voting issue for New York progressives. He's careful but direct on the antisemitism question — not all of the far-left are antisemites, he says, but they are increasingly making common cause with them, pointing to the antisemitic abuse Dan Goldman faced during his campaign — and argues that while antisemitism won't ultimately eat the Democratic Party, it absolutely needs to be contained. Bennett is sharply critical of the self-inflicted wounds of progressive governance (decriminalizing shoplifting was a disaster, he says), and argues the broader problem is that left-coded "performative nonsense" fundamentally changed how voters see the party — that the country rejected both Biden's progressive overreach and the left's woke cultural politics, and that Biden's real mistake was bragging he was the most progressive president since FDR. The conversation broadens into a rich strategic discussion about 2028 and the soul of the party. Bennett argues that parties are ultimately defined by their nominee, so Democrats will be fine if they simply get that choice right, and frames the Michigan Senate primary — where he's skeptical Abdul El-Sayed can beat Mike Rogers — as a fascinating case study in the tension between charisma and electability. He makes the case that charisma genuinely matters (Mamdani and El-Sayed have it), that "boring doesn't work" in modern politics, and that the biggest open question for 2028 is whether a center-left candidate can successfully run as a genuine change agent — because the status quo is extremely broken, and no one can win by running to preserve it. Bennett offers some encouraging signs for his wing of the party: Iowa is drifting back toward Democrats, James Talarico is a genuinely strong candidate in Texas, and candidate quality still matters enormously. He and Chuck dig into why Palestine became the defining progressive cause rather than the plight of the Uighurs, how social media and the collapse of civics education have sealed people into ideological bubbles, and why the word "socialism" means Norway to some voters and Cuba to others. Bennett argues that Netanyahu has personally turned off a generation of young Americans to Israel — and that if Israelis remove him, it could serve as a genuine relief valve for Democrats — and closes with a series of pointed predictions: Schumer should make clear soon that he won't run for leader again, Warren and Murphy are too far-left-coded to unify the party, both wings could actually rally around Brian Schatz as leader, and the Mamdani story, for all the panic it's generated, is ultimately a minor earthquake rather than a major fracture.

Chuck Todd opens with a programming note—the ToddCast moves to a Monday/Thursday schedule for July and August—before digging into the fallout from Zohran Mamdani-endorsed candidates sweeping New York's primaries. Chuck unpacks who powered the wins (younger, white progressives), argues that Mamdani's affordability focus rather than his endorsements was the real galvanizing force, and examines how Israel has become a litmus test on a left that, like MAGA, increasingly has little patience for the pluralism Chuck calls the heart of the American experiment—warning that when every issue becomes a litmus test, disagreement turns into something punishable. He weighs whether this is a singular New York moment or a broader realignment in which two uncompromising factions come to dominate both parties, with Abdul El-Sayed's Michigan Senate bid shaping up as the next big test. From there, Chuck turns to Trump blowing a chance to show voters he cares about affordability by refusing to sign a housing bill that already has veto-proof majorities—and how the president keeps making it nearly impossible for the GOP to govern heading into a brutal midterm stretch he's brought on himself. Finally, an alarming look at Pete Hegseth's overt politicization of the military: the firing of respected leaders like Chris Donahue, purges that appear to target officers for their race, gender, what they know, or their willingness to push back on illegal orders, the removal of the JAGs and the Pentagon press corps, and why Chuck argues that whoever Hegseth wants out may be exactly who the country needs leading it next. Then, Matt Bennett — co-founder and executive vice president of the center-left think tank Third Way — joins the Chuck Toddcast to offer a pragmatist's anxious assessment of what the Mamdani-led DSA surge in New York actually means for the future of the Democratic Party. Bennett's central worry is whether the New York primaries represent a genuine "Tea Party moment" for the left — which he frankly admits would be scary for Democrats — though he takes some comfort in the fact that the three districts Mamdani candidates won are extraordinarily deep blue, and argues the national Democratic electorate simply isn't as extreme as the Republican base, making the party much harder to hijack than the GOP was.

- The episode opens with the shockwaves from New York's Democratic results, framing them as a full takeover by Zoran Mamdani-aligned socialists, Islamists, and anti-Israel radicals. - Dan Goldman's crushing loss becomes a warning sign for the broader party, with the show arguing that even a hard-left incumbent now gets wiped out if he is seen as too supportive of Israel. - A major focus falls on the new class of winners, especially Derya Lisa Chevalier, who is portrayed as an openly anti-American, anti-police, anti-prison extremist now headed to Congress. - The show argues that anti-Semitism is no longer a fringe undercurrent but a central litmus test in major blue-city Democratic politics, from campaign rhetoric to office vandalism to election outcomes. - Graham Platner is hammered again as a toxic Democratic standard-bearer, with the episode spotlighting another grotesque old post as proof that Maine Democrats are still standing behind a candidate the show portrays as politically radioactive and morally depraved.

The Future of the Democratic Party in Colorado This episode of the Dan Kaplis Show is a must-listen for anyone interested in the current state of politics in Colorado. The speaker discusses the alarming trend of the Democratic Party drifting further and further to the left, with candidates like Melat Kiros, a congressional hopeful, openly expressing anti-Semitic views and blaming the US for the 9/11 attacks. This is not an isolated incident, but rather a symptom of a larger problem within the party. The conversation delves into the implications of this shift and how it could potentially benefit the Republican Party in Colorado. The speaker argues that as the Democratic Party becomes increasingly radical, it will drive away moderate voters and create an opening for the GOP to regain statewide offices. This is not a prediction, but a reality that's already playing out in the state's legislative elections. The speaker also touches on the upcoming primary election in Colorado, where Victor Marx is running for governor. Despite his impressive fundraising efforts, the campaign seems to be taking a backseat, which could impact his chances of winning. The speaker shares their analysis of the situation and why they believe Barb Kirkmeyer is likely to emerge as the nominee. If you're interested in staying informed about the latest developments in Colorado politics, tune in to this episode to hear the speaker's insightful analysis and predictions.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

- The episode opens with a warning that New York's Democratic races are no longer fringe contests, but a live test of how far socialist and openly anti-Israel politics can move into Congress. - Several New York candidates are framed as outright radicals, with the show stressing support for abolishing ICE, rejecting deportations, seizing the means of production, and pushing anti-police, anti-border politics into the mainstream. - Dan Goldman's race becomes a flashpoint for rising anti-Semitism, with the episode arguing that even a reliable liberal can become a target simply for being Jewish in today's Democratic coalition. - The show ties the far-left surge to a broader culture of scapegoating Israel and Jews, calling out candidates and activists who praise Hamas, smear Israel as genocidal, and turn anti-Jewish hostility into a political litmus test. - Chicago's Juneteenth weekend becomes the closing warning sign, with 40 people shot and 8 killed while city leadership responds by focusing on a “trans femicide” emergency instead of the gang violence tearing through the streets.

Josh Szeps joins us for a wide-ranging conversation about Israel, Gaza, antisemitism, Zionism, Jewish identity and why the debate has become so exhausting and distorted. We talk about whether Jews outside Israel are being forced to answer for the Israeli government, what anti-Zionism really means, the failure of the peace process, Netanyahu, Gaza, drones, Palestinian leadership, the pressure to “circle the wagons,” and whether it is possible to criticize Israel without giving ammunition to people who hate Jews. Josh Szeps hosts one of the biggest shows on Substack, Uncomfortable Conversations with Josh Szeps, where he has funny, bullshit-free conversations with people like Sam Harris, Jimmy Carr, Bari Weiss and Mark Normand about subjects that the mainstream media fails to discuss honestly.

- Thomas Massie gets routed in Kentucky after drifting from reliable conservative votes into anti-Israel fixation, Democrat-aligned outrage, and open conflict with Trump. - Maine's Democratic nominee becomes an even bigger liability as new posts surface, deepening the case that the party is stuck defending a candidate who looks wildly unfit for office. - John Cornyn's Senate hopes take a direct hit as Trump backs Ken Paxton, turning the Texas race into another purge of old-guard Republicans who broke with the movement. - Cambridge manages to turn gunshot detection into a racism debate, voting to ban ShotSpotter just days after a random gunman terrorizes the city in broad daylight. - The broader theme is that the left keeps normalizing extremes — from anti-Zionist prison fantasies to media excuses for cultural collapse — while voters keep rewarding the side that looks tougher and more coherent.

Is America facing more than just political and cultural division? A growing number of Christians believe a deeper spiritual battle is unfolding across the nation, one that reaches far beyond headlines and politics. From gender ideology and public school indoctrination to parental rights, Supreme Court rulings, and the growing tension between biblical truth and modern culture, these conversations are striking a nerve with families who feel like the moral foundation of society is rapidly shifting. Referencing Romans 1 alongside ancient figures like Baal, Molech, and Ashtaroth, we explore whether the same spiritual patterns that influenced past civilizations are resurfacing in modern society through confusion, rebellion, and the rejection of God's design.Spiritual warfare, biblical prophecy, Christian freedom, and the future of the next generation all collide. We draw connections between ancient pagan worship and modern cultural movements. You need to stay spiritually alert in a time marked by deception, identity confusion, and increasing hostility toward biblical values. It's time to stand firm and proclaim the gospel.--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Welcome to What Matters Now, a weekly podcast exploring one key issue currently shaping Israel and the Jewish World. This week, founding editor David Horovitz speaks with CEO of the British Board of Deputies Michael Wegier. Wegier has been the CEO of the Board, the umbrella organization representing Anglo-Jewry, for the past five years -- an increasingly fraught period, especially since October 7, 2023. Anti-Israel demonstrators routinely march through central London, Palestine Action activists have attacked Israeli targets, a cultural boycott of Israel has picked up steam... We discuss how things have changed for Britain's Jews, especially amid a stream of antisemitic attacks, including deadly terrorism at a Manchester synagogue last Yom Kippur and the stabbing of two Jewish men in northwest London's Golders Green neighborhood last month. Wegier talks about who is behind the violence, how the police are facing up to it, and the role of Keir Starmer's Labour government. We also look more widely at British politics from a Jewish context, with this month's local elections marked by the dramatic rise of the hard-right UK Reform party, and unprecedented gains by a Green Party engulfed in antisemitism scandals, under a Jewish leader who made vicious criticism of Israel a centerpiece of the campaign. Finally, we look at the relationship between Anglo-Jewry and Israel, and the degree to which what Wegier describes as the "anxiety" in the community about day-to-day life is prompting thoughts of potential emigration to Israel. So this week, we ask Michael Wegier, what matters now? What Matters Now podcasts are available for download on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, YouTube or wherever you get your podcasts. This episode was produced by Yitzchak Ledee.

National Review Senior Editor Charles C.W. Cooke, who also hosts the Charles C.W. Cooke Podcast, fills in for Jim on Wednesday's 3 Martini Lunch. Join Charlie and Greg as they dig into the heinous allegations against Israel by New York Times columnist Nicholas Kristoff, Biden Homeland Security Sec. Alejandro Mayorkas regretting not acting sooner to secure the border, California Democrat Xavier Becerra's pathetic plea for only a few tough questions from the media, and more.First, Charlie and Greg slam Kristof's column accusing Israel of horrific abuses against Palestinian prisoners, including claims involving trained dogs. They contrast those allegations with newly detailed reports documenting the brutal atrocities committed by Hamas during the October 7, 2023 terrorist attacks on Israel.Next, they roll their eyes as former DHS Sec. Mayorkas admits the Biden administration should have acted sooner to control the border. But he still ultimately blames Congress and says he is very proud of the executive orders Biden issued in the summer of 2024 to reduce the chaos. Charlie shreds Mayorkas' argument and explains how the border crisis was intentional.Then, they laugh at California gubernatorial candidate Xavier Becerra asking a reporter to limit the number of difficult questions. Charlie explains why the moment perfectly captures the modern left's expectations of media coverage.Finally, they react to the winner of the Democratic U.S. Senate primary in Nebraska planning to drop out of the race and endorse the "independent" candidate.Please visit our great sponsors:QuoMoney is on the line.

Noam Dworman is joined by Professor Gerald Steinberg. Steinberg breaks down the hidden world of NGOs—what they are, how they gained massive global influence and why he believes many have drifted far from their original mission. From organizations like Amnesty International and Human Rights Watch to their role at the United Nations, Steinberg argues that these groups now act as powerful political players shaping narratives around conflicts like Israel–Palestine. Gerald Steinberg is founder and president of NGO Monitor and Professor at Bar Ilan University. His research focuses on Middle East diplomacy and Israeli security, and the politics of human rights and non-governmental organizations (NGOs). Prestigious grants and prizes include Israel Science Foundation, Bonei Zion Prize (2017) and the Bernard Lewis Prize in 2025. https://x.com/GeraldNGOM

Christopher J. Scalia of the American Enterprise Institute is in for Jim Geraghty on the Friday 3 Martini Lunch. Today, Chris and Greg discuss allegations that the media could have reported on the Swalwell scandal as early as 2019, the "Michigan Mamdani: surging in the Michigan U.S. Senate race, and signs that Yale University may finally realize it lost its way.First, Chris and Greg react to a longtime Democratic activist claiming Politico was preparing a 2019 report on Eric Swalwell's alleged sexual misconduct while he was running for president. But after Swalwell dropped out of the race, the story was never published, even though he remained in Congress. Next, they shudder as hostility towards Israel is now clearly the popular and safest position among Democrats. Abdul El-Sayed, dubbed the Michigan Mamdani, is now tied for the lead in the Michigan Democratic U.S. Senate primary. They also note that every Democratic senator rumored to be considering a presidential run just voted against military aid to Israel. Then, Chris welcomes a new report from a special Yale University commission outlining where the school has gone wrong on admissions, academics, free speech, soaring tuition costs and more. They hope it marks the beginning of a return to sanity in higher education, but will actions follow the words?Finally, Chris observes another small but important return to normalcy: some familiar-looking uniforms for the team formerly known as the Washington Redskins.Please visit our great sponsors:Prioritize restorative sleep with a mattress made just for you from Brooklyn Bedding—go to https://BrooklynBedding.com and use promo code 3ML for 30% off sitewide.When life feels overwhelming, find your balance again with BetterHelp—sign up at https://BetterHelp.com/3ML to get 10% off.xSchedule a free gold strategy session with Noble Gold.
