Podcast appearances and mentions of Benito Mussolini

The Toscanini Conspiracy – Arturo Toscanini, Fascism, and the Italian Resistance with Filippo IannaroneIn this episode of the Explaining History Podcast, we are joined by Italian author Filippo Iannarone to discuss his acclaimed crime novel, The Toscanini Conspiracy – a story that weaves together a real‑life cold case, the anti‑fascist resistance of conductor Arturo Toscanini, and the author's own family history of heroic opposition to Mussolini and Hitler.The novel began with a chance encounter. While travelling in Val d'Orcia, Filippo discovered a small inn called Locanda Toscanini and asked the host why it bore the name of the legendary conductor. The answer opened a door to a forgotten story: the murder of Dr. Rinaldi, a physician and friend of Toscanini, in 1935 – the same year Mussolini invaded Ethiopia. The case was never solved. But as Filippo dug through newspaper archives and court documents, he found that it exposed a hidden world of anti‑fascist activity in a small Tuscan village.That village became a gathering place for intellectuals, artists, and dissidents – including the explorer Umberto Nobile, fashion designer Salvatore Ferragamo, and Anita Garibaldi – all resisting the tightening grip of Mussolini's regime. At the centre of it all was Arturo Toscanini, the most famous conductor in the world, who had already been beaten by fascist thugs for refusing to play the regime's anthem. Later, he would reject a personal invitation from Adolf Hitler to conduct at Bayreuth – a decision that carried immense symbolic weight.But Filippo's story is also deeply personal. His uncle, Major General Michele Iannarone, was a hero of the Italian Resistance. A monarchist officer who served on the Eastern Front and developed contacts with German officers opposed to Hitler, he became one of the commanders of Rome's clandestine military resistance after the fall of Mussolini in July 1943. When Rome was occupied by the Nazis, his network of thousands of partisans coordinated with the Allies, saved Jewish families, and kept the German army occupied until the Americans arrived.We discuss the brutal civil war that raged in Italy from 1943 until well after the war's end, the forgotten role of monarchist partisans, the trauma of the "years of lead" in the 1970s, and the uncomfortable continuities between fascism and today's far‑right movements across Europe and America. Filippo also reflects on what Toscanini would make of our current moment – and why telling these stories matters more than ever.Topics covered:The real‑life cold case that inspired the novelArturo Toscanini's anti‑fascist activismThe 1935 Italian invasion of Ethiopia and its domestic consequencesThe alternative community of dissidents in Spiazza, TuscanyMajor General Michele Iannarone and the monarchist partisansThe military clandestine front in occupied RomeThe Via Rasella bombing and the Ardeatine massacreItaly's post‑war civil war and the "years of lead"The erasure of monarchist partisans from official historyParallels between 1930s Italy and today's far‑right movementsFilippo Iannarone's The Toscanini Conspiracy is available now in English.

¿Qué tiene que ver el Vaticano, las Guerras Mundiales y la Inteligencia Artificial?

El escritor liberal analiza el futuro de la región y desmonta los mitos totalitarios en su nueva obra, ‘Nazi-Comunismo'. Iberoamérica vive uno de sus momentos políticos más intensos y polarizados de las últimas décadas. Presidentes que generan pasiones globales, batallas ideológicas sin cuartel y países que oscilan entre el colapso y la transformación radical. Además, se suman las recientes elecciones en Colombia y en Perú, así como el fenómeno que causa el presidente argentino, Javier Milei. Esta semana, en Economía para Quedarte sin Amigos, contamos con Axel Kaiser, escritor, pensador liberal, abogado, profesor universitario y presidente de la Fundación para el Progreso de Chile, para analizar el mapa político del continente y presentar su libro Nazi-comunismo, publicado por Editorial Deusto, en el que defiende que nazismo y comunismo son dos caras de la misma moneda. Apoyándose en fuentes primarias, muchas de ellas solo disponibles en alemán, Kaiser argumenta que el nazismo y el marxismo-leninismo comparten cinco elementos esenciales. "La gente no va a poder creer cómo la identidad ideológica criminal del marxismo es la misma que tiene el nazismo", señala Kaiser, que también recuerda que los propios Mises y Hayek ya advirtieron de ello. Que el mismo Mussolini llevara una medalla de Karl Marx en el bolsillo durante años, o que Hitler tomara ideas directamente de Marx para incorporarlas a su matriz ideológica, son datos que el libro documenta con precisión y que explican por qué la descalificación fácil de "facho" sigue siendo una herramienta para cerrar debates.Música Esta semana, la protagonista de nuestra selección musical es el grupo hispano-argentino Los Rodríguez. Y estos son los temas que hemos escuchado: "Sin Documentos" "Para No Olvidar" "Mucho Mejor" "Dulce Condena"

Il ddl Valditara è stato approvato e arrivano le limitazioni ai progetti dedicati alla sessualità e all'affettività nelle scuole, dall'infanzia alle superiori. Come potrebbe essere un curriculum verticale di educazione affettiva e sessuo-relazionale, dalla scuola dell'infanzia fino alla scuola secondaria di secondo grado? Nella puntata di oggi ne parliamo con quattro professioniste che collaborano con il Centro per la Famiglia – Consultorio Familiare Diocesano di Brescia. Si tratta di Laura Piapi, Silvia Baronio, Anna Busi e Clio Gregori. Prima di questo approfondimento, alcune delle notizie più interessanti della settimana: dal futuro del centro sportivo Rigamonti alla fiera dell'editoria Liber che ospita (accanto ai loghi della Provincia e del sistema bibliotecario Brescia Est) case editrici come Passaggio Al Bosco, che pubblica agiografie di Mussolini e testi nazifascisti.

Joel Kotkin disputes the label of "fascist" for the MAGA movement, noting it lacks the youth-driven, paramilitary organization characteristic of movements led by Mussolini or Hitler. He describes MAGA as a chaotic coalition of various interest groups held together by Donald Trump's personality. Kotkin emphasizes that using the term as a political slur ruins the possibility of necessary civil discourse. (8)1936

SCHEDULE JOHN BATCHELOR SHOW, 6-10-26.Greg Scarlatoiu analyzes Xi Jinping's visit to Pyongyang, noting that Kim Jong-un now views himself as a strategic equal to Xi and Putin. Despite sanctions, North Korea's economy shows a facade of growth fueled by billions made exporting artillery and special forces to Russia. Kim is also modernizing his security apparatus into a structure similar to Russia's FSB. (1)Professor Jim Holmes discusses the naval balance between the U.S. and China, suggesting the PLA Navy aims for six aircraft carriers to project power in the Western Pacific and Indian Ocean. While China has made strides in naval aviation without the heavy losses the U.S. historically endured, Holmes believes they still lag behind in technological sophistication and human tactical proficiency. (2)Victoria Coates highlights Taiwan's indispensable role in the global AI revolution through TSMC's high-end chip production, which the U.S. and China currently cannot replicate. She emphasizes that Taiwan's engineering "super workers" are a state secret. Coates also discusses the political friction in Washington regarding arms sales and the need for Taiwan to increase its own defense spending. (3)Victoria Coates addresses the Pentagon's decision to list major Chinese companies like BYD and Alibaba as security risks due to their military ties. She argues for clear country-of-origin labeling on products to inform American consumers. Furthermore, Coates criticizes the Biden administration for prioritizing climate goals over addressing China's use of forced labor in the solar panel supply chain. (4)Natalie Ecanow details Qatar's massive $400 billion investment footprint in the United States, including high-profile real estate like New York's Park Lane Hotel and significant orders for Boeing aircraft. She argues these investments are not merely financial but serve to buy long-term political influence and goodwill with American policymakers, regardless of party affiliation, by embedding Qatari wealth into the U.S. economy. (5)Natalie Ecanow explains that Qatari wealth is controlled by the Al-Thani autocracy, whose values often conflict with U.S. interests, such as their support for Hamas and the Taliban. She highlights the lack of transparency in Qatarifunding, citing a lawsuit that revealed nearly half a billion dollars in undisclosed money sent to Texas A&M University, and calls for stricter U.S. disclosure laws. (6)Joel Kotkin examines the definition of fascism, arguing that Italian Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni is not a fascist because she respects democratic norms. He identifies China's government-led economy as the closest modern parallel to historical fascism. Kotkin also warns of "techno-fascism," where a small group of global tech companies exert unprecedented control over public opinion and information through surveillance tools. (7)Joel Kotkin disputes the label of "fascist" for the MAGA movement, noting it lacks the youth-driven, paramilitary organization characteristic of movements led by Mussolini or Hitler. He describes MAGA as a chaotic coalition of various interest groups held together by Donald Trump's personality. Kotkin emphasizes that using the term as a political slur ruins the possibility of necessary civil discourse. (8)Michael Bernstam discusses a looming glut of liquefied natural gas driven by record U.S. shale production, which is stabilizing energy prices in Europe. Regarding Russia, he explains that while crude exports continue, Ukrainian drone strikes on refineries have created a domestic manufacturing crisis, leading to fuel shortages for Russian agriculture and industry that are difficult to repair under sanctions. (9)Michael Bernstam reveals that China has significantly reduced its oil imports by nearly half by drawing on massive strategic reserves of 1.4 billion barrels and increasing electric vehicle adoption. Simultaneously, the U.S. has reached record domestic oil production of nearly 14 million barrels per day. These factors combined help lower global oil prices despite declining inventories in other OECD countries. (10)Tal Fortgang explores Justice Scalia's legal philosophy through a biography by James Rosen, focusing on Scalia's dissent in Lee v. Weisman regarding religious benedictions at public graduations. Fortgang explains how Scaliapopularized "originalism" and "textualism," arguing that the Constitution should be interpreted based on the original public meaning of the text rather than through subjective "moral readings" by judges. (11)Tal Fortgang discusses the "Scalian revolution" that shifted the Supreme Court toward judicial restraint. He notes that while Scalia faced a hostile press and "nasty" internal criticism from colleagues like Harry Blackmun, his ideas eventually prevailed. Fortgang also observes that the modern partisan venom in confirmation hearings began during Scalia's era with the contentious treatment of Robert Bork and Clarence Thomas. (12)Simon Constable reports from France on falling global commodity prices for food and energy due to supply meeting demand. He then shifts to the immigration crisis in Britain, where violent incidents in Belfast and Southampton have fueled public outrage. Constable attributes the unrest to a failure of both major parties to manage unfettered immigration and the lack of cultural integration. (13)Simon Constable discusses the declining popularity of UK Prime Minister Keir Starmer and the potential rise of challengers like Andy Burnham. He highlights a dramatic shift in British public opinion, with polling by Lord Ashcroftshowing that a vast majority of Labour, Liberal Democrat, and Green voters—and even a third of Conservatives—now favor rejoining the European Union after a decade of Brexit. (14)Bob Zimmerman tracks the transition to commercial space, noting that private companies like Vast are leading the race to build stations to replace the aging ISS. He discusses Amazon's struggle to launch its satellite constellation due to rocket delays, contrasted with SpaceX's efficiency. Zimmerman also reports on a milestone for SpaceX, as a single Falcon 9 booster successfully completed a record 35th flight. (15)Bob Zimmerman highlights discoveries by the James Webb Space Telescope, including a black hole 6 billion times the mass of the sun located 10 billion light-years away. He also describes a "flickering" quasar from the early universe that challenges current Big Bang theories. Finally, Zimmerman provides an update on the Curiosity rover as it travels through the "Grand" valley on its ascent of Mars. (16)Two name fixes: Joel Cotkin → Joel Kotkin (7, 8) — the urbanist/scholar's correct spelling Natalie Eacano → Natalie Ecanow (5, 6) — the FDD scholar's correct spelling

Ngày 11/06/2026, giải Vô địch Bóng đá Thế giới lần thứ 23 chính thức khai mạc tại ba nước đồng tổ chức là Canada, Hoa Kỳ và Mêhicô, với trận chung kết diễn ra tại New York ngày 19/07/2026. Giữa những tranh cãi về khâu tổ chức, các chỉ trích về chính sách nhập cư, hạn chế visa nhập cảnh và các căng thẳng địa chính trị, tổng thống Mỹ Donald Trump muốn biến kỳ World Cup 2026 thành một vũ đài, thể hiện quyền lực và tầm nhìn về quan hệ quốc tế của ông. Đây là lần đầu tiên lễ hội bóng đá lớn nhất hành tinh, diễn ra mỗi bốn năm một lần, được ba nước đồng tổ chức. Sự kiện này khẳng định hơn nữa xu thế đồng tổ chức các cuộc tranh tài thể thao lớn bắt đầu từ mùa Euro 2008 tại Thụy Sĩ và Áo, Euro 2012 tại Ba Lan và Ukraina, và gần đây nhất là mùa Euro 2020, bị dời lại một năm do đại dịch Covid, diễn ra tại ít nhất 11 nước chủ nhà. Vào năm 2030, Cúp Bóng đá Thế giới sẽ diễn ra tại Tây ban Nha, Bồ Đào Nha và Maroc, với ba trận đấu khác ở Achentina, Paraguay và Uruguay. Đồng tổ chức, đồng chia sẻ chi phí, nhưng cạnh tranh hình ảnh chủ nhà Trong phiên bản 2026, việc chọn Canada, Hoa Kỳ và Mêhicô, được FIFA thông qua vào năm 2018, và theo sáng kiến của cựu tổng thống Mỹ Barack Obama, phản ảnh mong muốn xây dựng một sự kiện bóng đá cấp châu lục quy mô lớn. Theo giải thích của Cyrille Bret, chuyên gia về quan hệ quốc tế, với trang The Conversation, mục tiêu đặt ra là nhằm đáp ứng các yêu cầu kinh tế, theo đó, ba nước cùng chia sẻ chi phí tổ chức, dùng chung cơ sở hạ tầng và hạn chế việc xây dựng các công trình mới. « Những khía cạnh này càng thêm quan trọng hơn khi đây sẽ là kỳ World Cup lớn nhất trong lịch sử : Lần đầu tiên có 48 đội tuyển tham gia vòng chung kết, thi đấu tổng cộng 104 trận. Bảy kỳ World Cup trước đó, kể từ kỳ tổ chức ở Pháp năm 1998, đều có 32 đội tham gia, đấu 64 trận. Con số này còn thấp hơn trước đó nữa, khi chỉ có 24 đội từ năm 1982 đến 1994 và chỉ có 16 đội trước giai đoạn này. Sự gia tăng này là đáng kể và có thể là chưa kết thúc, bởi vì FIFA đang xem xét mở rộng lên 64 đội ngay từ năm 2030. » Tuy diễn ra tại ba nước, nhưng mọi sự chú ý chủ yếu đổ dồn vào Hoa Kỳ, bởi vì 78 trong số 104 trận tranh tài sẽ diễn ra trên lãnh thổ Mỹ, và do vậy Mỹ sẽ là nơi có mật độ phủ sóng truyền thông cao nhất. Trên phương diện xây dựng « thương hiệu quốc gia », đây thực sự là một lợi thế đáng kể. Cyrille Bret lưu ý, « trong vòng một tháng, các hình ảnh được phát sóng ra toàn thế giới chủ yếu sẽ giới thiệu các thành phố lớn của Mỹ. » Nhưng để có được lợi thế này, nhà địa chính trị học về thể thao, Pascal Boniface, giám đốc Viện Quan hệ Quốc tế và Chiến lược (IRIS), trong chương trình truyền hình của France 24, nhắc lại, đích thân Donald Trump, trong nhiệm kỳ I đã can thiệp « một cách thô bạo » trong quá trình bầu chọn ứng viên đăng cai World Cup : « Lần đầu tiên một tổng thống đe dọa trừng phạt những nước nào không bỏ phiếu cho Mỹ. Thông thường một tổng thống, một nguyên thủ quốc gia chỉ làm công tác quan hệ công chúng. Vì mỗi liên đoàn có một lá phiếu, và người ta biết ai bỏ phiếu cho ai, thế nên ông Trump đã đe dọa sẽ trừng phạt những nước nào bỏ phiếu cho Maroc, một ứng viên khác. Đây thực sự là một tiền lệ chưa từng có. » Dù có ít trận đấu diễn ra trên lãnh thổ, nhưng Canada và Mêhicô cũng sẽ nỗ lực thể hiện tầm cỡ của mình trong việc bảo đảm an ninh, giao thông và cơ sở hạ tầng. Chuyên gia Cyrille Bret cho rằng « hai nước còn lại có thể tạo sự khác biệt thông qua hình ảnh như giới thiệu thành phố chủ nhà, cảnh quang hay di sản của họ, những yếu tố vô cùng quý giá, góp phần xây dựng danh tiếng quốc tế, một thương hiệu quốc gia tiếng tăm ». Cũng theo vị chuyên gia về quan hệ quốc tế, tuy đồng tổ chức nhưng còn có sự cạnh tranh về lòng hiếu khách. Các cổ động viên trên toàn thế giới sẽ so sánh cách tiếp đón tại mỗi nước. Liệu rằng nước Mỹ của Donald Trump với chủ trương « Nước Mỹ trên hết » có sẽ được đánh giá là nơi tiếp đón nồng nhiệt nhất so với hai quốc gia láng giềng hay không ? Trump đăng cai World Cup nhưng hạn chế cổ động viên nhập cảnh Về điểm này, Hoa Kỳ có lẽ đang mất lợi thế trước hai đối thủ cạnh tranh là Canada và Mêhicô. Việc đăng cai một sự kiện thể thao lớn cho phép nước chủ nhà nhấn mạnh tầm quan trọng của một quốc gia. nhưng những căng thẳng chính trị nội bộ và các xung đột địa chính trị đang làm dấy lên nỗi lo cho một thảm họa thể thao to lớn. Chính sách siết chặt nhập cư và hạn chế visa nhập cảnh của chính quyền Trump đang đi ngược lại với tinh thần của World Cup là mở cửa ra thế giới. Theo quan điểm của Cyrille Bret, đây chính là sự mâu thuẫn cốt lõi của chủ nghĩa Trump. Một mặt ông tìm cách thể hiện sự hiện diện toàn cầu của nước Mỹ, và mặt khác, ông chủ trương đóng cửa biên giới nghiêm ngặt, ngăn cản công dân các quốc gia có đủ điều kiện tham dự World Cup đến Mỹ cổ vũ cho đội nhà. Trong một phóng sự của France 24, Boubacar Seye, chủ tịch hiệp hội Horizon sans Frontières, bảo vệ quyền người di cư Senegal, quốc gia nằm trong danh sách các nước bị hạn chế cấp visa, đã chỉ trích mạnh mẽ chính sách này của chính quyền Trump là khó hiểu : « Lễ hội đã bị phá hỏng rồi. Bởi vì không thể tổ chức World Cup mà không có người hâm mộ. Điều đó là chưa từng có tiền lệ. Senegal cần phản đối bằng con đường ngoại giao. Họ cần liên hệ với FIFA, họ cần liên hệ với các tổ chức nhân quyền. » Chính sách cứng rắn này của Trump là hữu ích về mặt chính trị. Hình ảnh về sự kiên quyết bảo vệ biên giới vẫn được một bộ phận cử tri của ông ủng hộ. Cách đánh giá này cũng được Kevin Veyssière, chuyên gia địa chính trị thể thao, trả lời France 24 cùng chia sẻ : « Trên bình diện đối nội, ông sử dụng giải đấu để thách thức việc đăng cai các trận đấu của một số thành phố do đảng Dân Chủ điều hành và có bất đồng với chính sách của ông. Điều này là quan trọng bởi vì bầu cử giữa kỳ sẽ diễn ra vài tháng sau kỳ World Cup. Ông hy vọng rằng mùa bóng này sẽ là một lợi thế để giành thắng lợi bầu cử ». Nước chủ nhà và nước dự giải trong chiến tranh Một ẩn số khác trong kỳ World Cup lần này là sự tham dự của Iran. Lần đầu tiên trong lịch sử bóng đá, nước chủ nhà và nước tham dự giải đấu trong tình trạng chiến tranh từ hơn ba tháng nay. Sự hiện diện của tuyển Iran trở thành một thách thức ngoại giao. Nhà địa chính trị về thể thao Pascal Boniface nhắc lại, trong quá khứ, vào năm 1998, khi Mỹ và Iran vào thời điểm đó cũng trong tình trạng chiến tranh, đã cho thế giới thấy một hình ảnh tích cực : « Vào năm 1998, hai đội đã chụp ảnh chung, và các cầu thủ Iran đã tặng hoa hồng trắng cho các cầu thủ Mỹ. Đó là thời kỳ xích lại gần nhau về mặt ngoại giao giữa Hoa Kỳ dưới thời Bill Clinton và Iran dưới thời Katami. » Về phần mình, Cyrille Bret lưu ý : « Những cuộc tranh tài thể thao lớn không tạo ra những căng thẳng quốc tế nhưng chúng làm nổi rõ những vấn đề đó. Thể thức tham gia của Iran sẽ phụ thuộc chủ yếu vào tình trạng quan hệ giữa Washington và Teheran vào thời điểm diễn ra giải đấu – một mối quan hệ biến động gần như hàng ngày. Vấn đề này có thể trở thành, giống như một số vụ tẩy chay Olympic trong quá khứ, một công cụ để gây áp lực hoặc đàm phán. Người ta đã biết rằng đội tuyển Iran, theo nguyên tắc sẽ thi đấu các trận của họ trên lãnh thổ Hoa Kỳ, cuối cùng đóng trại tại Tijuana, Mêhicô, gần biên giới với Mỹ, và sẽ phải di chuyển đi về trong cùng một ngày. Nhưng World Cup chỉ đơn thuần là sự phản ánh của một động lực quyền lực đã tồn tại từ trước. » Ở đây một lần nữa chính quyền Trump áp đặt luật chơi đối với một sự kiện thể thao lớn. Trả lời France 24 Kevin Veyssière cho rằng, « trên trường quốc tế, Hoa Kỳ rõ ràng không cần World Cup để củng cố quyền lực mềm. Nhưng Donald Trump muốn giải đấu này mang dấu ấn và tầm nhìn của ông về quan hệ quốc tế. Trong khi Nga vào năm 2018 và Qatar năm 2022 đã thể hiện sự cởi mở để tạo dựng hình ảnh tốt nhất có thể, thì rõ ràng Hoa Kỳ không như vậy. Donald Trump muốn thế giới thích nghi với Hoa Kỳ, chứ không phải ngược lại. » Là một người cũng ưa thích thể thao, nhưng chủ yếu đam mê của ông là golf, đô vật và MMA, những môn thể thao nam tính và phù hợp với lập trường chính trị và thành phần cử tri của ông, bóng đá tại Mỹ, về mặt lịch sử là một môn thể thao cho nữ giới, nhưng Donald Trump trong các phát biểu, đang tìm cách biến đổi đất nước ông thành một vùng đất của bóng đá, không phải là vì niềm đam mê mà là vì những lợi ích chính trị. FIFA : Một tổ chức phi chính trị ? Những điều này Trump có thể thực hiện đó là nhờ vào sự tiếp tay của FIFA, đặc biệt là chủ tịch hiện nay Gianni Infantino, người đang bị cáo buộc là có những hành vi tham nhũng. Về điểm này, Kevin Veyssière, có nhận định như sau : « Nhìn vào lịch sử của giải đấu, từ kỳ World Cup 1934 dưới thời Mussolini đến kỳ World Cup 2022 tại Qatar, FIFA chưa bao giờ đóng vai trò trung gian hòa giải đối với nước chủ nhà. Chưa bao giờ có mối quan hệ phi chính trị giữa cơ quan quản lý và nhà tổ chức, mà chỉ là mối quan hệ đối tác. Dưới thời Gianni Infantino (chủ tịch FIFA từ năm 2016), chúng ta thậm chí còn chứng kiến ​​những mối quan hệ rất cá nhân phát triển giữa ông và các nguyên thủ quốc gia của các nước chủ nhà. Với Donald Trump, điều này đạt đến đỉnh điểm, lên đến việc trao tặng giải thưởng Hòa bình FIFA đầy phi lý trong lễ bốc thăm vào tháng 12 năm 2025. Một giải thưởng thực sự phi lý, nếu xét đến các chính sách của Trump vào đầu năm, từ vụ bắt cóc Nicolás Maduro ở Venezuela đến các cuộc tấn công chống lại Iran. Chúng ta thường nói về tình bạn thân thiết giữa Trump và Infantino, nhưng không có chuyện tình cảm lãng mạn. Chủ yếu đó là cuộc đấu tranh quyền lực. Cả hai đều có chung thế giới quan. Infantino phô trương quyền lực : ông đang ở nhiệm kỳ thứ tư, hiện đã tái đắc cử mà không cần bỏ phiếu tán thành, và không có cơ chế kiểm soát hay cân bằng nào tại FIFA. Và ông không bị thách thức vì doanh thu của tổ chức này tiếp tục tăng trưởng. » Một quan điểm cũng được nhà phân tích quan hệ quốc tế, Cyrille Bret, đồng chia sẻ với trang The Conversation, khi cho rằng điều này là không có gì mới mẻ. « Các tổ chức thể thao lớn luôn vun đắp các mối quan hệ mập mờ với quyền lực chính trị (…) Lập luận của họ trước hết là về kinh tế. Các cuộc tranh tài quốc tế đã trở thành những sản phẩm toàn cầu cho phép tài trợ một phần thể thao chuyên nghiệp ».

What if rooting for the Knicks and rallying behind a nation-state are powered by the exact same part of the human brain? On this episode of Bro History, Henry and Danny are joined by Frankie Donnelly from South Philly — and yes, Frankie is an AI research co-host powered by maneku (maneku.ai) — to break down one of the most fascinating and disturbing parallels in modern life: sports fandom as a mirror of nationalism. It starts with the Knicks' electric playoff run taking over New York City, spirals into a deleted newspaper article comparing the OKC Thunder to the state of Israel, and ends somewhere between Mussolini's Italy and a pep rally. They dig into why MSG unites Orthodox Jews and Arab New Yorkers in a way Congress never could, why Knicks fans sacking Philadelphia felt like a Mongolian conquest, and how the same psychological machinery that makes you weep over a playoff loss is the same thing authoritarian regimes have weaponized for centuries — from Hitler's Nuremberg rallies to the 1978 Argentine World Cup. Frankie drops facts, pulls receipts, and says the uncomfortable quiet part out loud — all in real time. That's maneku. Try it yourself at maneku.ai.

Imprisoned by fascist dictator Benito Mussolini in 1926, the prison writings of Italian Marxist theorist Antonio Gramsci remain essential 100 years later for understanding how fascism, policing, and incarceration function to suppress political dissent and preserve unequal systems of power.

Rejoignez-nous pour découvrir la vie captivante de l'écrivain Luigi Pirandello, figure emblématique de la littérature italienne du début du XXe siècle. Né en Sicile dans une famille ruinée par un tragique éboulement, Pirandello va s'imposer progressivement comme l'un des plus grands dramaturges de son époque, avec des œuvres comme "Six Personnages en quête d'auteur" qui bousculent les codes du théâtre traditionnel.Mais le destin de Pirandello est également marqué par les tourments d'une époque tourmentée. Tiraillé entre son attrait pour les idées anarchistes de sa jeunesse et la tentation de s'accommoder du régime fasciste de Mussolini, l'écrivain naviguera avec difficulté entre ces deux mondes, payant parfois le prix fort pour ses choix. Franck Ferrand nous plonge au cœur de cette existence hors normes, depuis les racines siciliennes de Pirandello jusqu'à son triomphe sur les scènes européennes, en passant par les défis personnels et les compromissions politiques qui ont jalonné son parcours. Un récit passionnant sur un auteur qui a profondément marqué la littérature de son temps.Découvrez les hauts et les bas de la vie de Luigi Pirandello, de ses débuts modestes à sa consécration internationale, en écoutant cet épisode captivant des "Grands dossiers de l'Histoire". Une plongée dans l'univers tourmenté d'un écrivain tiraillé entre ses idéaux et les réalités de son époque.Plongez dans l'histoire des grands personnages et des évènements marquants qui ont façonné notre monde !

En octubre de 1922, Italia vivía una profunda crisis política. Aprovechando la fragilidad del sistema parlamentario, Benito Mussolini lanza un desafío frontal al Estado: rodeado por 40.000 militantes fascistas en Nápoles, exige el poder y amenaza con tomar Roma por la fuerza. La Marcha sobre Roma, encabezada por hombres vestidos de negro y armados con porras, marca el inicio de un nuevo orden. El régimen que nace tras este golpe legal gobernará Italia con mano de hierro durante más de dos décadas. Mussolini, carismático y brutal, mezcla populismo y represión, exaltando el nacionalismo y prometiendo la restauración de la grandeza imperial. Aunque procede de la izquierda revolucionaria, acabará ejerciendo el poder desde la extrema derecha, con el respaldo de las élites económicas que ven en él la solución contra el avance del socialismo. El fascismo que él mismo bautiza se convierte en un modelo para otros regímenes autoritarios. Su influencia se extiende por Europa mientras su popularidad en Italia crece. Pero detrás del mito de Il Duce se esconde una maquinaria de control, propaganda y violencia que prepara el camino hacia la guerra.

Una anciana que dispara a Lenin en el patio de una fábrica de Moscú. Una aristócrata irlandesa que roza la nariz de Mussolini con una bala y cambia el siglo XX por tres centímetros. Un carpintero bávaro que trabaja durante treinta noches escondido en la oscuridad para matar a Hitler, y que falla por trece minutos. Un dictador yugoslavo que le escribe a Stalin para que deje de intentar matarlo. Y un comando de ETA a punto de asesinar al rey de España en Mallorca. Esta semana en La Hora Oscura, intentos de magnicidio que fracasaron por cuestión de segundos, centímetros o palabras. Y una pregunta sin respuesta: ¿qué habría pasado si hubieran tenido éxito?

Włodzimierz Czarzasty, marszałek Sejmu z Nowej Lewicy, ostro skrytykował zapowiedzi prezydenckich wet wobec ustawy o statusie osoby najbliższej. Jak mówił, trudno zrozumieć sprzeciw wobec rozwiązań dotyczących m.in. wspólnego rozliczania się, prawa do informacji medycznej, ubezpieczenia czy decyzji o pochówku, które są „podstawowymi prawami ludzi”. Czarzasty podkreślał, że projekt nie powinien budzić takich emocji i pytał, „komu przeszkadza” uporządkowanie tych kwestii. W ostrym tonie stwierdził, że polityka nie może blokować rozwiązań odpowiadających na realne potrzeby społeczne, a państwo powinno dawać obywatelom większą swobodę w regulowaniu relacji życiowych. Nie obyło się także bez komentowania sytuacji z prezydentem Ukrainy. Marszałek przypomina, że Orderem Orła Białego został uhonorowany np. Mussolini - i nikt mu odznaczenia nie odebrał. Pyta także, czy w polskiej polityce standardem stanie się dyplomacja niczym "ustawki w lesie"?

En los primeros meses de 1940, Italia enfrentó un asedio económico debido al bloqueo aliado sobre importaciones vitales, especialmente el carbón alemán, pero Mussolini rechazó las propuestas británicas de intercambiar carbón por armamento para mantener su compromiso con Hitler y su "honor" político. Tras la promesa de Ribbentrop de suministrar carbón por ferrocarril, el dictador consolidó su decisión de intervenir al lado de Alemania, en una guerra paralela, mediante la cual buscaba autonomía y hegemonía en el Mediterráneo.

No episódio 56 do Giro Histórico, o nosso "camisa 10" Willian Spengler nos leva a um campo de batalha pouco explorado nas narrativas tradicionais da Segunda Guerra Mundial: o continente africano, especificamente a Etiópia. Você sabia que a primeira vitória aliada na Grande Guerra aconteceu em solo etíope? Acompanhe como este povo milenar, que nunca foi formalmente colonizado, resistiu bravamente à ocupação fascista de Benito Mussolini. O Will detalha a luta dos "Patriotas Etíopes", a guerra de guerrilha em Addis Abeba e o papel fundamental do imperador Haile Selassie na denúncia dos crimes de guerra italianos, incluindo o uso ilegal de armas químicas como o gás mostarda. Descubra como a libertação da Etiópia, em 1941, não foi apenas uma vitória moral, mas um marco estratégico que permitiu às forças aliadas conter o avanço do Eixo no Egito e enfrentar a famosa "Raposa do Deserto", Erwin Rommel. É uma aula de história sobre resistência, soberania e a importância da África no cenário global do conflito.

A história europeia contemporânea é repleta de reviravoltas singulares, mas poucas trajetórias são tão inesperadas quanto a de Alessandra Mussolini. Neta do ditador Benito Mussolini e sobrinha da consagrada atriz Sophia Loren, Alessandra construiu uma vida pública marcada por dualidades profundas. Após transitar pela carreira artística e musical, ingressou na política partidária na década de 1990, defendendo historicamente o legado familiar e aliando-se a coalizões de direita no Parlamento italiano e no Parlamento Europeu. Contudo, os anos recentes trouxeram uma revisão radical em suas visões de mundo. Afastada dos cargos públicos, ela surpreendeu a opinião pública ao alinhar-se a pautas associadas à esquerda progressista e tornar-se defensora da comunidade LGBTQ+. Em 2026, sua jornada ganhou um capítulo definitivo no entretenimento de massa com sua vitória no reality show Grande Fratello VIP. Neste vídeo, a Brasil Paralelo analisa como a cultura pop e a espetacularização da vida privada operam na sociedade moderna, possuindo a capacidade de mitigar a densidade dos fatos históricos em prol do carisma individual.

Hai mai notato che il 2 giugno in Italia è tutto chiuso? Niente scuola, niente uffici, banche serrate e, per le strade delle grandi città, militari in alta uniforme, bande musicali e perfino aerei che lasciano scie tricolori nel cielo. Ma cosa si celebra esattamente in questa data? In questo articolo scoprirai la storia della Festa della Repubblica, il vocabolario legato alla storia italiana e qualche curiosità sorprendente. La Festa della Repubblica Spiegata Bene Il 2 giugno è una delle date più importanti del calendario italiano: è la Festa della Repubblica. Ma dietro questa giornata festiva c'è una storia affascinante, fatta di re, referendum e momenti che hanno cambiato per sempre il volto del Paese. L'Italia Prima del 1946: un Paese Ferito Per capire cosa è successo il 2 giugno 1946, bisogna fare un passo indietro. Anzi, parecchi passi indietro, fino al momento della nascita del Paese. Un'Italia Monarchica Dal 1861, l'anno dell'Unità d'Italia, fino al 1946, l'Italia era una monarchia. Questo significa che il capo dello Stato non era un presidente eletto dal popolo, ma un re. La famiglia reale era quella dei Savoia, una dinastia molto antica che aveva governato il Piemonte per secoli. Nota linguistica: in italiano si dice "i Savoia" usando il cognome al plurale per indicare l'intera famiglia. Funziona così anche con altre famiglie famose: "i Medici", "i Borgia", "i Visconti". Se invece si dice "la famiglia Rossi", si usa "Rossi" al singolare. Il Ventennio Fascista e la Guerra Nel 1922 sale al potere Benito Mussolini e inizia il ventennio fascista. Il re dell'epoca, Vittorio Emanuele III, invece di opporsi a Mussolini, gli affida il governo. Mussolini porta l'Italia nella Seconda Guerra Mondiale a fianco della Germania nazista. Il risultato è un disastro totale: città bombardate, milioni di morti, fame, distruzione. L'Italia esce dalla guerra in ginocchio, e molti italiani si chiedono se la colpa sia anche del re, che non ha fermato Mussolini. Espressione utile: quando un Paese è "in ginocchio", significa che si trova in una situazione drammatica, di grande debolezza. Si può usare anche per le persone: "Dopo quel periodo difficile, era in ginocchio". L'Abdicazione di Vittorio Emanuele III A maggio del 1946, sentendo che il vento sta cambiando, Vittorio Emanuele III decide di abdicare, cioè di rinunciare al trono, a favore di suo figlio Umberto II. Spera così di salvare la monarchia, dando un volto nuovo e meno compromesso al regno. Come vedremo, però, non funzionerà. Il Referendum del 2 Giugno 1946: Monarchia o Repubblica? Si arriva così alla data chiave. Il 2 giugno 1946 (e in realtà anche il 3 giugno, perché si votò per due giorni) gli italiani vengono chiamati alle urne per decidere una questione fondamentale: continuare con la monarchia o diventare una repubblica? Che Cos'è un Referendum Questo tipo di votazione si chiama referendum, e in italiano si pronuncia proprio come si scrive: re-fe-rén-dum. È una parola latina che significa letteralmente "cose da riferire", cioè "cose da chiedere al popolo". I Risultati del Voto La Repubblica vince con circa il 54% dei voti, contro il 46% della monarchia. Non un trionfo schiacciante, ma una vittoria chiara: circa 12,7 milioni di voti contro 10,7 milioni. OpzionePercentualeVotiRepubblicaCirca 54%≈ 12,7 milioniMonarchiaCirca 46%≈ 10,7 milioni Il 13 giugno 1946 Umberto II lascia l'Italia e parte in esilio per il Portogallo, dove si stabilirà nella cittadina di Cascais e dove vivrà fino alla morte, senza mai più rimettere piede in Italia. Suo padre Vittorio Emanuele III, invece, era già andato in esilio in Egitto subito dopo l'abdicazione di maggio. Curiosità: Umberto II è stato re per soli 34 giorni. Proprio per questo viene ricordato con il soprannome di "il Re di Maggio". Un'Italia Spaccata in Due Il voto rivelò un'Italia divisa geograficamente. Il Nord votò massicciamente per la Repubblica, mentre il Sud preferì la monarchia. A Napoli, addirittura, la monarchia prese quasi l'80% dei voti. Da quel giorno nacque anche la famosa espressione "Regno del Sud", usata scherzosamente per indicare le regioni meridionali più affezionate alla corona. La Grande Novità: le Donne Votano alle Elezioni Politiche C'è un aspetto fondamentale che spesso viene dimenticato: il 2 giugno 1946 è stata la prima volta nella storia d'Italia in cui le donne hanno potuto votare in un'elezione nazionale e politica. Quasi un Secolo Senza Diritto di Voto Per quasi un secolo dall'Unità d'Italia, le donne italiane non avevano avuto diritto di voto: metà della popolazione non poteva decidere nulla del proprio Paese. In realtà, le donne italiane avevano già votato qualche mese prima, il 10 marzo 1946, ma alle elezioni amministrative, cioè per scegliere i sindaci dei loro comuni. Il 2 giugno, però, fu la prima volta che parteciparono a una consultazione nazionale. E parteciparono in massa: circa 13 milioni di donne andarono a votare.

La Curiosità del Rossetto In vista del voto, alle donne fu raccomandato di non mettere il rossetto. Il motivo? La scheda elettorale doveva essere chiusa con la saliva, un po' come si fa con le buste delle lettere. Le autorità temevano che il rossetto potesse lasciare tracce sulla scheda, e qualsiasi segno di riconoscimento l'avrebbe resa nulla, cioè non valida. Il Corriere della Sera pubblicò addirittura un articolo intitolato "Senza rossetto nella cabina elettorale", consigliando alle donne di portare con sé il rossetto e di metterlo solo dopo aver votato. Come Si Festeggia Oggi il 2 Giugno Il 2 giugno in Italia è festa nazionale: scuole chiuse, uffici chiusi, e molte persone ne approfittano per fare un ponte. Questa giornata è strettamente legata al funzionamento delle istituzioni: per approfondire, puoi consultare la guida sul sistema politico italiano. Vocabolario utile: "fare un ponte" non significa costruire un ponte, ma collegare un giorno festivo al weekend per prendersi più giorni di vacanza. Per esempio: "Il 2 giugno è di mercoledì? Allora prendo le ferie giovedì e venerdì e mi faccio un ponte fino a domenica!". La Parata Militare ai Fori Imperiali L'evento più importante si svolge a Roma, lungo i Fori Imperiali. C'è una grande parata militare alla presenza del Presidente della Repubblica, dei membri del Governo e di tante autorità. Sfilano i militari, i carabinieri, la polizia, i vigili del fuoco e la protezione civile. Le Frecce Tricolori Il momento più spettacolare e fotografato è quello delle Frecce Tricolori: aerei militari che disegnano nel cielo le tre strisce della bandiera italiana, verde, bianca e rossa. Inoltre, quel giorno è possibile visitare gratuitamente i Giardini del Quirinale, cioè i giardini della residenza ufficiale del Presidente della Repubblica. Un'occasione unica, perché di solito sono chiusi al pubblico. Per altre informazioni di questo tipo, puoi consultare la guida sulle curiosità sull'Italia.

Si celebra la Festa della Repubblica, che ricorda il referendum del 2 giugno 1946 con cui gli italiani scelsero di trasformare l'Italia da monarchia a repubblica. Chi È Stato l'Ultimo Re d'Italia? L'ultimo re d'Italia è stato Umberto II, soprannominato "il Re di Maggio" perché regnò per soli 34 giorni. Dopo il referendum andò in esilio in Portogallo, dove visse fino alla morte. È Vero che le Donne Votarono per la Prima Volta il 2 Giugno 1946? Per quanto riguarda le elezioni nazionali, sì: il 2 giugno 1946 fu la prima volta. Le donne italiane avevano però già votato il 10 marzo 1946 alle elezioni amministrative locali, per scegliere i sindaci dei comuni. Perché alle Donne Fu Consigliato di Non Mettere il Rossetto? Perché la scheda elettorale andava chiusa con la saliva. Il rossetto avrebbe potuto lasciare un segno sulla scheda, e qualsiasi segno di riconoscimento l'avrebbe resa nulla, cioè non valida.

With the rise of Benito Mussolini (and, by extension, fascism) in Italy, the colony of Eritrea was hurled into Modern Age. Rapid industrialization and development of infrastructure meant that the capital city of Asmara's population more than doubled within a decidedly short span of time. But the grinding gears of history had other plans for the colony. Find out what happened next in Part Two of Italian Eritrea!

The rise of the far right is the defining political crisis of our time. But are we analyzing it correctly? Suzi speaks with David Ost about his book Red Pill Politics: Demystifying the Far Right from Fascism to Right-Wing Populism. David argues that by focusing on whether Trump, Orban, or Netanyahu is or isn't a fascist, we're missing the deeper question: what political species do fascism and right-wing populism share? And what does understanding that species tell us about why the left keeps losing workers it once counted as its core constituency? It's a sweeping comparative political analysis that argues fascism and today's right-wing populism are not separate phenomena but two expressions of the same underlying political species, that of the Red Pill (a loose acronym of Right-wing, Exclusionary Nationalist-Democratic, Populist Illiberalism). From the Boulanger Affair in 1880s France to Tucker Carlson, from Mussolini's syndicalist unions to Orban's welfare chauvinism, the radical right has won by offering workers something — economic recognition, belonging, enemies to hate — that the neoliberal center-left abandoned along with NAFTA and the Third Way. David ends with a diagnosis of the left's own failures and a prescription for what it would take to turn things around. Jacobin Radio with Suzi Weissman features conversations with leading thinkers and activists, with a focus on labor, the economy, and protest movements.

Direction l'Italie, où l'extrême droite identitaire milite pour un projet de loi sur la « remigration », et pas seulement des immigrés sans papiers. 150 000 signatures ont été réunies en un mois de campagne, de quoi voir l'initiative arriver au Parlement. Au sommaire également : une expérience irlandaise très concrète pour protéger les enfants des écrans : « It takes a village » ! Si Giorgia Meloni se montre très dure contre l'immigration irrégulière, elle organise en parallèle l'entrée de travailleurs étrangers pour les besoins de l'économie : près de 500 000 visas doivent être délivrés. Une contradiction pour l'extrême droite identitaire et les groupuscules néofascistes, qui mènent campagne depuis un mois autour d'un mot d'ordre : la « remigration », et pas seulement celle des sans-papiers. Dans des centaines de communes italiennes, leurs militants installent des stands, récoltent des signatures et revendiquent déjà 150 000 soutiens, trois fois plus que le seuil nécessaire pour déposer leur projet de loi au Parlement.

Send us Fan MailIn this episode I take on a label that gets thrown around way too casually: ‘far‑right fascist.' I walk through how mainstream politicians, academics, and media smear conservatives as fascists, starting with Biden's ‘semi‑fascism' line and moving through Hillary Clinton, Stacey Abrams, Antifa, the 2020 riots, and the assassination of Charlie Kirk. I argue that election denial and political violence are bipartisan bad habits, not a one‑sided moral failing. I lay out my three‑axis way of thinking about politics — personal freedom (‘leave me the hell alone'), economic control (capitalism vs. heavy state control), and nationalism — and explain why both fascists and communists fail the ‘leave me the hell alone' test, why today's loud progressives sit closer to the authoritarian left than they admit, and why wanting smaller government and strong borders does not make you Mussolini. If being conservative gets you called a fascist, maybe it's time to stop accepting their definitions — and, if we're going to trade playground insults, to answer that their mother wears army boots

In 1971, Congress declared Memorial Day a national holiday to be celebrated on the last Monday in May, echoing the words and sentiments of the proclamation of General John A. Logan of the grand Army of the Republic in 1868 who stated: “MEMORIAL DAY IS DESIGNATED FOR THE PURPOSE OF STREWING WITH FLOWERS OR OTHERWISE DECORATING THE GRAVES OF COMRADES WHO DIED IN DEFENSE OF THEIR COUNTRY DURING THE LATE REBELLION (THE CIVIL WAR) AND WHOSE BODIES NOW LIE IN ALMOST EVERY CITY, VILLAGE AND HAMLET, CHURCH YARD IN THE LAND.” So it is that the primary purpose of Memorial Day is to strew with flowers, literally and figuratively, the graves and memories of America's daring defenders. They, the fallen, died for freedom, liberty, for America, for us, for YOU AND ME. We were asked to remember those who died in the great American Civil War, but the day to remember now incorporates all who have given lives in defense of our country. Far too many wars, my fellow Americans, and far too many fallen defenders by the millions who believed in America, and in its fundamental principles of life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness for all mankind. How grateful we should be. We are descendants or contemporaries of patriots, men and women who cherish freedom and were willing to fight and die to defend it if necessary. These warriors lived by the words of Patrick Henry who said: GIVE ME LIBERTY OR GIVE ME DEATH. Our nation was formed in the fight for freedom, for there was no life worthwhile without it. There came our great Constitution and our incredible BILL OF RIGHTS, the rights and freedom amendments which are the finest in the history of mankind. No matter the origin, it seems as though, in so many ways, the passion for freedom may have been lost today as they once had it. We seem to take for granted what they died for. The courage they had seems lost today in so many ways, and the change in our country produces in so many ways an America in decline, at least politically, philosophically, and certainly passionately. Our ancestors fought for the Constitution, for the Bill of Rights and the freedoms those now 27 Amendments allow us. They were ready to die for them, but we, the current people, allow them to be watered down, interpreted away and often ignored without the fight or conviction to protect and defend them. Perhaps the freedoms of Patrick Henry are giving way to a slow but sure death. Perhaps we have failed to meet the challenge of Ben Franklin who told us the Republic they created for us was a marvelous way of government IF we could keep it. I wonder if we can. So, in the midst of barbeques and baseball, it is so healthy to look back and remember. Remember a George Washington, a general, a leader, a President, a warrior, a patriot. Or a Paul Revere who rode the land warning the enemy was coming, sounding the alarm. It seems as though we need more Paul Reveres, warning us that enemies to our Constitution and way of life are coming, and in fact are HERE. We The People should be ever mindful of the threats and sound the alarm as he did, like those who energized our country once before, THE BOSTON TEA PARTY PATRIOTS and the revolution their courageous acts energized and inspired. They took a stand against taxes and so must we. Ours continue to rise, and rise to the point of confiscation, but nothing destroys freedom like taxes. President John Adams reminded us the two killers of liberty are slavery and debt. The debt of confiscatory taxation strangles freedom, and that is happening at an incredibly rapid pace today. Shame on us. It is hard for us to think back and remember the early days in America when slavery was a way of life in America, to our great shame and embarrassment. We, the moderns, find that inconceivable, and the practice of slavery of any kind abhorrent, do we not? Right-thinking men and women fought and fell to rid America of the scourge of slavery, God bless them. And to rid the world of despots like Hitler, evil to the core, Mussolini, and those who, in war, would destroy the freedom and liberty of all. God bless them. There can hardly be a family anywhere in America which has not laid a son or daughter on the altar of freedom. So many fought and fell, lives given willingly for us in war after war. There were those who supported those who fought. We honor them. Many of our warriors and defenders came home hurt and damaged in body or mind, perhaps for a lifetime. On Memorial Day, we honor these veterans of wars, these HEROES, these wounded warriors who gave us our freedom: WE OWE THEM! A debt we can never repay. To honor them is the least we can do, to thank them as we remember and as we encounter those in our military who follow after them. We should help and support them. They lived and died for what they believed. Whenever I encounter a member of our military, I thank them for what they did and what they do for our great country, for me, and for you, and for my friends and loved ones, and all Americans whether I know them or not. But, I really do know them, for I know what is in their hearts and minds and I know they love America as much as I do. I will salute them as a sign of respect. I wish them to know I will always be grateful for everything they do for me and the America I love. Perhaps YOU should do the same, not on one Memorial Day, but on all days. They, the heroes and defenders, are the very best of us. God bless them. Memorial Day is always celebrated at Arlington National Cemetery, a very special place, a burial site for some of America's bravest. At 3:00 PM on that Monday, a very special ceremony occurs, and each grave is decorated with a small American flag. The highlight of the celebration is a speech in honor of these brave men and women from the President or Vice President of the United States honoring their contributions to America and laying a wreath at the tomb of The Unknown Soldier. That tomb represents tens of thousands of other unknown soldiers who gave their lives in service to our country, but in death never got the recognition and respect they so justly deserved. Do remember them, my fellow Americans, do remember them as well on Memorial Day, as there may be no one else, no loved one, no friend or family to do so. As you do remember these American heroes, thank our God, the God who blesses America for all those who gave so much for us. They allowed us to be parents, to have and enjoy family, they allowed us to be workers and fully participate in the great opportunities America offers. THEY allowed us to be all we can be, because our soldiers, they were determined to be all they could be. Have a special place in your heart all week for any loved one, family or friend of yours who should be MEMORIALIZED AND REMEMBERED this day and always. And, as we pay tribute and remember, let us become better citizens of this great country, ready more than ever to preserve, protect, and defend all it stands for, all of our blessed and precious freedoms which exist like there are nowhere else in the world. Let us stand for what is right with actions, protests, town meetings, marches, debate, fact and truth at work, counteracting government spin and disinformation. Let us stand tall for the right, for truth, for all things moral and valuable. Let us resolve, WE THE PEOPLE, we who own and control this country, to do our job as citizens far better, and remember to cherish and exercise the greatest privilege which every American has THE VOTE! There is no more powerful weapon than the vote of the American citizen. It is the most precious Constitutional right we have, and for which our forefathers fought and died. Let us make certain we vote for those to represent us, who so passionately believe in these very special freedoms as we do, and they, the fallen, did. It is only then, when we do our part, day in and day out, that we would have the right to say, with conviction and passion, as our forefathers did: GOD BLESS AMERICA! For that can not happen unless WE THE PEOPLE do what is right, remembering whom and what went before, and committing with conviction to follow in their footsteps. These men and women died for GOD AND COUNTRY and for you and me in the never-ending fight to protect and preserve: FREEDOM! Memorialize their memories on Memorial Day and every day! God bless America and God bless you.

“Fascism is the term that is everywhere and nowhere in contemporary political discussions. We can talk about right-wing populism — but the type of politics they share with classic fascism is what I call red pill politics.” — David Ost Please don't use the F-word. At least to describe the politics of Trump, Orbán, Meloni, Netanyahu, Modi, Farage et al. Rather than fascism, the best way to demystify far-right populism is via the movie The Matrix through its idea of “red pill” politics. David Ost's new book, Red Pill Politics: Demystifying Today's Far Right, argues that to grasp the threat we need to stop stepping out of the Third Reich and into The Matrix. The red pill, borrowed from the 1999 dystopian classic, has been appropriated by the far right as a metaphor for seeing through the liberal hegemony they claim distorts reality. Popping a red pill himself, Ost argues that while today's far right shares the essential DNA of classical fascism, it nonetheless operates in a world in which outright dictatorship isn't viable. Mussolini, Ost warns, didn't become totalitarian until four years after taking power. Fascism, then, is a process. It takes time. Even dystopias require patience. The book is also a manifesto for left counter-politics. Yes, Law and Justice in Poland and Orbán in Hungary have both been voted out, Ost acknowledges. But in Poland, he warns, the Tusk government won power in 2023 and then governed timidly, afraid of alienating the center, failing its own base on abortion and LGBT rights, and then losing the presidential election. So the lesson from Eastern Europe is that economic left populism, not liberal caution, is the best antidote to red pill politics. Mamdani not Starmer. Otherwise the F-word will once again become a reality. Five Takeaways •       The F-Word Has Become Meaningless: Every application of “fascism” to Trump, Orbán, or Meloni is immediately met with the counter: “Are we killing you? Are we throwing you in jail?” And seemingly the matter is put to rest. Ost's argument: the f-word has become a conversation-stopper rather than a conversation-starter. It lets the far right off the hook by setting the bar at Nazi-level violence. The actual threat — the delegitimisation of institutions, the treatment of opponents as traitors, the erosion of democratic norms — is already underway, without the gas chambers that the f-word implies. •       Opponents vs Traitors: The Defining Distinction: In a democracy, you have opponents. You disagree with them, you campaign against them, you try to vote them out. In far-right politics, you have traitors. People who disagree with you are not legitimate participants in a political contest — they are enemies of the nation, people who do not belong, people who are working against the interests of the real people. This distinction — not violence, not the gas chambers, but the redefinition of legitimate opposition as treachery — is Ost's clearest marker of the transition from normal democratic politics to something else. •       Mussolini's Four Years: How Long Before Dictatorship? When Mussolini first came to power, there were still elections. He tried to rig the game — to gerrymander, to use contemporary parlance — and institutionalise his authority. He only turned to outright dictatorship after four years in power. That was a different time. But the pattern — of coming to power through elections and then slowly making it impossible to be removed through elections — is not unique to Italy. Ost argues we may currently be in the equivalent of Mussolini's first four years in several countries simultaneously. •       What Eastern Europe Teaches America: The Tusk Warning: Law and Justice in Poland governed for eight years and was voted out in 2023. The lesson should be hopeful. But the coalition that replaced it, led by Donald Tusk, governed timidly — afraid of doing anything that might alienate the center, failing to deliver on abortion rights and domestic partnerships, and then lost the presidential election. Ost's verdict: a Biden mistake. When the center-left or left comes to power, it must be consequentially left populist — not just different from the right in tone and temperament, but materially different in what it does for regular people. Caution is its own kind of failure. •       Mamdani as Real-World Exhibit A: Ost was writing the book when Zohran Mamdani won the New York City Democratic mayoral primary. Mamdani campaigned explicitly to speak to voters who had voted for Trump — asking why they were moving in that direction and arguing that a universalist left could speak to their material concerns without abandoning minorities. For Ost, this is the model: economic populism that is genuinely redistributionist, that speaks to small cities and rural areas, that is tough on the issues rather than cautious about public opinion. A left that actually stands for something. About the Guest David Ost is an emeritus professor of politics at Hobart and William Smith Colleges.

Carlos Martins joins the New Books Network to discuss his book Fascism: Beyond Hitler and Mussolini (Desassossego, 2022) (in Portuguese Fascismos: Para Além de Hitler e Mussolini), a comparative study of fascist movements across Europe and beyond. Working from a rigorous definition of fascism based on its ideological content, Martins examines eight case studies, analysing these specific manifestations of fascism to identify what they had in common and what separated them. In this conversation, we discuss the problem of defining fascism, the distinctions between fascism and populism and why Martins argues that not every dictatorship or radical right movement should automatically be classified as fascist. The discussion also turns to the Portuguese case, including the Estado Novo, National Syndicalism and the debate surrounding Salazarism's relationship to European fascism. At a moment when the word “fascism” is increasingly invoked in public debate, Martins makes the case for conceptual precision without losing sight of fascism's historical adaptability and political force. The result is a wide-ranging conversation about ideology, political modernity and the uses, and misuses, of language. Learn more about your ad choices.

The result is a wide-ranging conversation about ideology, political modernity and the uses, and misuses, of language. Learn more about your ad choices.

Carlos Martins joins the New Books Network to discuss his book Fascism: Beyond Hitler and Mussolini (Desassossego, 2022) (in Portuguese Fascismos: Para Além de Hitler e Mussolini), a comparative study of fascist movements across Europe and beyond. Working from a rigorous definition of fascism based on its ideological content, Martins examines eight case studies, analysing these specific manifestations of fascism to identify what they had in common and what separated them. In this conversation, we discuss the problem of defining fascism, the distinctions between fascism and populism and why Martins argues that not every dictatorship or radical right movement should automatically be classified as fascist.

Frank welcomes back the prolific Leo Zagami, author of the Confessions of an Illuminati series, for his 2026 debut on the show. They open on the not-quite-a-raid at Tulsi Gabbard's ODNI office, the year-long CIA standoff over MK Ultra and COVID-era documents, and whether next month's hearing will actually pry anything loose. From there it's straight into Leo's lane. His upcoming book, The Vatican's Top Secret Alien Agenda, sits at the center of the conversation, and he previews quite a bit: a 1933 UFO retrieval in Italy, Mussolini, Guglielmo Marconi's suppressed death ray, Jesuit astronomers as the real movers of UFO disclosure, and his claim that popes have had encounters of the second and third kind. He also walks through gatekeepers in the modern UFO movement and why interdimensional is the wrong word for what Timothy Alberino calls extradimensional. Then it gets darker: cyber Satan, the Order of Nine Angles, the corruption of the right of exorcism after Vatican II, Father Amorth, and King Charles announcing digital ID from the throne. Frank closes solo with thoughts on tech bros, the meek inheriting the earth, and a baby coconut on the way.

There's an ancient Roman column in Chicago hidden in plain sight near Soldier Field. It was a gift given by Italian Fascist dictator Benito Mussolini during the 1933-1934 Chicago World's Fair, commemorating a daring transatlantic flight to the fair by Italian Air Marshal Italo Balbo. In a time when controversial monuments get removed, why does this one still stand?

Italian tennis is going crazy and it begs its own special show. For the 3rd straight year I chatted in the Mussolini era auxiliary media center with the Italian journalist with his own outlet UBI Tennis- the prolific Ubaldo Scanagatta and it was a enjoyable deep dive on Novak, the Paolini Errani controversy thats brewing, and the moment Jannik Sinner is having, and the Gaudenzi reign at the top of the ATP. We also discussed the Italian Open and how it's grown- for better and for worse. No one knows more about tennis than Ubaldo and I absolutely love the guy. Please excuse some audio roughness as we were in tough conditions.
