Unleashed! The Political News Hour with Mayor Deb – Why should anyone listen to these “unelected technocrats, the hedge-fund vampires, the NGO grifters, the media courtesans” adorned in cashmere sweaters and bespoke suits? For far too long, it seems as though the world has been controlled, by way of fear instilled upon humanity, by the power-drunk elite...

8. Guest Author: Victor Davis Hanson. Headline: The Pandemic, Science, and Unelected Authority. Summary: Hanson argues the pandemic response empowered unelected bureaucrats like Fauci to arbitrarily shut down small businesses while protecting large corporations. He criticizes the suppression of the lab-leak theory by globalist elites and notes that lockdowns caused immense collateral damage to children and the working class without scientific justification,.1913 GETTYSBURGH REUNION 50TH ANNIVERSARY

4. Guest Author: Victor Davis Hanson. Headline: The Unaccountable Power of the Deep State. Summary: Hanson warns against the "administrative state," a permanent class of bureaucrats who wield power without democratic accountability, exemplified by regulatory overreach in the raisin industry. He claims this "deep state" actively undermined the Trump administration through "resistance" tactics, viewing themselves as superior to elected representatives.1870 HENRY WARD BEECHER AND HIS SISTER HARRIET BEECHER STOWE

For years, the big spenders in Congress—and the Biden administration—worked together to drive the nation deeper into debt as they wasted taxpayer money on their crazy ESG, DEI far Left agenda. Between the Democrats who just wanna see Trump fail, and the big spender Republicans who want to see any budget cuts fail, Trump has an uphill battle against the “uniparty” when it comes to further progress in the spending fight.  Federal finance is the executive branch's job, but it really comes down to Congress which “passes spending and tax legislation,” explains Chief Heritage Foundation Economist E.J. Antoni, PhD., on today's special video commentary.   “It's high time those legislators actually do something to fix the problem that they themselves helped cause.”

Steve sits down with Jason Hayes, Director of Energy and Environment at the America First Policy Institute, to expose how state agency overreach is harming Michigan's farms, small businesses, and job creators. Hayes breaks down how unelected bureaucrats are using environmental and energy regulations to bypass lawmakers, drive up costs, and make it harder for families to farm, build, and grow businesses in the Great Lakes State. It's a clear-eyed conversation about accountability, local control, and restoring common sense to policies that should serve the people, not suffocate them.

A Portland bureaucrat literally cries on camera and blames capitalism for the city's homelessness crisis—after spending THREE BILLION DOLLARS in five years while homelessness skyrocketed 150-200%. You can't make this up. City Administrator Michael Jordan refuses to mention drugs or mental illness, instead pointing fingers at "wealth distribution" while Portland's streets overflow with addiction and untreated mental health crises. Meanwhile, other cities that don't coddle the homeless industrial complex somehow manage just fine without spending billions on failed policies. Portland spent $700+ million in a single year and saw homelessness jump 67% in two years. Their response? Cry, blame capitalism, and ask for more taxpayer money. No accountability, no mention of drugs or mental health, just progressive ideology running the city into the ground while businesses and residents flee. Is anyone surprised that treating symptoms instead of root causes doesn't work? How many more billions will they waste before admitting their housing-first, harm-reduction approach is a catastrophic failure? Subscribe for more government accountability and policy reality checks that the mainstream media won't give you.

THE ADMINISTRATIVE STATE AND UNELECTED POWER Colleague Victor Davis Hanson. Hanson describes the "administrative state" or "deep state" as a permanent class of unelected bureaucrats who possess vast power without accountability to voters or Congress. He asserts that these officials, believing their expertise gives them moral authority, actively "resisted" the Trump administration through leaks and bureaucratic sabotage, viewing themselves as superior to elected leadership. He cites the "raisin police" as a specific example of how this regulatory state can tyrannically control the private property and labor of citizens. NUMBER 4

COVID-19 AND THE EMPOWERMENT OF UNELECTED BUREAUCRATS Colleague Victor Davis Hanson. Hanson asserts that the COVID-19 pandemic empowered unelected bureaucrats to enforce lockdowns that disproportionately crushed the middle class while enriching large corporations and the "Zoom class." He claims the scientific consensus was manipulated to protect China regarding the virus's origins and that early dissenters who questioned the efficacy of lockdowns and masks have since been vindicated. The response highlighted a deep divide between the "essential" working class and the insulated elites who managed the crisis from safety. NUMBER 8

Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson argued during oral arguments in Trump v. Slaughter that presidents shouldn’t be allowed to fire experts—scientists, economists, doctors—leading independent agencies, asserting such agencies “should not be in presidential control.” Justice Brett Kavanaugh harshly rejected her stance, defending executive authority and congressional accountability.

For a long time, the bureaucracy--in all its elitist, meritocratic glory--has taken a great deal of the credit for Japan's postwar economic miracle. But how much of that credit does it actually deserve? Plus, some ruminations on the post-1990s fate of the bureaucracy and its general history. Show notes here.

This week: the Meiji Bureaucracy, in all its glory. How did the system actually work? What sorts of people did it attract? And what happened when the United States tried to reform the system after 1945? Show notes here. 

Japan's political scene is changing—from new parties rising in visibility to historic moments in national leadership—so the Krewe is bringing you a timely crash course. Political analyst Tobias Harris (Founder & Principal of Japan Foresight) joins the pod to break down the foundations of Japan's government system, how it compares to the U.S., and why voters view politics the way they do. We explore the major and emerging parties shaping the landscape, the issues driving debate today, and how international pressures and global events influence domestic policy. Tobias also sheds light on the media's role in shaping public perception and political accountability.------ About the Krewe ------The Krewe of Japan Podcast is a weekly episodic podcast sponsored by the Japan Society of New Orleans.

Has America Been Hijacked by Its Own Extremes? The Truth, They Don't Want You to Hear#GoRight with Peter Boykin CommentaryDivide the Nation: How Extremism Stole the People's VoiceThis full length #GoRight News feature breaks open one of the biggest problems in America today. Not foreign threats, not invisible enemies, but the extremes inside our own borders that have hijacked the voice of We the People. Inspired by the song Divide the Nation, Peter Boykin delivers a powerful monologue exposing how both major parties abandoned unity, turned outrage into a business model, and pushed Americans into a political battlefield designed to keep the public divided and the elite in control.

In America, when we think of bureaucracy, it doesn't conjure the best associations. In Japan, meanwhile, the bureaucracy has a long history as one of the central organs of the state. So, how did that happen, and why has the bureaucracy--rather uniquely among Japanese institutions--survived as long as it has? Show notes here. 

Polarization within the Democratic Party began during the late 1960s counterculture era.   Some political proposals, like Bernie Sanders', have unintended consequences like job losses due to automation.   AI is poised to significantly disrupt socialist agendas by allowing top performers to rise quickly while those with no ambition are left behind.    Some children of successful entrepreneurs embrace socialist views, contrasting with their parents' work ethic and ambition.   Conservatives now act as the anti-establishment force, while the 1960s hippies have grown up to become the bureaucracy.    The education system created a culture of envy and victimhood, especially among younger generations.   Losing government employees weakens Democrats' ability to maintain policies that primarily benefit them.   Most renewable energy projects, like solar and wind, depend heavily on taxpayer support to remain viable.

What happens when powerful insiders face public scrutiny—from John Bolton's indictment to Bill Gates' climate comments and the socialist plans threatening America's largest cities? Today on https://RushToReason.com, John Rush, Andy Peth, and guests pull back the curtain on political agendas, media manipulation, and the growing divide inside the Democratic Party. Are billionaires rewriting the climate narrative? Could new labor laws give bureaucrats control over private business? And what does all this mean for the future of freedom and the economy? Tune in and decide for yourself.

In this episode of The Winston Marshall Show, I sat down with Hillel Neuer, Executive Director of UN Watch, to expose the corruption and hypocrisy within the United Nations and how it has become one of the world's biggest enablers of antisemitism and terror.From the Soviet Union's 1975 campaign declaring “Zionism is racism” to today's Hamas apologists like Francesca Albanese, Neuer reveals how the UN was captured by authoritarian regimes and weaponised against Israel. He details how organisations like UNRWA have been infiltrated by Hamas operatives, turning schools and aid programmes into fronts for jihad — all funded by Western taxpayers.Neuer explains why the so-called “rules-based international order” never truly existed, how the Human Rights Council became a haven for dictatorships, and why Britain and Europe continue to bankroll organisations that indoctrinate children to hate.A shocking and essential conversation on the UN's betrayal of its founding principles, the persistence of antisemitism in international institutions, and the urgent need for moral courage and reform in the West.-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------To see more exclusive content and interviews consider subscribing to my substack here: https://www.winstonmarshall.co.uk/-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------FOLLOW ME ON SOCIAL MEDIA:Substack: https://www.winstonmarshall.co.uk/X: https://twitter.com/mrwinmarshallInsta: https://www.instagram.com/winstonmarshallLinktree: https://linktr.ee/winstonmarshall----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------Chapters 0:00 Introduction2:59 Francesca Albanese and the UN's Inconsistencies 5:16 Albanese's Support for Hamas and Anti-Semitism8:03 The UN Human Rights Council and Its Members 11:00 The UN's Political Nature and the ICJ 13:24 The UN's Decline and the Soviet Influence17:17 The 1975 UN Resolution on Zionism29:52 UNRWA's Role and Its Radicalisation 34:24 UNRWA's Operations and Corruption52:15 The Need for De-Radicalisation and Reform 55:04 The Role of the UN and Future Reforms Hosted on Acast.

Accusations of Democratic Extremism Ben and Sen Cruz call out Democrats for using inflammatory language (e.g., calling Republicans “fascists,” ICE “Gestapo,” or U.S. politics a “supervillain convention”). They argue this rhetoric contributes to real-world violence, citing examples like the assassination of Charlie Kirk, attacks on ICE facilities, and other incidents. ICE and Law Enforcement The segment focuses on how Democrats describe ICE in terms linked to Nazi Germany, slavery, and authoritarian regimes. The commentary frames these descriptions as dangerous because they demonize law enforcement and allegedly inspire violence against officers. Government Shutdown Hypocrisy The discussion highlights Democrats’ past opposition to government shutdowns (using 2018 quotes) and contrasts it with their alleged role in a current shutdown. The speakers accuse Democrats of hypocrisy, noting they once said shutdowns hurt “everyday Americans” but are now engaged in one themselves. Violence and Ideological Conflict Ben and Sen Cruz emphasize left-wing violence, referencing BLM protests, campus antisemitism, riots in Los Angeles, and assassination attempts. They contrast this with what they describe as conservative restraint, claiming the right condemns violence universally while the left often encourages or celebrates it.

On September 15, the Oregon Department of Energy (ODOE) released its 2025 Biennial Zero-Emissions Vehicle Report, revealing that Oregon is far behind on its goal of purchasing 250,000 “zero emissions vehicles” (ZEV) by 2025. The report was established in 2019 by SB 1044 to push ZEV adoption.As of May 2025, 119,850 such vehicles were registered in Oregon, equaling 3.2 percent of the total vehicle fleet. Of those, only 84,636 were true zero-emission vehicles powered entirely by a battery. The remaining 35,214 vehicles were plug-in hybrids, which still rely on gasoline.These numbers show that we've reached 34 percent of Kate Brown's arbitrary EV Adoption Targets established during her era. Even more ambitious goals were set by ODOE for 2035, stating “at least 90 percent of new cars sold will be zero-emission vehicles.”Two obvious reasons come to mind for this failed goal. For starters, EVs cost more than traditional vehicles—a good deal more. For medium– and heavy-duty vehicles the purchase price can be double or triple the price of a diesel or gasoline powered vehicle. In practical terms, finding or installing a charging station can be difficult or expensive, making long-distance trips a challenge to plan.Few people will notice this policy failure because few really care about electric vehicles. The ZEV report is just one example of political elites telling us what to do and then being ignored.Will the Oregon Department of Energy learn from their failure and leave us alone? No. That's why they work for the government. But if you like your car, gas powered or hybrid, just keep it. Bureaucrats can't make you buy something you don't want and can't afford.

Public schools keep adding more administrators while student performance stagnates—and teachers see little benefit. In this episode of Disunion: The Government Union Report, host David Osborne sits down with Corey DeAngelis and Christos Makridis to unpack their research on how teachers unions drive administrative growth at the expense of classrooms.Corey and Christos explain why student enrollment has stayed flat while administrative staff has ballooned nearly 95% since 2000, how union incentives fuel this growth, and why teacher salaries have barely budged in decades. They also discuss the impact of right-to-work laws, the fallout from the Supreme Court's Janus decision, and the role of school choice and teacher freedom in breaking the cycle of waste and misaligned priorities.From tire-slashing intimidation tactics to billion-dollar funding battles, this conversation reveals the true cost of union power—and what it will take to put students and teachers first.

Apple changed how we use technology. Grameen changed how the poor use money.From one man's frustration in famine-stricken Bangladesh to a global revolution in microcredit, Muhammad Yunus turned a $27 experiment into one of the world's most powerful engines of poverty reduction.He wasn't supposed to succeed. Banks refused him. Bureaucrats mocked him. Critics swore the poor could never repay loans.But Yunus proved everyone wrong.From the paddy fields of Jobra to the slums of Chicago, Grameen spread an idea that dignity, not charity, was the path out of poverty. Along the way, it became more than a bank. It became a movement.This is the story of Grameen Bank.

In this Labor Day episode of The P.A.S. Report Podcast, Professor Nick Giordano exposes how America's federal bureaucracy has been hijacked by ideology and activism. From DOJ employees throwing food at National Guard troops to a CDC official resigning over politics disguised as science, Professor Giordano reveals how unelected bureaucrats increasingly see themselves as policymakers rather than civil servants. Backed by studies showing overwhelming partisan bias and donation data proving federal employees lean almost entirely in one direction, he connects the bureaucratic takeover to the same ideological capture we have witnessed in America's schools. The result is a dangerous cycle of government weaponization and cultural indoctrination that undermines trust, accountability, and the very foundation of our Republic. Episode Highlights DOJ and CDC employees choose ideology over duty, exposing a weaponized government. Studies reveal a partisan imbalance among federal bureaucrats, 95% liberal views, 84% of donations to Democrats. The parallel between bureaucratic activism and the ideological takeover of America's schools and universities.

Tom Korski, Managing Editor of Blacklock's Reporter (blacklocks.ca⁠), joins Alex Pierson to discuss: The “blackface” firing overturned: A labour board has overturned the 2021 dismissal of a Toronto schoolteacher who wore a Halloween costume that unintentionally resembled blackface. The arbitrator ruled the appearance was inadvertent, citing a question the teacher was asked: whether he was aware of Justin Trudeau's own blackface controversy. Unproven organ‑donor strike threat: Labour Minister Patty Hajdu's claim that a legal strike by 10,000 Air Canada flight attendants jeopardized deliveries of life-saving medications and organ tissue could not be substantiated—raising concerns she may have fabricated the scenario to justify strike restrictions. blacklocks.ca “Sexy drag” at Pride Week: A provocative scheduling choice for public service Pride week—featuring a “sexy drag rock star” at a workday bingo event—raises questions about appropriateness and cost, given that the internal notice did not disclose expenses. Widening tax auditors' powers: Proposed amendments to the Income Tax Act would empower Canada Revenue Agency auditors with new tools—allowing them to impose daily $50 fines and to compel oaths under threat of perjury—to enhance audit “efficiency and effectiveness.” Parks Canada corrects PM record: Parks Canada rushed to designate former Prime Minister Brian Mulroney as a national historic person, after it emerged that his Liberal predecessors had been honored much more promptly. The delay of 25 years—revealed by the Historic Sites and Monuments Board—prompted the belated correction. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Undisputed King of Stuff and Sink the Rising Sun author Jon Gabriel fills in for Jim on Thursday's 3 Martini Lunch. Join Jon and Greg as they applaud President Trump for securing multiple peace agreements, expose the Biden administration's blatant politicization of FEMA, and blast a Florida high school for suspending its football coach  (a longtime NFL quarterback) for ridiculous reasons.First, they applaud the Trump administration for brokering a peace deal between Armenia and Azerbaijan after a decades-long conflict that involved the appalling slaughter of many Armenians. The deal marks the fourth peace agreement the Trump administration has facilitated this year. Jon and Greg criticize the media for providing so little coverage of these peace agreements and discuss Trump's very different approach to foreign policy.Next, they recoil at reports that the Biden administration's priority at FEMA was to register and mobilize voters rather than providing disaster relief. The reports follow stories from 2024 that FEMA did not contact hurricane victims who had Trump signs in their yards.Finally, they fume as NFL quarterback Teddy Bridgewater was suspended from his high school coaching job for such dastardly acts as paying for Ubers to take his players home through rough neighborhoods, making sure they were well fed, and paying for football camps out of his own pocket. As a result, Bridgewater is now back in the NFL and unable to coach those kids. Leave it to bureaucrats to ruin a good thing.Please visit our great sponsors:Upgrade your skincare routine with Caldera Lab and see the difference.  Visit https://CalderaLab.com/3ML and use code 3ML at checkout for 20% off your first order.Support your health with Dose Daily.  Save 25% on your first month when you subscribe at https://DoseDaily.co/3ML or enter code 3ML at checkout.

The concept of government is under attack. In the United States, Donald Trump has fired tens of thousands of federal workers; ignored congressional statutes; insulted judges; and allowed Elon Musk, the world's richest man, access to sensitive government information in a slash-and-burn campaign against the US government. In June 2025 Michael Lewis, the renowned author of bestselling non-fiction masterpieces including Moneyball, The Big Short, Flash Boys and Liar's Poker, came to the Intelligence Squared stage to tell the inside story of how the Trump administration is dismantling the government and how potentially disastrous the consequences for us all might be. Drawing from his new collection of essays Who is Government? The Untold Story of Public Service, Lewis argued that we must remember the often overlooked ways government officials do work that is deeply consequential to our lives. He shared impactful stories of public service, such as the story of a coal miner devoted to making mine roofs less likely to collapse and an Internal Revenue Service agent fighting tax evasion like a character straight out of a crime thriller. --- If you'd like to become a Member and get access to all our full ad free conversations, plus all of our Members-only content, just visit intelligencesquared.com/membership to find out more.

LIVE SHOW TICKETS HERE! The Brainiac Butcher & Presidential Plot Twists In this delightfully disturbing episode of The Box of Oddities, Kat and Jethro dig up the brain of Edward H. Rulloff—literally. Once hailed as a linguistic genius, Rulloff also had a slight… homicidal streak. Turns out, being brilliant doesn't mean you aren't also a total sociopath. Come for the criminal mastermind, stay for the post-mortem brain measurements. Then, we ask the question no one seems to answer honestly: What exactly do U.S. presidents do after leaving office? The answer: anything from eradicating Guinea Worm infestation to distilling whiskey. Some post-presidential lives are more bizarre than their time in office—and that's saying something. If you're into true crime, presidential weirdness, or unusually large brains in jars, you need this episode in your life. #TrueCrimePodcast #WeirdHistory #BoxOfOddities #PresidentialTrivia #StrangeButTrue #BrainInAJar Learn more about your ad choices.

Before Kash Patel, Dan Bongino and Robert F. Kennedy, Jr. were prominent members of the Trump Administration (FBI Director, FBI Deputy Director and Health and Human Services Secretary, respectively), they were conspiracy theorists. But now that these men hold positions of power in the government, the various conspiracies they pushed are coming back to haunt them. Because their longtime supporters want them to act on all the wild claims they made. Will Sommer, a senior writer at The Bulwark and author of the 'False Flag' newsletter, talks about the tension within the online community that propelled these men to power.And in headlines: President Donald Trump issued a bunch of pardons for tax cheats, Elon Musk said the GOP's 'Big Beautiful Bill' undermines the work he did at DOGE, and White House Deputy Chief of Staff Stephen Miller reportedly wants more deportations.Show Notes:Check out Will's newsletter – www.thebulwark.com/s/false-flagSubscribe to the What A Day Newsletter – https://tinyurl.com/3kk4nyz8What A Day – YouTube – https://www.youtube.com/@whatadaypodcastFollow us on Instagram – https://www.instagram.com/crookedmedia/For a transcript of this episode, please visit crooked.com/whataday
