This week on the Mark Levin Show, the broad parameters of the Trump Gaza peace plan are solid and positive. Key positives include: no restrictions on annexing Judea and Samaria (unlike earlier drafts); no automatic grant of a Palestinian state, as it requires an unlikely cultural transformation and uses non-binding language; and U.S. support for Israel to militarily confront Hamas if they reject or sabotage the deal. Later, young American communists believe that true communism has never been tried, despite its history of causing over 100 million deaths. This is due to ignorance and poor history education replaced by propaganda. Every communist regime has been destructive under tyrannical leaders. Democrats are not just the only concern, radio/TV hosts, podcasters and journalists are part of a larger issue. It is unacceptable that many of these hosts, who promote left-wing agendas or toxic conservative, lack a true understanding of the conservative movement, its principles, and its history. William F. Buckley Jr. founded National Review because he recognized the importance of quality journalism, a value that seems to have diminished in today's media landscape. Buckley identified the toxic elements within the conservative party and took extraordinary measures to combat that toxicity and the radical left. Buckley had a profound realization, one that resonates with us today: the destructive influence being wielded to spread hatred and undermine our faith and nation through our media and publications.

Breht went on How The Red Was Won to talk about the current state of the left, the contradictions of American trade unions, American geopolitics, and much more! From the original description: You know him. You love him. It's everyone's favorite Breht O'Shea from such fine podcasts as RevLeft Radio, The Red Menace, Shoeless in South Dakota, and more! We talk about what organizing in the USA looks like 2025 - from unions to the socialist orgs, mutual aid, resisting fascism, and raising anti-fascist kids.Part 2 here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=t-AxFA8SnBU

Note that this conversation took place before Hamas addressed some conditions of President Donald Trump's proposed peace plan and said it agreed to release all remaining hostages. This was the most requested conversation I've ever had, and one of the longest and most challenging. Dave Smith—comedian, podcaster, and libertarian foreign policy critic—joined me for three and a half hours to debate the Israeli-Palestinian conflict and American foreign policy more broadly. We disagree on a lot. Smith recently published a video responding to my analysis of the conflict, and this conversation gave us the chance to unpack those disagreements directly—without dodging the hard questions or talking past each other. We covered Ron Paul's influence on Smith's worldview, whether 9/11 was driven by foreign policy grievances or jihadist ideology, the Iraq War, whether Israel wants peace, what Palestinians actually want, and what American foreign policy in Iran should be. This is what substantive disagreement looks like: long, difficult, and hopefully enlightening. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Ralph welcomes Michael Mann, Professor in the “Department of Earth and Environmental Science” at the University of Pennsylvania and author along with Dr. Peter Hotez of “Science Under Siege: How to Fight the Five Most Powerful Forces that Threaten Our World.” Then we are joined by Martin O'Malley, former governor of Maryland and one time Commissioner of the Social Security Administration to refute all the lies being told about the state of Social Security.Dr. Michael E. Mann is Presidential Distinguished Professor in the “Department of Earth and Environmental Science” at the University of Pennsylvania. He is a co-founder of the award-winning science website RealClimate.org, and the author of more than 200 peer-reviewed and edited publications, numerous op-eds and commentaries, and seven books, including “Science Under Siege: How to Fight the Five Most Powerful Forces that Threaten Our World” (co-authored with Dr. Peter Hotez).It's the five actors that we talk about, the five forces that threaten our world: the Plutocrats, the Petro States, the Polluters, the Propagandists, and yes, the Press, not all media outlets, but many of them, including even what we used to think of as legacy. Objective news outlets like the New York Times and the Washington Post too often engage in what we call performative neutrality, where anti-science positions are placed on an equal footing with the overwhelming consensus of the world's scientists.Dr. Michael MannPeople like to finger point at China, which currently is the largest emitter (of greenhouse gases) because they industrialized much later than the United States, more than a century later. But their trajectory is actually a downward trajectory. They've contributed far less carbon pollution to the atmosphere than we have, and they're taking greater action.Dr. Michael MannThe United States doesn't get to determine the future course of human civilization at this point. It's going to be the rest of the world. All the United States gets to determine is whether it's going to be on the front line of the clean energy transition, the great economic development of this century, whether they're going to be on board or left behind.Dr. Michael MannMartin O'Malley served as Commissioner of the Social Security Administration from December 20, 2023 to November 29, 2024. He previously served as Governor of Maryland from 2007 to 2015, following two terms as Mayor of the City of Baltimore.Once they (the Trump Administration) got rid of the heads of all of the offices of Inspectors General, they started launching these big lies, like the lie that there are 12 million dead people that continue to receive checks. And as Trump said himself to Congress, some of them are as much as 300 years old, which would have had them here for the founding of Jamestown.Martin O'MalleyThey (Republicans) are trying to wreck it (Social Security), wreck its reputation, wreck its customer service, so then they can rob it.Martin O'MalleyNews 10/3/25* Our top story this week is President Trump's chilling speech to the military high command, in which he proclaimed that “America is under invasion from within,” per PBS. Trump went on to say that he plans to use American cities – citing Chicago, San Francisco, and Portland – as “training grounds for our military.” Warning against conscientious objections by the military to this weaponization against domestic opponents, Trump added “I'm going to be meeting with generals and with admirals and with leaders. And if I don't like somebody, I'm going to fire them right on this spot.” Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth, who has recently styled himself Secretary of War, reiterated this message, saying “if the words I'm speaking today are making your heart sink, then you should do the honorable thing and resign.” In terms of actual policy, a new draft National Defense Strategy calls for prioritizing defense of the “homeland,” over potential foreign threats, such as from China, per POLITICO. The administration followed up this declaration with a dystopian deployment in Chicago, where federal agents rappelled down from helicopters to raid a South Side apartment building, arresting Venezuelan migrants and Black American citizens alike. In a statement given to ABC7 Chicago, one man detained by feds stated “They had the Black people in one van, and the immigrants in another.” Illinois Governor J.B. Pritzker decried the presence of “jackbooted thugs roaming around a peaceful downtown,” and demanded federal troops “Get out of Chicago...You are not helping us,” per the New York Times.* Speaking of conflicts abroad, this week Trump unveiled his proposal for a peace deal in Gaza. According to CNN, “The plan calls for Israel to release 250 Palestinian prisoners with life sentences, as well as 1,700 Palestinians detained since the start of the war, in exchange for Hamas freeing 48 hostages.” Once these exchanges have been completed, Israel is to gradually withdraw from Gaza and turn over administration of the enclave to a “Board of Peace,” which will include Trump himself along with former British Prime Minister Tony Blair, in a bizarre historical echo of the British mandatory rule over Palestine. If this process proceeds, it will supposedly create “a path for a just peace on the basis of a two-state solution.” The odds of success however are slim.* In more Gaza news, the Global Sumud Flotilla has been intercepted off the coast of Gaza and Israel has detained the activists on board. Video evidence shows the IDF detaining activist Greta Thunberg specifically. According to Congresswoman Rashida Tlaib, “The Israeli government has illegally abducted over 450 participants of the Global Sumud Flotilla, including nearly two dozen U.S. citizens…We must demand their immediate release and their protection from abuse and torture in Israeli detention. End the siege and genocide of Gaza now.” According to the Flotilla organizers, one of the ships – the Mikeno – got as close as 9.3 miles from the coast, within Gaza's territorial waters, before they lost its signal. While disappointing, given that this is the largest aid flotilla to Gaza in history and came so close to the shore, it seems that at least the flotilla gave fishermen in Gaza the opportunity to go out on the water without interference from the Israeli navy – a crack in the all-encompassing blockade.* Meanwhile, Fox News reports that Israeli intelligence hijacked all cellphones in Gaza in order to forcibly broadcast Prime Minister Netanyahu's United Nations General Assembly speech last week, in which he accused the leaders of western nations who recently recognized the state of Palestine – France, Australia, and the U.K. among others – of being “Leaders who appease evil rather than support a nation whose brave soldiers guard you from the barbarians at the gate,” adding, “They're already penetrating your gates. When will you learn?” Netanyahu's speech was also blasted into Gaza via loudspeakers on the Israeli side of the border. The families of the hostages still held in Gaza released a statement decrying this provocative action, writing “We know from our children…that the loudspeakers were placed inside Gaza. This action endangers their lives, all for the sake of a so-called public diplomacy campaign to preserve [Netanyahu's] rule…He is doing PR at the expense of our children's lives and security. Today we lost the last shred of trust we had in the political echelon and in the army leaders who approved this scandalous operation.”* In Latin America, Trump is planning to bailout Argentina, which has suffered tremendous economic shocks under the stewardship of radical Libertarian President Javier Milei. According to Newsweek, Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent has offered Argentina a, “$20 billion swap line and other forms of assistance to help stabilize the Argentine peso, and said the U.S. remained ‘prepared to do what is necessary' to sustain the ‘important strides' taken by Milei.” This kind of ideologically driven foreign assistance flies in the face of Trump's supposed “America First” policies, but beyond that it has infuriated domestic interests, especially in the agricultural sector. American Soybean Association President Caleb Ragland posted a statement reading, “The frustration is overwhelming…U.S. soybean prices are falling, harvest is underway, and farmers read headlines not about securing a trade agreement with China, but that the U.S. is extending…economic support to Argentina.” This is a particular twist of the knife because following Trump's offer, Argentina lowered export restrictions and sent “20 shiploads of Argentine soybeans to China in just two days.” Republicans representing agricultural interests share this fury. Iowa Senator Chuck Grassley wrote “Why would [America] help bail out Argentina while they take American soybean producers' biggest market???...We should use leverage at every turn to help [the] hurting farm economy. Family farmers should be top of mind in negotiations by representatives of [the] USA.” North Dakota Representative Julie Fedorchak added “This is a bitter pill for North Dakota soybean farmers to swallow.”* Moving on from foreign affairs, this week saw the release of a new batch of Epstein files, demanded by Democrats on the House Oversight Committee and turned over by the Jeffrey Epstein Estate. These files include “phone message logs, copies of flight logs and manifests for aircraft,” along with “copies of financial ledgers and Epstein's daily schedule.” These new releases implicate many big names, including Elon Musk, Peter Thiel, Steve Bannon, and well-documented Epstein associate, Prince Andrew of the British royal family, per the BBC. The release of these files is the latest victory in the campaign to expose everyone involved with Epstein's underage sex ring, a campaign Republicans in government – led by President Trump – have resisted. According to the Hill, Speaker Mike Johnson is refusing to allow the swearing-in of Adelita Grijalva, who was elected last week in a special election to fill the seat vacated by her father's death. In this move, many see an attempt by Speaker Johnson to stave off the discharge petition to release the Epstein files. Grijalva has already committed to signing the petition.* In the wake of the Charlie Kirk assassination, Republicans have hammered the left for what they see as violent rhetoric, with the White House going so far as to classify certain ideas – among them anti-fascism, anti-capitalism and “extremism on migration, race, and gender” – as potentially punishable under domestic terrorism laws. Meanwhile, however, the Arizona Mirror reports a Republican lawmaker in the state has called for the Washington Democratic Congresswoman Pramila Jayapal to be “tried convicted and hanged.” The lawmaker, state Representative John Gillette, was responding to a video in which Jayapal counseled protestors on “non-violent resistance” to Trump's policies. Gillette on the other hand has vocally supported the January 6th insurrectionaries, labeling them “political prisoners” and calling for their release. Asked for comment, Gillette said “The comment is what it is.” For her part, Congresswoman Jayapal has called for “All political leaders, of all parties, [to] denounce” these comments.* Turning to local news, incumbent New York City Mayor Eric Adams has dropped his bid for reelection, Reuters reports. Adams has been mired in scandal of all kinds, including a federal indictment for bribery. Speculation abounds as to why he chose to suspend his campaign now. It is too late to take his name off of the ballot and he declined to endorse any other candidate, making it unlikely that he did so to bolster the chances of disgraced former Governor Andrew Cuomo, who is still continuing his independent bid for the mayoralty despite lagging behind Democratic nominee Zohran Mamdani by a substantial margin. On the other hand, Adams has previously been offered incentives by President Trump to drop out of the race, including potential protection from prosecution and an ambassadorial post in Saudi Arabia. Curtis Sliwa, the Republican nominee, claims “Seven different people,” have offered him a “total of $10 million,” to withdraw from the race, but he adamantly refuses to do so, saying “you can't bribe me, buy me, lease me, I'm not for sale.” This from the New York Post.* Next, on September 25th, Black liberation activist Assata Shakur passed away at the age of 78, per Democracy Now!. Shakur had been convicted of killing a New Jersey state trooper in 1973, though serious doubts remain about her role in the death. She escaped from prison in 1979 and fled to Cuba, where she received asylum in 1984 and continued to maintain her innocence until her death. In 1998, Pope John Paul II visited Cuba and faced calls to demand Assata's extradition to the United States to “face justice” for the murder. In a highly-publicized letter, Assata wrote “The New Jersey State Police and other law enforcement officials say they want to see me brought to ‘justice.' But I would like to know what they mean by ‘justice.' Is torture justice?... When my people receive justice, I am sure that I will receive it, too.” Rest in power, Assata.* Our final story comes to us from, where else, but Hollywood. Variety reports, AI production studio Particle6 has created an AI “actress” who is “named” Tilly Norwood and thereby created a firestorm within the entertainment industry. Tilly's creator, Eline Van der Velden argues that she sees, “AI not as a replacement for people, but as a new tool…Just as animation, puppetry, or CGI opened fresh possibilities without taking away from live acting…nothing – certainly not an AI character – can take away the craft or joy of human performance.” However, SAG-AFTRA – the union representing screen actors – has issued a blistering statement, writing “To be clear, ‘Tilly Norwood' is not an actor, it's a character generated by a computer program that was trained on the work of countless professional performers — without permission or compensation…It has no life experience to draw from, no emotion and, from what we've seen, audiences aren't interested in watching computer-generated content untethered from the human experience.” The statement continues, “It doesn't solve any ‘problem' — it creates the problem of using stolen performances to put actors out of work, jeopardizing performer livelihoods and devaluing human artistry.” This episode is simply the latest clash within the entertainment industry between workers and the rising tide of AI. It will not be the last.This has been Francesco DeSantis, with In Case You Haven't Heard. Get full access to Ralph Nader Radio Hour at www.ralphnaderradiohour.com/subscribe

Donna & Charlie Adelson Behind Bars: Tantrums, Tablets, and Toe Trauma-WEEK IN REVIEW Dan Markel was murdered in 2014 in one of the most shocking custody-related hit jobs in American legal history. Now that two of the key players—Donna and Charlie Adelson—are behind bars, how are they handling it? Spoiler: Not well. In this voice-driven episode of Hidden Killers, we pull the curtain back on life behind bars for the once-powerful Adelsons. Donna's jailhouse meltdown just nine days after her conviction is fully documented in prison logs—loud sobbing, door-pounding, and furious rants about judges and jurors, all while she unknowingly feeds jailhouse informants. Meanwhile, Charlie Adelson, convicted of murder, has his own jailhouse drama. Caught on video by Spill the Crime Tea, Charlie explodes over his big toe being run over by a jail door. He spews racial slurs, berates staff, then folds like a lawn chair when a lieutenant arrives. This isn't a story of redemption. It's the unraveling of a family that thought the rules didn't apply to them. We dig into: – The official jail logs documenting Donna's outbursts – Charlie's unhinged toe tirade caught on camera – What these behaviors tell us about entitlement, narcissism, and collapse – How the Adelsons are adjusting—or failing to—in the harsh reality of incarceration Welcome to the downfall. No more dental dynasty. Just inmate numbers, cold walls, and tablets that barely charge. Watch now and decide for yourself: are the Adelsons victims of injustice, or just finally out of excuses?

The election campaign gets off to an ominous start as Amsterdam puts up billboards with an American accent and Geert Wilders goes rage-canvassing on Twitter. The government bows to pressure to allow a handful of wounded children from Gaza to be flown to the Netherlands for treatment, while coming under pressure to stop sending fighter jet parts to Israel. You'll need a big pile of capital if you want to buy the house in Overijssel where Karl Marx wrote large parts of his seminal work. And in sport, Go Ahead Eagles are the highest fliers in an otherwise miserable week for Dutch football clubs in Europe.

A quiet Friday on https://Ready-Radio.com quickly turns into an eye-opening masterclass on everyday preparedness. John Rush and Bill Anderson kick things off with a discussion about hidden electrical hazards—those underground power lines that can shift with the ground and spark fires without warning. What simple home checks could prevent catastrophe? From inspecting your electrical panel to understanding the importance of a maintenance program, they remind listeners that being “ready” isn't only about end-of-the-world scenarios—it's about protecting your home and family from the small problems that can turn into personal disasters. Transitioning from safety to survival in the financial sense, John and Bill reveal another crisis quietly lurking in American homes: money. Could you cover a $1,000 emergency without borrowing? As they expose the harsh truth that nearly 60% of Americans couldn't, they break down the real economics behind skilled trades, small-business costs, and why labor rates are higher than many realize. From hidden expenses like insurance, fuel, and travel time to the razor-thin margins that keep small businesses afloat, this conversation drives home a powerful message—preparedness isn't just about stocking supplies; it's about financial resilience, foresight, and the ability to weather life's everyday storms.

What's up, everybody? It's Tom Bilyeu, and today we are diving headfirst into the chaos of our current moment—government shutdowns, ballooning deficits, and political gridlock like we haven't seen since the last time Washington came to a standstill. This episode, I'm joined by my co-host Drew, and together we're breaking down what's really at stake when politicians use the American people as leverage—and why true leadership means having the discipline to give people not what they want, but what they actually need. We're also tackling one of the most pressing and misunderstood financial conversations of our time—from the fallout of the government's spending spree to the future of money in a rapidly digitizing world. Along the way, we'll talk Bitcoin, stablecoins, and why understanding digital assets isn't just for Wall Street insiders anymore—it's vital for anyone who wants to thrive in the economy of the future. You're going to leave this episode with a no-nonsense playbook for what to look for in real leaders, how to navigate financial uncertainty, and why it's critical to develop your own point of view—beyond political labels and media noise. This is an episode for anyone who refuses to be a passive bystander in their own life—someone who wants actionable insights to become anti-fragile in uncertain times. So, if you're ready to cut through the BS, challenge your thinking, and set yourself up to not just survive, but win—stick around.

A condemned man stands on a railroad bridge, a noose around his neck, dreaming of escape. Ambrose Bierce's 1891 tale “An Occurrence at Owl Creek Bridge” remains one of the darkest and most unforgettable short stories ever written.Join the DARKNESS SYNDICATE for the ad-free version: https://weirddarkness.com/syndicateTake the WEIRD DARKNESS LISTENER SURVEY and help mold the future of the podcast: https://weirddarkness.com/surveyIN THIS EPISODE: It's Thriller Thursday – and this week I'm bringing you three tales of fiction. I'll share a short story that has been described as "one of the most famous and frequently anthologized stories in American literature" – it's “An Occurrence at Owl Creek Bridge” by the legendary Ambrose Bierce, from 1890. I have a classic creepypasta from 2016 that many people mistakenly believe is a true story because it is so well written. It's “The Strange Case of Edmonson Kentucky” by Joe Terrell. But first, it's a short story of fiction as told by one of the hardest-working writers I know, as she is always posting new stories on Facebook: Christina Skelton.

It's Casual Friday on the Majority Report On today's Show: After denying any knowledge of Project 2025 for his entire campaign, Donald Trump is now bragging about his Office of Management & Budget director and Project 2025 architect Russ Vought's accomplishing the goals he feigned ignorance towards. Former U.S. Representative for New York's 16th Congressional District, Jamaal Bowman joins the program to wrap the week's news. Feds unleash terror on a Chicago apartment building, detaining American citizens including children and elderly folks in zip ties for hours in the middle of the night.

Jamaal reacts to the Ezra Klein / Ta-Nehisi Coates' conversation about Klein's whitewashing of Charlie Kirk.

The federal government shut down this week, leaving thousands of federal employees furloughed. Families who depend on WIC and SNAP could also be at risk if the shutdown prolongs. Since President Trump took office, thousands of federal employees have faced layoffs or resigned themselves.  Conversations around a government shutdown brewed in March, but the final straw for Democrats may have been in August. That was when Russell Vought, director of the Office of Management and Budget, said the House of Representatives would withhold $4 billion previously allocated for foreign aid. Trump blames Democrats for the shutdown. Which party will get their desired outcome here?Ezra Klein, a New York Times opinion writer, said that a shutdown may be exactly what Democrats need to regain power of the legislative branch. But could it jeopardize the party's political future?Also this week, President Trump and Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth gathered global military leaders in Quantico, Virginia, sharing their visions for the newly-named Department of War. This comes after 200 National Guard troops were sent to Portland, Oregon because Trump said the city looked like “World War II.” How do active and retired military members feel about orders to enforce the law in American cities?

The best way to counter lies is the truth. They lie all the time, its why trust in the media is at an all-time low. Republicans are tearing into the media publicly. Illegals mooching off the American healthcare system getting free care is making the care you get more expensive and worse. The cities in America don’t have to be filthy and crime ridden.

The New Discourses Podcast with James Lindsay, Ep. 179 As we recently explored, the Russian national socialist Aleksandr Dugin (https://newdiscourses.com/2025/09/the-russian-national-socialism-of-aleksandr-dugin/) is weird. Said to be Vladimir Putin's "brain," an unlikely claim, he has been publishing extremist and fascist philosophy for decades, much of which has been leaking into American right-wing (Woke Right) thought rather substantially in recent years. In this episode of the New Discourses Podcast, host James Lindsay reads from a short, creepy essay Dugin wrote for the Russian National Bolshevik magazine in 1995, titled "The Gnostic," (https://eurasianist-archive.com/2019/03/09/the-gnostic/) in which he makes the explicit case for following "left-hand path" (black, or Satanic) magic. In fact, he links this "magic" to Communism and Fascism and more. In this episode, Lindsay reads Dugin's bizarre essay and explains his concept of sociognosticism that makes sense of it. Join him to learn about this darkness threatening MAGA and American conservatism. Latest from New Discourses Press!

Brad and Dan examine Pete Hegseth's recent gathering of generals, critiquing his “warrior ethos” rhetoric and highlighting the dangers of his speech that attacked DEI, questioned due process in sexual assault cases, and called for stricter religious and fitness standards in the military. They unpack his fat-shaming and fabricated claims, contrasting leadership with rulership in both Hegseth's and Trump's approaches, which lean on power rather than genuine leadership. The discussion expands to Trump's disturbing remarks about using American cities as military training grounds and framing citizens as enemies, alongside analysis of Project 2025, the looming government shutdown, and Russ Vought's strategy targeting blue states. Brad and Dan also spotlight Judge William G. Young's strong defense of pro-Palestinian speech and his rebuke of Trump's attacks on free expression. With themes of authoritarianism, executive overreach, and the critical role of resistance, the hosts call on listeners to stay informed, resist normalization of these tactics, and engage in the ongoing fight for democracy.

Unveil the truth behind America's media landscape with Joe Oltmann Untamed, a fearless voice challenging the status quo. With years of unflinching commentary and a commitment to exposing corruption. From politics to culture, he dives into the stories corporate media refuses to tell, pushing back against the narratives designed to control what we see, hear, and believe. Joe covers as America faces yet another government shutdown, the driving force behind the gridlock is the Democrats' insistence on tying federal funding to healthcare benefits for illegal immigrants. Instead of prioritizing hardworking American families, veterans, and seniors who rely on critical government services, Democrats are holding the budget hostage to push an agenda that funnels taxpayer dollars to those who entered the country unlawfully. This political brinkmanship not only threatens federal workers and essential programs but also exposes the stark divide in Washington: one side fighting for the rights and resources of American citizens, the other putting the needs of illegal immigrants ahead of the nation's stability.. This is not just another show—it's a call to action. Going Rogue with Joe is a beacon for those who demand transparency and honesty in journalism. Expect raw insights, untold stories, and a fearless reckoning with the forces shaping our nation. If you're ready to challenge your perceptions and ignite a demand for truth, then tune in—because Joe is going rogue.

This week, Secretary of War Pete Hegseth and Donald Trump ranted to the assembled leadership of the U.S. armed forces about fitness, wokeness and the "war within." Hegseth told the generals and admirals that they were too fat, while low energy Trump gave a rambling speech about many things that included using American cities a "training grounds" for military operations. The brass didn't seem amused. In our latest, we give a history of military dissent and civilian-military relations from the Vietnam War era to the Iraq war and talk about Generals David Shoup, Anthony Zinni and Eric Shinseki. We also get into the politics of Trum, Hegseth and today's Pentagon. ——

Armed, masked agents from our federal government raided an entire apartment complex in Chicago the other night, breaking down doors, throwing American citizens out into the streets, and detaining them for hours. The very thing the British monarchy did to us so many years ago. The very thing our founders rebelled against and sought independence from. And it's happening in America again. Hosted on Acast.

On the evening of November 30, 1989, Linda Napolitano awoke in her lower Manhattan apartment to find herself unable to move. She felt as though she was in the presence of other individuals, then she began to lift off her bed and was transported, as though by unseen hands, out her bedroom window several floors up, before being abducted into an unidentified aircraft. Linda Napolitano is one of countless people who claim to have been abducted and experimented on by extraterrestrials; however, she is one of very few whose abduction was witnessed by nearly two dozen strangers in one of the busiest cities in the world. According to ufologist Budd Hopkins, Napolitano's abduction has produced irrefutable evidence of extraterrestrial life, but more importantly, he believes Linda's case is proof of a larger and more insidious plan to eradicate humanity altogether.The Manhattan Alien Abduction case is among a small number of heavily researched and well-documented cases of supposed alien abduction in American history, but it is not without its critics. In the years following Linda's abduction, a dramatic story has unfolded, pitting skeptics and believers against one another in surprising and deeply personal ways.Thank you to the Amazing Dave White (of BRING ME THE AXE PODCAST) for research and writing assistance!ReferencesHopkins, Budd. 1996.
