Ignite the resistance, truth warriors—@intheMatrixxx and @shadygroove, the relentless exposers of Deep State deceptions, charge into Season 7, Episode 192, “James Comey Pleads Not Guilty; Bigger Slam-Dunk Charges Coming?,” airing October 08, 2025, at 12:05 PM Eastern, as the disgraced ex-FBI boss defiantly enters his plea in Alexandria federal court on charges of lying to Congress and obstructing justice over 2020 testimony denying media leaks—indicted last month by a Trump-backed grand jury under U.S. Attorney Lindsey Halligan amid White House demands for accountability, with his team already plotting a dismissal motion claiming "malicious prosecution" while critics decry the irony of Comey swearing not guilty under oath for allegedly lying under oath, fueling speculation on whether this weak defense cracks open the floodgates for ironclad follow-ups tied to Russia hoax origins and Crossfire Hurricane abuses. Bucking MSM narratives painting this as Trumpian revenge, the duo tears into Narrative Setters getting called out for scripting elite cover-ups, Tyler Bowyer forced to defend Turning Point USA amid post-Kirk assassination smears and doxxing scandals targeting student chapters, unpacks fresh Q proofs from year-old deltas aligning eerily with today's headlines like Comey's courtroom drama and border surges, and spotlights Hour 2's must-watch: FBI Director Kash Patel joining Sean Hannity to detail purging corrupt DC insiders and crushing violent crime per Trump's mandate, while questioning federalized troops' role in stopping America's cartel-ravaged zones—not a new play, as history proves with Eisenhower's 1957 deployment of the 101st Airborne to enforce desegregation at Little Rock's Central High amid Arkansas defiance, echoing Tennessee's Civil Rights flashpoints where National Guard federalization quelled mob violence for justice. With real-time X fire on Americans targeted in cartel hellholes and Jesse Watters praising DHS Sec. Kristi Noem's massive results—zero migrant releases for five months straight, 94% crossing drops, and threats to flood Portland with four times the feds if sanctuary sabotage persists—they rally patriots against establishment spin, arming you to demand real accountability from weaponized agencies to border heroes. The truth is learned, never told—the Constitution is your weapon—tune in at noon-0-five Eastern LIVE to stand with Trump!

Exploring how Christian conviction and civic love — inspired by the faith of Willie Faye and Mahalia Jackson's generation — can transcend political tribalism.

In the 291st session of In Class With Carr, we explore the question: Can America Continue? Fresh from a gathering with legendary civil rights attorney Fred Gray, we connect past and present to examine how a US Social Structure grounded and reliant on a global network of unequal labor and exclusion, is speeding its inevitable and perhaps dispositive existential crisis. We juxtapose broadly inclusive Ways of Knowing against the threat of religious extremism and nationalism, the erosion of goals of pluralistic governance, and the desperate advance of metaphors of culture war.

Congress, and not the presidency, used to be the predominant power of the U.S. government. In this interview, we discuss the history of how politics, populism and polarization changed the balance of power in our government.

On October 6, 1995, The California Report's first weekly show went on the air. Today we're celebrating our birthday with a look back at that first show, which explored issues we're still grappling with today, and featured a soundscape that created a roadmap for covering this huge, diverse state.  How a Chinese Laundryman Shaped US Civil Rights From San Francisco The increased number of violent ICE raids and arrests have escalated concerns about the equal protection and due process rights of migrants. Non-citizens won these rights more than a century ago, when two Chinese laundrymen brought their fight against discrimination all the way to the US Supreme Court. Yick Wo vs. Hopkins is just one way early Chinese immigrants helped shape constitutional principles that remain foundational to American democracy. And as KQED's  Cecilia Lei reports, that case still resonates today. A Day in the Life of San José's Rapid Response Network, Built to Resist ICE Fear The Trump administration's aggressive tactics around immigration enforcement have spread fear in immigrant communities. But volunteers across California are staffing hotlines around the clock, and joining rapid response networks to help inform immigrants about their rights. KQED's Carlos Cabrera-Lomeli spent a day with the Rapid Response Network in Santa Clara County. Need Community Support? Dial 'MYSTERY' to Reach San Francisco's Creative Mutual Aid Hotline When you think of mutual aid, you might think of people raising money online to help others in their community with financial emergencies like covering rent or a big debt. Or maybe it's neighbors sharing food or used furniture with each other. Some volunteers in the Bay Area are putting a more creative spin on what mutual aid can look like. KQED's Hussain Khan has more as part of our new series all about the little things people are doing for each other these days, that can mean a lot. Learn more about your ad choices.

Trump once said he wanted generals like the Nazis. Today, at his limp MAGA rally, he made his pitch. Photos show military leaders looking stunned, confused, and struggling not to laugh. His approval ratings are collapsing, especially in swing states, as he flails in an Epstein cover-up implicating Mike Johnson, who's blocking the swearing-in of Arizona's new Democratic representative–the vote that could force a House debate on releasing the Epstein files. Trump is the Frankenstein's monster of a 50-year Christian nationalist plan using the prosperity gospel to turn America into a dictatorship, making him the most dangerous enemy from within. The Seven Mountain Mandate reads like a discarded Lord of the Rings draft where Sauron wins. It's a 50-year plan to bring a strongman like Trump to power and turn America into a dictatorship. Conceived in the 1970s by Bill Bright (Campus Crusade for Christ) and Loren Cunningham (Youth With A Mission), it emerged as a white-rage backlash to Civil Rights, bankrolled by Big Oil. Later, televangelist Lance Wallnau popularized it through Ziklag, a network for Christian nationalists worth over $25 million, and passed the torch to third-generation leaders like Charlie Kirk. Kirk's Turning Point USA targeted Matthew Boedy, a University of North Georgia professor, harassing him for speaking against guns on campus. After being placed on a “watch list,” Boedy began researching and wrote The Seven Mountains Mandate: Exposing the Dangerous Plan to Christianize America and Destroy Democracy. The Mandate's strategy is to dominate seven cultural “mountains”: Religion – Shape faith and morality to normalize fascism. Family – Patriarchal households dictate politics; LGBTQ+ people, feminists, immigrants, and academics are silenced, outlawed, and erased. Education – Raise children in a dominance culture where “might makes right” to normalize fascism. Government – Collapse church-state separation, recasting America as a “Christian republic,” not a democracy. Media – Control the narrative so news becomes propaganda. Arts & Entertainment – Capture Hollywood, TV, even TikTok, using culture as a weapon (i.e., attacks on Jimmy Kimmel). Business – The prosperity gospel – “Jesus wants you to fund my jet” – drew greed-driven donors who built the movement across generations. The goal: capture every cultural sphere until society mirrors their theology. Stopping it requires progressives to build their own generational strategy, rooted in empathy, inclusion, and solidarity.

I was only 7 years old when both MLKJr and RFK were assassinated in 1968. (I've been to the MLKJr Memorial and Museum in Memphis.) But I do still recall the swirl, energy, anger, the horror people felt from their assassinations. Those two mens' respective murders propelled the Civil Rights movement into dominance. No less is happening today with the assassination of Charlie Kirk three weeks ago. And this season of national grief is impelling a revival in the Church. But it won't be a revival like we've seen in the past. No, this revival both stems from and will passionately move toward a cultural and political effect. There's no more "me and my boyfriend, Jesus" kind of private Christianity that will seize our nation's attention. To that end, or flowing from that energy, I reference the method of leadership suggested by Karl Barth. He was a German theologian who criticized the Nazis, and I believe his suggested m.o. is brilliant grist for today's small "o" orthodox, confessing, Christ-glorifying Church. We are in a season of epic historical transformation. Will the Church tap into that, or will the American Church continue to duck and hide? Come think and laugh with me.

Federal workers are either furloughed or working without pay during the government shutdown that started today.And federal officials say Minnesota's inclusion of trans athletes in female sports is a violation of Title IX. The Trump administration announced yesterday it had found Minnesota's high school league and state department of education in violation of civil rights law for policies that allow transgender athletes to compete on teams consistent with their gender.Those stories and more in today's evening update from MPR News. Hosted by Emily Reese. Music by Gary Meister.

EASY LISTENING DEP'T.: This is how Peter Baker decided to respond to the spectacle of the complete collapse of the rule of law, by somehow simultaneously assuming the posture of a kindergarten teacher and of a child sucking its thumb on a sleepy mat. Boy, those Republicans sure wouldn't like it if someone treated them the way that they're treating their opponents right now. Yeah, right. That's why they're trying to fix it so that political power never changes hands again. That's the heart of their entire approach. What even is the use of exploring the dumb hypothetical that the Democrats might prove equally lawless in the future? The real question that demands NEWS ANALYSIS right now is whether if the Democrats do manage to take power again, they will shed their own chronic inhibitions and ignore the hand-wringing of people like Baker, and take swift and decisive action not to emulate crimes of the Trump administration but to punish those crimes decisively, abandoning the presumption going all the way back to Gerald Ford's pardon of Richard Nixon, if not to the violent unwinding of Reconstruction after the Civil War, that the proper way to deal with lawlessness corruption and misrule is to grant the wrongdoers impunity so as not to stir up a fuss and provoke future bad behavior.

DESCRIPTION: What if your vision could reshape the world around you? In a landscape where justice often feels far away and truth is obscured, imagine the power of collective hope and unwavering determination. Picture a future where dignity prevails, and every voice matters—where the stories of those who came before us inspire us to act. Can you see it? This is a call to recognize the strength within our shared struggle and to envision a reality that transcends current limitations.

Send us a text!Recently, a clip from our show about Iryna Zarutska went viral on X. Lots of people chimed in, many in disagreement, many with claims that we are racists, bigots, and yes, antisemites (somehow). Lecrae jumped in to tell us how great black culture is, citing works from the Civil Rights legislation to Toni Morrison. Yes, the same Lecrae who launched the shirt, “I Can Quote Cardi and Corinthians” and who has gone full woke.  We'll talk through common objections and hopefully clarify what we meant—and what we didn't mean by all the things we didn't say. Did you know supporters of the show get ad-free video and audio episodes delivered early and access to our patron exclusive show the After Hours and interactive live streams with Eric and Brian?    https://www.patreon.com/thekingshallThis episode is sponsored by: Armored Haven - full-scale security for any size business.   visit http://Armoredhaven.com/kingshall to receive three months of free monitoring with any new service agreement.Armored Republic: Making Tools of Liberty for the defense of every free man's God-given rights - Text JOIN to 88027 or visit: https://www.ar500armor.com/ Talk to Joe Garrisi about managing your wealth with Backwards Planning Financial.    https://backwardsplanningfinancial.com/Visit KeepwisePartners.com or call Derrick Taylor at 781-680-8000 to schedule a free consultation.    https://keepwise.partners/Small batch, hand-poured candles.

The little sister of one of the Little Rock Nine recalls the terror her family lived through, followed by Robin White, superintendent at the National Historic Site at the time of the 2017 interview.

In this episode, John Stephens and Matt Russell dive into one of the most pressing conversations facing the church today: the rise of Christian nationalism. Together they explore what the term really means, why definitions matter, and how patriotism and faith can be confused or faithfully held in balance.Drawing from voices like David French, Russell Moore, and others, they unpack the dangers of fusing Christianity with political power, trace historical examples from Constantine to the Civil Rights movement, and wrestle with key biblical passages including Israel's demand for a king, Jesus before Pilate, and the temptations in the wilderness.At the heart of the conversation is this question: what does it mean to love your country without compromising your ultimate allegiance to Christ and the kingdom of God?Listen in for a thoughtful, pastoral, and challenging discussion that seeks to help Christians navigate faith and politics without falling into the trap of idolatry or fear.

Synopsis:  As concerns about rolled-back protections grow louder, whistleblowers at HUD have risked it all by going public with allegations that paint a stark picture of systematic regression on equality under the law.This show is made possible by you! To become a sustaining member go to LauraFlanders.org/donateDescription:  Housing discrimination is illegal in the U.S., but every year, the Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) receives thousands of complaints from individuals who believe they are not being treated fairly because of their race, religion, disability and other protected classes. HUD is one of the only free resources available to Americans facing housing discrimination, but a shocking new whistleblower complaint letter released on Monday, September 29, 2025 says the agency is in crisis. Staff was slashed by 70% since Donald Trump took office, some civil rights cases have been abandoned, and political appointees are allegedly overriding legal findings to allow discrimination. These are just some of the claims in the formal complaint letter, which has now been filed through U.S. Senator Elizabeth Warren's office and taken to the press. In this conversation, Laura Flanders speaks to two of the four whistleblowers, HUD civil rights fair housing attorneys, to find out what this story means for civil rights and why they're speaking out now. As fair housing hangs in the balance, Palmer Heenan and Paul Osadebe are organizing union members to uphold their oath to defend the constitution and protect Americans.Guests:• Palmer Heenan: Attorney, HUD Whistleblower; Member, AFGE 476• Paul Osadebe: Attorney, HUD Whistleblower; Steward, AFGE 476 Subscribe to Laura Flanders & Friends on YouTube and podcast platforms to receive bonus interviews like these and our full, uncut conversations.

Universities have become nexuses of protest against US support of Israel in the conflict, and the federal government's response has been to block education funding for schools and targeting activists for deportation. State governments and universities have begun taking their own actions to curtail pro-Palestine sentiments on campus. Nico Berlin has the story.Across Oklahoma, and the country, women are facing unaffordable childcare, rising maternal mortality rates, and a lack of support systems. National problems require national solutions, and Mom Congress, a 501(c)(3) charitable organization, is lobbying for federal legislation to address these gaps. Here's Danielle A. Melton.In May of this year, Oklahoma passed Senate Bill 806, otherwise known as the Food as Medicine Act. The bill aims to expand nutrition services and recognize the importance of food as a contributing factor to public health.

Synopsis:  With attacks on Critical Race Theory gaining momentum, Columbia & UCLA Law Professor Kimberlé Crenshaw joins Laura Flanders to dissect the fight for antiracism in America today.This show is made possible by you! To become a sustaining member go to LauraFlanders.org/donateDescription:  Calling all white people: How many times in the last eight months have you heard the phrase “isn't that illegal?” The problems with our legal system are more conspicuous than ever in 2025, but thought leaders like Kimberlé Crenshaw have been sounding the alarm for decades. Executive Director of the African American Policy Forum, Crenshaw is celebrating the organization's 30th anniversary and joining Laura Flanders in this episode to discuss the challenges ahead. For starters, the Supreme Court has recently legalized racial profiling for ICE deportations, the Trump administration is looking to remove so-called “improper ideology” from US institutions like the Smithsonian, and the president recently suggested domestic violence is not a real crime. Crenshaw is a leading scholar on Critical Race Theory, a Professor of Law at Columbia and UCLA Law Schools, and host of the podcast "Intersectionality Matters!" which is currently releasing a new episode of their series United States of Amnesia: The Real Histories of Critical Race Theory. Join Crenshaw and Flanders as they look at the AAPF's role in advancing intersectional policies to address antiracism, and how they plan to continue that work in this critical moment. Plus, a commentary from Laura on rights and the Right.“To really stand behind this idea of making America great again, you've got to erase the memory of what America was . . . He's going after the history of enslavement. He's going after the history of genocide. He's saying that this kind of history is no longer appropriate for the federal government to officially recognize and historicize.” - Kimberlé Crenshaw“[Conservatives] believe race should not play a role in creating greater access to equality. They do believe race should play a role in deciding who should be surveilled. They do believe in race when it comes to who should be collected up, potentially put on buses and planes and sent out of this country.” - Kimberlé CrenshawGuests:  Kimberlé Crenshaw, Professor of Law, Columbia & UCLA Law Schools; Executive Director, African American Policy ForumWatch the special report on YouTube; PBS World Channel September 21st, and on over 300 public stations across the country (check your listings, or search here via zipcode).

We all know James Baldwin the high priest of Civil Rights, but what about Jimmy B, the extremely horny homosexual? JB was a chain-smoking, vodka-swilling romantic who fell hard and often—usually for straight men he could never have.This week, Bash and his bestie guestie, Clark Moore, crack open Baldwin's chaos: from his Harlem childhood all the way to his retirement villa in the South of France.Along the way we meet the English teachers who found him a pleasure to have in class, revisit the first gay nights in Greenwich Village, and soak in the winter sun at his Swiss twink's chalet.This is a tour of Baldwin's life through his greatest loves.Get ready to talk about:Love with a capital L, and how it was the key to Baldwin's ideas on race, sex, and revolutionThe contradictions of Baldwin's genius—he was a brilliant debater who lived on a bottle a day and a prophet of love, who struggled to love himselfGiovanni's Room, the gay novel he swore wasn't about being gayAnd why his words still influence us today, from antiracists "doing the work" to an almost annual New Yorker article summing up his life, work, or legacy

This conversation delves into the foundational aspects of constitutional law, focusing on the Due Process and Equal Protection Clauses of the 14th Amendment. It explores their historical significance, judicial interpretations, and real-world applications, emphasizing the importance of understanding these concepts for aspiring legal professionals. The discussion also highlights the evolving nature of individual rights and the complexities of judicial scrutiny in contemporary legal challenges.Imagine a world where the government could seize your home without notice or where laws discriminated based on race or gender. These scenarios, reminiscent of dystopian fiction, highlight the importance of constitutional safeguards in American legal history. The Due Process and Equal Protection Clauses are pivotal in protecting against such injustices.Historical Origins and Judicial Interpretation: The 14th Amendment, adopted post-Civil War, reshaped the relationship between individuals and the government. It aimed to secure rights for freed slaves, but its impact extends far beyond, forming the basis for landmark decisions like Brown v. Board of Education and Obergefell v. Hodges. The Due Process Clause, appearing in both the Fifth and 14th Amendments, ensures fairness from both federal and state governments. It has been interpreted expansively, covering life, liberty, and property in ways that affect modern administrative law.Procedural vs. Substantive Due Process: Procedural due process guarantees fair procedures when the government acts against an individual, asking "what process is due?" Landmark cases like Goldberg v. Kelly and Matthews v. Eldridge illustrate the evolving standards of procedural fairness. Substantive due process, on the other hand, protects fundamental rights not explicitly listed in the Constitution, challenging the inherent fairness of laws themselves. This concept has been pivotal in cases like Griswold v. Connecticut and Roe v. Wade.Equal Protection Clause: The Equal Protection Clause promises that no state shall deny any person equal protection under the law. It focuses on who the government treats differently and ensures that any classification is justified by strong constitutional reasons. The clause has been central in cases involving race, gender, and sexual orientation, applying varying levels of judicial scrutiny to assess the fairness of laws.The Due Process and Equal Protection Clauses are dynamic doctrines, continually shaped by societal challenges and judicial interpretation. They not only protect established rights but also provide a framework for future generations to challenge discrimination and assert evolving understandings of liberty. As society changes, these clauses remain vital in demanding justice and fairness.TakeawaysThe fight against injustices is essential to American legal history.The 14th Amendment reshaped the relationship between individuals and government.Due Process and Equal Protection are critical for individual rights.Understanding procedural vs. substantive due process is vital for legal analysis.The Equal Protection Clause prevents purposeful discrimination.Judicial scrutiny varies based on the classification involved.Rational basis review is the most lenient standard for government actions.Strict scrutiny applies to laws affecting suspect classes or fundamental rights.The right to travel encompasses multiple distinct rights.Felony disenfranchisement policies are subject to ongoing debate and reform.Constitutional Law, Due Process, Equal Protection, 14th Amendment, Judicial Scrutiny, Individual Rights, Legal History, Civil Rights, American Law, Supreme Court

“Pull the heart of your work out of your chest and lay it out there for the gods,” podcast guest Samuel G. Freedman told his Columbia Journalism School graduate students on the first day of his final semester after 35 years of teaching. “That's all I'm asking of you. Not much.”   No, not much. And yet what Sam Freedman asked of his students during his tenure as one of our leading journalism educators was everything. Before his retirement this spring, his popular book-writing seminar led to the publication of 95 books by his students. “He's been the godfather to an awful lot of publishing over the years,” noted Grove Atlantic executive editor George Gibson, in a New York Times profile on Sam's career and his legacy in journalism and publishing. Sam was named the nation's outstanding journalism professor in 1977 by the Society of Professional Journalists and was awarded Columbia University's coveted Presidential Award for Outstanding Teaching. A former staff reporter and columnist for The New York Times, his work as appeared in numerous publications, including The New Yorker, The Washington Post, Rolling Stone, Tablet, Salon, and New York magazine.     He is the author of 10 acclaimed books, including The Inheritance: How Three Families Moved from Roosevelt to Reagan and Beyond, a 1997 finalist for the Pulitzer Prize; Into the Bright Sunshine: Young Hubert Humphrey and the Fight for Civil Rights; and, Who She Was: My Search for My Mother's Life, which was reissued in a new edition earlier this year.   Learn more about Samuel Freedman: Website Twitter Please support the sponsors who support our show: Gotham Ghostwriters' Gathering of the Ghosts Ritani Jewelers Daniel Paisner's Balloon Dog Daniel Paisner's SHOW: The Making and Unmaking of a Network Television Pilot Heaven Help Us by John Kasich Unforgiving: Lessons from the Fall by Lindsey Jacobellis Film Movement Plus (PODCAST) | 30% discount Libro.fm (ASTOLDTO) | 2 audiobooks for the price of 1 when you start your membership Film Freaks Forever! podcast, hosted by Mark Jordan Legan and Phoef Sutton Everyday Shakespeare podcast A Mighty Blaze podcast The Writer's Bone Podcast Network Misfits Market (WRITERSBONE) | $15 off your first order  Film Movement Plus (PODCAST) | 30% discount Wizard Pins (WRITERSBONE) | 20% discount

A Gaslit Nation listener once asked me: What's the canary in the coal mine for American democracy? My answer: when they come for the comedians. Because when authoritarians kill the jokes, they kill the dissent. Look at Russia. In Putin's early years, Kukly, a wildly popular political satire by smack-talking puppets, mocked him mercilessly. One of his first moves? Force media consolidation. Suddenly, the show vanished. Fast forward 25 years to today, you can't hold an anti-war sign in Moscow without being arrested.  As The New York Times reported back in 2000: “‘Kukly' is political satire. But that is like calling an ermine a rodent. By turns vicious, obscene, hilarious and knowing, it has long been the most popular television show in Russia. At 10 p.m. on any given Sunday, more than half the nation's sets are riveted on the program.” [Emphasis mine]. Now it's happening here. Trump and the far-right are consolidating media ownership, especially local stations, while evangelicals push their “Seven Mountains Mandate” to seize control of religion, family, government, business, education, arts, and, of course, media. Trump is their “God's imperfect vessel"–like many strongmen featured in the Old Testament, bulldozing what's left of democracy in a white-rage backlash to the Civil Rights movement. Formerly “woke” Disney CEO Bob Iger, who previously denounced Trump's Muslim ban and Florida's anti-gay laws, is now in the crosshairs, pressured by Nexstar and Sinclair, Republican-aligned networks with monopoly-level reach. But Disney did this to itself, and the country, by giving a convicted felon a $15 million “charitable contribution” to his “presidential library” to settle a defamation suit. That surrender paved the way for the widespread mainstream media capitulation helping Trump consolidate power.  Jimmy Kimmel has now been silenced for saying what Gaslit Nation also pointed out: Charlie Kirk's killer came from the same white, male, MAGA gun culture that empowered Trump. That truth cost Kimmel his platform, so far, but thanks to you, our listeners, we can keep saying it. So who rescues us as Trump tries to turn America into Russia? Enter KPop Demon Hunters. Netflix's massive hit–its most watched film–is a reminder that the free market still caters to the people. America's greatest export isn't oil or weapons. It's culture, humor, art. Our comedians are resistance fighters with punchlines. Which means one of the best ways to fight fascism is simple: dictators hate truth and humor. Every single one of us pointing out the truth, and having a damn good time while doing it, will break the fever of this dystopian feverdream. Because pay attention to Kimmel's monologue that got him pulled from air: he goes into length on Trump's Epstein cover-up. Listen here for yourself or in the end of this week's bonus show. Like Gaslit Nation warned, Charlie Kirk's murder is being used as part of the larger Epstein cover-up.  For our Patreon members, this week's lively salon has already been posted, along with the Zoom link for next week's salon.

According to major news outlets, the capital of the free world is under federal occupation by Donald Trump. Here in D.C., the 30-day public emergency has expired and Pam Bondi's “takeover” of the MPD has ended, but National Guard troops aren't going anywhere with an extended deployment to Nov. 30th. Their presence has led to a major reduction in violent crime, but what happens when they vacate? Is this something that could or should be replicated in other cities across the country? Beyond this highly successful stop gap measure, how can we keep our cities safe?Rafael Mangual is the Nick Ohnell Fellow at the Manhattan Institute, a contributing editor of City Journal, and a member of the Council on Criminal Justice. He has authored and coauthored a number of MI reports and op-eds on issues ranging from urban crime and jail violence to broader matters of criminal and civil justice reform.

Mayor Karen Bass is the 43rd Mayor of Los Angeles, a dedicated public servant whose career has been defined by her relentless fight for social justice, equity, and community empowerment. Growing up in Los Angeles during the Civil Rights era, Bass was inspired from a young age to advocate for those without a voice. Before entering public office, she founded Community Coalition in 1990, responding to the crack cocaine epidemic and advocating for criminal justice reform. As mayor, Bass has made historic strides in reducing crime, addressing homelessness, and uniting Los Angeles under inclusive, compassionate leadership, all while confronting and overcoming national scrutiny and federal challenges with courage and clarity.  Takeaways Leadership Rooted in Justice: Mayor Bass's motivation has always been about fighting for justice and equity, shaped by her upbringing during the Civil Rights movement and personal experiences in Los Angeles. She leads with a focus on ensuring the city's wealth and opportunities are accessible to everyone. Action in Crisis and Unity: From declaring a state of emergency on homelessness her first day in office to calling out misinformation in the media, Mayor Bass leads decisively and transparently, uniting diverse communities and refusing to let past mistakes repeat themselves. Truth Over Media Narratives: Throughout heightened media scrutiny and federal intervention, Mayor Bass consistently prioritizes honest communication, directly addressing misconceptions and ensuring the people of Los Angeles—and beyond—hear the real story from their city's leader.  Sound Bites “We have so much wealth and opportunity in the city, and for a segment of the city to not be able to access that, it's the same problem of injustice in the world of plenty.” “It was most important that we address the crisis that was facing Los Angeles. …I declared the city to be in a state of emergency.” “You can do that now and it can be carried as news, whereas in the past it wouldn't even be carried because it was so absurd. So I think it's been very important that I constantly am out communicating what is real and essentially painting the picture of this is Los Angeles.” Connect & Discover Mayor Bass: Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/mayorofla/?hl=en Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/MayorOfLA/ Website:https://mayor.lacity.gov/ YouTube:https://www.youtube.com/@mayorofla

One of the reasons Charlie Kirk was considered "divisive" was that he spoke out against the civil rights laws, which was interpreted as his supporting Jim Crow segregation. Yet, these laws did not increase liberty but rather imposed a new progressive vision on Americans.Original article: https://mises.org/mises-wire/charlie-kirk-and-sacred-totem-civil-rights

Hawk discusses the growing influence of Stephen Miller in Donald Trump's second term and how the assassination of Charlie Kirk is being used to expand political power. From Miller's interviews on Sean Hannity to his alliance with JD Vance, Hawk focuses on the rhetoric, threats, and policies that signal a dangerous escalation against the political left.The video explores Miller's promises to wield the Justice Department, Homeland Security, and other agencies against what he calls “radical left organizations.” Hawk highlights the chilling implications of these threats, the reaction from political leaders such as Gavin Newsom, and the data showing the reality of political violence in the United States.Hawk also looks at Rolling Stone's profile of Stephen Miller, revealing his long history of cruelty, obsession with anti-immigration policies, and Machiavellian role in shaping Trump's agenda. With testimony from Republicans, critics, and journalists, the discussion exposes the fear and admiration Miller inspires in Trump's circle.By the end, Hawk warns that Miller's unchecked power and willingness to weaponize Charlie Kirk's death against political opponents may reshape American democracy in the coming months.

In our mythological retelling of the Civil Rights movement, Martin Luther King, Jr. vanquished the racist apartheid system of Jim Crow in the American South. However, in her groundbreaking new book, historian Jeanne Theoharis argues that King's time in Boston, New York, Los Angeles, and Chicago—outside Dixie—was at the heart of his campaign for racial justice. As the book description lays out, “King of the North follows King as he crisscrosses the country from the Northeast to the West Coast, challenging school segregation, police brutality, housing segregation, and job discrimination. For these efforts, he was relentlessly attacked by white liberals, the media, and the federal government.” In this episode of The Marc Steiner Show, Marc speaks with Professor Theoharis about the MLK Americans have deliberately forgotten, and what this recovered history tells us about how to fight against injustice today. For full show notes and transcript, click here.Credits: Producer: Rosette SewaliStudio Production: David HebdenAudio Post-Production: Stephen FrankFollow The Marc Steiner Show on Spotify Follow The Marc Steiner Show on Apple PodcastsHelp us continue producing The Marc Steiner Show by following us and becoming a monthly sustainer.Sign up for our newsletterFollow us on:Bluesky: @therealnews.comFacebook: The Real News NetworkTwitter: @TheRealNewsYouTube: @therealnewsInstagram: @therealnewsnetwork

Send us a text!Recently, a young Ukrainian woman was murdered on a train in Charlotte by a 14-time black felon. The brutal murder shocked the country, which is finally waking up to the reality that cultural Marxism and the Civil Rights agenda have produced exactly the opposite—more and more violence against the majority demographic. It's not the first time the globalist Marxists have destroyed a nation—Rhodesia and South Africa have already experienced the fruit of liberal democracy's egalitarian push off a cliff of insanity. We'll explore Mandela's dark history, farm murders in South Africa, and how we escape this genocidal hellscape. Did you know supporters of the show get ad-free video and audio episodes delivered early and access to our patron exclusive shows The Deus Vault and After Hours?    https://www.patreon.com/thekingshallThis episode is sponsored by: Armored Haven - full-scale security for any size business.   visit http://Armoredhaven.com/kingshall to receive three months of free monitoring with any new service agreement.Armored Republic: Making Tools of Liberty for the defense of every free man's God-given rights - Text JOIN to 88027 or visit: https://www.ar500armor.com/ Talk to Joe Garrisi about managing your wealth with Backwards Planning Financial.    https://backwardsplanningfinancial.com/Visit KeepwisePartners.com or call Derrick Taylor at 781-680-8000 to schedule a free consultation.    https://keepwise.partners/Small batch, hand-poured candles.
