The Context of White Supremacy welcomes Admitted Racist Stacy Horn. Classified as a White Woman, Horn is a New York native, prolific author and cat lover. A listener found her 7th book, The Killing Fields of East New York: The First Subprime Mortgage Scandal, a White-Collar Crime Spree, and the Collapse of an American Neighborhood, and gave it a surprising endorsement. Horn chronicles how Race Soldiers in all areas of people activity targeted the black and non-white populations of East New York. White bankers, White enforcement officials, White government officials, White realtors, White enforcement officers all schemed to devastate attempted black families who just wanted to pay market value for housing. Horn makes a point of regularly reminding listeners that White people do not orchestrate systemic looting campaigns against poor White people. This sort of terrorism is reserved for black people. Gus thought it was massively important that many of the Racists in this crime are White people who claim to be “jewish.” Gus T has been told more times than he can recall that black people and White people who allege to be “jewish” are supposed to be homies in countering Racism and definitely not the terrorist with their foot on our neck and hand in our pocket. Importantly, Gus T. asked Ms. Horn if all White people are Racist. She responded by saying that her mom did her best to not be Racist. But... she still referred to her black "friend's" new child as a "boy." Moments being politely corrected, Horn hopped on the subway and branded a group of black male teens as grizzled, middle-aged looters and potential rapists. She admitted to cowering in her seat to hide from the privileged negro train riders. After moments of cowering, she realized they were just harmless black teens being children - not rapists. So, even she is Racist. Gus did think we were going to have a brief outburst about President Lyndon B. Johnson being a White Man who was not Racist. Vietnam shut that down quickly. #WhiteSupremacyPays #TheCOWS17Years INVEST in The COWS – http://paypal.me/TheCOWS Cash App: https://cash.app/$TheCOWS CALL IN NUMBER: 720.716.7300 CODE 564943#

On this episode: the collapse of US-Iran ceasefire talks; The U.S. is demanding the same things at the negotiating table that it failed to achieve through bombing—regime change, no missile defense, and control of the Strait of Hormuz. Also, my other show, *Unredacted Tonight*, is being forced to end after just two more episodes. All that and more! My comedy news show, Unredacted Tonight, airs every Thursday at 7pm ET/4pm PT. My livestreams are on Mon and Fri at 3pm ET/Noon PT and Wednesday at 8pm ET/5pm PT. I am one of the most censored comedians in America. Thanks for the support!

Is the media exposing the truth—or just taking out one of their own? And if a Democrat goes down, is it ever really about accountability… or just clearing the field for the next one up? The fellas—Josh Holmes, Michael Duncan, and John Ashbrook (with Comfortably Smug out on assignment)—jump straight into the Eric Swalwell implosion with special Guest Ben Domenech. What's the deeper game being played behind the scenes? Because this isn't just a scandal—it's a case study. Allegations pile up, the media suddenly “discovers” what they already knew, and a rising Democrat gets wiped out overnight. So the real question is: why now… and who benefits?The fellas break it all down—how power actually works inside the Democratic Party, why California is the ultimate prize, and how the media decides who survives and who gets buried.In this episode…The Swalwell scandal and the perfectly timed political takedownWhy media attacks on Democrats always serve another DemocratCalifornia's outsized influence on national policy—and why it mattersHow internal Democrat power struggles are shaping the future of the party PLUS, AN INTERN RESIGNS LIKE HE'S A CABINET SECRETARY—AND IT'S EXACTLY AS RIDICULOUS AS IT SOUNDS. And it only gets better. The fellas dive into the broader collapse of Democrat messaging, the struggle to win back young male voters, and why some of the loudest voices shaping the party today are completely out of step with everyday Americans. Then it's onto Iran, global energy politics, and the kind of high-stakes chess match most of the media refuses to explain.Special Guest:Ben Domenech (The Daily Wire)– The future of conservative media and opinion writing

    There are two meetings today to move forward on the Royals building a new stadium at Crown Center and we are getting a lot more details of what that district will look like by 2030.  The Parks and Rec board will vote to give the city manager authority to negotiate a lease with the team while the City Council meets to set up a schedule to move forward to approval of $600 million.  It's feeling like go time!    Kansas governor Laura (Karen) Kelly used her veto 25 times this legislative session but the good news is a whole bunch of them were overridden by a supermajority.  Good news... the protests at public schools are about to go away as we've known them.    Eric Swalwell's fall from grace has been years in the making, but, holy smokes is this getting ugly.  There's video everywhere... so much so it's like watching Hunter Biden all over again.      After Trump blocked the shipping ports in Iran, ships all over the world are headed to the Gulf of America.  It's incredible.  At least 125 empty ships are headed here to fill up 2 million barrels ON EACH SHIP.  Yes, that's $200 million worth of oil we are selling to 120 more ships.    When I saw the photo of the charred and pretty much destroyed Orion capsule our astronauts returned home in, I only asked one question.  You may be asking the same thing.    Chiefs receiver Rashee Rice posts the most hilarious post in Chiefs history as he suggests he will be looking for a new contract that pays him like he's the number one receiver in the NFL.  This dude has issues.    FIFA is working another bait and switch on tickets and Arrowhead and nobody can do anything about it.  Governor Kehoe is sending the National Guard and State Troopers to KC for the World Cup and I missed quite a chance to buy a piece of expensive memorabilia for a song a decade ago.

Two investigations. Two collapsing systems. One retired FBI Special Agent connecting the patterns.In Tucson, the investigation into Nancy Guthrie's disappearance has been systematically undermined by the leadership decisions of a sheriff now facing unanimous no-confidence from his deputies, a board threatening removal under oath, a $2 million federal lawsuit alleging political retaliation, and a disciplinary record allegedly concealed for over four decades. The crime scene was released too early. The doorbell footage was declared unrecoverable until the FBI found it. The lead sergeant had reportedly never worked a homicide. Nancy remains missing. No arrests have been made.In Arkansas and Florida, Joseph Duggar faces life felony charges for the alleged molestation of a child. He and his wife face separate charges. Investigators reportedly found exterior-mounted locks on bedroom doors. Court records have been restricted. CPS has expanded beyond the immediate household. And the system of authority and silence that allegedly kept families from reporting to law enforcement is fracturing as former loyalists cooperate with investigators.Retired FBI Special Agent Jennifer Coffindaffer examines the investigative architecture of both cases — the chain-of-custody implications in Tucson, the multi-state jurisdictional complexity of the Duggar case, and the behavioral patterns of leaders and institutions that prioritize self-preservation over the people they're supposed to protect.The throughline isn't coincidence. It's structural. When the people in charge are the ones who failed, the investigation has to fight two battles — solving the case and overcoming what leadership did to it.Join Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

What happens when everything you thought was true gets challenged? In this episode, we dive into the psychological shock of confronting conflicting information, media trust, and political narratives. From Russia collusion to impeachment claims, the conversation explores how information is shaped—and what it feels like when that version of reality starts to crack.

Volkswagen of America released its sales figures for Q1 2026 and the results were mixed. Last week the automaker announced that it was going to stop assembling the ID.4 electric SUV in Chattanooga, Tennessee and retool to focus on the next-generation Atlas for model year 2027. Well, now, it's pretty clear why. Top manufacturing news: Slate Auto Raises $650M to Make $25,000 TrucksPodcast: Car Paint Gets Security Detail; Tyson Loses Bacteria Case; Stronger Ban on Chinese CarsBuyers Fret as Average New Car Cost Nears $50,000Wind Turbine Maker Sued After Catastrophic Collapse, Terminated Contracts According to VW's sales figures, the company sold 7,663 ID.4s in Q1 2025. Last quarter told a different tale, with a mere 338 ID.4s sold—a drop of 95.6%. Across the board, sales dipped 16.1% year-over-year, but there were some wins. The Tiguan LWB saw an increase of 55.2% and the Golf R sedan increased 4.7%, though the volumes were so low it was just a 36-unit increase. #Volkswagen #EVNews #ElectricVehicles #AutoIndustry #CarSales #ManufacturingNews #EVMarket #AutomotiveTrends #ID4 #IDBuzz #Atlas #CarMarket #AutoSales #IndustryNews #FutureOfCars #EVTransition #BusinessNews #SupplyChain #AutoIndustryNews #MarketTrends

Vice President JD Vance just dropped the bad news — after an intense 21-hour face-to-face negotiation at the luxury Serena Hotel in Islamabad, the United States and Iran have failed to reach a peace agreement to end the six-week war that has rocked the Middle East. The high-stakes talks, the first direct high-level meetings between the two nations in over a decade, broke down when Iran refused to give a firm commitment to abandon its nuclear weapons ambitions. Iran, in turn, demanded full control of the Strait of Hormuz, the right to continue uranium enrichment, no limits on ballistic missiles, and war reparations. With the fragile two-week cease-fire now hanging by a thread, the risk of renewed fighting is rising fast. Vance called it the U.S.'s "final and best offer" — will this lead to escalation or more rounds of diplomacy?What do you think happens next? Drop your thoughts below

A.M. Edition for April 13.

Orban and Authoritarianism Lose in Hungary. Artemis is Home. The Draft Hits Home. Kamala Harris Wants to Try Again. Trump at UFC. Real Time with Bill Maher Recap.  President Trump has escalated his rhetoric to a global scale, launching a stunning series of attacks against Pope Leo, labeling the religious leader "weak on crime" and "terrible for foreign policy." As the 2026 political landscape grows increasingly volatile, host Paul Rieckhoff breaks down why these attacks are driving a historic exodus of Catholic Republicans from the party and why the Pope may be the ultimate "Independent American." But the rhetoric isn't the only thing heating up; following the collapse of peace negotiations, Trump has announced a naval blockade on Iran. Rieckhoff, a combat veteran, explains why this move is an undeniable act of war under international law and issues a blistering call for Congress to end its "dereliction of duty" by holding a formal vote on the conflict. This episode also explores a massive shift in the global fight for democracy as Viktor Orbán and authoritarianism suffer a major defeat in Hungary—a development that could be the "tipping point" for Ukraine's survival. From the rising conversation surrounding a national draft being discussed at Coachella to the "monocultural moment" of the Artemis II moon landing, we're cutting through the partisan heat to bring you the light. Plus, a look at the latest Democratic stumbles, including the Eric Swalwell scandal and Kamala Harris's potential 2028 maneuvers.

This episode is presented by Create A Video – After 21 hours of talks over the weekend, the ceasefire negotiations ended with no deal. In response, President Trump ordered a naval blockade on the Strait of Hormuz to block all ships going to or coming from Iran. Josh Wikoff runs the Twitter account Inside Israel Intel and is the author of Contested Land, Uncontested Truth: The Essential Guide To Israel's Legitimacy. He argues this is an attempt by the USA to apply maximum pressure on the regime that hopes it can survive by allowing more time to pass.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-pete-kaliner-show--6946691/support.Subscribe to the podcast All the links to Pete's Prep are free!Get exclusive content here!Media Bias Check: GroundNews promo code!Advertising and Booking inquiries: Pete@ThePeteKalinerShow.com

New York's socialist Mayor Zohran Mamdani just signed an emergency order locking Americans out of freely celebrating the 250th anniversary of America in Times Square because the World Cup matters more than the July 4th ball drop. No big crowds for the country that invented freedom of assembly, but endless migrant shelters and anti-white “equity” offices get a free pass. This isn't about safety; it's by design from a mayor with open contempt for American pride, love, and hope. While the left screams “racist” at anyone waving the flag, they push DEI, CRT, and “racial equity” departments that openly discriminate against whites. Joe rips the mask off: this is straight-up hatred for the nation that gave them the platform to hate it.Then the hypocrisy explodes. MSNBC's Joy Reid claims “whites can't invent anything” — while sitting in air-conditioning, using a phone, speaking English, and promoting her show on devices powered by white ingenuity. Patrick lists the receipts: Gutenberg's printing press, Edison's light bulb, Bell's telephone, the Wright brothers' airplane, Fleming's penicillin, Ford's assembly line, and more — inventions that built the modern world she mocks. Meanwhile, an entire generation of 18-30 white males is being deliberately softened: endless gaming, weed, porn, no families, no drive. Schools fuel it with “day of silence” rituals, transgender propaganda, non-binary teacher intros, and politicians like Texas Dem James Talarico claiming cops in schools create “violence.” It's not random; it's the engineered collapse of the very men who built this country.This division is the Marxist playbook in action. Democrat Sen. Ed Markey preaches “immigrants have a right to dignity,” while illegal immigration costs U.S. taxpayers $150.7 billion net every year money that could house the homeless, treat addiction, fix schools, or improve roads for actual Americans. Yet refugees? Nearly 100% from South Africa's white farmers facing genocide and land seizures. Republicans get painted as heartless for wanting legal process, while the system rigs everything against citizens. Joe brings the red pills, exposes the two realities we're forced to live in, and shows why both sides' gridlock serves the same agenda. This isn't entertainment — it's your weekly reminder that the fight is real. Unplug from the lies, stand for truth, and remember: failure is not an option.

The committee chaired by James Comer was presented as a serious effort to expose the truth behind the Epstein scandal, but in practice it operated more like a containment mechanism than a genuine investigation. Instead of aggressively pursuing the deeper financial, institutional, and international networks surrounding Jeffrey Epstein, the committee stayed confined to surface-level material that had already been widely reported. Its pacing was slow to the point of being strategic, releasing limited information in controlled bursts that drained public momentum rather than building pressure. Key lines of inquiry were avoided altogether, particularly those that could implicate powerful institutions or expand the scope beyond a manageable narrative. This was not oversight in any meaningful sense—it was narrative management disguised as accountability, designed to give the illusion of action while ensuring nothing truly destabilizing came to light.The shift from promises of “full transparency” to a quiet push toward “moving on” was not accidental—it was enabled by the committee's own conduct. By dragging out the process, narrowing its focus, and controlling what was released, Comer and his colleagues created the conditions for public fatigue, making it easier to justify closing the book before the real questions were answered. The fact that a discharge petition was required to force additional material into the open exposes just how resistant the committee was to genuine transparency. Without that external pressure, the public likely would have been left with a sanitized, incomplete version of events presented as the final word. Far from uncovering the truth, Comer's committee functioned as a gatekeeper, protecting the boundaries of the narrative and ensuring the most consequential aspects of the Epstein network remained out of reach.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.com

My guest today is Alan Waxman, co-founder and CEO of Sixth Street, a $130B global investment firm. Private credit is one of the most discussed topics in markets right now, and there is a lot to make sense of. The current discourse is almost entirely focused on symptoms. Alan Waxman has spent the time diagnosing the root cause. Alan thinks about the financial system the way a historian would, studying the incentives, guardrails, and market structure that determine how things play out. In this conversation, he traces the evolution of American finance from the 1929 crash through Glass-Steagall, the GFC, and Basel III to explain how we arrived at what he calls the factory model, the industrialization of liability-gathering and asset deployment that he believes is the root cause of everything happening in private markets today. This is my second conversation with Alan, our first one is one of my favorites from last year.  For the full show notes, transcript, and links to mentioned content, check out the episode page ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠here⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠.  ----- This episode is brought to you by⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠Ramp⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠.

Bob Moriarty argues that the U.S. and Israel are facing a historic geopolitical decline. Moriarty claims that recent undisclosed military losses and a failing debt-based economic system are shifting global power toward resource-rich Eastern nations like Iran and China. He suggests that current Middle Eastern tensions are being used as a diversion from domestic scandals and strategic blunders, leading to potential regime changes and social collapse. The discussion highlights a transition away from the petrodollar, predicting that physical assets like gold and silver will become essential as Western empires fragment. Ultimately, Bob portrays the current era as a critical tipping point marked by leadership failures and the rise of new global powers.

Professor Jiang lays out the best and worst case scenarios in the escalating U.S.-Iran conflict, from a diplomatic breakthrough to a devastating regional war. He explains the potential impact on the Middle East, global energy markets, and why the petrodollar system remains central to America's economic power.

Something has shifted dramatically in the last few years. The institutions and information structures we were trained to trust have failed in ways that are now difficult to ignore, producing a kind of generalized mistrust that makes it hard to think, hard to act, and hard to know what a good life even looks like anymore. In this episode, Kelly sits down with philosopher and author James Madden to examine what it means to navigate belief and meaning when the ground beneath shared reality has already given way. Jim is the author of Unidentified Flying Hyper-Object: UFOs, Philosophy, and the End of the World and Thinking About Thinking: Mind and Meaning in the Era of Techno-Nihilism, the cohost of The Great Dangerous Books Podcast, and a longtime thinking partner whose refusal to offer easy answers has made him a favorite among listeners of Kelly's previous work. They talk about the complacent indifference that has settled over people in the wake of seemingly endless waves of institutional scandal and revelation. They talk about conspiracy thinking as a cognitive response to the collapse of trusted authority—and why the fact that some conspiracies turn out to be real makes the situation harder to navigate, not easier. They talk about why generalized epistemic mistrust is such an effective mechanism for preventing meaningful action. And they talk about what it means to keep trying to live well when you can no longer trust the information you would need to do it. Topics explored: epistemological collapse | conspiracy thinking as cognitive response | institutional trust failure | the "big other" | generalized skepticism as paralysis | information warfare | the psychology of indifference | epistemic mistrust and political action | radical self-reliance | faith and probability | living well under uncertainty | Žižek | Lacan | Plato's Republic Inquiry with Kelly Chase is brought to you by SpectreVision Radio.Produced in partnership with Voltage.fm.  Referenced In This Episode Unidentified Flying Hyperobject: UFOs, Philosophy, and the End of the World, James Madden Thinking about Thinking: Mind and Meaning in the Era of Techno-Nihilism, James Madden Republic, Plato The Agnostic Inquirer: Revelation from a Philosophical Standpoint, Sandra Menssen & Thomas D.
