Podcasts about Communist China

Larry O'Connor shares a deeply personal experience that left him feeling overwhelmed and emotional - the baptism of his first grandchild. As he reflects on this moment, he wonders if it's a sign of the grandparent effect, where the responsibilities and stress of parenting are replaced by a sense of nostalgia and appreciation for the next generation. But it's not just about grandparenthood - this episode also delves into the world of politics, with a focus on the upcoming California gubernatorial election and the importance of election integrity. Larry discusses the recent state visit between President Trump and Chinese President Xi Jinping, and what it might mean for the future of US-China relations. He also talks to Stephen Mosher, author of "The Devil in Communist China," about the symbolism behind the eagle statue given to Xi Jinping during the visit. Meanwhile, in California, the Republican nominee for governor, Steve Hilton, is making waves with his campaign promises to cut taxes and reduce regulations. But will it be enough to turn the tide in a state that's been dominated by Democrats for years? The episode also touches on the importance of investigative journalism, with a spotlight on Nick Shirley, a 24-year-old YouTube journalist who's been exposing the truth behind fraudulent government programs. But despite his bravery, Nick has had to take extra security measures to protect himself from violent attacks. And in a special segment, Larry shares his own experience as a grandfather, reflecting on the emotions and responsibilities that come with this new role.Become a Townhall VIP member with promo code "LARRY": https://townhall.com/subscribeSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

China expert and author Steve Mosher (The Devil and Communist China) joins Brian Kilmeade to break down President Trump's high-stakes meeting with Chinese President Xi Jinping. Mosher reveals why Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent slashed China's trade extension to just two months, how Chinese EV "rolling data centers" pose a severe national security threat, and Beijing's secret role in backing Iran and Houthi rebels in the Middle East.

In this episode of Verdict with Ted Cruz, Senator Ted Cruz and Ben Ferguson examine President Trump’s meeting with Xi Jinping, the strategic competition between the United States and China, the race for AI supremacy, China’s role in supporting Iran, and efforts to secure the release of dissidents and prisoners held by authoritarian regimes. They also discuss recent political controversies involving progressive activists and Democratic candidates, along with a closely watched Senate race in Texas. President Trump’s high-profile meeting and state dinner with Chinese President Xi Jinping put the U.S.-China rivalry at the center of the global conversation. With leading American CEOs in attendance and artificial intelligence emerging as a defining strategic battleground, the discussion focused on far more than diplomacy. The stakes include economic leadership, technological dominance, supply chain security, and the future values that shape AI around the world. At the same time, concerns over China’s relationship with Iran, the status of political dissidents, and ongoing geopolitical competition added another layer of urgency to the talks. Senator Ted Cruz argues that the challenge posed by China is the most significant long-term geopolitical issue facing the United States and discusses why he believes American leadership is critical in the decades ahead. Topics Covered: President Trump’s meeting and state dinner with Xi Jinping The U.S.-China competition over artificial intelligence and technology China’s economic, military, and geopolitical ambitions China’s support for Iran and the impact of Iranian oil exports The cases of Jimmy Lai and other political dissidents imprisoned by authoritarian governments Political debates surrounding Hasan Piker, Abdul El-Sayed, and Texas Senate candidate James Talarico Please Hit Subscribe to this podcast Right Now.

On Wednesday's Mark Levin Show, Communist China is the United States' primary enemy. Xi Jinping is a mass murderer who seeks to defeat America economically, geographically, and militarily. China has attacked U.S. computer systems, stolen technology, interfered in American affairs, supported violent unrest, provided intelligence to Iran that was used in attacks resulting in American deaths, and is rapidly expanding its military to intimidate the United States.  Turning to Iran, early military action against the regime was highly effective but efforts were weakened by pauses for negotiations. Both communism and Islamism are long-term ideological threats that cannot be contained through agreements alone. They're playing the long game, waiting for Trump to leave office and Democrats to come in, and our children will be left holding the bag. Meanwhile, the eldest son of Israeli Ambassador to the United States Yechiel Leiter, was killed in Gaza early on in the war. Now his other son is on life support after suffering severe brain damage in a vehicle attack. Israeli families are deeply affected by the ongoing violence. Later, this is a tough election cycle, and it always was going to be a tough election cycle. Rather than starting post-election doomer finger-pointing and positioning oneself as if a sage when seeing the obvious, 6-weeks before the actual election, how about we put our minds, and resources, and efforts toward fighting as hard as we can given all that is at stake.  You can be concerned and say-so but stop dispiriting voters before they vote. You could be creating a self-fulfilling outcome. Shove the predictions. Let's get going! Afterward, the claim that the First Amendment guarantees White House press access has some serious hurdles. Who qualifies for credentials, who decides, and by what standard? With countless new media outlets, granting access to some while denying others is hard to justify, yet granting access to all is impossible. Any judge who equates access with press freedom will have to explain where those lines are drawn and why they make sense. Finally, Rep Randy Fine calls in and condemns the Iranian president's UN speech as cocky and unacceptable, arguing the United States should not host terrorists. Fine called the claim that every Hamas fighter killed in Gaza was a civilian disgusting, said the UN embraces such rhetoric, and opposed U.S. tax dollars funding the body; he would rather it meet in Geneva and leave American soil.

On Wednesday's Mark Levin Show, the central AI debate is between freedom and government, and between knowledge and idiocy. These politicians, bureaucrats, and regulators think they know more than inventors, creators, and innovators, and are trying to make people fearful of technological advancement. We need to remember the politicians who oppose this progress; they're populists, nationalists, Marxists, and socialists who seek greater control while presenting their actions as protecting "the people." Government control of AI would be a power grab and would benefit Democrat political interests and favored groups, while also helping Communist China. Government and politicians need to keep their hands off and allow advancement to move forward. Also, Arkansas Senate candidate Hallie Shoffner says she would trade five Americans for one ‘undocumented immigrant.' Hardworking Americans pay taxes and contribute significantly to the country. Schaffner is ineffective and out of touch. Meanwhile, Texas Senate candidate James Talarico's pastor says that Talarico will return to his previous radical views after being elected. He is changing his message solely to gain political power. Later, gas prices are high but voters should not be discouraged from supporting Republicans in the midterm election. Electing Democrats by staying home on Election day will not lower gas prices. Democrats support policies that would raise costs, increase taxes, expand government power, and advance a radical agenda. Republican victories are necessary to maintain control of the House and Senate and prevent investigations, impeachments, and Democratic control of government. Low voter turnout could lead to the destruction of the economy and our republic. Afterward, Deuteronomy was the most widely read and cited book during the Revolutionary period, appearing more frequently in speeches, writings, and official documents than any other source. Figures such as Madison, Washington, Adams, and Jefferson repeatedly referenced the Hebrew Bible, not to promote Judaism, but because they saw parallels between ancient events and their own circumstances. Ideas from the Hebrew Bible helped shape arguments about natural law, natural rights, and the Creator, while also overlapping with Enlightenment thought, particularly that of John Locke, although Deuteronomy was cited even more frequently. Finally, Ben Shapiro calls in to discuss Daily Wire's new film - Run Hide Fight: Infidels. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices

In this special broadcast, Brian partners with Michael Woolworth of Bible League International for the ministry's annual fall fundraising drive, aiming to provide 2,000 Bibles to believers around the world who lack Scripture in their own language. Michael shares powerful stories from across the globe: a former radical Muslim in Albania whose conversion sparked 500 others to faith; new believers in Malawi's overcrowded Zaleka refugee camp; underground house churches surviving persecution in Communist China; a rickshaw driver in India secretly evangelizing despite anti-conversion laws; and a genocide survivor in Rwanda who found the grace to forgive after receiving her first Bible, sparking a third of her village to faith. Michael explains that a $5 gift provides one Bible, doubled through a matching campaign, and each Bible is estimated to reach a dozen people, inviting listeners to support the effort by phone or online.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

In this episode of the 47 Morning Update w Ben Ferguson, Ben argues that America is already engaged in an AI Cold War with Communist China and warns that slowing AI development could hand a strategic advantage to Beijing. He examines recent concerns over efforts to restrict or delay AI infrastructure projects and explains why those decisions could have far-reaching consequences for economic growth, national security, technological innovation, and global influence. Ferguson also discusses reports from OpenAI and X regarding alleged China-linked influence operations aimed at shaping public opinion around American AI infrastructure. According to the reports, foreign actors allegedly used AI-generated content and coordinated online activity to amplify concerns about data centers, energy usage, and electricity costs. While acknowledging that communities have legitimate questions about energy demand, infrastructure investment, and transparency, he argues that foreign interference in those conversations should raise serious concerns. The episode also explores the economic ripple effects of AI policy debates, including market reactions across semiconductor, technology, energy, and infrastructure sectors. Ferguson makes the case that AI leadership requires far more than advanced software, calling for expanded investment in semiconductors, power generation, transmission systems, skilled labor, and domestic manufacturing capacity. Artificial intelligence has become the defining technological competition of the 21st century, and the battle is no longer theoretical. As the United States and China race for dominance in AI, the debate is increasingly shifting from software to the infrastructure that powers it: microchips, data centers, electricity, and computing power. Topics Covered: The growing AI competition between the United States and China Why data centers, microchips, and electricity are central to AI leadership Alleged China-linked influence campaigns targeting AI infrastructure debates Market reactions across semiconductor and AI-related industries The connection between energy production and AI development National security implications of winning or losing the AI race Please Hit Subscribe to this podcast Right Now.

Decades of hard experience with arms control are instructive in  assessing the prospects for proposals to have the United States and Communist China create bilateral mechanisms for managing risks arising from pell-mell and fraught advances in artificial intelligence.  It's seductive to believe that such arrangements are desirable since totalitarian regimes should have a shared interest in averting dangerous miscalculations or unchecked threatening developments.  In practice, however, what consistently happened was when such regimes entered into accords limiting military capabilities, they cheated on their obligations, benefited from our unilaterally conforming to ours and exploited opportunities thus afforded to collect intelligence against us.  Legitimate concerns about the rise of U.S.-generated “FrankenAI” argue for restraint on our part. But the only hope for actually mitigating the threat posed by China's headlong pursuit of perilous artificial intelligence is the end of the Chinese Communist Party.  This is Frank Gaffney.

Imagine being 13 years old and told by a court that you cannot go to church, you cannot associate with your Christian friends, you cannot celebrate Christmas or Easter, and you cannot even read the Bible! If you think this is about Communist China today or perhaps even North Korea, think again. Join Jim Schneider and Mat Staver as they examine the details concerning a case (Bickford v. Bradeen) related to a girl named Ava in the state of Maine. Ava loves going to church. She misses her friends. She wants to worship with her mother. She wants to hear the Word of God, but the Supreme Judicial Court in Maine has told her NO. Commenting on this case Mat said, "In my 39 years of practicing law, I have never seen anything like this case." As a result, he will be taking this case to the United States Supreme Court.
 Other legal issues were discussed and listeners brought their thoughts to the discussion as well. More Information: LC.org

In this Conflicted Conversation, journalist Chris Horton talks about his new book Ghost Nation: The Story of Taiwan and Its Struggle for Survival. Chris explains: Why China wants Taiwan and why the island is vital to control of the western Pacific. Taiwan's strategic position in the First Island Chain between China, Japan and the Philippines. How a Chinese invasion, blockade or maritime quarantine of Taiwan could unfold. Why a war over Taiwan could devastate global trade and the world economy. What Taiwan's fall would mean for US power, Japan and the Philippines. Why Taiwan is an independent democracy but still officially called the Republic of China. Who the Taiwanese are: Indigenous peoples, Hoklo, Hakka and post-1949 mainlanders. How martial law, dictatorship and democratisation created modern Taiwanese identity. Why the Kuomintang, once Communist China's enemy, is now Taiwan's most Beijing-friendly major party. Whether Taiwan could eventually choose closer integration with China through democracy rather than war.

This week on the podcast, I brought on my favorite guest of all time: my mom. I wanted to sit down with her and dig into some of the wildest stories from my childhood, the ones I've never really told on this show before, starting with the night a demon-possessed teenager showed up at our home group and my parents accidentally launched a deliverance ministry that would define our family for years. My mom walks me through it in her own words, along with the story of Tracy Evans, a missionary who survived being shot at, shipwrecked, and hunted in the Philippines, and who later brought a young woman, the spiritual daughter of Anton LaVey, to live in our house.From there we get into some of the most intense moments of my upbringing: a manifestation that turned violent and sent my mom running for her life, my sister Jamie's terrifying medical crisis when she started having seizures as a kid, and the time my two older sisters, ages 12 and 14, were sent to smuggle Bibles into Communist China, one of them getting interrogated for hours and the other getting separated from her group in the middle of the night. My mom also opens up about the hardest financial season of their lives, losing their business, owing 1.8 million dollars, and watching God provide through a string of miracles that included a banker forgiving their debt in tears.We close the conversation talking about her Parkinson's diagnosis seven years ago and how she refused to let it define her, choosing instead to go elk hunting at 500 yards, harvest a black bear with a crossbow, and keep showing up for life instead of shrinking back. This episode is really a tribute to her, to her faith, her grit, and the way she and my dad lived out the gospel in real, messy, unglamorous ways long before it was something either of them had figured out.

Mitch McConnell's disturbing “frozen” Senate video is going viral—but what happened afterward? In Skiba News Nation Episode 166, we investigate the footage, the handlers standing nearby, his absence from public view, and the health-collapse, body-double and clone theories spreading online. Then we dig into the Epstein files: millions of documents released, thousands of pages withheld or redacted, hidden names and continuing questions about why additional people have not been prosecuted.

In this episode, guest host Dean Karayanis fills in on The Derek Hunter Podcast to tackle pressing national and international headlines, focusing on economic policy, foreign relations, and domestic political discourse. U.S.-Canada Trade Relations: Dean examines the media coverage of President Trump's tariffs, arguing that critics ignore long-standing Canadian trade protectionism in sectors like dairy and lumber. He critiques Canadian political figures, including Mark Carney and Justin Trudeau, for pursuing economic ties with Communist China despite human rights concerns while opposing U.S. policies. Geopolitics & Defense Spending: The discussion highlights foreign policy realities, noting that international maritime security and North American defense are heavily subsidized by U.S. taxpayers, while NATO allies often fail to meet agreed-upon defense spending targets. Border Policy & Immigration Realities: Dean compares strict border and third-country asylum enforcement in Canada and Mexico with U.S. border security debates, challenging narrative double standards surrounding immigration, as Tom Homan proclaims himself an equal-opportunity deporter who has sent aliens home to 180 countries. Domestic News & Political Rhetoric: The episode covers political rhetoric surrounding corporate workplace incidents, media framing of counter-terrorism efforts by law enforcement, and the importance of grounding political arguments in historical context and verifiable facts.

The "rape of Nanking," the Japanese military slaughter of 300,000 Chinese civilians, is supposed to be one of the worst atrocities of the twentieth century. The Allied established Tokyo Tribunal found 100,000 dead and the Nanking tribunal, three times as many. However, a University of Nanking study by Dr. Lewis Smythe, who was in the city when the Japanese took control, found that even with underestimations the number of dead was about 31,000 people. Many of them were also armed and died from direct combat with the Japanese. The number of dead in the city itself was only a few thousands and the entire surrounding countryside had to be included to get even above 10,000 dead.  Yet today the Chinese government has made it illegal to question this and other historical narratives; they also demand perpetual apologies from the Japanese despite their more recent murder of upwards of 60 million of their own people from starvation and mass murder quotas. The 2011 JAPAN-CHINA JOINT HISTORY RESEARCH REPORT also agreed that the Imperial military was given strict orders to not behave in the ways accused. Even if some did, and thousands were murdered, the numbers are nowhere even close to triple digits. This is important for historical purposes, but also because Nanking remains a major geopolitical issue between Japan, China and even Taiwan. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=i-7-VFiuyd0https://www.mofa.go.jp/mofaj/files/100512970.pdf?utm_source=chatgpt.comhttps://en.wikisource.org/wiki/War_Damage_in_the_Nanking_area_Dec._1937_to_Mar._1938https://news.web.nhk/newsweb/na/na-k10015198361000*The is the FREE archive, which includes advertisements.

In part two of our deep dive into China (and part four of our socialist organization series), we break down how Mao attempted to dialectically sublate a national front and a united front. We explore the structural inclusion of the "patriotic national bourgeoisie" into the block of four classes (symbolized by the stars on the Chinese flag) and contrast it with classical Soviet developmental theory and orthodox Marxism.We also dive into:- The historical debate between Chen Duxiu, Li Dazhao, Lenin, and Trotsky.- Why modern "Hoxhaists" and Left Communists consider New Democracy to be revisionist.- The evolution of class structures under Deng Xiaoping and Jiang Zemin's "Three Represents" doctrine (allowing billionaires into the Party).- The reality of modern China's development: Is it a transitioning socialist project, or an hyper-competent form of state capitalism and developmental liberalism?Don't forget to like, subscribe, and hit the notification bell for Episode 5, where we pivot to National Frontism and National Bolshevism.Journal ArticlesDirlik, A.

While official Washington is understandably preoccupied with the war with Iran, a tectonic shift has just occurred in the region that threatens to overshadow that conflict's ongoing challenges and knock-on effects.  For many years, we have been encouraged to believe that three sharia-supremacist nations – Turkey, Pakistan and Saudi Arabia – are reliable U.S. allies. Indeed, the Trump administration has counted on them to negotiate on our behalf with the Iranians.  The announcement that those three nations have just established a mutual defense accord is ominous. It means that Saudi Arabia is now joining the Turks and Pakistanis in aligning with the Red-Green axis forged by Communist China and the Muslim Brotherhood.  Reports that Egypt may soon join them signals our enemies are filling a perceived vacuum of power in the Mideast, increasingly threatening Western civilization at a particularly bad time.  This is Frank Gaffney.

On Thursday's Mark Levin Show, claims from some on the fringes of the conservative movement—that younger people today face uniquely hard times due to student debt, homeownership barriers, and inflation driven by the war with Iran—are inaccurate and sound like leftist or socialist talking points. There have been far greater hardships faced by prior generations: the Great Depression's 25% unemployment, widespread business failures, and near-economic collapse, followed by World War II's draft of 16 million Americans with over 600,000 casualties under brutal conditions. Young people today simply do not have it as hard as those of 50–80 years ago - they ​simply ​don't. Later, Hasan Piker represents a spreading poison that threatens the country unless named, confronted, and defeated. Democrats must abandon the reflexive party, party, party loyalty rooted in family tradition or anti-Republican sentiment; continuing to vote Democrat today means supporting and empowering those taking over the party, which ultimately destroys themselves. Independent thinking is essential. Meanwhile, it is astonishing how long birthright citizenship has continued, with the United States handing out citizenship like lollipops, producing figures such as Piker. Enemy governments like Communist China promote thousands of such births so the children can return as citizens able to work in sensitive technology, military, government, and Pentagon positions without detectable background issues, a practice that must end even as the president tries to stop it without Supreme Court help and the administration must do far more to halt the influx of Islamists, imams, and so-called scholars from countries that cannot be properly vetted.  Also, Iran continues a campaign of brutal hangings of protesters arrested during the January uprising in order to crush any future resistance. The only way to end this is from within by arming the Iranian people. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices

There's currently much hand-wringing that our arsenal of precision and long-range weapons has been depleted to the point where we may be unable to continue combat operations against Iran, let alone deter – and, if necessary, win – a war with Communist China. Understandably, the Pentagon is reluctant to provide sensitive information on the topic. But leaks and congressional testimony suggest there's truth to the speculation.  If so, it's the predictable result of “strategic arson” perpetrated by Chinese dictator Xi Jinping. His Russian and Iranian allies' attacks on Ukraine and Israel, respectively, came after consultations in Beijing. And they have diverted our policy-makers, consumed our warriors' energies and materiel and overwhelmed inadequate military production lines.  The Trump administration and Congress are scrambling to expand our defense industrial base. The question is: Will China's next arson in “World War Xi” wait until we do so?   This is Frank Gaffney. 

This week on the Mark Levin Show, modern Western societies, enlightened and democratic, are experiencing "soft negative power." Gradually, our democratic institutions are being subverted by infiltration of unelected institutions like bureaucracies, independent agencies, and the judiciary. Soft negative power leads to authoritarian democracy. One branch of government absorbs and overtakes the others. Legislatures pass tyrannical laws. Soft negative power is so effective that one of the worst tyrannies of all -- Marxism -- is now deeply ingrained in the Western psyche. If you take money from one successful person and give it to five others who haven't earned it, who do you think those five people will vote for? This is why America is a republic, not a democracy. This is why the Founding Fathers put in safeguards such as a Senate, Electoral College and a Supreme Court - things Democratic Socialists despise. Sen. Lindsey Graham would have been amused yet pleased by the packed tributes from those who once labeled him a warmonger. He was a peace monger who stood firmly with America's allies. He knew Israel, Ukraine, and Taiwan are forces for good against Iran, Russia, and Communist China. Graham was straightforward, his word was his bond. You may not have agreed with everything he said, but he was a man of principle. He will be missed. Later, the Iranian regime needs to be eliminated. The Iranian people want liberation and are being slaughtered for speaking out - the focus should be arming them, rooting out the IRGC, and applying aggressive military leadership rather than endless bombing or infrastructure destruction alone. Meanwhile, Zelensky and the Ukrainians are winning the war against Putin and Russia. Spain has seen a massive influx of over 80,000 illegal immigrants from Morocco and Northern Africa, with humanity as far as the eye can see breaking into the country while its socialist, radical leftist, anti-American and anti-Israel president does nothing. This mirrors the rapid destruction possible in a single government cycle, as occurred under Biden in America. Communists in the Democrat Party, Democratic Socialists of America and their allies oppose immigration enforcement and attack ICE precisely because they seek such open-border circumstances as a regular occurrence to replace the current citizenry with people from the Third World. This is revolution by immigration that will destroy the country; there is no discussion of assimilation or the true purpose of immigration. Learn more about your ad choices.

Peace Through Strength, America's Navy with LCDR Steve Rogers USN (Ret) – Consider the growing number of global hot spots—from the Middle East and Europe to Cuba—where the U.S. Navy must maintain a visible presence and send adversaries a clear warning: do not cross a line that would require a forceful naval response. And we must not forget Communist China...

So-called “frontier” artificial intelligence is going rogue. Think of it as FrankenAI.  Anthropic and OpenAI have both reported in recent days that their AI agents have autonomously attacked other organizations, apparently without authorization from humans or prior notice.  The trouble is this is assuredly but a small foretaste of what is being unleashed.  Leaders in the industry like Elon Musk have been warning for some time that the pell-mell pursuit of ever more powerful AI technology risks creating instruments for the destruction of civilization.  The notion that we must do so lest we “lose the race” with Communist China, sets up a no-win nightmare: Either we create doomsday AI or they do, with the help of American big tech.  We better hit “pause” on both our own headlong rush to create FrankenAI and stop enabling the CCP's.   This is Frank Gaffney.

On Tuesday's Mark Levin Show,  Sen Lindsey Graham would have been amused yet pleased by the packed tributes from those who once labeled him a warmonger. He was a peace monger who stood firmly with America's allies. He knew Israel, Ukraine, and Taiwan are forces for good against Iran, Russia, and Communist China. Graham was straightforward, his word was his bond. You may not have agreed with everything he said, but he was a man of principle. He will be missed. Later, the Iranian regime needs to be eliminated. The Iranian people want liberation and are being slaughtered for speaking out - the focus should be arming them, rooting out the IRGC, and applying aggressive military leadership rather than endless bombing or infrastructure destruction alone. Meanwhile, Zelensky and the Ukrainians are winning the war against Putin and Russia. The administration and public opinion are turning in favor of Ukraine because the Ukrainians are demonstrating that they will not be defeated and Russia's casualties are truly horrendous, threatening Putin's hold on power. The Ukrainians are attacking Russia's oil infrastructure to great effect. And it is making a huge difference in the trajectory of the war there. The U.S. appears to be avoiding Iran's oil infrastructure.  We need to rethink this if we seek an actual victory. We are not going to achieve an actual victory at the negotiation table, certainly not a lasting victory. Finally, Alan Dershowitz calls and breaks down Zohran Mamdani's pied-à-terre tax. Mamdani's practice of compiling and releasing lists of second-home owners is typical socialist behavior. Mamdani is a vicious, bigoted antisemite whose insistence that every other country may be a Muslim state while denying Israel's right to exist. The Democratic party is the most dangerous in modern American history and Mamdani the most dangerous mayor. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices

Is a new global government for artificial intelligence already taking shape? On today's episode of The Sentinel Report, Alex Newman exposes the launch of the new World AI Cooperation Organization—an international body created by 29 governments, including Communist China and Russia, to coordinate global AI governance. What does this mean for freedom, privacy, national sovereignty, and the future of humanity? Then, Secretary of State Marco Rubio reveals decades of Cuban communist infiltration and subversion inside the United States, shedding new light on how Havana helped fuel radical anti-American movements on U.S. soil. We'll also examine President Trump's latest legal victory protecting America's national parks from ideological activism—and what it signals in the broader battle over America's culture and institutions. Today's guests: Iesha Schreiner, TPUSA Rise leader and author of One Nation Under God: 250th Anniversary Devotional, discusses restoring biblical values, constitutional principles, and patriotism in the next generation while reaching communities long dominated by the Left.

Christians in much of the world today face pressures. Few, however, face anything as intense as those Christians who lived under the first few decades of authoritarian rule in either the Soviet Union or Communist China. At least not yet.While freedom and opportunity still remains, Christians today would be wise to consider the experiences of Christians under the Soviets and Chinese Communists. Though both situations shared many similarities, they developed in starkly different manners. Why did they differ so much? What lessons can we glean and apply in our own situations? And what cautionary flags can we recognize and avoid?On this encore episode of the Christian Emergency Podcast, Andy examines a helpful case study of the Christian experience under the Soviets and Chinese. This comparison, produced originally by Nik Ripken in his book The Insanity of Obedience, provides many helpful insights for Christians today.If you find this material helpful, please share it with your friends and leave us a five-star rating wherever you listen to your podcasts.

On Friday's Mark Levin Show, President Trump has repeatedly and clearly condemned Tucker Carlson and for good reason. Carlson has viciously and personally attacked the President, not just disagreed with him here and there. Strange that some close to the President remain close to Carlson, even defend Carlson, given Carlson's relentless personal smears of POTUS. Also, the term “globalist” is oddly misused by those who routinely cut business deals with foreigners yet label others as globalists. Additionally, “establishment” is another term. Such words are being used intentionally and perversely to confound and confuse, but we remain neither. Later, no, we don't need more centralized government.  It's already overwhelmed by hundreds of billions in fraud documented by the GAO and by Musk and DOGE. Instead of endless experiments reinventing the wheel, the focus should simply be ensuring a safe, prosperous, and free society; Americans are not liberals on the dole and do not need government treating them as dependents - Florida serves as the prime example. Any Republican embracing quasi-socialist or centralizing agendas may win a primary but will not win the presidency. Afterward, thanks to communist China, Russia, Qatar, Turkey, Iran, and Hamas much of America's youth is against Israel—an unprecedented level of hatred toward Jews achieved through American podcasters, hosts, social media, and the internet. Israel's small population and limited resources could never win a PR war against the vast funding and influence of these foreign powers. Meanwhile, a poll claims Americans are growing weary of capitalism and losing faith in it. Majority of Americans don't want socialism. The problem is the to demographic changes—new arrivals who do not understand capitalism or the Constitution and simply expect benefits—as well as a broader culture that teaches people not to fend for themselves or pursue individual success but to demand big-government programs and something for nothing.  Finally, Gianno Caldwell calls to discuss the community March Against Violence in Chicago on June 25th.  Four years after his teenage brother Christian was shot and killed in Chicago, Caldwell is marching for justice rather than simply mourning. This is a national stand for victims and accountability through the Caldwell Foundation for Public Safety he founded in his brother's memory. Learn more about your ad choices.

As Iran's regime rejects negotiations and continues threatening Israel, American forces, and international shipping, Senator Tom Cotton argues that the United States must finish its operational campaign, dismantle Tehran's remaining missile and drone capabilities, and maintain the blockade depriving the regime of vital terror funding. Cotton, who chairs the Senate Intelligence Committee, also warns that Communist China is pursuing the largest peacetime military buildup in history, rapidly expanding its nuclear arsenal, and seeking to replace the United States as the world's dominant superpower. He explains why America must reduce its dangerous dependence on China for medicines, medical devices, and other critical supplies. From Iran and China to socialism gaining ground inside the United States, Senator Cotton delivers a clear warning: America must remain strong, confident, and resolute—or risk inviting a direct challenge from its enemies. The threats are gathering. This is no time for weakness. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

We always hear about "capital" in this country, but that means more than just the money floating around in our economy. Our thoughtful host, Mike Slater, explains what he means in an iconic monologue to start today's podcast! Following that opener, Slater gabs with Breitbart News's Tech Editor, Colin Madine, about the latest artificial intelligence updates and how they're tied to Communist China! These are things that every American should know about because they're as serious as can be! MAGA! Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

In this broadcast segment, co-hosts Tara and Lee discuss the shifting political landscape in South Carolina following the death of Senator Lindsey Graham. They analyze Donald Trump's recent endorsements and internal polling metrics, noting weakness in the traditional establishment "machine" as candidates like Ralph Norman lead over endorsed contenders. The discussion broadens into national security and political ideology, with the hosts arguing that socialist movements within the Democratic Party—backed by financial networks linked to Communist China—pose a significant threat to American democratic institutions and election integrity. The segment concludes with a brief mention of recent entertainment headlines, highlighting the strong box office performance of The Odyssey.

On Friday's Mark Levin Show, should our Constitution be gutted? DSA's Gustavo Gordillo says yes. He says the Senate is undemocratic and should be reformed or eliminated. The problem? Small states have an equal say in the Senate. The genius of the Founding Fathers was that in at least one house of a bicameral Congress, small states wouldn't be swallowed up by large states. Gustavo wants to replace this genius system with a European-style socialist parliament. He also wants to put the working class over billionaires. Isn't it funny you never hear Socialists like Gustavo talk about liberty? Marxist "working class versus billionaire class" rhetoric promotes group-based oppression narratives over freedom, individual rights, and the Declaration of Independence. These people seek to destroy the country, its way of life, political and governing systems, founding principles, and economic system—the greatest on Earth—built through countless legal, military, and political battles. Due to generosity and stupidity, including open borders and ceding colleges and universities to enemy-promoted teachings, an enemy within now acts through culture and has largely conquered the Democrat Party piece by piece. Those who love the country and want to preserve its lifestyle for children and grandchildren must wake up, listen, and pass the message on, because if more of them vote, they win. Later, China has constructed a full-scale, three-dimensional replica of a US Navy Arleigh Burke-class guided missile destroyer in the Taklamakan Desert as a weapons testing facility to target real warships. They're not fooling around, this is serious. Afterward, it's problematic that the media dismissed President Trump's election security speech and his findings on Communist China's interference in the 2020 election. There are foreign and domestic forces seeking to destroy America, including a weak ruling class, rogue judges, and too many university faculty who indoctrinate students against America's core principles. Finally, Rep Jim Jordan calls in and explains that Special Counsel Jack Smith misled Congress by testifying that his team did not obtain the contents of communications between Trump administration officials and members of Congress. Evidence shows the National Archives, under the Biden administration, turned over unfiltered text message contents to Smith's team raising separation of powers and Speech or Debate Clause violations. Jordan also addresses the President's speech highlighting Communist China's election interference, confirming his staff is investigating documents on the matter. Learn more about your ad choices.

On Thursday's Mark Levin Show, the 2028 Republican presidential primary must be competitive and vibrant, with no coronations. The Republican Party needs to be rooted in the principles of Jefferson, Washington, Madison, Reagan, Buckley, Goldwater, and Milton Friedman's free markets—not Democrat-lite nationalism or populism that dismisses history—and we should demand articulate candidates who boldly contrast conservative beliefs with the left. No, we don't want a bold government, which is what the socialists and Marxists desire. We want an effective limited government confined to its constitutional powers, a bold private sector, and individual sovereignty. Also, Sen John Fetterman expressed his long-term concern as a Democrat that his party might back away and turn its back on Israel, declaring that if it ever officially becomes the anti-Israel party, he would leave because it represents moral clarity for him. Young Democrats in Pennsylvania largely do not like Fetterman, though blue-collar Democrats—including cops, firefighters, and miners—do support him in a state with the highest percentage of union households in the country. Fetterman sounds more conservative on Israel than some of the Woke Reich neo-fascists. Later, President Trump is set to reveal in his presidential address bombshell evidence that China interfered in the 2020 election to help Joe Biden win, including hacking into state voter registration databases and stealing information on tens of thousands of voters to manufacture mail-in ballots, based on declassified FBI, CIA, and ODNI documents. The speech will also highlight over 100,000 non-citizens, including illegal immigrants, on voter rolls nationwide. Democrat states refuse to clean their voter rolls of dead people, duplicates, and unvetted individuals in violation of federal law because they want to enable corruption and fraud. Afterward, the left and the media carry water for or enemies like Communist China by hindering U.S. progress in this critical AI race. AI development is essential for surpassing human knowledge generation in military, medical, and other fields, and halting it would let China and Russia dominate; data centers must be prioritized nationally and supported by innovations like miniature nuclear plants, despite leftist opposition akin to past fearmongering against fracking. Finally, there is no evidence of an Israeli influence campaign. The Israeli Foreign Ministry pushed back against a defamatory Time magazine article, clarifying that all activities are transparent, lawful under U.S. law, and involve no interference in U.S. policy; they lawfully contracted a digital agency to combat hatred against Jews and strengthen the U.S.-Israel alliance. JD Vance and Joe Rogan must apologize for smearing Israel. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices
