Tucker Carlson has quickly emerged at the forefront of major conservative events this fall, especially as he steps in to replace Charlie Kirk for the upcoming Turning Point USA tour stop at Indiana University scheduled for October 21 at 6:30 p.m. This shift follows the shocking assassination of Kirk, which made national headlines and prompted Erika Kirk, Charlie's widow, to take over the organization as CEO and continue his campus tour legacy. With Carlson now joining the tour alongside figures like Megyn Kelly and Glenn Beck, his influence as a public speaker remains robust and highly visible.On the media front, Carlson continues to grow his post-Fox News enterprises. According to The Wall Street Journal, he and Neil Patel are actively raising significant capital—reportedly seeking hundreds of millions—to launch a new media company with a primary focus on subscription-based longer-form videos distributed via Twitter, now called X. This effort builds on the momentum of his show "Tucker on X," which has achieved substantial viewership. Episodes such as his interview with Andrew Tate have stirred continued debate, showing Carlson's willingness to engage with controversial guests and topics.His latest professional developments include launching "The Tucker Carlson Show" podcast in May, which quickly surged in popularity and ranked as the top political podcast on Spotify by July. Yet, his approach continues to attract intense scrutiny. For example, Carlson's September interview with Darryl Cooper, whose commentary included Holocaust denial and revisionist views, prompted swift backlash. White House officials and all Democratic Jewish members of Congress publicly condemned Carlson for providing a platform to such rhetoric, with Republican figures joining to denounce the segment and its historical distortions. These controversies underscore a persistent debate over Carlson's influence on political discourse, media standards, and misinformation—issues amplified by his choices of guests and topics.On the legal front, no major new lawsuits or settlements have surfaced tied to Carlson in recent days, though discussion persists about the professional ramifications of his Fox News departure, earlier legal entanglements, and responses from networks and advertisers. Meanwhile, public speculation remains about his income and net worth. Reliable estimates place his wealth between $30 and $50 million, a figure bolstered by old family money and media success but marked by increasing uncertainty since he left Fox News—the lack of transparency in his new media earnings continues to fuel rumors and debate.Interactions with other public figures have been highly significant. Carlson is set to appear with prominent conservative speakers, and his recent interviews have drawn commentary from figures like Elon Musk and White House spokespersons. His media ventures and public statements carry outsized weight in right-wing political circles and beyond, making him a lightning rod for both supporters and critics.Thank you for listening to the Tucker Carlson News Tracker podcast.

Tucker Carlson has taken on a highly visible role in the aftermath of the recent assassination of Turning Point USA founder Charlie Kirk. On September 21, Carlson delivered a widely discussed eulogy at Kirk's memorial service at State Farm Stadium in Glendale, Arizona, an event attended by thousands including national political figures like President Donald Trump, Vice President J.D. Vance, and Donald Trump Jr. During his remarks, Carlson reflected on Kirk's legacy, warning against those who seek to silence dissenting voices and emphasizing Kirk's commitment to moral courage, introspection, and faith as guiding principles for America's future.In response to the tragedy, Turning Point USA announced that its ongoing “American Comeback Tour” will continue in Kirk's honor, and Carlson has been confirmed as the replacement keynote speaker for the planned October 21 event at Indiana University in Bloomington. The appearance is being touted as a significant moment for campus free speech, a subject that's drawn renewed attention in light of Kirk's killing. Local TPUSA organizers have called Carlson's upcoming appearance a “major event” for the university community, highlighting the debate over free expression in higher education.Carlson's media ventures remain the subject of ongoing discussion, with reports from outlets like Celebrity Net Worth and MSN estimating his current net worth at up to $50 million, further fueling debates about his broader influence in conservative media and politics. Since his exit from Fox News, Carlson has continued to expand his online media footprint, including successfully raising funding for digital projects such as his media company, which according to Fortune recently raised $15 million in seed capital.In the days following Kirk's assassination, public conversation has focused on Carlson's role within the conservative movement, his rhetorical style, and the increasing politicization of campus and media environments. While supporters praise his willingness to address contentious issues and support for conservative student activism, critics have renewed debates about the impact of his commentary on public discourse and polarization. There have been notable interactions with other public figures, particularly through shared appearances at memorial and activist events, further cementing Carlson's role as a prominent voice in the current conservative landscape.At this time, there are no widely reported legal challenges or new professional controversies directly involving Carlson himself. However, his ongoing commentary and involvement in politically charged events continue to spark vigorous public discussion about the responsibilities of media figures, the boundaries of free speech, and the role of partisan activism in shaping public debate.Thanks for listening to the Tucker Carlson News Tracker podcast.

Tucker Carlson has remained in the headlines over the past week, appearing on The Charlie Kirk Show on September 19 to reflect on the late Charlie Kirk's faith and influence on cultural and political activism. Carlson took on a guest hosting role during the episode, sharing personal stories, discussing resilience after controversy, and emphasizing the recent surge in citizen engagement ahead of the coming election. His comments highlighted not only his personal bond with Kirk but also touched on the broader political climate, referencing the pain of media smears and the transformative impact of public pressure on news personalities.Carlson's own media ventures are moving forward. Following the successful launch of his independent online outlet after leaving Fox News, there have been new developments involving his business partnerships. Red Seat Ventures, the Fox-backed digital company that helps independent creators like Carlson, continues to expand its influence in the podcast and YouTube creator space, aiming to find new voices that could shape the future of conservative commentary. This investment has strengthened Carlson's platform and provided more resources for his ongoing projects, as reported by Variety and Deadline.Carlson is also being discussed as an influential figure in right-wing media and politics, with ongoing debates about his role as an independent power broker outside the constraints of cable news. His influence remains a point of contention in conversations about the future of conservative media, amplified by the growth of his alternative channels and his ability to attract large audiences even after his departure from mainstream TV. Notably, figures like historian Heather Cox Richardson have mentioned that Carlson would likely be a target in any future attempts by political opponents to counter conservative media influence, further underscoring his status as a lightning rod for debate.Following the recent controversy over comments made by Jimmy Kimmel regarding Charlie Kirk, Carlson's sphere has also intersected with broader media industry reactions. The backlash led to ABC suspending Kimmel's show and political actors weighing in on the boundaries of acceptable commentary, with some conservative voices closely aligned with Carlson celebrating the move as an overdue reckoning for mainstream media.No new legal disputes or investigations involving Carlson have surfaced in the past several days, and his media focus has been on remembrance, commentary, and strengthening his independent presence rather than engaging in litigation or regulation battles.Listeners are encouraged to stay tuned for further developments as Carlson continues to help shape debates on media, culture, and politics.

In this explosive episode, we dive into the rising tide of political violence, media bias, and government corruption threatening our nation. From viral social media posts glorifying attacks on conservative figures like Charlie Kirk to the shocking hypocrisy in how “hate speech” is defined, we unpack the dangers facing Americans who dare to speak freely. We examine real-world consequences, including corporate censorship and societal backlash, and ask the hard questions: who decides what speech is acceptable, and how far will the left go in criminalizing dissent? Our special guest, Dr. Kandiss Taylor, candidate for Georgia's 1st Congressional District, brings her unique perspective as a 22-year educator, counselor, and administrator. Known for her bold campaign slogan, “Jesus, Guns, & Babies,” Dr. Taylor shares her vision for restoring accountability in public office, protecting families, and reforming education and mental health policy. Together, we explore how faith, family, and freedom intersect with public service, and what it takes to stand firm against the rising tide of ideological extremism and government overreach. We're also covering the response of Conservative Media to Charlie's assassination. Milo Yiannopoulos, the provocative British commentator and bestselling author, as he returns to challenge mainstream narratives and defend free speech. From his fearless critiques of political correctness on college campuses to his unflinching takes on media hypocrisy. Ben Shapiro and Megyn Kelly rise to the challenge. This episode is a must-listen for anyone committed to protecting liberty, exposing corruption, and standing up for truth in a polarized world.

Alan unpacks this narrative, spotlighting the Left's refusal to condemn violence from their ranks. Plus, Kash Patel stands firm on Capitol Hill, addressing critical issues with unwavering resolve, and a segment on royal customs offers a cultural lens on tradition.

Tucker Carlson has been active in the news, making headlines for his bold commentary and involvement in a high-profile fundraiser. In a recent video message, Carlson did not hold back, criticizing what he calls the unchecked power of elite interests and government bureaucracy in America. He warned that multiculturalism, in his view, is a dangerous social experiment that threatens societal cohesion, and insisted that democracy is being undermined by forces beyond the control of ordinary citizens. His message—delivered without apology—emphasized that America is at risk unless these issues are addressed, stirring significant conversation across political circles.In other major news, Carlson and Neil Patel announced the creation of a fundraiser to support the family of Charlie Kirk, the political activist who was assassinated while speaking at Utah Valley University. Carlson and Patel personally seeded the fundraiser with $1 million from ALP Pouch, Tucker's nicotine product brand, and promoted the campaign widely on social media. While many praised this effort as a show of solidarity, others criticized Carlson for linking the fundraiser to his nicotine brand, calling it inappropriate or opportunistic. Amidst this, the FBI is continuing its investigation into Kirk's murder, circulating images of a person of interest and offering a $100,000 reward for information leading to an arrest.Carlson also appeared in a widely discussed interview with Sam Altman, CEO of OpenAI. In a challenging exchange, Carlson pressed Altman about the suspicious death of former OpenAI researcher Suchir Balaji, questioning the official ruling of suicide and highlighting details from Balaji's family that suggest foul play. The interview sparked debate among tech insiders and the broader public on transparency and accountability in powerful technology companies, further amplifying Carlson's reputation as a hard-hitting interviewer unafraid to question authority.On the professional front, Carlson's media ventures continue to attract attention. His nicotine pouch company, ALP, was in the spotlight because of the Kirk fundraiser. Meanwhile, the Tucker Carlson Network remains active, with new shows and digital content continuing to draw significant viewership and spark debate on media influence and political partisanship. Industry watchers are also monitoring Carlson's role in shaping the direction of alternative media, especially as Fox News undergoes yet another revamp of its weekend programming and continues to adapt to his absence in the prime-time lineup.Discussions about Carlson's influence—both positive and controversial—continue. His recent statements and actions have been met with mixed reactions from the public, media colleagues, and political figures. Some see him as a whistleblower calling attention to uncomfortable truths; others argue his comments stoke division and alarmism. Carlson's interactions with other high-profile personalities, such as Sam Altman and Neil Patel, reinforce his position as a major force in conservative media and political commentary.Thanks for listening to the Tucker Carlson News Tracker podcast.

Tucker Carlson has dominated headlines over the past few days with multiple high-profile moves and provocative statements. Most recently, Carlson and Senator Ted Cruz engaged in a heated public exchange over whether the United States should support Israel in potential military strikes against Iran. Their clash, widely covered by CBS News, has highlighted growing disagreements within pro-Trump conservative circles about the future of American foreign policy, especially in the volatile Middle East.Carlson continues to generate attention with his Tucker Carlson Network, now bolstered by significant investment from the pro-Trump venture fund 1789 Capital. According to reporting from Fortune and Bilyonaryo, these funds have helped solidify the network as one of the central new-media outlets promoting conservative and pro-Trump content, aiming to redirect mainstream conversation and provide an alternative to conventional cable news. Carlson and his business partner have also been using the platform to launch new shows and paid content, which Carlson claims gives subscribers direct access to his “personal inbox” as part of building his own independent media ecosystem.In terms of his latest public appearances, Carlson has drawn global focus for his exclusive interviews with influential world leaders—including Vladimir Putin and the Prime Minister of Qatar. His interview with Putin triggered international debate after the Russian president used the opportunity to suggest renewed negotiations for the release of Wall Street Journal reporter Evan Gershkovich, who remains detained in Russia. The Qatari interview, meanwhile, featured the Prime Minister defending Qatar's role in Mideast ceasefire talks and pushing back against claims the country supports terrorism, effectively using Carlson's show as a platform to shape global narratives.Carlson has also just released a controversial five-part documentary series on the September 11 attacks. In the series, he directly challenges the official 9/11 commission narrative, describing it as a political cover-up designed to benefit neoconservative interests in the Bush administration. The series has already sparked outrage among critics who cite Carlson's own previous denunciations of 9/11 conspiracy theories. This shift has been widely discussed online, with social media users and commentators scrutinizing the documentary's assertions, particularly its suggestions of foreign government involvement and accusations of a broad cover-up. Video clips of the show have gone viral, further fueling debates about the boundaries between free inquiry, sensationalism, and disinformation in modern media.Outside of media content, Carlson has been in the public eye for philanthropic efforts following the assassination of conservative activist Charlie Kirk. Working with Neil Patel, Carlson announced a $1 million fundraiser—partly funded by his nicotine brand ALP—to support Kirk's widow and two children. The move received an outpouring of support but also criticism, as some detractors accused Carlson of self-promotion by associating his product with the tragedy.These developments come amid ongoing debate about Carlson's influence on the American right and his efforts to shape a parallel conservative economy. With 1789 Capital and other new funding streams, Carlson is increasingly seen not just as a commentator but as a power player building long-term infrastructure for pro-Trump and anti-establishment media. At the same time, he remains a lightning rod for criticism from established media and some fellow conservatives, especially as he pushes the boundaries on controversial topics and takes on former allies.Thanks for listening to the Tucker Carlson News Tracker podcast.

Enough is enough. There ARE real victims and ten of them are traveling to Washington, DC this morning to speak at a press conference at 10:30 am ET. They want to remind the nation that their pain and suffering was NOT a hoax, regardless of what Donald Trump and the Republican leadership are saying. It is estimated that 100 additional survivors will be in attendance. Today we will feature an exclusive interview with Congressman Tom Massie on his decision to go it alone in leadership AGAIN, this time on behalf of the Epstein survivors. His mission is to pass a law, compelling the full release of the Epstein Files and he believes he can do it. For those who scoff at the pursuit of justice, I would remind them that regardless of the outcome it is STILL noble and good to stand up for the truth. Those who do might “lose” in some ways but they will be rewarded with a peace of mind that the corrupt and sinister will NEVER have. Everyone knows that the Epstein scandal is not a Democrat hoax and it’s time to hold Trump, Republicans and Conservative Media accountable for the promises of transparency & justice they have made over the years on behalf of the countless victims. Tom Massie is once again one of the only men standing up and today he is not pulling any punches.

I go through numerous cases on immigration, social issues, and tariffs to show how the courts are mowing down every last accomplishment. On the economy, not only do Republicans not have a plan, Trump continues to say prices are down. I explain how Republicans will get slaughtered in the midterms if they continue to gaslight on the economy.

In this episode of Uncommon Sense with Ginny Robinson, we discuss the uncomfortable truths the mainstream won't touch. Why has President Trump failed to release the Epstein list, and what does that mean for accountability for the Deep State? How will mass immigration and the flood of H-1B visas reshape America's workforce, wages, and even our culture? And what about the wild rumors circulating online that President Trump has died?

Tucker Carlson continues to maintain a prominent role in the conservative media landscape, with recent developments reflecting both new directions in his business activities and his ongoing influence in political discourse. The most significant news is his growing connection with 1789 Capital, a venture capital firm that describes itself as anti-ESG and dedicated to backing conservative and “anti-woke” initiatives. According to Le Monde and updated information from the 1789 Capital website, the firm has recently reiterated its support for Carlson's media company, Last Country Inc., which now runs the website for the Tucker Carlson Network. This network remains a focal point for some of the parallel conservative economy efforts backed by several influential investors, including Rebekah Mercer and, as announced just after the 2024 election, Donald Trump Jr., who joined 1789 Capital as a partner. The fund, which already manages roughly $150 million, has signaled its intention to continue supporting Carlson's and other similar ventures as part of their push to reshape conservative media and technology platforms.In terms of media appearances and statements, Carlson has remained active via his network, releasing new interviews and commentary that continue to draw significant attention and response from supporters and critics alike. While specifics on his most recent public remarks are not available at the time of recording, his programming frequently trends across social media and draws engagement from a mix of high-profile political allies and adversaries. He has also remained a prominent topic across Fox News and rival networks, where his commentary and media projects are frequently referenced in broader debates about journalism, misinformation, and political polarization.There have been no major legal developments directly involving Carlson in the past few days, and coverage of his business continues to focus more on the strategic and financial implications of his alignment with investors aiming to build a so-called parallel economy. This alliance has sparked considerable discussion about the influence of alternative conservative media and the increasing push within right-leaning circles to create media infrastructure as a counterbalance to established outlets.Reactions to Carlson's commentary—and by extension, his broader influence—remain sharply divided. Critics on the left and some on the right argue that his platform amplifies divisive rhetoric and questionable information, while his allies praise his willingness to confront major media narratives and offer a platform to perspectives they claim are marginalized elsewhere. Prominent figures in politics and media continue to engage with Carlson's work, sometimes appearing on his program or referencing his influence when addressing broader debates about free speech, censorship, and the purpose of journalism in today's polarized environment.As for the larger implications, Carlson's ongoing projects and his partnership with financially robust backers highlight how he continues to impact the shape of conservative media and its intersection with politics and business. His interactions with figures like Donald Trump Jr. and alignment with venture funds such as 1789 Capital underscore his shift from traditional cable news to a broader, cross-platform media and activism strategy. The debates surrounding his influence, the reach of his new ventures, and their potential to reshape media norms remain highly active both within and outside conservative circles.Thank you for tuning in to the Tucker Carlson News Tracker podcast.

Tucker Carlson has made headlines this week after escalating a major feud with President Donald Trump, as reported by AOL, following Carlson's sharp criticism of Trump's recent support for Israeli military actions in Iran. In his latest newsletter, Carlson accused Trump of being “complicit” in the deadly strikes, arguing that years of arming Israel placed the former president at the center of those events. Trump quickly fired back to reporters, dismissing Carlson's influence and saying, “no one is paying attention to the former Fox News host or his concerns about Israel's military action in Iran.” Trump challenged Carlson to get his own television network if he wants to be heard by a wider audience.Carlson's newsletters and social media channels continue to drive conversation on the American right, especially on foreign policy, where he positions himself in direct opposition to the neoconservative establishment. Responsible Statecraft highlights how Carlson has openly feuded with conservative commentator Mark Levin over Iran, accusing Levin of trying to push the U.S. into another Middle East conflict. Carlson's opposition to foreign military interventions has become a defining feature of his messaging, and his posts about Levin's lobbying against Iran have reached millions online, underscoring his continued ability to shape debate in Republican and populist circles.In terms of his current ventures, The Rebooting reports that Carlson has leaned fully into alternative media, bypassing institutional news outlets to build a parallel media infrastructure online. He's been using his highly followed platforms to promote not only his political commentary but also a lineup of sponsor-driven content, ranging from tobacco alternatives to prepper kits and various direct-to-consumer products, reflecting a business model increasingly common among right-leaning independent media figures. Carlson is also known for both interviewing and being interviewed by influencers from across the political spectrum, further cementing his role as a central figure in the new populist information landscape.Reactions to Carlson remain polarized. Supporters praise his anti-establishment stances and willingness to challenge Republican orthodoxy, while critics, including traditional conservatives and Trump loyalists, view his attacks on neoconservatives and on Trump's foreign policy as divisive. The ongoing public debate between Carlson, Trump, and right-wing figures like Mark Levin illustrates how deep the internal divisions have become within conservative media and politics.No significant legal actions or new professional troubles involving Carlson have surfaced in the past few days. However, the broader implications of his feud with Trump and his increasing isolation from both the mainstream right and his former Fox News colleagues suggest that Carlson's influence—while substantial in certain online communities—may be growing more niche, even as it remains fiery and impactful.Thanks for listening to the Tucker Carlson News Tracker podcast.

Tucker Carlson has remained a central figure in political media discussions with several notable developments over the past few days. The biggest story in the media landscape affecting Carlson is Fox Corporation's strategic push into digital streaming and podcasting. Fox has acquired Red Seat Ventures, a company that manages media content for high-profile independent personalities including Tucker Carlson, Megyn Kelly, and Bill O'Reilly. Red Seat Ventures will now operate under Tubi, Fox's ad-supported streaming division, which signals an intention to heavily bolster both Fox's free streaming and its audio and video podcast slate. The move increases the visibility and reach of Carlson's content, putting him alongside other major figures in the Fox media constellation, and could eventually bring more of his programming to Fox's streaming audience.Additionally, Fox debuted details for its new streaming service, Fox One, which becomes available August 21. The service offers live access to Fox News, Fox Business, Fox Sports, and other key channels for $19.99 per month, specifically targeting viewers who have cut the cable cord. While Fox One itself will not produce original content specifically for the platform at launch, subscribers will have the option to bundle Fox One with Fox Nation, further increasing access to opinion, news, and documentary content associated with Fox personalities, including archival and perhaps some future Carlson material. Fox leaders emphasized that Fox One is intended to reach digital-first audiences, potentially expanding the influence of personalities like Carlson within a streaming-first market.Carlson's own brand is also drawing renewed debate due to his public alignment with Project 2025, a comprehensive conservative policy blueprint designed to reshape the federal government should Republicans win the presidency. Reactions to his association with Project 2025 have varied sharply: some credit him with giving the agenda a populist boost, while critics charge that his support represents a further blurring of lines between media and policy advocacy. Political media forums and social channels continue to host heated exchanges on his influence, with supporters calling him a necessary counterweight to mainstream networks, and detractors warning of growing polarization.In terms of legal or professional developments, there have been no reports in the last few days of direct litigation or professional sanctions involving Carlson. However, media analysts are closely watching how Red Seat Ventures' acquisition reshapes the business around media personalities branching out from traditional cable formats. The move is seen as part of a broader industry realignment that could offer more independence and leverage to major figures like Carlson, especially as big media firms compete for prominent conservative voices in an evolving digital landscape.Carlson himself has not been reported making any major new public statements or high-profile interviews in the last few days. His recent content continues to circulate widely online, with his segments on domestic policy, the election cycle, and cultural issues discussed and critiqued by both allies and opponents. No significant new confrontations or interactions with other media figures have come to light lately, but his affiliation with media innovation and digital expansion ensures he remains in the spotlight. Observers note that Carlson's trajectory—now increasingly rooted in online and streaming platforms—reflects the shifting power dynamics in American news and commentary, with the potential to further amplify his already outsized impact on political discourse.Thanks for listening to the Tucker Carlson News Tracker podcast.

When you ask ChatGPT or Gemini a question about politics, whose opinions are you really hearing?In this episode, we dive into a provocative new study from political scientist Justin Grimmer and his colleagues, which finds that nearly every major large language model—from ChatGPT to Grok—is perceived by Americans as having a left-leaning bias. But why is that? Is it the training data? The guardrails? The Silicon Valley engineers? Or something deeper about the culture of the internet itself?The hosts grapple with everything from “Mecha Hitler” incidents on Grok to the way terms like “unhoused” sneak into AI-generated text—and what that might mean for students, voters, and future regulation. Should the government step in to ensure “political neutrality”? Will AI reshape how people learn about history or policy? Or are we just projecting our own echo chambers onto machines?
Today is the day Tina Peters' attorneys, including Peter Ticktin, will argue their habeas corpus petition. Let us pray that her attorneys have the strength to defend their arguments against attacks and that the judge rules fairly. Later, Ron MacLachlan, founder of the pro-police rally in Colorado, joins the show to discuss how his pro-police rally was hijacked, leading to him being assaulted and others being attacked. Next, Donald Trump just dropped some bombshells; more specifically, he openly proclaimed that Obama and others are guilty of treason and will be dealt with accordingly. All this and more on today's Untamed!
Tucker Carlson has made headlines this week following a public dispute with Donald Trump regarding allegations of an apology over Carlson's criticism of Trump's handling of Israel's military actions against Iran. Trump claimed that Carlson called to apologize for labeling him “complicit” in a recent newsletter, but in a new interview with the German newspaper Bild, Carlson flatly denied any such phone call ever occurred. He stated, “Okay… no,” and further clarified he didn't believe anything he said to Trump warranted an apology, while also noting he's generally quick to apologize when he feels it's due. Despite the disagreement, Carlson said he still supports Trump politically and would be happy to apologize if he thought it was merited.In the same wide-ranging Bild interview, Carlson sparked controversy by praising Vladimir Putin's leadership, stating that Putin has done “a great job for Russia,” while sharply criticizing Germany's recent political and economic direction. He argued that Germany's current struggles are domestic in origin and not the result of the Ukraine war or Russian actions. These comments have generated significant reaction and debate internationally, particularly among European commentators and political leaders sensitive to Western alignment on Russia.On the business front, there are no recent announcements of major new projects, but Carlson continues to run the Tucker Carlson Network, his digital media platform launched late last year after parting ways with Fox News. The platform has hosted a steady stream of interviews and commentary, often focusing on provocative or contrarian takes that keep him squarely in the public eye. Carlson's network has leaned into the creator-driven media landscape, as industry analysis by WPP Media suggests platforms led by creators like Carlson are rapidly gaining in ad revenue, sometimes outpacing traditional media outlets.Carlson's influence continues to spark a wide spectrum of responses. Within conservative media, he remains a significant, if sometimes polarizing, voice. For instance, his ongoing scrutiny of U.S. foreign policy, aggressive posture toward establishment politics, and willingness to amplify controversial viewpoints have drawn both devoted support and critical pushback, particularly regarding his comments on Russia and the state of U.S.-European relations. Mainstream and liberal commentators frequently highlight Carlson's reporting as an example of the rising tide of populist, nationalist rhetoric reshaping public discourse.In terms of interactions with other public figures, his exchange with Donald Trump has underscored both Carlson's relevance and the at-times complicated relationship between prominent conservative personalities and political leaders. The back and forth not only grabbed headlines in U.S. politics but was dissected widely in international press. Carlson has not shied away from directly challenging or critiquing leaders on his platform, a dynamic that continues to shape debates over the nature of conservative media influence ahead of the 2026 U.S. midterms.No significant legal actions involving Carlson have been reported in the past several days, nor have there been any confirmed professional disputes apart from the Trump disagreement and ongoing media scrutiny. His most recent activities have centered on high-profile interviews and commentary, consistently making him a focus of news coverage and political debate.Thanks for listening to the Tucker Carlson News Tracker podcast.

Tucker Carlson's recent activities have kept him firmly in the media spotlight, sparking debates and drawing strong reactions from political figures, the press, and the public. Over the July Fourth holiday, Carlson announced that he had conducted a rare, exclusive interview with Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian. This interview triggered immediate controversy; Texas Congressman Dan Crenshaw, Senator Ted Cruz, and radio host Mark Levin were among those who sharply criticized Carlson for engaging directly with the leader of a government they characterize as hostile to the United States. In response, Carlson released a video defending his decision, explaining that his aim was to offer direct journalism and candidly engage with world leaders—an approach he compared to past journalistic interviews with controversial global figures.Carlson continues to amplify his profile with the growing success of the Tucker Carlson Network. He recently completed the buyout of his initial investors to assume full ownership, a move promoted as empowering greater editorial independence and creative control. Reports from Spreaker indicate this strategy is part of Carlson's broader ambition to reinvent right-leaning media outside the constraints of cable television, with the network adopting a subscriber-based business model and eschewing traditional advertisers. High-profile interviews remain central to his programming, with recent guests including Robert F. Kennedy Jr., Tulsi Gabbard, and Russell Brand. These conversations frequently explore shifting political dynamics, especially the evolving relationships within and between America's major parties.Live engagements remain a significant part of Carlson's media strategy. His “Tucker Carlson Live Tour” is underway, featuring events in major cities and frequent appearances with controversial public figures such as Russell Brand. These gatherings are marketed as both opportunities for Carlson's audience to engage directly and as platforms for unfiltered commentary on current events.On the political front, Carlson has attracted attention for his ongoing coverage and apparent support for the “Project 2025” conservative policy blueprint, though industry analysts have observed that he does not always name the initiative outright. Outlets like the Brookings Institution have analyzed Project 2025's ambitions and its polarizing influence on U.S. political debate, while Carlson's alignment with such plans has intensified scrutiny over his role in shaping the direction of conservative politics.Recent content and interviews from Carlson have often become lightning rods for criticism. In a recent podcast, he ignited controversy by discussing the potential role of Israeli intelligence in the Jeffrey Epstein case—a claim that quickly reverberated across both traditional and social media and prompted heated reactions regarding the responsibilities and choices of influential media personalities.Carlson's business and media influence also continues to grow. Alongside partner Neil Patel, he is reportedly seeking investment for a new venture designed to blend free short-form content with paid, in-depth programming—a move that could further expand his already substantial digital reach. Reports indicate the Tucker Carlson Network is now profitable, fueled by direct subscriptions and loyal audiences on platforms like X, formerly known as Twitter, where his videos consistently draw among the largest political audiences online.Carlson remains highly active as a speaker at high-profile conservative conferences, most recently appearing at Turning Point USA's 2025 Student Action Summit. His questions and remarks at these events are frequently reported as both challenging and combative, sparking spirited responses from guests and furthering Carlson's reputation as an unpredictable and provocative figure within the movement. At a recent event, for example, Carlson grilled Republican Senator Ted Cruz on Iran policy, with their back-and-forth widely shared on social media.Carlson's influence continues to be a subject of debate in media circles, with some describing him as a political shapeshifter, speculating about his long-term ambitions—including (though not confirmed) rumors about a potential run for public office. His new business ventures, reportedly attracting investment from figures aligned with Rebekah Mercer, underscore his drive to remain a central force in conservative media as he carves out an independent, self-directed path.Thank you for listening to the Tucker Carlson news tracker podcast.

Tucker Carlson continues to be highly visible and active across conservative political and media circles. Just this weekend, Carlson was a featured speaker at Turning Point USA's 2025 Student Action Summit in Tampa, Florida, sharing the stage with other prominent conservative figures including Donald Trump Jr. and Laura Ingraham. The event, drawing thousands of young conservatives, put Carlson in front of a live audience as he addressed themes related to youth activism, economic opportunity, and the evolving state of the Republican Party. His appearance was widely discussed across social media and conservative news outlets.On the business front, Carlson has assumed full ownership of the Tucker Carlson Network, having bought out his previous investors. He explained that this move was made to ensure complete editorial independence. The network has already reached profitability, relying on a subscriber model and host-read promotions, with no outside advertisers. His main show continues to air on both his website and on X, formerly known as Twitter, where he consistently garners large audiences and remains one of the most-watched political commentators. Carlson, along with longtime collaborator Neil Patel, is reportedly raising investment for a new media venture that aims to build on this momentum, planning a company that blends free short-form content with paid, longer-form programming. Discussions are underway to expand across multiple platforms, indicating a continued push to monetize and amplify Carlson's substantial digital following.Carlson's recent broadcast content has generated considerable controversy. In a new podcast episode, he challenged the role of Israeli intelligence in the Jeffrey Epstein case, suggesting Epstein operated as a foreign agent tasked with blackmailing U.S. officials. This claim has reverberated through both traditional and social media, drawing sharp criticism from various quarters and further fueling debates around Carlson's influence, editorial choices, and responsibility as a media figure.Another flashpoint has been Carlson's recent interviews with controversial world leaders. His much-publicized sit-down with the Iranian president sparked discussions about media ethics, with other commentators, including those on the PBD Podcast, questioning Carlson's approach to sensitive statements like “Death to America” and the line between providing a platform and amplifying hostile rhetoric. His earlier interview with Vladimir Putin similarly drew global attention, reinforcing his ability to set the agenda for political discourse but also inviting criticism for the perceived normalization of authoritarian viewpoints.On the legal and professional front, Carlson remains engaged in ongoing disputes with Fox News. The standoff centers on the terms of his departure and allegations of contract breaches on both sides, including claims of fraud and the unauthorized disclosure of private communications. Fox News has denied these accusations, and negotiations continue, especially with the expiration of his contract approaching in early 2025. These legal battles remain a backdrop to all of Carlson's public activity, adding intrigue and uncertainty to his next moves.Carlson's alignment with Project 2025, a sweeping conservative policy blueprint, has become another focal point in recent days. Analysts at the Brookings Institution and elsewhere have highlighted the controversial aspects of Project 2025, such as its recommendations on government structure and civil liberties, with Carlson's vocal support sparking renewed debates about his role in shaping the direction of right-wing politics heading into the next election cycle.Interactions with other high-profile personalities have also kept Carlson in the news. His appearances alongside Donald Trump Jr., Megyn Kelly, and Charlie Kirk at recent events underscore his continuing relevance and centrality to conservative media. Meanwhile, his statements and interviews remain a flashpoint for both supporters and detractors, generating significant discussion about his ongoing impact on political discourse, activism, and the future of American media.Thank you for listening to the Tucker Carlson news tracker podcast.

Tucker Carlson has been particularly active and visible across several media platforms in recent days, reinforcing his status as one of the most influential and polarizing voices in conservative media. Most recently, Carlson conducted a high-profile interview with Iran's President Masoud Pezeshkian, in which Pezeshkian claimed that Israel had tried to assassinate him and discussed Iran's stance on nuclear negotiations with the United States. The interview generated substantial international attention, not only for Pezeshkian's contentious remarks but also for Carlson's continued reach as an independent media figure. This appearance underscores Carlson's willingness to engage directly with controversial world leaders and fuel debate on U.S. foreign policy.Carlson's media ventures continue to expand rapidly. He has now assumed full ownership of the Tucker Carlson Network after buying out his previous investors, a move widely reported by outlets like Axios and Barrett Media. Carlson explained that sole ownership was necessary to maintain complete editorial independence, and the network has quickly reached profitability, bolstered by a subscriber-based model and the absence of outside advertisers, with select host-read promotional spots still included in his content. His primary show, The Tucker Carlson Show, is featured on his personal website tuckercarlson.com as well as on X, formerly known as Twitter, where his high-viewership video segments continue to rank among the most-watched in political media.In addition to the existing network, Carlson and longtime collaborator Neil Patel are reportedly raising significant investment for a new media company that would leverage X as its foundation. According to The Wall Street Journal, this project aims to blend free short-form videos with longer, subscription-based episodes, and discussions to integrate these products across dedicated apps and additional web platforms are underway. This approach is designed to further capitalize on his digital audience, which has grown substantially since his exit from Fox News.Carlson's latest episodes continue to feature controversial and high-profile guests, such as his recent conversation with Robert F. Kennedy Jr., now a cabinet secretary, discussing issues from autism to the Kennedy files. These editorial decisions reinforce his strategy of engaging with figures outside the traditional mainstream, courting both criticism and loyal audiences.A notable development in the broader media landscape has been Carlson's escalating feud with fellow conservative commentator Mark Levin over U.S. policy toward Iran. According to Responsible Statecraft, Carlson criticized Levin for advocating military action and accused him of lobbying for war at the White House. Levin, in turn, responded with accusations of anti-Semitism directed at Trump's envoy Steve Witkoff, prompting Carlson to highlight what he described as the outmoded hawkishness of establishment conservative media. Carlson's post about Levin's position garnered millions of views on social media, illustrating his ongoing dominance and ability to ignite intra-conservative debate.Legal and professional challenges remain a part of Carlson's ongoing story. Negotiations between his legal team and Fox News continue over the terms of his contract and alleged breaches, including accusations that Fox deceived Carlson and disclosed private communications. Fox News has denied these claims, and the impasse has kept the dispute in the public eye, even as Carlson thrives outside the network.Carlson's influence remains a subject of frequent discussion and analysis, with his commentary on issues like immigration, race, and America's foreign wars sparking reactions from both supporters and critics. His recent interactions with public figures—ranging from Donald Trump to controversial global leaders—further cement his place at the center of media and political debate.Thank you for listening to the Tucker Carlson news tracker podcast.

Today we're diving deep into the bowels of THE DAILY WIRE'S film imprint with help from writer and conservative media expert Sami Gold. Our subjects are one “documentary” and one “comedy” that truly test the title of our podcast: 2022's WHAT IS A WOMAN?, a piece of transphobic propaganda hosted by conservative anti-personality Matt Walsh, and 2023's LADY BALLERS, an anti-woke sports comedy that somehow hates women even more than trans people.Unwatchables is hosted by Marc Dottavio and Seth Troyer, produced by Tony Scarpitti, featuring artwork by Micah Kraus.You can support us on Patreon at patreon.com/unwatchables to get access to exclusive bonus content and weigh in on what we watch next.Find us online at www.unwatchablespod.com or shoot us an email at unwatchablespodcast@gmail.com.

In today's episode, we examine the intensifying public rift between Elon Musk and Donald Trump. The catalyst? Trump's recently proposed “Big Beautiful Bill” which notably removes federal subsidies that have historically benefited Musk's ventures. Elon has not remained silent, and tensions escalated further when he retaliated by implying that Trump is listed among Jeffrey Epstein's known associates, suggesting this as the reason the full client list remains sealed.Major accusation.Is this an authentic ideological clash, or a calculated distraction? What are the political implications, and who truly benefits from this spectacle? Let's dissect the rhetoric, analyze the deeper motives, and apply biblical clarity in the midst of all of the chaos.—https://www.thebrandsunday.com/products/the-bible-study-physical?srsltid=AfmBOopJ1q_VkwFOO-Q2RCLoc1uzsHwAP4yh-_ZFG-r8_S9idICTj6nR
The Big Beautiful Bill looked like it was gliding along. Sure, there were hiccups — Rand Paul grumbled about the debt ceiling, some MAGA accounts didn't fully endorse it — but even then, it felt like controlled turbulence. Paul was performing his role as the token dissenter, the libertarian who always squawks about spending but eventually votes yes with a few tweaks. And he was already telegraphing his price: drop the debt ceiling hike and he's in. Meanwhile, the House side wasn't exactly throwing punches. Everyone was eyeing the Senate. If anything, it seemed like things were lining up for a classic late-June deal — messy but inevitable.Punchbowl's Jake Sherman, who's as wired in as it gets, detailed the emerging gap between the House and Senate versions of the bill. The Senate Finance Committee wants permanent tax breaks that sunset in the House version. They're also pushing to modify or eliminate key Trump-era items — like the no-tax-on-overtime policy and new savings accounts for kids. There's still no consensus on SALT either. Senate Republicans want to water down the $40,000 deduction cap that Trump himself agreed to. That would make some moderate House Republicans happy, but it could risk blowing up the agreement altogether. This is the stuff that actually matters — the policy guts that will be run past the parliamentarian and hashed out in closed-door meetings. But then, out of nowhere… Elon.Politics Politics Politics is a reader-supported publication. To receive new posts and support my work, consider becoming a free or paid subscriber.MAGA Has a Specific TypeTwo days ago, Elon Musk posted that the big beautiful bill was a “disgusting abomination.” Then he followed it up by retweeting Rand Paul with the words “KILL the BILLL.” That's not a passing criticism. That's scorched-earth stuff. And when it comes from a guy like Elon — who has positioned himself as a billionaire warrior for the MAGA cause — it's a challenge. So I did what I always do. I doomscrolled. Not for fun, but for you. To see who flinches. And here's what I found: almost nobody followed his lead.Charlie Kirk, who had been fairly quiet on the bill, suddenly dropped a thread outlining “50 wins” from it — MAGA-branded talking points that sounded like they came from Speaker Johnson's office. He didn't mention Elon. He didn't need to. The timing was the tell. He was staking a claim: this bill is ours. It's Trump's. And we're backing it. Then came Catturd. If you don't know about @Catturd2, well, that's why you listen to this show. The dude's a Twitter account run by a Florida musician, but in the MAGA ecosystem, his voice carries weight. When he turns, people follow. And he wasn't with Elon either.Mike Cernovich — someone who's ridden hard for Elon, slammed his enemies, carried water for his beefs — also pivoted. He made it clear that Trump's agenda is what gets MAGA fired up, not fiscal purity. His message was simple: you might like Elon, but Trump's the main character here. And look, none of these guys are policy wonks. But they are barometers. They're not jumping to Elon's defense. They're lining up behind the machine.Last One In, First One OutElon is learning in real time what it means to be new money in a political world that runs on tenure and loyalty. MAGA isn't a traditional political coalition. It's more like a federation of tribes — influencers, donors, operators — loosely tied together by a shared orbit around Trump. And in that world, being flashy doesn't count for much if you weren't in the trenches in 2016 or 2020. Elon came on board when it was already a moving train. Buying Twitter, firing woke staff, bringing Trump back to the platform — all of that scored him points. But that's not the same as being family.That's why I keep coming back to the same thought: last one in, first one out. Musk might be the richest guy in the world. He might own the place where MAGA influencers gather. But the moment he stepped out of line, they let him drift. Not a coordinated takedown. Just silence. And silence is brutal. He's not getting clowned like Bannon did when he got iced out. He's just floating — a slow, silent uncoupling from the people who used to cheer his every post.Now, Mike Johnson is supposed to speak to Elon about the bill today. Maybe that call smooths things over. Maybe Russ Vought or Stephen Miller reels him back in. Maybe he gets a seat at the table, tweaks the AI language, and declares victory. But right now, he's yelling about the CBO's deficit projections and getting politely ignored. And the MAGA coalition — the one he thought he'd conquered — is moving on without him.Chapters(Minor mic issues during the first 3 minutes of our interview with Kevin, stick with it.)00:00:00 - Intro00:02:57 - Elon vs. the Big Beautiful Bill00:16:36 - Interview with Kevin Ryan00:41:38 - Update00:41:56 - Trump's Travel Ban00:46:09 - Karine Jean-Pierre's Book00:51:46 - AOC Endorses Zohran Mamdani00:56:36 - Interview with Kevin Ryan, con't01:35:46 - Wrap-up This is a public episode.

Kash Patel and Dan Bongino appeared on Fox News today, doubling down on their stance that Jeffrey Epstein killed himself and defending their decision to hold off on releasing the Epstein files—for now. They also tore into James Comey, highlighting how his corruption still taints the FBI long after his exit. Next, Elon Musk announced he's stepping back from DOGE, saying that after months of proudly serving the country, it's time to refocus on his companies. Finally, the New York Times is fuming that the Trump administration is tracking down kids trafficked under Biden's watch. Karoline Leavitt says Jill Biden should be next in the crosshairs of the autopen scandal probe. Oh, and a massive Armenian fraud ring was busted in California, laundering $30 million in loans and COVID relief funds. We'll dive into all this and more on today's Untamed!
It's Monday, May 26th, A.D. 2025. This is The Worldview in 5 Minutes heard on 125 radio stations and at www.TheWorldview.com. I'm Adam McManus. (Adam@TheWorldview.com) By Adam McManus Armenian Christian details abuses in Iranian prison Hakop Gochumyan, an Armenian Christian arrested in Iran in 2023 for his Christian faith, recently sent a letter to Christian Solidarity Worldwide detailing abuses he's endured while imprisoned, reports International Christian Concern. In the letter, published on May 9, Gochumyan explained that Iranian authorities have “subjected [him] to psychological violence” and threatened to take his life and the lives of his family. Mervyn Thomas, president and founder of Christian Solidarity Worldwide, called for “Gochumiyan's immediate and unconditional release” and rallied the “international community … to hold Iranian authorities to account” for their human rights abuses. Gochumyan was detained just outside of Tehran, in Pardis, in August 2023 and sentenced to 10 years in prison in February 2024. His charges include “engaging in deviant proselytizing activity that contradicts the sacred law of Islam” by allegedly associating with “a network of evangelical Christianity.” The couple, along with their two children, were in Iran to visit family and, while attending a dinner at a friend's house, police arrived, and arrested them. Allegedly, Gochumyan possessed copies of Farsi-language New Testaments, which are banned in Iran, and had attended several churches during his visit. Spreading the Gospel of Christ to non-Christians is illegal in Iran. Additionally, possessing Bibles written in Farsi, the nation's official language, isn't allowed as it could draw a non-Christian to Jesus. Christian conversion is something the Iranian regime strongly discourages and attempts to dissuade, often through psychological manipulation, overt intimidation, physical abuse, and imprisonment. However, the light of Christ continues to shine in the region and cannot be extinguished. In John 8:12, Jesus said, “I am the light of the world. Whoever follows Me will not walk in darkness, but will have the light of life.” Trump vows a 25% tariff on iPhones if made in China or India President Donald Trump vowed to enact “at least” a 25% tariff on iPhones that are not manufactured and built in the United States — in a sharp warning to Apple CEO Tim Cook, reports One America News. Apple currently manufactures the majority of its iPhones in China, and does not have a domestic smartphone production supply chain. Apple announced a move to India in an effort to “diversify its supply chain and reduce reliance on China.” But Trump wants the iPhones built here in America. Judge overturns Biden rule forcing employers to allow time off for abortions A federal judge in Louisiana has struck down regulations that would have forced most U.S. employers to provide pregnant workers with time off to kill their babies by abortion, reports LifeNews.com. Issued Wednesday by U.S. District Judge David Joseph, the ruling invalidated a provision of the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission's regulations under the Pregnant Workers Fairness Act, which had been pushed during the Biden administration. Initially, the Pregnant Workers Fairness Act, which passed with bipartisan support in December 2022, was designed to ensure that employers, with 15 or more employees, provide reasonable accommodations for pregnant workers, such as time off for medical appointments or relief from heavy lifting. However, the Biden administration, to its shame, twisted the initial intent of the law to classify abortion as a “related medical condition” to pregnancy and childbirth. That forced pro-life employers to facilitate the termination of unborn lives against their moral and religious convictions. Alaskan volcano could blow Located 80 miles from Anchorage, Alaska, Mount Spurr is about to blow, reports the Alaska Volcano Observatory. The last time it blew was 1992. If you're picturing massive lava flows, think again, explains Canadian Broadcasting Corporation. The biggest threat will actually be the ash which could reach as high as 50,000 feet into the sky, according to DailyGalaxy.com. Volcanic ash could blanket Anchorage. If the eruption happens during daylight, the ash cloud could block out the sun for hours, plunging the area into total darkness. Ash is dangerous to breathe. It damages cars and machinery and can disrupt daily life. And then there's air travel. Ash could rise high into the atmosphere, and the tiny glass-like particles, can reharden inside jet engines, posing a serious threat. Since Alaska's airspace is a major route for Trans Pacific flights, this eruption could affect a lot more people than just those in Anchorage, including flights from Toronto to Seoul or Hong Kong to Memphis. Psalm 95:4-5 reminds us that God, Who created Mount Spurr, is in control. “In His hand are the depths of the Earth, and the mountain peaks belong to Him. The sea is His, for He made it, and His hands formed the dry land.” Tapper confessed: Conservative media was right about Biden's decline And finally, in an intriguing interview with Megyn Kelly, CNN's Jake Tapper confessed that “conservative media was right” about Biden's dramatic mental decline. Tapper's new book is entitled, Original Sin: President Biden's Decline, Its Cover-Up, and His Disastrous Choice to Run Again. Listen. KELLY: “Leading up to the debate which you anchored, that June 27 debate, 2024 there was a ton of news leading into that debate in that month. We looked back at your coverage and found that you ignored the freeze up that he had at the Juneteenth Celebration. You ignored what happened at the G7 when he, [Biden], wandered off and Giorgia Meloni, Prime Minister of Italy, had to go find him." TAPPER: “Megyn,” KELLY: “You ignored the freeze up at the George Clooney L.A. fundraiser. You didn't cover it. You only covered it after the debate, after George Clooney wrote his op-ed. Your network at every turn was telling us those were, ‘cheap fakes.' And you're not combating that narrative. CNN was actively misleading us on what our very eyes were showing us. That's the truth. That's the record.” TAPPER: “I will acknowledge that after I was named co-moderator of the [presidential] debate, I tried to make sure that my coverage was fairly vanilla, both about Trump and about Biden, because I just wanted to get to the debate. I remember that moment, the glitch at the immigration event, and not getting much attention outside of conservative media at all. “Alex and I are here to say the conservative media was right and conservative media was correct. There should be a lot of soul searching, not just among me, but among the legacy media to begin with, all of us, for how this was covered or not covered sufficiently. 100%. I mean, I'm not here to defend coverage that I've already acknowledged I wish I could do differently.” Prior to the release of this book, CNN's Jake Tapper, in his refusal to tell the truth about Biden's mental decline, did not heed the commandment found in Exodus 20:16. It says, “You shall not bear false witness.” Close And that's The Worldview on this Monday, May 26th, in the year of our Lord 2025.

Jake Tapper’s recent book tour for Original Sin has morphed into what many are calling an “apology tour.” The CNN anchor has publicly expressed regret for past actions, including a 2020 interview where he shut down Lara Trump over her comments about Joe Biden’s cognitive health. Tapper admitted he later called her to apologize, saying, “You were right.” The shift comes amid backlash over his book, which explores Biden’s decline and media complicity. Critics accuse Tapper of hypocrisy, having once defended Biden vigorously. His tour now includes repeated acknowledgments of past misjudgments, signaling a dramatic recalibration of his public stance.

Today's episode was a wild ride! Hosts Joe and David brought the heat, joined by guest Patrick Reilly—a self-described liberal with plenty to say. The conversation kicked off with Patrick diving into his take on the MAGA movement and unloading some sharp criticisms of Trump's agenda. Agree or disagree, he didn't hold back. Things got spicy fast as the trio clashed over Trump's tariffs, the J6 trials, trans issues, and a whole lot more. Tensions flared, voices rose, and the live audience? Let's just say they weren't exactly sending love notes. Amid the chaos, one question lingered: can common ground even be found in debates this raw? You'll have to decide for yourself. After Patrick signed off, Joe and David shifted gears, diving into how Xi Jinping might regret not brushing up on The Art of the Deal before tangling with Trump in a trade war. Trump's Liberation Day tariffs? A masterstroke, they argued—pure genius designed to squeeze China by isolating its allies. The takeaway: anyone siding with Xi could be in for an economic reckoning. The episode wrapped with some much-needed laughs, leaving us all a little lighter after the rollercoaster.
Joe started with a bombshell from the Colorado Senate and House. This weekend, Democrats rammed through four bills—SB25-183, HB25-1309, HB25-1312, and SB25-129—using Rules 14 and 16 to avoid pushback. Now, not “affirming” your kid's confusion could get you tagged for child abuse, and your tax dollars are funding abortions. Then, Joe dropped that Jena Griswold is running for Colorado Attorney General—more corruption on deck. He also covered paid protesters, with whistleblowers admitting they're taking cash to fuel chaos at anti-Doge and anti-Trump rallies. Things kicked up a notch when Kirk Widlund joined Joe for a solid two-hour segment. Kirk, a conservative media figure, talked about getting doxxed by Antifa. They found his home address and plastered his town with flyers trashing him—all for speaking out. He and Joe broke down how Antifa uses these tactics to shut people up, and Kirk shared what it's like to have your life turned upside down over it. Then they tackled the Eric Coomer situation. Joe laid out evidence tying the ex-Dominion exec to Antifa sympathies. They went over Coomer's deposition, where he admitted his social media posts were legit, and discussed that Antifa call where Coomer said he'd “make f-ing sure” Trump wouldn't win in 2020. The pair dug into what that means—his job at Dominion, his clear bias, and why the media's ignored it. They tied it to a bigger picture of operatives worming into key spots to push agendas, with Kirk linking it back to his own Antifa run-in.

It has been observed that in the realm of politics, decades can pass without significant change. The status quo remains unchallenged, and things continue as if they always will. However, in a matter of mere weeks, a condensed decade's worth of political upheaval can quickly transform everything, paving the way for new players, institutions, and a new future. Such is the case with the influential “conservative” news outlet Daily Wire. For almost ten years they were untouchable and able to gate keep the Overton window and rising stars. If the Daily Wire didn't like you, you were out on the street trying to make it on your own. But in the last two weeks Daily Wire Co-CEO Jeremy Boreing has been relieved, President Jon Lewis has supposedly stepped down, mass layoffs are underway, and Daily Wire is hiring bankruptcy Attorneys. Our guest, Dominic Tripi will have all of the details on that. This episode is brought to you by our premier sponsors, Armored Republic and Reece Fund, as well as our Patreon members and donors. You can join our Patreon at https://patreon.com/rightresponseministries or you can donate at https://rightresponseministries.com/donate.So tune in as we discuss it all: the Daily Wire, the death of moderate conservatism, and the new world for conservatives as we enter into what media might look like in the near future. *MINISTRY SPONSORS:**Private Family Banking*How to Connect with Private Family Banking:1.

Today's episode was a knockout punch! Joe Oltmann and David Clements welcomed a special guest, pro MMA fighter Jon Kunneman, live in the studio. The trio kicked things off with a deep dive into Jon's world—life as a professional fighter, his gritty battle with diabetes, and how it's shaped his career in the ring. Jon opened up about his idols, his rigorous training regimen, and his big dreams for life after the octagon. It was raw, real, and inspiring. After Jon stepped out, Joe and David turned up the heat on the latest headlines. The Tina Peters case is getting hotter by the minute—the Department of Justice is digging in, while the Colorado AG pushes back hard. One thing's clear: Tina's fight for justice is far from over, and we're watching every twist and turn. From there, we jumped into the news blitz: Trump's latest bold statements, the never-ending Signal leaks saga—seriously, the absurdity never stops. There's always something wild to unpack, and Joe and David didn't hold back. To cap it off, we had some fun at the expense of disgraced CNN journalist Kaitlan Collins. Watching her get shut down by White House heavyweights never gets old. Pro tip, Kaitlan: publish fake news about the prez, and don't expect a warm welcome. Cue the laughter—this crew knows how to bring the humor!
The partisan, Republican stopgap budget was narrowly passed by the Senate with the help of a few Democrats. Some Congressional Democrats view that vote as a betrayal. Plus, we look at how the conservative news media, often favorable of President Trump, is covering the economic consequences of his policies. Plus, we hear from Noor Abdalla, wife of Palestinian student and activist Mahmoud Khalil, who is now facing deportation over his role in campus protests.Learn more about sponsor message choices: podcastchoices.com/adchoicesNPR Privacy Policy
A swatting epidemic is targeting conservatives across the nation. Breanna Morello joins the show to provide some inside information. Senator Chuck Schumer (D-N.Y.) and the Democrats have completely flipped on a government shutdown and now support the CR spending bill backed by President Donald Trump. Anhueser-Busch Bud Light is suing Conservative Dad's Ultra Right Beer for copyright infringement, but founder Seth Weathers is fighting back! Pam Bondi is trying to smooth things out following her blunder with the Epstein documents. Is the DOJ back on the right track? Today's Guests: Sara is joined by CEO and founder of Conservative Dad's Ultra Right Beer, Seth Weathers. She is also joined in studio by Breanna Morello, host of "The Breanna Morello Show," Eric July, founder of Rippaverse Comics, and Logan Hall, Blaze Media digital strategist.

Elon Musk, Dan Scavino, and other figures close to President Trump appear to be seriously pushing to dismantle the IRS. With the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) now influencing the agency, layoffs have already begun, sparking widespread discontent. Momentum is building for a major overhaul, with proposals for a flat tax and tariffs—potentially dubbed 'The ERS'—emerging as replacements for the current tax system. Next, Peter Bernegger joins the show to expose senators caught 'smurfing' and provide an update on Tina Peters. But the surprises don't stop there: Pam Bondi's push for another red flag law raises questions about her motives, Trump scores a decisive victory over Jack Smith, and rumors swirl that the FBI may be targeting James Comey. Tune in for all this and more on today's unfiltered episode of Untamed!
It can't help but seem like DOGE is the gift that keeps on giving. In the past few weeks, it was USAID, the Department of Education, and others. Now, the IRS, the FAA, and possibly the Pentagon are on the chopping block next. But not everyone is happy. In fact, in the past week, there have been massive protests across the country against President Donald Trump and DOGE. Later, Jason Sullivan joins the show to discuss what's going on internationally—specifically, the peace agreements between Ukraine and Russia, and Zelensky's outright resistance to participate. All this and more on today's Untamed.
In this News Brief, we interview journalist and author Eoin Higgins about his new book, "Owned: How Tech Billionaires on the Right Bought the Loudest Voices on the Left," discuss the new model of tech billionaire funding, and detail how some of the biggest names in Left media became MAGA-aligned, Tucker-boosting petty, score-settlers.
