Podcasts about Dark money

Why is the Epstein client list still hidden? Why has there been no real justice for Charlie Kirk? And why is America expected to stay tied at the hip with Israel, no matter the cost to our own citizens?And are all of these things somehow connected?Let's break down the layers of corruption, the political cowardice protecting the powerful, and the urgent need for transparency, accountability, and national independence.--https://www.bible.com/

How is money, especially Dark Money, affecting Idaho politics?

Light Beer | Dark Money welcomes back our good friend and long-time guest, Congressman David Schweikert, for a comprehensive examination of the nation's looming fiscal crisis and the economic headwinds facing both the United States and the State of Arizona. Congressman Schweikert provides a detailed assessment of the country's budget trajectory, long-term entitlement pressures, and the policy solutions necessary to restore financial stability and sustainable growth. Chris and Congressman Schweikert also engage in an extended and substantive discussion about America's healthcare crisis — emphasizing that the true drivers of cost are structural and technological, not simply fiscal. They outline why the system cannot be repaired through additional subsidies and spending alone, and how Congressman Schweikert has been at the forefront of advancing the technological and systemic reforms required to meaningfully bend the cost curve. Finally, Congressman Schweikert addresses his prospective run for Governor of Arizona, explaining why the state's escalating debt, stagnant rural economies, and growing poverty demands new leadership and urgent policy intervention. This episode is essential listening for anyone concerned about the economic direction of Arizona and the nation.

It's been building for weeks, but after this week's election results, Republican infighting has officially hit a fever pitch.It's like any anxious period in life, the kind where you don't even realize something big is coming until you look back on it in hindsight. Over the past two weeks conservative movement has quietly been eating itself alive with a fight that, on the surface, was about Tucker Carlson's podcast interview with Nick Fuentes. But with this issue finally breaking containment after Tuesday, well, let's be honest — this wasn't really about that. It's about a party that knows, deep down, Donald Trump won't be on the ballot ever again, and they're worried they have no idea what to do next.This wasn't just any dumb online spat. Tucker Carlson, once the crown jewel of Fox News, now runs his own operation, and his guest list has been getting increasingly controversial. Nick Fuentes certainly falls into that category; he's the dead center of outright racism and anti-Semitism, and he's not particularly quiet about it. And yet, here he is, being given a platform by Carlson.Now, I don't think this was surprising. Tucker once interviewed the president of Iran, after all. No, here, the outrage was less about the specifics and more about what it revealed. The conservative world is split between those who want to double down on the bomb-throwing populism and those who would very much prefer a nice, quiet, electable figure in a navy blazer.And look, the fear is justified. When Trump isn't on the ballot, Republican turnout tanks. Nobody has yet figured out how to get those same voters off their couches and into a polling booth. JD Vance is trying to play crown prince to the MAGA throne, but we still don't know if he's got the juice. And sure, someone like Marco Rubio might look good on paper, but 2016 already taught us what happens when you try to play establishment kingmaker in a populist uprising. Meanwhile, the fringes of the movement are getting louder. The Fuentes crowd isn't interested in compromise — they want the whole thing, and they'll torch the place if they don't get it.The result? A Republican Party that's stuck between an ever-unpredictable Trump and a base that only shows up for him. A coalition that used to rely on reliable suburban voters now hopes that low-propensity working-class Americans will carry the load. That's not a gamble you want to be making blindly. The anxiety isn't just about who says what on a podcast — it's existential. Who inherits this movement, and can they actually win anything with it?Trump isn't going to unite anybody. He'll back whoever flatters him most and ditch them the second they falter. There's no Mar-a-Lago summit where everyone hugs it out and agrees on a future. There's just this slow-motion car crash of conflicting ambitions, bad blood, and rising panic. And, yes, it might just get worse before it gets better.Chapters00:00:00 - Intro00:02:59 - Republican Problems00:14:01 - Interview with Dave Levinthal00:26:21 - Update00:27:23 - Shutdown Deal?00:29:41 - Maybe Not...00:30:24 - Unless...

Gareth elaborates on the historical context and modern operations of Opus Dei, including its recruitment and coercive practices.

 The Government Accountability Institute digs into the deep pockets of dark money behind Riot, Inc., the network of "grassroots" organizations backing No Kings, which wasn't spontaneous. It was SUBSIDIZED. Matt Taibbi exposes the true Trump hatred and corruption at FEMA and Karine Jean Pierre gets grilled by democrats over Joe Biden's cognitive breakdown. How could she not know?

The hour opens with concerns about dark money and foreign influence behind protests like the No Kings rally, along with criticism of campus demonstrations supporting Hamas and the rising acceptance of political violence. Tom Ackerman then covers sports including Indiana's surge under Curt Cignetti, Mizzou's comeback over Auburn, the Blues at 3–2 after beating Dallas, and ALCS Game 7 with the Dodgers favored and Shohei Ohtani shining. The hour ends by returning to the No Kings rally and questioning who funded it and what the real purpose was.

Hans von Spakovsky breaks down how dark money networks like Arabella and Tides quietly fund anti-Trump protests with no donor transparency. He explains that while nonprofits can shield domestic donors, foreign governments are legally barred yet globalist and Marxist interests still influence movements through these channels. He compares today's defiance of federal law to past eras including the Civil Rights period and pre-Civil War resistance. Hans ends with a warning about the growing acceptance of political violence.

Ryan Schmelz of Fox News Radio reports on the fourth week of the government shutdown, negotiation scenarios, and the impact on federal workers. Hans von Spakovsky from the Heritage Foundation explains how dark money groups fund anti-Trump protests and warns about rising tolerance for political violence. Nicole Murray delivers business headlines with earnings and markets. To wrap the hour, In Other News.

The show opens with the latest on the federal shutdown and stalled negotiations in Washington before shifting to the No Kings protest and concerns about dark money, foreign influence, and 501c3 networks shielding donors. The hosts also examine the rise in tolerance for political violence and criticize campus protests supporting Hamas. Ryan Schmelz of Fox News Radio joins with a report on the shutdown, political strategy, and national reaction. Hans von Spakovsky of the Heritage Foundation breaks down donor secrecy in networks like Arabella and Soros, the legal gaps allowing influence in protest movements, and the threat of foreign money in U.S. politics. Jonathan Savage of Fox News Radio provides a Middle East briefing on the Israel Hamas cease fire strain, Israeli strikes, hostage negotiations, and uncertainty over Hamas leadership. In the Buck Dont Give a ____ segment, the guest is Willful Positivity, a legal immigrant, who gives a first hand perspective on immigration, vetting, and border enforcement and contrasts it with the rhetoric seen at the No Kings protest. Tom Ackerman closes with sports coverage, including Indiana's rise to number two under Curt Cignetti after beating Michigan State, Mizzou's comeback over Auburn and tough SEC stretch ahead, the Blues improving to 3–2 with a win over Dallas, and the MLB playoffs with ALCS Game 7 between the Blue Jays and Mariners and the Dodgers viewed as the World Series favorite with Shohei Ohtani standing out.

Campaign cash is flowing fast in the 2026 South Carolina governor's race — but where's it coming from, and who's really benefiting?

From campaign war chests to ideological warfare — this is politics in America today.

We explore how money has corrupted our political process and turned our economy into a casino-like system that requires many losers to sustain a few winners.• America's political system has evolved into an oligarchy where running for office requires millions of dollars• The financial barrier to political participation filters out average Americans and labor interests• Our "hamster wheel economy" functions like a casino where "the house always wins"• Both political parties serve donor interests rather than voter concerns• Artificial polarization keeps Americans distracted from bipartisan consensus on military spending and corporate subsidies• U.S. foreign policy in Israel-Palestine and Ukraine primarily serves special interests rather than American needs• The rise of counter-alliances like BRICS and simultaneous confrontation with multiple powers creates conditions for potential global conflict• Looking beyond partisan labels is essential to understanding and addressing America's structural problemsCheck out Jose's podcast "El Nino Speaks" and follow him on Twitter for more of his independent political analysis that crosses traditional partisan boundaries.Follow Jose Nino at ...His substack which contains the podcasthttps://josbcf.substack.com/Twitterhttps://x.com/JoseAlNinoSupport the showFollow your host atYouTube and Rumble for video contenthttps://www.youtube.com/channel/UCUxk1oJBVw-IAZTqChH70aghttps://rumble.com/c/c-4236474Facebook to receive updateshttps://www.facebook.com/EliasEllusion/Twitter (yes, I refuse to call it X)https://x.com/politicallyht LinkedIn https://www.linkedin.com/in/eliasmarty/

We look at the outsized influence of a small and secretive Catholic institution, Opus Dei, from Spain's dictator Franco, right up to the present day. And the bank it secretly controlled for sixty years: "This sounds a bit like a bit of conspiracy theory but trust me, it's very real. It's in almost every major city around the world and it's quite ruthless. It's close to the Trump regime because they share a lot of common ground." ~ Gareth Gore, journalist and author Plus: in the latest twist in the epic battle to end anonymous ownership in the United States, the US's financial regulator FinCEN has announced that only 'foreign businesses' with 'foreign owners' will now be required to report ownership information to the federal government. It's announced plans to actually delete ownership information that ‘US companies' have already submitted. We look at the options to stop the US sliding even further into a corruption abyss: "The US is making a commitment to stay at the back of the pack compared to the rest of the world." ~ Erica Hanichak, FACT Coalition Co-produced by host Naomi Fowler and Leo Schick.

The U.S. Supreme Court has vastly reshaped American democracy — rolling back voting rights, enabling secret money in politics and expanding presidential power. These decisions have a real impact on all Americans by making it harder for citizens to exercise their freedom to vote, easier for wealthy interests to sway elections and more difficult to hold leaders accountable.In this episode, host Simone Leeper speaks with law professor and co-host of the Strict Scrutiny Podcast Leah Litman, Campaign Legal Center Senior Vice President Bruce V. Spiva and Campaign Legal Center Campaign Finance Senior Counsel David Kolker. Together, they unpack the real-world impact of landmark Supreme Court decisions — from voting rights cases like Shelby County v. Holder and Brnovich v. DNC to campaign finance rulings like Citizens United — and explore what reforms could restore balance, accountability and trust in the Court.Timestamps:(00:05) — What do Americans really think about the Supreme Court?(02:18) — Why does the Supreme Court's power matter for democracy?(07:01) — How did Shelby County v. Holder weaken voting rights?(16:39) — What was the impact of Brnovich v. DNC?(23:39) — How has the Supreme Court reshaped campaign finance?(29:24) — Why did Citizens United open the floodgates for money in politics?(32:37) — How have super PACs changed elections?(34:02) — How have wealthy special interests reshaped U.S. elections?(35:44) — What does presidential immunity mean for accountability?(37:30) — How do lifetime seats protect the Supreme Court from accountability?(39:22) — What role can Congress play in restoring trust and democracy?Host and Guests:Simone Leeper litigates a wide range of redistricting-related cases at Campaign Legal Center, challenging gerrymanders and advocating for election systems that guarantee all voters an equal opportunity to influence our democracy.

The “left” is a wide spectrum with ever deepening divides. This week’s essay highlights two newsworthy items that perfectly illustrate the fracture between leftists and liberals and how we’re willing to accept anything on the Democratic side that shows signs of life; even if those things are undemocratic in nature. Part one addresses the fallout from the Wired Magazine article uncovering the relationship between online creators and a group called Chorus. The second part addresses California’s move to neutralize Texas’ recent redistricting effort designed to pick up Republican House seats in the midterms.

On August 27, journalist Taylor Lorenz reported for Wired on a dark-money project funded byanonymous Democratic Party donors to shape social media. Her article documented that,"In a private group chat in June, dozens of Democratic political influencers discussed whether totake advantage of an enticing opportunity. They were being offered $8,000 per month to takepart in a secretive program aimed at bolstering Democratic messaging on the internet.But the contract sent to them from Chorus, the nonprofit arm of a liberal influencer marketingplatform, came with some strings. Among other issues, it mandated extensive secrecy aboutdisclosing their payments and had restrictions on what sort of political content the creatorscould produce."I talked to Taylor about her article and the considerable backlash it provoked from the peopleshe wrote about. We also discussed why Republicans have done so well on social media andwhy this latest effort is both morally dubious and ineffective.Advertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy

Jarrod Shanahan returns to the show to talk about his new book, Every Fire Needs a Little Bit of Help. But first, we are owed dark money where is our dark money Every Fire Needs a Little Bit of Help collects a decade of reflections on recent US struggles—Occupy Wall Street, Black Lives Matter, and the George Floyd Rebellion—alongside accounts of the rise of Trumpism, the alt-right, an apocalyptic shift in popular culture, to paint a dense and complex portrait of a decade of protracted social crisis. Jarrod Shanahan reports from the ground. On the streets in 2014, from the depths of the Rikers Island penal complex, inside the alt-right underground and the carnival of Trump rallies, and in the line of fire in Kenosha, Wisconsin in 2020, among other scenes that Shanahan accessed not as a credentialed observer but an active participant: prisoner, infiltrator, activist. The resulting essays outline the pitfalls and opportunities facing those seeking to reverse the suicidal course of capitalist society and build a liberated world.
