Since President Trump's second inauguration, more liberals, people of color and LGBTQ folks say they are buying guns and getting training. This is the latest in a trend that researchers, gun clubs and trainers say they've been watching for years. No longer do firearm buyers fit the old stereo-type of being white, rural and Republican. Today on The Sunday Story, NPR's Frank Langfitt shares his reporting on the changing face of American gun ownership.Learn more about sponsor message choices: podcastchoices.com/adchoicesNPR Privacy Policy
Dave Rubin of "The Rubin Report" talks to Scott Jennings about the arrest of Venezuela's Nicolás Maduro and what it signals for U.S. foreign policy; how the speed and competence of Trump-era military and law-enforcement operations in Venezuela and Iran have shocked the world; the importance of defending and enforcing the Monroe Doctrine against China and Russia in the Western Hemisphere; why Trump's practices are smart, limited engagement—not endless wars; how antisemitism is driving criticism of Israel and Trump, what a post-Maduro Venezuela could look like; the Minnesota fraud scandal and the collapse of Tim Walz's reelection bid; how independent journalist Nick Shirley exposed billions in alleged immigration-linked fraud ignored by mainstream media; how the story shattered the left's immigration narrative; how the Democrats are self sabotaging their midterm election chances by nominating socialist candidates in purple districts; how New York Mayor Zohran Mamdani's early actions look even worse than expected; the future of Western Europe, warning that countries like France and the UK face cultural and political decline without strong leadership; how mass immigration, crime, and feckless elites are destabilizing Europe and distorting foreign policy; how fringe radical progressive ideology has hijacked the Democratic Party, pushing it to lose on key 80/20 issues like immigration, climate, and gender politics; why Democrats will struggle electorally unless they shed radicalism ahead of 2028; and much more.
The Mango Mussolini had his worst week ever and we couldn't be more delighted. The fallout from the February 9th Mazar's letter firing Trump as a client has snowballed into something much worse for the former president as a judge ruled that he and his adult children must now sit for depositions. And if that weren't bad enough, a Washington DC judge has paved the way for a series of civil lawsuits holding Trump accountable for the January 6th insurrection to continue. Elie Honig joins Michael to divine how much legal rope Trump has to maneuver and how close we are to seeing an indictment.
Michael Wolff joins Joanna Coles to unpack the central illusion of Trump's presidency: that someone, somewhere knows what is going on—when in fact nobody does, least of all Trump himself. From Iran's uprising to Venezuela's phantom “invasion,” Wolff explains how Trump exploits uncertainty by announcing conflicts he has no intention of prosecuting, using noise, grandiosity, and endless talking to stay at the center of attention while avoiding real risk or consequence. The conversation ranges from ICE and Minneapolis to Greenland, shoes, height, and the limits of loyalty, before landing on the most dangerous question of all: What happens when Trump's talent for manufactured crises collides with a real one—Russia, Iran, or a nuclear threat he cannot simply talk his way out of?

We had a chaotic start to the new year with Donald Trump invading Venezuela and kidnapping dictator Nicolás Maduro. We're joined by The Atlantic's David Frum to help us make sense of and give us important context on the situation. Trump says that America is running the country and might be there for years to come. It sounds more like old-fashioned imperialism than a democratic transition.Trump has openly admitted that this is about oil. He says he's taking Venezuelan oil and putting it into a special account controlled only by the President. Isn't it the job of Congress to appropriate how money is spent in this country?We also discuss the administration's plans for Greenland. Are we actually prepared to seize it from our NATO ally, Denmark? Trump says yes. How crazy is that?!Al also shares his thoughts on the horrific situation in his home state of Minnesota as ICE's reckless aggression led to the murder of Renee Good.READ David Frum in The Atlantic: https://www.theatlantic.com/author/david-frum/LISTEN to The David Frum Show: https://www.theatlantic.com/podcasts/the-david-frum-show/SUPPORT THE SHOW BY VISITING OUR SPONSORS:Bundle up with some warm weather clothes from Quince!

Pirchner and Berman discuss the strategic importance of Greenland in the context of American defense and its relevance to the imperial ambitions of Russia. Additionally, they discuss the new AFPC publication, "Statecraft and Strategy," aimed at providing a comprehensive view of global trends and foreign policy issues, bridging the gap between partisan perspectives.

When the US government captured Venezuela's president, Nicolas Maduro, on Saturday, most of the world was shocked. But US officials had for years been gaming out different scenarios, including predicting what would happen if Maduro was ousted. According to one man who took part, each ended in disaster. On today's episode, we speak to the former Washington Post journalist Douglas Farah, who participated in war games on Venezuela during Donald Trump's first term, as well as during the Obama and Biden administrations. The Global Story brings clarity to politics, business and foreign policy in a time of connection and disruption. For more episodes, just search 'The Global Story' wherever you get your BBC Podcasts.

Tonight on Legal AF, Ben and Popok are at the helm to break down the biggest legal battles shaking the country right now. Congress runs to federal court demanding a special master to investigate the missing Epstein files, as pressure builds for transparency and accountability. State officials clash with Trump-aligned federal forces after the killing of Renee Good, a U.S. citizen shot by an ICE agent in Minneapolis. As the public demands answers, federal stonewalling raises serious civil rights and rule-of-law concerns. Calls grow for the impeachment of DHS Secretary Kristi Noem amid outrage over ICE conduct and Homeland Security leadership. Federal judges continue to push back against Trump's illegal U.S. Attorney appointments, with yet another U.S. Attorney fired by court order. The Supreme Court again refuses to side with Trump in major cases, signaling resistance from the Court's moderates and liberals. All this and more on the top rated Legal AF podcast.

This week on the Mark Levin Show, Mark announces plans for a new independent video podcast called "Liberty's Voice," aiming to launch it in the coming weeks, four days a week for about 30 minutes each in the morning. Video podcasting has taken a dark, hateful turn, filled with vile, racist, bigoted, and filthy content. This show will be clean, while demonstrating love for the country, defending capitalism, freedom, hard work, merit, and success. Michael Reagan, the eldest adopted son of President Ronald Reagan and Jane Wyman, passed away at age 80 in Los Angeles. He was a man of deep faith who overcame early issues to become an engaging and supportive figure, strongly defending his father, Ronald Reagan, and backing President Trump. He wasn't just the son of a president; he was a strong voice for conservative principles and a defender of the values that made this country great. The Democratic Party deliberately ignores and rewrites immigration laws to import unassimilated illegal aliens from around the world. They use empty slogans on equality and affordability while destroying the nation. There are Somali immigrants in Minneapolis who cluster, have large families, fail to assimilate, and exploit the system. America is at a point of no return unless all of this is reversed under President Trump. There's new information that contradicts what the Democrats and their media have been saying about Renee Nicole Good, the woman shot by an ICE agent. There's been an effort to portray her as a non-activist, but she was a Minneapolis ‘ICE Watch' ‘warrior' who was trained to resist the feds before the shooting. The Democrat party and their media are responsible for this shooting with their violent rhetoric. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices
On Friday's Mark Levin Show, there needs to be Republican unity ahead of the midterm elections. Any fraying or splintering—such as a handful of Republicans voting against President Trump's interests on key legislation—could lead to electoral losses, ended careers for some lawmakers, and two years of investigations and allegations plaguing the administration and supporters. Republicans must support the President's agenda, as Democrats are in a weak position with low ratings, but GOP disunity could hand them victories and drag down the party and conservative movement. Also, an Iranian regime collapse would reduce oil flows to Communist China from Iran and Venezuela. The Iranian people who are seeking freedom are enduring a horrendous police state amid widespread protests involving all ages, families, and backgrounds, despite being disarmed. The Iranian protestors need our help now, there needs to be immediate U.S. military action, without troops, to help. Later, there's an intentional invasion and a failure to act will lead to losing everything, as has happened in London, Paris, Canada, Australia, and now New York City. The Democrat Party is devoured by Stalinist and Islamist elements. There's a dark time in the country with escalating leftist violence backed by Democrat mayors and funded militias from billionaires and foreign entities like Qatar, aiming to overthrow the nation through groups like Cair. Finally, Jim Trusty calls in to break down the legal aspect of the ICE shooting in Minneopolis and Hamas supporters in NYC. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices
Allie's dad, Ron Simmons, kicks off his new twice-monthly Relatable series with a hard-hitting look at 2026's opening headlines: the U.S. military's January 3 capture of Venezuela's Nicolás Maduro, who is currently facing narco-terrorism and trafficking charges in New York. His capture was legally justified under precedents like Panamanian President Manuel Noriega's 1989 arrest, yet despite this, Democrats reveal their underlying hypocrisy and bemoan the terrorist's capture. Ron also unpacks the ill-fated Minneapolis shooting involving an ICE agent and a 37-year-old woman who was trying to impede federal agents. And he also looks at the White House's executive order push on housing affordability. Lastly, Ron answers listener questions in his segment “Words from the Wagon” on enduring faith, politics in relationships, GOP midterm strategy, and more.

After Mazars, Donald Trump's longtime accounting firm sent him a letter stating they would no longer represent him, nor could they standby the accuracy of his financial information, we're witnessing a full blown meltdown in Trumpworld. This could be what finally brings him to ruin. Talking Feds host Harry Litman joins to help Michael translate what it all means.
The shocking events of January have sent a message: America works differently now. M. Gessen is a Times Opinion columnist and the author of books about living under autocracy, including the National Book Award-winning “The Future Is History.” They have been a clear, relentless and perceptive voice on what it means and what it is like to live in a country that is turning into a different kind of regime. And they wrote an essay on the seizure of the president of Venezuela, calling it “a blow — quite likely fatal — to the new world order of law, justice and human rights that was heralded in the wake of World War II.” Mentioned:“329 Days of Trump” by Michael M.

Air Date: 1/9/2026 The Republican Party has been angry about every government service and regulation designed to help average people for at least the past 90 years. And, given any opportunity to hobble or destroy any of those services or regulations in the past decades, they've done just that. Now, after 15 years of striving to destroy the Affordable Care Act - itself originally a conservative plan from the Heritage Foundation (not joking) - they're using the cult-like hold that Trump has on the party to move faster and more recklessly than they are usually able. And again, average people are going to pay the price in both dollars and deaths. Be part of the show!

Mike breaks down the U.S. abduction of Nicolas Maduro, arguing that Donald Trump's penchant for exaggeration shouldn't blind us to actual strategic successes. He digs into why media "truth-tracking" often fails to account for real-world military outcomes, using the Fordow strikes and the defeat of ISIS as proof that a leader's bad narration doesn't always mean a failed mission. Plus... A vault interview with Oxford's Ben Ansell on "FADFO"—the phenomenon of "fucking around and not finding out"—and how modern guardrails allow political radicals to escape the consequences of the chaos they create.

We start the week in Minneapolis where a 37-year-old woman was shot and killed by an ICE officer on Wednesday. Authorities claim the woman attacked officers while they were digging their car out of the snow, but video from the scene and the municipal officials heavily dispute that claim.This week GOP lawmakers from Minnesota testified at a hastily-scheduled House Oversight Committee hearing about welfare fraud scandal allegations in their state. And on Tuesday, the Department of Health and Human Services froze $10 billion in five states including Minnesota, New York, California, Illinois and Colorado. That funding covers childcare subsidies, cash support for low-income families, and other social services.Meanwhile, its been nearly one week since Venezuelan president Nicolás Maduro and his wife Cilia Flores were captured by U.S. forces and brought to face charges of narco-terrorism on American soil.And the Trump administration's actions in Venezuela are having ripple effects across the globe. Europe is on edge as the U.S president this week suggested the territory could be in his crosshairs next, raising questions about America's relationship with NATO.Also this week, President Donald Trump signed an executive order suspending U.S. support for global 66 organizations, agencies, and commissions, following his administration's review of participation in and funding for all international organizations.Find more of our programs online.

You saw it. We all saw it. We all saw what happened in Minneapolis when an ICE agent shot and killed Renee Good for the crime of being in her car. This week on Amicus, Dahlia Lithwick and Mark Joseph Stern attempt to digest this week's horrific events and wonder if there is even a possibility of justice. Dahlia recommends “They Didn't Even Need A Deepfake” by Slate's Molly Olmstead.Later in the show, Mark speaks with Brian Finucane, a senior advisor to the International Crisis Group. He spent a decade in the U.S. State Department's Office of the Legal Adviser. Brian and Mark discuss the lawlessness of Trump's foreign policy (cough cough, Venezuela), and how the administration's approach embraces some of the worst aspects of tough-guy masculinity.Want more Amicus?

IRAN'S QUEST FOR SUPREMACY AND FUTURE NUCLEAR NEGOTIATIONS Colleague Brandon Weichert. Weichert discusses Iran's ultimate goal of regional supremacy, describing the regime as the "octopus brain" directing proxies like Hamas and Hezbollah to attack Israel. He notes that his book anticipated the proxy attacks that occurred on October 7. Looking forward, Weichert analyzes potential US responses, contrasting the flaws of the original JCPOA—specifically its sunset clauses which would have allowed nuclear weapons by 2025—with a potentially tougher stance under a second Trump term. The segment concludes with the grim warning that the regime may choose destruction over abandoning its nuclear ambitions. SHADOW WAR BY BRANDON WEICHERT NUMBER 41960 NASSER IN DAMASCUS
