These back-to-back broadcasts lay out a sweeping indictment of what the host describes as the Democratic Party's embrace of radicalism and rising political violence. The first segment dissects the candidacy of a self-described Marxist running for mayor of New York, whose platform includes abolishing police, seizing property, and hostility toward Israel—accusations of antisemitism included. The second segment shifts to alarming revelations about Iranian assassination plots targeting Donald Trump, the infiltration of U.S. borders by missiles, and the apparent failures—and promotions—within the Secret Service. Together, these reports paint a picture of a nation drifting toward chaos, where extremist ideologies flourish and security institutions allegedly fail to protect their most high-profile target.

This segment delves into shocking reports of activists sabotaging ICE vehicles in Los Angeles with homemade spike strips—an act the hosts call domestic terrorism. The discussion expands into Axios revelations that House Democrats, speaking anonymously, described their own constituents demanding violence, including calls for bloodshed and open defiance of laws to resist Trump policies. As Hakeem Jeffries stops short of condemning such rhetoric in a CNN interview, the hosts argue this signals tacit approval of escalation. The episode concludes with commentary on New York politics, claiming rising support for radical candidates and a troubling mainstreaming of extremist ideas under the Democratic banner.

Two members of the Canadian Armed Forces are among four men facing charges over a plot to violently seize land in Quebec. The RCMP has laid terrorism-related charges alleging that the men amassed a large cache of weapons, motivated by anti-government ideology. We speak to Jessica Davis, a former CSIS analyst, about what we know so far — and what questions remain. Then, researcher Amarnath Amarasingam discusses what this case reveals about ideological extremism in Canada's military, and how experts say the Armed Forces should respond.

An RCMP sergeant says that traditional values are an indicator of extremism. A non-partisan think tank is raising doubts about the significance of abolishing interprovincial trade barriers, calling the efforts “political theatre.” A growing number of patients are dying in British Columbia while stuck on lengthy waitlists.  Tune into The Daily Brief with Isaac Lamoureux and Geoff Knight!

This comprehensive analysis exposes what hosts describe as an alarming surge of far-left extremism targeting ICE agents, law enforcement, and political figures. Across multiple incidents—including assassination attempts, embassies attacked, and violent riots—they argue that Democratic leaders have not only failed to condemn the violence but have enacted policies that endanger federal agents. The discussion links these attacks to foreign influence, especially Iranian and Chinese funding, suggesting an unprecedented threat from adversaries exploiting America's internal divisions. From unmasking ICE officers to threats against Trump and infiltration by radical networks, the segments paint a picture of escalating guerrilla warfare and warn of profound national security consequences if this convergence of domestic extremism and foreign interests remains unchallenged.

These two segments explore escalating attacks on ICE agents and the broader surge of far-left violence across America. The hosts condemn proposed legislation to force ICE officers to reveal their identities even as they face assassination attempts. They argue that Democrat leaders have not only failed to condemn these ambushes but have emboldened radical factions. The conversation also connects the violence to foreign adversaries, claiming Iranian funding and influence are fueling domestic unrest and targeting political figures like Donald Trump. Together, these discussions paint a stark portrait of what they see as an unprecedented convergence of extremist ideology, partisan politics, and international threats undermining national security.

Hello Initiates! A little something different for you this week! The first of our two part, 4 1/2 hour deep dive into the notorious Turner Diaries - a book so extreme, we had to double-check it wasn't satire. Spoiler: it's deadly serious, but that didn't stop us from bringing our signature irreverence to the discussion.Here, in Part One, we break down the early chapters and try to make sense of the book's wildest claims.. from drive-by bombings to the jaw-dropping idea that feminism would somehow lead to the legalization of rape. The hateful rhetoric is appalling, but the logic is so twisted, sometimes all you can do is laugh.We don't pull punches calling out the racism, misogyny, and antisemitism, but we also make sure to highlight just how preposterous and self-defeating these arguments are. Because honestly, ridicule is one of the best tools we have against hate.Throughout the episode, we reflect on how far society has come (and how far we still have to go) in challenging bigotry and conspiracy thinking. With Greg Hall's insights and our own lived experiences, we connect the dots between these extremist ideas and the rhetoric we see online today.So join us as we take on The Turner Diaries armed with critical thinking, a refusal to let hate go unchallenged, and, as always, a healthy dose of SDCIC humour. It's grim, it's outrageous, but we promise it's never boring.- We introduce The Turner Diaries and its author, William Pierce, setting the stage for why this book matters in extremist circles.- Break down the early plot: the “Organization's” violent tactics, including bombings and drive-by attacks.- Highlight the book's ludicrous leaps in logic—especially its claim that feminism leads to the legalization of rape.- Call out the novel's overt racism, antisemitism, and scapegoating, exposing its conspiracy tropes.- Discuss how the book frames liberalism, feminism, and civil rights as existential threats.- Share our real-time reactions to the most shocking and preposterous passages.- Draw parallels between the book's arguments and today's far-right talking points and online discourse.- Reflect on how attitudes toward race, gender, and tolerance have changed—and why challenging bigotry is crucial.- Greg Hall brings context on the roots of modern extremist rhetoric and the dangers of normalizing hate.- Through it all, we tackle the book's absurdities with our signature SDCIC humour, making sure even the darkest material gets the ridicule it deserves.LISTEN TO PART TWO: https://www.patreon.com/posts/turner-diaries-132792226AD FREE EPISODES ARE AVAILABLE AT https://www.patreon.com/somedarecallitconspiracy FOR JUST $2 PER MONTH TWO EPISODES PER WEEK AVAILABLE FOR $5 (PATREONS ARE CURRENTLY 5 EPISODES OF T.W.A.T.S.

Send us a textThis prescient conversation with Richard Falk, international law expert and former U.N. Special Rapporteur on human rights in Occupied Palestine, anticipates the catastrophe that has been unfolding in Gaza for the past 18 months. In an interview recorded January of 2023, Falk discusses the significance of Israel's 2018 nation-state law and Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's assertion that Israel possesses exclusive right to all of the Land of Israel. Brazenly defying international law, the assertion repudiates the two-state solution to the Israeli-Palestinian struggle that has been promoted by the international community for decades. Professor Falk says Netanyahu's claim on behalf of Israel to all of historic Palestine, including the West Bank, represents the final chapter in the Zionist enterprise. Like successful settler-colonial projects in the United States, Australia, Canada and New Zealand, it will entail the elimination or complete marginalization of the indigenous population. Falk paints a somber scenario of what it is likely to mean for the Palestinians unless civil society mobilizes to defend them.

On Saturday, Destiny Church held a protest in the Auckland CBD under the slogan “no immigration without assimilation”, denouncing non-Christian religions and other groups in Aotearoa. The demonstration, which Destiny Church leader Brian Tamaki described as a “lawful, peaceful protest”, involved the destruction and burning of flags including the Palestinian flag and the Rainbow Pride flag. Leaders from a collection of ethnic community groups have called for the toughening of hate speech laws in response to the intolerance displayed at this protest action, which political figures like Deputy Prime Minister David Seymour and Police Minister Mark Mitchell condemned as “unkiwi”, and “vile rhetoric and behaviour”. Seeking to dive deeper into the issue of extremism and hostility towards diverse cultures in New Zealand, I spoke with far right and alt-right extremism expert Byron Clark about the protest and the existence of these groups in Aotearoa. Producer Sara began the interview by asking Clark to explain the kind of ideologies that were on display at the protest.

Today host Dominic Bowen is joined by Mauro Lubrano. Mauro is a Lecturer in International Relations and Politics at University of Bath and earned his PhD from the University of St Andrews with his research revolving primarily around terrorism and political violence. The rise of AI coinciding with the rise and intensification of global crises shows a surgence of groups who want to dismantle the technological system as we know it today. It raises the question as to whether anti-technology extremism has the potential to become a significant driver of political violence. In our conversation with Mauro today, we hope to gain an insight on Anti-Technology Extremism. He recently published a new book Stop the Machines: The Rise of Anti-Technology Extremism which discusses this topic. Mauro's PhD thesis and more recent works examine the processes of terrorist innovation, seeking to understand the rationale and dynamics of operational and strategic changes in terrorist organisations. His most recent project has embarked on a systematic analysis of organisational dynamics in horizontal and ‘leaderless' terrorist networks, looking at how ‘informal' leaders manage to provide operational guidance and inspiration in decentralised settings. Mauro's work has been published in multiple leading journals, including Terrorism and Political Violence, Studies in Conflict & Terrorism, and Perspectives on Terrorism, and he has collaborated with several think tanks and public institutions across Europe and the USA.The International Risk Podcast is a must-listen for senior executives, board members, and risk advisors.

"From the Frontlines" is an ADL podcast which brings listeners to the frontline in the battle against antisemitism and hate. Right now, that frontline is a dangerous one for Jewish communities. Two weeks ago, in Boulder, Colorado, fifteen people were injured, including an 88-year-old Holocaust survivor, and the attacker had 16 more Molotov cocktails ready to throw. The perpetrator spent a year planning to target peaceful Jewish community members showing solidarity with Israeli hostages. This is the second violent attack on the U.S. Jewish community in just two weeks, and it follows closely on the heels of the torching of Governor Shapiro's home in Pennsylvania during Passover because of his support for Israel. Since January 2020, ADL's Center on Extremism has documented 16 terrorist plots or attacks targeting Jews, with nine of those incidents occurring within just the past 12 months. We are living through what we can only describe as an unprecedentedly high threat environment. Susan Rona joined the podcast to discuss this attack and offer an insider look at what happened that day and what has been the aftermath. She is the Regional Director of ADL's Mountain States Region based in Colorado and has been on the ground responding to this attack and supporting the affected community. Susan has been working around the clock with law enforcement, community leaders, and the victims in the aftermath of what the FBI is calling a targeted act of terrorism This podcast was recorded on June 13, 2025.

Tommy Robinson reflects on his activism and the evolution of his views on multiculturalism in the UK. He shares his experience growing up in Luton, witnessing the rise of jihadist groups, and the challenges his community faced with gang violence, terrorism, and the lack of support from local authorities.

In a recent interview with podcast host Alan Skorski, investigative researcher Ryan Mauro of the Capital Research Center sounded the alarm on what he described as an increasingly dangerous coalition of extremist groups operating in the United States under the banner of pro-Palestinian activism. Mauro, who has spent years researching radical networks including Students for Justice in Palestine (SJP), Columbia University Apartheid Divest (CUAD), and the Marxist-linked Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine (PFLP), claims that nearly 500 groups across the country are united not only by hostility toward Israel, but by a broader agenda to undermine the United States. “Many of these extremist groups hate Israel because of America—not the other way around,” Mauro told Skorski, challenging what he says is a commonly held assumption about the motivations behind anti-Israel activism. Among the most concerning groups identified in his research is Unity of Fields (UoF), a Palestinian group that explicitly promotes militant protest tactics and has engaged in direct confrontations with U.S. police. Mauro said the group's stated mission is to “disrupt and dismantle Zionism and U.S. imperialism through direct militant actions.” The group frequently deploys slogans such as “No cops, no KKK, no Fascist USA!” and refers to the NYPD as “IOF-trained pigs,” a reference to the Israel Defense Forces. In a recent paper titled Marching Towards Violence, Mauro reports that anarchist groups are increasingly aiming to operate as an “anti-police wannabe insurgency.” He said that his research tracked 150 of the most active “pro-Palestinian” groups on social media in the 15 months before and after the October 7 Hamas-led terror attack in Israel. The findings showed a 186% increase in anti-American rhetoric and a more than 3,000% rise in posts calling for violence on U.S. soil. Mauro also warned of an unlikely alliance between far-left and far-right elements seeking to exploit civil unrest in the U.S. “They believe that once the system collapses, their ideology will rise to the top,” he said. “It's an accelerationist strategy.” Despite what he describes as a current moment of unity among radical groups, Mauro predicts internal fractures ahead. He believes Indian Hindus may become the next target of the radical coalition due to tensions between India and Pakistan. “Once these groups pivot to attacking Hindus, it will become clear they were never about Palestine,” Mauro said. “They jump from cause to cause to create chaos and insurgency in America.” Mauro also emphasized the threat posed by far-right antisemitism, pointing to conspiracy theories spread by figures such as Tucker Carlson and controversial statements from conservative commentator Candace Owens. “The far-left's antisemitism is dangerous, but the far-right can't be ignored,” Mauro said. “We're seeing toxic ideologies from both ends feeding into the same destructive current.” Mauro's research, including publications such as When Charities Betray America: How “Pro-Palestinian” Protest Groups Promote Anti-Americanism and Pro-Hamas Extremism Taking Root in America, forms part of an expanding body of work examining domestic extremism and its links to global terror movements.

According to Deborah Baker, author of Charlottesville: An American Story, America has become the Charlottesville of the Unite the Right Rally of August 12, 2017. Baker, who grew up in Charlottesville in the shadow of Jefferson's Monticello, watched in shock as neo-Nazis marched through her hometown in August 2017 with torches and flags. What began as her attempt to understand how such hatred could manifest in a progressive college town became a deeper reckoning with America's buried histories and recurring tragedies. The fascist ideologies that once seemed confined to internet forums and fringe rallies have now, she argues, been institutionalized at the highest levels of government. The warning signs were there in 2017—but too many people, from university administrators to progressive leaders, chose to look away. If we close our eyes, she warns, it won't go away. five key takeaways1. America Has Institutionalized ExtremismWhat began as fringe internet movements and basement trolling has now moved into the mainstream of American politics and government institutions. The ideologies that shocked people in Charlottesville 2017 are now, according to Baker, embedded at the highest levels of power.2. Progressive Institutions Failed to Take the Threat SeriouslyUniversity administrators, mayors, and police chiefs in liberal Charlottesville told citizens to "stay home" and ignore the approaching Unite the Right rally. This pattern of progressive leadership closing their eyes to fascist organizing represents a dangerous institutional failure that continues today.3. White Supremacy Has Always Married Anti-Semitism with Anti-Black RacismThe Nazi flags at Charlottesville weren't separate from the Confederate monuments debate. White supremacist ideology consistently portrays Jews as the puppet masters behind Black civil rights movements, combining European fascism with Southern white supremacy into a unified hateful worldview.4. America's "Buried Histories" Keep RepeatingBaker discovered that Charlottesville had experienced a similar white supremacist rally in the 1950s that had been completely forgotten. This pattern of burying ugly chapters allows the same mistakes to be repeated, as communities fail to learn from their past encounters with organized hate.5. Economic and Political Destabilization Creates Fertile Ground for FascismThe conditions that radicalized figures like Richard Spencer include the "forever wars," the 2008 financial crisis, and the broader betrayal of working-class Americans. These "self-inflicted wounds" by American institutions create the chaos that fascist movements exploit to gain followers.Deborah Baker was born in Charlottesville and grew up in Virginia, Puerto Rico and New England. She attended the University of Virginia and Cambridge University. Her first book, written in college, was Making a Farm: The Life of Robert Bly, published by Beacon Press in 1982. After working as a book editor and publisher, in 1990 she moved to Calcutta where she wrote In Extremis; The Life of Laura Riding. Published by Grove Press and Hamish Hamilton in the UK, it was shortlisted for the Pulitzer Prize in Biography in 1994. Her third book, A Blue Hand: The Beats in India was published by Penguin Press USA and Penguin India in 2008. In 2008–2009 she was a Fellow at the Dorothy and Lewis C. Cullman Center for Writers and Scholars at The New York Public Library. There she researched and wrote The Convert: A Tale of Exile and Extremism, a narrative account of the life of an American convert to Islam. Published by Graywolf and Penguin India, The Convert was a finalist for the 2011 National Book Award in Non-Fiction. The Last Englishmen: Love, War and the End of Empire was published in October 2018. For this book she received a Whiting Creative Non-fiction grant and a Guggenheim fellowship. Charlottesville is her sixth work of narrative non-fiction. She is married to the writer Amitav Ghosh and lives in Brooklyn and Charlottesville.Named as one of the "100 most connected men" by GQ magazine, Andrew Keen is amongst the world's best known broadcasters and commentators.

Send us a textOn today's episode, Jacob Ware from the Council on Foreign Relations returns to discuss the state of U.S. domestic terrorism after the 2024 U.S. Elections. We cover whether the definition of terrorism has been weaponized against marginalized communities by the Trump administration, and debate on whether the charges against Luigi Mangione can be considered terroristic. InstagramThe Social Chemist (@socialchemistig) • Instagram photos and videosThreadThe Social Chemist (@socialchemistig) on ThreadsJacob Ware's Social MediaJacob Ware (@Jacob_A_Ware) / XJacob Ware (@jacobware.bsky.social) — BlueskyJacob Ware's Lawfare Article Luigi Mangione and the Making of a ‘Terrorist' | LawfareJacob Ware's BookGod, Guns, and Sedition: Far-Right Terrorism in America (A Council on Foreign Relations Book): Hoffman, Bruce, Ware, Jacob: 9780231211222: Amazon.com: BooksThe Social Chemist Substack ArticlesCan Liberals differentiate between terrorism and advocacy in the case of Luigi Mangione?Healthcare, Guns, and ExtremismRecommended Social Chemist EpisodesThe Evolution of Far-Right Terrorism in the 21st Century w/ Bruce Hoffman and Jacob WareThe Contributing Factors Behind January 6 and the Unite the Right Rally w/ Timothy HeaphyThe Weaponization of Disinformation & Its Assault on Democracy w/ Barbara McQuadeThe Emergence of Christian Extremism & The Future of the Republican Party w/ Elizabeth Neumann

On Monday's Mark Levin Show, open borders, radicalized college campuses, and biased media drive cultural decay in the U.S. Unvetted immigration from conflict zones, homegrown terrorism fueled by media misrepresentation, and Marxist indoctrination in universities are key issues. A Marxist allegedly killed two people in D.C. weeks ago and now an Egyptian illegal immigrant allegedly tried to kill people protesting Hamas in Boulder, Colorado, with Molotov cocktails. Biden's policies worsened these problems, and outlets like CNN and the New York Times spread Hamas propaganda, such as false claims of Israeli attacks. Later, colleges and universities have been destroyed by Islamists, Marxists, and foreign influences like Qatar, Iran, and Hamas, with Jews being targeted in a manner reminiscent of the 1930s. These groups, supported by the Democrat Party, media, and courts, are anti-American and aim to collapse the system. Also, President Trump forcefully posted about Iran – “The AUTOPEN should have stopped Iran a long time ago from “enriching.” Under our potential Agreement — WE WILL NOT ALLOW ANY ENRICHMENT OF URANIUM!” He may have posted this as a response to leakers claiming there's a deal that allows Iran to enrich uranium. These leaks might come from the fifth column isolationists or Iranian sympathizers within the administration aiming to undermine Trump.  Afterward, the United States is among the most religiously tolerant nations, with the Constitution ensuring freedoms for all, regardless of beliefs. Faith acts as a moral foundation, moderating behavior and fostering societal civility, even influencing non-believers through surrounding values. Christianity does not seek political control, in contrast to political Islam, which aims for centralized authority over society and government. Without an enlightenment embracing individual liberty, Islam's dominant establishment often supports Islamism, which clashes with Western values.  Importing such ideologies into the U.S. may lead to resistance against assimilation, as seen in parts of Europe and emerging in America.  In Addition, George Washington University's Program on Extremism details how Hamas established early ties with Iran through meetings led by Mousa Abu Marzook, a key Hamas figure, while he was a student in the U.S. in the late 1980s and early 1990s. Marzook, who later became Deputy Chief of Hamas's Political Bureau, orchestrated these connections from American soil. These ties, formalized during a 1991 Tehran meeting, laid the groundwork for Iran's long-term backing of Hamas, including advanced knowledge of Hamas's October 7, 2023, attack on Israel. Can you imagine what's going on today? Finally, Steve Moore calls in and highlights the economy's strong performance in the second quarter, citing a Federal Reserve estimate of 4.6% GDP growth, a significant rebound from the negative 0.2% in the first quarter under Biden. He notes low inflation at under 2.5%, compared to Biden's average of 6%, and emphasizes rising personal income and consumer spending. Moore credits these improvements to the early days of Trump's presidency, countering media predictions of economic collapse. He also stresses the urgency of making Trump's tax cuts permanent to avoid a historic tax increase, which Moore says would cost the average family $2,500 annually. Learn more about your ad choices.

This explosive monologue frames recent violent incidents—including attacks on Jewish and Christian communities—as part of an escalating wave of left-wing terrorism allegedly enabled by the Democratic Party, radical activists, and lax immigration policies. The speaker accuses media, law enforcement, and federal authorities of downplaying or covering up the motives behind these acts, calling for stronger responses including visa revocations, arrests, and political accountability. The episode warns of rising antisemitism and anticipates broader religious persecution unless decisive action is taken.

Salas joined Amna Nawaz to discuss the threats. PBS News is supported by - https://www.pbs.org/newshour/about/funders

Supreme Court Decision on Transgender Military Ban: The Supreme Court allowed President Trump's ban on transgender individuals serving in the military to go into effect with a 6-3 decision. This policy bars individuals with gender dysphoria or those who have undergone gender transition from serving. The decision was seen as a victory for Trump, emphasizing a focus on military readiness and cohesion over social experiments. We emphasize that the military's primary role is to defend the country, not to serve as a platform for social issues. USAID Corruption: The podcast discusses a case of corruption involving a USAID official who steered contracts to a friend in exchange for secret payments. The official, Matthew Zahui, refused to allow auditors access to financial records, which raised suspicions. It was later discovered that he had directed contracts worth hundreds of thousands of dollars to a friend's company, which then made payments to his personal bank account. We highlight the lack of accountability and the need for serious investigations and prosecutions in such cases. Defunding NPR: The podcast supports President Trump's efforts to defund NPR (National Public Radio), arguing that it is a partisan propaganda outlet. It provides examples of NPR's content that the authors find objectionable, such as stories on cannibalism, criticisms of the Declaration of Independence, and coverage of LGBTQ+ issues. We also argue that taxpayer money should not fund media outlets that promote a radical agenda. Please Hit Subscribe to this podcast Right Now.
