Imam Mohammad Tawhidi joins Patrick Bet-David for a deep, unfiltered conversation on Islam vs Islamism, extremism, immigration, the Muslim Brotherhood, Iran's regime, and whether Islam can coexist with the West. A serious, respectful clash of ideas.------
Bondi attack shows marginalisation isn't driving ISIS. Extremism must be stopped from within
The Albanese government is fast-tracking legislative reforms to address hate speech, online extremism and migration settings, after the Bondi Beach terrorist attack. Rejecting calls for a Royal Commission, the government argues urgent executive action is needed. In this podcast, we look at the proposed hate speech laws, expanded visa cancellation powers, debates over antisemitism on university campuses, and the political divide over enforcement versus a public inquiry.
As the reaction to the Bondi terror attacks continues, we travel back in time and head to what was once Australia's most controversial mosque where 15-year-old Muslim school boy turned Islamic State terrorist, Farhad Jabar was allegedly radicalised and given a gun. In part two, we do the rounds with the White Coats, an Islamic charity run out of a Mosque in nearby Granville, responsible for feeding Sydney's homeless and, in a round about way, combatting extremism.

As the world reacts to the attacks on Bondi Beach in Australia, Conservative peer Paul Goodman joins Tim Shipman and James Heale to discuss the failure of successive British governments to properly tackle extremism – especially Islamist extremism – over the past two decades. In the post 'War On Terror' era, there was a reluctance by some to discuss the problem openly as it got tied up in other polarising topics like immigration. Though that reluctance appears to be fading, Paul argues that there is a 'communalist air of voting' in British politics now, and he warns of the dangers that face British politics if fragmentation becomes entrenched in party politics.Plus – Trump is suing the BBC for $5 billion. What's his motivation?Produced by Patrick Gibbons.Become a Spectator subscriber today to access this podcast without adverts.

In this episode of the Chuck ToddCast, Chuck confronts the alarming rise of antisemitism following a mass shooting that targeted Jews in Australia on the first night of Hanukkah, reflecting on how hatred now crosses traditional political lines and sharing his own family’s experiences. He argues that social media has become a primary accelerant—profiting from outrage, trapping people in media silos, and rewarding the most extreme voices—while insisting that free speech does not guarantee unlimited reach. The conversation widens to the urgent need for tech reform, growing support for restricting smartphones for kids, and public backlash to Donald Trump’s hands-off approach to regulating AI. Chuck also examines Trump’s foreign policy actions, economic excuses, and erosion of constitutional norms, warning that the U.S. is drifting toward “competitive authoritarianism.” Despite the dangers of normalization and resignation, the episode closes with a reminder that America still has the capacity to push back and reclaim democratic guardrails. Finally, Chuck hops into the ToddCast Time Machine to revisit the political and cultural impact of The Simpsons, answers listeners’ questions in the “Ask Chuck” segment and recaps the latest in college football.

I sat down with Army veteran and extremism investigator Kristofer Goldsmith for a urgent conversation about the rise of right-wing extremism in America. Goldsmith details his years infiltrating neo-Nazi groups, the growing influence of Christian nationalism, and the dangers emerging inside U.S. institutions—including the military and ICE. It's a great conversation about what it will take to confront fascism and why going on offense is now essential to protecting democracy. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
Synopsis: Meet the fearless reporters who dare to shine a light on dark corners of American politics, tracking extremist groups and debunking disinformation with courage and conviction.Make a tax deductible YEAR END DONATION and become a member go to LauraFlanders.org/donate. This show is made possible by you! Description: Today's guests have paid a price for their reporting on far Right extremists. But if journalists don't do this critical work, then who will? The Trump administration is deprioritizing domestic terrorism to serve a political agenda, scaling back investigations of far-Right extremism while redirecting DHS agents to immigration crackdowns. As programs tracking domestic extremism are dismantled and January 6 rioters are recast as "patriots," journalists find themselves on the frontlines — and their attackers are now people in power. Jordan Green is an investigative reporter for Raw Story whose coverage on far-Right extremism has spanned from Charlottesville to January 6. He is currently working on a book about militant accelerationism. Green also reported on a story we've covered extensively on the show: the attack on two power stations in Moore County, North Carolina. A correspondent for the Texas Observer, investigative journalist Steven Monacelli has been tracking extremism, disinformation, social movements, and the influence of dark money in politics. He received the The Al Neuharth Innovation in Investigative Journalism Award for revealing the identities of far-Right extremists, including government employees. Freelance journalist Amanda Moore embedded with the far Right in 2020 and has faced backlash from far-Right groups for her reporting. Her reporting at present focuses on ICE and Border Control, and her work has appeared in the Nation, Politico, and the Intercept. Join us for this chilling conversation on threats against journalists and the implications for democracy, plus a commentary from Laura.Guests:• Jordan Green: Investigative Journalist, Raw Story• Steven Monacelli: Freelance Investigative Journalist; Correspondent, The Texas Observer; publisher of Protean Magazine, a nonprofit literary magazine; co-founder of Apprentice Creative Space• Amanda Moore: Freelance Investigative Journalist Watch the episode released on YouTube; airing on PBS World Channel 11:30am ET, and on over 300 public stations across the country (check your listings, or search here via zipcode).

America Is Finally Pushing Back Against LGBTQ Extremism by Tim Hatch
Professor Robbie George has a solution for campus extremism and Andrea Picciotti-Bayer has suggestions for family films.
We speak with global extremism expert and author Cynthia Miller-Idriss about the rising tide of political violence, the gendered roots of radicalisation, and why misogyny has become one of the most powerful accelerants of extremism. Drawing on her career studying far-right movements, online recruitment and youth vulnerability, Cynthia unpacks how algorithms shape belief, how violence is becoming culturally normalised, why young men feel unseen, and what this means for democracy. Together they explore how threats, harassment and attacks are driving good people — especially women — out of politics, amplifying the urgency of safeguarding leaders' mental wellbeing. The Better Politics Foundation published a groundbreaking study on the mental health of politicians and its implications for reform. This podcast offers hopeful pathways — from community-based prevention tools to cultural and policy shifts that can disrupt extremism and renew leadership — making this one of our most timely conversations yet.Follow us on LinkedIn (Better Politics Foundation), Instagram (@betterpoliticsfoundation) and our site.

Our conversation today with Felix Neumann traces the shifting landscape of far-left extremism, beginning with the broader global pressures shaping today's political climate. We unpack how certain ideological threads have evolved, splintered, and re-formed, creating a movement that is at once fragmented and unexpectedly resilient. Along the way, we examine the role of foreign influence and funding, and how these forces complicate efforts to distinguish between genuine activism and the kinds of behaviours that cross into extremism.We explore the tactics used by today's far-left extremist actors, as well as their potential to impact systems, institutions, and critical infrastructure. The discussion expands into the programs designed to prevent radicalisation and support disengagement, highlighting what's working, and what remains challenging, in addressing these dynamics. From the spread of conspiracy theories to the emerging trends that may define the next decade, we look ahead to what the future might hold. The result is a wide-ranging, thought-provoking exploration of ideology, vulnerability, and resilience in a rapidly changing world.Felix Neumann has been working at the Konrad Adenauer Foundation in Berlin since 2022. In this role, he deals with all extremist and violent movements in Germany, Europe, and worldwide. His focus is particularly on online-based movements and conspiracy ideologies. He holds a master's degree in War and Conflict Studies from the University of Potsdam.

With the stroke of a pen, Donald Trump has quietly directed the federal government through the odious legal machinery contained in National Security Presidential Memorandum 7, or NSPM-7, to exert surveillance, suppression, and financial control over the American people hidden behind the language of “domestic extremism.” We told you this was coming, it's here, and you're not ready.“Am I therefore become your enemy, because I tell you the truth?” Galatians 4:16 (KJB)On this episode of the Prophecy News Podcast, NSPM-7 significantly expands federal government's domestic surveillance and enforcement reach. It coordinates across multiple agencies (law-enforcement, justice, financial, tax) to target not just violent actors, but entire networks — including funders, donors, organizations. It blurs the line between criminal acts (violence, property destruction, threats) and political belief, association, or funding. That means activism, protest, and dissent risk being treated as potential terrorism. For nonprofits, activists, churches, donors, and civic-society organizations — it introduces chilling uncertainty and risk. Many may self-censor, reduce activity, avoid controversial causes, or even shut down under pressure. For the broader society, it risks normalizing “pre-crime” policing of ideology, association, and funding — rather than punishing only actual criminal actions. The civil war we all thought would come through Obama is actually coming through Donald Trump. Welcome to the program, and buckle it, Christian, it's gonna be a wild ride. Are you NSPM-7 compliant?
Synopsis: Journalists Investigating Far-Right Extremism Face Growing Threats: As the Trump administration scales back investigations into far-right extremist groups, journalists on the front lines are facing increased attacks and threats from powerful figures.Make a tax deductible YEAR END DONATION and become a member go to LauraFlanders.org/donate. This show is made possible by you! Description: Today's guests have paid a price for their reporting on far Right extremists. But if journalists don't do this critical work, then who will? The Trump administration is deprioritizing domestic terrorism to serve a political agenda, scaling back investigations of far-Right extremism while redirecting DHS agents to immigration crackdowns. As programs tracking domestic extremism are dismantled and January 6 rioters are recast as "patriots," journalists find themselves on the frontlines — and their attackers are now people in power. Jordan Green is an investigative reporter for Raw Story whose coverage on far-Right extremism has spanned from Charlottesville to January 6. He is currently working on a book about militant accelerationism. Green also reported on a story we've covered extensively on the show: the attack on two power stations in Moore County, North Carolina. A correspondent for the Texas Observer, investigative journalist Steven Monacelli has been tracking extremism, disinformation, social movements, and the influence of dark money in politics. He received the The Al Neuharth Innovation in Investigative Journalism Award for revealing the identities of far-Right extremists, including government employees. Freelance journalist Amanda Moore embedded with the far Right in 2020 and has faced backlash from far-Right groups for her reporting. Her reporting at present focuses on ICE and Border Control, and her work has appeared in the Nation, Politico, and the Intercept. Join us for this chilling conversation on threats against journalists and the implications for democracy, plus a commentary from Laura.Guests:• Jordan Green: Investigative Journalist, Raw Story• Steven Monacelli: Freelance Investigative Journalist; Correspondent, The Texas Observer; publisher of Protean Magazine, a nonprofit literary magazine; co-founder of Apprentice Creative Space• Amanda Moore: Freelance Investigative Journalist Full Conversation Release: While our weekly shows are edited to time for broadcast on Public TV and community radio, we offer to our members and podcast subscribers the full uncut conversation.

⚖️ Extremism shouldn't be our brand. There's two balanced sides to pentecostalism: intentionality and suddenly. #KingdomSpeak #Podcast #Pentecostalism
In this episode of How to Fix Democracy, host Andrew Keen sits down with Cynthia Miller-Idriss - scholar of extremism, founder of the Polarization and Extremism Research and Innovation Lab (PERIL), and author of Man Up: The New Misogyny and the Rise of Violent Extremism. Together they eplore one of democracy's most fragile foundations: trust. From gender polarization and the rise of the "manosphere", to the declining institutional confidence, to why young men are increasingly vulnerable to online radicalization, Miller-Idriss explains how mistrust is reshaping politics, culture, and everyday relationships. She also discussed what might work to rebuild trust - from community level engagement to national service models - and why belonging, meaning and purpose might be the most powerful antidotes to extremism. A wide-ranging, urgent conversation about loneliness, democracy and whether America can restore trust before it is too late. Miller-Idriss offers a note of cautios optimism: most people, she argues, don't actually want to live this way.
2025-11-30 | DAILY UPDATES #069 | The civil war has broken out in Russia – but not the one you perhaps imagined. It's a weird civil war between objectionable characters – one happening inside the pro-war camp. Z-Patriots and propagandists are turning on each other.The Z-patriots, “turbo-patriots,” Telegram war-bloggers and Kremlin talking heads who cheered on the invasion… are now denouncing, arresting and in some cases literally killing each other. Foreign-agent lists. “Terrorist” labels. Extremism charges. Car bombs, gunshots on occupied territory, and Chechen generals promising that troublesome bloggers will be “destroyed legally”. They also hint at illegal methods. But is ‘law' a redundant concept in Russia, in any case – where strength, status, brutality and connections define everything. This isn't dissent versus the regime. This is the regime's own shock-troops turning their knives inward – and the minions of the security state happily twisting the blade.

Andrew Gold sits down with Charles Asher Small, one of the world's leading experts on extremism, to unpack a warning 50 years in the making. According to Small, the ideological project launched by the Muslim Brotherhood nearly a century ago is now at its midpoint—and the next 50 years could determine the fate of Western democracy itself.

He outlines the ideological alliance he calls the “Red-Green” coalition—a convergence between radical left movements seeking to dismantle Western power structures and Islamist groups pursuing their own anti-democratic aims. We examine: - How countries like Jordan and the UAE have banned the Muslim Brotherhood - Whether the West is “sleeping through a revolution” - The UK's staggering 40,000 individuals on its jihadist watchlist - The moral crisis facing Western leadership - The real-world implications for women's rights, LGBTQ+ rights, religious minorities, and democratic freedoms - And the urgent question many are afraid to ask: Is a certain strain of political Islam fundamentally incompatible with Western liberal values? Despite the stark warnings, Small is clear: the vast majority of Muslims are decent, peaceful people who simply want to live normal lives. The danger, he argues, lies in extremist ideologies—not ordinary believers. This is a gripping, high-stakes conversation about geopolitics, ideology, security, and the future of the free world. As Small puts it: “We are sleeping through the revolution. It is time for us to wake up.” #HereticsPodcast #islamism #WesternValuesUnderThreat Join the 30k heretics on my mailing list: https://andrewgoldheretics.com Check out my new documentary channel: https://youtube.com/@andrewgoldinvestigates Andrew on X: https://twitter.com/andrewgold_ok Insta: https://www.instagram.com/andrewgold_ok Heretics YouTube channel: https://www.youtube.com/@andrewgoldheretics #GenderDebate #TransDiscussion #HereticsPodcast Chapters: 0:00 Charles Asher Small Highlights 1:10 How the Muslim Brotherhood is infiltrating the West 7:54 Are some religions more violent than others? 19:02 Should refugees be tested on their views? 19:55 What we can learn from the UAE to keep Islamic extremism under control 25:20 How the UK is being taken through democratic means 28:42 Can we distinguish between extreme Islamism and Islam 39:20 Is the radical right being funded by Qatar? 46:30 What the West needs to do to fight back Learn more about your ad choices.

Jillian Michaels addresses the pressing issue of cowardice in American politics, arguing that the real problem isn't extremism but the lack of courage to confront it. She discusses how both Democrats and Republicans avoid holding their own extremists accountable, resulting in a more mainstream presence of fringe ideologies. Jillian also calls for responsible leadership, emphasizing the need to marginalize actual hatred and promote a shared standard of decency and accountability.
Scott Jennings is BACK on Chicks on the Right to drop truth bombs and discuss his new book, “Revolution of Common Sense” (out Nov 18)! In this episode, Scott breaks down the state of American politics, including the rare value of common sense, the impact of shutdowns, healthcare chaos, and how young voters are shaping the future. He tackles the rise of extremism, the current state of the Democratic Party, and why authenticity in media is more important than ever. We also dive into heated topics like Nick Fuentes and Groypers, the power of free speech versus endorsing extremism, and how conservatives can navigate a changing political landscape. Whether you're worried about socialism creeping into Gen Z, curious about the next election, or just want some no-nonsense political commentary, this episode has it all.
In this bonus episode, Professor Nicholas Giordano joins The American Radicals Podcast hosted by FBI whistleblower Steve Friend for a powerful conversation on the rise of bureaucratic power in America. Professor Giordano breaks down how federal agencies have expanded far beyond their constitutional limits, how Congress routinely fails to provide real oversight, and how the deep state uses vague laws and political theater to protect itself. The discussion exposes the consequences of unchecked federal law enforcement, the dangers of labeling ordinary citizens as threats, and the urgent need to reform the system with real accountability, transparency, and the power of the purse. Episode Highlights How federal agencies grew into an unaccountable power center that the founding fathers warned us about. Why Congress refuses to challenge abusive agencies and how the Patriot Act opened the door to mass surveillance. What real reform looks like, including sunsetting agencies, limiting authority, and ending qualified immunity for federal agents.
On Tuesday's Mark Levin Show, the Democratic Party is being internally devoured by Marxism and Islamism, ideologies foreign to America's founding principles. These forces, power-hungry and seeking centralized control, mask their hatred for the country as righteousness, liberation, equality, and affordability, while spreading rapidly and replacing the party's base and leadership. In response, a fascistic reaction emerges on the radical right by grifters like podcasters and influencers who gain fame and wealth promoting it. Both Marxists and fascists seek to destroy American institutions—the former to replace them, the latter claiming they fail—leading to dwindling support for the Declaration, Constitution, and founders. The Republican Party resists this fascistic right, albeit insufficiently, whereas the Democratic Party, having unleashed and failed to control these forces, is now becoming the Marxist left. Also, Rep Mike Lawler calls in and explains that the Democrat government shutdown was idiotic, aimed at fighting Trump and appeasing their far-left base through political leverage rather than benefiting Americans or addressing healthcare. He argues that Obamacare's affordability relies solely on federal subsidies like enhanced ACA tax credits, which he is open to extending for one year to enable fundamental fixes, as the program has driven up costs over 15 years, destroyed the system through ineffective consolidation, and failed to achieve economies of scale. Afterward, UC Berkeley student radicals from groups including Students Organizing for Liberation, Jewish Voice for Peace, and Young Democratic Socialists of America organized protests against a Turning Point event. These protesters are anti-Israel, anti-US radicals linked to Soros operations and leftist figures like Bernie Sanders and AOC, who seek to overthrow the country rather than engage in civil debate. Finally, we thank all who served in the military, although thanks can never be enough. Veterans are a unique and shrinking breed who deserve appreciation for their sacrifices, with the country owing them a great debt. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices

Kissel expresses little surprise regarding the BBC scandal, viewing the deliberate distortion of the President's video remarks as appalling and emblematic of an "embedded bias" against conservatives that is deep and unfixable. 1030-1045 The Rise of the AfD and the Threat to German Democracy. Judy Dempsey discusses the rise of the far-right Alternative for Germany (AfD) party, noting it is infiltrating German culture, education, and town halls, predominantly in the East. She warns that the AfD poses a danger to German democracy and the rule of law. The future hinges on whether established parties can isolate the AfD or if the Constitutional Court will intervene to outlaw the party. Dempsey also notes that the BBC scandal involves the highly scrutinized domestic service, distinct from the generally "exemplary" BBC World Service. 1045-1100 The Rise of the AfD and the Threat to German Democracy.

THIRD HOUR 1100-1115 Rare Earths, Global Conflicts, and Reimagining Democracy. Gregory Copley analyzes China's rare earth monopoly, noting it was achieved through low pricing and unsafe practices but is now eroding as global suppliers ramp up production. He reviews current global conflicts, viewing the deployment of the USS Gerald R. Ford battle group near Venezuela as a test of brinkmanship, and citing Kyiv's admission of losses in Ukraine. Copley also argues that democracy is "dead," advocating for a return to defining the spirit of a social contract rather than relying on mutable laws. 1115-1130 Rare Earths, Global Conflicts, and Reimagining Democracy.

FOURTH HOUR 12-1215 Conservative Politics and Extremism; The Structural Problems of the BBC. Joseph Sternberg argues that mainstream conservatives must accommodate legitimate right-wing concerns (like immigration) to squeeze out extremists, referencing the German CDU/CSU's successful historical tactic against neo-Nazis. He analyzes the widespread BBC scandal, noting its huge cultural influence in the UK, where it is funded by a mandatory license fee. The deliberate editing of the US President's remarks and allegations of tendentious coverage of the Israel/Gaza war point to a deep, structural problem within the organization. 1215-1230 Conservative Politics and Extremism; The Structural Problems of the BBC.

Ivana Stradner warns that the UN cybercrime treaty, drafted by Russia and supported by China, undermines global human rights and free speech. She argues the treaty is mere "window dressing" enabling authoritarian regimes to pursue digital sovereignty—like Russia's "fake news" laws or China's "golden shield" project—to censor dissent. Stradner suggests that allowing Russia and China to regulate cyberspace is comparable to trusting the arsonist to put out the fire, urging the United States not to ratify the treaty. 1245-100 AM The Modern Marine Corps: MEUs, Amphibious Ship Shortages, and the Role in East Asia. Colonel Grant Newsham discusses the Marine Corps, celebrating its 250th birthday and historic legacy at Belleau Wood. Newsham describes the Marine Expeditionary Unit (MEU) as a flexible force of about 2,000 Marines aboard amphibious ships, capable of missions from humanitarian aid to combat. A critical challenge is the Navy's low prioritization of amphibious ships, leading to a deployment shortage. In East Asia, Marines are expected to seize key terrain and use long-range precision weapons to control maritime territory, though prioritizing missile units has reduced overall mission versatility.

Extremism lost big in Pennsylvania last week, from ICE-loving sheriffs to the State Supreme Court to school boards across the commonwealth. And it didn't happen because of pundits on cable news or DC-based strategists. It happened because regular Pennsylvanians stepped up, ran for office, and talked to their neighbors and friends about what was on the line.This week on the pod, we're joined by Sherry Luce, our PA Program Director, and Stacy Kunkel, our PA Deputy Program Director. They shared some inspiring stories from the ground, like a couple of moms who decided to set up their own tripod to stream their local school board meetings to show their neighbors how extremist their school board had become. And last Tuesday night, their efforts paid off! They won five seats and their school board is now full of common sense candidates who care more about kids than culture wars.Sherry and Stacy are also our favorite “self-care resisters,” as LaFonda puts it. But their conversation shows that there's no one way to balance work and self-care. No matter what, community is at the heart of it all.We hope you enjoy today's episode and are as inspired as we were by the amazing work being done in Pennsylvania!For a transcript of this episode, please email comms@redwine.blue.
