In this podcast Charlie reviews the six categories of people in the United States insofar as they are actors in the drama between democracy and authoritarianism, highlighting where it might be possible to change the momentum. He then discusses the role of "bystanders" and the psychology of bystanders, with a plea to convert bystanders to more active participants.

See why Jimmy Kimmel's back on air while some networks still pass, what the FCC chatter really meant, and how Trump's U.N. appearance (yes, the teleprompter + escalator moments) set the room buzzing.Shift to the big medical-policy headline: a planned FDA label change so doctors can use leucovorin for some children on the autism spectrum. You'll hear a detailed, historical perspective from author Shaz Khan (The Ultimate Vaccine Timeline)—and you'll get clear reminders to consult your own doctor and treat this as information, not medical advice.

John discusses the many screwball, insane, maniacal decisions coming from the Oval Office. The continuing effort by MAGA to make Charlie Kirk a glorified hero and worshipped saint. Donald Trump's $15Billion lawsuit against the New York Times was thrown out of court for being, among other things, too long at 85 pages and full of tedious and irrelevant language. Trump pushing out US Attorney Erik Siebert for not inventing a crime to charge New York Attorney General Laticia James with. The continued fall out over Trump exercising his censorship rights and pushing out Jimmy Kimmel. And then of course, Trump trying to desperately distract from the Epstein files. Next, he talks with Producer Chris Hauselt about his strange MAGA run-in at the dog park. Then winding it up - Chris packaged up a special treat!

With his attacks on late-night comedians, Trump is practicing the "cancel culture" he pledged to eliminate. Harold Meyerson comments.Also: Democrats have been winning big victories in special elections in diverse places across the country. John Nichols comments.Plus: Why fascists fear teachers - starting in L.A. Randi Weingarten, president of the AFT, explains - her new book is "Why Fascists Fear Teachers."

BULLETIN, SEASON 4 EPISODE 14, COUNTDOWN WITH KEITH OLBERMANN BULLETIN (2:55): ABC announced late this afternoon that it had taken "Jimmy Kimmel Live!" off the network's air effective immediately, because Kimmel had the nerve to tell the truth about how Trump and the MAGA terrorists have exploited the indefensible assassination of Charlie Kirk, how they have tried to blame the left without evidence and with increasing evidence that this was an instance of a man who feared Kirk was a direct threat to a person he loved, and how they have ruthlessly tried to suppress all public comment that contradicts their narrative, or the nonsensical whitewashing of Kirk's violent, ultra-right platform that once included him publicly calling for the execution of President Biden. “We hit some new lows over the weekend with the MAGA gang desperately trying to characterize this kid who murdered Charlie Kirk as anything other than one of them and doing everything they can to score political points from it,” Kimmel said Monday. By this afternoon FCC chairman Brendan Carr dipped into the Goebbels playbook and threatened ABC's station licenses if it did not take Kimmel off the air, and the Nexstar stations that own many ABC affiliates, said they would not broadcast any more of Kimmel's shows. At that point ABC simply said the show was off the air "for the foreseeable future." Fascism can truly overtake this country's democracy only with the collaboration of Disney and ABC and people they run them - desperate people like Bob Iger, who reclaimed the chairmanship of the company and will do anything he can to maintain it - including selling this country out to the fascists. I'll also discuss why Kimmel has no recourse against the action and will most likely not appear again, and why ABC's only contractual obligation to him is to pay him the remaining year of his salary. This part of it I've personally been through - though under far less dire circumstances. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

John discusses the life of legendary actor and director Robert Redford who passed away at the age of 89. He also talks about FBI Director Kash Patel who clashed with the Senate Judiciary Committee, snapping and smirking at Senate Democrats who questioned his leadership and challenged him on the agency's failures. He plays many clips from the heated exchanges. Then, John interviews Garnet Henderson who is an investigative reporter specializing in abortion access, anti-rights disinformation, and other intersections of health, policy, and culture. They talk about a new lawsuit in Texas where a woman claims her boyfriend (a US Marine) got her pregnant and then put 10 abortion pills in her hot chocolate when she refused to have an abortion. Next, he speaks with Matthew Boedy who is a professor in the English department at the University of North Georgia. Targeted by Turning Point USA in 2016 and listed on its infamous “professor watchlist,” Boedy has emerged as one of the foremost experts on Turning Point USA and its founder and CEO Charlie Kirk, exposing its role in Christian nationalism and the threat to democracy it poses. They talk about John's new book Separation of Church and Hate: A Sane Person's Guide to Taking Back the Bible from Fundamentalists, Fascists, and Flock-Fleecing Frauds and Matthew's new book "The Seven Mountains Mandate: Exposing the Dangerous Plan to Christianize America and Destroy Democracy". Then finally, John welcomes back Comedy Daddy Keith Price to chat with the Evil Army of the Night about Kash Patel, Donald Trump, and Robert Redford.

The New Discourses Podcast with James Lindsay, Ep. 175 Who is Aleksandr Dugin, and why does anyone care about him? This turns out to be an increasingly important question as Dugin's crackpot Fascist philosophy increasingly informs the "New Right" (Woke Right) in America. Dugin is a radical Russian philosopher who has sometimes been referred to as "Putin's philosopher" or "Putin's brain," though it is unclear how invested in his thinking Russian leader Vladimir Putin actually is. In 1997, Dugin wrote a short but unambiguously Fascist essay called "Fascism, Borderless and Red" (https://www.stephenhicks.org/wp-content/uploads/2022/03/DuginA-Fascism-Borderless-Red.pdf) to call for a new Fascist movement in Russia modeled directly off not only Mussolini (https://newdiscourses.com/2024/01/fascism-idolatry-of-the-state/) but off of Hitler's National Socialism (https://newdiscourses.com/2025/06/the-nazi-experiment-vol-1-the-nazi-racial-worldview/) in Germany. In this episode of the New Discourses Podcast, host James Lindsay reads through this short essay to introduce you to "Duginism." Join him to get informed. Latest from New Discourses Press!

The guest host for today's show is Brad Bannon. Brad runs Bannon Communications Research, a polling, message development and media firm which helps labor unions, progressive issue groups and Democratic candidates win public affairs and political campaigns. His show, 'Deadline D.C. with Brad Bannon,' airs every Monday from 3-4pm ET. Brad is first joined by Randi Weingarten, President of the American Federation of Teachers (AFT). They discuss her brand new book, "Why Fascists Fear Teachers. Public Education and the Future of Democracy."  The book's Publisher, Penguin House, describes it as "A rousing defense of public education as the cornerstone of American democracy, by the woman attacked by the far right as “the most dangerous person in the world” Attacks on schools and teachers have long been a hallmark of fascist regimes: Throughout history, as many dictators rose to power they began banning books and controlling curriculum. Fascists fear teachers because teachers foster an educated and empowered population that can see past propaganda and scare tactics. Fascists fear teachers because they teach young people how to think for themselves. Drawing on history, stories from teachers on the front lines, and decades of experience with America's public schools, Weingarten argues that teaching students to think critically is the key to defeating would-be dictators. She encourages teachers to continue focusing on their vital mission to help young people thrive." The book is available for purchase here: https://sites.prh.com/whyfascistsfearteachers During the second half of the show, Brad is joined by Sara Haghdoosti and she is the Executive Director of Win Without War, a diverse network of activists and organizations working towards a progressive U.S. foreign policy. She details the dangers of militarizing local law enforcement, and what it means for everyday people that the President is willing to position troops in American cities to enforce his own agenda (with Memphis, TN just the latest). Based just outside of Chicago, Sara also speaks to what the local community is experiencing right now as Trump targets the city. Sara also talks about her organization's ‘Know Your Rights Campaign' for military service members that do not want to follow unlawful orders from the Trump administration: https://winwithoutwar.org/win-without-war-launches-notwhatyousignedupfor-org-for-members-of-the-military-during-trumps-authoritarian-crackdown/  Finally, Brad and Sara talk foreign policy, including the wars in Ukraine and Gaza, as well as the Trump administration's controversial airstrike on a Venezuelan boat that Trump claims contained drug smugglers transporting fentanyl. Randi Weingarten is president of the 1.8 million-member AFT, which represents teachers; paraprofessionals and school-related personnel; higher education faculty and staff; nurses and other healthcare professionals; local, state and federal government employees; and early childhood educators.

De Verenigde Staten raakten deze week nog verder verdeeld. Afgelopen woensdag werd de conservatieve activist Charlie Kirk doodgeschoten. Door de moord op Kirk wordt de kloof in de Amerikaanse maatschappij alleen maar groter.

Charlie Kirk shaped modern conservatism and reached youth in ways no one else could—and that's precisely what made him so dangerous to the Left.   The trailblazing 31-year-old activist and commentator who founded Turning Point USA was regularly smeared as a “fascist,” a “Nazi,” and a “threat to democracy” by the Left. It was only a matter of time until a crazed person put those words into action. On today's episode of “Victor Davis Hanson: In His Own Words,” Hanson pays tribute to Kirk and explains how his death is more than just a personal loss; it signals a dangerous new era where political violence is becoming normalized. “ He connected with people. He had a podcast. He was an extemporaneous speaker. He could ad lib. He wrote columns. He was fearless. He was—he registered voters. He might have been more responsible for winning key states than any other political activists in the 2024 election. I don't think anybody in our generation—I'm speaking my generation—could have done what he did. “ We are legitimizing political violence. If you call someone day after day after day, "white, white, white, white"; "racist, racist, racist"; "fascist, fascist, fascist"; "Nazi, Nazi, Nazi"—we hear that from Joy Reid. We see it on "The View." We see it on MSNBC. Even just seconds after Charlie died, we had Matthew Dowd go on and basically said that he got what he deserved because he was an extremist, etc., and he and you "live by the sword, die by the sword" sort of argument he used.”

War Room Accused Assassin Tyler Robinson Claimed Charlie Kirk “Full Of Hate,” Wrote Leftist Anti-Fascist Messages on Bullets As POTUS Pushes for Death Penalty

On Shifting Culture, we often ask: what does it mean to follow Jesus in the complexity of our world? In this episode, John Fugelsang helps us press into that question with clarity and urgency. John is a comedian, actor, and political commentator shaped by the unlikely pairing of parents who were once a nun and a Franciscan brother. His new book, Separation of Church and Hate, takes an unflinching look at how fundamentalism and nationalism have twisted Christianity into a pursuit of power. With sharp wit and thoughtful insight, John contrasts that distortion with the radical humility and compassion of Jesus - the one who welcomed the stranger, lifted up women, broke cycles of violence, and modeled a way beyond empire. This conversation is provocative and grounding, inviting us to imagine how the way of Jesus might still break the cycles of fear and hate in our time.John Fugelsang has been killed on CSI, picketed by Westboro Baptist Church, and hosts the acclaimed series "Tell Me Everything" on SiriusXM #127. He's been a regular on CNN, MSNBC & FOX News, appears in Coyote Ugly, hosted America's Funniest Home Videos once got George Harrison to give his final performance on VH1. He's the child of an ex-nun and an ex-Franciscan brother, and his book SEPARATION OF CHURCH AND HATE: A Sane Person's Guide to Taking Back the Bible from Fundamentalists, Fascists and Flock Fleecing Frauds releases from Simon & Schuster in Summer 2025.John's Book:Separation of Church and HateJohn's Recommendation:SupermanSubscribe to Our Substack: Shifting CultureConnect with Joshua: jjohnson@allnations.usGo to www.shiftingculturepodcast.com to interact and donate.

In this discussion we talk with Professor Corinna Mullin who is a member of the Anti-Imperialist Scholars Collective.  Corinna Mullin is an anti-imperialist academic who teaches political science and economics. Her research examines the historical legacies of colonialism and the role of capitalist expansion and imperialist imbrications in producing peripheral state “security dependency,” with a focus on unequal exchange, super-exploitation, resource extraction, and other forms of surplus value drain/transfer as well as resistance. Corinna has also researched and published academic works on border imperialism, struggles around the colonial-capitalist university, fascism, multipolarity, and national liberation, with a focus on the Maghreb, West Asia, and Turtle Island. Corinna was a member of the Steering Committee for the International Peoples' Tribunal on U.S. Imperialism and organizes with CUNY for Palestine and Labor for Palestine. She serves on the Steering Committee of the Professional Staff Congress (PSC)-CUNY's International Committee and is a member of the Delegate Assembly. Full bio from AISC. In this discussion we primarily discuss her piece, Zionism, Imperialism, and the Struggle Against Global Fascism: Palestine as the ‘Hornet's Nest' of US Empire from the Anti-Imperialist Scholars Collective blog The Pen Is My Machete  And a little bit on her piece The ‘War on Terror' as Primitive Accumulation in Tunisia: US-Led Imperialism and the Post-2010-2011 Revolt/Security Conjuncture from Middle East Critique  Also I say more about this in the episode, but Dr. Mullin was fired from CUNY as a result of her stance and organizing with respect to Palestine. We will include a statement from AISC on this and a Statement in Solidarity with CUNY Faculty and Students Facing McCarthyite Retaliation for Palestine Solidarity which we have signed.  There are also a number of other calls to action for faculty and students at CUNY that we will include in the show description. Corinna talks about those at the end of the episode and we strongly encourage folks to support those calls to action it only takes a minute of your time. In this discussion Dr. Mullin talks a little bit about Dr. Ali Kadri's The Accumulation of Waste: A Political Economy of Systemic Destruction and it just so happens that we have a study group on that exact book starting on October 1st, it's available to everyone who supports the show, whether through patreon, BuyMeACoffee or as a YouTube member of the show.

Calls to Action:  "Hadeeqa Arzoo Malik is being made an example of for the sake of setting the tone across the nation at public universities, as they seek further control over the student movement for Palestine. City College President Vincent Boudreau has already denied her appeal for a drop to the charges, without even an acknowledgement to the 2,000+ calls and emails from the community that demanded her reinstatement. Now, it is time to escalate both our tactics against CUNY and whom we pressure— Take it to the Board of Trustees. Your rage is needed to make it loud and clear that CUNY's repression will not go uninterrupted.  CALL CUNY STUDENT AFFAIRS: 646-664-8800 EMAIL THE BOT: https://tinyurl.com/Defendhadeeqaarzoo" Free Tarek Bazrouk! Tarek is a 20-year-old Palestinian from NYC, unjustly convicted of federal charges stemming from his participation in protests against the genocide in Gaza. "Demand Immediate Reinstatement of Terminated Adjunct Faculty and Defend Academic Freedom Send a letter to Brooklyn College President Michelle Anderson, CUNY Chancellor Félix Matos Rodríguez, and CUNY Board Chairperson William Thompson urging them to reinstate the fired adjunct faculty and protect the rights of CUNY students and workers who stand in solidarity with Palestine.

https://thecommunists.org/2025/08/23/news/glasgow-protests-fascist-antifascist-farce/ Workers are being forced into culture wars paradigms to keep them busy fighting amongst themselves. Police escort a motley crew assembled behind a Ukip banner demanding ‘Mass deportations now'. The hard truth is that both the leaders of the overtly racist right-wing organisations in Britain and the leaders of the supposedly ‘antiracist' and ‘revolutionary' Trotskyite left are state provocateurs, working in tandem to keep workers' energies misdirected, their ranks divided and their struggles impotent.

Donald Trump has done it again, this time using Truth Social to all but declare war on Chicago, threatening to send in troops as if it were a hostile nation and not, you know, an American city. How exactly have we gotten to this point? Meanwhile, the public seems less than thrilled with their “strongman.” At the U.S. Open, Trump was greeted not with cheers but with a sea of boos. And yet, news outlets were conveniently asked not to show it. Because nothing says “popular leader” quite like silencing dissent and pretending the jeers don't exist. We'll break it all down: Trump's latest fascist move, the backlash he's facing, and why the cover-ups are just as damning as the policies themselves. This episode is brought to you by ZBiotics.

Last week Fox News hosts rejoiced over the federal takeover of Washington D.C., praised Trump for an excessively long cabinet meeting and demonized all transgender people after another tragic mass shooting at a Catholic Church in Minneapolis, Minnesota.When President Donald J. Trump declared that he would send National Guard troops into Chicago the network celebrated the idea of U.S. military personnel fighting crime in the third largest city in the country. The word "‘Chicago' appeared 132 times in the transcripts last week. But according U.S. News & World Report Chicago did not even make its list of the top 25 most dangerous cities in the United States for 2025-2026 .Other important topics for the Murdoch owned media empire included Cracker Barrel's decision to go back to its original logo, Gavin Newsom's social media posts, a recent Democratic National Committee summer meeting and the ICE arrest of Kilmar Abrego Garcia an undocumented immigrant who has been treated like a pawn in Trump's brutal crackdown on illegal immigration.

Air Date 9/1/2025 The way people consume almost every variety of media, entertainment, and art is different now than it was only 10-15 years ago. That means that the way protest music, revolutionary art, and even mass market productions and performances are going to be different, feel different, and likely find you in different ways than in the past.

Jessica is joined by lawyer, journalist, and Substacker Aaron Parnas to talk through some alarmingly authoritarian news stories.

It's a classic News Day Tuesday on Majority Report On Today's show: Trump is attempting to fire Federal Reserve Govenor Lisa Cook via tweet, accusing her of mortgage fraud yet no charges have been filed. This is just the continuation of his crusade to influence interest rate cuts. As the Pentagon reports that preparation for a National Guard invasion of Chicago started months ago, Illinois governor JB Pritzker fires back and points out that 13 of the 20 cities with the highest homicide rates and 8 out of 10 states with the highest crime rates are red states. Missouri GOP Representative Mark Alford is scorched at a town hall by a farmer, In the Fun Half: Graham Platner is peppered with horrible questions on CNN and answers them all perfectly. Ben Shapiro lies about how much he can bench press in a pathetic attempt to shame Zohran Mamdani. Wesley Bell desperately attempts to justify receiving millions from AIPAC and Crypto. Hakeem Jeffries writes a strongly worded letter in another feckless display. All that and more. The Congress switchboard number is (202) 224-3121. You can use this number to connect with either the U.S. Senate or the House of Representatives.
