PLUS: Sterling Thrill's Friday check-in & Matt Rinker pivots from an ATL campaign to a State House raceShortly before the show, a federal judge shut down the DOJ's push for sensitive Georgia voter data, adding another chapter to the soap opera that is and has been unfolding under Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger's tenure. Meanwhile, Ron popped in to former state Sen. Jason Estevez campaign kickoff Thursday night as his run for governor began before a packed crowd and with some legislative allies joining him to make the case that he's best-equipped to win the governor's desk in 2026. Hear what Esteves and surrogates were saying to make that case and note the jabs coming at former Atlanta mayor Keisha Lance Bottoms & former Lt. Governor Geoff Duncan. Because it's Friday, comedian and political satirist Sterling Thrill joined in to unpack the week's chaos— and find the humor wherever it was. Good news: he and Ron found some funny!But wait - there's more!Forget the dramatic Jack Smith testimony - how about Michael Fanone staring down MAGA instigator Ivan Raiklin - whom Rep. Jim Jordan allowed to sit directly behind Fanone in the first place? Hear Fanone's account of those near-blow moments. Checking in on Sen. Jon Ossoff's critical re-election year, he's seen doing what's needed for constituents by speaking up for tiny Social Circle's municipal pleas for a planned ICE detention facility to not be jammed into their community. As we'd discussed with their city manager before, the community's resources would be overwhelmed. Ossoff is also assailing DHS / ICE for failing to pay medical bills since last fall, leaving some third party providers to wait until late April, and with some denying medical care for those being detained. Ron checks in with Matt Rinker, pivoting from an Atlanta city council bid to running for Tanya Miller's House seat while she focuses on her run for Attorney General. On a last look at headlines of the day:Fulton DA's office opts not to prosecute Patti DurandTune in to catch the Ron Show weekdays from 4-6pm Eastern time on Georgia NOW!

The world's leading philosophers and psychologists were based in Germany and Austria during the rise of Hitler. They studied the darkest chapter of human history while trying to make sense of it and survive it themselves. Their teachings are an urgent alarm for us today: fascists seek endless conflict through domination, and it will never be enough. Drawing on George Orwell's analysis of Hitler, we see that while democracy offers the radical concept of "having a good time," fascism preys on a neurotic, broken need for "struggle, danger, and death." It is an addiction to conflict, often first learned in the childhood home, according to Erich Fromm, that views empathy not as a virtue, but as a target.  Walter Benjamin, before losing his own life to suicide to avoid the concentration camps, pointed out that fascists seek pleasure in their own demise. It is the fleeting, hollow glee of a bully kicking over a sandcastle because he doesn't know how to build one. Joy is how we win. The hate-fueled fascist high is a non-renewable resource. It requires a constant supply of new enemies to sustain a house of cards built on lawlessness and corruption. True joy, born of community, love, and creation, is sustainable energy, even in the unlikeliest of places, as our heroes who came before us also showed us. Stay safe. Stay defiant. And find some joy today: it's the best revenge.

Our demented, orange President may be the worst person at Davos. Also, at the party for rich oligarchs, former VP Al Gore heckled swamp creature Howard Lutnick. GOP legislator Thomas Massie slammed Trump for selling Venezuelan oil and pocketing the profits. Shitler’s DOJ was blocked from searching the devices of a WAPO reporter. A doctor presented evidence Trump is messed up medically. Fascist face Elon Musk feuded with a budget airline mogul. Moron James Comer complained no GOP loads were not defending AG Bondi from a contempt charge. Repub load Rick Green claimed January 6th wasn’t an insurrection.

What happens when religion is used to divide rather than unite?  In this episode of The Greatness Machine, Darius Mirshahzadeh talks with comedian, actor, and political commentator John Fugelsang about his book “Separation of Church and Hate”. John shares how his progressive Catholic upbringing shaped his voice as a comedian and commentator and explores how fundamentalist movements have often twisted Christianity for power, far from the teachings of Jesus. From historical examples to modern politics, he shows how faith can be weaponized and how true Christ-followers stand up for justice and compassion. This episode also dives into navigating polarized opinions and understanding the real message of faith to think critically and lead with integrity. In this episode, Darius and John will discuss: (00:00) Introduction and Background of John Fugelsang (02:52) Exploring the Separation of Church and Hate (05:44) The Evolution of Christianity and Political Influence (08:20) Debating Religious Beliefs and the Role of AI (11:10) The Impact of Media on Religious Narratives (13:57) The Importance of Love and Unity in Leadership (16:53) The Growing Spiritual Movement and Its Implications (19:34) The Role of Humor and Comedy in Addressing Serious Issues (22:33) Final Thoughts and the Path Forward John Fugelsang is an American actor, comedian, writer, television host, and political commentator known for his sharp wit and outspoken views on politics, religion, and culture. Born on September 3, 1969, on Long Island, New York, he is the son of a former Catholic nun and a former Franciscan friar. John studied film and television at NYU's Tisch School of the Arts and began a diverse career in entertainment that includes television, stand‑up comedy, and stage performances. He has appeared in films and TV shows such as “Coyote Ugly” and “America's Funniest Home Videos,” and he's been featured on major news networks including CNN, MSNBC, and Fox News.

Recorded live at Stubb's in Austin, Texas Take host Jeremy Wallace sits down with Beto O'Rourke for a conversation about why he chose not to run for office this cycle and what he's doing instead. O'Rourke talks about his work with Powered by People, efforts to register and turn out new voters across Texas, and why down-ballot races matter as much as marquee contests. The discussion also touches on Democratic primary dynamics where O'Rourke weighs in on the race between Jasmine Crockett and James Talarico, voter suppression, the stakes of the 2026 midterms, and the unexpected parallels between grassroots politics and punk rock, drawing on O'Rourke's time as a musician.

2026-01-19 | UPDATES #107 | Doing the Devil's Work: Stephen Miller and America's “Law of the Jungle” Agenda. The 21st century has somehow become entangled with the 20th – an echo of fascistic philosophy, predatory empires and a breakdown in global security and trust, that led to the horrors of the second world war. We can witness the 21st century descending into behaviours that almost destroyed civilisation a century ago, and language that echoes that of the side that lost. Stephen Miller is the starkest example of this, but not the only one. Take his appearance on prime-time TV for instance, a senior White House aide arguing, that a country doesn't deserve its territory unless it can physically hold it. Not by treaty. Not by law. Not by self-determination. By brute force. By “territorial control.” Survival of the fittest and nastiest. The target isn't some distant adversary. It's Denmark. A NATO ally. Over Greenland. This is not a gaffe. It's a doctrine. And the face of it right now is Stephen Miller, and quite possibly the architect, from the American side. On Friday night, Stephen Miller went on Fox News and offered what can only be described as a pseudo-legal justification for acquisition-by-bullying. He dismissed Denmark like it was tenant in default, that must be evicted, not as an ally. ----------SUPPORT THE CHANNEL:https://www.buymeacoffee.com/siliconcurtainhttps://www.patreon.com/siliconcurtain----------SOURCES: Reuters (Jan 18, 2026): Dutch FM calls Greenland tariff threat “blackmail” AP (Jan 17, 2026): Trump tariff announcement timeline and “Complete and Total purchase” language The Guardian (Jan 17, 2026): tariff escalation reporting The Guardian (Jan 17, 2026): Keir Starmer statement “completely wrong” Le Monde (Jan 18, 2026): Miller's “tiny country” framing and “polar competition” rationale The Daily Beast (Jan 17-18, 2026): Miller's Hannity remarks and “territorial control” formulationCNN transcript (Jan 5, 2026): “governed by strength… force… power” quoteAP (Jan 2026): “In his own words” roundup of Miller's statements and worldview framing The Atlantic (Jan 2026): reporting on Miller's operational control and immigration enforcement targets UN legal materials on Article 2(4) and use-of-force principles Helsinki Final Act / territorial integrity principle (CSCE)----------SILICON CURTAIN LIVE EVENTS - FUNDRAISER CAMPAIGN Events in 2025 - Advocacy for a Ukrainian victory with Silicon Curtainhttps://buymeacoffee.com/siliconcurtain/extrasOur events of the first half of the year in Lviv, Kyiv and Odesa were a huge success.

In this episode of Exploring A Course in Miracles, Emily & Robert Perry sit down with New York Times bestselling author and Sirius XM host John Fugelsang to explore his insightful new book, Separation of Church and Hate: A Sane Person's Guide to Taking Back the Bible from Fundamentalists, Fascists, and Flock-Fleecing Frauds*.  John has spent years unpacking how the teachings of Jesus have been distorted by Christian nationalism—and why reclaiming Jesus' message of love, justice, and human dignity is more urgent than ever. Along the way, there is a reflection on the surprising overlap between John's biblical insights and the message of A Course in Miracles—especially the emphasis on refusing to meet hatred with more hatred. ___________________________ Since 1993, our purpose has been to help with both the theory and practical application of A Course in Miracles.

The success of new far-right movements cannot be explained by fear or rage alone – the pleasures of aggression and violence are just as essential. As such, racism is particularly intense when it is erotically charged, migration presenting as a sexual threat to white women being one of many examples. Germany's strikingly successful right-wing political party Alternative für Deutschland is, according to the historian Dagmar Herzog, characterized by this “sexy racism,” with its second main feature being that of an obsessive hostility to disability – both elements resonating strongly with Nazism. In The New Fascist Body, Herzog connects her analysis of fascism's libidinous energy with its animus against bodies perceived as imperfect. Only by studying the emotional and intellectual worlds of past fascisms can we understand and combat their current manifestations. The book features an afterword by Alberto Toscano, author of Late Fascism: Race, Capitalism and the Politics of Crisis (Verso 2023). Lisa Schmidt-Herzog is a Berlin-based writer and researcher. Her academic work focuses on the biopolitics of medical standardization and the influence of cultural and ethico-political norms on mental health and illness. She is interested in the historicity of scientific concepts and subject-centered approaches to health and illness, and examines the radical thought of theorists and practitioners such as Georges Canguilhem, Frantz Fanon, and Erich Wulff. For NBN's Critical Theory channel, she focuses on medical pluralism, the relationship between health and resistance, and the pragmatics of healing. Learn more about your ad choices.

It's another day living with tens of millions of third-world Indians stealing American jobs, careers, citizenship, and resources—and therefore it's another day of learning that everything Indians is based on traditional third-world fraud, ethno-fascist nepotism, and vicious clan-centric self-serving exploitation of “others.”Spoiler:  the “others” being exploited are YOU and ME and EVERY OTHER tax paying (e.g., white) American citizen.

HRP is a nonpartisan 501(c)(3), and the views expressed by our guests are their own and do not constitute an endorsement.“Who's the most dangerous person in the world? Is it Chairman Kim, is it Xi Jinping?” The most dangerous person in the world is Randi Weingarten. It's not a close call.” At least, that's what Mike Pompeo, the former CIA Director and former US Secretary of State, told a reporter in 2022.Three years later, Randi Weingarten's rebuttal takes the form of a book, Why Fascists Fear Teachers: Public Education and the Future of Democracy, in which the long-time President of the American Federation of Teachers, representing nearly 2 million members, mounts a defense of democracy, teachers, and our public schools, arguing that “Public schools are laboratories of civil society and, at their best, embody the multifaith, multiracial coexistence that is our nation's best future…Fascists fear teachers because education is essential to democracy.”At its core are conjoined and fundamental questions I think we took for granted, until recently, as settled consensus in the United States of America: What is democracy? What is the role of public schools in a pluralistic democratic nation, and why are both worth keeping?To help us answer these questions and understand why fascists fear teachers is none other than AFT President, Randi Weingarten.Why Fascists Fear Teachers (AFT website)

In this episode of the Crazy Wisdom Podcast, host Stewart Alsop interviews Aurelio Gialluca, an economist and full stack data professional who works across finance, retail, and AI as both a data engineer and machine learning developer, while also exploring human consciousness and psychology. Their wide-ranging conversation covers the intersection of science and psychology, the unique cultural characteristics that make Argentina a haven for eccentrics (drawing parallels to the United States), and how Argentine culture has produced globally influential figures from Borges to Maradona to Che Guevara. They explore the current AI landscape as a "centralizing force" creating cultural homogenization (particularly evident in LinkedIn's cookie-cutter content), discuss the potential futures of AI development from dystopian surveillance states to anarchic chaos, and examine how Argentina's emotionally mature, non-linear communication style might offer insights for navigating technological change. The conversation concludes with Gialluca describing his ambitious project to build a custom water-cooled workstation with industrial-grade processors for his quantitative hedge fund, highlighting the practical challenges of heat management and the recent tripling of RAM prices due to market consolidation.Timestams00:00 Exploring the Intersection of Psychology and Science02:55 Cultural Eccentricity: Argentina vs. the United States05:36 The Influence of Religion on National Identity08:50 The Unique Argentine Cultural Landscape11:49 Soft Power and Cultural Influence14:48 Political Figures and Their Cultural Impact17:50 The Role of Sports in Shaping National Identity20:49 The Evolution of Argentine Music and Subcultures23:41 AI and the Future of Cultural Dynamics26:47 Navigating the Chaos of AI in Culture33:50 Equilibrating Society for a Sustainable Future35:10 The Patchwork Age: Decentralization and Society35:56 The Impact of AI on Human Connection38:06 Individualism vs. Collective Rules in Society39:26 The Future of AI and Global Regulations40:16 Biotechnology: The Next Frontier42:19 Building a Personal AI Lab45:51 Tiers of AI Labs: From Personal to Industrial48:35 Mathematics and AI: The Foundation of Innovation52:12 Stochastic Models and Predictive Analytics55:47 Building a Supercomputer: Hardware InsightsKey Insights1. Argentina's Cultural Exceptionalism and Emotional Maturity: Argentina stands out globally for allowing eccentrics to flourish and having a non-linear communication style that Gialluca describes as "non-monotonous systems." Argentines can joke profoundly and be eccentric while simultaneously being completely organized and straightforward, demonstrating high emotional intelligence and maturity that comes from their unique cultural blend of European romanticism and Latino lightheartedness.2. Argentina as an Underrecognized Cultural Superpower: Despite being introverted about their achievements, Argentina produces an enormous amount of global culture through music, literature, and iconic figures like Borges, Maradona, Messi, and Che Guevara. These cultural exports have shaped entire generations worldwide, with Argentina "stealing the thunder" from other nations and creating lasting soft power influence that people don't fully recognize as Argentine.3. AI's Cultural Impact Follows Oscillating Patterns: Culture operates as a dynamic system that oscillates between centralization and decentralization like a sine wave. AI currently represents a massive centralizing force, as seen in LinkedIn's homogenized content, but this will inevitably trigger a decentralization phase. The speed of this cultural transformation has accelerated dramatically, with changes that once took generations now happening in years.4. The Coming Bifurcation of AI Futures: Gialluca identifies two extreme possible endpoints for AI development: complete centralized control (the "Mordor" scenario with total surveillance) or complete chaos where everyone has access to dangerous capabilities like creating weapons or viruses. Finding a middle path between these extremes is essential for society's survival, requiring careful equilibrium between accessibility and safety.5. Individual AI Labs Are Becoming Democratically Accessible: Gialluca outlines a tier system for AI capabilities, where individuals can now build "tier one" labs capable of fine-tuning models and processing massive datasets for tens of thousands of dollars. This democratization means that capabilities once requiring teams of PhD scientists can now be achieved by dedicated individuals, fundamentally changing the landscape of AI development and access.6. Hardware Constraints Are the New Limiting Factor: While AI capabilities are rapidly advancing, practical implementation is increasingly constrained by hardware availability and cost. RAM prices have tripled in recent months, and the challenge of managing enormous heat output from powerful processors requires sophisticated cooling systems. These physical limitations are becoming the primary bottleneck for individual AI development.7. Data Quality Over Quantity Is the Critical Challenge: The main bottleneck for AI advancement is no longer energy or GPUs, but high-quality data for training. Early data labeling efforts produced poor results because labelers lacked domain expertise. The future lies in reinforcement learning (RL) environments where AI systems can generate their own high-quality training data, representing a fundamental shift in how AI systems learn and develop.

It's history that Japanese conservatives are trying to suppress. The Japanese Imperial Army's Unit 731 was the chemical and biological warfare facility that conducted experiments on about 14,000 people in China. None of those 14,000 survived, while the leaders of Unit 731 were granted immunity by the US in exchange for their "research."

Episode Summary:In this episode of Explaining History, Nick explores the neglected connection between economic austerity and political repression in the early years of Fascist Italy.Drawing on the groundbreaking work of economist Clara Mattei, we delve into how Mussolini's regime used budget cuts, regressive taxation, and mass layoffs not just to balance the books, but to crush the Italian working class. We examine the "Two Red Years" (Biennio Rosso) that terrified the bourgeoisie and how Fascism was welcomed by liberal elites as a necessary tool to restore order and protect private capital.From the hiking of third-class rail fares to the slashing of veteran benefits, we unpack how economic policy was weaponized to reverse the democratic gains of the post-WWI era. Was austerity the true engine of the Fascist counter-revolution?Key Topics:Austerity as Repression: How economic policy was used to discipline the working class.The Liberal-Fascist Alliance: Why mainstream economists supported Mussolini.The Biennio Rosso: The socialist uprising that terrified Italy's elites.The Motto "Nothing for Nothing": De Stefani's ruthless approach to public spending.Resources:"Austerity and Repressive Politics: Italian Economists and the Early Years of the Fascist Government" by Clara Mattei (Institute of Economics, Scuola Superiore Sant'Anna)Explaining History helps you understand the 20th Century through critical conversations and expert interviews.

In this episode, Bill talks with John Fugelsang about his new book, Separation of Church and Hate: A Sane Person's Guide to Taking Back the Bible from Fundamentalists, Fascists, and Flock-Fleecing Frauds. The discussion focuses on what it really means to follow the teachings of Jesus Christ and critiques the hypocrisy of the religious right. Fugelsang argues that fundamentalists have hijacked Christianity, using it to justify hateful and exclusionary policies while ignoring the core messages of Jesus about love, humility, and service to others. He also addresses hot-button issues like abortion, immigration, and LGBTQ rights, tying each back to scripture to expose the contradictions in right-wing Christian rhetoric. The conversation ends by highlighting progressive Christians and leaders who are working to reclaim Christianity from the clutches of fundamentalism.You can purchase his great book here.Today's Bill Press Pod is supported by The Ironworkers Union.

Email us: Will@faithfulpoliticspodcast.comIn this wide-ranging and deeply personal conversation, Will Wright sits down with comedian, broadcaster, and author John Fugelsang to unpack how Christianity became entangled with political power - and how the teachings of Jesus have been distorted to justify cruelty, exclusion, and authoritarianism.Drawing from his book Separation of Church and Hate, Fugelsang challenges the idea that modern right-wing politics reflect Christian values. He walks through how scripture is selectively weaponized around issues like immigration, LGBTQ rights, abortion, gun policy, and punishment, while the actual teachings of Jesus - care for the poor, welcome the stranger, reject violence, and show mercy - are ignored.The discussion moves beyond critique and toward hope. Fugelsang reflects on his unusual upbringing as the son of a former nun and Franciscan brother, his journey through faith and doubt, and why he still believes Jesus matters even for people who have deconstructed organized religion. Together, Will and John explore what a healthier relationship between faith and public life could look like - one rooted in compassion rather than dominance, and transformation rather than fear.This episode is an honest, challenging, and often humorous examination of what it really means to follow Jesus in a polarized political age. Buy Separation of Church and HateA Sane Person's Guide to Taking Back the Bible from Fundamentalists, Fascists, and Flock-Fleecing Frauds: https://bookshop.org/a/112456/9781668066898Guest BioJohn Fugelsang is an actor, comedian, broadcaster, and political commentator known for blending humor, history, and faith-based critique.

Tom Malinowski isn't just running for Congress again, he's running straight into the flamethrower Trump has aimed at democracy, foreign policy, and the rule of law.  If you've been doomscrolling FBI hearings about “Antifa terrorists,” boat strikes in the Caribbean, and Republicans suddenly remembering they have spines, this episode has you covered. Topics include: • How Trump's team is using drug-war theater on the high seas to test-drive a terrifying theory of power: if anyone can be labeled a “terrorist,” anyone can be stripped of rights, due process, or worse.• Why a dry-sounding “National Security Strategy” document is actually a seismic attempt to cozy up to far-right, fascist-adjacent movements in Europe—and what that means for democracy here and abroad.• The quiet rebellion inside the GOP: discharge petitions, surprise votes in places like Indiana, and why the spell around Trump might finally be cracking, just a little. -     Why Tom's race matters: Former congressman Tom Malinowski joins Jo to connect all of it: foreign policy, Trump's grift, Republican cowardice, and the first big House race for Mikie Sherrill's old New Jersey seat.  He lays out what real accountability could look like if Democrats claw back power.  SANE(ish) Partners -   ⁠AuraFrames⁠: Exclusive $35-off Carver Mat at ⁠https://on.auraframes.com/JOJO⁠.

John talks about the epic failures by Trump lackies to accomplish many of his tasks including a federal judge ordering Kilmar Abrego Garcia released from federal detention and Trump's redistricting plan for Indiana being soundly rejected by a bipartisan majority in the state house. Then, he chats with Democratic Strategist Max Burns on the Senate rejected both the Democrat AND Republican healthcare bills, and Trump's newest war with Venezuela. Then finally, John jokes with comedian Tara Dublin on the chaotic mishaps in the news and they take calls from the Evil Army of the Night on how to navigate the mayhem of Trumpland.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Donate towards buses to bring people to DC.Today we share comments from Sunsara Taylor, co-initiator of RefuseFascism.org, about recent developments: the extreme demonization and dehumanization of immigrants, the threats against those Democrats who have pointed out that troops take an oath to the constitution and have a responsibility to refuse illegal orders, and the threats of war against Venezuela. Then, Sam interviews Dr. Nicholas Grossman, political science professor at the University of Illinois and author of Drones and Terrorism about the Trump fascist regime's views towards war, war crimes and their efforts to change the military in line with their goals, which seems to be coming to a head with the US strikes on boats in the Caribbean and threads against Venezuela.

Patrick Bet-David, Tom Ellsworth, Vincent Oshana, and Adam Sosnick break down Zohran Mamdani calling Trump a fascist, Marjorie Taylor Greene's sudden resignation, Putin's proposed peace deal, and explosive allegations that Minnesota tax dollars may have indirectly funded Al-Shabaab.------

Trump flips the script on socialist Mamdani with a single line: “Just say yes.” The viral Oval Office moment caught the internet by surprise as both sides claimed victory. But insiders say Trump walked away owning the narrative and neutralizing the attack.

In an exclusive interview with Meet the Press, New York City Mayor-elect Zohran Mamdani describes his “productive” Oval Office meeting with President Trump, during which the president offered warm praise — but says he still views Trump as a “fascist” and a “despot,” even as he plans to work with the White House.

New Discourses Bullets, Ep. 136 When it comes to economic organization (not necessarily political organization), we might be tempted to ask why it is that Fascist economies don't work. It seems like they might, after all, once you understand that they still enable what might be called a "deferred free enterprise" system, allowing for the profit motive after the government gets its own. In this episode of New Discourses Bullets, host James Lindsay (featuring a post by Logan Lancing) dives into the problem with Fascist (Stakeholder) economic models on a variety of levels, using both economic theory and historical and contemporary examples to make his point. Join him to understand why we should not readily embrace such a model for ourselves. Latest from New Discourses Press!
