This episode of the Carl Jackson Show is a must-listen for anyone concerned about the state of our society and the erosion of Western values. The host delves into a disturbing story from the UK, where a young man named Henry Noak was stabbed to death by an immigrant from India, and the police response was shocking. But this is more than just a tragic incident - it's a symptom of a larger problem that's affecting the West. The host explores how the left's obsession with communism and identity politics is leading to the undermining of Western civilization. He discusses how the left is using class warfare and racism to advance their agenda, and how this is being used to destroy the Christian foundation of modern society. The host also touches on the California elections, where the Democrat machine is trying to cheat and manipulate the outcome. The episode is a wake-up call for anyone who cares about the future of our country and the values that made it great. The host shares a powerful article from The Federalist, which highlights the sinister motives behind the left's actions. He also discusses the case of Graham Plattner, a Democrat who's being pushed by the left to run for office, and how the left is using character assassination to destroy their opponents. If you're concerned about the direction our country is heading and want to understand the underlying forces driving the left's agenda, this episode is a must-listen.

Did Daily Wire really torch $100 million on Bentkey? Marcus Pittman, CEO of LOOR TV, called the collapse of conservative streaming years before it happened - and he is back on the show to explain exactly why conservative entertainment keeps losing. Four years ago Marcus came on with a contrarian pitch that made VCs laugh in his face - Netflix meets Kickstarter, where subscribers decide what gets made. Today he has funded nearly 40 pieces of content for under a million bucks, the same number the venture guys swore would cost over $100 million. He bet against the room and the room was wrong. Here is the mistake that keeps sinking the right. Conservatives build content for the parent and forget the parent is not the consumer - the kid is. McDonald's figured this out with the Happy Meal in the 70s. Chuck E Cheese figured it out. Bentkey never did, ad the bill came due to the tune of nine figures. Then we get into the part nobody on our side wants to hear. Rumble keeps screaming "free speech platform" while quietly admitting they have no Mr. Beast. Microsoft lit $100 million on fire chasing Ninja over to Mixer. The pattern is always the same - buy the big name, wait for the audience to follow, watch it crash. Marcus lays out the open letter he wrote Chris Pavlovsky and the playbook that actually builds an audience from zero. We close on where this is all going - why Gen Z does not care about celebrities, why the next great Christian film might be a Ryan Gosling space movie, and why the human connection that AI can never fake is the whole ballgame. If you build, fund, or just consume content, this one will recalibrate how you think about the entire game.

In 2010, two landmark decisions transformed American campaign finance law. The first was Citizens United v. Federal Election Commission. The second was SpeechNow.org v. FEC. Together, these cases cleared the way for corporations and so-called Super PACs to raise and spend unlimited sums of money in elections. What followed was a new era in American politics where individuals, corporations, and industries increasingly spent more and more money to influence campaigns and public opinion. To debate the constitutional, political, and historical questions surrounding money in politics, we are joined by Larry Lessig and Paul Sherman. Lessig is a Harvard Law professor and the founder of Equal Citizens, one of the country's leading advocates for campaign finance reform. Sherman is a senior attorney at the Institute for Justice who served as co-counsel in SpeechNow.org. Read Larry's paper "If Roe, then Buckley" here.

VR32 - As the economic effects of Trump's war of choice in the Middle East begin to hit home, his party is playing the one card it has going into the midterms: the promise of fully restoring open white supremacy to the US immigration system. We begin with a sampler platter of amuse douche from a recent episode of Tim Pool's podcast–mercifully free of Tim Pool–to get a sense of how the MAGA right is talking about immigration reform these days. Matt then gives a brief history lesson about the openly racist origins of the Immigration Act of 1924 and the Cold War origins of the 1965 Hart-Celler bill which Republicans are now trying to repeal before we dive into the main course: a recent piece in The Federalist written in support of Rep. Andy Ogle's Assimilation Act. Why do these people hate families so much? Can Congress really end birthright citizenship? And can you really build an entire thinkpiece entirely out of red flags? Join us this week on Vapid Response Wednesday to find out. The National Visa Bulletin's website Whom We Shall Welcome (1952) The Immigration and Nationality Act of 1965 It's Long Past Time To Scrap Hart-Celler And Insist That Immigrants Assimilate (John Daniel Davidson, The Federalist; 5/15/2026) Watch us on YouTube!

Political Scientist Steve Knott has a new book that focuses on conspiracy theories within the American presidency and often promulgated by the president himself. This is not, per se, a book about conspiracy theories in general, but about the narratives that presidents have used—that constitutes a kind of conspiracy thinking—to engage voters and push for particular policy ideas and outcomes. Conspirator in Chief: The Long Tradition of Conspiracy Theories in the American Presidency (UP Kansas, 2025) spans the entire history of the United States, paying close attention to presidents Thomas Jefferson, Andrew Jackson, Andrew Johnson, Woodrow Wilson, Franklin Roosevelt and Harry Truman, Richard Nixon, and finally Donald Trump. These particular presidents, both during their administrations and after, made use of conspiracies and/or demagogic rhetoric to encourage their supporters and to appeal to public fears. As Knott notes, Alexander Hamilton warns against this in both Federalist #1 and Federalist #85, wrapping the discussion of the new Constitution in concerns with regard to demagoguery. So many of the conspiracies that are pushed by presidents have at their base racism and an effort to fan the flames of racial fear and resentment. Jefferson, Jackson, Johnson, and Wilson all made use of racism as a part of their conspiracies. Conspirator in Chief: The Long Tradition of Conspiracy Theories in the American Presidency also mines the deep vein of conspiracy theories around moneyed and elite interests, since many presidents cast these interests as predatory and “out to get” the average citizen. This is another constant approach among the presidents from the early days of the republic through to our contemporary “conspirator in chief” Donald Trump. Part of the way that presidents use these kinds of conspiracies is to set up a dichotomy of those who are with the president and those who are against the president, and this latter group is, inevitably, also opposed to the country as a whole and the way of life in the United States. Knott explains that this was the kind of rhetoric that both FDR and Truman used in their implementation of this kind of conspiratorial rhetoric. This also leans on national security as a point of contention, and that those in opposition to the president or the president's policies are also potential threats to the republic.

Political Scientist Steve Knott has a new book that focuses on conspiracy theories within the American presidency and often promulgated by the president himself. This is not, per se, a book about conspiracy theories in general, but about the narratives that presidents have used—that constitutes a kind of conspiracy thinking—to engage voters and push for particular policy ideas and outcomes. Conspirator in Chief: The Long Tradition of Conspiracy Theories in the American Presidency (UP Kansas, 2025) spans the entire history of the United States, paying close attention to presidents Thomas Jefferson, Andrew Jackson, Andrew Johnson, Woodrow Wilson, Franklin Roosevelt and Harry Truman, Richard Nixon, and finally Donald Trump. These particular presidents, both during their administrations and after, made use of conspiracies and/or demagogic rhetoric to encourage their supporters and to appeal to public fears. As Knott notes, Alexander Hamilton warns against this in both Federalist #1 and Federalist #85, wrapping the discussion of the new Constitution in concerns with regard to demagoguery. So many of the conspiracies that are pushed by presidents have at their base racism and an effort to fan the flames of racial fear and resentment. Jefferson, Jackson, Johnson, and Wilson all made use of racism as a part of their conspiracies. Conspirator in Chief: The Long Tradition of Conspiracy Theories in the American Presidency also mines the deep vein of conspiracy theories around moneyed and elite interests, since many presidents cast these interests as predatory and “out to get” the average citizen. This is another constant approach among the presidents from the early days of the republic through to our contemporary “conspirator in chief” Donald Trump. Part of the way that presidents use these kinds of conspiracies is to set up a dichotomy of those who are with the president and those who are against the president, and this latter group is, inevitably, also opposed to the country as a whole and the way of life in the United States. Knott explains that this was the kind of rhetoric that both FDR and Truman used in their implementation of this kind of conspiratorial rhetoric. This also leans on national security as a point of contention, and that those in opposition to the president or the president's policies are also potential threats to the republic.

When conservatives wax poetic about their favorite Supreme Court justices from what one might call the “Federalist Society era” of Republican appointments, Clarence Thomas and the late Antonin Scalia take precedence. The oldest may prefer the late William Rehnquist, for a time the lone “originalist” on the court; the youngest may prefer Neil Gorsuch, the libertarian radical appointed by President Donald Trump in 2017. But today's guest argues for Samuel Alito, appointed as George W. Bush's second choice for the vacancy created by the retirement of Sandra Day O'Connor in 2005, as perhaps the most consequential of them all.

VR28 - On this week's Vapid Response, we survey the fallout from California Congressman Eric Swalwell's recent exposure as a longtime sexual predator and ensuing swift exit from both the California governor's race and Congress itself. What does Swalwell's fall say about how our country's two political parties handle these kinds of allegations in 2026--and can we once again count on The Federalist to deliver the stupidest possible take on the situation? We then briefly revisit the single worst take on the allegations raised against Brett Kavanaugh during his 2018 confirmation process before paying tribute to the women who organized to bring Swalwell's many abuses of his power and privilege to light.

The New Discourses Podcast with James Lindsay, Ep. 200 At the end of the day, the magic that makes the American Experiment work is that it is grounded in an astute understanding of human nature and political realism. Almost nowhere is this fact more evident than in Federalist 51 (https://founders.archives.gov/documents/Hamilton/01-04-02-0199), written by either James Madison or Alexander Hamilton in early 1788. In this Federalist Paper, addressed to the people of the State of New York, Madison (or Hamilton) makes the case for the need for a federal government but also one with divided powers. In this episode of the New Discourses Podcast, host James Lindsay reads through Federalist 51 and explains its relevance to our "anti-Woke" approach. Join him to see how solid America's founding really was. Latest from New Discourses Press!
