Francis Fukuyama, Linda Chavez, and Rachel Janfaza join Yascha Mounk to discuss what a radical liberal agenda might look like today. In this week's episode of The Good Fight Club, Yascha Mounk, Francis Fukuyama, Linda Chavez, and Rachel Janfaza explore whether Gen Z's political instincts are genuinely liberal, what a renewed liberalism needs to reclaim from the republican tradition, and how to rebuild a culture of public-spiritedness in an age of anti-establishment politics. Francis Fukuyama is the Olivier Nomellini Senior Fellow at Stanford University and the founder of American Purpose. His latest book is Liberalism and Its Discontents. Linda Chavez is the Vice Chair of the Renew Democracy Initiative, founded by Garry Kasparov. She previously served in the Reagan administration and has been a syndicated columnist and political commentator for decades. Rachel Janfaza is the founder of Up and Up, where she researches and writes about the political beliefs and cultural attitudes of Gen Z.

There are so many ways to end a movie. Some of the most powerful, yet hardest to do, are movie twists. This is where your entire reality and understanding of what has come before gets a kick to the head. Movies like The Sixth Sense, Psycho, Fight Club, even the wonderfully hysterical and nutty I Know Who Killed Me starring Lindsey Lohan fall in this category. The shock ending is different-it doesn't reconfigure reality but it leaves us gut-punched and stunned. Martin Scorsese's The Departed, Frank Darabont's The Mist. Secret Movie Club founder.programmer Craig Hammill takes a look at these kinds of endings and more. He also offers a COMPLETE LIST OF MOVIES DISCUSSED at beginning of pod because he's going to talk/spoil many of them. If you want, see them first, then listen here.

Are you tired of trying to control every detail of your own life, or are you ready to hand over the pen and let God write your story? This week on Off Script, Neil and Scott Hatfield dive deep into the messy reality of faith, what it means to drop our self-made plans, and how we can learn to trust in God's relentless covenant. The guys discuss the grueling seasons of questioning God through life's deep valleys, why frustration expressed in prayer is still an act of faith, and how to cultivate eyes to see the quiet "God moments" hidden in our daily routines and surrounding community. The Challenge This week, create intentional space to look back and audit your life for "God moments." Take a long drive, open a journal, or sit down with a friend and write out 2–3 specific times where God showed His faithfulness to you in the past, choosing to actively remember His track record instead of getting paralyzed by the what-ifs of your current season. Hosts: Neil Gregory and Scott Hatfield What We Discuss Unpacking the true depth of a biblical "covenant" as a waiverless, relentless, dogged faithfulness Navigating the exhausting emotional, physical, and relational toll of infertility, and playing "mind games" with God during the waiting Why Abraham's raw frustration with God is still an expression of faith, and why gut-wrenching prayers are still prayers The power of Christian community and why stepping "off the island" of isolation into group life is vital for gritty discipleship A sneak peek into the upcoming launch of Fight Club Online, shifting the men's ministry curriculum into a high-impact, 10-week format Details for the upcoming Fight Club group leader interest meeting on August 10th at the Nicholasville campus ⸻ About Southland Christian Church Southland is one church meeting in multiple locations across central Kentucky.

This episode delivers a hard-hitting tactical blueprint to help men reclaim control over their thoughts from the grip of mental temptation by using a 3-step discipline routine rooted in breathing, Scripture, and positive mental substitution.Key TakeawaysYour Brain is the Supreme Battlefield: External adjustments are vital, but victory or defeat is entirely decided in your internal thought life. If you cannot control your thoughts, you cannot claim true self-control.The Brain Cannot Differentiate Fantasy from Reality: Entertaining lustful thoughts triggers the same neurological damage as physical compromise. You are feeding a mental cancer that will continuously demand more territory.The Law of Positive Substitution: The human mind cannot process negative commands effectively (e.g., "don't think about a pink elephant"). True thought discipline requires replacing a toxic thought with a highly detailed, positive focus (like skiing down a favorite mountain).Expect the Neural Backlash: When you begin enforcing boundaries, your brain will rebel with intense, highly intrusive, or shocking thoughts to force you back into old dopamine loops. This is a sign of a dying habit, not a personal failure.Mentioned in This EpisodeScripture Passage: Romans 12:2 (The renewing of your mind)Scripture Passage: Ephesians 6 (The Armor of God & The Sword of the Spirit)Scripture Passage: 1 Corinthians 6:18-20 (Flee sexual immorality, you were bought at a price)Scripture Passage: Philippians 4:8 (Fix your thoughts on what is true, pure, and lovely)

The Odyssey Isn't About Monsters. It's About Trust. Before Christopher Nolan brings The Odyssey to the big screen, Curtis Chang and Jessica Hooten Wilson revisit Homer's ancient epic to ask what the story is really about: monsters, homecoming, and the search for truth among intentional lies. They explore why reading The Odyssey still matters in the age of film and AI, how Odysseus forces us to ask who we can trust, and what Christians can learn from Greek myths and pagan gods about the one true God revealed in Scripture. 03:53 - Reading the Homer vs. Watching Matt Damon 05:38 - When to Read the Book First? 11:06 - How "The Odyssey" Changes with the Reader 13:32 - Did A Woman Really Write The Odyssey? 16:50 - What Is The Unreliable Narrator? 23:23 - The Psychological Impact of an Unreliable Narrator 31:27 - A Christian Approach to Greek Mythology 34:37 - Understanding The Greco-Roman Culture of Jesus 41:36 - The Irreplaceable Human Elements of Teaching Literature in the Age of AI Sign up for The After Party Sign up for our newsletter and The Good List Mentioned in This Episode: Homer's The Odyssey (Stanley Lombardo's translation) Homer's The Iliad Nadya Williams's Christians Reading the Classics Yann Martel's Son of Nobody Yann Martel's Life of Pi Edith Hamilton's Mythology: Timeless Tales of Gods and Heroes Neil Gaiman's Norse Mythology Natalie Haynes's Pandora's Jar: Women in the Greek Myths Christopher Nolan's Memento (trailer) David Fincher's Fight Club (trailer) An Introduction to 1 and 2 Samuel (The story of King David) More From Jessica Hooten Wilson: Jessica Hooten Wilson's website Explore Jessica's books HERE Read articles and Essay by Jessica HERE Follow Us: Good Faith on Instagram Good Faith on X (formerly Twitter) Good Faith on Facebook The Good Faith Podcast is a production of a 501(c)(3) nonpartisan organization that does not engage in any political campaign activity to support or oppose any candidate for public office.

In this episode, we go over how unchecked eyes secretly ruin your personal defenses and drive your life toward temptation. 1. Chronological "Chapter" Timestamps[00:00] - The Driver's Ed Rule: Why your life inevitably drifts in the exact direction of your eyes.[01:15] - The Citadel and the Open Gate: How bad eye discipline allows the enemy to quietly assemble an army inside your walls.[02:10] - The National Geographic Mindset: Confronting the toxic habit of taking "mental snapshots" for later.[03:30] - The Act of Stealing: Why looking with lust objectifies others and strips away your own future loyalty.[04:45] - The Overflowing Bucket: How temptation builds gradually drop-by-drop until sudden failure occurs.[06:00] - Master the "Eye Bounce": The practical, immediate action step to redirect your gaze and your mind.[07:15] - The Covenant of Job: Relying on Scripture (Job 31:1) to anchor your visual integrity.[08:40] - The 6-Week Neurological Shift: What to expect when your eyes stop fighting against you and start fighting for you.2. Deep-Dive Key TakeawaysThe Law of Visual Direction: Just like driving a car at 70 mph or navigating a mountain bike through a berm, your body biologically follows your gaze. If you look at the median, you crash into it. If you look at lust, your life steers directly into it.The Illusion of Sudden Failure: Relapse never happens all at once. Your mind is a bucket left out in a rainstorm. Every lingering look is a single drop of water. You don't notice the danger early on, but eventually, the bucket overflows and breaks. Moving the bucket means refusing to collect the drops.Lust as Spiritual Theft: Looking lustfully at a woman is not a victimless crime. It is an act of theft—stealing her dignity, stealing your own integrity, and stealing the exclusive loyalty that belongs to your future or current wife.

Edward Norton (The Invite, Fight Club, and American History X) is an Academy Award-nominated actor, filmmaker, and environmental entrepreneur. Edward joins the Armchair Expert to discuss growing up with a visionary city-planner grandfather, methodically living on $11,000 a year as a young actor in New York, and building a port-emissions company that sucks poison from cargo ships. Edward and Dax talk about the actor's narcissistic brain, why he doesn't treat film like a volume game, and the exhilarating trust Olivia Wilde created while directing The Invite. Edward explains the difference between iconic actors and shape-shifting actors, why uncertainty can be the gateway to deeper work, and how the things we absorb from the world become what we eventually give back through art.Check Allstate first for a quote that could save you hundreds: https://www.allstate.com/See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

The Fight Club of Pain has been on a betting and DFS tear, and it's legendary. At the same time, Dan and I attended a live fantasy football draft at the Aslin Beer Company, who hosted the Scott Fish Bowl 16 draft.

Is Fight Club by Chuck Palahniuk still relevant today? In this month's Bookmarked Book Club, Marisa Serafini and I dive into one of the most influential novels of the past 30 years and discuss why its themes of consumerism, toxic masculinity, loneliness, identity, violence, and anti-capitalism remain just as provocative today as they were in 1996.We compare the original novel with David Fincher's iconic film adaptation starring Edward Norton and Brad Pitt, explore the psychology behind Tyler Durden and the Narrator, unpack Project Mayhem, and discuss why Fight Club has become one of the most misunderstood stories in modern pop culture. We also examine what the book is actually saying—and what many audiences have mistakenly taken away from it.Book vs. Movie Comparison: https://lucyvhayauthor.com/book-versus-film-an-epic-study-of-fight-club/We also share what we've been reading outside of book club, including Supergirl: Woman of Tomorrow, TJ Klune, Pride Month book discoveries, and our upcoming reading list.Upcoming Book Club Picks: La Belle Sauvage (Book 1 of The Book of Dust) — Philip Pullman (July 2026) Fairest — Meredith Talusan (August 2026) Nervous Conditions — Tsitsi Dangarembga (September 2026) TBD (October 2026) Maus: A Survivor's Tale — Art Spiegelman (November 2026)Topics Covered Why Fight Club still resonates nearly 30 years later The real meaning behind Tyler Durden Why the Narrator doesn't have a name Consumerism as the novel's central villain The psychology of repression and split identity What Project Mayhem actually represents The male loneliness epidemic and modern relevance Why audiences often misunderstand Fight Club Biggest differences between the book and movie The symbolism behind the soap Our favorite moments from the novel What we're reading next

Passend zum Pride Month empfiehlt Moviepilot-Redakteurin Joana Müller euch in dieser Folge die Highschool-Komödie Bottoms. Zum deutschen Start erhielt die Kultkomödie mit Rachel Sennott, Ayo Edibiri und Nicholas Galitzine nämlich nicht die Aufmerksamkeit, die sie verdient. Warum ihr diesen queeren Mix aus Superpad und Fight Club unbedingt schauen solltet, erklärt Joana im Podcast. Und nebenbei sei erwähnt: Die Laufzeit von 91 Minuten ist wirklich unschlagbar! Bottoms streamt unter anderem bei MGM+ auf Amazon. *** Dieser Podcast wird gesponsert von MagentaTV – dem TV- und Streaming-Angebot der Telekom.

In this episode, we break down the critical framework of "environment discipline" and why trying to negotiate with your daily temptations is a guaranteed path to failure.Chronological Chapter Timestamps[00:00] — The Ultimate Test of Resolve Why this specific topic separates the men from the boys and causes immediate pushback from almost every man who hears it.[00:55] — The Metaphor of the Midnight Thief A visual breakdown of how we willingly leave our windows unlocked and keys in the door for an enemy that destroys everything we love.[02:15] — The Myth of Negotiating with Temptation Confronting the toxic illusion that you can keep the apps, late-night habits, and toxic friends while expecting your life to change.[04:00] — Introduction to Environment Discipline Defining the core framework of the fight: why you should never risk fighting a temptation tomorrow that you can eliminate today.[05:20] — The Cannons on the Hill Using wartime terminology to illustrate the sheer arrogance of leaving weapons of mass destruction aimed directly at your encampment.[06:45] — Do You Actually Want to Be Healed? Diving deep into the biblical account of the paralyzed man at the pool and what it truly means to "pick up your mat" and leave your old life behind.[09:10] — The Consequence of Extremity vs. Moderation Weighing the minor social discomfort of being "too extreme" against the catastrophic cost of not being extreme enough.[11:00] — Burning the Ships: Lessons from Cortez How historical commander Hernán Cortés forced absolute commitment from his men, and how to apply a "scorched earth" policy to your digital accounts.[13:10] — Amputation Over Accommodation Unpacking Jesus' radical command to gouge out eyes and cut off hands, translating ancient truth into modern digital boundaries.[15:45] — The 100-Day Scorched Earth Action Plan How to audit your environment tonight, pull your Fight Club into the loop, and commit to a season of absolute clearance.Key TakeawaysThe Illusion of Negotiation You cannot sit in the muck of the pigpen and expect to stay clean. Keeping triggering apps, watching boundary-pushing TV shows, or hanging out with friends who fuel your bad habits is a soft compromise that always ends in failure. If nothing changes, nothing changes.Environment Discipline Over Willpower Willpower is a finite resource. Environment discipline removes the battle entirely by asking a simple question: Why risk fighting a temptation tomorrow if you have the power to eliminate it today? Your environment directly dictates your visual inputs, which ultimately drive your thoughts, feelings, and actions.The "Mat" of Comfort When Jesus healed the paralyzed man, telling him to "pick up his mat" wasn't just a physical instruction—it was an environmental command. The mat represented his old life, his comfort zone, and his identity as a beggar. Carrying it meant he was leaving that space permanently with no option to return.Abstinence Over Moderation Moderation leaves the door shut but completely unlocked. Abstinence bars the entrance entirely. True freedom requires a "scorched earth" strategy—deleting your actual accounts (not just removing the apps) so that re-downloading them out of boredom or loneliness is no longer an easy escape route.
In this episode of Bring the Pain, Dan and I are back to talk about this weekend's UFC event in Baku. After last week's success, we want to continue this hot streak going into the off week before coming back to UFC 329. That means we'll have free bets, parlays, and DFS theory to help you slay the slates. Also, the Soup Can of the Week and the Parlay of Pain will be back to help us win some more fireworks money. So you better buckle up because this ride is about to take off. Have a great day, everyone, and may the fights be with you.

This week on Page Chewing, I'm talking about the books currently on my nightstand and a question every reader eventually faces: why do we reread books we've already finished?I share my ongoing rereads of The Bonehunters and The Darkness That Comes Before, discuss why some stories become comfort reads while others are one-and-done experiences, and explore how our relationship with books changes as we grow older. Are rereads a waste of time, or do great books reveal something new every time we return to them?Along the way, I chat about The Prophet, Lone Wolf and Cub, Carpentry and the Elven Forest, revisiting Fight Club, and why slowing down and appreciating the stories we love might be more important than chasing the next big thing.What are you reading this week? And what's one book you'll never stop coming back to?Podcast equipment used (Amazon Affiliate links):Rodecaster DuoRode PSA1+ Professional Studio ArmRode Procaster Microphone
In this episode, we discuss how establishing a structured daily routine serves as the ultimate weapon for breaking free from destructive cycles and maintaining long-term spiritual freedom.Key TakeawaysRoutine is Your Foundation: Think of a structured routine as building your life on solid rock. Without it, your discipline feels shaky, leaving you highly vulnerable to old triggers when life gets chaotic.The Power of the Bookends: Master your morning and evening. Establishing strict, consistent wake-up and bedtimes creates the psychological boundaries necessary to maintain daily self-control.Structure Eradicates Vulnerability: Lust thrives in unstructured gaps of time. By proactively mapping out your day, you drastically reduce the idle moments where temptation typically strikes.The Trifecta of Daily Defense: True freedom is maintained through three core daily habits: Dedicated Spiritual Time to ground your mind, Journaling (especially video journaling) to track your triggers and progress, and Physical Exercise (like a simple daily push-up challenge) to burn off restless energy and foster physical discipline.Consistency Over Intensity: Overambitious schedules lead to rapid burnout. Keep your routine remarkably simple and sustainable—doing the small things every single day is what builds the "save button" for your progress.Chapters[00:00] — The Solid Rock: Why routine is the essential, missing foundation for a sustainable life.[00:28] — My Story: A personal look at breaking free from lust and the exact role routine played in that victory.[01:58] — Breaking the Relapse Cycle: How a structured day acts as the ultimate pattern-interrupter for chronic habits.[04:15] — Redefining Discipline: Shifting your mindset from seeing routine as a punishment to seeing it as your ultimate path to freedom.[05:12] — Eliminating Idle Time: How to use scheduling as a shield against temptation during unstructured hours.[07:33] — The 5 Core Habits: A practical breakdown of wake-up times, sleep, spiritual focus, journaling, and exercise.[09:20] — Tracking the Triggers: How written and video journaling expose the patterns behind your slips.[13:02] — Managing Restless Energy: Utilizing simple physical movement (like daily push-ups) to build physical self-control.[15:22] — The Burnout Trap: Why keeping your habits simple and manageable prevents dangerous exhaustion.[16:42] — The Progress "Save Button": How the cumulative power of small actions locks in your spiritual gains over time.[21:04] — A Shield, Not a Cure: Understanding that routine doesn't instantly solve the problem—it creates the environment for victory to happen.[23:25] — The Final Key: Why doing the small things daily beats rare, intense efforts every single time.
In this episode of Bring the Pain, Dan and I are back to deliver more great bets and talk fight theory as we cover UFC Vegas 119, which features Manel Kape versus Kyoji Horiguchi. As always, we'll be giving out parlays and our DFS plays of the week as we continue to ride this hot streak we've been on for a year. With only two events left before a break for the Fourth of July, you'll want to make as much money now, so we have a bankroll for when the UFC resumes. Buckle up, because it's time to slay the sportsbooks once again. Have a great day, everyone, and may the fights be with you. Time Stamps: What's Cooking: Fantasy Football at Dr. Roto.com!!!

In this episode of Bring the Pain, I'm back and ready to review this weekend's sports action, along with my thoughts on UFC Freedom 250. I'll talk about the bets and DFS slates, as well as some of the crazy hits I had for the MLB and soccer. In the end, I have another thank you to do, for a nation, who went all out for last week's Fight Club of Pain show about UFC Macau. That means you better buckle up because this ride is about to take off. Have a great day, everyone, and may the thanks be with you.
Outside of the very well known rules, there's a whole load of other stuff about 1999's Fight Club. There's the director who turned the book down, freely admitting they didn't get it. There's the moment when the budget was suddenly going to soar. There's the bit where the studio boss knew he was going to hit trouble for greenlighting the film (and boy, did he). And then there was a studio left with a film it didn't know how to market. The story is told in this episode.

Guest speaker Jared Wilson talks about sexual and pornography addiction.
Phil and Emily are joined by writer Elias Isquith (Necessary Fictions blog) to close out the Angelina Jolie Action Films of the 2000s miniseries with the loudest, messiest entry yet: Timur Bekmambetov's Wanted (2008).James McAvoy plays a cubicle drone recruited by Angelina Jolie and Morgan Freeman into a secret fraternity of assassins that takes its orders from a magical loom. Yes, a loom. The movie was a surprise hit the summer it opened alongside WALL-E, weeks before The Dark Knight blew everything away, and none of them had seen it since theaters. Rewatching it in 2026 was a very different experience.The conversation digs into how Wanted plays like a proto-incel power fantasy, a movie that negs its audience for 110 minutes and then stares into the camera asking "what the fuck have you done lately?" They trace the line from Fight Club and The Matrix to this film's confused politics, where the message is "be free and take charge of your life" but also "obey the magic loom or die." Emily breaks down the gendered self-loathing baked into so many films aimed at young men, and Elias connects the movie's hyper-individualism to the toxic masculinity pipeline that would migrate to social media just a year later. They also talk about Angelina Jolie's decision to kill off her own character, why the film's structure feels like a video game with half-assed cutscenes, and how Zack Snyder somehow handles this same territory with more nuance.Follow the show & guests:Podcast Like It's... — https://www.instagram.com/podcastlikeitsPhil Iscove — https://www.instagram.com/pmiscoveEmily St. James — https://www.instagram.com/emilystjamsElias Isquith — NecessaryFictions.blog - https://www.instagram.com/eliasisquith
In this episode, we break down the critical necessity of building a confidential "Fight Club" brotherhood to break free from the trap of lust and isolation. We walk through how to identify hidden blind spots, unpack a powerful four-question framework for mandatory daily check-ins, and lay down three non-negotiable rules of accountability.⏱️ Chronological "Chapter" Timestamps[00:00] — The Image to Protect The trap of the naturally guilty conscience, keeping secrets from the world, and the 5-year refusal to accept parental advice on vulnerability.[01:14] — The 80% Reality Check Deconstructing the lie that you are alone or weird. Overcoming the pride and ego that prevent men from admitting they lack the willpower to do it alone.[02:18] — Isolation Breeds Lust Why isolation is the ultimate breeding ground for bondage. A direct call to action: Pause the podcast and go find your army.[03:39] — Force Multipliers & Spotting Blind Spots The difference between being a target in a trench and being an unstoppable force. How trusted brothers see the hidden vulnerabilities—like deep-seated insecurities about masculinity—that you are blind to.[05:07] — The Sunlight of Accountability Defining accountability through the lens of truth. Why keeping even 1% of your battle in the dark keeps you in chains.[06:33] — The Anatomy of a Daily Check-In Moving past the weekly debrief to high-frequency consistency. Introducing the 4-question framework to keep your brotherhood razor-sharp.[10:14] — The 3 Non-Negotiable Rules of Fight Club The blueprint for a trusted unit: Be Clear (absolute honesty), Be Confidential (sacred trust), and Be Committed (iron sharpening iron).Key TakeawaysIsolation is the Breeding Ground: Every struggle with lust begins and thrives because you think you are alone in that room or with your phone. Freedom cannot grow in the dark; it requires public exposure to trusted allies.Pride is the Ultimate Chainsmith: The ego convinces you that asking for help is an admission of weakness. In reality, admitting you cannot do it alone is the exact moment the enemy loses his leverage over you.The "Force Multiplier" Effect: A single soldier standing alone in a trench is just a target. When you link arms with a fight club, you transform from a passive target into an offensive military force that can fight back and win.Vulnerabilities Drive the Vice: Lust is rarely just about a tempting image or a passing thought; it is fueled by unaddressed emotions like stress, anxiety, or deep insecurities regarding your masculinity.Lies by Omission are Links in the Chain: Withholding the parts of your battle that you think are "too weird" or shameful ensures you stay in bondage. If your fight club doesn't know 100% of the truth, they can only help 0% of the problem.

Subscribe to our YouTube channel On our political radar this week… Donald Trump says he's getting bored with his war, doesn't care about the mid-terms … but is laser focused on what matters: his reflecting pond renovation, diverting money from national parks for his D.C. cleanup, the Arc ‘d Trump, taking over DC golf courses, the UFC version of the ancient gladiator battles to the death, and reminding us daily that he's passed a dementia screening test four times. His latest middle finger to the nation: suggesting that the Las Vegas-style Fight Club arena on what used to be the White House lawn become a permanent part of the landscape. Vegas has the Dome and Elvis Wedding chapel; the home of Presidents, if Trump has his way, will have its own dome and a massive wedding reception hall. And it's being reported that Trump is looting money from National Parks maintenance to pay for his July 4 fireworks show, the Reflecting Pool, a White House helipad and DC cleanup projects. He'll burn up 1.6-million dollars blowing up stuff on the 4th … even as he burns up billions every week blowing up stuff in Iran. In an administration populated by the absolutely worst cabinet in American history, Trump manages to lower the bar even further with the appointment of Michigander housing developer and certified Trump suck-up Bill Pulte as acting Director of National Intelligence, a job for which he has absolutely no qualifications. Actors Matt Damon and John Krasinski … a.k.a. Jason Bourne and Jack Ryan … would be more qualified. Adding the the Bad Cabinet Blues: the new director of Homeland Security, Markwayne Mullins, says as far as he's concerned following court orders is optional. Michigan Democrats are optimistic after making the case to the national party that Michigan should be in the first tier of 2028 presidential primaries. The state party has also rejected appeals related to vote counting in the April endorsement convention. Will the dispute extend to the official nominating convention in August? The state House has turned down a Republican-drafted constitutional amendment which would make all university boards and the State Board of Education gubernatorial appointed bodies instead of elected. Speaker Matt Hall didn't bother to talk with Democrats before putting the measure up for a vote. With a two-thirds vote needed to pass, it didn't come close to adoption, but could be revived for the November election. We are just 50 days away from the start of early voting in Michigan. The four races to watch: the 3-way Republican contest for the opportunity to battle Jocelyn Benson for Governor; the 3-way Democratic contest to battle Mike Rogers for the U.S. Senate; and multi-candidate Democratic primaries for Congressional seats based in Lansing and Macomb County. Speculation has begun over who may be in the running for President of Michigan State University in the wake of last week's departure of Kevin Guskiewicz. Will it be a relatively unknown academic, or a high-powered retired politician? There's precedent for both routes…although the highest profile possibility, Gretchen Whitmer, has already announced she is not interested in the gig. Republicans in Congress are starting to push back on Trump outrages – the House passing a measure to stop Trump's Middle East war, Senators stripping the one-billion-dollar subsidy for his ballroom from the DHS budget, and both chambers primed to outlaw efforts to revive the $1.8-billion slush fund for rewarding January 6 rioters and other Trump fans. It's interesting that congressional Republicans only started to show signs of life after candidate filing deadlines. Michigan Congressman Tom Barrett, who no longer faces the possibility of a primary challenge, was one of four Republicans voting this week to end the Iran War. The political threat to non-compliant Republicans for pushing back against Great Leader comes as doubts about Trump's mental and physical health grow. His third physical examination since taking office coupled with an incomplete post-exam report on what the doctors learned, his reduced work schedule, the cankles and bruising – have increased the speculation. It sure looks like both his political and mental powers are in decline. This week's best political giggle: an AI doctored photo of Senate candidate Mike Rogers, turning his relatively fit 63-year-old body into a modern-day Charles Atlas. What the heck – it's easier than hours in the gym, or even going on Ozempic. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Introducing our new podcast!
