History was made five years ago when Israel, the United Arab Emirates and Bahrain sat down together to sign the Abraham Accords, and despite the ongoing war in Gaza, the agreement remains strong. This happened with American leadership pushing negotiations to get Arab nations to embrace peace with Israel. Now, many want to see an expansion of the accords to solidify a larger group of nations who could be partnered in trade and common good. FOX's Eben Brown speaks with Robert Greenway, the former president of the Abraham Accords Institute and Director of the Allison Center for National Security at The Heritage Foundation, who explains the key principles of the accords that have preserved these partnerships.

It seems like only yesterday that the world was thrown into stupidity almost overnight with the launch of the COVID-19 psychological operation in March 2020. The perpetrators still haven't faced justice, they all have book deals and legal immunity. Before the plebs could even begin to process what was happening to their rights in the wake of a deadly disease with a 99.98% survivability rate, they got smacked in the face with race riots and looted Targets to honor the legacy of George Floyd. Is another Summer of Love in America's near future? That depends on what other event they are seeking to distract the general public from focusing on.

Five years later, Victor Davis Hanson takes a hard look at real aftermath of Floyd's death on this episode of “Victor Davis Hanson: In His Own Words.” “ There was $2 billion in damage. There was a police precinct burned to the ground, in Minneapolis. There was a federal courthouse that was burned. There was a historic St. John's Church—across from the White House—that was torched. A mob tried to go into the White House grounds and reach the president.” “And the country now is learning it's lessons. It's trying to find a sober solution. A reaction.

We're reviewing five years of Minneapolis politics since George Floyd's murder with guest D.A. Bullock. We pick apart the records of two very different police chiefs - Medaria Arradondo and Brian O'Hara. We talk about the backlash to the backlash: fear politics is bigger than ever in 2025. Minneapolis has two PACs aligned with Mayor Frey using crime as a wedge to get us to vote for candidates who reject the idea of any renter and worker protections. John tells the story of how this political agitation led to the most Minneapolis thing he's ever witnessed: seeing Walter Mondale's son get shoved by a rich dick at the Ward 7 DFL Convention. We get D.A.'s thoughts on why we need a new mayor; what he thinks of candidates DeWayne Davis and Omar Fateh; we discuss how remarkable it is that Emily Koski was tagged with being too DSA before being run out of the race; and we find out what bothers D.A. about local news coverage. Most importantly, we learn what D.A. is an acronym for.Unfortunately this episode was recorded before Chief Brian O'Hara made comments about the ‘bourgeois liberal mentality' in Minneapolis. Imagine the fun we could've had with that.Watch: https://youtube.com/wedgeliveJoin the conversation: https://bsky.app/profile/wedge.liveSupport the show: https://patreon.com/wedgeliveWedge LIVE theme song by Anthony Kasper x LaFontsee
Five years ago, schools shut down for the COVID-19 pandemic. Schooling was remote for the rest of the year, and many schools would remain remote for much of the following year. Europe took a different approach. In many European countries, schools reopened that first pandemic spring, only weeks after closing. Schools, officials determined, were safe […]

Five years since COVID upended daily life, listeners weigh in on the biggest societal changes brought on by the pandemic.
Five years ago, the World Health Organization declared COVID-19 a pandemic. Since then, there have been lockdowns, a recession, two presidential elections and more than a million American lives lost from the disease. In many ways, life feels like it's back to normal, but David Wallace-Wells, a writer for The New York Times, argues that the pandemic still has a grip on American life, from our faith in public health institutions to the way consumers feel about the economy. On the show today, Wallace-Wells walks us through how Americans neglected to process the seismic impact of the pandemic in the rush to recover from it, and how it’s left us more self-interested and less empathetic. Plus, how this can help explain disgruntled consumers and a growing appetite for risk-taking in the economy. Then, we’ll get into how responses to public health emergencies have shifted to the realm of the private sector. And, we’ll hear listeners’ reflections on the COVID-19 pandemic, five years on. Here’s everything we talked about today: “Opinion | How Covid Remade Our America, Five Years Later” from The New York Times “30 Charts That Show How Covid Changed Everything in March 2020” from The New York Times “Gyms, pets and takeout: How the pandemic has shifted daily life” from The Washington Post “It’s Not the Economy.
