Podcasts about Frum

Katie sits down with David Frum, Atlantic writer and host of an eponymous podcast, to take stock of a dizzying news cycle: a government shutdown framed around false claims about healthcare for immigrants, a surreal Quantico meeting where military leaders were treated as political props, and Donald Trump’s vow to punish his opponents through prosecutions. Frum explains how the U.S. budgeting system turned into a "failure machine,” what’s happening to Supreme Court neutrality, and what it means when Trump spreads vulgar AI videos of his opponents. Frum’s bottom line? This might be a fire hose of news, but it's our duty as citizens to keep up, not tune out.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Nach der Ermordung von Charlie Kirk gab Präsident Trump den „radikalen Linken“ die Schuld – und goss damit Öl ins Feuer, statt zu Einheit und Ruhe aufzurufen. Vizepräsident Vance und Berater Stephen Miller warnten, sie würden diejenigen auf der linken Seite, die zu gewalttätiger Rhetorik greifen, „zur Strecke bringen“. Kirks Witwe warnte vor dem, „was bald entfesselt werden wird“. Zahlreiche Menschen verloren ihren Job, weil sie Beiträge gepostet hatten, die Kirks Tod zu feiern schienen.Kurz darauf kam ein weiterer Schlag. Jimmy Kimmel, Komiker und Moderator einer Late-Night-Show, wird „auf unbestimmte Zeit“ aus dem Programm genommen. Die Reaktion war schnell und laut: Das sei ein klarer Verstoß gegen den Ersten Verfassungszusatz. Doch Trump legte nach, lobte die Entscheidung, drängte andere Sender, ihre Late-Night-Shows abzusetzen – und schlug vor, dass auch alle anderen, die ihn kritisieren, ihren Job verlieren sollten.Wir sprechen über die aktuelle Einschränkung der Meinungsfreiheit in Amerika, über die Zunahme gewalttätiger Rhetorik im Netz und die Reaktionen auf beiden Seiten.Credits:Theme Music:  Reha Omayer, HamburgFind us on:Facebook: AmerikaUebersetztTwitter: @AUbersetztContact us:amerikauebersetzt@gmail.com

John welcomes New York Times scribe Robert Draper and Atlantic staff writer and podcast host David Frum to discuss the political reverberations from the fatal shooting of right-wing activist Charlie Kirk. Draper joins the show from Kirk's home base in Arizona, and assesses the impact of the shooting on those who revered him in the MAGA movement and the future of the organization he founded, Turning Point USA. Meanwhile, Frum takes stock of how the Trump administration is moving aggressively to advance its broader agenda in the wake of Kirk's assassination, and of FBI Director Kash Patel's contentious back-to-back appearances before oversight committees in the Senate and House this week.

Some words of encouragement as we enter into Rosh Hashana and Yom Kippur 

The United Nations General Assembly gets to work this week, beginning its 80th anniversary session on Sept. 9. And as the ambassadors gather in New York, there will be a new pair of Canadian eyes keeping tabs on how the world's parliament lives up to its mandate of equitably improving human rights, especially on the Israel-Palestine file. Former senator Linda Frum has been appointed the new chair of UN Watch, a Geneva-based non-governmental organization that has, for decades, exposed an alleged anti-Israel bias on the global stage. In the last few years, UN Watch has directed its lens in particular toward the United Nations Relief and Works Agency, UNRWA, which employed at least nine staffers who were possibly involved with the Oct. 7 Hamas attack on Israel—and who were subsequently fired in the summer of 2024. Frum steps onto the stage at what could be a pivotal moment in Middle Eastern history. The UN will bring world leaders together in a few weeks for a summit wherein many countries, including Canada, have signalled they will formally recognize Palestinian statehood. It's a move Frum feels is “very dangerous” for the Jewish community here, as it will raise temperatures at home and put “a target on the back of every Jewish Canadian citizen.” On today's episode of The CJN's North Star podcast, host Ellin Bessner is joined by both Linda Frum and UN Watch's executive director, Hillel Neuer, a Canadian lawyer, to take a look ahead at the UN's fall agenda and what's at stake.

Behold the journey of Ken Gangbar, a sculptor whose hands shape stone and spirit alike. In this intimate interview, Ken unveils his heart, tracing the path he forged after October 7th, a pilgrimage into the depths of Judaism, a quest to fortify his soul as a Jew. Once a fierce activist against Apartheid in South Africa, he now strides through Toronto's streets, a kippah crowning his head, tearing down venomous anti-Semitic flyers. In their place, he pins portraits of hostages, a quiet rebellion of hope. When the city's decree sought to silence his defiance, Ken wove yellow ribbons into the urban tapestry, a symbol of resilience undeterred. Ken, whose sculptures grace homes, businesses, and corners of the world, has glimpsed the neshama, the eternal soul within his art, a divine spark that always flickered beneath the surface. What once flowed from intuition now pulses with the sacred, entwined with God, Torah, and the Jewish people, woven into the rhythm of his days. His creations, once born of instinct, now breathe with a celestial essence, as if whispering, “It was always there.” Humble and eloquent, Ken speaks with tender reverence of his family, his people, Israel, and the Torah's timeless wisdom. His words, like his sculptures, carve a space for reflection and inspiration. Watch this interview, let it linger in your heart, and share its light.

Lenny's Tanach Classes. https://jewishpodcasts.fm/lennygoldbergtanachclasses The Jewish Truth Bomb 01SEPT2025 - PODCAST

David Frum joins Joanna Coles to unpack the jaw-dropping scale of Donald Trump's presidential profiteering—from the $400 million Qatari plane to his so-called ‘presidential library' money funnel. Frum, Senior Editor of The Atlantic and host of the new podcast The David Frum Show, explains how Trump turned the presidential office into a personal ATM—and why the Republican party let him. He breaks down why Trump's grift dwarfs anything in U.S. history, how social media fuels both the scam and the silence, and why the real question isn't what Trump will do next, but what we'll tolerate.
