For decades, free trade was treated as an unquestioned good—an engine of prosperity and cooperation. But today, leaders from Washington to Beijing are rethinking trade as something very different: a tool of power.In this episode, we dive into new research with Harvard's David Yang that asks: how do trade relationships actually give countries leverage over one another? Why might exports matter more than imports when it comes to power? And how do tariffs, subsidies, and industrial policy reshape not just economies, but the global order itself?We explore what this means for U.S.–China rivalry, Trump's tariffs, Germany's dependence on Russian oil, and why trade power may sometimes matter as much as military power.

In this episode of Right on Radio, host Jeff breaks down a fast-moving, complex set of stories that connect global geopolitics, high-profile rallies, and a charged domestic response to the assassination of conservative commentator Charlie Kirk. Expect a mix of news clips, analysis, and spiritual framing as Jeff ties together developments from Brussels to London to Washington, D.C. The episode opens with a sponsor message from EMP Shield and a practical reminder about readiness. From there Jeff moves to the international stage: he plays and analyses a clip from European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen about “battle lines” being drawn, examines NATO and energy leverage amid tensions with Russia, and discusses remarks from Netanyahu and a strong Saudi response to Israeli strikes. Jeff also reviews the 250-member U.S. congressional delegation in Israel and commentary about U.S.–Israel ties. Turning to London, Jeff covers a mass protest headlined by Tommy Robinson and a notable speech by Elon Musk on migration, free speech, and government responsibility. He discusses how Musk's remarks reflect wider Western anxieties about immigration, crime, and national identity and considers how those themes are being amplified globally. On the U.S. domestic front Jeff plays and critiques clips from J.D. Vance and Stephen Miller on dismantling violent left-wing networks and carrying Charlie Kirk's mission forward. He reviews the Vice President's televised appeal to civic action — including urging listeners to call out those who celebrate political violence — and Attorney General Pam Bondi's statements about targeting hate speech and university responses. Jeff examines the legal, ethical, and social implications of doxxing, employer pressure, and government pushback against groups labeled as domestic threats. The show surveys mainstream punditry (including Jesse Watters and others) urging social and financial ostracism for those deemed celebratory of political violence, explores media conditioning and the narrative of “dark to false light,” and plays a Joe Rogan/Dave Smith clip about U.S.–Israel relations and public perception. Jeff flags reporting on trans activists, alleged “trans armies,” and broader narratives used to mobilize different constituencies. Jeff places many of these events in a spiritual frame — describing the conflict as a battle of spirits that manifests in political and social upheaval — and warns of accelerating instability: government crises in multiple countries, talk of retaliatory strikes, and the specter of broader conflict. He connects these themes to practical preparedness (EMP protection, health supplements) and personal faith. Guests and clips featured or discussed include Ursula von der Leyen, Elon Musk, J.D. Vance, Stephen Miller, Vice Presidential remarks, Attorney General Pam Bondi, Benjamin Netanyahu, Marco Rubio, Mohammed bin Salman, Joe Rogan/Dave Smith, and references to Tommy Robinson and Charlie Kirk. Key takeaways: the West is facing rapid geopolitical and cultural realignments, political leaders are publicly shifting toward more aggressive domestic and foreign stances, and ordinary citizens are being asked to choose sides — with spiritual, practical, and civic consequences. Jeff closes by urging listeners to stay informed, consider preparedness measures, engage civically and spiritually, and tune in for a planned Podbean live with John for further discussion.

CannCon and Ghost break down the latest twists in the Charlie Kirk assassination investigation, from FBI missteps and media narratives to questions about Tyler Robinson's role and possible networks behind him. They tackle the rise of cancel culture within the movement, warning against hypocrisy as some now cheer tactics they once condemned. Beyond domestic turmoil, the hosts turn to global power plays: Trump's negotiations with China over TikTok, nuclear power deals with the UK, and the deepening divide in U.S. politics as Biden's administration funnels billions to partisan nonprofits. From the strange emergence of armed Marxist groups in Utah to revelations about vaccine-linked pediatric deaths and Secret Service lapses, the episode captures a movement grappling with grief, mistrust, and the larger battle for sovereignty. CannCon and Ghost remind listeners to stay grounded, resist manipulation, and keep their eyes on the long game.
David Stryzewski and Kerry Lutz dive into the surge in gold and silver, driven by inflation, central bank buying, and waning trust in U.S. Treasuries.

They also explore geopolitical risks, Mexico's mining landscape, cartel conflicts, and the prospect of U.S. military action by 2025. The conversation expands to governance, community safety, and how AI may reshape leadership and decision-making in the years ahead.

BOOK TITLE: The Decisive Decade: American Grand Strategy for Triumph over China AUTHOR: Jonathan DT Ward HEADLINE: China's Response to Geographical Weakness: Expansionism and Global Power Projection China has historically faced geographical weaknesses, lacking natural borders in regions like the Tibetan Plateau, Mongolian and Xinjiang Deserts, and the South China Sea. To address this, China, under Xi Jinping, is converting its global economic power into military power, initially focused on the Indo-Pacific. Their strategy includes the Belt and Road Initiative to consolidate economic geography across Eurasia and Africa, projecting military power globally, which defines an expansionist approach. 1950S PEKING UNIVERSITY

In this fiery episode of Geopolitics with Ghost, host Gordon McCormick unpacks a whirlwind of breaking stories shaping the global stage. Ghost dives into the FBI raid on John Bolton's home over classified documents, Trump's sharp jabs at his former advisor, and the deeper strategy behind Bolton's role as a “neocon pawn.” From Trump's Oval Office announcement about hosting the 2026 FIFA World Cup to the deployment of JAG officers in D.C., the conversation highlights the intersection of law, politics, and optics in real time. Ghost also dissects Tulsi Gabbard's bold move to cut intelligence staffing and revoke clearances, Keith Kellogg's defense of Trump's diplomacy with Putin, and the unraveling of Russiagate as top CIA analysts face the axe. The episode spans continents, covering Mali's embrace of Russia, Netanyahu's push to annex Gaza, Nord Stream sabotage arrests in Italy, and Venezuela's clash with U.S. drug war policy. With wit, salt, and hard-hitting analysis, Ghost connects the dots across global conflicts, intelligence power plays, and the shifting balance of sovereignty.

In Part 2 of this explosive two-part series, Michael Jaco and Juan O Savin pull back the curtain on the inner workings of the Trump administration, global politics, and covert operations shaping our world today. Juan breaks down why certain moves couldn't be made during Trump's first term, exposing the deep resistance from embedded bureaucrats and compromised appointees. He shares chilling accounts of Trump's encounters with global leaders — from tense meetings with South Africa's president to Zelensky's Oval Office visit — and reveals the hidden hand behind orchestrated disasters, election fraud in both the U.S. and South Africa, and the infiltration of American intelligence agencies. Together, Michael and Juan connect the dots between figures like Obama, Clinton, and the global elite, showing how their agendas tie into wars, corruption, and the push for control. More importantly, they uncover Trump's ultimate mission: to dismantle the machinery of endless war and end atrocities worldwide.

On "The Tara Show," the host provides a comprehensive look at what he sees as the critical challenges facing the United States, from domestic policy to international relations. The show features an extensive discussion of the president's federal crime crackdown in Washington, D.C., which the host frames as "Liberation Day." He argues that the city's high crime rates are not accidental but a result of deliberate "Marxist" policies that have been covered up through the manipulation of crime statistics by D.C. officials. The host supports this claim with an interview clip from the head of the D.C. Police Union, who expresses support for the federal intervention. The show extends this critique to other Democrat-run cities and international leaders, linking their policies to a broader ideological agenda. The show also explores the theme of political and economic deception, praising the president's appointment of Dr. E.J. Antoni to the Bureau of Labor Statistics as a move to restore integrity to economic data that the host alleges was previously fabricated for political purposes. He also discusses the ongoing trade war with China, attributing the U.S.'s vulnerability to a long-standing dependence on Chinese rare earth minerals. The host praises the administration's efforts to regain energy independence by reviving domestic coal projects. Throughout the show, the host repeatedly criticizes Republican Senate leadership, specifically Senator John Thune, for blocking the president's appointments, which he describes as a political "hostage situation." The episode ultimately frames these issues as a struggle for America's future, where political and economic honesty are pitted against a globalist, "Marxist" agenda.
Jon Herold breaks down a whirlwind Monday as Donald Trump declares “Liberation Day” in Washington, D.C., seizing control of the Metropolitan Police and deploying the National Guard under the Home Rule Act to restore law and order. He examines parallels to past federal interventions, speculates on potential election-related motives, and explores theories from crime reduction to deeper strategic plays. The show covers Kash Patel's law enforcement stats, the backlash from former FBI officials, and Judge Engelmeyer's rejection of the DOJ's bid to unseal Ghislaine Maxwell grand jury transcripts. Jon also highlights a sweeping federal court hack potentially exposing sensitive case data, the Intel CEO's controversial ties to Chinese firms, and the brewing intrigue around Trump's upcoming peace summit with Vladimir Putin in Alaska, with Zelensky possibly sidelined. From cartel threats to reclassifying marijuana and the geopolitics of Ukraine, Herold connects the dots on a day heavy with both domestic crackdowns and international maneuvering.

With his signature mix of analysis, historical context, and unfiltered commentary, Ghost connects the dots between domestic politics and global strategy, showing how each plays into the other on the world stage.

For half a century, the Cold War defined global politics. Contested by two superpowers with opposing ideologies and interests, it touched nearly every part of the globe. It threatened nuclear war, and brought incalculable devastation to its battlefields – from Korea to Vietnam to Afghanistan and beyond. Could all the tension and violence have been avoided? Did the U.S. triumph or did the Soviet Union surrender? Where can we find Cold War continuities as the world unravels today? In this episode, historians Vladislav Zubok and Sergey Radchenko address these questions, which remain as relevant as ever, 30 years after the end of the Cold War. This episode was inspired by Zubok's new book (see below). Recommended reading: The World of the Cold War, 1945-1991 by Vladislav Zubok (2025) To Run the World: The Kremlin's Cold War Bid for Global Power by Sergey Radchenko (2024) Zubok teaches history at the London School of Economics and Political Science. Radchenko teaches history at Johns Hopkins School of Advanced International Studies. They were born in the Soviet Union.
A bold, unapologetic breakdown of how Donald Trump's economic and foreign policy strategies defied expert predictions and rewrote global norms. From the media's dire warnings about tariffs and inflation to the reality of booming stock markets and record-setting trade deals, the narrative challenges the mainstream consensus. The segments delve into Trump's overhaul of U.S.-Europe trade relations, NATO funding, and military accountability, while exposing corruption concerns in Ukraine and the shifting financial burden to the European Union. Through it all, the transcripts highlight the deep disconnect between political elites, media narratives, and unfolding geopolitical realities.

In this information-packed Monday episode, Jon Herold dives into the unfolding impact of Trump's trade deals, the Durham report, and the expanding reach of the DOJ's Strike Force. He kicks off with Trump's $750 billion energy agreement with the EU, a $600 billion investment pledge, and baseline tariffs reshaping global commerce. The show digs into Trump's controversial comments on potentially pardoning Ghislaine Maxwell, the implications of her reported cooperation, and Trump's administration reclaiming control over child trafficking operations. Herold walks through the Durham report's rationale for not pursuing prosecutions, classified documents, lack of provable intent, and how those hurdles may now be surmountable through new declassifications. He explores speculation around the Mar-a-Lago raid, whether the CIA hid key reports, and how Devin Nunes and Ezra Cohen-Watnick may know more than they let on. From Trump ending an obscure war between Cambodia and Thailand, to U.S. investments in AI chip manufacturing and critical minerals, to the collapse of Media Matters, the episode zooms out to connect the dots across politics, media, finance, and global power shifts. Plus, a tribute to Badlands supporter CraneOp rounds out the hour with heart.

What would it feel like To Run the World? The Soviet rulers spent the Cold War trying desperately to find out. In To Run The World: The Kremlin's Cold War Bid for Global Power, Sergey Radchenko provides an unprecedented deep dive into the psychology of the Kremlin's decision-making. He reveals how the Soviet struggle with the United States and China reflected its irreconcilable ambitions as a self-proclaimed superpower and the leader of global revolution. This tension drove Soviet policies from Stalin's postwar scramble for territory to Khrushchev's reckless overseas adventurism and nuclear brinksmanship, Brezhnev's jockeying for influence in the third world, and Gorbachev's failed attempts to reinvent Moscow's claims to greatness. Perennial insecurities, delusions of grandeur, and desire for recognition propelled Moscow on a headlong quest for global power, with dire consequences and painful legacies that continue to shape our world. Sergey Radchenko is the Wilson E. Schmidt Distinguished Professor at the Johns Hopkins School of Advanced International Studies. He has written extensively on the Cold War, nuclear history, and on Russian and Chinese foreign and security policies. He has served as a Global Fellow and a Public Policy Fellow at the Woodrow Wilson Centre and as the Zi Jiang Distinguished Professor at East China Normal University (Shanghai). Professor Radchenko's books include To Run the World: the Kremlin's Cold War Bid for Global Power (Cambridge UP, forthcoming in 2024), Two Suns in the Heavens: the Sino-Soviet Struggle for Supremacy (Wilson Center Press & Stanford UP, 2009), and Unwanted Visionaries: the Soviet Failure in Asia (Oxford UP, 2014). Professor Radchenko is a native of Sakhalin Island, Russia, was educated in the US, Hong Kong, and the UK, where he received his PhD in 2005 (LSE). Before he joined SAIS, Professor Radchenko worked and lived in Mongolia, China, and Wales. Sidney Michelini is a post-doctoral researcher working on Ecology, Climate, and Violence at the Peace Research Institute of Frankfurt (PRIF).

In this episode of The PDB Situation Report: The war between Israel and Iran is over—but behind the scenes, it was Israel's intelligence services that helped deliver the decisive edge. Former Mossad official Oded Ailam joins us to explain how Israeli espionage shaped the outcome. While the weapons of war grabbed headlines, the end of the conflict came through diplomacy, pressure, and negotiation. Stephen Yates from The Heritage Foundation breaks down how the Trump administration ended the war—and what that reveals about America's global power today.

Has Israel just become the undisputed power in the Middle East? After a lightning-fast 12-day conflict, oil prices fell instead of spiking, Iran backed off with symbolic missile strikes (after giving the U.S. a heads-up), and Russia is suddenly too nostalgic about its expats in Tel Aviv to pick a side. We unpack how this war, short, sharp, and stunning, shifted the entire balance of power in the region. Why didn't the Strait of Hormuz crisis materialise? Why are markets pricing in peace while Gaza burns? And what does this all mean for Iran's regime, which now looks more cornered than combative? We also take a surprising detour through France, exploring how language is shaped by power, and why the poor speak more languages than the rich. Is this the start of a new Middle East? Or just the next chapter in a permanent struggle? Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
The Cyrus Accord and the Future of the New World Order Welcome to a riveting episode of Right On Radio where we delve into the complex interplay of prophecy, politics, and global power dynamics. Join us as we kick off this enlightening discussion with Jeff and special guest John Brisson from "We've Read the Documents," available on Substack and YouTube. John shares his insights on the attempted acceleration of prophecy by world powers, suggesting that a malevolent force is pushing to fulfill prophecy on their timeline. We extend the discourse with thought-provoking discussions about the political chess game involving figures like RFK Jr., who, while advocating for superficial health improvements, are surreptitiously promoting transhumanism and surveillance through wearables and digital currencies. The conversation unveils troubling connections and agendas concealed from the public eye, urging listeners to question the apparent narratives provided by political elites. Dive into compelling narratives around the geopolitical tensions between Iran, Israel, and the USA, as our hosts consider the historical underpinnings of these conflicts, speculating on economic motivations and potential moves towards a new world order. Revelations about Iran's involvement in the global financial system and the possible implementation of digital currencies highlight the march towards a unified control system, potentially heralding a one-world currency propounded by biblical prophecy. Throughout this enlightening episode, Jeff and John examine the role of faith versus deception in this turbulent world, shedding light on potential false flags and deceptions that may lead many astray, but also rallying believers to stand firm in their faith and discernment. The episode concludes with personal anecdotes and a reminder of the underlying spiritual battle, encouraging a return to foundational Christian values in the face of uncertainty.

Tensions with Iran reach a breaking point as bizarre propaganda meets deadly serious threats. Tara Servatius breaks down Iran's outlandish claim that Israel is deploying “ghosts, demons, and witches” to assassinate Iranian leaders, while U.S. officials weigh surgical military strikes to neutralize nuclear facilities. Former Assistant Secretary of State Brian Hook outlines Trump's strategic options — including joint Israeli strikes and devastating bunker-buster bombing campaigns. Meanwhile, Tara and Lisa dive deep into geopolitical power dynamics, calling out misplaced U.S. focus on Russia while China and Iran menace the globe. This pivotal conversation challenges conventional narratives, explores military history in real time, and warns of the high stakes if America fails to act with resolve.

At the end of ww1, the vast but ailing Russian empire collapsed. What followed was regicide, civil war and famine. But just a generation later, the world had changed. Russia, now part of the Soviet Union found itself uniquely positioned to itself on the global scene in a way it had done before. In this episode I speak with Russian born historian Sergey Rachenko, he Wilson E. Schmidt Distinguished Professor at the Henry A. Kissinger Center for Global Affairs about his groundbreaking book To Run the World: The Kremlin's Cold War Bid for Global Power.
