Welcome to The Times of Israel's Daily Briefing, your 20-minute audio update on what's happening in Israel, the Middle East and the Jewish world. Editor David Horovitz joins host Amanda Borschel-Dan for today's episode. During the course of the G7 summit of global leaders in France on Tuesday, US President Donald Trump said that Syria should replace Israel in the fight against Lebanon’s Hezbollah. He argued that the Jewish state’s war on the Iran-backed terror group has been too prolonged and indiscriminate, adding that Israel would have been “blown off the face of the earth” if not for him. Horovitz unpacks the multilayered concerns plaguing Israel in the wake of Trump's statements. The US-Iran memorandum of understanding, expected to be signed at an in-person gathering on Friday, reportedly provides for a full cessation of hostilities by Iran, the United States and their allies — including in Lebanon, where Israel has been battling Tehran’s proxy Hezbollah. This comes as Israel and Lebanon are nearing a US-mediated lasting ceasefire agreement, according to a Tuesday report. If the IDF were to withdraw from southern Lebanon, are Lebanese forces really strong enough to face Hezbollah? Finance Minister Bezalel Smotrich claimed on Tuesday to have “abolished” components of the 1997 Hebron agreement that gave the Palestinian municipal council of Hebron authority over planning, zoning and construction in the H2 zone of the West Bank city, where the Jewish settlement of Hebron is located along with the Tomb of the Patriarchs. Can this effort be isolated from the looming elections? Horovitz weighs in on this and the current ultra-Orthodox move in the Knesset to pass Basic Law: Torah Study.

[00:30] America Surrenders to Iran and Betrays Israel (42 minutes) Leaked text of an apparent draft of the U.S.-Iran memorandum of understanding reveals massive U.S. concessions in exchange for Iran playing nice. The MOU is essentially a 60-day ceasefire to give the two countries time to formulate a real deal. Meanwhile, President Donald Trump has been tearing into Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu for striking at Hezbollah, an internationally recognized terrorist organization. [42:30] Herbert W. Armstrong's Prayer Rock (13 minutes)

Janice and Rudyard unpack the latest details of the emerging memorandum of understanding between Iran and Israel, examining its proposed $300 billion financing package and the sweeping rollback of sanctions on Iran's oil and financial sectors. They question the agreement's lack of concrete timelines and verification mechanisms—particularly around nuclear inspections—and argue that looming energy pressures helped drive both sides to the negotiating table. The deal, just 14 points long, is light on details and leaves much open to interpretation, most notably regarding the war between Israel and Hezbollah in Lebanon. How is it being received by Iran's hardliners? And will the perception in the U.S. that it represents a major capitulation by Trump affect how the GOP fares in November's midterm elections?Become a Munk Donor ($50 annually) to get 72-hour advanced access to the full length editions of Friday Focus and Munk Dialogues.

Host Jeff opens the June 17, 2026 episode with a personal and prophetic tone, laying out two central subjects for the broadcast: the UFC Freedom 250 spectacle and the geopolitical consequences of the Iran conflict. He frames much of the episode through a religious lens—inviting listeners to pick between two spiritual paths—and plays the recurring show segment "Word on Word," where two Bible passages are presented and discussed. Jeff also shares a vivid personal anecdote about hearing shofar-like sounds that unsettled his dog and wife as an eerie prelude to the program. The show examines a viral post that cast the UFC event as more than a sporting spectacle—claiming it functioned as a public ceremony under Admiralty Law to restore American sovereignty. Jeff summarizes the post's timeline (from an appeal to return to God on April 18 through a National Prayer Day, a royal visit, Federal Reserve leadership changes, and the UFC event) and weighs which elements contain truth, which are symbolic, and which look staged. He discusses symbolic details listeners flagged—gold-fringed flags, the beehive emblem tied to Masonic imagery, and the Military District of Washington reference during the colors presentation. Jeff breaks down the on-the-ground happenings at the UFC: the rain delay commentators called a miraculous diversion, the viral fighter moment that ended with a controversial claim about Michelle Obama, the alleged Donald Trump Jr. DM controversy with commentator Daniel Cormier, and Joe Rogan's role in handling the mic. He argues the event functioned as a powerful "bread and circus" that rallied patriotic messaging while the political and legal transition narratives circulated in online patriot circles. Switching to foreign policy, Jeff provides a narrative of recent U.S.-Iran kinetic actions beginning February 28, assessing them as part of a larger banking and strategic campaign. He traces military operations that degraded Iran's capabilities, the closure of the Strait of Hormuz during "Operation Freedom," and how U.S. energy and re-industrialization gains factor into the strategic picture. Jeff situates Israel's cooperation, Hezbollah's role, and the wider alignment of Russia, China, India, and Iran within an eschatological framework—arguing the current moves are reshaping alliances and could presage larger conflicts tied to end-times prophecy. Throughout the episode Jeff mixes analysis with pointed cultural and spiritual commentary: criticisms of global elites, references to Noahide laws and Commonwealth legal trends, and concerns about ritualistic abuses and child trafficking. He acknowledges the mixing of genuine legal or geopolitical facts with conspiratorial interpretation and invites listeners to discern truth through faith. The broadcast closes with Jeff announcing a prayer meeting, sharing a personal health update that will affect his schedule, and ending the show with two songs he says complete a narrative begun by the opening track.

Alpha Warrior and Josh Reid catch their breath after one of the wildest weeks in years. Iran's civilian government just ended the war, the Strait of Hormuz reopened, sanctions are coming off, and Trump's approval rating in Israel went from positive twenty three to negative twenty three in seven days. Save Israel for last is happening in real time. Mark Levin is having a public meltdown, the APEC lobby is in panic mode, and the MOU to Israel was never released. The bombshell of the episode comes when the guys catch what Trump quietly admitted at the G7. He installed Jolani in Syria with Erdogan before he was even back in office. That confirms the takedown of Assad and the dismantling of the Iran to Hezbollah land bridge were Trump's moves, not Bibi's, and it completely shreds the controlled by Israel narrative. From there they unpack the Jay Clayton ODNI nomination and his SDNY history with Maduro, the Cartel de los Soles generals, Epstein, the Weiner laptop, and the Clinton Foundation. Plus the Tulsi report driving a national emergency on election integrity, the Hochul Medicaid fraud indictment, Newsom's California DOJ investigating his own wife, and the eight man B-52 crash at Edwards that has the Mossad telegram channels celebrating.

Episode 114 opens with a War Room clash: Rabbi Wallachie acknowledges that US and Israeli interests are diverging, but Ghost steps in to correct his claim that Hezbollah is simply the Iranian army, walking through its actual origins as a resistance movement. From there, Ghost breaks down a heated Bannon segment where Wallachie denies any Greater Israel expansion plan, a claim Ghost dismantles using Ben Gavir's own statements about expelling Lebanese civilians. At the G7 in France, Trump publicly criticizes Israel's conduct in Lebanon, suggests Syria's Jelani take over the Hezbollah fight, and reveals he was angry about the Beirut strike hours before the Iran deal was finalized. Ghost digs into the Strait of Hormuz numbers discrepancy between CENTCOM's leaked count and Bloomberg's tracker data, and explains why Trump is withholding the full 14 point memorandum until Friday. Putin and Trump's hour long birthday call gets coverage alongside Lukashenko's bombshell claim that the Vatican and Naftali Bennett deceived Putin into pulling back from Kyiv in 2022. The episode closes with Israel's political fallout: Lapid calling Netanyahu's handling an absolute failure, Smotrich and Katz refusing to be bound by the deal, and American Jewish leaders demanding the text be made public.

A memorandum of understanding to end the U.S.-Iran conflict has been signed electronically by both parties, with a formal ceremony scheduled for Friday. Iran and the U.S. will start a new round of negotiations in Switzerland to reach a final agreement after the official start of an interim deal, Iran's foreign minister said on Tuesday.

FOX's John Saucier speaks with FOX's Alex Hogan, foreign correspondent reporting from Tel Aviv, Israel, who explains where the current talks stand. Learn more about your ad choices.

This episode is presented by Create A Video – It's proving very difficult to determine whether the "deal" with Iran is a good one or a complete humiliation of America because nobody has published the document.

The FBI said Tuesday that it disrupted an attempt to attack Sunday's UFC Freedom 250 event at the White House. Court records detail an alleged plot to use small drones carrying explosives and snipers to target senior government officials and wealthy attendees. 2 people shot at Wilmington Hospital in Delaware as police search for "possible active shooter." President Trump criticized Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's handling of Israel's "minor war" against Hezbollah in Lebanon on Tuesday, voicing frustration that the parallel conflict was complicating his efforts to end the war with Iran.

“The state of Lebanon needs to have an exclusivity of arms. And definitely, Hezbollah needs to be disarmed… Disarming a group or a community is not possible by force, it's possible by conviction. You put pressure, but you cannot eliminate a whole society, a whole community. We need to have an exclusivity of arms in the hand of the state, an exclusivity of decision through a political process, pressuring Hezbollah to disarm, but getting also in parallel a full withdrawal of the Israelis from occupied Lebanese territories and a full cessation of hostilities.”Jeremy Bowen speaks to Gebran Bassil, the Lebanese politician who served as the country's Foreign Minister between 2014 and 2020.Mr. Bassil, who is from the country's Maronite Christian ethnic group, leads the right-wing Free Patriotic Movement political party. The party was founded over 30 years ago by the former President of Lebanon, Michel Aoun, who is also Bassil's father-in-law.In October 2024, a year after the Hamas-led attacks of 7 October started the current Middle East conflict, the Free Patriotic Movement party announced that it was cutting ties with Hezbollah. Bassil slammed the Iranian-backed militant group for threatening the safety and stability of Lebanon when it launched its own attacks on Israel in support of Hamas.As the conflict between Israel and Hezbollah continues in southern Lebanon, Bassil and his party are part of growing calls for the country to take a new direction.

Israel is in a strategically weakened position – and Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu will take a hard political hit if reports on the details of U.S.-Iran memorandum of understanding are accurate, Haaretz columnist Joshua Leifer said on the Haaretz Podcast. Netanyahu had been “riding high,” planning to face Israel’s upcoming elections in the fall having compensated for his failures that led to October 7 by boldly “reconfiguring the map of the Middle East, and disassembling Iran's proxy network of Hezbollah and Hamas, and taking on the Iranian regime itself,” Leifer said. The Israeli leader thought “his legacy [would] be rehabilitated by those wars. Fast forward to where we are now, and that's not the case, and he’s having to confront that,” Leifer added. “Strategically, Israel's in a terrible place, where the Iranian regime is stronger than it was, and it is now able to enforce a new kind of equation where Israeli freedom of movement is limited by the potential threat of ballistic missiles from Iran – which wasn't the case prior to October 7.” Netanyahu, Leifer said, has been “backed into a corner” on all of Israel’s fronts – Gaza, Lebanon, Syria and now Iran. He must follow Trump’s dictates and has turned Israel into “a total vassal state of the U.S.” and “Trump’s lapdog.” If he were to defy Trump, he runs the risk of losing American support, which could endanger the country even more.

Jon Herold and Zak Paine open Episode 189 with a quick detour into a viral Sasquatch video (probably AI, possibly a guy in a suit) before tackling the newly released four-page ODNI report on global bioweapons labs and what it might mean for Anthony Fauci's accountability. A short segment pulled from Candace Owens covers a theory connecting the 2022 death of a man named Mark Liedy, who allegedly stole the explosive PETN from his job, his confidant Corey Comperatore (the firefighter killed at the Trump assassination attempt in Butler), and the Hezbollah pager bombing operation. Then the main event: the gifted and talented education program, known as GATE, and its possible ties to CIA mind development research. Jon walks through demographic and physical traits reported among former participants, binaural beats and Hemi-Sync training tracing back to the Monroe Institute's Gateway Program, code-breaking and Russian language worksheets given to grade schoolers, and the story of a friend who was approached by men claiming to be FBI agents decades after his own time in the program. The episode also covers Chase Brandon, who became a CIA officer at 18, spent decades undercover, and later became Hollywood's official CIA liaison.

Ghost sits down with Clay Parikh, a Marine artillery veteran who was actually there, for the most personal episode of The Book of Trump yet. Clay walked through the same BLT headquarters building that was destroyed, donated blood to Palestinian civilians after IDF cluster bombing, and was days away from being the unit relieving the marines who died when Operation Urgent Fury redirected his ship to Grenada. Ghost and Clay trace the full arc: the PLO evacuation, the IDF's 18-year occupation and the birth of Hezbollah, the crippling rules of engagement that left sentries unable to chamber a round, and the mechanics of the truck bomb itself. The gut punch comes at the end when Ghost presents the LA Times piece confirming Mossad had foreknowledge and chose not to warn the US. Raw, emotional, and deeply relevant to everything unfolding in the Middle East today.

At the G7 summit in France, President Trump dismissed claims of $300 billion in funds to rebuild Iran on Tuesday, saying the U.S. is ‘not investing any money in Iran.' The president denied the claim twice during a bilateral meeting with the Emir of Qatar. Trump also said that he is ‘not happy with the way Israel has handled themselves with Lebanon and with Hezbollah.' The President also said he wants to focus on Ukraine, meeting with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy on the sidelines of the G7.Gas prices fell below $4 a gallon on Sunday for the first time since mid-April. The drop comes as hopes for a possible end to the war in Iran improve market sentiment. President Trump also said that the Strait of Hormuz will reopen without tolls, and that the U.S. blockade on Iran would be lifted. A formal signing ceremony is scheduled for Friday in Switzerland.Eight people are dead after an Air Force B-52 bomber crashed shortly after takeoff from Edwards Air Force Base in California. Officials at the base say the aircraft was conducting a local test flight tied to a radar modernization program. The victims included military personnel, government civilians and contractors. Investigators have not determined what caused the crash and say the review could take months.

Welcome to The Times of Israel's Daily Briefing, your 20-minute audio update on what's happening in Israel, the Middle East and the Jewish world. Military correspondent Emanuel Fabian joins host Amanda Borschel-Dan for today's episode. Defense Minister Israel Katz vowed Monday that the Israeli military will remain in southern Lebanon and warned that if Iran strikes, it will be hit “with full force,” promising that Israel will resist any pressure after the US and Iran agreed a deal to end the war that also reportedly includes a commitment to end hostilities in Lebanon. We hear about where the IDF is currently holding in southern Lebanon and the strike on Beirut that almost derailed the Iran-US memorandum of understanding last night. Late last week, senior Hezbollah commander Ali Mussa Daqduq, mastermind of a January 2007 attack that killed five US troops in Iraq, was killed in an Israeli strike in southern Lebanon, the IDF announced Sunday. Who was this terror architect and what else was he responsible for? The IDF seeks to erect, for the first time, a permanent post in an area meant to be fully controlled by the Palestinian Authority. The post is set to be built in the northern West Bank’s Jenin refugee camp. What is the purpose of this first permanent post in Area A?

President Trump just sent shockwaves through the Middle East after reportedly unloading on Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu over Israel's strike in Beirut — right as a potential U.S.-Iran peace deal may be close. According to Axios, Trump said Netanyahu has “no fing judgment,” while Fox reporting says Trump asked him, “What the f are you doing?” as the White House tries to keep the Iran deal alive.In this video, Professor Nez breaks down why Trump is furious, why the Beirut strike could threaten the deal, what this means for Israel, Iran, Hezbollah, and the wider region, and why this may be one of the most consequential foreign policy moments of Trump's presidency.Is Trump about to bring peace home — or is the deal being sabotaged before it is even signed?For free and unbiased Medicare help, dial (656) 218-0931 to speak with my trusted partner, Chapter, or go to https://askchapter.org/nez✅ Reach out to me: https://bio.site/professornez✅ ORIGINAL MADE IN U.S.A 250TH AMERICA DESIGNS: https://professornez.myspreadshop.com/✅ Check out our Official Clips Channel: https://www.youtube.com/@professornezclips▶ Support the Channel and Buy us a Coffee: https://buymeacoffee.com/professornezEducational Commentary & Original AnalysisThis channel presents educational, lecture-style analysis created by a university professor and educator.

On today's episode, we discuss Sarah's wedding weekend—from the Godfather-themed father‑daughter dance to a last‑minute ring mix‑up that required borrowing Jim's wedding band—before shifting into news and politics. The crew then breaks down Donald Trump's flag‑day birthday bash on the National Mall, highlighting the flyovers, bald eagle, and UFC fights, and using it as a springboard to talk about his new Iran deal, which reportedly requires Iran to destroy or surrender enriched uranium, open the Strait of Hormuz without charging tolls, and stop funding groups like Hezbollah in exchange for economic development and oil exports. They connect falling oil futures and gas prices to this agreement and explore how cheaper energy could ripple into food costs, especially beef, while also noting the competition from energy‑hungry AI data centers. From there, the conversation turns to Elon Musk's expanding empire—Tesla's Full Self‑Driving quirks and improvements, chip manufacturing plans to rival TSMC, SpaceX's IPO windfall for employees, and the quiet rollout of Optimus robots—as well as a candid comparison of AI tools like Grok, Perplexity, and Claude. The episode wraps up with quick hits on local issues like Ruston's “red district” street‑party problems, concerns about hawks eyeing neighborhood cats, major airline crashes, the expiration of Patriot Act Section 702, and rumors of new executive orders to tighten mail‑in ballot tracking via USPS barcode technology.

Chuck Todd opens on the surreal split-screen of a president desperate to manufacture a legacy: in the same stretch of days, Trump announced a "deal" with Iran, and hosted a UFC fight on the White House lawn. He argues the Iran deal is barely a deal at all — it's an agreement to begin a new negotiation, the diplomatic equivalent of trying to salvage a tie from a war that was always an own goal. The stated goal was to dismantle Iran's nuclear program; instead Iran never capitulated, will see roughly $24 billion in assets unfrozen along with oil export relief, and is essentially being paid off by the United States to reopen the Strait of Hormuz it closed in the first place. Chuck’s verdict is blunt: Iran didn't win the war outright, but it absolutely humiliated the United States, the deal looks far closer to an Iranian victory than an American one, it pointedly excludes Iran's proxies and effectively bails out Hezbollah, and it may actually increase Iran's incentive to pursue a nuclear weapon down the line — assuming the whole fragile arrangement doesn't simply fall apart by Friday. The biggest loser of the entire episode, Chuck argues, is Bibi Netanyahu, who alienated a generation of Democrats and thought he could manipulate Trump only to get burned, much as Trump assumed Iran would fold as easily as he believed Venezuela would. He gives Trump exactly one piece of credit — at least he knew when to fold, because the outcome could have been far worse — before pivoting to the deeper, sadder story underneath all of it: a president obsessed with celebrating himself and desperate for lasting recognition, who wants to define popular culture, slap his name on the federal government the way he does his golf courses, and who threw himself a grotesque UFC-fight birthday party on the White House lawn that's terrible politics. Finally, Chuck hops into the ToddCast Time Machine to revisit June 17th, 1994… when OJ Simpson was chased by police in his white Ford Broncos. He argues that news executives learned that sensationalized news coverage could create a large, reliable viewership… and this would change the news business forever.

He gives Trump exactly one piece of credit — at least he knew when to fold, because the outcome could have been far worse — before pivoting to the deeper, sadder story underneath all of it: a president obsessed with celebrating himself and desperate for lasting recognition, who wants to define popular culture, slap his name on the federal government the way he does his golf courses, and who threw himself a grotesque UFC-fight birthday party on the White House lawn that's terrible politics. Then, Daniel Alegre — CEO of TelevisaUnivision, the largest Spanish-language media company in the world — joins the Chuck Toddcast for a genuinely revealing conversation about the single most misunderstood bloc in American politics: the Hispanic vote. Alegre's central argument is one both parties keep failing to internalize — the Hispanic vote is now an issues vote, not a reliably Democratic one, and Latino voters have become measurably more engaged precisely as they've started shopping their vote across abortion, democracy, the border, the economy, and immigration enforcement. He's blunt about 2024: the Trump campaign communicated with Hispanic voters far more effectively than Democrats did. Alegre offers a striking data point from Texas — James Talarico outspent Jasmine Crockett 8-to-1 on Hispanic outreach and won that demographic by roughly the same margin — and notes that Ted Cruz never actually won the Hispanic vote until he put in serious, sustained effort to reach them. The tactical lessons are sharp and counterintuitive: campaigns have to communicate with Hispanics differently than the general population, white politicians attempting to speak Spanish get a mixed reception at best, and sending a Spanish-speaking surrogate in your place is actually worse than not showing up at all. The conversation digs into the rich complexity beneath the catch-all term "Hispanic." Alegre explains that political leanings differ dramatically by country of origin (the network's biggest constituencies are Mexican, Cuban, and Venezuelan), that there are significant differences between first- and second-generation Latinos and the third and fourth generation, and that in more heavily Hispanic cities many families are actively maintaining their heritage rather than assimilating — even using AI now to translate content for the genuinely different variations of Spanish across Latin American communities. He shares polling that should reshape how candidates pitch themselves: two-thirds of Hispanics say they're barely getting by, 80% are lending money to family or community, and yet over 90% still want to live the American dream — which is exactly why optimistic messaging resonates with Latinos while doom-and-gloom falls flat. Alegre addresses the perennial accusations of bias against his network (he argues it moved not to the right but to the center after the Jorge Ramos era, with a goal of providing information and letting the audience decide), reflects on Mexico electing a Jewish woman in Claudia Sheinbaum, and explains the network's massive sports footprint — it broadcasts 70% of soccer games in the U.S. and holds major World Cup rights. His closing message is one neither party can afford to ignore heading into the midterms: Hispanics are the swing vote in America now, and any campaign that treats them as a monolith — or worse, as a constituency it already owns — is going to lose them. Finally, Chuck hops into the ToddCast Time Machine to revisit June 17th, 1994… when OJ Simpson was chased by police in his white Ford Broncos.

Welcome to The Times of Israel's Daily Briefing, your 20-minute audio update on what's happening in Israel, the Middle East and the Jewish world. Diplomatic correspondent Lazar Berman joins host Amanda Borschel-Dan for today's episode. US President Donald Trump on Saturday announced that the framework for a peace deal with Iran that would end the months-long conflict was scheduled to be signed on Sunday and that the key Strait of Hormuz waterway would then be immediately “open to all.” Iran has denied the signing will take place so soon. Berman breaks down what could be part of any potential deal and assesses the feasibility of it being signed soon. As fighting between Israel and Hezbollah in south Lebanon continues, the government has instructed the Israel Defense Forces to avoid actions that could endanger the emerging deal between the US and Iran, Kan news reported Friday. Berman explores how else Israel is being restrained in light of the ongoing negotiations with Iran -- and how any deal may cement those fetters. Some international media is discussing the theory that Israel will soon turn its gaze to Syria -- where it holds a buffer zone -- and fight a proxy war there with Turkey -- which also holds territory. Berman weighs in. Check out The Times of Israel's ongoing liveblog for more updates.

In a recent interview with Alan Skorski, Dr. Jacob Agronin, a cardiology fellow, detailed the antisemitism he and other Jewish physicians face within their union — the Committee of Interns and Residents (CIR) — and explained why he felt compelled to testify before Congress. Dr. Agronin appeared before the House Subcommittee on Health, Employment, Labor, and Pensions to highlight what he described as the union's adoption of positions aligned with Hamas and Hezbollah supporters, amid broader concerns about antisemitism infiltrating healthcare — a field many expected to remain free of political and religious conflict. CIR, which represents more than 37,000 physicians and is affiliated with the Service Employees International Union (SEIU), has passed resolutions declaring Israel guilty of “apartheid” and “genocide,” endorsing the Boycott, Divestment and Sanctions (BDS) movement, and directing the union to oppose candidates who support legislation criminalizing BDS. The resolutions also reject equating antisemitism with anti-Zionism and claim that concerns over rising antisemitism are being exploited to stifle anti-Zionist organizing, according to Agronin's testimony. The union has also expressed support for figures associated with Hamas and Hezbollah, including Mahmood Khlail, a former Columbia University student targeted for deportation by the Trump administration. In his interview with Skorski, Agronin recounted noticing troubling signs about the union approximately a year ago when his hospital voted to join CIR. He described being disturbed by the organization's focus on anti-Israel positions that have nothing to do with patient care or medicine. When asked what motivated him to testify, Agronin told Skorski: “I didn't want any of this… but someone had to stand up and say something.” Agronin, a cardiology fellow at Temple University Hospital in Philadelphia, emphasized two primary concerns for Jewish doctors: being forced to pay dues to a union they did not choose that targets them and Israeli colleagues, and the politicization of medicine. He argued that CIR's resolutions align it with activists who disrupted college campuses following the Hamas-led Oct. 7, 2023, massacre in Israel. In the interview, Agronin noted that he first became aware of rising antisemitism on college campuses about 10 years ago and was surprised to see it extend into healthcare. He connected with the American Jewish Medical Association and the National Right to Work Legal Defense Fund for support before his congressional testimony. The testimony and interview come as reports of antisemitism in medical settings — including calls to exclude Israeli doctors and hostile environments for Jewish patients and providers — have increased since Oct. 7 -VIN News Watch the interview on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ni9pERXNv2Q Alan Skorski Reports 14JUNE2026 - PODCAST

This week on the Mark Levin Show, despite recent close military cooperation with Israel, President Trump's want for an Iran deal has led to significant restrictions on Israel and Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu. These include limiting it to a defensive war against thousands of Hezbollah missiles and drones, barring action near Beirut, and pulling back Israeli forces after responses. Also, our military, on the orders of Trump, hammered Iranian positions in response to the Iranian regime shooting down one of our helicopters. How much more delay and attack we will tolerate from this enemy? This is exactly what Israel and Benjamin Netanyahu did the other night when the same enemy fired 11 ballistic missiles at its civilian populations. The U.S. and Israel should both decisively beat the hell out of Iran militarily to end ongoing delays and attacks by Iran or Hezbollah that disrupt deals. There are ongoing attacks on Iran in response to the downed U.S. helicopter and Iran's delay in a deal but why was their criticism for Israel's strikes on Iran 48 hours ago, in response to 11 ballistic missiles fired at its country. Both Israel and the U.S. have every right to respond to a regime that refuses to stop their attacks. There are no moderate factions in Iran—all are radicals who won't change after 47 years—and it's time to decisively finish them off, including by arming opposition elements, to secure midterm wins and sustain the economy. We have a Memorandum of Understanding with Iran requiring another 60 days of negotiations. The full details remain unreleased and unseen, which makes premature celebration impossible. If it is done and will be signed in 48-72 hours, let's see it. The core concern is long-term enforcement, given Iran's history as a terrorist regime that has never abided by any agreement, and exists to destroy the West and non-compliant Muslims through funding groups like Hezbollah, Hamas, and the Houthis. How effective will enforcement be post-Trump presidency, especially under Democrats. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices

As war drags on across the Gulf, Israel's military campaign against Hezbollah in Lebanon is emerging as a major challenge to talks on a US-Iran deal. With Israeli elections approaching and regional uncertainty deepening, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu appears determined to weaken, if not eliminate, Hezbollah's military capabilities. But is this objective achievable, and what are the wider implications for US-Iran diplomacy, regional stability, and Israel's security? In this episode of ThePrint Worldview with Swasti, ThePrint Consulting Editor Dr Swasti Rao speaks with Amos Davidowitz, an Israeli Reserve Commander, to unpack Israel's strategic calculations, Hezbollah's resilience, and the impact of the conflict on President Trump's efforts to secure a deal with Iran. As diplomacy and military action collide, the conversation explores whether the war in Lebanon could reshape the regional balance of power and derail prospects for a broader diplomatic breakthrough.

On Thursday's Mark Levin Show, we have a Memorandum of Understanding with Iran requiring another 60 days of negotiations. The full details remain unreleased and unseen, which makes premature celebration impossible. If it is done and will be signed in 48-72 hours, let's see it. The core concern is long-term enforcement, given Iran's history as a terrorist regime that has never abided by any agreement, and exists to destroy the West and non-compliant Muslims through funding groups like Hezbollah, Hamas, and the Houthis. How effective will enforcement be post-Trump presidency, especially under Democrats. We have the enemy where we want it. We may never again. It was right to attack them, and in a few weeks' time they were on their back. We hit the brakes for 9 weeks. First the Israelis and then we went back to military action this week, and the regime was badly damaged beyond the original damage. Rather than destroy it, including arming the Iranian people, we have an MOU and future negotiations. Also, Roger Zakheim, Director of the Ronald Reagan Institute, calls in and details the lack of any trustworthy record from the Iranian regime, warning that the deal may not be worth the paper it's written on despite the U.S. having weakened Iran through Operation Epic Fury and economic blockade pressure. Any worthwhile agreement must reverse the JCPOA by demanding zero enrichment, ending the missile program, halting support for terrorist groups like Hezbollah, and ensuring open Straits. Later, Rep Jamie Raskin is already leading a plot to impeach the President if the Democrats take the House. Republicans should move to expel Jamie Raskin from the House.  If he can continue to abuse our constitutional system and undermine our electoral process (ironic, since he blames Trump and Republicans for doing so), having led every effort described above, then take the necessary steps to charge him under the expulsion clause. Finally, Rep Bryan Steil calls in to discuss his three-year investigation into potential fraud at ActBlue, particularly its weak fraud prevention standards that allow foreign funds into U.S. elections.

In his relentless pursuit of a deal with Iran, Donald Trump has now returned to military escalation, resuming combat operations and warning that the United States will seize Iran's key oil export hub on Kharg Island. This so-called moderate ceasefire signals a renewed campaign of punishing strikes on Iran until it agrees to terms set by the administration's negotiating team. As Miad explains, however, Iran's hardline is not the “leverage” Tehran believes it to be, because Iran ultimately must reopen the Strait of Hormuz for its own economic survival. But at this moment, Donald Trump has no viable partner for peace, and Iran will likely never offer such an option. As Marc and Dany point out, there is no Iranian Delcy Rodríguez, and these kinds of arrangements have expiration dates, particularly as 2028 approaches. As long as the sole measure of success in Iran is a negotiated deal, the Iranians hold the power to decide whether victory is possible. It is up to Trump to decide whether that's acceptable.Miad Maleki is a senior fellow at the Foundation for Defense of Democracies (FDD), former senior U.S. sanctions strategist and national security leader, and former associate director for the Treasury's Office of Global Targeting at the Office of Foreign Assets Control (OFAC). Miad played a central role in marshalling the Treasury Department's sanctions campaigns against the Iranian regime and its proxy groups: Hezbollah, Hamas, Iraqi Shiite militias, and the Houthis.

In this segment, the hosts dissect breaking news regarding the Trump administration's newly announced framework negotiation with Iran. Expressing deep skepticism, the commentary draws sharp parallels to Barack Obama's 2015 JCPOA, labeling the current strategy a "disastrous" mistake and a total win for Tehran. The discussion covers Iran's demands for immediate cash through temporary sanctions relief and oil sales, while the U.S. receives nothing more than a superficial agreement to hold future conversations about enriched uranium stockpiles. The hosts also look at the internal political dynamics driving this shift—pointing fingers at the influence of JD Vance and Tucker Carlson, while noting Secretary of State Marco Rubio's conspicuous focus on non-Iran issues like Cuba and Armenia. Warning of inevitable retaliation, the commentary concludes with a stark reminder: no signed piece of paper will stop the Iranian regime, and only decisive leadership removal or strategic military action can truly neutralize the threat.

On Wednesday's Mark Levin Show, there are ongoing attacks on Iran in response to the downed U.S. helicopter and Iran's delay in a deal but why was their criticism for Israel's strikes on Iran 48 hours ago, in response to 11 ballistic missiles fired at its country. Both Israel and the U.S. have every right to respond to a regime that refuses to stop their attacks. There are no moderate factions in Iran—all are radicals who won't change after 47 years—and it's time to decisively finish them off, including by arming opposition elements, to secure midterm wins and sustain the economy. Also, Iran is desperate to include Lebanon in any deal it makes with us because to do so would effectively nullify that agreement and make it impossible for Israel to take action against Hezbollah in Lebanon. This is precisely why both the Lebanese government and the Israeli government have publicly stated they do not want Iran to succeed in including Lebanon in any deal with our country. To include Lebanon in a deal with Iran would be an absolute disaster. Here are two questions no reporter has yet asked: are the policies of the brutal dictators running Turkey, Qatar, and Saudi Arabia aligned with our interests? If not, why are they never publicly questioned let alone criticized? Later, Hamas has established makeshift torture chambers inside Gaza hospitals and schools to interrogate and abuse Palestinians suspected of disloyalty as it reestablishes a strict police state. When is phase two taking place in the peace deal? Afterward, Karmelo Anthony was found guilty of murdering Austin Metcalf in cold blood and sentenced to 35 years, with at least half to be served. He entered the other team's tent, ignored repeated polite requests to leave, became rambunctious and angry, then stabbed the victim so severely that the knife wound was about two inches wide. Despite the open-and-shut case with all witnesses, including defense ones, confirming Anthony as the aggressor, certain individuals, particularly Rep Jasmine Crockett are attempting to portray it as a racial issue and claim he was railroaded.

On Tuesday's Mark Levin Show, Sen Lindsey Graham calls in and gives us an update on his South Carolina primary election today. Graham is a reliable President Trump ally, who will advance the agenda, including properly concluding the Iran conflict, protecting Israel, and pursuing broader Middle East peace. Graham's opponent is heavily funded and endorsed by Marjorie Taylor Greene and Rep Thomas Massie, who lack any MAGA credentials; they are more aligned with the hard left. Also, our military, on the orders of Trump, hammered Iranian positions in response to the Iranian regime shooting down one of our helicopters. How much more delay and attack we will tolerate from this enemy? This is exactly what Israel and Benjamin Netanyahu did the other night when the same enemy fired 11 ballistic missiles at its civilian populations. The U.S. and Israel should both decisively beat the hell out of Iran militarily to end ongoing delays and attacks by Iran or Hezbollah that disrupt deals. Meanwhile, MTG and Thomas Massie continue to question Israel's alliance and push debunked spying claims and the USS Liberty issue. They are fueling anti-Semitism while promoting Putin and terrorist-linked Arab regimes. Later, Southern Poverty Law Center has been exposed as one of the most corrupt, phony civil liberty organizations. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices

Trump's leaked “are you effing crazy” call to Netanyahu sparks a fiery PBD panel clash over Israel's war with Hezbollah, Iran's proxies, Lebanon's Christians, and whether IRGC-backed militias or Israel are to blame for regional chaos

On Monday's Mark Levin Show, despite recent close military cooperation with Israel, President Trump's want for an Iran deal has led to significant restrictions on Israel and Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu. These include limiting it to a defensive war against thousands of Hezbollah missiles and drones, barring action near Beirut, and pulling back Israeli forces after responses. The U.S. would not tolerate such threats itself. Since 1948, Israel has not been free to destroy its enemies. And they've paid a price for it every time. Iran is lucky Israel is not alone, or the regime would be wiped out. Also, Gov Gavin Newsom has legalized election fraud in California by mailing ballots to every residence (regardless of moves), eliminating voter ID requirements, allowing mail-in ballots to be postmarked up to seven days after Election Day, and enabling unlimited third-party voter harvesting of ballots. These measures allow votes to be cast or delivered after initial results are known, making fraud difficult to detect or prosecute since the barriers against it have been removed by law. This sustains a one-party Democratic state. Later, Graham Platner is as a former Nazi who is now an admitted communist, has manhandled women, cheated on his wife multiple times, engaged in perverse behavior in public bathrooms, and spent years on the Kik site associated with pedophiles. Yet, Democrats dismiss these issues, urging voters to ignore them in favor of his stances on Medicare for all, destroying ICE, and defunding law enforcement. The Democrat Party prioritizes power over character. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices
