Tom Bilyeu welcomes entrepreneur and media powerhouse Patrick Bet-David, founder of Valuetainment, for a masterclass on leadership, politics, and the high-stakes challenges currently facing America. Together, Tom and Patrick dive into a rapid-fire analysis of Donald Trump's performance as president, dissecting his leadership style as a project manager and the enormous complexity of running multiple high-impact agendas at once. The pair examine where Trump excels, where his administration fumbled—most notably the Epstein scandal—and how the media narrative profoundly shapes public opinion. This jam-packed first half delves into international challenges with China, trade negotiations, and the difficulties of moving public policy quickly in a hyper-scrutinized environment. Patrick shares candid perspectives on which advisors are moving the needle, why tariffs matter, and how Elon Musk's long-game may disrupt American party politics.

The Evil of Socialism -- Why it Won't Go Away | Yaron Brook Show*

July 20, 2025 | *The Evil of Socialism — Why It Won't Go Away* | The Yaron Brook Show Why does socialism—despite its history of death, destruction, and dysfunction—still seduce the minds of so many? In this fiery and insightful episode, Yaron Brook takes on the moral, psychological, and cultural roots of socialism's enduring appeal. From the altruist ethics that make it seem noble to the intellectual cowardice that allows its ideas to persist, Yaron shows how and why socialism keeps returning in new disguises—and why we must reject it not just economically but philosophically.He explores how today's intellectuals and politicians repackage collectivism under the banners of "equity," "community," or "social housing," and reveals how even well-meaning advocates fall into the same traps that led past societies into ruin. It's not just about economics—it's about morality, values, and the fight for individualism against a rising cultural tide of self-sacrifice.

The Good News That Media Doesn't Tell You Before diving into the political chaos, we start with hope: 3D-printed lung tissue that could cure COPD and asthma, revolutionary IVF techniques saving babies from mitochondrial diseases, and breakthrough infant heart transplant procedures expanding donor pools by 20%. Sometimes the best news is the news that reminds us human ingenuity is solving problems we thought impossible. Congressional Chaos & Crypto Drama The Senate passes Trump's $9 billion spending cuts in a nail-biter 51-48 vote, targeting foreign aid and public broadcasting. But the real drama? House Republicans initially blocked crypto bills during "Crypto Week" until Trump personally called holdouts to the Oval Office. We break down the GENIUS Act for stablecoin regulation, Bitcoin hitting $123K, and why regulating an industry you're profiting from might be problematic. The Musk vs. Trump Epstein Files Showdown Elon Musk has gone full chaos mode against Trump over Jeffrey Epstein files, even announcing an "America Party" to prioritize their release. We explore how this billionaire Twitter beef is creating genuine fractures in the MAGA movement and potentially costing Republicans seats in 2026. Immigration Crackdown Reality Check ICE now has access to 79 million Medicaid enrollees' personal data for deportation efforts. We examine the surge in arrests (47% without criminal charges), violent California cannabis farm raids, and the controversial "Alligator Alcatraz" detention center that Democrats and Republicans describe completely differently. International Military Escalation Trump's "Operation Midnight Hammer" strikes on Iranian nuclear facilities, his complete flip on Russia policy with 100% tariff threats, and renewed violence in Syria. Plus, the ongoing Gaza humanitarian crisis and why a 20-year-old American was allegedly killed by Israeli settlers in the West Bank. Research on a Dime: What Is Socialism Actually? We break down the most misunderstood political term in America. Spoiler alert: Those "socialist" Nordic countries? Not actually socialist. Denmark's PM had to literally tell Americans to stop calling them that. We explore real socialism's pros and cons, why Americans already live with tons of "socialist" policies, and what NYC mayoral candidate Zohran Mamdani's democratic socialism experiment might mean for American politics. Domestic Policy Pandemonium Trump freezes $6 billion in education grants, threatens to strip citizenship from political opponents (spoiler: he legally can't), and escalates tariffs on 100+ countries while inflation ticks upward. We also cover the Texas flooding tragedy, church shooting in Kentucky, and why your medical debt might stay on your credit report after all. The Numbers That Matter Bitcoin: $123,165 all-time high ICE arrests: 930 daily (triple the original target) Immigration detention: 60,000 people (20,000 over Congressional funding) Texas flooding: 80+ dead, 41 still missing Gaza casualties: 57,000+ Palestinians killed since October 7, 2023 Purple Political Breakdown cuts through partisan noise to deliver nuanced analysis of the week's biggest political stories. We explain complex policies, decode political theater, and research topics that actually matter all while maintaining our commitment to balanced, fact-based journalism that treats our audience like adults capable of forming their own opinions.

At the recent Socialism 2025 conference in Chicago, Suzi moderated a panel about political prisoners in Russia and brings it now to Jacobin Radio. We hear from Ksenia Kagarlitskaya, founder of the Freedom Zone campaign that organizes festivals around the world in support of political prisoners and their families. She plays a recorded message from her father, imprisoned Marxist Boris Kagarlitsky in Penal Colony No. 4. Historian Simon Pirani and exiled scholar Ilya Budraitskis draw attention to the silenced left prisoners of conscience resisting war — both from inside Russia's prison system and in exile. This is not just about Russia. As authoritarianism surges globally, the criminalization of dissent follows a familiar script. The day before this panel on July 3, eleven political prisoners, including Kagarlitsky, issued an open letter to world leaders. They called for the mass release of Russian political prisoners and Ukrainian civilian hostages — an estimated 10,000 people — as part of any peace settlement between Russia and Ukraine. As pressure builds for an end to the war, their call must become ours: freedom for all political prisoners! Jacobin Radio with Suzi Weissman features conversations with leading thinkers and activists, with a focus on labor, the economy, and protest movements.

My guest is Francis Fukuyama, a scholar and political scientist. He is the author of many books. He is most well known for his 1992 work, "The End of History & the Last Man". Drawing on Hegel and Marx, Fukuyama explores the concept of teleology — the idea that history is a linear process where human societies progress through sequential socioeconomic forms. As Marx famously wrote, Feudalism was replaced by Capitalism and would ultimately be replaced by Socialism. But after the collapse of the Soviet Union and the end of the Cold War, Francis Fukuyama argued that western liberal democracy was the final form of human government. His thesis has been updated and revised many times since and remains a frequent subject of debate today.

The word "democratic" is supposed to soften the blow of socialism, with Zohran Mamdani's campaign being the latest to fool the voters.

The Epstein Saga is getting ridiculous and the American people and a large portion of the MAGA base are pissed. Let's dive into it. Host Cole Smithson also gets into how to talk to conservatives and get them on our side while they are politically nihilist or agnostic. Love y'all. Enjoy!Twitter @awake_smyth

Socialism is on the rise only because we have failed to share a biblical vision of free market capitalism and its superior results. Hollywood is destroying yet another iconic brand in the name of progressive wokeism. What happened to Chip and Joanna Gaines? And last but not least, the IRS has stated that pastors may endorse political candidates to their congregations marking a huge win for pulpit freedom.

Join Dan and Corey in this raucous episode of Libservative as they dive into the week's hottest political and cultural topics. The show kicks off with breaking news about Coca-Cola's switch to cane sugar, claimed as a big win for the Trump administration. From there, the conversation turns to the Trump administration's role in covering up the Epstein files, which they now declare a hoax. The hosts also tackle the GOP's internal strife, with heated debates involving George Santos and Trump meltdowns over Epstein. Corey expresses his disdain for the Democratic Party's repetitive strategies, while Dan highlights the shifting dynamics within young conservatives. With unfiltered humor and sharp commentary, this episode hits all the marks for a can't-miss listen.00:00 Welcome to Libservative: Setting the Stage01:00 Breaking News: Trump's Big Win01:57 Immigration Reform: A Bipartisan Effort02:31 Trump Presidency Predictions: Coming True03:50 George Santos: Facing Prison Time09:03 Trump's Meltdown: Epstein Investigation10:51 Rob Ford: The Original Trump13:35 Epstein Files: A Political Hot Potato36:20 Flint Water Crisis: A Local Parallel46:22 Constitutional Republic vs. Democracy49:24 Controversial Comments and Protected Classes49:57 Political Hypocrisy and Identity Politics50:28 Mayoral Campaign and Religious Criticism52:49 Socialism vs. Capitalism Debate01:01:42 Turning Points Conference Highlights01:02:42 Young Conservatives and Anti-War Sentiment01:10:20 Debating Israel and Conservative Values01:23:43 Generational Politics and Economic Challenges01:38:36 Final Thoughts and Announcements

Send us a textToday's episode is a short book summary, on a book called Why Women Have Better Sex Under Socialism: And Other Arguments for Economic Independence by Kristen Ghodsee. This book was written for young Americans who were pissed off and energized by the election of Trump.The author, Dr. Kristen Ghodsee is a professor of Russian and Eastern European Studies at the University of Pennsylvania. She studies countries that went from socialism to capitalism. Her big thesis in this book is that capitalism isn't all it is cracked up to be. That it turns out we, as a society can't really have it all, and she zeroes in on women in particular. Based on her research, she believes that women will have more economic freedom and work life balance under socialism, whereas capitalism has reinforced gendered stereotypes and roles, a gender wage gap and a situation where women work second shifts as caretakers. Tune in to the episode to learn more!https://www.pbs.org/newshour/economy/making-sense/read-an-excerpt-from-why-women-have-better-sex-under-socialismSupport the show

134 people have died and 101 remain missing after the Guadalupe River in central Texas overflowed as a result of 6.5 inches of rain falling over the course of three hours on the morning of July 4th. Though the floods are being called just a natural disaster, mounting evidence shows that climate change, budget cuts, crumbling infrastructure and political infighting contributed not just to the flooding but the resulting destruction and loss of life. Even in a real freak incident, a true once-in-a-century occurrence,  proper precautions and warnings could have been implemented. Plainly, no one had to die and the blame has to be not just on individual decision-makers but the entire capitalist system that neglects the basic needs of people in favor of profits.We're joined by Corrie Rosen, a member of the Party for Socialism and Liberation in San Antonio who's been helping with the recovery efforts.Support local volunteer efforts here and read more about it at Peoples Dispatch. Then, we discuss the $200 million contracts given by the Department of Defense to Anthropic, Google, OpenAI, and xAI - in the wake of xAI's Grok going full-on antisemitic.Support the show

Just two weeks ago, New Yorkers voted en masse for a self-proclaimed socialist—someone who once called for “seizing the means of production.” This is, of course, Zohran Mamdani, who dominated in the Democratic primary for New York City mayor with a definitive victory over Andrew Cuomo. He has called for rent freezes, free buses, and even government-run grocery stores. He won 56 percent of the vote in a campaign fueled by young, highly educated, wealthy people—many of whom believe in reviving socialism here in America, in 2025. According to a Cato Institute poll from May: 62 percent of Americans age 18 to 29 say they hold a “favorable view” of socialism. And 34 percent had a positive view of communism. Polls by Emerson and Marist from May and June had shown Mamdani leading with voters under 45 by as much as a 2:1 ratio against the former governor. This phenomenon has left many people wondering: Why are so many young people embracing a failed economic system? Is it their university education? Is it the influence of social media? Is it just “cool”? Is it a desperate call for anything to fix wealth inequality? Or is it something else? Here to help us understand are Tyler Cowen and Kyla Scanlon. Tyler Cowen is an economist and Free Press columnist who just wrote an important essay for us called “Why Won't Socialism Die?” Kyla Scanlon is a writer, economic commentator, and educator—and, importantly for this conversation, a member of Gen Z. She is 28, and her new book is In This Economy? How Money & Markets Really Work. This conversation was originally a Free Press livestream—and you'll hear throughout this conversation that I take lots of questions from people who joined us live.

Too many socialists are coming out of the closet to run for positions of political leadership within the Democrat Party. And it's high time to push them all back into the closet. Socialists don't belong in American politics. Everything they stand for is counter to the Constitution. And the reason we're seeing so many these days is that Americans have turned from their faith and forgotten God. Judge Phil Ginn speaks of the intersection of faith and freedom.

When socialist Evo Morales was elected president of Bolivia, he received favorable press from the western media. Like most socialists, however, his government turned tyrannical.

If you want to take down Socialism and Communism in America, let the forces try to install Socialism and Communism. The Democrats have a real problem on their hands pushing Zohran Mamdani for Mayor as a Democrat! More has to be done in New York and in other sanctuary 'blue' regions to show just how far a socialistic/communistic regime can go in the USA. Meanwhile, the Senate has the 'Big Beautiful Bill' in their laps for final consideration. The 'Autopen' investigation is on full display and is underway in the House Oversight Committee.Democrat Mayoral Candidate in NYC, Zohran Mamdani ~ Has Democrats Running for Cover NationwideGene Valentino on Newsmax NewslineORIGINAL MEDIA SOURCE(S):Originally Recorded on June 26, 2025America Beyond the Noise: Season 5, Episode 594Image courtesy of: Newsmax➡️ Join the Conversation: https://GeneValentino.com➡️ WMXI Facebook Page: https://www.facebook.com/NewsRadio981➡️ More WMXI Interviews: https://genevalentino.com/wmxi-interviews/➡️ More GrassRoots TruthCast Episodes: https://genevalentino.com/grassroots-truthcast-with-gene-valentino/➡️ More Broadcasts with Gene as the Guest: https://genevalentino.com/america-beyond-the-noise/ ➡️ More About Gene Valentino: https://genevalentino.com/about-gene-valentino/

The cabinet meeting earlier this week really highlighted how the administration is firing on all cylinders. Victor draws comparisons to Winston Churchill, he stood defiant to Hitler and Russia and all of Europe were folding and making deals with the German dictator. Winston was alone in his defiance and when he returned to power, everything changed. President Trump is similar in his defiance and in his return to power has changed our country in just 6 short months. Democrats on the other hand are embracing Socialism, Zohran Mamdani is just the latest whose parents left impoverished countries for a better life in American. Like Mamdani, Barack Obama, Kamala Harris and Rep. Ilhan Omar reflect the pattern of affluent, left-wing, highly educated politicians that succeeded under the safety and rule of law of America; yet seek to destroy and replace the American way of life with a Communist society.
