In 2007, the Coen Brothers made a thriller set in 1980 that somehow captured an American dread that hadn't fully arrived yet. Critic Hugo Emmerzael and academic Dan Hassler-Forest return to No Country for Old Men — the coin toss, the deaths that happen offscreen, the sheriff who solves nothing — to ask how a film everybody already loves quietly called the next twenty years.Hugo and Dan get into the film's nihilism, its collapse of the Western hero and detective who restores order, and the strange afterlife of Javier Bardem's iconic Anton Chigurh: from Oscar winner to right-wing meme. JD Vance has even used Chigurh's monologue in a political speech, while Pete Hegseth apparently mistook Pulp Fiction for the Bible.And what does No Country for Old Men have in common with Euphoria? What felt like a disturbing vision of a society emptied of values in 2007 can now feel less like a warning than a description of everyday life.Get tickets to Cine Of The Times: No Country For Old Men @ LAB111A LAB111 production.

Is the administration's idea that revealing crime is enough?
Israel splitter ikke lenger bare amerikansk venstre- og høyreside. Nå går striden tvers gjennom begge politiske leirer. På høyresiden utfordrer America First-fløyen forestillingen om at USAs interesser alltid sammenfaller med Israels. På venstresiden krever stadig flere at våpenstøtten kuttes. En av USAs mest stabile utenrikspolitiske allianser er blitt en innenrikspolitisk slagmark.Samtidig hardner språket. Tucker Carlson spør hvor stor makt Israel har over Washington. Abdul El-Sayed angriper AIPAC og vil bruke amerikanske penger hjemme. Ted Cruz advarer mot antisemittisme på høyresiden. Donald Trump svarer Israel-kritikere med anklager om jødehat. Midt i dette forsøker JD Vance å trekke en grense: Kritikk av Israel er ikke nødvendigvis antisemittisme – men antisemittismen er reell.Er den gamle amerikanske Israel-konsensusen i ferd med å rakne? Eller er Israel bare blitt frontlinjen i et langt større opprør mot makten, pengene og utenrikspolitikken i Washington?

Weird troll and sitting Vice President JD Vance's last memoir, 2016's Hillbilly Elegy, made him a household name and a darling with some surprising corners of American letters and politics. His new memoir-slash-retread, Communion: Finding My Way Back to Faith reheats the Elegy-pie to massively diminishing returns, and is likely to endear him to just about no one. In this episode, Moira and Adrian talk to New York Times columnist Jamelle Bouie about the book and the strange and deeply resistible rise of JD Vance.
This is an encore episode of 'The View' — new episodes return Tuesday, September 8! The View co-hosts weigh in on Britain's plan to ban children under 16 from social media following Prime Minister Keir Starmer's announcement of a major policy shift and question whether the United States should impose similar restrictions. Vice President JD Vance joins the table to address the state of the economy under the Trump administration, sharing his view that “there's a lot more work to do” and that voters will ultimately decide in November whether the administration has done a good job. When pressed on the administration's immigration crackdown and use of ICE, he tells The View: “We do have to strike a balance, of course, between enforcing our laws. We don't want to dehumanize people.” Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices
Adam talks to guests Jawn Louis, Zach Johnston, and Jessica Singer about a whole litany of Epstein Files updates in mourning of the extremely narrow Senate confirmation of new Attorney General Todd Blanche. Includes news about New Mexico's lawsuit against the DOJ over lack of cooperation in the state's own Epstein investigation, a decades long abuse scandal at a prestigious art camp for kids in Northern Michigan, JD Vance's highly suspicious appearance on the Joe Rogan podcast, an Epstein Files scandal on the new season of Real Housewives of New York, and so very much more.Reference LinksTodd Blanchehttps://apnews.com/article/senate-blanche-attorney-general-justice-department-fcb4157d45d7b13a05de4d2b0f4f92e2 https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2026/jul/27/epstein-survivors-todd-blanche-justice New Mexico Probehttps://www.newsday.com/news/nation/epstein-new-mexico-abuse-l54626https://www.nytimes.com/2026/08/05/us/epstein-files-new-mexico-trump-zorro-ranch.htmlhttps://www.wptv.com/videos/news/epstein/epstein-probe-in-new-mexico-could-expose-high-profile-nameshttps://2ndlifemediaalamogordo.town.news/g/alamogordo-nm/n/382590/new-mexico-claims-federal-government-broke-2019-epstein-investigation Interlochen https://www.clickondetroit.com/news/local/2026/07/29/interlochen-report-details-decades-of-alleged-sexual-misconduct-names-jeffrey-epstein Ohio Statehttps://www.nbc4i.com/news/local-news/ohio-state-university/investigation-osu-head-of-gynecology-had-no-knowledge-of-epsteins-crimes-despite-payments/ https://www.nbc4i.com/news/local-news/ohio-state-wont-consider-removing-wexners-name-from-practice-field/ https://www.nbc4i.com/news/local-news/new-albany/epstein-survivors-lawsuits-against-les-wexner-combined-into-one-case/ Baby Farm and Human Cloninghttps://www.koat.com/article/epstein-files-emails-about-jeffrey-epstein-funding-a-baby-farm-and-a-human-cloning-program/71619337 Model Recruiter Found Dead In Francehttps://www.koco.com/article/model-recruiter-daniel-siad-dead-paris/73231500 JD Vance and the Deep Statehttps://www.aljazeera.com/news/2026/7/16/epstein-linked-to-israeli-deep-state-us-intel-says-vance-what-we-know Furioushttps://variety.com/2026/tv/columns/emmy-rossum-furious-serial-killer-jeffrey-epstein-1236821833/Alan Ritchsonhttps://www.rollingstone.com/tv-movies/tv-movie-news/alan-ritchson-trump-epstein-files-white-house-response-1235598785/ https://www.reddit.com/r/Epstein/comments/1v5sk6g/the_fucking_epstein_files_where_are_they_alan/ Wolf Blitzer https://www.tmz.com/2026/07/25/president-trump-experiences-awkward-jeffrey-epstein-moment-at-whcd/ https://www.forbes.com/sites/antoniopequenoiv/2026/07/25/trump-awkwardly-congratulates-wall-street-journal-reporters-he-sued-over-epstein-letters-story/ RHONY Feudhttps://www.tmz.com/2026/06/17/carole-radziwill-feuds-with-sai-de-silva-over-epstein-files/ https://www.tmz.com/2026/07/21/carole-radziwill-talks-jeffrey-epstein-on-real-housewives-of-new-york/https://www.tmz.com/2026/06/17/sai-de-silva-posts-then-deletes-message-about-carole-radziwill/https://nymag.com/intelligencer/article/jeffrey-epstein-high-society-contacts.html Teen Reporter Angers Community By Searching Epstein Fileshttps://www.wired.com/story/epstein-files-redwood-bark-school-newspaper/Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/hey-unpopular--7047651/support.

Iran just told Trump: reopen Hormuz on our terms, or it stays shut forever. Who's actually calling the shots?Mark Zuckerberg published a 6,500-word AI manifesto today that doesn't beg government to save the world from his own product — a first for Silicon Valley. In this episode, Yaron breaks down why that's a genuine breath of fresh air, and the one line buried in it that undercuts the whole thing.Then: Iran believes it holds every card in this war, and it's hard to argue they're wrong. 440.9 kg of 60%-enriched uranium — enough for ten bombs — is unaccounted for. The Strait of Hormuz is still closed. Tehran is studying North Korea's playbook, not Libya's.Plus: hackers just hit water systems in 12 states, Lockheed is blocking Ukraine from building its own Patriot missiles, why Yaron actually likes video gamers running air traffic control towers, and a live audience Q&A on values, justice, and how to actually think straight in a chaotic world.⏱ Timestamps0:00 — Weekend recap + Friday's Odyssey review2:20 — Does Tucker run in 2028, or does he back JD Vance?4:55 — Zuckerberg's AI manifesto: the good, the bad, and the government-sized hole in it29:51 — "Iran has all the cards, Trump has none" — how did we get here?50:08 — The two things that actually matter for US national security right now56:49 — America's munitions crisis: can we even fight the next war?1:05:06 — Gaza's stalemate and why Netanyahu has to go1:07:42 — Cyberattacks hit water systems in 12 states — is Iran behind it?1:07:50 — The economy nobody trusts: Americans are traveling more than ever1:22:48 — Gamers are now running air traffic control.

Jon Herold and Chris Paul open by dissecting a pair of Trump social posts, one clearly joking about a 2028 run, one that reads a lot more serious, and have some fun picking apart what happens when a "just kidding" post gets followed by one that isn't. There's also a JD Vance endorsement clip that gets the full comedic breakdown treatment before things turn more substantive. The middle stretch covers a Tucker Carlson style interview where Trump talks AI, data centers, and the power infrastructure being built alongside them, with the guys drawing comparisons to Bitcoin mining setups and wondering aloud what's really being built. That folds into midterm talk and what a Democrat controlled Congress could mean going forward. Add in a Hunter Biden tangent near the end, and it's a episode that bounces between comic relief and genuinely meaty policy discussion.
Alex opens with a quick riff on going to the movies before diving into Tucker Carlson's ten-point "manifesto" about his vision for America. He runs through each point — Fair, Sovereign, Productive, Beautiful, Healthy, Honest, Optimistic, Wise, Decent, and United — reacting to each in turn. His overall take: he doesn't think Tucker is actually running for president, but is instead building a political framework that JD Vance could eventually step into if he breaks from Trump. Tucker's Ten Points — Alex's Take on Each: Fair — "Fair to me means he's saying they — we need to make it fair for us," which Alex reads as classic us-vs-them framing. Sovereign — On blaming Israel for pushing the U.S. into the Iran war, Alex says it "takes agency away from Trump and puts it all on Israel," calling Israel "a great boogeyman" but not the whole story. Productive — Alex says the anti-globalization, pro-manufacturing pitch "sounds like Trump's protectionism," adding flatly, "manufacturing is just not coming back." Beautiful — Alex is open to agreeing on ugly urban planning and brutalist architecture, joking Tucker could "make America beautiful again — not a bad campaign." Healthy — He's sympathetic to the anti-overmedication point but balks at "universal sobriety," saying it "sounds like you start locking up people for drinking." Honest — Alex is fully on board with releasing classified records: "I'd be down for JFK and just release it all at this point." Optimistic — On the pro-natalist "you must have children" stance, Alex says it "sounds like" Tucker's Christian nationalism and pushes back that "some people shouldn't have children." Wise — Alex is skeptical of Tucker preaching how "the world actually works" given Tucker's own claims about being visited by demons in his sleep. Decent — This is where Alex agrees most, saying "Department of War is fucking retarded" and that Israel "needs to stop," calling Netanyahu "an awful actor." United — Alex flatly disagrees with halting immigration, arguing immigrants are "doing jobs that a lot of people don't want."

Ben Shapiro joins Patrick Bet-David to break down Tucker Carlson's viral "MAGA Was Betrayed" message and the speculation surrounding his political future. Ben weighs in on rumors that Tucker could launch a new political movement, addresses claims about JD Vance being "compromised," and explains why he believes a third-party presidential run is highly unlikely.
Live Aug 8, 2026(Yaron & Nikos Dialogues, Episode 9)In the Mind of JD Vance | Yaron & Nikos DialoguesIs JD Vance the future of American conservatism — or is he Elizabeth Warren with a rosary?JD Vance calls himself a defender of capitalism. He talks about "robber barons," praises union power, campaigns for Viktor Orbán's crony state in Hungary, and once said UFOs might be demons. Yaron Brook and Nikos Sotirakopoulos spend this episode taking Vance's own words apart — the Rogan interview, the "Christian political economy," the Iran deal he ran point on — to answer one question: what does JD Vance actually believe, and is it conservatism at all, or socialism wearing a cross? Tune in as Yaron and Nikos go inside the ideas driving the man most likely to be the next face of the Republican Party, and they don't pull punches.
James Lindsay led the 2018 Grievance Studies Affair, a hoax so effective it got a chapter of Mein Kampf rewritten as feminist theory accepted into a peer-reviewed journal. Since then he's built New Discourses around defining the woke formula of critical theory plus Leninist tactics, and how the formula appears on the left and the right. In this conversation, Lindsay traces "woke" back through Lenin's vanguard model and a 1937 Nazi corporate law that literally invented the word "stakeholder," then applies the same framework to Tucker Carlson, breaking down why he meets every box on the definition. James connects totalitarian ideology to clinical narcissism, explains why government incentive structures guarantee corruption regardless of who's in charge, and shares firsthand accounts from parents whose teenage sons are being radicalized into neo-Nazi forums. The conversation closes on JD Vance and his documented ties to post-liberal, Catholic integralist thinkers.

Our in-house Republican strategist just said MAGA is "breaking and being exposed for the fraud that it was." This week, on Political Rehab, all five stories were the same story: Republicans at war with Republicans.Trump's cabinet turned on itself in public — Jeanine Pirro's office dropped every reflecting pool vandalism case after admitting the damage was botched no-bid contractor work, and she and Interior Secretary Doug Burgum are now openly blaming each other. Trump reportedly exploded at Pete Hegseth over severe missile and interceptor shortages, Hegseth blamed his own deputy, and Trump is threatening prison for whoever leaked it. The online right turned on its own DHS Secretary, Mark Wayne Mullen, for the sin of saying "legal immigration" out loud. Marjorie Taylor Greene and Tucker Carlson convened a cabin meeting in Maine that has MAGA talking openly about a third party and a Carlson 2028 run. And Trump demanded the Senate cancel its August recess over the SAVE Act — only for John Thune to walk out the door anyway.Then in The Battlefield: the generic ballot hits Democrats +7.2 — ahead of where they were at this point in 2018 — Abdul El-Sayed's Michigan primary win scrambles the Senate map, and 61,000 Michigan Democrats voted for a candidate who had dropped out a month earlier. That last number tells you something important about American politics.Matt Robison is a former Chief of Staff to three Democratic Members of Congress. Matt Wylie is a longtime Republican campaign strategist.

C Lieven expresses skepticism regarding Russian influence in German elections, noting that the Alternative for Germany (AfD) is genuinely popular due to anti-immigration stances and skepticism toward funding Ukraine. Meanwhile, the UK faces budget constraints that hinder promised military spending increases. A migration crisis involving thousands of people attempting to enter EU territory from Morocco has triggered emergency meetings. Nationalist parties in Europe may move toward total immigration bans to satisfy their core supporters. (1)Kevin Hoy discusses the detection of a Jupiter-mass object orbiting the brown dwarf CD-35 2722b, which may represent the first confirmed exosatellite or exomoon. Using the radial velocity method, researchers identified a "wobble" in the spectrum of the brown dwarf, indicating a secondary body in a highly eccentric 170-day orbit. This discovery is a significant milestone for astrophysics, as it helps scientists understand planetary formation processes outside our solar system. Hoy explains that such objects are difficult to find because technology is often limited by the brightness and proximity of host stars. Future mapping of nearby systems could involve high-power radar technology. (2)Evan Ellis explores the landscape of Uruguay, a stable country navigating the trade interests of its neighbors, Brazil and Argentina. The discussion shifts to Colombia's newly elected president, Abelardo de la Espriella, whose inauguration in a high-security zone signals a pivot toward closer alignment with the United States. Ellis also addresses the complex situation in Venezuela, where the U.S. is negotiating with the relatively unknown Dinorah Figuera rather than more prominent opposition figures. Regional stability is further threatened by an explosion of homicides in Uruguay and the presence of millions of Venezuelan refugees in Colombia. (3)Bradley Bowman warns of the unprecedented military cooperation between Russia, China, Iran, and North Korea, documented in 616 instances of security collaboration. Russia has transferred advanced technology, such as Su-35 fighters and submarine quieting techniques, to China to secure support for its war in Ukraine. Simultaneously, Iran provides drones and targeting data to help Russia strike Ukrainian targets and U.S. forces in the Middle East. North Korea has supplied thousands of soldiers and munitions to the European front. Bowman emphasizes that the U.S. defense industrial base is currently a shadow of its World War II capacity. (4)Harry Sidebottom describes the reality of Roman gladiators, noting they were often heavy-set due to a carbohydrate-rich diet designed to provide protective fat. These fighters were glamorous figures who enacted Roman virtues of courage and physical strength for the public. While many were slaves or prisoners, others were free men who volunteered to escape grinding poverty. Most gladiators fought only once or twice a year, with a survival rate of roughly seven in eight. The segment also notes a rare historical instance where a Roman audience felt sympathy for elephants being massacred in the arena. (5)Peter Berkowitz analyzes the work of Professor Patrick Deneen, who argues that liberal democracy is a "curse" that has atomized American society. Deneen presents contradictory accounts of whether liberalism was a founding principle or a 20th-century imposition. He advocates for a "regime change" toward a pre-liberal order that prioritizes biblical faith and classical virtue over individual rights. Berkowitz notes that Deneen's ideas have influenced figures like Vice President JD Vance, who has publicly endorsed Deneen's work. The critique suggests that Machiavellian means and state coercion may be necessary to restore a Christian foundation to the nation. (6)Jack Burnham explains the FCC's efforts to prohibit military-grade, foreign-produced drones, specifically targeting Chinese firms like DJI due to security concerns. These "dual-use" systems are defined by their ability to carry heavy loads and utilize advanced sensor arrays. A significant security gap exists because critical infrastructure like power grids and hospitals lacks the same protections afforded to airports and military bases. Burnham cites a 2024 arrest of a man flying an unregistered drone over Vandenberg Space Force Base in California as evidence of the threat. The Trumpadministration has issued executive orders to secure American airspace from unidentified objects. (7)Mary Anastasia O'Grady reports Keiko Fujimori has secured the Peruvian presidency by a narrow margin, inheriting a nation plagued by organized crime and Chinese influence. Fujimori faces an immediate crisis with the expected arrival of El Niño in September, which threatens the fishing industry and may cause floods. Transnational criminal organizations involved in extortion and illegal mining present a strategic threat to property rights and small businesses. Additionally, China's construction of the Chancay port and heavy mining investments have granted Beijing significant political leverage. Fujimori must now balance these economic realities while attempting to restore the rule of law. (8)Corrections applied: Mary Anastasia O'Grady as directed; Abelardo de la Espriella (transcribed as "Delospria," segment 3 — matching prior batches); and Patrick Deneen (transcribed as "Denine," segment 6 — the Notre Dame political theorist). One to flag: Kevin Hoy (segment 2) — I couldn't verify this astronomer's name, and the brown dwarf designation (rendered as "CD352722b," which I've set as CD-35 2722b) suggests the transcription may be rough. Worth checking against the booking sheet.

Donald Trump and his former cable news weekend co-host defense secretary, Pete Hegseth, are reportedly fighting over who is to blame for wasting U.S. military resources and depleting the U.S. weapons stockpile on Trump's inexplicable war on Iran. Hegseth reportedly blamed his deputy. Rep. Pat Ryan, a member of the House Armed Services Committee, joins to discuss Trump's foolhardy prosecution of the war. Donald Trump's brazen corruption is so much a part of his political identity that it has become an election issue unto itself. And when Senator Tim Scott tries to gaslight the American public into believing Trump is a model of ethics, or when JD Vance tries to pretend prosecuting fraud is an important priority of his, Trump's corruption only makes them look ridiculous. Rep. Ro Khanna joins to discuss. Mitch Landrieu and Jennifer Palmieri discuss the shifting politics in the American South.

James Carville returns to the Daily Beast Podcast with a blunt prediction about Donald Trump's future, arguing that the president could ultimately quit rather than face the political collapse he believes is coming after the midterms. Carville explains why he thinks Trump's power is already beginning to evaporate, what a Trump resignation and pardon from JD Vance could look like, and which alleged financial scandals could come under scrutiny if Democrats retake Congress. He also weighs the risks of another election-disruption campaign, the Democrats' internal battle over the party's future, why he believes South Carolina voters could play a decisive role in choosing the next Democratic nominee, and what he makes of Mitch McConnell's prolonged absence from the Senate Go to https://ro.co/DAILYBEAST to see if you qualify and get started on Ro.

Abdul El-Sayed just scraped out a razor-thin win in Michigan's Democratic Senate primary, and the establishment is already lining up behind him. This isn't some mild progressive. We're talking open socialist policies, calls to treat Israel as an illegal apartheid regime, and a campaign that got a boost from radicals who said America deserved 9/11. The same party that once pretended to be the big tent is now rolling out the red carpet for the red-green alliance of socialists and hard-left extremists. Chuck Schumer (D-N.Y.) went from backing the moderate to praising El-Sayed's “energetic campaign.” Meanwhile, voices warning about anti-Semitism and anti-American fringe ideas are being shouted down. This isn't just Michigan. It's a clear signal that the socialist wing is no longer on the fringe — it is taking the nominations, and the leadership is folding. Regular Americans watching this should understand exactly what it means for the future of the country when the opposition party decides extremism is the new normal. Do you think the Democratic Party can still be pulled back from this radical takeover? What does it say about the state of the Left when someone this extreme becomes the nominee in a swing state? Pat also covered: Why are New York lawmakers pushing to bring back gay bathhouses? France just banned telemarketers — and Americans are taking notes.

JD Vance yesterday called for any public official who's committing fraud, committing public corruption, who's personally enriching themselves off of the American taxpayer to be thrown into prison. Wow. So…nobody in American history has engaged in more public corruption, has enriched themselves off the American taxpayer more than Trump has. No one. Not even close. So…Vance clearly thinks Trump should be in prison, right? Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Rising taxes over the years have been a major cause of affordability issues for many Americans. The Senate committee is voting today to hold Dr. Anthony Fauci in contempt of Congress, and Mark breaks down what may happen to him. In addition, he may know why Minority Leader Chuck Schumer hasn't been around lately. Some old-school rock bands, such as ZZ Top and The Rolling Stones, have recently rescheduled or canceled their shows. Anthony Fauci has officially been held in contempt. The FBI is launching a major investigation into James Comey and how he handled the Russian hoax and probe against President Trump. A Yankees fan is suing the team after being hit by a bat that a player lost control of. What is Dr. Abdul El-Sayed up to today after his win in the Michigan Primary?

A Senate committee on Aug. 6 voted to hold Dr. Anthony Fauci, the former head of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases, in contempt of Congress. The full Senate could consider the matter before making a referral to prosecutors, but Sen. Rand Paul (R-Ky.) has said that might result in a negative vote.U.S. Vice President JD Vance on Wednesday called Iranian negotiators "extraordinarily difficult people" and said any nuclear deal would take time.Speaking to Fox News, Vance acknowledged American frustration with the stop-start nature of diplomatic progress but said Iran's "fractured system" includes both those wanting peace and "crazy radicals who want the war to continue."
Hawk breaks down Trump's reaction, a Truth Social post calling El-Sayed a communist, alleging fraud in Wayne County, and warning of a rigged election. Hawk argues the cities Trump singles out when he cries fraud, going back to 2020, are consistently those with large Black and Latino populations, and connects it to the Supreme Court's rollback of the Voting Rights Act. He also covers JD Vance's response and the pattern of pardons for fraud convictions, work tracked by former pardon attorney Liz Oyer. The confirmation math is the other thread. With the Senate at 52 present votes, Blanche can lose only two Republicans. Susan Collins is a no, Lisa Murkowski is undecided, and Louisiana's Bill Cassidy told SiriusXM he is not yet convinced, drawing a distinction between an attorney general who was once Trump's lawyer and a personal lawyer who is now attorney general. Hawk closes on the Florida subpoena of Anthony Fauci, arguing Fauci held an advisory role with no authority to order anyone.

Hawk walks through the reporting. It describes a July 2025 Situation Room meeting, chaired by Vice President JD Vance and attended by senior officials, convened to figure out how to respond as the story divided the MAGA base. The article recounts the strategy debate, from petitioning courts to unseal grand jury transcripts to the eventual Truth Social post, alongside Attorney General Pam Bondi's on-camera claim that a client list was on her desk and the later influencer binder rollout that backfired. Hawk connects it to Blanche's central role: interviewing Ghislaine Maxwell over two days before her transfer, being briefed on the review, and telling the president there was nothing substantive. He notes Bondi testified she delegated the Epstein matter to Blanche, argues the record should have factored into the confirmation, and reminds viewers Blanche was Trump's defense attorney in the New York case that ended in 34 felony convictions.
