Podcast appearances and mentions of JD Vance

Welcome back to the Word on Fire Show. I'm Matthew Petrusek, senior director of the Word on Fire Institute and the host of the Word on Fire Show. Thank you for joining us. The evolutionary behavioral scientist and public intellectual Gad Saad recently published an influential book entitled Suicidal Empathy: Dying to Be Kind. In it, Saad argues that much of the West has, unfortunately, come to embrace a perversely deficient understanding of empathy, twisting the natural and otherwise noble human capacity to feel and respond to other peoples' sufferings into a moral license to upend the moral, economic, and political order. According to the dictates of suicidal empathy, for example, society should prioritize criminals over victims, illegal immigrants over citizens, lawbreakers over law abiders, racial identity over competence, adult sexual expression over childhood innocence, and trans women––that is, men pretending to be women––over real women. Suicidal empathy's endgame, Saad warns, is nothing less than societal ruin and the eventual totalitarian eclipse of the individual. How, from a Catholic perspective, should we assess these claims? Is Saad's characterization of suicidal empathy and its dangers accurate? If so, how should we, as Christians, constructively respond? What role, in particular, should the biblical conception of love play in defining what it means to show true compassion and care for those in need? Here to discuss Saad's book and to explain how authentic Christian charity is—and is not—related to empathy, is Bishop Robert Barron.

The Trump administration has designated the UK activist group Palestine Action as a "specially designated global terrorist organization," focusing on the group's property-damage campaigns against Israeli defense contractor Elbit Systems. Jimmy points out how governments are increasingly broadening the definition of "terrorism" to encompass virtually any political activism, protest, property damage, and financial support the government objects to, raising concerns about free speech and government power.  Jimmy also contrasts the treatment of Palestine Action with the changing U.S. designation of Syria as a state sponsor of terrorism after the country was taken over by a bona fide terrorist, while portraying Western policy toward Israel and Palestine as deeply inconsistent. Throughout, he connects these developments to broader concerns about political repression, surveillance, civil liberties, and the weaponization of terrorism designations. Plus segments on Jimmy once again ratio-ing Andrew Wilson for pushing the phony Tyler Robinson narrative and a Florida town using fake Flock cameras to entrap an anti-surveillance activist for vandalism. Also featuring Stef Zamorano and Mike MacRae. And a phone call from JD Vance!

A new 2028 poll just dropped, the Lindsay Clancy backlash has TikTok picking the wrong hero, and the AI job panic keeps getting rescheduled. Brian Nichols breaks down all three... and pulls zero punches.The Newsweek/McLaughlin 2028 numbers put JD Vance on top at 32%. But Don Jr. sits second at 19% without even running, Marco Rubio lands third at 12%, and Kamala Harris leads the Democratic field at 29%. Brian explains why fourth-place AOC is the name the establishment should actually fear, and what the DSA winning real races means for 2028 and 2032.Then the Lindsay Clancy backlash. 164,000 TikToks. Pink shirts outside the courthouse. A GoFundMe closing in on one million dollars from 31,000 donors. Brian draws a hard line between supporting postpartum mental health and justifying the unjustifiable... and explains why he has zero empathy left to give.And the AI job panic? They said the jobs were gone. Unemployment is still 4.2%, college grad joblessness is 2.7%, CEOs expecting big AI headcount cuts dropped from 46% to 20%, and the Stanford numbers show no gap at all between AI-exposed and least-exposed work.

In the last year and a half, President Donald Trump has put his name, image, or both, on a whole host of things — federal buildings, passports, the resident National Park pass, the administration's child savings accounts, the under construction border wall, and of course, the Kennedy Center. But why? Why is Trump so obsessed with seeing his name on pretty much everything that isn't nailed down (and a lot that is)? To find out, we spoke with Alex Wagner, host of Crooked Media's Runaway Country.And in headlines, the Iran war hits the six-month mark, Federal Reserve Chair Kevin Warsh suggests the central bank may have to raise interest rates, Trump announces a U.S. Space Academy, and Trump plans to send Vice President JD Vance to Ground Zero for the 25th anniversary of the 9/11 attacks.Show Notes: Call Congress – 202-224-3121 Subscribe to the What A Day Newsletter – https://tinyurl.com/y4y2e9jy What A Day – YouTube – https://www.youtube.com/@whatadaypodcast Follow us on Instagram – https://www.instagram.com/crookedmedia/ For a transcript of this episode, please email transcripts@crooked.com

Two genuinely ridiculous things crossed Hawk's desk today, and they rhyme. First, The Atlantic reports that with his approval parked in the low thirties, the president sat his advisors down to figure out how to spend a roughly $400 million super PAC war chest, and the master plan they landed on is more of himself. The diagnosis from his own team is that voters just haven't been properly introduced to his accomplishments yet, which is a bold thing to say about the most photographed man alive. The cure is ads. About him. Problem solved. Then there's the convention. Parties hold conventions in presidential years. Everybody knows this except, apparently, the people planning a two night Trump convention in Dallas on September 9th and 10th, keynote speaker both nights, him. It lands on NFL opening night, which is a fight with the NFL that the NFL does not know it is in and will win anyway. And the cover charge is the punchline: House candidates reportedly pay their own super PAC to walk in, tiered all the way up to a six figure package Hawk reads out with the delight it deserves. His take, more or less: if you were trying to lose on purpose, it would look a lot like this.

In this exclusive interview with Jimmy, former Trump stalwart Marjorie Taylor Greene calls the President a "traitor" for betraying his "no more foreign wars" promise and covering up the Epstein files to protect his friends. She also condemns his foreign beef import plan as a "slap in the face" to American ranchers, accusing him of putting corporate interests and Israel ahead of the American people.  The fallout began when Trump launched the Iran war and escalated after Greene publicly demanded the release of the Epstein files, leading Trump to call her "Marjorie 'Traitor' Greene". She argues that neither party represents working Americans, pointing to $40 trillion in debt and the H-1B visa program as examples of how Congress works for lobbyists, not the people. Plus segments on why Trump's new sanctions on Iran are doomed to fail and Andrew Wilson's epic flip-flop on questioning the FBI's story about who killed Charlie Kirk. Also featuring Stef Zamorano and Mike MacRae. And a phone call from JD Vance!

The show also dives into the latest political chaos surrounding Hakeem Jeffries, Chris Cuomo's open-borders exchange, Minnesota security concerns, and a major Supreme Court ruling involving mail-in ballots.Trump's escalating trade fight with Canada heats up as Mark Carney, Doug Ford, JD Vance, and Scott Bessent weigh in — while some awkward "Team Canada" contradictions emerge.Finally, the Lindsay Clancy case continues to fuel disturbing online reactions, including viral TikToks, courtroom drama, and new arguments surrounding Patrick Clancy.

For the 274th episode of Private Parts Unknown, host Courtney Kocak welcomes Hannah Matthews, abortion doula and author of ⁠You or Someone You Love⁠. In this interview, Hannah shares her personal experience with abortion and her work as an abortion doula supporting others through the process, and how that work has helped her confront her own shame and discomfort around sex and bodily autonomy. She also discusses the misconceptions people have about abortion, the importance of pleasure in the equation, and her experiences with anti-abortion rhetoric and harassment from public figures like JD Vance. Hannah is currently working on a new memoir exploring chronic illness and sex, which we talk about a little bit at the end.

Why has JD Vance been on a crusade against the economics profession recently? Phil Magness joins the podcast to discuss why JD Vance thinks the concept of GDP is fake, why he's skeptical that consumers having a lot of affordable goods is a good thing, and why the right is turning to 'post-liberal' economics.

The Trump administration's handling of the Epstein files has become a political disaster because years of promises about transparency ran headfirst into the Justice Department's refusal to back the most explosive public expectations. Senior White House officials, including Vice President JD Vance, reportedly gathered without Trump in the Situation Room to manage the fallout after the DOJ and FBI said there was no “client list,” no confirmed blackmail operation, and that Epstein's death was a suicide. That answer did not calm anything down. It infuriated survivors, transparency advocates, Democrats, and a large part of Trump's own base, many of whom believed the administration had promised to expose the people Epstein protected, served, or compromised.The larger problem is that Epstein remains a trust-destroying scandal because the public has never believed the government gave a full accounting of who enabled him, who benefited from him, and who was protected when the system closed ranks. The White House tried to contain the issue, but the response only deepened the perception that powerful names were still being shielded. With Congress continuing to demand answers, major figures like Bill Gates being pulled into closed-door questioning, and polling showing broad public skepticism, the Epstein files have become more than a legal matter. They are now a political grenade, exposing the gap between campaign promises, institutional self-protection, and the public's belief that elite accountability is still mostly theater.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:Inside Trump's White House, the Epstein Files Caused a Freakout - The New York Times

As the Trump administration launches economic wars against Iran and Canada, the Washington Post reports on Trump's war with a third adversary: his weight. Jon, Tommy, and Lovett calculate Trump's BMI and then break down Scott Bessent invoking World War II when announcing new Iranian sanctions and Trump's new 50% tariffs on Canadian imports. They then turn to the midterms to discuss Susan Collins skipping out on a campaign event with JD Vance, Mike Rogers' attempt to distance himself from AIPAC, and Democrats' growing chances to flip Ohio blue. Then, Congressman Seth Moulton talks to Jon about the Massachusetts Senate primary and why he's decided to challenge Senator Ed Markey.

On Monday's Mark Levin Show, AI and data centers are the new boogeyman. And the ones complaining the loudest are so-called conservatives. According to a poll, 71% of Americans oppose data centers. But what is it they oppose? There's a lot of lies and misinformation floating around, like what happened during COVID. It's democracy vs. mobocracy, and people are throwing their principles to the wind. While West Virginia welcomes data centers, California wants to ban them. People who call themselves conservatives preach against socialism then demand government kill an entire industry? This is where the rubber hits the road: conservatives must either support what's right or join the mob. We're capitalists, this is who we are. America must support new technologies that will create new jobs and secure our future. Also, people are always distrustful of new things, but we can't be afraid to stand up to the mob. We say we're America First but oppose an industry that will keep America as the world's tech leader? We say we want to hire Americans over foreigners but try to ban a new industry that will create jobs? The hypocrisy is thick. Then, Abdul El-Sayed on MS NOW complains that Trump thinks he's less American. And why wouldn't he? El-Sayed says the election is about pocketbook issues like healthcare and affordability but with someone like El-Sayed, this election is about his ties to terror groups. It is about sharia law. It is about his father's ties. It is his association with Hasan Piker who thinks America deserved 9/11. Did El-Sayed's parents or grandparents fight for this country? Don't be fooled by Islamists who pretend to be someone they're not. Finally, JD Vance says we must be ruthless in our exercise of power. That's wrong. There is a difference between positive power and negative power. While negative power is the ruthless use of power, positive power is power exercised properly in line with the Constitution and the Declaration's emphasis on the individual. The Constitution spells out who gets what kind of power and how much, and the further away we get from the Constitution, the closer we come to authoritarianism and tyranny. The key point: power must be exercised legitimately. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices

Pat went to Canada and came home with a souvenir that was not on the itinerary. He said it straight: Canadian germs for the win. Yesterday's show took a sick day with him. He's back now, and the friendly neighbor routine is getting less friendly by the hour. Watch it. This is the first show back after the trip knocked him off the air. Not a medical special. Not a travel diary. A host who crossed the border, got flattened, missed a Monday, and sat down at the mic anyway.

According to Mary and Andrew, recent moves by President Trump's administration have been following a pattern: “If at first you don't succeed, try try again.” The co-hosts begin by breaking down the flurry of news surrounding mail voting, starting with Monday afternoon's decision by the Supreme Court to allow President Trump's executive order curtailing mail voting to proceed, though not issuing a decision on the merits of the order. They discuss that decision in conjunction with the Postal Service's announcement on Friday for a final rule that would comply with the executive order, a move that Andrew calls a proxy for the government to “have the Postal Service act in a way that has a clearly disproportionate impact on certain voters.” Then, a conversation about birthright citizenship after a motion was filed yesterday rejecting Trump's executive orders that attempt to limit the legal principle. Plus, an analysis of the Second and Ninth Circuit Court's rulings disqualifying U.S. Attorneys that were improperly appointed by Trump and a quick nod to Minnesota suing the governor of Texas for not extraditing an ICE agent accused of shooting a man in Minneapolis.  Tune in next week as we switch to Wednesday morning releases — and video editions of Main Justice available on YouTube.

Glenn discusses one of the biggest debates from his time off: the cost of burritos. Have burrito prices gotten out of hand? Glenn lays out the facts and explains how both sides miss the bigger picture and how inflation has made life much less affordable across the board. Glenn reacts to a statement by Vice President JD Vance in which he invoked Depression-era populist governor Huey Long. Glenn also goes through the controversial history of Huey Long. Glenn explains why President Trump's actions in Iran are the right move, how Iran is feeling economic pressure, and how this may end. Have we already won the Iranian conflict? Glenn brings on Jason to share recent statistics showing Iran is losing this conflict. Sports columnist Matt Calkins joins to discuss how he resigned from the Seattle Times after it blocked his piece regarding protecting women's sports. Patrick Bet-David, Valuetainment founder and host of “The PBD Podcast,” joins to discuss what you can expect at the Vault 26 conference. Glenn and Patrick also discuss Trump's “economic D-Day” for Iran and his moderation of the debate between Andrew Wilson and Candace Owens. Learn more about your ad choices.

I seem to have pissed off the fraudsters — multiple raging psychos sent me threats over the weekend, including the owner of an Indian restaurant in New Jersey. He tried to quickly delete the threatening message ... but I got the screenshot first. Now he's threatening to sue ME for exposing his own words. There are consequences for your actions, and this would not be the first time I've gotten someone convicted over sending threats my way. The Left continues to advocate for more violence and face no consequences for it. Radical commie Hasan Piker spent the weekend mocking the assassination of Charlie Kirk — yet he's somehow still put on a pedestal by the Left. The Trump administration is really starting to crack down on visa fraud — and bringing back a new and improved $100,000 H-1B fee. Vice President JD Vance mentions that this type of fraud is one of the administration's top priorities. Who's to say who can and can't play in the WNBA? Former NBA player and aspiring WNBA player Enes Kanter Freedom showed up at a WNBA game wearing a shirt with the definition of “woman" — but it was too much for one of the players, who lost it. Somehow Enes was targeted and ejected from the stadium in what could be a big transphobic hate crime committed by the league.   ► Catch up on my H-1B visa investigations:  https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLkJEwf2wliqrtNlYs9D78nmE_Gnja_PpC    ► Email me at saratips@blazemedia.com if you have uncovered potential fraud in your area.   ► Subscribe to my second YouTube channel: https://www.youtube.com/@SaraGonzalesTX?sub_confirmation=1    0:00 - Exposing Threats Against Me 7:20 - Indian Restaurateur THREATENS Me 27:52 - Hasan Piker Mocks Charlie Kirk 35:16 - JD Vance Warns H-1B Fraudsters 40:24 - WNBA Hate Crime Learn more about your ad choices.

DFW Airport is moving forward with Islamic foot-washing stations inside Terminal D bathrooms, and the details are out. The privately funded project registers at around $300,000 and puts dedicated Wudu ablution stations in both the men's and women's concourse restrooms. Officials say it's about keeping floors dry and sinks intact after travelers wash their feet in regular fixtures. Completion is targeted for the end of the year. Terminal D handles the bulk of international traffic. Similar stations already exist at places like Chicago O'Hare and Houston Bush, and DFW has had limited ablution facilities near its interfaith chapel for years. This expands the practice into the main restrooms. The filing calls it basic infrastructure for safety and sanitation. Plenty of Americans are asking a different question: why special plumbing for one ritual while every other traveler just uses the sinks? This isn't about private funding or wet floors alone. It's about what airports decide is worth accommodating in the middle of Texas. Watch the full conversation for the filing details, the practical defense, the cultural signal, and the commonsense pushback. Pat also covered: JD Vance calls out socialism and the fraud epidemic running through America Did Stacey Abrams fall asleep while interviewing Kamala Harris? James Talarico's girlfriend is real — and we have the footage Savannah Guthrie body-shames Chrissy Metz on national television Rosie O'Donnell deadnames her own daughter five times in one interview Would you use a special foot-washing station at the airport if it was there?

He covers Vice President JD Vance's rally at a Middletown, Ohio steel plant, where he invoked the late Louisiana Governor Huey Long and the story of programmer Kevin Flanagan to make his case against offshoring American jobs. Aaron also covers ActBlue co-founder Matt DeBergalis pleading the Fifth Amendment before House investigators, the FBI seizing former Congressman Eric Swalwell's devices in a misconduct probe, and ICE's growing enforcement operation against Haitian nationals in Ohio. He touches on a disturbing Miami child abuse case involving an illegal immigrant mother, and new data showing a surge in Catholic ministry participation on college campuses. Aaron closes with his take on President Trump's Truth Social attack on Tucker Carlson, Marjorie Taylor Greene, and Thomas Massie, and what it means for JD Vance's 2028 prospects.

Jon Herold calls it a boring Monday news cycle but still digs into Trump's newly announced 50 percent tariffs on Canadian autos, parts, and steel starting in 2027, reading through the Truth Social post accusing Canada of running up a 60 billion dollar trade deficit. He plays clips from Treasury Secretary Bessent's rollout of "Operation Economic Outcast," a sweeping sanctions campaign aimed at cutting Iran off from the global economy, and a JD Vance clip on socialism that Jon thinks echoes past comments a little too closely. Other topics include a massive 13.7 billion dollar AI chip deal for Rumble Group, a viral Spencer Pratt rant about "mommy sleuth" TikTok conspiracy culture around Charlie Kirk's death, and a look at USAID fraud reporting. Sponsor reads, chat banter, and some personal football coaching stories round out a slower Monday show.

Danielle Butterfield, executive director of Priorities USA, one of the most important PACs in Democratic politics, joins Dan to talk about Priorities' attempts to reshape how Democratic campaigns think about targeting voters on the internet. She breaks down their research into how voters are looking for information on search engines, why campaigns need to rethink how they talk to voters on YouTube, and how Priorities USA is getting out ahead of 2028 by trying to frame JD Vance and Marco Rubio in swing voters' minds before the presidential election begins. Hate listening to ads?

Live Aug 23, 2026(Yaron & Nikos Dialogues, Episode 11)Patrick Deneen & The Post Liberal Right | Yaron & Nikos DialoguesPatrick Deneen says liberalism failed because it succeeded — freedom gave people too much of it, and now he wants a new elite to rule in the name of the "common good." Is that a critique of the West, or the oldest excuse for tyranny wearing a Notre Dame faculty badge?Patrick Deneen says America needs "regime change" — not at the ballot box, but a quiet takeover by a new elite who'll rule for the "common good" instead of individual rights. He calls it postliberalism. Yaron Brook calls it what it actually is: aristocracy with a syllabus.Deneen's bestselling books — Why Liberalism Failed and Regime Change — have become the intellectual bible of the post-liberal right, blurbed by Obama, quoted by JD Vance, cited by the "common good conservatives" reshaping the GOP. His argument: individual freedom itself is the disease. The cure is a ruling class willing to override your choices for the sake of the collective.In this episode of Yaron & Nikos Dialogues, Yaron Brook and Nikos Sotirakopoulos take Deneen's ideas apart line by line — where "common good" politics actually leads, why every attack on individualism ends up defending the same thing (power over you), and why the post-liberal right and the woke left are closer than either side wants to admit. If you've heard people say liberalism "went too far," this episode explains exactly what they mean — and why they're wrong.Main Topics: 00:00 — Cold open: what "regime change" actually means in Deneen's own words 06:30 — Who is Patrick Deneen, and why did Obama put him on a reading list? 15:00 — "Liberalism failed because it succeeded" — unpacking the core claim 26:00 — The "common good" con: how collectivism always smuggles itself in through a nice-sounding phrase 38:00 — Aristopopulism: Deneen's plan for a new elite to rule over the "many" 50:00 — Is this Catholic integralism with a populist paint job? 1:02:00 — Where the post-liberal right and the woke left secretly agreeLive Audience Questions: 1:14:00 — Is Deneen just describing real problems badly, or is his solution the actual danger? 1:20:30 — Does JD Vance actually believe this stuff, or is he just borrowing the vocabulary? 1:27:00 — Can a "new elite" ever rule for anyone but itself? 1:34:00 — Is national conservatism just socialism with incense and a flag? 1:41:00 — What's the actual liberal (classical) answer to the loneliness and rootlessness Deneen describes?

Daily Wire Managing Editor Dylan Houseman joins DC Bureau Chief Tim Rice to unpack the growing debate over JD Vance, the 2028 Republican primary, and what happens when a political movement starts treating its next leader as inevitable. Houseman explains the argument behind his latest column, “Since When Has a Little Anointing Ever Hurt Anyone?”, and why he thinks conservatives should allow room for genuine disagreements over foreign policy, economics, religion, and the future of the Republican coalition. The conversation also explores the rise of “everything is an op” politics, the dangers of dismissing critics as foreign agents or RINOs, whether Trump's coalition can survive without Trump at the center of it, and why a Vance succession may be far less straightforward than many Republicans assume. Plus, the wild-card possibility that Donald Trump Jr. could emerge as a serious factor in 2028. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices

Original Air Date: April 9th, 2026 During the Pentagon press briefing alongside Joint Chiefs Chairman Gen. Dan Caine, Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth described the two-week ceasefire with Iran as the result of a decisive U.S. military campaign. He stated, “Operation Epic Fury was a historic and overwhelming victory on the battlefield — a capital-V military victory,” claiming it decimated Iran's missile program, navy, and defense industry, rendering its military “combat-ineffective for years to come.” Hegseth added that “Iran begged for this ceasefire, and we all know it,” asserting the regime was “out of options and out of time.” He emphasized that U.S. forces are “not going anywhere,” saying “we'll be hanging around” in the region to monitor compliance, ensure that Iran never acquires a nuclear weapon, and remain “prepared to defend, prepared to go on offense,” and “restart at a moment's notice” if the truce fails. Hegseth noted that “it takes time sometimes for ceasefires to take hold” and framed the pause as giving “a chance at real peace and a real deal,” while praising President Trump for choosing “mercy” instead of further crippling Iran's economy.
