The Iran Contra Affair had other, far reaching, and devastating consequences. Because of close relationship between the CIA and the Contra rebels in Nicaragua, drug smuggling and the lucrative cocaine trade in disaffected communities in the United States became increasingly prevalent. As the CIA turned a blind eye to the crimes it was directly or indirectly condoning, the United States started the War on Drugs.Sources:Mayer, Jane, and Doyle McManus. Landslide.

The Townsend Plan and the Radio Priest Guest: David Pietrusza Book Title: Roosevelt Sweeps Nation: FDR's 1936 Landslide and the Triumph of the Liberal Ideal Two unconventional figures heavily influenced Roosevelt's 1936 strategy: Dr. Francis Townsend and Father Charles Coughlin. Townsend, a physician, gained a massive following with his plan to provide $200 a month to everyone over 60, provided they retired and spent the money within 30 days. Though Roosevelt initially disliked the idea of "government checks," the political pressure from Townsend Clubs forced his hand. Consequently, Social Security was introduced largely as a reactive measure to neutralize Townsend's momentum. Meanwhile, Father Coughlin, a Canadian-born Roman Catholic priest, became a radio sensation with a voice that rivaled Roosevelt's for intimacy and warmth. Initially a supporter who coined the phrase "Roosevelt or Ruin," Coughlin turned against the President when he felt his influence on monetary policy was ignored. In a surreal meeting arranged by Joseph P. Kennedy at Hyde Park in September 1935 — the morning after Huey Long's death — Coughlin and FDR spent six hours conferring. The meeting failed to reconcile them, and Coughlin soon teamed up with Townsend and Gerald L.K. Smith to form the Union Party. They nominated Congressman William Lemke to run for president, hoping to force the election into the House of Representatives. However, as political amateurs, they struggled to even get on the ballot in major states like New York or California, ultimately failing to derail the Roosevelt machine. (3)

A Landslide Victory and the Birth of a New Era Guest: David Pietrusza Warren G. Harding secured one of the most lopsided victories in history, winning 60% of the popular vote and 404 electoral votes. His victory was fueled by modern advertising techniques, including celebrity endorsements from stars like Al Jolson. On election night, Americans received results through early radio broadcasts and by having numbers projected onto the walls of newspaper offices. While history often views Harding as a weak administrator, Pietrusza contends he was a strong politician who successfully focused on restructuring government and reducing national debt. His presidency ended abruptly with a fatal heart attack in 1923, leading to the famous midnight swearing-in of Calvin Coolidge by his father in Vermont. Coolidge's subsequent presidency was defined by his commitment to public service, modest living, and a philosophy of independent leadership that restored public trust in the executive branch.

The 1936 Landslide and Political Realignment Guest: David Pietrusza Book Title: Roosevelt Sweeps Nation: FDR's 1936 Landslide and the Triumph of the Liberal Ideal Election night 1936 at Hyde Park began with nervous anticipation, as many — including the Literary Digest — still expected a close race. However, early returns from New Haven, Connecticut, showing a 15,000-vote victory for Roosevelt, signaled an impending "swamping" of the Electoral College. Roosevelt himself was shocked by the margins, initially believing the teletype machines were being read incorrectly. The final result was a massive landslide: Roosevelt carried 46 out of 48 states, losing only Maine and Vermont. The victory brought massive coattails, resulting in 74 Democratic Senators and 334 Democratic House members. This election marked the permanent realignment of American politics, creating the modern Democratic coalition. Roosevelt carried 104 of the nation's 106 largest cities, losing only Pasadena and Syracuse. This shift was driven largely by the children of immigrants who had come of age in the 1930s and "flopped down" for Roosevelt. The Literary Digest poll, which had been right for decades, was famously humiliated, having failed to account for the shifting demographics of the electorate. Roosevelt's victory was more than a mandate; it was a total triumph of the liberal ideal and the big-city machine. The President returned to Hyde Park not just as a reelected leader, but as the architect of a new political era that would dominate the American landscape for decades to come. (8)1936

Eleanor Roosevelt and the Campaign Climax Guest: David Pietrusza Book Title: Roosevelt Sweeps Nation: FDR's 1936 Landslide and the Triumph of the Liberal Ideal The 1936 campaign saw the emergence of Eleanor Roosevelt as a political star. While Republicans hid Landon's wife and some Democrats feared Eleanor was "too much" for the public, she became an indispensable asset on the campaign trail. She was particularly vital in securing the African-American vote in Northern cities. While the President refused to support an anti-lynching law for fear of alienating Southern Democrats, Eleanor campaigned for it, effectively allowing the administration to "cover the bases" separately. This outreach was crucial, as African-Americans were the hardest-hit demographic and relied heavily on New Deal relief programs. The campaign reached a fever pitch in October 1936. Despite early polls showing Landon leading, the momentum swung heavily toward Roosevelt by late summer. At a massive rally at Madison Square Garden on Halloween night, Rooseveltdelivered a speech that "would peel paint today," declaring of the "economic royalists" that "I welcome their hatred." The speech was a masterpiece of class warfare; observers noted that the violence and "naked demagoguery" of his delivery were even more powerful than the written words. This aggressive stance countered the Republican argument that the public was tired of the New Deal. Despite an unemployment rate still hovering at 13.9%, Roosevelt's ability to frame himself as the protector of the working class against oppressive wealthy interests solidified his lead heading into election day. (7)

The Selection of Alf Landon and the Republican Field Guest: David Pietrusza Book Title: Roosevelt Sweeps Nation: FDR's 1936 Landslide and the Triumph of the Liberal Ideal The Republican Party in 1936 struggled to find a viable candidate to face Roosevelt's juggernaut. They rejected a return to Herbert Hoover, whose 1928 style was deemed too slow and associated with the initial collapse. Other potential nominees included William Borah, the "Lion of Idaho," a progressive maverick and isolationist whom the Republican Old Guard suspected of being a secret Roosevelt shill. Frank Knox, a former Rough Rider and newspaper man, was also considered, though he was seen as a political amateur. Arthur Vandenberg of Michigan was a more mainstream choice, credited with pushing the FDIC to stabilize banks, but he lacked national appeal. Ultimately, the party settled on Alf Landon, the Governor of Kansas, often called the "Kansas Coolidge." Landon was an unremarkable millionaire who had balanced the budget in Kansas, making him a "rock star" by depressed Republican standards. His path to the nomination was paved by Hearst's endorsement and the fact that he was "none of the above" in a limited talent pool. However, Landon was a terrible radio performer in an era dominated by charismatic speakers. Father Coughlin even advised the Republican chairman to get Landon off the campaign trail, suggesting they "say that he broke a leg" to explain his absence. This lack of charisma, combined with Landon's status as a "progressive Republican" who didn't plan to dismantle the New Deal, left him with a weak and uncompelling message. (6)

Splinter Parties and the Global Shadow Guest: David Pietrusza Book Title: Roosevelt Sweeps Nation: FDR's 1936 Landslide and the Triumph of the Liberal Ideal Beyond populist insurgents, Roosevelt had to contend with the Socialistand Communist parties, which held significant sway in urban centers. The Socialists, led by Norman Thomas, appealed to the intellectual "proto-faction" in New York City, drawing hundreds of thousands of votes. More complex was the role of the Communist Party USA, led by Earl Browder, who was hand-picked by Stalin for his compliance. Under Stalin's"Popular Front" strategy to combat Hitler, the Communists shifted from attacking Roosevelt as a "tool of Wall Street" to offering a deceptive endorsement. Browder realized an open endorsement would be the "kiss of death," so the party ran its own campaign while focusing its firepower on Roosevelt's opponents. This radicalism extended to the Midwest with the Farmer-Labor Party, led by figures like Minnesota Governor Floyd Olson. Olson, a radical agrarian who also harbored presidential ambitions for 1940, presided over a volatile political climate where political violence was not uncommon. These movements reflected a "different political geography" where radical agrarianism and urban socialism threatened to peel away parts of the Democratic electorate. Roosevelt remained wary of these factions, particularly in New York and California, where they were most active. Internationally, the brewing Spanish Civil War and the rise of European dictators added urgency to the domestic political landscape, as the Communists sought to keep Roosevelt in power as a potential ally against fascism. (4)

William Randolph Hearst and the "Soak the Rich" Tensions Guest: David Pietrusza Book Title: Roosevelt Sweeps Nation: FDR's 1936 Landslide and the Triumph of the Liberal Ideal One of the most formidable figures Roosevelt had to manage was media tycoon William Randolph Hearst, who controlled a vast empire of 28 newspapers and eight radio stations. Hearst's political allegiances were notoriously fickle; he had supported Roosevelt in 1932 only after caving to pressure to avoid a candidate he liked even less. However, as the New Deal moved leftward, Hearst became increasingly hostile. His power was so great that in 1934 he visited Adolf Hitler in Berlin. While Hearst claimed the meeting was brief, other accounts suggest a longer discussion where Hearst attempted to raise the issue of the persecution of Jews, though the visual of the meeting severely damaged his reputation. The final break between Hearst and Roosevelt came over the President's "Soak the Rich" tax program. Hearst, who earned over $100 million a year, was outraged by the proposal to raise taxes on the wealthy. In response, Roosevelt privately noted that it might be necessary to "throw 46 men who make a million dollars a year to the wolves," including Hearst. Hearst subsequently ordered his editors to promote Republican candidate Alf Landon, using his "column inches" to saturate the public with pro-Landon content. Despite this media onslaught, Hearst's popularity was in decline, and Roosevelt's willingness to confront the nation's wealthiest interests resonated with a public still struggling through the Great Depression. (5)

Populist Threats and the "Share Our Wealth" Movement Guest: David Pietrusza Book Title: Roosevelt Sweeps Nation: FDR's 1936 Landslide and the Triumph of the Liberal Ideal As Roosevelt prepared for the 1936 election, he faced significant pressure from the populist left, most notably embodied by Huey Long of Louisiana. Long's "Share Our Wealth" program proposed seizing assets from millionaires to provide every American family with a guaranteed income, car, and radio. Though Long was assassinated in September 1935, his legacy and the millions of members in his clubs remained a potent threat to Roosevelt's base. Long's strategy had been to siphon enough votes to elect a Republican in 1936, hoping the ensuing failure would lead the nation to turn to him as the "man on the white horse" in 1940. In the South, Eugene "Old Gene" Talmadge of Georgia represented a different brand of populism, blending race-baiting with Jeffersonian conservatism. Talmadge refused to fund New Deal welfare programs despite local need, accusing the administration of communist influence. In January 1936, he hosted a rally in Macon, Georgia, where supporters displayed Confederate flags and engaged in aggressive red-baiting. These challengers highlighted the fragile nature of Roosevelt's 1932 coalition, which relied on the "solid South" despite its crushing Jim Crow laws. The President had to neutralize these "crackpot ideas" while addressing the genuine suffering of the Great Depression. This internal party friction necessitated a strategy that could bridge the gap between radical populists and the traditional Democratic machine, all while the nation looked toward the growing needs of the elderly and the unemployed. (2)

The Passing of Louis Howe and the Challenge of the Right Guest: David Pietrusza Book Title: Roosevelt Sweeps Nation: FDR's 1936 Landslide and the Triumph of the Liberal Ideal In April 1936, the Roosevelt administration faced the looming loss of Louis Howe, the President's most trusted political advisor and mastermind behind his rise from New York State Senator to the White House. Howe's death marked a critical transition, leaving Roosevelt to navigate a reelection campaign without his "acerbically cynical" mentor. Beyond his political utility, Howe was a vital link between the President and Eleanor Roosevelt, having encouraged her early political activism following the discovery of Franklin's1917 affair. With Howe's health failing due to heavy smoking and bronchitis, Eleanor took a lead role in his care, even arranging his funeral. Simultaneously, Roosevelt faced a growing challenge from the right wing of his own party, led by former mentor Al Smith. Smith, disaffected by Roosevelt's "forgotten man" rhetoric and viewing the New Deal as class warfare, joined wealthy interests like the DuPonts to form the American Liberty League. Smith famously lambasted the New Deal at the Mayflower Hotel, claiming New Dealers had "stolen the socialist program." Despite Smith's following among Catholics and the Northeastern conservative elite, his opposition provided Roosevelt with a convenient target. The President leaned into the conflict, framing his campaign against "rich guys in silk hats" whose capitalism he had saved, yet who remained ungrateful. This tension set the stage for a campaign defined by demographic shifts and a battle for the soul of the Democratic Party. (1)

History often remembers elections by who won and who lost. But some elections matter because they reveal deeper changes taking place beneath the surface. The election of 1972 was one of those moments. Many of us consider it to be the landslide that changed America. Those of us who witnessed that time period remember that only four years earlier, America had experienced one of the most turbulent periods in its history. The assassinations of Doctor Martin Luther King Jr. and Robert Kennedy, riots in cities across the nation, anti-war protests, and the bitter divisions of the Vietnam era left many Americans wondering what had happened to the country they thought they knew. By 1972, those wounds had not healed. In fact, in many cases, they seemed to have gotten worse. The war continued. Protests continued. The arguments over race, culture, and the future of America continued. Yet something important had changed. Many Americans were no longer simply reacting to the turmoil. They were choosing sides. And in November of 1972, they made their choice overwhelmingly clear. The Long Shadow of 1968 For myself, the years between 1968 and 1972 felt unsettled. In 1968 I had graduated from high school in Houston and in 1969 I had enlisted in the Coast Guard amid one of the most turbulent periods in modern American history. By 1972, many of the arguments that had erupted during the 1960s were still raging. Yet something had changed. Americans were no longer simply arguing about the future. Increasingly, they were choosing sides. The Vietnam War remained a constant presence in American life. Young men continued to receive draft notices. Families continued to watch casualty reports on the evening news. College campuses became centers of protest. Then came May 1970. At Kent State University, National Guard troops opened fire on student demonstrators. I was serving as a radio man at the Coast Guard Radio Station in San Francisco. Emotions ran high as people found out that: Four students were killed. The images shocked the nation. For some Americans, the protests represented necessary dissent. For others, they symbolized disorder and disrespect. The divide widened. The same events were producing entirely different reactions depending on who was watching. Nixon's Appeal Richard Nixon understood something many politicians had missed. Millions of Americans were exhausted. They were tired of violence. Tired of unrest. Tired of uncertainty. In speech after speech, Nixon spoke of what he called the "silent majority." These were Americans who were not marching in the streets, not appearing on television, and not leading protests. They were raising families. Working jobs. Paying mortgages. Watching the evening news and wondering whether anyone was still in control. Nixon promised stability. Order. Gradual change rather than revolution. Whether one agreed with him or not, his message resonated with millions of voters. George McGovern and a Different Vision The Democrats nominated Senator George McGovern. McGovern represented a very different vision of America. He opposed the Vietnam War. He appealed strongly to younger voters, activists, and many who believed the country needed more dramatic social change. His campaign energized parts of the Democratic Party. But it also exposed growing divisions within the coalition that had dominated American politics since Franklin Roosevelt. Many working-class voters who had once been reliable Democrats felt increasingly disconnected from the party's direction. The old alliance was beginning to crack. The Great Realignment Begins The election results were stunning. Nixon carried forty-nine states. McGovern won only Massachusetts and the District of Columbia. Even many states that had supported Democratic candidates for generations voted Republican. It was one of the largest electoral victories in American history. Yet the significance of 1972 was not simply the size of Nixon's victory. The election revealed new political fault lines that would shape the decades ahead. White Southern voters continued moving toward the Republican Party. Many suburban voters became increasingly Republican. Working-class ethnic voters who had once formed the backbone of Democratic strength began drifting away. The New Deal coalition that had dominated American politics for nearly forty years was weakening. A new political map was emerging. The Contradictions Yet even as Nixon celebrated victory, trouble was already brewing. Just months earlier, operatives connected to Nixon's reelection campaign had been caught breaking into Democratic headquarters at the Watergate complex. At the time, almost nobody imagined that a minor break-in would eventually bring down a president. After all, at the time, the incident seemed minor. Few Americans paid much attention. The landslide victory overshadowed everything. But history would soon reveal that one of the greatest electoral triumphs in American history carried within it the seeds of one of the greatest political scandals. For the moment, however, most Americans saw only the victory. The scandal was still hidden in the shadows. Closing Looking back, 1972 was more than a landslide election. It was a snapshot of a nation searching for stability after years of upheaval. The arguments that had erupted during the 1960s had not disappeared. But voters were beginning to sort themselves into new political coalitions. The old Democratic dominance was fading. A modern Republican coalition was taking shape. The political map Americans recognize today was beginning to emerge. And while Watergate would soon shake the nation once again, the deeper story of 1972 was not simply about Richard Nixon. It was about millions of Americans trying to decide what kind of country would emerge from the turmoil of the previous decade. In many ways, that debate continues to this day. "At the time, none of us knew how this story was going to end." Looking back, 1972 was more than a landslide election. I still have a Presidential Certificate of Appreciation from those years, signed by Richard Nixon during my service in the Coast Guard. At the time, it was simply a certificate from the Commander-in-Chief. Like most Americans, I had no way of knowing how dramatically the story of that presidency would unfold. History has a way of doing that. We live through events one day at a time, rarely seeing where they will lead. Only years later do we begin to understand how the pieces fit together. And in many ways, the America that emerged from 1972 is still the America we live in today.

HUGE WIN for the America First movement! President Trump just delivered another decisive blow to the Washington establishment, as Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton crushed RINO Senator John Cornyn in a massive 27-point landslide. Paxton destroyed Cornyn 64% to 36% in the Texas Republican Senate primary runoff — proving once again that Trump's endorsement is unstoppable and the Republican base is demanding real fighters, not career politicians. This runoff victory further proves that President Trump remains the most powerful force in Republican politics. While Washington insiders and moderate Republicans warned against backing Paxton, the voters of Texas overwhelmingly chose the fighter who stood with Trump over the longtime establishment senator. We also cover: Does the Bible talk about abortion? Fox News' Alexis McAdams called a “NAZI bitch.” Steve Jobs CHANGED the world. Zohran Mamdani wealth distribution is coming. RFK Jr. wrangles two snakes in Florida. The message is clear: Conservatives are done with spineless establishment Republicans. The MAGA movement is alive, stronger than ever, and ready to take back the Senate with real warriors in 2026. If you're tired of RINOs and want America First leaders who actually deliver, hit LIKE
