Over the last decade, centrist Democrats have diligent courted Never Trump Republicans, hoping that this cohort could help create a new consensus politics to oppose the MAGA coalition. From the start, this strategy seemed flawed: after all, this faction is very small and also carries a lot of baggage. In particular, neo-conservatives such as William Kristol and David Frum, now Never Trump stalwarts, were responsible for two of the biggest foreign policy disasters in American history, George W. Bush's War on Terror and the invasion of Iraq.Have this Never Trump conservatives learned from history? Alas, as my colleague David Klion points out in a recent column, many of them haven't. Kristol and Frum are now cheerleading the attack on Iran (although to be fair their former ally Robert Kagan is more skeptical). I talked to David about the neocons and why they remain a pernicious force in American politics even if they vote against Trump. Advertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy

In this episode, Aaron Simmons stepped up to host this conversation with Robert Talisse while I'm leading the Bonhoeffer travel-learning trip. They unpack one of the most pressing issues of our time - this wild paradox where the very thing democracy needs (us banding together with like-minded folks to get stuff done) is also the thing that's slowly destroying our ability to see people who disagree with us as actual human beings worth listening to. Rob brilliantly unpacked how we've gotten to this place where our political identities have become so central to who we are that we'd rather our kids marry someone of a different faith than someone who votes differently, and how belief polarization turns us into these echo-chamber dwellers who can't imagine that reasonable people could possibly disagree with us. But here's the beautiful thing - they didn't just diagnose the problem; they talked about hope, about finding spaces where we can be human together without politics being the main event, like Aaron's MAGA-flag camping story. This conversation is exactly why we're doing the Democracy in Tension Summit this summer, because we need to figure out how to navigate these tensions without losing our souls or our democracy in the process. ONLINE SUMMIT:⁠⁠ Democracy in Tension - NAVIGATING THE INTERLOCKING CRISES OF DEMOCRACY AND RELIGION ⁠⁠ Democracy today faces profound challenges – polarization, inequality, populist authoritarianism, and widespread cynicism are eroding the foundations of democratic life. Yet, what if democracy's greatest strength lies not in eliminating these tensions, but in productively embracing them?The summit will navigate the complex terrain between political equality and social justice, liberal freedom and democratic sovereignty, and ethical demands and political action.

Democratic New Yorkers went to the polls this week amid a heat wave and chose 33-year-old Democratic Socialist Zohran Mamdani as their mayoral candidate. The win has spawned meltdowns from both sides of the political aisle, but it raises an important question for Democrats. What does this upset mean for the future of the party? Then, Emergency Medicine Physician Dr. Dana Kass joins The Weekend to discuss Robert F. Kennedy Jr.'s plan to walk back vaccine recommendations.

Conversations on Groong - June 28, 2025In this episode of Conversations on Groong, retired Lt. Col. Karen Kwiatkowski joins us to unpack the so-called “12-Day War” between Israel and Iran, and the troubling ways in which Donald Trump has redefined his “America First” doctrine to justify U.S. involvement. We examine Trump's strikes on Iranian nuclear sites and the muted response from MAGA influencers. The conversation also explores Israel's goals, the regional fallout, the near-total silence from Congress, and what this moment says about the erosion of anti-war sentiment in America.Topics:Israel's War on IranWhere did Trump's America 1st Go?Guest: Karen KwiatkowskiHosts:Hovik ManucharyanAsbed BedrossianEpisode 450 | Recorded: Jun 26, 2025SHOW NOTES: https://podcasts.groong.org/450VIDEO: https://youtu.be/mk9DqOxG-i8#iranwar #iran #israel #usa #maga #netanyahuSubscribe and follow us everywhere you are: linktr.ee/groong

Ordained minister, Dr. Dennis Hall, and his special guest Dorothy Little, accomplished Bible teacher and End Times scholar react to CNN's guest referring to Sen. Ted Cruz and Speaker of the house Mike Johnson as rapture preppers. She asserted that there is a whole sect of MAGA porters that support Israel because they want the Jews to be in Israel so that Jesus can come back for the rapture. Dr. Hall and his guest spent some time scribing what the Bible says about the rapture, a time when the Lord will gather his followers to meet with him in the air. The different views regarding the tribulation are also discussed. It is pointed out that Peter in his second letter warns, “Above all you must understand that in the last days scoffers will come, scoffing and following their own desires.” Each of these personalities reacted to the idea that many people believe that everyone who does good will be raptured. As the podcast ends the listeners are advised that their rapture preparation should involve being diligent and vigilant and busy doing the Lord's work. They pointed out that God wants everyone in his heavenly kingdom and that they should not delay in seeking salvation. The podcast closes by stressing to the listeners that they should give Jesus a chance to prove who he says he is!

As New York City celebrates Zohran Mamdani's primary win, MAGA, Wall Street, and a handful of Democrats succumb to socialist paranoia. Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth lashes out at the press after CNN reports that last weekend's airstrikes barely set back Iran's nuclear program. President Trump pressures Congress to pass his Big Bullshit Bill by July 4th, despite a new ruling from the Senate Parliamentarian that could sink it altogether. Jon and Dan react to Senator Mitch McConnell's claim that "people back home" will "get over" Medicaid cuts, the administration's desperate attempt to make their Iran strikes look like a success, and offer Zohran-skeptical Democrats some honest advice about what their voters want. Then, Jon talks to Congressman Robert Garcia, the new top Democrat on the House Oversight Committee, about investigating ICE and why he thinks Stephen Miller is the "biggest piece of shit in the country."

Listen to the rest of this premium episode by subscribing at patreon.com/knowyourenemy.Donald Trump's rise in U.S. politics over the past decade has been inextricable from his "America First" foreign policy and withering criticisms of the Iraq War, nation building, and both the neoconservatism that led the Republican Party to disaster during George W. Bush's presidency and the Washington establishment that still thought America could police the world. Trump's message of a restrained foreign policy and pledge to avoid getting dragged into forever wars especially seemed to resonate as he ran to take back the presidency in 2024—there was no end in sight to the war between Ukraine and Russia, and Israel was committing genocide in Gaza as Bibi Netanyahu walked all over an exhausted, only occasionally lucid Biden.But less than half a year into President Trump's second term and the failure negotiations with Iran, Israel bombed that country's nuclear facilities and assassinated their negotiators and nuclear scientists—and just over a week later, so did Trump when he ordered the dropping of massive "bunker buster" bombs to try to destroy the nuclear facilities Israel could not.In this episode, we once again talk to executive editor of The American Conservative, Curt Mills, a leading voice of the restraint and realism wing on the right, to try to understand the war within MAGA set off by the "Twelve Day War" with Iran. Why did Trump bomb Iran? Who was he listening to, or not, as he made that decision? How did the various factions within the MAGA movement respond, and what is the state of play currently in Trump World? What was Israel's role in all this? And how much longer will Trump tolerate Netanyahu's constant efforts to get the American military to fight in Israel's wars? We take up these questions, and more.Sources:Ian Ward, "The MAGA Split Over Israel," Politico, June 13, 2025Joe Gould, et al, "MAGA Largely Falls in Line on Trump's Iran Strikes," Politico, June 21, 2025Katy Balls, "Trump is Taking Fire Over 'Forever Wars,' but MAGA's Real Battle Awaits," The Times of London, June 22, 2025Jude Russo, "What Next?"

Dan breaks down the fractured response within the MAGA coalition, uncovering the religious and ideological fault lines behind the debate. The episode then turns to the Supreme Court's latest rulings, including: Gender-affirming care for minors Deportation policy limits The reach of nationwide injunctions Parental rights around LGBTQ+ inclusive education Dan highlights the Christian nationalist undertones shaping public discourse and judicial outcomes. He ends with a rare note of optimism, pointing to a surprising cross-ideological ruling upholding the Affordable Care Act as a sign that compromise is still possible.

President Trump's big budget bill is in some trouble after the Senate parlimentarian ruled that big chunks of it can't pass via a simple majority. That enraged MAGA: Marjorie Taylor Greene unleashed a furious rant demanding that Senate Majority Leader John Thune fire the parliamentarian. Other top MAGA figures, like Senator Tommy Tuberville and Representative Greg Steube, angrily demanded the same. Though Thune says he won't take this plunge, MAGA's anger could escalate, and the demand threatens to further undermine liberal democracy. All this comes as Trump's general approval is sliding in many new polls, disapproval of Trump is spiking on many major issues, and the budget measure is absolutely tanking. We talked to journalist Sarah Posner, author of good books on the religious right and its impact on MAGA. She explains what Trump's sliding numbers mean to MAGA, why MAGA's anger at the parliamentarian really matters, what's next for the budget bill, and how MAGA fury is partly rooted in Christian Nationalism.

Recent weeks have made deep-seated schisms in both parties explode to the surface. Whether the parties can figure out how to bridge them -- not to mention the larger chasm between the Democratic and Republican parties -- will determine what happens in the 2026 midterm elections and beyond. On the Democratic side, the split between mainline Democrats and progressives erupted after Zohran Mamdani's victory in the New York City mayoral primary. For the Republicans, the conflict pivots around Donald Trump's influence and the emerging tensions between traditional political conservatives and the MAGA faction.Matt Robison is joined by Matt Wylie, a top Republican political consultant, to explore these intra-party conflicts, the role of ideological and affective polarization among voters, and the potential impact on future elections. 00:00 Introduction: Political Schisms05:55 Strategic Implications for Democrats23:06 The Role of Ideological and Affective Polarization35:39 The MAGA Dilemma43:05 The Dysfunction in Congress53:03 The Abdication of Responsibility58:22 The Need for Coherent Opposition01:04:08 Concluding Thoughts and Future Discussions

So many people are surprised that RFK Jr would push smart devices for health, recently stating: “My vision that is every American is wearing a wearable within four years." The goal is, use them to… MAHA. But RFK Jr has been a proponent of the smart grid for years, having said over a decade ago we could use this grid to turn off power in someone's house to save the planet. MAHA is equally shocked RFK Jr is facilitating universal shots and a plan to put them in “all Americans.” Others, if not surprised, have reluctantly embraced cryptocurrency, smart cars, and even war. What this proves is the USA cannot be defeated with physical conventional warfare, but with decades of the psychological type and the optics of red, white, and blue, it is not only possible but very simple. *The is the FREE archive, which includes advertisements.

There's something fishy about what Philip Kadish calls The Great White Hoax. It's his new book about America's long con - how racist scientific hoaxes have shaped two centuries of racist politics. From the 1840 Census Scandal to Henry Ford to George Wallace, Kadish exposes the conmen who have tried to sell racism to America. But here's the chilling twist: many of these fraudsters knew exactly what they were doing. They weren't true believers - they were cynical opportunists who saw profit in peddling fake science to justify white supremacy, creating elaborate deceptions that sometimes fooled even legitimate scientists. 1. Many racist "scientific" theories were deliberate, cynical frauds, not misguided beliefs"The thing that really characterizes the particular thread that I am following in my book and things that I was finding is that they all involved varying degrees of a kind of cynical, very self-aware, purposeful deception."2. The 1840 Census created the template for American scientific racism through knowing falsification"So this was a case that was starting out as an accident, but then he knowingly investigated it, saw the falseness, and then re-certified it, and that information was then used in the defense of slavery for decades."3. Authority and social credibility mattered more than actual scientific expertise"Madison Grant... did not have a degree in biology. He was trained as a lawyer... the reason he was trusted about race, all of these politicians and wealthy philanthropists, is because, A, he came from a very wealthy family himself."4. The hoax pattern shifted but didn't disappear after World War II"It became socially unacceptable to be that, to be making such openly racist arguments... And things shift into a kind of coded mode... while we're talking about state's rights or he's developing a language talking about the federal government as a tyranny."5. Many hoaxes continued to influence people even after being exposed as fraudulent"Over half of the hoaxes that I described in the book were revealed as hoaxes in the midst of them. And yet were still embraced by many people and often for a long time after."I'm in two minds on this. One the one hand, Kadish' expose of two centuries of selling fraudulent scientific racism is chilling. On the other hand, I wonder if progressive historians like Kadish are themselves becoming overly preoccupied with race and racism. I'm also not convinced that the MAGA movement, RFK Jr or Fox News are a return to the overt racism of D.W. Griffith's movie Birth of a Nation or the “science” of eugenicists like Madison Grant. History, particularly American history, is too complex to simply repeat itself endlessly. Sometimes it rhymes and sometimes it doesn't. And sometimes, the historical hoax is in the hoax.

Bob Babbage joins Kruser to talk about the MAGA challengers coming for Rep. Thomas Massie, and asks if Nate Morris will be the Trump-backed candidate for US Senate. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

On Wednesday's Mark Levin Show, Zohran Mamdani, the Democratic nominee for mayor of New York City, is a Marxist and an Islamist who supports Hamas slogans, the BDS movement, and holds anti-Semitic views, though he reportedly denies these claims. If voted Mayor of NYC he will cause New York City's decline, with good people leaving and radical Islamists arriving.  Mamdani's positions, including his criticism of Israel and Marxist beliefs, are incompatible with American values and pose a threat to New York City, particularly given its large Jewish population. Mamdani's nomination reflects a broader strategy by Islamists to infiltrate American institutions. We need to confront these ideologies directly. Also, ‘Pardon Me' Steve Bannon is deceiving hardworking, middle-class, blue-collar conservatives and MAGA supporters. Bannon is a con artist who leaked information against President Trump and his family, resulting in his White House dismissal in Trump's first term. He is fake MAGA, exploiting the conservative movement for personal gain; we need to recognize his deception. He is the establishment and is undermining Trump's presidency. Later, Trump explained of Truth Social that he was shocked that there was an ongoing legal witch hunt against Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, despite his leadership in a historic victory against Iran. Netanyahu is an unparalleled warrior who eliminated a significant nuclear threat. Trump demands the trial's immediate cancellation or a pardon for Netanyahu. Finally, Rep Byron Donalds calls in and defends Trump's decision to neutralize Iranian nuclear sites, calling it the absolute right call and praises Trump for succeeding where past presidents, particularly Obama and Biden, failed by empowering Iran through misguided policies like those of Robert Malley. Donalds emphasizes Trump's clear stance against Iran possessing nuclear weapons while avoiding ground troop deployment, aligning with an America First policy. Learn more about your ad choices.

President Donald Trump addressed leaders at a NATO summit in the Netherlands Wednesday as the tenuous ceasefire between Israel and Iran continued to hold for a second day. Trump said the U.S. would be holding talks with Iran sometime next week, though he added he didn't think a new nuclear agreement was actually necessary because ‘the war's done.' While the administration continues to fight reports that Iran's nuclear program remains anything short of “totally obliterated,' there's still an ongoing debate within the broader MAGA world about the wisdom of the strikes in the first place. Sohrab Ahmari, U.S. editor for the British news and opinion outlet UnHerd, talks about what the strikes ultimately say about the MAGA foreign policy doctrine.And in headlines: Attorney General Pam Bondi denied knowledge that federal agents were wearing masks during immigration raids, Trump appeared to inch closer to Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky in its ongoing war with Russia, and former New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo's political future remains uncertain after a resounding loss to State Assemblyman Zohran Mamdani in Tuesday's Democratic mayoral primary.Show Notes:Check out Sohrab's piece – https://tinyurl.com/2kehejpzSubscribe to the What A Day Newsletter – https://tinyurl.com/3kk4nyz8What A Day – YouTube – https://www.youtube.com/@whatadaypodcastFollow us on Instagram – https://www.instagram.com/crookedmedia/For a transcript of this episode, please visit crooked.com/whataday

Dinesh argues for a middle position that preserves “peace through strength” while adopting the lessons of the Iraq debacle. Mark Mitchell of Rasmussen Reports joins Dinesh to talk about Trump’s popularity on foreign and domestic issues, and the case for re-opening the question of who really won the 2020 election.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

At a time when democracy is under siege from Kremlin-backed strongmen to MAGA disinformation machines, this week's Gaslit Nation bonus show offers much-needed hope. We unpack the NATO summit, celebrate a major grassroots victory in New York City, and also discuss how to contain Russia with security expert Candace Rondeaux, author of Putin's Sledgehammer. First up: NATO is finally stepping up. All member nations, except Spain, have committed 5% of their GDP to defense and security by 2035. Predictably, Trump is already trying to take credit, but this shift isn't about him. It's a direct response to Putin's ongoing war in Ukraine. European leaders have learned how to handle Trump's ego: offering flattery when necessary while quietly strengthening defenses against the very aggression he once downplayed. That's not concession; it's strategic diplomacy. Meanwhile, in New York City, there's real reason to celebrate: Zohran Mamdani's victory in the Democratic primary for mayor is a major win for grassroots organizing and progressive politics. His campaign, alongside Brad Lander and others, championed public investment, reallocated resources from the NYPD's military-sized budget, and pushed back against Fox News crime porn fearmongering and disinformation. It's a clear signal that authentic, coalition-driven campaigns have the power to break through. Is the Democratic Party establishment listening? And finally, don't miss our powerful conversation with Candace Rondeaux, who outlines how to contain Russian fascism and the ongoing threat of the Wagner Group. As we're always saying at Gaslit Nation: fascists don't stop until they're stopped. Want to enjoy Gaslit Nation ad-free?

Chris Cuomo argues that Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez is killing the Democratic Party by pushing to impeach Trump over his Iran bombing that actually led to a ceasefire. He contends that Democrats are making the same mistake as MAGA by embracing extremism, with AOC consistently taking the losing side of every "80-20" issue: from defunding police to being too comfortable with pro-Hamas sentiment, and now trying to impeach a president for protecting Americans from extreme Islamism. Cuomo warns that the real threat facing America isn't just from foreign terrorists but from homegrown extremists of all ideologies—from the healthcare CEO killer to embassy attackers—who've been radicalized to believe violence advances their political agenda. He argues Democrats need to reject AOC's performative politics and focus on the economic issues that matter to working people, like Trump's "Big Beautiful Bill," not chase impossible impeachments that make them look weak on national security.Plus, Dr. Kirk Elliott (Owner and Founder, Kirk Elliott Precious Metals) discusses how the GOP budget bill's debt implications could affect American households and investment strategies.

-- On the Show: -- Rutger Bregman, historian and bestselling author, joins David to discuss his new book "Moral Ambition: Stop Wasting Your Talent and Start Making a Difference" -- A new generation of left-wing leaders like Mamdani, AOC, and Bernie is challenging the Democratic establishment with a grassroots movement that seeks to rebuild the party from the ground up -- Trump's judicial nominee Emil Bove was exposed for illegally ordering DOJ lawyers to defy court rulings, raising alarms about the dismantling of the rule of law -- Trump stumbled through bizarre, confused NATO remarks—blasting Spain and fumbling questions—while visibly disoriented and mocked by reporters -- Trump spent the night in an unhinged meltdown on Truth Social, ranting about conspiracies, enemies, and imaginary Pentagon briefings in a terrifying spiral of instability -- Senator Ted Cruz and Fox News absurdly rebranded Trump's chaotic rants as “extraordinary leadership,” showcasing the authoritarian gaslighting now common in MAGA circles -- Trump exploded on a CNN reporter at a press conference, lashing out uncontrollably and attacking the media while dodging questions about intelligence reports -- Pete Hegseth demanded pro-Trump propaganda from the press, dismissing tough questions and declaring Trump's military mission the greatest in history with cult-like fervor -- On the Bonus Show: Trump's "big beautiful bill" in trouble, Republicans want Trump to revoke Mamdani's citizenship, White House gets creepy about Trump getting called "daddy" at NATO, and much more...

President Donald Trump and his top advisers have worked themselves up into a fury about the leaked intelligence assessment casting doubt on the success of Trump's bombing of Iran. Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth unleashed a wild, angry rant about it during a presser with Trump, viciously attacking intelligence officials for leaking the assessment. What Hegseth ended up revealing, however, is that we almost certainly cannot count on this administration to officially tell the truth about the Iran mission, because as Hegseth demonstrated, everything must always must serve the cult of Trump above all else. We talked to veteran national security lawyer Bradley Moss, who explains why this assessment is so important, what likely went into it, how the Hegseth-Trump-MAGA propaganda campaign is taking us to a very dangerous place as a country, and what to expect next.

黄猄蚁 并不是某一个严格意义上的单一物种，而是人们对体表呈现金属金黄色光泽的蚂蚁种类的通称，主要分布在热带地区的雨林中，尤以东南亚和中国南方的某些织叶蚁、弓背蚁属等最为典型。它们活跃在热带雨林中层或树冠层，部分种类能够与雨林中的角蝉、蚜虫等蜜露分泌类昆虫形成「放牧关系」。 下图是被黄猄蚁「缝」起来的巢穴。 Untitled https://media24.fireside.fm/file/fireside-uploads-2024/images/8/8dd8a56f-9636-415a-8c00-f9ca6778e511/CiNTIc7U.jpeg 榕小蜂 榕小蜂不是蜜蜂，而是一种微小的膜翅目昆虫，它们与榕属植物形成了极其精密的一对一共生关系，一种榕树往往对应一种或少数几种榕小蜂，没有榕小蜂，榕树就无法结果繁殖。 棕背树蜥 一种广泛分布于南亚和东南亚的树栖性爬行动物，也是云南地区热带雨林中最常见的日行性蜥蜴之一，因背部呈褐棕色得名。 Untitled https://media24.fireside.fm/file/fireside-uploads-2024/images/8/8dd8a56f-9636-415a-8c00-f9ca6778e511/nWRBhyzy.jpeg 给声东击西投稿 「声东击西」一直在寻找来自不同社会和群体的真实声音。我们曾经采访过为特朗普竞选生产 MAGA 帽子的中国制造商、记录过七位在美国大选中经历起伏的华人个体，也讲述了签证突然被取消的在美留学生的故事。 如果你也有一些特别的经历、观察或想法，不论是亲身体验的故事，还是你在某个行业、社区中的所见所闻，都欢迎你向我们投稿。 你的声音可能出现在未来的节目当中，我们非常期待你的分享！ 投稿入口 (https://eg76rdcl6g.feishu.cn/share/base/form/shrcne1CGVaSeJwtBriW6yNT2dg) 你也可以直接通过邮箱直接联系节目组：kexuan@shengfm.cn 幕后制作 监制：可宣 后期：赛德 运营：George 设计：饭团 商务合作 声动活泼商务合作咨询 (https://sourl.cn/6vdmQT) 关于声动活泼 「用声音碰撞世界」，声动活泼致力于为人们提供源源不断的思考养料。 我们还有这些播客：不止金钱（2024 全新发布） (https://www.xiaoyuzhoufm.com/podcast/65a625966d045a7f5e0b5640)、跳进兔子洞第三季（2024 全新发布） (https://www.xiaoyuzhoufm.com/podcast/666c0ad1c26e396a36c6ee2a)、声东击西 (https://etw.fm/episodes)、声动早咖啡 (https://sheng-espresso.fireside.fm/)、What's Next｜科技早知道 (https://guiguzaozhidao.fireside.fm/episodes)、反潮流俱乐部 (https://fanchaoliuclub.fireside.fm/)、泡腾 VC (https://popvc.fireside.fm/)、商业WHY酱 (https://msbussinesswhy.fireside.fm/) 欢迎在即刻 (https://okjk.co/Qd43ia)、微博等社交媒体上与我们互动，搜索 声动活泼 即可找到我们。 也欢迎你写邮件和我们联系，邮箱地址是：ting@sheng.fm 获取更多和声动活泼有关的讯息，你也可以扫码添加声小音，在节目之外和我们保持联系！ 声小音 https://files.fireside.fm/file/fireside-uploads/images/8/8dd8a56f-9636-415a-8c00-f9ca6778e511/hdvzQQ2r.png Special Guests: 赛德 and 赵怀东.

Can your keyboard produce enough hyphens to define Hal Sparks? He is a Comedian-Actor-Musician-Magician-Podcaster-Political Commentator-TV and Radio Personality-Host-Podcast Guest, and beyond. We are hoping his mother keeps a scrapbook.Hal has brought us such memorable characters as “Zoltan” in Dude, Where's My Car, “Elevator Passenger” in Spiderman 2, Michael in Queer as Folk and he proved too much of an improv master for Talk Soup to contain, which freed him up to host his own podcast empire, to tour with his band, Nerd Halen and with the Sexy Liberals Comedy Show and to guest with us on Media Path Podcast. Hal began sharing his wickedly sharp political observations on video platforms during the  pandemic's early days. He had just left China and lost dozens of friends to Covid. He fully understood the impending danger and devastation. So he hunkered and bunkered and began fact-checking Trump live on Youtube and Twitch. An outlet that released tension for himself and for his politically informed and engaged audience. He calls them “Sparklers!”Hal's show, Megaworldwide streams daily on his website infotainmentwars.com. Here, he reacts in real time to breaking news and the current political landscape. Hal's strong belief in the power of the electorate to enact real change inspires his work and he endeavors to be a part of the conversation shaping the narrative of the Democratic party.We ask Hal to tackle today's top headlines, the targeted attacks on Iran's nuclear missile sites ordered by Trump and the schism it's causing within the MAGA movement, as exemplified by prominent figures who find themselves at odds on the issue, like Ted Cruz and Tucker Carlson.We also discuss how traumatic childhoods and a lack of empathy underpin the mindset of the current administration. We follow the money that funds right wing influencers. We explore Elon Musk's technocratic family legacy. And we are front and center for the latest from Hal's comedy cover band, Nerd Halen. Then, we take a tour through Hal's scene-stealing film and TV moments with a round of IMDB Roulette which includes Chopper Chicks in Zombie Town, Dr. Quinn Medicine Woman and, of course, Dude, Where's My Car!In recommendations-- Fritz: History Channel series, Kevin Costner's The WestWeezy: HBO Max documentary, Surviving Ohio StatePath Points of Interest:Hal SparksInfotainmentWarsHal Sparks on InstagramHal Sparks on FacebookHal Sparks on BlueskyHal Sparks on YoutubeHal Sparks on WikiNerd HalenThe West - History ChannelSurviving Ohio State

As soon as Trump drops bombs on Iran, the "no-war" wing of MAGA falls into line--just like we knew they would. Ben riffs. Alderwoman Jeanette Taylor returns! Talking about the Trump shit show--shoulda voted for Kamala, people. And America's fear and hatred of Black women. And why we never run out of money to bomb people, but call money spent on schools a waste. And how Mayor Johnson is doing a better job. And her opposition to snap curfews. Also--a shoutout to Jay Travis and a nice word about Alderman Hopkins.

The White House celebrated another win for the Trump administration as "Daddy" came home from the NATO summit. Our allies have pledged to spend 5% on defense after President Trump is the only president in modern history to pressure NATO allies to keep their promise in the agreement. Did MAGA learn a lesson after Iran? President Trump quickly escalated and de-escalated the situation in Iran while prominent MAGA influencers sounded the alarm on WWIII. President Trump showed us there is another way and did not drag us into another forever war in the Middle East. Pete Hegseth obliterated the careless and irresponsible journalist who questioned the effectiveness of the strikes in Iran. The media has failed to recognize or highlighted the brave men and women who were apart of this mission and serve to protect us and Hegseth made sure they got the credit they deserve. General Caine walked us through the rigorous planning and execution of the mission and shed light on the people involved and their families. New York has chosen a Communist Socialist Zohran Mamdani to lead them to a brighter future and the only one standing in his way is Eric Adams. It was another week of wins for President Trump, but there were definitely some losers, our panel fills us in on all that went down.

Megyn Kelly is joined by Speaker Mike Johnson to discuss the status of the passage of the Big Beautiful Bill and how it will help the American people, how the media and the left have distorted what the bill will actually do, the “threat to the state” leakers who are lying about Trump's successful Iran mission, how we know the truth about how damaging the Iran strikes were, why going to Congress would have allowed Iran to keep building toward a nuclear bomb, and more. Then Charlie Kirk, founder of "Turning Point USA," joins to discuss how the media is spreading false leaks to discredit President Trump's successful Iran mission, their relentless efforts to undermine him, Trump ripping into CNN calling them “gutless losers," Trump's successful push to get European leaders to finally step up and pay more for NATO, his goal to strengthen the Western world, how his “Big Beautiful Bill” will deliver record funding for the southern border,how President Trump's winning mindset is reshaping the world, the way he's strengthening NATO and getting to new agreements in the Middle East, his plan to focus the Americas next including Greenland and the Panama Canal, the MAGA "civil war" over Trump's actions in Iran, what Kirk told Trump before the strikes about what young people want, the healthy divide on the right over foreign policy, what it means that radical socialist Zohran Mamdani won the NYC Democratic mayoral primary, whether his Muslim religion plays a role in his potential policy changes, his radical ideas for America's biggest city, and more. Johnson- https://x.com/speakerjohnsonKirk- https://thecharliekirkshow.com/podcasts/the-charlie-kirk-show Riverbend Ranch: Visit https://riverbendranch.com/ | Use promo code MEGYN for $20 off your first order.Byrna: Go to https://Byrna.com or your local Sportsman's Warehouse today.Firecracker Farm: Visit https://firecracker.FARM & enter code MK at checkout for a special discount!120Life: Go to https://120Life.com and use code MK to save 15% Follow The Megyn Kelly Show on all social platforms:YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/MegynKellyTwitter: http://Twitter.com/MegynKellyShowInstagram: http://Instagram.com/MegynKellyShowFacebook: http://Facebook.com/MegynKellyShow Find out more information at: https://www.devilmaycaremedia.com/megynkellyshow

With the world on the brink of another war, there's no one more essential to hear from than Anne Applebaum, Pulitzer Prize-winning historian and author of Gulag, Iron Curtain, Red Famine (which cites Andrea's grandfather, a Holodomor survivor), Twilight of Democracy, and Autocracy Inc. In this urgent conversation, we go to the frontlines of authoritarianism, from MAGA's playbook at home to Putin's alliances abroad, from Orban's Hungary to the rising threat of war with Iran. We begin in Poland. In 2023, a broad democratic coalition ousted the far-right, anti-LGBTQ+ Law and Justice party, which had spent years eroding democratic institutions. But in a razor-thin presidential race this year, that same authoritarian force clawed its way back. The takeaway? Democracy isn't a destination. It's a constant, high-stakes battle. “Everybody always wants to write the story of populism and say that it's over, or it's here for good, or we're finished, or we've won. And that's not what the story is going to look like,” says Applebaum. “This is the ongoing struggle that all of us will be in, probably for the next few decades, maybe into the foreseeable future. The argument about the nature of the state is now here with us. And neither one side nor the other has achieved a definitive victory, I would say, either in Europe or in the United States.” Then, Iran. Trump launched airstrikes without congressional approval or public debate, risking another U.S. war. Many in the Iranian opposition welcome blows to the brutal regime, but without strategy or legality, this is more of Trump's lawless chaos. Meanwhile, Putin watches. His alliance with Iran is not ideological, but tactical, with one shared mission: destabilize democracies and sow chaos worldwide. Applebaum discusses how Hungary became the MAGA model, what Poland's resistance can teach the U.S., and why the fight for democracy is far from over. This isn't a time for hope alone. It's a time to act. Because autocracy isn't resting. And neither can we. Want to enjoy Gaslit Nation ad-free?

REALIGNMENT NEWSLETTER: https://therealignment.substack.com/PURCHASE BOOKS AT OUR BOOKSHOP: https://bookshop.org/shop/therealignmentEmail Us: realignmentpod@gmail.comBack from paternity leave, Saagar Enjeti returns to The Realignment. Marshall and Saagar discuss the aftermath of U.S.-Israeli airstrikes on Iran's nuclear program, how the operation compares to previous interventions, why the non-interventionist MAGA faction lost to interventionists, why alternative media's policy influence relative to its popularity was overstated, and the future of nuclear non-proliferation.

-- On the Show: -- Intelligence reports reveal Trump's airstrikes on Iran's nuclear facilities caused only superficial damage, leaving key infrastructure intact -- Trump appeared confused and unsteady at the NATO summit, insisting Iran's nuclear sites were “totally obliterated” despite intelligence showing otherwise -- Trump's deportation policies fuel a lucrative “immigration-industrial complex” where private contractors profit from mass detentions and deportations -- Trump launched an erratic social media tirade against Alexandria Ocasio Cortez, who responded by condemning his illegal bombing of Iran and broken promises -- On Air Force One, Trump contradicted himself, saying he does not want regime change in Iran while downplaying their nuclear ambitions -- Joe Rogan publicly acknowledged that Trump broke his antiwar promises by bombing Iran, highlighting a split in the MAGA base -- Robert F. Kennedy Jr. proposed widespread use of invasive wearable devices akin to “microchipping,” raising privacy and surveillance concern -- RFK Jr. admitted he did no fact-checking before publishing a conspiracy-filled report, yet still claimed its assertions were accurate -- On the Bonus Show: Zohran Mamdani wins New York City Democratic primary, Trump's Nobel Peace Prize nomination withdrawn, and much more...

Donald Trump, without consulting Congress or United States allies, orders the military to bomb Iran, and then claims that Iran and Israel have reached a ceasefire. Military and intelligence services push back on Trump's claims that Iran's three nuclear sites have been "completely and totally obliterated." MAGA isolationists change their tone to avoid Trump's ire. Jon, Lovett, Tommy, and Dan react to all the latest, including reports that nuclear material may have been removed before the attacks, Iran's retaliatory strikes on an American military installation in Qatar, and Trump's new posts indicating he may be open to regime change. Then, the guys walk through Democrats' response to the attacks, the latest from Trump's ongoing National Guard deployment in Los Angeles, and a New York City mayoral primary that's both frustrating and exciting.

Megyn Kelly is joined by Kmele Foster, Michael Moynihan, and Matt Welch, hosts of "The Fifth Column," to discuss Trump's actions in the Middle East, the state of the ceasefire deal between Israel and Iran, whether America should stay involved in the conflict, Trump dropping an f-bomb over his frustration with how Iran and Israel are acting, where Trump's foreign policy falls in the political spectrum, Emily Jashinsky's news-making conversation with Tucker Carlson on the premiere episode of "After Party," how he unloaded on Ted Cruz and Mark Levin as the MAGA and GOP civil war continues, the fracturing of the MAGA movement over the past week, whether recent events will raise President Trump's approval rating, the bizarre moment we're in where Jeb Bush and Trump are praising each other, remembering the wild moments of Trump vs. Jeb from 2016, socialist millennial candidate Zohran Mamdani potentially becoming the next NYC mayor, his weird rap career and shifting accents, his terrible policies that could further destroy New York City, and more. Fifth Column- https://wethefifth.substack.com/ Tax Network USA: Call 1-800-958-1000 or visit https://TNUSA.com/MEGYN to speak with a strategist for FREE todayHungryroot: https://Hungryroot.com/MK | Get 40% off your first box PLUS a free item in every box for life!Kars4Kids: Call 1-877-kars4kids or visit https://kars4kids.org/MKLean: Visit https://TakeLean.com & use code MK20 for 20% off Follow The Megyn Kelly Show on all social platforms:YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/MegynKellyTwitter: http://Twitter.com/MegynKellyShowInstagram: http://Instagram.com/MegynKellyShowFacebook: http://Facebook.com/MegynKellyShow Find out more information at: https://www.devilmaycaremedia.com/megynkellyshow
