Two Minneapolis activists were killed within weeks while participating in “ICE Watch” operations linked to a group that trains civilians to track and disrupt law enforcement. Reporting shows organizers encouraged confrontations, surveillance of agents, and disruptive tactics, while using encrypted Signal chats to coordinate – even after following these instructions led to the deaths of multiple members. The encrypted Signal chats reviewed by Fox News Digital show anti ICE protesters were tracking federal agents and mobilized outside a Minneapolis donut shop before Alex Pretti was shot. “Organizers continue to push volunteers into unpredictable scenes, ensuring continued confrontations between residents and federal agents,” writes Christina Buttons, “while the professional architects of the chaos remain shielded from the consequences.” Carl DeMaio is a California State Assemblyman representing the 75th District and chairman of Reform California. He previously served on the San Diego City Council and had a career in business and radio. DeMaio is a longtime taxpayer advocate and proponent of voter ID laws.

American society has become radically permissive of some serious vices in the past few years. Drugs, gambling, and pornography are easier to access legally than ever before. A backlash against this permissiveness has clearly begun, but it has yet to find its footing because it tends to be rooted in the language of material or physical harm. Such arguments are a crucial piece of the case for prohibiting vice, but they have to be paired with a more comprehensive and coherent account of why vice is incompatible with human freedom and flourishing.Guest Charles Lehman joins us to discuss how opponents of vice can build a bipartisan coalition for banning the addictive products that threaten republican self-government. Charles Fain Lehman is a fellow at the Manhattan Institute and senior editor of City Journal.This podcast discusses themes from Charles's essay in the Winter 2026 issue of National Affairs, “The Case for Prohibiting Vice”
It's Minnesota day, again. Before Minneapolis lit politics on fire with immigration-enforcement-related shootings and associated protests and riots, the story from the land of 10,000 lakes was public-benefits fraud, allegations of which surged to public attention alongside memes about the “Quality Learing Center.” But it's not just a right-wing internet meme or video investigation—Minnesota has a serious, proven problem with millions if not billions of dollars in public money stolen by scammers, most notably the “Feeding Our Future” nonprofit that ripped off the taxpayer instead of feeding children during COVID-19. This raises a question we have raised in our Minnesota discussions before: Should the government, or should nonprofit groups, carry out the role of Big Government? Stephen Eide of the Manhattan Institute joins us to discuss.A Hidden Lesson of the Minnesota Welfare ScandalMamdani's NGO Model ArmyThe Union and the Republican Prize Patrol
On this episode Razib talks to Jesse Arm, VP of external affairs at the Manhattan Institute. His writing and commentary have appeared in the New York Times, Wall Street Journal, The Atlantic, New York Post, Fox News, City Journal and Jerusalem Post. Arm graduated with honors from the University of Michigan, where he majored in international political economy, and studied language and international affairs at Tel Aviv University. He has also worked for Senator Tom Cotton and Representative Dan Benishek, and the analytics arm of American Continental Group, a major lobbying firm. Razib and Arm discuss the perceptions and attitudes of Gen Z Republicans, focusing on a group of 18-29-year-olds in Nashville, TN. Arm notes that while Gen Z feels economic anxiety, they are also entrepreneurial and comfortable with the world of social media. Gen Z Republicans are religious, like previous generations, but less likely to be married or have long-term partners at the same age as earlier cohorts. They express a desire for politics to be entertaining, similar to reality TV. The conversation also touches on the influence of social media on their views, the power of influencers like Nick Fuentes, and the potential for future political figures to emerge from the creator class. Arm also addresses the impact of intergenerational wealth transfer on political attitudes.

In November 2025, Rod Dreher published an essay in the Free Press, based on an earlier Substack post he'd written, about anti-Semitism on the American right. Dreher had just returned from Washington, where he'd spent several days speaking with young conservatives working in think tanks and in government. What he discovered was that a significant portion of young men on the right, perhaps as many as 30 or 40 percent, expressed sympathy for Nick Fuentes, the white-supremacist podcaster who denies the Holocaust and openly attacks Jewish institutions and Jewish people. The trigger for Dreher's reporting was an interview of Fuentes in late October by another media personality, Tucker Carlson. Having watched that interview, Dreher witnessed what he called a Rubicon-crossing moment: the most influential conservative media figure in America giving a remarkably soft platform to someone who has praised Hitler and has made all manner of psychotic claims about the Jewish people. Dreher had considered Carlson a friend. That friendship ended when he called him out over the Fuentes interview. Dreher's voice is particularly important because he speaks from deep within the world of American Christian conservatism. He is the author of The Benedict Option, a defining text for thinking about Christian cultural withdrawal, published in 2017. He has also written extensively about his own conversion to Orthodoxy, and has spent much of his career reporting on the institutional health of American Christianity. So when he sounds an alarm, as he does in this conversation with Mosaic's editor Jonathan Silver, about anti-Semitism spreading among young Christian conservatives, Jews should listen. This conversation was recorded in December, with Dreher in Budapest, where he now lives.

Xi Van Fleet escaped from Mao's Revolution in China – and now she's warning of elites enabling the CCP while funding chaos, crime, and communism in the United States. Drawing on historical research, Xi (pronounced “She”) traces CCP support from Soviet backing to US economic and political engagement that helped transform China into the world's second largest economy. Heather Mac Donald, author of The War On Cops, reveals how support from wealthy Americans is increasing China's global power – and making its government an even greater threat to American independence. Xi Van Fleet is a survivor of Mao's Cultural Revolution and author of “Made In America: The Hidden History of How the U.S. Enabled Communist China and Created Our Greatest Threat.” Born in China, she was sent to work in the countryside at age 16 during the Cultural Revolution. After Mao's death, she studied English in college and moved to the United States in 1986. She regularly appears on national media warning about parallels between communist China and modern America.

Amid protests over immigration enforcement by leftists in Minneapolis, a group of Black Lives Matter demonstrators allegedly invaded a service at a church whose pastor they claimed was an Immigration and Customs Enforcement official. (Ex-CNN talking head Don Lemon was also there, claiming to be an independent journalist.) The U.S. Department of Justice has issued statements that they are investigating the incident, with the possibility of pressing charges under the FACE Act, a piece of legislation enacted in 1994 to deter protests at abortion clinics that contains a provision extending its provisions to religious worship sites, or the Ku Klux Klan Act, Reconstruction-era legislation that made interfering with Americans' civil rights a federal crime. Already, the federal government has announced that multiple activists involved in the demonstration have been arrested. Is that reasonable? We are joined by Manhattan Institute legal policy fellow Tal Fortgang to discuss.How the White House Can Crack Down on Radical Groups—LegallyAnti-ICE protesters storm church in Minnesota during serviceMinnesota agitators arrested in wake of church invasion, Bondi saysDispute over Arresting Don Lemon?Don Lemon Just Happens to Make It to Church on TimeThe Rise of Civil TerrorismBlocking the Road Is Civil Terrorism

To help make sense of all these moves, we're returning to guests from our "On Democracy" series, starting with Ilya Shapiro of the conservative Manhattan Institute.

MLK was a Baptist minister, deeply rooted in the African-American Christian tradition, who became a pivotal leader in the Civil Rights Movement, drawing his powerful oratory and philosophy of nonviolent resistance from his faith and biblical teachings. He co-pastored Ebenezer Baptist Church in Atlanta with his father and was a Protestant Christian, a denomination that grew from the Reformation started by the original Martin Luther, whom King Jr. was named after. January 19th is recognized in America as Martin Luther King Jr. Day.

One of the first executive orders President Donald Trump signed after his inauguration last January was titled “Protecting Children from Chemical and Surgical Mutilation.” The order directed the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) to produce a systematic review of pediatric transgender procedures and their impact on children within 90 days.In May 2025, HHS published a more than 400-page review, titled “Treatment for Pediatric Gender Dysphoria: Review of Evidence and Best Practices.” In November last year, an updated, peer-reviewed version was published with additional appendices and supplements.Leor Sapir, a senior fellow at the Manhattan Institute, is one of the report's main outside co-authors. In our in-depth interview, Sapir provides a detailed overview of the review's findings and conclusions.“We tried to be as factual and defensible as we possibly could,” he said.The goal of the report, he says, is to “engage with people in the medical profession who may not be aligned with the administration, but who do care about questions of medical evidence and medical ethics.”In this episode, he breaks down:- The prevalence of sex-changing procedures in the United States, as well as the reversal in approaches in various Scandinavian countries and in the UK.- How misleading and unscientific language was used by professionals across many fields to promote pediatric sex transitioning.- The role of the organization, World Professional Association for Transgender Health (WPATH), in establishing “gender-affirming care” as the accepted standard.- How clinicians, in his view, distorted the principle of patient autonomy to increase pediatric sex change surgeries.There is one chapter in the report that everyone should read, Sapir said. And that is the chapter about ethics.“The question on everybody's mind is: Should we do it? That's an ethical question. And medical ethics is, you would hope, [what] governs the field of medicine,” he told me.Views expressed in this video are opinions of the host and the guest, and do not necessarily reflect the views of The Epoch Times.

On today's special, we turn our full attention to Venezuela, exploring the need for intervention with four guests who offer varied firsthand experiences and perspectives on the country and President Trump's role. Our first guest is Santiago Vidal Calvo, a cities policy analyst focused on government accountability and transparency through the Manhattan Institute's Freedom of Information Law initiatives. Born in Caracas, Venezuela, Vidal Calvo immigrated to the United States in 2021. He explains why President Trump's actions were lawful under Article II of the U.S. Constitution and justified by national security concerns, noting that more than a century of precedent supports the president's authority to act in this manner. He also challenges claims of international law violations, questioning who defines and enforces international law—and where those protections were during the 27 years Venezuelans were killed, tortured, and kidnapped. Next we speak with Carrie Filipetti who currently serves as Executive Director of the Vandenberg Coalition. Previously, she held senior roles at the U.S. Department of State, including Deputy Assistant Secretary for Cuba and Venezuela in the Bureau of Western Hemisphere Affairs and Deputy Special Representative for Venezuela—earning a Superior Honor Award for her service. Venezuela's collapse is a stark riches-to-rags story: once the wealthiest nation in Latin America, its decline began with the rise of socialism. In just the past few years, roughly 25 percent of the population has been forced to flee. Families have been torn apart, torture and human rights abuses are widespread, and nearly every Venezuelan has been affected—fueling strong domestic support for what is unfolding now. Carrie also examines what this moment means for Cuba, and how these developments will shape the broader Western Hemisphere, including implications for Cuba and Nicaragua. Our third guest is Doral Councilman Rafael Piñeyro, who was born in Caracas, Venezuela, and moved to Miami with his family at the age of 15, carrying hopes and dreams for his future. Today, roughly 40 percent of the Doral community is Venezuelan. This issue goes beyond political parties or ideology—it is about principle, accountability, and justice. What happens in Venezuela matters not only to its people, but to the entire region and the United States. After 26 years of suffering under these regimes, the impact has been felt both in Venezuela and here at home. Councilman Piñeyro believes the United States is now sending a clear and unmistakable message: these regimes will be held accountable, and it is time for a better future for Latin America—while signaling to the world that America is back. Alexa Lavoi, Chief Journalist for Rebel News in Quebec and Ottawa, recounts her on-the-ground reporting from Doral, Florida, where she interviewed Venezuelans who fled their homeland after facing persecution for opposing views or noncompliance with the regime. Through emotional, firsthand stories, Alexa witnessed both the pain and resilience within the community. While hope remains strong, there is also profound worry for the future of Venezuela and for family members still trapped under the regime.
PhD candidate in Economics at Columbia University and a graduate fellow at the Manhattan Institute, Daniel Di Martino, explains the ongoing political situation in Venezuela and why the Trump administration felt they had to step in. As a Venezuelan native, Daniel discusses the changing power dynamics in the country and what is happening now that Maduro is no longer their leader. He also describes the potential for Venezuelan politician and activist Maria Corina Machado to become the next president. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices
In the first episode of our new "Who We Are" series, Rafael Mangual and Heather Mac Donald discuss the work of the Manhattan Institute and City Journal on crime and public safety over the years. They cover Broken Windows policing, disparate impact, the reality of interracial crime, why public order matters, and what Mayor Zohran Mamdani's policies will mean for daily life in New York City.
In this episode, Lisa Boothe is joined by Daniel Di Martino of the Manhattan Institute to break down the stunning arrest Nicolás Maduro and what it means for Venezuela, the United States, and the global balance of power. Daniel explains why Maduro’s arrest is being celebrated by many Venezuelans as a long-awaited moment of accountability and explores whether this development could finally open the door to a peaceful political transition. The conversation examines America’s strategic interests in Venezuela, including energy security, oil production, and the potential economic opportunities for U.S. companies if the country stabilizes. Lisa and Daniel also analyze the broader geopolitical implications, including how Maduro’s downfall could weaken the influence of Russia, Iran, and China in the Western Hemisphere. Finally, they discuss the political backlash from the American left and what this moment reveals about U.S. foreign policy, regime change debates, and America’s role on the global stage.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
