Hey Everybody! Meet Jay- a pan, poly furry who, along with 15 other queer furries, met up for a "kink tasting, orgy event." What goes on at kink cabin? We won't say here, but please know that an inflatable horse costume was involved. Also, Dan brings a much needed Marxist interrogation to the story. If you have a tale to share, write it up and send it in to Q@Savage.Love

This week on the SWAJ Weekly Roundup, Brad and Dan dig into Lance Wallnau's baseless claim that Texas gubernatorial candidate James Talarico is secretly linked to Al-Qaeda, unpacking how this fits a broader Christian nationalist strategy of tying Democrats to Islamist and Marxist "infiltrators" — even as polling shows Talarico outperforming Trump's 2024 numbers in his district. They also break down Enes Kanter Freedom's confrontational stunt at a WNBA game, arguing that anti-trans activism functions as a form of misogyny aimed at enforcing patriarchal norms on women's spaces. The episode closes with a look at a Florida grand jury finding that the DeSantis administration misappropriated $10 million meant for children's Medicaid to fight a marijuana legalization ballot measure — a story Brad and Dan frame as part of a broader erosion of political accountability.

Marxist historian, journalist, and political commentator weighs in on the recent controversy surrounding a letter, published in The Guardian and signed by a number of respected leftists including Angela Davis & Mumia Abu-Jamal. The letter drew criticism for drawing false equivalence between US empire and Iran as Iran resists the US war of aggression. Now, several signatories have disclaimed the letter, saying they misled about it's final contents before they signed, but others, including Davis, have not. To what extent is this letter evidence of an effort to create a permission structure to break solidarity with Iran? Does existence of a campaign to do so reflect the vulnerability of US empire amid growing bipartisan distaste for the Iran war? Prashad talks us through his response piece, Against the False Symmetry of the Scissors: An Open Letter While Iran Resists an Illegal War of Aggression, & weighs in on the US left's insufficient commitment to anti-imperialism.

Get Professor Derber's book here: https://www.routledge.com/Wir.../Derber/p/book/9781041267553   Wired for Authoritarianism combines historical analysis with an innovative conceptual analysis of the “wiring” of power, drawing on the study of the power elite developed by the sociologist C. Wright Mills and neo‑Marxist literature. Connecting the social and political culture of the elite to the ideas of state and societal capture, as well as novel concepts of covert and overt wiring of power, this book argues that the Trump era has moved America from a long‑standing, mainly covert authoritarian structure toward a more dominant and overt authoritarianism—from a position in which oligarchs exercise power from outside of official government positions to one in which corporate oligarchs are directly in top government positions.   Check out our new bi-weekly series, "The Crisis Papers" here: https://www.patreon.com/bitterlakepresents/shop   READ THE WEEKLY TIR NEWSLETTER HERE: https://www.patreon.com/collection/1853497   Thank you guys again for taking the time to check this out.

James Smithson left his fortune to America so that she could “increase and diffuse knowledge.” Smithsonian leadership now uses tax dollars to diffuse a Marxist distortion of American history instead.

Fernando Wirtz and Takeshi Morisato join Craig for a primer on Japan's most influential and most contested philosophical tradition, from Nishida and Tanabe through Miki Kiyoshi and Tosaka Jun. The conversation covers what "nothingness" actually means in Japanese thought and why it isn't Heidegger's, how Miki tried to collapse reason and unreason into a logic of imagination, and what tenkō, or forced ideological conversion, did to a generation of Marxist intellectuals. It closes on the newly surfaced Ōshima Memo and the question of what it costs to think under fascism.Books mentioned in this episodeMiki Kiyoshi, The Logic of Imagination, translated by John W. M.

Matthew traces the concept of wetiko — a Cree figure for a cannibal spirit whose hunger grows with what it consumes — from its original anticolonial and anti-imperialist meaning in Jack Forbes's 1992 book Columbus and Other Cannibals, through Derrick Jensen's anti-civilization lense, Ladha and Kirk's 2016 application to neoliberal capitalism, Paul Levy's syncretic New Age elaboration, and finally to Bernhard Guenther and Laura Matsue's QAnon-adjacent version.  Wetiko's metaphysical framing, inherited from Forbes's explicit rejection of Marxist materialism, left the concept open to spiritual recuperation by the right. He proposes a different application: reading wetiko through David Harvey's "capital surplus absorption problem," compound growth's insatiable hunger for profitable outlets.

New Discourses Bullets, Ep. 178 Critical Theory originates in the formal sense from a 1937 essay penned by Frankfurt School director Max Horkheimer, bearing the title "Traditional and Critical Theory." In that essay, Horkheimer compares what he calls "traditional theory" against his neo-Marxist conception that he names "critical theory," thus organizing the approach behind the entire school of thought that is sometimes called Critical Marxism. In this episode of New Discourses Bullets, host James Lindsay breaks down the point of this essay and the nature of Horkheimer's comparison between these two ways of thinking.

Eric Hobsbawm (1917–2012) was one of the foremost European intellectuals of the twentieth century. He published hundreds of articles on modern history and culture, and his books became canonical works and bestsellers on both sides of the Atlantic. His crystal-clear writing, vast erudition, and ability to make his Marxist analysis digestible to a wide audience brought him worldwide renown. Yet Hobsbawm was no academic hermit. Through his globetrotting journalism, he was embedded in an extraordinary web of politicians, activists, and fellow intellectuals across Europe, South Asia, and the Americas, including Manmohan Singh, Che Guevara, Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva, Fernand Braudel, E. P. Thompson, Arno Mayer, and Salvador Allende.  In The Age of Hobsbawm: The Life of a Revolutionary Historian (Harvard University Press, 2026), Emile Chabal traces the origins of Hobsbawm's ideas and most famous writings by exploring his scholarly foundations, delving deep into the archives to uncover hidden links and unexpected conversations that shaped his pathbreaking work. Going well beyond the Ages series of modern history books for which Hobsbawm is best known, Chabal offers the first substantial interpretation of Hobsbawm's entire body of writing. Indeed, The Age of Hobsbawm is also a trove of unique insights into the generations of Marxist writers with whom Hobsbawm was in conversation—authors whose work continues to shape political debates globally.

In ruling circles and in the media, it's all fine and dandy to talk about Rome and British, French and Soviet empires, but it's impolite to talk about the United States as an empire. If you do, you'll be ridiculed and labeled a loony Marxist. But it's there with its hubris and arrogance and colossal military bases straddling the globe, and its wars and interventions. Simply stated, imperialism erodes democracy. The signs of U.S. decline are everywhere to be seen and felt. Why? Because the Pentagon's military-industrial complex and its vast sums of money have greatly weakened the proverbial guardrails that protect democracy.

The episode starts with a discussion on the horrific murder in Fairfax County, Virginia, where an illegal immigrant committed a brutal crime, highlighting the consequences of sanctuary policies. Larry argues that these policies are a result of the Democratic Party's refusal to enforce immigration laws and their prioritization of politics over people's safety. The conversation takes a turn as the host discusses the connection between socialism and communism, citing the rise of socialist politicians in the US and their admiration for Marxist leaders like Fidel Castro. Larry also touches on the topic of election integrity, highlighting the issue of non-citizens being added to voter rolls in New Jersey and the need for voter ID laws. The episode also features a discussion on the upcoming election in South Carolina, where Congressman Ralph Norman is running against Senator Lindsey Graham's sister, Darlene Graham. Larry also speaks with KT McFarland, a national security expert, about the thorniest problem President Trump faces: China. They discuss the recent decision to scale back joint operations with South Korea and its implications for the region. The conversation also touches on the situation in Cuba, where the host believes the US has an opportunity to make a positive impact.Become a Townhall VIP member with promo code "LARRY": https://townhall.com/subscribeSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Education doesn’t make some of the difference in a society; it makes all the difference. Seth touches on the importance of studying history, particularly the philosophies and histories of Communist regimes, to understand the dangers of socialism and Marxism. The speaker argues that the lack of knowledge about these topics has led to a generation of young adults who are easily swayed by propaganda and revisionist history. This has resulted in a disturbing trend of embracing socialist and Marxist ideologies, which are often at odds with American values. Producer David Doll discusses his recent reading of William F. Buckley’s God and Man at Yale. We’re joined by Don Spini from Sun Valley Wealth. Seth reads from Emil Barr’s recent piece “The Young MAGA Socialists Are Here” from The Wall Street Journal.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

In this episode of the Explaining History Podcast, we step back from the specific history of Congo to examine the broader theoretical framework of neocolonialism – and how the decline of formal empire prepared the ground for the neoliberal revolution.Drawing on thinkers from Marx and Lenin to J.A. Hobson and Rosa Luxemburg, we explore the purpose of empire from the perspective of capital: the pursuit of cheap resources, cheap labour, and captive markets. Britain's transformation from a middling European kingdom to a global superpower was built on the extraction of wealth from its colonies – from the opium trade with China to the slave‑based sugar and cotton economies to the systematic deindustrialisation of India.But what happens when empire becomes unsustainable? In India, the British lost control of the Indian Army in 1946, and with it, their ability to monopolise armed force. By the 1950s and 60s, most of Britain's African colonies were gone. Yet the flow of wealth from the Global South to the City of London did not stop. It continued through neocolonialism – debt, the Bretton Woods institutions, corporate infiltration, and support for pliant regimes.And then came neoliberalism. As the returns from empire declined, capitalist elites in the Global North turned inward, cannibalising their own societies through privatisation, the erosion of welfare states, and the breaking of organised labour. The neoliberal revolution was, in part, a response to the crisis of empire – a way to maintain elite wealth and power when the old imperial structures could no longer deliver.We also consider the explicitly colonial and eugenic thinking of some neoliberal architects, and the destructive consequences of imposing market logic on societies with no history of it. From the mass unemployment of Thatcher's Britain to the ongoing exploitation of Africa, the arc of capital bends towards extraction – and the people always pay the price.Topics covered:Marxist and liberal theories of imperialism (Hobson, Lenin, Luxemburg)Britain's transition from formal empire to neocolonialismThe loss of control over the Indian Army in 1946The Bretton Woods institutions and the weaponisation of debtNeoliberalism as a response to the decline of empireThe cannibalisation of Western welfare statesThe role of organised labour and the defeat of the minersThe eugenic and colonial thinking of neoliberal theoristsIf you enjoy the podcast, please consider supporting us – we are migrating from Patreon to Substack.

The news of Texas covered today includes:Our Lone Star story of the day: The ACLU and other anti-religion groups have asked the Supreme Court to overturn the Fifth Circuit Court of Appeals and declare that Texas cannot post the Ten Commandments in school classrooms. Maybe we should accept their argument that exposure is equal to advocacy, indoctrination, and establishment. That way we could apply the same to all of their Marxist, secular, Leftist crap and force it all out of schools! Frankly, this whole of issue of separation of church and state is moronically misunderstood. There is no such separation in the Constitution, only the prohibition of government creating an Established Church – which had a very specific meaning when written not a generic anti-religious meaning.Our Lone Star story of the day is sponsored by Allied Compliance Services providing the best service in DOT, business and personal drug and alcohol testing since 1995.Rep. Patterson brings up, again, the idea of starting school in September. We've had this argument for decades as start dates moved earlier. What is missed by reporters and others who are ignorant what has gone before, is that it mostly has to do with football. Going lefty with near “participation trophies” for playoffs added weeks to the schedule.Texas CEO pay: Companies with the widest worker pay gaps. Why is this anyone's business? “Workers” (effectively a Marxist term) are free to buy stock and be owners in publicly traded companies but management pay is only their business as an owner, not an employee. And, note the silly union comment about workers being the ones “who make their companies profitable.” Firstly, it's not “their” company if they are employees. Secondly, if this is true then when companies fail it is the employees who “make their companies” unprofitable.Listen on the radio, or station stream, at 5pm Central.

This one is Claude Sonnet 5 - did a decent job. Got Gemini to do it at the same time and it was SHIT. --------------------------Jack the Insider and Hong Kong Jack open with an air-conditioner instalation story that would give any WHS officer a heart attack, before diving into the immigration debate consuming the Western world, Albo's cringeworthy podcast melon gag and the diplomatic fallout with Japan, Angus Taylor's Twitter misfire, a grim Newspoll for Labor, the conviction of former Bishop Christopher Saunders, the unravelling Mahmoud Fazal/Four Corners scandal, an AI Royal Commission, Israel's rejection of the Gaza peace plan, Ukraine's drone edge, a spot of Marxism 101, and a bumper sports wrap covering the Ashes build-up, Geelong's concussion waiver scandal and the NRL's new PNG and Perth franchises.00:00:26 — Cold open: Hong Kong air-con drama. Hong Kong Jack recounts tradesmen scaling the building exterior, tying off to a sewer pipe and rigging a platform in under an hour — a workplace safety non-starter back home.00:01:20 — Immigration policy in limbo. Home Affairs Minister Tony Burke pulls his National Press Club address after Cabinet gets cold feet on migration numbers; One Nation capitalises on the vacuum.00:02:17 — Paul Kelly on the West's immigration reckoning. The hosts unpack Kelly's column on multiculturalism's failures in Europe versus its comparative success in Australia, New Zealand, Canada and the US, and why a clear pathway to national identity matters.00:04:23 — The politician/public disconnect. A Financial Times study (John Burn-Murdoch) showing big gaps between public and political opinion on migrant assimilation across Britain, Germany, the Netherlands and Sweden.00:06:10 — Is the far right the cause or the symptom? A robust back-and-forth on whether One Nation, AfD, Reform UK and Le Pen's party are driving the backlash or simply capitalising on governments that lost control of migration systems.00:08:50 — Albo's podcast melon gag fallout. The PM's crass "melons" line about the Japanese Prime Minister on a comedy podcast draws a diplomatic complaint from Tokyo and calls for an apology he still hasn't given.00:10:39 — Why politicians chase the "youth" podcast circuit. Discussion of Albo's ties to Sandilands-style FM radio and whether the audience numbers justify the reputational risk.00:12:32 — Latika Bourke's double standard question. Would a corporate CEO survive the same scrutiny as a Prime Minister? The Jacks disagree on how novel the standard really is.00:14:14 — Angus Taylor's Twitter misfire. A dissected, over-written tweet accusing the "socialist" Albanese government lands badly — "people might think they're bumbling fools, but they don't think they're socialist."00:15:53 — Angus Taylor and the ICAC donation question. A circular exchange over an unresolved email regarding a potential donation tied to a group under ICAC scrutiny.00:17:52 — Coalition social media strategy. Jane Hume's five-a-day Instagram habit and whether the Coalition's messaging is landing with anyone at this point in the electoral cycle.00:18:52 — Productivity and work-from-home. Westpac CEO Anthony Miller warns rates could stay elevated into 2028 without a productivity fix; Victoria shelves its work-from-home legislation ahead of the planned 1 September start.00:21:36 — Red tape and the housing/business regulation debate. Building approval bottlenecks, the Coalition's building-standards rollback proposal, and why company/tax reporting (not ABN registration) is the real handicap for small business.00:24:14 — Newspoll: Labor's primary vote "plunges." Labor down to 29 percent (from 31), described by the Jacks as more "meandering" than plunging — with a look at how far off Labor is from its 34.5 percent election benchmark.00:25:31 — Kos Samaras/RedBridge on the new voter blocs. A breakdown of Labor's inner-city, under-45, migrant-heavy base; One Nation's mortgage-stressed, outer-suburban trades vote; and the Coalition's shrinking, wealthy, over-55 remnant — plus where the Jacks think the analysis oversimplifies.00:28:42 — How the Coalition lost its heartland. Reflections on 19 years of Coalition government since Howard, the failure to read demographic warning signs, and the loss of both the "asset rich" and "asset poor" ends of its old coalition.00:31:49 — Content warning: child sexual abuse. Former Bishop of Broome Christopher Saunders, 76, found guilty of one count of sexual penetration and multiple indecent assault charges against a young Indigenous man; sentencing yet to be scheduled.00:32:50 — Saunders' pattern of behaviour. Allegations of financial mismanagement, smuggling alcohol into dry Indigenous communities, a 2019 police raid uncovering exploitation material, and a Vatican finding he likely abused Indigenous youth.00:34:59 — The Bishop Ronald Mulkearns parallel. The Ballarat bishop's Royal Commission appearance and mysterious final holiday hosted by Saunders in Broome shortly before his death.00:37:06 — The Four Corners/Mahmoud Fazal scandal. Fazal's background as a self-described former Mongols bike gang sergeant-at-arms turned journalist; his Cocaine Nation and Meth Highway reports pulled from air, along with a Background Briefing program.00:38:33 — Media Watch's verdict. Linton Besser's assessment that Fazal was "embellishing his journalism," and how ABC's editorial oversight failed across two flagship programs.00:39:39 — The Jordan Shanks (Friendly Jordies) threat allegations. Fazal's alleged role relaying threats from the Alameddine crime family after Shanks' house was firebombed twice; Fazal disputes the death-threat characterisation.00:41:36 — Where journalism crosses into participation. Jack the Insider's personal rule against interviewing active criminals, and a wider discussion of when reporters become "players" rather than observers — including a detour to the "Poison Dwarf," Clayton Milne.00:46:20 — A 2006 ice epidemic documentary as the gold standard. A comparison piece where public health officials and police saw the crystal meth wave coming years before government — done properly, without masked, unverifiable sources.00:48:21 — South Australia's $3 million AI Royal Commission. Premier Peter Malinauskas announces the inquiry; the Jacks are sceptical it will produce much, suspecting it's more about attracting AI investment.00:49:27 — The AI investment bubble risk. Massive capital flowing into Anthropic, Meta and Google versus cheaper, competitive Chinese models — and what that imbalance could mean for the S&P 500's AI-heavy weighting.00:51:00 — Israel rejects Trump's 15-point Gaza plan. Distrust that Hamas will disarm, and why the stakes feel existential rather than abstract for Israelis.00:52:32 — Israel's 27 October election.

This week on the Mark Levin Show, political correctness is running amok in the WNBA. There are two issues facing the WNBA: transgender athletes and racism. A small fraction of athletes - transgenders - are threatening to destroy opportunities for biological women and girls. This is not a civil rights issue. Women have fought for 50 years for equality in sports. That doesn't mean men and women are the same. It means women and girls have the opportunity to flourish in athletics. It's time to make a decision: will a relatively handful of individuals destroy the purpose of a women's sports league? Or will the overwhelmingly biological female athletes compete on a level playing field. The WNBA is a business and the hierarchy and players should treat it as such. The only color that should matter is the color of money: green. Whether it's the men's NBA or the WNBA, people want to see the best athletes, regardless of color. Later, the Iranian regime is gearing up for a prolonged showdown with President Trump by keeping their economy functioning just enough to withstand a drawn-out U.S. military campaign. As Gen. Jack Keane says, they think they have the upper hand in the Strait of Hormuz and will become more violent as the midterm elections approach. Keane says using economic levers is good but must also play the military card. But is allowing the regime to stall for time the right play? Why not arm the Iranian people and take out Iran's infrastructure, starting with Kharg Island? This is also playing into the hands of the woke-Reich neo-fascist isolationists. By calling for American withdrawal now, they give aid and comfort to the enemy. And letting Iran think they have control over the Strait sends the wrong message to countries like China. What will the U.S. do if the Chinese block the South China Sea? Also, the difference between the Democratic Party and the Democratic Socialists of America is not significant—the DSA is the logical extension of the Democrat Party, which has birthed it and remains sympathetic to its core aims; most Democrats are comfortable with DSA figures in Congress, state legislatures, and governorships. This agenda of fundamentally altering constitutional structure and the economic system has defined the party since Woodrow Wilson, even if Democrats refuse the labels communist or Marxist and prefer softer rhetoric. Furthermore, Gov. Kathy Hochul and Zohran Mamdani are excited that local law enforcement will not work with ICE to deport criminal illegal aliens. Are New Yorkers happy about this?

The problems miring our school districts. Seth also explores the issue of literacy and its importance in society, pointing out that fewer than half of Americans read a book in a given year. The discussion also touches on the topic of critical thinking and the dangers of Marxist ideology in education, where students are being taught to focus on feelings and emotions rather than facts and knowledge. Producer David Doll discusses Major League Baseball’s latest contest involving food. According to Democratic Michigan Senate candidate Dr. Abdul El-Sayed football parallels slavery and colonialism.

On Wednesday's Mark Levin Show, the difference between the Democratic Party and the Democratic Socialists of America is not significant—the DSA is the logical extension of the Democrat Party, which has birthed it and remains sympathetic to its core aims; most Democrats are comfortable with DSA figures in Congress, state legislatures, and governorships. This agenda of fundamentally altering constitutional structure and the economic system has defined the party since Woodrow Wilson, even if Democrats refuse the labels communist or Marxist and prefer softer rhetoric. Later, more billionaires would benefit the country because they create and spread enormous wealth rather than hoarding it, with capitalism redistributing prosperity through markets and supply-demand rather than failed top-down control driven by non-economic motives. More billionaires mean more capital, investment, jobs, incomes, pensions, medical care, and tax revenue; this is why Gov Ron DeSantis invites them to Florida to fuel construction, load banks with cash that is then lent out, and circulate money through the economy. Critics fail to grasp this due to jealousy, fearmongering, and preference for centralized power, yet the more billionaires exist, the more wealth and jobs are generated for more people, as even non-business wealth gets invested in banks, stocks, loans, and enterprises that support small businesses and employment. Afterward, ignoring Hayek, Friedman, Sowell, free-market economics, and individual liberty amounts to becoming Democrat Party light. True common good rests solely on the principles of the Declaration of Independence and the Enlightenment, with no connection to economic intervention; the intellectual foundation remains figures like Buckley, de Tocqueville, Adam Smith, Burke, and Locke, not online or TikTok content. Finally, the federal budget deficit is on track to surpass $2 trillion this fiscal year as spending outpaces revenue. Tax revenues increase by $139 billion, but spending increased by $308 billion. Increased spending driven by entitlement programs: Social Security, Medicare and Medicaid, in addition to servicing the national debt. Even with a 5-8% increase in revenue, the government can't stop spending money. And Democrats complain we're not spending enough! Democrats would destroy private health insurance and Medicare would collapse. The worry: economic turmoil leads to social turmoil. Learn more about your ad choices.

Brian T. Kennedy, president of the American Strategy Group, chairman of the Committee on the Present Danger: China, and a board member and senior fellow of the Claremont Institute, shares on the importance of policing and the dangers of communism in America. The conversation starts with a nostalgic look back at classic television cop shows like Hill Street Blues and Hawaii Five-O, which highlighted the importance of law enforcement in maintaining a civil society. Seth and Brian touch on the normalization of communism in America, with Brian pointing out the alarming trend of Marxist ideology taking hold in the Democratic Party. He argues that this is a result of a lack of understanding and a failure to articulate the dangers of communism, which has led to a culture of tolerance for radical ideologies. Seth and Brian also discuss the importance of national defense and the need for a strong military to protect American interests.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

 “He's not a trustworthy witness to his own story. Everything is ten times bigger and better than it really was — except when he was accused of crimes, in which case he can't really remember anymore.” — Joby Warrick on Carlos the Jackal Yesterday, WOLA's Adam Isacson and John Walsh described how the US government has appropriated the term “narco-terrorism” to justify their Latin American killing spree. Today, we talk the real thing. Pulitzer Prize-winning Joby Warrick has a new book out about the rise and fall of Carlos the Jackal, who he calls the “original super-terrorist.” So who was Carlos the Jackal? Originally he was named by his Venezuelan Marxist father Ilich in homage to Lenin. Then he renamed himself Carlos, borrowing from a fake passport the French police happened to find in 1975. While The Jackal came from the London Guardian after reporters spotted Frederick Forsyth's best-seller on the bookshelf of his London safe house. Ilich (i.e. Carlos) loved it. Anything for attention. Especially from the capitalist media. His career, as a proxy Palestinian terrorist, was equally audacious. His solo debut, at 24, was the attempted London assassination of Marks & Spencer chairman Joseph Sieff. Two years later, Carlos waltzed into OPEC headquarters in Vienna and kidnapped most of the world's oil ministers, a terrorist heist that, Warrick reveals, was financed by Muammar Gaddafi. Then all of Carlos' yesterdays — and there are many, as Warrick discovers when he interviews him in his French jail. He spent twenty years on the run, mostly barely camouflaged in faded Eastern European hotels. The Mossad didn't even consider him worth assassinating. By the eighties he had become a gun for hire who'd stopped attacking Israelis. And at 75, in his convent-turned-prison outside Paris, the world's original super-terrorist cooks his own meals, repeats old leftist slogans, and misremembers everything except his innocence. In spite of his pathetic fate, Carlos matters because, as Warrick notes, the Jackal model is back in fashion. Russia and Iran now hire petty crooks on Telegram for a few hundred dollars to firebomb synagogues or assassinate dissidents. Gaza's tragic hopelessness echoes the post-1967 conditions that bred the first wave of Palestinian terror. Social media is now infested with wannabe violent influencers. The day of the Jackal, then, is not only our history but also our future. Five Takeaways •       Interview with the Jackal. Warrick negotiated for over a year — with Carlos, then with a French government determined he not be glorified, since his gravest crimes were against French citizens — for roughly ninety minutes in March 2025, no recorder, no camera, notebook only. The prison is a converted sixteenth-century convent outside Paris where the Nazis once tortured members of the Resistance; inside it, Carlos remains the big man on campus — guards call him Carlos, not Ilich, and he keeps a large cell, cooks his own meals, and browses the internet. At 75 he is natty, polyglot, charming — and stooped, forgetful, repeating himself into what Warrick calls a fog of old memories. As a witness he is worthless: everything ten times bigger and better than it was, except the crimes, which he suddenly cannot recall.•       Ilich, Carlos, Jackal: An Accidental Brand. His ardent-Marxist father named his three sons Vladimir, Ilich, and Lenin, after the founder of the Soviet Union. “Carlos” came from a fake passport — Carlos Martinez — that French police happened to seize in 1975; the pudgy dark-glasses photo the world memorized was a passport fake he remains embarrassed by. “The Jackal” was coined by the British tabloids after reporters prowling his London safe house spotted Forsyth's The Day of the Jackal on the bookshelf. He embraced all of it: a true believer whose slogans still pour out in prison, welded to a massive ego that always placed Carlos at the center of the revolution. Had Instagram existed, Warrick agrees, he'd have used it — the pre-digital influencer, with the world's press as his platform.•       From Five Bullets to Kidnapping OPEC. His 1970 baptism of fire in the Black September fighting hardened him past the point of return; his solo test, at 24, was the attempted assassination of Marks & Spencer chairman Joseph Sieff — an old gun, five bullets, a jam, and a bullet deflected by the victim's teeth (“good old Milk Marketing Board,” Sieff told the BBC from his hospital bed). The masterpiece came in December 1975: a 26-year-old walks into OPEC's Vienna headquarters mid-conference, takes the world's oil ministers hostage, extracts a plane and a ransom, and flies them to North Africa — the most audacious terrorist act Warrick can name. The book's scoop settles who sponsored it: not Saddam Hussein, as biographers and a 2010 docudrama claimed, but Muammar Gaddafi — the autocrat pioneering the criminal proxy with no return address.•       Twenty Years, No Capture — and a Mossad Pass. The world's most wanted man spent two decades in comfort: Budapest his favorite hideout (good meals, nice hotels — Carlos insisted on top-flight everything), the Hungarians, East Germans, and Romanians almost proud to host their superstar guest, Assad's Syria always available. The run ended only when the Bloc fell and the Arab states tired of him; the French and Americans finally tracked him to Khartoum in 1994. The great deflation is the Mossad: they never bothered with him. His mentor Wadi Haddad — the true operational genius — they hunted and killed; Carlos, by then a mercenary who'd stopped attacking Israelis, simply fell down the priority list. The world's most fearsome terrorist wasn't worth Israel's effort.•       The Return of Violent Chaos. Warrick's closing argument, and the reason this history is news: the Gaddafi model has been rediscovered. Russia and Iran now hire criminals — recruited on Telegram, paid a few hundred dollars in crypto — to throw grenades into synagogues, set fires, and assassinate dissidents: hundreds of incidents already, most under the radar, none traceable to Moscow or Tehran. The modern Carlos works for whoever pays; ideology has left the business entirely. Gaza's hopelessness, meanwhile, mirrors the post-1967 despair that launched the first international terror wave — and we are not prepared. As for America's own extrajudicial turn, from drone war to boat strikes: “There's no precedent... it is a grave change for us as Americans. Very troubling to me.” About the Guest Joby Warrick is a two-time Pulitzer Prize-winning journalist and veteran national security correspondent for The Washington Post. His books include The Triple Agent, Red Line, and Black Flags: The Rise of ISIS, winner of the 2016 Pulitzer Prize for General Nonfiction. The Jackal: The Rise and Fall of Carlos, the World's First Super-Terrorist (Scribner, August 18, 2026), built on newly declassified archives, secret police files, and a rare interview with Carlos himself, is out next week.

Why did NASA lose its dominance in space while SpaceX became the world's launch leader?In this fascinating conversation, David and Stacy Whited sit down with bestselling author, economist, and historian Rainer Zitelmann to explore why capitalism—not government bureaucracy—is driving the future of space exploration. From the failures of the Space Shuttle program to Elon Musk's reusable rockets, Rainer explains how free markets are transforming the new space race and why Mars may ultimately be settled by entrepreneurs rather than governments.The discussion also dives into Rainer's remarkable personal journey from a committed Marxist and Maoist to one of the world's strongest defenders of capitalism. He shares why he believes capitalism has lifted billions out of poverty, why socialism has repeatedly failed throughout history, and why the battle over economic freedom could determine humanity's future both on Earth and beyond.If you've ever wondered why SpaceX continues to outperform government space programs—or what the next frontier for civilization really looks like—this is a conversation you won't want to miss.

This week on the Mark Levin Show, it's particularly annoying that numerous national political figures refuse to discuss the significant and growing Islamist threat in the United States. Islamism is the greatest cultural threat we face. What is the ruling class is doing to stop Islamists from entering the country? Are we reviewing the status of those already here who promote radical views? Conservatives need to take over at the local level and reject mosque expansions, which isn't about restricting religious freedom but defending it against Islamist intolerance of religious diversity. Meanwhile, issues like universal healthcare are falsely cast as civil rights to advance a Marxist agenda that expands “democracy” and “rights” while threatening programs like Medicare and opposing enforcement against illegal immigration; supporting candidates like Abdul El-Sayed in Michigan would harm both the state and the country. Also, Sen Chris Van Hollen is a radical nut job, Jew hater, and Israel hater. Van Hollen defends Democrats against communist labels by citing Republican attacks on FDR over Social Security. What did FDR do? FDR created internment camps of 120,000 Japanese Americans, refusing to sign a bipartisan anti-lynching bill to protect Southern votes, imposing Jewish immigration quotas during the Holocaust, and enacting socialist policies including industrial trusts and price/wage controls that prolonged the Depression, arguing socialism redistributes rather than creates wealth. Later, Wisconsin Governor candidate Francesca Hong views Thanksgiving as racist and posted in 2021 that Americans should cancel it. This is the problem with insufficiently patriotic immigrants welcomed into the Democratic Party's big tent. Later, by the skin of his teeth, Abdul El-Sayed is now the Democratic candidate for the Senate in Michigan. Early data shows El-Sayed did well with White, relatively wealthy college graduates, but not so well with union/blue collar workers and Blacks. El-Sayed will face Republican Mike Rogers, a good, solid candidate, in the November general election. El-Sayed will get the support of the media and he'll play down his Islamism and his association with people like Sen Bernie Sanders and Hasan Piker, who said America deserved 9/11. Let's not pretend El-Sayed is just another progressive. He's an Islamic Marxist. What Democrats have to figure out: how do you build a party around elitists? Claims from some on the fringes of the conservative movement—that younger people today face uniquely hard times due to student debt, homeownership barriers, and inflation driven by the war with Iran—are inaccurate and sound like leftist or socialist talking points. There have been far greater hardships faced by prior generations: the Great Depression's 25% unemployment, widespread business failures, and near-economic collapse, followed by World War II's draft of 16 million Americans with over 600,000 casualties under brutal conditions. Young people today simply do not have it as hard as those of 50–80 years ago - they simply don't. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices

Today On The Eric Metaxas Show, geopolitical analyst Rod Martin joins Eric to explain why conservatives must reject despair and remain engaged in the political fight. They discuss socialist candidates gaining influence inside the Democratic Party, the alliance Martin sees between Marxist and Islamist movements, and why recent elections may create opportunities for Republicans. Martin also lays out his case that President Trump's strategy could weaken or ultimately bring down Iran's regime without another ground war, while reducing conflict across the Middle East and allowing America to focus on China. Eric closes with highlights from the recent Socrates In The City retreat in Oxford, including John Lennox, Nigel Biggar, C.S. Lewis, J.R.R.

On Tuesday's Mark Levin Show, Abdul El-Sayed, who is running for the Democratic nomination for Senate from Michigan, is a very sick person, full of hate. He is on record supporting driver's licenses for illegals, opposing cooperation with ICE, and says America was founded on slavery. Slavery actually existed all over the world when America was founded: Black tribes sold other Africans to Europeans. Slavery exists today in Africa - where Islamists kill and capture Christians in Nigeria -- and in the Middle East. Women are treated horribly in the Middle East, North Africa and Pakistan -- all Islamic areas. America fought a Civil War and amended our Constitution to rid this country of slavery. Nirvana has never existed anywhere, but the America of today is as close as it has ever come. Meanwhile, issues like universal healthcare are falsely cast as civil rights to advance a Marxist agenda that expands “democracy” and “rights” while threatening programs like Medicare and opposing enforcement against illegal immigration; supporting candidates like Abdul El-Sayed in Michigan would harm both the state and the country. Also, Sen Chris Van Hollen is a radical nut job, Jew hater, and Israel hater. Van Hollen defends Democrats against communist labels by citing Republican attacks on FDR over Social Security.

In breaking news, authorities arrested a man Sunday at President Trump's Los Angeles-area golf course after he appeared to monitor security preparations two days ahead of a fundraiser there. The man, who was taking photos and video, carried a 16-round magazine with ammunition in his pocket; a loaded pistol was recovered from his car. He was charged with allegedly carrying a concealed firearm and possessing prohibited ammunition. The arrest was announced by the Los Angeles County Sheriff's Department as Trump prepared to arrive for a Republican National Committee fundraising dinner at the Trump National Golf Course in Rancho Palos Verdes.

One of the most important themes guiding Charlie's life in his final years was protecting Christendom from the encroachment of radical Islam. In this Freedom Night in America event from 2024, Charlie and pastor Andrew Sedra talk about Islam's infiltration of the West and how it has built an alliance with Marxists and the LGBTQ mafia. As Pastor Sedra explains, secularism is impossible: All nations must have a god, and if it is not the God of the Bible, then it will be either the god of Islam or the god of leftism.

On Monday's Mark Levin Show, modern Western societies, enlightened and democratic, are experiencing “soft negative power.” Gradually, our democratic institutions are being subverted by the infiltration of unelected institutions like bureaucracies, independent agencies, and the judiciary. Soft negative power leads to authoritarian democracy. One branch of government absorbs and overtakes the others. Legislatures pass tyrannical laws. Soft negative power is so effective that one of the worst tyrannies of all—Marxism—is now deeply ingrained in the Western psyche. If you take money from one successful person and give it to five others who haven't earned it, who do you think those five people will vote for? This is why America is a republic, not a democracy. This is why the Founding Fathers put in safeguards such as a Senate, Electoral College, and a Supreme Court—things Democratic Socialists despise. Also, Democratic Socialists are Marxists. How different is the Democratic Party from the DSA? Abolish the Electoral College? Pack the SCOTUS? Redistribute wealth? Sounds pretty communist! Megan Romer is the co-chair of the DSA, and she didn't hide anything: on Fox News Sunday, she called for abolishing the Senate, the presidency, the SCOTUS, ICE, borders, and prisons, and wants government ownership of corporations. Steve Kornacki at NBC looked at the poll numbers, and while Democrats love all this Marxism, 8 out of 10 independents want nothing to do with it. Yet Republicans aren't capitalizing on this. Moderate Democrats like John Fetterman don't fit in anymore. Will Republicans provide them a home? Then, Anthony Fauci is set to testify before Rand Paul's Senate committee. Turns out Fauci kept a diary during COVID. He patted himself on the back for all the media attention he received and all the celebrities and high officials he met. But the diary shows he lied to us about COVID's fatality rate. Fauci spouted one set of numbers in public but wrote different numbers in his diary. Look for Rand Paul to rake Fauci over the coals. But remember this the next time someone pushes Medicare for All. We now know there was no scientific basis for the six-foot rule. We now know there was no benefit to masks. If the government controls your healthcare, the government controls what kind of healthcare you get. Finally, news flash: Elon Musk is no longer a trillionaire. Poor Bernie Sanders—he just lost his talking point! SpaceX stock lost $600 billion in value. That's how money works: it's fleeting, and it's investors who determine the value of a company. But Musk is an example of the American Dream. He started with nothing and made something of himself. And so what if he's a billionaire or trillionaire? It doesn't affect you, unless you work for him. Rich people create jobs and prosperity. It's communist regimes where people starve. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices
