After a brief review of Grok becoming 'MechaHitler', we chat about the hysterical meltdown that ensued upon Zohran Mamdani's victory in the Democratic primaries to become candidate for Mayor of New York.  Jack brings his researches into the New York Times smear story and the fascist eugenicist blogger Jordan Lasker (AKA Cremieux) who gave the Times the leaked info.  Daniel brings clips of Megyn Kelly's unhinged Islamophobic response to Mamdani on her podcast, including a conversation with Charlie Kirk in which racism wars for inanity for supremacy. Content warnings. Episode Notes: NBC News, Asked to condemn the phrase ‘globalize the intifada,' Mamdani says mayors shouldn't ‘police speech' https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ggV2SeiGrVw Zohran Mamdani told director mom Mira Nair to pass on Harry Potter movie https://www.the-independent.com/arts-entertainment/films/news/zohran-mamdani-mira-nair-harry-potter-namesake-b2778144.html "'She explained that she was just a month away from filming The Namesake when Warner Bros. reached out to her. Nair said she felt compelled to attend the meetings with the studio because her son had learned to read through J.K. Rowling's Harry Potter books. However, she didn't want to give up on working on her own film, so she asked her then-14-year-old son what to do. “He said to me, ‘Mamma, many good directors can make Harry Potter, but only you can make The Namesake,'” Nair recalled. “And it was such a liberating and clarifying statement, and it kind of is about how I lived my life. Like, what can I do that is so specific that you cannot do? How to make my distinctiveness my calling card.'" The Times of India, Why MAGA Is Losing Its Mind Over Zohran Mamdami Eating Rice With His Hands https://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/etimes/trending/why-maga-is-losing-its-mind-over-zohran-mamdani-eating-rice-with-his-hand/articleshow/122209140.cms "First, let's get one thing straight: eating with your hands isn't dirty, weird, or backward. It's normal. In India, Sri Lanka, Bangladesh, Ethiopia, parts of the Middle East, and even in some parts of Europe, using your hands to eat is a sign of connection—to the food, to your senses, to tradition.  But in the video of Mamdani eating with his fingers, Gill and his supporters saw something else. They didn't see heritage. They saw a threat. Because in their worldview, anything outside the “white, Western” norm becomes fair game for mockery or suspicion. It wasn't about rice.

It's Friday, July 11th, A.D. 2025. This is The Worldview in 5 Minutes heard on 140 radio stations and at www.TheWorldview.com.  I'm Adam McManus. (Adam@TheWorldview.com) By Adam McManus Nigerian Muslims gunned down pastor and Muslim convert to Christ During an evening worship service on Monday, July 7th, Islamic extremists gunned down a Baptist pastor and another worshipper and kidnapped a woman in Katsina State, northwest Nigeria, reports Morning Star News. About 15 to 20 gunmen with Fulani accents stormed Bege Baptist Church in Yaribori village, Kafur County, and shot the Rev. Emmanuel Auta and Gidan Taro, according to TruthNigeria. Church member Zakariya Jatau told Christian Daily International that the pastor was leading a worship service and Bible study when he was shot. He added, “Another member, a lady, was also kidnapped and taken away to an unknown place.” Congregation members said the slain Gidan Taro was a prominent convert from Islam, and that Pastor Auta had worked to reconcile the village's Muslim and Christian communities. Psalm 116:15 says, “Precious in the sight of the LORD is the death of His saints."  Mount Rainer is rattled by more than 300 earthquakes More than 300 earthquakes have erupted at Mount Rainier in Washington State this week, beginning on Tuesday, reports USA Today. It's the largest earthquake swarm at the volcano since 2009. The largest earthquake so far was recorded at a magnitude of 2.3 on the Richter Scale on Wednesday, July 9. The Cascades Volcano Observatory said scientists do not have any concerns about the earthquakes, However, the fear is that one of the most dangerous volcanos in the United States could be waking up. President Trump floats “amnesty for illegals” trial balloon On July 3rd, President Donald Trump announced he's working on mass amnesty for potentially millions of illegal aliens working in farm, hotel, and leisure businesses, reports InformationLiberation.com. He cited a comment made by Agriculture Secretary Brooke Rollins. TRUMP: “Brooke Rollins brought it up, and she said, ‘Uh. So, we have a little problem. The farmers are losing a lot of people.” That's when he proposed amnesty for illegals on the farms and in the hotel industry which he knows will alienate his base. TRUMP: “I got myself into a little trouble because I said, ‘I don't want to take people away from the farmers.'  We want all the criminals out. Everybody agrees. We're finding the criminals, the murderers, the drug dealers. “Some of the farmers, you know, they've had people working for them for years. We're going to, sort of, put the farmers in charge. If a farmer has been with one of these people that work so hard. They bend over all day. We don't have too many people can do that, and they know them very well. And some of the farmers are literally, you know, they cry. “If a farmer is willing to vouch for these people, in some way, [Homeland Security Secretary] Kristi [Noem], I think we're going to have to just say that's going to be good, right? Because we don't want to do it where we take all of the workers off the farms. We want the farms to do great, like they're doing right now. We're working on legislation right now. People that have hotels and leisure properties too “Serious, radical, right people, who I also happen to like a lot, they may not be quite as happy, but they'll understand, won't they? Do you think so?” Pediatrician suggested MAGA voters should die in Texas flood A Houston pediatrician has been fired over a vile post suggesting that the more than 119 killed in the horrific Texas floods — including dozens of kids from Camp Mystic — were President Trump supporters who got “what they voted for,” reports the New York Post. Dr. Christina Propst drew widespread scorn following the disparaging, since-deleted post under her old Facebook username, Chris Tina, according to Mediaite. In her now-deleted post, Dr. Probst wrote, “May all visitors, children, non-MAGA voters and pets be safe and dry. Kerr County MAGA voted to gut FEMA. They deny climate change. May they get what they voted for. Bless their hearts.” Ephesians 4:29 says, “Let no corrupting talk come out of your mouths, but only such as is good for building up, as fits the occasion.” The Facebook post quickly went viral after a screenshot was shared by Libs of TikTok. Propst's employer, Blue Fish Pediatrics, initially said they suspended her  — before announcing that “the individual is no longer employed” there. The company said, “We strongly condemn the comments that were made in that post. That post does not reflect the values, standards, or mission of Blue Fish Pediatrics.” Kerr County, home to around 50,000 people, overwhelmingly voted for President Trump in the November election, with more than 76% of the county's votes going to the Republican presidential candidate, according to county data. After she was fired, Dr. Probst issued an apology in which she said, “I understand my comment caused immense pain to those suffering indescribable grief and for that I am truly sorry.” The number of people missing from the floods has risen to 170, reports the San Antonio Express-News. New Superman movie is woke and anti-Trump And finally, … TV NARRATOR OF ADVENTURE OF SUPERMAN (TV SERIES): “Faster than a speeding bullet. More powerful than a locomotive. Able to leap tall buildings at a single bound.” MAN 1: “Look, up in the sky." MAN 2: "It's a bird." LADY: "It's a plane." MAN 3" "It's Superman." NARRATOR: “Yes, it's Superman, strange visitor from another planet who came to Earth with powers and abilities far beyond those of mortal men, Superman who can change the course of mighty rivers, bend steel in his bare hands, and who, disguised as Clark Kent, mild-mannered reporter for a great metropolitan newspaper, fights a never-ending battle for truth, justice and the American way.” Sadly, actor David Corenswet, who portrays the new Superman in the updated film debuting tonight on the silver screen nationwide told CBS News that he ditched the traditional “truth, justice and the American way” motto for something a bit more inclusive. This version of Superman will be about “truth, justice and all those good things.” One of those good things is certainly not honoring God since God's name is taken in vain nine separate times in the film. In addition, James Gunn, the writer-director of the new Superman has shoehorned his anti-Trump sub-plot into the film. He said, “Yes, Superman is an immigrant, and yes, the people that we support in this country are immigrants and if you don't like that, you're not American. We love our immigrants.” The film shows Superman being roughly treated when detained by the government and is told that, as an alien, he does not have human rights.  Christian talk show host Todd Starnes wrote, “Granted, but Superman is not an MS-13 gangbanger who's mooching off the American taxpayers. He spoke English and had a job – two jobs.” Besides, Starnes concluded, “MAGA supporters are not opposed to immigration. We celebrate those who want to come to this nation legally. We just have a problem with the drug cartels, human traffickers, and the terrorists who want to blow us to kingdom come. “It's not the first time that woke leftists have tried to destroy our beloved all-American superhero.” Close And that's The Worldview on this Friday, July 11th, in the year of our Lord 2025. Follow us on X or subscribe for free by Spotify, Amazon Music, or by iTunes or email to our unique Christian newscast at www.TheWorldview.com.  Plus, you can get the Generations app through Google Play or The App Store.

Mediaite editor Aidan McLaughlin sits down with Adam Friedland, comedian and host of The Adam Friedland Show, for a tell-all interview. They discuss the new season of his show -- his interviews with Sarah Jessica Parker, Steiny, and Anthony Weiner, how he learned the art of the interview, and what he makes of America's love for comedians who talk politics. They also discuss Trump, the NYC mayoral race, and getting accused of anti-Semitism.

White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt ripped into socialist New York mayoral candidate Zohran Mamdani on Monday, and Mediaite editor Colby Hall just couldn't figure out why she would attack this new radical face of the Democratic Party. He even failed to identify him as a mayoral candidate, saying he "isn't even in Congress yet."

Mediaite editor Aidan McLaughlin sits down with Substack co-founder and chief writing officer Hamish McKenzie for a wide-ranging chat about the platform's explosive growth, why he believes the traditional media model is broken, and the future of the industry. They also discuss Trump-era attacks on the press, Elon Musk's efforts to buy Substack -- and his subsequent crackdown on the platform -- and what the rise of independent media means for journalism. This episode was produced by Kathryn Wilkens.

On this week's episode, Dan discusses Sec. Pete Hegseth berating the news media during the briefing on the U.S. strikes against Iran. He also talks about the RFK Jr. Hearing.

Manufacturing orders are down, stocks are down, and mortgage rates are up. But Trump and his family are wealthier than they've ever been. He's got his Ponzi-like crypto scheme, his meme coin, and a boatload of big money types showing up at Mar-a-Lago trying to curry favors from him for some cold, hard cash. Meanwhile, Trump is play-acting like he has a strong hand, but he's begging China to make a deal. Plus, the administration is defunding science and our world-renowned medical centers to buy crypto. And the Abrego Garcia kidnapping and imprisonment has touched a nerve in surprising ways.

Mediaite editor Aidan McLaughlin speaks with Politico White House Bureau Chief Dasha Burns. She talks of her recent reporting on tensions between Trump's Cabinet and Elon Musk over his DOGE cuts, threats to the press under Trump's second term, and how the president is weighing his personal legacy versus the midterm electability of Republican senators and house members.

This week on the Mark Levin Show, critics are trashing Attorney General Pam Bondi and the Department of Justice for allegedly politicizing prosecutions and investigations. Despite the increasingly alarmist claims about the politicization of the Trump DOJ, the Supreme Court needs to disregard the noise from commentators and swiftly address the judicial overreach by lower court judges who are usurping fundamental executive powers. These district judges are severely undermining the separation of powers and representative government, eroding public trust in the judiciary. It is their politicization that poses a real threat to the justice system. It has become evident that federal trial courts are engaged in a non-violent insurrection against the elected President and the executive branch, as these judges issue rulings on decisions made by the Trump administration. Later, this week marked the 80th anniversary of the Battle of Iwo Jima, a brutal conflict against the Japanese in WWII. It's very important to remember these battles. One might ponder if, even back then, some accused the U.S. of sparking the conflict by provoking Japan. Aggregator sites like Drudge and Mediaite, often run by left-wing individuals, spin content from this show to create misleading headlines, such as claiming Levin is defying President Trump over his views on Putin, and Zelensky.

On Friday's Mark Levin Show, corporate media isn't dead yet but it's not what it used to be. It's filled with propaganda and pseudo-events. There are aggregator sites like Mediaite that don't have a single clip about the horrors in Israel breaking every hour, but lots of Ukraine-Russia etc. Also, there's a small percentage of people in America who support Putin, Putinoids, - Trump is not one of them despite the media's efforts.  The issue with Putin and Russia extends beyond Ukraine, but too often, people fail to see the bigger picture. Putin has openly talked about ambitions that reach far beyond Ukraine's borders. Later, Trump's minerals strategy is a stroke of genius. Ukraine holds trillions in untapped mineral wealth, a prize Russia is desperate to claim. Rather than simply funneling cash into Ukraine, Trump suggests a smarter play: partner with Ukraine through deals that bring American companies in to mine and process these resources. A mutually beneficial financial arrangement could be struck, fueling Ukraine's reconstruction while securing vital metals and minerals for the U.S.—and keeping them away from Russia.  This approach outshines the Marshall Plan, offering more than just aid—it's a strategic win.

On Thursday's Mark Levin Show, aggregator sites like Drudge and Mediaite, often run by left-wing individuals, spin content from this show to create misleading headlines, such as claiming Levin is defying President Trump over his views on Putin, and Zelensky. This narrative is pseudo-news meant to provoke a nonexistent feud – it won't work.  Later, Israel's Ambassador to the U.S., Yechiel Leiter, called in and emphasized that Israel is engaged in a fight for its civilization. He revealed the grim news that Hamas had returned four bodies, with Hamas shamelessly rejoicing in the act. However, he clarified that the fourth body, Shiri Bibas, was not the mother's body but instead an unidentified one. These terrorists are monstrous.  Also, Kash Patel has been confirmed as FBI Director. This marks a stark contrast to Trump's first term when Democrats stalled his nominees for months. Yet, despite not even stepping into the role, Patel is already facing Democrat attacks.  Finally, the EPA discovered that the Biden administration awarded $2 billion to a Stacey Abrams-linked climate group.  There needs to be a criminal investigation of this. None of this would have been uncovered if not for Trump. EPA Administrator Lee Zeldin calls in to discuss these findings. The EPA found billions of dollars' worth of “Gold Bars.” Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices
