On Tuesday's Mark Levin Show, communism is all about working people -- killing them, enslaving them, and brutalizing them. It's amazing how the Communists talk up "the working people." For communists, working people exist to serve the state and its centralized masterminds rather than as sovereign individuals. Only in free societies, especially America, are working people the heart and soul of society—the backbone of freedom. Communism is the most defective ideology ever imposed because it requires no knowledge or experience—only an iron fist and a destructive ideology that ignores human nature for an undefined “general good.” Meanwhile, Daniel Ortega, obviously a Communist, has announced no more elections in Nicaragua. If the Marxists-Islamists and, yes, the Democrat Party get their way, election results will be nothing but a foregone conclusion in their favor, a Potemkin exercise in phony democracy, as they destroy the electoral processes established in our Constitution and further alter our immigration and census systems, as well as usurp electoral procedures in the states. Also, this on-again, off-again conflict with Iran won't lead to victory. Success requires fully embracing available tools: first, arming, training, and supporting the Iranian people with air cover, satellite monitoring, and a determined CIA leadership; second, ignoring pressure from Arab countries while fully utilizing Israel's powerful air force, Mossad intelligence, and IDF.Later, the Democrats' new Senate candidate in Maine to replace Graham Platner Troy Jackson has his own issues yet faces little accountability. Separately, Michigan socialist Abdul El-Sayed is set for a campaign fundraiser co-hosted by Kelly Newman, who in 2024 honored her grandfather's military service for the Nazis. Finally, the media constantly demands evidence of non-citizens voting and claims none exists, yet Gov Mikie Sherrill announced thousands of non-citizens were found on the state's voting rolls due to a software glitch in the motor vehicle system. This exposes the larger issue that federal law requires states to purge voter rolls periodically, but blue states like New Jersey and California refuse, leaving dead people, movers, and illegal aliens on the rolls. Democrats and the media still insist elections are the cleanest in history while opposing voter ID and lying about existing requirements—proving they enable fraud rather than clean the system.

On Monday's Mark Levin Show, the Iranian regime's ballistic missiles have caused more American casualties -this regime must be destroyed with no further timeouts, negotiations, or delays, as it's their nature is to string out conflicts while rebuilding just enough capacity to outlast the Trump administration and complicate matters through the midterms via Democratic impeachment threats. The Army identified two soldiers killed in from Iran's attack at Mufuak Salti Air Base in Jordan—1st Lt. Tyler James Freean, and Private Isabella Gonzalez. President Trump has directed that Iran will pay many times over for every American killed. Also, an armed lunatic set off an incendiary device in an apparent anti-ICE attack outside a federal building housing FBI and ICE offices in NYC. Violence against ICE is up 1,300%. This is what happens when Democrats repeatedly demonizing ICE as Nazis who “disappear” people, along with similar rhetoric against Trump, Republicans, Netanyahu, and Israel. Later, the Tate brothers, once celebrated and applauded by figures in the Woke Reich like Tucker Carlson, and Steve Bannon, are now detained on a UK provisional arrest warrant seeking extradition for dozens of rapes, human trafficking, and related charges. These are scumbags running a slave sex operation and are not conservatives or people to promote or defend. These thugs and their enablers should be rejected - MAGA supporters want nothing to do with them. Afterward, the ICC is a complete political setup job that the United States and Israel do not recognize. No, Zohran Mamdani cannot arrest Benjamin Netanyahu while he's at the UN in NYC – it's a crime to attempt to arrest an elected head of state. Mamdani is hypocritically targeting only Netanyahu while giving a pass to mass-murdering dictators and leaders from Arab, Muslim, and other regimes. Finally, the growing cabal of Marxist Islamists, who want to destroy America, will swallow the Democrat leadership. They continue to claim they are for the “working people.” Marxist polices enslave the working people. The mass grave in in communist China, the Soviet Union, and North Korea were all filled with hardworking people who rejected those systems. Learn more about your ad choices.

www.patreon.com/theconspiracypodcastIn Part Two, Sean, Jorge, and Eric dive straight into the theories that have kept the Isdal Woman's case alive for over half a century.She died in a Norwegian valley under at least eight false identities, and fifty-five years later, no one still knows who she really was. Was she a Cold War intelligence operative, her movements lining up suspiciously close to Norway's top-secret missile testing sites while the country's secret police quietly opened their own file behind the scenes? Was she connected to a Swiss banker infamous for financing Nazi sympathizers and extremist causes across decades? Was she an international fraudster running a long con across the continent, or a woman working discreetly for a clientele who had every reason to stay silent after her death? And underneath every theory sits the same unanswered question: was it suicide, or murder?The guys also break down the forensic science that's chipped away at the mystery over the years — isotope analysis narrowing down where she may have grown up, DNA testing tracing a maternal line to a part of the world none of her fake passports ever claimed — and how a fifty-year-old cold case turned into one of the most successful true crime podcasts ever made. Tens of thousands of amateur investigators from around the world are still hunting for answers today, still combing through old sketches and hotel records, still trying to finish what Norwegian police gave up on decades ago. And even after all that science, all that attention, and all those true believers, the Isdal Woman remains buried under a name that was never hers.Let us know your theory. Who was she, and what really happened in Ice Valley?
At 16, his grandmother fled Kraków after the Nazis killed her father, worked a New York factory floor beside her mother, and applied to every medical school in the state three years running before one finally said yes — then told her second-grade grandson that education is the only thing nobody can ever take away from him.Years later, David Rogier quit his venture capital job with no idea what he wanted to build, and his boss wrote him a check for $500,000 and told him to go think of something; the dark, formless year that followed became MasterClass, whose holding company still carries his grandmother's nickname. Launch day brought so few sales that he went home and cried, and by day four it was obvious he had a real business on his hands. In this conversation, David breaks down how he got Hollywood's biggest names to say yes, why he believes degrees and résumés are quickly becoming worthless, and the three kinds of jobs he thinks will actually survive AI. David Rogier is the founder and CEO of MasterClass, the platform that put instruction from Martin Scorsese, Christina Aguilera, Steph Curry, and dozens of other world-class practitioners into the hands of millions of learners. He built it from a single $500,000 check and has since launched MasterClass Executive, an AI-native alternative to the traditional MBA created in collaboration with OpenAI and the University of Chicago Booth School of Business.

In early September 1944, as Allied forces raced across France and Belgium, the German occupation of Brussels was beginning to collapse. On 2 September, around 1,500 prisoners, including members of the Belgian Resistance, Allied airmen, SOE agents, and political prisoners, were taken from Brussels prisons and loaded onto a train bound for Germany. For many, it seemed certain they were heading for concentration camps. But over the next two days, a remarkable series of delays and acts of resistance by Belgian railway workers and prison officials prevented the train from reaching its destination. The convoy became known as the Ghost Train. Joining me to discuss this extraordinary story is Greg Lewis, author of The Nazi Ghost Train. patreon.com/ww2podcast
Mother Maria was born in Latvia in 1891. Like many of the pre-Revolutionary Russian intelligenstia, she was an atheist and a political radical in her youth, but gradually came to accept the truths of the Faith. After the Revolution, she became part of the large Russian emigre population of Paris. There she was tonsured as a nun by Metropolitan Evlogy, and devoted herself to a life of service to the poor. With a small community of fellow-believers, she established 'houses of hospitality' for the poor, the homeless, and the alcoholic, and visited Russian emigres in mental hospitals. In 1939 Metropolitan Evlogy sent the young priest Fr Dimitry to serve Mother Maria's community; he proved to be a partner, committed even unto death, in the community's work among the poor. When the Nazis took Paris in 1940, Mother Maria, Fr Dimitry, and others of the community chose to remain in the city to care for those who had come to count on them. As Nazi persecution of Jews in France increased, the Orthodox community's work naturally expanded to include protection and care of these most helpless ones. Father Dimitri was asked to provide forged certificates of baptism to preserve the lives of Jews, and always complied. Eventually, this work led to the arrest of Mother Maria, Fr Dimitri, and their associates. A fragment survives of the Gestapo's interrogation of Fr Dimitri: Hoffman: If we release you, will you give your word never again to aid Jews? Klepinin: I can say no such thing. I am a Christian and must act as I must. (Hoffman struck Klepinin across the face.) Hoffman: Jew lover! How dare you talk of helping those swine as being a Christian duty! (Klepinin, recovering his balance, held up the cross from his cassock.) Klepinin: Do you know this Jew? (For this, Father Dimitri was knocked to the floor.) "Your priest did himself in," Hoffman said afterward to Sophia Pilenko. "He insists that if he were to be freed, he would act exactly as before." Mother Maria, Fr Dimitri, and several of their colleages, were sent to the Nazi concentration camps (Mother Maria to Ravensbruck, Fr Dimitri to Buchenwald) where, after great sufferings, they perished. It is believed that Mother Maria's last act was to take the place of a Jew being sent to death, voluntarily dying in his place. A full account of their life and death is given on the site of the Orthodox Peace Fellowship. Mother Maria and her companions were glorified by the Patriarchate of Constantinople in 2004.

Vancouver Holocaust survivor Adam Policzer, 87, is marking three major milestones this summer: the publication of his first English-language Holocaust autobiography in the form of a 60-page graphic novel, The House Across the Street; the premiere of a documentary about his life; and the 80th anniversary of his reunion with his father after the Second World War in July 1946. Eighty years ago, Policzer was reunited with his father, who had fled Hungary before the outbreak of the Second World War and found safety in Chile. But the child and his mother didn't get out in time before the Nazis invaded Hungary. So, Policzer's mother arranged to hide her young son with the Christian family living across the street in the city of Miskolc. She was later deported to Auschwitz, and eventually perished in a Nazi slave-labour camp in Poland. Policzer eventually moved from Chile to Vancouver, B.C. in the 1970s, where he worked as an architect. He and his wife wanted to leave a memoir for their grandchildren, so he drew his story as a graphic novel, published in Canada in June by Dirty Water Comics. Policzer believes he is one of the few child survivors who vividly remembers the Holocaust, and possibly one of the only survivors to tell his story as a graphic novel with his own drawings. The story has also inspired a new documentary about him which recently premiered at the Toronto Jewish Film Festival. On today's fresh episode of The CJN's North Star podcast, Adam Policzer joins host Ellin Bessner to explain how drawing his images helped him deal with his Holocaust trauma, while paying tribute to the Christian family that repeatedly risked their lives to save his, but never qualified for recognition by Yad Vashem. Also joining are the filmmakers Jamie Michaels and Liam Karp, both from Winnipeg.

Today we're breaking down the newest UFO document release and asking the questions almost nobody else is asking. We'll examine what these files actually say about non-human intelligence (NHI), why the government continues releasing information without providing any real context, and whether the public is being guided toward a predetermined conclusion rather than the truth. We'll also dive into the documents' references to German flying saucer projects, Project Paperclip, reverse-engineering claims, and the possibility that the UFO mystery has always been far more connected to hidden technology and interdimensional questions than extraterrestrials from outer space.Please consider donating to Ron Patton's GoFundMe.

Charles Spicer describes how, during the 1937 coronation of George VI, Ribbentrop hosted a chaotic, overcrowded party at the German embassy. Despite the champagne-fueled festivities, the event was a social failure that highlighted the growing friction between the two cultures. Meanwhile, Vansittart realized the traditional intelligence services had poor access to the Nazi leadership. He established a parallel network—"Van's Detective Agency"—utilizing Christie and Conwell-Evans as private intelligence sources. Conwell-Evans, previously optimistic, underwent a total volte-face in 1937, bravely shifting his focus to gathering intelligence through his high-level German networks to warn the Britishgovernment. (7)1945
Charles Spicer recounts how, in December 1934, Ernest Tennant, a businessman scarred by the horrors of the Great War, dined with Adolf Hitler and Joachim von Ribbentrop at the Reich Chancellery. At the time, Ribbentrop was a passionate Anglophile, and Tennant's goal was to foster cooperation to prevent another continental conflict. Disappointed by the British government's initial disdain for the "vulgar" Nazi regime, Tennant partnered with the brilliant scholar Philip Conwell-Evans and the aristocratic Lord Lothian to form the Anglo-German Fellowship. This organization aimed to build cultural and political bridges between London and Berlin during a period of deep historical trauma. (1)1914
Charles Spicer explains that by 1935, major business interests like Unilever joined the Fellowship to protect trade and understand the new German regime. Following the Night of the Long Knives, some optimists believed Hitler'sgovernment was becoming more "civilized." The Fellowship provided extraordinary lobbying power, allowing Tennantto secure meetings with Hitler that traditional diplomats could not reach. German industrialists like Robert Bosch, who privately loathed the Nazis, also sought connections in London. This era was marked by parallel efforts in both nations to avoid war through financial and industrial engagement, despite growing signs of Nazi brutality. (2)1914
Charles Spicer introduces Grahame Christie, a decorated World War I flying ace and engineer who dedicated himself to warning Britain about German rearmament. Working with Robert Vansittart, Christie utilized his friendship with Hermann Göring to gather intelligence on the buildup of the Luftwaffe. Despite the shock of the 1935 Nuremberg Laws, Fellowship members continued lobbying Nazi contacts to reconsider their path. In March 1936, Christie provided an accurate one-day warning of the Rhineland invasion. However, Britain failed to act due to overwhelming pacifist sentiment, missing what historians consider the greatest opportunity to stop Hitler early. (3)1940
Charles Spicer describes how, during the 1937 coronation of George VI, Ribbentrop hosted a chaotic, overcrowded party at the German embassy. Despite the champagne-fueled festivities, the event was a social failure that highlighted the growing friction between the two cultures. Meanwhile, Vansittart realized the traditional intelligence services had poor access to the Nazi leadership. He established a parallel network—"Van's Detective Agency"—utilizing Christie and Conwell-Evans as private intelligence sources. Conwell-Evans, previously optimistic, underwent a total volte-face in 1937, bravely shifting his focus to gathering intelligence through his high-level German networks to warn the Britishgovernment. (7)1940
Charles Spicer relates how Ribbentrop arrived at Victoria Station as the new German ambassador with a mission to neutralize Britain through a show of friendship. However, his tenure was a disaster; he was socially clumsy, notoriously giving a Hitler salute to the King. His wife, Annelies, was equally thin-skinned and offended by the British habit of teasing. Simultaneously, Nevile Henderson became the British ambassador to Berlin. Henderson, an arch-appeaser who admired the regime's efficiency, was paranoid about upsetting Hitler, further complicating the efforts of amateur spies to communicate the true nature of the Nazi threat to Whitehall. (6)1945
Charles Spicer concludes that after the war, Christie and Conwell-Evans published a limited-run book, None So Blind, detailing their ignored warnings to the government. Though Martin Gilbert later attempted to correct the record, these amateur spies largely slipped from historical memory. Tennant died in 1962, his contributions unacknowledged. Conwell-Evans lived modestly until 1968, having advised five Prime Ministers. Grahame Christie, a heroic and modest figure, committed suicide in 1971 at age 91. Their story remains a testament to the "blindness" of official diplomacy and the bravery of those who tried to "civilize" the Nazis to avert global catastrophe. (16)1943
Occultism was prominent in the highest echelon of the Third Reich, and mysterious figures from the shadows played outsized roles in the future of Germany. Upper management within the Nazi S.S. was reserved for those enlightened in the dark arts, with Aleister Crowley and Helena Blavatsky heavily influencing those in positions of great power. Expeditions were launched globally to explore places under Antarctica, mysterious locations in the Andes of Peru, and the entrance to the hidden kingdom of Shambala inside the hollow Earth in Tibet, all searching for confirmation of their superiority through the collection of ancient artifacts. What did they find in these magical places, and did the Nazis really lose the war?Guest: Matt Ehret | https://substack.com/@matthewehret---Macroaggressionswww.Macroaggressions.ioMerch StoreLink Tree Video ChannelsRumble | YouTube | BrighteonActivist PostNewsletter Sign UpAudiobooksHypocrazyThe Octopus of Global ControlSupport Our SponsorsReplace Your Mortgage: www.WipeOutYourMortgageNow.comGround Luxe Grounding MatsC60 Power | Promo Code: MACROChemical Free Body | Promo Code: MACROWise Wolf Gold & SilverLegalShield: www.DontGetPushedAround.comChristian Yordanov's Health ProgramThe Dollar VigilanteNesa's Hemp | Promo Code: MACROAugason Farms
Step into the shadowy fringes of the unknown with My Dark Path as we unravel the eerie luminous spheres, glowing foo fighters, and humanoid encounters over war-torn Poland during World War II. Host MF Thomas transports you to occupied Warsaw and remote villages where resistance scouts, civilians, and soldiers witnessed the impossible: 18-year-old Kazimierz Bzowski's sighting of a 25-foot metallic sphere with raspberry and bluish-green hues flying low over Bonifraterska Street near the smoldering Warsaw Ghetto, completely impervious to German gunfire before vanishing toward the Old Town; the chilling Nowiny encounter where a 16-year-old and his companion faced a glowing hat-shaped craft and smiling pinkish-grey humanoids who tried to lure them aboard before an invisible force knocked them down; multiple foo fighter reports of intelligent glowing orbs darting playfully over Polish ships and uprising battlefields without hostility; and the fiery brick-red spinning disk rolling horizontally at impossible speeds across the Czudec valley—complete with Bzowski's theories of energetic stitches in Earth's energy web, hints of long-term alien surveillance, striking parallels to modern sphere, disc, and tictac UFOs, and insights from the host's own research journey across Poland. Were these secret Nazi experiments, natural anomalies, misidentified flares, or extraterrestrial observers monitoring humanity's darkest hour? This episode blends eerie narration with historical context, skeptical scrutiny, and believer's evidence. Perfect for fans of unsolved enigmas, WWII UFOs, foo fighters, and the paranormal.

Idsinga explains that homicide detectives do much more than process crime scenes and interview suspects. They also become the people responsible for delivering devastating news to grieving families. One moment they may be chasing a dangerous suspect. The next, they're standing on a family's front porch explaining that someone they love will never come home. "You have to investigate the crime, but you also have to care for the people left behind." That balance between relentless investigation and genuine compassion became one of the defining characteristics of Idsinga's career.

Hunting a Serial Killer Who Terrorized Toronto Perhaps no investigation better demonstrates the complexity of modern homicide investigations than the hunt for one of Toronto's most notorious serial killers. Hunting A Serial Killer in Canada: Retired Toronto Police Talks About the Case That Shocked a Nation. Between 2010 and 2017, eight men, most with connections to Toronto's Gay Village, vanished. At first, the disappearances appeared unrelated. As investigators dug deeper, disturbing patterns began to emerge. The investigation quickly expanded into the largest homicide investigation in Toronto Police Service history. Multiple agencies joined the effort, including: Toronto Police Service (TPS) Ontario Provincial Police (OPP) Royal Canadian Mounted Police (RCMP) Numerous regional law enforcement partners Multiple specialized task forces As the Major Case Manager, Hank Idsinga coordinated an extraordinarily complex investigation involving hundreds of investigators, forensic experts, analysts, intelligence officers, and partner agencies. The pressure was immense. The community demanded answers. Families desperately wanted their loved ones found. The media closely followed every development. The Investigation That Finally Solved the Murders Years of painstaking investigative work eventually led detectives to Bruce McArthur, a self-employed landscaper. The Podcast is available for free on the Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast website, also on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, YouTube, iHeartradio and most major podcast platforms. Investigators uncovered horrifying evidence. The remains of several victims had been concealed inside large planter boxes located on properties where McArthur had worked. McArthur ultimately pleaded guilty to eight counts of first-degree murder. He received a sentence of life imprisonment with no eligibility for parole for 25 years. For investigators, however, the arrest represented more than solving a case. It provided long-awaited answers for grieving families and brought an end to years of fear within Toronto's community. "Every victim deserved answers. Every family deserved the truth." Standing Before the Cameras Throughout the serial killer investigation, Hank Idsinga became the public face of the case. That responsibility required more than investigative skill. It required calm leadership. Every news conference carried enormous significance. Families were listening. The public wanted reassurance. Reporters demanded updates. Criticism surrounding aspects of the investigation intensified as the case unfolded, but Idsinga consistently appeared composed, compassionate, and professional while communicating difficult developments to the public. Hunting A Serial Killer in Canada: Retired Toronto Police Talks About the Case That Shocked a Nation. The Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast continues bringing listeners real conversations from the front lines of crime, policing, trauma, survival, and healing. His ability to balance transparency with investigative integrity earned widespread respect throughout Canada. The Murder of an Eight-Year-Old Child While serial murder investigations receive national headlines, some of the most emotionally devastating cases involve children. Idsinga also served as the lead investigator in the murder of an eight-year-old child, a case that tested every investigator involved. Few crimes affect detectives more profoundly than those involving children. The emotional weight follows investigators long after the evidence has been processed and the courtroom proceedings conclude. "Child homicide investigations stay with you forever." Those cases remind detectives why every decision matters and why justice requires both determination and extraordinary attention to detail. What It Takes to Solve Homicides Television often portrays homicide investigations as quick breakthroughs driven by dramatic confessions. Idsinga explains that reality is far more methodical. Successful investigations depend upon countless hours of: Crime scene analysis Witness interviews Forensic science Intelligence gathering Surveillance Digital evidence Interagency cooperation Persistence Sometimes one overlooked detail changes everything. Sometimes cases take years. Sometimes detectives refuse to quit because families deserve answers. Those lessons form the backbone of Idsinga's investigative philosophy. From Homicide Detective to Bestselling Author After retiring from policing, Hank Idsinga chose to preserve those lessons in writing. His memoir, The High Road: Confessions of a Homicide Cop, became a #1 National Bestseller. The Book offers readers an honest look inside homicide investigations while revealing the emotional realities rarely discussed outside police circles. Hunting A Serial Killer in Canada: Retired Toronto Police Talks About the Case That Shocked a Nation. Supporting articles about this and much more from Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast in platforms like Medium , Blogspot and Linkedin. Rather than glamorizing violence, Idsinga focuses on the human side of policing. Readers discover the victories. The heartbreak. The difficult conversations. The impossible decisions. And the tremendous responsibility detectives carry every day. The book has been praised for bringing authenticity to the true crime genre while honoring both victims and investigators. The Human Side of Homicide One of the strongest themes throughout Idsinga's career is empathy. He never viewed victims as case numbers. Every investigation represented someone's parent. Someone's child. Someone's friend. Someone whose family deserved answers. That perspective helped shape the detective he became and continues to influence the stories he shares today. The episode is available across major platforms including their website, Apple Podcasts, Spotify, YouTube, with highlights shared across their Facebook, Instagram, and LinkedIn profiles. "The investigation doesn't end with an arrest. Families carry that loss forever." Why These Stories Matter Today Public fascination with true crime, Social Media, streaming documentaries, and crime podcasts has never been greater. Millions follow investigations on Facebook, debate cases on Instagram, and listen through the Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast website, Apple Podcasts, Spotify, YouTube, iHeartradio and other Podcast platforms. Hunting A Serial Killer in Canada: Retired Toronto Police Talks About the Case That Shocked a Nation. Yet few hear directly from the investigators who actually solved these cases. That is what makes Hank Idsinga's conversation so compelling. Rather than sensationalizing violence, he provides an honest look at the investigative process, the emotional cost of homicide work, and the professionalism required to pursue justice under extraordinary pressure. His remarkable career demonstrates that solving murders requires far more than intelligence. It requires patience. Compassion. Leadership. And an unwavering commitment to victims who can no longer speak for themselves. For anyone interested in policing, criminal investigations, or the realities behind some of Canada's most significant homicide cases, Hank Idsinga's interview offers a rare opportunity to hear firsthand from the detective who helped bring one of the country's most notorious serial killers to justice while serving victims and their families with dignity throughout an extraordinary Retired Homicide career.

QUOTES FOR REFLECTION“It takes courage to love, but pain through love is the purifying fire which those who love generously know. We all know people who are so much afraid of pain that they shut themselves up like clams in a shell and, giving out nothing, receive nothing and therefore shrink until life is a mere living death.”~Eleanor Roosevelt (1884-1962), diplomat, activist, and longest-serving U.S. first lady “The condition of the Psalmist's mind was complex—he feared, but that fear did not fill the whole area of his mind.... It is possible, then, for fear and faith to occupy the mind at the same moment. We are strange beings, and our experience in the divine life is stranger still. We are often in a twilight, where light and darkness are both present and it is hard to tell which predominates. It is a blessed fear which drives us to trust. Unregenerate fear drives from God, gracious fear drives to him.”~Charles Spurgeon (1834-1892), famed London pastor “The Psalter is the prayer book of Jesus Christ in the truest sense of the word. He prayed the Psalter and now it has become his prayer for all time.”~Dietrich Bonhoeffer (1906-1945), theologian-pastor, executed for his opposition to the Nazis Question 1: What is the chief end of man?Answer: Man's chief end is to glorify God, and to enjoy him forever. Question 2: What rule has God given to direct us how we may glorify and enjoy him?Answer: The Word of God, which is contained in the Scriptures of the Old and New Testaments, is the only rule to direct us how we may glorify and enjoy him. Question 3: What do the Scriptures principally teach?Answer: The Scriptures principally teach, what man is to believe concerning God, and what duty God requires of man.~Westminster Shorter Catechism (1647) “Don't bother to give God instructions; just report for duty.”~Corrie ten Boom (1892-1983), Dutch survivor of a Nazi death campSERMON PASSAGE Psalm 56 (ESV)To the choirmaster: according to The Dove on Far-off Terebinths.A Miktam of David, when the Philistines seized him in Gath. 1 Be gracious to me, O God, for man tramples on me; all day long an attacker oppresses me;2 my enemies trample on me all day long, for many attack me proudly.3 When I am afraid, I put my trust in you.4 In God, whose word I praise, in God I trust; I shall not be afraid. What can flesh do to me? 5 All day long they injure my cause; all their thoughts are against me for evil.6 They stir up strife, they lurk; they watch my steps, as they have waited for my life.7 For their crime will they escape? In wrath cast down the peoples, O God! 8 You have kept count of my tossings; put my tears in your bottle. Are they not in your book?9 Then my enemies will turn back in the day when I call. This I know, that God is for me.10 In God, whose word I praise, in the Lord, whose word I praise,11 in God I trust; I shall not be afraid. What can man do to me? 12 I must perform my vows to you, O God; I will render thank offerings to you.13 For you have delivered my soul from death, yes, my feet from falling, that I may walk before God in the light of life.

It's a shadowy, ornate world of cover-ups and hidden motives. In Flirting with Evil: The Catholic Church in the Age of Total War and Globalisation (Apollo, 2026), Ambrogio Caiani lifts back the heavy velvet curtains of thechancel and peers behind the locked mahogany doors of the Vatican to reveal the shocking truths that make up a century of Catholic corruption. For many, Catholicism's flirtation with evil has become impossible to ignore: a pope courting Nazi officials and, horribly, turning a blind eye to the Holocaust; the Vatican becoming embroiled in a series of dodgy financial dealings; the child abuse continuously perpetrated by members of the clergy. Time and time again, Catholic figures have made terrible choices in private and preached in public about goodness and morality. This is the first history that focuses exclusively on Catholicism throughout the twentieth century, sketching not only scandalous stories of corruption but also lively portrayals of Catholicism's key characters—from a beret-clad communist revolutionary priest to the bizarre morning routine of the pope who followed a daily cold bath with dry unbuttered toast. Caiani, a critical Catholic himself, takes a frank and sceptical look at the trajectory of global Catholicism and wrestles with vital questions about the future of the church. Taking in the wider socio-political contexts of a world at war and the accumulating momentum of social progress, this brilliant history traces the evolution of the Catholic church alongside the development of our modern society right up to the election of Pope Leo XIV in 2025.

On 15 October 1981, at a baseball game between the Oakland Athletics and the New York Yankees in the USA, American cheerleader Krazy George Henderson got fans to stand up and sit down in sections around the stadium. Over the next few years, the cheer spread to supporters of other sports around the country. When crowds at the 1986 FIFA World Cup in Mexico joined in, it went global, earning the nickname the Mexican Wave. Rachel Naylor speaks to Krazy George about why he'd prefer we call it the Krazy Wave. Eye-witness accounts brought to life by archive and testimony. Sporting Witness is for those fascinated by sporting history. We take you to the events that have shaped the sports world through the eyes of the people who were there. For nine minutes, you become a fan in the stands as we take you back in time to examine memorable victories and agonising defeats from all over the world. You'll hear from people who have achieved sporting immortality, or those who were there as incredible sporting moments unfolded. Recent episodes explore the forgotten football Women's World Cup, the plasterer who fought a boxing legend, international football's biggest ever beating and the man who swam the Amazon river. We look at the lives of some of the most famous F1 drivers, tennis players and athletes as well as people who've had ground-breaking impact in their chosen sporting field, including: the most decorated Paralympian, the woman who was the number 1 squash player in the world for nine years, and the first figure skater to wear a hijab. You can learn all about fascinating and surprising stories, such as the tennis player who escaped the Nazis, how a man finally beat a horse in a race, and how the FIFA computer game was created.

FAN MAIL--We would love YOUR feedback--Send us a Text MessageA signature can look like safety, right up until the day it becomes worthless ink. We take you back to 1933 Germany to watch a deal get made with Adolf Hitler and then dismantled piece by piece, revealing why legal guarantees cannot protect anyone when an authoritarian regime treats law as theater.We set the context most people miss: German Catholics had lived through decades of hostility stretching back to Bismarck's Kulturkampf, and the chaos of Weimar Germany made the desire for a binding national promise feel urgent. When Hitler needs the Center Party's votes to lock in power, he offers a trade that sounds “practical” on paper: the Reichskonkordat will protect Catholic schools, parishes, and legal standing, and in return the Church steps out of politics. Then the reality hits. Youth groups disappear, priests are surveilled, and the regime's attacks on human dignity keep escalating.From there, we draw a clear modern parallel to the Vatican's agreement with the Chinese Communist government over bishop appointments, renewed through 2028, and Cardinal Joseph Zen's public warnings about the underground Church being left behind. The question underneath both stories is the same: what actually protects the vulnerable when the people in power do not believe truth is real?We end with the turning point in 1937, when Pope Pius XI releases Mit Brennender Sorge, smuggled into Germany and read from pulpits under the Gestapo's nose, calling Catholics to spiritual resistance and naming the poison even when politics refuses to. If you care about religious freedom, church-state relations, and the limits of diplomacy under authoritarianism, this one will stay with you. Key Points from the Episode:• German Catholics shaped by decades of harassment under Kulturkampf • Weimar instability fueling a desire for national legal guarantees • Hitler trading “protection” for the Church's silence in politics • The Reichskonkordat's promises contrasted with immediate Nazi violations • Why agreements fail when leaders reject truth and justice • Parallels to the Vatican's China agreement and Cardinal Joseph Zen's warnings • Mit Brennender Sorge as a shift from diplomacy to defiance • The covert distribution effort and the risk taken by clergy and laity • The persecution that followed, including imprisonment and deaths at Dachau Be sure to check out our show page at TeamMojoAcademy.com, where we have everything we discussed in this podcast as well as other great resources.

Harry Haft was forced to fight in more than 70 death matches inside Nazi concentration camps - not against soldiers but against other prisoners. After the war, Harry carried that violence into America's boxing rings, facing some of the era's top fighters. Through the eyes of his son Alan, this documentary reveals the deeper cost of survival - a legacy shaped by trauma, rage, and the loss of faith that followed him long after the fighting ended.
The notorious Nazi death camp is a powerful memorial to the more than 1 million victims systematically exterminated there during World War II.

The Devil's Castle: Nazi Eugenics, Euthanasia, and How Psychiatry's Troubled History Reverberates Today (Catapult, 2025) delves into the forgotten history of eugenics and links it to present-day psychiatry to explain how we as a culture continue to get mind care so wrong. In The Devil's Castle, Susanne Paola Antonetta weaves a haunting narrative that confronts the darkest chapters of psychiatric history while offering a bold vision for the future of mental health care. In 1939, the eugenics movement growing throughout the West did its worst in Nazi Germany. Through the Aktion T4 euthanasia program, five asylums and an abandoned jail were transformed into gas chambers. Tens of thousands of lives—predominantly adults with neuropsychiatric conditions—were extinguished in those structures, ultimately paving the way for the horrors of the Holocaust. Interlacing her experiences of psychosis with the complex history of psychiatry, Antonetta sheds light on the intersections of madness and societal perceptions of mental difference. She brings to life the stories of Paul Schreber and Dorothea Buck, two historical figures who act as models for mind care and acceptance. This gripping exploration traverses the spectrum of neurodiversity, from the devastating consequences of dehumanization to the transformative potential of understanding and acceptance. With The Devil's Castle, Antonetta not only unearths the failures of our past, but also envisions a more compassionate, enlightened approach to consciousness and mental health care. This is a story of tragedy, resilience, and hope—a rallying cry for change that dares to challenge the limits of how we define and support the human mind. Susanne Paola Antonetta is the author of The Devil's Castle: Eugenics, Nazi Euthanasia, and How Psychiatry's Troubled History Hurts Us Now. She is also the author of The Terrible Unlikelihood of Our Being Here, Make Me a Mother, Entangled Objects, Body Toxic, A Mind Apart, and four books of poetry. Her awards include a New York Times Notable Book, an American Book Award, an Amazon Best Memoir of the Year award, and others.

Ami is back from two sold-out shows in Israel and weighs in on the Clavicular saga with a take nobody wants to hear: stop shaming him, and think about the audience.Ami Kozak is back from two sold-out shows in Jerusalem and Tel Aviv. Israel is alive, thriving, and inspiring and also, while he was there, so was Clavicular. Now Jewish Twitter is having an emotional crisis about it.Ami's take is pragmatic: he's not endorsing the behavior, the Miami Heil Hitler moment was awful, and the look-maxing lifestyle is not a model for young men. But Clavicular has a massive audience. If a 35-year-old version of him shows up at an anti-Semitism conference in 10 years and credits this trip as the start of his change of heart, the same people shaming him now would give him a standing ovation. So what approach actually moves the needle?He also breaks down why pro-Israel is becoming the new edgy for Gen Z, the difference between an ideological neo-Nazi and a 20-year-old provocateur, and why Yossi Farrow's tefillin-on-everyone strategy is just the Chabad approach at scale. Plus impressions: Jordan Peterson on Trump and Iran, Tucker interviewing Satan, Alex Jones on Clavicular and the Mediterranean frogs, Jake Shields, Yossi Farrow wrapping tefillin on Norman Finkelstein, and Normal Finkelstein — the man who just has regular beliefs.Israel show clips coming soon.

In a shocking exposé, this episode delves into the inner workings of the Democratic Socialists of America (DSA) and their plans to control the country. The speaker reveals the faces behind the movement, including trust fund babies who have never had to work for their wealth, and exposes their disturbing pasts. From the vetting process of Grand Platner, a candidate with a history of domestic violence and a Nazi tattoo, to the DSA's platform, which includes eliminating the US Senate and state-wide elections, this episode is a must-listen for anyone concerned about the future of America. The DSA's plans are nothing short of revolutionary, aiming to replace the president and the Supreme Court with an executive branch and judiciary chosen by Congress. They also want to extend full voting rights to criminal convicts and illegals, and implement universal rent control, which has already led to a housing shortage in New York City. The speaker highlights the hypocrisy of these individuals, who claim to care about the working class but are actually pushing policies that will benefit themselves and their wealthy donors. The episode also explores the backgrounds of key figures in the DSA, including Morris Katz, a 27-year-old trust fund baby who helped recruit Grand Platner and has a history of questionable behavior. Daniel Morath, another key figure, has been accused of sexual misconduct and has a reputation for being the "most hated staffer" in the region. These individuals are using their wealth and influence to push a radical agenda that will control the lives of ordinary Americans. If you're concerned about the future of America and the direction of the Democratic Party, this episode is a must-listen. The speaker exposes the DSA's plans and highlights the hypocrisy of their leaders, who claim to care about the working class but are actually pushing policies that will benefit themselves and their wealthy donors. Listen to this episode to learn more about the DSA's plans and how you can get involved in the fight to protect America's freedom.

Full Transcript Below: You Are My Hiding Place, GodBy Vivian Bricker Bible Reading:“You are my hiding place; you will protect me from trouble and surround me with songs of deliverance” (Psalm 32:7). Corrie Ten Boom was a strong follower of Jesus who lost everything to the Nazis. Her family protected Jews from being taken to Nazi concentration camps by hiding them. However, one day, they were discovered. Corrie, along with her family, was taken to various jails and concentration camps. Corrie’s father died in prison ten days after arriving, while she and her sister, Betsie, were taken to Ravensbrück concentration camp. Betsie died while in Ravensbrück, which severely affected Corrie. The two sisters were extremely close and relied on one another. Corrie was later released from Ravensbrück by happenstance, which was later discovered to be a clerical error. However, we know this was God working in the situation; He was setting Corrie free from the concentration camp that had taken so much from her. Upon returning home, Corrie noted that home didn’t feel like home anymore. She was waiting for Betsie or her father to show up, but they never did. For many of us who have lost loved ones, we know what this feels like. They have passed on, and we won’t see them again until Heaven. Throughout Corrie’s time living under the Nazi regime, she never lost faith in Jesus. She knew Christ was with her. Even today, He is still right beside us as we face our own battles. Corrie’s book detailing her time under Nazi rule is called “The Hiding Place.” This was connected to how they would hide Jews in a special room in their house, which doubled as their watch shop. While this room kept the Jews safe, it was also God who was protecting them. God is our figurative and literal hiding place. We might not see it at present; however, when the time comes, we will see His safety, protection, and comfort. Intersecting Faith & Life: The Bible speaks of God as our hiding place: “You are my hiding place; you will protect me from trouble and surround me with songs of deliverance” (Psalm 32:7). David wrote this psalm, knowing that God would protect him from trouble and surround him with deliverance. Just as God did this for David, He will do the same for us. Even when you might think God is far, He is near (Acts 17:27). During dark times, it can feel as though He is nowhere to be seen. These feelings are valid, but we must understand that God is greater than our feelings. We don’t need to base our knowledge of God on what we feel. Our feelings may be inaccurate or misleading. Our feelings might tell us that God will not protect us from harm, trouble, or struggle, but we need to remember that He is our hiding place. He will protect us and surround us with His grace. Think about what you need today and present it to Him (1 Peter 5:7). Do not feel afraid to share your real feelings and the thoughts that are pulling you away from Him. God knows life can get hard, and our faith can waver from time to time. However, He doesn’t want us straying away from Him. He is our hiding place where we can go and find safety, security, and hope. Even if you may feel weak and tired right now, go to Him. God walked Corrie out of Ravensbrück, and He will walk you out of this struggle ahead. I have seen it in my own life, and you probably have already seen it in yours, too. Rely on God’s past faithfulness when it seems like a prayer has not been answered in a long time. He will answer your prayers in time and surround you with songs of deliverance (Zephaniah 3:17). Is God currently your hiding place? Why or why not? How can you build your trust in God today?

Will Donald K. Trump create a singularity of cretinous lies tonight massive enough to swallow the United States, or will this be his taco of all tacos? There's only one way to find out, and that is to listen to David Waldman tomorrow describe the Bluesky posts commenting on those who heard about what Trump said. Don't watch tonight, as you can't get too close… the stupid, they say, it burns. For certain, Trump will not be talking about his federal prosecutor marching on June 6, or the text messages not just covered up, but erased. Greg Dworkin not only hauls in his usual Raft O'Stories™, but talks like a sailor too! A record 58% of battleground voters disapprove of Trump. Dem Haley Stevens is7 points ahead of Dem Abdul El-Sayed in Michigan for Senator. Following the primary, their factions are hopefully to become re-arrayed for the election, or at least hopefully hold each other in higher regard than they would some Gop candidate with the Nazi son-in-law. California's Xavier Becerra is crushing Gop Steve Hilton's gubernatorials. House Gops have pretty much run out of time to pass their reconciliation package. You will not hear the answer to who won the 2020 election in the Senate confirmation hearings. You won't hear the answer to any questions, really. If actions speak louder than words, though, Todd Blanche just might not get the unanimous Gop support he needs to get confirmed. ICE continues to maraud, mauling the rights andbodies of anyone they're unable to get a kill shot on. The Secret Service does not want to be JD Vance's Uber. RIP to local legend Denise Oliver Velez.
Thousands of people have taken to the streets in several Ukrainian cities, after President Zelenksy sacked his popular young defence minister, Mykhailo Fedorov. Also: An official report has concluded that MI5 lied while giving evidence to three courts about a neo-Nazi informer, whose abuse of his partner was uncovered by the BBC. And a lost trove of David Bowie songs is unearthed.
On August 2, 1943, prisoners at the Nazi extermination camp Treblinka, located in occupied Poland, launched an uprising against their captors, during which hundreds successfully escaped while guards killed as many in the process. In this groundbreaking work, Chad S.A. Gibbs draws upon recently discovered sources and novel research methods to fundamentally reassess Jewish resistance at Treblinka—both before and during the revolt. Using the testimonies of revolt survivors, prior escapees, those who passed through the camp, and a handful of bystander witnesses and former SS guards, Gibbs sheds new light on the events of August 2 as well as many prior acts of resistance in Survival at Treblinka: Geography, Gender, and Social Networks in Jewish Resistance (U Wisconsin Press, 2026). Critical to these new interpretations of the revolt are the actions of women prisoners, who here assume a central place in this story for the first time.
