US Ambassador to Israel Mike Huckabee announced on Monday that he'll sit down with Tucker Carlson for an interview in Jerusalem on Wednesday, aiming to counter what he calls misinformation about the region. The Media Line reports Huckabee's pushback stems from Carlson's recent sharp criticisms of Israel and Christian Zionists, whom Carlson labeled in an October 2025 interview as "the people I despise most in the world," though he later softened those remarks. This comes amid ongoing backlash, including Stop Antisemitism naming Carlson their 2025 "Antisemite of the Year" for invoking stereotypes about Jewish influence in US politics.On his Tucker Carlson Network, Carlson released a clip just a day ago discussing Donald Trump and Vladimir Putin's relationship, arguing Putin respects Trump and wants peace, while blasting Ukraine's Zelenskyy as a failure who's stolen billions in Western aid and sold NATO weapons to extremists. The full conversation touches on NATO's role, Europe's self-destruction through immigration, and the need for Russia as an ally against China.Separately, an Israeli Christian leader invited Carlson to visit their thriving community firsthand, but The New York Sun notes he has ignored the offer amid his portrayals of Israel as oppressive. Carlson also recently interviewed Texas congressional candidate Ryan Zink, a January 6 defendant, highlighting his ongoing platform for far-right voices like Nick Fuentes, whose October appearance split MAGA circles, as detailed in Chicago Magazine.These moves underscore Carlson's expanding influence through his network, fueling debates on his role in shifting conservative media toward isolationism and criticism of US foreign aid, while drawing rebukes from pro-Israel figures and warnings from investors like Ray Dalio on broader economic risks he discusses.Thanks for listening to the Tucker Carlson News Tracker podcast—please subscribe for more updates.

Jonathan Leaf is a playwright, screenwriter, author and journalist, who's won a slew of awards, has been compared to Saul Bellow for his “literacy and seriousness,” has written a half-dozen books, and also written for The New Yorker, The New York Post, The New York Daily News, The American, National Review, The New Partisan, The New York Press, The Weekly Standard and The New York Sun.His latest book, The Primate Myth, upends the common knowledge that humans are a subspecies of ape. Primatologists Jane Goodall and Frans de Waal were completely wrong. If anything, we are a subspecies of dog. Modern technology proves it, and, by giving us an accurate portrait of human nature, explains our penchant for sports, fashion, war, altruism, financial bubbles, suicide and homosexuality, among many other things.

Dean Karayanis, New York Sun columnist, host of the History Author Show, and former member of Rush Limbaugh's highly overrated staff, sits in for Derek. Mondays are becoming a regular thing! Topics include highlighting the success of Angel Studios, which is out with the enjoyable “Solo Mio” starring Kevin James and will have “Young Washington” this summer. Plus, a discussion of how to look and presidents, some anecdotes, and warnings about “celebrity historians” who shade the facts. Marco Rubio tells NATO allies what they fear to hear. “Irish Twitter” gets angry at Dean for pointing out the aid and comfort so many in their country gave Nazi Germany and Hamas as they rushed to tout Seamus Culleton as an innocent Irish victim of “fascist” America, only to learn he fled his country on drug charges and abandoned his two beautiful little girls before marrying a U.S. citizen last year in hopes of avoiding deportation for overstaying his visa by 16 years. “In the future, everybody will be Hitler for 15 minutes,” with apologies to Andy Warhol, as the Democrats slowly move on from Trump being Hitler to the next Republican, as they have done since FDR likened his GOP opponent to the Fuhrer while World War II was still raging. The show closes with a word from the first president ever captured in audio, Benjamín Harrison, and another clip from the archives: President William McKinley.

Dean Karayanis, New York Sun columnist and former member of Rush Limbaugh's highly overrated staff, sits in for Derek on Monday. Topics include the Super Bowl's cultural impact, the Bad Bunny halftime show watched on mute, DOW 50,000, TrumpRX, justice for Benghazi, the HBO documentary that tries to make Mel Brooks a victim, and how Democrats are seizing on President Trump blundering by sharing a video he didn't watch all the way through, resulting in a second or two of an October "Lion King" parody of the Obamas slipping through. Republicans are running for the tall grass in the vain hope that it'll save them.

Today I sit down with investigative reporter Benjamin Ryan, who was the only journalist present for the entirety of the historic Variant v. Einhorn trial — the first detransition malpractice lawsuit in the world to reach a jury verdict. Ben has been covering pediatric gender medicine for three years for outlets including the New York Times, NBC News, the New York Sun, and the Free Press, and he brings an extraordinary level of detail to this conversation.We dive into the case of Fox Variant, a young woman diagnosed with autism who underwent a double mastectomy at age 16 after her psychologist, Kenneth Einhorn, wrote a referral letter riddled with errors and omissions — including listing body dysmorphic disorder instead of gender dysphoria. We discuss how the jury found Einhorn 70% responsible and plastic surgeon Dr. Chin 30% responsible for a $2 million award, the devastating testimony from Fox's mother about being coerced with suicide threats, and the critical communication failures between the psychologist and surgeon. We also explore what this verdict means for the nearly 30 other detransition lawsuits currently pending, why WPATH's standards of care were largely sidelined in the trial, and the broader implications for the field of pediatric gender medicine. I also share my own perspective as a therapist who worked for a group practice later acquired by the same company that employed Einhorn.Benjamin Ryan is an independent reporter who has been covering pediatric gender medicine for the past three years, including on his Substack: benryan.substack.com. He writes for publications such as The New York Times, NBC News and The New York Sun and covered the detransitioner trial for The Free Press.

Todays Biography Flash on Sam Bankman-Fried, the crypto king turned prison provocateur whos somehow still stirring the pot from behind bars.In the past few days, disgraced FTX founder Sam Bankman-Fried lit up X with fresh Trump fandom, posting Friday that realdonaldtrump is right on crypto, according to Cointelegraph reports. He called Trumps arrest of Venezuelan leader Nicolas Maduro smart, gutsy, and pro-democracy, while slamming Joe Biden for bungling crypto and alienating world leaders hed met. This comes hot on the heels of ex Alameda CEO Caroline Ellisons release from federal custody after just 440 days for her FTX fraud role, per Business Insider and Cointelegraph. Bankman-Fried, serving 25 years in a Los Angeles federal pen after his 2023 conviction, is appealing that sentence in the Second Circuit Court, with no ruling yet.Speculation swirls hes gunning for a Trump pardon traders on Polymarket peg the odds at 17 percent pre-2027, Cointelegraph notes, especially after his February 2025 New York Sun chat and March Tucker Carlson video call that landed him in solitary for dodging prison media rules, as Fortune detailed. No public appearances or business moves popped up recently hes reportedly advising fellow inmates on legal woes, Fortune added late last year but these Trump tweets could signal a bigger biographical pivot, maybe rehabbing his image post-collapse.No major headlines in the last 24 hours, but this pro-Trump pivot amid Ellisons freedom feels like vintage SBF chaos calculated or desperate, you decide.Thanks for tuning in, listeners subscribe now to never miss an update on Sam Bankman-Fried, and search Biography Flash for more great biographies.

Dean Karayanis, columnist for the New York Sun and former Rush Limbaugh staffer, sits in for Derek the day after another shooting that could have been avoided in Minnesota: Alex Pretti. Plus, why the aspirational vision of the future in Star Trek matters to the culture, the hypocrisy of Bill Clinton and Barack Obama on deaths at the hands of law enforcement, Shakespeare claimed to be a black woman by a UK feminist, and more.

In Part 2 of Cattitude's special two-part series on the Cats of New York City, host Michelle Fern welcomes Peggy Gavan and Daniel Rimada, co-founders of Cats About Town Tours—the city's first walking tours dedicated to feline history, lore, and legendary local kitties. Discover how their tours weave “mini history lessons” with unforgettable cat stories across Brooklyn Heights, the Lower East Side, and the Financial District—featuring iconic felines like Jerry Fox (the blind cat who helped save Brooklyn Borough Hall), Nicodemus (a star of the first national cat show at Madison Square Garden), and Mutilator (the famous newspaper cat of The New York Sun). Then the conversation turns to the beloved—and sometimes controversial—bodega cats: what they are, why they matter, the myths people get wrong, and how a community-driven movement may help improve standards of care (and even influence legislation). If you love cats, city history, or both, this episode is a purr-fect NYC adventure—no subway fare required.EPISODE NOTES: Cats About Town: NYC's Secret Feline HistoryBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/cattitude-the-1-cat-podcast--6666768/support.

In this episode of The Karol Markowicz Show, Karol Markowicz sits down with journalist and lifelong Brooklynite Harry Siegel for a wide-ranging conversation about media, politics, and generational influence. The discussion opens with their shared New York roots and accents before diving into Harry’s upbringing and the lasting impact of his father, Fred Siegel, a prominent figure in New York’s political and academic world. Harry reflects on his early skepticism about following a career in journalism, how his father’s perspective shaped his worldview, and what ultimately drew him into the profession. He shares behind-the-scenes stories from his time at The New York Sun and offers candid insights into the challenges facing journalism in a rapidly changing media environment. The conversation also explores the importance of staying engaged with the real world amid technological disruption, along with thoughtful reflections on parenting, generational knowledge, and preparing the next generation for uncertainty.

Dean Karayanis, New York Sun columnist and former member of Rush Limbaugh's "highly overrated staff," sits in for his final show before Derek returns on Monday, January 5th. Topics include Mayor Mamdani choosing a subway station in New York City that was built by private enterprise to kick of his government-first agenda, the people of Iran striking and protesting against the dictatorship, how the America250 "United States Semisesquicentennial" may evolve into a catcher term, and Judd Apatow reflecting how Hollywood refuses to accept it's failures; it's easier to blame their usual right-wing bogeymen instead. A clip from Bill Murray's critically panned "The Razor's Edge" shows that artists ought to have the freedom to try new things, but respect the audience's verdict. Plus, words from Baroness Margaret Thatcher encouraging us all to reach for our destiny in 2026.

Dean Karayanis, columnist for the New York Sun and former member of Rush Limbaugh's "highly overrated staff," sits in for Derek to close out 2025. Topics include how to move the political needle on the Tim Walz daycare scandal, Democrats in the House minority playing House with a new fake January 6 committee, 70% of people ICE arrests have criminal records, and spending New Year's Eve like the forever young MTV veejay Martha Quinn. Plus, the Pimp of the Year from 1988's "I'm Gonna Git You, Sucka," captures the way the world views America as a hooker that better have all his money.

Dean Karayanis, New York Sun columnist and former Rush Limbaugh staffer, sits in for Derek. Topics include Canada realizing it needs America more than America needs it, Obama doing nothing to save Kenya from Starvation, the drunk who robbed (and returned) two mandolins from a New Jersey music store, Paul Feig still refusing to take the L on Ghostbusters 2016, and why the world isn't the America's pimp.

Dean Karayanis, columnist for the New York Sun and former member of Rush Limbaugh's "highly overrated staff," sits in for Derek as the ghost week of 2025 draws to a close. Topics include how the Karl Marx's childish notion about "from each according to his abilities to each according to his needs" may work in science fiction like Star Trek, but it fails in the real world as soon as you need somebody to work in the sewer like Ed Norton. Also, Tom Homan keeps the focus on the illegal aliens who are harmed by failures to enforce our borders, even as leftists pretend that turning a blind-eye to lawbreaking is compassionate.

Dean Karayanis — New York Sun columnist, host of the History Author Show, and former Rush Limbaugh staffer — brings the Yuletide cheer for Derek. A story in Politico alleging that the "How the far right stole Christmas" prompts a discussion of the birth of Jesus Christ being turned into a generic, secular holiday. Plus, what happened to the little girl who wrote letter that led to the most reprinted editorial in the English language, 1897's "Yes, Virginia, There is a Santa Claus," in the New York Sun. The stories of "It's a Wonderful Life," "A Charlie Brown Christmas," and of Luxembourg's "American St. Nick" from a tradition begun by GI's in the middle of World War 2. Dean also notes that Christmas marked the 101st birthday of Rod Serling, who's enduring gift is The Twilight Zone's "Night of the Meek," starring Art Carney as a Skid Row Santa Claus.

As the year comes to a close, Aaron returns to a childhood memory sparked by The Polar Express—a quiet library, falling snow, and a sound he still can't explain. What begins as a story about believing in Santa becomes something larger: a reflection on why belief itself is real, necessary, and enduring. Through a timeless response to an 8-year-old's question published in The New York Sun, this episode explores why the most important things in life may exist beyond what we can see.

Dean Karayanis, of the New York Sun and the Rush Limbaugh Show, sits in for Derek. Topics include the fatal flaw in President Trump's messaging about "affordability," the historical bunk in Bill O'Reilly's "Killing Patton," the effort to find out if President Jefferson really fathered children by Sally Hemmings -- and wisdom for today's media figures from Agnes Moorehead, the great actress who was born 125 years ago this month.

New York Sun columnist Dean Karayanis welcomes back his long-time teammate on Rush Limbaugh's highly overrated staff, George “Koko” Prayias. George urges Trump World to focus on the economy, because people aren't feeling it — and the president's style is to say everything is great. George also shares a story from his days producing The Drudge Report about meeting Jesse Jackson and uses it to cap a discussion on the hatred that's being aimed at the right, but also the infiltration of conservative media by conmen (and women) who are only out to capture your clicks. Katherine “Katie” Couric pushes and prods John Fetterman to denounce Charlie Kirk, but he'll have none of it. Plus, J.D. Vance starts doing the sort of teaching about how Covid-era spending, supercharged by Joe Biden, led to inflation — and that it can't be cured overnight.

Dean Karayanis, New York Sun columnist and former Rush Limbaugh staffer, fills in for Derek. Topics include playing "Who's your daddy?" with Nancy Pelosi (ew), Hakeem Jeffries doing his best impression of an old housecat, and John Stewart rages at Republicans for thinking they own the flag, patriotism, and Christianity while being blind to what Democrats have done to cement that impression in the public mind.

Dean Karayanis, New York Sun columnist and Koko Jr. on the Rush Limbaugh Show, sits in for Derek. In response to a listener e-mail, we take a look back at President Obama's plans to "transition" people away from private insurance to illustrate that Obamacare is working exactly as designed to get the government's hands on your health. Plus, Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent schools MSNBC on the non-bailout of Argentina, headlines of the day, and June Cleaver speaking Jive!

Dean Karayanis, New York Sun columnist and former Rush Limbaugh staffer, sits in for Derek. Topics include Scott Bessant and George Stephanopoulos sparring over the filibuster, Senator Moreno calling out Senator Schumer on Obamacare subsidies for millionaires, and GOP messaging going forward. Plus, the take of the ghost toilet, and how Communist China uses counterfeit products to hurt productivity — illustrated by the 1991 film, “The Inner Circle,” on Joseph Stalin's projectionist. The baseball great Darryl Strawberry's pardon by President Trump rounds out the show.

The fever swamps of the alt-right have crept upstream. Fringe figures are making their way onto increasingly mainstream platforms, spreading ideological contagion to impressionable young audiences. Having long covered the creeping antisemitism of the Left, the fight now unfolding on the Right is an inspiring and essential one. With his debut WTH appearance, Eli Lake reminds us that this isn't a question of free speech, it's a question of policing one's own coalition with moral clarity. If the Right doesn't get this right, what will 2028 look like for the Republican Party? Eli Lake is a veteran journalist with expertise in foreign affairs and national security who has reported for Bloomberg, The Daily Beast, and Newsweek. He was the senior national security correspondent for the Daily Beast and covered national security and intelligence for the Washington Times, the New York Sun and UPI. Eli is currently the host of Breaking History, a new history podcast from The Free Press, where he regularly publishes. Read the transcript here.Subscribe to our Substack here.

Dean Karayanis, columnist at the New York Sun and former Rush Limbaugh staffer, sits in for Derek. Topics include the silence over President Trump forcing Hamas to agree to his cease-fire plan with Israel, John Bolton deciding the one way he doesn't want to use military force is to stop drug cartels, pampered Hollywood celebrities raging against leaf blowers, Tim Russ's leftist necromancy in favor of ANTIFA, who's a real populist, John Kasich deciding that prosecuting people who broke the law isn't allowed and forgetting that Democrats waged warfare against their opponents for years — and obscure, entertaining references aplenty!

 In 1835, a New York newspaper convinced the public that intelligent bat-men lived on the moon—and millions believed it. This is the true story of the first viral media hoax in history.

Dean Karayanis of the New York Sun and the Rush Limbaugh Show sits in for Derek. Topics include Israel disproving the notion that killing terrorists "just creates more terrorists" by wiping out the Hamas leadership and the "lazy" Germans turning against Coca-Cola because they don't like the nation that protects them. The partisans who inject race into everything Charlotte murder is suddenly decide race shouldn't be talked about in the Charlotte murder. Plus, CNN reports gossip about a discussion between Secretary of the Treasury Bessent in a "MAGA nightclub" and tries to turn it into a scandal.

After an update from Derek, Dean Karayanis of the New York Sun and Rush Limbaugh Show updates you on the weekend's news.

Together they discuss Senator Tim Kaine's ignorance of the Declaration of Independence and Senator Ted Cruz's defense.

Dean Karayanis of the New York Sun fills in for Derek.

Dean Karayanis of the New York Sun and the Rush Limbaugh Show sits in for Derek as he deals with the prospect of losing is beloved cat, Veruca. On the docket today is a hilarious Vanity Fair story about rich lefties in the Hamptons facing the prospect of having to follow the law on immigration, the strangest text Derek ever sent, Communist Party USA voter and ex-CIA director John Brennan finally facing consequences, and how Popeye's chicken got its name.

Dean Karayanis of the Rush Limbaugh Show and the New York Sun sits in for Derek to groove you into the weekend. A look at the Democrats bungling their response to President Trump's crime initiatives and a New York Daily News hit piece on the legendary Gloria Gaynor for daring to support conservative candidates.

The articles that formed the “Great Moon Hoax” stated that famed astronomer John Herschel had observed animals resembling bison, goats, and even humanoid bat-like creatures on the Moon alongside forests, oceans, pyramids, and ...

The ‘Great Moon Hoax' was published by the New York Sun on 25th August, 1835, claiming over six instalments that renowned English astronomer John Herschel had spotted bat-men, unicorns, and bipedal beavers on the lunar surface.

The mastermind behind the hoax, Richard Adam Locke, later tried to justify his actions by claiming it was a satire meant to expose the ridiculousness of some contemporary scientific theories.

It's Open Line Friday! New York Sun columnist Dean Karayanis talks Russiagate, the death of the media monopoly, and more with his his Rush Limbaugh Show writing partner, George Prayias. Also a veteran of Fox News Channel, George (known to Rush Limbaugh the TV Show viewers as Koko the signing gorilla), was producer of The Drudge Report show. He digs into how Drudge, Rush, and the Internet have changed how information is shared, while making a strong case for the GOP to resist its inclination to let those who perpetrated the Russia Hoax off the hook.

After Kelly's conversation with Lenore Skenazy this past Tuesday, we're going deeper into the moment that changed everything for this mom and sparked a national conversation about how we raise our kids. When Lenore's 9-year-old kept begging for some independence, she finally said yes—letting him ride the New York subway home alone from Bloomingdale's. The op-ed she wrote about it in The New York Sun brought fierce criticism and praise in equal measure, with some calling her brave and others suggesting she should be reported for child abuse. It's a story that gets to the heart of something so many of us wrestle with: How do we help our children develop confidence and self-reliance in a world that feels increasingly dangerous?
