Noah Rothman is a senior writer at National Review and author of the new book Blood & Progress, which makes the case that left-wing political violence has a long and largely forgotten history in America. He joins Coleman Hughes to argue that the commonly held belief that political violence is largely a right-wing phenomenon is not just inaccurate but actively dangerous. He believes America has forgotten a century's worth of anarchist bombings, Marxist guerrilla movements, and ideologically motivated assassinations. And with the trials of Luigi Mangione and the alleged Charlie Kirk killer now underway, the pattern is repeating in real time. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

We break down what happened, review the deranged responses from both the right and centrist Democrats, the place of Israel/Palestine in these contests (and the ludicrous if expected charges of anti-semitism that followed), and consider what it might mean for the left in the age of Trump—however much longer that lasts—and more.

Could America ever vote itself out of freedom?Michael Malice (“YOUR WELCOME”) welcomes senior writer at National Review and author of Blood and Progress, Noah Rothman, for a fiery discussion on political violence, justice, and the unintended consequences of modern politics. Together, they debate one of the most uncomfortable questions in a democracy: when does political violence stop being unthinkable and start being viewed as justified? Michael and Noah debate the growing acceptance of political violence, why history remembers some extremists and ignores others, and how revenge can quickly spiral beyond anyone's control. They also examine whether the Constitution can still self-correct and why good political intentions so often lead to disastrous consequences.Be sure to grab a copy of Noah's brand-new book, Blood and Progress: A Century of Left-Wing Violence in America, available everywhere. https://x.com/NoahCRothmanhttps://www.nationalreview.com/author/noah-rothman/https://www.amazon.com/Blood-Progress-Century-Left-Wing-Violence/dp/1546011412Pre-Order UNWANTED – A TALE OF THE OLD WEST AND THE NEW WAVE: https://UnwantedBook.comOrder THE WHITE PILL: http://whitepillbook.com/Order THE ANARCHIST HANDBOOK: https://www.amzn.com/B095DVF8FJOrder THE NEW RIGHT: https://amzn.to/2IFFCCuOrder DEAR READER: https://t.co/vZfTVkK6qf?amp=1https://twitter.com/michaelmalicehttps://instagram.com/michaelmalicehttps://malice.locals.comhttps://youtube.com/michaelmaliceofficialIntro song: "Out of Reach" by Legendary House Cats https://thelegendaryhousecats.bandcamp.com/The newest episode of "YOUR WELCOME" releases on iTunes and YouTube every Wednesday!

On this episode of The Karol Markowicz Show, Karol sits down with National Review senior writer Noah Rothman to discuss his new book, Blood and Progress: A Century of Left-Wing Violence in America. Together, they explore the often-overlooked history of political violence on the American left, from anarchist bombings and Occupy Wall Street to the 2020 riots and recent attacks targeting law enforcement. Noah explains why he believes America has failed to confront the full scope of political extremism, how media narratives shape public perception of violence, and why understanding both left-wing and right-wing radicalization is essential to preserving the country's civic fabric. The conversation also covers the Luigi Mangione case, the rise of populism, Donald Trump's lasting political influence, AI versus the commercial space race, and Noah's surprising life-improvement recommendation.

On Tuesday's Mark Levin Show, in a Senate hearing, Secretary of State Marco Rubio testified on Iran negotiations, emphasizing condition-based sanctions relief and the critical need to address Iran's ballistic missile capabilities. Any sanctions relief for Iran would fund the regime's army, IRGC, and security forces rather than the suffering people. We need to arm the Iranian people to enable an uprising. This terrorist regime seeks to destroy America and Israel while the current efforts fail to apply maximum pressure. We should not negotiate with or cut deals with terrorists because it emboldens enemies. The isolationists and the Woke Reich give aid and comfort to our adversaries. There is a growing domestic Marxist-Islamist threat, funded by Qatar, China, and others, that is organizing, building enclaves, and infiltrating politics. In breaking news, there are reports of multiple explosions in Bahrain, hours after Iran claimed precise missile strikes on U.S. bases in Kuwait and the IRGC warned of further seismic responses to American actions. Iran appears emboldened rather than defeated by reading U.S. restraint as weakness. The IRGC needs to be pounded, and the Iranian people need to be armed. Later, the core defect of Marxism is its fundamental misstatement and misapplication of human nature. Rather than being an economic philosophy aimed at equality or fairness, it uses economics and redistribution as camouflage to advance totalitarianism, seeking to control individuals, thought processes, and ultimately create a society of compliant robots. This ideology, like Islam, employs appeal to compassion and justice as propaganda while intending the opposite. It cannot work because human nature, created by God, cannot be intentionally destroyed and rejiggered by man. The practical goal is demographic transformation to build dependent, like-minded societies that can be dominated, eventually extending this control nationally. Finally, Noah Rothman calls in to discuss his book, Blood and Progress: A Century of Left-Wing Violence in America. https://www.amazon.com/Blood-Progress-Century-Left-Wing-Violence/dp/1546011412/ref=sr_1_1?crid Learn more about your ad choices.

Bridget sits down with Noah Rothman, senior editor at National Review and author of Blood And Progress: A Century of Left-Wing Violence in America, to trace the long, suppressed history of radical left-wing political violence in the United States — from the anarchist bombings of the 1920s to the Weather Underground to the assassination of Charlie Kirk. Noah argues that this history isn't obscure, it's deliberately buried, and that the same patterns driving today's wave of violence have shown up in 50-year cycles throughout American history. They also get into why 9/11 inadvertently put the brakes on a bombing campaign that might otherwise still be ongoing — and what that tells us about how close to the edge we actually are.Buy Blood And Progress here: https://bit.ly/4eKXuee#LeftWingViolence #PoliticalViolence #walkinswelcome #BridgetPhetasyTopics covered: left-wing political violence, Blood in Progress book, Weather Underground, Charlie Kirk assassination, Luigi Mangione copycat violence, anarchist terrorism, radical left history, revolutionary socialism, media suppression of left-wing violence, 9/11 and domestic terrorism
