Political scientist Charles Murray has written many well-known books over the course of his lifetime.Many of his works—including “Losing Ground,” “The Bell Curve,” and “Coming Apart”—have deeply influenced the intellectual discourse and zeitgeist of our times and provoked heated debate about the roots of major social problems in America.His latest book covers a topic that he has never covered deeply before: religion.Murray writes in the foreword of his book “Taking Religion Seriously,” “Millions are like me when it comes to religion: well-educated and successful people for whom religion has been irrelevant. We grew up in secular households or drifted away from the faiths in which we were raised and never looked back. For them, I think I have a story worth telling.”In our conversation, he recounts how he slowly came to question his assumption that there was nothing in religion for him.He began to grapple with questions such as: How did life come to be? Why is there something rather than nothing? What happens to purely secular societies? What happens to art that no longer acknowledges beauty, truth, and the good?He said: “I finished the book by comparing myself to a kid whose nose is pressed against the glass watching a party that's going on inside that he can't join. I have had the good fortune to meet a number of people who have had a very full, rich spiritual experience. ... I look at the kind of people they are, and I say to myself: I want more of that.”Views expressed in this video are opinions of the host and the guest, and do not necessarily reflect the views of The Epoch Times.

Former Special Counsel Jack Smith has agreed to testify before the House Judiciary Committee – but only if the hearing is open to the public. House Chairman Jim Jordan and Senate Judiciary Chair Chuck Grassley want answers for how Smith handled his investigation into President Donald Trump and the 2020  presidential election results, including requesting phone records of almost a dozen Republican Members of Congress. The Sekulow team discusses Smith's upcoming testimony, Deep State corruption under the Biden DOJ, the ACLJ's legal work – and much more.

Ghana's negotiations for a China–Ghana free trade deal have sparked a fierce national debate. Political leaders are hailing it as a breakthrough for exporters, while manufacturers warn of being swamped by cheaper Chinese imports. At the heart of the discussion lies a deeper question: how much power do African countries really have to shape their trade relationships with China? To unpack both the deal and the broader question of “agency” in Africa–China relations, Eric & Cobus speak with Folashadé Soulé of the University of Oxford's Global Economic Governance Program. She explains her new framework on five types of African agency, from presidential to civil society, and how African actors at every level use strategy, negotiation, and intent to influence outcomes with Beijing. ⏱️ CHAPTERS: Introduction The Free Trade Debate in Ghana Non-Tariff Barriers & Export Reality Check Africa's Structural Challenge Introducing Agency in Africa–China Relations Five Typologies of Agency Presidential vs. Executive Agency Bureaucratic Agency Civic & Civil Society Agency The “Agency Turn” Western Narratives & Misconceptions Accountability, Corruption, Intentionality Final Reflections SHOW NOTES: Cambridge University Press: The Study of Agency in Africa–China Relations: The Case for Typologies by Folashadé Soulé (open access) JOIN THE DISCUSSION: X: @ChinaGSProject | @eric_olander |  Facebook: www.facebook.com/ChinaAfricaProject YouTube: www.youtube.com/@ChinaGlobalSouth Now on Bluesky!

In this episode Jeff opens with a live technical hiccup and plays the familiar "Word on Word" segment comparing John 14:6 (“I am the way, the truth, and the life”) with Proverbs 9:10 (“The fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom”), then pivots into a wide-ranging commentary on current events and media narratives. The episode covers breaking headlines and cultural flashpoints: DOJ indictments linking NBA figures to cartels and illegal gambling, the P. Diddy scandal, and observations about the intersection of basketball, hip-hop culture, and political demographics. The host argues these stories feed into engineered social unrest and class/race polarization, and points to inflammatory rhetoric from politicians and activists as evidence of a coordinated push toward chaos. Political topics include clips from CNN and commentary on Democratic figures making extreme remarks, a contentious Maine Senate primary candidate with Nazi tattoos, and fears of escalating civil disorder. The show examines a leaked memo and comments about the National Guard preparing a national response by April 2026, and explores claims about Presidential Emergency Action Documents (PEADs) and alleged wartime powers being activated — including assertions about military arrests, asset seizures, communications blackouts, and tribunals. Internationally, the host plays and analyzes a clip about how Israel controls narratives around the Gaza ceasefire, detailing three propaganda tactics used to justify Israeli actions, media framing that emphasizes Israeli victimhood, and accusations that ceasefires are routinely broken. The segment connects media strategy, influencer platforms, and geopolitical maneuvers, and critiques efforts to nominate political figures for awards amid ongoing conflict. Throughout the episode the host references several guests and sources (CNN guests, Scott Jennings, JMC wartime report, Israeli Knesset speakers) and offers personal takes on how spiritual perspective and study inform interpretation of current events. The show ends with promos for the host's online course modules, a reminder about an upcoming prayer call and Sunday Bible study, and a call to love God, family, and neighbor amid turbulent times.

Last decade, we all recognized that Democrats produced fighters and that Republican corporatists were no match for them. But after today's show, you will learn how we've actually gone backward in the era of Trump and social media. I go through the news of the day, primary elections, and Trump's liberal positions on several new issues and contrast them to Democrat consistency and ferocity in pursuit of their goals. Some of the political tourist influencers on the Right project their own vanity on the Left when they think the Left is in disarray because of divisions. However, Democrat divisions are actually a sign of vibrancy fighting for definitive end goals, while our side is united because there are no core beliefs left on the Right.  Learn more about your ad choices.

Several Senate Republicans have now stood up to Donald Trump by REJECTING his nominee to head up the Office of Special Counsel. This is the second time in recent weeks Senate Republicans have said no to Trump nominees. Moreover, even Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene has broken from Trump over the release of the Epstein files and the need for affordable health care. These are clear and compelling signs that Trump is getting weaker by the day.

VPeter Berkowitz Analyzes Precarious Gaza Ceasefire and Deep Internal Political Tensions in Israel Peter Berkowitz with John Batchelor Peter Berkowitz stated the Gaza ceasefire is precarious and phase one is incomplete until all deceased hostages' remains are returned, aligning with Israeli public and governmental sentiment. Hamas may be stalling negotiations to rearm. Berkowitz noted sharp internal tensions in Israel, driven by opposition to Netanyahu, resentment over judicial reform, and economic exhaustion from military service. He finds it unlikely that the peace plan, which requires Hamas disarmament, will be fully realized.

Simon Constable Reports on Rising Commodity Prices Driven by Data Center Demand and European Political Turmoil Simon Constable with John Batchelor Simon Constable reported significant commodity price increases (copper up 14%, gold up 48%), driven by demand for data centers and AI. He criticized European reluctance to build needed data centers, stressing their necessity for the digital future. Constable noted President Macron fears Marine Le Pen's National Rally due to growing support stemming from concerns over unfettered immigration. He also criticized the UK Labour party's plan to tax professionals like dentists and doctors, predicting they will leave the country.

Rick Fisher Reports on China's Reusable Rocket Deluge and US Moon Race Political Pressures Rick Fisher with John Batchelor Rick Fisher reported that China has 27 reusable space launch vehicle projects underway, predicting a "deluge" of cheap space services to compete with SpaceX. He noted that President Trump is alarmed that China may win the second race to the moon. Trump pressured NASA Administrator Duffy to open the Human Landing System competition to Blue Origin, signaling that politics and winning the race are paramount, regardless of competitor viability. China's first reusable booster test could occur before year-end. 1698

Steve Yates Discusses Australia-US Alliance Strength and Political Turmoil Affecting APEC Summit Steve Yates with John Batchelor Steve Yates confirmed the Trump-Albanese meeting was a net positive, accelerating AUKUS and securing a rare earth deal that addresses supply access. He noted the political turmoil in Beijing, highlighted by uncertainty over Xi Jinping's APEC attendance. This instability is abnormal and reinforces China's unstable political foundation. Yates suggested this instability should push allies to rely more on the first island chain as a reliable balance. 1687

I was talking to The Fifth Column co-host Kmele just as the big NBA gambling/poker scandal broke, and he had questions. So we decided to do a short podcast where Kmele, who's a huge NBA fan, quizzed me about what the hell is going on with the state of the NBA and this persistent sort of scandal sports writ large is facing. Topics include…* Why would anyone place a bet on Terry Rozier?* How much gambling money is in the NBA and NBA media?* Why is LeBron James getting brought up?* Why we think LeBron is probably innocent here* What the hell is Chauncey Billups involved in?* Political component to Trump's FBI going after the NBA? * Does the public care?

A whistleblower inside the Los Angeles Unified School District has come forward with shocking evidence — stacks of left-wing flyers, posters, and propaganda pulled straight from teachers’ lounges across the district. These weren’t lesson plans or student materials… they were political rally cries — “No Kings,” “Workers Unite,” “Protest!” — the kind of radical messaging you’d expect from activist groups, not classrooms. Grant Stinchfield exposes how these angry liberal educators are using taxpayer-funded schools to push their ideology, not teach America’s kids. This is a deep dive into the political indoctrination hiding behind classroom doors — and why parents must take back control of what’s being taught in our schools.

On MSNBC this week, host Joe Scarborough gave a familiar speech about the dangers of Donald Trump wielding government power against his political opponents. With figures like Letitia James, James Comey, and John Bolton finally facing charges, the Left has quickly rediscovered its love for judicial restraint. Scarborough delivered his tirade with nods of approval from other journalists, and he warned that Trump and his administration officials would face a similar set of politically motivated prosecutions once they are out of power — the obvious problem being that the Democrats already brought those charges against Trump and his staff. The Left is attempting to engage in political amnesia in hopes of selling a program of political de-escalation that they have no intention of taking part in.

Welcome to The Times of Israel's Daily Briefing, your 20-minute audio update on what's happening in Israel, the Middle East and the Jewish world. Political reporter Ariela Karmel and religion and archaeology correspondent Rossella Tercatin join host Jessica Steinberg for today's episode. At the start of the Knesset's winter session, the Knesset State Control Committee voted down a proposal to establish a state commission of inquiry into the October 7th, 2023, Hamas-led attack, says Karmel, to the dismay, anger, and tears of the bereaved families present, who expected it could happen now that the 20 living hostages have been released home. The government cabinet voted to rename the war against Hamas as the War of Revival, says Karmel, a proposal floated by Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu for over a year, and with much opposition, given the October 7, 2023, failures that led to the war. A new bill advanced by coalition lawmakers calls for several religious practices to be enshrined in Israel's public spaces, discusses Karmel, including requiring mezuzahs hung in public institutions and allowing public prayer according to the practices of the worshipper, both major battleground issues between secular and religious communities. Tercatin discusses how Israelis have changed religiously and spiritually since October 7 and the ensuing war, and whether those changes are more prevalent among those who were already religiously faithful in their previous lives. She also talks about an unusual archaeological find of an Assyrian inscription near Jerusalem's Temple Mount, with wording that appears to echo an episode described in the Bible. Check out The Times of Israel's ongoing liveblog for more updates.

Political theater meets mind control! Join the self-appointed "prefect of propaganda" as Lionel savages the NYC mayoral race, calling leading candidate Zohran Mamdani a "sock puppet" and a "symptom" of dangerous globalist movements. Expect harsh criticism of policy—like the "stupid free bus business"—and deep dives into why the top 1% shoulder nearly half of NYC's personal income tax. Lionel dissects the role of the Mayor as a chief executive focused on competence and basic services, not sweeping ideological manifestos. This is the only place you'll hear riveting listener calls debating the necessity of "totalitarian" measures to restore public safety, the true identity of George Soros, the role of Project MK Ultra and the Manchurian candidate, and why the colonoscopy is arguably mankind's greatest technological achievement.

Tara breaks down the deadly California semi-truck crash caused by an illegal immigrant driver and explores how state laws under Gavin Newsom allowed this tragedy. She connects the incident to broader political issues, including the federal withholding of funds, media hypocrisy, and systemic bias against Republicans. The episode also covers Eric Trump's recounting of the extreme legal and financial attacks against his family, including $230 million spent defending against politically motivated cases. Tara dissects the ongoing struggle over free speech, legal accountability, and government overreach.

Misinformation is aggressively injected into the information ecosystem, and it is readily consumed and adopted by those who are too busy to fully pay attention, leveraging cognitive bias in a distracted society. This media manipulation is often fueled by financial incentives, rewarding so-called experts who deliver false narratives in entertaining and engaging ways. This weighs the heaviest on society when politicians can't agree on policy because they can't agree on facts. To search for the tools of truth, Harvesting Happiness Podcast Host Lisa Cypers Kamen speaks with Dr. Adam Berinsky, author and the Mitsui Professor of Political Science at MIT. Adam dissects the psychology of misinformation, by examining those who create it with malicious intent, the villains who disseminate it for profit, and the audience most likely to adopt it without question.

Donald Trump's US Attorney for the District of Columbia, Jeanine Pirro, failed to convince three grand juries to bring felony charges against a woman named Sydney Lori Reid for allegedly assaulting a law enforcement officer during immigration enforcement operations. Undeterred by the grand jury's repeated rejection of criminal charges, Pirro directed her prosecutors to charge Ms. Reid with a misdemeanor crime. In a direct repudiation of Pirro's prosecutorial overreach, a jury - sitting as the conscience of the community, - has found Ms. Reid NOT GUILTY! This result reinforces that, whether it's 23 people in a private grand jury room, 12 people in a jury box in a public courtroom, or seven million people in the streets of American protesting against Trump's tyranny, IT IS THE PEOPLE WHO HAVE THE POWER!

Summary In this episode of Armed American Radio, host Mark Walters discusses various topics surrounding gun control, the Second Amendment, and the implications of recent legislation. The conversation touches on the symbolic nature of certain gun control ordinances, the ongoing battle against organizations like Everytown for Gun Safety, and the potential impact of Supreme Court cases on gun rights. Additionally, the discussion includes the intersection of marijuana legislation and gun ownership, cultural perspectives on alcohol, and the political climate that may lead to civil unrest. Takeaways The St. Paul City Council's gun violence prevention ordinance is largely symbolic due to state law restrictions. Everytown for Gun Safety is actively working against gun manufacturers like Glock. The Supreme Court is expected to rule on significant Second Amendment cases soon. Marijuana legislation may affect gun ownership rights for users. Cultural attitudes towards alcohol and marijuana influence discussions on gun ownership.

Free Winterizing Guide We have a free winterizing guide available for instant download. Yours for the asking at https://rvlifestyle.com/winterize-guide Harassment reported by both Canadian and U.S. RVers Today, we're diving into the frosty chill that's settled over the border for RVers like us—Canadian and American alike. The current tensions between Canada are boiling over into the RV Community.  They stem from escalating U.S.-Canada trade and political frictions, amplified by U.S. President Donald Trump's claim that he wants Canada as the 51st state. Then, this summer, new U.S. immigration rules—such as stricter visa requirements and enhanced border scrutiny—have shocked Canadian RVers, leading to a sharp drop in northbound travel, with reservations canceled en masse. Surveys show nearly half of Canadians are now less inclined to visit the U.S. this year, citing not just financial woes but also a growing sense of political alienation from inflammatory rhetoric that paints Canada as an adversary.  Meanwhile, some American RVers who have headed northward with fewer hesitations have been reporting a definite chill that strains the once-seamless camaraderie of the RV community.  We've been hearing about this all summer. But this week, we received two emails that bring this home in the most powerful way, telling us these tensions are being felt by RVers on both sides of the border - by Canadian RVers visiting in the U.S., and American RVers visiting Canada.  These sincere and sad emails are an example that words have consequences and that behind every policy tweet may be a family in a Winnebago wondering if the next campsite will feel like home or a battlefield.  First, this email from Canadian Rvers named Pat, who has been a regular snowbird visitor to the U.S. I would really like it if you started covering how Canadian snowbirds are navigating going south this year. My husband and I have gone South for years but quite truthfully are a little anxious about doing it this year. There are new rules for Canadians who are staying more than 30 days. We are also concerned about the border and going down there. We have heard some horrendous stories and don't know what to think. For example, one woman spoke of a gun being pointed at her as she drove on the road. There was also the case of the border patrol man who followed someone with an Ontario license plate and screamed at them not to come back to the USA. I think about it everyday because we love going south and we love American friends. It will be a long cold winter without them. I would love some input. Then, a day later, we received this email, from a Tracy - U.S. RVer who spent time in Canada: We are on the final weeks of a four month journey from Texas that included travel to the Canadian maritime provinces and Newfoundland. While we met many nice people along the way, we also encountered some angry Canadians who felt that it was their job to make sure we knew how angry they are at the U.S. and those of us live there and they were quick to offer unsolicited opinions. We certainly feel the need for a welcoming community more than ever an...

South Carolina's political establishment just took a hit — and they're furious about it. Lee Bright's upset victory over a well-funded opposition marks a turning point in the fight against corruption, fake conservatives, and corporate payoffs. Tara breaks down how millions in dark money couldn't silence a true constitutional conservative, what this means for the state's Freedom Caucus, and why the old guard in Columbia is panicking.

Tara dives into the mystery of JD Vance — his political evolution, public persona, and the curious remarks of his wife, Usha Vance. Once a “Never Trumper” and outspoken supporter of progressive causes, JD has transformed into one of the fastest, most agile political minds of his generation. Tara breaks down why Usha calls him a “Manchurian candidate,” explores his shifting ideologies, and examines the uncertainty around whose side he's really on — while acknowledging his undeniable talent to command attention and sway conversations.

230-Million dollars.  That's how much Trump wants to be compensated from the Department of Justice for criminally investigating him.  Trump says he's owed damages for the alleged Russian interference investigation in the 2016 Presidential election and for the FBI search of his Mar-a-Lago home related to the handling of classified documents. Trump says whatever money he gets he'll give to charity (Ballroom fund perhaps?)  Whatever number he wants, he will probably get because Trump and those in his administration trying to stay in his good graces will be responsible for approving a payout.John Rothmann, our presidential historian and political analyst is traveling but may be able to join us depending on his Internet coverage.  Get ready to save the world because "It's the Planet, Stupid!" with Belinda Waymouth is on the way.  The Mark Thompson Show 10/22/25Patreon subscribers are the backbone of the show!
