Trump Signs Presidential Order- Countering Domestic Terrorism and Organized Political Violence. The Final Battle with the Left Begins. A presidential order with potential massive impact was recently issued by President Donald Trump, on “Countering Domestic Terrorism and Organized Political Violence.” This Little-Known Trump Order Could Mean Sweeping Terror Designations A presidential order with potential massive impact was recently issued by President Donald Trump, on “Countering Domestic Terrorism and Organized Political Violence.” The order could affect not just gangs or groups like Antifa, which have now been designated as terrorists. This includes all the organizations involved in “acts of political violence and intimidation designed to suppress lawful political activity or obstruct the rule of law.” It also proposes the use of Racketeer Influenced and Corrupt Organizations (RICO) Act charges against the entire network and the potential labeling of any group or individual involved as terrorists. We'll discuss this topic and others, in this episode of Crossroads.

How do you protect and police freedom of speech on campus and in society?Arif Ahmed is a Cambridge Philosopher who is now responsible for enforcing new freedom of speech rules on universities, colleges and students.He took office at a time when there is particular focus on a vexed question: where the boundary should lie between free speech - which should be protected - and speech that threatens, intimidates and leaves people feeling unsafe, which can and should be restricted.He talks to Nick about why he ended up so passionate about this subject, and warns of society falling into an "abyss" of political violence.Producer: Daniel Kraemer Research: Chloe Desave Sound: Ged Sudlow and Fiona Fairmaner Editors: Giles Edwards and Leela Padmanabhan

Government Shenanigans and Political Circus: A Cocktail of ChaosJoin Dan and Corey in a chaotic episode of Libservative, where technical hiccups and hot takes converge. They start with an offbeat intro, navigating through Corey's microphone mishap, before diving into a range of topics, including a botched Israel-Hamas peace deal, Trump's dubious actions with NSPM-7, Pam Bondi's ludicrous Senate Judiciary Committee performance, and Candace Owens' ongoing investigation into Charlie Kirk's death. The duo also touch on the hypothetical silliness of pardoning Ghislaine Maxwell and a surprise about the decline in American political discourse. With quick-witted banter and no-holds-barred humor, they tackle the week's most absurd and controversial issues.00:00 Welcome to Libservative00:34 Technical Difficulties and Introductions01:10 Peace Deal Between Israel and Hamas02:00 Trump's Controversial Memorandum02:36 Pam Bondi's Senate Judiciary Committee Hearing03:21 Candace Owens and Charlie Kirk Controversy04:26 Government Shutdown and Its Implications06:50 Healthcare Debate: ACA and Insurance Companies15:04 Gaza Peace Deal: Phase One19:48 Gaza Peace Deal: Phase Two27:01 ICE and Immigration Policies38:51 NSPM-7: The New COINTELPRO42:42 Introduction to Antifa and Domestic Terrorism43:30 Political Ramifications and Vague Policies44:41 Thought Experiment: Democratic President's Policy Changes46:02 Financial Networks and Political Violence47:55 Freedom Convoy and Authoritarianism51:21 The Ratchet Effect and Political Power56:46 Candace Owens and Conspiracy Theories01:09:25 Pam Bondi's Senate Judiciary Committee Hearing01:25:43 Political Indictments and Oversight Hearings01:26:13 California Fires and Censorship Concerns01:26:35 Embarrassing Senate Judiciary Committee Hearing01:27:38 Juvenile Notes and Canned Responses01:28:40 Performative Politics and Lack of Substance01:34:02 War in Venezuela and Drug Interdiction01:35:04 Detroit Tigers and Hank Williams Jr.01:44:12 Bill Burr and Saudi Comedy Festival01:45:31 Social Media Reactions and Political Violence01:48:43 Flotilla to Israel and Treatment of Activists01:57:29 Trump's Response to Ghislaine Maxwell's Appeal02:00:55 Podcast Wrap-Up and Contact Information

We live in politically tumultuous times. Our country's politically active are being targeted, threatened, and killed, which not only grieves the souls of those around them, but reverses the cause of democracy. But how do we convince our family, our friends, and our society of our perspectives, rather than attempt to extinguish any opposing force? Together, with sharpened arguments and skilled conversation, we must win over hearts rather than threaten heartbeats.LEARN MORE:Website: https://stephenmansfield.tv/Instagram: https://instagram.com/mansfieldwrites/X: https://twitter.com/MansfieldWrites

Did you hear what Vivek Ramaswamy said during an interview?! He said there's no more “owning the libs.” In this economic climate, board op Sam suggests we rent the libs instead. PBS did a survey about America's feelings on getting the country back on track. Nearly a third of Americans feel political violence may be necessary, whereas around 70% disagree. Chris admits he tried to create some of the show using AI, but the experience sucked because AI is still meh and cannot be trusted.

Portland, Oregon, is officially lawless. When you have the cartel coming out and calling for the deaths of ICE agents and getting away with it, justice has vanished. President Trump has the authority to call on the National Guard to address crime in certain circumstances, and Glenn believes that Portland, Oregon, falls under this category. U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services Director Joseph Edlow joins to discuss the rampant immigration fraud occurring in America. Glenn and Stu discuss Democrat Virginia attorney general candidate Jay Jones' horrific leaked text messages that appear to advocate political violence against opponents. Glenn calls out the political radicalization of the Left and warns his audience how not to respond to the violent threats from Democrats. Glenn reacts to a statement from Jordan Peterson's daughter regarding her father's recent health struggles. Glenn and Stu discuss how a Virginia gubernatorial candidate worked at a Saudi Arabia-funded Islamic school after 9/11. Glenn looks into the charges former FBI Director James Comey is now facing. Is this political retribution or justice? Portland State University professor Bruce Gilley joins to discuss how data proves that political violence is a left-wing problem.  Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

3. Treason, Spies, and Political Violence: The Revolution as a Raging Civil War Author: Patrick O'Donnell Book Title: The Indispensables: The Diverse Soldier Mariners Who Shaped the Country, Formed the Navy, and Rowed Washington across the Delaware The Revolutionary War was characterized as a "raging civil war" where loyalists and patriots lived together, leading to intense political violence. Individuals were targeted based on perceived loyalties, a form of "cancel culture." Dr. Nathaniel Bond, a virus specialist, faced death threats and had his house surrounded by a mob after he treated wounded British soldiers following Lexington and Concord, simply following his Hippocratic oath. He was eventually exonerated after demanding a court martial. Internal betrayal was severe, exemplified by Dr. Benjamin Church, a medical doctor and influential leader who appeared to be an ardent patriot. Church, who was deep in debt, was actually General Gage's greatest spy. He sat on all major Massachusetts provincial committees, funneling crucial Patriot intelligence to Gage, informing the British general exactly where munitions were stored. Church communicated in cipher code and was known as a charming gambler and ladies' man who even faked his own involvement in battle by sprinkling blood on his stockings.

The media loves to paint political violence as “right-wing,” but the truth is far more complex. In this episode of The P.A.S. Report, Professor Nick Giordano dismantles the lazy labels used by academics and pundits to smear conservatives and Republicans. He explains why Nazism and white supremacy are statist, collectivist ideologies that have nothing in common with conservatism or Republicanism, exposes how the left inflates political violence statistics to claim the moral high ground, and reveals where the real radicalism is going mainstream, socialism and Marxist thought within the Democratic Party. Episode Highlights The truth about “right-wing violence” and how academics and media distort the numbers. Why Nazism and white supremacy are statist, authoritarian ideologies—not conservative or Republican. How socialism and Marxist ideas have gone mainstream in today's Democratic Party while conservatives reject extremism.

In this explosive episode, we unpack the growing lawlessness and political violence plaguing major U.S. cities. From Chicago's war-zone-like conditions where ICE agents are under attack, to Portland, where Antifa and violent black bloc groups operate unchecked, the episode exposes a pattern of city leadership allegedly holding back law enforcement while chaos erupts. We also explore how transnational gangs and violent criminals are intertwined with local politics, the controversial handling of federal law enforcement, and a perceived two-tier justice system. From sex trafficking rings to violent protests, journalists assaulted while covering the story, and attacks on ICE agents, this episode reveals what some see as a shocking breakdown in public safety—and the consequences for communities and law enforcement nationwide. Listeners will hear firsthand accounts, analysis, and context for why these incidents are happening and what it could mean for law, order, and governance in America.

There is a lot of violence in politics right now. Israel's war on Gaza has resulted in thousands of children and innocent civilians being killed, Russia is continuing to pound Ukraine with impunity, while the United States has experienced the return of political assassinations. The far right is no stranger to actual political violence, but Jacob Abolafia argued in a recent essay in The Point magazine that the left has been guilty of intellectualising violence in ways divorced from real politics. From seeing Hamas' October 7 th attacks as an inevitable and even justified result of Israel's colonial oppression, to celebrating the murder of UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson by Luigi Mangione, and the gleeful reaction of some to the recent assassination of far right activist Charlie Kirk, the left can be seen to tolerate or even endorse political violence by appeals to philosophers like Franz Fanon, without fully appreciating the political consequences of such violence. So, when is political violence justified, if ever? What alternatives are there when democratic politics and non-violent resistance fail? And is the appeal to violence restricting the left's political vision?Jacob Abolafia is a political theorist who writes on the history of political thought and critical theory, and an anti-occupation activist in Israel. He teaches philosophy at Ben-Guirion University of the Negev. He is the author of the book The Prison Before the Panopticon: Incarceration in Ancient and Modern Political Philosophy. His essay Violence and the Left was recently published in The Point magazine.If you enjoyed the episode, please leave us a rating and a review on Apple Podcasts.This podcast is created in partnership with The Philosopher, the UK's longest running public philosophy journalm founded in 1923.

Judge Diane Goodstein's home in South Carolina exploded over the weekend, injuring her husband and son. Investigators say the cause remains under investigation. Goodstein had recently received death threats after blocking the release of voter data to President Donald Trump's Justice Department. The order was later overturned, but hostility toward the judiciary has intensified as political violence rises nationwide.

She has a popular science blog – Biosocial - where she comments on news, scientific findings and literature relevant to her subject – more often than not with an evolutionary informed approach to understanding the subject matter. She has held numerous lectures on the benefits of an evolutionary informed approach to understanding the cross-cultural sex and age differences in anti-social and criminal behavior.  In this episode, we talk about political violence from an evolutionary perspective. We discuss several theories that explain why someone would commit political violence. We talk about the role of political ideology, mental health factors, notoriety and copycat effects through the media. We also talk about female terrorists. Finally, we discuss how people react to political violence.--A HUGE THANK YOU TO MY PATRONS/SUPPORTERS: PER HELGE LARSEN, JERRY MULLER, BERNARDO SEIXAS, ADAM KESSEL, MATTHEW WHITINGBIRD, ARNAUD WOLFF, TIM HOLLOSY, HENRIK AHLENIUS, ROBERT WINDHAGER, RUI INACIO, ZOOP, MARCO NEVES, COLIN HOLBROOK, PHIL KAVANAGH, SAMUEL ANDREEFF, FRANCIS FORDE, TIAGO NUNES, FERGAL CUSSEN, HAL HERZOG, NUNO MACHADO, JONATHAN LEIBRANT, JOÃO LINHARES, STANTON T, SAMUEL CORREA, ERIK HAINES, MARK SMITH, JOÃO EIRA, TOM HUMMEL, SARDUS FRANCE, DAVID SLOAN WILSON, YACILA DEZA-ARAUJO, ROMAIN ROCH, YANICK PUNTER, CHARLOTTE BLEASE, NICOLE BARBARO, ADAM HUNT, PAWEL OSTASZEWSKI, NELLEKE BAK, GUY MADISON, GARY G HELLMANN, SAIMA AFZAL, ADRIAN JAEGGI, PAULO TOLENTINO, JOÃO BARBOSA, JULIAN PRICE, HEDIN BRØNNER, FRANCA BORTOLOTTI, GABRIEL PONS CORTÈS, URSULA LITZCKE, SCOTT, ZACHARY FISH, TIM DUFFY, SUNNY SMITH, JON WISMAN, WILLIAM BUCKNER, LUKE GLOWACKI, GEORGIOS THEOPHANOUS, CHRIS WILLIAMSON, PETER WOLOSZYN, DAVID WILLIAMS, DIOGO COSTA, ALEX CHAU, CORALIE CHEVALLIER, BANGALORE ATHEISTS, LARRY D.

A new NPR/Marist poll reveals a dramatic surge in Americans who believe political violence may be necessary — now at 30%, up 11 points since April 2024. Even more alarming, 28% of Democrats say violence is acceptable, with over 50% of young adults aged 18–29 agreeing. In this episode, we break down the numbers, explore the role of left-wing cities in enabling violent actors like Antifa, and examine recent incidents in Portland where police inaction has emboldened extremists. We also discuss how law enforcement and federal authorities, including Trump's interventions, are responding to restore order. This is a critical conversation about the growing threat of domestic unrest and the consequences of political polarization.

Trump's new national security directive classifies all of the following as indicators of incipient political violence that need to be investigated and disrupted before they come to fruition:• anti-Americanism,• anti-capitalism,• anti-Christianity,• support for the overthrow of the United States Government,• extremism on migration,• extremism on race,• extremism on gender• hostility towards those who hold traditional American views on family,• hostility towards those who hold traditional American views on religion, and• hostility towards those who hold traditional American views on morality.Beyond making the obvious point that this is almost cartoonishly authoritarian, Ben discusses the way this exactly reverses the real relationship between political violence and structural analysis.Follow Ben on Twitter: @BenBurgisFollow GTAA on Twitter: @Gtaa_ShowBecome a GTAA Patron and receive numerous benefits ranging from patron-exclusive postgames every Monday night to our undying love and gratitude for helping us keep this thing going:patreon.com/benburgisRead the weekly philosophy Substack:benburgis.substack.comVisit benburgis.com

In this episode, Lisa speaks with former Navy SEAL and FBI agent Jonathan T. Gilliam about the alarming rise in politically motivated violence across the U.S., including recent attacks on churches and conservatives. Gilliam draws parallels to foreign terrorist movements, warns of leftist ideological grooming, and highlights the involvement of veterans and transgender individuals in recent incidents. He calls for stronger community security, comprehensive investigations into radical networks, and the designation of groups like Antifa as terrorist organizations to restore law and order and protect American institutions.

Charlie Kirk's assassination. The United Healthcare CEO's murder. Several recent high-profile killings seem to have political motivations. What's driving this — and what can we do about it?

Independent investigative journalism, broadcasting, trouble-making and muckraking with Brad Friedman of BradBlog.com

Trump issued an executive order last week saying he was directing the federal government to “a national strategy to investigate and disrupt networks, entities, and organizations that foment political violence ..." He and his administration have maintained that political violence and domestic terrorism in the U.S. comes from a vast network left and progressive non-profits, donors, foundations, etc. Furthermore, they are mobilizing the federal government to crack down on this "vast network." This is despite the fact that most political violence with fatalities in the U.S. comes from people identified as "right" or "far right." In fact, studies show over 75% of political violence is committed by right wingers. (A Dept. of Justice (DOJ) study showed the prevalence of political violence on the far right, and the Trump administration took down the study from DOJ's website for stating this very fact.) Notable examples include the 2015 mass shooting at a black church in Charleston, SC, the 2018 mass shooting at the Tree of Life synagogue, the storming and riot of the U.S. Capitol on Jan 6th, 2021 and, of course, the Oklahoma City bombing in 1995--the deadliest act of domestic terrorism in the United States taking 168 lives. In our latest, we talk about how the violence isn't a both sides issue, but instead one of ruling class repression. We discuss history, current events and lots of facts and studies. We discuss how political violence carried out against leftists, progressives or liberals is a reaction to equality and justice done in the interests of the ruling class (whether they want it or not is irrelevant).We're living in harrowing times and being as informed and educated as possible is more important now than ever. ------------------Outro- "Green and Red Blues" by Moody

From Apple News In Conversation: Earlier this month, conservative activist Charlie Kirk was fatally shot during an event at Utah Valley University. The public response has amplified political divisions, leaving many people feeling anxious about the state of the country. Sean Westwood, director of Dartmouth’s Polarization Research Lab, explains that while a few voices are stoking tensions, most Americans reject violence and want calmer politics. Westwood spoke with Apple News In Conversation host Shumita Basu about what the data reveals about polarization and political violence in the U.S. — and what it might take to turn the temperature down.

Original Air Date: 11/15/2022 Today, we take a look at our extremely steady history of political violence from the Revolution, through the Civil War, Reconstruction and Jim Crow, into the Civil Rights era, the Militia Movement and domestic terrorism, and now to our current once-again-radicalized, right-wing movement willing to use and tacitly condone violence as a political tactic.

A shooting occurred at an ICE facility in Dallas that left multiple people injured and potentially killed, as well as the shooter, who appeared to have taken his own life. While more details of the shooting aren't known, Glenn lays out what we do know: The world has gone mad. Glenn goes through some of the recent radical leftists advocating for political violence. Jimmy Kimmel and his show, as much as he tries to convince you, are not a free-speech issue. Glenn previews another clip of his interview with British comedian Katie Hopkins, who shares how she was forced to lose her children and her home due to the British government targeting her for her speech. Glenn discusses how America is entering a Bermuda Triangle of political violence, speech control, and uneven justice. Glenn warns that if we don't escape this triangle soon, America will fall. Rep. Chip Roy (R-Texas) joins to discuss what we know about the shooting at an ICE facility in Dallas and how America needs to fix its violence issue. Turning Point Faith Co-Chair and pastor of Charlie Kirk Rob McCoy joins to discuss how South Korea arrested a pastor in what is being called a "targeted arrest" against Christians.  Learn more about your ad choices.

What's causing the rise in political violence in America? Can we overcome it? And if not, what's in store for our democracy? Dr. Lilly Mason, a professor of political science at Johnny Hopkins and expert on political violence, joins the show to give context to this moment — and offer some hope for what comes next. She talks to Tommy about what Charlie Kirk's assassination means in our deeply polarized political climate, President Trump's crackdown on late-night comedians and left-wing organizations, and why Americans — on both sides of the aisle — are increasingly struggling to recognize the humanity in their neighbors.For a closed-captioned version of this episode, click here.
