Helping everyday people tell the stories of what's happening in the US right now

Is the BBC shifting right to please Reform voters? Leaked minutes from a top-level BBC editorial meeting reveal plans to reshape story selection and tone – not just in news, but even in drama – to improve the Corporation's image among Reform UK supporters. But instead of chasing Farage's fans, should the BBC hold Reform to account more rigorously?

Gosh, I miss the old days of CEO greed, when the pay gap between Boss Hog and everyday employees was merely gross.

In this episode, Dr. Robert Malone discusses his unique position in the vaccine discourse, the challenges he has faced, and the controversies surrounding mRNA technology.

If the barrage of MAGA nuttiness and raw meanness is getting you down, ponder this passage from the classic novel, Don Quixote: “It is not possible for the bad or the good to last forever… and since the bad has lasted so long, the good is close at hand.”

Was the populist far right a reaction to neoliberal free market fundamentalism? Or, as historian Quinn Slobodian argues, did such rightwing currents come out of the ideas of neoliberalism itself? Slobodian reflects on neoliberal thinkers' preoccupation with racist and misogynistic ideas of human nature and intelligence, borders and gold — all in service to their war on the left.

How sweet it is to be a corporate criminal these days!

Donald Trump's most resonant political slogan has always been the one he borrowed from Ronald Reagan: “Make America Great Again.” Trump rarely has been pushed to define when exactly he believes America experienced the greatness he promises to recapture. But many of his followers believe that America's golden age — particularly for its working class — was the 1950s. A 2024 PRRI survey found that some 70 percent of Republicans think that America's culture and way of life has changed for the worse since the 1950s. But what is it that Republicans miss about the 1950s? Alan Ehrenhalt, who has been a longtime writer and editor at Governing magazine, in 1995 explored this question in his classic study, The Lost City: Discovering the Forgotten Virtues of Community in the Chicago of the 1950s. Ehrenhalt investigated three communities in Chicago in that era: St. Nicholas of Tolentine, a working-class Catholic parish on the city's Southwest Side; Bronzeville, the heart of Black Chicago in that era of segregation; and Elmhurst, a split-level suburban community eighteen miles west of downtown, which experienced explosive growth in the 1950s. Ehrenhalt found that Chicago's citizens in the 1950s were subjected to what most Americans now would regard as excessively powerful and intrusive authority — including the authority of the political machine during the regime of Mayor Richard Daley, religion, employers, tradition, and the community itself — but that authority enforced an order that made possible a deep sense of community that has largely vanished from American urban life, for which many Americans remain deeply nostalgic.In this podcast discussion, Alan Ehrenhalt discusses that loss of community and the way it has played into American politics, particularly during the Trump era; the individualism of the baby boom and the way that many young people of that era chafed against the restraints of the 1950s; and the cultural matrix that produced the first American pope, Leo XIV, who (as Robert Prevost) grew up in a community similar to St. Nicholas of Tolentine during the 1950s. He analyzes what both the contemporary political left and right miss about that time, but acknowledges the difficulty of recovering communitarian values in the present era. 

Väldigt snart måste Liberalerna presentera en ny partiledare. Och valrörelsen smygstartade med partiledarnas populistiska påhopp i riksdagsdebatten. Lyssna på alla avsnitt i Sveriges Radio Play. Veckans partiledardebatt bjöd på anklagelser om att odla gängkriminalitet och att regeringen tar barndomen från landets barn. Tonläget påminde om det som brukar möta publiken under valrörelser. Vill både regeringen och oppositionen starta valrörelsen i förtid och vem vinner i så fall mest på det?Samtidigt fick Liberalernas avgående partiledare Johan Pehrson en känslomässig avtackning och politiskt laddade presenter av partiledarna i riksdagen. Nu närmar sig en viktig deadline för Liberalerna. En ny partiledare ska utses på en extrastämma 24 juni. Inför valet har partiets Karin Karlsbro öppnat upp för att sitta i regering med Sverigedemokraterna, hon gick därmed emot både sin egen och Liberalernas röda linje. Varför gjorde hon så, vem vill egentligen ha jobbet som ny partiledare och kan Erik Ullenhag bli jokern i leken?Medverkande: Helena Gissén, Radions inrikespolitiska kommentator.

David Ost, professor of politics and Hobart and William Smith, joins Suzi to unpack Poland's June 1 presidential election. The race was tight, but in the end, Karol Nawrocki, the far-right, hardline nationalist with MAGA-style politics and Trump's backing, narrowly defeated Warsaw's liberal mayor Rafał Trzaskowski. After voters rejected Trumpist candidates in recent elections in Canada, Australia and Romania, Polish voters went the other way, swinging back to the hard right just two years after electing liberal leader Donald Tusk. What does this election reveal about the continuing attraction of the authoritarian and nationalist right to working class voters? Ost argues that Tusk in power promised a program of radical changes, but delivered too little, dampening enthusiasm and turnout, echoing the troubles of Biden and Harris in the US. There was also the liberal-left campaign which focused on Nawrocki's negative personal qualities, including criticism of his tough working class background, rather than his reactionary, xenophobic, chauvinist agenda — missteps that fed class resentment and fueled the far right. Populism has shown to have staying power, and center-left governance has failed to offer a durable counter. Is Poland a warning to liberal democrats everywhere? What are the implications for Ukraine, Europe and the globe? Jacobin Radio with Suzi Weissman features conversations with leading thinkers and activists, with a focus on labor, the economy, and protest movements.

In 2022, the Freedom Convoy brought the nation's capital to standstill. In 2025, so-called technocrat Mark Carney and the Liberals triumphed in the federal election. How have populist movements and impulses changed - and in what ways could they shape our politics going forward? To discuss, we're joined by Lawrence?LeDuc, political-science professor at the University of Toronto; Bessma Momani, political-science professor at the University of Waterloo; and Carmen Celestini, full-time lecturer in the Department of Religious Studies at the University of Waterloo.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Ok, let’s have a show of hands: How many of you voted to hand ALL of your most personal data to Trump’s intrusive government?

The Looming Crisis Few Want to Confront Paul Daneshrad, CEO of StarPoint Properties and author of Money and Morons, is sounding the alarm: the United States is barreling toward a sovereign debt reckoning – and real estate professionals are not nearly prepared.   Citing economists Reinhart and Rogoff, along with voices as diverse as Jamie Dimon, Jerome Powell, and Ray Dalio, Daneshrad warns that the U.S. has not only crossed the 100% debt-to-GDP threshold, widely viewed as a critical danger zone, but has kept accelerating. "We're at 120 to 140% on-balance-sheet," he notes. "If you include off-balance-sheet liabilities, we're at 300%." While the exact timing of the crisis is unknowable, Daneshrad argues that its inevitability is not. “It's not a question of if – it's when.”   Politics, Populism, and Normalcy Bias Daneshrad is quick to dismiss the conventional partisan narrative. The deficit is no longer a left-right issue, it's a bipartisan affliction. Both political parties, he argues, are fueling structural imbalances. Worse, the electorate, while voicing concern, refuses to vote for hard choices.   This disconnect is the heart of his book's provocative title: Money and Morons. “86% of Americans say they're worried about the debt,” he says. “But they won't vote for politicians willing to solve it, because that solution involves pain.”   The result is what psychologists call “normalcy bias” – an instinct to ignore looming threats and retreat into the comfort of the familiar.   Fixed-Rate Fortresses: Real Estate's First Line of Defense If the debt crisis triggers hyperinflation and a spike in interest rates, as Daneshrad expects, the implications for real estate will be seismic. His response? Radical preparation.   StarPoint has already begun shifting its portfolio into 20+ year fixed-rate debt and is moving toward 30-year structures. “It's painful. It's more expensive. But if the crisis comes in eight years, and you've got two years left on a 10-year loan, you're vulnerable.”   He emphasizes that this is not a fringe view. “Even Powell, whose mandate doesn't include the deficit, felt compelled to warn the public. That's how serious it is.”   Deleveraging with Purpose Debt levels at StarPoint are also coming down – fast. The firm is targeting 40% leverage, down from a peak of 70%. They currently sit at 54%, and the journey continues.   The rationale is clear: when interest rates jump from 6% to 15%, the re-pricing of real estate will be brutal. “That's trillions in lost value,” says Daneshrad. “You have to de-risk now.”   The Forgotten Asset: Cash Cash, often derided for its lack of yield in boom times, plays a central role in Daneshrad's playbook. “The Rockefellers, Kennedys, Guggenheims – they had cash when it mattered. They bought at two cents on the dollar.”   Berkshire Hathaway's record cash holdings reinforce this strategy. “Buffett sees limited opportunity right now and high risk. That should tell you something.”   Daneshrad recommends targeting cash reserves as a percentage of either AUM or annual free cash flow, steadily building them over time. "Public companies get punished for it. Private firms like ours have more flexibility and we're using it."   Why He's Not Buying (Yet) Despite market dislocation, Daneshrad says StarPoint is mostly sitting on the sidelines. Cap rate spreads don't justify the risk, and few deals offer the deep value he's targeting.   “We're looking for rebound plays where sellers are on their third buyer and need certainty of close. That's where the discounts are. But those opportunities are rare.”   Asked whether the mispricing stems from short-term underwriting or optimism bias, he shrugs. “We've flooded the system with liquidity. Asset prices are artificially propped up.”   Diversification and the Limits of Real Estate Daneshrad is not betting the farm on U.S. real estate. He's pursuing modest geographic diversification abroad and expanding into non-real estate asset classes. “Historically, real estate hedges inflation well but a debt crisis changes everything.”   He's candid about the difficulty: “We're not that smart. Timing a crisis is hard. But we can prepare for one.”   The Aging America Conundrum One of the more nuanced points Daneshrad raises is the intersection of demography and fiscal sustainability. Aging, he agrees, is inevitable. But the care infrastructure it requires is not financially supported. “The trustees for Social Security and Medicare, not politicians, say the funds go bankrupt in under ten years. That's $90 trillion in off-balance-sheet liabilities.” Senior housing? “A great idea if the elderly can pay. But with savings rates at historic lows, I'm not optimistic.”   Market Signals That Matter Daneshrad watches for three early signs of crisis: A gradual rise in interest rates – not driven by Fed hikes but by market demands for higher risk premiums. Breakdown of the flight-to-safety dynamic – if equities fall but bond yields rise, that's a red flag. The ‘bang moment' – as coined by Reinhart and Rogoff, when confidence evaporates overnight. As Hemingway once said about bankruptcy, it happens "gradually, then suddenly."   What He'd Do with $1 Million Today If handed an extra million in cash, Daneshrad says he'd hold 80% in cash and invest the rest. “Protect the capital. Diversify over multiple asset classes. Liquidity is opportunity.”   Final Word Paul Daneshrad's message is sobering but clear: “Protect. Prepare. Don't pretend.” He doesn't claim to predict the future. But if you accept the warnings from the smartest voices in finance and economics, the case for defensive posturing is overwhelming.   And if they're wrong? You lose a few basis points. But if they're right you survive the bang.   *** In this series, I cut through the noise to examine how shifting macroeconomic forces and rising geopolitical risk are reshaping real estate investing.   With insights from economists, academics, and seasoned professionals, this show helps investors respond to market uncertainty with clarity, discipline, and a focus on downside protection.    Subscribe to my free newsletter for timely updates, insights, and tools to help you navigate today's volatile real estate landscape.

The first episode of The Agenda aired in September of 2006. Two years later we were in the midst of the Great Financial Crisis. From there, the Occupy movement put the concept of the 1% and the issue of inequality front-and-centre. In the nearly two decades we've been having conversations about the economy and politics here on The Agenda, have we become a more or less equal society? Have we become a more or less fair society? And how has the anger and fallout from the financial crisis fueled the populism and seismic political shifts we are seeing today?See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

In today's episode, we examine the intensifying public rift between Elon Musk and Donald Trump. The catalyst? Trump's recently proposed “Big Beautiful Bill” which notably removes federal subsidies that have historically benefited Musk's ventures. Elon has not remained silent, and tensions escalated further when he retaliated by implying that Trump is listed among Jeffrey Epstein's known associates, suggesting this as the reason the full client list remains sealed.Major accusation.Is this an authentic ideological clash, or a calculated distraction? What are the political implications, and who truly benefits from this spectacle? Let's dissect the rhetoric, analyze the deeper motives, and apply biblical clarity in the midst of all of the chaos.—https://www.thebrandsunday.com/products/the-bible-study-physical?srsltid=AfmBOopJ1q_VkwFOO-Q2RCLoc1uzsHwAP4yh-_ZFG-r8_S9idICTj6nR

POLAND: VEERS SURPRISE RIGHT POPULISM. GREGORY COPLEY, DEFENSE & FOREIGN AFFAIRS 1920 POLAND

Andrew Copson speaks to journalist and political powerhouse Ian Dunt about the uncomfortable truths of liberalism, the rise of populism, and tensions between freedom to Vs freedom from.  This episode was recorded in January 2024.   What I Believe was the title of two separate essays by the philosopher Bertrand Russell and the philosopher EM Forster in the early 20th century. These two humanists set out their approach to life, their fundamental worldview, in a way that was accessible to all. In this podcast, Chief Executive of Humanists UK, Andrew Copson, speaks to humanists today to understand more about what they believe, to understand more about the values, convictions, and opinions they live by. Humanists UK is the national charity working on behalf of non religious people to advance free thinking and promote a tolerant society.

Populism has taken the reins of the Republican Party and that is a good thing. Decorated military veteran and content machine, Troy Carico, joins the podcast this week to discuss the forthcoming Pax Americana under Emperor Donald John Trump. Drawing from his 22 years of military service and intelligence expertise, Carico champions Trump's unapologetic embrace of realpolitik—a pragmatic, power-driven approach to international relations rooted in the strategies of Machiavelli, Bismarck, and Kissinger. He argues that Trump's America-first bravado has reshaped the global stage, prioritizing national interests through bold diplomacy and military might, rejecting globalist ideals, and emphasizing strength over appeasement in a world of competing powers. While acknowledging criticisms of Trump's approach as isolationist, Carico defends it as a necessary retrenchment, leveraging America's economic and military dominance to secure prosperity and cultural ascendancy. He envisions a “nouveau Pax Americana,” where the U.S. stands as a fearless colossus, balancing fear and respect as Machiavelli advised. Carico's fervent call to action urges patriots to embrace this era of American supremacy, celebrating a leader who wields realpolitik with conviction. His insights offer a provocative perspective on Trump's legacy and America's role in a turbulent world, making this episode a must-listen for those intrigued by geopolitics and national pride.

Discussion Highlights:Global demographic megatrends include aging populations, declining fertility rates, and diverging regional population dynamics.Migration patterns involve both forced displacement from conflict zones such as Ukraine and Palestine and labor migration from the Western Balkans, with climate-related movement remaining unpredictable.Depopulation in the Western Balkans is driven by inaccurate census data, economic factors that incentivize emigration, steadily declining fertility rates, and cultural influences on family size.Many countries in the region face labor shortages as plumbers, electricians, and healthcare workers emigrate, prompting policy responses to attract migrant labor, cover an estimated €600 million integration cost in Croatia, and implement language instruction and integration programs.Populist political discourse often exploits public fears about migration, while political leaders frequently show reluctance to acknowledge domestic labor shortages and plan beyond short electoral cycles.Europe's geopolitical context is shaped by U.S.-China competition, the continuation of the war in Ukraine, and uneven or delayed European responses to crises, such as the conflict in Gaza.The current EU enlargement process is critiqued as overly merit-based, and many argue for the package accession of all Western Balkan states, drawing lessons from Croatia's recent membership and anticipating a changing nature of the future European Union.Bosnia and Herzegovina's post-Dayton governance system succeeded in halting widespread violence but remains hampered by persistent power-sharing gridlock, redundant international structures such as the Office of the High Representative, and ongoing challenges in constitutional and education system reforms.Thirty years after Dayton, instances of inter-ethnic violence have remained low since 1995, but schooling and commemorative practices remain fragmented, and domestic dialogue on wartime accountability has stalled.EU integration offers the potential to replace international oversight with European Union frameworks while addressing governance deficits, pervasive corruption, and the need for electoral reforms.About Alida VračićAlida Vračić is a political scientist and lawyer.

Populism has taken the reins of the Republican Party and that is a good thing. Decorated military veteran and content machine, Troy Carico, joins the podcast this week to discuss the forthcoming Pax Americana under Emperor Donald John Trump. Drawing from his 22 years of military service and intelligence expertise, Carico champions Trump's unapologetic embrace of realpolitik—a pragmatic, power-driven approach to international relations rooted in the strategies of Machiavelli, Bismarck, and Kissinger. He argues that Trump's America-first bravado has reshaped the global stage, prioritizing national interests through bold diplomacy and military might, rejecting globalist ideals, and emphasizing strength over appeasement in a world of competing powers. While acknowledging criticisms of Trump's approach as isolationist, Carico defends it as a necessary retrenchment, leveraging America's economic and military dominance to secure prosperity and cultural ascendancy. He envisions a “nouveau Pax Americana,” where the U.S. stands as a fearless colossus, balancing fear and respect as Machiavelli advised. Carico's fervent call to action urges patriots to embrace this era of American supremacy, celebrating a leader who wields realpolitik with conviction. His insights offer a provocative perspective on Trump's legacy and America's role in a turbulent world, making this episode a must-listen for those intrigued by geopolitics and national pride.

Original Air Date: 12-8-2023 Neoliberalism has created a lot of economic suffering and insecurity in addition to weakened social ties over the past few decades. And now, in what may be the most devastating result of the ideology yet, neoliberalism may be leading much of the world toward fascism bolstered by legitimate grievances about economic precarity which are coopted by the false promises of right-wing populism.

Abundance vs. Populism Polling: Poll: Democratic voters prefer "populism" over "abundance"REALIGNMENT NEWSLETTER: https://therealignment.substack.com/PURCHASE BOOKS AT OUR BOOKSHOP: https://bookshop.org/shop/therealignmentEmail Us: realignmentpod@gmail.comSteve Teles, Johns Hopkins University Professor and Niskanen Center Senior Fellow, returns to The Realignment. Steve and Marshall discuss new polling that that indicates voters, especially Democrats, prepare populist economic messaging to the "bottlenecks"-focused abundance agenda, why abundance and populism are complimentary, not oppositional, the dangers of over-focusing on polls (whether you're pro or anti abundance), and how the abundance agenda could address higher education challenges.

The right-wing routinely demonizes family-friendly policies of liberals as “social engineering.”

Dr. Audrey Truschke and Professor Ivan Kalmar analyze the alarming global surge in Islamophobic violence and discriminatory policies, particularly in Eastern Europe and South Asia.  Our guests explore how economic and political insecurities have fueled dangerous scapegoating of Muslim citizens and refugees, transforming vulnerable religious minorities into targets of state-sanctioned persecution. This thought-provoking episode examines the human cost of populist rhetoric and offers critical insights into one of today's most pressing human rights issues: the systematic marginalization of Muslim communities across national borders. Listen to the conversation on the intersection of religious identity, nationalism, and the global struggle for dignity and belonging.  The conversation is based on their contributions to the book Global Islamophobia and the Rise of Populism published by Oxford University Press in 2024.#Hindutva #GlobalIslamophobia #Populism #IndiaSupport the showSupport the Center for Security, Race and Rights by following us and making a donation: Donate: https://give.rutgersfoundation.org/csrr-support/20046.html Follow us on Twitter: https://twitter.com/rucsrr Follow us on Instagram: https://instagram.com/rutgerscsrr Follow us on Threads: https://threads.com/rutgerscsrr Follow us on Facebook: https://facebook.com/rucsrr Follow us on TikTok: https://tiktok.com/rucsrr Subscribe to our Newsletter: https://csrr.rutgers.edu/newsroom/sign-up-for-newsletter/

My fondest memory of Ronnie Dugger is him in his cluttered cubbyhole of an office, his brow furrowed and his mind whirring as he pounded away on an old Royal typewriter, churning out another punch to the snout of the moneyed and right-wing elites

The most embarrassing thing about the ballyhooed war-on-government-waste, run by Elon “Chainsaw” Musk, is not even that it has generated more waste than it has cleaned up.

There is a species of birds named “superb starlings,” and I propose that we elect one of them to be our next president.

Eleven years have passed since Narendra Modi first took oath as Prime Minister. In episode 1669 of #CutTheClutter Editor-in-Chief Shekhar Gupta analyses the 11 key takeaways from this period. He is joined by Political Editor D.K. Singh to gauge the impact of BJP's reforms, hardening stance on terror, and outreach to minority communities.

Episode 4508: Building The Case For Economic Populism

You hear us chanting our mantra constantly: All politics is local. Local politics are the unsung heroes of grassroots movements, but they often don’t feel as exciting or impactful as the spectacles happening at the national level, so everyday people don’t get involved as much.

Welcome back to Impact Theory with Tom Bilyeu. In this episode, Drew and I take you through a whirlwind week where politics, world affairs, and tech innovation collide. We dissect Biden's shocking cancer diagnosis and what it means for the country, dig into Bernie Sanders' eyebrow-raising admission about the Democratic Party, and go deep on just how broken the government really is—and how (or if) it can ever be fixed. We tackle the big questions: What does it take to create a thriving middle class? Should we trust the government to spend more and do more, or do we need to completely rethink the machine? Are we living through a crisis of vision, where our leaders offer no North Star to inspire the country? And with news breaking on both the NIH's gain-of-function research and China's clampdown on gene editing, are we prepared for the next wave of scientific disruption?

You might be alarmed to learn that a little-known group in America is being treated inhumanely, denied even the most basic human rights.

I am a product of George Washington University Law School, so I feel I have an insider’s right to comment on the super-elite law firms that’ve suddenly been kowtowing to Trump.

In this charged segment, the hosts tackle the consequences of aggressive green energy policies, spotlighting recent blackouts in Spain and Portugal as cautionary tales for America's future. They criticize Democrats for shutting down reliable energy sources without expanding capacity, warning of potential grid collapse. The conversation then shifts to alarming claims of international censorship, including the arrest of Telegram's CEO allegedly for refusing FBI demands to suppress conservative voices ahead of Romania's elections. Tying in revelations from John Solomon about U.S. taxpayer-funded efforts to demonetize conservative media, the hosts argue a coordinated global campaign is underway to suppress dissent, promote left-wing agendas, and erode democratic norms.

Right versus left. Democrat versus Republican. Liberal versus Conservative. These are the terms we are all too familiar with that practically serve to symbolize the political struggle between good and evil, freedom and tyranny, or big and small government. But if the last 50 years of politics have proven anything, it's that these labels mean shockingly little. Whether it's Reagan opening the nation's floodgates via amnesty under a Republican elephant or the supposedly anti-big corporation Democrats mandating an untested vaccine, both ideas functionally operate as little more than two sides of the same coin. The yard sign changes every four years, but the underlying assumptions and commitments to liberal democracy don't.Yet when you trace the intellectual formation of the American conservative identity you find that wasn't always the case. Something happened in the '60s and '70s that broke our connection to our English, Anglo, and Protestant past and made America into the degenerate war hawk it became in the '90s and early 2000s. Committed to a defense of Israel and esoteric readings of the Ancient Greek philosophers, influential academics like Leo Strauss and Harry Jaffa—alongside journalists like Irving Kristol—birthed a powerful new flavor of conservatism that took root in the American consciousness.This supposedly right-wing political thought had little differences with the left in its embrace of liberal democracy and equality, but served its purpose in turning America into a dominant foreign adversary alongside a compelling narrative about its embrace of creedal nationhood and the peoples of the world. But as the downstream effects of decades of universal suffrage and propositional nationhood come home to roost, neoconservatism offers shockingly little substance in the way of resistance or conserving our Christian European heritage. Populism and revolution are on the rise, and the strong gods are coming home.It's time to stop calling ourselves conservatives and falling into the same dialectical trap again and again. We are not neocons and we are not interested in the solutions of Mitt Romney, Ted Cruz, and Mitch McConnell. Like the Founding Fathers who risked it all to forge a new, self-governed future, we also need real and potentially radical solutions to our dilemma. Cutting taxes by 10% and another war in the Middle East isn't going to do it.Tune in now as we discuss Leo Strauss, American conservatism, and the coming right-wing revolution.MINISTRY SPONSORS:Reece Fund.

Time to get back into our regular deep-dives into issues and topics we love

In this dark age of Trumpian rule, is there any glimmer of hope?

Populism seems to be the driving force of the new right's economic philosophy. The new right has said that they want to take on “libertarian” economics and “free market orthodoxy.” Others have said that “libertarian economics is the same thing as conservative economics” (i.e., laissez-faire, low tax, low regulation, etc.). David suggests the need of the hour is not just more precise definitions, but a truly robust understanding of conservative economics -- one that goes where libertarianism didn't, and goes where populism simply can't.

Well, habemus papam—welcome, Pope Leo!
