After denouncing the threatening and vandalism against university officials, businesses, and law enforcement by the protesters, Dr. Abdul mentioned how it's interesting that The Regime goes after one group (that's critical of Israel), yet allowed January 6th insurrectionists to go free. That is a statement of fact. However, and sadly, many establishment Democrats not only cheered on The Trump Regime's corrupt Department of Justice and FBI, but they criticized Dr. Abdul for making a sane and salient point. Which proves yet again how MAGA and Establishment Democrats will join forces to stop progressives, like Dr. Abdul El-Sayed, from winning. Please, subscribe to the podcast, download each episode, and give it a good review if you can!leftoflansing@gmail.comLeft of Lansing is now on YouTube as well!Music provided by Wanderbeats.

Stephanie is again joined by Jody Hamilton. They dissect Trump's repeated declarations of imminent deals with Iran, questioning the credibility of his statements as he seems increasingly detached from reality. The conversation takes a humorous turn as they highlight his bizarre behavior during public appearances, including falling asleep on stage and his drugged demeanor. They also touch on the political implications of Trump's actions, from his perceived threats to Iran to the ongoing cover-up of serious allegations against him. With special guests John Fugelsang and Frangela, they explore the outrageousness of the current political climate, the hypocrisy of Republican narratives, and the need for accountability in the face of such overwhelming chaos.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

In this episode, Stephanie Miller is again joined by Jody Hamilton and they discuss the shocking new revelations surrounding Trump's alleged connections to the Epstein files. They dissect the implications of the recent New York Times bombshell that links Trump to child abuse allegations, highlighting the panic within the White House as officials scramble to protect him rather than the victims. The conversation takes a turn as they explore the absurdity of Trump's actions, including a renewed military aggression against Iran, seemingly timed to distract from the scandal.

After decades of brutal race and gender politics from the Left, conservatives began treating identity itself as toxic. That reaction is understandable after fighting a sinister ideology for years, but ignoring identity is not an option. Human beings need a firm sense of who they are and where they belong. Progressives exploited that impulse in twisted, artificial ways, but the impulse remains natural and healthy. As the United States confronts mass immigration, the question “What is an American?” has become unavoidable on the Right once again. It is a question about identity. For the first time in decades, conservatives must navigate one of the most important parts of human life.

Despite attempts to whitewash its past, progressivism was a poisonous ideology from the beginning. One of its worst legacies is eugenics, which not only created social strife in the US, but also was exported to Germany, where the Nazis embraced it.Original article: https://mises.org/mises-wire/how-american-progressives-influenced-hitler

Chuck Todd opens with the grim news that the Iran conflict is hot again as both sides resume exchanging strikes — and his blunt assessment is that nothing has actually changed since Trump was begging for a deal a month ago. He argues Trump has mismanaged this war from the very beginning with no clear goal, that he and Israel started it with vastly different objectives, and that he stubbornly refuses to accept a deal that looks like the one Obama got even though that's the only realistic off-ramp available. The brutal truth, Chuck says, is that Trump can't airstrike his way to victory, and if he was never willing to commit ground troops, he never should have started the war in the first place — the Iranians now hold more leverage than the United States, and it's entirely Trump's fault that they do. He delivers one of his sharpest character indictments yet, arguing Trump "failed upwards" to the most powerful job on earth and is now half-assing his way through the presidency the same way he half-assed his way through life, while Vance and Rubio scramble to avoid any ownership of the war.With inflation rising for a third straight month, Chuck sees no path for any of this to improve before the midterms. But the heart of the episode is a deep, genuinely illuminating dive into a new Pew survey that Chuck calls possibly the best available tool for understanding the actual American electorate — one that shatters the illusion created by social media. The data reveals nine distinct political archetypes (three on the left, three in the middle, three on the right), that the ideological extremes make up only about 15% of the country and are the whitest segments, and that the loud, combative bases dominating online discourse aren't remotely close to a majority. The middle, he notes, is a full 38% of the electorate, with the center-left as the single largest group; the Reagan Republican coalition is measurably gone, reduced to just 11%; the civil war inside the American left is already underway with skeptical progressives who'll never vote Republican but may simply not vote at all; and the MAGA-religious right remains a fortress of reliable voters, with erosion showing up in exactly one place — younger voters. His takeaway is the one that should reshape how both parties think: the persuadable middle is repulsed most by the far left and far right, the party bases are precisely what cause the parties to struggle electorally, and the opportunity for independents has genuinely never been better — because what happens online simply is not reflective of who actually shows up to vote. Then, cultural critic Chuck Klosterman — author of But What If We're Wrong?, The Nineties, and now a new book simply titled Football — joins the Chuck Toddcast for a fascinating, genre-bending conversation that's part memoir, part sports analysis, and part thought experiment about how a singular American obsession will be remembered centuries from now. Klosterman frames the book as a "living obituary" for football, working from his signature premise that over enough time, almost everything fades until a single simplified narrative is all that survives — and that football, despite being the one true common denominator of the modern American experience (it overtook baseball as the most popular sport by the 1970s, even though people at the time didn't realize it), will almost certainly not remain central to the culture a few decades from now. He and Chuck explore how perception dramatically changes over time , how the internet has fundamentally altered our relationship with time itself, and why arguments against the internet today sound exactly like the arguments people once made against television. Klosterman, who only half-jokingly says his "beat" these days is simply reality, argues that we now consume social media on the working assumption that what we're seeing isn't real — a profound shift in how humans relate to information. The conversation winds through some genuinely original territory about why football works the way it does and what its eventual decline might look like. Klosterman argues football is a fundamentally cerebral sport with intense but widely dispersed moments of action (the Wall Street Journal famously found only 11 minutes of actual action in a three-hour broadcast), that its sheer complexity and total absence of free-flowing movement is exactly why it's never exported well, and that it nearly became a literal embodiment of American exceptionalism. He and Todd dig into whether the NFL can over-expand into a 12-month product, why football is the one American sport that could plausibly survive on pay-per-view, and how the league walks a razor's edge between the maximum physicality fans crave and the safety changes that are slowly, quietly trying to remove hitting from the game — even as the ever-present risk of injury is precisely what raises the stakes and makes it so engaging. There's a wonderful tangent on COVID and 9/11 as the two great timeline-dividing events of the modern era (one slow and shared globally, one sudden and strange), including Chuck's own reflection that the pandemic was unexpectedly a bonding experience with his kids. Klosterman closes by previewing his next book — an alternate history of rock and roll — and delivering a characteristically provocative argument that rock effectively ended as a meaningful art form in the 1990s, that having access to all the music ever recorded has paradoxically led people to listen to the same 600 songs, and that he genuinely regrets ever getting rid of his CD collection, because the day may come when streaming services are broken up and no longer contain all the music in the world.

Stephanie is back from vacation and today she dissects Trump's recent remarks regarding elections and the implications they have for democracy. Trump abruptly ended an interview on on Sunday's Meet The Press after news anchor Kristen Welker questioned him over 'rigged election' claims. She also talked about the upheaval over mail-in voting. Stephanie emphasizes how mail-in ballots have become a crucial tool for ensuring that every vote counts, especially in a state as populous as California. She passionately argues that mail-in voting is the most secure way to vote, debunking myths perpetuated by those who oppose it.

Jody Hamilton takes the reins as Stephanie enjoys a well-deserved break. Joined by the insightful Mike Nellis and the ever-charismatic Charlie Pierce, the gang discusses the chaos around Trump's Great American State Fair, which has become a spectacle as performers drop out faster than you can say "MAGA."

(13) Peter Berkowitz examines two distinct intellectual critiques of the United States as it approaches its 250th anniversary: the postmodern progressives and the post-liberal right. The progressives argue that America is mired in systemic oppression and that its founding principles are the actual cause of its problems. The post-liberal right, conversely, views the nation as decadent and corrupt because it fails to recognize a higher religious authority. Both groups advocate for fundamental changes, with the right-wing critique specifically calling for the government to take a more active role in leading citizens toward virtue and salvation.1671NEW AMSTERDAM

The Washington Roundtable discusses the growing political backlash to artificial intelligence, especially among young Americans, and asks whether Washington, D.C., is capable of regulating A.I. companies. They're joined by Nate Soares, the executive director of the Machine Intelligence Research Institute and co-author of the book “If Anyone Builds It, Everyone Dies.” The group explores what was behind the White House's sudden reversal on an A.I.-safety executive order this week, the outsized influence of venture capitalists in the A.I. industry, and how A.I. may turbocharge the next populist movement in American politics. “My impression is that a lot of the people protesting data centers can sort of tell that this A.I. stuff is taking the world somewhere they don't want,” Soares says. “They can tell that there's this big corporate race that will either kill them or make them a permanent underclass.”See the Washington Roundtable live at 92NY on June 4th.This week's reading: “Can Hakeem Jeffries Lead a Democratic Takeover of the House?,” by Jason Zengerle “Sam Altman Won in Court Against Elon Musk.
