In part one of Red Eye Radio with Gary McNamara and Eric Harley, James Talarico may not think that God is nonbinary anymore, but he's certain that He's in favor of universal health care. The Texas Senate candidate posted a riff on X about how the Bible is the foundation of his progressivism. Supposedly, through happy coincidence, our Savior agrees with Talarico about important planks of the Democratic platform circa 2026. “When Jesus healed the sick,” the Democrat said, “He didn't ask for a deductible. So, when I fight for universal health care, I'm doing it on biblical grounds.” This is the kind of cheap misuse of Scripture that Talarico, a former seminarian, finds irresistible. Also McDonald's pushes AI tools that suggest Big Mac prices are based on ‘customers willingness to pay' / the Iranian regime uses false propaganda to promote a normal and vibrant life in Iran / the "Senator John Kennedy Audio Cut of the Day" / and Geddy Lee's Brad Bradford endorsement for Toronto mayor sparks debate among Rush fans: 'I guess we can no longer call Rush “progressive rock”' For more talk on the issues that matter to you, listen on radio stations across America Monday-Friday 12am-5am CT (1am-6am ET and 10pm-3am PT), download the RED EYE RADIO SHOW app, asking your smart speaker, or listening at RedEyeRadioShow.com.

This week we are joined by María E. Montoya to discuss her new book, A Workplace of Their Own: Rockefeller, Roche, and Labor's Battle Over Industrial Democracy, just published by Oxford University Press. https://global.oup.com/academic/product/a-workplace-of-their-own-9780197551691?cc=us&lang=en&The book opens with a question: who owned the American workplace in early 20th-century? This question was particularly urgent in the period of the Colorado labor wars. Those conflicts featured a series of strikes punctuated by the deadly violence of Ludlow in 1914 and in Columbine in 1927. These two notorious episodes of industrial violence frame the story and demonstrate what was at stake in the Mountainous West. Many different groups-- including laborers, unions, governments, and capitalists – had ideas about how to deal with the dramatic problems raised by industrial labor and who should be making those decisions. Montoya focuses on the strategies of two industrial capitalists – John D. Rockefeller Jr and Josephine Roche – easterners who each controlled mining companies in Colorado. They both attempted to solve the divide between labor and capital and shape industrial democracy but through very different ideas about company towns, arbitration, maternalism, and engagement with unions. In Colorado their ideas confronted the regional specificities of the industry in that place. Dr. Montoya mentioned Robyn Muncy's biography of Josephine Roche, Relentless Reformer: Josephine Roche and Progressivism in Twentieth-Century America (Princeton UP, 2016) https://press.princeton.edu/books/paperback/9780691173528/relentless-reformer Hosted on Acast.

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

'BradCast' 8/5/2026: El-Sayed's Primary Win in MI Will Test Popularity of Progressivism; Guest: John Nichols of 'The Nation' by Progressive Voices

Neil Lanctot examines the May 7, 1915, sinking of the Lusitania by a German submarine, which killed over 100 Americans and sparked a massive crisis for American progressivism. Wilson's advisor, Colonel House, urged severing ties with Germany—a move that typically signaled war—but Wilson resisted, famously declaring that a nation could be "too proud to fight." This restraint infuriated TR, who was simultaneously fighting a high-stakes libel trial against Republican boss William Barnes. TR argued that losing national self-respect was worse than war, though he acknowledged the U.S. was militarily unprepared. Internal administration tension peaked when Secretary of State William Jennings Bryan, a staunch pacifist and ally of Addams, resigned in protest, believing Wilson's diplomatic notes to Germany were too provocative. During this turmoil, the newly married Edith Bolling Wilson began asserting her influence, successfully maneuvering to diminish Colonel House's role by sowing doubt about his loyalty in Wilson's mind.

Welcome to The Daily. Read more about our mission to teach every verse of the bible in what we call Project23. Grab your Hosea Scripture Journal. Our text today is Hosea 9:7-9: The days of punishment have come; the days of recompense have come; Israel shall know it. The prophet is a fool; the man of the spirit is mad, because of your great iniquity and great hatred. The prophet is the watchman of Ephraim with my God; yet a fowler's snare is on all his ways, and hatred in the house of his God.They have deeply corrupted themselves as in the days of Gibeah: he will remember their iniquity; he will punish their sins. — Hosea 9:7-9 There is a moment when someone stops resisting sin—and starts resisting the truth. That's where Israel is. "The prophet is a fool… the man of the spirit is mad." The people weren't just ignoring God's messengers. They were mocking them. God's truth is marked as crazy, extreme, out of touch, and even dangerous. This is precisely where we have come as a nation today. Good has become evil, and evil has become good. Progressivism and relativism have led to tribal truths that now turn The Truth into offensive because individual truth and tribal social truth have taken over. So, instead of adapting their behavior to God's Truth, they attack the messenger who opposed their truth. This is not a new pattern. When truth confronts our comfortable truth, people don't always repent. Sometimes they reframe the truth as the problem. They call conviction "judgment." They call clarity "hate." They call correction "intolerance." And the more a person or nation drifts, the louder that reaction becomes. Hosea says a prophet was supposed to be a "watchman." The watchman sees danger early and warns people before it's too late. But instead of listening to the watchman, they set traps for him and filled the house of God with hostility. This is a radical turn against the watchmen of God. And once that happens, decline accelerates. We need more watchmen today. Teachers and preachers who will teach and preach the truth. But while these courageous men are needed on the other side, we need men and women who are willing to let this truth confront them. So, let me present the question: What do you do when truth confronts you? Do you listen—or do you resist? Do you lean in—or shut it down? Do you receive correction—or question the source? Be careful. If the truth that challenges you begins to feel offensive, the issue may not be the truth. It may be you. Your heart. But here's the hope in this text. God is still heralding truth. There are still watchmen sounding the alarm. God is still speaking through the progressive heresy. There are still heralds of truth. When the truth is mocked, dismissed, and resisted—God keeps speaking. So don't harden your heart. Let truth do its work. Let it cut where it needs to cut. Let it correct what needs to change. The truth is not your enemy. Listen to it and submit to it. DO THIS: The next time you feel defensive about something in God's Word, pause and ask, "What is this revealing in me?" ASK THIS: When truth confronts me, how do I respond? What have I labeled "offensive" that might actually be true? Am I open to correction—or resisting it? PRAY THIS: God, soften my heart toward your truth. Keep me from rejecting what I need to hear, and give me humility to respond when you speak. Amen. PLAY THIS: "Speak, O Lord"

Mark Thornton delays part three of his series on American government in favor of something lighter for the 250th: the story of kudzu, the vine that ate the South. Japanese gardeners brought it to America in 1876 as an ornamental plant. Private interest stayed limited. Then FDR's Soil Conservation Service paid farmers to blanket millions of acres with it—to fix erosion and dust bowl conditions that earlier government policies had helped create. Kudzu grew a foot a day, swallowed trees, houses, and power lines, and became an environmental menace in the Southeast. Government herbicides couldn't kill it. What's actually working is a market solution nobody planned: entrepreneurs who lease goat herds to graze kudzu patches, draining the rootstock over a few years while producing goat meat for the working class.Side B features a Tasty Live interview in which Mark explains all three Austrian business cycle indicators firing simultaneously—the stock bubble, price inflation, and the K-shaped economy—and traces the historical pattern connecting tariffs, strategic stockpiling, and industrial policy to the wars that follow.2026 is the Year of Rothbard—Murray's 100th birthday—and we're celebrating by giving away free copies of The Origins of the Federal Reserve through July 31.

In attacking progressivism in a recent speech, Clarence Thomas has been pilloried in the media and by politicians and academics. However, Thomas was correct: progressivism has brought one disaster after another, all the while empowering the worst of state actors.Original article: https://mises.org/mises-wire/justice-clarence-thomas-right-about-progressivism

The Dean's List with Host Dean Bowen – Progressives like John Dewey criticized the founders for considering principles in the Declaration of Independence as timeless truths. In his view, the ideas in the Declaration were only relevant to their era, not binding on future generations. A few weeks ago, Justice Clarence Thomas was giving a speech at the University of Texas, marking the 250th anniversary of...

1. Allegations of Qatar’s Influence Campaign in the U.S. Qatar spends billions of dollars funding U.S. universities to influence American public opinion and academic culture. Qatar hires Washington, D.C.–based PR and lobbying firms to “whitewash” its image, particularly regarding claims of support for extremist groups. Qatar’s status is the largest foreign funder of U.S. universities, surpassing countries like China, and suggests this funding correlates with campus political activism. Specific universities (e.g., Harvard, MIT, Stanford, Carnegie Mellon) are highlighted as major recipients of foreign funds. Financial relationships will limit criticism of foreign governments, citing an example of a U.S. university campus in Qatar allegedly restricting speech about the Qatari regime. 2. Clarence Thomas’s Judicial Philosophy Thomas is emphasizing: Judicial restraint and discipline Originalism and adherence to the Constitution’s original meaning The belief that rights come from God, not government, grounded in the Declaration of Independence His personal background (raised by his grandfather, strict discipline, plainspoken style) is presented as shaping his judicial approach. Thomas’s views with progressivism, which characterizes asserting that rights derive from government authority rather than natural or divine sources. A Senate hearing anecdote is used to illustrate this ideological divide, portraying progressive views as mainstream within the modern Democratic Party. 3. Free Speech Conflicts on College Campuses At UCLA Law School, protesters disrupted a talk by a Department of Homeland Security lawyer. The disruption is a “heckler’s veto,” preventing speech rather than expressing dissent. Similar past incidents at Stanford Law School are cited to argue that some law students’ conduct is incompatible with professional legal standards. University administrations are failing to protect speech and enforce order during such events. Please Hit Subscribe to this podcast Right Now.
