The tragedy on the Guadalupe River in Texas is as shocking and sad as it gets. A flash flood took the lives of at least 100 people, including many children, at a popular Christian summer camp held in the floodplain. Climate alarmists and ghoulish politicians were quick to blame both climate change and budget and staffing cuts by President Trump for the loss of life.The truth is, the federal agency responsible for issuing flash flood warnings did its job and confirmed it had sufficient staffing. Flash floods are a regular occurrence in the Texas Hill Country, with that very same floodplain experiencing a similar tragedy in the 1980s. The attempts to politicize this tragedy and use it to advance the climate agenda are disgusting and wrong.On episode #164 of The Climate Realism Show, we bring you the facts.The Heartland Institute's Anthony Watts, Sterling Burnett, Linnea Lueken, and Jim Lakely will also cover some of the Crazy Climate News of the Week with special guests Myron Ebell and Steve Milloy.What changes are afoot in climate and energy policy thanks to the Big Beautiful Bill signed into law by President Trump on July 4? Why are climate alarmists so obsessed (and wrong) about bees?

In this episode of Reaganism, host Roger Zakheim sits down with Dr. Daniel Samet who is the George P. Shultz Fellow at the Ronald Reagan Institute, and the author of the new book, U.S. Defense Policy toward Israel: A Cold War History. The conversation explores the core thesis of Dr. Samet's book, which directly challenges the claims made in John Mearsheimer and Stephen Walt's The Israel Lobby. Rather than attributing U.S. Middle East policy to undue influence by a pro-Israel lobby, Dr. Samet argues that American defense policy toward Israel has been driven primarily by national interest and strategic considerations—particularly during the Cold War. Drawing from extensive archival research, Dr. Samet finds that lobbying efforts appear rarely in the historical record. Instead, U.S. presidents from Truman through Reagan made decisions based on national security, geopolitical strategy, and the containment of the Soviet Union.

Send us a textशेर्पा तिच्यावर प्रचंड चिडला. आणि मला तुझ्यासोबत मरायचं नाहीये असं म्हणाला. कारण परिस्थिती खूप बिकट होती. शिखरावर भयानक वेगाने वारे वाहत होते. लवकरच वादळ येणार होतं. आणि सगळ्यात मोठं संकट म्हणजे प्राणवायू संपत होता. पण तिची जिद्द बघून तो शेर्पाही नतमस्तक झाला. तो म्हणाला, “अरुणिमा आता मी मेलो तरीही चालेल पण तुला एकटं सोडणार नाही! तुला जिवंत परत खाली घेऊन जाईन!”

In this urgent and hard-hitting talk, Nobel Laureate Al Gore thoroughly dismantles the fossil fuel industry's narrative of "climate realism," contrasting their misleading claims with the remarkable advancements in renewable energy. Drawing on data showing clear signs of progress across the world, Gore makes a powerful case that we already have everything needed to solve the climate crisis — and reminds us of what the most valuable renewable resource actually is.Want to help shape TED's shows going forward?

Two of the most prestigious physicists in America have written a new paper explaining why greenhouse gases (GHG) produced by human activity — namely carbon dioxide — cannot cause dangerous warming on the planet. Based on their findings, Dr. Will Happer and Dr. Richard Lindzen urge Congress to repeal all Net Zero subsidies, all laws requiring GHG emission reductions, and all restrictions on fossil fuel development and infrastructure.Our special guest this week is Dr. Will Happer, who will break down how he and Dr. Lindzen reached this conclusion — and why continuing to push Net Zero without scientific justification is a recipe for economic disaster.On Episode #163 of The Climate Realism Show, Dr. Happer joins The Heartland Institute's Anthony Watts, Sterling Burnett, Linnea Lueken, and Jim Lakely to also cover the Crazy Climate News of the Week.

To gain access to the most comprehensive library of historical research on the tripartite state, subscribe to American Exception on Patreon. Former CIA officer and bestselling author Barry Eisler joins us to discuss his new novel, The System. Here is what I wrote about the book: The System depicts a fictionalized version of the late US Empire—an economic and military juggernaut now in terminal decline as the regime and its institutions buckle under the weight of their own corrupt and corrupting inertia. With compelling prose, Eisler has written a deep political thriller in which the characters exist in shades of gray. They all must accommodate various governmental and private sector interests in such a way as to become complicit in a system so illegitimate that its true dimensions cannot be candidly discussed or explained in “mainstream” settings. Let us hope that entertaining fiction like this can help snap Americans out of their red/blue partisan trances and unite them against their real enemy—the oligarchic regime itself.

The corporate climate-alarmist media is already turning up the heat—on your TV, not outside—by hyping a summer warm spell as a “heat dome” threatening “dangerous heat and humidity” across much of America next week. Yes, it's going to be hot. It's summer. But the data tell a different story: there's no long-term trend showing an increase in the number or intensity of heat waves. And despite what they claim, carbon dioxide emissions don't drive heat waves. That's not to say human activity isn't warming the planet—but not in the way they're shouting from the rooftops. We'll lay it all out.In episode 162 of The Climate Realism Show, we'll give you the facts you need to counter the inevitable media panic surrounding next week's forecast.

Join us as we dive into the world of military movies, exploring how films like "The Green Berets," "Officer and a Gentleman," and "Top Gun" have shaped perceptions of the military experience. We discuss the realism in movies such as "Saving Private Ryan" and "Zero Dark Thirty," and how they impact those both inside and outside the armed forces. Whether it's the stringent realism or the fictional portrayals, these films continue to influence and inspire individuals considering military service, resonating with veterans and civilians alike. In this episode, we riff on our favorite military films, analyze their authenticity, and share personal stories of how movies guided us into our military paths. From nostalgic favorites to the latest blockbusters, see which films stand up to scrutiny and which ones miss the mark. Hear our take on why accurate military representation in cinema matters, both for the armed forces' image and potential recruits.

Journey into the gritty, unfiltered reality of modern combat as we dive deep into A24's “Warfare,” the latest harrowing war film from Alex Garland and Ray Mendoza. In this discussion, we unpack the film's raw authenticity, emotional impact, and unique production—from its absence of a traditional soundtrack to the real-life experiences that inspired it.

When we celebrate the New Year in 2025, we are also marking a quarter century into the new millennium. We often think it's going terribly, but is it really? How has the past quarter-century set us up for the next 75 years? In THE BRIGHT SIDE: How Optimists Change the World, and How You Can Be One (on sale January 7th) Dr. Sumit Paul-Choudhury—former editor-in-chief of The New Scientist—provides an impassioned defense of optimism as a catalyst for change and declares it a moral imperative. He can help put the past 25 years in perspective as we look toward the future. Per Sumit, submitting to fear is easy. Optimism, though, in the face of the unknown—a willingness to accept and confront uncertainty—is the definition of true moral courage. Realism, for all the good press it receives, often leads to passivity and surrender. (See below signature for other topics). This thought-provoking deep-dive into the roots and implications of optimism drops Jan 7th, after the New Year and before the inauguration—a perfect time to measure our reserves of optimism and look back on all that we have accomplished. In THE BRIGHT SIDE¸ Sumit offers a corrective to the tidal wave of pessimism that regularly rises up to engulf us all. (See below for other topic ideas).
