Political violence in America is on the rise. As the Nation has grown more diverse through immigration, militant violence has grown. Attacks have targeted religious and ethnic minorities, law enforcement and have been perpetrated by anti government extremists, religious extremists and lone wolf shooters.

Jemma and Marina are determined to ensure that The Trawl contains as many 'glimmers' as possible so begin the episode with some positive news about butterflies. Also featured is a heart warming story about raving school kids and the Trawl ladies share what each of them have been doing to mitigate how bleak the news is currently. They do go on to discuss why Rory and Alastair acknowledging that a genocide is occurring on their podcast, feels like a 'moment.' There then follows a heartfelt discussion about how they may or may not vote come the next election, and Marina poses a question which gives them both pause for thought. There are, as ever, some brilliant clips including a particularly powerful one of Jewish US actor, Mandy Patinkin. Then, did you know it's forty years since Live Aid? A certain someone has tweeted something so bizarre about it, it gives rise to lots of Trawl gold. Still, perhaps it's not quite as terrible as Tommy Robinson not knowing that migrants can be white, or Farage posing on the white cliffs of somewhere like a page 7 fella. Under rated clips and posts follow and pudding is a poem which Jemma and Marina adore and find very moving. It's by the brilliant Roger McGough.

Tucker Carlson's recent activities have kept him firmly in the media spotlight, sparking debates and drawing strong reactions from political figures, the press, and the public. Over the July Fourth holiday, Carlson announced that he had conducted a rare, exclusive interview with Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian. This interview triggered immediate controversy; Texas Congressman Dan Crenshaw, Senator Ted Cruz, and radio host Mark Levin were among those who sharply criticized Carlson for engaging directly with the leader of a government they characterize as hostile to the United States. In response, Carlson released a video defending his decision, explaining that his aim was to offer direct journalism and candidly engage with world leaders—an approach he compared to past journalistic interviews with controversial global figures.Carlson continues to amplify his profile with the growing success of the Tucker Carlson Network. He recently completed the buyout of his initial investors to assume full ownership, a move promoted as empowering greater editorial independence and creative control. Reports from Spreaker indicate this strategy is part of Carlson's broader ambition to reinvent right-leaning media outside the constraints of cable television, with the network adopting a subscriber-based business model and eschewing traditional advertisers. High-profile interviews remain central to his programming, with recent guests including Robert F. Kennedy Jr., Tulsi Gabbard, and Russell Brand. These conversations frequently explore shifting political dynamics, especially the evolving relationships within and between America's major parties.Live engagements remain a significant part of Carlson's media strategy. His “Tucker Carlson Live Tour” is underway, featuring events in major cities and frequent appearances with controversial public figures such as Russell Brand. These gatherings are marketed as both opportunities for Carlson's audience to engage directly and as platforms for unfiltered commentary on current events.On the political front, Carlson has attracted attention for his ongoing coverage and apparent support for the “Project 2025” conservative policy blueprint, though industry analysts have observed that he does not always name the initiative outright. Outlets like the Brookings Institution have analyzed Project 2025's ambitions and its polarizing influence on U.S. political debate, while Carlson's alignment with such plans has intensified scrutiny over his role in shaping the direction of conservative politics.Recent content and interviews from Carlson have often become lightning rods for criticism. In a recent podcast, he ignited controversy by discussing the potential role of Israeli intelligence in the Jeffrey Epstein case—a claim that quickly reverberated across both traditional and social media and prompted heated reactions regarding the responsibilities and choices of influential media personalities.Carlson's business and media influence also continues to grow. Alongside partner Neil Patel, he is reportedly seeking investment for a new venture designed to blend free short-form content with paid, in-depth programming—a move that could further expand his already substantial digital reach. Reports indicate the Tucker Carlson Network is now profitable, fueled by direct subscriptions and loyal audiences on platforms like X, formerly known as Twitter, where his videos consistently draw among the largest political audiences online.Carlson remains highly active as a speaker at high-profile conservative conferences, most recently appearing at Turning Point USA's 2025 Student Action Summit. His questions and remarks at these events are frequently reported as both challenging and combative, sparking spirited responses from guests and furthering Carlson's reputation as an unpredictable and provocative figure within the movement. At a recent event, for example, Carlson grilled Republican Senator Ted Cruz on Iran policy, with their back-and-forth widely shared on social media.Carlson's influence continues to be a subject of debate in media circles, with some describing him as a political shapeshifter, speculating about his long-term ambitions—including (though not confirmed) rumors about a potential run for public office. His new business ventures, reportedly attracting investment from figures aligned with Rebekah Mercer, underscore his drive to remain a central force in conservative media as he carves out an independent, self-directed path.Thank you for listening to the Tucker Carlson news tracker podcast.

Oklahoma's Superintendent Ryan Walters faces a lawsuit over new, controversially enacted education standards that inject Christian nationalist dogma and conspiracy theories into public school curricula. These changes, lacking transparency, bundle divisive religious content with popular but unfunded mandates, exemplifying a "shit-filled M&M" approach to policy. This blatant religious overreach is part of a broader Christian nationalist strategy to indoctrinate children, undermine secular education, and solidify power by marginalizing other faiths and non-believers. It highlights hypocrisy and poses significant challenges for teachers and the separation of church and state.**News Source:Oklahoma Sued Over School Standards, By Hemant Mehta for The Friendly Atheist, July 2, 2025

Tucker Carlson continues to be highly visible and active across conservative political and media circles. Just this weekend, Carlson was a featured speaker at Turning Point USA's 2025 Student Action Summit in Tampa, Florida, sharing the stage with other prominent conservative figures including Donald Trump Jr. and Laura Ingraham. The event, drawing thousands of young conservatives, put Carlson in front of a live audience as he addressed themes related to youth activism, economic opportunity, and the evolving state of the Republican Party. His appearance was widely discussed across social media and conservative news outlets.On the business front, Carlson has assumed full ownership of the Tucker Carlson Network, having bought out his previous investors. He explained that this move was made to ensure complete editorial independence. The network has already reached profitability, relying on a subscriber model and host-read promotions, with no outside advertisers. His main show continues to air on both his website and on X, formerly known as Twitter, where he consistently garners large audiences and remains one of the most-watched political commentators. Carlson, along with longtime collaborator Neil Patel, is reportedly raising investment for a new media venture that aims to build on this momentum, planning a company that blends free short-form content with paid, longer-form programming. Discussions are underway to expand across multiple platforms, indicating a continued push to monetize and amplify Carlson's substantial digital following.Carlson's recent broadcast content has generated considerable controversy. In a new podcast episode, he challenged the role of Israeli intelligence in the Jeffrey Epstein case, suggesting Epstein operated as a foreign agent tasked with blackmailing U.S. officials. This claim has reverberated through both traditional and social media, drawing sharp criticism from various quarters and further fueling debates around Carlson's influence, editorial choices, and responsibility as a media figure.Another flashpoint has been Carlson's recent interviews with controversial world leaders. His much-publicized sit-down with the Iranian president sparked discussions about media ethics, with other commentators, including those on the PBD Podcast, questioning Carlson's approach to sensitive statements like “Death to America” and the line between providing a platform and amplifying hostile rhetoric. His earlier interview with Vladimir Putin similarly drew global attention, reinforcing his ability to set the agenda for political discourse but also inviting criticism for the perceived normalization of authoritarian viewpoints.On the legal and professional front, Carlson remains engaged in ongoing disputes with Fox News. The standoff centers on the terms of his departure and allegations of contract breaches on both sides, including claims of fraud and the unauthorized disclosure of private communications. Fox News has denied these accusations, and negotiations continue, especially with the expiration of his contract approaching in early 2025. These legal battles remain a backdrop to all of Carlson's public activity, adding intrigue and uncertainty to his next moves.Carlson's alignment with Project 2025, a sweeping conservative policy blueprint, has become another focal point in recent days. Analysts at the Brookings Institution and elsewhere have highlighted the controversial aspects of Project 2025, such as its recommendations on government structure and civil liberties, with Carlson's vocal support sparking renewed debates about his role in shaping the direction of right-wing politics heading into the next election cycle.Interactions with other high-profile personalities have also kept Carlson in the news. His appearances alongside Donald Trump Jr., Megyn Kelly, and Charlie Kirk at recent events underscore his continuing relevance and centrality to conservative media. Meanwhile, his statements and interviews remain a flashpoint for both supporters and detractors, generating significant discussion about his ongoing impact on political discourse, activism, and the future of American media.Thank you for listening to the Tucker Carlson news tracker podcast.

In a candid discussion with Laura, veteran union organizer Alex Han and U.S. Right Wing expert Tarso Ramos explore how workers are uniting against rising authoritarianism.- Watch the episode released on YouTube July 4th 5pm ET; PBS World Channel June 6th, and on over 300 public stations across the country (check your listings, or search here via zipcode) and airing on community radio (check here to see if your station airs the show) & available as a podcast July 9th.Description:  The United States is moving towards authoritarianism, but there is still a window of opportunity to reverse course. What could improve the chances of re-balancing power in the nation, and advancing towards that multiracial democracy that many still dream of? The answer is worker organizing, say Alex Han and Tarso Luís Ramos. "When we look at the history of U-turns from democratic backsliding to democratic revival, the success rate is about 50 percent," says Ramos. "Where there's active, vibrant union participation, the odds go up to about 80 percent." So what's holding Labor back? In early May of 2025, Laura sat down with Ramos and Han at a conference on “Labor in the Age of Authoritarian Politics”, held at the CUNY School of Labor and Urban Studies (SLU) in New York. Ramos is a leading expert on the U.S. Right Wing and former Executive Director of Political Research Associates. He now serves as Senior Advisor to Future Currents, a strategic planning group of social and economic justice leaders. Han has spent most of his adult life in the labor movement, as an organizer and elected president of a large Chicago local. In 2023, he became Executive Director of In These Times, the long-running Chicago-based progressive magazine. In the wake of mass layoffs and the abduction of Kilmar Abrego García, a union member wrongly exported to El Salvador and now held in Tennessee, can enough workers and their allies band together to make a difference?“I think of all of these times where I've shown up at a protest and I know every single person there. When that happens, I know we're not winning today.” - Alex Han“I think the coup that we did not prepare for was the force accelerator that most people experience as DOGE. It's the Musk and Peter Thiel and Marc Andreessen set of actors . . . They're interested in ringing the profits out of the public sector, and they're interested in accelerating the demise of civilian governance altogether.” - Tarso Luís RamosGuests:Alex  Han: Executive Director, In These TimesTarso Luís Ramos: Senior Adviser, Political Research Associates; Senior Fellow, Future Currents SAVE THE DATE July 16th 7pm EDT - Virtual Member Event via Zoom:  Join Laura Flanders in conversation with FAIR Program Director and CounterSpin Host Janine Jackson about the future of public media, Bill Moyers' legacy and more.  Plus, you'll get the chance to ask questions and learn more about upcoming episodes of Laura Flanders & Friends!

Tucker Carlson has been making headlines once again due to a series of high-profile interviews and rapid expansion of his independent media ventures. Over the Independence Day holiday, Carlson announced that he had conducted an exclusive interview with Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian. This move immediately sparked controversy across the political spectrum. Texas Congressman Dan Crenshaw publicly criticized Carlson on social media, with Senator Ted Cruz and radio host Mark Levin joining in, expressing outrage at Carlson for interviewing the leader of a government they consider hostile to the United States. Responding to the criticism, Carlson released a video statement explaining his journalistic rationale: he pointed out that the U.S. and Iran were close to conflict only days before and argued that direct interviews with world leaders—even adversarial ones—are fundamental to journalism, echoing similar actions by past journalists with global figures.Recently, Carlson has also expanded his Tucker Carlson Network, having bought out his previous investors to assume full ownership. According to reporting by Spreaker, this move allows him even greater creative and editorial control and signals the next phase in his attempt to reimagine conservative media outside the traditional cable television landscape. He continues hosting long-form interviews and panel discussions with a variety of guests, including recent segments with figures like Robert F. Kennedy Jr., Tulsi Gabbard, and Russell Brand, focusing on the evolving realignments of American political parties.Simultaneously, Carlson's “Tucker Carlson Live Tour” is moving forward, with planned live events in major cities and special guests such as Russell Brand. The tour is being promoted as both an opportunity for fans to interact and to hear his takes on current events, often featuring fellow controversial personalities. In terms of his content, Carlson has recently been spotlighted for promoting elements of the “Project 2025” conservative policy blueprint, though analysts at Media Matters have noted that he did not always directly refer to the initiative by name in his broadcasts. Carlson's influence and ability to spark national and international conversations remain significant, with his interviews—especially those with adversarial foreign leaders like Vladimir Putin and now President Pezeshkian—reigniting debates about the ethics and purpose of platforming. While supporters defend these interviews as essential journalism, critics argue they risk legitimizing hostile regimes or spreading propaganda. Despite these debates, there have been no major new legal or professional developments involving Carlson since his departure from Fox News. His family also remains in the news, with his son Buckley Carlson recently securing a high-profile role in the Trump administration as deputy press secretary for Senator JD Vance. This appointment has fueled ongoing discussions about nepotism and the tight-knit nature of conservative media and politics. The intersection of Carlson's growing independent platform, his headline-grabbing interviews, and the persistent scrutiny from both supporters and detractors ensures he remains a central figure in national debates about media, politics, and the boundaries of journalistic practice.Thank you for listening to the Tucker Carlson news tracker podcast.

On this episode of Everyday Injustice, host David Greenwald speaks with journalist and legal scholar Jessica Pishko about her acclaimed book The Highest Law in the Land, a deep dive into the growing political and institutional power of elected sheriffs in the United States. Pishko explains how sheriffs—often overlooked in criminal justice reform circles—have quietly become key enforcers of a right-wing populist agenda, rooted in a dangerous blend of electoral legitimacy, constitutional distortion, and unchecked local authority. Pishko, whose book has become increasingly relevant amid the Trump administration's renewed embrace of “tough-on-crime” policies and anti-immigrant enforcement, shares how her reporting evolved over time. Initially approaching the topic as a straightforward study of criminal legal institutions, she soon realized she was documenting something far more urgent: the rise of a far-right movement within law enforcement, powered by sheriffs who see themselves as the ultimate arbiters of the Constitution—especially its Second Amendment—and defenders of an idealized, exclusionary vision of America. The conversation touches on the alarming resurgence of programs like 287(g) task force agreements, the disproportionate policing and incarceration of poor, rural, and white communities, and the disturbing feedback loop between constitutional sheriffs and Trump-era authoritarianism. Greenwald and Pishko also discuss the moral and political implications of an elected law enforcement official wielding both symbolic and literal power, often with little oversight and immense local control. Pishko's thesis is both clear and controversial: the office of sheriff, as it currently exists, should be abolished. Drawing on a mix of legal history, investigative reporting, and on-the-ground interviews, she argues that reform has proven inadequate in the face of a deeply entrenched and ideologically driven system. As she puts it, every attempt at reform is met with a backlash "50 times the ask." This episode offers a chilling but essential look at how rural law enforcement has become a front line in America's ongoing battle over democracy, race, and power.

Encountering ‘Sanseito': Japan's New Right-Wing Populist Party it was somewhat unexpected when Disability News Japan, a foreign resident in Kobe was handed a leaflet by one of Japan's more recently established and increasingly vocal political parties: Sanseito (参政党). Bright orange and emblazoned with the slogan “Don't destroy Japan any further” (これ以上、日本を壊すな), the leaflet's assertive tone immediately stood out. It promotes a platform built around the phrase “Japanese People First” (日本人ファースト), and outlines what the party calls its “three pillars” and “nine policies.” Episode notes: ‘Encountering ‘Sanseito': Japan's New Right-Wing Populist Party': https://barrierfreejapan.com/2025/07/08/encountering-sanseito-japans-new-right-wing-populist-party/ *Correction: ‘Sanseito' was formed in 2020 and won 1 seat in the House of Councillors in 2022 not a ‘couple' as was stated in the podcast.

Tucker Carlson has been particularly active and visible across several media platforms in recent days, reinforcing his status as one of the most influential and polarizing voices in conservative media. Most recently, Carlson conducted a high-profile interview with Iran's President Masoud Pezeshkian, in which Pezeshkian claimed that Israel had tried to assassinate him and discussed Iran's stance on nuclear negotiations with the United States. The interview generated substantial international attention, not only for Pezeshkian's contentious remarks but also for Carlson's continued reach as an independent media figure. This appearance underscores Carlson's willingness to engage directly with controversial world leaders and fuel debate on U.S. foreign policy.Carlson's media ventures continue to expand rapidly. He has now assumed full ownership of the Tucker Carlson Network after buying out his previous investors, a move widely reported by outlets like Axios and Barrett Media. Carlson explained that sole ownership was necessary to maintain complete editorial independence, and the network has quickly reached profitability, bolstered by a subscriber-based model and the absence of outside advertisers, with select host-read promotional spots still included in his content. His primary show, The Tucker Carlson Show, is featured on his personal website tuckercarlson.com as well as on X, formerly known as Twitter, where his high-viewership video segments continue to rank among the most-watched in political media.In addition to the existing network, Carlson and longtime collaborator Neil Patel are reportedly raising significant investment for a new media company that would leverage X as its foundation. According to The Wall Street Journal, this project aims to blend free short-form videos with longer, subscription-based episodes, and discussions to integrate these products across dedicated apps and additional web platforms are underway. This approach is designed to further capitalize on his digital audience, which has grown substantially since his exit from Fox News.Carlson's latest episodes continue to feature controversial and high-profile guests, such as his recent conversation with Robert F. Kennedy Jr., now a cabinet secretary, discussing issues from autism to the Kennedy files. These editorial decisions reinforce his strategy of engaging with figures outside the traditional mainstream, courting both criticism and loyal audiences.A notable development in the broader media landscape has been Carlson's escalating feud with fellow conservative commentator Mark Levin over U.S. policy toward Iran. According to Responsible Statecraft, Carlson criticized Levin for advocating military action and accused him of lobbying for war at the White House. Levin, in turn, responded with accusations of anti-Semitism directed at Trump's envoy Steve Witkoff, prompting Carlson to highlight what he described as the outmoded hawkishness of establishment conservative media. Carlson's post about Levin's position garnered millions of views on social media, illustrating his ongoing dominance and ability to ignite intra-conservative debate.Legal and professional challenges remain a part of Carlson's ongoing story. Negotiations between his legal team and Fox News continue over the terms of his contract and alleged breaches, including accusations that Fox deceived Carlson and disclosed private communications. Fox News has denied these claims, and the impasse has kept the dispute in the public eye, even as Carlson thrives outside the network.Carlson's influence remains a subject of frequent discussion and analysis, with his commentary on issues like immigration, race, and America's foreign wars sparking reactions from both supporters and critics. His recent interactions with public figures—ranging from Donald Trump to controversial global leaders—further cement his place at the center of media and political debate.Thank you for listening to the Tucker Carlson news tracker podcast.

Tucker Carlson has remained a prominent and polarizing media figure, with his recent activities continuing to spark debate about his influence on American political discourse. In the past few days, Carlson has been in the spotlight for his public support and promotion of The Heritage Foundation's Project 2025. In a recent interview posted to his profile on X, formerly known as Twitter, he read an advertisement for Project 2025, signaling a clear alignment with the initiative and its comprehensive conservative policy agenda. This move comes as Project 2025 gains traction within conservative circles, especially as the November elections approach, reflecting Carlson's ongoing commitment to shaping the direction of the American right and influencing policy discussions.Media Matters highlighted how Carlson's promotion of Project 2025 did not explicitly refer to it by name during the segment, but it was apparent to observers familiar with the initiative. This has fueled discussion about the extent of Carlson's influence in advancing policy priorities that aim to overhaul government institutions, reshape the media landscape, and centralize executive power. The Brookings Institution has analyzed Project 2025, noting its controversial recommendations and its potential impact on democratic institutions and public media, echoing themes that often appear in Carlson's commentary.Carlson has also continued to assert his presence on digital platforms, frequently using X and his independent media ventures to bypass traditional networks and directly connect with his audience. While there have been rumors and speculation about a possible return to television, no official announcement of a new TV deal has materialized in the past few days.In terms of public and professional reactions, Carlson's alignment with the goals of Project 2025 has drawn sharp criticism from media watchdogs, policy analysts, and progressive organizations, who warn of the risks posed by proposals that target public broadcasting and seek to diminish media independence. Supporters within the America First movement, however, continue to praise his unapologetic approach and credit him with energizing the conservative base and shaping key policy narratives leading into the election season.There are no major new legal developments involving Carlson reported in the past few days. However, the ongoing debates surrounding his commentary, particularly regarding media reform and claims about institutional bias, continue to keep him at the center of broader discussions about the future of journalism, free speech, and political polarization in the United States.Thanks for listening to the Tucker Carlson News Tracker podcast.

President Donald Trump's decision to support Israel in bombing Iran's nuclear facilities shocked the world. In this episode of New Frontiers, Paul Johnson and columnist Bob Robb break down the legal, political, and moral dimensions of the strike – and its implications for America's role in the Middle East. With thoughtful, candid analysis, they challenge the narratives from both ends of the political spectrum. Topics Discussed in This Video:Trump's Strike on Iran: Did President Trump have the legal authority to bomb Iran? Was it the right call? Paul supports the move for deterring nuclear escalation, while Bob worries it was rushed and politically misframed. They also debate Trump's desire to “celebrate” the attack and how it shaped global perceptions.Why Iran Hates Israel – and Why That Matters: Paul and Bob explore the ideological roots of Iran's hatred toward Israel, examining religious extremism, revolutionary doctrine, and the role of antisemitism in the Islamic regime's worldview.The Right Wing's Stance: “The Jews Are Running America”: Tucker Carlson and Steve Bannon are amplifying dangerous narratives about Jewish influence in America. Paul and Bob confront these claims head-on, exposing their historical roots and how they echo antisemitic propaganda.The Left Wing's Stance: “America and Israel Are the Bad Guys”: Reacting to leftist figures like Zohran Mamdani, the discussion shifts to how some progressives frame the conflict through post-colonial and anti-Western lenses – often justifying Hamas and Iran while vilifying the U.S. and Israel.The Solution to Peace in the Middle East: Can there be peace? Paul and Bob explore the potential of a two-state solution, the need for democratic reforms in Gaza, and the risks of placing ideology over governance. They also criticize Trump's pick of Tulsi Gabbard as DNI and her missteps in handling intelligence.

Mark Zuckerberg's pivot to the right has sent shockwaves through Silicon Valley. From calls for more “masculine energy” in the workplace to his rebrand as an amateur MMA aficionado. Zuck's Trump-loving transformation has raised eyebrows across the tech world. But what does it mean for the future of Meta and the world of social media? Today in The Bunker, Alex von Tunzelmann sits down with Bloomberg's social media correspondent Kurt Wagner to unpack the rebellion brewing inside Meta and why Zuckerberg's new persona has staff looking to unfriend their CEO.  • We are sponsored by Indeed.

Tucker Carlson remains a highly visible and active voice in conservative media, with several significant developments over the past few days. Most recently, Carlson released a new episode of his show featuring an interview with Robert F. Kennedy Jr., now a cabinet secretary, discussing topics such as autism rates and the Kennedy files. This reflects Carlson's ongoing focus on controversial and high-profile guests, as well as his willingness to engage with figures once considered outside the mainstream.Carlson continues to expand his independent media footprint through the Tucker Carlson Network, a venture he now owns outright after buying out previous investors. This change, as reported by Axios and Barrett Media, was made to ensure complete editorial independence, with Carlson stating that true independence requires sole ownership. The network has become profitable faster than expected, allowing this transition and demonstrating the commercial viability of his subscriber-based model. Alongside his direct website, Carlson's media efforts include his high-viewership video show on X (formerly Twitter) and a podcast that has seen top 10 national listenership, marking his success outside traditional cable news outlets.In terms of new ventures, Carlson and longtime business partner Neil Patel are reportedly raising substantial funds for a separate media company that would use X as its foundation. According to The Wall Street Journal, the new company's model would blend free short-form content with longer, subscription-based episodes, further leveraging the social media platform's reach while pursuing recurring revenue from dedicated audiences. Meetings with X have already taken place to discuss integrating these projects with dedicated websites and apps, and expansion onto additional platforms is under consideration.Carlson's recent content has sometimes sparked debate. For example, his interviews with controversial figures, such as Andrew Tate, have brought criticism as well as attention, reinforcing his image as a provocateur unafraid to platform contentious voices. There has also been comedic and critical commentary on his style and substance, exemplified by a recent satirical video imagining a conversation between Carlson and Ted Cruz on esoteric theological topics, highlighting how his influence and methods remain a subject of wider media discussion.Carlson's media independence and his willingness to platform controversial figures continue to elicit both strong support and criticism. Supporters view his ownership structure and refusal to take outside investments as proof of integrity, while critics point to his willingness to host polarizing guests as evidence of dangerous platforming. These dynamics keep Carlson at the center of debates about media influence, the boundaries of acceptable speech, and the evolving landscape of news and opinion.There have been no recent major legal or professional controversies directly involving Carlson reported over the past few days. The focus instead remains on his media ventures and content, with the public and media ecosystem watching closely for how his model might challenge or reshape the industry after his departure from Fox News.Thank you for listening to the Tucker Carlson News Tracker podcast, and don't forget to subscribe.

Tucker Carlson has remained a prominent figure in political media over the past week, largely continuing to shape debates on U.S. foreign policy, conservative politics, and the future of media. On his own media platform, The Tucker Carlson Network, Carlson has released several new podcast episodes, including a recent Q&A segment where he addressed questions on President Biden's health, the societal impact of single fathers, and his views on religious teachings. This platform, available on tuckercarlson.com and major podcast outlets, continues to draw significant attention and provides Carlson direct access to his audience outside the traditional television landscape.One of the more impactful recent developments was Carlson's heated interview with Senator Ted Cruz, which quickly became a flashpoint in the ongoing debate within conservative circles regarding U.S. military involvement abroad. During a sit-down for Carlson's show, he questioned Cruz about America's role in supporting Israeli military strikes against Iran. The exchange turned tense, with Cruz and Carlson sparring over whether the United States was directly at war with Iran. Cruz later criticized Carlson on his own podcast, describing Carlson as an isolationist who had “gone off the rails” on foreign policy, while also urging people to watch the full two-hour interview rather than what he framed as a selectively edited viral clip. This exchange has stirred considerable debate among conservative commentators, highlighting a growing rift between interventionist and non-interventionist perspectives within the Republican Party.On social media, Carlson has weighed in on the complexity of Middle East politics. A recent post on Instagram addressed the divide between supporters of Israel and Iran, emphasizing that the real split involves deeper ideological and geopolitical issues. His commentary continues to draw both strong support and criticism, with reactions reflecting the polarized state of American discourse on foreign policy.In terms of public appearances, Carlson's recent speech at The Heritage Foundation's annual leadership conference was widely discussed, where he reflected on his firing from Fox News two years ago and offered personal insights on political and spiritual shifts in the U.S. He spoke candidly about the importance of skepticism toward government narratives, especially in matters of national security, echoing long-standing themes in his broadcasting career.There have been no reports of new legal actions or major professional controversies involving Carlson in the last few days. However, his ongoing collaboration with figures such as Glenn Greenwald and other conservative commentators remains central to his media ventures, ensuring that his platforms continue to be hubs for debates on government trust, foreign intervention, and populist politics.Meanwhile, the ripple effects of Carlson's confrontational style and willingness to challenge established voices have contributed to ongoing debates about the influence of independent media personalities on public opinion and political strategy. His recent interactions with Ted Cruz, as well as commentary from other public figures, underscore the degree to which Carlson continues to be a lightning rod in both media and politics — celebrated as a truth-teller by supporters and criticized as a provocateur by detractors.Thanks for listening to the Tucker Carlson News Tracker podcast.

Nobody is more excited to defend lying conservative politicians and media figures than the very people to whom they have been lying

Using psychoanalysis I attempt to dissect the root problem and fundamental underlying issue within both philosophies , in hopes of better educating people for the greater good of humanity.

Tucker Carlson has been at the center of several high-profile media and political moments over the past few days. One of the most widely discussed developments was a heated interview between Carlson and Senator Ted Cruz, featured on Carlson's own show. During their exchange, Carlson pressed Cruz on the U.S. role in the ongoing strikes against Iran, challenging the senator to clarify whether the United States was at war with Iran or simply supporting Israeli actions. The spat quickly went viral, especially after Cruz accused Carlson of selectively editing the interview to create a “gotcha” moment and criticized Carlson's foreign policy views as “hardcore isolationist.” Cruz responded at length on his own podcast, “Verdict with Ted Cruz,” where he asserted that while he and Carlson agree on much, Carlson has “gone off the rails” when it comes to foreign policy. This exchange has drawn significant attention, amplifying debates within the conservative movement between interventionist and isolationist factions, with Cruz trying to carve out what he called a “non-interventionist hawk” position.Carlson's recent commentary has also generated international reaction. The Jerusalem Post ran a prominent opinion piece describing him as one of the most influential proponents of “replacement theology”—a term used in theological and political debates about Israel—and labeling him a dangerous voice when it comes to criticism of Israel. The article spotlighted his growing influence among American conservatives and his ability to stir controversy in U.S. foreign policy debates. This follows a pattern of Carlson's recent programming, which frequently addresses topics surrounding Christianity, Israel, and geopolitics.On the business side, Carlson continues to expand his independent media ventures following his exit from Fox News. He remains active with The Tucker Carlson Network, producing frequent shows and interviews available on his own website, tuckercarlson.com, and various podcast platforms. Recent episodes have included Q&A segments with audience members and interviews with guests like journalist Glenn Greenwald and author Vince Everett Ellison. Carlson is positioning his network as a home for what he calls “defending the truth” and offers community memberships for exclusive content.He remains a persistent presence in public discourse. Carlson is often cited in major debates about conservative strategy and the direction of the Republican party, especially as the 2024 presidential election approaches. His remarks and interviews continue to be heavily scrutinized and discussed on social media, and his platforms give him considerable reach even outside traditional television.There has been no major legal news or lawsuits involving Carlson in the past few days, nor has he announced any new partnerships or media deals; the focus remains on his content and the reactions he sparks. His influence remains a recurring topic within both conservative and liberal circles, as political figures and media analysts debate whether Carlson's assertive style and positions are shifting the boundaries of mainstream discourse or simply reflecting deeper divides in American politics.Thank you for listening to the Tucker Carlson News Tracker podcast and don't forget to subscribe.

The Senior Status Federal Judges are striking back and hard against the Trump Administration, issuing some of the most scathing rebukes from the bench and in opinions from their perch as judicial historians as well. Add to this growing list, Judge Young of the Federal Court in Massachusetts, who of the 400+ cases pending against the Trump Administration, just tried the FIRST trial related to Trump's cut of millions of dollars in grant money issued by the National Institute of Health to the Black, Brown and LGBTQ+ communities, and declared that the decision to cut funding is the most “blatant” and “palpably” racist act by a Government he has ever seen in 40 years. Michael Popok reports on the trial and Judge Young's ruling and the role of the Senior Status Federal Judges to protect our democracy.

Right-wing authoritarian and extremist movements are on the march worldwide. This podcast will host some of the globe's leading experts on the radical right to help us understand the development of these extremists. Each episode, hosts and guests bring their specialist insights to break down the critical people, places, organizations, actions, and ideas of the radical right. Produced by the Centre for Analysis of the Radical Right Special Guest: Chelsea Ebin.

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. Quinn Slobodian, Hayek's Bastards: Race, Gold, IQ, and the Capitalism of the Far Right Zone Books, 2025 The post The Neoliberal Roots of Rightwing Populism appeared first on KPFA.

This week on The Wi-Files, we descend into the bizarre universe of Rense.com. Who is Jeffrey Rense? What does he believe? And why is his homepage a revolving door of doom and dollar store propaganda? We explore his history, laugh at the unhinged image carousel, and try to make sense of the nonsense. Spoiler: it's nuts. This content was intended to be viewed. Please check out our YouTube channel for the visual elements. https://www.youtube.com/@lesserknownpeoplepodcast6644 Warning: not for the faint of heart or the easily offended. Topics include: The man behind the madness: Jeffrey Rense Right-wing memes and recycled conspiracies Why the internet is still wild Is this satire? (No — but we are.)

What began as a call for justice has, in many cases, become an engine of conformity. In this searching conversation, Andrew Doyle (author, satirist, and cultural critic) joins Michael Shermer to unpack the trajectory of the woke movement: from its roots in anti-bigotry and awareness to its current entanglement with censorship, identitarian dogma, and ideological rigidity. Drawing on his new book, The End of Woke Doyle traces the intellectual history of contemporary activism, explores the authoritarian impulses emerging on both the left and the right, and makes the case for a return to classical liberalism as a defense against escalating cultural tribalism. Together, Shermer and Doyle explore themes ranging from the legacy of Shakespeare and Milton, the tension between equality and meritocracy, and the broader sociopolitical dynamics shaping public discourse. This episode offers a sharp, historically grounded analysis of one of the defining cultural shifts of our time—and a call to revive liberal principles in the face of rising ideological orthodoxy. Andrew Doyle is a writer, satirist and political commentator. He was formerly a Visiting Research Fellow at Queen's University Belfast, and a lecturer at Oxford University where he completed his doctorate in Renaissance Literature. He is the creator of satirical character Titania McGrath, under whose name he has written two books: Woke: A Guide to Social Justice and My First Little Book of Intersectional Activism, both published by Little, Brown. Titania McGrath has over half a million followers on X. His previous books include Free Speech and Why it Matters and The New Puritans: How the Religion of Social Justice Captured the Western World. His new book is The End of Woke: How the Culture War Went Too Far and What to Expect from the Counter-Revolution.

For decades, the American right has stayed on brand: the economy. Low taxes. Free markets. Deregulation. Those have been the buzzwords for more than half a century. But that doctrine is now being challenged by other conservatives who envision a future in which America's trade deficit is lower, manufacturing returns to the US, and Americans buy more American-made products. Is this future even possible? Economist Oren Cass thinks it is. In today's episode, the founder of the think tank America Compass speaks to Sean about right-wing economic populism. The two discuss a conservative, pro-worker approach to economic policy, Cass's plan to bring manufacturing back to the US, and what types of behavior economic policy should incentivize. Host: Sean Illing (@SeanIlling)Guest: Oren Cass, chief economist and founder of American Compass. Editor of The New Conservatives: Restoring America's Commitment to Family, Community, and Industry.

In May of 2022, Elon Musk announced he would no longer support the Democrat party, citing them as having become the party of “division and hate.” The richest man in the world would go on to purchase Twitter and invest over $290 million into the 2024 election to get Donald Trump and Republican candidates elected. These two acts alone likely changed the course of the Right Wing movement in America forever. After the elections, he then left his businesses to work on cutting wasteful spending in the government via the Department of Government Efficiency, which went on to cost his companies millions in boycotts, arson, and negative press.But that honeymoon period is now over. Fed up with the proposed deficit increases and perceived snubs of Tesla and Starlink in the massive spending bill working its way through Congress, Elon Musk began to lash out at the bill and Republicans who supported it. Never one to let an insult slide, Donald Trump quickly became critical of Elon and his subsidies, and it devolved rapidly from there.Now the two most important individuals in the world are at bitter odds with one another. Elon accused Trump of appearing in the Epstein files; Trump shot back that he is a ketamine addict who should go back to Africa. No one can chart a path through the ticking time bombs of out-of-control spending, mass immigration, and trying to fund a government that spends over $200,000 per second.This episode is brought to you by our premier sponsors, Armored Republic and Reece Fund, as well as our Patreon members and donors.

Authoritarianism on the rise: Educators and unionists share strategies for resistance and victory, citing historical examples of successful labor movements, at a conference hosted by CUNY School of Labor and Urban Studies and Cornell Worker Institute in New York City this past May.This show is made possible by you!  To become a sustaining member go to LauraFlanders.org/donateDescription: Labor organizing is critical to any anti-fascist movement, but labor unions and worker education are feeling the impact of brutal Republican attacks and cuts. How are workers and educators responding? In this special report, from a conference held at the CUNY School of Labor and Urban Studies (SLU) in New York City, Laura spoke with Rebecca “Becky” Pringle, president of the National Education Association, the largest union in the country, about labor solidarity in the deep-red state of Utah; history professor Robert Cassannello, a plaintiff in a successful suit against Florida Gov. DeSantis's Stop Woke Act; and Rev. Ryan Brown, an Amazon worker/organizer from North Carolina, about how workers and educators are fighting back, and even winning in these times, although the obstacles are immense. The conference, “Labor and the Crisis of Democracy; Working Class Politics in a Time of Authoritarianism” was convened by the CUNY School of Labor and Urban Studies with the Cornell Worker Institute. “It's not the first time that our species have lived in perilous times, with pharaohs who are giving people work without any brick, without any straw. They have always figured out a way to organize, to mobilize and to agitate . . . Harriet Tubman, Fannie Lou Hamer, they were just regular, everyday human beings. No education. But they knew that fundamentally something was wrong about the world.” - Rev. Ryan Brown“You can study any authoritarian reign, any oligarch throughout history. The people who have the most success in fighting against them are educators and they are unionists . . . We understand these are multi-pronged attacks on every front. So we have to actually have a multi-pronged approach for educators.” - Becky Pringle GUESTS:• Reverend Ryan Brown: President, Carolina Amazonians United for Solidarity & Empowerment (CAUSE)• Robert Cassannello: History Professor, University of Central Florida; Incoming President, United Faculty of Florida (UFF)• Bhairavi Desai: Executive Director, NY Taxi Worker Alliance• Annabelle Heckler: Artist; Social Practice Fellow, CUNY• Sherman Henry: Director, Labor Institute for Advancing Black Strategies, Clark Atlanta University• Dr. Mudiwa Pettus: Assistant Professor, English Department, Medgar Evers College; Social Practice Fellow, CUNY • Rebecca “Becky” Pringle: President, National Education Association Check out the Bonus Interview in this podcast feed:  In a candid discussion with Laura, veteran union organizer Alex Han and U.S. Right Wing expert Tarso Ramos explore how workers are uniting against rising authoritarianism. Music Credit: “Jagged” by Blue Dot Sessions.

Welcome to the week people. Republican leaders are still trying to jam major cuts to Medicare, food stamps and other vital programs down our throats in the form of the Big Beautiful Bill, some GOP members have had to face tough questions from their constituents about how those cuts will effect them. But after being called out last week for making cuts that will ultimately kill many of her constituents, Republican Senator Joni Earnst says that we'll all die one day. Now she's released a cynical non-apology in response to the controversy. After that, Science journalist and astrophysicist Adam Becker is here to discuss his new book More Everything Forever. Check it out here: https://mitpressbookstore.mit.edu/book/9781541619593 As well as Adam's piece in the Guardian on the same subject: https://www.theguardian.com/commentisfree/2025/may/03/tech-oligarchs-musk In the Fun Half, Elon Musk sits down for an interview with CBS News but only wants to talk about rocket ships and seems upset that he's being asked about the Trump administration. Hakeem Jeffries gives the most limp nothing of an answer when asked what he's planning to do in response to federal agents entering the offices of Congressman Jerry Nadler and cuffing one of his aids, which came weeks after federal agents arrested Democratic Congresswoman LaMonica McIver. And people in San Diego spontaneously protest ICE agents as they raid local establishments.
