Our latest Anchoring Truths Podcast episode centers on a 2026 case in the Second Circuit Court of Appeals, covering New York City. This case presented a fascinating opportunity to discuss the intersection of Natural Law, international law, and contract law. Petersen Energia Inversora v. YPF (2nd Cir. opinion here) concerns how Argentina raised more than a billion dollars from American investors on the New York Stock Exchange with ironclad anti-nationalization guarantees—only to seize YPF in 2012 and, according to the plaintiffs, stiff minority shareholders out of $16 billion.We are thrilled to discuss this case in light of those larger considerations with one of the lawyers for Petersen, our old friend and returning podcast guest Mike Fragoso. Mike is a partner at Torridon Law PLLC and counsel for Petersen Energia Inversora in one of the most important corporate-governance cases in a decade. Before entering private practice, Michael served as Chief Counsel to Senate Republican Leader Mitch McConnell, where he advised on judicial nominations, legislation, and high-stakes oversight. He previously held senior roles on the Senate Judiciary Committee, served as Deputy Assistant Attorney General in the Justice Department's Office of Legal Policy, clerked for Judge Diane Sykes on the Seventh Circuit, and began his career as a litigator at Kirkland & Ellis. A Notre Dame Law graduate (where he was a student of JWI's co-director Gerry Bradley) and Princeton alum (where he was a student of our friend Robert George), his writing has appeared in the Wall Street Journal, National Review, and elsewhere. We hope you enjoy the program.Read Fragoso's assessment of the Second Circuit ruling in City Journal.

The Alliance for Civics in the Academy hosts "Building Civic Unity in a Religiously Diverse Democracy" with Eboo Patel, Robert George, Fr. Francisco Nahoe, and Josh Ober on March 18, 2026, from 9:00-10:00 a.m. PT. Religious diversity is a defining feature of contemporary American democracy, yet it raises persistent questions about how civic unity is cultivated in shared public life. How can institutions of higher education prepare students to engage constructively across religious difference while sustaining common democratic commitments? This webinar explores the role of civic education in a religiously diverse democracy, examining pedagogical approaches, institutional frameworks, and normative principles that support civic unity without erasing pluralism.

Professor Robert P. George and Rafael Mangual explore the enduring foundations of American constitutionalism and what they reveal about human nature, power, and freedom. Drawing on the vision of the Founding Fathers, George explains why structural limits on authority—not just good intentions—are essential to preserving liberty.

Today, we take you inside Professor Robert P. George's talk on the future of the American conservative movement, look at Princeton's eight new faculty appointments, and cover the Baccalaureate speaker for Princeton's Class of 2026.

Conservative Robert George and progressive Cornel West talk to Margaret Hoover about their long-standing friendship that bridges their ideological differences in an interview recorded in 2020.George–who recently resigned from the board of the Heritage Foundation over its defense of Tucker Carlson's interview with white nationalist Nick Fuentes–explains what he learned from West about race in America. West, who ran for president as an independent candidate in 2024, comments on defending free speech as many fellow progressives favor restrictions and why he believes health care is a human right.West and George, authors of the recent book “Truth Matters,” delve into their differences on the merits of capitalism and socialism, and they offer advice on how to navigate political divisions at Thanksgiving dinner.Support for Firing Line with Margaret Hoover is provided by Robert Granieri, Vanessa and Henry Cornell, The Fairweather Foundation, The Tepper Foundation, Peter and Mary Kalikow, Pritzker Military Foundation, Cliff and Laurel Asness, Katharine J. Rayner, Lindsay and George Billingsley, and Jared Stone.

Tucker Carlson has dominated conservative media headlines recently following a deeply controversial interview with Nick Fuentes, a prominent white nationalist and Holocaust denier. This episode on his independent video platform led to extensive backlash throughout the Republican Party and conservative institutions, especially as Fuentes used the platform to discuss antisemitic conspiracy theories. The fallout was immediate: Texas Senator Ted Cruz criticized Carlson's handling of the interview, describing him as complicit in promoting harmful ideologies. Prominent conservative commentator Ben Shapiro also lambasted Carlson, calling him a dishonest interlocutor. Meanwhile, former President Donald Trump jumped into the fray, backing Carlson and arguing he should be free to interview whoever he wants, while encouraging the public to make their own judgments about Fuentes and other controversial guests. Trump expressed his continued admiration for Carlson and cited their successful interview which reached hundreds of millions of impressions.Within conservative think tanks, the controversy reached a breaking point at the Heritage Foundation. President Kevin Roberts defended Carlson's right to conduct the interview, calling him “a close friend” and resisting calls for cancellation. Yet, this stance led to internal upheaval, including the resignation of board member Robert George, who said he could not remain unless Roberts publicly retracted his supportive video. Several members of the Heritage Foundation's antisemitism task force also stepped down in protest, spotlighting deep divisions on the right regarding Carlson's influence, racism, and the boundaries of acceptable discourse.Despite these controversies, Carlson's media presence remains formidable and expanding. He's actively raising investor funds—reportedly aiming for hundreds of millions of dollars—with business partner Neil Patel to launch a new media company founded on subscription-based longer-form videos distributed primarily through X, formerly known as Twitter. His short-form video commentary continues to attract millions of viewers, and his enterprise, the Tucker Carlson Network, is drawing significant traffic by blending interviews with cultural and political commentary. Recent episodes have featured discussions with figures such as Andrew Tate, Tim Burchett, and Russell Brand, and his live national media tour has brought Carlson to packed venues, often alongside major right-wing personalities like Vivek Ramaswamy, Tulsi Gabbard, Kid Rock, Alex Jones, Marjorie Taylor Greene, and Donald Trump Jr.Carlson's recent programming has delved into subjects like U.S. government transparency, congressional insider trading, UFOs, and the politicization of campus life. His recent sit-down with Nikki Haley's son included pointed questions about America's relationship with Israel, reigniting debates around antisemitism and foreign policy in the conservative movement.In another headline-making moment, Carlson and Steve Bannon called out U.S. Ambassador Mike Huckabee for meeting with convicted Israel spy Jonathan Pollard—an incident Carlson condemned as “shocking behavior” and which was reportedly hidden from official schedules. The controversy led to further debate, with the White House saying Trump knew nothing about the meeting but still backs Huckabee as ambassador.Carlson is facing notable internal criticism even from within the MAGA coalition itself. This has become increasingly apparent after his exchanges with Laura Loomer, who has accused him of pro-Islamic bias—reflecting sharp divides on issues ranging from religion to foreign policy. Meanwhile, Carlson's rising stature in post-Fox media ventures is drawing comparisons to other major personalities and has placed him at the center of debates about the future of conservative media, especially as his network continues to attract both major audiences and considerable investment. In a particularly impactful development, Carlson is stepping in to headline Turning Point USA's upcoming Indiana University event—a move prompted by the tragic assassination of Charlie Kirk—with Megyn Kelly and Glenn Beck joining as guest speakers. This tour is being hailed by organizers as a major moment for campus free speech.While there's ongoing speculation about Carlson's income and net worth, current estimates place him between $30 and $50 million, boosted by family money and the rapid expansion of his digital media footprint. The financial maneuverings behind his new ventures continue to attract scrutiny and discussion in both business and political circles.Listeners, thank you for tuning in to the Tucker Carlson News Tracker podcast.

Professor George Is Right: Principle Sustains American Conservatism. Peter Berkowitz reviews Professor Robert George's assertion that American conservatism's core principle is the profound, inherent, and equal dignity of each human family member. George insisted that the movement must unequivocally reject white supremacists and anti-Semites, a rebuke directed at the Heritage Foundation president's defense of Tucker Carlson. This mirrors William F. Buckley's efforts to purge extremism from conservatism. Guest: Peter Berkowitz. 1856

Today, we take a look at the men's soccer season updates, Princeton's third annual FemaleFounded Conference, and Robert George's resignation from the Heritage Foundation Board.

Send us a textA farm-town promise met a ledger full of losses. We open with the hard math of tariffs and trade wars: higher equipment costs for growers, soybean sales to China evaporating overnight, and a puzzling turn to importing Argentinian beef just as America's cattle herd hits historic lows. Add four packers controlling most of the beef market and record profits at the top, and it's fair to ask whether “America First” ever reached the people it named.Then we step onto the hardwood, where legalized betting meets its predictable shadow. A head coach and a starting guard now face federal charges tied to illegal gambling and alleged match fixing with mafia links. We connect the dots between sports books in your pocket and the oldest playbook in organized crime. Why did we become a culture that loves the antihero? From The Godfather to prestige TV, our fascination with the villain has a cost: when corruption looks like drama, outrage dulls and lines blur.That thread pulls through government policy as well. When states bankroll budgets with lotteries and tax gambling revenue, the mandate to restrain harm flips into a search for more of it. We argue that systems built on unearned gain corrode communities, and the NBA scandal is a mirror: you cannot feed a vice and expect virtue to grow. The conversation turns pastoral and urgent on Gaza, challenging church silence with the historic call to speak for the oppressed and to prefer costly truth over comfortable neutrality.We also unpack a Senate vote rebuking unilateral tariffs, a constitutional reminder that Congress shares trade powers—and that tariffs act like taxes paid at the register. To rebuild a vocabulary for sanity, we draw on Robert George's account of the human person as a rational animal, capable of truth-seeking and moral choice, set against modern habits that reduce reason to serving desire. Closing with new data showing a sharp decline in trans and nonbinary identification among students, we hold two commitments at once: biology is stubborn, and every person bears unshakable dignity.If this resonated, follow the show, share it with a friend, and leave a review telling us where you think integrity should draw the line next. Your voice helps others find conversations that take truth and compassion seriously. Support the show

Professor Melissa Moschella of the University of Notre Dame joins us to discuss the contents of her recently published book titled, "Ethics, Politics, and Natural Law: Principles for Human Flourishing." A rich yet cogent articulation of New Natural Law Theory (NNLT), Moschella's work has been described as "the clearest, most readable exposition and defense of contemporary natural law theory yet to appear" by Dr. Robert George. Professor Moschella provides an overview of the ideas in her book with respect to the subject of parental rights and two recent landmark decisions currently shaping its discourse. Melissa Moschella is Professor of the Practice in Philosophy at the University of Notre Dame's McGrath Institute for Church Life. Her work spans the fields of ethics, political philosophy, and law, and her areas of special expertise include natural law theory, biomedical ethics, and the family, especially parental rights. She graduated magna cum laude from Harvard College, earned a Licentiate in Philosophy summa cum laude from the Pontifical University of the Holy Cross, and received her Ph.D. in Political Philosophy from Princeton University. 

This is a conversation with Dr. Robert George, professor at Princeton, on his recent book Seeking Truth and Speaking Truth. We discussed several issues related to culture, academia, theology, and politics.

As America has reeled from the assassination of Charlie Kirk, many have wondered what the future holds.How will this tragedy transform America? Will political violence continue to escalate? What is the path forward?To understand our current political and cultural moment, I sat down with legal scholar and political philosopher Robert George. He's a professor and director of the James Madison Program in American Ideals and Institutions at Princeton University.“We're at an inflection point, and it's very worrying, very dangerous,” George said. “We could easily fall into a cycle of revenge, and then what becomes of us?”For years, he has been contemplating how the age of faith and the age of reason have been succeeded by what he has described as the “age of feelings” and moral relativism.His new book is titled: “Seeking Truth and Speaking Truth: Law and Morality in Our Cultural Moment.”In this episode, we have explored Kirk's legacy, the dangers of ever-growing polarization, and the pernicious ideas that have eroded civil discourse and the foundations of our free society.“If this generation rising today does not adopt a spirit of civic friendship, if they don't value civil discourse, then … this grand experiment in republican government and ordered liberty bequeathed to us by our great founding fathers will be lost,” George said.Views expressed in this video are opinions of the host and the guest, and do not necessarily reflect the views of The Epoch Times.

One of the great pleasures of hosting the Origins Podcast is talking with fascinating thinkers who challenge my perspectives and with whom I can have frank, if provocative, discussions. My recent conversation with Robert George and Cornel West was particularly enjoyable. These two distinguished intellectuals embody the spirit of respectful and meaningful dialogue that the Origins Project Foundation aims to foster. Robert George is a renowned conservative legal scholar and Catholic professor at Princeton University, while Cornel West is a leading progressive philosopher and Protestant scholar at Union Theological Seminary, and an academic celebrity. Together, they've authored a timely new book, Truth Matters, exploring how fruitful dialogue can bridge ideological divides even during polarized times.In our conversation, we tackled subjects including philosophy, theology, politics, and the crucial role respectful disagreement plays in uncovering deeper truths. Joining the discussion as a scientist, atheist, and someone raised in a Jewish tradition, I brought a viewpoint to our exchange that differed from those of both Robert and Cornell, who in spite of their political differences are both Christians, and scholars in the humanities . It was especially rewarding to find common ground with Robert and Cornel despite our differing starting points. All told, I found it one of the most fascinating discussions to date, and the first with more than one person. It worked. :)This kind of rich and thoughtful engagement is precisely what inspired me to start the Origins Podcast. Robert George and Cornel West remind us that disagreements are valuable, as they help us move closer to understanding not only each other, but also ourselves.As always, an ad-free video version of this podcast is also available to paid Critical Mass subscribers.

If you're like me and grew up in the Government School system, you may have heard that the American Revolution was made possible by Enlightenment philosophy and deists who didn't believe in a Providential God. But, like many other things in our society, it seems like that idea is itself a lie. The fact is that George Washington, John Adams, and even Benjamin Franklin believed in a God that acted in the affairs of men. In this podcast, I had the opportunity to talk with Dr. Robert P. George from Princeton University, Dr. Stephen Meyer from the Discovery Institute, and Timothy Mahoney, the Founder of Thinking Man Films and Heroic Pictures. What do these three men have in common? They believe that the narrative we've been told about the American Revolution is a false one.We discussed their new movie, directed by Timothy Mahoney, The American Miracle. In this movie thinkers and scholars like Robert George and Stephen Meyer make the case that the American Revolution was made possible by the Providential hand of God working in the affairs of men - not merely enlightenment philosophy. They also make the claim that founders like George Washington and John Adams were prayerful Christians who believed that God was working in their own lives. We discussed all of this and so much more.
