Podcast appearances and mentions of Donald Trump

Two months in, $25 billion spent, more than a dozen Americans dead, gas at 4.30 a gallon — and now Pete Hegseth and Donald Trump want to change the subject from Iran to Cuba. This is the forever war machine in real time: shift the target, claim the win, drag allies along, and hope the country doesn't notice. The angry middle is noticing. And they don't feel safer. Pete Hegseth is on the ropes, and the political class is finally asking the questions that should have been asked two months and 25 billion dollars ago. In this solo briefing, Paul Rieckhoff breaks down why the Secretary of Defense keeps comparing Iran to Venezuela — because he wants you to think it was a win — and why the next target on the board is Cuba. The polling hasn't moved. Americans don't support this war. Wars don't get more popular over time, and the man running this one served in one that proved it. This is a no-BS look at how the forever war machine drives away our allies, threatens the bases in Germany and Italy that have kept America secure for generations, and leaves the homeland exposed to domestic terrorism while DHS sits shuttered. Paul lays out the math that actually matters in 2026: 27 percent Republican, 27 percent Democrat, 45 percent independent — and 60 percent of young people unaffiliated. The future is none of the above. From Graham Platner's open field against Susan Collins in Maine to gas at 4.30 a gallon, the angry middle is the battlefield, and this episode is the briefing on how to read it. -WATCH full video of this episode here. -Ditch your expensive carrier and support Independent Americans!

Four years ago, Republicans stood on the floor of Congress and told the American people that the FBI used FISA - this secret surveillance court - to spy on Donald Trump. They were right. Kevin Clinesmith doctored evidence to keep the Carter Page warrant alive. The whole thing was a setup. And this week, those same Republicans voted to hand that exact same unreformed tool back to the FBI for three more years. No warrant requirement. No new safeguards. Nothing. I want to talk about why that happened, what's inside the classified court opinion that a sitting senator just forced into the open, and why, regardless of which party you voted for - your texts may already be in this database.SPONSOR: Lear CapitalWith gold and silver hitting all-time highs and forecasts pointing higher, Lear Capital is helping people protect their wealth with physical precious metals.

Last week, four judges, all nominated for lifetime appointments, when asked who won the 2020 election, refused to say the truth that Biden won. Last night, a Republican candidate for governor in California did the same. It would be as if they were asked what 2 + 2 equals, and they couldn't say 4. This is Trump's legacy. And so many Americans let Trump get away with it. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Trump says U.S. will guide stranded ships through Strait of Hormuz, why America's CEOs are getting older and the top states for retirees.

The US military's Central Command says two US-flagged merchant ships have passed through the Hormuz strait with its assistance.But a huge number of vessels and crew remain stranded. Can Donald Trump deliver on his promise to break the Iranian blockade?Also in the programme: The leaders of Europe and Canada stress a new unified approach to security, amid strained relations with the US; pet rescue scammers in Uganda; and the multi-billion dollar bid to buy eBay.(Photo shows vessels in the Strait of Hormuz near Bandar Abbas, Iran on 4 May 2026.

The left tries to dismiss the DOJ's case against former FBI director James Comey by saying an Instagram post won't be enough to convince a jury Comey was suggesting the assassination of President Trump. Todd Blanche bodies Kristen Welker and shared some background in the case that he says the DOJ is ready to prove beyond a reasonable doubt. The UFO Files seem closer to release... listen to Dan Aykroyd share his stories of FOUR alien encounters.    

The guy who wrote the bogus intel assessments that Russia was interfering in 2016 and 2020 and helped lead to the first impeachment of Trump is identified... and he really hopes you're not interested in learning more about him. JustTheNews does some digging and finds the entire case against Trump was laughably weak. Spirit Airlines shuts down, stranding thousands of travelers and putting 17,000 people out of work. Why Biden/Buttgieg/Warren helped the airline fail through their poor policies.  

With Iran losing a half billion dollars every day from the US blockade of the Hormuz Strait, President Trump offers US protection to guide stranded ships frozen in the Strait to safety. Trump also withdraws US troops from Germany as he looks to shrink US presence in Europe and NATO is paying close attention. Providing safe passage through the Persian Gulf will dramatically affect oil prices.  

Andreas Steno Larsen and Mikkel Rosenvold are back to break down the latest shifts in global markets, starting with fresh developments in the Strait of Hormuz, then they turn to the inflation outlook, and they tackle the AI narrative, asking whether the surge in capex and demand from mega-cap tech signals a bubble, as markets continue to climb despite widespread skepticism.

Miroslav Volf is back, and this time he brought his friend — poet and theologian Christian Wiman — and their book Glimmerings, collection of letters exchanged over years of friendship that moves from the problem of religious language to the hiddenness of God to what it means to trust without being able to specify what you're trusting toward. It's one of the more unusual and quietly devastating books I've read in a while, and the conversation was every bit as good. In it we discuss... The origin of their friendship and the letter exchange that became Glimmerings Why big words like faith, grace, and redemption slip free from meaning — and why that's a theological problem, not just a poetic one Attention, divine agency, and the debate between active receptivity and God's ontological priority Christian writing letters from a hospital room during an experimental bone marrow transplant — and what he felt, and didn't feel, about God's presence The hiddenness of God versus Christ hidden in the faces of non-Christian friends The cross, the resurrection, and why one is visceral and the other remains mostly imagination The risk of faith, William James's mountain climber, and why Wallace Stevens kept pointing toward a further leap The "masters of suspicion" and why intellectual culture rewards doubt more than hope The hard sayings of Jesus — the passages that act like shards of glass, and what it means to park them rather than tame them Where two or three are gathered — and whether that was always a warning about what happens at five hundred You can WATCH the conversation on YouTube Miroslav Volf is the Henry B. Wright Professor of Systematic Theology at Yale Divinity School and founder of the Yale Center for Faith and Culture. Born in Croatia and shaped by the former Yugoslavia, his theology has always been grounded in lived encounter with violence, nationalism, and the misuse of religious language. Previous podcasts with Miroslav Faith in the Public Square in the Era of Trump.

The coalition of activists known as “Make America Healthy Again,” or MAHA, has emerged as a legitimate force in American politics and it's hardly a given that they will remain aligned with President Trump and the Republican Party. Researcher and reporter Madeline Peltz returns to Posting Through It to brief us on the MAHA movement and their mission–weighing in on how his diverse group can theoretically be pulled away from the GOP. Madeline, Mike and Jared also analyze the “Netflix Monsters series-coded” life of MAHA's figurehead, Robert F. Kennedy Jr. The DMT, steroids and heroin-riddled political scion once severed off the penis of a raccoon to study it later. It's obviously a very impressive trick, but what does it say about his capacity to release his bountiful harvest all over the health of your loved ones?Links for Madeline:Read her newsletter: Number Two PencilWatch her video for More Perfect Union: We Found The REAL Reason Gen Z Wants To Be TradwivesFollow her on Bluesky: @peltzmadeline.bsky.social

Welcome to The Times of Israel's Daily Briefing, your 20-minute audio update on what's happening in Israel, the Middle East and the Jewish world. Military correspondent Emanuel Fabian joins host Amanda Borschel-Dan for today's episode. US President Donald Trump on Sunday rejected Iran’s latest proposal to end the war with the US and Israel, calling it unacceptable. Meanwhile, Trump said the United States would on Monday morning begin an effort to “guide” stranded ships out of the Strait of Hormuz, which he is branding "Operation Freedom." Fabian fills us in on an IDF briefing he attended on Friday, which assessed the Iran war's achievements so far. Amid constant tit-for-tat explosive conflict between Hezbollah and the IDF, the ceasefire doesn't exist in southern Lebanon, states Fabian. We delve into the Iranian-backed terror group's use of relatively cheap drones that are guided by fiber optic cables, making them effectively immune to electronic jamming. US President Donald Trump’s ​plan for the Gaza Strip, which was initially embraced by Israel and Hamas, calls for Israeli troops to withdraw from the enclave and reconstruction to ⁠start as Hamas lays down its weapons. As Hamas is not showing any signs of disarming, how is the IDF preparing? Religious Zionist rabbis from a range of institutions representing the community expressed their concern over a plan to allow women to serve with men in the Israel Defense Forces Armored Corps, with at least some vowing to instruct the students not to serve in tanks as long as that remains a possibility. Fabian delves into the recent conscription data of fighters from the haredi community versus female fighters. Check out The Times of Israel's ongoing liveblog for more updates.

Donald Trump boasted that the US government acts "like pirates", seizing Iran's ships and oil. "It's a very profitable business", he said. Meanwhile, Beijing is openly resisting Washington's sanctions against Chinese companies for trading with Iran. China has ordered all domestic firms to ignore US sanctions.

Sixty days. $25 billion. No open Strait of Hormuz, no enriched uranium recovered, no regime change, and gas prices up 42% since late February. That's the scoreboard on Iran, and it's the backdrop for Pete Hegseth's first real hearing — where combat veterans Seth Moulton and Pat Ryan finally put the Secretary of Defense through the wringer. Paul Rieckhoff joins the conversation to break down what oversight looks like when it actually shows up, why JD Vance and Dan Driscoll are watching, and why this war is metastasizing into something bigger than Iran. From Marco Rubio floating strikes on Cuba to Trump leaning on Putin as a peacemaker, this is forever war logic dressed up in new packaging — all gas, no brakes, no congressional authorization, and no plus-up for the VA to care for the next generation of veterans it'll create. Paul also unpacks the Comey indictment, the chilling effect on Jimmy Kimmel and the free press, and why the King of England sounded more like Reagan on alliances than the current administration. If you're in the angry middle and tired of the rigged two-party system handing you half-cooked wars and culture-war theater, this is your no-BS briefing. -WATCH full video of this episode here. -Ditch your expensive carrier and support Independent Americans!

This week on The Necessary Conversation, it's just Chad and Haley — the Lib Sibs holding it down. Mom and Dad are both out this week while Bob deals with some health issues. Love you, Dad. Get better soon. ❤️⚖️ Trump had James Comey indicted AGAIN — this time over an Instagram photo of seashells spelling "86 47" on a beach. The first indictment was already tossed by a judge. Acting AG Todd Blanche said they won't prosecute everyone who posts "86/47" — just Comey. We ask: is this anything other than political persecution?

After the killings of two American citizens in Minneapolis and the firing of DHS Secretary Kristi Noem, the Trump administration's immigration enforcement operation is attempting a bit of a reset. From calling ICE agents “NICE” agents on social media to reducing visible presence on the streets, it's clear new Secretary Markwayne Mullin wants federal agents out of the spotlight. But are the goals of President Donald Trump's mass deportation push any different? Plus, we hear from someone caught in the middle of the administration's crackdown on legal immigration.  For more: Exclusive: Trump moves to accelerate deportations of migrant children in US custody  ---  Guest: Priscilla Alvarez, CNN Correspondent  Host: David Rind  Producer: Paola Ortiz  Showrunner: Felicia Patinkin  Editorial Support: Tami Luhby Photo: Matthew Hatcher/Getty Images Learn more about your ad choices.

Greg Kelly Reports | May 1, 2026 The episode opens on a rare unifying high: the Artemis II crew returns from deep space and reframes the moon mission as a genuine American win, not just a technical feat but a shot of national confidence.  The astronauts describe the mission as awe-inspiring rather than abstract, with the far side of the moon, the “full Earth” image, and the shift into lunar gravity turning spaceflight into something visceral and human.  James Comey's indictment is framed as long-overdue accountability, with the show arguing the seashell post is only the surface layer of a much deeper pattern of anti-Trump abuse and institutional misconduct.  The Secret Service response at the White House Correspondents' Dinner is treated as a glaring failure, with the footage raising fresh questions about hesitation, broken procedure, and whether Trump is being protected with the urgency the moment demands.  The show closes by swinging from outrage back to optimism, using the Artemis crew as proof that courage, discipline, and ambition still exist in abundance even while politics and institutions keep falling short.

Roqayah is off this week, so Kumars is joined from the top of the show by returning guest-host Nora Barrows-Friedman and returning guest Maryam Jamshidi to discuss Maryam's recent article in The Nation headlined "Only One Side Has Clearly Broken the Law In the Strait of Hormuz. And it isn't Iran". Maryam is associate professor of law at the University of Colorado Law School, a nonresident fellow at the Quincy Institute. Nora is associate editor of the Electronic Intifada and cohost of the Electronic Intifada Daily News Roundup Livestream on YouTube.  Maryam shares her experience as an Iranian American since February 28 and shares her analysis of the true intent of Trump's blockade, why it's definitely illegal, why Iran's mining and transit passage regime in the Strait probably isn't, the imperialist foundations of international maritime law, and how international law can nevertheless be a vehicle for decolonizing states to assert their sovereignty. Follow Maryam on Twitter @MsJamshidi and Nora @norabf.
