Andrew Rappaport and Adam Parker dive deep into the complex interplay of biblical theology, politics, and international relations, centering their discussion on the ongoing conflict in Israel and the implications of dispensationalism in contemporary Christian thought. The episode kicks off with a robust exploration of the so-called "12 Day War," where they dissect recent events, including the intricate socio-political dynamics surrounding Israel and Iran. Rappaport sheds light on the theological underpinnings that shape views on Israel's status as a nation and its relationship with the Jewish diaspora, while Parker interjects with a critique of how modern interpretations often clash with established doctrines. The duo doesn't shy away from addressing the controversial political rhetoric surrounding figures like Ted Cruz and Tucker Carlson, using their exchange as a springboard for examining broader cultural narratives within the church. Ultimately, they emphasize the necessity of engaging in informed dialogue about Israel that transcends simplistic narratives, advocating for a nuanced understanding of both scripture and global politics.Takeaways: The podcast delves into the complex relationship between modern Israel and the concept of dispensationalism, exploring theological implications that arise in current geopolitical contexts. Andrew Rapoport highlights the significance of understanding Israel's historical and biblical context amidst contemporary debates, emphasizing a need for accurate theological discourse. Adam Parker expresses concern over the increasing anti-Israel sentiment within Christian circles, noting a troubling trend of theological interpretations that seem to dismiss Israel's significance. The discussion critiques the recent 12 Day War, with insights into the motivations behind military actions and the implications of U.S. foreign policy on Israel's security. Listeners are encouraged to engage thoughtfully with the contentious narratives surrounding Israel, aiming to foster more genuine conversations that bridge differing theological perspectives. The episode serves as a clarion call for Christians to not shy away from political discussions, stressing the importance of addressing these issues from a biblical perspective, rather than purely cultural or political lenses.

In this episode of Campaign Trend, host Eric Wilson sits down with Ron Nehring, Director of International Programs at the Leadership Institute and former national spokesman for Ted Cruz's 2016 presidential campaign, to discuss the critical gaps in campaign technology for down-ballot races.Nehring outlines five key challenges facing campaign tech developers: building affordable message testing tools for local campaigns, segmenting voters by engagement level using the "core vs. crowd" framework, translating digital insights into analog strategy, creating better feedback loops to replace unreliable polling, and developing tools that challenge prevailing political narratives.The conversation reveals why political insiders often struggle to connect with non-political voters and offers practical solutions for tech entrepreneurs looking to penetrate the fragmented world of local campaigns. Recorded at the Leadership Institute's studios following Nehring's presentation at ElectTech San Francisco.Subscribe on YouTube: Visit the Campaign Trend Website: Follow us on X Follow us on LinkedIn Subscribe to our Newsletter Become a Campaign Trend Insider

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.

Authorities were still searching for survivors of the deadly July 4 floods in Central Texas when some Democrats started asking whether President Donald Trump's cuts at the National Weather Service exacerbated the disaster. Republicans, including Texas Senator Ted Cruz, accused those Democrats of “partisan finger-pointing.” How early is too early to talk about accountability? And is a nuanced policy conversation to prevent future tragedies possible in our political climate? Democratic strategist Rebecca Pearcey joins on the left, Republican strategist Mike Dubke joins on the right, and host David Greene holds down the center. Five years after the pandemic, American kids are still struggling in reading and math. Glimmers of hope are shining in red states like Louisiana, Alabama, and Mississippi. What are those states doing right? And are both parties too distracted by the culture war to focus on improving public education?Elon Musk threatened to start a third party if Trump passed his “Big Beautiful Bill.” The tech billionaire launched that party on X this week, saying he wants to represent the “80%” of Americans “in the middle.” Is anyone on the left or the right taking him seriously? Or is this just the latest development in his very-public spat with the president?

Burnie and Becca Frasier (and Clem!) sit down to talk about her fundraising results, Rooster Teeth charity drives, the changing reputation of Texas, Ted Cruz stans, frequently rare climate events, lake levels, and the lucrative world of Labubu.

In this explosive monologue, the speaker alleges that China is waging a covert war on America through bioweapons, energy manipulation, and environmental influence. The episode dives deep into claims of Chinese agents smuggling weaponized organisms, rare earth mineral dependence, and the strategic re-opening of the Ramaco Brook Mine in Wyoming—America's first rare earth and coal mine in decades. Featuring fierce criticism of the Biden administration and praise for Donald Trump's energy policies, the commentary argues that reclaiming energy independence is critical to national security, technological leadership, and American survival. Includes remarks from Senator Ted Cruz on Chinese-funded legal warfare targeting U.S. energy production.

After Texas floods, questions about FEMA's future loom large. Jeffrey Epstein's brother laughs at 'stupid' FBI memo defending controversial suicide ruling. Hundreds of Amazon packages mistakenly shipped to woman's home for over a year. Diabetic Barbie. Ted Cruz defends National Weather Service alerts in Texas floods, decries ‘partisan finger pointing'. Musk's AI firm forced to delete posts praising Hitler from Grok chatbot. UPS, Yellow Corporation, and Boeing gave into union demands, massive layoffs followed.

The One Big Beautiful Bill is now President Trump's signature legislative achievement, including sweeping changes to taxes, immigration, and spending priorities. But buried in the budget reconciliation process, an AI regulation fight became one of the most contentious debates in the entire package.Senator Ted Cruz championed a 10-year moratorium on most state and local AI regulation, arguing that a patchwork of conflicting laws would hamstring American companies in their competition with China. His solution was clever: tie the moratorium to rural broadband funding through budget reconciliation, allowing it to pass with simple Republican majorities.The Senate parliamentarian approved the measure under the Byrd rule, giving Cruz's proposal the green light. But the coalition that formed against it was unexpected. Instead of typical partisan lines, opponents included not just Democrats and left-leaning groups, but also MAGA influencers like Steve Bannon, conservative senators like Josh Hawley and Marsha Blackburn, child safety advocates, and Republican governors.The drama peaked when Blackburn—after negotiating a compromise with Cruz to reduce the time frame to five years and add exemptions to allow state laws on child safety and rights of publicity—walked away from the deal at the last moment. When the dust settled, the Senate voted 99-1 to strip the AI moratorium entirely—a decisive defeat for the tech industry.The fight exposed deeper tensions over federalism, corporate power, and whether conservatives are willing to override state authority to boost American tech competitiveness. The resounding rejection suggests many weren't. So where does the fight for a national AI standard go from here, and what does this defeat mean for the shaky alliance between “tech bros” and the Trump Administration?

Die dodetal in die Texas-vloede het tot minstens 104 gestyg, met ten minste 75 net in die Kerr-distrik. Beamptes sê die soektog na dosyne mense wat vermis word gaan voort, te midde van waarskuwings van meer reën. Camp Mystic, 'n somerkamp vir meisies in die Kerr-distrik, het bevestig dat minstens 27 meisies en personeel onder die dooies tel. Tien meisies en een personeellid word steeds vermis. Die Texas senator Ted Cruz het by 'n perskonferensie in Kerrville oor die tragedie gepraat.

This bible study episode explores the complex relationship between Israel and the Church, challenging the misconception that unconditional support for the modern state of Israel is mandated by biblical prophecy. Pastor Anthony Uvenio meticulously defines "Israel" throughout scripture – as a personal name (Jacob), tribal name (Jacob's descendants), national name (those delivered from Egypt), splintered kingdom (Judah and Israel), restored people (post-exile), and finally, as the remnant believers in the New Covenant. The Church, conversely, is defined as the "called-out ones," born-again believers in Jesus Christ. The core argument centers on the distinction between the Old Covenant (physical circumcision, potential for covenant without knowing God) and the New Covenant (spiritual circumcision, indwelling of the Holy Spirit, knowledge of God). Pastor Anthony emphasizes that the New Covenant, established through Jesus's sacrifice, is inclusive of all nations, fulfilling the promises made to Abraham, and that true spiritual Israel is defined by faith in Christ, not lineage. The episode critiques the conflation of supporting Israel with receiving God's blessing, citing Genesis 12 and Galatians 3 to demonstrate that God's blessings extend to all who believe through faith in Christ. The discussion also touches upon the theological implications of dispensationalism and Zionism, particularly concerning the interpretation of scripture and its impact on political stances, such as those held by figures like Ted Cruz. Ultimately, the podcast advocates for a nuanced understanding of Israel and the Church, urging believers to support Israel when acting biblically, but to rebuke disobedience, while simultaneously focusing on the global mission of spreading the Gospel to all nations.#IsraelAndTheChurch #biblicalisrael #newcovenant #oldcovenant #israelites #churchhistory #theology #christianity #messianicjudaism #reformedtheology Christianity #dispensationalism Podcast: https://creators.spotify.com/pod/show/reformedrookie/episodes/Israel-and-the-Church-Whos-Who-e3585s0www.ReformedRookie.comPodcast: https://anchor.fm/reformedrookieFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/TheReformedRookie Twitter: https://twitter.com/NYapologistSemper Reformanda!

Forget the fourth of July- if you want real fireworks, you gotta check out the incendiary interview between Tucker Carlson and Ted Cruz. It was... a lot. But when two insufferable gasbags collide that hard, you're going to get a gas giant explosion. Just be glad you couldn't smell it. One of the points of contention had to do with Israel, and Cruz's insistence that the Bible commanded him (and all believers) to take care of it. Ol' Ted might not have known what the exact scripture was, but he was positive that it said that he had to defend Israel no matter what. Tucker had a different take. So is that what the scripture says? Are believers obligated to back the actions of Israel because the Bible says so, or is there more to the edict in Genesis? Then we head to the nine verses of Psalm 137 to explore one of the more disturbing imprecatory prayers in the Bible. It couldn't really mean that it wants people to dash children against a rock, right? That's gotta be just a metaphor, right?

In a surprisingly acrimonious interview, Tucker Carlson took Senator Ted Cruz to task over his unwavering support for Israel and broader U.S. interventionist policies. On this episode of the More Freedom Foundation Podcast, hosts Robert Morris and Ruairi unpack one of the more illuminating media moments of the second Trump administration.As Carlson challenges Cruz on foreign policy, we dive deep into a growing rhetorical movement within Trump's base—voters and influencers who claim to be firmly anti-war, pro-peace, and skeptical of costly U.S. entanglements abroad. From Ukraine to Israel to the rising drumbeat for war with Iran, many America First conservatives claim that they are rejecting the neoconservative legacy in favor of restraint and realism.Whether you're disillusioned by endless wars or intrigued by the ideological realignment that might be happening on the American Right, this episode offers critical insights into the future of U.S. foreign policy.Subscribe to the More Freedom Foundation Podcast for weekly deep dives on foreign policy, media, and the new political landscape reshaping America.⁠⁠⁠Patreon⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Website⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Books⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Twitter⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠TikTok

Zohran Mamdani didn't just beat Andrew Cuomo — he buried him. In a race many expected to be tight or favor Cuomo through ranked-choice tallies, Mamdani delivered a knockout in the first round. The final numbers weren't close: Mamdani pulled in 545,000 votes to Cuomo's 428,000. That's a blowout. And it happened despite Cuomo once polling at an absurd 80%. This wasn't just a campaign upset — it was the end of Cuomo's delusion that he could waltz back into New York politics on name recognition alone.Mamdani's campaign was sharp and technically sound. He mastered ranked-choice mechanics — building coalitions, securing second-choice support, and locking in endorsements from the Working Families Party and key progressive organizers. But he didn't just activate the left. He reached across neighborhoods and demographics, putting in real ground work. His message wasn't just ideological; it was practical and local — housing, transit, jobs. The kind of politics that wins you quiet votes in places people don't usually canvass.Now, Mamdani becomes a national proxy whether he wants to or not. Republicans will make him the new face of the Democratic Party, using his self-identified socialism as a scarecrow in swing states. But that spotlight also comes with opportunity. He's proven he can organize, message, and win. If Mamdani survives the general — and with Eric Adams now backed into a defensive fight, that's looking more likely — he could emerge as a new progressive standard-bearer not just for New York, but for the left nationwide.Politics Politics Politics is a reader-supported publication.

This was their first real moment of unity since a brutal 2024 GOP primary season. On the surface, they were aligned — joking, praising one another, presenting a strong front on immigration.Behind the smiles, though, Florida politics remains deeply tribal. There's always more going on under the surface. This wasn't just a unity photo-op; it was a strategic pivot. With the media focused on deportation centers and immigration enforcement, Democrats' messaging about Medicaid cuts and policy substance is being drowned out. Whether this is 5D chess from Trump or just savvy instinct, the outcome is the same — the right is driving the conversation.And here's my hunch: DeSantis is bound for a Trump administration role. Maybe not immediately, but certainly toward the end of his term. I don't know the exact position, but his re-alignment with Trump suggests he's looking for a path forward that keeps him in the national conversation.Allred's Return and the Uphill Battle in TexasColin Allred is back, launching another Senate bid in Texas, likely against Ken Paxton. His opening ad leans heavily on anti-corruption themes, clearly aimed at Paxton's scandals and ethical baggage. It's a smart choice if Paxton is the nominee. Voters don't forget public messes involving mistresses, real estate ties, and abandoned staff.That said, I'm not sold on Allred. His ad doesn't connect — it's too heavy on biography and too light on vision. People watching already know who he is. They're asking what he's going to do differently this time. He had a respectable run against Ted Cruz, but he didn't break through. And in a state like Texas, breaking through isn't optional — it's the baseline requirement.Texas Democrats face a structural problem. The party's progressives dominate primaries but struggle to produce general election winners. Allred's strength as a former football player was undercut by the trans sports issue. He doesn't read as a football guy, and he doesn't read as the kind of candidate who can split the difference between national party expectations and Texas voter realities. I'll be watching this race, but my expectations are tempered.Chapters00:00:00 - Intro00:03:03 - Interview with Kirk Bado00:29:16 - Update00:29:53 - Final NYC Mayoral Primary Results00:33:57 - Trump and DeSantis Reunite00:37:29 - Colin Allred for Texas Senate00:45:05 - Interview with Kirk Bado (con't)01:07:04 - Steelers Talk01:19:13 - Bonus Politics Question01:19:52 - Wrap-up This is a public episode.

It's the Cabbage Patch craze, replicated, updated and done all over again. Little thingees in boxes that influencers put on their bags. Why? Is this demon activation? Not hating, just not understanding. If you don't have detractors, you're not doing anything good. Some George Floyd details will shock us. All those funerals. Let's secure the elections that are coming. The Red Wedding op messed things up. Desperate coverups and hiding past evidence is what's happening. Mossad infiltrated using Fauci and stolen Covid data. Tina Peters was setup, and had to go to jail. Don't read scripts, write them. Who's a cat lady, with A.D.D.? Human beings have been cultivated to accept an altered reality. Sad, pathetic and insane. The truth doesn't need lipstick. Yes, George Floyd was involved in printing duplicate ballots. That's why they killed him. The CCP had a deal made. Strange that paper plants were catching fire around the election. Karl Rove and Ted Cruz helped steal the election. It's a circle jerk with the MSM and influencers. The greedy bastards want blood. Israel funded the VAXXX and the panic. The old order is going down hard, and the normies are going to be shocked. We should all be prepared to help.
