Evangelical pastor and self-proclaimed Christian nationalist Doug Wilson has been preaching for decades that America needs to reclaim its Puritan past. But in 2025, he believes he's “significantly” more influential. Does that mean America is closer to Wilson's goal of theocracy?

Morocco's theocratic monarchy claims to protect free expression, yet an activist faces jail time and denial of cancer treatment because she wore a t-shirt that said, "Allah is lesbian". This glaring contradiction exposes how religious authority uses caveats in the law to maintain control, proving that freedom of expression means nothing if the "right to offend" is stripped away. Her heroism in pointing out the system's flaws shows that where laws are unjust, speaking out is a duty, regardless of the staggering personal cost.  News Source: Moroccan woman on trial for blasphemy after wearing a shirt to that challenged religious authority By Akram Ubashir for Religious News Service August 28th, 2025

In this third edition of the Truth Warrior Roundtable, we sit down with David Whitehead and Matt Presti to tackle one of the most turbulent moments in recent memory — the assassination of Charlie Kirk and the shockwaves it sent through the “truth” community. We break down the reactions on both the left and the right, the flood of conspiracy claims surrounding the event, and how Israel once again became a central point of debate in the aftermath.This conversation goes beyond headlines to address the deeper war on consciousness itself — why people struggle to hold uncertainty, the consequences of irresponsible speech, the role of faith and resilience in times of tragedy, and how to stay grounded in evidence and individualism rather than clickbait and emotional manipulation.Time Stamps(00:00) Episode Teaser(00:36) Opening Conversation(03:25) Guest Introductions(09:12) Discussion on Current Events and Truth Seeking(11:14) Reactions to Charlie Kirk's Assassination(17:19) Conspiracy Theories and Media Influence(42:00) Candace Owens(47:35) The Importance of Reason and Truth-Seeking(50:02) The Role of Influencers and Propaganda(52:52) The Complexity of Middle Eastern Politics(56:21) The Roots of Antisemitism and Historical Context(01:02:36) Judaism, Christianity, and Islam: Philosophical Differences(01:11:42) The Talmud Misconceptions(01:15:27) The Dangers of Collective Blame(01:30:50) The Pursuit of Truth vs. Being Right(01:32:07) The State of America and Government Actions(01:34:58) The Influence of Communism and Historical Parallels(01:36:40) Metaphysics vs. Physical Solutions(01:39:07) The Role of Religion in Society(01:42:39) Concerns About Christian Revival and Theocracy(01:51:12) The Power of the Individual vs. The Collective(01:56:47) Closing Thoughts on Individuality and FreedomGuest Linkshttps://www.dwtruthwarrior.com/ https://dwtruthwarrior.substack.com/ https://mattpresti.substack.com/ https://www.mattpresti.com/ Connect with UsJoin our membership Friends of the TruthSubscribe to Here for the Truth FridaysWatch Joel's Presentation: “Myths to Awaken the Soul”Take the Real AF Test NowDiscover Your Truth Seeker ArchetypeWatch all our episodesConnect with us on TelegramAccess all our links

This week, we deep dive into Pastor Robert Shinn, his Shekinah Church, and his management company 7M Films - and examine how a modern cult has (allegedly) exploited TikTok dancers, financially abusing them, sexually abused them and other members, while also possibly being connected to the very popular and scary Seven Mountains Mandate that currently has strong Whitehouse connections. While this cult is scary, a brewing American attempt at a theocracy is the most disturbing part of this week's information-heavy episode for me.  Hail Nimrod! Merch and more: www.badmagicproductions.com Timesuck Discord! https://discord.gg/tqzH89vWant to join the Cult of the Curious PrivateFacebook Group?

It has been 16 days since the political assassination of Turning Point founder Charlie Kirk, and America is still struggling to put all the pieces in place to make it make sense, but to no avail. It's a rabbit hole that changes shape the more time you spend in it, but one thing is for sure. Charlie left behind a massive, multimillion dollar empire that helped elect a president and just may now be used to usher in a theocracy in America. Asking if this is good or bad is not the question, the question is who sits on the 7 mountains?“And here is the mind which hath wisdom. The seven heads are seven mountains, on which the woman sitteth. For God hath put in their hearts to fulfil his will, and to agree, and give their kingdom unto the beast, until the words of God shall be fulfilled.” Revelation 17:9,17 (KJB)On this episode of the Prophecy News Podcast, this will be, by far, one of the toughest podcasts we've ever had to do as it will undoubtedly push just about everyone's buttons today in some form or another. The relentless onslaught of the never-ending news cycle has, by now, elevated Charlie Kirk to nearly the level of Roman Catholic sainthood which, truth be told, is not as wacky as you might think it would be. Charlie Kirk was a true patriot, no doubt about that, and he was an outspoken witness for Jesus Christ, no doubt about that, either. But the true weight of his legacy is far more complex than how it appears on the surface. Charlie Kirk was deeply embedded with radical factions of the New Apostolic Reformation, he was a ‘true believer' in the 7 Mountains Mandate, and as you will hear him say, President Donald Trump is onboard with all of it. The New Apostolic Reformation believes they have a holy mandate to seize control of America to bring in the Kingdom of Heaven. Charlie Kirk believed that, and now the empire he left behind will be leveraged to attempt to bring it to pass. We have the proof, and today you will see it and hear it for yourself.

In this Garage Edition of The Court of Public Opinion, Jeremy Cordeaux tackles some of the week’s most controversial issues — from the recognition of Palestine and the treatment of women in the Middle East, to the questionable effectiveness of charity campaigns. He takes aim at climate policy, Labour’s economic decisions, and government hypocrisy on emissions versus defence spending. Jeremy also raises concerns about electric vehicles, Chinese technology, and government subsidies, before wrapping with reflections on history, culture, and notable birthdays. Topics discussed; Recognition of Palestine’s statehood and Middle East politics Criticism of Plan International charity ads and underage marriage issues Quotes from the Koran and discussion of cultural/religious practices Salman Rushdie and freedom of speech Australian police officer applauding assassination comments Climate change, Julia Gillard’s carbon tax, and Labour’s policies Chris Bowen’s statements and climate targets Government hypocrisy: emissions vs defence spending Electric vehicles, subsidies, Chinese surveillance risks Historic anniversaries, birthdays (Mark Hamill, Michael Douglas), and trivia See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

“Why The Church Is A Republic Not A Theocracy” asserts the absolute and inalienable right of individuals to the products of their own creation, emphasizing that no one else can lay claim to another's work. It critiques systems that endorse common ownership or parasitism, positioning the Citizen Republic as grassroots, and citizen-controlled alternative grounded in the Principle of Subsidiarity. The citizen republic respects individual ownership and rejects top-down power structures, distinguishing itself from both theocracies and authoritarian regimes, and insists that true equality means the equal right to what we create. We all have a right to be paid for any work that we do and no right to be paid when no value has been created.

This episode dives into the alarming rhetoric of Christian nationalist Pastor Doug Wilson, whose vision for a "Christian nation" would drag us back to the 14th century, stripping women of their rights and redefining democracy to serve male supremacy. We explore how figures like Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth amplify such dangerous ideology, showcasing how easily theology is weaponized into public policy. It's a chilling reminder of how "slow, patient, radical movements" threaten our secular society, twisting language and facts to push a regressive agenda. We unpack the hypocrisy and the urgent need for critical thinking against this creeping theocracy.News Source:The Christian nationalist pastor with ties to Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth CNN PoliticsBy Pamela Brown, Shoshana Dubnow for CNNAugust 8, 2025

"Christians" are opposed to Christian Nationalism but have little problem with this current Luciferian Theocracy. Christians sarcastically ask "which denomination will run the theocracy?"  Are they asking which branch of Satanism is running this current Luciferian Theocracy? Christians will offend Jesus Christ and the Word of God their entire lives and never give it a thought; but every moment they will do anything to avoide offending the Jews, the Trannies, the Hindues, the sodomites and the Muslims.  We need a big fat slap in our faces.

A terrifying Christian movement, the Seven Mountains Mandate, aims to dominate every facet of society—religion, family, education, government, media, arts, and business. This blatant attempt at societal takeover, supported by nearly half of evangelicals, mirrors the very authoritarianism they claim to despise in other ideologies. It's a calculated, insidious push for Christian nationalism, leveraging media control and targeting vulnerable youth to build an ideological "army," proving that power, not piety, is the true goal. This is what fascism looks like.News Source:The Seven Mountains Mandate Is Not A Hill You Want To Die OnBy Stuart Delony for Snarky FaithAugust 6, 2025

Donald Trump's use of federal forces to crack down on residents of Washington, D.C. is not well received. Neither is the crackdown by federal immigration authorities on immigrant school children. Gavin Newsom has presented his counter to Donald Trump's gerrymandering scheme by offering to voters a new district map that would only be triggered if Texas changes their map first. Jen Psaki takes a closer look at the Christian nationalist extremists who have a concerning amount of influence on members of the Trump administration. Michael McFaul offers a preview of Trump's Friday meeting in Alaska with Vladimir Putin. And Alex Jones has lost another court case and it another stop closer to losing all of his business assets to pay for the Sandy Hook Elementary judgment against him.

In his explosive WBCQ premiere, the freshly resurrected and notorious radio legend Todd Thompson launches a scorched-earth offensive against the ideological virus hollowing out the West from within. This opening salvo dives straight into the heart of the modern insurgency—unmasking the Democratic Socialists of America as a parasitic force infecting the Democratic Party through euphemism, moral camouflage, and Marxist entryism. Drawing from firsthand experience inside the Occupy movement, Todd lays bare how identity has replaced class in the new dialectic, and how victimhood has become the currency of power in a society addicted to narrative performance. Topics include: The DSA as the “Red Tea Party” An introduction the the Red-Green Alliance Ideological religion and the rise of digital priesthoods Weaponized empathy, speechcrime, and the new moral caste system Why corporate America bows to DEI cultism The soft revolution: psychological warfare disguised as virtue And why the path to reclaiming reality begins with ideological disobedience   Broadcast from Southwest Michigan and blasted worldwide via shortwave, this is not just a show. It's the opening shot in an information war. This is The Counter-Insurgency. No soft landings. No apologies.

In this episode of Korea Deconstructed, I sit down with Ra Jong-yil, a scholar, diplomat, and influential figure in modern Korean politics. We recorded this conversation in his house in Seoul. Born in 1940 during the Japanese occupation of Korea, Ra Jong-yil has lived through some of the country's most defining historical moments. And, in many cases, helped shape them. We talk about his father's role in the Provisional Government in Shanghai alongside Syngman Rhee, Kim Ku, and Ahn Chang Ho. Ra also reflects on his mentorship of Kim Dae-jung and Roh Moo-hyun, two presidents who helped usher in Korea's democratic era, and with whom he later served in high positions as well as in the role of Ambassador of the ROK in the United Kingdom (2001 - 2003) and Ambassador of the ROK in Japan (2004-2007) The Baekbong Political Culture Research Institute: http://bbi.or.kr/ Inside North Korea's Theocracy (book): https://www.amazon.com/Inside-North-Koreas-Theocracy-Song-thaek/dp/1438473729 Wikipedia: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ra_Jong-yil Thank you to Han Jong-chul for helping me record on location: https://www.instagram.com/the_story_from_you/ Discussion Outline 0:00 Korea Under Occupation 9:10 Baekbong Na Yong-kyun (Jong-Yil's father) 22:30 Liberal Democracy in Korea 44:18 On Kim Dae-jung 1:07:17 On Roh Moo-hyun 1:27:05 On Compassion, Books, and Myths   David A.

Texas lawmakers, ignoring devastating floods, shamelessly prioritize a discriminatory bathroom bill, mandating transgender individuals use restrooms based on birth sex. This vile legislation, cloaked in false protection, exposes a hateful agenda to control and endanger marginalized citizens. It's a blatant example of bigoted politicians weaponizing fear and "purity culture" to oppress, rather than address actual crises. The true intent is not protection, but public shaming and identification, harkening back to dark historical periods of government-sanctioned dehumanization. A clear call for human rights over baseless prejudice.Kerr County Flood Relief Fund: https://cftexashillcountry.fcsuite.com/erp/donate/create/fund?funit_id=4201News Source:Transgender bathroom bill added to Texas flood relief special sessionBy Brooke Sopelsa for NBC NewsJuly 15, 2025

On June 13th, Israel launched attacks on several military and nuclear facilities in Iran, marking the beginning of a 12-day war between the two countries. The United States followed with targeted strikes on Iranian nuclear sites to prevent Iran from becoming a nuclear power and posing a threat to regional and global stability. China's involvement in the conflict was limited to condemning the Israeli and US use of military force and calling for de-escalation. Beijing offered only rhetorical support for Tehran. To discuss what the Israel-Iran war reveals about China's relationship with Iran, its evolving strategy in the Middle East, and the broader implications for US-China competition, we are joined by Yun Sun on the podcast today. Yun is a Senior Fellow, co-Director of the East Asia Program and Director of the China Program at the Stimson Center. Her recent piece in The Wire China entitled “How China Sees Iran's Future” offers provides a nuanced take on Beijing's calculus during and after the war. Timestamps[00:00] Start[01:34] China's Diplomatic Strategy Toward the Middle East[05:00] A Limited Chinese Response and China's Regional Role[08:19] Chinese Perceptions of Iran's External Strategic Blunders[15:00] Trickling Chinese Investment into Iran[20:10] Chinese Concerns About a Nuclearized Iran[25:09] Implications of the Israel-Iran War for China's Energy Security[32:04] Trump's Response Shaping Chinese Views of the United States 

The New Yorker staff writer Andrew Marantz joins Tyler Foggatt for another episode of “How Bad Is It?,” a monthly series that examines the health of American democracy. They discuss whether the President's recent strikes on Iran's nuclear facilities may threaten his “America first” coalition, how the threat of war may enable him to consolidate more power domestically, and whether Trump's use of the National Guard to quell protest in Los Angeles is truly undemocratic.This week's reading: “Zohran Mamdani's New York City Miracle,” by Eric Lach “Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson's Declaration of Independence,” by Ruth Marcus “A.I.

A fragile ceasefire is in effect between Israel and Iran, just days after the United States intervened in the war by striking Iranian nuclear sites. President Trump is claiming credit, but journalist and Middle East politics expert Robin Wright writes, “the outcome of this war may be shaped more by Iran's culture and politics than by the military prowess of its opponents.” We look at Iran's and Israel's end games and the implications here of U.S. involvement.

In this episode of Hawk Podcasts, we dive headfirst into the bizarre and disturbing world of Curtis Yarvin, a.k.a. Mencius Moldbug—a man whose anti-democracy, neo-reactionary ideology is beloved by Silicon Valley elites like Peter Thiel, Mark Andreessen, and even JD Vance.Yarvin wants to replace democracy with a CEO-style monarchy. Yes, really. No elections, no opposition, just top-down autocratic control led by billionaires. We explore his connections to the Trump world, his shockingly racist writings, and his role in inspiring Project 2025.Along the way, we call out his bizarre terminology—“SovCorps,” “Patchwork Sovereignty,” and his casual praise for slavery as a “private welfare” solution. All from a man who claims he's not a white nationalist... even though he had to write essays explaining why.This is Part 1 of our Yarvin takedown. We'll laugh, we'll rage, we'll realign our chakras—because it's that wild.

 Texas book ban backfires after school removes Bible over 'sexually explicit' contentThe Friendly Atheist, By Hemant Mehta, on December 23, 2024https://www.friendlyatheist.com/p/texas-book-ban-backfires-after-schoolIn 2023, Texas passed House Bill 900, banning sexually explicit books from school libraries. This law led the Canyon Independent School District to remove the Bible from its shelves due to its graphic depictions of violence, incest, and sexual assault. However, once this removal was discovered in December 2024, Republican Representative Jared Patterson—who sponsored the bill—reacted angrily. He accused the district's superintendent of misinterpreting the law and demanded the Bible's immediate reinstatement, dismissing claims that it contained explicit content. Despite the law being applied fairly, political pressure forced the superintendent to reverse course, restoring the Bible to school shelves without explanation.This situation exposes the hypocrisy of lawmakers who create sweeping policies but expect exemptions for religious texts. The Bible, despite containing mature content, was treated as immune to the very standards imposed on other books. Patterson's reaction demonstrates how political interests can override consistent application of the law, prioritizing religious favoritism over educational integrity. Critics argue this undermines the separation of church and state and compromises children's educational environments by making exceptions for religious doctrine while censoring other literature. The superintendent's capitulation to political pressure reflects how deeply religious influence is embedded in educational policy, especially in conservative regions like Texas.The Non-Prophets, Episode 24.2.4 featuring Jimmy Jr., Tracy Wilbert, Helen Greene, and Stephen HarderBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-non-prophets--3254964/support.

A Satanic display was destroyed outside the New Hampshire CapitolThe Friendly Atheist, By Hemant Mehta, on December 11, 2024https://www.friendlyatheist.com/p/a-satanic-display-was-destroyed-outsideThe discussion begins with a story about the Satanic Temple's holiday Baphomet display in Concord, New Hampshire, invited by agnostic state representative Helen Reed to ensure religious inclusivity. Despite being legally sanctioned, the display was vandalized within hours, underscoring the contrast between Christian ideals of peace and acts of violence. Kelley criticizes the justification of such behavior as "Christian love," labeling it hypocritical and counterproductive.Stephen delves into the motivations behind these actions, questioning whether they stem from fear, ignorance, or privilege. He recalls his own past as a devout believer to empathize with those reacting out of fear, ignorance, or religious indoctrination. Jonathan highlights the irony of Christians attacking a "graven image" while ignoring their nativity scenes, reflecting a selective application of scripture.Stephen expands on the broader human and cultural implications, noting that societal changes, including increased diversity and rapid technological advances, may intensify fear-driven behaviors among those resistant to change. The panel agrees that self-reflection and awareness are key to avoiding similar pitfalls, emphasizing the importance of maturity in navigating these challenges.The conversation closes on a lighter note, with humor about lactose tolerance evolving faster than societal violence intolerance and the prophetic relevance of Alvin Toffler's Future Shock. Despite the heavy themes, the panel appreciates the amusing irony of Christians committing sins to protest a harmless mannequin.The Non-Prophets, Episode 24.01.2 featuring Scott Dickie, Kelley Laughlin, Jonathan Roudabush and Stephen HarderBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-non-prophets--3254964/support.

“The liberals hate my guts because I told the truth about Bonhoeffer,” says Eric Metaxas, author of “Bonhoeffer: Pastor, Martyr, Prophet, Spy.” He joined "The Glenn Beck Podcast" to spread the word about Angel Studios' latest film about the German pastor turned coconspirator in a plot to assassinate Hitler. It's a movie, he says, "Jew-hating lunatics" will love to hate, which is why anti-Semites get free tickets. Eric makes the case that Trump is, in fact, not Hitler and explains why Christians should live out their faith in the public square without fear of being called “Christian Nationalists.” Theocracy, Eric says, is “anti-Christian,” but, like in Nazi Germany, there does come a time when the church should oppose a tyrannical state. Church attendance is down, but Eric suggests that just may be a good thing and that perhaps it's time to consider Bonhoeffer's proposition of “religionless Christianity.” In the end, both Glenn and Eric agree that there is a "warrior side of Jesus,” and “God knows your theology by how you live.”      Sponsors   Get your tickets to "Bonhoeffer" at https://Angel.com/beck.   Relief Factor    Relief Factor can help you live pain-free!
