Podcasts about us elections

In this episode of the Explaining History Podcast, we are joined by David F. Walbert, a veteran voting rights attorney whose new book, Stealing Elections American Style, traces the long, sordid history of contested and corrupted elections from the mid‑19th century to the present day.David's career spans decades of litigation on voting rights cases, beginning in the early 1970s when he moved to Georgia and discovered that despite the Voting Rights Act, African American representation in elected office was staggeringly low. The problem was not voter registration – Black and white registration was near parity – but structural devices that allowed white majorities to control every election outcome.We explore the origins of the "Southern strategy" – the explicit deal struck by Richard Nixon in 1968 with the white South: electoral votes in exchange for Supreme Court justices hostile to civil rights. That strategy, David argues, is the genesis of the ongoing assault on voting rights, culminating in the 1980 Supreme Court decision that nearly shut down vote dilution cases – and the subsequent effort to amend the Voting Rights Act in 1982.The conversation moves to the stolen election of 1876 – perhaps the most flagrant in American history – where Rutherford B. Hayes was awarded the presidency despite losing the popular vote, through the systematic throwing out of Democratic precincts in Louisiana. The parallels to the present are striking.David also discusses the evolution of voter suppression tactics, the spread of white racist ideology from the South to the North, and the alarming infiltration of election denialists into state and local election apparatuses. He warns that the next close election – particularly in the House and Senate – could be decided not by voters, but by partisan politicians in Congress, a prospect that threatens the very foundation of American democracy.Topics covered:David's career litigating voting rights casesThe Voting Rights Act and its amendmentsThe Southern strategy and its consequencesThe stolen election of 1876 (Tilden vs. Hayes)George W. Bush vs. Al Gore in 2000Trump's attempt to steal the 2020 electionThe infiltration of election denialists into state and local officesThe constitutional power of Congress to judge its own electionsThe threat to the 2028 presidential electionDavid F.

Former CIA intelligence analyst and targeter Sarah Adams joins Tudor Dixon for a warning about foreign influence operations targeting American politics and elections. Adams breaks down what she describes as the growing alliance between Democratic Socialists of America (DSA), Islamist political organizations, and political candidates—and explains why Americans should pay closer attention to the organizations, money, and influence networks operating behind campaigns. Tudor and Sarah examine concerns surrounding Michigan Senate candidate Abdul El-Sayed, the Muslim Brotherhood, CAIR Action, campus organizations, and the role social media influencers can play in amplifying foreign-backed narratives—sometimes without even realizing where the messaging originated. They also explore why Adams believes the threat isn't limited to the political left. Could similar influence operations fracture Republicans and conservatives by pushing voters toward third parties or convincing them to stay home? Plus, Adams reveals a stunning vulnerability inside Washington: congressional staffers aren't universally required to undergo background checks. She explains what she witnessed while working on Capitol Hill and why she believes Congress needs stronger counterintelligence safeguards. It's a wide-ranging conversation about foreign influence, election interference, political extremism, national security, and whether Americans recognize the threat before it becomes too powerful to ignore.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Greetings Glocal Citizens! This past spring, a volunteer from the Digital Democracy Project reached out to me about its founder and this week's guest, Ramon Perez. I'd never heard of the project and as a podcast about the many dimensions of citizenship, this was a very necessary conversation exploring innovative ways to enhance citizen participation and reform democracy using technology like AI, blockchain, and mobile voting. As an AI technology executive and US military veteran, Ramon founded the Digital Democracy Project as an accountability system and mobile voting platform that connects voters directly with their legislative representatives to address systemic problems in the electoral system that result in hyper-partisanship and widespread voter alienation. To achieve better outcomes, he believes technology can be used as a catalyst for building a more modern, representative system of government giving greater control directly to voters. #Listenandlearn more as we discuss systemic challenges in US politics and how technology can create a more transparent, accountable, and inclusive democratic process.

Mark Glendening argues free speech in Britain and the West is under increasing internal attack, citing “non-crime hate incidents,” broad Public Order Act powers, online and even private-message prosecutions, and proposals to criminalize non-affirmation of transgender identity under “conversion therapy” laws. He says enforcement is often aimed at the right and anti-transgender feminists, though he notes prosecutions of some left-wing Palestine Action supporters. Glendening traces today's speech controls to cultural strategies developed after Marxism waned, highlighting Gramsci, the Frankfurt School (especially Marcuse), and French postmodernists. He urges electoral pressure campaigns, praises Elon Musk and X, and warns that debanking, digital ID, and Soros-backed regulation threaten liberties.00:00 Meet Mark Glendening01:07 Britain's Free Speech Legacy02:04 Non Crime Hate Incidents04:23 Policing Private Speech06:52 Who Gets Targeted09:29 Conversion Therapy Crackdown16:09 Why the New Left Censors21:21 Three Intellectual Roots28:37 The Sixties Cultural Turn36:12 Words Liberal vs Progressive43:31 Digital ID and Debanking44:46 Fighting Back Politically48:04 Elon Musk and X50:07 US Elections and Internet Speech52:20 Final Thoughts on Libertyhttps://iea.org.uk/tag/marc-glendening/https://iea.org.uk/publications/transgender-ideology-a-new-threat-to-liberal-values/=========Slides, summaries, references, and transcripts of my podcasts: https://tomn.substack.com/p/podcast-summariesMy Linktree: https://linktr.ee/tomanelson1

Dr. Li-Meng Yan w/ The Voice of Dr. Yan – Election integrity deserves the same hard scrutiny that any public threat deserves. If a hostile government is willing to exploit science, public health, media narratives, and cyber operations to weaken the United States, why would anyone assume it would stop at one arena? A regime that treats truth as a weapon will use every opening it can...

Homeland Security Secretary Markwayne Mullin is set to deliver remarks on election security in the next hour, just hours after President Trump delivered a primetime address on potential vulnerabilities in the US election system. The president revealed a series of newly declassified documents he claims were hidden from the American people, which show the election system has major vulnerabilities. However, a review of those documents by CNN has found that these issues were previously known and were included in a 2021 assessment from the US intelligence community.    Learn more about your ad choices.

Promoting last night's primetime speech, President Trump said he'd reveal “really big news” that would “shock you.” Instead, we heard old claims about America's election system with a fresh coat of alarm. CNN has been combing through the hundreds of newly declassified documents from the White House, and my colleagues found they largely address vulnerabilities that have been known for years, and in some cases, they undermine the president's claims.    Learn more about your ad choices.

Jim Carafano of the Heritage Foundation joins the show to unpack the overnight strikes near Bandar Abbas and why President Trump waited so long to respond to Iran's provocations. Carafano makes the case that Trump follows a Reagan-style peace through strength philosophy, weighing every American life before pulling the trigger, and dismisses concerns over presidential safety by praising the Secret Service under this administration. The two also dig into the president's election integrity speech, with Carafano confirming there's serious evidence China, Russia, and North Korea have hacked American election websites and stolen voter data, while blasting officials who limited the president's access to critical intelligence. The takeaway for listeners: protecting America's elections and calling out China's malicious activity isn't optional, it's a matter of national security that transcends politics.

During this segment of The Tara Show, guest host Ryan Wrecker and political historian Rich Rubino discussed the uniqueness of sitting members of Congress transitioning directly to the presidency, identifying Warren G. Harding, John F. Kennedy, and Barack Obama as the only sitting senators, and James A. Garfield as the only sitting House member to do so. The conversation then moved to the 1976 election, with Rubino detailing the primary race between Gerald Ford and Ronald Reagan, as well as Jimmy Carter's close general election victory after facing tight competition in the Southern states. Reflecting on that era, both agreed that while the nation came together during its Bicentennial year, the current political climate in 2026 represents the deep divisions not seen since the late 1960s. Wrecker concluded the discussion with a lighthearted remark about needing an extraordinary event to unify the country before sharing Rubino's website, RichRubino.com, with listeners.

When Martin Luther King the third visited Australia earlier this year, we sat down with him to find out how he has harnessed his father's dream of an oasis of freedom and justice now in the 21st century.  Martin Luther King III was ten years old when his father, the hero of the modern US civil rights movement, was assassinated for his advocacy against racism. King III has picked up his father's fight for a free and equal America, but is his father's dream still possible in 2026? King joins Hamish Macdonald and Kylie Morris to talk about whether the spirit of non-violent resistance can help push back against ICE, his hopes that Trump abides by the law when it comes to the next Presidential election and what he would ask  his father if he were still alive today.

President Donald Trump was able to purge his most vocal critics within the Republican Party, as Americans voted for the congressional candidates who will run in November's midterm elections. One of the most prominent politicians to be unseated was Representative Thomas Massie, who pushed for the release of the Epstein files. The Democratic Party partially released a report about performance that noted “a persistent inability or unwillingness to listen to all voters”. Host Steve Clemons asks former Trump aide Hogan Gidley, and Matt Duss – former adviser to Senator Bernie Sanders – about the challenges facing both parties.

The British Empire didn't die — it evolved. In this episode, host John Odermatt pulls back the curtain on the invisible financial architecture that Britain built after shedding its visible empire: a tightly interlocked system of offshore banking, insurance monopolies, intelligence networks, and manufactured conflict designed to generate perpetual risk premiums. At the center of this system sits the City of London, the Federal Reserve, Lloyd's of London, and the Bank of International Settlements — all tracing back to the same banking families. John walks through how conflicts in Iran, Israel, and the broader Middle East were not accidents but products, engineered to keep Lloyd's premiums high and London's influence alive. He also examines the LIBOR scandal as documented proof of institutional collusion, not theory. Finally, John makes the case that the Trump administration's America First doctrine — from the Venezuela operation to intelligence cutoffs to the Strait of Hormuz insurance play — may represent the first serious attempt in living memory to dismantle this system, and why figures like Tucker Carlson and Marjorie Taylor Greene, despite their "America First" branding, may actually be playing into the very architecture they claim to oppose.

Plus, with the US President making some of his most alarming threats to date, including the warning that an 'entire civilisation' could be at risk, we ask if this is just internet bravado or a genuine threat of war crimes. Amelia Lester joins us to unpack the ten-point peace plan, if the ceasefire will hold and why Trump is now staring down the barrel of impeachment.

The National Security Hour with Col. Mike and Dr. Mike – Maduro's lieutenants are reported to be in charge of producing the vote-counting machines that have been used for fixing U.S. elections, and that operation would never be conducted without the full knowledge of Venezuela's President. How credible a witness Maduro would be against the legion of Democrats and NGOs who ran the...

They are moving towards a CBDC and total control of their population. The US is going to break free from the [CB] enslavement. Trump will be returning the buying power back to the people and its going to shock everyone. The D's just admitted that they were responsible for the shutdown, they received nothing and made the people suffer. Did Trump and team shutdown private flights to keep the [DS] players in this country? Trump pardons the electors and those who were investigating election fraud.

Cash Over €10,000 Becoming "Illegal Tender" in January 2027 What's true: Starting in summer 2027 (not precisely January), there will be an EU-wide limit on cash payments for goods and services: no more than €10,000 per transaction (or linked transactions). This applies across all 27 member states, though countries can set lower thresholds if they want (e.g., some already have limits around €1,000–€3,000). The goal is to curb illicit cash flows used for crime. What's false: Cash itself doesn't become "illegal tender"—you can still hold unlimited euros in cash, withdraw it from banks, or use it for smaller payments without issue. The restriction is only on using cash to pay for things above the limit (e.g., you couldn't buy a €15,000 car in cash without switching to wire transfer or card). Violators face fines or penalties, but it's not a blanket criminalization of cash holdings. This builds on existing rules but standardizes them EU-wide for the first time. 2. Every Bitcoin Needing "Government Permission" What's true: The rules ban anonymous crypto-asset accounts or wallets held through service providers (e.g., exchanges like Binance). Crypto firms must perform customer due diligence (CDD)—verifying identities—for any accounts they manage, similar to how banks already handle fiat accounts. Privacy-focused coins (e.g., Monero, Zcash) and unhosted (self-custodied) wallets face extra scrutiny if used for high-risk activities, and anonymous services will be prohibited. What's false: There's no requirement for "government permission" to own or transfer individual Bitcoins (or any crypto). You can still hold Bitcoin in a personal wallet, mine it, or peer-to-peer trade it without approval, as long as it's not through a regulated service that demands KYC (know-your-customer) checks. This ties into the broader Markets in Crypto-Assets (MiCA) regulation (effective 2024–2026), which licenses crypto platforms but doesn't micromanage personal holdings. The "permission" angle misrepresents standard AML checks, which apply to businesses handling crypto, not everyday users. 3. Every Transaction Becoming a "Datapoint in Brussels' Surveillance Grid" What's true: Financial institutions (banks, payment providers, crypto exchanges) must report suspicious transactions to national Financial Intelligence Units (FIUs), which share data via a new EU-level Anti-Money Laundering Authority (AMLA) based in Frankfurt (not Brussels). CDD kicks in for occasional transactions over €10,000, and high-risk activities (e.g., complex/large transfers) get extra monitoring. Records must be kept for 5 years. What's false: Not every transaction is tracked or reported—only suspicious ones, high-value occasional deals, or those flagged under risk-based rules. Everyday purchases (e.g.,
