    In the one-hundred-and-eightieth episode, we take another look at the Slippery Slope Fallacy, starting with Trump warning about Biden's border policy, and the Democrat's approach to the second amendment, followed by Dan Bongino aligning mask mandates with taking your children away.In Mark's British Politics Corner, we look at Kemi Badenoch decrying woke archaeology, Nigel Farage arguing against banning smoking in public places, then Kemi again warning about asylum seekers destroying roads.In the Fallacy in the Wild section, we check out examples from Winter, Spring, Summer and Fall, Dawson's Creek, and Man on the Inside.Jim and Mark go head to head in Fake News, the game in which Mark has to guess which one of three Trump quotes Jim made up.Then we talk about Trump's Alaska meeting with Putin.And finally, we round up some of the other crazy Trump stories from the past week.The full show notes for this episode can be found at https://fallacioustrump.com/ft180 You can contact the guys at pod@fallacioustrump.com, on BlueSky @FallaciousTrump, Discord at fallacioustrump.com/discord or facebook at facebook.com/groups/fallacioustrumpAnd you can buy our T-shirts here: https://fallacioustrump.com/teeSupport this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/fallacious-trump/donationsAdvertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy

    Tommy & Ben dig into the FBI's raid on John Bolton and how Pete Hegseth's firing of the head of the Defense Intelligence Agency fits into Trump's ongoing ideological purges of the US intelligence community. They discuss Israel's criminal “double tap” strike on Gaza's Nasser Hospital, The Free Press's sanctimonious reaction to criticism of their reporting about starvation in Gaza, Israeli Prime Minister Bibi Netanyahu's constant moving of the goalposts on a ceasefire deal, why Trump's meeting South Korean president Lee Jae Myung was humiliating for America, Trump's lies and delusions about being a peacemaker, the latest on Iran negotiations, why Australia expelled Iranian diplomats, and Putin's answer to Eurovision. Then, Tommy speaks with Franklin Nossiter, Sahel Analyst at the International Crisis Group, about the complex dynamics in a region where military juntas, jihadists, and foreign powers are all jostling for influence.For a closed-captioned version of this episode, click here.

    On this edition of Parallax Views, journalist and author Daniel Lazare, author of The Frozen Republic: How the Constitution is Paralyzing Democracy, joins the show to dissect the forces behind Trumpism and the broader American political landscape. They explore why Lazare believes Trump is not a fascist, despite popular claims, and what his rise reveals about the collapse of liberal institutions. This does not, however, mean that Lazare think Trump is benign. Nor is he claiming that Trump isn't authoritarian. But the analysis can't of Trump, he argues, can't claim that the phenomena of Trumpism is alien to America. Lazare explains how the U.S. Constitution, far from being inherently protective of democracy, contains authoritarian mechanisms that have enabled the concentration of power. The conversation also delves into Trump's foreign policy, drawing parallels with Putin's consolidation of power and the revival of Teddy Roosevelt's “Big Stick” approach in a multipolar world. Lazare analyzes how neoliberal elites and cultural movements intended to strengthen their position have inadvertently fueled working-class resentment, contributing to Trump's appeal. This episode is a deep dive into the structural forces shaping contemporary American politics, the myths of “alien fascism,” and the real threats to democracy that come from within.

    In Donald Trump's perverse ambition to win the Nobel Peace Prize, he is citing his supposed diplomatic victories in ending six conflicts: Armenia-Azerbaijan, Congo-Rwanda, Israel-Iran, India-Pakistan, Thailand-Cambodia and Egypt-Ethiopia. In Episode 292 of the CounterVortex podcast, Bill Weinberg examines each of these examples, and breaks down how claims to have won "peace" are either extremely overstated or (more often) total Orwellian jive. The implication that Russia-Ukraine will be next, as Putin escalates his aggression, puts a hideous crown on the irony.

    Cerramos otra temporada veraniega con historias que demuestran que lo extraño se ha vuelto norma. Primero, desentrañamos el misterioso patrón del COVID estival: cinco años consecutivos de repuntes veraniegos con puntualidad suiza, desde la llegada de la variante "Frankenstein" hasta las explicaciones científicas que van más allá de la simple casualidad. Después, nos sumergimos en el escándalo que ha sacudido el deporte mundial: atletas dopados convertidos en espías del FBI, una guerra geopolítica entre agencias antidopaje que ha puesto patas arriba todo lo que creíamos saber sobre el juego limpio. Y culminamos con el encuentro secreto entre Trump y Putin en Alaska que duró apenas dos horas y media, pero que dejó a todo el equipo estadounidense "cenizo y aterrorizado" según los testigos. ¿Qué se dijo en esa sala blindada para provocar tal pánico? Mientras el verano llega a su fin, estas historias nos recuerdan que en los tiempos extraños que vivimos, la realidad supera cualquier ficción.

    On Friday's Mark Levin Show, John Bolton may be in serious trouble. Why would the timing of this raid on Bolton's house be chilling? Suddenly Democrats are special pleaders for Bolton and now we have to hear from the conspiracy theorists. The question isn't why the Trump administration is looking into Bolton or the timing of it; the question is why did the Biden administration shut down any investigation into him without explanation? Also, the key revelations in the interview with Ghislaine Maxwell conducted by Deputy AG Todd Blanche includes no list of names, no evidence implicating Trump in anything improper, and denials that Jeffrey Epstein was a spy for Israel. What will the conspiracy theorists and grifters do now? They'll claim a massive cover-up without any real endgame, merely to keep audiences engaged. Later, Rep Chip Roy calls in to announce his run for Texas Attorney General. Roy also praises Texas for aggressively redistricting to gain more Republican seats, countering Democratic gerrymandering in states like California, Illinois, and Massachusetts. Afterward, Vladimir Putin is a madman, butcher, and killer who's responsible for invading Ukraine, committing atrocities like kidnapping children and brutalizing civilians, and showing no intent to end the war. But there's nobody better to pressure Putin than Trump.

    In this episode of The Power Vertical Podcast, host Brian Whitmore speaks with Anton Shekhovtsov, director of the Centre for Democratic Integrity in Vienna and author of Towers of Europa, about Vladimir Putin's eliminationist war against Ukraine and his quest for “symbolic immortality.” They discuss how ideology, historical revisionism, and the dehumanization of Ukrainians shape the Kremlin's motivations, and why understanding Putin's drive for symbolic immortality is key to grasping the genocidal nature of the war. The conversation also explores evolving Russian political myths, the manipulation of culture and history, and what Europe must do to meet the security challenges of a rapidly changing world order.

    In this urgent satsang, Shunyamurti shares that he received the message that we are at the moment depicted in the Bhagavad Gita, when Arjuna understands and accepts that he must fight the battle he dreads, knowing it will destroy civilization. Reflecting on the aftermath of the failed Putin–Trump summit in Alaska, in the context of the imminent collapse of Western hegemony, and the fractal nature of reality—meaning that all of us face such a situation in our own lives as well— Shunya explains that the only solution is taking refuge with God. The grace of the Supreme Self alone will enable us to face fearlessly the events to come. Our spiritual duty is to radiate the salvific light of truth, peace, and divine love to all souls in our dying world.

    La caída de la Unión Soviética no fue sólo el colapso de un sistema político, sino también el derrumbe de una utopía que había marcado el siglo XX con símbolos, mitos y promesas de justicia social. Tras décadas de traumas —como los gulags, el Holodomor, la represión en Europa del Este y la guerra de Afganistán—, el desencanto ético y existencial debilitó al régimen desde dentro. A inicios de los años noventa, la resistencia pacífica en Vilna y la independencia de Ucrania mostraron las grietas irreversibles, mientras en Moscú el fallido golpe de Estado de 1991 y la renuncia de Gorbachov sellaron el fin de la URSS. De ese vacío emergió la Rusia de Putin, que sobre la base de un pacto con los oligarcas, el auge energético y una narrativa nacionalista e histórica, buscó reconstruir el orgullo perdido y proyectarse como una potencia global alternativa a Occidente.

    Dr. JB Hixson Today Mary welcomes back JB Hixson to chat about the gospel - what it is, and what it isn't. This week, President Trump expressed the idea that if he is able to settle the score between Putin and Zelenskyy and thereby save lives, wouldn't that be enough to get into heaven? Back in 2016, Trump met with 1000 evangelicals in New York, presumably to secure the evangelical vote. Since then he has surrounded himself with various believers of different stripes, and somehow evangelicals conclude that Trump is a true believer. Of course, those with our wits about us know that is not a reasonable conclusion. The math is all wrong. We discuss the everlasting gospel in depth and the grace that surrounds it - and then we go through a list of things that are presented as representing the true gospel but in truth are counterfeits. How can we know the fake gospels? How can the church be armed with the ways to combat these insidious fakes?

    "I have friends everywhere." In this special episode, we're joined by Tony Gilroy, the creative force behind the electrifying Star Wars series Andor. Critics and activists on the frontlines in America have praised Andor for its powerful portrayal of resistance, and with Season 2 up for 14 Emmy Awards, it's clear this is no ordinary space opera. Gilroy's vision grounds the story in centuries of history, showing us what it means to resist empire in all its brutality. Andor is an urgent guide for Americans today.  For more than three decades, Gilroy has been shaping modern cinema with blockbusters and fearless storytelling. He gave us Rogue One: A Star Wars Story, and wrote and directed the critically acclaimed political thriller Michael Clayton, which earned him Oscar nominations for both screenplay and direction. His credits include Armageddon and the first four entries of the Bourne series (in which he directed the fourth), Devil's Advocate, Dolores Claiborne, The Cutting Edge, State of Play, and many, many other films.  The son of World War II veteran and Tony and Pulitzer-winning playwright and filmmaker Frank Gilroy, and brother to acclaimed film editor John Gilroy and Oscar-nominated writer-director Dan Gilroy (an Emmy-nominated writer on Andor), Tony Gilroy doesn't just tell stories: he builds immersive worlds where power, corruption, and resistance collide, worlds that help us make sense of our own. We're thrilled to welcome him to Gaslit Nation to discuss this dark chapter in America's history and, through his art, remind us of the courage it takes to stand and fight back. For Gaslit Nation listeners who want the full breakdown of the convicted felon/war criminal distraction circus and what comes next for the Free World, our latest salon digs into the Putin-Trump gaslighting sideshow in Alaska and how the war can actually end. You can watch the recording at Patreon.com/Gaslit. Thank you to everyone who makes our independent journalism possible! Don't miss Monday's salon at 4pm ET, only on Patreon, where we'll dive into two powerful films about resisting dictatorship: The Lives of Others and I'm Still Here.  The Lives of Others tells the haunting story of artists defying the East German Stasi, while I'm Still Here tells the story of a woman whose husband is disappeared by Brazil's military dictatorship in the 1970s, and how she transforms her country for the better.  These two films are reminders that light will always defeat darkness: it's just a matter of time, and collective courage and defiance.    Want to enjoy Gaslit Nation ad-free?

    On Tuesday's Mark Levin Show, President Donald Trump calls into the show and discusses transforming the U.S. from a dead country under President Biden to the hottest nation globally, as affirmed by world leaders. Trump describes handling the Russia-Ukraine conflict through instinct rather than rigid processes, emphasizing his success in securing hostage releases without concessions. He praises PM Benjamin Netanyahu as a war hero amid legal challenges and recounts authorizing a precise military strike on Iran's nuclear facility, which pilots had prepared for over 22 years, preventing imminent nuclear weapon development. Furthermore, our media is deeply flawed, and Susan Rice is no exception as she criticizes Trump for not securing a cease-fire agreement. However, Trump is addressing a much larger issue that extends beyond just a cease-fire. European leaders, along with Zelensky and Putin, will not agree to a deal unless it meets their standards. It's noteworthy that Trump was able to facilitate discussions between Zelensky and Putin, a feat that Biden and many previous presidents would never have achieved. Also, Rep. Gregory Meeks and Rev. Al Sharpton have attacked Trump with "taking over" cities using the National Guard, effectively seizing control of significant African American neighborhoods and exploiting them. They even labeled Trump as "Jim Crow 2.0," a truly reprehensible accusation. However, many in Washington DC, including members of the African American community, are recognizing the need for safety and are thankful that the National Guard was present. With crime rampant in Washington DC and numerous other cities, this is a crucial part of Trump's strategy to restore safety and make these cities safe again. Learn more about your ad choices.
