Ep. 245: The resistance rabbit hole and the end of democracy

2026/02/05

Legitimizing Nazi comparisons to ICE agents and treating the debate about illegal immigration as akin to a fight against fascism cannot be separated from the rise of left-wing antisemitism.

2026/02/03

The president’s Board of Peace won’t solve the Gaza problem, though it does have the potential to help Washington shatter a destructive international establishment.

Ep. 239: The University of Pennsylvania is gaslighting the courts on antisemitism

2026/02/03

The Ivy League school is falsely claiming that it is standing up for Jews by stonewalling the Trump administration’s efforts to punish blatant hatred on campus since Oct. 7.

Ep. 244: Trump shouldn’t fall into the Iran negotiations trap

2026/02/03

Tehran’s Islamist despots can’t be trusted to abide by agreements. Throwing them a lifeline, which they will use to go on spreading death and terror, would be a major blunder.

Ep. 243: Stop chasing after the Saudis to join the Abraham Accords

2026/02/02

Now that they’ve stopped worrying about an Iranian bomb, Riyadh is making clear that it will never recognize the State of Israel. It was never going to be worth the price anyway.

Ep. 242: Can Bari Weiss save the mainstream media from woke journalists?

2026/01/29

The “Free Press” founder is under fire for attempting to steer “CBS News” back toward the center. Those who think their job is to indoctrinate audiences will never forgive her.

Ep. 241: Don’t mourn the Holocaust while supporting the genocide of living Jews

2026/01/27

Has education failed? Reject programs and ceremonies that enable false analogies and allow fashionable opinion to demonize Israel and legitimize antisemitism.

Ep. 238: From Greenland to Israel: What America should expect from allies

2026/01/21

President Trump’s demand that Denmark sell the Arctic land mass is dismissed as megalomania. That said, Europe’s dependence on America raises questions about NATO.

Ep. 237: Can Josh Shapiro rescue the Democratic Party from left-wing antisemitism?

2026/01/21

The Pennsylvania governor’s shocking story about Kamala Harris’s aides asking him if he was an Israeli double agent is the first shot fired in a battle to save his party’s soul.

Ep. 236: Trump deserves ‘trust’ on Gaza and Iran, not blind faith

2026/01/18

The president’s tough talk won’t suffice if the administration passes on an opportunity to topple the mullahs and chooses to let Hamas survive.

Ep. 235: Why do they march for Gaza, but not Iran?

2026/01/15

The movement that turned out en masse to demonize the State of Israel for defending itself is uninterested in the slaughter of Iranians. Maybe it’s because they can’t blame it on the Jews.

Ep. 234: Can Trump avoid Obama’s Tehran blunders?

2026/01/14

Vice President JD Vance is leading efforts to persuade the president to appease Tehran rather than confront it. America has been down that disastrous road before.

Ep. 233: Don’t invoke the Holocaust in debate about ICE

2026/01/13

Liberal Jews are rallying behind the partisan effort to use the death of Renee Good to end the enforcement of immigration laws. That isn’t defending Jewish interests or values.

Ep. 232: Concern about antisemitism on the right isn’t a plot against Vance

2026/01/11

The vice president won’t distance himself from a dogmatic faction of Jew-haters led by Tucker Carlson. That’s why some Republicans are drawing conclusions about him.

Ep. 231: What normalizing antisemitism looks like

2026/01/09

If Mamdani’s bigotry and obsessive hate of Israel don’t seem to bother most New Yorkers and even many Jews, then it illustrates how prejudice has become mainstreamed.
