episode Is $32 Million To Take Out Massie An Act Of War? artwork

Is $32 Million To Take Out Massie An Act Of War?

The Israel lobby just spent $32 million to remove Thomas Massie from Congress. AIPAC bragged about it on X within hours. A sitting Defense Secretary flew to Kentucky to campaign against him — federal law be damned. And here's the kicker: the three most expensive House primaries in US history were all decided by the same foreign lobby, all against members who criticized Israel. Matt and CJ work through the central question: at what point does this stop being lobbying and start being an act of war? Plus: the generational collapse in support for Israel (75% to 40% among under-30 Republicans), the IHRA laws now embedded in 38 states, Mark Levin's "Nazis and jihadis" rant, the Epstein angle, the Charlie Kirk timing, the "political dark matter" framework for understanding Trump's 180s — and why Americans killing COVID tyranny by refusing to comply is the template for what comes next.

episode The Most Orwellian War in Modern History | CJ Killmer Returns artwork

The Most Orwellian War in Modern History | CJ Killmer Returns

CJ Killmer of the Dangerous History Podcast is back after a brutal few months, and we walk through where the United States actually stands two and a half months into the war with Iran. The blockade is theater. Iran controls the Strait of Hormuz. Every justification the administration has given has shifted, and every objective they set is unreachable. Trump is in Beijing this week asking Xi for help on a war he says he doesn't need help with. CJ takes us back to 1948 and walks the full history of the Israel lobby's grip on American foreign policy. Truman's reelection calculation. Eisenhower at Suez. Kennedy on Israeli nukes. Reagan's one and only pushback. Carter's Camp David walkback. Why Netanyahu's time preference is shorter than Trump's term. We get into the Massie primary, the Tucker apology, the Charlie Kirk void, the campaign promises Trump has run against, and why the midterms are going to cream Republicans.

episode The US-Iran Deal Trump Knows He Has to Take artwork

The US-Iran Deal Trump Knows He Has to Take

Iran sent its response to the United States this weekend. Trump posted "TOTALLY UNACCEPTABLE" on Truth Social. He knows what the deal is going to look like. So does anyone willing to look at the receipts. The Strait of Hormuz belongs to Iran. The blockade is theater. The polling at home is the worst any wartime president has ever seen. Gas is climbing toward five dollars and the midterms are six months away. This episode walks through what's actually on the table, what's actually happening at the Strait, and why Lebanon is the piece this whole thing turns on. Israel went to war to topple Iran. Israel couldn't. So Netanyahu pivoted to taking land — Gaza, the West Bank, southern Lebanon. The trade Trump is negotiating right now is whether the United States keeps providing the cover. Plus the four pressure points crushing Trump's clock at home, the damage to American credibility abroad, and what to watch in the next two weeks. CHAPTERS * 0:00 — Trump Knows * 2:00 — What's Actually on the Table * 9:00 — The Strait, the Blockade, and the Geography Problem * 17:00 — Lebanon Is the Real Trade * 27:00 — Why Trump's Clock Is Running Out * 37:00 — The View From Outside * 45:00 — What Comes Next, and the Close WHAT THIS EPISODE COVERS * The 14-point US Memorandum of Understanding and Iran's counterproposal * Why the US naval blockade of Iranian ports is theater * The Lebanon-as-carrot trade between Trump and Netanyahu * The third round of direct Israel-Lebanon talks at the State Department this Wednesday and Thursday * The Trump-Xi summit in Beijing the same days * The Massie primary in Kentucky * The five signals to watch over the next two weeks

episode Foreign Lobbyists Have Built a Legal System to Bypass the First Amendment artwork

Foreign Lobbyists Have Built a Legal System to Bypass the First Amendment

Florida Governor Ron DeSantis has flown to Jerusalem multiple times to sign Florida laws on foreign soil. He's not the only one. Thirty-eight US states have adopted the IHRA framework — a definition of antisemitism whose own author, Kenneth Stern, has been telling Congress for years is being weaponized to silence political speech about a foreign government. This episode walks through what's actually been built. The state laws. The federal Title VI enforcement wave. The lobbying network — Joseph Sabag, Eugene Kontorovich, Richard Goldberg, the Brandeis Center, the Combat Antisemitism Movement, ALEC. The federal court rulings calling it viewpoint discrimination and a smokescreen for ideologically-motivated assault. The Americans already hurt — Mahmoud Khalil, who missed the birth of his first child during 104 days in a Louisiana detention facility for activities the State Department's own memo described as "otherwise lawful." Harvard, hit with a $2.2 billion funding freeze before a federal judge struck it down. Then the foreign comparison. The United Kingdom: thirty arrests per day for online speech. Germany: five years in prison proposed for a phrase. France: criminal prosecutions for calling consumer boycotts. The destination is named, and the only thing standing between the apparatus already built here and the cases unfolding there is the First Amendment — which the architects know they cannot beat in a fair fight. If free speech falls, no other right is safe. This is a documentation of what has been built, who built it, who it serves, and what it has already cost. CHAPTERS: 00:00 — DeSantis in Jerusalem 05:00 — What Free Speech Actually Is 14:00 — The IHRA Tool 22:00 — Florida Step by Step 33:00 — Who Built It 46:00 — Are These Laws Doing Damage? 51:00 — Where This Leads

episode The SPLC Funded the Klan. Then Tripled Its Revenue. artwork

The SPLC Funded the Klan. Then Tripled Its Revenue.

The Southern Poverty Law Center was just indicted by a federal grand jury for fraud, money laundering, and paying the people it told its donors it was fighting. A Klan-affiliated informant got over a million dollars. The Unite the Right coordinator got $270,000. The money moved through shell companies with names like "Fox Photography" and "Rare Books Warehouse." And in the fiscal year after Charlottesville — the rally their paid informant helped coordinate — SPLC donations jumped from $50 million to $132 million. But the SPLC is not the story. The SPLC is the clearest possible view of a much bigger machine. In this episode, Matt Carano walks through three cases of the same structural model operating at three different scales: — The SPLC and the manufactured domestic extremism it fundraises off of — The National Endowment for Democracy, USAID, and the US regime change apparatus that replaced what the CIA used to do covertly — with Ukraine 2013–14 as the worked example — Benjamin Netanyahu's decade-long strategy of propping up Hamas to prevent a Palestinian state, in his own words One machine. Three scales. The threat is the product.

En fantastisk app med et enormt stort udvalg af spændende podcasts. Podimo formår virkelig at lave godt indhold, der takler de lidt mere svære emner. At der så også er lydbøger oveni til en billig pris, gør at det er blevet min favorit app.

Rigtig god tjeneste med gode eksklusive podcasts og derudover et kæmpe udvalg af podcasts og lydbøger. Kan varmt anbefales, om ikke andet så udelukkende pga Dårligdommerne, Klovn podcast, Hakkedrengene og Han duo 😁 👍
Podimo er blevet uundværlig! Til lange bilture, hverdagen, rengøringen og i det hele taget, når man trænger til lidt adspredelse.
