237 MAGA is NOT a CULT - from a former religious cult member

In Live Show 163 I debunked how MAGA is a cult as it fails to fit both Robert J. Lifton's historic cult criteria points and my experience in the religious cult Adidam. I share an article from Salon by someone else from Adiam chiming in on this accusation to bring a different point of view to the discussion,. Live 7/4/2026.

233 Media Manipulating You! Tulsi Gabbard is a distraction from Fauci

Tulsi Gabbard announced her resignation from the Trump administration, only to leave by dropping controversial info about Dr. Fauci and Covid. The response was the media suddenly revealed story after story about her connections to guru Chris Butler, showing evidence of corruption/compromise, and evidence of Trump's continuing failures. Except the info was old. I reported 2 years on my podcast about her connections to him, citing numerous sources that already blew her out of the water. I even backtracked and did an apology episode ... last year. While my original show cited a very well research podcast that was already a few years old. And, it was citing revelations about her discussed as early as when she was a teenager. So, these revelations about her coming out this week are old, while the hit pieces lack half the depth of anything I cited and have read about in the past. So, it feels like this was done to make sure nobody is talking about Fauci. So, we're being manipulated. We're being distracted! Talking about old news like its a revelation right when huge information goes public is nothing but a distraction. Live 6/25/2026. This podcast was a 2025 People's Choice Podcast Award nominee.
