The vast difference between the callously glib superficiality of conservative stars like Allie Beth Stuckey and the heartfelt, forceful analysis of young pro-Palestinian voices has convinced me that the die is cast.

Subscribe to Freedom First Network on Rumble to watch all of our shows LIVE. As Israel’s violent conflict in Gaza dominates the news, the term “Zionism” has become a commonplace in discussion. Most recently, for instance, the United States House of Representatives passed measures by wide margins affirming Zionist principles and denouncing anti-Zionism as antisemitism. In this episode...

Radioactive, heated, and usually irrational, the public conversation about Israel and her endless conflicts with neighbors has been half tragedy and half farce.

This is the maiden voyage of a show celebrating the long-lost values of the mid-twentieth century Democratic party. José Vasco, born into a hardcore Democratic family, hit a roadblock when the party seemed to abandon its working-class concerns and instead got mired in neoliberal identity politics. José then made a jump to conservative Republicans for over a decade,...
