Are Jewish authors being pushed out of mainstream publishing?

She and Karol examine the BDS movement, identity politics, political extremism, free speech, and why Rosenheck believes reclaiming the political center is essential to rebuilding a healthier society.

Could America be just one generation away from losing its freedom? Former U.S. Army Special Forces veteran, author, and popular X personality C.T. Hill, better known as Green Beret Naptime, joins Karol Markowicz for a fascinating conversation about military service, American liberty, the dangers of tyranny, and his new military thriller, The Remnant War: Ashes of the Eagle, Book One.

Are Americans getting the truth about Iran, Hamas, and the Middle East—or are dangerous narratives shaping what we believe?
