In this episode, Seth Leibsohn hosts Josh Hammer, discussing Hammer's new book, "Israel and Civilization: The Fate of the Jewish Nation and The Destiny of the West." Hammer argues that the disproportionate attention on Israel and the Jewish people stems from their foundational role in Western civilization, tracing back to biblical times, and emphasizes the need for a strong Jewish-Christian alliance to defend these values against those seeking to undermine them.

“There are no normal Democrat men,” Clay Travis observed about a recent campaign video from Abdul El-Sayed. The Michigan Democrat wants to ensure that.

El-Sayed’s campaign produced a “Blue’s Clues” themed video to promote mail-in voting. It reveals something profound about the contempt with which El-Sayed and Marxists see voters and citizens in a free society.

Marxists infantilize everyone as part of their claim to power. The proletariat cannot be trusted to act in their own interests, which is why private property must be abolished and the means of production seized. This is a pure form of Marxist expression.

The Democratic Socialist platform reeks with infantilization. Don’t like paying your bills? The government will do it. Don’t like to work? The government will feed you. Don’t want to pay rent? The government will seize property and shelter you—as the Marxists in charge see fit to do so.

American voters need to see this for what it is: Contempt for people who make their own choices. Call this video what it is—Reds’ Clues.

August 10, Massachusetts became the 11th state in the union to pass legislation with absolutely no limits on abortion.

Democratic Governor Maura Healey hosted a signing ceremony and a lengthy press conference.

We need to understand what we’re talking about here: There’s a basic worldview collision between the culture of life and the culture of death. In the culture of life, every single human life is respected from the point of fertilization until natural death, making something like abortion not only wrong, but morally unthinkable.

The culture of death is so absolutely enraptured with personal autonomy that it can be used to deny or even take the life of others.

Just days before Governor Healy signed this radical abortion legislation, she signed a Family Welfare Act that included expansions for child welfare in Massachusetts. The governor said then, and I quote, "Every child deserves the opportunity to grow up safe, supported, and set up to succeed." Understand this, she actually means every child outside the womb and no child inside the womb.

This is just haunting.

A furor erupted in the WNBA recently, after Indiana Fever player Sophie Cunningham called it “common sense” to ban transgender athletes from competing in women’s sports.

The league’s collective bargaining agreement says that only women are eligible to play in the WNBA—but never defines what a “woman” is. The commissioner calls the issue “nuanced,” while the players association calls for diversity and inclusion.

Now they’re being taken at their word. Two former NBA players say they’ll declare for the 2027 WNBA draft—exposing the absurdity of rules that refuse to acknowledge biological reality.

The WNBA has brought all this on itself. It’s time to define “woman” — or risk sidelining female athletes in the league created specifically for them.

There’s nothing “nuanced” about protecting women’s sports. It requires only courage, clarity, and plain common sense.
