I will share my thoughts about American politics, as well as current events in Israel and elsewhere, based on my experiences in the U.S., South Africa, and the Middle East. I will also discuss books and popular culture from the perspective of a somewhat libertarian, religiously observant conservative living in California. I will also share art and ideas that I find useful and helpful, and link to my content at Breitbart News, Amazon, and elsewhere.

Breitbart News Sunday: Show rundown (March 27, 2022)

There are three major news themes this week:

1. Ukraine, where President Joe Biden has managed to edge precariously close to World War III with a series of gaffes -- first on chemical weapons, then on sending U.S. troops into Ukraine, and then on regime change in Russia;

2. The confirmation of Judge Ketanji Brown Jackson, which may be in jeopardy after she stumbled in explaining her lenient sentences for child pornography offenders, and could not provide a definition of the word "woman";

3. Inflation, which continues to grow worse, as state governments pledge cash rebates for rising gas prices and Biden has no solutions to offer, other than allowing the Federal Reserve to raise interest rates slowly -- perhaps too slowly.

We'll discuss it all, with special guests:

Rabbi Shmuley Boteach -- on Ukraine and the human rights challenge
Alan Dershowitz -- on Ketanji Brown Jackson
Jessica Vaugn -- on inflation, the economy, and the ongoing culture war

This is what is left of my special place in the forest

Burned, then covered in mudslides and rockslides. The river still flows through it. But we have lost so much. I have to believe the spirit still lives on.

Breitbart News Sunday; show rundown (October 5, 2025)

Today's episode is devoted to the second anniversary of the October 7 terror attacks. It was produced before the announcement of a ceasefire deal, yet remains current & relevant.

Please listen, and #bringthemhome.

Weekly Torah reading: Ha'azinu (Deuteronomy 32:1-52)

This week's portion is a beautiful poem, containing the Covenant between God and the people of Israel. But given the breaking news that Hamas may actually have agreed to release all of the Israeli hostages, I will devote my remarks to that.

One hopes it is true; if so, it makes this week's additional reading, from II Samuel 22, even more relevant: David's song of praise to the Lord for delivering him from the hand of his enemies.

"18 He rescued me from my powerful enemy,
from my foes, who were too strong for me.
19 They confronted me in the day of my disaster,
but the Lord was my support."

  • John Carney - Breitbart News financial editor, on the upcoming jobs report
  • Jerome Hudson - Breitbart News entertainment editor, on the Kimmel fallout
