The star of the Show Trial has been Republican Liz Cheney, whom the Democrats have used to make their principal case against Donald Trump. Media have praised her for this act of self-sacrifice, noting that she is likely to lose her seat in Congress for her trouble.
So, too, is fellow committee Republican Adam Kinzinger. But he's not being ousted by the voters. Rather, Illinois Democrats rewarded him for his service by drawing him out of his own district.
There are occasionally politicians who do the right thing at the cost of their own careers. That is not the case with Cheney. She has done the wrong thing, not by opposing Trump but by participating in a sham process, a kangaroo court.
And she is going to lose her seat because she is doing nothing about what voters actually care about. She is not holding the Biden administration accountable for its failures. She is basically using her seat to carry out a family political crusade.
She will find herself a cushy job as a lobbyist, pundit, or professor. She knows she is feathering her nest every time she attacks Trump. She is no martyr. She is the archetype of the unprincipled politician with too much power.
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.

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."
So much to focus on this week -- and much breaking news. A peace deal in the Middle East, perhaps? Eric Adams dropping out of the mayor's race? And a looming shutdown as Democrats push their demands beyond absurdity.
Special guests:
- Bradley Jaye - Breitbart News congressional correspondent, on the shutdown
- John Carney - Breitbart News financial editor, on the upcoming jobs report
- Jerome Hudson - Breitbart News entertainment editor, on the Kimmel fallout
- Frances Martel - Breitbart News foreign editor, on the UN and Gaza talks
- Matisyahu - award-winning reggae artist, on his new album, "Ancient Child"
