We have a very special show this week -- starting with a great hour-long conversation with South Africa's Gareth Cliff, a radio and podcasting host who is one of the most insightful observers of America's political scene from abroad.
Gareth offers a unique perspective on the Mar-a-Lago raid; on the electricity shortage; and also -- you're going to want to hear this -- on the student loan bailout. He also talks about the prospects for political change in South Africa.
Next, we discuss the student loan bailout -- which has proven to be surprisingly unpopular, given that it's essentially free money. It turns out that Americans care about responsibility and fairness -- even above short-term self-interest.
Special guests:
Gareth Cliff - broadcaster and podcaster from CliffCentral.com
Noah Weinrich - spokesperson for Heritage Action, on the student loan bailout
John Carney - Breitbart News financial editor on the student loan bailout
Michael McAdams - NRCC comms director, on prospects for the midterms
Lee Smith - author of The Plot Against the President, on Mar-a-Lago raid
Paris Dennard - consultant and pundit, on midterms and Rayshard Brooks

This week's portion is the last of the month of Av -- also known as Menachem (Comforter) Av -- which begins in mourning and ends in celebration and anticipation of the New Year and the process of repentance and renewal.
In a similar vein, the portion features Moses offering the Israelites a choice between a blessing and a curse. They are masters of their own fates: if they obey God's commandments, they receive the blessings -- and vice versa.
The key commandment is to reject idol worship. There is said to be something magnetic about the practice of worshiping idols in the new land, such that it would be constant moral battle, both individually and collectively, in the land.
Nowadays, according to Jewish tradition, humanity has lost the urge for idol worship (and the antidote, which is divine prophecy) -- but there are several near substitutes, such as lust or excessive appetites for worldly pleasures.
We are wired for compulsive behaviors, bad habits, and even addictions. These ...
