Democrats are trying to portray the midterm election as a referendum on democracy -- casting themselves as the great defenders thereof.
It is beyond obvious by now: Democrats reject the outcome of any democratic election that they lose. The entire "Russia collusion" conspiracy theory consumed the Democratic Party for years -- because they reject democracy.
But there's something even more nefarious going on. When Americans use the term "democracy," we don't simply refer to the act of voting. We also mean the system of rights that protects individuals from abuse by the majority, as well as the checks and balances that stop the government from exceeding its power.
And that's where Democrats have been actively destroying democracy, as we know it, for more than a decade -- a project that accelerated under Barack Obama and has continued since then, assisted by the so-called Deep State.
The Mar-a-Lago raid is the latest example, but there are so many others. Even the January 6 Committee, ostensibly investigating an "assault on democracy," abrogated the rights of the minority and the witnesses in its partisan zeal.
The Democratic Party, like left-wing parties worldwide, cares more about the outcomes it seeks -- all related to economic redistribution -- than the process through which decisions are meant to be made (see the student loan bailout).
The Democratic Party is the single greatest threat to democracy in America today, because it rejects the founding principles of the country and is killing liberties that were once taken for granted.
So, yes, democracy is on the ballot.
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"
