1. We have moved to "green" energy before it could make up for the loss in fossil fuel energy and nuclear energy (which is also "green" in emissions terms).
2. The lack of energy is imposing hardship on residents and businesses in the form of shortages, higher prices, and lack of reliability.
3. We are about to mandate electric vehicles at a time when we are also telling people not to charge their electric vehicles at certain times of day due to electricity shortages.
4. Ostensibly, we are going to find a way to expand the grid's capacity by 30% in the next 13 years without building new fossil fuel or nuclear plants, i.e. relying on solar and wind, and while accommodating for the loss of several of these.
5. 17 liberal states have pegged their energy/emissions policies to California.
6. Somehow electric vehicles are going to be made more affordable even though their batteries depend on rare minerals that China currently controls.
7. The movement to electric vehicles will have a negligible affect on global emissions and temperature unless China/India et al. follow suit (unlikely).
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"
