Welcome back, after a Super Bowl hiatus! It's Presidents' Day weekend, and whether you're driving to the mountains or the coast, you'll enjoy this live, and urgent, edition of the show.
We'll discuss events abroad, including the death of Putin opponent Alexei Navalny -- and Tucker Carlson's interview of Putin, in that context. (I thought the interview was valuable, but let's discuss.)
We'll also talk about another Tucker interview -- this one with Mike Benz, who has argued that the U.S. intelligence agencies have turned tools used to foment foreign uprisings against domestic opposition.
We'l turn to domestic politics as well -- Trump's dramatic trials, the South Carolina Republican primary, and the new revelations that Jim Biden, the president's brother, traded on his name for a failed firm.
Join us!
Special guests:
Marshall Poe -- Russia scholar, on Putin, Navalny, and Tucker
Lee Smith -- on U.S. intelligence manipulating our elections
Frances Martel -- on Russia, Argentina, and the Middle East
Ken Klukowski -- Breitbart News legal affairs editor, on Trump

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 ...
