I will share my thoughts about American politics, as well as current events in Israel and elsewhere, based on my experiences in the U.S., South Africa, and the Middle East. I will also discuss books and popular culture from the perspective of a somewhat libertarian, religiously observant conservative living in California. I will also share art and ideas that I find useful and helpful, and link to my content at Breitbart News, Amazon, and elsewhere.

Breitbart News Sunday: show rundown (August 11, 2024)

This week, we'll be focusing on the 2024 election. I'll start with a few points.

1. The situation is exactly as I expected: a close race, with Democrats having a slight edge and Republicans needing some surprises. That is how it will always be, in any situation in which Republicans actually have a chance to prevail.

2. Kamala Harris has a losing strategy: left-wing running mate, no stated policies, rhetoric that insults half the country, pandering to the left, etc. She is not going for independents; she's mobilizing the Democrats' left-wing base.

3. Trump doesn't yet have a winning strategy. Winning, for Trump, means being able to motivate Trump voters to participate in a process they consider to be rigged, and giving them hope of achieving victory, as well as a vision of victory.

Right now, Trump isn't doing #3 yet. I offer my book, THE AGENDA, as a solution. But really -- Trump can win this thing. If he gets his act together.

This is what is left of my special place in the forest

Burned, then covered in mudslides and rockslides. The river still flows through it. But we have lost so much. I have to believe the spirit still lives on.

Breitbart News Sunday; show rundown (October 5, 2025)

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.

Weekly Torah reading: Ha'azinu (Deuteronomy 32:1-52)

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."

  • John Carney - Breitbart News financial editor, on the upcoming jobs report
