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 (March 9, 2025)

Welcome back to summer! The first show of Daylight Savings Time is here.

President Donald Trump impressed the nation with his address to Congress this week -- and Democrats had no idea how to respond. But now is when the proverbial rubber hits the road. Will his shake-up of DC benefit Americans?

Democrats are beginning to make the case that Trump's tariffs and cuts to government are going to hurt the economy. Even the uncertainty of his style, they say, will hurt. Republicans know they can only blame Biden for so long.

Meanwhile, in L.A., the cleanup from the Palisades and Eaton fires continues. We're nearing a critical point, when people will have to decide whether they can rebuild -- or whether they will have to sell because the costs are too high.

We'll also interview a Bay Area legend, conservative radio host Michael Savage, about his interview with Governor Gavin Newsom on his podcast (which, with Charlie Kirk, has already caused some problems for Newsom).

The week ahead will feature key votes on Trump's budget -- and for his agenda generally. Democrats are trying to avoid saying how they will vote, and whether they will really shut down the government over DOGE.

Special guests:

John Carney -- Breitbart News financial editor, on the economy
Kathryn Barger -- L.A. County Supervisor, on the recovery from the fires
Nick Gilbertson -- Breitbart News White House correspondent, on the Oval
Michael Savage -- radio legend, on his interview on Gavin Newsom's podcast

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
