    Whistleblower: Ivy League “Anti-Semitism” Scare Was Fake | DeProgram with Ted Rall and Jamarl Thomas

    Conflict reporter/writer/cartoonist Ted Rall and political analyst Jamarl Thomas deprogram you from mainstream media every weekday at 9 AM ET. Today we discuss: • The Trump task force created to combat “antisemitism” pushed for settlements with Ivy League universities despite government investigations that were rushed and incomplete or that failed to establish legal violations by the schools, a former Justice Department lawyer alleges in a whistleblower disclosure by former Justice Department attorney Haley Van Erem. The probe into the schools were designed to bully the schools into cutting deals for political purposes. Outcomes of the investigations were “predetermined, without regard to the evidence” in a “politically mandated effort” to shake money out of schools through settlement demands and funding freezes under the pretext of rooting out antisemitism. The complaint also says “officials targeted some Middle East Studies faculty for the content of their work and other professors for their Muslim faith.” • Another big upset victory for lefties: State Representative Angie Nixon, a progressive firebrand who could not afford a single TV ad, wins the Democratic Senate nomination in Florida. Alex Vindman, a candidate with establishment backing, raised more than 16 times as much. Will national corporate Democrats like Obama campaign for her? • You know about Fake News. Now there’s Fake Polls. Median Strategies, an organization that released public election polling in recent weeks withdrew the results of two surveys, revealing that it had fabricated the polls as part of a “short-term social experiment” meant to expose how quickly false information could spread. One of the surveys claimed that Francesca Hong was leading the Wisconsin Democratic primary for governor by more than 20 points. The false polls spread widely.

    Israeli Invaders Terrorize West Bank Families | DeProgram with Ted Rall and Jamarl Thomas

    Conflict reporter/writer/cartoonist Ted Rall and political analyst Jamarl Thomas deprogram you from mainstream media every weekday at 9 AM ET. Today we discuss: • The Palestinian-American whose home in the occupied West Bank has been besieged by Israeli settlers for over a week travels to his property to join family members who have been defending it. The standoff, in the village of Qusra, has seen groups of settlers surround several Palestinian houses and prevent residents from leaving. Israeli terrorists have killed 87 Palestinians this year. • Trump's approval rating falls to its lowest level ever, to 33%. Just 33% of respondents in the four-day survey said they approved of Trump's performance in the White House. 80% of Americans - including 87% of Democrats and 71% of Republicans - ​think U.S. involvement in Iran "will go on for an extended period of time," the Reuters/Ipsos poll found. Only one in five Americans - and half of Republicans - think the war has been worth it, the latest Reuters/Ipsos poll found. Voters prefer Democrats over Republicans as better stewards of the economy for the first time in about a decade. • Russia has accused the UK of “escalation” and threatened “consequences” following reports that British-made drones were used by Ukraine in long-range strikes in recent days.

    Democrats’ War Against Hasan Piker | DeProgram with Ted Rall and Jamarl Thomas

    Conflict reporter/writer/cartoonist Ted Rall and political analyst Jamarl Thomas deprogram you from mainstream media every weekday at 9 AM ET. Today we discuss: • Centrist Democrats keep pressuring progressive Democrats to cut ties with their most strident allies, like streamer Hasan Piker. “Well look, you know, it certainly makes sense to get rid of this Hasan Piker affiliation,” Haley Stevens told Fox. “I’m calling for that. I’ve continued to call on that.” Why are corporatists out to divide the Left? Will the Left let itself fall for the Sista Souljah tactic? • Ecuadorean fishermen are being bombed and killed by unidentified “gringos” using drones, spurring a mystery over whether the US military, another country or mercenaries are behind the murders. One fishing boat has been lost at sea since January, with 8 people presumed dead. Survivors blame English-speaking assailants wearing matching uniforms with American flag patches, without clear insignia, who hauled them out of the water, questioned and then handed over to El Salvador’s navy before being released. A plane based out of a military base in El Salvador followed and surveilled them before. • Public figures and friends of Jason Arday have called for a public inquiry into media coverage surrounding the former Cambridge professor, 41, before his suicide.

    New Ship to Relieve Troubled USS Abraham Lincoln | DeProgram with Ted Rall and Jamarl Thomas

    Editorial cartoonist Ted Rall and political analyst Jamarl Thomas deprogram you from mainstream media every weekday at 9 AM Eastern time. Today we discuss: • Help is on the way—but it’s a slow boat coming further away than China. The USS George Washington, based in Japan, will replace the USS Abraham Lincoln. 5,000 crew members have been at sea for more than 260 days—causing a mental health crisis onboard with multiple suicide attempts by sailors to jump overboard. Conditions onboard are foul, including insufficient food, water and basic supplies, yet Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth calls it “more fake news.” Guest: Elijah Magnier is a veteran war correspondent and political analyst with over 35 years covering the Middle East. He specializes in real-time reporting on strategy, terrorism, and geopolitics in Iran, Iraq, Lebanon, Syria, and Libya. • A last-minute hearing for Luigi Mangione’s federal case in the killing of UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson is set for this morning, fueling speculation that he might plead guilty. Mangione faces two stalking counts in his federal case, as well as murder and weapons charges in a separate New York state case. • NATO fighter jets shot down a drone over eastern Latvia, in an incident authorities linked to “Russian electromagnetic warfare.” SUBSCRIBE on YouTube/Rumble: $5/month $10/month on YouTube: Get a Closing Credit $20/month on YouTube: Exclusive Monthly Hangout with Ted and Jamarl (Rumblers: contact westglaciergaming@gmail.com for details) MERCH STORE: https://www.deprogram.live https://x.com/tedrall https://x.com/JamarlThomas LIVE ON RUMBLE: https://rumble.com/c/DeProgramShow SPOTIFY: https://open.spotify.com/show/2kdFlw2w8sSPhKI8NRx8Zu APPLE MUSIC: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/deprogram-with-ted-rall-and-jamarl-thomas/id1825379504

    Desperate US Sailors Leaping Overboard at Sea | DeProgram with Ted Rall and Jamarl Thomas

    Conflict reporter/writer/cartoonist Ted Rall and political analyst Jamarl Thomas deprogram you from mainstream media every weekday at 9 AM ET. Today we discuss: • As if the Middle East War wasn’t bad enough for the environment, a massive oil slick from a leaking Russian tanker has fouled 2,000 square miles of ocean off the coast of Oman. Aboard the USS Abraham Lincoln, 5,000 sailors are enduring a severe mental-health crisis caused by nine months at sea—with two days on land—and insufficient food, water and basic supplies. Numerous sailors have jumped overboard; others are trying to do so. Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth calls military families who complain liars. Retired U.S. Air Force Lt. Col. Karen Kwiatkowski, a geopolitical analyst and former Pentagon officer, joins to discuss. She served at the NSA, became a noted critic of Iraq War intelligence practices, and now comments on foreign policy and national security issues. • In an unusual move, pro-Zionist U.S. Ambassador to Israel, Mike Huckabee, condemned the terrorism by Jewish invaders who are besieging the home of an American-Palestinian family in the occupied West Bank. Since Sunday, settler-colonist goons have gathered near the home in the village of Qusra and harassed those inside, defying the IDF. • President Vladimir Putin of Russia visited the southern Kuril Islands for the first time, prompting an angry rebuke from Japan. Prime Minister Sanae Takaichi warned Russian leaders to stay away from the islands, which are known in Russia as the southern Kuril Islands and in Japan as the Northern Territories. Japan traces its claims to the 17th century, but the Russians generally date their sovereignty to the waning days of World War II, when Soviet troops occupied the islands after Japan’s surrender in 1945. Japan and Russia never signed a formal peace treaty. LIVE ON RUMBLE: https://rumble.com/c/DeProgramShow https://x.com/tedrall https://x.com/JamarlThomas #tedrall #jamarlthomas #news #politics

    The Q&A Runs Long and Goes Crazy | DeProgram with Ted Rall and Jamarl Thomas

    "DeProgram" hosts Ted Rall and Jamarl Thomas offer a wild-and-crazy Q&A episode.Ted recounts auctioning dinners on eBay and a bizarre encounter with an incestuous brother-sister couple who were fans and requested a threesome, sparking debate on taboos, “love is love,” and personal boundaries. Conversation expands into incest themes in porn, media like “Game of Thrones,” cultural practices such as cousin marriage among Pakistani immigrants, historical examples from Egypt and the Habsburgs, and differing views on attraction based on upbringing. Super Chat responses cover Joshua Kushner and Bob Iger’s $12 billion Lakers purchase, the 2016 Turkish coup, and lighter queries about autographing the “Communist Manifesto” or selling underwear. A lengthy debate ensues on homosexuality as innate versus chosen, drawing on natural law, evolutionary arguments, the Bible (Romans, Jude), animal behavior, the gay gene study, comparisons to pedophilia, personal stories, and religious perspectives on sin and reprobate minds. The show closes by reviewing Tucker Carlson’s 10-point manifesto on fairness, sovereignty, productivity, beauty, health, honesty, optimism, wisdom, decency, and immigration, then shifts to Christian theology, Scofield’s dispensationalism, Christian Zionism, the Antichrist, and end-times prophecy. Q&A extras are every Monday and Wednesday at 12 noon Eastern time.
