    The Economy Is Booming... So Why Are You Broke? | Dennis Kneale | The Jeff Dornik Show

    Former CNBC and Fox Business anchor Dennis Kneale joins me to explain why Americans are losing faith in capitalism even as the stock market and GDP keep climbing. We dig into housing costs, inflation, government regulation, entrepreneurship, artificial intelligence, and the growing disconnect between the economic numbers celebrated in Washington and the grocery bills crushing actual families. Dennis brings his relentless optimism, I bring the inconvenient questions, and somewhere along the way we determine that socialism still sucks, government is usually standing at the scene of the crime, and Americans may need to stop waiting for politicians to rescue them and start taking responsibility for building their own future.

    Trump's "Secret Terror Court," Due Process, Oath Keepers & the Culture War | DeProgram with Ted Rall and Jamarl Thomas

    Did Donald Trump revive a little-known Clinton-era court that was never meant to be used? On this episode of DeProgram, Ted Rall, Jamarl Thomas, and Producer Robby West examine the Alien Terrorist Removal Court, a controversial Clinton-era legal mechanism that has suddenly returned to the national conversation. The panel debates whether secret evidence, classified proceedings, and extraordinary executive powers are compatible with due process and constitutional protections. The conversation expands into broader questions about government power, conspiracy law, and criminal intent. Robby challenges Ted and Jamarl over the Oath Keepers, Stuart Rhodes, and January 6, arguing that governments should be extremely cautious about imprisoning people for crimes that never actually occurred, while Ted and Jamarl explore where preparation crosses the line into criminal conspiracy. The second half of the show shifts into culture and entertainment as the panel debates Hollywood's race-swapping trend, Hamilton, historical accuracy, Assassin's Creed Shadows, and whether studios should reinterpret classic characters or focus on creating original stories. The episode closes with a look at escalating tensions in the Middle East following an attack on ships in Egypt, exploring competing theories about responsibility and the broader geopolitical implications as regional instability continues to grow.

    Would NYC Really Arrest Netanyahu? Iran, Cuba & America's Political Decline | DeProgram

    Could New York City's next mayor really arrest Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu? In this episode of DeProgram, Ted Rall and Jamarl Thomas examine Zohran Mamdani's controversial pledge to enforce the ICC arrest warrant against Netanyahu if he visits New York. They debate whether such a move is politically possible, whether it would transform Mamdani's political future, and why announcing it ahead of time may have been a strategic mistake. The conversation expands into a broader discussion about U.S. foreign policy, including the escalating confrontation with Iran, the strategic importance of the Strait of Hormuz, and why both hosts believe Tehran has little incentive to change course following American military strikes. Ted and JT also examine the State Department's latest report on Cuba, criticizing what they view as Cold War rhetoric and discussing the broader role of American intervention overseas. Along the way, they reflect on 9/11, government accountability, the Democratic Party's internal struggles, the decline of American political institutions, and why many establishment Democrats continue to push progressives out of the party.
