Arkansas Gov. Sarah Huckabee Sanders (R) recently ran a political advertisement about welfare reform. The plan she described was great, but the advertisement featured a lazy white guy as the stereotypical representation of a welfare recipient, even though that is the group least likely to receive aid. J. Burden joins me to discuss why the GOP is attacking young white men right before a critical election.  Follow on: Apple: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the-auron-macintyre-show/id1657770114 Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/3S6z4LBs8Fi7COupy7YYuM?si=4d9662cb34d148af Substack: https://auronmacintyre.substack.com/ Twitter: https://twitter.com/AuronMacintyre Gab: https://gab.com/AuronMacIntyre YouTube:https://www.youtube.com/c/AuronMacIntyre Rumble: https://rumble.com/c/c-390155 Odysee: https://odysee.com/@AuronMacIntyre:f Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/auronmacintyre/ Learn more about your ad choices.

Things are not looking great for Vivek Ramaswamy. Two polls released this week put Democrat Amy Acton ahead in the Ohio governor’s race. Marist has Acton leading 50% to 44% among registered voters, while a Suffolk poll has her ahead 50% to 41% among likely voters. Another survey has Ramaswamy narrowly ahead, so the race is hardly settled. But Ohio, a state Donald Trump carried comfortably in 2024, should not be producing this kind of anxiety for Republicans. Some of the explanation is national. Midterms punish incumbent parties. Trump’s approval has tanked, the war with Iran is unpopular, fuel prices have surged, and voters remain angry about affordability. Republicans still control Congress, but they have struggled to turn that control into accomplishments voters can see and feel. Ramaswamy presents an additional problem, one the party created for itself.

All human institutions, customs, traditions, and ways of being originate to serve the needs of specific peoples. The collective experiences, struggles, and beliefs of a tribe create a pattern of being, or a code, that organically rises to meet their specific challenges and perpetuate their way of life. These institutions and systems are territorialized, meaning they are deeply embedded in the specific cultural context of the tribe and serve its unique needs. But the modern world is breaking those systems apart and creating new versions that only serve their own ends. That process is redefining the way our politics work and will radically alter our society if we fail to understand the transformation that is taking place.   Support me and this channel by subscribing to BlazeTV Today and Get $20 off your annual subscription: https://blazetv.com/Auron Follow on: Apple: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the-auron-macintyre-show/id1657770114 Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/3S6z4LBs8Fi7COupy7YYuM?si=4d9662cb34d148af Substack: https://auronmacintyre.substack.com/ Twitter: https://twitter.com/AuronMacintyre Gab: https://gab.com/AuronMacIntyre YouTube:https://www.youtube.com/c/AuronMacIntyre Rumble: https://rumble.com/c/c-390155 Odysee: https://odysee.com/@AuronMacIntyre:f Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/auronmacintyre/ Learn more about your ad choices.

News Fist returns as we wrap up our reading of "Collective Violence, Contentious Politics, and Social Change" by Charles Tilly. In this episode, we address Tilly's assertion that warfare is the main catalyst of growth of state and the most effective method of centralizing its power. Does the state exist primarily to extract money to wage war? We will evaluate the purely materialist frame and whether it provides a sufficient foundation for understanding the nature of the state.  Follow on: Apple: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the-auron-macintyre-show/id1657770114 Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/3S6z4LBs8Fi7COupy7YYuM?si=4d9662cb34d148af Substack: https://auronmacintyre.substack.com/ Twitter: https://twitter.com/AuronMacintyre Gab: https://gab.com/AuronMacIntyre YouTube:https://www.youtube.com/c/AuronMacIntyre Rumble: https://rumble.com/c/c-390155 Odysee: https://odysee.com/@AuronMacIntyre:f Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/auronmacintyre/ Learn more about your ad choices.

The center-left academic Robert Putnam is well known for his research on social cohesion, but his research led to a discovery that he suppressed for years. When Putnam finally came forward with his data, he revealed that diversity has negative impact across almost all domains of social cohesion. People in diverse societies trust the government less, have fewer friends, participate less in civic organizations, and spend more time at home watching television. We'll review Putnam's findings and discuss why they remain controversial.  Follow on: Apple: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the-auron-macintyre-show/id1657770114 Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/3S6z4LBs8Fi7COupy7YYuM?si=4d9662cb34d148af Substack: https://auronmacintyre.substack.com/ Twitter: https://twitter.com/AuronMacintyre Gab: https://gab.com/AuronMacIntyre YouTube:https://www.youtube.com/c/AuronMacIntyre Rumble: https://rumble.com/c/c-390155 Odysee: https://odysee.com/@AuronMacIntyre:f Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/auronmacintyre/ Learn more about your ad choices.

Over the last few decades, many industries discovered they could grow their customer base and profits by selling a cheaper, inferior version of their product while degrading the experience for everyone. Air travel and theme parks are obvious examples. Both learned that the advantages of scale could outweigh the obligation to deliver a high-quality experience. That philosophy did not remain in the realm of economics. It spread slowly but surely into American public life. The United States government increasingly treats the country the same way: expand the customer base, maximize throughput, then sell people a tiered version of the American experience as the baseline crumbles.

A battle has broken out inside the conservative movement over the nature of American identity. Many establishment conservatives insist that America is a propositional nation where you only need to love freedom and wear a football jersey to belong. But identities that are so transactional do not inspire people to sacrifice and die on behalf of a nation. Christian Heiens, cohost of "Making the Argument," joins me to discuss. ollow on: Apple: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the-auron-macintyre-show/id1657770114 Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/3S6z4LBs8Fi7COupy7YYuM?si=4d9662cb34d148af Substack: https://auronmacintyre.substack.com/ Twitter: https://twitter.com/AuronMacintyre Gab: https://gab.com/AuronMacIntyre YouTube:https://www.youtube.com/c/AuronMacIntyre Rumble: https://rumble.com/c/c-390155 Odysee: https://odysee.com/@AuronMacIntyre:f Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/auronmacintyre/ Learn more about your ad choices.

Every functioning government provides physical protection while demanding money in the form of taxes. The state will send armed men to lock you up if you do not pay. Does that mean that governments are nothing but a glorified protection racket?

Texas GOP candidate Bo French ignited a furious debate on the nature of American identity after posting a photo of a University of Texas game that showed one section of the stands dominated by foreigners. The mass migration of Indians into Texas has created a cultural shift that many residents find unsettling. Democrats rushed to accuse the candidate of racism, and they were joined by many Texas Republicans, but French stood firm. Matthew Williams joins me to discuss the situation on the ground in Texas and what this might mean for the future of the GOP.

As Republicans head toward what looks like a perilous midterm election, affordability is on everyone’s lips. The Biden administration never convinced voters that it had brought food and housing costs under control. Some Republicans have tried to pretend the problem does not exist; others have acknowledged it without making meaningful progress. Both Joe Biden and Donald Trump made choices that worsened the pressure, from expanding federal spending to deepening costly foreign commitments. Neither party has a durable solution. The Congressional Budget Office projects a $1.9 trillion deficit for fiscal year 2026, and debt held by the public now tops 101% of GDP. Spending and inflation are not accidents at the edge of mass democracy. They follow from its incentives, and nothing will change until the incentives do.  Support me and this channel by subscribing to BlazeTV Today and Get $20 off your annual subscription: https://blazetv.com/Auron Follow on: Apple: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the-auron-macintyre-show/id1657770114 Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/3S6z4LBs8Fi7COupy7YYuM?si=4d9662cb34d148af Substack: https://auronmacintyre.substack.com/ Twitter: https://twitter.com/AuronMacintyre Gab: https://gab.com/AuronMacIntyre YouTube:https://www.youtube.com/c/AuronMacIntyre Rumble: https://rumble.com/c/c-390155 Odysee: https://odysee.com/@AuronMacIntyre:f Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/auronmacintyre/ Learn more about your ad choices.

Many Americans have heard the "melting pot" analogy used to explain the nature of our country's identity, but they don't know that term is relatively new. For most of the nation's history, the "Anglo-assimilation model" was considered the standard. Immigrants could come from all over Europe, but they were expected to conform to a predominantly British culture. We will be looking at Samuel Huntington's book "Who Are We?" to help us understand the three different models of American identity.  Follow on: Apple: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the-auron-macintyre-show/id1657770114 Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/3S6z4LBs8Fi7COupy7YYuM?si=4d9662cb34d148af Substack: https://auronmacintyre.substack.com/ Twitter: https://twitter.com/AuronMacintyre Gab: https://gab.com/AuronMacIntyre YouTube:https://www.youtube.com/c/AuronMacIntyre Rumble: https://rumble.com/c/c-390155 Odysee: https://odysee.com/@AuronMacIntyre:f Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/auronmacintyre/ Learn more about your ad choices.

The latest jobs report showed that 98% of new jobs in the month of August went to women, along with most of the raises and promotions. President Trump and other GOP politicians praised the news as a victory for women, but the implications for marriage in the U.S. are staggering. Women do not marry unemployed men, and they do not marry men who make less than they do.

The Trump administration recently revealed it is drafting a proposal, championed by Vice President JD Vance, to change how the government distributes money already earmarked for child care. The plan would tap the roughly $12 billion Child Care and Development Fund and make some of that money available to married couples with a stay-at-home parent. No new appropriation is involved. After months of conservative outrage over fraud and abuse in child care programs, you might expect the Right to welcome a proposal that gives families another option. Instead, establishment conservatives attacked Vance with the usual charge: socialism.

Americans are very proud of their intuitions, but over time, those organizations have become bloated and corrupt, exploiting those they were meant to serve.

For decades, American hiring and admissions have been distorted by a legal and bureaucratic regime that promised equal treatment while repeatedly rewarding institutions for sorting people by race and sex. The Civil Rights Act itself does not exclude white men; Title VII protects employees from discrimination because of race and sex regardless of which race or sex they are. But affirmative action rules, consent decrees, diversity mandates, contracting preferences, and institutional risk management created powerful incentives to treat demographic categories differently. Incentives shape behavior. Universities, Fortune 500 companies, government agencies, and nonprofits learned to fear discrimination claims, bad publicity, activist campaigns, and regulatory scrutiny. Long before “wokeness” became a corporate religion, lawyers and compliance departments were already teaching institutions to think in terms of protected groups, disparate impact, representation targets, and litigation exposure.

Everyone is talking about how the implementation of artificial intelligence will revolutionize employment or education, but very few are talking about how it will change politics. The managerial revolution changed how societies were organized, placing large amounts of power into mass bureaucracies and mass media. Now the AI will replace much of the population management that was achieved thorough bureaucracy, but that means control of the algorithm also means control of the state.  Follow on: Apple: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the-auron-macintyre-show/id1657770114 Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/3S6z4LBs8Fi7COupy7YYuM?si=4d9662cb34d148af Substack: https://auronmacintyre.substack.com/ Twitter: https://twitter.com/AuronMacintyre Gab: https://gab.com/AuronMacIntyre YouTube:https://www.youtube.com/c/AuronMacIntyre Rumble: https://rumble.com/c/c-390155 Odysee: https://odysee.com/@AuronMacIntyre:f Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/auronmacintyre/ Learn more about your ad choices.

There has been a lot of debate over the American economy and the reality of the affordability crisis for average families.

The assassination of Charlie Kirk was a devastating blow to conservatives, but almost as shocking was the response from parts of the left. Major figures issued the expected denunciations, yet plenty of ordinary progressives celebrated the violent death of a father and husband or mocked his memory online. Conservatives learned that some of their neighbors were perfectly willing to cheer the murder of a political opponent. Since then, trade wars, foreign wars, and the usual daily controversies have offered convenient distractions from a much darker realization: Something about American politics has changed. The old assumption that nearly everyone still accepts the same basic rules can no longer be taken for granted.

The Trump administration secured a flurry of big wins recently across several different categories. On immigration we have seen the deportation of Hattians who lost their Temporary Protected Status, a $100,000 fee for H-1Bs, and a pause on immigrant visas.

British political commentator Melanie Phillips recently made a social media post claiming that the British are not allowed to have a national identity but Israelis are required to have one. The arguments stemmed from her belief that the British were not a real ethnic group with a right to a collective self-determination, while the Israelis do share a real ethnic bond, so their claims are valid. Unfortunately,  Phillips is far from alone in this belief, which has created a real barrier to robust nationalism.

When I first entered the public arena, the focus of my work was almost entirely on why the Right needed to take power seriously. Conservatives had suffered a devastating string of political and cultural losses because they focused on argument and ideology while paying little attention to the way power actually worked. That criticism drew plenty of hostility from defenders of the status quo who did not appreciate some rookie pointing out why decades of conservative leadership had produced so little. It turns out I was not alone. Popular voices, including Matt Walsh and John Doyle, now openly support conservatives taking and wielding power effectively. That disagreement has launched another round of public debate over the pursuit of power, but the argument is only a proxy for a larger battle over JD Vance, foreign policy, and the future of MAGA.

Lindsay Clancy is on trial for the horrific crime of allegedly murdering her three children after sending her husband out to do errands. Even the defense in the case is not bothering to argue that Clancy is innocent, only that she may have been temporarily insane due to postpartum depression. Despite this admission, women online have raised a massive amount of money while creating a conspiracy theory that blames Clancy's husband. We'll discuss why so many women are willing to deny female agency when it's convenient.   Follow on: Apple: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the-auron-macintyre-show/id1657770114 Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/3S6z4LBs8Fi7COupy7YYuM?si=4d9662cb34d148af Substack: https://auronmacintyre.substack.com/ Twitter: https://twitter.com/AuronMacintyre Gab: https://gab.com/AuronMacIntyre YouTube:https://www.youtube.com/c/AuronMacIntyre Rumble: https://rumble.com/c/c-390155 Odysee: https://odysee.com/@AuronMacIntyre:f Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/auronmacintyre/ Learn more about your ad choices.

Jason Arday was the youngest black professor in the history of Cambridge University and a man with a very bright future until it was revealed that sections of his work had been plagiarized. Arday was found dead after the fraud had been uncovered, and the Left have turned him into their latest martyr. J. Burden joins me to discuss why Arday was  a villain, not a victim.

Everyone knows that America allied with the Soviet Union to win World War II, but the relationship quickly soured. A large number of Soviet spies were discovered in the U.S., and Sen. Joseph McCarthy (R-Wisc.) began his famous crusade against communist infiltration in 1950. McCarthy died in 1957 with most conservatives admitting that his mission was not successful, but what are the implications of that failure? J.

Massachusetts Democrat Gov. Maura Healey, a lesbian who claims to be Catholic, signed legislation this week liberalizing abortion while surrounded by progressive women celebrating the right to murder their healthy babies up till birth. To conservatives who rightly regard late-term abortion as the killing of a viable child, the scene was grotesque. It also illustrated a political asymmetry conservatives rarely discuss. Endless ink has been spilled and countless podcasts recorded about the radicalization of young men on the Right. Almost nobody in conservative media wants to address the equally serious radicalization of young women toward the progressive Left.

The conservative political class is committing one of the most disastrous acts of political malpractice in recent memory. When Biden press secretary Karine Jean-Pierre chided Americans for complaining about the price of staples such as milk and eggs, she did serious damage to the Democratic Party. Many voters backed Donald Trump because they trusted him to address inflation and the broader affordability crisis. Now, conservative pundits and influencers are repeating the same mistake, telling consumers that everything is fine and that only economic illiterates think groceries, gas, and housing cost too much.

The establishment conservative crowd had a recent meltdown over the fact that more and more people on the Right are begging to use the phrase "the common good." Pundits asserted that the phrase is akin to "social justice" and signals a rise in socialist sympathies on the Right.

Liberals increasingly treat politics as religion. They may have abandoned traditional faith, but they have not abandoned devotion. They possess saints, heretics, rituals, taboos, pilgrimages, and a vision of salvation. That political faith has given progressives the commitment required to capture institutions, build machines, and shape the future. Conservatives often respond with mockery, but progressives are having the last laugh.

For decades, truck driving remained one of the best options for blue-collar Americans to achieve a middle-class lifestyle. In a world where overpriced college degrees were required for the most simple jobs, trucking allowed a man to care for his family with relatively little time or money invested. Now foreign labor cartels are moving in to dominate the industry, displacing native-born Americans while using ethnic favoritism to corner the market.

Americans are looking for safety in an increasingly chaotic country. Mass immigration, collapsing social trust, and weakening civic bonds have transformed many communities from places where neighbors knew one another into anonymous zones governed by suspicion. Technology promises an escape from the consequences of those political and cultural failures. Flock Safety cameras appear to offer law and order at the push of a button. In the hands of the ruling class that manufactured the crisis, however, they are more likely to produce tyranny for citizens.

The internet has done an admirable job hobbling the corporate left-wing media’s ability to control the population through a single narrative. But that blessing comes with regrettable costs. The speed of information and the incentive to push hot takes onto social media mean that when a public figure dies, there is an immediate race to decide which competing narrative will define his legacy. When Lindsey Graham died suddenly of heart failure over the weekend, conspiracy theories about foreign assassination plots immediately began to circulate online. Many leftists openly celebrated his death, and the reactionary impulse of conservatives drove others to recast Graham as a stalwart crusader for MAGA. The truth is more complicated. But in the eternal battle for narrative supremacy, there is little time for reflection, even in response to death.

After Donald Trump’s stunning victory in the 2024 election, Democrats had to stop and ask what went wrong. One conclusion from the commentary class was that progressives had a serious man problem, and for once they were right. Democrats had made contempt for men, especially young white men, central to their message, and that came with a cost. Any white man who remained on the left had to accept that he was either uniquely guilty or expected to participate in his own dispossession. The party even launched a $20 million effort to discover why men were abandoning it, only to arrive at the familiar conclusion that men were simply bad and deserved what they got. This should have created a golden opportunity for the GOP to secure the loyalty of young men for a generation. Instead, conservatives are setting that opportunity on fire.
