Elisha Wiesel: The Alarming Return of Antisemitism
- Elisha Wiesel argues that antisemitism has never disappeared, but says the aftermath of October 7 exposes how quickly old prejudices return when societies become divided and search for scapegoats. - Wiesel discusses Hamas’ October 7 attack, Israel’s response in Gaza and why he believes younger generations often struggle to recognize the reality of evil without the historical memory of events like 9/11, the Cold War or World War II. - He criticizes former President Barack Obama’s comments about Israel potentially losing its “moral center,” arguing that Israel has repeatedly taken steps toward peace while continuing to face existential threats. - Wiesel pushes back against accusations of genocide against Israel and says the Jewish community is being pressured to accept a “plea deal” in the court of public opinion rather than forcefully reject what he considers false charges. - Reflecting on his father Elie Wiesel, he recalls Auschwitz, the murder of family members during the Holocaust and his father’s deep gratitude toward America after U.S. troops liberated him from Buchenwald.

Iran Cannot Have a Nuclear Weapon, The Past 4 Presidents and Bernie Sanders Agree | Record Rewind
- Former Trump national security official Andrew Peek explains how presidents from both parties repeatedly vow that Iran cannot obtain a nuclear weapon while Tehran continues advancing its enrichment program. - The discussion examines Trump’s decision to leave the Iran nuclear deal and argues that many of the agreement’s restrictions would already be expiring even if the United States had remained in it. - Iran’s nuclear program becomes an election-year economic issue as higher prices linked to Middle East instability give Democrats a new line of attack against Republicans. - Peek says tensions involving Iran, the Strait of Hormuz, the Houthis, tariffs and the Russia-Ukraine war all contribute to price pressure and economic uncertainty. - The conversation highlights the broad international consensus against an Iranian nuclear weapon while questioning why that agreement has not produced a durable bipartisan strategy.

Why Brad Meltzer Says the JFK Files Still Leave Major Questions Unanswered
- Brad Meltzer dives into the surprising story behind the Wright brothers, from their bicycle shop and childhood curiosity to the repeated crashes and experiments that eventually lead to powered flight. - Meltzer explains why “We Are the Wright Brothers” is built around perseverance, teamwork and American ingenuity—and why he believes those lessons matter far beyond a children’s book. - The conversation connects the Wright brothers to the Apollo program, including the remarkable detail that Neil Armstrong carries a piece of the original Wright Flyer to the moon. - Meltzer discusses his mission to build a 100-book children’s history library, with upcoming subjects including Taylor Swift and Steven Spielberg, alongside new adult projects “The Viper” and “The Hitler Conspiracy.” - JFK takes center stage late in the conversation as Meltzer explains why some assassination records may still remain classified and shares his theory that Kennedy conspiracy narratives often reflect whatever America fears most in a given era.

The Disturbing Truth the Army Knew Before the Fort Hood Shooting
- Investigative journalist Pamela Browne revisits Nidal Hasan’s years in the Army, describing disturbing warning signs she says appear in his psychiatric-board presentation well before the 2009 Fort Hood attack. - Browne details Hasan’s communications with radical cleric Anwar al-Awlaki and explains why the contacts raise questions about how military and federal authorities assess the threat before the shooting. - The discussion examines the Obama administration’s initial classification of the Fort Hood attack as workplace violence and the later fight to award Purple Hearts to victims. - Browne reveals that Hasan sends her a 453-page handwritten document from death row, where he refers to al-Awlaki as “my teacher” and continues outlining his religious and ideological views. - The conversation also turns to Browne’s investigation of a suspected 9/11 facilitator, raising new questions about intelligence failures, government secrecy and information still missing from the public record.

Scott Bessent on Trump Accounts, China Risk and the Fight to Stabilize the Economy
- Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent says tax, trade, energy and regulatory certainty are helping stabilize the U.S. economy, while arguing that inflation expectations remain contained despite higher energy prices. - Bessent says economic security and national security are now inseparable, with Treasury spending major time on China, Iran, supply chains and critical industries. - He says the administration is preparing a new fiscal consolidation plan aimed at reducing deficits and bending the debt curve through spending restraint and stronger economic growth. - Bessent details efforts to reduce U.S. dependence on China for semiconductors, critical minerals and pharmaceuticals, including reshoring production and using tariffs as leverage. - On Iran, Bessent says the strategy has shifted from “maximum pressure” to an “absolute isolation campaign,” with oil exports, travel routes and financial assets increasingly targeted.

We Were Going to Ram the Plane": Heather Penney’s Untold 9/11 Mission
- Heather Penney recounts taking off on 9/11 with Mark Sasseville in unarmed F-16s, prepared to ram a hijacked airliner if necessary—Sasseville targeting the cockpit and Penney the tail. - Penney explains why the D.C. Air National Guard is not sitting armed and ready that morning, detailing post-Cold War cutbacks, command delays and the time required to build and load live missiles. - An intelligence officer manually tracks unaccounted-for aircraft as Penney and Sasseville launch toward the northwest, searching for what they later learn is Flight 93. - By the time the fighters reach the area, Flight 93’s passengers have already fought back, leaving Penney to describe them—and the air traffic controllers managing the chaos—as some of the day’s true heroes. - Penney reflects on how 9/11 briefly unites the country, argues that media sensationalism and political incentives deepen today’s divisions, and calls for Americans to recover a sense of shared purpose.
