Did the Trump administration really call Putin a "humanitarian," or did the media miss the point? Rod Martin joins Eric to break down Steve Witkoff's comments after Russia freed American Stephen Hubbard, and why Eric says it's diplomacy, not praise.They also take on the media's soft treatment of Ilhan Omar after the federal search of her home, the jobs and investment boom that Larry Kudlow calls the "greatest story never told," why gas costs more than it should, and how a few votes per precinct could decide the House in the midterms.Rod explains the argument of his new book, Trump's New World Re-Order: Dismantling the Deep State and Ending Postwar Globalist Rule (with a foreword by Eric). He argues that Trump is dismantling the bureaucratic order FDR built and replacing the postwar globalist order abroad, and that the Supreme Court's overturning of Humphrey's Executor changed the game.Plus: Eric's first pheasant hunt in South Dakota, and news on the Socrates in the City Mediterranean cruise, Eric's Nov. 12 conversation with Ignat Solzhenitsyn and the Dec. 9 gala. Trump's New World Re-Order is available now from Odysseus Books. Eric's book Revolution is available wherever books are sold.⭐ ORDER NOW:Revolution: The Birth of the Greatest Nation in the History of the World📕: https://a.co/d/0ir3NlapTODAY'S SPONSORS:🪙 Grace Precious Metals: https://www.metaxasmetals.com/🛏️ MyPillow — Save BIG with code ERIC: https://www.mypillow.com/☀️ Chapter -- Honest, fast, and free Medicare plan guidance: https://askchapter.com/metaxas/🦅 Patriot Mobile -- America's ONLY Christian Conservative Wireless Provider: https://patriotmobile.com/partners/metaxas🏛️ Socrates in the City CRUISE: https://socratesinthecity.com/cruise/00:00 Socrates in the City: Cruise, Solzhenitsyn and the Gala06:22 Eric's First Pheasant Hunt12:42 Rod Martin and Trump's New World Re-Order15:32 A Million New Jobs and the Greatest Story Never Told20:04 Gas Prices and Energy Dominance24:45 Witkoff, Putin and the "Humanitarian" Uproar28:03 Ilhan Omar, USAID and the Media34:56 Four Votes Per Precinct: The Midterm Math40:00 FDR's Deep State and Humphrey's Executor43:07 Alternative Media and Why Rod Is Optimistic- - -LIKE AND SUBSCRIBE: https://www.youtube.com/@ericmetaxas#EricMetaxas #TheEricMetaxasShow #News #PoliticsChapter and its affiliates are not connected with or endorsed by any government entity or the federal Medicare program.

Was the childhood home of Jesus found beneath a convent in Nazareth, and why won't the scholars say it out loud? Dinesh D'Souza joins Eric to walk through the discoveries in his new book, The Stones Cry Out: Biblical Archaeology, Prophecy, and the Last Days, and his companion PragerU documentary series.Dinesh describes standing in the pit where the prophet Jeremiah was thrown and trapped in mud, and how the seals of the two officials who put him there have been dug up in Jerusalem. He tells the story of archaeologist Eilat Mazar, who used the Bible as a map to find what she believed was King David's palace, and of a seal that may bear the prophet Isaiah's name. He also explains the Pool of Siloam and the Pilgrimage Road that Jesus almost certainly walked.Plus: why Samson's feat is more plausible than skeptics claimed, the inscription naming Balaam son of Beor, how the pagan emperor Hadrian accidentally marked the site of Jesus' tomb, and why Eric believes the secularists are on the ropes.The Stones Cry Out is available now from Charisma House.

Sold in Ottoman slave markets as a teenage Christian girl, then rescued by an American, Aurora Mardiganian told the world what happened to Armenia's Christians in her 1918 memoir Ravished Armenia. Larry Alex Taunton thought her story was so important that he brought more than 100 copies to hand out after his September 11 talk, "The Cross and the Quran," which has drawn millions of views.Larry tells Eric what he has seen firsthand in Africa, the Middle East and Europe: a cleric in a Cairo bazaar spitting at a woman for wearing jeans, the phone apps where women have been sold as "domestics," and the threats he says he has faced for reporting on it. He also explains why he believes so-called moderates can be radicalized by imported clerics.They also discuss Dr. Mark Christian's memoir The Apostate, why the West produced its art and science, and why Larry thinks the West is "living in the ruins" of its Christian inheritance. Larry also explains why he believes banning Sharia won't work and what he would do instead.Watch Larry's talk at his YouTube channel, Larry Alex Taunton, and find his work at larryalextaunton.com.⭐ ORDER NOW:Revolution: The Birth of the Greatest Nation in the History of the World📕: https://a.co/d/0ir3NlapTODAY'S SPONSORS:🪙 Grace Precious Metals: https://www.metaxasmetals.com/🛏️ MyPillow — Save BIG with code ERIC: https://www.mypillow.com/☀️ Chapter -- Honest, fast, and free Medicare plan guidance: https://askchapter.com/metaxas/🦅 Patriot Mobile -- America's ONLY Christian Conservative Wireless Provider: https://patriotmobile.com/partners/me...🏛️ Socrates in the City CRUISE: https://socratesinthecity.com/cruise/00:00 What Is Islam?

Netflix's Narnia: The Magician's Nephew has Meryl Streep voicing Aslan and a reported budget of $280 million. And John Zmirak says test audiences hated it. Eric and John take on Greta Gerwig's adaptation of C.S. Lewis, why Hollywood keeps buying beloved properties only to turn them against their fans, and the one scene online critics may have gotten backwards.Then John explains why a Dallas theater's drag-queen brunch screening of The Fellowship of the Ring enraged him in a way the Narnia news didn't. He argues it's willful vandalism that mirrors exactly what Tolkien's dark lord does: twisting what he can't create.They also discuss envy as the deadliest sin, including John's view that jealousy of Charlie and Erika Kirk is driving Candace Owens; his upcoming Chronicles essay arguing that white guilt is a false gospel; Angela Merkel's migrant policy; Kimberly Guilfoyle; and whether Ilhan Omar should be jailed or deported. Eric and John don't agree on that one.Read John Zmirak at The Stream (stream.org) and Chronicles (chroniclesmagazine.org).⭐ ORDER NOW:Revolution: The Birth of the Greatest Nation in the History of the World📕: https://a.co/d/0ir3NlapTODAY'S SPONSORS:🪙 Grace Precious Metals: https://www.metaxasmetals.com/🛏️ MyPillow — Save BIG with code ERIC: https://www.mypillow.com/☀️ Chapter -- Honest, fast, and free Medicare plan guidance: https://askchapter.com/metaxas/🦅 Patriot Mobile -- America's ONLY Christian Conservative Wireless Provider: https://patriotmobile.com/partners/me...🏛️ Socrates in the City CRUISE: https://socratesinthecity.com/cruise/00:00 Eric at the Broadmoor: $9.50 Coffee and 30 Years of Marriage03:53 Kimberly Guilfoyle and the Worst of MAGA05:47 Greta Gerwig's Narnia and Meryl Streep's Aslan11:23 The $280 Million Budget and Hollywood's Pattern14:40 The Eagle and Child Scene Critics Got Wrong18:09 A Drag Queen Lord of the Rings Screening22:32 What Drag Queens Have in Common With Orcs25:46 Envy, Candace Owens and the Deadliest Sin30:23 White Guilt as a False Gospel41:18 Ilhan Omar: Jail or Deportation? - - LIKE AND SUBSCRIBE: / @ericmetaxas #EricMetaxas #TheEricMetaxasShow #News #PoliticsChapter and its affiliates are not connected with or endorsed by any government entity or the federal Medicare program.

Karl Marx is often remembered as an economist who wanted to help the poor. But John G. West of Discovery Institute says that as a young man, Marx wrote dark poetry about forfeiting heaven: "My soul, once true to God, is chosen for hell." Eric and John discuss why communism isn't merely wrong economics but, they argue, spiritually anti-Christian from A to Z, and why most Christian colleges won't teach students its history.West tells the forgotten story of "human zoos," including the young African man the Bronx Zoo put in a cage with chimpanzees as a "missing link," and how the eugenics crusade it fed came to America before Nazi Germany. Eric shares how his own mother escaped Stalinist East Germany at 17, and West recalls his piano teacher in Soviet-occupied Poland, who was forced to sing hymns to Stalin: "The Nazis would just kill you. The Marxist utopia wanted your soul."They also discuss Cornerstone University's new core curriculum, The Story of Everything film on science and God, West's books Stockholm Syndrome Christianity and Endowed by Our Creator, and how to make sure your giving isn't funding the drift.Watch Human Zoos on YouTube and learn more at humanzoos.org and discovery.org.⭐ ORDER NOW:Revolution: The Birth of the Greatest Nation in the History of the World📕: https://a.co/d/0ir3NlapTODAY'S SPONSORS:🪙 Grace Precious Metals: https://www.metaxasmetals.com/🛏️ MyPillow — Save BIG with code ERIC: https://www.mypillow.com/☀️ Chapter -- Honest, fast, and free Medicare plan guidance: https://askchapter.com/metaxas/🦅 Patriot Mobile -- America's ONLY Christian Conservative Wireless Provider: https://patriotmobile.com/partners/metaxas🏛️ Socrates in the City CRUISE: https://socratesinthecity.com/cruise/00:00 John West and Cornerstone University04:57 Why Communism Is Anti-Christian06:56 The Body Count and Hymns to Stalin09:32 Eric's Mother Escaped East Germany at 1712:30 The Story of Everything and Intelligent Design15:19 Darwinism Inside Christian Colleges27:20 Human Zoos: A Man in a Cage at the Bronx Zoo30:01 Karl Marx's Satanic Poetry37:05 Where Your Giving Goes and the Charlie Kirk Test43:08 What John West Is Working On Now- - -LIKE AND SUBSCRIBE: https://www.youtube.com/@ericmetaxas#EricMetaxas #TheEricMetaxasShow #News #PoliticsChapter and its affiliates are not connected with or endorsed by any government entity or the federal Medicare program.
