American Thinker Takeaways, June 23, 2026

Today's video podcast tackles just one topic, which is the common thread that runs through raising children, training dogs, and dealing with Muslims on American soil who have dreams of caliphate glory.

Today's video podcast tackles the following topics: ·      0:00 Introduction ·      1:05 European inertia ·      9:52 Conservative Americans' malaise I almost kept to my upper limit of ten minutes, and hope to do better next time. You can also watch the video on Rumble.

Today's video podcast tackles four topics: One. The surprising nature of employees at major airports given the identity of most hijackers since the 1960s. Two. The non-stop leftist propaganda at Seattle Airport. Three. Our quisling institutions are part of why Trump signed the Iran MOU. Four. Apparently, the Holocaust will soon be a forbidden subject at schools for fear of offending...certain people. ·      0:00 Introduction ·      04:21 Airport Security ·      13:37 Seattle Airport indoctrination ·      18:28 Quisling institutions and the MOU ·      26:09 The forbidden Holocaust curriculum

Today's topics are: ·      0:00 Introduction ·      0:16 Islam's sado-sexual culture ·      10:52 How America is doing in Iran and China ·      21:47 The reasonable reason for halting redistricting in South Carolina ·      26:43 A society cannot be structured around damaged people First, I examine the dueling reports about the unspeakable crimes Arabs committed against Jews on October 11 and Nicholas Kristof's blood libel about raped Arabs in Israeli prisons. I'll explain exactly why the former reports are manifestly true and the latter obscenely false. Second, I look at how we're doing vis-à-vis Iran and China. Maybe I'm a cockeyed optimist, but I think all is well under Trump's management. Third, before people get their knickers in a twist about the fact that the South Carolina legislature is dragging its heels on redistricting, there's reasonable thinking going on there. Fourth, and last, based on people I know and know of, a reminder that a society cannot organize itself around its most damaged members, no matter how sad their lives are.

This one's a bit different, because it's relatively short (for me) and discusses only a single topic: Whether Europe can survive. I don't think it can, and I explain why.

·      0:00 Introduction ·      0:40 Trump on Iran is no fool, no matter what the media say ·      11:43 Trump hatred started with Reagan hatred ·      15:11 The left mutilates Passover ·      28:18 The View hosts' modern eugenics ·      35:49 Free speech is dying in the Anglosphere

Today's topics are: ·      0:00 Introduction ·      0:23 Democrats are determined to lose another war ·      5:15 The Republican Party should not be a Big Tent. Toss the Groypers ·      20:28 The UK continues its war on self-defense

Today's topics are (1) China isn't having a good year, whether at home or abroad (2) What's happening in Iran is both amazing and necessary (3) The Democrats' hatred for Trump is blinding them to both the truth and the incredible evil that the mullahs represent (4) There are morally decent Democrats, but they're incapable of seeing that the isolated problems they recognize are part of an inherently corrupt ideology (5) The Democrats are destroying young lives, with just one example highlighting what they've done

Today's topics are (1) how Trump took the necessary steps to improve his job approval in the lead-up to the midterms, (2) the reason tariffs won't cause economic collapse and why they're a wonderful and equitable way to raise revenue, (3) the real meaning behind "Prince" Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor's detention, (4) the truth about the world in which Gavin Newsom grew up, and (5) the fact that my dad was right all along (going back to the 1970s) about the collapse of American K-12 education.
