What is wrong with the FBI--and with our intelligence community more broadly? These are the questions that Andrew Bernstein and Bosch Fawstin will discuss on Truth in Politics.2021-08-261h 41

Truth in PoliticsEp. 027: Opposing the Administration Makes Someone a Terror Threat?According to the Department of Homeland Security, if American citizens oppose "COVID measures"--or uphold claims of election fraud and/or belief that Trump can be re-instated--or believe (something unstated) about "9/11 anniversary and religious holidays," this makes them "terror threats." The first two of these claims are manifest drivel and the third is incoherent. What are the purpose(s) of such vicious tripe? Why does the Biden Administration seek to label dissenters as "terror threats"? And what will the Administration do to such potential "terrorists"? These are the questions that Andrew Bernstein and Bosch Fawstin will discuss and answer o...2021-08-191h 21

Truth in PoliticsEp. 026: Examining The January 6th "Insurrection"The mayhem at the Capitol on January 6th was clearly unjustifiable criminal violence. But was it an insurrection, as Leftists claim--or was it a riot? What are the facts as we know them? Why does the government not release many hours of security camera footage? Were Leftist terrorists involved in instigating the violence? Was the FBI involved? Seven months later, why has no one been charged with insurrection? These are the questions to be discussed by Andrew Bernstein and Bosch Fawstin.2021-08-121h 24

Truth in PoliticsEp. 025: Are Suppporters of Either Major Party "Enemies of the State?""New York Times" reporter, Katie Benner, recently tweeted and then retracted the claim that Trump supporters are "enemies of the state" and should be treated as "national security threats." Is this claim accurate? Perhaps 70 million Trump supporters believe that Biden voters are "enemies of the state." If they do, is that claim truthful? Or, conversely, is it morally wrong and politically volatile to treat millions of supporters of either major party as "national security threats?" If so, why? These are the questions to be discussed at 8 pm ET tonight by Andrew Bernstein and Bosch Fawstin.2021-08-051h 36 $Ricardo\'s Time$ Ricardo's TimeObjectivism, Ayn Rand, Heroism, and Education | Andrew BernsteinRicardo talks with Objectivist intellectual Andrew Bernstein, best known as "The Education guy" He is host of The Hero Show.You can find more about Andrew Bernstein here: https://www.andrewbernstein.net/*****RICARDO’S TIMEBECOME A MEMBEREnjoy my content?

Truth in PoliticsEp. 024: Should We End the War on Drugs?Do adult citizens of a free society have an inalienable right to voluntarily ingest any substance they want? Do they have the right to possess and/or sell such substances? Or should the government be granted the power to coercively restrain adult individuals from doing so? Ayn Rand showed us that the moral is the practical--and, conversely, the immoral is the impractical. If we end the war on drugs, will this disenfranchise violent drug gangs in our major cities? Will it significantly reduce the homicide rate in America? These are the questions to be discussed by Andrew Bernstein and...2021-07-151h 24

Truth in PoliticsEp. 022: The Fate of Independent Thinking Students in America's Leftist UniversitiesIt is widely known that American universities are dominated by Leftist dogma. What happens to those students sufficiently independent to challenge the orthodoxy? What fate befalls those who stand up in support of capitalism, America, and color blind individualism? Are they encouraged to challenge the prevailing orthodoxy? Are they punished by Leftist professors and administrators? Are they intimidated into silence? Peter Seferian, an exceptionally intelligent recent college graduate, joins Andrew Bernstein and Bosch Fawstin to discuss these important questions.2021-07-011h 59

Truth in PoliticsEp. 021: Will Capitalism Survive?Capitalism has brought unparalleled freedom and prosperity to billions of human beings around the world. Yet it is under ceaseless attack from intellectuals, moralists, and Leftist politicians. What will it take for capitalism to survive? What are the essential points to be made in its defense? Why does socialism, despite manifest and egregious failures, still attract intellectual, moral, and political support? The accomplished economist, Dr. Richard Salsman, author of the new book, "Where Have All The Capitalists Gone?" joins Andrew Bernstein and Bosch Fawstin on "Truth in Politics" to discuss these provocative questions.2021-06-241h 31

Truth in PoliticsEp. 019 Is Racism Toward White People Possible?One aspect of current Leftist orthodoxy is the claim that racism requires the power to systemically persecute an ethnic minority, and is not possible by members of a minority. Is this accurate? So when a non-white psychiatrist gives a lecture at Yale titled "The Psychopathic Problem of the White Mind," in which she states that white people are "out of their minds," that "there are no good apples [among whites] out there," and that "white people make my blood boil," this is not racism. Nor is it racism when she says that she had "fantasies of unloading a revolver i...2021-06-151h 41

Truth in PoliticsEp. 018; Has the Left Privatized Censorship?The U.S. government has not yet legally quashed freedom of speech. But Leftist intellectuals, journalists, and entrepreneurs outside of government engage in cancel culture to suppress the dissemination of ideas inimical to Leftist orthodoxy. Private individuals and companies are doing the dirty work that Leftist politicians like AOC speak of but cannot yet legally do. This is privatized Leftist thought suppression. What are the myriad instances of it? Above all, how should freedom-loving individuals properly fight it? These are the questions to be discussed by Andrew Bernstein and Bosch Fawstin.2021-06-031h 34

Truth in PoliticsEp. 017: Is America Being Pushed Toward Communism?Marxist intellectuals, "woke" corporations, Democratic politicians, and the Leftist media endorse totalitarian policies. They fire workers for criticizing Leftist orthodoxy, call for government agencies to regulate "misinformation" on social media, report only what supports a socialist agenda, and lie repeatedly about current issues. Dr. Nora Dimitrova-Clinton will join us for this show. She holds a Ph.D. in Classics from Cornell University, she grew up in Communist Bulgaria, and she is a freedom-loving American patriot. Andrew Bernstein, Bosch Fawstin, and Dr. Dimitrova-Clinton will discuss the baleful similarities between current Leftist policies and life under Communism.

Truth in PoliticsEp. 016: Israel's Moral Right to Self-DefenseIsrael is a bastion of reason and freedom in a desert of Islamic irrationality and dictatorship.

Truth in PoliticsEp. 015: Taking a Moral Stand Against Woke Racism: One Parent's Courageous StoryAndrew Gutman pulled his young daughter out of the Brearley School, an exclusive all-girls prep school in New York City, because of its vicious racist indoctrination of students. He penned a brilliant letter to other parents, decrying the overt racism of the school's "educational" policies. Will this be the start of rational human beings, sick to their hearts of the Left's psychopathology, standing up to take a principled moral stand in support of individualism and against racism in all of its hideous iterations?
