Why Republicans Have To Work Ten Times HarderWhy Republicans Have To Work Ten Times Harder
The World According To Ben Stein
Ben Stein and co-host Judah Friedman are joined by former Trump EPA chief of staff Mandy Gunasekara to discuss the growth of antisemitism, and mainstream media’s willingness to avoid covering these tragic stories. It’s another sick form of media manipulation. Plus, we discuss the continued silence of U.S.-based “women’s groups” that seem to not care about egregious violence perpetrated against Israeli women, especially those at the Supernova music festival on October 7th. Mandy suggests many of the U.S.-based women’s groups care more about expanding the political control of the Left rather than improving women’s lives in any meaningful way. Finally, they discuss the consequences of appeasement in foreign policy, the GOP disadvantage in mainstream media – why do they always make us look bad, and so much more.
