Iran, Massie, Karmelo Anthony and the Politics of Despair | Ep. 33

Congress just handed a conspiracy theory a credential it will never lose.

On Monday, on the 59th anniversary of the USS Liberty attack, Thomas Massie — a lame-duck congressman with nothing left to lose — stood on the floor of the United States House of Representatives and entered an antisemitic conspiracy theory into the Congressional Record. The claim: that Israel deliberately murdered American sailors in 1967, and that the U.S. government covered it up. That claim has lived for decades in the fever swamps of fringe blogs and crackpot influencers. Now it lives in the Congressional Record forever.

That same week: President Trump resumed strikes on Iran after an American Apache helicopter was downed, and already Alex Jones and others on the conspiratorial Right are suggesting its a false flag operation by Israel. And a jury in Collin County convicted Karmelo Anthony of murder — and the social feeds filled immediately leftists are demanding his release along racial lines, while Nick Fuentes is calling for whites to mirror that same racial solidarity.

The left and the dissident right are not opposites. They are competing brands of the same product — despair, blame, and the conviction that the only way forward is to burn it down. The left packages it as systemic oppression. The dissident right packages it as stolen greatness. The destination is the same: a person who has surrendered his agency to whichever movement most convincingly tells him he was wronged.

But Jeremy believes we can build a better future. Not as a naive refusal to see the problems — but as the conviction, grounded in faith, that your choices still matter, that building is still possible, and that the future belongs to those who build it.

Tonight, Jeremy is joined by the team making that case from the inside.

Jeremy gets into:

--Why Massie's USS Liberty speech is more dangerous than its content — and what the venue tells you about where the dissident right is heading

--The convergence of the left and the dissident right: same ideology, different packaging

--Why Jeremy launched this show — not because he wanted a podcast, but because an object in motion is more generative than an object at rest

--How Boreing Media thinks about AI, editorial standards, and building institutions that don't drift -toward audience capture

--What the conservative movement actually has to do in the next two years to avoid handing power back to the left
