Christian nationalism, Trump apocalypse rhetoric, end times prophecy, Iran war escalation, far-right Christianity, authoritarian influence, cult psychology and MORE! Dr. Steven Hassan goes LIVE with Frederick Clarkson to expose the extremist belief systems shaping U.S. politics right now.

In this livestream, Dr. Steven Hassan, author of The Cult of Trump and creator of the BITE Model, speaks with Frederick Clarkson, a senior research analyst at Political Research Associates and longtime investigative journalist who has spent decades analyzing the intersection of religion, politics, and authoritarian movements.

Together, they will break down the growing influence of far-right Christian nationalist movements, the role of apocalyptic “end times” mindsets in shaping political agendas, and how these beliefs intersect with rising right-wing authoritarianism, war narratives involving Iran, and the broader influence ecosystem surrounding Donald Trump.

Drawing from Clarkson’s recent reporting and decades of expertise, this conversation will examine how Christian extremist ideology can be used to manipulate the public, from mainstream political messaging to high-control cults that encourage obedience, fear, and urgency around “divine” political outcomes.

Together, they’ll explore critical questions, including:

  • How Christian nationalism is influencing U.S. policy, elections, and public discourse
  • What “end times” or apocalyptic theology actually does to people psychologically and how those emotions are being politicized
  • Why some political actors frame war (including conflict with Iran) in religious or prophetic terms
  • How these movements use fear, identity, and certainty to recruit and mobilize followers
  • How media, churches, and political leaders reinforce or challenge these narratives
  • What this means for democracy, pluralism, and separation of church and state
  • How individuals can recognize "fake news" propaganda and resist other manipulative belief systems




Christ for the Nations and the Hidden Roots of the NAR

John traces the historical line from William Branham and the Voice of Healing movement to Gordon Lindsay, Dallas, and the rise of Christ for the Nations Institute. He explains how healing revival networks, interdenominational branding, anti-communist activism, and deliverance training helped shape ideas that still echo through modern apostolic and prosperity movements.

The episode also examines how the billion soul harvest theme, hero-driven revival culture, and deliverance-school models developed long before the modern NAR. By following the move to Dallas and the institutional legacy of Gordon Lindsay, John shows why Christ for the Nations remains a key hub for understanding the deeper roots of charismatic power networks.

What Are The Implications Of The US Backing Israel In Its Two Latest Disputes With Poland?

 

Poland Germany Israel holocaust historical revisionism Huckabee scandal anti-semitism

More Poles might sour on the US, which could lead to support for policies aimed at prioritizing the EU over the US or at least balancing between them instead of remaining solidly under its influence, and the pro-US conservative opposition might be pressured to move in this direction for electoral reasons.

Poland and Israel are embroiled in two new disputes on top of their three older ones over Israel’s claim of large-scale Polish complicity in the Holocaust, its resultant demand for reparations, and top Israeli official Israel Katz then accusing Poles of “suckling anti-Semitism with their mothers’ milk”. The first scandal began when populist-nationalist Confederation MP Konrad Berkowicz unfurled an Israeli flag with a swastika in the Sejm on Holocaust Remembrance Day and called Israel the “new Third Reich”.

The Polish Foreign Ministry swiftly condemned him, as did US Ambassador to Poland Tom Rose, but he did so in a quote-tweet of Confederation leader Slawomir Mentzen’s post promoting Berkowicz’s stunt. Rose scandalously wrote, “SHAME SHAME SHAME on YOU!! Maybe even you have noticed that we Jews aren’t so easy to push around anymore, are we? We defend ourselves with all our strength without apology — we stand with our friends and we know how to fight and defeat our enemies!!!”

Mentzen asked, “Are you threatening me?”, but Rose didn’t respond. For context, Rose reportedly told pro-US conservative “Law & Justice” (PiS) leader Jaroslaw Kaczynski earlier this year that the US wouldn’t support a coalition government that includes populist-nationalist Confederation of the Polish Crown leader Grzegorz Braun due to his anti-Semitic scandals. If this is applied to Confederation, then PiS could be deterred from forming a coalition with it after fall 2027’s next elections, thus perpetuating liberal rule.

The Israeli Foreign Ministry predictably condemned Berkowicz too, but even more scandalously wrote on X that “Such a person has no place in the parliament of democratic Poland. We expect the Polish authorities to take decisive and swift action.” Mentzen then condemned them for “decid[ing] who should have a place in the Polish parliament.” The second scandal then began when Polish Foreign Minister Radek Sikorski quote-tweeted the Israeli Embassy over its inquiry into the IDF’s desecration of Jesus.

Part of his post saw him write that “IDF soldiers themselves admit to war crimes. They killed not only civilian Palestinians but even their own hostages”, thus prompting a lengthy and furious reply from his Israeli counterpart that US Ambassador to Israel Mike Huckabee described as “absolute fire”. Former Polish Ambassador to Israel and the US Marek Magierowski, who’s no friend of Sikorski’s, questioned which country Huckabee represents and condemned his intervention into the issue as inappropriate.  (more...)

Internet Communities Are Dying… And Nobody Noticed

What happened to online communities? Seriously?!

There was a time where the internet actually felt alive. You would find random forums about super niche topics. People knew each other.

You recognized usernames. There were inside jokes, real conversations, even drama sometimes. It felt like a real, welcoming place!

Now?

Most of us just rotate between the same few apps:

  • Instagram
  • TikTok
  • YouTube
  • Reddit
  • X

And somehow… it feels more empty. There are less communities, but more content. Less conversation, and more engagement.

The internet used to feel like a city full of different neighborhoods, and now it feels like a shopping mall.

Everything is centralized, everything is algorithm-driven, and the communities we thought we were building… we never actually owned them.

In this video, I break down what changed and why it feels this way. And more importantly… what might come next!

Report: Trump Administration Is Spying on Pope Leo XIV’s Vatican

 

Trump CIA espionage Vatican Pope Leo XIV targeting Catholic

An independent journalist with a record of leaked-FBI scoops has documented that the Vatican is being targeted by US intelligence services.

Ken Klippenstein has published a report confirming that U.S. intelligence agencies have, for years, been spying on the Vatican — and that President Donald Trump’s April 12 broadside against Pope Leo XIV has now turned that surveillance into an operational priority.

According to Klippenstein’s reporting, when Trump declared Leo “terrible for foreign policy,” “the U.S. intelligence community took the president’s remarks as a directive to prioritize spying on the Vatican.”

The CIA, he writes, “has human spies working inside the Holy See bureaucracy.” The NSA and CIA seek to intercept Vatican telecommunications, emails, and texts. The State Department circulates a daily Vatican news digest. The U.S. military maintains a distinct linguistic capability code — “QLE” — for Ecclesiastical Latin.

Klippenstein’s record makes the report difficult to dismiss.

He left The Intercept in April 2024 to build one of the most influential independent newsrooms in American journalism, with more than 200,000 subscribers and a deep bench of national security sources.

His prior reporting includes the leaked FBI report admitting the Bureau had “no intelligence indicating Antifa involvement” in the May 2020 George Floyd protests, the hacked JD Vance opposition dossier the corporate press refused to publish in September 2024, and a steady stream of disclosures about the U.S. national security state that no one else is consistently breaking.

When he writes that “sources tell me” the United States has been spying on the Vatican “for years,” the sentence carries the weight of a journalist whose bombshells routinely survive scrutiny.

The trigger for the new prioritization is now part of the public record. On April 12, in a Truth Social post I covered at the time, Trump called Leo “WEAK on Crime, and terrible for Foreign Policy,” citing the pope’s criticism of the Iran war.

The first American pope, a U.S. citizen by birth, responded the next day with three words: “I am not afraid.”  (more...)
