Jeff Lax on Education, Antisemitism, and Advocacy (10 min) | 12-03-25
Jeff Lax, CUNY Professor & staunch Pro-Israel Activist, calls into the show to talk about the controversy surrounding New York City principal Arin Rush's decision to deny Holocaust survivor Sami Steigmann the opportunity to speak at MS 447. The principal's reasons were allegedly based on Sami's comments about Israel and Hamas, which Lax and Sid argue are non-existent and discriminatory. They criticize Mayor Eric Adams and other officials for supporting this decision, suggesting it reflects broader issues of antisemitism and lack of support for the Jewish community in New York. The conversation also touches on the role of federal law and the potential revocation of federal funds from the school. Lax emphasizes the need for strong advocacy against such discriminatory practices.

Big Brother Is Watching | 12-03-25
Its Warrior Wednesday, Lionel and Lynn Shaw expose the "chaos on the hill," accusing Congress of staging a "dog and pony show" to delay child safety legislation like the Kids Online Safety Act (KOSA) and protect "trillion-dollar platforms". Crime is the absolute number one issue, yet the justice system is deemed "utterly reactive—and often a joke". Lionel presents a radical, proactive solution: Since a shocking 1% of the population accounts for over 60% of all violent crime, he argues we must stop complaining and demand that unavoidable monitoring—"Big Brother" and "mega data suctioning" by firms like Palantir—be utilized as a protective shield to track, target, and arrest these known, habitual repeat offenders. The goal? To stop waiting for the next victim and "start scaring the hell out of the criminals". This episode also covers why you must comply with police demands ("you can beat the rap but you can't beat the ride"), targeting "real bad guys" like the mafia, dissecting Miranda rights myths, and features raw stories from retired officers on the front lines.
