About this episode

Joe Pags discusses the rise of socialist ideas in NYC and election interference with guest Ralph Pezzullo.

Pags sounds off on what he sees as a growing embrace of anti-American ideas on the left, reacting to New York City mayoral nominee Zohran Mamdani's proposals to cap profits and expand socialist-style economic policies. Pags breaks down, with real-world math, why he believes profit caps don't work in a free-market economy and what they could mean for businesses and consumers. He also reacts to Texas Rep. James Talarico's sharp criticism of law enforcement and weighs in on Rep. Jasmine Crockett's comments tying the World Cup to race and politics. Then, author Ralph Pezzullo joins the show to discuss Stolen Elections, a book inspired by the findings of former CIA officer Gary Berntsen. Pezzullo explains how election interference has occurred around the world, the methods he says have been used to influence outcomes, and what can be done to better protect future elections.
