Subscribe to The Ricochet PodcastSubscribe

Even a pessimist would have reason experience surprise and consternation by the extent of our institutional crises. It's revealed that American students know nothing of the history of the Holocaust and the story of the Jewish people in its aftermath. We've seen our government progressively possessed by the whims of influencer representatives. Even today's guest Yuval Levin, who's painstakingly documented this descent, is a bit bewildered. He joins Rob, James and Peter as they cover everything from Jewish students being forced to hide in a library, to priorities for Israel and of course on to the People's House and the hopes we may yet hold out for it.

- Audio from today's opening is new Speaker Mike Johnson's first address to Congress.

Hosted by James Lileks, Peter Robinson, and Rob Long, with guest Yuval Levin

    I love Peter Robinson but is there a more nieve person in America today in regard to what has happened on college campuses and in our culture? He's at Stanford for crying out loud and he constantly sounds shocked by every insane event that takes place. He really does seem like a guy who sees the best in everyone and fails to notice the insanity

    Yeah he doesn't just SOUND shocked, he SAYS he's shocked.

    Over and over and over.

    Aren't most of those most responsible for the Oct 7 attack, living in Qatar? That could be the main problem with taking them out.

    Someone needs to remind Rob and Yuval that none of this happened during the Trump years.

    Trump was actually pretty good about the culture.
