  • The Republicans’ election loss: Who’s really to blame?

    Republicans suffered a crushing defeat in the U.S. midterms, but was the war with Iran really to blame or is a powerful faction within the Republican Party using the losses to turn America against Israel?

    Emily Schrader examines the growing influence of Tucker Carlson, Matt Walsh and what she calls the “Qatar First” movement, accusing prominent conservative voices of exploiting President Trump's electoral defeat to undermine the U.S.-Israel alliance. As Vice President J.D. Vance blames the Iran war and calls for changes in America's relationship with Israel, Schrader challenges his interpretation of the election results and questions whether his diplomatic efforts have strengthened the Islamic Republic. She also investigates Russia's documented efforts to influence American conservative media and Qatar's extensive investments in U.S. universities, lobbying and diplomacy, raising concerns about foreign influence over American politics.
    All this is happening as Iran's highly enriched uranium remains unaccounted for, and Tehran continues to threaten American interests across the Middle East. With the Republican Party increasingly divided and Iran's nuclear threat unresolved, is the greatest danger to America's alliance with Israel now coming from within the American right? Watch today's episode and let us know what you think in the comments below!

  • Election Interference: How Iranian-Linked Networks Exploit Israelis

    Iran may be trying to sabotage Israel's upcoming elections and its most dangerous weapon isn't a missile, but fake Israelis spreading fear and distrust online.

    Emily Schrader sits down with Golden Owl intelligence analyst Tal Hagen to expose a suspected Iranian-linked influence network operating across social media ahead of Israel's October 27 elections. A new investigation reveals fake Israeli profiles, coordinated disinformation campaigns and attempts to convince Israelis that their government, military and democratic institutions cannot be trusted. But the operation isn't simply about defeating Netanyahu or supporting his opponents. According to Hagen, the real objective is to turn Israelis against one another and convince the public that even future military operations could be political false flags. The interview also explores how foreign regimes exploit social media algorithms, why tech companies struggle to stop these networks and how ordinary users can identify suspicious accounts before falling for their manipulation. With Israeli elections just days away and American midterms approaching, how much of the political outrage flooding our social media feeds is real and how much is being manufactured by hostile foreign powers?
