For more than five years, Antifa and other leftist groups have terrorized America’s blue cities, turning places like Portland into war zones. From riots and assaults to arson and intimidation, their violence has only escalated — and now it’s inspiring political assassins, including the killer of Charlie Kirk. Even worse, Democrats have provided cover and funding for these extremist networks, allowing them to thrive unchecked. The evidence is clear: this is not random chaos, but a sustained campaign of left-wing terror.

On this episode of The Spectacle Podcast, host Scott McKay is joined by Daniel Greenfield as they expose the left’s growing wave of domestic terror, from Antifa’s reign of violence in Portland to the Democrats who bankroll them. They also trace how the Charlie Kirk assassin drew inspiration from these groups, revealing the disturbing link between street violence and political murder. Tune in for a look at how the left’s militant wing has reshaped America’s cities and threatens our future.

Kamala Harris has hit the road on a book tour, but instead of offering real reflection, she’s doubling down on excuses. In a recent interview, Harris was pressed on why she didn’t choose a gay running mate in last year’s election, and her awkward response is now making headlines. After brushing off speculation about running for California Governor, Harris still faces questions about whether she will run for president again in 2028, setting up the possibility of a future showdown with Gavin Newsom.

On this episode of The Spectacle Podcast, host Scott McKay is joined by Daniel Greenfield as they break down Harris’s mounting failures, her reliance on identity politics, and why her latest book tour is exposing more weakness than strength. They also look ahead to 2028, discussing who might emerge as contenders on the Democratic side, from Harris herself to rivals like Gavin Newsom, and what this means for the party’s future direction. Tune in for a sharp analysis of Harris’s missteps and the battle lines already being drawn for the next presidential race.

From a teleprompter glitch to the escalator jab, Trump mocked global elites and then turned serious, hammering the UN over immigration failures and its deal with UNRWA in Gaza. His warning was clear: the U.S. will not bankroll policies that undermine sovereignty or reward terrorism. Additionally, Trump pointed to ongoing, unresolved communications with Hamas over a permanent ceasefire.

After falsely claiming on national television that Charlie Kirk’s assassin was a MAGA supporter, Jimmy Kimmel’s late-night show was suspended by Disney and ABC. Although his show has returned, boycotts continue as major broadcasters like Sinclair Broadcast Group and Nexstar Media Group refuse to air it. For many viewers, Kimmel’s ratings and content were never strong to begin with, and his downfall reflects the consequences of spreading political hate. Adding to the pressure, FCC Commissioner Brendan Carr has raised questions about whether broadcasters that continue to air politically charged disinformation should face scrutiny when it comes to license renewals. His comments signal that Kimmel’s suspension may not just be a cultural flashpoint, but a regulatory one as well.

On this episode of The Spectacle Podcast, hosts Melissa Mackenzie and Scott McKay break down the suspension, the backlash, and what Kimmel’s struggles say about the state of late-night television, the FCC, and America’s political culture. Tune in to hear their discussion!

Venezuela has become more than a failed state — its regime now functions as a drug manufacturing operation with ties to cartels and criminal networks.

Following the murder of Charlie Kirk, the internet exploded with conspiracies as to who was really involved. Why did someone confess immediately after and on the scene? Is it just a coincidence that the question asked was about transgender mass shooters before the bullet was fired? The FBI had Charlie Kirk’s assassin on their radar. The Left continues to create conspiracies to mislead the investigation, but one thing is true: more than one person is involved in this horrific crime.

Conservatives around the world are mourning the death of Charlie Kirk, and they refuse to let his voice die with him. For years, left political figures have ignited a violent fire with their rhetoric, labeling Trump and others as “criminals” and “facists”, but the left’s hate only fuels and strengthens Charlie’s mission. The FBI made the investigation into Charlie’s murder a complete disaster. After arresting the “decoy” who pleaded guilty as a distraction, the true murderer’s father acted on his convictions and alerted Utah authorities. How do we move on in a productive way? Silence and lack of action is not the answer.

On this episode of The Spectacle Podcast, hosts Melissa Mackenzie and Scott McKay discuss the murder and investigation into Charlie Kirk’s death, the political voices that ignited the idea to turn to violence, and the horrible things said in the aftermath. Tune in to hear their discussion!
