🔥 Abortion Is a Right?! 

In this wide-ranging and provocative conversation, Yaron Brook explores Ayn Rand’s philosophy of Objectivism — the morality of reason, individual rights, and freedom.

He tackles the ethics of abortion, the meaning of objective morality, and why a minimal state — not anarchy or socialism — is the only moral political system.

Yaron challenges the false dichotomy between left and right, defends reason over faith, and analyzes the deep philosophical roots of Western civilization — from Aristotle to John Locke, the Enlightenment, and today’s conflicts between secularism and religious fundamentalism.

He also previews his upcoming book, Christianity versus the West, and shares details of his current speaking tour in Portugal.

Heritage, Tucker & Fuentes -- The Right Imploding | Yaron Brook Show
🎙️ Recorded live November 2, 2025

The Right Is Imploding: Heritage, Tucker, Fuentes & the Anti-Enlightenment Crusade 
--See [part 1](https://youtube.com/live/do4bbtiiLFg) for first 20 minutes.

The Right is eating itself alive.

Once defenders of Western values and liberty, major conservative institutions like the Heritage Foundation are now flirting with nationalism, religion, and outright anti-Enlightenment ideas — led by figures like Tucker Carlson and Nick Fuentes.

In this fiery episode, Yaron Brook breaks down how the American Right is imploding — why the “national conservative” movement has become a moral and philosophical betrayal of freedom — and what it means for the future of the West.

👉 Watch Yaron expose the hypocrisy, tribalism, and moral decay infecting today’s Right — and what a real defense of capitalism and reason demands.
