The Auron MacIntyre Show

After decades of brutal race and gender politics from the Left, conservatives began treating identity itself as toxic. That reaction is understandable after fighting a sinister ideology for years, but ignoring identity is not an option. Human beings need a firm sense of who they are and where they belong. Progressives exploited that impulse in twisted, artificial ways, but the impulse remains natu...

Karmelo Anthony has been found guilty of the murder of Austin Metcalf. The verdict can never compensate for Metcalf's death, but it is good news that justice has been done in a high-profile case charged with racial tensions. Matthew Williams will join me to discuss the verdict as well as a big win for the Trump administration around the issue of disparate impact.  Follow on: Apple: https://podcast...

Los Angles mayoral challenger Spencer Pratt was making big waves pushing back against liberal orthodoxy in the notoriously liberal city. Despite a promising run, Pratt seems to have lost the primary in an extremely suspicious election. Navy veteran and Clairmont Lincoln Fellow Tom Sauer joins me to discuss the L.A. election and the continued turmoil over the Iran peace deal.  Follow on: Apple: htt...

Former Commander of the Border Patrol Greg Bovino joins me to discuss his push to resume mass deportations. Bovino explains the full-spectrum strategy that was implemented when the administration began deportation and why it was so effective in closing the border. We discuss why that strategy was placed on hold by the forces arrayed against the deportation mission. Bovino also lays out why deporta...

Bodycam footage from the United Kingdom has turned Henry Nowak’s death from a local outrage into a national indictment. The footage appears to show officers handcuffing an 18-year-old stabbing victim, dismissing his pleas for help, and treating him as the suspect while he bled to death. Nowak, an 18-year-old from Essex, reportedly told officers, “I can’t breathe,” and “I’ve been stabbed.” Officers...

The second Trump administration started off with incredible momentum. In addition to the fast pace of executive orders, the Right was gaining cultural momentum. People no longer had to hide their support of MAGA, and mainstream outlets were writing resentful stories about how fashionable Trump fans had become. Now, the administration can't even keep has-been musicians from publicly abandoning the...

Martin Heidegger is considered one of the most important philosophers of all time, but his works are also regarded as impenetrable. One of his more approachable writings and one of his best is his essay on the nature of technology. The piece reveals a thinker who is less worried about technology itself and more worried about the mindset technology creates in the human being. Philosophy scholar Mic...

Christopher Nolan is one of Hollywood's last great filmmakers. Many of his previous movies have even been considered conservative or reactionary for the different themes he has addressed. But Nolan's new version of "The Odyssey" looks to be filled with woke tropes and modern rewriting. Author James Keena joins me to discuss why everyone in Hollywood is so desperate to change the source material th...

The hicklib is usually a social outcast, a failson who needs a moral explanation for why he hates the community he never fit into. His resentment searches for a theory that will dignify his rage, and the progressive missionaries installed in local institutions are happy to provide one. The hicklib has become one of rural America’s petty plagues. But as the value of college degrees collapses, a new...

Popular communist streamer Hasan Piker is in big trouble. Piker has been subpoenaed by the DOJ for his possible connections to the government of Cuba. Even worse, Piker is so dumb that he is blurting out his inside knowledge about China funding the radicalization of progressive groups in the U.S. John Dee joins me to discuss Piker's fate as well as the victory of Ken Paxton in the Republican prima...

Donald Trump has announced that serious peace negotiations are under way to end the war with Iran. Several key details are still up in the air, but you can tell the negotiations are serious because all of Trump's new neoconservative admirers are turning on him in response to the announcement. We'll dive into the breakup of the "New MAGA" coalition, along with some concerning remarks Marco Rubio ju...

Recently, a slew of "teen takeovers" has shut down areas of major U.S. cities, like Washington, D.C., Tampa, and Chicago. Stories are surfacing about malls banning "teens" because they are making shopping unsafe. We'll discuss why we are consistently seeing these euphemisms used to avoid addressing minority crime in the United States.  Follow on: Apple: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the-au...

The artificial intelligence boom has become one of the biggest engines of the American economy. It has also triggered growing backlash against the data centers that make the boom possible. Tech moguls have rushed to build giant warehouses packed with the computing power needed to run AI systems, but they have done almost nothing to explain to ordinary Americans why those facilities deserve so much...

Ezra Klein of the New York Times recently released a podcast about liberalism in crisis. In a surprisingly insightful moment, Klein recognized that liberalism was failing because it had been severed from its traditions, but Klein spent the rest of the episode explaining why he hates so many of the people who founded those traditions. We'll dive in and analyze why this inability to reconcile the pa...

Online Catholic personality Bishop Barron recently interviewed former leftist turned centrist Dave Rubin. The discussion felt like an odd relic ripped out of 2016. Both men seemed confused about the political landscape in front of them and why the moderately liberal utopia they envisioned never came to pass. The fact that a Catholic bishop also made no mention of Rubin's lifestyle or his use of su...

The construction of AI data centers is exploding across the United States, but many communities are rejecting them. In addition to questions about environmental impacts, many residents near data centers are experiencing terrible noise and large increases in their power bills. There has also been very little discussion of what these centers actually do to benefit Americans while increasing the like...

The fact that marriage in America is on the decline is concerning, but few people understand how deep the problem goes. Recent data shows the dismal marriage numbers in the United States. The percentage of married couples, average age at which couples are marrying, and number of children are all in catastrophic decline. The numbers represent a dramatic collapse in the institution that serves as a...

As we continue our reading of Niccolo Machiavelli's "The Prince," we examine the political theorist's chapter on glory and why it is valuable to the ruler. Machiavelli encourages great undertakings and the appearance of virtuous behavior, but always with an eye to their political utility, not their moral value. We'll also explore Machiavelli's warning about fortresses and how it applies to figures...

Alex Jones began his small news organization as a fringe outfit covering what are derisively called "conspiracy theories" but eventually grew to become one of the largest right-wing pundits in America. Along the way, Jones made some wild missteps but also had a surprising number of correct predictions. Jones was one of the first personalities to be deplatformed and face the full brunt of technolog...

Pro-life advocates have won big victories under Donald Trump, but they have always been unsatisfied with his public priorities. Activists are pushing for a ban of the abortion pill right before midterm elections because they have been unsuccessful with referendums on the state level. What many fail to understand is that despite the legal changes, the American culture and the financial system have...

In our modern world, it is very common to conflate motives we do not understand with some form of mental illness. This is understandable when it comes to horrific crime. Someone like a serial killer is so violent and twisted that it is hard for us to comprehend his actions, and there is certainly a fair amount of mental illness that is a factor. But today people often use this explanation when it...

Internet streamer Hasan Piker declared the United States a "white supremacist county" during a recent appearance. Piker is a spoiled rich idiot, but in his statements, he ironically echoed President Trump's remarks about America's Anglo-Saxon heritage. We'll look at what Piker gets wrong but also what he accidentally gets right when describing human nature.  We'll also look at Alexander Dugin's bi...

Vivek Ramaswamy has recently been caught on camera making two critical political errors. The candidate for governor of Ohio recently announced that he did not think Ohio was the best state and also explained why Jesus was not the one true son of God. Pastor Michael Clary has written a thoughtful piece on why Ramaswamy cannot conserve an American tradition he does not believe in. We will also discu...

As we continue our reading of Niccolo Machiavelli's "The Prince," we reach what has probably become his most famous passage. Is it better for a ruler to be feared by his people or loved by his people? Is there a difference between fear and hatred? We'll also dive into Machiavelli's distinction between fox behavior and lion behavior and why the ideal ruler embodies both.   Follow on: Apple: https:/...

Donald Trump has survived another assassination attempt by an alleged deranged progressive. Thankfully, Cole Allen was never able to get a clear shot at the president, but the allegation that another radical leftist managed to smuggle a long gun into the event site should alarm everyone. Despite multiple assassination attempts against Trump and the tragic assassination of Charlie Kirk, progressive...
