The Breakdown with Shaun King

Have you seen the gleeful videos posted by Israelis where they gleefully film themselves committing genocide? Well, another one went viral 2 days ago, and it showed Israeli's blowing up the largest university in Gaza - as in the entire university - and they said it took 350 bombs that they placed all over the campus - which was clearly empty and not being used by anyone. So, why did they blow it u...

We live in a time where nations around the world have charged Israel with the genocide of over 30,000 Palestinian people, but the United States, which openly supports the genocide, and defends it at every turn, is rushing to put one of the nation's leading the charge against it, on its terror list. The Houthis, during this entire genocide, have not killed a single soul. It does not appear that the...

As you may know, South Africa brought a genocide case against Israel before The International Court of Justice in The Hague, Netherlands. And yesterday, before the court, South Africa masterfully argued their case, and truly allowed the facts to simply speak for themselves. Today, pitifully, Israel attempted to defend itself, but we will have to wait to see the results. Because of the emergency na...

Last night, my attorneys filed a legal brief with the Meta Oversight Board to not only have my Instagram account restored, but for them to change their policies, and address and correct the gross discrimination against Pro-Palestinian voices on their platforms. Let me unpack and explain it. To listen to today’s FULL EPISODE of The Breakdown go now to Apple Podcasts or Spotify and search for “The B...

Today please allow me to explain the most fundamental differences between the ICC (The International Criminal Court) and the ICJ (The International Court of Justice) and how it all applies to the genocide and war crimes of Israel. Let me unpack and explain it. To listen to today’s FULL EPISODE of The Breakdown go now to Apple Podcasts or Spotify and search for “The Breakdown with Shaun King.” Subs...

The past 24 hours in Gaza were absolutely atrocious. Every day is bad, but some days are horrible and other days are somehow even worse. Yesterday and last night were such moments. And the WHOLE WORLD knows who the dangerous organizations in this moment truly are. Let me unpack and explain it.

I want to unpack and explain today why I think the actions of Yemen are the single most important actions happening in the world right now that have the best chance to stop the genocide of the Palestinian people. I will be very specific on why, but I need you to hear this today. To listen to today’s FULL EPISODE of The Breakdown go now to Apple Podcasts or Spotify and search for “The Breakdown wit...

Welcome back to Season #6 of The Breakdown with Shaun King. Tens of thousands of you are here for the first time - and tens of thousands more of you have been here listening for the past 6 years. Until this genocide ends, I am dedicating every single episode to Palestine. We're also going to bring back The Breakdown Live - my Twitch video show unpacking and explaining the news. Let me catch you up...

Virtually every war crimes expert in the world now agrees that Israel is committing THOUSANDS of war crimes violations against Palestinians. I am posting these violations on my Instagram day and night. But what I need you to understand is that Joe Biden is also committing war crimes. And should be charged for them. Let me unpack and explain it. To listen to today’s FULL EPISODE of The Breakdown go...

The genocide of Palestinians from the hands and bombs of Israel and the United States is still fully in motion. Which makes me taking this episode to talk about myself frustrating, but for my own record, I must document what went down. I was the #1 trending topic in the United States after people first lied and said I took sole credit for freeing the American hostage, Natalie Raanan. That never ha...

America is often a very embarrassing place to be from. And for me, yesterday was one of those days where our nation humiliated itself on the world stage when the United States was the ONLY nation in the world that voted against allowing humanitarian aid into Gaza for Palestinians. And then they vetoed it. Let me unpack and explain it. To listen to today’s FULL EPISODE of The Breakdown go now to Ap...

 Right now, in real-time, we are witnessing ethnic cleansing unfold. We are already knew that this is what it was, but the world's experts all now agree - what Israel is doing to Palestine is ethnic cleansing, genocide, and Apartheid. The United Nations declared that it is an "ethnic cleansing emergency" this weekend. And the United States is funding it. And sending the bombs being used to slaught...

What we are watching unfold in real time right now is not a war. It's not a conflict. It's genocide. It's ethnic cleansing. It's Apartheid. And it's settler colonialism. Let me unpack and explain it.

Yesterday, almost like a trained actor, Joe Biden looked at the cameras, and said "never in his life," did he think he would see videos and photos of Palestinians behead Israeli babies. And then feigned being traumatized. Only for The White House to admit just a few hours later that he made all of that up. He never saw any such photos or videos. This is SO DANGEROUS. Let me unpack and explain it....

Hey everyone, It's Shaun here, and today we are bringing you The Momentum Advisor's latest podcast episode. It is a personal story that's close to our hearts. Homecoming for Allan and Tiffany looked very different this year as their alma mater experienced a violent shooting on campus and therefore all Homecoming festivities were cancelled for the first time in over 100 years. This episode talks ab...

Hey everyone, it's Shaun here, and today we're bringing you a throwback episode of The Momentum Advisors Show. This one originally aired on August 20th, and it's all about a place with a rich history and a unique spirit—Martha's Vineyard. Now, Martha's Vineyard holds a special place in many hearts, especially in the Black community. It's a place known for its rich Black history, and it's often cel...

You may have seen the viral video of the young rapper, Sexxy Red, saying how much she loves Donald Trump and wants to see him back in office. It's all over my timelines, and about 85% of the responses I see are HARSH, 5% are celebratory, and the remaining people are trying to make a point that I hope to make today. At least try to learn something from her. Because A LOT of people feel just like sh...

You've heard me say this before, but it's VERY hard to know a moment in history when you are living in it. Well, we continue to live in a very peculiar and disturbing time in American history - in the shadows of thousands of people trying to overthrow the American government, Republicans have now cannibalized one of their own, and voted out their own Speaker of the House, Kevin McCarthy. That has...

Last night I learned something truly preposterous. Tennessee State University, which is one of the most important Black colleges in America, is owed $2.1 BILLION by the state and federal government after a federal research project determined they, and other Black colleges, were systemically underfunded for years. This is the literal definition of systemic racism. Today I want to unpack this story...

Just last month, Philadelphia Police Officer Mark Dial brutally shot and killed a young man who was sitting in his parked car. And to cover it all up, the cops lied and said that the victim, 27 year old Eddie Irizarry, got out of his car and lunged at police with a knife - giving the city, and the nation the impression that the shooting was justified and in self-defense. Except police made the ent...
