Weekly Roundup: Tucker Carlson’s Neo-Nazi Interview Sparks Outrage (Bradley Onishi and Daniel Miller; Straight White American Jesus podcast)

In this weekly roundup, we discuss the recent inflammatory interview between Tucker Carlson and Daryl Cooper, where Cooper provides a sympathetic take on Hitler and Nazi Germany. 

The conversation touches on the sweeping implications of Russian influence in right-wing American media, as evidenced by the funding behind prominent figures like Tim Poole. 

We also address the unsettling stance of JD Vance on childcare and family roles, and his troubling comments regarding post-menopausal women. Additionally, the episode covers updates on Trump’s legal battles and the shifting political landscape in the run-up to the 2024 U.S. election.

Bystander. Is this who you are?

80 years of American presidents rejected the despicable and hate-filled ideologies of Nazism… until Donald Trump. Trump’s regurgitates Adolf Hitler’s language and the GOP defends it.

Weekly Roundup: The City Banning Gay People and Trump’s Vermin Comments (Bradley Onishi and Daniel Miller; Straight White American Jesus podcast)

Brad begins by discussing the history of Murfreesboro, TN, where a city ordinance banned homosexuality in public. As Brad recounts, this isn’t the first time the city has been in the news. A decade ago, citizens tried to prevent the construction of a mosque on the grounds that Islam isn’t a religion. Brad draws on scholarship to outline how Christian nationalists employ a framework wherein the USA should be a place of limitless freedom for them, and limited life for everyone else.

In the second segment he dissects Trump’s vermin comments – and how they connect to Nazi rhetoric. For Brad the local and the national collide in the Murfreesboro ordinance and Trump’s dangerous rhetoric. It is a mater of little fires everywhere preparing little fascists everywhere to accept fascism everywhere.

In the final segment, Brad offers a positive story – the faith of the UAW boss Sean Fain and what it means for “branding” faith in the Midwest and beyond.

Saturation of Church in State - Aron Ra on YouTube

This was Aron's presentation at the Kentucky Freethought Convention on Sept 3rd, 2022, in which he presents facts about the influence of Christian Nationalists, and their allies in the Republican Party, on politics in the U.S., and what their aims are, in their own words: to impose religion-based laws on everyone, to eliminate deviants such as LGBTQ, non-Evangelicals, and non-believers and freethinkers.

Christian Nationalism's roots in Nazism

The culture war as their preparation for civil war

Their stated goal to overturn democracy and replace it with a theocracy — "biblical law" based upon Leviticus.

Their influence upon the Republican Party.
