Moment of Truth

In this milestone 200th episode of Moment of Truth, Nick sits down with Jack Posobiec, host of Human Events, to talk about the two issues at heart of American politics right now: populism and power. Jack explains his own brush with rampant migrant and how it caused the decline of his hometown, Norristown, PA. He also maps out the conservative movement’s challenges, the power of the intelligence community, and the fight against unchecked AI and mass migration. Posobiec reflects on Trump’s second term, the importance of wielding executive power, and the cultural shifts driving America’s political landscape. With candid anecdotes about Steve Bannon and sharp critiques of libertarianism’s political irrelevance, this episode is a must-watch for understanding the America First movement. Tune in for a compelling conversation on reclaiming communities, defeating globalism, and crushing communist ideologies.
