In this explosive episode of The Backlash, host Rebecca Hargraves sits down with Daniel McAdams, Executive Director of the Ron Paul Institute for Peace and Prosperity and longtime advisor to Congressman Ron Paul, to break down the battles shaping our world today.
We cover the two-year anniversary of October 7th, the U.S.–Israel relationship, and how younger Republicans are rejecting endless wars — leaving the “party of war” scrambling for answers. McAdams reveals why he believes the Constitution has been reduced to a PR tool, the state of government overreach in free speech (including the Jimmy Kimmel scandal), and where things really stand in the Ukraine–Russia conflict.
From boomers to normies, from Washington to Tel Aviv, we ask: is America waking up to the costs of empire — or doubling down on destruction?
