Contra Mundum

Tim Walz is the very worst governor in the United States of America.In one legislative session he transformed a moderately purple state into one of the most far left places in the entire country. He presided over the most destructive riots of our lifetimes. And now has been made the Democratic Vice Presidential nominee.We discuss this plus the thing that enabled him to destroy this state: mass migration.

Over the last week, we have been subject to the most intense propaganda campaign since 2020.Many have been tricked into believing the laughably unlikeable Vice President, who could not summon 1% of Democratic primary voters to support her in 2020 is now SOMEHOW an electoral JUGGERNAUT capable of sweeping the electoral college.Don't blackpill. STOP IT. Keep your head.We are going to win.This is a potpourri episode. Many topics will be covered.

Joe Biden has dropped out of the presidential race and endorsed his vice president, Kamala Harris.She is a singularly stupid and malevolent figure in American politics.Not only does she speak like an fifth-grader doing a book report on what she failed to read, her public career is marked by intentional destruction of anything that is true, good, and beautiful.She cannot become president of the United States.

Days after Donald Trump's life was miraculously spared, he addressed the RNC with an uncharacteristically moving and heartfelt speech.Is Trump a new man? What does this moment signal for the future?We also discuss the selection of Sen. J.D. Vance as Vice Presidential nominee and what we know about the attempt on Trump's life now almost a week later.

Donald Trump was nearly assassinated this afternoon.We react.

In our third and final episode on Neil Shenvi’s “woke right” article, we discuss his assertions that the dissident Christian Right is racist, that we are very dangerous people, and no different than a mirror image of the woke.Join us as we show that liberal anti-wokeness has no positive answer for it and is doomed to fail.

Stephen Wolfe recently gave a speech at the New Christendom Conference against multiculturalism and FOR a distinctly Anglo-Protestant America.We will watch and see what all the fuss is about!

President Trump and President Biden faced off tonight in a televised debate. Did Joe Biden survive it? Did the drugs wear off? Just how bad was CNN? Did this debate change anyone's mind?

The liberal is incapable of understanding rightist thought.They are simply not able to comprehend reality outside of the liberal framework of individualism, egalitarianism, and "rights."Any argument you make about the nature of power dynamics, hierarchy, political order, etc. will sound like Charlie Brown's mom talking.Neil Shenvi's article on the "woke right" demonstrates this acutely.We dig into it a second time today. https://shenviapologetics.com/what-is...

Recently CJay has come under attack for his Heritage America posting.Neil Shenvi wrote a long screed accusing him of being the bizarre neologism "woke right": https://shenviapologetics.com/what-is...We discuss!

It has been a rough 24 hours for "we still have a Constitutional government" believers.President Trump has just been convicted in a show trial in New York City. No one has really any understanding of what exactly he was accused of or why it is a felony. What does this mean for our country and the future?

Internet poaster Ryan Turnipseed was recently the subject of excommunication in an LCMS over his associations online, recording his confrontation with his pastor, and his criticism of, frankly, perverted changes made to his denomination's catechism.Ryan joins us to discuss what has happened to him, what will happen next, and what the future holds for this important conservative Protestant denomination.

Darryl Cooper and Ron Dodson join us.We will discuss Israel/Gaza, Ukraine/Russia, dispensationalism, and other current events.

Protests continue to rage on college campuses throughout the United States over Israel and Gaza.Apolitical frat-boys, without a dog in the fight, but who abhor disgusting leftoid freaks, have begun to fight back.We discuss what this means.Plus, we dig into an interview between John Mearsheimer and Judge Napolitano:   • Prof. John Mearsheimer : Genocide, Fr...  

Protests on Ivy League and other major university campuses over the Israeli response to the Hamas attacks has been raging for a few weeks.Andrew and Pastor Toby Sumpter recently exchanged opinions about what the motivating force for the leftist activism is, resulting in a blog post by Pastor Sumpter: https://tobyjsumpter.com/anti-white-h...Ron Dodson joins Andrew to discuss the issue.Ron's article mentioned in the episode can be found at:https://americanreformer.org/2023/11/just-what-is-israel/

This week Donald Trump announced that he opposes a Federal abortion ban, saying laws governing this issue belong at the state level. He has also opposed the IVF ban in Alabama and his surrogate Kari Lake is pushing the state of Arizona to allow abortion access after a recent court decision that effectively bans it.What is a Christian to think of these things? Can you vote for a presidential candidate that is not consistently pro-life? Is the GOP becoming a pro-choice lite party?To support the show (and to get access to our subscriber-only episodes) please go to contramundumpodcast.com

Notorious Australian theologian Michael Bird has written against Christian Nationalism.TheOtherPaul read it so you didn't have to, and he joins us to tear apart yet another misfire against basical Protestant political theology.

The Daily Wire's most popular personality, Candace Owens, was right before Holy Week, allegedly for saying "Christ is king." Her firing has set off a large reaction, especially among Christians who hold to their faith in the public square. It has become clear to all that you can publicly be a Christian in mainstream conservatism, but you may not treat the Christian faith the way the Bible does—that it is exclusively true and the only way of salvation for all men.What does this mean for the immediate future of both Christianity and rightwing political thought in the United States?To support the show, please go to contramundumpodcast.com

Like many in the online right, we were once doctrinaire libertarians. The 2008 and 2012 Ron Paul campaigns drew us into something interesting and exciting, it challenged our way of looking at the world. We encountered Mises and Rothbard and what they had to say was a breath of fresh air.But why are we no longer of that world? What changed? Why are we the way that we are now?To find out how to support the show, please go to contramundumpodcast.com.

The phrase "Christ is King" is found (in various forms) in the New Testament, throughout Christian history and tradition, and has lately found a place in online discourse.But what does this phrase truly mean? How should Christians understand it? What does it have to do with Christian engagement in the political?We are joined by Ron Dodson to see just how far down this rabbit hole goes.Please go to contramundumpodcast.com to find out how you can support the show.

Pastor Dusty Deevers was recently sworn in to the Oklahoma State Senate and immediately brought forth several bills combating rampant degeneracy in Trashworld, including abolishing prenatal infanticide.Critics, even among many ostensibly conservative Christians, have vocally opposed his efforts, crying "you cannot legislate morality!"But what is law but the use of force to impose one morality over another? What is it about the postwar consensus that demands a supposedly neutral public sphere?To discuss these issues and more, we are joined by Senator Deevers.To support the show, please go to contramundumpodcast.comThank you!

In the Super Bowl Sunday, an evangelical group of mostly unknown funding released multiple ads, one featuring images of Christians washing the feet of women seeking abortions, LGBT people, illegal immigrants, Muslims, etc.What does this ad tell us about the priorities of those at the very top of the evangelical hierarchy? What do they think about regular evangelical people? Who are they trying to appeal to with this ad? What is it they are trying to accomplish?We also discussed Tucker's remarks after his Putin interview (and failed at playing the audio Sorry!)We also are happy to announce a new way to support the show at contramundumpodcast.com.Thank you for listening!

After Texas took bold steps to secure the border and insert immigration to the top of the national conversation, the GOP Senate, spearheaded by Senator James Lankford (Oklahoma), negotiated a compromise deal that would allow up to 5000 border encounters a day before the border could be shut down. All of this was in exchange for more tens billions to both Ukraine and Israel.When 60%+ of the country is in favor of mass deportation, much less an immediately closed border, such a compromise is an abject betrayal.To discuss what this means and the geopolitics driving it all, we are joined by writer and academic, Josiah Lippincott.NB: Josiah let one "non-family show" word slip!

This past year the Southern Baptist Convention disfellowshipped some churches with female pastors, a practice that is in direct conflict with both scripture and the SBC bylaws.But this feminist practice is far from eradicated from the SBC, nor are the pro-LGBT, and pro-race communist elements that nearly always overlap.So who will fight the good fight in the SBC? Can it be reformed? William Wolfe joins us to discuss.

After the Supreme Court ruled against Texas, Governor Abbott issued a statement declaring an invasion and invoking Texas's constitutional right to repel a foreign invasion. Within 24 hours, several GOP governors issued their public support and activated units to assist Texas.The Biden Administration gave an ultimatum giving Texas 24 hours to comply.What happens from here? We discuss.

Recently Alistair Begg advised a woman to attend her grandchild's wedding to an impossible woman, on the condition the grandchild knows what she thinks about it, and to buy them a gift.Why would someone who has taught the Bible for decades offer counsel such as this? What on earth is going on with him? How could someone get to the point where they think such advice is wise and godly?If Begg has been one of the best and most rock-solid ones we've had, what does this say about conservative evangelical pulpits in general?

Kevin DeYoung has sounded the alarm. "The Moscow Mood" is taking over American evangelicalism. Is it true that Doug Wilson is causing your sons to call others "wussys"? We discuss!https://clearlyreformed.org/on-culture-war-doug-wilson-and-the-moscow-mood/

Just how much did Elon Musk (and Candace Owens and Tucker Carlson) shift the discourse on Israel, Zionism, and anti-white race hatred?

Whenever you hear the phrase "Our Democracy" you know whatever comes next is going to be the most insane lib nonsense you have ever heard.What does this phrase mean? What is the "postwar consensus" that it represents?

Yesterday, Texas Governor Greg Abbott sent the Texas National Guard to occupy Eagle Pass, sealing it off from the Border Patrol. Is this the beginning of state defiance of a weakened federal government? Or is this just more nothing-ever-happens? American Reformer's Josh Abbotoy joins us to discuss.

It is well-known that evangelicals are the lone bulwark that stands in the way of total leftist dominance throughout America. From the outside, it is has been hard not to notice there seems to be a push to drive a wedge through this important voting bloc.Now there appears to be some solid evidence from the inside that this is definitely the case.

Tonight we discuss the year that was 2023, and all the insanity we can anticipate in 2024.

After an Algerian immigrant stabbed five, including three small children, Ireland erupted in a series of riots. MMA international superstar, Conor McGregor, emerged as the most vocal critic of the globalist occupational regime flooding the emerald isle with third-world migrants.Is this just a minor flash point that will be quickly forgotten, or is this the start of something bigger?

Donald Trump has won the Iowa Caucus decisively. What does this mean for the 2024 election? What does it mean for American politics more generally? Why did DeSantis fail so spectacularly? All this and more.

On November 29, the man regarded as the greatest foreign policy strategist of the 20th Century died at 100 years old.If you knew nothing about him aside from what you hear today in the Regime Media, you would think all he ever did was bomb Cambodia. Not that he helped Nixon extricate the United States from the Vietnam War, nor that he guided American Presidents through the Cold War avoiding direct conflict—including nuclear war—for decades.But does the Regime-approved leftwing opinion of the man mean he was actually good? We discuss.

What was your favorite Mike Pence memory?The Robert E. Lee Humiliation Ritual

The Nicene Creed was composed at a council called by a Christian Prince, the first Christian Emperor of Rome, Constantine I.Constantine used the power and resources of the state to legalize the Christian religion and then to gather the leadership of the church to settle doctrinal controversy.The Nicene Creed, one of the core confessional statements throughout the history of the church is inherently anti-pluralistic. Its very composition was out of an environment where the ruling power was explicitly Christian.Can those who oppose Christian Nationalism, and the desire for Christians to wield political power as Christians in good faith confess this creed?We discuss this question and ancient Christian politics with the poaster, The Other Paul.

"There are decades where nothing happens, and there are weeks where decades happen." -Vladimir LeninIsrael is about to launch of full-scale invasion into Gaza in response to Hamas' attack.
