Elle Hardy, author of Beyond Belief: How Pentecostal Christianity Is Taking Over The World, on the new form of Christianity that has links to the rise of Jair Bolsonaro and Donald Trump. She discusses the fundamentals of Pentecostalism which she calls ‘Born Again+’ and what makes it differ from the more traditional branches of Christianity such as Catholicism and Protestantism, why the religion is growing rapidly across the world and why it has a strong appeal, its origins in the dirty wars of the 1970s that the United States was involved in in Latin America and much more.
The Jimmy Dore Show Little progress is being made in negotiations between the United States and Iran over the latter’s nuclear program, and that may be by design. The U.S. is demanding a complete dismantling of Iran’s nuclear enrichment program, which is a non-starter for the Iranians. Meanwhile, the U.S. appears to have reneged on a promise to get a ceasefire and humanitarian aid into Gaza in exchange for the release of the last American hostage, so Hamas — and by extension Iran — feel the U.S. cannot be trusted in negotiations. Jimmy Dore and Americans’ Comedian Kurt Metzger discuss how Israel appears to be orchestrating a U.S. attack on Iran that few Americans have any interest in.
