## Resource

In this episode of No Way, Jose!, host Jose Galison welcomes back journalist Matt Wolfson for the latest installment of their weekly series, The Weekly Wolfson. Titled “Terrorizing Till We’re All ‘Terrorists’,” the conversation dives deep into Wolfson’s new piece for the Libertarian Institute, “‘Terror’ as Technique in American Policymaking.” Together, Jose and Matt unpack how the label “terrorism” has become a powerful rhetorical tool for otherizing designated enemies, exploring the language and framing that preceded its modern dominance, and tracing its evolution across the past several decades of U.S. foreign and domestic policy. The discussion pulls no punches on how the term is wielded today by both left and right, at home and abroad, often with striking irony: those quickest to brand others as terrorists frequently exhibit the very behaviors and policies most deserving of the label. Matt’s sharp geopolitical and ethnopolitical analysis pairs with Jose’s signature no-holds-barred style, making this episode essential listening for anyone tired of weaponized language and eager to understand the mechanics of manufactured consent in American policymaking. Tune in for a candid, eye-opening breakdown that challenges conventional narratives on terror, power, and hypocrisy.
