## Resource

A radical anti-government extremist was arrested after setting off an incendiary device outside a federal building in New York City. Glenn breaks down the radical views the man holds, which include anti-Immigration and Customs Enforcement and socialist views, and breaks down why this is becoming a concern for American safety. Glenn also reviews the shocking news that's coming out of Cuba, which Secretary of State Marco Rubio accused of being the "ideological capital" of left-wing extremism that's infecting America. The Tate brothers have been arrested in Miami after British authorities issued dozens of new charges against them, including rape and sex trafficking charges. The Democratic Socialists of America released a new program, and it's a radical experiment to change America fundamentally. But has it been done before? Glenn reveals that this idea isn't new and has already been tried and failed. Glenn responds to a subscriber's admission of hopelessness and gives his advice to fight that feeling by highlighting the power of the individual. Glenn discusses a new dating service that's run by artificial intelligence. Glenn goes through the 25 most influential works of American culture, which shuffles between the Federalist Papers and Beyoncé. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
