This week on Moment of Truth, Nick interviews Nathan Pinkoski about Jean Raspail's controversial 1973 novel, The Camp of the Saints, newly republished in English by Vauban Books with Pinkoski's introduction.

They explore the book's premise—a million immigrants sail to France, forcing Western institutions (government, military, media, and the church) to confront an influx of people—and make the case that it is a profound mirror to the West's spiritual malaise, cowardice, evasion of responsibility, and loss of love for one's own country.

They address what the author got right (such as spiritual sickness and authority crisis) and what he got wrong, and they examine the modern parallels to Europe and America today in elite conversions and institutional failures.

This week on Moment of Truth, Nick sits down with tech policy expert Joel Thayer to dissect Big Tech's power, past abuses, and the path forward under the Trump administration.

They revisit landmark censorship moments—like the suppression of the Hunter Biden laptop story, Parler's deplatforming, and Trump's ban from major platforms—and warn against forgetting these violations of free expression. Thayer highlights conservative antitrust efforts by figures like Senators Blackburn, Hawley, Lee, and Grassley, praises key Trump-era actions (FCC Section 230 review, DOJ Google probe), and credits carryover wins in the Biden years.

They critique Big Tech's China entanglements, mass layoffs of American workers, reliance on foreign labor, and profit-driven amorality. The conversation explores agency roles (FTC, DOJ, FCC, NTIA), the need for America First priorities, and skepticism toward Big Tech's recent "turn" toward conservatives.

Remember, Big Tech is not your friend.

This week on Moment of Truth, Nick sits down with Michael Green to unpack his viral Substack essay "My Life Is A Lie," which exposes the harsh economic realities facing American families today.

Green dismantles the official poverty line (~$32k for a family of four), revealing how skyrocketing costs—especially childcare, housing, and healthcare—combined with a brutal, hidden benefits cliff creates a "valley of death" between $40k–$100k incomes where putting in the extra effort generates more penalties than gains.

The conversation covers generational wealth erosion, policy failures, and surprising optimism for Gen Z's resilience and realism.

This episode is for out-of-the-box thinkers and stat-lovers, and provides a rage-inducing yet hopeful look at what it really takes to build a life in modern America.
