Trump to appear on Joe Rogan’s podcast less than 2 weeks before Election Day

Democrat Vice President Kamala Harris has not yet committed to be a guest on the popular podcaster’s show.

With less than two weeks until Election Day, Donald Trump is set to make his much-anticipated debut on commentator Joe Rogan’s podcast.

Reports of Trump’s appearance on “The Joe Rogan Experience” have grown in recent days after rumors began circulating that Kamala Harris would be a guest on the program. As of yet, the Harris team has not confirmed if she is planning to sit down with Rogan, whose shows routinely last for over two hours.

Trump will record an episode in person at Rogan’s Austin-based studio on Friday. Rogan commands a listenership north of 14 million, most of whom are men. It is not known when the show will be released, but it will have to be published before Tuesday, November 5, when voters go to the polls.

In the past, Rogan has had on Elon Musk, Tucker Carlson, Russell Brand, and Robert F. Kennedy Jr., all of whom now support Trump for president. As recently as 2022, Rogan said, “I’m not a Trump supporter in any way, shape or form.” At the same time, he praised Trump after he survived his first assassination attempt and has admitted life under him was better than it is under Joe Biden.

Rogan’s edgy commentary and willingness to delve into “conspiracy theories” while challenging mainstream media talking points about COVID-19, U.S. foreign policy, and other topics have made him one of the most-listened-to podcasters in the world. His massive $250 million deal with Spotify has essentially made him noncancelable.

Earlier this year, musician Kid Rock told Rogan that he would go back in time to meet Jesus Christ. Rogan, who is an agnostic and skeptical that Our Lord ever existed, responded, “What if Jesus wasn’t there? … You think there’s a real Jesus?” To which Rock replied, “Definitely.”

While speaking with NFL quarterback Aaron Rodgers in February, Rogan, who was raised Catholic but now partakes in drug-induced meditation and “spiritual” exercises, said the world is in “need of Jesus” and that “as time rolls on, people are going to understand the need to have some sort of divine structure to things.”

It is difficult to know which topics Rogan will bring up with Trump. One would expect him ask about Operation Warp Speed, as Rogan interviewed alternative medical doctors and took ivermectin when he contracted the coronavirus. He may also ask Trump about how he plans to “make America healthy again” with RFK Jr., who Rogan previously said he is a “fan” of. Trump’s assassination attempt in Butler, Pennsylvania would also likely also be a topic of conversation.

Germany launches first permanent foreign troop deployment since WW2

Published on

MXM logo  MxM News

Quick Hit:

Germany activated a 5,000-strong armored brigade in Lithuania — marking its first permanent foreign military deployment since World War II. The move strengthens NATO’s eastern flank amid Ukraine’s ongoing conflict with Russia.

Key Details:

  • The 45th Armored Brigade was formally launched outside Vilnius on Tuesday.
  • Germany plans for the brigade to be fully operational by 2027 in Rūdninkai, near the Belarus border.
  • The deployment marks a major policy shift for Berlin and a boost for NATO’s deterrence posture.

Diving Deeper:

Germany has officially entered a new era of military engagement, launching its first permanent foreign troop deployment since the end of World War II. The move, announced Tuesday, sees the activation of a 5,000-strong armored brigade in Lithuania as part of a broader NATO strategy to counter the perceived threat from Russia.

The newly formed 45th Armored Brigade was ceremonially inaugurated outside the Lithuanian capital, Vilnius. German Brigadier General Christoph Huber assumed command, overseeing the establishment of a temporary headquarters and unveiling the unit’s crest. “We have a clear mission: to ensure the protection, freedom and security of our Lithuanian allies on NATO’s eastern flank,” Huber said, adding that the unit’s presence also directly contributes to the defense of Germany and NATO as a whole.

The deployment follows a pledge made by Berlin in 2023 — a decision that broke with decades of postwar defense policy rooted in military restraint. German officials had long avoided permanently stationing combat troops abroad. That posture has changed in response to Russia’s ongoing war in Ukraine, which has turned the Baltic region into one of NATO’s most vulnerable frontlines.

Germany’s commitment includes more than just fighting forces. The brigade will also feature key support elements, such as a medical center, communications specialists, and command support units dispersed across multiple Lithuanian locations. Troops will initially operate out of temporary facilities, with a permanent base under construction in Rūdninkai, located roughly 30 kilometers south of Vilnius.

Currently, 150 German soldiers are already on the ground in Lithuania. That figure is expected to rise to 500 by the end of the year as the new brigade scales up operations.

China announces “improvements” to social credit system

Published on

Quick Hit:

Beijing released new guidelines Monday to revamp its social credit system, promising stronger information controls while deepening the system’s reach across China’s economy and society. Critics say the move reinforces the Communist Party’s grip under the banner of “market efficiency.”

Key Details:

  • The guideline was issued by top Chinese government and Communist Party offices, listing 23 measures to expand and standardize the social credit system.
  • It aims to integrate the credit system across all sectors of China’s economy to support what Beijing calls “high-quality development.”
  • Officials claim the new framework will respect information security and individual rights—despite growing global concerns over surveillance and state overreach.

Diving Deeper:

China is doubling down on its social credit system with a newly issued guideline meant to “improve” and expand the controversial surveillance-driven program. Released by both the Communist Party’s Central Committee and the State Council, the document outlines 23 specific measures aimed at building a unified national credit system that will touch nearly every corner of Chinese society.

Framed as a tool for “high-quality development,” the guideline declares that credit assessments will increasingly shape the rules of engagement for businesses, government agencies, and individual citizens. The system, according to the National Development and Reform Commission (NDRC), has already played a role in shaping China’s financial services, government efficiency, and business environment.

Critics of the social credit system have long warned that it serves as an instrument of authoritarian control—monitoring citizens’ behavior, punishing dissent, and rewarding obedience to the Communist Party. By integrating credit data across all sectors and enforcing a “shared benefits” model, the new guideline appears to entrench, not ease, the Party’s involvement in everyday life.

Still, Beijing is attempting to temper foreign and domestic concerns over privacy. The NDRC emphasized that the system is being built on the “fundamental principle” of protecting personal data. Officials pledged to avoid excessive data collection and crack down on any unlawful use of information.
