Chris Hedges Report: Why The US Military Is ‘Earth’s Greatest Enemy’

July 30, 2026 The Chris Hedges Report. , , ,
In their most recent documentary, “Earth’s Greatest Enemy”, Abby Martin and Mike Prysner examine the US military as not only the world’s biggest consumer of fossil fuels, but also the world’s biggest perpetrator of ecological devastation and a driver of both increasing carbon emissions and militarization in other countries. Chris Hedges speaks about the new film and why it is an important tool in the global struggle against imperialism with Abby Martin in this episode of The Chris Hedges Report. On top of the US military’s direct carbon emissions from powering warships, bombers, tanks, the vast web of foreign bases and more...

The Chris Hedges Report: Democracy Necessitates Resistance

July 18, 2026 The Chris Hedges Report, Scheer Post. , , , ,
We are living in an age of climate collapse, which will most likely result in mass displacement and death, warns Roger Hallam, co-founder of Extinction Rebellion in the United Kingdom on this episode of The Chris Hedges Report. . And while that reality is hard to accept, it is an honest assessment of what lies ahead that must be addressed as we decide how to navigate what Hallam calls humanity’s “darkest hour.” In his new book, “Suicide: The Political and Legal Implications of Creating Endless Mass Death,” written while he was in prison for climate action, Hallam shares his background in academic sociology and organizing for social change to provide tools for resisting under the current repressive legal and political systems.

Chris Hedges Report: What Happens ‘When the World Sleeps’?

July 9, 2026 The Chris Hedges Report. , , , ,
Francesca Albanese, the special rapporteur on the Occupied Palestinian Territories comprising the West Bank, Gaza, and East Jerusalem, is one of the singular most courageous voices against the ongoing genocide in Gaza and the savage repression meted out to Palestinians in the West Bank. Her detailed UN reports have been fearless examinations of the machinery of apartheid and genocide and Israel’s disregard for international humanitarian law. She has been viciously attacked. The Trump administration ordered the U.S. Department of Treasury to classify her as a “specially designated national”, cutting her off from the global financial system and blocking any U.S. citizen and corporation from engaging with her.

Building Systems Of Mutual Aid After Prison

June 25, 2026 Chris Hedges Report Documentaries, Scheer Post. , , , ,
America’s prison system does not end at the prison gate. For millions of formerly incarcerated people, release marks the beginning of another sentence—one enforced not by prison guards, but by laws, discrimination, economic exclusion, and a political system that too often values punishment over rehabilitation. While politicians routinely invoke the language of “second chances,” returning citizens face barriers to housing, employment, education, voting, and even basic dignity that make successful reentry deliberately difficult.

Chris Hedges Report: Where Will The Coming Iran War Negotiations Lead?

June 15, 2026 The Chris Hedges Report. , , , , , ,
As the global economy teeters on the brink of a major crisis, the United States, with the aid of the Pakistani government, is once again attempting to finalize an agreement to end the war on Iran that could be signed this weekend. There are still many steps that must be taken before there can be a complete cessation of US/Israeli hostilities on Iran, but as oil reserves dwindle, time is running out. And, of course, even if a deal is signed, it remains to be seen whether the United States and Israel will violate it. In this episode, Chris Hedges speaks with Professor Mohammad Marandi, who is a former adviser to Iran’s nuclear negotiating team.

Chris Hedges: The Fight To Save America

June 12, 2026 Chris Hedges, Consortium News. , , , ,
The worst is not the Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) and private contractors, wielding baseball bats and batons, who flood the parking lot at the end of their shifts and unleash on protesters outside the gates the sadism practiced on those incarcerated inside Delaney Hall. The worst is not the tear gas, the tasers, the pepper spray or the dozens of arrests. The worst is not the beatings and the riot shields, raised above the heads of New Jersey State Police and Newark police and brought down swiftly on bodies, leaving severe lacerations. The worst is watching the children.

Jeffrey Epstein, The Russian Mob, And The Maxwells’ Hidden Assets

June 5, 2026 The Chris Hedges Report. , , , ,
The release of the Epstein Files has shocked the public with unimaginable stories of the pedophilia, exploitation of women and brash depravity of the ruling class. While these stories have been the major source of public outrage, a deeper dive into the Epstein Files reveals the inside world of how the billionaire class operates to control information and collude with each other - hide their crimes and gain massive wealth at the expense of the working class. In this episode, Chris Hedges speaks with Maureen Tkacik, an investigative journalist who has studied and written about the Epstein Files for The American Prospect and The Nation.

Chris Hedges On America’s War Delusions: ‘Alice In Wonderland Garbage’

May 23, 2026 Joshua Scheer, Scheer Post. , , ,
As the United States sinks deeper into another catastrophic Middle East confrontation, veteran journalist Chris Hedges joins political scientist Stephen Walt and journalist Ryan Grim for a blistering discussion on the unraveling of American power, the dangerous illusions driving Washington’s war machine, and the growing global consequences of the conflict with Iran. Drawing direct parallels to the invasion of Iraq, the conversation tears apart the fantasy that endless militarism creates “stability.” Instead, Hedges argues that the United States has spent decades destabilizing the region through wars, regime-change fantasies, and policies driven less by diplomacy than by what he calls a “non-reality-based belief system” funded by the military-industrial complex.

A Discussion On The New Novel ‘Palaces Of The Crow’

May 21, 2026 The Chris Hedges Report. , , , ,
“We tell the stories that perpetuate the narrative or the myth we want, and we erase the others,” Chris Hedges states in this interview with Ray Nayler about his new book, “Palaces of the Crow,” which centers around four teenagers from varying backgrounds who struggle to survive during World War II. The war, Nayler says, fundamentally reshaped the world geopolitically, technologically and socially in ways that have profoundly impacted the environment in which we live today. Critical lessons from that moment in time are being lost, with media and governments covering up the deep and long-lasting wounds inflicted upon tens of millions of people.

The History Of National Resistance Movements In Palestine

May 14, 2026 The Chris Hedges Report. , , , , , ,
Dr. Ramzy Baroud, a Palestinian historian and author, in his new book, “Before the Flood: A Gaza Family Memoir Across Three Generations of Colonial Invasion, Occupation, and War in Palestine,” traces the long arc of Palestinian resistance to the Zionist settler-colonial state leading to its current form in Hamas. It is resistance, defined by Palestinians themselves, as Dr. Baroud explains, that is the “sole leverage” of the Palestinian people in their struggle for existence, which began before the Nakba of 1948. In this episode, Chris Hedges speaks with Professor Baroud about his deep personal connection to this struggle.

Israel Has Kidnapped Two Important Pro-Palestine Activists

May 4, 2026 Chris Hedges, Scheer Post. , , , , ,
Nothing illustrates the inversion of the international and moral order more than the genocide in Gaza and the shipment of tens of billions of dollars of weapons to Israel by Western nations, especially the United States, to sustain it. Part of this inversion is the unrelenting persecution of those who denounce the genocide — especially those who risk their lives to halt it and demand the rule of law. But the rule of law, it appears, is buried under the rubble in Gaza. And because of that Israel is able, with barely a word of protest by Western nations – Spain being one of the few exceptions – to abduct 175 activists aboard Sumud Flotilla 500 nautical miles from Gaza and 80 nautical miles west of the Greek island of Crete.

The Revolutionary Spirit Of Iran

April 30, 2026 The Chris Hedges Report. , , , , ,
The United States, in its recent war on Iran, has completely misread the Iranian people and failed to recognize the deep revolutionary spirit that pervades Iranian culture. Rather than inciting Iranian people against their government, the US-Israeli war on Iran has united the population. Rather than promoting democracy in Iran and empowering the people, US economic punishment and aggression have accomplished the opposite and have made life more difficult for most Iranians. Like Cuba, Iran is being targeted because it will not relinquish its sovereignty.

Chris Hedges Report: Is Hezbollah Beating Israel In Lebanon?

April 19, 2026 The Chris Hedges Report. , , , ,
On April 16, the Trump administration forced the Israeli military to cease its attacks on Lebanon as part of an agreement with Iran to fully open the Strait of Hormuz. This marked another victory for the Axis of Resistance and the Lebanese people. However, Israel has a long history of violating its ceasefire agreements, and it is unlikely to give up on its fundamental goal of occupying Lebanon by attempting to foment a civil war between Hezbollah and the Lebanese military. In this episode, Chris Hedges speaks with Free Palestine TV journalist, Laith Marouf, who is reporting from southern Lebanon.

The Trump Administration’s War On Cuba

April 15, 2026 The Chris Hedges Report. , , ,
Medea Benjamin, a co-founder of the antiwar organization CODEPINK, speaks with Chris Hedges about her recent visit to Cuba as part of one of the many humanitarian delegations that have visited the island in response to the severe economic blockade imposed by the Trump administration. Benjamin describes the current situation as “dire”, the worst she has experienced in her 50 years of solidarity work with Cuba, referring to the escalation of the blockade as a “medieval siege.” The fuel shortages have had deadly impacts, imposing nationwide power outages. Sanctions and the blockade have created shortages of food, medicine and other necessities.

The Chris Hedges Report: America’s Suez Crisis

April 12, 2026 Chris Hedges, The Chris Hedges Report. , , , , , ,
The whole world is watching as negotiations begin today in Islamabad, Pakistan between Iran and the United States following an agreement to cease military action for two weeks. The negotiations are based on a ten-point plan outlined by Iran and approved by the United States as a basis for the talks. Israel has not been invited to the negotiations, which are being conducted indirectly and with a great deal of skepticism by the Iranian team. The outcome of these talks will impact the entire global economy and the fate of millions of people in West Asia, six million of whom have already been forcibly displaced by US and Israeli aggression in recent years.
