Original Title: Political Violence; Fed Rate cut; IEEPA tariffs; Cocaine; Genocide; Pagers; IVF | Yaron Brook Show
September 17, 2025

In this hard-hitting episode of the Yaron Brook Show, Yaron unpacks the shocking murder of Charlie Kirk and what it reveals about political violence, radicalization, and media narratives. He challenges misconceptions about crime trends, warns about the creeping authoritarianism of government, and critiques the Federal Reserve’s latest interest rate cut.

From the economic consequences of tariffs and the failed war on drugs, to IVF breakthroughs, a UN report on Israel, and the role of art in Renaissance Florence—this episode covers today’s most pressing issues with historical depth and philosophical clarity.

Yaron brings the Objectivist perspective to questions of freedom, morality, democracy’s limits, and the cultural forces shaping the future of the West.

Key Takeaways:

Political violence in the U.S. is not escalating as many fear; overall crime rates are falling.
The real danger is expanding federal authoritarianism, not random violence.Legalizing drugs is the only effective way to end cartel violence and corruption.
