In this episode of The Alex Marlow Show, Alex sits down for an extended, unfiltered 45-minute interview with Tom Homan, the former acting director of ICE and one of the central figures shaping President Trump’s border and immigration policies. Listeners get a rare, deeply personal look at the man behind decades of frontline law enforcement experience — a leader who has seen firsthand the human cost of America’s border crisis.

Homan opens up about his 40 years of service — from his early days as a Border Patrol agent to leading ICE — and the tragedies that have defined his career. He recounts haunting memories from the field, including the deaths of migrants in the back of a sweltering tractor trailer and the abuse of young girls trafficked by cartels. These experiences, he explains, fuel his relentless drive to secure the border and protect both Americans and migrants from further suffering.

The conversation moves from personal conviction to policy, as Homan and Alex dive into the dramatic turnaround under the Trump administration, which he says reduced illegal immigration by 96%. Homan credits Trump’s decisive executive actions and support for frontline agents, while condemning California’s sanctuary policies and what he calls the “open-borders ideology” of Democratic leaders like Gavin Newsom and Karen Bass. He argues that there’s “no downside to a secure border,” highlighting the link between border enforcement, public safety, and national security.

Throughout the interview, Homan outlines a roadmap to fix America’s immigration system permanently — reforming the asylum process, the Trafficking Victims Protection Act, and the Flores Settlement Agreement — changes he believes would solve 85% of the crisis. He also details ongoing ICE operations targeting criminal aliens, efforts to encourage self-deportation, and the challenges posed by sanctuary cities that, in his view, “protect criminals, not communities.”

In one of the episode’s most urgent segments, Alex and Homan discuss the growing dangers facing law enforcement, referencing the assassination of conservative activist Charlie Kirk and a disturbing rise in attacks on ICE officers. Homan warns that inflammatory rhetoric from politicians and media figures labeling ICE agents “Nazis” and “fascists” is fueling real-world violence, while hinting that the Department of Justice is investigating potential organized funding behind far-left extremist actions.

Homan remains steadfast despite the threats — to himself, his family, and his agents — vowing to “keep doing the job the president promised the American people.” His goal, he tells Alex, is simple but absolute: a border secure enough that “no national security threat or public safety risk is walking our streets.”

Alex closes the episode by calling the conversation “one of the most important interviews I’ve ever done,” thanking Homan for his service and for sharing such a candid perspective on the front lines of America’s border war.

Broadcasting from Washington, D.C., Alex opens this episode on a solemn note, honoring his late friend Charlie Kirk and highlighting the faith-based mission Charlie supported before his death — the upcoming film Off School Property, which promotes bringing Bible classes to public schools. From there, Alex pivots to a full update on his time in the nation’s capital, sharing behind-the-scenes stories from the White House, Fox News, and the Italian Embassy, while unpacking major political developments shaping the week.

Alex previews his highly anticipated exclusive interview with Tom Homan, former acting ICE director, calling it one of the most important of his career. He teases Homan’s insights into border security, Antifa organization, and the threats facing law enforcement. Setting the stage for that discussion, Alex criticizes CNN’s Erin Burnett and other mainstream outlets for minimizing Antifa’s violence — especially in the wake of Charlie Kirk’s assassination by a far-left extremist. He rebuts claims that Antifa is “less dangerous than the Proud Boys,” pointing to evidence of coordination, funding networks, and escalating attacks on ICE agents.

From there, Alex dives into revelations from a White House panel on Antifa, where his colleagues Seamus Bruner, Andy Ngo, and Savannah Hernandez presented new findings on who’s bankrolling domestic extremism. Alex breaks down the connections between George Soros, the Arabella Advisors dark money network, the Tides Foundation, and foreign billionaires like Neville Roy Singham and Hansjörg Wyss — figures he says are quietly funding Antifa operations and destabilizing the U.S. from within. He calls for transparency and accountability, arguing that “foreign cash is fueling the Marxist left’s paramilitary wing.”

In a surprising turn, Alex also shares his unplanned appearance on FOX News’ Laura Ingraham Show, where he reacted live to breaking news: President Trump’s historic Middle East peace deal. Alex praises Trump’s negotiation skills, calling the agreement “the most significant peaceful moment of the century” and a potential Nobel Prize–worthy achievement. He draws a stark contrast between Trump’s decisive foreign policy and Joe Biden’s “weakness and moral confusion,” revisiting his own 2023 Breitbart article that warned of Biden’s policies empowering Hamas and Iran.

Rounding out the episode, Alex weighs in on domestic politics — from Katie Porter’s meltdown and controversial comments about pedophilia to the ongoing government shutdown and the Democrats’ refusal to compromise. He critiques California’s failed leadership under Gavin Newsom and Porter, tying their moral decline to the broader collapse of the Democratic Party. Alex also highlights how the left’s obsession with opposing Trump has led them to embrace hypocrisy, defend lawlessness, and normalize moral corruption.

In this thought-provoking conversation, Alex sits down with Spencer Klavan, associate editor of The Claremont Review of Books and author of Light of the Mind, Light of the World, to explore what we lose when we stop reading — and what it means for the soul in an era dominated by artificial intelligence. The two dive deep into the cultural and spiritual consequences of outsourcing human thought to machines, reflecting on how AI’s ability to summarize and synthesize information might be making us more efficient, but also less human. Spencer argues that reading isn’t just about gathering information — it’s about transformation. Great books, he says, aren’t instruction manuals; they are “new wings of the soul,” forming character, clarity, and wisdom that no algorithm can replicate.

The conversation weaves together topics like the decline of literacy, the rise of AI, and the erosion of classical education. Spencer explains that while technology can enhance human life, it often erodes our natural abilities — from memorization to focus — by doing too much of the work for us. He draws parallels between Plato’s warnings about writing and today’s digital dependence, noting that every time humanity invents a new tool, it risks forgetting the human act it replaces.

Alex and Spencer also explore why modern culture has lost touch with deep reading, with many preferring “life-hack books” and influencer content over classic literature. They discuss why truly great works — from Plato to Tolstoy — endure, and how their complexity invites the reader into a lifelong dialogue rather than a list of takeaways. Spencer insists that the encounter between a living soul and a great mind is irreplaceable — the very essence of being human.

Turning to his book, Light of the Mind, Light of the World, Spencer argues that science, far from disproving God, increasingly points back to the divine. Drawing on the words of physicist Werner Heisenberg, he suggests that the deeper one delves into science, the more one encounters mystery — and ultimately, faith. The two discuss how materialism has failed to explain consciousness, morality, and meaning, and how the modern “new atheism” movement has given way to a renewed spiritual hunger.

The episode concludes with Spencer offering practical advice for rebuilding intellectual and spiritual habits in a distracted age: thirty minutes of reading, thirty minutes of prayer, and thirty minutes of exercise every day. He encourages listeners to rediscover the classics — from Plato’s Apology to the Gospels — not as relics of a dead past, but as living companions that sharpen the mind and feed the soul.

Together, Alex and Spencer make a powerful case for reclaiming literacy, faith, and thought in a world that risks losing all three to the machine.

In this episode, Alex speaks with investigative journalist and bestselling author Peter Schweizer about politics, media, China, and the state of the world two years after the October 7 Hamas attacks. The discussion opens with the ongoing government shutdown and how the left’s internal power struggles — especially the fear of AOC’s influence — have paralyzed Washington. Peter argues that much of the federal workforce exists as a “jobs program for Democratic voters,” and he and Alex discuss how the Trump administration can use the shutdown to cut bureaucratic waste and reassert fiscal discipline.

From there, they dive into the healthcare standoff in Congress, examining whether Republicans will cave on extending Obamacare subsidies and taxpayer-funded healthcare for illegal immigrants. Peter warns that such a move would hand Democrats ownership of a failing system and erase years of conservative progress on healthcare reform.

The conversation then shifts to the TikTok deal, with Peter offering cautious optimism about efforts to move the app into majority U.S. ownership under figures like Larry Ellison and Marc Andreessen. He outlines the dangers of China’s influence, the addictive nature of the algorithm, and the cultural damage of social media dependency. Alex and Peter lament the rise of “online avatars” replacing real human experiences, tying this to recent tragedies involving radicalized, isolated young men. They debate whether America should adopt restrictions similar to China’s youth app limits and what role parents and policy should play in combating digital addiction.

The pair also unpack the Ellison family’s growing media empire, from Oracle’s global reach to David Ellison’s purchase of CBS News and Barry Weiss’s appointment as editor-in-chief. Peter notes the antitrust concerns but welcomes a less “woke” ownership class in Silicon Valley. They discuss TikTok’s influence on news consumption and whether conservative voices like Alex’s can use the platform to reach new audiences.

Next, Alex and Peter tackle Zoran Mamdani’s rise in New York politics, exposing the foreign and ideological forces backing his socialist campaign. Peter links funding and enthusiasm for Mamdani to Hezbollah, Iran, and Chinese-aligned networks, calling it “a global project to capture America’s largest city.” The two debate whether Mamdani’s election would be a necessary wake-up call or a dangerous acceleration of decline.

In the final segment, they mark the second anniversary of the October 7 Hamas attacks, discussing Trump’s proposed Middle East peace deal and Israel’s ongoing campaign to destroy Hamas. Peter defends Israel’s right to self-defense and critiques both left- and right-wing voices accusing Israel of “genocide.” He and Alex explore why anti-Israel sentiment has grown online and stress the moral and historical blindness of equating Israel’s military response with terrorism.

The episode closes with Peter teasing new investigations into foreign money in U.S. politics — including potential Chinese and Islamic influence in New York — and calling for tougher congressional oversight of rogue judges abusing lawfare against Trump.

In this episode, Alex walks listeners through the outlines of the Trump-brokered peace framework for Israel — an exchange requiring Hamas to turn over the roughly 48 remaining hostages, Israel to release certain Palestinian prisoners, a partial disarmament of Hamas, an eventual Israeli withdrawal from Gaza, and a multinational reconstruction effort (with Marlow warning to watch how much U.S. funding is committed).

Alex then pivots to the Washington standoff: the government shutdown, the House-Senate appropriations process and a seven-week funding extension to November 21 that Republicans negotiated, and Republican Whip Tom Emmer’s argument that Democrats (led by Chuck Schumer) are catering to their left flank by pushing measures such as taxpayer-funded health care for undocumented immigrants — costs Alex says are mounting (he cites roughly $400 million per day).

Shifting to law-and-order and media coverage, he highlights violent clashes in Chicago between protesters and DHS/ICE, reads alarming private messages from Virginia Democratic candidate Jay Jones that fantasize about political violence, and recounts Jones’s reckless-driving incident (reported top speed cited) and community-service controversy. He criticizes light media coverage of those stories, flags the reduced sentence given to the would-be Kavanaugh assassin amid a transgender-identity claim, and mentions a South Carolina judge’s house fire as an item of concern. Cultural notes include a jab at Bad Bunny and the Super Bowl halftime choice.

The episode concludes with Marlow bringing on Rep. Tom Emmer for a deeper dive into the shutdown and appropriations fight.

The impact of AI on job markets and the grooming of children through media are also highlighted, alongside a discussion on the future of Hollywood and the persecution of Christians globally.
