Eli Lake on the Current Political "Mood"

Ami's House

About this episode

A wide-angle look at the political “moods” shaping 2025. The Free Press' Eli Lake joins Ami’s House to break down the rise of extremism, the new pressures on Jews from both sides, and how today’s chaos fits into a deeper historical cycle.


In this episode, we get into:

• Why today’s fringe movements feel powerful but remain unstable

• How anti-Semitism on the left and right is reshaping Jewish identity

• The difference between local populist wins and national viability

• Political violence, conspiracy culture, and the normalization of chaos

• What the emerging realignment means for American Jews
