In Episode 1880 of the No Agenda Show, hosts Adam Curry and John C. Dvorak dissect what they call a glaring media blackout: the first federal Antifa terrorism convictions in U.S. history. Broadcasting from Texas and California on June 25, 2026, the duo argue that while networks like ABC, CBS, and NBC focused on a reflecting pool at the Lincoln Memorial, a federal court in Fort Worth sentenced eight defendants to a combined 450 years for terrorism-related charges. The hosts spotlight how independent journalist Andy Ngo reported that one defendant received a 100-year sentence.
During the episode's signature 3x3 segment, Curry and Dvorak contrast the coverage of these convictions with other stories, including PBS NewsHour's framing of the sentences against January 6 defendants, J.D. Vance's explanation of unfrozen Iranian assets funding U.S. agricultural purchases, and Tulsi Gabbard's revelations about Anthony Fauci and overseas bio labs. Dvorak asserts, 'You don't want to promote this story. You want to talk about the reflecting pool and give people ideas,' suggesting deliberate media misdirection. The hosts also examine the Emma Goldman Reading Society defense raised by cooperating witnesses and Acting Attorney General Todd Blanche's statement on Antifa terrorists.
Beyond the Antifa story, the episode weaves multiple threads: Mark Rutte's 'Trump Trillion' PowerPoint at the White House, the Senate war powers reversal where Bill Cassidy flipped after a closed-door meeting, and Tucker Carlson's declaration of leaving the Republican Party. Other topics include Zohran Mamdani's Prophet Muhammad speech, a fatal Tesla autopilot crash in Katy, Texas killing 76-year-old Martha Avila, Trump's quantum executive orders, the Mythos AI security panic from Anthropic, and a $6.5 billion Medicare fraud sweep announced by RFK Jr. and Kash Patel. Curry, recounting a session of binge-watching The West Wing, calls the series 'total mind control propaganda for the Democrat Party,' while the hosts parse the National Security Presidential Memo 7 signed after Charlie Kirk's murder.
The episode underscores a recurring theme: mainstream outlets amplify trivial stories while burying consequential news. By exposing this gap, the No Agenda Show, available on platforms listed at podcastindex.org, challenges listeners to question what they see and hear. The hosts argue that the Antifa convictions—the first of their kind—deserve front-page coverage, not a footnote. As Dvorak notes, the media's choice to ignore such a story reveals a systemic bias that shapes public perception.
