Just the Truth Podcast with Joey Hudson
NYC’s mayoral race took a hard-left turn as Democratic Socialist Zohran Mamdani said New York City should arrest Israeli PM Benjamin Netanyahu if he visits—citing an ICC warrant the U.S. does not recognize. We break down what Mamdani actually said, what the law allows, and why this matters for Jewish New Yorkers, U.S.–Israel relations, and the city’s already-strained NYPD and diplomatic norms.
PLUS: Letitia James scandal deepens. New revelations around New York’s recently indicted Attorney General add fuel to an already explosive story. We walk through the latest developments, why her Norfolk property is back in the spotlight, and how this is playing with voters who watched her pursue high-profile cases against political opponents.
South Carolina spotlight:

Plus: Former President Joe Biden’s reaction, why several blue-state airports refused to air DHS Secretary Kristi Noem’s shutdown PSA, and a new Family Research Council study showing a troubling decline in biblical convictions among U.S. churchgoers.

After two long years of war and heartbreak, Israel and Hamas have agreed to a fragile ceasefire — one that could finally bring dozens of hostages home. But is this truly a step toward peace, or just another temporary pause in the violence?
Joining me today is Arielle Nakdimon — a Ph.D. student at Gratz College specializing in Antisemitism Studies. Arielle recently served as a Scholar-in-Residence at Oxford University with the Institute for the Study of Global Antisemitism and Policy, and as a Postgraduate Fellow at the London Centre for the Study of Contemporary Antisemitism. She’s also co-founder of the Better Communities Alliance in Greenville, formed after October 7 to strengthen dialogue about antisemitism and Israel.
In this powerful conversation, we cover:
🇮🇱 The structure and meaning of Phase 1 of the ceasefire agreement
🤝 President Trump’s influence versus the prior administration’s approach to peace
🕊️ Whether this deal can lead to lasting stability or is just another pause in a long war
🗣️ How American Jews are responding — and what it means for communities here at home
🎓 Arielle’s summer at Oxford University studying the global rise of antisemitism
If you care about faith, freedom, and America’s role in standing with our allies — you don’t want to miss this one.
