Joe Kent twice, Max Blumenthal once: fifteen uploads on Iran and Israel

Joe Kent's Iran interview went past 30,000 views in its first seventeen hours, and a Latin America episode followed close behind.

Why this story? The channel's weekly summary: what went up this week, what is drawing views now, and where the channel stands among similar channels.

Fifteen uploads went up on Judging Freedom, and nearly all of them circled the same two capitals, Tehran and Jerusalem. Joe Kent, the former Green Beret who twice ran for Congress in Washington state, sat with Andrew Napolitano for two of them. The newer one, "The Iran Situation: Joe Kent Exposes What They Aren't Telling You," is the channel's busiest video right now, a day old and moving faster than anything else on the page.

Max Blumenthal, editor of The Grayzone, came on to ask whether Israeli democracy is ending. Two shorts filled in the edges: one on what Iran's President Pezeshkian said at the UN about Israel's nuclear arsenal, the other on Itamar Ben-Gvir's rise. A late episode on Latin America, billed as a story the media is hiding, has picked up speed in its first half day.

The channel gained about four million views and a thousand subscribers, a little below its usual pace. Among political commentators of its size, that was the third biggest week, behind Dan Wootton's very large one and Katie Phang's, while The Rational National ran far above its own ordinary days.
