The Ayatollah is dead. But nothing is settled.

After U.S. and Israeli airstrikes against Iran, calls for regime change are growing in Washington. But removing a leader is not the same as stabilizing a nation.

In this episode of Fair Game, Dr. Gary Kellner examines the risks of civil war, the power of the Revolutionary Guard, the lessons of Iraq and Afghanistan, and the hard question: what is the endgame?

A few hours ago, the United States and Israel launched strikes against Iran.

If the objective is limiting Iran’s nuclear capacity, that is one thing. If the objective becomes regime change, that is something very different.

Abraham Lincoln didn’t just save the Union — he refused to hate.

In this episode of Fair Game, Dr. Gary Kellner explores Lincoln’s moral growth, his clarity during the Civil War, and the leadership quality we desperately need today: conviction without demonization.

From Euclid’s geometry to the Second Inaugural Address… from pragmatism to “a new birth of freedom”… Lincoln became something rare in politics — a man who saw crisis in moral terms without turning opponents into monsters.

What would it look like to recover that spirit now?

America was born from an idea — but it survived because of a man.

In this episode of Fair Game, Dr. Gary Kellner reflects on George Washington, the leader historian Thomas Flexner called “the indispensable man,” and why character, restraint, and moral authority matter more than brilliance or power.

What kind of leader do we become when everything is on the line?

What limits the power of a president when military force is used abroad?

In this episode of Fair Game, Dr. Gary Kellner examines the Venezuela operation through the long arc of American constitutional history. From the Founders’ insistence on limited executive power to modern presidential precedent, this conversation moves beyond partisan outrage to ask harder questions about Congress, accountability, and the future of the American republic.

Is this constitutional? Is it wise? And what happens when emergencies become the norm?

Antisemitism is spreading in America — not at the margins, but in elite institutions, college campuses, and public life.

In this episode of Fair Game, Dr. Gary Kellner examines the resurgence of antisemitism following the October 7 attacks in Israel, the rapid spread of disinformation, and the moral confusion that quickly turned victims into villains.

Drawing on history, from 1938 Germany to the present moment, Dr. Kellner argues that antisemitism is never just a Jewish problem — it is a warning sign of a deeper moral collapse.

Silence, history teaches us, is never neutral.
Silence in the face of evil is evil itself.

In this episode of Fair Game, Dr. Gary Kellner examines the growing national controversy surrounding ICE enforcement, following a fatal traffic stop in Minneapolis that reignited public outrage and distrust.

Beyond the headlines, this conversation asks a deeper question:
Can immigration enforcement be effective without undermining constitutional liberty and public trust?

Dr. Kellner explores:

• How America’s immigration crisis became “the worst-kept secret”

• Why ICE’s street-level tactics are fueling fear and anxiety

• The role of the Fourth Amendment as a constitutional guardrail

• Why enforcement without restraint weakens a republic rather than strengthens it

This is not a partisan argument or a cable-news debate. It’s a sober reflection on power, limits, and what ultimately holds a free society together.
