Victory Over Communism with Bill Gertz
PODCASTS
Communism didn’t end with the Cold War….
China’s communist rulers are on the march. According to Chinese Communist Party supreme leader Xi Jinping, the world will soon be under the domination of China’s anti-democratic communist system.
Domestically, Marxist radicals of the 1960s long ago shifted tactics and began their own Chinese-style Long March through the institutions of America. Over the ensuing decades, Marxists infiltrated all segments of society and are seeking nothing less than the ideological takeover of the country.
To meet these twin challenges, a new podcast called Victory Over Communism with Bill Gertz was launched in April 2022 by veteran national security journalist and New York Times bestselling author Bill Gertz.

All socialists are linked to the first communist state, the Soviet Union, known as the Union of Soviet Socialist Republics. Despite a track record of tyranny, misery, and mass death, socialism continues to be embraced by people who fail to grasp its character and history. This episode presents vital details on the true legacy of socialism. The counterproposal portion presents the VOC worldview on history — not as a history of Marxist class struggle, but as the battle between good and evil. The news section provides new details on the Democratic Socialists of America, the party of New York Mayor Zohran Mamdani, and its new alliance with the Chinese Communist Party. For the interview section, I spoke with Mike Gonzalez about his new Heritage Foundation report on the Cuban communist threat. As in the past, this episode is must listening!

Marxist-Leninist ideology in China has remained consistent since 1949 with successive dictators adapting Mao’s version of communism with new twists and turns. Under Xi Jinping today, communism in China is experiencing a forced revival within the Chinese Communist Party despite the masses of China’s people recognizing it as a failed European ideology deserving of contempt. This episode explains how Xi is reverting to Mao-style totalitarian communism and a more aggressive expansion around the world. For the counterproposal, this episode explains why mere anti-communism is not enough and a new faith-based worldview — the VOC worldview — is the ultimate solution to defeating communism. For the news section, this program addresses how artificial intelligence is being used by the Indo-Pacific Command to deter conflict with China. The interview portion hears from Bradley Thayer, an expert on both China and communism. Must listening!

The election of socialist Zhoran Mamdani as New York mayor is an alarming sign of the rise of critical theory and neo-Marxist ideology. Communists are now using this ideology to advance their goal of overthrowing the American system. This episode examines the ideology of critical theorists who claim to be opposing fascism but in reality are working subversively to reconstruct humanity along Marxian lines. And as with Marx, these critical theorists are virulent atheists who reject all notions of a supreme spiritual being as creator and parent. The counterproposal section explains that the ultimate solution to the problems communism seeks to address must be found in a greater understanding of spirituality and in restoring the originally intended relationship between the human race and God. The news portion addresses a global crackdown on Christians and the need to counter it. And for the interview section, I hear from Frank Kaufman, an expert who speaks eloquently in promoting a unique, faith-based critique and counterproposal of critical theory. Must listening!
OLDER PODCASTS
The Victory Over Communism podcast is a project of The Gertz File Investigative Report, an online newspaper launched in November 2020. The Report produces major investigative and in-depth reporting on a range of national security and international affairs topics.
Each hour-long podcast takes on the ideology of Chinese communism, also known as Marxism-Leninism with Chinese characteristics, by exposing its fallacies and the deadly consequences of Chinese Communist Party rule in China since 1949.
Closer to home, the podcast also tackles the problem of American Marxism, a different ideology from its Chinese variant that has been quietly and effectively advancing radical policies and culture that the podcast will reveal has been undermining traditional American ideas of freedom, liberty, and democracy.
The podcast is not limited to simply critiquing communism and Marxism. Significantly, the biweekly programs also present a unique faith-based counterproposal that applies Judeo-Christian principles to exposing communism’s false ideas. This, ultimately, is the most effective way to defeat these destructive ideologies.
In addition to the critique and counterproposal format, the hour-long podcast features news, commentary, and interviews with thought leaders. New programs are posted every two weeks.
Victory Over Communism is divided into four segments: A critique of Marxism-Leninism with Chinese characteristics or American Marxism, followed by a reasoned and in-depth critique of the fundamental tenets and activities of these ideologies.
The last two segments feature the latest news and commentary based on Gertz’s decades of experience as a Washington reporter and his unmatched stable of news sources.
Last, the podcast will interview a key newsmaker or thought leader on the topics of the podcast.
The overall objective of the podcast is to educate the public in the United States and the world about the series of threats to freedom and democracy posed by communist ideology and its offshoots. Anti-communism throughout the years has been laudable in its efforts but has been unable to counter the religious-like spread of communism. It is the central tenet of the podcast that the best way to confront and defeat a communist ideology with a reasoned and rational faith-based counterproposal that will provide hope for overcoming the world’s problems and seeking to build a better world through education and activities.
