In this episode of The Winston Marshall Show, I’m joined by Josh Hammer, conservative commentator and author of Israel and Civilisation, for a detailed breakdown of the chaos consuming the American right after the assassination of Charlie Kirk.

Hammer, a close friend of Kirk’s, explains how his murder has exposed deep fractures in the conservative movement, from figures like Tucker Carlson, Candace Owens, and Nick Fuentes to mainstream Christian Zionists and pro-Israel conservatives. He describes Charlie Kirk as “the glue that held the movement together,” arguing that without him, the American right is now entering a dangerous new phase of ideological civil war.

We discuss the rise of anti-Israel sentiment among young conservatives, the spread of conspiracy theories blaming “Jewish influence” for foreign policy, and how these narratives are being legitimised by populist commentators. Hammer traces how old-school nationalism has turned nihilistic, how figures once aligned with MAGA now flirt with antisemitism, and what this all means for the future of Western conservatism.

The collapse of unity after Kirk’s death, the conservative civil war over Israel, and the dangerous resurgence of antisemitism inside America’s political right.
