With President Trump’s transformative agenda and a mandate from the American people, Roberts exposes the catastrophic failures of the past generation of elites and offers a roadmap to restore the nation.

The real antagonist of the everyday American is the Uniparty — a political establishment focused on advancing the interests of Washington elites rather than those of the American people. As a nation, we have problems that must be confronted to ensure a complete renewal of the American dream. This week's episode of The Kevin Roberts Show features a conversation between Fox News Host Brian Kilmeade and Heritage Foundation President Dr. Kevin Roberts. The two discuss Roberts' new book, "Dawn's Early Light: Taking Back Washington to Save America," and how conservatives aim to usher in a transformative era of policy reform.

For decades, leftist ideology has poisoned America’s schools, and the consequences couldn’t be clearer. Free speech is being crushed, cultural chaos is spreading, and actual learning has taken a backseat to woke indoctrination. But in Florida, Governor Ron DeSantis showed us what real leadership looks like. By transforming the New College of Florida, he restored classical education and intellectual diversity to an institution in desperate need of both—and he put Richard Corcoran at the helm to lead that charge. What can we learn from this fearless approach to reclaiming education? Dr. Roberts sits down with President Corcoran to talk about how bold action and unapologetic principles can fix our schools and save our culture. Richard Corcoran is a seasoned conservative policymaker and education reform advocate. He served as Speaker of the Florida House of Representatives. As Florida’s Education Commissioner, Corcoran implemented policies to strengthen academic standards, expand charter schools, and improve vocational education. In 2023, he was appointed President of New College of Florida by Governor Ron DeSantis to lead its transformation into a classical liberal arts institution focused on intellectual diversity and rigorous academics. His new book is "Storming the Ivory Tower: How a Florida College Became Ground Zero in the Struggle to Take Back Our Campuses."

What does it mean to live virtuously and pursue the American Dream? For country music legend John Rich, it’s about the freedom to explore your potential without interference—rooted in speaking the truth boldly and standing firm in the face of adversity. As Rich challenges, “What if Teddy Roosevelt had been afraid? What if Ronald Reagan had been afraid?” Heritage Foundation President Dr. Kevin Roberts sits down with John Rich for an inspiring conversation about courage, virtue, and the principles that sustain the American Dream.

Dr. Kevin Roberts joins Joshua Treviño of the Texas Public Policy Foundation to discuss his new book, Dawn’s Early Light: Taking Back Washington to Save America. He outlines a plan to challenge the Washington establishment and shares personal insights from his journey. AN INSTANT NATIONAL BESTSELLER WITH A FOREWORD BY VICE PRESIDENT-ELECT J.D. VANCE Heritage Foundation president Kevin Roberts outlines a peaceful "Second American Revolution" for voters looking to shift the power back into the hands of the people. America is on the brink of destruction. A corrupt and incompetent elite has uprooted our way of life and is brainwashing the next generation. Many so-called conservatives are as culpable as their progressive counterparts. In this ambitious and provocative book, Heritage Foundation President Dr. Kevin Roberts announces the arrival of a New Conservative Movement. His message is simple: Global elites — your time is up. Dawn’s Early Light blazes a promising path for the American people to take back their country. Chapter by chapter, it identifies institutions that conservatives need to build, others that we need to take back, and more still that are too corrupt to save: Ivy League colleges, the FBI, the New York Times, the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases, the Department of Education, BlackRock, the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation, the National Endowment for Democracy, to name a few. All these need to be dissolved if the American way of life is to be passed down to future generations. The good news is, we’re going to win. The Swamp is so drunk on power that the elites don't realize the ground is moving beneath their feet. In Washington, they wear foreign flags on their lapels, but they don’t protect our border. They wave around the Constitution, but they don’t respect its wisdom. They appeal to Reagan, but Reagan would never put up with this non-sense. Their decadence will be their downfall. A new day is here.

In recent decades, American education has shifted from teaching essential skills to embedding a progressive agenda under the guise of inclusivity and social justice. The result? Lower test scores and students unprepared for the future. How did we get here, and what can be done to fix it? As the leader of one of the most respected conservative institutions in the country, Dr. Arnn is uniquely positioned to answer these tough questions and offer solutions. Don't miss this eye-opening conversation about the state of American education and the future of our country.

The elites are on notice. In his new book, "Dawn’s Early Light: Taking Back Washington to Save America," Heritage Foundation President Dr. Kevin Roberts presents a plan for everyday Americans to wrest power back from a corrupt, incompetent ruling class. With crises like unchecked illegal immigration, the looming threat of World War III, and an unbearable cost of living, Americans can’t afford to sit on the sidelines. In this week’s episode of The Kevin Roberts Show, Dr. Roberts sits down with the Great One, Mark Levin, to discuss the battle plan for Americans ready to take back their country.
