Conservatism’s Future, Epstein Distraction, and the Biblical Alliance
On this episode, Josh takes a hard look at the conservative movement—what’s being done to make it real in America today, and what it will take to deliver lasting conservative policy. He pushes back on the calls to release more of the Jeffrey Epstein "files," arguing why Republicans should be wary of the motives behind this push. Josh also dives into America’s relationship with Israel and exposes the faction within the so-called "Right" that seems determined to drive a wedge between Jews and Christians.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

From Flag Burning to Fed Battles: Trump’s Push for Law and Order

The Art of the 80-20 Issue
Josh rips into the radical white liberals protesting in Washington, D.C.—and exposes how they’re walking right into a trap. By picking a fight with President Trump on an issue that 80% of Americans already support, Democrats are showing once again that they’d rather score political points than stand with the people. The result? Trump racks up another win, while the Left is left flailing on defense.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Texas Dems Are Back—But the Real Fight Is Over the Census
Josh tears into the return of Texas Democrats from their “vacation” while the state barrels ahead with redistricting. He raises the tough questions the media avoids: Who really deserves to be counted in the U.S. Census? Josh takes on the arguments head-on, blasting the idea of inflating numbers with illegal aliens and making the case for why a citizenship question on the census is plain common sense.

D.C.’s Legal Sham, The Left’s War on Nuns, and Trump’s Terrorist Takedown
Josh dismantles the laughable new lawsuit filed by D.C.’s attorney general, exposing why it’s doomed to fail under the Constitution, and explains why the Left is terrified of Trump’s crime crackdown in the nation's capital.
