Conservative Review with Daniel Horowitz

Now that the Left has raised the prominence of foreign interference in elections, this is the perfect time to make a legislative push to end foreign voting in our elections. Today we are joined by Logan Churchwell, communications and research director for the Public Interest Legal Foundation, who spends his time fighting voter fraud and promoting 21st-century ways to secure our vote. We are treated to a brilliant deep dive into the many facets of voter fraud and non-citizens voting. Logan explains how weak verification, in conjunction with motor voter laws, not only protects criminals but also hurts law-abiding legal immigrants by ensnaring them in inadvertent voting felonies.  Many motor vehicle bureau databases are bloated with wrong information or are full of non-citizens, and even illegal aliens, with no distinguishing indicator that they are not citizens. Now, with automatic voter registration laws, any non-citizen who orders any service from a state driving agency can be registered to vote!  Logan also explains how absentee mail-in ballots pose the single biggest concern of voter fraud because they have created an industry for malevolent third-party brokers to take advantage of elderly people who hand their ballots to campaigns. He discusses the simple solutions that his organization is working on to expose the problem and secure our elections.   Show links Sanctuaries reward crime wave with voting rights for illegals PILF report on stealing the vote in Pennsylvania Today’s show sponsored by Purple.com Copyright CRTV.

Republicans lack a conservative vision on foreign policy and Russia, and therefore we are seeing a lot of false dichotomies being supported by some of our friends. It’s no different from the false dichotomies we see in the primaries, when President Trump supports RINO candidates because conservatives have no coherent and robust plan of their own.  We begin the show by discussing how Trump is hurting us in primaries by supporting RINOs but not conservatives. This is the fault of the comatose conservative movement refusing to get involved and get in Trump’s ear the way Kevin McCarthy does for his candidates. Next, we move on to Russia. The real threat from Russia is not election hacking but its nuclear dominance mixed with its geopolitical ambition. We are fortunate to be joined by Dr. Mark Schneider, a senior analyst with the National Institute for Public Policy. He is one of the foremost experts on nuclear capabilities, missile defense, arms control, and general policy pertaining to Russia and China. He gives us an intelligence briefing on the true threat from Russia. Schneider explains how some of the very people complaining about Trump’s relationship with Putin are the ones who needlessly depleted our nuclear deterrent and promoted terrible arms deals that have re-empowered Russia to modernize their nuclear offensive capabilities. He concludes that with the right focus and only a little bit of money, we can make America’s nuclear deterrent great again and ensure Putin can never rival us. But unless we modernize our nuclear triad, the deterrent will collapse.   Show links Schneider on how to deter Russia without breaking the bank How Russia and China are modernizing while we are depleting our nuclear capabilities   Trump would be wise to discontinue the New START surrender treaty How Russia is lying about its nuclear program   Copyright CRTV.

Where is Congress? It was said that legislators would stay in session for August, yet they don’t even have a meaningful agenda to fill up the month of July. In today’s show, we observe all the ways that Congress, urged by a president willing to wield the veto pen, can tackle some of the issues people care about. Everyone is up in arms about Trump’s comments to Putin, and I'm also disappointed, but wouldn’t now be a perfect time for Congress to tackle foreign interference in our elections by preventing non-citizens from voting? Also, we go through the latest with crime, beheadings, and drugs squarely the fault of sanctuary cities. Congress is doing nothing about the problem, and it’s getting worse every day. We have district judges who are getting more maniacal by the day, yet nobody in Congress will deal with the problem. Also, do you really think a more conservative Supreme Court will even change this?   Show links The drug cartels are our ISIS Beheadings in America Judge mandates we pay for illegals Copyright CRTV.

Many in the political class are missing the point about NATO. The very countries that claim to value our support against enemies are working with those enemies to sabotage America and self-immolate while sticking us with the tab. Today, for foreign policy Friday, we are joined by CR’s national security correspondent, Jordan Schachtel, to discuss the latest on Trump’s visit to Europe.  Jordan gives us the full perspective on Germany’s perfidy with Russia and the problems with Turkey in NATO. We also discuss the opportunities to use a carrot-and-stick approach with the new Mexican president and the need to reorient our priorities, alliances, and focus on national security.    Show links The aimless war in Africa How Merkel is betraying us and cozying up to Russia Why Trump is right about NATO  Copyright CRTV.

What is it that is broken about the courts? What are the trends? How do we fix it? And how does a SCOTUS pick help redress the problem? The D.C. legal conservatives don’t want to observe these problems or even ask these questions. This is why they are coming to the wrong conclusions about the type of justice we need on the court and the limit of even the best justices to fix the system absent broader reforms that they oppose or ignore. In this episode, we discuss the core problems with the lower courts and the judicial velocity and how once you understand that, anything short of a Clarence Thomas who would 100 percent uproot the judicial cancer won’t solve the problem. It’s akin to taking out most of a tumor, which sounds nice, but is actually worthless. It’s in this vein that we explore some of the concerning aspects of Kavanaugh’s record.  Show links Death by a thousand lawsuits in the lower courts A realist view of Kavanaugh Sen.

In this blockbuster show, we lay out the bare truth of the power of the courts. We go through the history of Marbury, the true lessons from that era, and how the Warren court adulterated its principles. Who gets to determine the interpretation of the Constitution? We answer that question from our Founders' perspective and explain how they would not recognize the power of the courts today.  Show links The history of judicial supremacism  Lower courts are showing why the next scotus pick won't necessarily save us Copyright CRTV.

The weight of the entire political universe has come down on the side of the illegal alien families who are separated as a result of their own callous actions violating our sovereignty and endangering our security. Yet nobody wants to focus on the victims of illegal immigrants. We have committed a focus on victims of crime and illegal immigration here at the Conservative Conscience and are honored to talk today with Aileen Smith. Aileen and her husband Zach lost their unborn son Dimitri in 2012 after an illegal alien crashed into them and severely injured the passengers. This was unbelievably avoidable, because the illegal driver was arrested eight times for DUI and was never turned over to ICE thanks to sanctuary policies in New Mexico. Aileen discusses what it’s like to go through the personal and financial ruin of seeking justice from murderers.  It’s especially bad when the perpetrator is a member of a protected class. The victims get no help in these cases because it’s not politically correct to do so. There needs to be a greater outcry for the victims of illegal immigration, the security problems of sanctuary cities, and the need to get tougher on drunk driving in general.  Show links Go Fund Me: Justice for Dimitri The extent of the illegal alien drunk driving problem Copyright CRTV.

We give a long and broad look at the trends and issues in both the lower courts and Supreme Court and discuss, based on this background, who we need. Most importantly, we need certainty.  Show links What conservative want in a Supreme Court justice What will change and what won't with a new justice   Copyright CRTV. All rights reserved.

Today we are joined by Brandon Judd, the president of the National Border Patrol Council, who is also an active duty agent. He sets the record straight about the policies of the Border Patrol dealing with families and how fundamentally nothing has changed, except that the media’s coverage is hampering the Border Patrol's job and empowering the drug cartels while fueling the very unfortunate outcomes for illegal immigrants that they claim to oppose.  Brandon’s central point is that our policies, magnets for bogus asylum claims, are used by the cartels to tie up the border agents and create gaps in our security. That is when they are sending in the really bad people who pay a lot of money to be smuggled over the border. Thus, open-border policies and the media are exacerbating the crisis and hurting everyone. They have caught thousands of criminals just this year, and those are just the people who already had criminal records in America. There’s no way of knowing how many have done bad things in their home countries. And with the surge of bogus asylum seekers, it is harder for Border Patrol to apprehend these people.  We also briefly touch on Anthony Kennedy’s retirement, with some initial thoughts on what’s next.

Today, we digest the blockbuster Supreme Court finale.  While we are winning some short-term battles at the courts, if we don’t get vigilant about the problems with the lower courts, we will still lose the war. We dissect each important element of Trump v. Hawaii and preview some other cases. We also showcase the hypocrisy of Anthony Kennedy on religious liberty when it comes into conflict with his protected classes.  Show links Scotus on immigration: A sovereign republic – if you can keep it  Understand state sovereignty on immigration   Copyright CRTV.
