Conservative Review with Daniel Horowitz

Now that Republicans surrendered domestic policy to Biden, he has a free lane to mess with Israel’s sovereignty. We’re joined today by Lee Smith of Tablet magazine, who explains how Biden has purposely allied with Iran to imperil Israel and then give the impression that Israel needs him to protect its territory from Iran. Lee makes the case that Israel needs to become independent of U.S. aid while we focus on the Islamization here at home. Israel needs to crush the jihadists in order to tamp down the inspiration for jihad among Americans living here. Unfortunately, Speaker Johnson (R-La.) is playing into the Biden administration’s effort to divide the Right by making Israel about foreign aid and tacking on Ukraine funding rather than countering Biden’s policies against Israel. What Republicans should be doing is using must-pass bills to defund the PLO, the Iran deal, and the Lebanese armed forces, abrogate Biden’s alliance with Qatar, designate the Muslim Brotherhood as a terror group, and cut off immigration from Middle Eastern countries.

Speaker Johnson (R-La.) once again massacred conservatives on Friday by reauthorizing an expanded version of FISA 702 spying, despite bipartisan support against it. He was the tie vote against requiring a warrant. Yet not only did Trump decline to pressure him, he gave Johnson complete cover at Mar-a-Lago. In addition, Trump held a press conference on Friday promoting Ukraine funding, bashing anti-abortion laws, opposing the motion to vacate the speakership, and promoting Obamacare. I warn that Trump is being compromised by a quest for wealthy donors and that if we don’t work to push him to the right, this dangerous leftward slide will accelerate. I also give baseline thoughts on Iran’s attack on Israel and how the Biden administration is working with Iran and even ordered the attack. Rather than focusing on foreign aid, the GOP House should have used leverage on budgets and reauthorization bills to prohibit Biden’s policies empowering Israel’s enemies.   Learn more about your ad choices.

Americans love privacy. There is bipartisan support for requiring a warrant to query any information on Americans swept up in this surveillance program. Why are Republicans allowed to squander that once again? And why aren’t conservatives pressuring Trump to drop his support for Johnson on this issue, as well as Ukraine funding? Later on, we’re joined by Rep. Warren Davidson (R-Ohio), one of the pioneers in the fight for privacy, who is trying to force a vote banning the government from purchasing our data from third-party vendors. He explains how the 702 program has proven to be abused and is much broader than people realize. We have a government that openly lets in thousands of dangerous Middle Eastern terrorists and violent Latin American gangs, and then they turn around and demand we authorize domestic spying under the guise of national security. This is anarcho-tyranny at its best.  Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

What if I told you we already have the raw materials for a new party without having to go through the insurmountable process of getting a new party line on the ballot? I’m joined today by Andy Roth, president of the State Freedom Caucus Network, who paints a vivid description of how the Freedom Caucuses are serving as a branded movement to upend the uniparty in what should be red states. Liberal Republicans are now retiring because Freedom Caucus members have made their grift feel so miserable. Andy’s only regret is that he didn’t do this earlier. The key is that the members are all principles and focused on issues, not personality and drama. You can have a big tent for various issues, but you need a core that is not tainted by foreign influence or grifting personalities. Separately, I discuss how to win on abortion and how Florida polling proves the point.  Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

What happens when you build a mindlessly populist movement unmoored from any principles or strategic goals? Well, you get what we have today, which is elements of MAGA embracing abortion, Bruce Jenner, Log Cabin Republicans, and now even Hamas. I delve into Tucker Carlson’s complete conversion into a Hamas-promoting leftist – all to politically own one Jew he happens to dislike. We don’t have time for this nonsense. I give the Biblical analogy from Kings 12 with Jeroboam and Rehoboam on how a movement built on just rote opposition without any affirmative beliefs winds up being worse than the movement it is critiquing in the first place. Just know that we don’t need to sign on to false choices.  Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

We always hear the conservative noise machine industry tell us that unless we vote Republican every other November, we will be stuck with socialism. Well, I’ve got news for you: We already have permanent socialism, and merely focusing on the topline ballot of the general election will not fix that. The only way to end the venture socialism from which we already suffer is for states to begin adopting gold and silver currency. Today, I offer a broad presentation of economic and labor data proving that we now face a permanent recession in the job market as consumer prices, credit, and debt skyrocket to record levels. These problems are much greater than the ability of any one general election — even with good Republican candidates — to solve. We need to stop with the distractions and begin fighting as if our lives are on the line ... because they actually are.  Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

The solar eclipse will only last a few minutes, but the mooning we have incurred from Trump’s political eclipse has distracted us for eight years. I address Trump’s ridiculous comments on abortion today and demonstrate how they are emblematic of a broader problem in that he doesn’t believe or understand a lot of our values. Therefore, at the first sight of political trouble, he tosses the issue overboard. It would sure help if Trump would at least parlay his retreat on abortion into a fight for bodily autonomy against the biomedical security state. But alas, because of his mooning on the vaccine issue, no amount of information that comes out about the deadly shots is moving the needle on the policy front. I detail some of the new studies on the shots showing a shocking percentage of people suffered cardiac damage and that the damage is long-lasting.  Learn more about your ad choices.

From the old GOP to the Tea Party and then MAGA, our movement has constantly been hijacked by a controlled opposition designed to subvert and blunt our momentum on issues. I explain how the "Bruce Gender" movement is designed to slow our natural momentum we have against the Rainbow Jihad. So, what is the solution? There is no better illustration of a movement pursuing affirmative good than the South Carolina Freedom Caucus. We are joined today by Evan Newman, the state director, who gives us a seminar on how to build a smart, principled legislative caucus to completely expose and defeat the uni-party. He recounts all of this year’s successes and how the Freedom Caucus now has challengers to roughly half of the mainstay Republicans. The Freedom Caucus focuses on quality over quantity, ensures members are actively fighting to move the Overton window, and then openly campaigns across the state against the GOP. If we replicate this for a few cycles in other red states, we will have a different country. In other words, it doesn’t have to be this way.  Learn more about your ad choices.

We turn to foreign policy today, first, to discuss the latest effort from Speaker Johnson (R-La.) to push Ukraine funding, unfortunately with the blessing of Trump. I contrast the lack of courage on the Right to influence Trump with the success of the radical Left and Islamic organizations that are successfully taking an anti-Israel president and making him even more diabolically opposed to the Jewish state. We’re joined by Yoram Hazony, an Israeli leader in the global national conservatism movement, to summarize the state of affairs in Israel six months after the October 7 attack. He warns that Israel is under attack on multiple fronts and cannot afford to bend to Biden’s will. He explains how the radical Left’s marriage with Islamic organizations has created a political juggernaut within the Democrat Party. Yoram, who is related to a hostage in Gaza and also has two sons fighting in the IDF, discusses the political sentiments of Israelis on the war when everyone has skin in the game. What can we as Americans learn from Israel’s dire predicament?   Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

First, we start out noting the progress we are making pushing immigration enforcement in red states and how we could do so much more if we only stayed focused. We need big solutions to serious problems. One area of vital importance in which we have yet to succeed in pushing red states into righteousness is interposing against FBI tyranny. We’re joined today by FBI whistleblower Steve Friend to explain his bill, Tennessee SB 2804/HB2912, which would give local sheriffs and police chiefs veto power over which cases their officers can work with the FBI. His bill was shot down, but if we push similar bills elsewhere, we will gain momentum. Friend gives the proper way to push this idea with local Republican officials. Friend himself is now suffering retaliation from the FBI, as the agency pulls his credit records for no reason. We also discuss how millions of liberals who believe our speech and beliefs are criminal are now calling the FBI to get them to investigate protected speech under the First Amendment. We can’t simply wish this problem away, nor can we meme or grift off it. We must push for a robust safety net in local law enforcement to protect civil liberties.   Learn more about your ad choices.
