Conservative Review with Daniel Horowitz

In this episode, we try to give some hope on the capitulation. All is not lost in the border fight, and there is actually another chance … if Trump changes tactics, messaging, policy, and personnel. I explain each element that needs to change. Personnel problems are killing conservative messaging and policies. Trump needs to use more executive action (that is lawful) and stand up to the courts. He needs to make this a broader issue than just the wall. What the cartels have done to this country is more severe in terms of drugs, crime, gangs, diseases, illegal migrants, cultural problems, and illegals voting than anything any other enemy can do to us. It’s time to designate them as terror groups and beef up our military presence. This will make Trump’s declaration of an emergency all the more understandable to the public.  If Trump makes this a broader issue about the severity of the cartels and illegal immigration, it will make Pelosi’s position untenable with the public.

There is unbounded chaos at most parts of our border, and we are pulling our hair out to find a solution. What if I told you there was one border county that is actually better off than ever, even with the growing crisis elsewhere? Wouldn’t you want to learn from its people's actions and understand what they do right? Mark Dannels is sheriff of Cochise County, Arizona, and has worked in local law enforcement at the border since 1984. His county was once called “cocaine alley” and had a major human smuggling problem. Then Dannels became sheriff, and things started to change. He made it known that he will prosecute 100 percent of those caught with drugs. While other states and localities are becoming weaker on drug prosecutions, he didn’t give into the pressure. He enforces all existing laws to the fullest. Any juvenile picked up for drugs will be prosecuted as an adult with a 100 percent conviction rate. Sheriff Dannels explains how being tough is actually the most humanitarian thing to do for all sides, because encouraging more juvenile smuggling dooms these youths to a life of abuse at the hands of the cartels. “You have to send the message that there are consequences for getting caught,” said the sheriff. He also explains his success in working together with the military and the feds on monitoring cameras and how they have close to a 70 percent interdiction rate. But that requires the human support behind it of people who are willing to actually enforce the law. They do this in his county, which is why the cartels are sending everyone all along the border, but not anywhere under his jurisdiction. You don’t mess with Sheriff Dannels.        Show links Our border agents are now terrified of the media and are obsessed with medical attentions for illegals Sheriff Dannels gets national recognition for his success Senate Republicans getting ready to block Trump, not illegal immigration Non-citizens voting in our elections is a huge problem   Copyright Blaze Media All Rights Reserved.

What is it going to take for us to get serious about the threat from the Mexican cartels? Jaeson Jones, veteran Texas DPS intel and counterterrorism officer, joins us for his second briefing (here is the first episode) on the severity of the cartels' threat. They are no longer just drug cartels; they are essentially global terror groups that need to be designated as such, according to Jones. Their weapons, tactics, and infrastructure have taken a “quantum leap” over the past few years, and our government always seems to be a step behind.  Show links Even Congress’ research arm vouches for president’s authority Rock-throwing operations by the cartels are used as diversions Cartels with armored vehicles My blueprint for what Trump should do next  Copyright Blaze Media LLC All Rights Reserved.   Learn more about your ad choices.

Conservatives need to tell the president to change course. His recent capitulations on the SOTU address and obsession with DACA amnesty all show that his advisers are not thinking outside the box. I lay out a three-part strategy for Trump to use the bully pulpit and get back on message, force Democrats to take tough votes, and then threaten to use his executive power to break the impasse. He needs to get more aggressive in pushing back against the courts, at least enough to force the Supreme Court to take up the issues.  Show links This article lines up with what I'm hearing Conservatives are facing failure unless Trump changes strategy   Why won’t we deport the 2 million known criminal aliens?

How do the anniversary of Roe v. Wade, judicial supremacy, and the crisis at our border all tie together? Tune in for the latest updates on how the Supreme Court is allowing lower courts to permanently alter our politics. I explain why conservative judges are no match for liberal judges once we countenance this game of judicial supremacism. Even when SCOTUS makes the right calls, it does so in such a weak manner that it fails to kill the growing judicial cancer in the lower courts. Nowhere is this more evident than with the lack of progress on stopping abortion and stopping the assault on our sovereignty.   I also update you on the pathetic Senate immigration bill that will be voted on this week and what the Senate should be doing that would change this debate.    Show links 60 million lives – the cost of judicial supremacism SCOTUS malfeasance on DACA Mexicans are paying in blood for our Central American amnesty policies Copyright Blaze Media LLC All Rights Reserved.

“You can’t just judge a threat based on body count alone.” Todd Bensman (@bensmanTodd), expert counterterrorism fellow at the Center for Immigration Studies, joins me today to discuss how the political class purposely refuses to recognize a threat until it’s too late. Specifically, we focus on how the media are refusing to recognize the problem of Middle Easterners coming to the border. They are debating prayer rugs as trace evidence when we have thousands of them coming in front of our eyes. He tells us how he’s been battling this problem his entire career. Why does the media not want the public to know? We also have a deep philosophical discussion about counterterrorism and demographics and how to prevent America from becoming like Europe both through our land border and through our visas.  The bottom line is that we must eschew this false dichotomy of “focus on this problem, but not that one.” We need to be honest and recognize all security problems before they reach critical mass and counter them at every strategic point.  Show links All of the political and policy problems with Trump’s amnesty offer Media’s stupid focus on trace evidence of Muslims at the border Copyright Blaze Media LLC All Rights Reserved Learn more about your ad choices.

Today I have a special treat for you in this bonus episode. I am joined by Mark Morgan, veteran FBI agent and chief of Border Patrol during President Obama’s final months in office. He gives us a firsthand account of all the problems, trends, and dangers at our border and why “we need to do it all including the wall.” Criminals, gang members, and Middle Easterners? You bet. They are all coming to our border, as logic dictates, gives our suicidal magnets in the legal system.  Morgan blows up a number of the media myths about the border. He tells us that this shouldn’t be political, and everyone needs to put aside the politics, just like he did personally when Trump fired him as chief of Border Patrol. This is an intelligence briefing on the border you will want to bookmark and replay in the future.  Show links Just how bad is judicial amnesty?

We need more Jeremiahs before we merit an Ezekiel. That is why Steve Deace wrote a new book, as a modern book of lamentation but also a decoder for what went wrong with the conservative movement. Before we can solve the problem, we need to be truthful with ourselves about the severity of the problem. We need to recognize that if we continue to rely on false gods, we will only dig further into the progressive abyss.  Steve wrote "Truth Bombs: Confronting the Lies Conservatives Believe (To Our Own Demise)" to slay those false gods so we can even discuss a spiritual revival and turn to the real God for solutions. In these 80 minutes, we slay as many false conservative gods as you will ever come across in just one show. Be sure to listen to every minute! Copyright Blaze Media LLC.All rights reserved.

When you thought our national security priorities couldn’t get worse, think again. I discuss how it’s a disgrace that we are still losing good men in Syria for nothing while we bring in terrorists and Sharia supremacists to our country. I tie this in to the latest absurd illegal immigration and criminal justice stories. Illegals control us with lawsuits.  We merely live in their universe. They can now sue law enforcement and then use years of lawsuits as an excuse to remain in the country and have anchor babies.  Show links We are still giving aid to Hezbollah in Lebanon Just how screwed up is our Syria policy?

In today’s episode, I deviate from our typical policy decisions and focus on the problem in conservative media with racial politics. Many are so sensitive to the charge of racism that, in my view, they themselves engage in racism by mollycoddling certain classes over others. We are all created in the image of God, and nobody should be condemned or elevated to a lesser or greater degree based on their color of their skin. In that context, I discuss the House resolution to condemn Steve King. As much as King has become ineffective with his remarks, nobody is trying to seek the truth of what he actually said. Moreover, the very people who are condemning him have met with those who say genocidal things about Jews and white people, which would be the equivalent of King meeting with David Duke – something that never happened. To suggest that somehow blatant racism among certain Democrats is not as much of a problem because they are non-whites, that in itself is the ultimate form of racism. A lot of things are true at the same time in this saga.  We need to move to a time when race plays no role in any political decision and everything we do is based on what is good for the whole of the people.     Show links List of 21 Dems who met with Farrakhan Interviews with law enforcement on the border emergency Copyright Blaze Media LLC.
