Conservative Review with Daniel Horowitz

The Republican Party is facing a “change or die” moment. Voters are angry, and Democrats are winning — not because voters like Democrats, but because many feel that the incumbent Republicans no longer oppose corporate power and the unnatural wealth transfer. In this episode, I break down why Democrats are outflanking Republicans on economic messaging and how Republicans are doubling down on policies that aren’t even conservative and represent terrible messaging. I contrast the bold message of Freedom Caucus candidates on land use, data centers, and putting the individual above business deals vs. the current message from top GOP leaders, which is the worst form of elitism and populism. Then, Iowa U.S. Senate candidate Jim Carlin joins the show to explain his campaign, centered on restoring real free markets, decentralizing economic power, and ending policies that benefit monopolies over families.

Americans are paying more than ever for increasingly unhealthy food — yet ranchers are going out of business. In this interview, I sit down with Texas rancher Texas Slim, owner of Beef.com and co-founder of the Beef Initiative, to discuss the growing movement to decentralize beef production and reconnect communities directly to the people raising their food. He explains how regulations, consolidation, and globalized supply chains have separated consumers from local farmers — and why rebuilding local food networks may be critical to the country’s future. From meatpacking monopolies and the threat of AI data centers draining our aquifers to the disappearing family farms, this conversation reveals how the modern food system works — and what a “cow-to-fork” model could change. If communities control their food, they control their future. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

America’s founders warned us about political parties — and today we are living inside that warning. In this episode, I break down how the modern GOP, the courts, immigration policy, and foreign policy failures all connect to the same structural problem George Washington predicted over 200 years ago. Why does the Right keep losing even after winning elections? Why are deportations stalled, courts overruling policy, and voters feeling unrepresented? The answer may not be bad politicians — it may be the system itself. I explain why the "Uniparty" is stronger than ever. We dive deep into George Washington’s farewell address and his prophetic warning about the dangers of political factions. I also tackle foreign policy and the shocking alignment with Qatar and Turkey, the betrayal of the Kurds in Syria, and the abandonment of U.S. pilots in Guinea. It’s time to stop waiting for a savior and start building a parallel movement for ordered liberty. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

If conservatives can’t win in West Virginia — a state with 90+ Republican legislators — where CAN they win? I expose why GOP primaries matter far more than general elections and why red states are quietly being transformed from within. In this explosive interview, West Virginia Delegate Chris Anders (R) explains why the newly formed West Virginia Freedom Caucus is taking on establishment Republicans over property rights and eminent domain abuse; data-center land-grabs; green energy subsidies; illegal immigration enforcement; corporate cronyism; and why 2026 primaries may decide the future of constitutional conservatism. Later on, I catch up on some national news stories on AI, judicial supremacism, and why elections will never matter if courts have the final word on every issue. After all, judges don’t stand for re-election. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Artificial intelligence is transforming everything from writing and research to medicine and productivity — or at least it appears to be doing so. But are we gaining only illusory efficiency at the cost of something deeper and more long-term? Are anti-market forces and government and industry gaslighting steering capital to the wrong uses of AI based on the assumption that we will achieve “general intelligence”? What responsibility do we have as humans to make sure we approach available LLMs in a way that won’t supplant human cognition? In this thought-provoking conversation, I sit down with leading innovation theorist John Nosta, author of "The Borrowed Mind: Reclaiming Human Thought in the Age of AI," to explore one of the most important questions of our time: Are we using AI as a tool to augment human thought, or are we slowly outsourcing our thinking to it? From "frictionless intelligence" being a trap and the myth of AGI to the danger of "cognitive obsolescence," Nosta reveals why the struggle to think is a feature, not a bug, of humanity.

Is America facing a housing crash — or is this the correction we actually need? I sit down with real estate expert Jon Brooks to dismantle the biggest myth in today’s economy: We do NOT have a housing supply shortage. Instead, we may be staring at the aftermath of artificially low mortgage rates, COVID-era speculation, government manipulation through QE and FHA loans, and a collapsing demand base. The "housing shortage" is a myth designed to prop up a bubble market. Here is the truth about real estate, the economy, and why you shouldn't buy a home right now. Separately, I cover why it’s a mistake for Trump to oppose any budget reconciliation legislation and to own the terrible status quo economy by calling it “golden” and suggesting there is nothing more he wants to accomplish.  Learn more about your ad choices.

Republicans ran on fighting for the forgotten American — but instead became the very elite power structure they claimed to oppose. In this episode, I break down why the GOP is losing elections on issues conservatives don’t even agree with: Big Tech favoritism, elite corruption, corporate subsidies and venture socialism, data centers destroying farmland and rural America, Cabinet members with ties to Epstein, and corrupt deals with China and Arab states that sell out our national security. While Republicans cling to power without principles, Democrats are outflanking them on affordability, corruption, and working-class messaging — and the data proves it. Special elections, polling, and voter trends show a consistent 15-point GOP underperformance, putting even red states at risk. Democrats are successfully running as the “anti-elite” party. The question isn’t whether Republicans are losing — it’s why they’re losing for nothing. If conservatives are going to lose, shouldn’t it at least be for their own values?

Is the food you feed your children safe? Florida first lady Casey DeSantis joins me to reveal the shocking truth about toxins in America's food supply. Casey DeSantis discusses her groundbreaking new initiative, ExposingToxicFoods.com. While the FDA and EPA have been asleep at the wheel, Florida has taken matters into its own hands — testing common grocery store items like baby formula, candy, and bread. The results are terrifying. From arsenic and lead to glyphosate and heavy metals, the "safe" foods we have trusted for decades are fueling a chronic illness epidemic. We cover how Florida is leading the charge on informed consent and to get to the bottom of the chronic illness epidemic. This is just the beginning of the first lady’s fight for food safety and informed consent.  Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Permanent stagflation is no longer a theory — it’s here. I’m joined today by legendary investor economist Peter Schiff to break down why every major Trump-backed economic policy is inflationary, debt-driven, designed to subsidize affordability, and accelerating the collapse of jobs, markets, and the U.S. dollar. He explains why a weak dollar destroys American purchasing power, why tariffs are backfiring on manufacturers, and why the recent correction in gold and silver was likely a coordinated attack. Separately, I discuss Florida’s effort to expose toxins in food and how Trump continues to miss opportunities on immigration, sanctuary cities, and the courts.  Learn more about your ad choices.

I break down how Trump’s retreat on immigration enforcement — refusing to invoke the Insurrection Act, pulling ICE from hostile blue states, and parroting Democrat talking points about “non-criminal” illegal labor — has emboldened blue-state insurrection while completely neutralizing red states. Now blue states will impose this tyranny on us in red states when they take over at the federal level, but thanks to Trump’s bad endorsements, we will not have the infrastructure to fight Democrat tyranny the way blue states are successfully thwarting Trump. I also show how Trump is championing federal supremacy on all the wrong issues like gun control, AI, and land use, but not on immigration.    Learn more about your ad choices.
