Conservative Review with Daniel Horowitz

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.

I begin today’s show discussing how yesterday’s budget vote was a perfect example of Kabuki theater where both parties wanted the government funding bill to pass, but they passed out hall passes to members who needed to vote against it. I’m joined by Rosemary Jenks of the Immigration Accountability Project, who has been fighting mass migration for 36 years. She has an urgent message on what we must do in this narrow window to right the ship on deportations, focus on workplace enforcement and stolen identity, empower state enforcement, and codify Trump’s executive orders in Congress. The window to save America is closing. She outlines a concrete battle plan — from worksite enforcement to impeaching lawless judges — that the GOP refuses to use. Learn more about your ad choices.

America is facing something far more dangerous than protest or even rioting — it is an ongoing insurrection against federal immigration law. In this episode, I'm joined by former DHS official and legal expert George Fishman to break down why President Trump must immediately invoke the Insurrection Act to stop coordinated street violence, judicial obstruction, and open attacks on ICE officers in blue states. Fishman explains how the Insurrection Act has been used throughout American history — from Eisenhower to George Washington — and why today’s coordinated effort to block immigration enforcement meets every legal threshold for invocation. I also discuss the double standard: how J6 defendants were prosecuted vs. current anti-ICE rioters; how judicial supremacy is nullifying the 1996 Immigration Act; the GOP's failure to use leverage in the DHS funding fight; and state-based enforcement as the final line of defense.

The two-party system is a mirage, and unelected judges are destroying America. It’s time for a new 1776. In this episode, I expose the hard truth: Elections have become meaningless. America has become a one-party system, where Republicans and Democrats differ in rhetoric but govern the same when it matters most — especially on spending, the economy, immigration, and sovereignty. Worse, even when voters demand change, judicial supremacy overrides the will of the people. Unelected judges now function as super-legislators, blocking enforcement of immigration law, nullifying state authority, and shredding the Constitution — all without accountability.  As we approach the 250th anniversary of the American founding,  we are facing a crisis deeper than any election cycle — a system in which voting no longer governs the governed.

Generative AI was sold as the next industrial revolution — but what if it is doing very little good and creating much harm? Cognitive scientist and AI expert Gary Marcus joins Daniel Horowitz to expose why large language models are failing to deliver real productivity, damaging human cognition, and consuming massive amounts of capital with little return. Instead of a productivity boom, we are seeing a misallocation of capital, massive energy waste for data centers, and an internet filled with "algorithmic slop." Gary explains why LLMs are just "autocomplete on steroids" and why the promise of artificial general intelligence is failing to deliver profits. We also discuss the cognitive atrophy of the next generation, the theft of intellectual property, and why China might actually be winning by NOT destroying its education system with chatbots.

What happens when someone who grew up under Islam tells the West what it doesn’t want to hear? Former Muslim and Christian convert Danny Burmawi of the Ideological Defense Institute delivers a stark warning about mass migration, political Islam, and the future of Western civilization. Danny explains why mass Muslim migration is transforming Western societies in ways most Americans don’t understand. He bluntly warns that there is only one form of Islam and that it requires adherence to jihad. Some Muslim dictators are suppressing it in the hopes of achieving economic prosperity, but that is not trickling down to the Muslims living in the West, thanks to the subversion of Western elites allowing political Islam to operate with impunity. I also discuss my thoughts on how the Left is completely crushing Trump on immigration. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

The job numbers do not reflect how large a labor depression young workers are facing. We’re joined by labor market consultant Amanda Goodall (@thejobchick), who paints a grim picture of employment prospects in nearly every sector. She believes that offshoring and outsourcing are the real culprits. We break down why AI isn’t the real culprit, how corporations game hiring systems, and why entry-level jobs now demand years of experience that don’t exist. This conversation exposes why the American dream is collapsing for young workers — and why politicians refuse to address it. I also address Trump’s handling of the Minnesota riots and immigration standoff, explaining how federal authority collapsed, why rioters got what they wanted, and how blue states are openly defying the federal enforcement. In some perverse way, we can learn a lot from blue states on how to fight back against a future Democrat president.  Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Is the Trump administration speaking loudly but carrying a white flag? I break down why conservatives are suffering all the political liabilities of the current presidency while reaping none of the policy benefits. From the failure to codify executive orders to the endorsement of Speaker Mike Johnson (R-La.) and failure to follow through on fighting sanctuary cities and rioters, we analyze why fake executive orders and threats are worse than doing nothing. I also dive deep into the real data behind the U.S. housing market. Contrary to the "supply shortage" narrative, Redfin data shows a record 47% more home sellers than buyers in December. I explain why high interest rates and inflationary spending — not a lack of homes — are crushing affordability and why the administration might secretly want to keep prices high. Plus, a look at the AI data center" crisis threatening the U.S. power grid at a time when the grid is teetering due to a very cold winter.   Learn more about your ad choices.

Gold and silver talk; political gaslighting walks. I’m joined today by Peter Schiff, the famed investor who predicted this day would come. As gold hits $5,000 and silver tops $100, Schiff warns that this is actually just the beginning, not the end, of their rise. In this explosive conversation, Peter Schiff explains why we are facing a currency crisis and how the dollar will lose its reserve currency status. He also explains why Bitcoin will never be like gold and how the stock market is actually crashing relative to gold. Moreover, we delve into the myth that deflation is a bad thing and how the government continues to fuel inflation but is losing control of the economy.  Learn more about your ad choices.

Today, I identify all the factors that have led to Trump’s logistical, legal, and public relations failure on deportation. He needed to focus on codifying his agenda in Congress, stripping the courts of jurisdiction, enshrining and encouraging state enforcement, using ships instead of planes for removals, and — most importantly — cut off the magnets so that illegal immigrants would return home on their own. Instead, Trump told ICE to lay off the non-criminal aliens. Also, Trump is now supporting spending bills that undo his entire agenda and actually increase spending on Biden’s policies — so much so that Democrats are celebrating his spending bills and are all voting for them. Finally, I discuss how Trump’s foreign policy is erratic, not America First, and is all about pleasing Qatar and Turkey. It’s not for the faint of heart, but it’s the unvarnished truth.  Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
