Conservative Review with Daniel Horowitz

Today, we commemorate the 79th anniversary of D-day by noting that those brave boys could have never imagined they’d be fighting for a country like the one we live in today. We are the sickest generation in body, mind, and soul. I explain how we are at a crossroads in the Rainbow Jihad and have the ability to push the Overton window back, but reluctant Republicans are harming us. Moreover, those running the courts, including a Trump appointee, are trying to enshrine drag shows into the First Amendment. We also delve into this generation's physical sickness created by Big Pharma. Despite everything we know about the death toll of these vaccines, Republicans continue to fund them. I also note how those on the Left are gloating about how they gave Republicans all the talking points in the debt ceiling deal while maintaining the victories on substance.

I begin today’s show by noting we will never change politics without a change in political leadership. The debt ceiling fight certainly showed us that. But are conservative voters even interested in substance? Possibly not, but as my colleague Steve Deace says on today’s show, we are lucky that the first state to vote is one that takes the process more seriously. Steve explains how the Iowa caucuses are a parochial process that are skewed not just toward committed church-goers but also toward higher-information voters. This works against Trump’s winning formula, which all too often has protected him from the harm his ideological flaws would otherwise cause with conservative voters in other states. Steve lays out the path for DeSantis and uses historical precedent to show how Iowa bucks the political paradigm, including even unanimous polling data in the closing stretch of the campaign.

All my colleagues are laughing about Biden stumbling and wandering in public. But the laugh is on us. He is killing us on policy because we have fake leaders in the GOP. And yes, that includes McCarthy and Trump. I explain how Trump is responsible for undermining our leverage against McCarthy, then remained silent on the debt limit fight, allowing Biden to clean his clock. Trump also disqualified himself from the nomination by refusing to recognize even the problems with the COVID shots, much less the biomedical security state, this late in the game. Later on, we’re joined by Rep. Chip Roy, who gives us the inside scoop as to how GOP leaders betrayed their agreement. He is hopeful that the original list of 20 freedom fighters has grown and that there will be a reckoning against this betrayal.   Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Today, we cover some of the most vexing issues of our time with Dr. Peter McCullough. Based on his research, he has developed a theory that in addition to the cultural grooming, gender dysphoria has been turbocharged by the rise of autism, and the bad actors in culture and medicine preying upon vulnerability. He posits that the autistic are already more susceptible to this sort of mental illness, and when they are pumped up with excess testosterone, it also leads to more violence. There is a growing trend ignored by the media of those who have gone through gender mutilation committing mass shootings. But what is causing all of this autism? While there might be multiple factors, Dr. McCullough believes it is inescapable that mass hyper-vaccination with so many inflammatory shots at once raises one’s risk for autism. As always, he brings the receipts on the academic literature he cites. We discuss the need to audit all the vaccines, stop the new ones, abolish the concept of a childhood schedule, and certainly end mandates and liability waivers for shots.  Learn more about your ad choices.

Kevin McCarthy didn’t get outmaneuvered by Joe Biden. I review the provisions of the debt ceiling betrayal bill to show how each one was deviously crafted to give the impression of a conservative victory, but actually makes us worse off than we’d be under a clean, short-term debt limit increase. We’re joined by Rep. Dan Bishop, who is calling for a motion to vacate the chair. He warns that McCarthy’s behavior demonstrates he will get worse from here and screw us on other fights as well. He also says that McCarthy purposely extended the debt limit increase an extra year when Democrats weren’t even asking for it. Why? He fears the debt limit deadline even more than Biden and wanted to make sure he was never put into a position where he’d have to fight for conservatives again.   Learn more about your ad choices.

McCarthy’s debt ceiling bill was not just a sellout; it was an act of political adultery. Today, I break down the details and the background of the deal in a way you will not hear elsewhere. I explain what went wrong with the messaging and how McCarthy turned the debt ceiling brinksmanship into a plague to be avoided rather than an opportunity. It is literally better to pass a short-term increase than this bill. It will make it impossible to fight Biden for the remainder of his presidency. I prove how the bill was a lot worse than what we would expect, even with a small minority. Let’s not forget that McCarthy supported Democrat budget bills throughout Trump’s presidency. Let’s also not forget that Trump pressured conservatives during the fight against McCarthy and severely degraded our leverage to remove him from office.  Learn more about your ad choices.

Today, I offer you the history of Trump’s presidency like nobody else has done. Every single budget bill he signed had almost unanimous Democrat support but was opposed by DeSantis and the Freedom Caucus. They were acts of political adultery that we are still languishing from to this very day. We are where we are today on debt, inflation, and the border because of Trump’s failure. We continue to fail because we don’t focus on a mission. The Left doesn’t have that problem. I read a list of dozens of crazy accomplishments Democrats have achieved in Minnesota. Finally, I end with my annual Memorial Day message. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

First, we’re at a crossroads in the fight for civilization with gender sanity. We’re actually turning the corner on a cultural issue for once – with the successful pushback against Target and Bud Light. But will that victory endure? How does the presidential election factor into this calculus? I’m joined by Dave Reaboi, a Claremont Institute fellow and DeSantis supporter, who makes the case for why Ron DeSantis will help serve as a rising tide for our agenda. He explains why, even though he’s given up on the federal government and advocates for national divorce, he still believes it is helpful to have a national voice giving tailwinds to our agenda. Even though many of us believe the federal government is irremediably broken, Reaboi observes that the actual presidential election provides us with the greatest educational platform to shift cultural, political, and legal paradigms. He believes that DeSantis is the greatest chance for us to harness state power to protect our prerogatives and execute our agenda.   Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Continuing our discussion from yesterday, the biggest thing we lack is a national advocate who properly messages our policies and strategies. I offer an update on the debt ceiling, how Republicans are failing to properly message our position, and how they are accentuating the false talking point of default on the debt. We need to focus primarily on the quality of spending, such as the green new deal, illegal aliens, and Ukraine, not on random across-the-board cuts or welfare programs. Focus on the issues of the time. Next, I discuss how the green energy agenda is going to be used for the next lockdown and how GOP governors are facilitating it. Finally, we delve into Tim Scott’s run for president and how he is the worst mix of the establishment and a Trump facilitator who has no soul. Learn more about your ad choices.

Today, I offer my initial thoughts on why it’s important that DeSantis win the nomination. I don’t think the presidential election matters much in terms of our ability to fix the federal government. I don’t think anyone can, and I think we instead need to focus on red-state interposition. But where it does matter is in terms of setting the tone for the sort of candidates, policies, strategies, and messages we need for our other endeavors. Trump gives us headwinds, while DeSantis offers us tailwinds. I also delve into the DeSantis family dynamic and how the importance of a strong, vibrant family as the symbol of our movement is an underrated feature of this race. It’s actually more important that we have someone like DeSantis as leader of the party and movement than the actual office of the presidency itself. Learn more about your ad choices.
