There is more pervasive opinion on the Right that the GOP is a fake opposition than ever before. Yet these same commentators refuse to look in the mirror and recognize that they have enabled this for years and continue to do so to this day. They either sleep through the critical legislative fights and primaries or sometimes downright subvert them. I discuss the “code of silence” around pointing any finger at Trump for supporting Ukraine funding, even as everyone gets all red-faced over Speaker Johnson’s betrayal (with Trump’s support). Commentators are starting to acknowledge the red-state RIN ..read more

First, we make the case for why Speaker Johnson (R-La.) must be removed and why Trump must stop giving him cover. Johnson is about to screw us on Ukraine for no reason. I also explain how he made FISA 702 much worse than current law in a way that expands the NSA's power to almost any business or landowner with internet service onsite. Next, I delve into a monumental concurrence from Justices Gorsuch, Thomas, and Alito on how lower courts do not have the authority to issue universal injunctions. Unless state governors begin adopting this position, everything we seek to accomplish in the red sta ..read more

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 p ..read more

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 th ..read more

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 ..read more

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 m ..read more

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 skyroc ..read more

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 vacci ..read more

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 th ..read more

Today, I make the case that it’s better to get rid of Speaker Johnson (R-La.) even if that paralyzes the House for the remainder of the year. Johnson has already destroyed our leverage on any issue, so now the only thing he can do is pass bad bills. Unless we pressure Trump to change his mind, Johnson is about to pass a Ukraine funding bill with Trump’s blessing. Where are the MAGA influencers and Tucker speaking out against this? I explain why a second term of Trump will not change anything, precisely because his biggest supporters refuse to use their ties to him to move him to the right. Ne ..read more
