Why is it that we have a one-sided civil war with only the left having an effective political movement? Why is it that we elevate subversive voices and politicians on the right who undermine our core values and outcomes? Today, we settle the ultimate debate between my colleague Steve Deace and me: Is it that conservative media voices spew garbage because they know that’s what conservative voters want to hear, similar to the false prophets in the Bible? Or is it that the conservative voters will take whatever they receive from conservative elites, and if we actually had better elites, we can come to the promised land? Steve has decisively come to the conclusion that the people are the problem. He makes a passionate case that although there is evidence conservative elites manipulate unsuspecting followers, DeSantis’ candidacy is the control group on this question. They knew about him and still chose sugar over steak. He believes that even if we had better leaders on the professional Right, a new parallel universe would inevitably develop to offer the people what they want. Because of the Baby Boomers and their lazy desire for comfort and the path of least resistance, we are stuck with them like the Israelites who wandered for 40 years in the desert.

Today, I continue to make the case for why Speaker Johnson needs to be removed and why Trump must be forced to drop his support for him. Johnson placed a dumb hate crimes bill on the floor yesterday, which has forced conservatives into a false choice. I warn how Johnson’s brand of Republicanism is actually fueling more anti-Semitism on the reactionary Right by stupidly making support for Israel about money and hate crimes legislation rather than about ending Islamic immigration and foreign funding of universities. That would synergize pro-Israel and pro-Jewish initiatives with America first. Later on, I offer updates on successes and failures in red states, including the toughest immigration law that just passed in Oklahoma but is about to be undermined by the governor.

Stop focusing on the general election. Now is primary time. Today, I explain the case for getting rid of Speaker Johnson (R-La.) and why the timing of most congressional primaries is optimal to maximize pressure on members. Everything going on today can be influenced through our own dominion over red states on the right, but that will require my colleges to demand that Trump stop supporting Johnson. I show how Trump continues to drift to the left and help bail Johnson out and is literally siding with Hakeem Jeffries (D-N.Y.). Finally, I discuss how the recent Utah convention shows that we can single-handedly take over the GOP in one election if we moved from popular primaries to representative conventions. It is the single closest idea I have to a silver bullet, and it’s shocking that we don’t have greater support around it.

You might have heard a lot this week about the Hamas riots on the college campuses, but where is this coming from? We’re joined today by Daniel Greenfield, an investigative journalist and writer at FrontPage magazine, who intricately connects the dots between Soros, the Ford Foundation, and Rockefeller money and the foreign Muslim Brotherhood promotion of the college riots. I also give a tutorial on constitutional rights and protests to show how there is a difference between freedom of speech and taking over public venues, in addition to school codes of conduct. Ultimately, I believe the anarchy in blue states juxtaposed to the way the riots are handled in places like Florida and Texas will accelerate the national divide, which is actually a good thing.

Today, I lament how Trump continues to slide to the left and run an ineffective campaign. Yet the very “GOP normie” voters who wrongly put all their eggs in the presidential election basket refuse to ensure that Trump actually puts together a winning strategy. I offer a postmortem on the Senate vote for the Ukraine grift and how Trump endorsed 24 of the 31 who supported it. We are continuing to sleep through another primary season, just like we slept through DeSantis. We’re living through the book of Kings. DeSantis is like Josiah in that he is leading in all the ways we desire, but privately we want to act just like the Left and believe in idols. Plus, “Flight 93 election” revisited eight years later.

Congress rarely meets on Saturday, but this week was different. Republican leaders joined with every Democrat to sell us out on foreign aid and everything else that is important. I take a sledgehammer to Mike Johnson (R-La.) for using the Bible and Israel to justify his betrayal when, in fact, even the Israel bill is full of provisions that negate Israel’s security and actually help harness anti-Semitism. Next, we’re joined by Thomas Massie (R-Ky.) for a very thorough debriefing on what occurred on Saturday. Massie explains how Johnson insidiously used a veterans’ bill to grease the skids for Schumer to pass the Ukraine agenda. He makes the full case against Johnson and calls upon his colleagues to sign the motion to vacate so that we can force Johnson out and avoid a floor vote. Also, Massie teases out a potential move to the Kentucky state Senate one day and why that is probably a step up from being in Congress.

There is a reason why we have a comatose movement that refuses to focus on red-state primaries and legislative sessions or holding Republicans accountable. It is so consumed by Trump and his subversion. I explain why Trump will continue to move to the left in pursuit of monied interests and how the conservative base will continue to be ineffective until it comes to terms with his failures. Next, we’re joined by Rep. Warren Davidson (R-Ohio), who gives us an update on Speaker Johnson’s legislative ground and pound. He explains how Johnson used procedures to maximize the success of Democrat foreign aid and how he has full support from the Biden administration.

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 RINO problem but fail to see how Trump has re-elected nearly every one of them and continues to do so to this day. These same commentators refuse to get involved in down-ballot primaries, refuse to engage in red-state legislative fights, and refuse to pressure Trump to the right.

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 states will be “vetoed” by the forum-shopped liberal judges. Also, I make the case for why I believe Trump is unlikely to win, but even if he does win, his presidency will be neutralized unless we end the practice of universal injunctions.

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 playing into the Biden administration’s effort to divide the Right by making Israel about foreign aid and tacking on Ukraine funding rather than countering Biden’s policies against Israel. What Republicans should be doing is using must-pass bills to defund the PLO, the Iran deal, and the Lebanese armed forces, abrogate Biden’s alliance with Qatar, designate the Muslim Brotherhood as a terror group, and cut off immigration from Middle Eastern countries.
