The Bad Boy of NHGOP Politics, Corey Lewandowski, returns to the NHJournal podcast to talk about the latest round of criminal indictments filed against former President Trump, as well as the current status of the FITN GOP primary. And he weighs in on the GOP governor's race, too.

And the new Emerson College poll of NH Republicans gives Trump a huge lead, while dropping Gov. Ron DeSantis into third place (by one point) behind Chris Christie. Director of Polling Spencer Kimball talks about the numbers behind the numbers and what they mean in the primary.

And a special guest! Who dropped into Twins Cigar Bar in Londonderry? Hint: He's running for POTUS, he's from Florida, and he's NOT Ron DeSantis.

Is the 'First in the Nation' GOP primary already over? Will Trump be on stage for the first POTUS debate? Does Trump winning the nomination mean the NHGOP loses everything in November 2024?

Those are just a few of the questions NHJournal puts to veteran NH GOP strategist Dave Carney, who analyzes the new NHJournal/Co-efficient poll and shares his insight about the state of the race. Carney, who's advising former state Senate President Chuck Morse in his bid for governor, also talks about how the #NHGov race is shaping up.

On this edition of the NHJournal podcast, smart people who understand politics talk about the impact of Gov. Chris Sununu's decision not to seek a record fifth term as governor. What does it mean for national politics and the fortunes of Republicans and Democrats in the Granite State?

Jessica Taylor with the Cook Political Report talks about the NH Gov's race ranking now that Sununu is out, and why the contest is likely to get significant national attention.

Then GOP strategist Jim Merrill and Greg Moore with AFP New Hampshire discuss Sununu's legacy as a political leader, and the likely impacts of his decision on the NHGOP.

Former U.N. Ambassador Nikki Haley joined the NHJournal podcast just hours after the U.S. Supreme Court ruled that race-based college admissions are unconstitutional. She talks about the breaking news with NHJ Managing Editor (and fellow South Carolinian) Michael Graham.

Haley also explains why she believes a robust foreign policy of defending Ukraine and confronting China is the right Republican approach, and how Biden's weakness is undermining American interests.

Morgan Ortagus with Polaris National Security is on the pod to talk about the role foreign policy will -- or at least should -- play in the First in the Nation primary and GOP politics. She also offers her expert view of the latest events out of Russia regarding the Wagner Group, and the claim that U.S. domestic policy is impacted by the choices we make regarding foreign intervention.

Plus Polaris is holding an "America the Great" Tour event with former U. N. Ambassador Nikki Haley in Portsmouth on June 28. Details are here.

Plus NHJournal's Michael Graham on Trump's continued support inside the NHGOP, and why it can all be traced back to Bill and Hillary Clinton.

New Hampshire State Sen. Jeb Bradley, like many of his GOP colleagues in the legislature, is confused by word from inside the Democratic caucus that they may have plans to blow up the state budget. "Don't let the perfect be the enemy of the good," he urges the leaders across the aisle in this edition of the NHJournal podcast.

Bradley also makes the conservative Republican case for continuing Medicaid expansion in New Hampshire, and why the business community hopes it will happen.

And in 2016, Bradley was on Gov. Chris Christie's team. With the N.J. governor headed to NHIOP Tuesday night to formally enter the race, will Bradley be on board again in 2024?

It's all in the podcast, hosted by Michael Graham.
