Leftist Political Violence: An Existential Threat to the Republic

Josh opens the show discussing the shocking attempted assassination of President Trump by a radical Leftist. He explains why the corporate media is once again running cover — downplaying the motive and falling back on the tired “both sides” narrative instead of confronting the extremism that fueled the attack. Josh argues that the Democratic Party must take responsibility and clearly root out these radicals rather than allowing dangerous rhetoric and fringe actors to creep into the political mainstream. He says the state of the country demands honesty about where this kind of extremism is coming from — and insists it’s up to the Left to confront and purge the evil within its own ranks. Later in the show, Josh turns to the latest redistricting battle, breaking down Florida’s push to redraw congressional maps in a way that could add additional Republican seats and reshape the political landscape ahead of the next election cycle.

No More Souters and No More Senate Betrayals

Josh opens the show with the rumors swirling about a possible Supreme Court vacancy this summer. If it happens, the stakes couldn’t be higher.

Rachel Bovard, Vice President of Programs at the Conservative Partnership Institute, joins Josh to break down the latest battles in Washington, including the push for the SAVE America Act and the growing divide among Republicans over the massive reconciliation bill. Josh also dives into the latest developments with Iran, reacting to what Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth said Friday and what it means for U.S. policy moving forward. To close the show, Josh tackles the biggest question facing the country: who we are as a nation — and how immigration plays a defining role in that identity.

Four Must-Haves for Any New Iran Deal

Josh opens the show by laying out the four conditions he believes must be met for a real deal with Iran, as negotiations are set to continue this week.

Josh is then joined by Trent England, Executive Director of Save Our States, to explain why efforts to eliminate the Electoral College in favor of a national popular vote are not about fairness, but about political advantage. England argues that the push to scrap the Electoral College is being driven by political actors looking to tilt the system in their favor.
