Conservative Review with Daniel Horowitz

Blue America is gone, and the national government is too big to save and irretrievable. The future of the conservative movement isn't in Washington — it's in your back yard.  Today I explain why the ultimate battleground for American culture and liberty has shifted to the local level. The uniparty and corporate elite are quietly transforming our communities through three major avenues: the expansion of foreign-funded mosques, the rise of the Flock automated license plate reader surveillance state, and the explosive, government-subsidized growth of AI data centers.  Plus, I offer mild optimism mixed with concern about the recent vaccine news, Fauci's unredacted text messages, and why the establishment GOP's primary endorsements are alienating the true grassroots.

What happened to the MAHA movement? Dr. Robert Malone returns to the show for a wide-ranging conversation about the future of medical freedom — and why the Make America Healthy Again movement has been irrevocably captured, corporatized, and assimilated into the very political establishment it was supposed to challenge. Malone examines what happened after Donald Trump brought Robert F. Kennedy Jr. into the administration, the growing divide between the original MAHA populist coalition and MAHA's institutional structures, and why medical freedom advocates are increasingly asking whether the movement has lost its independence. Malone argues that MAHA has become divided into different worlds: the institutional MAHA structure, MAHA inside the government, and the much larger grassroots coalition of medical freedom advocates, parents, health advocates, libertarians, and others who helped create the movement. The discussion then turns to a much bigger question: How does a populist movement avoid becoming the next failed and corrupted GOP political project? Learn more about your ad choices.

Why is the GOP establishment cheering the defeat of true conservatives while a deadly NEW mRNA flu vaccine gets rubber-stamped under its watch? Because the GOP is as negative effective for us politically as the COVID shots and mRNA that Trump supports. I'm joined by epidemiologist Nic Hulscher who reveals the horrifying truth about Moderna's newly FDA-approved mRNA flu vaccine. With zero true placebo control groups and a 75% adverse reaction rate in trials, this new injection is being rolled out under the conservative banner. You will hear why stopping the mRNA platform is the defining pro-life issue of our time and why the medical freedom movement is being betrayed in broad daylight. I also delve into the tragic defeat of Tennessee conservative Rep. Andy Ogles by a Democrat-backed Green Energy PAC — a subversion completely facilitated by the GOP infrastructure and ignored by MAGA inc. that fake-fights the GOP establishment.  Learn more about your ad choices.

I'm tired of the conservative movement's double game. I've had enough of Con Inc.'s white-pilling and distractions while refusing to confront the problem with Trump and Republicans so that we can finally build a real movement to actually redress their own supposed grievances. Republicans often celebrate headline-grabbing moments while overlooking policy decisions that move the country in the opposite direction from what was promised on the campaign trail. Con Inc. focus on symbolic battles while failing to hold Republican leadership accountable on issues ranging from vaccines and immigration to spending, technology policy, federal power, and state politics. Focusing on a dozen issues, I demonstrate why we need to finally come clean about Trump's true motivations and outcomes so that we can rebuild. We must shift our attention away from personality politics and toward state legislatures, primary elections, and issue-based activism. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

The “conservative movement” is walking us all into a trap. While everyone is distracted by Democrat primary drama, liberal Republicans and corporate interests are quietly taking over the reddest states in the nation because all of the self-proclaimed leaders on the right continue to ignore primaries — or worse, endorse the wrong candidates. I bring to life the disastrous lack of focus on GOP primaries and building up red-state political infrastructure, specifically looking at the Kansas and Missouri results last night. Then, retired Marine Corps colonel and Wyoming gubernatorial candidate Brent Bien joins the show to expose what is happening in America's most conservative state. Bien outlines his grassroots fight against the massive influx of data centers, green energy land-grabs, Flock camera surveillance, and lingering vaccine mandates. If we don't fight the fire in our own house, we won't have a red-state sanctuary left to defend. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Is the SAVE Act just a distraction? Over the past four decades, the United States has naturalized over 24 million immigrants, primarily from the third world, fundamentally and irrevocably transforming the American electorate. I do a deep dive into the staggering numbers behind legal immigration and naturalization, revealing why a complete immigration moratorium is vastly more critical to the survival of the country than current GOP talking points. In fact, the transformation in much of the country is already irrevocable, and a moratorium is needed to save red America. I dive into the recent shocking admission from DHS Secretary Markwayne Mullin about the 900,000 naturalizations in just the last 12 months. I also analyze how this dwarfs the "great wave" of immigration. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

While Republicans outrage-monger over Fauci, the Trump administration is quietly continuing many of the same vaccine policies. I'm joined by civil rights attorney and medical freedom hero Aaron Siri to expose why medical freedom advocates are increasingly alarmed by the Trump administration's legal and policy decisions. Siri explains why the Department of Justice is still defending Biden-era vaccine policies in court, why vaccine mandates continue across much of America, and why meaningful reform has largely stalled despite the best efforts of Secretary Kennedy. The discussion also examines the nomination of a CDC director with a history of supporting vaccine mandates, ongoing lawsuits over religious exemptions, transparency battles involving the FDA, and why many Americans continue to face pressure from schools, employers, and health-care providers. One of the most compelling segments focuses on the Amish community in New York, where legal battles over vaccine mandates have raised broader questions about religious liberty, informed consent, and medical freedom. Siri discusses observations presented in court regarding health outcomes within Amish communities and why these cases have become central to the national debate. Learn more about your ad choices.

True free-market capitalism is dead. In its place, a hybrid of government and corporate actors have built a system of "privatized totalitarianism" and techno-feudalism. You think you have choices in your health care, your food, and your elections — but it's an illusion. I'm joined by political economist and author Charles Hugh Smith to break down the "golden painted leg chains" of modern American life. From the surveillance state and dynamic pricing to AI companies quietly shredding physical books to control history, Big Tech and the government have boxed out your options under the guise of "convenience." Worse yet, the political establishment — including Conservative Inc. — serves only to provide fake opposition, keeping you distracted with political theater while the oligarchy consolidates power. How do we break the monopoly? It starts by rejecting the ultra-processed life and decentralizing power back to our local counties. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Republicans and conservative media spent years demanding accountability for Anthony Fauci. But the real scandal is why are Republicans still refusing to confront the COVID vaccine policies, mandates, and medical-freedom issues that remain in place today? The Right has turned Fauci into a political punching bag while avoiding the harder question: What are Republicans actually doing to repeal the policies and mandates they claim to oppose? Donald Trump's continued defense of Operation Warp Speed and his record on COVID continue to impede the conservative movement from holding Republican leaders accountable for their positions on vaccines and medical freedom. I also lay out a sweeping list of unfinished medical-freedom priorities for red states, which have barely been pushed in most states outside Florida. Learn more about your ad choices.

The Republican establishment isn't just surviving — it is rebuilding its power because conservatives stopped fighting where elections are actually won: Republican primaries. Today, I explain why the conservative movement has become obsessed with exposing problems while ignoring the political battles that determine who writes the laws. The result? RINOs are no longer just surviving — they are defeating conservative incumbents with the backing of powerful special-interest money. Rep. Andy Ogles (R-Tenn.) joins the show to discuss how a green energy PAC aligned with Biden's renewable energy agenda is spending heavily to defeat him after he helped repeal Green New Deal subsidies. Yet voters are never told the real reason these outside groups are targeting conservatives, and their candidates run ads as if they are the true conservative. Learn more about your ad choices.

The fight over AI data centers has entered a disturbing new phase. The developers and local government officials are becoming more fascistic, immoral, and dishonest in their effort to avoid public scrutiny and opposition. Oklahoma farmer and grassroots activist Darren Blanchard joins me to expose how Big Tech developers and government officials are allegedly using intimidation, deception, and political pressure to force massive AI data center projects into rural America. After speaking just seconds beyond his allotted time at a local council meeting, Blanchard was arrested. But that wasn't the biggest revelation. Through public records requests, he uncovered what appeared to be hundreds of fraudulent emails sent to local officials using the names of real residents to manufacture public support for a controversial data center project. Some residents say they never sent the emails. One reportedly came from a deceased individual. We also cover the connection between data centers, solar projects, and land acquisition, and why farmers are raising concerns about the threats to food production. Finally, we get political and discuss the future of grassroots resistance to Big Tech and how it might spawn a new party.  Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Are there signs Republican voters have finally had it with the subversive GOP?  Will they finally refuse to participate in the “Vote GOP game” to get nothing, or worse, negative outcomes in return? Today, I look back on the negative efficacy of Trump's second term and expose Conservative Inc. as nothing but a "listless vessel" that has completely abandoned its base. From the failure to solve immigration to the crushing weight of inflation and the weaponization of the justice system, I break down exactly why the American Right is moving backward — and why simply voting for the "lesser of two evils" is a trap. It is time for a full-scale rebellion against Conservative Inc., but that will require a critical mass of Republican voters to realize that what we are doing is not working. Unfortunately, those Republicans in power — including Trump and his allies — are all too happy with the status quo because they are earning a fortune off America's rotting carcass.  Learn more about your ad choices.

AI data centers are not about innovation — they are part of a much larger political and economic agenda.  I'm joined by Tom DeWeese, founder of the American Policy Center and one of America's leading property rights advocates, to expose how massive AI data centers fit into a broader campaign of centralized land control.  We discuss how data centers intersect with Agenda 2030, 15-minute cities, smart cities, carbon capture, wind and solar projects, zoning changes, eminent domain, private property rights, surveillance technology, and the growing influence of NGOs on local governments. Are your local officials selling out your community's zoning laws to the highest bidder? Discover the truth about the C-40 cities, the war on cars, and why private property is the only thing standing between freedom and total top-down control. Learn more about your ad choices.

The recent court ruling on anchor babies is actively codifying illegal alien welfare entitlements — and the GOP is doing nothing to stop it. Immigration labor scholar Jason Richwine joins me to expose the true fiscal and cultural costs of mass migration, rooted in the stealing of citizenship by anchor babies. We discuss how birthright citizenship intersects with Medicaid, SNAP, housing costs, labor markets, mass migration, assimilation, and the long-term fiscal burden on American taxpayers. Jason uses Miami as a case study to show how even American-born children of those from the third world are not assimilating. If we don't end the balkanization of America and protect our sovereignty, the consequences will be irreversible. Yet the GOP really has not changed its tune one iota.  Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

 The push for hyperscale AI data centers in every county isn't about innovation — it's about centralized control, land grabs, and the surveillance state. China just beat the U.S. tech giants for a fraction of the cost. I'm joined by computer scientist and AI expert Jim Calhoun to expose the massive grift behind America's generative AI strategy. While U.S. tech giants like OpenAI, Microsoft, and Amazon take on trillions in debt to build massive, power-draining data centers, China just released a decentralized, open-weight AI model (Kimi-3) essentially for free. Calhoun breaks down why decentralized "edge computing" is the real future of AI and why Big Tech's current path is a dangerous misallocation of capital disguised as a "Sputnik moment."

Why do the same conservative promises keep getting made election after election — while almost nothing actually changes? Today, I argue that the biggest obstacle to solving America's problems isn't liberal Republicans — it's the financial incentives inside the Republican Party and "conservative inc." All of the loudest voices on the Right earn their careers, audiences, and influence from maintaining the status quo rather than fixing it. Through this thesis, I examine a couple of major betrayals of core MAGA and conservative priorities, including immigration enforcement, COVID vaccine policy, judicial power, government surveillance, primary elections, foreign policy, data centers, and more. If you've ever wondered why campaign promises rarely become policy, this episode serves it up to you 100 proof. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

The Republican Party keeps asking conservatives to focus on the last election or the next election — but never on what Republicans can accomplish with the power they already have. Today, I expose the GOP's "double game" and the perennial "con inc." media perpetuation of it. Trump and Republicans continue to ratchet up rhetoric on immigration, election integrity, spending cuts, and America First policies while governing in ways that benefit donors, Wall Street, Big Tech, and entrenched interests. Plus, I take a deep dive into the fake AI arms race: why China's edge computing and "Moonshot" AI are crushing the U.S. while American politicians obsess over data centers that destroy rural farmland. It is time for conservatives to do what the disenfranchised Whig Party members did in 1854 and build a new political movement. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Is the most famous red state in America already lost? I'm joined by my BlazeTV colleague Sara Gonzales to expose the shocking, silent takeover of Texas that weak Republican leaders are ignoring. From massive H-1B visa fraud fundamentally transforming the DFW suburbs (Frisco, Plano, Irving) to the rapid spread of foreign-funded Islamic centers in Texas towns, the demographic and cultural shift is happening faster than anyone realizes. Sara Gonzales drops bombshell shoe-leather reporting on how ghost offices, corrupt tech consultancies, and terror-linked funding are exploiting a broken system while RINOs stay asleep at the wheel. They aren't just taking jobs and housing; they are taking over local politics. It's time for Texans — and all red-state Americans — to wake up, fight back, and make our communities inhospitable to radical transformation before it's too late. Learn more about your ad choices.

The "golden economy" is a myth, and the American middle class is footing the bill. Legendary investor Peter Schiff joins me to expose the crony capitalism, out-of-control inflation, and massive government spending crippling our free market. From skyrocketing national debt and the Federal Reserve's endless money-printing to the dangerous AI tech bubble, political insider trading, ill-conceived tariffs, and dumb tax bills, nothing about our current system operates as a true free market. Schiff breaks down why tariffs and debt act as a hidden tax on consumers, how the political elite — including both Democrats and Republicans — are getting incredibly wealthy off government intervention, and why the "inflation tax" is here to stay unless we see massive cuts to government spending. Plus, Peter Schiff reveals the shocking story of how he was allegedly shadow-banned by Fox for simply telling the truth about the economy because Trump was upset.  Learn more about your ad choices.

Are we living in an economic hell disguised as capitalism? Author Charles Hugh Smith joins me to expose the "ultra-processed" economy and how government monopolies have completely destroyed the free market.  We are two generations deep into a system of regulatory capture, endless spending, and Federal Reserve market distortions. The result? "Venture socialism" and privatized totalitarianism where massive corporations no longer must compete for your business, driving up costs while quality of life regresses. Smith dives deep into how government monopolies, the decay of the moral order required for capitalism to function, and a corrupt political class have created a centralized economy that is now privatized totalitarianism.  Learn more about your ad choices.

The GOP is the song that never ends — and it produces absolutely nothing for conservatives. Today, I tackle the 800-pound gorilla in the room: the negative efficacy of the modern Republican Party. While conservative media obsesses over D.C. drama and electoral seats, the GOP acts as a controlled opposition — passing radical left-wing policies like the Section 8 housing that Democrats could never pass alone without intense electoral backlash. I walk through the numbers behind our current "anarcho-tyranny," the failure to dismantle judicial supremacy, the staggering $3.2 trillion in new debt, and why the "Jesus complex" surrounding national figures is blinding the conservative movement. More importantly, I outline the blueprint for a modern revolutionary spirit: pulling back from national idolatry and building a "political kill zone" at the local level through committees of correspondence, independent local media, and micro-targeted legislative pushback. But do enough conservative voters really desire change?  Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

The Supreme Court ruled on an abstract question of citizenship—but does that mean red states have to hand out birth certificates to invaders like candy? I'm joined by Texas State Representative Brian Harrison to expose why states like Texas already have the authority to stop issuing birth certificates to illegal aliens and birth tourists, yet Republican supermajorities refuse to act. It is actually state agencies that control birth records, yet Republicans continue surrendering despite holding overwhelming legislative power. In fact, Harrison warns that Texas even advertises that illegal aliens can use foreign documents and library cards from Honduras to steal citizenship from all of us on behalf of their children. The conversation expands into a broader indictment of Republican governance in red states, covering judicial supremacy, illegal immigration, sanctuary policies, surveillance, Flock cameras, data centers, corporate welfare, property taxes, and why conservatives continue losing despite impervious Republican control of government. If conservatives refuse to challenge judicial supremacy and state bureaucracies, no election victory will ever produce meaningful change. Learn more about your ad choices.

For generations, the automobile represented American freedom. Today, it has quietly become one of the most powerful surveillance tools ever created. Today, I'm joined by automotive expert Lauren Fix to expose how modern vehicles are collecting massive amounts of personal data — from your location and driving habits to Bluetooth devices, passengers, and even your attention behind the wheel. Now the Flock-style cameras will have “SimpleTrace” technology that can track not just the car but every device you have in it. Thanks to government mandates under the guise of safety, car companies have a green light to create surveillance technology that collects, monetizes, and sells your personal data. If Americans don't push back, the symbol of freedom that built this country could become the ultimate tool of digital control. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

The two biggest issues we face from the techno-feudalist state are Flock cameras and data centers. Today, I expose how the professional Right has abandoned these critical issues — favoring algorithms and political loyalty over actual policy — and explore the grassroots, Tea Party-style pushback happening in rural communities and city halls across the country. Americans across the country are pushing back against Flock surveillance cameras and the rapid expansion of AI data centers, yet the conservative establishment remains largely silent because we have atrophied our political movement for 11 years. We go in-depth about the future of artificial intelligence, the economic consequences of massive data center construction, AI reliability, government surveillance, Fourth Amendment concerns, local resistance movements, and why the conservative movement has abandoned issue-based activism in favor of personality politics.    Learn more about your ad choices.

Pennsylvania State Trooper Michael Pahira Jr. was tragically killed by an illegal alien truck driver — a preventable tragedy that exposes a massive, deadly problem on America's highways. Why is the GOP refusing to act? I'm joined by Shannon Everett, co-founder of American Truckers United, to expose the horrifying reality of the non-domiciled CDL crisis. Hundreds of thousands of illegal aliens are currently driving 80,000-pound commercial trucks across the country, exploiting freight brokers, setting up "No Name" LLCs, and replacing American workers under the USMCA. Despite a clear mandate, federal bills like Dalilah's Law are stalled and red states are failing to revoke reciprocity for these illicit licenses. Everett breaks down the exact federal and state action items needed to get illegal alien truck drivers off the roads immediately and restore safety to our highways.  Why is the easiest immigration problem to solve still being ignored?

On the 250th anniversary of the Declaration of Independence, it's time for a new kind of revolution. On today's special show, I derive lessons from that faithful day and how to apply our founding ethos to today's debacle. But we have to first want dramatic change. The problem is that many so-called conservatives are too comfortable with the status quo of the GOP and the way it governs. I'm joined by Noah Wall, president of the State Leadership Initiative, to discuss the uncomfortable truth about red America: Our so-called conservative states are crippled by federal dependency and corporate welfare. From billions of taxpayer dollars funneled into woke corporations to accepting socialist federal mandates just to keep Medicaid and SNAP funding flowing, red states are subsidizing the very institutions trying to destroy them. It's time to break the umbilical cord, end the venture socialism of the modern GOP, and reclaim state sovereignty before it's too late. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Conservatives are being played by the GOP. Today I break down how Republican media is trying to white-pill conservatives into complying with the latest judicial tyranny on the promise of fighting “the next time” and “appointing better judges.” I explain the devastating reality of judicial tyranny and why voting for the GOP to simply "appoint better judges" is a rigged game we are losing.  We need to reclaim the spirit of 1776 and understand that you can't comply your way out of tyranny by keeping the status quo. Moreover, the notion that they will listen to the court but attempt to neutralize it with other immigration policies is absurd, because those same courts will rule against them the next time. The good news is that we are winning on a number of issues and nearly every important issue we fight on. The problem is that we don't yet have an organized movement to fight on the most important issues of our time because of the GOP's defeat mechanism.   Learn more about your ad choices.

This will be the most important show you listened to analyzing the Supreme Court's anchor baby opinion. What is more important than the opinion itself is what Trump, Congress, the red states, and the political Right will do in response. Today, you will learn why it is impossible for the Supreme Court to be correct about the Fourteenth Amendment, why it's impossible the court has the authority to rule on this with finality, and why Trump and Congress have an obligation to only use their powers in concert with the Constitution and the social compact. Today's ruling is only a travesty if we allow it to be.   Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Are we celebrating the Fourth of July while surrendering our actual freedoms? As we celebrate this momentous birthday, those in "con inc." who call themselves patriots have abrogated every ideal of the Declaration and the American Revolution. At a time when the patriot movement needs to be formulating plans to fulfill 1776 because the tyranny of today is much worse, leaders on the Right are white pilling the public into submission and passivity, as if Trump is taking care of us. I explain how this should apply to judicial supremacy as we await the court ruling granting citizenship to the entire world. I prove how the party has not changed one iota under Trump on immigration; in fact, it's gotten worse. Also, the latest news on Flock cameras and how Jeffrey Sovern, the Virginia USAF veteran who took down those cameras, should be the inspiration for a new red-state interposition against tyranny.

In today's special episode, I'm joined by Indiana Lt. Gov. Micah Beckwith (R), who is also a Pentecostal pastor, to discuss the danger of Islam in America. He has recently jousted with other Indiana Republicans who believe Islam can be treated like any other religion. Beckwith explains why it is not a real religion and why its political and strategic aims need to be countered immediately. We also delve into a much deeper discussion about the state of Christianity in America and on the political Right, the growing Jew hatred and antipathy toward the Old Testament in some circles, and the need to move away from the weak Republicans of last generation, who had toxic empathy but at the same time teach the new generation traditional virtue.  Learn more about your ad choices.

Conservatives are losing the country because they are too obsessed with electing fake Republicans. They are too focused on the quantity of Republicans rather than the quality and focus on a game of inches over a game of miles. Today, I expose the massive fraud at the heart of the GOP establishment, which is even greater than Democrat ballot fraud. We are playing a "game of inches" by obsessing over slim majorities in Congress, while the uniparty plays a "game of miles," quietly transforming our red states through massive Big Tech data center land-grabs, surveillance state Flock cameras, and crushing economic policies. It's time to stop prioritizing the quantity of Republicans and start demanding quality patriots. I'm also joined by Georgia lieutenant governor nominee Greg Dolezal, a Freedom Caucus conservative who shocked political observers by winning a statewide primary campaign centered on issues the establishment GOP refuses to touch: data centers, property taxes, corporate welfare, immigration, Islam, government subsidies, privacy, and the growing disconnect between voters and political elites. Plus, I explain why President Trump's 11th-hour opposition to the housing bill proves that the grassroots can still force Washington's hand.

Camden County Presiding Commissioner Ike Skelton reveals the dystopian reality of Flock cameras, the AI surveillance state, and why Big Tech is invading rural America with subsidized data centers.

He explains how government grants and public-private partnerships are bypassing the Fourth Amendment to create "vehicle fingerprints" and auditory surveillance networks.

Republicans just passed the most consequential housing bill in years — and almost nobody is paying attention. Sold as a solution to housing affordability and corporate home ownership, the legislation instead expands federal housing programs, incentivizes local zoning changes, promotes higher-density development, and gives Washington unprecedented leverage over local communities. This sweeping new housing bill uses federal grant money as a "carrot and stick" to pressure local Republican politicians and developers into destroying local zoning laws. The ultimate goal? To overdevelop exurbs, suburbs, and rural areas with high-density, multifamily, and Section 8 housing and “smart cities.”  Yet, because of the idolatry of Trump, we have no men standing in the breach to fight this.  Learn more about your ad choices.

What happens when Big Tech joins with utilities companies — the ultimate monopoly — to negotiate secret power deals? The American consumer loses. I sit down sits with former Wisconsin Public Service Commissioner Dan Eastman to expose how Big Tech companies and utility monopolies are pushing unprecedented electricity demands onto America's aging power grid. Eastman explains why utilities are incentivized to overbuild power infrastructure, how taxpayers could be left holding the bag for billions in stranded assets, and why sudden data center disconnections could create dangerous grid reliability problems. We also discuss secret NDAs, local government approvals, transmission line expansions, land-grabs in rural America, and the growing alliance between Silicon Valley and regulated utility monopolies.

Foreign policy doesn't fit on a bumper sticker, so I dedicate a full hour to discussing the outcome of the Iran war with Tablet magazine's Park MacDougald. He helps me analyze the fallout from the Iran agreement, the future of Israel and Lebanon, the role of JD Vance, and whether America is repeating the same failed Middle East strategy used by Obama and Biden. Unfortunately, what you are seeing is not an exercise in America First or even isolationism or neutrality in the Middle East. It's a far-left Wilsonian view that intervenes on behalf of Islamic enemies and will further entrench us in the war for years to come. Also, if our trillion-dollar military can't keep shipping lanes open against Iran, what happens when China moves on the shipping lanes in the South China Sea?  Learn more about your ad choices.

The AI industry promised a technological revolution. Instead, some of the biggest players are burning billions of dollars while demanding more data centers, more energy, more subsidies, and more government support. Meanwhile, their models — and the business model undergirding it — are rapidly failing. I'm joined by AI pioneer Gary Marcus to expose the growing cracks in the generative AI business model. OpenAI is reportedly losing tens of billions, while major tech companies slash token usage, cut spending, and confront the reality that the economics simply don't add up. Real AI innovation is moving away from the data center and LLM model at a time when companies are tripling down on debt-driven spending to prop it up. The future of AI will not look like ChatGPT. It is those tech bros, and the politicians who support them, who are holding up true technological innovation. Separately, but relatedly, I break down the latest political capitulations on the Iran deal, immigration, and how the "America First" agenda is being sold out to corporate interests.

Today's show should be bookmarked as the only economic message conservatives should give to young voters. America's affordability crisis didn't happen by accident. Decades of government intervention, Federal Reserve manipulation, corporate favoritism, and monopoly creation have transformed America into a stagflationary economy where young people can no longer afford homes, health care, education, or family formation. Why are housing prices at historic highs? Why is health care becoming unattainable? Why are wages failing to keep pace with inflation? And why do both political parties seem incapable of addressing the root causes? I argue that government-created monopolies, asset bubbles, artificial stock market inflation, foreign labor preferences, and crony capitalism have concentrated wealth while hollowing out the middle class. I lay out a vision and message for restoring true market competition, affordability, and economic opportunity before an entire generation turns toward socialism or worse.

Whether it's marijuana, high-potency THC products sold as candy, psychedelics, or vaping, the next generation of leaders are having their brains rotted out by the THC Inc. cartel that is purposely creating harmful addiction for profit. I'm joined by drug policy expert Kevin Sabet, founder of Smart Approaches to Marijuana, to expose the growing influence of the THC and marijuana industry on American politics, culture, and public health. Kevin makes the case that Big Tobacco has now bought out a lot of the largest THC companies and is using the same gaslighting tactic to promote fake medical benefits in order to promote addiction. We also discuss how medical marijuana and veterans have been used as a Trojan horse to promote a non-medical agenda and how Trump got bought out by the industry he used to hate and is, in turn, suppressing organized opposition to this agenda on the political Right.  Learn more about your ad choices.

Donald Trump's handling of the Iran war gives conservatives all the strategic and economic liabilities with absolutely none of the benefits. Today, I examine the outcome of the Iran conflict; the Strait of Hormuz; U.S. involvement in the Middle East; the role of Israel, Saudi Arabia, and Qatar; and the broader implications for American foreign policy. The sum total is that the Iran war is a perfect example of a larger problem within the Republican Party — giving conservatives all the liabilities of governing while delivering none of the policy victories they were promised. If you're tired of the gaslighting from Fox News, MAGA Inc., and the political establishment, this breakdown is a must-listen. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

American workers have been systematically replaced by foreign labor in more industries than we can count. I'm joined today by attorney John Miano, a computer programmer and fellow at the Center for Immigration Studies, to expose how two terms of Trump have done nothing to alter the trajectory. Despite promises of an "America First" immigration policy, the tech industry and corporate America continue to exploit foreign labor loopholes, leaving American graduates locked out of their own job markets. In this deep dive, Miano breaks down how Big Tech lobbies the executive branch, bypasses visa caps using the Optional Practical Training program, and why conservative leadership has failed to deliver meaningful, long-term immigration reform. Also, the courts are a one-way ratchet to greenlight any immigration expansion, but they block any restrictions that are in line with law and precedent.
