On today's episode of The Right Time, Bomani Jones discusses the New York Knicks hiring Mike Brown and T.J. Watt holding out. Bo begins the show by saying why this Mike Brown hire is interesting (1:59) because the Knicks should win the Eastern Conference with Jayson Tatum and Tyrese Haliburton injured (2:45). Bo continues by explaining why the Knicks do have an unreal amount of pressure on them and the clock is already ticking on this roster (10:28). Transitioning to the NFL, Bo talks about T.J. Watt holding out because he wants a Myles Garrett-type contract (18:25) and that this current Pittsburgh Steelers team reminds him of the Philadelphia Eagles 'Dream Team' because their roster is full of aging vets - which does not work in today's NFL (25:22). And finally, we have another round of If You Haven't Heard stories involving why Americans are sleeping less, billionaires going crazy and Gen Z having less sex (32:15). Then Bomani listens to some voicemails about the craziest thing you've seen someone do to get their money back.

Over the last decade, centrist Democrats have diligent courted Never Trump Republicans, hoping that this cohort could help create a new consensus politics to oppose the MAGA coalition. From the start, this strategy seemed flawed: after all, this faction is very small and also carries a lot of baggage. In particular, neo-conservatives such as William Kristol and David Frum, now Never Trump stalwarts, were responsible for two of the biggest foreign policy disasters in American history, George W. Bush's War on Terror and the invasion of Iraq.Have this Never Trump conservatives learned from history? Alas, as my colleague David Klion points out in a recent column, many of them haven't. Kristol and Frum are now cheerleading the attack on Iran (although to be fair their former ally Robert Kagan is more skeptical). I talked to David about the neocons and why they remain a pernicious force in American politics even if they vote against Trump.

After 12 days of frenzy over World War 3, the bombs and rockets over Tehran and Tel Aviv have stopped, for now. And, under relentless pressure from Donald Trump, NATO's members have all agreed to raise their defence spending to five per cent of GDP over the next 10 years. However Trump's victory lap has been interrupted by a leaked US intelligence report which says the attack on Iran's nuclear facilities did not obliterate them and may only have delayed their programme by a few months - so the President won't be getting that Nobel Peace Prize, just yet. Joining Piers Morgan to discuss the latest is White House Correspondent for Steve Bannon's War Room, Natalie Winters, former IDF spokesman Doron Spielman, author and journalist for Haaretz, Gideon Levy, staff writer at The Atlantic and former speechwriter for George W.

Jason Kander and Ravi Gupta unpack Trump's chaotic first 100 days as warning signs of a recession mount and the administration stokes a bizarre culture war—this time over girls' dolls. They examine Scott Bessent's comments on “strategic uncertainty,” David Frum's viral tweet on gendered consumer politics, and Trump's backpedaling on trade deals despite earlier promises. Kander and Gupta also dive into alarming new reports on Trump family corruption, including billions made through crypto ventures and foreign-backed investments that blatantly conflict with Trump's role as president. Plus, they break down the fallout from a scathing New York Magazine exposé on Senator John Fetterman's health and behavior, the turmoil in his office, and the growing calls for a special election in Pennsylvania.

Trump has effectively imposed a trade embargo on China, which means that after the inventory runs out, American retail will soon dry up. Since Europeans are already bypassing U.S. military contractors to beef up their defense spending —El Salvador is our only ally now— Trump is likely to do something desperate, like firing the Fed chair or seizing Greenland. American presidents decades from now will still be cleaning up what Trump did to this country in 2025. David Frum breaks down the insanity and stupidity of the vision behind the tariffs regime as well as the deep feelings of betrayal in Canada. If globalism means peace, prosperity, and commerce, then let's be globalists. David Frum joins guest host Jonathan V.

From reckless economic policies sparking stagflation to escalating trade wars with tariffs, Frum breaks down how these decisions could lead to a recession and higher costs for Americans. They also explore the lasting damage to America's credibility as a global security provider, with allies rethinking reliance on U.S. weapons and leadership. Topics include Trump's tariff strategy, Elon Musk's influence, stagflation explained, and the erosion of the post-World War II world order.

Note: Things got a little heated on CNN Friday morning. It's been a long election year. Nevertheless and always a mensch, Jonah addresses the controversy related to Donald Trump's recent comments regarding Liz Cheney. Manic, spiritually exhausted, and scarred from attempting to get Pippa into her Halloween costume, Jonah capitulates to a brief period of punditry until he is overwhelmed with nausea and pivots to a scathing critique of the right's new obsession with Robert F. Kennedy Jr. Later in the episode, Jonah gives a lesson on self-determination, indulges in even more Woodrow Wilson bashing, sings the praises of Yuval Levin once again, and dismantles the case for “unity.” Show Notes —Jonah's statement —Jonah's RFK Jr. tear —Matthew Scully on RFK Jr. —Jonathan Adler's response —Jonah's anti-endorsement endorsement —Wilson-gate —David Frum's defense of Wilson —Jonah on Mo News Podcast The Remnant is a production of The Dispatch, a digital media company covering politics, policy, and culture from a non-partisan, conservative perspective.
