Conservative Review with Daniel Horowitz

Today, I offer everything you need to know about the House budget reconciliation proposal. It will blow a massive hole in the deficit, exacerbate inflation, provide Democrats with a good campaign message, and leave us with no accomplishments. Instead, I lay out a vision of what Trump should do with welfare reform, ending foreign worker programs, cutting all global warming regulations, repealing Ob...

So many of us have been inspired by Trump’s executive orders, but unfortunately most of them will not last, because Republicans have not changed who they are. I explain why Trump needs to push back against judicial supremacism and demand a better budget reconciliation bill in Congress in order for him to stick the landing on his agenda. Sadly, Republicans have not changed even in deep-red states....

Unless we terminate the erroneous notion of judicial supremacism, we will be left with tyranny, and Trump and red states will be powerless to change anything. In today’s extra-long episode, I offer the definitive history, legal case, and philosophical argument against judicial supremacism and in favor of constitutional decompartmentalization. I explain the system our founders adopted and rejected,...

There is a ton of focus on Trump’s White House, which is why we are getting a lot of good policies. However, there is less focus on Trump’s interaction with Congress and primary endorsements. Hence, we get a lot less. Today, I raise some concerns about progress on immigration enforcement and spending cuts. While Trump has signaled a good direction on a lot of policies, many of them are not resulti...

It’s worse than you think. Republicans won a huge mandate in Texas, yet a group of RINOs worked with Democrats to hand control of the legislature to Democrats. We’re joined by Rep. Brian Harrison (R), one of the few conservatives willing to fight corrupt leaders, for an in-depth discussion on how decent conservatives get co-opted by the very leadership empowering Democrats. In a wide-ranging discu...

We begin by discussing the need for Trump to get better on endorsements and also set a direction for Congress to include his executive orders in budget reconciliation. This is the only way to secure enduring victories. Nowhere is this more evident than with immigration. Today, I explain why we have one chance to finally end illegal immigration and why, if we don’t fully utilize street-level enforc...

Everyone is trying to make sense of Trump’s latest statements on taking over Gaza. Today, I build a thesis about Trump that is instructive in directing our focus for the next four years. Trump is great at thinking outside the box on big-picture goals. However, because he is not ideological, he is often prone to accepting deals, regardless of the exact details, just to show that his trolling worked...

The swamp is not just in D.C.; it’s in all 50 state Capitols. In fact, it’s even worse in red states, because there is no scrutiny from the public. We begin today by going through some examples of excellent legislation we could pass but that is being blocked by Republicans. I’m joined by Andy Roth of the State Freedom Caucus Network, who gives us his thoughts on the legislative sessions so far. Re...

Just like Joseph’s advice in Pharaoh’s dream, we need to build now in a time of ‘political plenty’ for when Democrats take back power.  To the end, I’m concerned about what the administration is doing to keep promoting the homosexual agenda minus the transgenderism.  We need to maximize the momentum and not allow subversive Republicans to blunt it.  Nowhere is this more evident than with immigrati...

We begin today with an update on the Florida RINO amnesty fight with Governor DeSantis. These people are hell-bent on bringing the state back to pre-DeSantis governance controlled by special interests. Yet they run on our issues when they campaign. This is why we must self-separate, and this is where the Freedom Caucus comes in. We’re joined today by Rep. Andy Harris (R-Md.), the new chairman of t...

We begin today with some domestic politics and the concern that RINOs continue to destroy red states while wrapping themselves in Trump’s name. People close to Trump who claim to share the values of the base need a strategy to shut this down. Next, we’re joined by our foremost Latin American affairs expert, Joseph Humire, for a riveting discussion on why we need to rebuild the Monroe Doctrine. Hum...

The Left pays its people to be activists. The Right pays people to be pundits. The reality is you get more of what you pay for. This is how RINOs continue to fool voters and get re-elected. I delve into depth of how the Florida legislative leaders subverted DeSantis’ effort to enforce immigration law while packaging their bill in Orwellian terms. We’re joined today by one of the best Florida legis...

What occurred this week in the Florida legislature is a Rosetta stone to cracking the code of GOP perfidy. Republicans are incorrigibly bought out by special interests and are just as favorably disposed to open borders as they ever were. The only thing that has changed is that they use Trump’s name to obfuscate their betrayals and make it even harder to defeat them in the primaries. I go through t...

Following the first week of the Trump administration, we have a lot of good policies and some bad ones. Our job is to cement the good ones into enduring victories while swiftly swatting down the bad ones. One of the challenges will be the courts. They are already standing up for illegal aliens and preventing states from enforcing the laws. I go through immigration, foreign policy, and spending to...

Today, we offer the full case against anchor-baby jurisprudence. I’m joined by Amy Swearer, senior legal fellow at the Heritage Foundation, who has written scholarly papers showing conclusively that the plain meaning of the 14th Amendment was not adopting unqualified birthright citizenship for foreigners and most certainly not for illegal aliens and temporary visitors. The entire philosophy of cit...

We begin today by continuing to connect the dots between the tech bros, Arab donors, and this push for AI data centers. It is reverberating across other important issues as well, such as immigration and foreign policy. These donors are continuing to steer Trump’s administration in the direction of Biden’s foreign policy. Next, we’re joined by Rep. Andy Biggs (R-Ariz.), a former Freedom Caucus chai...

We need to avoid playing "Lucy and the football" like we did during the first administration. I stress the need to fight to enshrine the good proposals of this administration but also to raise red flags about problematic trends. Trump has made it a priority to facilitate a half-trillion-dollar investment in seeding the country with AI centers. It is understandable to want to compete in AI innovati...

Today, I analyze Trump’s first day in office in general and the executive orders specifically. On the one hand, most of the orders are not yet enduring and we still have to cross a number of hurdles. But on the other hand, the willingness to get rid of things like birthright citizenship demonstrates that the sky is the limit in terms of the mandate. We need to think much bigger. There is no reason...

The excuses are over. The Democrats, the media, and their enablers have all been defeated. Trump has the greatest mandate, bully pulpit, and consolidation of power in modern history. He can use that power to crush the Left, or he can use that power to crush the right. It’s that simple. I lay out some realistic expectations of what Trump needs to do on energy and immigration beyond the initial exec...

The most important question in politics is this: Who treats politics as a means to policy outcomes, and who treats it as an end in itself? If you are in the former camp, you will be more appalled when Republicans do liberal things because that prevents us from ever achieving our goals. I use this theme to provide updates on the atrocious hostage deal, budget reconciliation, and some of the Cabinet...

Today, I dispel all of the loser arguments in favor of a hostage deal supported by Qatar, the Muslim Brotherhood, Biden, and every Democrat around. What we witnessed yesterday was the power and danger of the purported right-wing leader joining with the Left to crush us. It doesn’t have to be this way. I believe we are at a crossroads. If we ramp up the pressure on Trump, there are still good thing...

We could bury our heads in the sand, or we could force a course correction with Trump before it’s too late. Nobody is discussing this, but earlier this week, Trump’s Middle East envoy, Steve Witkoff, shocked the world and pressured Israel to accept a deal to essentially rebuild Hamas and release 1,000 terrorists in exchange for only some of the hostages, who might not even be alive. I explain what...

We begin today by discussing how Florida legislative leaders are pushing back against DeSantis because they actually still support illegal immigration. I demonstrate how Republicans in general are more left-wing than ever before. Next, we’re joined by a special guest who joins us anonymously under his social media screen name, Non-Hyphenated American. He came to the U.S. from India in 1991 through...

The bad news is that Trump and Republicans are already walking back campaign promises on inflation and immigration. The good news is that he hasn’t even taken office yet and none of this misdirection is irrevocable. This is why we are at a crossroads. We can either continue treating the party like a boyfriend and covering for its betrayals with excuses. Or we can treat them like wayward children a...

On today’s show, we make the cultural and economic case to shut down mass migration — both legal and illegal. We have to shoot high and move the Overton window. We’re joined by George Fishman, senior legal fellow at the Center for Immigration Studies and one of the foremost experts on immigration law, to discuss his recent piece arguing that the 1924 immigration law was the greatest piece of legis...
