Josh Hammer analyzes the Trump administration’s immigration enforcement strategy through the role of Tom Homan, including the arrest of Don Lemon, before turning to the cultural fascination surrounding Luigi Mangione and what it reveals about America’s growing confusion over justice and the death penalty. Rabbi Pinchas Taylor then joins to discuss the week’s Torah portion and the importance of Jewish-Christian bridge-building, and Josh closes with an encouraging reflection from a Young America’s Foundation event in Florida, offering a rare white-pill moment about the next generation.
Today, Josh breaks down the continued escalation unfolding in Minnesota and explains why this story has been building for weeks. He argues that it all traces back to the viral video released by Nick Shirley, which brought renewed national attention to the staggering fraud allegations in the state.
Josh is then joined by Kurt Schlichter, senior columnist at Townhall.com, to discuss the political fallout from the Minnesota chaos and what it could mean in both the short and long term. The two also look ahead to 2028, breaking down early frontrunners in both parties and what the next presidential cycle is already starting to reveal about the state of American politics.
Josh begins with an update on the now weeks-long stand-off between the Trump administration and the Democrat-led "sanctuary" insurrectionary bastions, such as Minnesota. Is President Trump taking his foot off the gas pedal, or is he committed to seeing this immigration enforcement mission through? The stakes are high—not merely for Minnesota, but also for other would-be insurrectionists throughout the country.
Josh also explains why Trump is stepping into the chaotic Pacific Palisades wildfire clean-up, now that it's been over a year since the tragedy. Finally, he explains why he is now part of a new initiative—the Greater Than Campaign—to overturn the Obergefell Supreme Court decision and restore traditional one-man/one-woman marriage policy to We the People, and also provides an update on the long-overdue retrieval of the final Israeli hostage in Gaza and what it could portend for regional peace.
Josh breaks down how left-wing activists protesting ICE operations across the country are adopting tactics that resemble those used by terrorist groups like Hamas in their public messaging and pursuit of martyrdom—bringing chaos and narrative manipulation to law enforcement confrontations. He also delivers a clear message to public officials, including Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz, who have compared federal immigration enforcement actions to Nazi Germany: Stop making those offensive and inaccurate comparisons.
Josh next provides the latest update on Iran and what is emerging from the administration regarding potential negotiations or a deal with Tehran.
He closes by calling out left-leaning sports reporters who use high-profile events like the Australian Open to ask political “gotcha” questions, arguing that they are injecting partisan politics into athletic competition.
Today, Josh breaks down the latest ICE-involved shooting in Minneapolis, where an agent fatally shot one of the individuals involved in the unrest. Josh explains why this flashpoint fits the broader Democratic playbook—weaponizing chaos, feeding the narrative machine, and turning criminals into martyrs—while noting that the facts still matter and the investigation is ongoing. Josh is then joined by Michael Doran, Senior Fellow at the Hudson Institute, for a wide-ranging discussion on Iran, the administration’s next moves, and the broader fight for sanity on the Right. Doran also offers a bold prediction about what Iran’s leadership could look like one year from now.
Today, Josh breaks down the GOP hearing from earlier this week, where Republicans went after "Special Prosecutor" Jack Smith and exposed just how politicized Smith was in his charges against President Trump. Josh argues that the time for talking is over—and that accountability needs to begin now, including potential charges against Smith.
Josh then turns to the March for Life in Washington, D.C., explaining why President Trump should be doing more to protect the rights of unborn babies and strengthen the pro-life cause.
Next, Josh tackles immigration, making the case that immigration law must be enforced—whether it’s Minnesota or the southern border—because without the rule of law, the country cannot function.
He closes with a look at President Trump’s new “Board of Peace,” what it could mean, and why it may be shaping up as a serious rival to the United Nations.
Josh opens the show by breaking down the latest developments in President Donald Trump’s push to acquire Greenland, including the announcement of an agreement in principle that would expand the U.S. presence and influence there.
He’s then joined by Florida Lt. Gov. Jay Collins to discuss his run for governor and to push back on misinformation being spread by his opponent.
Josh next turns to the latest out of Minnesota, where Attorney General Pam Bondi is overseeing arrests tied to riots that erupted inside at least one church in the Twin Cities over the weekend.
He closes the show with a cultural reflection on the importance of stay-at-home parents—pushing back against the dismissive attitude toward moms and dads who choose to raise their children full-time, and explaining why their role is foundational to a child’s development.
Josh breaks down President Trump’s headline-making speech at Davos, explaining why the president is right to confront the globalist elite head-on—and why making America’s case to the world, including on Greenland, matters. He then turns to the latest developments in Iran, as President Trump’s top advisers weigh potential paths forward. He closes by asking a blunt question: does a moderate Democrat still exist, in light of the increasingly radical news coming out of Virginia just days after a new Democratic governor took office?
Josh Hammer is joined by Mike Davis, President of the Article III Project, for a no-holds-barred breakdown of the legal war now gripping the country. The two tear into the Insurrection Act, immigration enforcement, and the escalating power struggle between federal authority and defiant states. They explain how activist judges, lawless local officials, and rogue state governments are pushing the nation toward a constitutional collision—and why the Trump administration’s legal strategy matters more than ever.
