CR Podcast with Daniel Horowitz

We’re joined by my friend Sean Kennedy, executive director of the Coalition for Law, Order and Safety and expert on crime policy, to discuss all the ways the FBI has distorted the crime data to show a “historic” drop in crime. In fact, officials have changed the way they count, they use multiple methodologies, and there is so much missing data. This is proven by several parallel measures that indicate crime is either going up or coasting at high levels, depending on the category. We also discuss the appallingly low clearance rates for crimes and how, given the technology we have, it should be impossible for street thugs to evade law enforcement. Yet there is a political ideology pervading most political leaders that makes them pro-criminal. This is why they want to cover up the crime bubble, so they can absolve themselves of any responsibility to deter, apprehend, and incarcerate dangerous people.

Today, we celebrate Constitution Day and the system of government we once had but no longer do. However, what we still have in place are sovereign states. Today I make the legal argument for states to deter the border invasion. We’re joined by Jessica Vaughan of the Center for Immigration Studies, who proposes several innovative ideas for states to use their police powers to deter the invasion. She believes the key is to leverage criminal laws on employment, human trafficking, drugs, vagrancy, trespassing, and other relatively low-level crimes to threaten the illegal aliens with prison time but also offer them a ticket home to avoid that prison time. She also discusses the importance of enforcing employment and trafficking laws against labor brokers who staff businesses with illegal aliens, in addition to states clamping down on identity theft.

She explains how Republicans fail to speak to the morality and empathy of a policy issue, which is how the Left is able to needlessly peel off married women. This is the thesis of her upcoming book, "Toxic Empathy." We also discuss the fact that Republicans need to lose some of their stupid "woke Right" image that needlessly turns off voters, rather than ditching biblical values.

As part of my series interviewing leaders of state freedom caucuses at the first annual summit in Dallas, I'm joined by South Dakota state Rep. Tony Randolph, vice-chair of the state's freedom caucus. You will see why there is a need for the freedom caucus in a state we should be running up the score, but cannot do so because of uniparty leaders like Kristi Noem.

He explains how the good old boys’ network in Georgia refuses to fight Democrats on election fraud, Fani Willis’ indictments, or even illegal immigration after the murder of Laken Riley. Moore’s actions have gotten him removed from the GOP conference and banned from entering the state House chamber. Moore’s presentation gives us the perfect illustration of both why we need to do surgery on the GOP and how to do it. Absent such surgery, more red states will turn blue.

We’re then joined by Oklahoma state Senator Dusty Deevers, who is the vice chair of the newly created Oklahoma Freedom Caucus. He delves into all the reasons why Oklahoma is not red and why the Republicans push crony capitalism and illegal immigration. He also makes the passionate case for abolishing abortion and believes Republicans have always been weak on the issue.

We’re here in Dallas today to celebrate the success of the State Freedom Caucus Network and strategize for the coming years. In a detailed and freewheeling interview, Andy Roth, the president of the network, explains how he was able to create a de facto new party within the Republican Party. He discusses how these members have been able to move the red states to the right, force RINOs into a do-or-die mode of action, and survive 95% of the primary challenges despite being outspent. If you are looking to get involved in the issues that matter in your state, if you have a Freedom Caucus, you are in business.

I’m joined by Rep. Chip Roy (R-Texas), who is laying down the gauntlet for his colleagues. Chip authored the SAVE Act, which would prevent noncitizens from voting. He believes that attaching it to the budget bill is the most realistic way we could engage in a pre-election policy fight on a meaningful issue that will increase the chances that Republicans win. We engage in a freewheeling discussion of how Republicans must make a big play in order to win this election, why Republicans are underperforming, and what to expect from House Republicans if they pull it out in November.

We’re joined by my friend Andy Fox, who just won a seat on the Knox County Commission, for a fun discussion on how to run for local office. We discuss both the imperative and the mechanics of running for local office. We need to break out of this dynamic of politics being a spectator sport rather than a participatory sport on the right. We also discuss the importance of mid-sized red counties like Knox County and how the Left is beginning to make inroads into these areas. Fox believes that the historical conservative nature of these counties has bred complacency and has perpetuated a class of Republicans who still believe they can and must compromise with people who will destroy their heritage. Are you up to the challenge of keeping your red county conservative?

Trevor Lee (R), who discusses the legislature’s recent reforms to the ballot initiative process. Soros and his allies are using direct democracy and oligarchy, which not coincidentally tend to merge into one, in order to make red states blue. They are mixing initiative petitions with ranked-choice voting, unelected redistricting commissions, and judicial supremacy to enact what they cannot achieve in a legislature. Trevor discusses his fight to make the legislature supreme in lawmaking, as our founders envisioned. We also discuss the need for state Republican parties to refuse election money and hold conventions instead of primaries. Finally, Trevor warns that states like Utah are being seeded with refugees and illegal aliens who are changing the character of the state – and it’s all by design. Unless we get involved in local red-state elections, we cannot enact these reforms. And if we fail to enact these reforms, red states will turn blue.

She celebrates a state supreme court decision that will help block this pipeline project and its accompanying land grab. She has an important presentation on how land controls food and he who controls the food controls the people. If we don’t push back against the green new deal and anti-freedom land and farming policies, cattle ranches will become extinct, and a handful of foreign-owned companies will ensure we lack a diverse and abundant supply of cheap, healthy meat. The fights for land use, cattle ranching, and deregulation, along with opposing green energy and conservation subsidies, are among our most important to-do items this coming legislative session.

Conservatives likely picked up 11 seats in the Wyoming House and now should have a governing majority in both chambers. We discuss the opportunities and challenges of fighting the GOP establishment and how we could easily change the agenda of red states if we only remained focused.

We’re joined by Utah state Rep. Phil Lyman, who is challenging Gov. Spencer Cox as a write-in candidate during the general election. Lyman makes the case for why this situation is different. He believes that he is the rightful nominee after having won the convention. He describes the web of corruption surrounding the players and the process through which Cox gathered signatures. He also shows how Cox is so liberal that it would actually be worse for him to win than the Democrat. This is something we must keep in mind for the future in other states, if we ever hope to finally break out of the vicious cycle of uniparty failure theater.

Emily Phillips, who got elected as a school board member fighting mask mandates and is now challenging a RINO state senator. She explains why her election embodies both the opportunities and challenges conservatives face in making red-state legislatures red. They are trying to shield members from having to take tough votes, and her entire mission is to force them to take those tough votes. She also shows how RINOs are so shameless and have no fear of God that they are willing to lie about conservative challengers and paint them as liberals. It was so bad that Emily’s opponent, a mask supporter, photoshopped a picture of her with a mask to try to make her out to be a COVID freak when in fact she was the local champion against mask mandates.

Full audio version: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the-second-most-important-election-this-year-guest/id1065050908?i=1000665478999 We begin by discussing the need for conservatives to focus on down-ballot races and other important action items that will determine whether we preserve red-state America regardless of what occurs at the top of the ballot. We’re joined today by James Uthmeier, chief of staff to Gov. Ron DeSantis, who is running the Florida Freedom Fund to prevent Florida from becoming California. He warns that Amendment 4 is the most radical abortion initiative in the country. It will codify abortion until birth with zero parental notification and no ability of the legislature to regulate any aspect of the procedure, health care provider, or clinic. The Left is using egregiously deceptive language to vote on poll-tested talking points rather than genuine lawmaking. This is why we must restrict the initiative petition process to preserve Red America. Likewise, James warns that Amendment 3 is the most open-ended marijuana legalization that will make it free to use in every corner of the state – public and private – and will result in turning the state into California. He notes that if conservatives only got on the playing field, we’d easily beat back both amendments. Donate at https://floridafreedomfund.com/

She warns that global governments are building all of the ingredients for COVID 2.0: use of emergency authorities, gain-of-function research, sudden emergence of mRNA vaccines, and countermeasures that harm freedom and the economy. It’s eerie how similar the playbook is to COVID. In particular, she warns that they are attacking the food supply. We must pass laws in states banning gain-of-function research and also tightening regulations on labeling mRNA in the food supply.

We cover everything from the recent yen crisis and electric vehicle grift to the Federal Reserve stupidity and predicting where the economy will head in the next few months. Tracy notes that because America is the “cleanest of the dirty shirts,” the Fed might be able to continue its Ponzi scheme of artificially inflating the market to the benefit of those who already have a lot of capital, but the average consumer is now facing permanent stagflation. Ultimately, we need to move away from a command economy, cut spending, and abolish the Fed, but there is zero appetite in either party to do what it will take.

Full audio show here: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/conservative-review-with-daniel-horowitz/id1065050908 We're joined today by BlazeTV host Kevin Freeman, author of "Pirate Money." He is building a movement in the legislatures not only to make gold and silver legal tender but to make it practical and functional for today’s digital dollar transactions. His plan will direct the state to create gold-backed savings and checking accounts such that consumers can pay vendors with debit cards in dollars but have the account backed by gold. He also thinks we should add silver to the mix too. Kevin explains how this is the single most viable plan to pull the rug out from under the communism at the federal level, make red states strong, and use your money as a bulwark against tyranny.

I’m joined by Dr. Kirk Moore, a Utah plastic surgeon who is being indicted by the feds for allegedly discarding 2,000 doses of the shots and helping patients escape the death shot mandates. This is a man who put the Nuremberg Code and Hippocratic Oath ahead of lawless HHS rules, and now the Justice Department is trying to stop him from offering a “defense of necessity” at trial. Why? Because officials don’t want the vaccines to be placed on trial and for the jury to realize that the doctor did the right thing. Moore’s case is a reminder of how many American heroes are relying on the results of this election for pardons. We can’t grift our way to victory. We must be willing to fight like Dr. Moore.

This is being used to blind Israel and restrain Israelis from defending themselves. Badran goes into great detail about the extent of our assets and personnel on the ground and how this Lebanese grift was strong even under Republican administrations. Tony warns Trump to stay away from people who would expend American capital on our enemies.
