Advertise on podcast: Conservative Review with Daniel Horowitz

America’s founders warned us about political parties — and today we are living inside that warning. In this episode, I break down how the modern GOP, the courts, immigration policy, and foreign policy failures all connect to the same structural problem George Washington predicted over 200 years ago. Why does the Right keep losing even after winning elections? Why are deportations stalled, courts overruling policy, and voters feeling unrepresented? The answer may not be bad politicians — it may be the system itself. I explain why the "Uniparty" is stronger than ever. We dive deep into George Washington’s farewell address and his prophetic warning about the dangers of political factions. I also tackle foreign policy and the shocking alignment with Qatar and Turkey, the betrayal of the Kurds in Syria, and the abandonment of U.S. pilots in Guinea. It’s time to stop waiting for a savior and start building a parallel movement for ordered liberty. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

If conservatives can’t win in West Virginia — a state with 90+ Republican legislators — where CAN they win? I expose why GOP primaries matter far more than general elections and why red states are quietly being transformed from within. In this explosive interview, West Virginia Delegate Chris Anders (R) explains why the newly formed West Virginia Freedom Caucus is taking on establishment Republicans over property rights and eminent domain abuse; data-center land-grabs; green energy subsidies; illegal immigration enforcement; corporate cronyism; and why 2026 primaries may decide the future of constitutional conservatism. Later on, I catch up on some national news stories on AI, judicial supremacism, and why elections will never matter if courts have the final word on every issue. After all, judges don’t stand for re-election. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Artificial intelligence is transforming everything from writing and research to medicine and productivity — or at least it appears to be doing so. But are we gaining only illusory efficiency at the cost of something deeper and more long-term? Are anti-market forces and government and industry gaslighting steering capital to the wrong uses of AI based on the assumption that we will achieve “general intelligence”? What responsibility do we have as humans to make sure we approach available LLMs in a way that won’t supplant human cognition? In this thought-provoking conversation, I sit down with leading innovation theorist John Nosta, author of "The Borrowed Mind: Reclaiming Human Thought in the Age of AI," to explore one of the most important questions of our time: Are we using AI as a tool to augment human thought, or are we slowly outsourcing our thinking to it? From "frictionless intelligence" being a trap and the myth of AGI to the danger of "cognitive obsolescence," Nosta reveals why the struggle to think is a feature, not a bug, of humanity.

Is America facing a housing crash — or is this the correction we actually need? I sit down with real estate expert Jon Brooks to dismantle the biggest myth in today’s economy: We do NOT have a housing supply shortage. Instead, we may be staring at the aftermath of artificially low mortgage rates, COVID-era speculation, government manipulation through QE and FHA loans, and a collapsing demand base. The "housing shortage" is a myth designed to prop up a bubble market. Here is the truth about real estate, the economy, and why you shouldn't buy a home right now. Separately, I cover why it’s a mistake for Trump to oppose any budget reconciliation legislation and to own the terrible status quo economy by calling it “golden” and suggesting there is nothing more he wants to accomplish.  Learn more about your ad choices.

Republicans ran on fighting for the forgotten American — but instead became the very elite power structure they claimed to oppose. In this episode, I break down why the GOP is losing elections on issues conservatives don’t even agree with: Big Tech favoritism, elite corruption, corporate subsidies and venture socialism, data centers destroying farmland and rural America, Cabinet members with ties to Epstein, and corrupt deals with China and Arab states that sell out our national security. While Republicans cling to power without principles, Democrats are outflanking them on affordability, corruption, and working-class messaging — and the data proves it. Special elections, polling, and voter trends show a consistent 15-point GOP underperformance, putting even red states at risk. Democrats are successfully running as the “anti-elite” party. The question isn’t whether Republicans are losing — it’s why they’re losing for nothing. If conservatives are going to lose, shouldn’t it at least be for their own values?

Is the food you feed your children safe? Florida first lady Casey DeSantis joins me to reveal the shocking truth about toxins in America's food supply. Casey DeSantis discusses her groundbreaking new initiative, ExposingToxicFoods.com. While the FDA and EPA have been asleep at the wheel, Florida has taken matters into its own hands — testing common grocery store items like baby formula, candy, and bread. The results are terrifying. From arsenic and lead to glyphosate and heavy metals, the "safe" foods we have trusted for decades are fueling a chronic illness epidemic. We cover how Florida is leading the charge on informed consent and to get to the bottom of the chronic illness epidemic. This is just the beginning of the first lady’s fight for food safety and informed consent.  Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Permanent stagflation is no longer a theory — it’s here. I’m joined today by legendary investor economist Peter Schiff to break down why every major Trump-backed economic policy is inflationary, debt-driven, designed to subsidize affordability, and accelerating the collapse of jobs, markets, and the U.S. dollar. He explains why a weak dollar destroys American purchasing power, why tariffs are backfiring on manufacturers, and why the recent correction in gold and silver was likely a coordinated attack. Separately, I discuss Florida’s effort to expose toxins in food and how Trump continues to miss opportunities on immigration, sanctuary cities, and the courts.  Learn more about your ad choices.

I break down how Trump’s retreat on immigration enforcement — refusing to invoke the Insurrection Act, pulling ICE from hostile blue states, and parroting Democrat talking points about “non-criminal” illegal labor — has emboldened blue-state insurrection while completely neutralizing red states. Now blue states will impose this tyranny on us in red states when they take over at the federal level, but thanks to Trump’s bad endorsements, we will not have the infrastructure to fight Democrat tyranny the way blue states are successfully thwarting Trump. I also show how Trump is championing federal supremacy on all the wrong issues like gun control, AI, and land use, but not on immigration.    Learn more about your ad choices.

I begin today’s show discussing how yesterday’s budget vote was a perfect example of Kabuki theater where both parties wanted the government funding bill to pass, but they passed out hall passes to members who needed to vote against it. I’m joined by Rosemary Jenks of the Immigration Accountability Project, who has been fighting mass migration for 36 years. She has an urgent message on what we must do in this narrow window to right the ship on deportations, focus on workplace enforcement and stolen identity, empower state enforcement, and codify Trump’s executive orders in Congress. The window to save America is closing. She outlines a concrete battle plan — from worksite enforcement to impeaching lawless judges — that the GOP refuses to use. Learn more about your ad choices.

America is facing something far more dangerous than protest or even rioting — it is an ongoing insurrection against federal immigration law. In this episode, I'm joined by former DHS official and legal expert George Fishman to break down why President Trump must immediately invoke the Insurrection Act to stop coordinated street violence, judicial obstruction, and open attacks on ICE officers in blue states. Fishman explains how the Insurrection Act has been used throughout American history — from Eisenhower to George Washington — and why today’s coordinated effort to block immigration enforcement meets every legal threshold for invocation. I also discuss the double standard: how J6 defendants were prosecuted vs. current anti-ICE rioters; how judicial supremacy is nullifying the 1996 Immigration Act; the GOP's failure to use leverage in the DHS funding fight; and state-based enforcement as the final line of defense.

The two-party system is a mirage, and unelected judges are destroying America. It’s time for a new 1776. In this episode, I expose the hard truth: Elections have become meaningless. America has become a one-party system, where Republicans and Democrats differ in rhetoric but govern the same when it matters most — especially on spending, the economy, immigration, and sovereignty. Worse, even when voters demand change, judicial supremacy overrides the will of the people. Unelected judges now function as super-legislators, blocking enforcement of immigration law, nullifying state authority, and shredding the Constitution — all without accountability.  As we approach the 250th anniversary of the American founding,  we are facing a crisis deeper than any election cycle — a system in which voting no longer governs the governed.

Generative AI was sold as the next industrial revolution — but what if it is doing very little good and creating much harm? Cognitive scientist and AI expert Gary Marcus joins Daniel Horowitz to expose why large language models are failing to deliver real productivity, damaging human cognition, and consuming massive amounts of capital with little return. Instead of a productivity boom, we are seeing a misallocation of capital, massive energy waste for data centers, and an internet filled with "algorithmic slop." Gary explains why LLMs are just "autocomplete on steroids" and why the promise of artificial general intelligence is failing to deliver profits. We also discuss the cognitive atrophy of the next generation, the theft of intellectual property, and why China might actually be winning by NOT destroying its education system with chatbots.

What happens when someone who grew up under Islam tells the West what it doesn’t want to hear? Former Muslim and Christian convert Danny Burmawi of the Ideological Defense Institute delivers a stark warning about mass migration, political Islam, and the future of Western civilization. Danny explains why mass Muslim migration is transforming Western societies in ways most Americans don’t understand. He bluntly warns that there is only one form of Islam and that it requires adherence to jihad. Some Muslim dictators are suppressing it in the hopes of achieving economic prosperity, but that is not trickling down to the Muslims living in the West, thanks to the subversion of Western elites allowing political Islam to operate with impunity. I also discuss my thoughts on how the Left is completely crushing Trump on immigration. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

The job numbers do not reflect how large a labor depression young workers are facing. We’re joined by labor market consultant Amanda Goodall (@thejobchick), who paints a grim picture of employment prospects in nearly every sector. She believes that offshoring and outsourcing are the real culprits. We break down why AI isn’t the real culprit, how corporations game hiring systems, and why entry-level jobs now demand years of experience that don’t exist. This conversation exposes why the American dream is collapsing for young workers — and why politicians refuse to address it. I also address Trump’s handling of the Minnesota riots and immigration standoff, explaining how federal authority collapsed, why rioters got what they wanted, and how blue states are openly defying the federal enforcement. In some perverse way, we can learn a lot from blue states on how to fight back against a future Democrat president.  Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Is the Trump administration speaking loudly but carrying a white flag? I break down why conservatives are suffering all the political liabilities of the current presidency while reaping none of the policy benefits. From the failure to codify executive orders to the endorsement of Speaker Mike Johnson (R-La.) and failure to follow through on fighting sanctuary cities and rioters, we analyze why fake executive orders and threats are worse than doing nothing. I also dive deep into the real data behind the U.S. housing market. Contrary to the "supply shortage" narrative, Redfin data shows a record 47% more home sellers than buyers in December. I explain why high interest rates and inflationary spending — not a lack of homes — are crushing affordability and why the administration might secretly want to keep prices high. Plus, a look at the AI data center" crisis threatening the U.S. power grid at a time when the grid is teetering due to a very cold winter.   Learn more about your ad choices.
