He closes the show with a look at the turmoil in college sports, breaking down why some of the biggest stories dominating headlines are deeply troubling—and why meaningful reform may be nearly impossible now that legalized sports gambling is entrenched.

Tue, 13 Jan 2026 - 455 - Iranian Regime on the Brink
As tensions escalate in Iran, Josh breaks down what may come next for the United States. He calls out the bad actors attacking the Iranian protest movement and explains why he would not have used the specific “red line” language President Trump invoked. Josh also covers the antisemitic attack on a Mississippi synagogue over the weekend and explains why the Left’s response has been entirely predictable—while reminding listeners that conservatives must police the bad actors on their own side when it comes to antisemitism.
Josh then turns to the ongoing debate over foreign aid, arguing that the obsession with the issue is often misplaced—even though he believes the U.S. should seriously evaluate reducing foreign aid overall. He closes with a discussion of the latest developments involving the DOJ and the Federal Reserve, emphasizing the need to remember that the Fed is not an independent agency, despite popular belief.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Today, Josh addresses the nationwide protests and lawlessness sparked by the fatal shooting of a woman by an ICE agent during a federal enforcement operation in Minneapolis, which has ignited demonstrations in multiple cities.

Josh then shifts to foreign policy, breaking down why the Trump Administration’s continued discussions about purchasing Greenland are not as far-fetched as critics claim, and why the idea makes strategic sense.
He also covers the escalating protests in Iran, what they mean for U.S. interests, and why the president is right to monitor the dangerous situation as demonstrations continue to build in intensity.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Wed, 07 Jan 2026 - 451 - America First Empire?
Today, Josh breaks down the latest developments surrounding Nicolás Maduro and what his removal means for President Trump’s America First foreign policy doctrine.

Josh also lays out why he believes NATO is outdated in its current form and explains the broader strategic context behind Trump’s warnings to both Greenland and Iran.

Tue, 06 Jan 2026 - 450 - Maduro Is OUT—Now What?
Today, Josh breaks down the stunning move by the Trump administration to remove Nicolás Maduro and his wife from Venezuela and bring them to New York City. He explains why this action is far from unprecedented and why the idea of “international law” is more myth than reality. Josh digs into what this means for America’s long-term strategic interests—especially when it comes to oil and energy abroad. He also calls out the pundits and politicians now scrambling with egg on their face after the raid, highlighting the Left’s blatant hypocrisy in real time.
Josh closes the show with major political news out of Minnesota, where Gov. Tim Walz has announced he will not seek a third term—just as fraud allegations involving Somali-run daycares continue to spiral across the state.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
Mon, 05 Jan 2026 - 449 - The Mamdani Apocalypse and Josh’s 2026 Wish List
Josh Hammer pulls no punches in blasting the newly sworn in democratic socialist mayor of NYC, Zohran Mamdani. Josh explains how Mamdani's praise of the "warmth of collectivism" has terrifying historical connotations, given the totalitarian horrors of the 21st century. Josh then explains why 2025 was actually an excellent year in both domestic politics and global affairs, contrary to the over-abundance of media hysteria suggesting the opposite. Finally, Josh offers his 2026 political wish list, encompassing global affairs, the economy, pending Supreme Court cases, and more.

Tue, 30 Dec 2025 - 447 - Somali Fraud Scandal EXPLODES
Today, Josh tears into the exploding fraud scandal in Minnesota, where staggering sums of taxpayer money have allegedly been siphoned off by Somali networks—and yet, shockingly, much of the media can’t be bothered to cover it. He breaks down the jaw-dropping numbers, the political cowardice surrounding the story, and what this corruption says about the system failing ordinary Americans.
Josh then turns to President Trump’s decisive airstrike in Nigeria targeting radical Islamist groups that have been slaughtering Christians. He explains what this bold move reveals about Trump’s foreign policy doctrine—and why it stands in stark contrast to the hand-wringing we’ve seen from past administrations.
Josh closes with the latest on Trump’s push for a peace deal between Ukraine and Russia and his meeting with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu—laying out what these moves signal about the administration’s broader strategy on the world stage.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

On today’s jam-packed show, Josh breaks down the president’s primetime address—what he thought the president got right, and the key points he believes were missing.

Josh then gives the latest on the Brown University murders and the increasingly botched investigation into finding the suspect.

Thu, 18 Dec 2025 - 441 - Ivy League Incompetence? Or Murder Cover-Up?
Today, Josh unleashes on the chaos unfolding at Brown University, where the hunt for a double-murder suspect has turned into a masterclass in incompetence. From university leadership to law enforcement, Josh breaks down how every level of authority seems to be bungling this case in real time.

On today’s show, Josh dives into the horrific terror attack in Australia and tears apart the Left’s knee-jerk calls for gun control—arguing they completely miss the real threat staring us in the face. He breaks down why the warning signs for an attack like this were obvious to anyone willing to look. Josh then turns to Brown University, where two people were murdered over the weekend, and explains why the same tired gun-control rhetoric won’t save anyone there either—especially with the suspect still on the loose. Finally, Josh responds to Megyn Kelly’s recent on-air swipe at him and exposes what her attack really reveals about her priorities and worldview.
See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
Mon, 15 Dec 2025 - 438 - Don’t Go Wobbly on China
Josh Hammer unpacks the decades-long rise of Communist China and explains why President Trump cannot now go wobbly when it comes to confronting and containing this preeminent civilizational foe. On the contrary, it must be all hands on deck for the United States to prevail in the China challenge. Beijing cannot be appeased—it must be defeated in every way other than the actual military battlefield itself.
Josh also blasts Indiana Republicans for their failed redistricting effort, explains the latest twists and turns in the roiling Somali fraud scandal, unpacks why the terrorist Syrian leadership still cannot be trusted, and more.

He lays out what the president must do to regain voter confidence and rebuild momentum on the economic front.
Josh then pivots to the stunning outcome in the Miami mayoral race, where a Democrat won for the first time in thirty years.

Tue, 09 Dec 2025 - 434 - Titanic Trump Showdowns at SCOTUS
On today’s show, Josh Hammer breaks down the Supreme Court’s decision to take up the birthright citizenship case, explaining why this is a debate America must have — and why President Trump may have far stronger legal footing than the media wants to admit. Josh walks through the real history behind the 14th Amendment, revealing how the Civil Rights Act of 1866 is the key to understanding what “subject to the jurisdiction thereof” actually meant to the framers.
Josh then turns to another major case being argued before the Court today — a fight he says is fundamentally about government expansion versus constitutional limits. He lays out why Trump is right to push back against Washington’s ever-growing control and how this legal battle could reshape the federal government’s power for years to come.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
Mon, 08 Dec 2025 - 433 - The Media LIED About Hegseth’s "Kill Order"
Josh Hammer explains why yesterday's closed-door hearing on Capitol Hill confirms that the corporate media lied about Secretary of War Hegseth issuing a "kill order" on a narco-terrorist boat in the Caribbean Sea in early September. He didn't, as yesterday's testifying Navy admiral confirmed. In reality, the administration is simply acting to defend the American homeland and the American people—much as it is also doing when it comes to its immigration enforcement operations.
Josh also breaks down the week's major legal updates—namely, the long-overdue arrest of the infamous D.C. pipe bomber and the huge Supreme Court victory for the State of Texas and House Republicans on the question of the Lone Star State's controversial newly redrawn congressional map. Josh also zooms out and explains what the GOP must do to forestall carnage at the ballot box come 2026—and perhaps 2028 as well. He ends, as always on Fridays, with our "Hammertime" segment.

Fri, 05 Dec 2025 - 432 - The Left Abandons Climate Change Hysteria
Josh Hammer explains how "climate change" alarmism, which not so long ago was all the rage on the activist Left, has all but died as a political force. Why is that? Josh unpacks all the angles. But any which way one can approach it, the climate change jig is now up with the American people—and even for many leftist elites and elected Democrats themselves.
Also, Josh reviews the latest twists and turns in the ongoing Minnesota Somali fraud fallout story and explains why everyone on the Right must sober up when it comes to Islam and immigration. This includes purportedly "America First" pundits, such as Tucker Carlson, who drape themselves in the American flag while serving as useful idiots for sharia supremacism and anti-Western subjugation.
See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
Thu, 04 Dec 2025 - 431 - The Left’s ‘War Criminal’ Smear and the Escalating Islam Debate
Josh Hammer explains again why Secretary of War Pete Hegseth is not a "war criminal," as the Left has ludicrously been suggesting. Why are leftists pushing this lie so hard? Hint: It has nothing to do with Hegseth himself or his actions, and everything to do with undermining President Trump's agenda every which way they possibly can.
Josh also tackles the latest silly controversy over President Trump's harsh words on Somali immigrants, unpacks yesterday's Tennessee special election and crucial First Amendment case argued at the Supreme Court, and discusses last night's inspiring PragerU gala at Mar-a-Lago. If America seeks to turn around its various social maladies, there is perhaps nothing more important than inspiring young men and women and filling them with hope and gratitude.

Wed, 03 Dec 2025 - 430 - The Truth on Trump's Tariffs
Today, Josh Hammer breaks down the stakes of a major special election in Tennessee, asking whether Democrats actually have a shot at flipping a deep-red seat — and what that would signal heading into 2026. Josh then updates listeners on the Russia–Ukraine peace talks being facilitated by the United States and what the latest developments mean for global stability.
Next, Josh torches the Left’s ongoing witch hunt against Pete Hegseth over a drug-boat strike earlier this year, exposing how critics are twisting the facts to score political points. Finally, Josh is joined by Oren Cass, Chief Economist at American Compass, to dig into the one issue that will define the next election: the economy. Cass explains why inflation is dramatically lower than when President Trump took office, how messaging — not numbers — drives voter perception, and why tariffs play a far smaller role in consumer prices than the media wants you to believe.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
Tue, 02 Dec 2025 - 429 - ANOTHER Islamist Terrorist Attack
On today’s show, Josh Hammer breaks down the horrific terror attack that struck the day before Thanksgiving — and why it’s a direct consequence of reckless, wide-open immigration policies. Josh demands urgent action to fully vet every Afghan refugee brought in under the Biden administration and calls for a temporary pause on all migration until we actually know who is entering the country.
Josh then turns to the week’s major geopolitical development: the U.S. striking narco-terrorist boats in international waters. He explains why the attacks were legally justified, pointing to a 1936 Supreme Court case that strongly backs the legality of decisive action against foreign criminal threats.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
Mon, 01 Dec 2025 - 428 - Josh Hammer & Charles Murray: Faith, Reason, and America Today

Murray discusses his decades-long journey from agnosticism to a renewed belief in God — and ultimately toward Christianity.

Wed, 26 Nov 2025 - 427 - The Great Anti-Trump Sabotage

Next, Josh examines a potential breakthrough in Russia–Ukraine peace talks, offering his take on what it means for America and the world. And finally, he weighs in on Marjorie Taylor Greene’s announcement that she will be stepping down in early January—and what her departure signals for the future of the Right.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
Tue, 25 Nov 2025 - 426 - Foreign Ops and Info Ops
Josh Hammer analyzes Elon Musk's game-changing attempt to reveal foreign operators on X before giving us his hot take on the ultimate foreign operator, the Muslim Brotherhood—and why Trump finally looks set to declare it a foreign terrorist organization. Josh also explains why Qatar, the 21st-century financial and ideological home of the Brotherhood, can no longer have it both ways when it comes to relations with the U.S. Josh is then joined by Luke Moon, executive director of the Philos Project, for a can't miss-conversation about why these latest sinister attempts to divide American Christians and Jews is bound to fail. Luke explains the fallacy of "Christian" arguments against Israel and the Jewish people, as well as why he is optimistic for the future of this all-important alliance.

Mon, 24 Nov 2025 - 425 - What Is an American?
Josh opens the show by breaking down the chaos unfolding in Dearborn, Michigan over the past month—from nonstop protests to openly anti-American rhetoric coming from the mayor, and even “death to America” chants echoing through the streets. He explains why this moment should alarm every citizen who believes in the American way of life.
Josh then turns to a historic anniversary many have forgotten: the start of the Nuremberg Trials on November 20, 1945. He revisits the legal principles that emerged from those trials, what true justice looked like in the shadow of Nazi atrocities, and what lessons we must fight to preserve today. Finally, he calls out the bad actors trying to blur the definition of “Nazi” for political gain—and why that dangerous distortion needs to be confronted head-on.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
Fri, 21 Nov 2025 - 424 - Brandon Tatum on the REAL Source of MAGA Infighting
Today, Josh is joined by Brandon Tatum, host of The Officer Tatum Show, for a powerful conversation about the life and legacy of Charlie Kirk. Tatum speaks passionately about Charlie’s impact, his leadership, and why he refuses to stay silent as certain voices on the Right try to divide the movement Charlie helped build.
The two also confront the conspiracy theories surrounding Charlie’s death, with Tatum making it clear: asking reasonable questions is healthy, but quickly jumping to conclusions is reckless.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
Thu, 20 Nov 2025 - 423 - Are Dems Stoking an INSURRECTION?
Today, Josh takes aim at former Deep State Democrats now turned U.S. Senators who claimed on X that disobeying orders from the president is not only acceptable—but may be necessary. Josh explains why this rhetoric isn’t “resistance” or “activism” but yet another attempt by the Left to incite an insurrection in plain sight.
He then breaks down Tuesday’s major ruling against Texas’s redistricting map, explaining what the decision means for Republicans heading into the midterms. Josh also tackles the growing crisis of legalized sports betting, arguing that its rapid spread is harming young men and fueling a serious cultural and societal decline.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Tue, 18 Nov 2025 - 421 - Trump’s Big Epstein Flip and the Right’s Crazy Caucus
Josh Hammer opens the show by tearing into the media circus surrounding the Jeffrey Epstein files, exposing how the story has become more about political theater than truth. He explains why endless speculation and conspiracy chasing are distractions from real accountability — and why the obsession with Epstein says more about the media and public appetite for outrage than it does about justice.
Josh also dives into President Trump’s latest comments on tariff rollbacks, breaking down which moves make sense and which could backfire on American workers. He then calls out the weekend’s media hit piece targeting him and other conservative hosts, pulling no punches on the website's smear tactics. Finally, Josh weighs in on Trump’s split with Marjorie Taylor Greene — and why his follow-up comments regarding Tucker Carlson lost sight of the bigger issue we are facing.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
Mon, 17 Nov 2025 - 420 - A 50-YEAR Mortgage???
On today’s show, Josh Hammer takes on President Trump’s latest proposals, including a 50-year mortgage plan and expanded H-1B visas.
