Conservative Review with Daniel Horowitz

We Need a New Party Built Upon Natural Living & Natural Markets | 12/8/25 Dec 08, 2025

Show notes

If conservatives remain trapped in the Trump-Vance GOP, they will continue to suffer all the liabilities of Big Tech venture socialism with all the political liabilities that will turn more voters into Democrats. We need a new party built upon natural living and natural markets to move away from the fake, asset-bubble economy championed by both parties, including Trump. Today, I vividly diagnose exactly how the government uses federal pensions, artificially low interest rates, public and private debt, and numerous regulatory policies to destroy the middle class and small business. The economy is analogous to an AI hallucination bubble that is like a self-licking ice-cream cone and continues to create monopolies. A new party, untethered from the GOP’s past, could crush the Democrats using this message and vision.

The Islamification of Texas Is Worse than You Think | 12/5/25 Dec 05, 2025

Show notes

We begin by reiterating the shortcomings of Trump’s immigration ban. I also tease out my concerns about the administration’s obsession with Venezuela and why it might be linked back to Qatar. And speaking of Qatar, we’re joined by Krista Schild, Texas director of the RAIR Foundation, for a riveting and frightening presentation on how deeply the Muslim Brotherhood has penetrated Texas (and other red states). From autonomous Sharia compounds and land-grabs to taxpayer-funded radical schools, criminal activity, law, and even GOP politics, Islam has infinitely more influence in red states than you realize. While President Trump and Governor Abbott (R) have issued terror designations against the Muslim Brotherhood, Krista warns that absent enforcement that leads to shutting down CAIR and banning terror finance of Islamic infrastructure, it’s tantamount to nothing more than a press release.

It Didn’t Have to Be This Way | 12/4/25 Dec 04, 2025

Show notes

So many of the right-leaning TikTokkers who foisted Trump upon us under the promise of standing for the common man are now realizing that he is doing the exact opposite. But they are forgetting that it didn’t have to be this way, even as they prepare to make the same mistake by canceling the next primary. I go back to the 2022 midterms to show how that election and its aftermath was the ultimate inflection point. We could have rebuilt the party with new faces and new policies, but Trump came back, saddled us with Kevin McCarthy, Mike Johnson, and everyone else, and now his supporters blame all those names for our woes while forgetting the top of the food chain. Next, I discuss Florida’s AI bill of rights and how it contrasts with the cronyism in the White House led by David Sacks. Imagine if we had a party with a leader who actually spoke for the people on issues related to electricity prices, land use, and parental control over chatbots rather than pimping Big Tech. After all, isn’t that what we were promised all along?

What Is Driving the Permanent Collapse of American Jobs? | 12/3/25 Dec 03, 2025

Show notes

Don’t let anyone sugarcoat the GOP underperformance in the Tennessee special election. I offer deep and broad analysis of how last night’s results fit into a clear pattern of the GOP bleeding suburban voters in a way that will result in an electoral slaughter next year. However, there is a silver lining of a red firewall to avoid a complete wipeout, but that will require Trump to change his economic message. One thing he must do is put forward a plan to reverse the hemorrhaging of American jobs. We’re joined today by Amanda Goodall, a labor market expert, who offers an in-depth analysis of why this has been the worst job market for college graduates and how she fears this is a permanent dynamic. Unlike during the Great Recession, there are so many roles being abolished. She explains how the collapse of small businesses and the rise of major corporate monopolies have allowed companies to succeed without critical talent. She believes this is much deeper than simply AI eliminating jobs. We also discuss the continued trend of outsourcing and how Trump’s decision not to cancel the H-1B program is indefensible.

Will Life Ever Be Affordable Again? | 12/2/25 Dec 02, 2025

Show notes

We begin with a sober analysis of where Republican electoral prospects stand one year past the presidential election. Republicans are facing a nightmare much worse than Democrats ever faced when they were in power because we are suffering the worst of all worlds with the affordability crisis and Trump fatigue. Next, we’re joined by macro economist and portfolio manager Craig Shapiro for a deep dive into the predominant factors causing the generational cost-of-living crisis. Shapiro believes that the only way to bring pricing down is to actually allow for the economy to slow organically and reset. The problem is that our government continues to pump up assets and push more debt, more special treatment that spawns more private debt to keep consumers on the hook for higher pricing. Meanwhile, the government is also putting all of its eggs into this AI data-center moon shot. Not only is this a risky policy, but it will basically drive people into electing more socialists like Mamdani. If we don’t present a more authentic version of capitalism, voters will turn to dark forces in their intensifying desperation.

Our Do-or-Die Moment on Muslim Immigration | 12/1/25 Dec 01, 2025

Show notes

In light of the terror attack against our National Guardsmen allegedly at the hands of a “vetted” Afghan refugee, I lay down a marker for Trump to finally fulfill his promise of a moratorium. Although he once against promised to shut off third-world migration, I go through the numbers from his 19-country list to show how he is omitting some of the countries from which we admit the most Sharia-adherent Muslims. It’s not about vetting, diplomatic relations with the sending countries, or reliable databases. I prove how you can’t vet Islamic migrants when the Sharia mindset and adherence are the bigger problem. We also go back to the 2019 attack on the Pensacola naval base to show how Trump must also fulfill his promise of arming our soldiers domestically. It appears that the Guardsmen were not carrying loaded magazines.

An AI 'Manhattan Project' to Fry the Brains of Kids with Chatbots? | 11/25/25 Nov 25, 2025

Show notes

The Trump administration has staked all its capital on pushing data centers for companies that power AI chatbots. We juxtapose this effort to the weak sauce on many other economic policies to show how the promises to stand for the common man are not being fulfilled. We’re joined by Dr. Mitch Prinstein, chief of psychology at the American Psychological Association, who warns against a moratorium on state-based AI regulations. Dr. Prinstein shares thoughts from his riveting congressional testimony on the generational harms being caused to children from the sycophantic nature of chatbots supplanting human interactions. The harms are voluminous, and the need for guardrails is undeniable. We discuss how the very tech companies that broke the internet by transforming it into a data-mining and psychological manipulation tool are now being given free rein to exacerbate every existing mental health crisis among children. He ends by offering a list of ideas for states to pursue, ideas that other countries are already pursuing, as our government focuses only on the Big Tech companies.

A Year Later, We’re Left with Nothing but Failure | 11/24/25 Nov 24, 2025

Show notes

This is the nightmare scenario: incurring all the policy and political liabilities of GOP control while all the initial promises — from the DOGE and health care reform to immigration restriction and American jobs — are disintegrating. One of the big reasons why we are failing on immigration is because we refuse to fight the premise of judicial supremacism. We’re joined today by Mat Staver, founder of Liberty Counsel, for a discussion about recent egregious court cases shredding our biblical and constitutional values. Mat is defending a mother in Maine after a state court ordered her daughter, at the behest of the girl’s father, to divest from all contact with church or religious material. Mat also discusses how even the conservative judges are extremely political and refused to overturn Obergefell in the Kim Davis case. He believes that states need to force the issue by directly contradicting Obergefell in the same way they did with abortion. Finally, we discuss how the only authority of courts comes from the respect of the people and the other branches. If we are to believe that every decision is the unquestionable "law of the land," then there is no way to dig our way out of this tyranny. You cannot comply your way out of judicial supremacism.

When Incumbent Republicans Blame Their Failures on Past, Irrelevant Figures | 11/21/25 Nov 21, 2025

Show notes

There is a new trend for GOP officials like JD Vance to blame the failures on the GOP of the past while artfully ignoring that they have the power to change things right now. In fact, Trump and his circle have been in power for five consecutive election cycles and own all of the down-ballot endorsements and policies. They keep dredging up Mike Pence, George Bush, and David French as bogeymen, but when you look carefully, they are ensuring that the same policies continue under our banner without receiving the blame. Through this thesis, I take you through the latest news on data centers, immigration, foreign policy, and the courts to show how the very people who fail us get to live another day by deflecting the blame onto those out of power.

Why Trump Is the Biggest Globalist of All Time | 11/20/25 Nov 20, 2025

Show notes

The opposite of globalism is localism. Trump is now working with Big Tech and foreign adversaries to crush conservative rural America with data centers. Trump wants to use DOJ resources to sue states protecting landowners. This is the most devastating form of globalism. Even crazier is the fact that Democrats are now outflanking him and harnessing a populist message on behalf of landowners and the average Joe by tying Trump corruption to his Big Tech policies driving up costs. They are even starting to outflank him on foreign worker visas. The well-fed Right knows he is a problem but is too cowardly to effectively fight him. Meanwhile, rightists are starting the cycle all over again by drowning out debate and a potential primary in order to promote JD Vance, who has the same problematic policies on Big Tech. We close by focusing on foreign policy and how Trump’s obsession with Qatar and Gaza is also more about family business ties than ideology — quintessential globalism if we’ve ever seen it.
