Wednesday, November 5, 2025
Josh Hammer lights into the results from New York, Virginia, and New Jersey, breaking down what they really say about the state of the Republican Party and where the movement goes next. He argues that the results were predictable — and that the GOP’s refusal to adapt could cost them big heading into 2026.
Josh also torches the lazy talking point that New York is “a city of immigrants,” explaining why today’s immigration wave looks nothing like the one that built America’s backbone. Then he digs into the Supreme Court’s high-stakes battle over President Trump’s tariffs, exposing what’s truly on the line for America’s sovereignty, economy, and strength on the world stage.
