Later, Josh is joined by Rebeccah Heinrichs, Senior Fellow at the Hudson Institute, to discuss what she's hearing about the proposed agreement and why caution is warranted as negotiations appear to be moving forward.

Josh also takes on the Left's latest attempt at counter-programming following last night's MMA event at the White House.

Josh opens the show by breaking down the violent riots erupting in Belfast and the predictable response from the political Left. Rather than addressing the root causes of the unrest, Josh argues that the media and left-wing activists are once again working overtime to spin the story, protect their preferred narrative, and silence legitimate concerns about immigration and public safety.
Josh explains why the chaos in Northern Ireland is part of a much larger story unfolding across the Western world: the consequences of mass migration, weak borders, and political leaders unwilling to enforce immigration laws. He argues that the UK's failure to confront these issues head-on has created the conditions for the unrest now playing out in the streets.
Later, Josh turns to the latest reports surrounding a potential peace deal between the United States and Iran. With speculation growing that an agreement could be reached as soon as this weekend, Josh examines what such a deal might look like and whether Iran can be trusted to uphold its end of the bargain. He also reminds listeners that President Donald Trump has previously declared negotiations or agreements to be nearing completion, only for talks to break down later. As tensions remain high, Josh explains why skepticism may be warranted until a deal is actually signed and enforced.

Josh opens the show discussing the shocking attempted assassination of President Trump by a radical Leftist. He explains why the corporate media is once again running cover — downplaying the motive and falling back on the tired “both sides” narrative instead of confronting the extremism that fueled the attack.
Josh argues that the Democratic Party must take responsibility and clearly root out these radicals rather than allowing dangerous rhetoric and fringe actors to creep into the political mainstream.
