The Josh Hammer Show

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. The episode ends, as always on Friday, with the signature end-of-week "Hammertime" segment.

Josh opens the show with a hard look at the U.S. Navy’s seizure of a vessel off the coast of Venezuela, unpacking what this bold move means for America’s long-term posture toward the corrupt socialist regime in Venezuela . He breaks down why Americans should care, what’s really driving this dangerous geopolitical dance, and how long the cat-and-mouse standoff between the U.S. and Venezuela can continue before it erupts into something bigger.

Josh then turns to Erika Kirk, who is courageously calling out the bad actors and online grifters spreading baseless conspiracy theories about her husband’s assassination. Josh exposes why these narratives are not only dishonest—but actively destructive to the conservative movement and the truth.

Today, Josh breaks down President Trump’s campaign swing through Pennsylvania and why the economy remains the single biggest factor heading into the 2026 midterms. Josh makes it clear: The data may show lower inflation, but if Americans don’t feel it, the White House has a real problem. 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. He warns that these results—Miami, Tennessee, Virginia, New Jersey, and beyond—are screaming red alerts for the GOP, and Republicans need to wake up fast or risk losing far more in 2026.
This is a full-throttle political reality check the Right needs to hear.

In this must-listen episode, Josh Hammer pulls no punches as he exposes the bad actors corrupting the conservative movement — including Nick Fuentes, Tucker Carlson, and the grifters cheering them on. Josh breaks down Tucker’s latest bizarre comments about buying a house in Doha, Qatar, and torches the delusion behind pretending Qatar is some kind of model society.

Josh also details Qatar’s deep ties to the Muslim Brotherhood and highlights what Florida is doing to push back against creeping sharia influence in the U.S. Then he turns to the Left, calling out Rep. Jasmine Crockett for her latest unhinged proposal on reparations — another desperate attempt to score headlines at the expense of common sense.

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.
