The Josh Hammer Show

With a packed news cycle, Josh opens the show with the latest developments involving Iran, as the military blockade of the Strait of Hormuz enters its second day. Josh breaks down where things stand with the ongoing peace talks and the many moving pieces shaping the situation.
Josh is then joined by Lee Smith, writer for Tablet Magazine and author of The China Matrix, to discuss Iran and what it will take to know when the job there is truly complete. Smith also offers insight into how Iran’s military is responding to the war.
Later, Josh reacts to a bombshell report from the Department of Justice regarding biased enforcement of the FACE Act by the Biden administration against pro-life activists. Josh explains why the revelations matter and how conservatives should respond.
