Jillian Michaels on GOP Losses, Nick Fuentes, Tucker Carlson & the 2028 Election

Jillian Michaels joins The Chicks on the Right for a brutally honest conversation about the Republican Party's future, Donald Trump, the 2028 presidential election, and the growing political divide in America. After disappointing midterm election results for Republicans, Jillian explains why she believes the warning signs were there all along. From Latino voters and young conservatives to economic frustrations and immigration policy, she breaks down what she thinks went wrong for the GOP and why Republicans could face an uphill battle in 2028. But the conversation doesn't stop there! Jillian opens up about her frustrating debate with liberal commentator Adam Mockler, why she's reconsidering conversations with political opponents, and her thoughts on controversial figures including Nick Fuentes, Hasan Piker, Tucker Carlson, Megyn Kelly, and Candace Owens. The Chicks and Jillian also discuss the next generation of conservative voters, California politics, the growing influence of political extremism, and what it will take for Republicans to win back Americans. Then things take a completely different turn! Jillian gets candid about plastic surgery, aging naturally, social media beauty standards, and the pressure young women face to change their appearances. She even shares which cosmetic procedures she's personally had done! Subscribe and stay tuned for new episodes every weekday!

Three Natural Lawyers & a Positivist Walk Into a Bar. . .

If you're old enough you may recall when the TV networks would do crossover episodes that combined two prime-time cop shows, such as New York's Cagney & Lacey teaming up with San Diego's Simon & Simon to solve a caper in Denver. Well this week the 3WHH has joined forces with the cast of the James Wilson Institute's "Natural Law Moment" podcast for our own version of a crossover. Lucretia wasn't able to join John and Steve in Washington DC this week as planned—not to worry anxious listeners; she hasn't been shipped off to a re-education camp by the new regime elected last week (not yet anyway)—so we were joined by the stalwarts of the James Wilson Institute, our old pal Hadley Arkes, and the JWI's co-director Gerry Bradley. Of course, this was all an elaborate ruse, as it was really a staged intervention to shake John Yoo of his intractable legal positivism. We recorded before a live audience, a side event from the annual lawyers convention of the Federalist Society this week. And even though we recorded in the morning with only coffee to affect our brains, you might well think we were into our second bottle of single malt from the fast-flying banter of the episode.

Nvidia & National Security, Dems Push Minimum Wage, Hamawy’s Iran Dodge | Last Call

Welcome to Last Call, a look at the biggest stories Jim and Greg covered over the past week on the 3 Martini Lunch. This week, they discuss how the poor personal and professional decisions of Nvidia's Jensen Huang may have compromised U.S. national security, Pennsylvania Gov. Josh Shapiro pushing a proven policy failure to improve the cost of living, New Jersey Dem Congressman-Elect Adam Hamawy refusing to call Iran an adversary, and D.C. Metro's ridiculous plan to raise revenue. First, they discuss the ouster of Jensen Huang as President & CEO of Nvidia. In addition to his reckless and stupid extra-marital affair with a suspect spy from the Chinese Communist Party, they they consider the national security impact from Huang's actions. Next, they shake their heads as Pennsylvania Gov. Josh Shapiro declares that he will pursue a significant hike in the state minimum wage once Democrats control both chambers of the legislature next year. Jim explains yet again why raising the minimum wage cannot make the cost of living easier and will almost certainly make things more expensive. Then, they shudder as Hamawy insists the U.S. is just as much to blame for the problems with Iran despite Iran waging war against us for 47 years. Jim unloads on Hamawy's pathetic talking points. Finally, they groan as the Washington-area public transportation system comes up withe the worst possible plan to raise more money because people just aren't paying fares on buses and trains.

S15 EP206: Hour 1 - Howard Lutnick Is Being Set Up as the Fall Guy for the Nvidia Spy Scandal, and China’s Long Game

Erick reads the coordinated Wall Street Journal and New York Times stories from Maggie Haberman, Jonathan Swan, Josh Dawsey, and Meredith McGraw and explains why the knives are coming from inside the White House: Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick is being set up as the fall guy for the Jensen Huang and Nvidia China spy scandal to insulate President Trump. He plays Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent on CNBC, saying "Commerce has the pen," predicts Elizabeth Warren will devour Lutnick in the Senate come January, and takes a call from a retired federal agent who investigated technology transfers to China in the 1990s.

S15 EP206: Hour 2 - Why Texas Republicans Got Wiped Out, and Trump’s Plan to Starve Iran and Cuba Without a War

On Open Line Friday, Erick explains why President Trump is done negotiating with Iran and is betting on economic pressure to collapse the regime, from Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent telling CNBC the death threats prove the squeeze is working to Marco Rubio tightening the oil screws on Cuba. Then Erick delivers a blistering monologue on candidate quality, arguing that Ken Paxton, Beau French, mid-decade redistricting, and a purity-test Republican Party handed Texas and Georgia to the Democrats, and that Christian voters will not be shamed into voting for bad candidates.

S15 EP206: Hour 3 - Stop Telling Young Men They Are Victims, and Why Russia Is Hiding Its War Dead

On Open Line Friday, Erick warns that both parties, from JD Vance and new White House Chief of Staff Stephen Miller to the podcast bros and the Democrats, are courting young men by telling them they are victims, and he makes the Jordan Peterson case for responsibility, engaged fathers, and church mentoring instead. Then he takes calls on permitting reform for pipelines, expanding the House of Representatives, and NATO under a future Democratic president, and reads the Politico Europe report on Russia jailing people for photographing the graves of soldiers killed in the war in Ukraine.

Democrats’ Plan to Impeach Pete Hegseth, Trump’s Iran Dilemma, and the Post-Midterm Economy

Democrats are preparing to target Pete Hegseth with impeachment efforts following their midterm election victories. The push to impeach Hegseth reveals a political double standard, argues Victor Davis Hanson on today’s edition of “Victor Davis Hanson: In His Own Words.” Hanson criticizes Democrats for pursuing investigations against Trump officials rather than addressing affordability, comparing accusations against Hegseth to military actions and controversies under previous Democrat administrations. Victor Davis Hanson and Sami Winc also examine the ongoing conflict with Iran and the surprising strength of the U.S. economy. Hanson argues that falling gas prices, rising wages, and economic growth point to a hidden economic boom that Democrats are reluctant to acknowledge. The episode also discusses Harmeet Dhillon’s resignation, the Democrats’ social media strategy during the midterms, and the future of immigration enforcement following the “blue wave” of the midterm elections.

Antisemitism Is No Longer Hiding in America | Victor Davis Hanson

A pro-Palestinian bicycle protest targeting six Jewish-owned restaurants in Philadelphia has sparked outrage, particularly because it took place on the eve of the 88th anniversary of Kristallnacht. Victor Davis Hanson draws a disturbing parallel between the Nazi persecution of Jewish businesses in 1938 and today's rising antisemitism, warning that America's political culture is becoming dangerously tolerant of hatred.

S15 EP205: Hour 1 - Jensen Huang’s Nvidia Scandal Hits Your 401(k), and Why Howard Lutnick Has to Go

Erick reacts to Jensen Huang stepping down as Nvidia CEO after an affair with a direct report suspected of being a Chinese spy, explains why the right needs to stop cheering philanderers and celebrity CEOs, and admits he bought Nvidia stock on the dip. Then he makes the case that Republicans, after losing the House and Senate in an election where 90 percent of voters called corruption a major problem, should push Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick out over Cantor Fitzgerald conflicts, the Canada trade war, and three separate times stalling President Trump's crackdown on Nvidia chips flowing to China. Plus Pete Hegseth honors the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier guard who called out his group. Jensen Huang out at Nvidia: the affair with an employee U.S.

Erick says the Republican Party has a cancer of character, starting with Vivek Ramaswamy's closing ad in the Ohio governor race that used Amy Acton's own mother against her, an ad Congressman Mike Turner now blames for his loss. He ties it to Ken Paxton's collapse in Texas, Beau French, Tucker Carlson, and Vice President JD Vance's refusal to condemn any of them, then takes calls on Abdul El-Sayed's win in Michigan, illegal immigration, ICE stops of Hispanic American citizens, and why the GOP can still win in 2028 with the right candidate.

REPORT: Liberty and Justice Without Illusions or Appeasement: Islam and the American Constitutional Order

America’s constitutional order protects religious liberty within a broadly Christian cultural inheritance. In this Special Report, we examine tensions between representative Islamic doctrines and American principles governing speech, sovereignty, and family law. Domestically, we defend equal civil rights, institutional autonomy, and accommodations for peaceful practice while supporting neutral arbitration and firm prohibitions on coercion and violations of others’ rights. Immigration policy should strictly assess risks associated with countries of origin and require applicants to affirm compliance with American laws and principles. Abroad, the United States should work with allies, including nonhostile Muslim nations, to disrupt militant Islam’s funding and isolate its ideological sources.

Free Range Podcast: Going Back to the Land – and Back to the Past

During the 1970s, childhood looked much different. Preteens, untethered to smartphones, listened to new records on turntables, wandered unsupervised in the wild, and…drove trucks and bathed in tin tubs? That was the case for 12-year-old Meghan Cox Gurdon, at least, when she was sent to live with her father on his homestead in rural Maine. Her new memoir, Free Range Girl, recounts the year she went “back to the land” – all while navigating the challenges of early adolescence. She and Chris discuss the trials and triumphs of her life on the homestead, why she views the past with charity, and how her experiences shaped her own approach to motherhood. Show Notes: Meghan’s book, Free Range Girl Meghan’s column at The Wall Street Journal Time Stamps: 1:54 – Inspiration and method 12:40 – Her father’s “back to the land” motivation 14:07 – Forgiving the past 20:00– First impressions of the homestead 26:56 – An idyllic excerpt 31:32 – The capability of children 34:14 – Friends, music, and the escapades of middle school 43:10 – The struggle to fit in 46:00 – After the first year 50:11 – Free-range parenting Opening and closing music: Brendan Benson, “Spit It Out,” used with permission from the artist.
