Summary

Townhall Review - November 23, 2024

Mark Davis, filling in for Hugh Hewitt, talks with Matt Continetti, of the Washington Free Beacon, about Trump’s aggressive approach to staffing his administration.

Kurt Schlichter, also in for Hugh, sits down with Senator-elect Jim Banks, who praises Pete Hegseth’s qualifications, calling him the reformer needed to address woke ideology in the military as Secretary of Defense.

Victor Davis Hanson analyzes New York Congresswoman Elise Stefanik's appointment as U.N. ambassador, emphasizing her strong pro-Israel stance. He highlights the deep corruption within the U.N., underscoring the need for bold reform.

Joe Piscopo asks Andrew McCarthy to explain the collapse of many legal cases against Trump. The Manhattan case under DA Alvin Bragg remains an exception but faces growing scrutiny.

Seth Leibsohn and Brandon Weichert, author of “A Disaster of Our Own Making: How the West Lost Ukraine” examine the Biden administration’s decision to greenlight strikes into Russian territory. Weichert warns of rising global tensions and highlights Netanyahu’s unyielding approach to Israel’s existential conflict, which just crossed its 1,000th day.
