Conservative Review with Daniel Horowitz

How a Real Conservative Party Would Respond to this week’s jihad Ep 59
The voters are demanding that the political class protect our sovereignty and security. Yet, both parties are out to lunch. While Democrats are refusing to even acknowledge the problem of Islamic jihad, their opponents are unwilling to expose their willful blindness. All Republicans care about is jailbreak and other harmful or vacuous policy ideas. They continue to refuse to use the budget bill to defund Obama’s refugee program.
In this episode of the Conservative Conscience, Daniel explores the recent terror attacks through the prism of a real principled Republican Party. What would a party that is truly committed to our nation’s security do in response to this week’s jihad?
Daniel outlines a number of ideas that will protect our homeland, address the threat doctrine of the enemy, and respect the constitutional constraints. These are all common sense ideas that are not only good policy but reflect good politics as well. Many people think it will take a massive terror attack, God forbid, for the people to wake up and vote against the cultural Marxists and apologists for Islamism. The problem is even if such an event occurs and the majority of the country undergoes a catharsis, there is no political party that can capitalize on that sentiment.
“Republicans could win a landslide election if they made it a referendum on this issue alone!” Daniel declared on this week’s episode of the Conservative Conscience podcast. “Democrats are on the hook for this issue,” he continued. The people want security but neither party will give it to them.
So what would a sane Republican Party do? Well, here are some common sense ideas:
1) Ban the Muslim Brotherhood
2) Pause Refugee Resettlement
3) Allow states to block refugees
4) Strip jihadist fighters of citizenship
5) Exit-entry visa tracking
6) Build the fence (or wall, if that strikes your fancy)
7) National reciprocity for concealed carry
8) Force DHS to deport the million or so with outstanding deportation orders
9) Place restrictions and extra monitoring of travel to dangerous countries
