Foreign. I'm Josh Hammer and this is the Josh Hammer Show. The Viceroy Mike Davis joins us later in the program to talk about the need for justice and accountability. Is justice coming? Lots else to get to. On today's show, the redistricting fallout continues all across the country. Louisiana is going to postpone their primaries. And what other, what other things might happen when it comes to a lot of these districts that the Supreme Court just said might not pass constitutional muster? Plus all sorts of other developments when it comes to the Middle east and a broader conversation playing out when it comes to this bizarre, bizarre pagan alliance that you see creeping up in certain parts of the so called riot. It's a busy day here on the Josh Hammer show, so make sure to buckle in. I want to talk about accountability. This is a topic that we don't typically talk about because it's not often in the news cycle, but it is a very important concept that is always lurking in the background. If you care about justice, if you care about the rule of law, and we on this show care about nothing, if we don't care about justice and the rule of law, then you simply must care about accountability. Frankly, if you subscribe to something even remotely approximating the biblical worldview, if you are a Jew or a Christian, you probably believe in the concept of accountability too. Someone should have to answer for all that he does in this world, whether it is for good or whether it is for bad. Typically when you are not held accountable, when there is not justice that is meted out, when there is not a reward for a good deed, or whether when there's not a punishment for a bad deed, that is typically when a society starts to go off the rails, that is typically when anarchy starts to crop up, the rule of law tends to disintegrate. And perhaps even more relevant for present purposes, that is when public trust in the system, in the government, in the institutions, in the elites starts to crumble. I've been asked many times in recent years why I think it is that we live in such a conspiracy minded age. Why, among other things, has there been such a pronounced increase in the world's most ancient form of bigotry, hatred of the Jewish people. And the reason for that is not necessarily first and foremost due to foreign policy or due to foreign aid or anything like that. Perhaps there was a conversation to be had there. In fact there probably is. But the number one reason, the number one reason that we live in such an age is that there has now been an unmitigated stream of horrific incidents perpetrated against the American people that have left the American people desperately, desperately craving justice and accountability. In short, there have now been a tremendous number of gaslighting operations hoisted upon we the people. And we the people are craving for answers. We are craving to see some bad deeds go punished. In my personal telling of this tale, I actually started as far back as Russiagate, as far back as the 2016 presidential election. Recall what happened back then. The Hillary Clinton campaign worked hand in glove with the a discredited former British spy by the name of Christopher Steele to create the so called Steele dossier. That seal dossier was bought and paid for by the Hillary Clinton campaign. It was laundered through the Tony White shoe left wing law firm Perkins Coie in order to get the narrative out there, a narrative that you can still hear today if you tune over to CNN or to Ms. Now or some other left wing network. This notion that Donald Trump is a Manchurian Candidate, that he acts on behalf of Russia, that was a tremendous, tremendous hoax. A hoax that ultimately resulted in in the fabricated intelligence community assessment during the transition period, ultimately getting us the Mueller probe that swallowed up half of the first Trump presidency. How about the year 2020 when it comes to lack of accountability? 2020 was quite a year, wasn't it? 2020 was the year of COVID And the inexplicable reaction to Covid when it came to the masking, when it came to the vaccine mandates, when it came it came to lockdowns, whole children completely deprived of the years of social interactions, years of classroom education. In reality, we will not know the full repercussions of what happened in 2020 for decades. That's not even getting into the weeds here. The notion back then that Jews or Christians congregating for prayer could be a public health hazard. But in the aftermath of the death of St. George Floyd, our martyr, that Black Lives Matter could congregate to the hundreds of thousands and they would be giving a public health exception because they were fighting quote unquote systemic racism. Later that Same year in 2020, we had the election and there was a lot of questions still remaining about that election today. When it comes to the role of big tech, when it comes to the role of the 51 deep state spooks who immediately discredit the Hunter Biden laptop as so called Russian disinformation, guess what? It wasn't. The US Government actually used that laptop as evidence when they prosecuted Hunter Biden two years ago on gun charges. That was the case in Delaware. You could fast forward even even further to the Joe Biden administration where Joe Biden and Merrick Garland and so called special counsel Jack Smith, so called because he was actually illegitimately appointed, how all three of them decided to prosecute, to persecute, to try to incarcerate, to try to bankrupt by any means necessary, the former and at that point, future President Donald J. Trump. These are various scandals and I could go on this list does not end there. These are scandals for which we the people do not have clear answers. And the more that you don't get answers, that you don't get justice, that you don't get accountability, as I already said, things start to go awry. A free people loses their ability to trust anything. And if that continues and it exacerbates and it worsens, you eventually lose any sense of basic objective morality itself. You lose your ability to distinguish right from wrong, fact from fiction, truth from lies, up from down. If you want to understand why we are living in the age that we are in, it is due fundamentally to lack of accountability and lack of justice for various massive gaslighting operations and outright societal scandals that have been perpetrated against a free people. Lawfare, of course, is a big component of this. We're getting to that and much more with Mike Davis, our guest, after a break. But for now, folks, before we talk about some other topics as well, I also want to tell you about our sponsor for today's show, which is Balance of Nature. You know, we talk on the show a lot about getting back to basics, faith, family foundations that actually work. Nutrition should be the same way.

Balanceofnature.com now we're going to get back into this conversation about accountability after our upcoming break with Mike Davis. But I also do want to update you on what's happening from a redistricting perspective. So we talked at great length this week about the redistricting wars. My syndicated column actually out this morning. Go ahead and check it out at Newsweek, Real Clear Politics, all sorts of Salem media properties, including Town hall and PJ Media as well. So go ahead and enjoy my call. My column is very much on the redistricting issue and in the aftermath of the Louisiana case at the nation's high score, there are already immediate, immediate repercussions. So Jeff Landry, the governor in Baton Rouge in Louisiana, the governor of that state has already announced the state's upcoming congressional primaries which were said for May 16, that that will actually be delayed. Why? Well, Louisiana was a party to the Supreme Court case and the Supreme Court just said that you that their maps are unconstitutional as we've explained on the show, because they explicitly took race into account and now you know you can't do that. So Louisiana is actually already delaying its maps. These so called majority minority districts which are predominantly, not so easily, but predominantly in the American south, all across south frankly from Louisiana, Mississippi all the way to the Carolinas, these seats have to go. Why? Very simple. Because we don't live any systemically racist country and black people can get elected to Congress without having to carve out a so called majority minority district. In fact, if you look at the black Congressmen in the U.S. house today, the majority of them, not even plurality, a majority of them do not come from these gerrymandered so called majority minority seats. Most of them come from majority white seats. So Louisiana is going to have to redistrict. Will other Southern states have to redistrict ASAP as well? Well, Speaker Mike Johnson was actually asked about this yesterday while he was walking around the Capitol. He said that, yes, some of these other states should actually redraw their maps to be in line with the Supreme Court's opinion before their primaries this year. So be on the lookout for that. For what it's worth, Brian Kemp of Georgia seems not particularly inclined to do that. Not surprising. Guy's a fairly moderate figure there. Other Southern states might follow. I was personally quite surprised indeed. I was actually distraught, frankly, to see one of my senators here in Florida cast some shade, let's say, on Florida's big redistricting, which just passed our legislature and could be signed into law by a governor at frankly, any given moment. Let's go ahead and actually watch this from Senator Rick Scott, who was throwing some shade on Florida's maps with Kaitlan Collins of CNN yesterday. Let's go ahead and watch. We've seen the governor there delaying some of the state's House primaries after the Supreme Court's decision invalidating that congressional map that they have. If you are still governor, would you feel comfortable suspending primaries if people were already voting? Caitlin, I didn't see that. I mean, I don't know enough about exactly what they're doing in Louisiana to. But shoot, I want people to vote. I mean, I want things to be fair. I always told people, I'd love you to vote for me, but go vote. So I mean, all this stuff where the redistricting, where Democrats are great, it's all great if it goes on in Virginia where there's no Republican seats hardly left. But if someplace else they attack it, I mean, I think we ought to say, look, what we don't, what we don't want, we don't want anybody disenfranchised. We want everybody to vote, all right, and let everybody get their message out and stop playing games. Just absolute flaming garbage on air from Rick Scott there. I don't know what he is doing. He's a former guest on the show. I don't want to criticize him too tough there. But frankly, Rick Scott is, is letting his emotions get the better of him. He does not like Ron DeSantis, his successor in Tallahassee. This is ridiculous, absolutely ridiculous there. Florida's maps will pass. The Supreme Court has essentially already bestowed its legitimacy on Florida's maps. There many Republicans who are willing to get their hands dirty and fight when it comes to redistricting, not those who are going there to go along to get along when it comes to the nation's capital. Well, someone who is definitely not in the nation's capital to go along to get along is our next guest, Mike Davis, who joins us after a short commercial break. Steer this. We'll be right back with Mike Davis. I drive my bus in a busy city. That's why road safety is so important to me. I know that I must slow down and be extra careful when I make a wide turn. Buses need more room than cars. Everyone can help keep our roads safe. Next time you're driving, remember to give buses plenty of time and space to finish turning before driving ahead. Let's all plan to share the road safely. Learn how at www.sharetheroadsafely.gov. welcome back. So in our opening minutes of our show today, we're talking about accountability and, frankly, lack thereof, at least when it comes to a lot of pressing issues facing the American people. And there's really no one better to bring on when it comes to the need for accountability and the need for justice more generally than Mike Davis, AKA the Viceroy. You know Mike from his ubiquitous presence all across conservative media. He's also my colleague at Article 3 Product. He's the founder and president of that great organization. Mike Davis joins us now. So, my friends, thank you for joining us as always. I wanna bring you on, Mike, because we teed off today's conversation on the show by really going back at least as far back, frankly, as Russiagate and then through all the COVID garbage and Bob Mueller, the lawfare against Donald Trump, which you, of course, were intimately involved with. I think the more that a lot of these instances go by and there is a lack of accountability, the American people just start to get more wired and wired and it gins up tensions there. It's generally not good. Justice and accountability, I think, is something fundamentally that a free society needs here. So can you assess the state as to how we're doing right now in the second Trump term when it comes to this? Obviously, the recent indictment of Jim Comey, I think, factors into this. How do you see our progress on this front?
