Rich Lowry, Editor-In-Chief of National Review, calls into the program to discuss Venezuela’s Maduro regime, which he and others describe as a narco–terrorist cartel rather than a legitimate government. The discussion expands to U.S. cities, noting how federal action has sharply reduced crime in Washington, D.C., and contrasting it with persistent violence in Chicago and Baltimore. They touch on looming government shutdown drama in Congress, with Lowry dismissing it as political theater, and debate lingering conspiracy theories around Jeffrey Epstein’s death—Lowry arguing incompetence, not murder. Toward the end, Curtis Sliwa comes up, with Lowry acknowledging his uphill climb in NYC politics but praising him as incorruptible and consistent, while noting National Review recently published an article urging support for Sliwa against Zohran Mamdani.
