Fired Over Johnny The Walrus?

Daily Wire managing editor Dylan Houseman returns to Behind the Story to break down his on-the-ground reporting from James Fishback's failed Florida gubernatorial primary bid. Houseman traces how Fishback built an online following through anti-Israel, anti-AIPAC rhetoric that dog-whistled to Nick Fuentes' "Groyper" movement, then travels to two very different campaign events — a rural church rally full of ordinary populist voters barely mentioning Israel, and an election-night party packed with young out-of-state Groypers who traveled in as if on pilgrimage. Host Tim Rice and Houseman dig into what the split says about whether online extremism actually translates into electoral power, why Byron Donalds' strategy of simply ignoring Fishback may be a smarter model for Republicans dealing with provocateurs, and whether this youth energy fades with age or gets absorbed — and tempered — by the institutions these kids eventually join.

Inside the Groyper Campaign: What James Fishback's Florida Flop Reveals

A former member of an FBI task force and retired Nashville police officer is making it his mission to fortify local churches with security lessons any organization can implement. In this episode, we sit down with the founder of Agape Tactical to discuss how individuals and organizations can stop most violence before it even happens.Get the facts first with Morning Wire.

From NFL Star to Trump’s Secretary of HUD

Daily Wire Managing Editor Dylan Houseman joins DC Bureau Chief Tim Rice to unpack the growing debate over JD Vance, the 2028 Republican primary, and what happens when a political movement starts treating its next leader as inevitable. Houseman explains the argument behind his latest column, “Since When Has a Little Anointing Ever Hurt Anyone?”, and why he thinks conservatives should allow room for genuine disagreements over foreign policy, economics, religion, and the future of the Republican coalition. The conversation also explores the rise of “everything is an op” politics, the dangers of dismissing critics as foreign agents or RINOs, whether Trump’s coalition can survive without Trump at the center of it, and why a Vance succession may be far less straightforward than many Republicans assume. Plus, the wild-card possibility that Donald Trump Jr. could emerge as a serious factor in 2028.
