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.

Will Trump Actually Hand the GOP to JD Vance?

Celebrity Families Might Solve This

Tim Rice sits down with Daily Wire Upstream editor Madeleine Fry Schultz for a special pop-culture edition of Behind the Story. They break down the internet's biggest celebrity conversations of the moment — starting with the backlash over Ariana Grande's new "Petal" music video, where she pushes back on fans and media who've raised concerns about her weight and appearance. From there, they widen the lens to pop music's biggest names: Sabrina Carpenter's campy sex-symbol persona, Olivia Rodrigo's Lou Reed-style pivot (and her outspoken Planned Parenthood advocacy), and Hilary Duff's surprisingly wholesome comeback tour.
