  • Love Hewitt shows. Stop the substitutes!

    Where are the Hugh Hewitt Shows? They are far superior to others, but they are not posted daily anymore. Three shows end of week are not timely.

  • Great show

    But don't have Ben Domenech on so much. That could laugh his way through a house fire. Just random laughing for no reason.

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

U.S. & Iran reach ceasefire deal
Q: What can be done for allies in the region if the ceasefire holds?
Maintain presence and support, reassess deterrence posture, and consider a regional security framework that leverages Ukraine-style defense technologies and close coordination with Israel and Gulf partners.
U.S. & Iran reach ceasefire deal
Q: What do you make of the ceasefire terms and whether they will hold?
The terms are not durable, and while the immediate halt to fighting is real, both sides show significant leverage and the potential for reengagement. The key is whether open straits and nuclear constraints can be maintained under ongoing pressure and diplomacy.
The Daring Rescue of a Downed Airman in Iran
Q: What does this weekend's operation imply for domestic political considerations and public sentiment?
Cotton argued that public support for hard-line objectives remains strong in certain regions, with Republicans and supporters viewing decisive action against Iran as aligning with national security interests and political messaging ahead of elections.
The Daring Rescue of a Downed Airman in Iran
Q: First, your reaction to the remarkable weekend we witnessed over the Easter weekend.
Cotton affirmed that the rescue showcased American military capability, praised the bravery of those involved, and stressed that the operation communicated a clear message to Iran while highlighting the role of intelligence agencies in enabling success.
What is an acceptable end-game for the battle with Iran?
Q: What do you think about the war with Iran and how it's going?
Overall, the military performance is outstanding, with operations advancing rapidly. The bigger question is political: how to ensure Iran cannot rebuild its nuclear and ballistic programs, while keeping regional stability and managing the energy markets that depend on the Strait of Hormuz.
