This week’s CURE America with Star Parker is steered by Jonathan Alexandre, who steps in for Star to navigate through the political landscape after a major Republican electoral victory, securing the presidency and both chambers of Congress. The show provides a comprehensive analysis of the new political era.
The program kicks off with a focus on congressional leadership, spotlighting Speaker Mike Johnson’s unanimous re-election and his approach to critical legislative issues. It also examines Senate Majority Leader John Thune’s role, who is expected to encourage a more open debate and amendment process in the Senate, potentially advancing conservative policies in education and welfare reform.
Marty Dannenfelser, vice president for Government Relations at CURE, joins the show to discuss the practical implications of these leadership changes, offering insights into how they might shape the legislative agenda. Alongside him, Kris Ullman, president of Eagle Forum, provides expert commentary on the impact of these shifts on family values and educational policy.
The show features a segment with Katie Glenn Daniel of Susan B. Anthony Pro-Life America, examining the state-level pro-life movements following the Dobbs decision, highlighting the strategic importance of ballot initiatives.
Cabinet nominations under President-elect Donald Trump’s potential administration are also on the table, with speculation on roles like Mike Huckabee as U.S. Ambassador to Israel, Marco Rubio as Secretary of State, and Elise Stefanik as U.N. Ambassador, each chosen for their strong conservative credentials.
Lastly, the show discusses the future of military policy, with Pete Hegseth floated as a candidate for Secretary of Defense, aiming to refocus the military away from social agendas and back to its defense mission.
This week’s show provides viewers with a conservative lens to view these political developments, championing family values, life, and efficient governance.
