Hugh Hewitt: Democrats Are Putting Our National Security at Risk

Hugh Hewitt: Democrats Are Putting Our National Security at Risk

Author: Salem Podcast Network March 26, 2026 Duration: 1:00

Some four weeks into the war with Iran, a couple of things have become clear—and both worth highlighting.

First, in undertaking this mission, President Trump fully restored the American deterrent that was forfeited by President Biden’s collapse in Afghanistan. President Trump demonstrated again the remarkable power of the American military and solidified the most important relationship with America’s most important and powerful ally — Israel.

And second, with all that clarity comes one more impossible-to-deny truth: With America involved in a battle with a terrorist regime, Democrats have repeatedly chose in vote after vote to keep the Department of Homeland Security shuttered and unfunded. That is ridiculous and wildly irresponsible.

The spectacle of the Democrats risking America to make talking points for MS-NOW audience should leave an enduring impression: The Republicans are the party of security at home and abroad. Democrats couldn't care less.
