In this episode of The Savage Nation, Michael Savage delivers a scathing assessment of the current state of the conservative movement, declaring it 'dead' due to a lack of meaningful leadership, ideological erosion, and abandonment of core principles like border security, national sovereignty, and cultural preservation. Drawing from his 2015 book *Government Zero*, Savage outlines 40 specific policy actions he believes are necessary to restore America, including closing borders for seven years, deporting illegal aliens in prison, repealing the 'anchor baby' law, making English the official language, and eliminating government employee pensions. He criticizes both major political parties for failing to act, especially under Donald Trump, whom he accuses of betraying conservative values by continuing foreign wars and failing to enforce immigration controls. Savage also condemns the influence of progressive ideology, the rise of radical Islam, and the politicization of science and media, while expressing deep concern over the normalization of anecdotal evidence in policymaking—citing Joe Rogan’s influence in the White House as emblematic of a broader cultural decline. Despite the bleak outlook, he ends with a call to hope, citing young Americans who still value patriotism and the nation’s founding ideals.
The conservative movement is dead because it has abandoned its core principles: borders, language, and culture.
A nationalist immigration policy should prioritize who immigrants are and what they contribute to America, not just how many enter.
The U.S. must close its borders for seven years to allow time for assimilation and national renewal.
Repealing the 'anchor baby' law and deporting illegal aliens in prison would reduce costs and restore national sovereignty.
The Federal Reserve’s mandate should be narrowed to focus only on a strong dollar and stable prices.
