Lindsay Graham, Mitch McConnell, Iran and The Future of the GOP with Rep Craig Goldman

The House just advanced the SAVE America Act — but could it actually change how America votes? What’s the plan in Iran? And what’s the future of the GOP?
In this episode of The Brief: Insights From The Inside, Shabbos Kestenbaum sits down with Rep. Craig Goldman, representative for Texas’s 12th congressional district and co-chair of the House Abraham Accords Caucus, to break down the biggest issues facing Congress right now: the SAVE America Act, voter ID, election security, the future of conservatism, Iran, Israel, and the Abraham Accords.

Rep. Goldman explains why he supports requiring ID to vote, why he believes election integrity is “common sense,” and what the future of the SAVE America Act could look like in the Senate. He also reacts to the passing of Sen. Lindsey Graham, concerns about Mitch McConnell’s health, the debate over term limits, and what generational change could mean for the future of the Republican Party.

– Why Goldman says October 7th was directly incentivized by Iran to derail the Saudi-Israel normalization deal — and what the future of that deal looks like now

– The Abraham Accords: what they’ve achieved, which countries are next, and why Goldman calls it “changing the world”

– The Gaza hostage deal — and why Goldman says Witkoff and Kushner have proven every skeptic wrong

– Campus antisemitism: Goldman’s argument that it’s fundamentally a failure of education, not ideology

Congressman Craig Goldman represents Texas’s 12th congressional district and is co-chair of the House Abraham Accords Caucus.
