In this double-barreled edition of the NHJournal podcast, two savvy Republican women talk about politics -- from New Hampshire's Second Congressional District to the Middle East.Morgan Ortagus is founder of Polaris National Security and a former State Department spokesperson from the Trump administration. She shares her view of the Democrats' obsession with engaging, rather than confronting, Iran -- even in the wake of the recent missile attack on Israel. Ortagus also shares what she says are the key questions New Hampshire voters should be asking candidates for Congress this year.One of those candidates is Lily Tang Williams, who discusses her views on foreign policy and how she sees the NH-02 GOP primary. "I am the frontrunner," Williams tells NHJournal.Sponsored by PerfectSmiles of Nashua.To support independent journalism at NHJournal, please click here.

Kuster's farewell to the 2024 POTUS race in the Granite State.Among the highlights:On Gov Race: "Joyce Craig might go down as the worst mayor in the history of Manchester.

God no!"On Debating Colin Van Ostern in 2016: "Like a lot of Democrat debaters, there were a lot of mistruths in there, there was a lot of emotion... as opposed to the facts and figures of good management."On 2024 POTUS Race in NH: "It's going to be competitive. I didn't think that a year ago, but there's no doubt in New Hampshire, Biden's blowing it.
